Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 602 Imperial Commissioner
What a cornfield!
Princess Kunxing walked over quickly, Jianwen and Ziwei followed closely behind the elder sister.

Princess Kunxing saw that the corn cob had grown very big, so she stepped forward and broke off one.

Gently peel off the outer leaf skin, revealing a white, tender and yellowish corn.

Ignoring the strange eyes around him, Kun Xing opened his small mouth and gently bit down a few corns.

A sweet taste enters the mouth, it is really delicious.

Princess Kunxing closed her eyes, she was recalling what her father said once:

"When the corn is not ripe, the kernels are full of sweet water.

As the corn nears maturity, it becomes less watery, like thick milk.

When the corn is really ripe, the kernel congeals harden...  

Corn is not only mature before it can be made into corn flour, corn that is close to maturity can be eaten raw, or it can be cooked and eaten directly. "

Thinking of this, Princess Kunxing opened those beautiful big eyes:
"According to what my father said, the corn is close to maturity, which means that it can be eaten without watering now."

Princess Kunxing will never have the slightest doubt about her father's words, she is his loyal little fan girl.

Princess Kunxing turned around and handed the corn to Jianwen and Ziwei:

"It's delicious, try it!"

"Ah... this is raw corn..."

Although Jianwen and Ziwei are rural girls who grew up in the countryside, they don't know anything about corn.

After all, this thing is a new breed that Father introduced after they entered the palace.

"It's delicious, try it!"

Seeing Jianwen and Ziwei hesitated, Kunxing didn't know if her sister was shy or scared, so she encouraged her again.

"Okay, since the eldest sister let me eat, I'll try it."

Jianwen took a small bite of the corn, and after chewing it, she immediately took another big bite and handed it to Ziwei:

"Well, good...delicious..."

Seeing that her two older sisters said it was delicious, Ziwei didn't hesitate anymore, took the corn and started eating.

"Well, it's really delicious, the corn doesn't need to be watered anymore..."

Everyone else looked at the three handsome teenagers curiously, speechless.

They've been growing corn for a while and haven't eaten raw corn yet.

In this regard, they cannot be blamed for their ignorance. When the corn was grown, no one told them that the corn could be eaten in this way.

In fact, the Zhu Cihong brothers know that the corn seedlings here are all cultivated by them.

Since they were transferred away suddenly, they didn't think to tell everyone about it.

Kunxing turned around and came to the young man on the farm:
"Are you the head of the farm?"

The young man shook his head:

"No, I'm just responsible for the security of the farm. The manager and some workers were temporarily transferred by the governor's office to fight the disaster."

The farm manager was absent, and Princess Kunxing could only let the young man in front of her manage the farm temporarily.

Princess Kunxing nodded slightly:

"To tell you the truth, our true identity is the imperial envoy of the imperial court, and now I appoint you as the head of the farm temporarily.

In order to save water, this batch of corn does not need to be watered anymore, and someone will break off the corn and distribute it to everyone immediately. "

Hearing that Princess Kunxing and the others are the current ministers, the farm security almost freaked out.

But when he heard that the imperial envoy wanted to share their corn, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed:

"Greetings to the imperial envoy, if we save this piece of corn on the tens of thousands of acres of land on the farm, it will be the blood and sweat of thousands of people on the farm! Your lord can't divide it!"

"Meet the imperial envoy!"

When the people present heard that Kunxing and the others were imperial envoys, they all knelt down and kowtowed.

Kun Xing hurriedly waved his hand:
"Everyone get down quickly, God will not bless me, let my people suffer, but we must use our own strength to save ourselves, our fate is beyond our control.

If we want to defeat the evil God, we must unite closely, and we must not have any selfishness. As long as we persist for a period of time, the people of Ming Dynasty will eventually defeat God.

The water in the reservoir is life-saving water for the people in this area. It does not belong to any individual or collective. I ordered the gates to be opened to save the people down the mountain. "

"Thank you, Mr. Imperial Envoy!"

"Long live Daming!"

The people at the bottom of the mountain who came to grab water heard that not only did they have water, but they were also given fresh corn.

Excitedly, they kowtowed to Kun Xing on the ground again, and shouted long live.

Although the new farm steward was heartbroken, he dared not say a single word of disapproval.

Just now the imperial envoy has made it very clear that if he comes out to object, he will definitely be punished.

The sluice was slowly raised, and the water in the reservoir was released and flowed down the channel into a nearby pond.

Many deep pits have also been dug in the pond, and the water in the pond is enough for a period of time.

There wasn't much water, but when the people saw the gates being released, they all ran back to clean up the debris in the pond.

But no one moved the cornfield, which surprised Kun Xingjianwen and the others.

The people are kind-hearted people of Ming Dynasty, and the rice they donated is enough for a few days.

The water from the farm has been put into the pond, and they don't have the heart to grab the corn from the farm anymore.

"My lord, what about the corn?"

Seeing that the people did not want corn, the new manager of the farm was completely moved, and hurriedly asked Princess Kunxing.

"You go to gather the farm workers, break off all the corn, keep some for yourself, and distribute the rest to the nearby people."

"obey"

This time the farm steward agreed without hesitation, and turned around to gather the workers to break the corn.

Kunxing led his troops to the nearest village and found many people cleaning up garbage in the pond.

Seeing the arrival of the imperial envoy, the people all smiled gratefully to Princess Kunxing and others.

Although it was a trivial matter, it made the three princesses of Wen Ziwei feel very proud, and it also made them feel the simplicity of the people.

Kunxing and others returned to the reservoir, and the workers who managed the sluice saw the imperial envoy coming, and rushed to see him.

"Don't be too polite!"

The kind princess Kunxing supported him and refused him to kowtow to herself again.

Kunxing believes that as a princess of Ming Dynasty, it is right to do something for the people, and it can be regarded as sharing the worries of the father!
Kunxing turned around and looked at the villages down the mountain and asked:

"How long will the water in the reservoir be enough?"

"My lord, there are more than a dozen villages at the foot of the mountain, with nearly 5 people. In addition to the evaporation in the hot weather, the water in the reservoir is enough for at most half a month."

Princess Kunxing nodded:
"Well, it's already very good, there shouldn't be enough water here!"

"Return to the adults, I can't finish it, the bottom is a little deep, far below the position of the sluice."

"As long as you can't release it, you can use it for yourself. On behalf of the imperial court, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

After finishing speaking, Princess Kunxing waved to the uncle and led his subordinates back.

It took another two hours before Princess Kunxing and the others walked down the mountain.

"Sister, are Shaanxi and Gansu the only ones affected by drought?"

Back on the carriage, the three princesses began to change their clothes. Ziwei asked her sister softly after getting dressed.

The carriage they used was exchanged from the system when Zhu Youjian went to Fengyang, and was later given to Kunxing.

When Kunxing heard Ziwei's question, she shook her head slightly:
"Master Sun said that Shanxi, Henan and other places have this problem, but it's not very serious."

"Sister, if everyone is like Shaanxi, it will be troublesome. The court may not be able to save the people."

Hearing what Jianwen said, Kunxing thought for a while and said:

"If it really comes to that time, Daming has only one way to emigrate, and move the people in the disaster-stricken areas to the south!"
