"And in case you encounter any danger along the way, or even His Royal Highness the Third Prince detains you there..."

"How dare he?" Li Zhen interrupted Dr. Yushi's words, "Do you want me to apologize to him?" No way.

But I went this time, not on behalf of the Great Wei Emperor, but his biological father Li Xingchen.

If he dares to plot against me, it is called killing his father, and he will become a person who is not ashamed in the world. ”

The ministers were silent.

"I will issue a holy decree and hand over the affairs of the Great Wei State to the crown prince. secretly made a private visit and went to find the rebel. ”

The prime minister thought for a moment, "Your Majesty, Weichen will accompany you."

At that time, no matter what method Weichen uses, he will find out the secret of the three princes' improvement of rice. ”

Half a month later.

On the outskirts of Lingzhou.

The fertile rice that Li Xingchen handed over to others to take care of had a good harvest.

Li Zhen and the prime minister stood on the edge of the field with excited expressions.

"Your Majesty, you see, the rumors are indeed true."

"It's true, it's really true. That rebel is rarely that useful. ”

"Your Majesty, if we can come up with an improved formula from the mouth of the third prince, then the food crisis in the capital will be solved."

Li Zhen suddenly laughed.

As long as the people's livelihood problem is solved, he Li Xingchen is a chaotic minister and thief, what can he do to fight with him, the true dragon emperor.

Sooner or later, the city now will have to be spit out.

"What are you doing?"

At this time, a big man with dark skin walked over with a scythe in his hand, followed by hundreds of soldiers.

Because Li Zhen was on a private visit to Weifu, he didn't bring so many people, only one prime minister, one personal guard, and two secret guards.

"You look like dogs, you want to steal rice, right? This is not the place for you to come, so get out! ”

The big man waved impatiently at them and motioned to leave.

"Presumptuous!" The prime minister said in a deep voice, "This is your city lord's biological father, why don't you let Li Xingchen come out to meet your father?" ”

Dahan was stunned for a moment, looking Li Zhen up and down.

The castle lord's father? Isn't that the emperor? Impossible, right? The father and son are so stiff, the emperor Lao'er's throne is about to be lost, and he still came here?

But looking at this old man, between his eyebrows and eyes he does look a little like the city lord.

And this dress is either rich or expensive, it's not true.

...

Castle Lord's Mansion.

The next person came to report that there was a person outside the city who claimed to be the father of the city lord, do you want to let him go?

Li Xingchen also predicted that the emperor Lao'er would definitely come to him, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

The situation in the capital should be very serious, the people can't afford to eat, and they can't complain again and again?

Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat, and the emperor can't afford it.

"Let them in."

Li Zhen and the others walked all the way from outside the city to the city lord's mansion, and walked for more than an hour, and their legs were about to break.

Seeing Li Xingchen, Li Zhen immediately scolded, "Rebel, this is your attitude towards your biological father?" ”

Hehe, Li Xingchen smiled faintly.

"Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, we have severed the father-son relationship, and I am no longer a member of the Great Wei royal family."

Li Zhen's face stiffened, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Blood is thicker than water, the body is skinny, and it is the parents who receive it, this cannot be changed."

I ask you, all the rice out there is your handiwork? ”

The chill in Li Xingchen's eyes flashed, and he knew that he had come all the way from the capital to find him, just for food.

"It's me, what's wrong? What do you knowingly ask? ”

It's as if he was framed and killed by the queen at the beginning, this old thief already knew, but he just didn't say it.

Li Zhen snorted coldly, "I already guessed that it was you." Say, what did you use to make the yield so much higher than usual? ”

Li Xingchen squinted his eyes, there is something wrong with this old thief, right?

Did he really think he wouldn't dare detain him here? Where did he get his confidence?

Food is related to the stomach problems of the people in the world. Rice with a higher yield can do more with less and feed more people.

It is related to the common people in the world and the stability of the country, so as the emperor, Li Zhen naturally wants to know urgently.

"It's either that I don't say it, or that you don't understand it. Emperor Lao'er, hurry back to your capital, lest you accidentally burp outside and all the charges will be piled up on me again.

And I might as well tell you another fact, the rice I have improved is not only the advantage of high yield, it can be planted all year round, and it can be harvested once in one season. ”

What? Li Zhen was shocked.

If this is the case, then the yield is already many times that of ordinary rice!

Where did this rebel learn his skills?

The prime minister suddenly became excited, and looked at Li Xingchen with glowing eyes.

"If you say it without evidence, who knows if you are a liar or not. If you want us to believe in you, you might as well tell us how to improve it.

If we can really harvest it season after season as you say, then we will believe what you say. ”

Li Xingchen curled the corners of his lips disdainfully.

Does he need them to believe? Do I need to prove it to them?

Are they taking themselves for fools?

"I want technology no. But for the sake of the people who are rising and falling, I can sell you a portion of the grain. Now that the war continues, the capital should be running out of ammunition and food. ”

Li Zhen, who was told the central matter, frowned and remained silent.

"How much do you want?" The prime minister thought for a moment and asked.

"Once a thousand taels of gold."

"What?" The crowd was shocked.

Once a thousand taels, this is a grab, and the price is several times higher than now.

"It's okay to exchange ten cities for three years of food for your people, make your own choice."

Li Xingchen is not worried about how they will choose.

Anyway, what he wants to prove is that even if he doesn't have a royal halo, he can still be proud of the world with his skills, so that the people can truly live and work in peace and contentment.

"Your Majesty, it's better for you to sincerely admit your mistake to the third prince." The prime minister shouted in his heart.

The atmosphere was tense for a while.

Li Xingchen seemed to be smiling.

"Oh, it's rare to come here, let's not mention these things, lest I say that I am not considerate, so let's have a meal first."

As he spoke, he got up and walked out.

Li Zhen and others followed.

At this moment, a large pot of sweet potatoes has been put on the table.

Baking with a trillion fire, the thick sweet fragrance has a hint of burnt aroma, which makes people drool when they smell it.

When Chu Li saw Li Zhen, he was extremely surprised, and subconsciously wanted to get up and salute.

Li Xingchen pressed her movements.

"Lady, we are the masters, they are guests."

"Rebel..."Li Zhen gritted his teeth, but he couldn't do anything about Li Xingchen at all.

"It's... What is it? "The Prime Minister's attention was always on the sweet potato.

"Haven't seen it, have you? Incense, right? Want to eat, right? Li Xingchen's faint words were filled with pride.
