Experiments are not that simple.

Hybridization experiments need to go through a process of variety selection, after which the ability to maintain the plant is determined. Successive backcrosses are then used to identify resilient plants. The last step is to select the plants with the most stable traits by crossing the restorer lines to determine the good varieties. The stabilization of a trait requires at least eight or more experimental data support.

If it's just a one-time or two-time result, it's not convincing.

After all, adaptability and high yield are very complex plant traits of rice varieties. It seems that there are only two characteristics, but in fact, there are many aspects related to subdivision. The adaptability of varieties to environmental changes such as light and temperature, the resistance to local diseases, insects, and adverse pests, and the seed setting rate of varieties all require a large number of experimental reality support.

It's a tedious, time-consuming, and trial-and-error process.

Wang Shu often complains that she is a farmer, which is not an exaggeration. Every year, she plans ahead of time, plans the experimental group, and sets up the sample area. And these tasks are repetitive and tedious. The fact that rice has indeed achieved a bumper harvest this year does not mean that we will be able to relax our vigilance next year. In the experiment, there is no room for sloppiness and mental slackness.

The most intuitive example is that Wang Shu failed to follow up the whole process of this year's wheat seed hybrid experiment, and the result failed.

But it's not completely unrewarding. At least mutated plants have emerged in wheat seeds.

There are not many mutated plants, only a dozen in total. Thanks to the care of lily of the valley, I found that these plants are special. Although he failed to get Wang Shu's guidance in time, these dozen mutant plants were transplanted. But Lily of the Valley was afraid that the letters would not be timely, so one was removed. The wheat plant also harvested seeds in season, only a small handful, but Wang Shu was already very happy.

As for what traits this mutant plant is, Wang Shu's targeted research in the coming year is still needed.

The cold winter months reduce people's interest in going out and about for activities. Wang Shu longed to be in the house all winter, it was too cold.

The cat is not in the way in the house, and in the winter, it snows again. There is nothing else to do with the Wang family left and right, except for the shops in the capital and the dart bureau trying to contact the main family for several days in a row to test whether she is there. Elsewhere it was peaceful.

Of course, it would be better if Xiao Yanxing didn't come to harass her.

Five months later, Wang Shu's stomach began to move slightly. At first, Wang Shu thought it was an illusion, but then again she was lying on the couch and reading the account book, and suddenly a bulge on her stomach struck. The little thing was like a swimming fish, and it was sudden.

Wang Shu was startled at first, thinking that there was something wrong. Xiao Liang said that this is because the child is growing well, which is a good thing. She didn't suffer much when she conceived this child, she didn't have morning sickness, and she didn't have this pain or itching. So I relaxed, I should eat, I should sleep. Xiao Yanxing came back late one night, and when he was holding her, he was kicked by a small thing.

At that moment, Xiao was shocked, who had never been surprised. His face was cracked, and his eyes widened slightly. Carefully put his hand on Wang Shu's abdomen, and then was kicked again.

"He ......" Xiao Yanxing blinked, "moved?" ”

"Hmm." Wang Shu was shocked from the beginning to now numb, and lay down gracefully. I grabbed the orange on the table and peeled it off, slowly stuffed a petal into my mouth, and chewed slowly with my cheeks: "It's alive and moving." ”

Xiao Yanxing: "......"

The reason for his tall stature is that Xiao Yanxing's hands are also big.

The slender hand was open, and the fingers could cover more than half of Wang Shu's abdomen. He touched it slowly, Wang Shu's stomach was warm, and a strange warm current was surging in his heart. This is the first time that he has this clear understanding: in Shu'er's belly, there is a child who is connected to his blood is growing up. The two of them are going to have a child.

Since then, this man has had a bad habit. I'm going to come down the mountain every few days to touch it.

Young men are good at this, and the winter is especially warm like a big stove. I don't need a hand stove in Xiao Yan's arms.

"Who the hell is this kid like? Isn't it a little too lively? "It's not painful to kick, but it's scary. Wang Shu sometimes writes things attentively, and she sweats coldly.

"Like you." Xiao Yanxing shook her wrist very naturally, it was hot, and the room was hot.

Wang Shu was suddenly dissatisfied: "? ”

Seeing her shocked look of 'what are you putting out of a lot of nonsense', Xiao Yanxing couldn't help laughing: "It's good to be lively, ...... child"

The child is expected to be born in April or May of the following year. Just in time to survive the cold winter and be born in time for the best weather. Wang Shu can eat and sleep anyway, the only thing she doesn't feel very satisfied with is probably that after the month grows, Xiao Liang does not allow her to lie down anytime and anywhere. Always keep an eye on her and walk around. However, in winter, it is really cold, and there is little room to move around. Wang Shu could only go around in circles.

Not to mention that in order to make more space for Wang Shu to move around, Mama Jiang was stunned to clear out some of the furniture in the house. Here in the capital, Liu Ruyan woke up from a nightmare in a cold sweat.

She gasped violently, sweat soaking her clothes, and her hair sticking to her cheeks and neck. When the night girl heard the movement, she immediately put on her clothes and rushed over, poured a glass of honey and patted her on the back and fed her to drink. Liu Ruyan swallowed as tears slipped from the corners of her eyes. The images in the dream are engraved in my mind, and I will never forget them for a long time.

"Girl, have a nightmare?" The night maid patted her on the back carefully, "But scared?" ”

Liu Ruyan exhaled deeply and looked around in a daze. It was determined that it was in her boudoir, and it was determined that Fang Cai was just dreaming, and she finally woke up from her fear.

She waved her hand, motioned for the maid to stop shooting, and lay down with a pale face again.

In her dream, she saw a beautiful face that she had never seen before.

She was sure that she didn't know this woman, but she was inexplicably confident that this person was the love of Gu Fei's heart. Just now, Liu Ruyan dreamed that she secretly poisoned this woman while Gu Fei was away. Liu Ruyan never thought that she would one day do such a life-threatening thing. The reason why she felt frightened was because Liu Ruyan knew that she would indeed do such a thing.

She has always been ruthless in order to fight. Everyone else thinks she is gentle and considerate, and only Liu Ruyan herself knows that she will compete with others since she can remember. When she was young, she was fighting with her eldest sister, who was arrogant and straight, and most of the time she was not her opponent. Seeing the two arguing, my father and mother only thought that the eldest sister had a bad temper and didn't know how to be considerate, but she didn't know that the eldest sister just ate her secret loss.

Liu Ruyan has always felt that although she is competitive, she is domineering in her bones. But not so much as to kill people. But the scene in the dream was too clear for her to feel scared. Would she really kill someone to get Gu Fei's heart?

She didn't dare to think about it, and the more she thought about it, the more terrible she felt. But in an instant, she thought of Gu Fei again, and Liu Ruyan wanted to cry again.

The dream became more and more real, so real that she could see the face of the child born to them. I could hear the child calling her mother and touching the child's face. Liu Ruyan even has a kind of belief that they have really been together for many years. It is true that they love each other for a lifetime. She even remembered many of Gu Fei's unknown little habits, knew what he liked to eat, knew what paper he liked to use, and knew that he must read the military book before going to bed...... These are vivid and can't deceive people.

Plagued by dreams, Liu Ruyan didn't dare to tell anyone, so she could only pin her hopes on the gods and Buddhas.

She wanted to go to the temple and stay for a few days.

"What are you doing in the temple on this snowy day?" She was in a slump, and Liu Weishi didn't dare to force her. was afraid that it would backfire if he was forced to do so, so he just persuaded her euphemistically: "The temple has always been hard, and the food and housing cannot be compared with the family." It's freezing this day, what should you do if you go to freeze? ”

"Mother, I want to go and be quiet." Liu Ruyan was visibly emaciated, like a withered flower.

Seeing his daughter so depressed, Liu Wei's heart became more and more sad: "How many more days would you wait?" When the snow stops and the weather is nice? ”

Liu Ruyan turned her head and didn't speak, obviously making up her mind.

Liu Wei knew that she looked meek, but in fact, her mind was corrected than that of her eldest daughter. If she wants to go out, she can't control it. While wiping tears, I feel sorry for my daughter who is getting thinner. For the sake of a Gu Fei, what kind of daughter did she force to be knowledgeable! Liu Weishi even hated Gu Fei in his heart, and he didn't know what to do with the mud legs in the countryside: "It's okay if you want to go, but you have to take care of it at home." ”

The temple is too bitter, and Yan'er has never suffered such a sin since she was a child. Liu Wei thought about it again and again, so he could only follow her and order his subordinates to take care of it.

Liu Ruyan took the Liu family's carriage to the temple early in the morning three days later.

When the person left, Liu Wei couldn't help but cry again. scolded Gu Fei over and over again, but he had to find a way to fulfill his daughter's wish. It can only be said that Gu Fei's greatest luck is that Yan'er really likes him. If it weren't for this, Liu Weishi would have wanted Liu Weitao to secretly make a move and trample this mud leg under his feet, so that he couldn't go crazy anymore.

She can think of a way to realize her dream, which is naturally not the right way. After all, Gu Fei is not a member of the Liu family at her mercy, she can only manipulate the way of the housemaid in the future and force Gu Fei to compromise.

Just some time ago, the Chengjun Palace's Mansion was going to hold a plum banquet. The young talents of the capital and the noble daughters of the major families were invited. Liu Wei had some friendship with the wife of the second room of the Chengjun Palace, and learned that the city and county palace also handed over an invitation to Gu Fei, a popular man in front of the palace.

Liu Weishi took a deep breath and could only be slightly aggrieved by Yan'er.

With a plan in his heart, no one in the Liu Wei clan dared to speak out, but only dared to operate behind his back. Liu Weitao didn't know her private movements, and if he knew, he was afraid that he would scold her, and she had long hair and short knowledge, and Liu Weitao was also doing her best.

Gu Fei agreed to teach the Liu family, but he did not go to the Liu family with Liu Weitao. I don't know if he saw through Liu Weitao's plan or really felt inconvenient, he set the address of the Liu family to the Gu family. If the Liu family wants to get his guidance, they can come to the student alley in person. Anyway, he is a young man who has not decided to marry, and he is not very good and often goes in and out of the Liu family's mansion.

This reason is upright, and Liu Weitao can't say anything else even if he is dissatisfied. Gu Fei pretended to be confused, but he didn't accept it.

Liu Weitao was so angry that he couldn't help but complain about his daughter's lack of interest. There are so many good sons in the world, why did they hang themselves on Gu Fei's crooked neck tree?

The Liu family is busy with their daughter's family affairs, and many families are also worried about their own girls' family affairs.

Originally, this plum banquet was made by the princess of Chengjun a few years ago with the gimmick of appreciating plums, and gave several sons of the right age in the Chengjun Palace. Later, because it was done too well, it contributed to several good family affairs. The Chengjun Palace's Mansion took over the annual plum banquet, and it has become a common pleasure for the nobles in the capital.

At this plum banquet, all the young talents and nobles of the family came. The invitation was written by the eldest daughter-in-law of the princess of the city and county, in other words, the people who could receive the invitation were very good people. There are those who have a flawed reputation in the family, and they can't enter the plum blossom village of the Chengjun Palace.

The Liu family has received it several times, and this is the third time. The girl of the Liu family has an excellent reputation in aristocratic circles. The sisters of the Liu family are famous for their beauty, and many children are staring at this sister. However, the Liu family refused a few times ago because the girl was infected with wind and cold. This is the first time I have agreed to participate.

Liu Wei's idea hit the plum banquet in the Chengjun Palace, but the harem fell into a tense situation again.

Since the Mid-Autumn Festival Emperor made an exception in August, Lu Li has started the days of domineering.

The emperor's harem beauties are not said to be 3,000, but in fact, there are hundreds of them. Although the emperor favored Concubine Ye of Zhongcui Palace before, he occasionally gave some soup and water to other newcomers. After all, no matter how favored Ye Huiqiong is, she is already old. But after the emperor touched Lu Li, it was different, so extreme that he didn't touch anyone. is full of harem dependents, how do you earn money with Lu Li?

In terms of beauty, they are not as good as Lu Li's fingers. On youth, Lu Li is only sixteen. Although their family is stronger than Lu Li in the world, who can be more noble than the emperor in this harem? No matter how prominent they are, the emperor doesn't like women with prominent backgrounds, they can't take advantage of them at all.

Three whole months. Except for Changle Palace, the emperor never set foot in the residence of any of his concubines.

This kind of complete preference for the treatment that only Ye Guifei enjoyed when she was young in the past has completely fallen on the current Lu Li. Although the rest of the palace had expected this, they still felt desperate when it really happened.

walked a Ye Guifei, and another concubine came.

No, after a few favors, the position of the concubine has also changed. She climbed fast and had become a spirit concubine. Although he has not yet climbed to the position of the fourth concubine, the speed of this promotion is already chilling. How many people in the harem have survived all their lives, and they haven't even climbed up to the position of Sanpin Jieyu. It only took her a few months to outperform everyone.

Let's not talk about how desperate the other unfavored palace concubines were when they saw this, let's just say that the first one who couldn't stand it was Ye Guifei.

"How can Your Majesty do this!"

Ye Huiqiong didn't feel unfair when she was bullied, but now she has fallen into the same situation as other concubines, and she has an irrepressible resentment. She resented Lu Li for robbing her favor, resented the emperor's unkindness, and resented her twins who were suffocated in her stomach before they were born. If it weren't for these two debt collectors who hurt her, she would have been able to dominate her for another ten years!

"Your Majesty will favor a person like this, can she stand this spirit concubine!"

Ye Huiqiong knew her current appearance, and she could no longer arouse the emperor's pity for her. It was hopeless for her to play the emotional card to save the emperor's heart, so she pinned her hopes on the pressure of the court. She spent a lot of effort to instigate the people outside to play, and every three or five times she played, and the spirit concubine was the demon concubine of the country. Let people spread rumors that Lu Li is not coming in the right way, forcing the emperor to share favor, and it is best to dispose of Lu Li.

It has to be said that this move did have an effect. The folds flew into Taichung like snowflakes, and it did have a great impact on the emperor. The emperor didn't expect to be ridiculed by the courtiers at this age and obsessed with beauty, so he really snubbed Lu Li for a while.

However, because of this incident, the emperor was completely annoyed with Ye Huiqiong in his heart.

No one is stupid, there are some things that will not be discovered if they are not done, and once they are done, they will be seen. No matter how hidden Zhong Cui Palace's actions are, the entire harem is still under the control of the emperor. If she wants to hide from the world, she has to have that ability.

There is no doubt that since Qin Liansheng was angered by the emperor last time, the power has also been divided into three people. The emperor re-promoted a great eunuch to serve as an attendant, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs also promoted a grand eunuch to assist in affairs. Now in front of the emperor, the two newcomers seem to have the meaning of fighting against Qin Liansheng. Qin Liansheng lost the ability to cover the sky with one hand in the Internal Affairs Mansion, so naturally he couldn't cover some of Ye Huiqiong's small means.

The emperor angrily rushed into Zhong Cui Palace and slapped Ye Huiqiong fiercely. almost didn't beat Ye Huiqiong.

Ye Huiqiong has never been beaten since she was brought out of the court by Han Lingsu. Even in the early years, when the quantile was still low, she was the only one who beat others. The emperor's slap almost shattered her pride.

"Your Majesty......" Ye Huiqiong couldn't believe it, she looked at the person in front of her in shock, and tears fell down one by one, "For a Lu Li who came out of nowhere, you really did it with your concubine?" ”

The emperor has never touched a woman, this is the first time in his life.

His face flashed ugly, but his anger did not subside: "Didn't I warn you not to stretch your hands too long?" ”

In the emperor's life, what he hated most was that someone took his words as a deaf ear: "Who gave you the courage to stretch out your hand to the court?" Let the courtiers play? You'd dare to think about it......"

Ye Huiqiong didn't expect that her move would touch the emperor's scales.

She was slapped in the face, and the anger and grievances in her heart surged out in an instant: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about, I don't know the concubine!" ”

She didn't admit it, and the emperor's evil fire was even worse.

"Shut up!" The Emperor snorted coldly.

Ye Huiqiong covered her cheeks and smiled sarcastically: "Why is Your Majesty so annoyed?" Are you afraid that others will know that Your Majesty is ashamed? ”

Her eyes were red: "Others don't know, don't think that the concubine doesn't know either." His Majesty's current efforts are nothing more than a request for the Queen. Your Majesty, you are really pitiful, do you think that if you find a woman Wen Cun who is very similar to Han Lingsu, she is Han Lingsu?! She is Lu Li, not Han Lingsu at all. Han Lingsu won't be so despicable, she will only look down on you from above......"

Before the last sentence was finished, the emperor slapped down with a fierce slap.

"I have given you dignity and honor. Even if you did those small actions to Su Su at the beginning, bullying the prince, I turned a blind eye. Haven't I been tolerant enough for you? Haven't I given you enough? Isn't it okay to be grateful? Do you have to let me tell you that you are not worthy? ”

The emperor looked at her coldly, without showing any affection, and tore off all the fig leaf of hypocrisy, "Ye Huiqiong, don't you know what you are in your heart?" With such a big appetite and such a greedy heart, I don't want to see if I have this qualification! Do you deserve it? ”

Ye Huiqiong has a very high opinion of herself, and no one has asked her if she is worthy for many years. A pampered life gave her the illusion that she was above all women. The emperor's words were no less than removing the foundation under her layers of arrogance.

Her eyes were wide open, as if she didn't know the emperor.

…… How could such cold-blooded words come out of his mouth?!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Ye Huiqiong's body trembled, and she trembled uncontrollably, "The concubine gave birth to four children for you!" Two died in the stomach, and there was no merit and hard work! The concubine has been grinding with your ears and temples for 20 years, and they know each other, are these feelings all fake? ! ”

"There is no truth in heaven. The relationship between father and son can be fake, why do you think you can be special? ”

The emperor's words were extremely harsh, like a knife blade slashing at Ye Huiqiong's body, and she shivered from her bones at this moment.

The emperor smiled coldly, slowly squatted down, and pinched her chin: "Ye Huiqiong, haven't you been pampered for a long time, stupid?" Have you forgotten what I was pampered for? ”
