Chapter 299 is very embarrassing

The guards saw that the emperor attached great importance to it and did not dare to take it lightly. He took out his knife and carefully cut open the basket outside.

This squire is highly skilled. The outer basket is broken, but the inside is intact.

Sweet potatoes are packed in baskets, and the soil from the land used is sprinkled with water from time to time on the road. In the capital, the leaves of these sweet potatoes and potatoes withered, but they survived.

Zhang Zhao came over and squatted on the ground. He doesn't mind the dirt being dirty. He held the dirt below with both hands, just as he saw the harvest in a sweet potato field.

Soon, a whole sweet potato root came out.

Zhang Zhao carefully picked it up. More than a dozen large and small long and round purple-red bumps appeared in front of Emperor Qi Shun.

Emperor Qi Shun stepped forward to inspect it carefully and found that these sweet potatoes did indeed grow from the roots, and they were not tied up by deception.

At this time, Emperor Qi Shun was also very excited. The heart is pounding. He reached out and took the sweet potato seedlings and stared at the roots. "This ...... Is this true?"

Zhang Zhao nodded and replied in a deep voice: "It's absolutely true that Wechen dares to take the minister's head as a guarantee. If it is fake, the emperor will directly order someone to cut off the head of the minister. It is related to the national fortunes of the Great Qi State. The minister didn't dare to talk nonsense. ”

Gonggong Li was also very excited at this time. He handed the dust to the little eunuch behind him, knelt on the ground, and brushed away the dirt under the potatoes with his hands.

Soon, the whole potato root appeared in front of Grandpa Li.

Gonggong Li carefully picked it up, knelt on the ground, and presented it to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Xiangrui, the real Xiangrui!"

As a minister beside Emperor Qi Shun, he knows better than anyone that Emperor Qi Shun is diligent in government. I got up early and went to the court, and I had to revise the recital at night until late at night.

If it weren't for the fact that there were not many princes in the palace, the emperor would not have entered the harem.

Such a hard-working emperor was also scolded by those old ministers pointing at his nose, saying that the emperor's throne was not right, so he brought disaster.

In fact, it's all fart. What does this disaster have to do with the emperor? But the courtiers and the common people believed this. If we have high-yielding crops as our auspiciousness, who dares to talk nonsense anymore?

Emperor Qi Shun held a sweet potato in one hand and a potato in the other. He scrutinized it. You can't be careless because you're excited. After careful inspection, Emperor Qi Shun was sure that it was complete.

Before Emperor Qi Shun entered the study, he hurriedly asked: "Zhang Aiqing, I want to hear about the cultivation of sweet potatoes and potatoes."

Zhang Zhao showed the fold. "Your Majesty. What Weichen wanted to say was written in the fold. Both crops are highly yielded. Weichen arranged for Shanyang County to order Lord Lu to send someone to protect them. The emperor could send someone to inspect it overnight, so that the sweet potatoes could catch up with the late-ripening season. ”

Emperor Qi Shun took the fold and read it carefully. He had a general idea of what was going on per acre. "Zhang Aiqing works very hard. You've had a hard time all the way. Let's go back and get some rest. I immediately sent someone to Qianlihua Village in Shanyang County. After tomorrow's dynasty, I will send those old ministers to Qianlihua Village, so that they can see the real auspicious signs. ”

Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "The emperor is wise."

Emperor Qi Shun looked at the sweet potatoes and potatoes and handed them to Gonggong Li. "Let the imperial dining room steam sweet potatoes, bake sweet potatoes, and make sweet potato cakes. Don't be too complicated. ”

Grandpa Li replied, "Yes." Master Zhang, have you eaten before?"

Zhang Zhao nodded and smiled: "Yes, it's delicious." But there's one very bad thing that is very embarrassing. ”
