After resting in Tanggu's other courtyard for two days, Yu Xiaocao and his wife, escorted by thousands of brothers from the Firearms Camp, arrived in the capital without incident. During the short three-day trip from Tang Gu to the capital, the traitors were most likely to take advantage of the opportunity to counterattack.
It's okay if the number of people is small, with Xu Wang and Su Zongguan as the two gods of death, it is as difficult as heaven to succeed. I was afraid that they would adopt crowd tactics and carry out suicide attacks. Xiaocao, who was almost four months pregnant, couldn't bear such tossing.
Therefore, after receiving the news that Xu Wang and his wife had landed, the emperor sent a firearms battalion to meet the two meritorious officials. Thousands of brothers from the Firearms Battalion, under the leadership of the vice-commander, marched towards the port of Tanggu in a mighty manner. Those who didn't know it thought that there was another large-scale war on the seashore!
With the invincible escort of the firearms battalion, the rebels would naturally not rush up to deliver food to the brothers in the firearms battalion. This road is still quite safe. The carriage that Xiaocao was riding in was also specially treated, and both shock absorption and furnishings were based on comfort. Even so, after arriving in the capital, Xiaocao slept hard for two days before feeling alive.
As an imperial envoy, after returning to Beijing, he will naturally report to his immediate superior. When Yu Xiaocao appeared in the court hall wearing an official uniform with her inconspicuous belly, and shouted long live to the emperor. Zhu Junfan stepped down from the throne himself, and he bent down to help up this special courtier.
Yu Xiaocao didn't take advantage of the situation, but hugged the emperor's calf, and started to cry: "Your Majesty—I almost won't see you, old man. Woooooo... It doesn't matter if I die, but I don't care." The ideal of yielding a thousand catties per mu has not been realized, and the wish of making the common people no longer hungry has not been realized. Even if the humble minister dies, he can’t close his eyes—oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”
Zhu Junyang didn't expect the little girl to play like this, her phoenix eyes widened, and she stared at the daughter-in-law's hand holding the emperor's calf in extreme displeasure, wishing to chop off that calf!
Emperor: Be bold! You are regicide! Against you! Look at your dog eyes wide, your daughter-in-law can hug me, why don't you cut off your daughter-in-law's hands and my feet
Zhu Junyang: Not willing!
The emperor: I don't want to part with your daughter-in-law, but I am willing to part with you! What a good subject and cousin of mine!
All the ministers in the court couldn't help but feel a little sore when they saw this scene. Originally, Xu Wang's excerpt was a bit exaggerated, saying how miserable Yu Xiaocao's injury was. Now, seeing her slightly protruding belly, she cried like a child. Only then did I remember that the imperial envoy is only an eighteen-year-old woman after all, and the mother of an unborn child.
As for such a mother who almost lost her child, what she was crying about was not the seriousness of her injuries, or the fact that the fetus was almost lost, but that she was worried that she would die at this time, which would delay the progress of the experimental field and delay the national economy and the people's livelihood. Those ministers who got the news that the imperial envoys traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, lived together with Xu Wang, did not do their jobs properly, and stumbling them, felt guilty.
The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched, he hurriedly helped Xiaocao up, and gave her a look: the acting is a bit too much, it's too fake! However, he said with great satisfaction in his mouth: "Ai Qing, it's because I didn't think carefully, which caused you to suffer!"
"If the yield of hybrid rice can be stabilized, no matter how hard it is, it will be worth it!" Yu Xiaocao hurriedly changed into a handkerchief and wiped her eyes. Oh my god, the chili water is too spicy and my eyes are swollen!
Yu Xiaocao's bitter trick won a lot of praise from the court. After the imperial court, Mr. Liu, the old Shangshu of the household department, rushed over and asked expectantly: "Master Yu, the hybrid rice you mentioned can really produce thousands of catties per mu?"
"Of course!" Yu Xiaocao replied firmly. Although the experiment of hybrid rice is a long process, as long as the direction is right, there will always be a day when it will be realized. Mr. Wu's research has already achieved initial results, and it is believed that rice seeds with a yield of one thousand catties per mu will be available soon.
Master Liu looked excited, and asked repeatedly: "What about wheat? Can we also breed good seeds with a yield of one thousand catties per mu?"
In the north, pasta is the main food, and the wheat planting area is relatively wide. If he can produce a thousand catties or more per mu, Mr. Liu can foresee what the future will be like. When he was familiar with the history books, he saw that during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the ropes that threaded the copper coins in the treasury were all rotten, a large amount of surplus grain was piled up in the granary, new millet was piled up with old millet, and there was no warehouse for grain. It's all piled up outside.
At that time, he thought that it would be great if he lived in such a prosperous age. It would be great if he could become a task like Sang Hongyang! Although his current achievements are much worse than Sang Hongyang who assisted Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. But it would be such a great honor to witness the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty when he was able to reach the prosperity of "Ganshi Sufu" during his tenure as Minister of the Household Department!
Xiaocao thought about it. In her previous life, it was not wishful thinking to produce a thousand catties per mu, but now her fertility cannot keep up, and her field management is not very scientific. When you get home, ask Xiaobutianshi.
"In theory, it should be possible. However, Mr. Liu, you also know that the yield of crops cannot rely solely on seeds, there are also scientific planting and management, and there are also requirements for fields, so... don't worry, I will always go to We are working tirelessly in this direction!"
Master Liu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xu Wang: "Master Liu, Master Yu is weak and not suitable for talking about business affairs for a long time. The emperor has granted her a vacation. After the vacation is over, her body will allow it." , let’s talk about this!”
As he said that, without giving Mr. Liu any chance to speak, he protected his daughter-in-law out of the Qianqing Palace.
"His Royal Highness, Concubine Wang, the Queen loves the Concubine Wang so much, she asked the servants to prepare shoulder pads, please..." The eunuch next to the empress was speaking, followed by four strong servants, who carried a shoulder paddle Waiting silently.
"Thank you Empress Empress for your pity, Xiaocao will come to the palace to thank you in person some other day." Woke up early, and the morning court lasted for nearly an hour, which made Xiaocao feel a little tired. After thanking her, with the support of her own man, she sat on the shoulders and was carried out of the palace gate by the servant. The ministers of the next court saw it, and they were very envious of the emperor and queen's favor for her.
What can I do if my eyes are hot? Who told others to be capable? Who made us unable to grow rice with a yield of a thousand catties per mu? The court ministers understood that with Concubine Xu around, the relationship between King Xu and the emperor would only get closer and closer. Whoever wants to drive a wedge between the emperor and King Xu will probably be able to predict the end!
For a long period of time after that, Zhu Junyang realized that he had a lot of success in court and errands. Those guys who always liked to sing against him and make troubles in the past seem to have learned how to be good. By chance, he found out what those people were thinking, and he was a little dumbfounded. It turned out that it wasn't because of my ability that I was recognized, but because my family had a good wife!
After getting the grass for the holiday, the days of "raising pigs" began. Eat and sleep every day, sleep and eat. Her man loves her so much that he won't let her do anything. Fortunately, she was not restricted from going out, or she would have gone crazy.
However, she can't be as casual as usual, where she can go wherever she wants. She must also be accompanied by her man, and if the man is not available, she must be accompanied by her "fucking brother". You can't go far, you can only choose between your mother's house, your godmother's house, and a few girlfriends' houses. Because, these places are not too far from Prince Xu's Mansion.
King Xu was not as happy as his wife. When he returned to Beijing, he was sent by the emperor to the Xishan camp to lead the actual combat exercises. Zhu Junyang knew that Yuan Zi's status was extraordinary, and when he was not around, he would specially ask it to help take care of his wife.
After so many times, Xiao Butianshi felt that he was very annoying. Xiaocao is also its master, and her safety is also its responsibility, so why use him to babble over and over again
The place Xiaocao goes the most is of course her natal home! At the beginning of August, my sister-in-law gave her a little nephew. It has been more than three months now, and he is very cute. What she likes most is sitting on the warm kang, watching her little nephew blushing and trying to turn over. When he turned over with great difficulty, she turned him over in a wicked way. The little guy was not annoyed, and continued to carry out his great cause of turning around.
"You, you will bully your nephew!" Seeing his grandson being turned over by his little aunt for the nth time, the grandmother Liu felt a little distressed. She gouged out her daughter's eyes, hugged her grandson to her side, and fed him some warm water .
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo on my daughter. I'm so pitiful, no one loves to look upon…" Yu Xiaocao covered her eyes and pretended to cry.
Liu's expression was helpless: "How old is he, and he still competes with his little nephew! I'm almost a mother, and I'm not a decent one yet!"
Xiao Lian, who had just found out she was pregnant, was sewing a tiger-headed hat for her little nephew, and said with a smile, "Little sister, who said that you are unloved and unloved? King Xu almost put you on the ground." On the head, in the mouth!"
Yu Xiaocao stretched out her devil claws to tickle her tickle: "Wow! You actually made fun of me, look at my one-finger magical skills..."
"Slow down, my little ancestors, take it easy! Cao'er, your sister and you both have two bodies, so don't mess around, be careful stretching!" Seeing that the little daughter was neither serious nor serious, Mrs. Liu was frightened. I was in a cold sweat.
The youngest daughter had experienced that terrible kidnapping just after she became pregnant, and the child was almost lost. If it wasn't for the reassurance from the imperial physician and her daughter, the fetus and mother are very healthy now, and Liu would still be so worried that she couldn't sleep all night.
Seeing her mother's worried expression, Yu Xiaocao hurriedly sat up straight, looking like a good baby. Looking at the chubby little nephew wriggling on the kang, even if he encountered obstacles, he didn't cry or make noise. She laughed and said: "Feng'er's temper must have followed the elder brother's. It can be seen that she has a good temper."
"Little sister, I don't like it when you say that. It seems like I have a bad temper!" It's almost the twelfth lunar month, and there are more trivial matters in the house. Sister-in-law talk.
