Chapter 489: Pumpkin King
When the army arrived at Xishan, Yun Lan came to the front to report that the steppe people had signs of attacking the city.
Xiao Jingxing led the army to march quickly, and Su Lingyu led the people to the north slowly.
By the time she arrived in Handan City, Xiao Jingxing had already recaptured Yangquan and Changzhi.
The battle line was pushed out hundreds of miles, expanding the territory of Daliang.
By July, the fighting had subsided, and the steppe people were willing to negotiate peace with Daliang.
In the following 20 years, there were constant small frictions between Daliang and the grassland people, and on the whole they had friendly exchanges and exchanged ideas.
Su Lingyu began to live his own small life, all kinds of land, engaged in scientific and technological inventions.
Xiao Jingxing, who was full of murderous spirit, walked into the villa and saw her taking the women and busy in the fields.
Somebody saw him and reminded her.
She turned to look at him.
He raised his black whip and told her to come over.
Seeing her smiling, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ran towards him with her hat on her hand.
He had barely dismounted when she had already run to her.
"You're back?" Su Lingyu rushed over and hugged him.
Hook his neck with both hands, hold his head and kiss him.
In front of everyone's eyes, the two hugged and kissed.
None of the attendants dared to look at it, and the bold ones peeked twice.
"Uh-huh." Su Lingyu let go of him.
Still holding him on tiptoe, "I'm back!" ”
"Hmm. The front-line defense has been completed, and a number of remnants of the Wei State have also been cleared, and there will be no more fighting within this year. ”
Strong arms lifted her up on horseback.
Su Lingyu grabbed the stiff rope, lowered his head and met his deep eyes, saw his own reflection, and also saw his doting.
He happily asked him, "If we don't go to war, can we engage in economic construction?" I've asked them to study how to use steam on ships, on cars. ”
Xiao Jingxing turned over and got on the horse, wrapping his hands around her waist. "Don't toss it all, leave some money for your son to raise soldiers."
"Drive."
Su Lingyu didn't want the effect of the spiritual spring to disappear, she wanted to cultivate good seeds and research efficient pesticides, so it was inconvenient for her to move when she lived in the city.
Xiao Jingxing doted on her and directly set up the regent palace outside the city.
"The prince and princess are back."
A group of little ladies trotted in and waited by the door.
They are all thirteen years old, and they were adopted by Su Lingyu and cultivated for longevity.
A group of lively and cute little girls add a lot of color to the Regent's Palace.
The regent was so frightened that they didn't dare to approach, so they had to keep their heads down and stand aside.
Su Lingyu was helped off the horse, and while walking with Xiao Jingxing, he instructed the girls.
"Let the kitchen prepare the meal, three meat and two vegetables, and use the mushrooms that came down from the mountain yesterday."
"Yes."
"Let Lao Liu on the farm slaughter the two big fat pigs and add meat to each workshop, and say that the prince is back, and they will have fun with the prince."
"Yes."
The regent and his wife returned to the room, and Su Lingyu helped him change his armor.
Xiao Jingxing entered the shower room to take a shower and wash up.
"The clothes are outside, you can take them yourself." Su Lingyu shouted.
When he came out of the shower, he saw her wipe his armor.
"I can't wipe it clean, so I have to put a potion bubble to soak off the blood stains hidden in the crevices." She said.
"You can handle it." Xiao Jingxing sat on the recliner and exhaled comfortably. He looked at her sideways with a smile in his eyes.
She threw the handkerchief into the water, changed a basin of water to wash her hands, and said while washing: "The lychees from the south are here, and I will eat them when you come back." ”
He didn't believe that she wouldn't give up the opportunity to try the rare lychee. I'm afraid of these lychees, not the first batch of lychees.
Seeing that he was too lazy to move, Su Lingyu sat down beside him, pinched a reddish lychee, peeled off the lychee shell, and revealed the white and tender thick meat.
He took a bite of it, and ate it cold, the meat was thick and juicy, and it was very delicious. "The taste is not as good as the food in Nanyang City."
"One south and one north, spanning tens of millions of miles in the middle, the taste will naturally change."
He reached out to touch her face, "Thin." ”
"The climate here is dry, coupled with the hot weather, I don't like to eat more and more, and I lost a few pounds."
Seeing that there was displeasure between his eyebrows and reproach in his eyes, she smiled and said, "What is fat and thin, health is the most important thing." ”
"The pumpkin has been grown, do you want to go and see it?"
Stuff a piece of lychee meat in his mouth, and take his hand to pull him up.
"The pumpkin I planted is incomparable in the world, so big that three people can't carry it, but it can sit on two adults. I'm going to send it to Kyoto, show it to Huaili, and let the officials congratulate him.
Let the world know that there is a clear gentleman in the beam. ”
Xiao Jingxing's long legs stretched, and the whole person stood up, and his big hand wrapped around her waist.
Rubbing her face with his chin, "I just came back, and you pushed me out." ”
Su Lingyu smiled and pinched the meat on his waist, his flesh was rough and not afraid of pain. "The old husband and wife are still so numb."
A deep voice sounded in her ears, "Heh, who hugged this prince as soon as he saw this king?" ”
She smiled and tilted her head, looking like she wasn't me.
The servant brought him a gauze hat, and she picked out a black gauze hat for him.
The black gauze hat was on his head, and looking at him from the black gauze, he was more like the emotionless killer.
Those perceptive eyes are the most terrifying.
When these eyes looked at her with warmth, she felt that the tacky gauze hat could not accompany his temperament.
In the end, I chose to hold an umbrella.
The group came to the pumpkin patch, and the pumpkin in the field was as big as a wheel. The smallest one is brought to the bazaar, which is also rare.
As the regent, Xiao Jingxing revealed a trace of worry. "You're like this, isn't it too much?"
"During this time, there are many Taoist priests and monks, so you should be careful."
"Don't worry, I'm not the only one who grows big pumpkins." Su Lingyu took him to the biggest one.
"The first batch of seeds has been distributed, and people outside Handan will be able to harvest pumpkins in the fall."
The Pumpkin King is very famous, and for fear of being stolen, he specially let people set up a tent to watch.
"This melon is too big."
"Princess, did you grow this melon?"
"How is this done?"
The people who followed the prince back from the battlefield couldn't believe that there was such a big pumpkin in the world.
"Fertilize it reasonably, and serve it the same way as you serve your ancestors, and you can do it." Su Lingyu patted the Pumpkin King, "It has grown, but it won't be long before you give it to the emperor." ”
"Really?"
"Didn't you want the class teacher to return to the court and accept the reward? Bring it back along the way, so I don't have to pay another car fare. "Su Lingyu is all right.
Xiao Jingxing asked her, "Can you eat this melon?" ”
"This melon can't be eaten, it has become a vein inside, like a human vein. Meat firewood, eating it is also tasteless. ”
Xiao Jingxing went over to pat the Pumpkin King, "It's useless, what's the use of coming?" ”
"You can use melon seeds as seeds, or fried melon seeds."
Su Lingyu nodded, "Well, the melon seeds are delicious." Get some pumpkin seeds and send them to longevity. ”
