Chapter 284: Easier and happier than the emperor
As soon as His Majesty the Emperor's voice fell, a gust of wind blew, and the tall coconut tree shook twice, and suddenly a bunch of big coconuts fell!
Qi Yunxiao quickly stepped forward to catch it, and walked over with it.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and when he saw clearly that it was the coconut he had just drunk, he was also stunned: "What did I drink just now?" ”
"Yes, this is called coconut, you drink the juice, and the white flesh in it can also be squeezed for oil, which is the coconut oil used to make coconut oil soap......"
After a popular science, His Majesty the Emperor showed a thoughtful expression: "There are local customs and customs in various places, and the people on this sea have a completely different way of life from us, and their food and output are all different......
Everyone didn't speak, just looked at His Majesty the Emperor.
From the perspective of the king of a country, the height and breadth of thinking are naturally different.
Everyone waited for a long time, waiting for the sound of His Majesty's snoring.
Everyone: "......"
Shen Zhongyi softly told everyone to disperse, leaving only Qi Yunxiao and Concubine Rong to accompany them.
Concubine Rong was afraid that Shen Qingyu would feel tired, so she asked them to go back first, leaving only herself to accompany His Majesty, and some personal soldiers were left in the distance to guard.
His Majesty the Emperor slept until sunset.
In the cool sea breeze, Concubine Rong was not at ease and tried to cover him with a cloak, and His Majesty the Emperor woke up.
Concubine Rong apologized: "I was afraid that you would be cold, but I didn't expect to wake you up." ”
The emperor waved his hand, sat up, and looked at the waves crashing on the beach in front of him in a little stunned, and suddenly asked, "Rong'er, will you blame me for not recognizing Xiao'er?" ”
Concubine Rong shook her head: "It's not easy for you to have yours, what do I blame you for?" ”
"Besides, if you recognize him, whether he can be an adult or not!"
"He had a dark forehead since he was a child, because of poisoning, but we didn't know it, just that he was a birthmark, who would have thought that someone wanted to harm me and him......"
"At that time, I thought, if he can grow up safely and live a peaceful life like ordinary people's wives and children, it will be enough, don't be like those people in the palace, you poison me, I will harm you......"
"He's doing well now, which can be regarded as a little comfort in my heart."
But he didn't necessarily think so...... It's that I can't live with him. "His Majesty the Emperor faced the sea and the woman he trusted the most, and finally showed a little bit of vulnerability.
"You've done your best." Concubine Rong sighed.
As a prince, if you want to rebel, you naturally can't be too high-profile in advance.
Those who stuff people into his yard with ulterior motives can only pretend to be deaf and dumb.
In those years, the backyard of the palace was full of chickens and dogs, and Concubine Rong was only a side concubine at that time, because she did not fight, and she was "childless", but she was preserved.
And those who fought hard, but each of them was injured.
So much so that today's King Gong and King Heng's mother, one of the concubines died early, and the other was sick for three days.
It was all caused by the house fight at that time.
Although the prince became the emperor in the end, he had just ascended the throne, but he couldn't dismiss everyone in the harem, and he was already doing his best to resist the concubines who did not stand up and did not accept new concubines.
The son is right, being this emperor is really hard, it is better for him to be at ease on this island!
"Your Majesty! Empress! Come back for dinner......" Qi Yunxiao shouted over there.
"Alas! Good ......" Concubine Rong agreed to help the emperor.
The emperor struggled to get up by the hand of Concubine Rong.
In the past year, the emperor has also been poisoned twice, once and once without...... The news was blocked, and the outside only thought that he had been cold for a few days.
After detoxification, the physical condition is not as good as it seems.
The emperor, it's not easy to sit!
Shen Qingyu's parents, plus Qi Yunxiao's parents, and three children, are now truly together and reunited!
This is an unprecedented reunion.
Therefore, Shen Qingyu attached great importance to it and secretly decided to give Qi Yunxiao a sense of ceremony.
So after His Majesty and Niangniang got off the boat, they all rested and relieved their seasickness, Shen Qingyu, who had a big belly, personally "supervised", and Ms. Zhao Yuzhu personally cooked and made a table of delicacies.
Braised pork, steamed fish, coconut chicken, braised duck, steamed egg with shrimp...... A table was set up with a dazzling array of eyes.
The space used for all the vegetarian dishes is grown by himself, and the wine is made from osmanthus in Shen Qingyu's space warehouse.
When he saw such a rich menu, His Majesty the Emperor was also taken aback: today's meal is really eye-catching.
Shen Zhongyi invited the emperor to taste it.
The emperor took a bite of the greens, and then his eyes widened.
Fresh! Very fresh!
Sweet!
The light sweetness peculiar to green vegetables is sweet.
Tender!
There is no dregs in chewing......
After eating the same thing, His Majesty the Emperor sighed again: No wonder Qi Yunxiao doesn't want to be the emperor, he just wants to live on the island.
This kind of day is much easier and happier than the emperor!
His Majesty the Emperor raised a cup, a family feast and harmony.
Walking on the beach after dinner, listening to the sound of the waves, His Majesty the Emperor quietly sighed to Concubine Rong: "On this day, the bones of heroes are going to be boiled!" ”
Concubine Rong's intuition was wrong: "What do you mean?" ”
"Xiao'er has the ability and ability, if he can contribute to the country, we will be able to develop better in the future!" His Majesty the Emperor really began to fight Qi Yunxiao's idea.
Concubine Rong opened her mouth, it was not easy to say it directly if she refused, but her brows furrowed: "What do you want him to do?" ”
"He can earn so much silver now, if he is willing to do something beneficial to the people's livelihood in Daqi, it will be of great help to Daqi, just like before, in the famine year, he and Qingyu went to Daxia to buy food and came back......"
As soon as I thought of this, and then looked at the large and small ships that came and went on Whale Landing Island in the past two days, His Majesty the Emperor's heart warmed up.
If you want a place, Daqi has it!
If you want people, you have them!
You only need to do business that can stabilize people's livelihood in Daqi, and make some investment when Daqi needs it, which will naturally make Daqi better and better.
Hearing that the emperor said that he just asked Qi Yunxiao to do business in Daqi, Concubine Rong breathed a sigh of relief: it was not to ask him to go to the court every day, and to fight with those courtiers.
"Then go back to him yourself."
When Qi Yunxiao heard this request, he only thought about it for a while, and then agreed: "The minister is dull, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”
His Majesty the Emperor suddenly became energetic: "I think the idea of the reservoir is excellent, can you come forward and raise people to repair the reservoir, you can contribute money and grain, and when the time comes, you can raise fish and reward you with some fields as compensation?" What do you think? ”
Shen Qingyu once wrote a suggestion about this.
However, it was not easy for the imperial court to fulfill it.
There is a limit to where a reservoir can be managed, and there are only a limited number of people who can be transferred.
People have to take care of their food, and this grain alone requires a lot of food, not to mention how long it takes to dig rocks, pick up mud, pick stones, and build dams for reservoirs......
This is an era where all the work depends on strength!
