Yan Yan said that these are not for intercession, but in case one day the Queen Mother really sent someone to investigate the affairs of the Zhou family, if something is found out at that time, the Queen Mother will treat Yan Yan Yan and not report the crime.

Besides, she was also afraid that if something happened to Zhou Wan's father, it would affect Li Sui, and emotionally, she would naturally be closer to Li Sui.

Sure enough, when the Queen Mother heard that Father Zhou might be involved in greedy ink, she quickly pinched that little bit of caution, and at the same time, she was also dissatisfied with Yan Yan, who she couldn't associate with, but she wanted to deal with such a girl, in case she was tired of Li Sui, could she afford it?

Also, why did Mrs. Zhou let her own sister and sister not ask for it, but came to beg Yan Yan, and was willing to tell such a big secret in the family, it can be seen that it is not a day to interact with Yan Yan, and the relationship is by no means ordinary, this child is hiding such a big thing from her, something is really going to happen, what is she going to do?

Yan Yan saw the Queen Mother's dislike and the faint anger on her face, so she didn't wait for the other party to ask, and took the initiative to explain, "Back to the Queen Mother, I also knew about these things, and I rejected the request of the mother and daughter at the first time. Besides, since someone has filed a lawsuit, the case must have been sent to the royal court one day, so why should I intervene in this way? spread out, and the people outside who didn't know the bottom should be arranged again, saying that I was pampered and arrogant, and I wanted to meddle in the government. ”

This is also reasonable, the Queen Mother's face softened when she heard this, "That's it, this matter is over, this kind of person, you better have less contacts." ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, please rest assured, I know the severity. I promised her one thing, if she asked me to learn how to take care of the barren mountains and wastelands, I would help her, and as for other things, I would not talk about it. Yan Yan promised.

The Queen Mother was obviously dissatisfied with this answer, and frowned slightly, "How could she also think about taking care of the barren mountains and wasteland?" Most of them want to get close to you or also want to build a reputation behind you, which shows that he is a scheming, and I don't like this kind of person. ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, this matter has something to do with me. A few days ago, I found a kind of Tianzhu crop called cotton from the hands of those two missionaries, which is similar to silkworm cocoons, which can be used for heating and weaving, but it is much cheaper than silkworm cocoons, and the people can afford to use it, but I don't want to occupy fertile land to do this, for fear of affecting the grain harvest, therefore, I hope that more and more people will invest in the development of barren mountains and wastelands, so that the people will have hope for food and clothing, so... ”

Who knew that Yan Yan's words hadn't finished yet, and the eunuch outside shouted, "The emperor has arrived." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Li Cong striding in, "Yan'er, tell me about this crop again, do you mean that you can directly plant silkworm cocoons?" No, you're saying that there is a crop that is similar to a cocoon and can be used as a substitute for a cocoon? ”

It turned out that Li Cong also saw that the time was not early, I heard that those women were scattered, reasoning, Yan Yan should go to thank him, but after waiting for so long and no one, he thought that Yan Yan and the Lu family went back together, so he thought about coming to Cining Palace to go around, and asked about today's situation, but after entering the courtyard, he knew that the Queen Mother left Yan Yan alone.

Coincidentally, as soon as he entered the door, he heard Yan Yan talking about silkworm cocoons and what food and clothing, and when he was so excited, he even forgot to say hello to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother saw that her son attached so much importance to the cotton of this Tianzhu country, and knew that Yan Yan could solve a big problem for her son, so she couldn't help but regret her anger.

This kid is a person who does great things, but she doesn't believe her again and again, no, it can't be said that she doesn't believe her, but she has too many things to weigh, so from time to time, she will put Yan Yan's position back.

In this regard, she is really not as good as her own son, nor as good as her grandson, the father and son are now really trusting and convinced of Yan Yan, and they are willing to talk to her about anything.

Of course, Yan Yan can really help them.

No, it's only been a few days, and what kind of crops from Tianzhu Country have come out, don't look at the Queen Mother who doesn't ask about political affairs, but she also knows that if the people can wear cotton jackets and cover quilts in winter, how many people can freeze to death in one winter?

"Back to the emperor, I just got a little seed, and I don't dare to say if I can try to grow it, but this cotton does have a big use." Yan Yan took the opportunity to popularize some uses of cotton from the other party.

This time she was not afraid of revealing her stuff, and the two missionaries were still living in the capital.

"Girl, how did you think of asking them for seeds? There have been missionaries in this dynasty before, but no one can remember it. Li Cong asked.

"Back to the emperor, have you forgotten that I once said that I bought the barren mountain? I've asked you for seeds. I was influenced by Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions, and Zhang Qian knew about the new seeds he brought back from the Western Regions, so I thought that these missionaries might also want to collect some seeds that they didn't have in their own country and bring them back. ”

"Queen mother, the son is wrong, the son should send Yan'er and his family to accompany the prince to the northland, maybe there will be something else." Li Cong said with a smile, he was really impressed by Yan Yan.

"Back to the emperor, I have already told my two maids to bring some grass seeds from the north, and some other things that are not available in the capital." Yan Yan said with a smile.

Yan Yan's words once again gave Li Cong a surprise, "Girl, what kind of official do you think I will appoint you?" There was also a precedent in the Tang Dynasty for women to be officials, so why don't you follow along. ”

"Don't, Your Majesty, don't open this mouth. I might as well do something practical. Not to mention, this cotton is going to be planted successfully, how to promote it is a difficult problem, and it must not occupy the existing fertile land, so I plan to take advantage of this time to go around and see where there is suitable wasteland to buy. Yan Yan waved his hand busily.

"Yan'er is right, women will definitely be criticized for being officials, and it will not be good if it affects the fortunes of the country." The Queen Mother also did not approve of Yan Yan coming out to be an official.

This is called Si Chen, and there will definitely be a commotion in the court.

"It's okay, Yan'er, if you do this, I will definitely give you great grace." Li Cong had a plan in his heart.

"Back to the emperor, this is already a great grace, the queen mother gave me a birthday, the queen is the guest of honor, the princess is the praiser, let me ask the Great Zhou Kingdom in addition to the princess and county lord, who still has my courtesy? I'm content, just now I told the Queen Mother, my life is the most leisurely now, I don't have to live with the elders, I can let go of my hands and feet to do what I like, my husband promised me not to take concubines, and you are there in the palace to support me, do you know how many people in the whole capital envy me? This is much better than the Lady of the Prince. Yan Yan said.

These are her heartfelt words
