I saw that the things in the second burden were indeed very strange, they were actually two things that looked like fruits, the first fruit was oblate, half a car, and the skin was rough yellow, Zhao Yan recognized at a glance that this thing was a very common pumpkin in later generations. As for the second fruit, it is much smaller, only the size of a human fist, and its appearance is bright red, which looks very cute, and it is a tomato that looks like a fruit, but is actually a vegetable.

Seeing these two familiar vegetables, Zhao Yan couldn't believe it, because whether it was pumpkin or tomatoes, none of them were native to the Central Plains, but plants from Central and South America, which were later transmitted to the Central Plains during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it was precisely because of this that Zhao Yan was so surprised when he saw these two fruits.

"Where did the pumpkins and tomatoes come from?" Zhao Yan exclaimed in surprise, he never expected to see these two fruits here, and they were sent by Princess Bao'an.

"The second sister and the third sister mentioned it in the letter, you can read it yourself!" Zhao Ji pointed to some channels.

Zhao Yan immediately found the letter of Princess Bao'an and Princess Shoukang in the letter in the box, and soon saw the origin of these two things on a letter, it turned out that Zhao Yan brought some vegetable seeds when he crossed, so Zhao Yan also deliberately found Zhuangtou Wang Qi to identify, but the other party recognized most of the seeds, only two but could not recognize them, this year Wang Qi planted, and the result was that these two kinds of fruits were born, Princess Bao'an They tasted it and it tasted good, so they took advantage of the winter to send some.

"Originally, the second sister sent a lot, and the big one tasted good. I left one for you, the little one was so sour that I tasted one and didn't eat it again, but most of the rest were bad, and only these few remained. Zhao Ji finally pointed to the pumpkin and tomatoes in the baggage, he liked the taste of pumpkin very much, it was sweet and floury when cooked, but he didn't like the sour taste of tomatoes.

However, Zhao Yan looked at the pumpkin and tomatoes in the baggage, then looked at the letter in his hand, and finally looked up and asked Zhao Yan, "That's not right." The third sister said in the letter that she also sent me a lot of chili powder. Why is it gone now? ”

"Ahem~, this ......" Hearing Zhao Yan ask about chili peppers, Zhao Yan coughed a little embarrassedly and said, "The winter in Hebei is much colder than in Tokyo City." I think that chili powder makes people sweat after eating it. So I accidentally ate it all. But the third sister said that there are still a lot of them in Tokyo, and you can send me some when you go back! ”

Zhao Yan was also a little speechless when he heard this, but he didn't expect Zhao Yan to have a cheeky side. After eating up the chili peppers that Princess Shoukang sent to herself, she still had the face to ask for herself, but this is the expression that a prince of a country should have, as an emperor, not only must know how to handle government affairs, but also have the momentum of eating people with a mouth that is not short, and taking people is not soft, which is also one of the common characteristics of all Ming monarchs in history.

It was not early, Zhao Yan took his things back to his cabin, and as soon as he entered, he saw that in addition to Yelusi, bones and Gu Tianjie's father and daughter were also in the cabin, and when he saw Zhao Yan coming in, Gu Tianjie immediately said: "King of the county, Gu has been waiting for a long time." ”

Seeing that Gu Tianjie's father and daughter were there, Zhao Yan understood the reason after a little thought, and said to Gu Tianjie with a smile: "Mr. Gu came here today, I'm afraid he also wanted to ask me why I killed them, right?" ”

"Yes, at the beginning, I was very disappointed with the county king's approach, but then I thought that the county king is not a reckless person, since he did this, he must have his own reason, but I can't figure it out anyway, and I can't even sleep if I want to, so I visited late at night, and I hope the county king won't blame!" Gu Tianjie also immediately spoke.

However, although his words were polite, there was also a hint of blame in his tone, Zhao Yan had the grace of knowing him, and he also promised to cure his illness, which made Gu Tianjie rekindle hope, and even thought about assisting Zhao Yan to do a career, and it was not impossible to finally ascend to the throne of the Great Song Dynasty, but now that Zhao Yan is doing this, not to mention anything else, he must have no chance with the throne, after all, the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty will not let such a reckless prince be the emperor.

Now it's almost the second watch, Gu Tianjie still let the bones push him here, so you can see how anxious he is in his heart, Zhao Yan is also a little helpless about this, so he had to tell the reason for persuading Zhao Ji just now, and finally said to Gu Tianjie: "Mr. Gu, you have lived in Wanyan for many years, and you must know the Jurchens better than me, according to your opinion, if the Jurchens get the assistance of our Great Song Dynasty, will they be like a tiger with wings, with the strength of the Liao State, can they still curb their rise?" ”

After listening to Zhao Yan's words, Gu Tianjie also fell silent, he knew better than anyone about the strength of the Jurchens, but he always thought that the Jurchens were a plate of scattered sand, and the strongest Wanyan Department was only a few thousand troops, so there was nothing to worry about, but he didn't think that if the Wanyan Department got the assistance of the Great Song Dynasty, the strength skyrocketed, so as to unify the Jurchens, although it would bring big trouble to the Liao State, and even set up a strong enemy for the Later Great Song Dynasty, and compared with the Khitans who had been sinicized, the Jurchens were even more barbaric. In the event of the fall of the Liao State, the threat to the Great Song Dynasty was even greater.

Thinking of this, Gu Tianjie finally sighed and said: "The county king has thought so far-reaching, which really makes Gu admire, but there are many ways to destroy this alliance, why does the county king have to use such a drastic method?" ”

"Haha, I didn't think about it so much in a hurry at the time, and when we finished the face, we were also harassed by the impeacher, so when we saw him tied up in front of us, I was dizzy with anger for a while, so I stabbed him, and now that I think about it, I am really a little impulsive." Zhao Yan explained with a smile.

"That's right, that impeacher is too hateful, it's a pity that his son Sagai is not here, otherwise I will stab him too!" At this time, the bones also spoke. However, Gu Tianjie smiled bitterly when he heard this, because Zhao Yan's reason was too far-fetched, how could he not think of a proper solution if he could think of someone who might pose a threat to the Great Song Dynasty?

Yelusi, who was sitting on the side, also showed a meaningful smile at this time, she also heard the perfunctory meaning of Zhao Yan's words, among the three people present, I am afraid that only the simple-minded girl of the bone will believe Zhao Yan's words.

Gu Tianjie knew that Zhao Yan was perfunctory, but he also knew that if he asked again, Zhao Yan would not tell himself the real reason, and in the end he had to sigh, and then bid farewell to Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan also personally got up to send him and the bones back to the cabin.

When Zhao Yan came back, Ye Lusi was still sitting at the table, and when he saw Zhao Yan, he immediately showed a smile and said, "Why didn't the husband tell Gu Tianjie the real reason?" ”

"I don't know the real reason, do you know?" Zhao Yan sat down with a smile and said, but although he denied it, it seemed to be unpredictable.

"Hehe, of course I know that the reason why my husband did this was probably because he was afraid of his eldest brother's thoughts, so he took the initiative to back down, and even did not hesitate to destroy his reputation with this, so as not to make a gap in your brotherly relationship because of the throne!" Yelusi said with a confident smile, Zhao Yan obviously has a better way to deal with the alliance, but he chose this rude approach, the only explanation is that he did it on purpose, originally Yelusi was still a little puzzled, but seeing the brotherhood between Zhao Yan and Zhao Yan in the past two days, this made her finally understand the reason.

Zhao Yan smiled silently after listening to Yelusi's speculation, and only after a while did he speak: "Si'er, your guess is also one of the reasons, but the most important thing is that I really don't have any interest in the throne, and I don't intend to fight with anyone, and it just so happens that I don't approve of the alliance very much, so I choose to solve it in a simple and crude way, so that although I will be punished, no one will pay attention to me in the future." ”

Zhao Yan did deliberately use brutal methods to sabotage the alliance, mainly because he suddenly seemed to be a little involuntarily, originally he just wanted to be an idle prince, guarding a few beauties to spend a leisurely life, but since the year before, he began to fall into the court little by little, first took over the affairs of the ordnance supervisor, and then was forced to join the mission, but after arriving in the Liao State, he planned a civil strife in the Liao State, and then persuaded the Yan Department to form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty.

If Zhao Yan is an ambitious person, I am afraid that he will return to China after promoting this alliance, and immediately get the attention of Zhao Shu and the ministers, and will be arranged to participate in some other positions in the government, and even become a powerful candidate for the future prince like Zhao Xu, but in this way, it will be difficult to maintain the brotherhood between him and Zhao Xu, and even turn against each other because of this.

But the above life is not what Zhao Yan wants at all, he is originally a person with no ambitions, he eats, drinks and is accompanied by beautiful women every day, this is Zhao Yan's ideal life, of course, under the premise of this kind of life, he can help Da Song to make some changes, such as brightening up new things, spreading the knowledge of future generations, and so on. But if he was allowed to sit on the throne and lead such a large empire, Zhao Yan would not want to do it anyway, first, he knew that he did not have this talent, and secondly, he did not want to turn his life into a battle between the court and the harem.

It is precisely because of the above considerations that Zhao Yan deliberately used a rough and simple method to sabotage the alliance, so that the credit for promoting the alliance will definitely be gone, and it will also leave a reckless impression, and at the same time, it will also make Zhao Shu and the ministers in the court disappointed in him, and when he returns to Tokyo, no one will disturb his leisurely life anymore, and at the same time, he can also do something he really wants to do.
