Dingguo Gong fell, and many ministers in the DPRK and China trembled.

Xu Liangsheng returned home and told his wife about the fate of the Dingguo Mansion, and he still had palpitations.

Mrs. Xu frowned and said, "Master, what the Lu family has done is really a crime that deserves death. It's just that the Lu family said that it would fall, and it was really impermanent. This Lu family also died by themselves, and the queen was already very sad when she disappeared from the saint, and they also took the opportunity to force the saint to change the queen, and they were so shameless. What are they waiting for if the saint doesn't clean them up. ”

Xu Liangsheng looked at the room and no one else approached his wife and whispered: "This Lu Zhilan knows that she wants to enter the palace as a concubine, and she is very likely to be the queen, and she originally wanted to enter the palace, but it must be strange for her to do such an ugly thing." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu looked at her husband and whispered, "Do you suspect that someone is calculating the Lu family?" ”

Xu Liangsheng said: "I got a piece of news that the Holy One doesn't want to take a concubine at all, and the holy decree of this concubine is from the Emperor Taishang. For this matter, the saint also had a quarrel with the Emperor Taishang.

The Emperor Taishang felt that the queen mother's influence on the saint was too great, and he wanted to use other women to disperse the saint's favor for the queen mother. But the Holy One didn't want another woman. It is very likely that the disappearance of the queen mother is also related to the emperor's decree to the holy concubine. ”

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she felt that something was wrong and said, "Master, do you say that Lu Zhilan's matter will have the hand of the saint?" Will our family be in danger? ”

The more Mrs. Xu thought about it, the more worried she became, and grabbed her husband and said, "Master, we Yin Yin don't want to enter the palace at all, but there is no way to make a holy decree in the palace." Now that the saint is getting stronger and stronger, it is estimated that the emperor will not be able to control the saint at all in the future, if the saint does not want us Yin Yin to enter the palace, will it be unfavorable to our Yin Yin? ”

Xu Liangsheng frowned and thought for a long time and said, "Tomorrow I will go to see the saint, and I will say that our family Yinyin is not in good health, and I beg the saint to spare our daughter from entering the palace." If the saint really doesn't want our daughter to enter the palace, he will definitely approve my request. Then we don't have to worry. ”

Mrs. Xu nodded and said, "That's it." We didn't want our daughter to enter the palace in the first place, and it would be great if the saint could agree. It's just that my daughter's marriage is going to be affected. That's also better than being snubbed or even dangerous when you enter the palace. ”

Xu Liangsheng did not delay, and the next day, after going to court, he met the emperor alone and said his request.

Xiao Yilin summoned Xu Liangsheng in Zichen Palace, and was very happy to hear Xu Liangsheng's request, feeling that Xu Liangsheng was very knowledgeable about current affairs, so he agreed to his request.

In this way, he solved the two women who were going to enter the palace, and there were only two left. He'll find a way to solve both obstacles.

Xu Liangsheng came out of the Zichen Palace, thinking back to the tone of the saint's speech and the expression on his face, and knew that he had taken the right step. He felt that the Holy Lord had no intention of letting a few women from the Emperor's holy decree enter the palace at all. He took the initiative to ask his daughter to not be able to enter the palace, which was in line with the sage's thoughts, so it seemed that his daughter and the Xu family were stable.

Jing Yi didn't know that Xiao Yilin was looking for her while stabilizing the government, and was still clearing the obstacles between them little by little. She is pregnant now and has a lot of things to deal with, so she has no time to think about Xiao Yilin.

In early spring, the grain and other crops planted by her subordinates were harvested one after another. Whether it is rice, wheat or potatoes, it is a bumper harvest. The yield surprised everyone involved in farming.

Jingyi also showed everyone how to eat potatoes, everyone didn't expect that this potato not only has a very high yield but also can make a variety of delicious food, everyone saw it for the first time. With this high-yield potato, everyone has nothing to worry about filling their stomachs.

After this harvest of the farmer, these people can be completely self-sufficient, and they don't need Jingyi to buy food from outside.

In the past few months, not only has the grain been harvested, but the vegetables grown by each family have not been able to eat, and the chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and sheep raised by each family have grown very well. Many hens have already started laying eggs, and they don't have to worry about eating eggs.

The salt drying plant built by Song Yuancheng and others is very successful, and a lot of coarse salt has been dried. The veterans who went to build the salt factory built a house on the side of the salt factory and stayed there for a long time, and it happened to be kept secret from the outside world.

The veterans burst into tears of excitement when they first saw the salt from the sea.

In ancient times, due to the limited knowledge of the ancients, they could only use the method of boiling brine directly from the stove and iron pot to make salt.

This primitive boiling of salt is time-consuming, fuel-intensive, and low-yielding, so the price of salt is expensive, and buying and selling salt was a lucrative industry in ancient times.

Moreover, all dynasties and dynasties brought the salt trade under the control of the imperial court, and prohibited the private manufacture and sale of salt, which was an important source of tax revenue for the imperial courts of various dynasties.

Moreover, the source of salt production is generally controlled by the imperial court, and private individuals have no raw materials even if they want to make salt.

Beiyan had to buy it from the Jin State or the Yiguo Kingdom because of the very small salt production in their country, which also made them pay a lot of money every year. Beiyan also once started a war because of salt.

Therefore, both ordinary people and officials know the importance of table salt. These veterans know even more.

It's ecstatic that salt can now be dried in the sea. After all, the sea water is inexhaustible, and it is easy to dry salt in salt pans, which is simply a lucrative business.

A workshop was also built at the foot of the mountain, and under the guidance of Jingyi, the coarse salt was dissolved and filtered and crystallized to obtain relatively clean salt.

Now Jing Yi is inconvenient, and he has not yet looked for a reagent to remove soluble impurities in the salt, so he can only do this first. Even so, for the ancients, such salt was already good.

Song Yuancheng was also excited when he saw the white salt finally obtained after processing. As a former son of a family, he certainly knew what it meant. With this constant supply of salt, they will earn a lot of money, and it will be much easier to develop their own power.

Jing Yi was very relieved to hand over the salt drying field to Song Yuancheng, and she later sent Qiao Hong over.

In the future, Song Yuancheng has more important things to do, and when Qiao Hong grows up, he will hand over the salt drying farm to Qiao Hong to manage.

Jing Yi's pregnancy has reached an advanced stage, and the mother and daughter of Qin and Liu have made a lot of small clothes for Jing Yi's child, and diapers and small quilts have also been prepared.

Jingyi attaches great importance to this child, and she requires soft cotton cloth for the diapers, clothes, quilts, etc. prepared for the child.

She was afraid that she would have no milk and let people raise cows and ewes, and even if she had no milk at that time, she could let the child drink milk or goat's milk.

During this time, Jingyi taught Qu a lot of medical knowledge, which made Qu grow a lot. Especially in midwifery, maternal care, infant care, etc., Jingyi taught Qu a lot of things, Qu was grateful, and was very concerned about Jingyi's baby.
