Chapter 327: Questioning

Xie Qiping didn't know Ning Pengpeng's plans at all, if he knew her plans, it would definitely be impossible to take her into Beijing with him.

"Minister, Xie Qiping, meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!"

After Xie Qiping entered, he first trotted forward to the middle of the hall, faced the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, bowed down, and shouted long live.

Ning Pengpeng seemed to be frightened, and also trotted behind Xie Qiping, and then poofed, directly threw himself to the ground, and then shouted.

"Minister, Ning, meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!"

Seeing Ning Pengpeng's posture of throwing his five bodies to the ground, and hearing these words again, Xie Qiping's head suddenly secreted a layer of sweat.

secretly complained in her heart, this old woman in the countryside, she didn't understand the slightest etiquette, she actually lost her manners in front of the palace, and dared not to call herself a woman.

Like her, the light one will hit the board, and the heavy one will probably die!

Emperor Jin He, who was sitting on the dragon chair, didn't expect that the woman who came in with Xie Qiping would actually bow with her five bodies, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and be silent.

Xie Qiping originally wanted to beckon Ning Pengpeng to get up and kneel like himself to reply, but seeing that His Majesty was silent, the sweat on his forehead flowed down all of a sudden, and he didn't dare to signal to Ning Pengpeng.

After all, if a careless and even his own majesty is unhappy, how can it be good?

I went back to Beijing this time to go further, but I didn't come to be criticized and punished.

"Xie Aiqing, this is the Ning clan mentioned in your letter?"

Just when Xie Qiping's sweat was flowing and flowing, Ning Pengpeng was lying on the ground and was about to fall asleep, and Emperor Jin He on the dragon chair above asked.

"Yes, yes, back to Your Majesty, she is the Ning family.

The Ning family was born in a peasant family, and they only knew how to farm all their lives, so they didn't know anything about the etiquette in the palace, and they lost their manners in front of the palace, and they hoped that His Majesty would forgive their sins. ”

When Xie Qiping heard His Majesty's question, he hurriedly kowtowed and replied respectfully.

He couldn't help but say a good word for Ning Peng.

No way, he brought the man.

If Ning Pengpeng really has any crimes, he will definitely not be able to get anything good.

Therefore, Xie Qiping knows that helping Ning Pengpeng now is helping himself.

"Heh, Xie Aiqing, let's be flat!"

Emperor Jin He chuckled.

Hearing His Majesty say this, Xie Qiping finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

When he got up, he kicked Ning Pengpeng's lying hand imperceptibly with his foot.

Ning Pengpeng seemed to have just reacted, and hurriedly followed Xie Qiping's example, stood up together, craned his neck, and stood behind him respectfully, looking cowering.

Seeing Ning Peng standing up, Xie Qiping was almost so frightened that his heart jumped out of his mouth.

He wanted Ning to kneel well, why did he stand up?

However, he was afraid that His Majesty would be angry, so he hurriedly diverted His Majesty's attention and said.

"Your Majesty, the high-yield crop sweet potato mentioned in the letter I sent you earlier has been brought by the minister, please take a look at it."

As his words fell, the sturdy eunuch who had been carrying the basket of sweet potatoes before bowed his waist, carried the sweet potatoes in, and placed them in the temple.

Where would Emperor Jin He not know Xie Qiping's thoughts, but the right thing is important.

His eyes quickly fell on the basket of sweet potatoes.

Looking at the gray-brown stem, I couldn't help but frown.

"This is what you said about sweet potatoes, can you eat this sweet potato?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister once made this sweet potato according to the practice that Ning said, which was crisp and sweet when eaten raw, and soft and glutinous and sweet after cooking.

Not only is it highly yielding, it also has a good taste, and most importantly, it is easy to fill your stomach. ”

"Oh, Ning, how did you find this crop?"

Hearing Xie Qiping's words, Emperor Jin He looked at Ning Peng with some curiosity.

"Back to Your Majesty, this sweet potato was bought by the son of a woman from the hands of the Fanbang people, so it is called a sweet potato.

Originally, the women didn't want to plant it, but they didn't expect that the sweet potatoes they bought would be put away casually and placed in the damp mud.

When the woman remembered, the sweet potato had begun to sprout, and vines had grown.

The woman thought about it, pulled off the vine, threw it aside, and thought that the sweet potato could still be eaten.

Unexpectedly, the sweet potato vines that were pulled down by the women actually survived, not to mention, and grew roots.

The woman thought that since this sweet potato vine could grow roots, it would definitely be able to grow sweet potatoes as well.

So, I tried to plant those sweet potato seeds in the ground, and when the vines grew, I cut them off and planted them in the soil.

Anyway, this sweet potato vine, even if it is cut, can grow again.

Sure enough, after two months, more than a dozen sweet potatoes were produced under the sweet potato vines.

Your Majesty, this sweet potato is not only eaten raw and boiled as Lord Xie said, but can also be made into powder, and then used the powder to make vermicelli, which is delicious!

The third child of the people's woman's family is a businessman, and every time the vermicelli made of sweet potatoes is sold, it is sold out every time. ”

Emperor Jin He only asked, but Ning Pengpeng said a lot.

At the beginning, Xie Qiping's anxious heart jumped to his feet.

However, when he saw that His Majesty was listening carefully and did not look impatient, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your third child? How many sons do you have? ”

Emperor Jin He seemed to be led astray by Ning Pengpeng, and his attention fell directly on the third child mentioned by Ning Pengpeng.

"Back to Your Majesty, the woman has four sons and one daughter.

The four sons are married, and there is only one daughter left, who is still at home.

When the woman went back this time, she wanted to help the woman prepare to find a good family. ”

Ning Pengpeng heard what Emperor Jin and Emperor asked, and replied a little shyly.

"All four sons are married?

What do the other three do besides your third runner?

Of the four of them, which one is the most filial to you?

Will all the money you earn be handed over to you? ”

Emperor Jin He continued to ask with a smile.

When Xie Qiping heard His Majesty's question, his heart was full of chuckles, and he couldn't help but sweat on his back.

"Your Majesty, in fact, a few years ago, the women's family was separated.

No matter how it is, the folk woman is a widow, raising so many children, all of them are digging in the ground, and they can't support such a large family.

Actually, the main thing is that the hearts are not aligned, and several sons have selfish intentions.

In the end, there was no choice but to split up.

After the family was separated, the women took their young sons and daughters, who had not yet married, and began to make some pastries to sell in the town.

Unexpectedly, business was not bad.

Because sugar is needed to make cakes, the women wonder how to make sugar.

After all, the price of sugar in the town is not cheap.

Although pastries can make money, it can also earn hard money.

One day, the woman wanted to eat the sugar cane, but the sugar cane was too hard, and the woman was too old to bite the hard sugar cane, so she thought about squeezing the juice and drinking it.

Drinking and drinking, the women thought that this sugar is sweet, and this sugarcane water is also sweet, so they tried to change the law, and finally made sugar from this sugarcane water! ”
