Concubine Xian nodded and said firmly: "Yes."
Concubine Liang Gui's eyes froze and her body froze.
Concubine Xian hurriedly called, "Your Majesty's Concubine."
Concubine Liang waved her hand and sat down on the hat chair.
Concubine Xian asked anxiously, "Concubine, what are we going to do?"
Concubine Liang Gui took a while to regain her senses, and her eyes fell on Concubine Xian's face.
Concubine Xian said: "In just over a year, I was promoted from Liangyi to Xi Zhaorong, and I am still favored by the emperor. If I give birth to a boy and a half girl, will it be stable?"
"Impossible." Concubine Liang Gui interrupted Concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian kept silent
Concubine Liang Gui said, "Why is Liao Qingqing?"
Concubine Xian answered, "But we can't stop Xi Zhaorong."
"who said it?"
Concubine Xian said: "Xi Zhaorong seems to be heartless, but in fact, she is usually well-behaved and has never acted arrogantly. Her words may seem unbelievable, but in fact she is not leaking. She gets along well with the concubines and concubines of the harem. Everyone is very disciplined, and it is not a simple character."
Concubine Liang Gui glanced at Concubine Xian and asked, "Are you afraid of her?"
"Concubine doesn't mean that."
"There is no perfect person in the world."
Hearing that, Concubine Xian's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked, "Is there a way for the noble concubine?"
Concubine Liang Gui smiled softly, and took a sip from the tea bowl.
I was thinking about Liao Qingqing.
But Liao Qingqing didn't think about Concubine Liang.
She followed Emperor Jingli to the Agriculture Department of the Ministry of Housing. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw a straight bluestone road with various plants growing on both sides. Many men and women in uniform were hoeing, picking flowers, and erecting shelves. and many more.
No one thought that Emperor Jingli would come.
Surprised one by one, they hurriedly bowed down.
"You're all busy." Emperor Jingli still held Liao Qingqing's hand and said to the director of the Department of Agriculture, "Come here for me."
"Yes."
"By the way, by the way, I also called the Minister of the Ministry of Housing."
"Yes."
Emperor Jingli dragged Liao Qingqing into the hall of the Department of Agriculture.
After a while, the minister of the household, who was sweating profusely, arrived.
As soon as he entered the hall, he hurriedly greeted Emperor Jingli and Liao Qingqing.
"Be flat." Emperor Jingli raised his hand and asked, "Lord Shang Shu, sit down."
"Yes." Minister of the Ministry of Commerce sat down.
Only then did Emperor Jingli open his mouth to inquire about the recent affairs of the Minister of Household and the Director of the Department of Agriculture, to which the Minister of Household and the Director replied respectfully.
Don't dare to hide anything.
Emperor Jingli changed the subject and asked, "What has the Department of Agriculture and Materials achieved recently?"
Results
Nature is a matter of agricultural discovery or yield increase.
But this kind of thing really doesn't come easy.
The Minister of Household and the Director of Agricultural Products looked at each other.
The director of agriculture said truthfully: "Returning to the emperor, there is no result."
"Oh, I have some results here."
As soon as Emperor Jingli's voice fell, the Minister of Household and the Director of the Department of Agriculture were both startled, and then looked at Emperor Jingli in surprise at the same time.
Emperor Jingli glanced at Fusheng.
Fusheng immediately offered a potato seedling in his hand.
Emperor Jingli said, "Put it on the table."
Fusheng let go.
Emperor Jingli said, "Come and have a look."
The two ministers bowed to the table and looked at an unfamiliar plant with oval balls attached to its roots. They had never seen it before, and they couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, what is this?"
"Potato." Emperor Jingli said.
"Potato?" The two ministers of the household said at the same time.
"Yes, edible potatoes." Emperor Jingli looked proud.
"Eatable?" Not only did Emperor Jingli attach importance to population and farming, but they also attached importance to it. Seeing that this crop called "potato" appeared and was edible, the two asked urgently.
"Yes." Emperor Jingli said.
The two ministers of the Ministry of Housing immediately picked up the potatoes and gnawed.
"Wait." Emperor Jingli said.
The two ministers of the household looked at Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli looked at Liao Qingqing.
Liao Qingqing said: "Hexiang, bring the boiled potatoes to the two adults to eat."
"Yes." He Xiang carried the basket to the two of them, and offered two dark potatoes: "Please peel off the skin of the potatoes before eating."
The two ministers of the household department picked up the black potato dubiously, glanced at Emperor Jingli Liao Qingqing, and then their eyes fell on the black potato.
I was a little disgusted in my heart, but I still peeled off the potato skin according to the words.
Just peeled off a layer of potato skin, and saw the orange-yellow potato core.
Accompanied by the sweet aroma, the two were surprised.
He looked at each other and took a small bite.
In an instant, the soft and waxy fragrance spread in the mouths of the two of them.
The two are different from Emperor Jingli. They shuttle between various well-known and unknown plants and flowers all year round, and they specially select the species that can be eaten and can satisfy their hunger. The most important thing is to understand the taste of edible species.
This potato is absolutely delicious!
The two were immediately excited and took two more bites.
It was too late to peel the potatoes, and the mouth was full of blackness.
They don't mind at all.
But he was reluctant to finish eating, so he kept half of it in his hand, his body trembled slightly, and then with a "thump", he knelt down to Emperor Jingli, suppressed his inner surging, and tried to calm down: "Your Majesty, this thing is indeed edible."
Emperor Jingli said, "That's right, I and Xi Zhaorong have already eaten."
"I don't know how to plant this thing?" Without waiting for Emperor Jingli to ask, the Minister of the Household asked directly.
Emperor Jingli looked at Liao Qingqing and smiled.
Liao Qingqing was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that the potatoes he transplanted would really catch the eyes of these high-ranking officials.
She smiled at Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli smiled and said: "This thing is not my credit, it was planted by Xi Zhaorong."
Xi Zhaorong
The two ministers of the Ministry of Housing looked at Xi Zhaorong at the same time.
They have only seen Xi Zhaorong once, but they are deeply impressed by Xi Zhaorong.
On the day when the land was farmed, all the other concubines came to go through the motions. Only this Xi Zhaorong and the Queen Mother treated the land sincerely. Later, a small green snake appeared in Tanaka, which frightened the other concubines to lose their temper.
Xi Zhaorong was calm and calm, and caught the little green snake.
The little green snake was released in the eyes of everyone.
At that time, because of the harassment of the little green snake, they knelt down to the empress dowager Jingli and admitted their mistake, but they carelessly violated the taboo of destroying their own fields. Emperor's reputation was also damaged.
They were sweating from fear.
Every time I think of this, I have lingering fears, and my admiration and gratitude to Xi Zhaorong are even more indescribable.
Unexpectedly, this potato was planted by Xi Zhaorong.
How much power does Xi Zhaorong have
The two ministers of the Ministry of Housing were shocked.
Emperor Jingli continued: "This potato was originally an umbrella flower from the northwest, and I gave it to Xi Zhaorong. Xi Zhaorong noticed the difference and transplanted it into the vegetable field. After nearly half a year of careful cultivation and care, it was Grows the edible potatoes you see."
It was so!
The two ministers of the household's admiration for Liao Qingqing reached a new level, and they turned to Liao Qingqing and knelt down: "Chen, please ask Xi Zhaorong to teach me how to grow potatoes, and I'm willing to die for this."
?
Is it so exaggerated
Although Liao Qingqing is Xi Zhaorong, she lives in the harem for a long time, and all she accepts are bows and other salutes.
It was the first time that two big men knelt down on her so solemnly.
The words were sonorous and powerful.
Scary.
She was a little overwhelmed and looked at Emperor Jingli subconsciously.
Emperor Jingli leaned forward slightly, approached her, and said, "You are the favorite concubine, so don't be afraid."
?
Spoil a ghost!
She twitched the corners of her mouth and said with a strong aura, "You two adults, you don't have to make this big gift, everything is easy to talk about."
Good talk good talk
Emperor Jingli pursed his lips and suppressed a smile.
Liao Qingqing noticed that Emperor Jingli was laughing at her, and gave Emperor Jingli a blank look.
Look at the two ministers of the Ministry of Housing.
The Minister of the Ministry of Housing asked in surprise: "Xi Zhaorong promised to enlighten me?"
Liao Qingqing said: "The emperor and I came here to tell you how to grow potatoes? Originally, this kind of thing has been done well, and the people of the Wei Dynasty will be blessed."
The two ministers of the household were overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Xi Zhaorong is tall and graceful, and the ministers admire him."
"...you get up."
"Xie Xi Zhaorong."
Liao Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two ministers standing up.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two ministers stood firm, they said together, "Let's start."
"??? What started?" Liao Qingqing asked.
"Grow potatoes."
"..." So anxious, Liao Qingqing was embarrassed. Seeing that Emperor Jingli was also "starting now", she had to ask, "Where do we start now?"
The Minister of the Chamber of Commerce said: "Start from the moment the seed falls."
"It's not grown from seeds." Liao Qingqing said.
"Isn't it planted from seeds?" Hubu Shangshu and the two exclaimed, "What was it planted from?"
"Roots." Liao Qingqing pointed to the potatoes.
There are many crops grown with rhizomes, such as sweet potatoes and lotus root, so this is not surprising.
The two ministers of the Ministry of Household quickly accepted it.
When Liao Qingqing found the entry point, he knew what to say, starting from the selection of rhizomes and cutting into pieces, watering, breaking the ground to sprout, picking flowers and buds until the potato seedlings withered and the potatoes were still growing.
She spoke slowly and slowly, and everyone in the hall was fascinated.
Including Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli always thought that the vegetables that Liao Qingqing referred to were all kinds of small greens and flowers, but they were only to be taken care of by Hexiang and others.
And it did so well.
Every time she germinates, every time she waters, she speaks in a straightforward manner, her eyes are gentle but confident, something he has never seen before.
It's like it's glowing.
He watched intently, his heart full of Liao Qingqing.
Can't tolerate anyone or anything.
How many surprises does this Liao Qingqing have for him
He had never felt so happy before.
He didn't even know that his eyes were full of infatuation at this moment.
After Liao Qingqing finished talking about the growth of potatoes in an orderly manner, the Minister of Household and the Director of the Department of Agriculture opened their mouths in shock.
I really did not expect Xi Zhaorong to be so knowledgeable.
so amazing!
They almost knelt down again!
Liao Qingqing went on to emphasize: "Potato is an unintentionally discovered agricultural product. We know that it can be eaten when it is cooked, and it is beneficial, but we don't know whether it is harmful or not. We need to experiment a lot."
The two ministers hurriedly replied, "This is natural."
"In addition, we have to figure out its growth cycle, so that we can plant at the most suitable time and harvest the most potatoes, so as not to occupy land resources, right?"
"Yes yes yes." The two households repeatedly said yes.
"Then the rest, I will go back to Lisheng Pavilion to tidy up and send it to the Agriculture Department. If you have any questions or progress, please send it to Lisheng Pavilion, how about that?" Liao Qingqing asked. .
"Follow Xi Zhaorong's instructions."
"That's it."
"Yes."
Liao Qingqing turned to Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli had been sitting beside him all the time listening and watching, and when he noticed Liao Qingqing's gaze, he immediately returned to his senses and asked, "It's over?"
Liao Qingqing nodded and said, "It's over."
"Okay, then let's go."
"Um."
"Congratulations to the emperor and Xi Zhaorong." The director of the Department of Agriculture, Minister of Household Affairs, and others hurriedly saluted.
Watching Emperor Jingli and Liao Qingqing walk away.
The admiration for Liao Qingqing echoed in their chests.
Emperor Liao Qingqing Jingli stayed in the Agricultural Department for an afternoon, and was a little tired. He returned to Lisheng Pavilion in the imperial carriage. At this time, dinner was already prepared. Just after dinner, Fusheng brought the book .
Emperor Jingli critiques excerpts.
Liao Qingqing was writing about the growth of potatoes on the table next to her. She really wanted to do something for Da Wei.
She didn't put down the pen until Emperor Jingli had approved the book.
After lying on the bed, Emperor Jingli asked Liao Qingqing about potatoes.
He is willing to let Liao Qingqing connect with the Department of Agriculture.
However, the Department of Agriculture and Materials is a little far away from Lisheng Pavilion, so Liao Qingqing cannot be tired.
Lisheng Pavilion can't enter other men.
So Emperor Jingli said: "I will assign you a fast-footed eunuch. Usually, you communicate with the Agriculture Department and let him pass it on. If you need to be present in person, how about you go?"
Liao Qingqing turned to look at Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli asked, "What do you see me doing?"
Liao Qingqing put his forehead on Emperor Jingli's shoulder, rubbed it up like a kitten, and said in a soft voice, "Aiya, Your Majesty, you are really good, too good, how come you are so good? You are from the past to the present. The best and most handsome emperor."
Emperor Jing Li was in a good mood when he was slapped, and said with a smile, "You have made progress in your flattery."
"Nonsense, the concubine shot the dragon fart!"
Emperor Jingli burst out laughing.
Liao Qingqing hugged Emperor Jingli's arm and asked, "Your Majesty, is what the concubine said wrong?"
"exactly."
"That's for sure."
Emperor Jingli looked at Liao Qingqing with a smile, this little woman, sometimes stupid, sometimes cowardly, sometimes strong, sometimes cunning, sometimes soft, doesn't flatter him like the women in the harem, follow him.
But why did he despise her so much.
His eyes suddenly became a little slack, and he felt the change in his body. He quickly pulled his mind back, not to think about it, and then reached out and squeezed Liao Qingqing's smooth face.
"Ah, Your Majesty, you are pinching your concubine's face again, it hurts." Liao Qingqing cried.
"It just hurts you."
"Why are you so bad, the concubine pinches you too."
"Come on, hiss, it hurts."
"You let your concubine squeeze it."
"Okay, I ask you to pinch it, so you can pinch it."
"Of course the concubine listens to the emperor."
"Still pinching?"
"Um."
"Pinch again."
"Um!"
"… "
In the sound of Emperor Jingli's "hissing", the night gradually calmed down, and Liao Qingqing quickly fell asleep. Emperor Jingli looked at the little red marks on his waist, laughed suddenly, turned around and kissed Liao Qingqing Forehead, and fell asleep.
The next morning, after Liao Qingqing greeted Concubine Liang Gui, Madam Chang came to look for Liao Qingqing again. This time, Liao Qingqing did not want to stay in the Shouxi Palace for a long time, and told the Queen Mother directly that she would come back to grow vegetables.
Unexpectedly, the queen mother agreed immediately.
Liao Qingqing started the vegetable planting mode. She planted potatoes with sincerity. Not only did she write about potato planting, but she also studied soil, climate, and Dawei Yuzhi.
While the other concubines were thinking about how to win Emperor Jingli's favor, Liao Qingqing was either in the experimental field or in the study. Several times when Emperor Jingli went to Lisheng Pavilion, Liao Qingqing actually went to stay at the Agricultural Department.
Emperor Jingli: "..."
On this day, Emperor Jingli finished approving the book and came to Lisheng Pavilion happily. He did not let Fusheng inform him and went directly into the study, where Liao Qingqing was writing something.
He said, "Concubine Ai is busy."
Liao Qingqing raised her head and said in surprise, "Your Majesty, you are here."
"Um."
"The concubine asks Hexiang to pour water for you."
"En." Emperor Jingli picked up a book and read it.
Liao Qingqing began to draw potatoes, sprouted potatoes, and sprouted potato pieces. As soon as she looked up, Emperor Jingli was gone. She put down her pen and returned to the hall, where she saw Emperor Jingli sitting on the imperial concubine and reading the book of sages.
She stepped forward and said, "Emperor—" Her word "上" hasn't been uttered yet.
Emperor Jingli suddenly got up and walked towards the inner room.
?
what's going on
Liao Qingqing turned to look at Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli walked up to the screen and suddenly replied, "Do potatoes look better than me?"
?
Where to where
The author has something to say:-
Emperor Jingli: Potatoes look better than me
Liao Qingqing: Well.
Emperor Jingli: Huh? ?
