Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 95;

There were two people making samples, and the other accomplishments also stepped forward to do it.

To be honest, the boiled potatoes didn't really taste much.

"Mr. Wanfu Township, last time I heard you say that potatoes need to be cooked with spices to have a better flavor."

"I wonder if it's possible to try it today?"

Lu Yaoyao nodded with a smile.

"Then please wait a moment, Your Majesty. The servant girl will make two simple dishes for you and the adults to taste."

"Oh? Mr. Wanfu Township also knows how to cook?"

Emperor Hongwen was a little surprised.

"It made His Majesty laugh."

"You go."

Lu Yaoyao bowed and withdrew.

A little more than a quarter of an hour later, she returned with several women.

Each holds two white porcelain plates in their hands.

"It looks good, Mr. Xiang is really a Huizhilanxin."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

Lu Yaoyao gave a salute and continued, "Your Majesty came here very rarely, and my daughter just made a dessert with sweet potatoes on her own initiative."

"Oh? Submit it here and introduce it to me and all my ministers."

The first dish is today's protagonist, potatoes.

"This is what the maid first came to ignore to study. The hot and sour potato shreds are cold dishes, and they are most suitable for eating in hot weather."

"It looks good, I have to try it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li De who was beside him hurriedly stepped forward to inspect the dishes.

After confirming that there was no problem, Emperor Hongwen moved his chopsticks.

"Huh? This taste is strange, this spicy taste, is it dogwood?"

"No, it doesn't have the astringency of dogwood. What do you use for it to be spicy?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, what I use is chili peppers, which I discovered by accident."

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Hongwen took a deep look at her.

"You have discovered a lot of things."

Lu Yaoyao smiled embarrassingly.

"What is this pepper, can you let me see it?"

"of course."

Lu Yaoyao ordered the woman behind him to fetch some peppers.

"what?"

"Isn't this pepper?"

After seeing the pepper in Lu Yaoyao's mouth clearly, Emperor Hongwen spoke in surprise.

"Your Majesty knows this thing?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know that peppers are planted in the emperor's garden."

Li De said with a smile.

"I thought this thing was something to enjoy, but I never thought it would be a spice."

"But what do you call it a pepper?"

"When I was young, I asked my servants to buy shoe flower seeds. Later, after learning that this thing can be used for seasoning, I also asked my servants what it is."

"It's just that the servant has forgotten, but I vaguely remember what pepper is. The servant thinks that she has a spicy taste, so she has the name pepper."

Emperor Hongwen smiled and nodded.

"Your name is also appropriate."

As he said that, he asked all the ministers below to have a taste of the hot and sour potato shreds.

His eyes fell on another dish.

"This is a dessert made from sweet potatoes by the courtiers. It's called shredded sweet potatoes. Try it, Your Majesty."

"Not bad, not bad. I never thought that Wanfu Xiangjun still has such superb cooking skills."

"Not only did they discover the god-given food, sweet potatoes and potatoes, but they also researched the dishes. It is really a blessing for the people of Dongzhou."

"It's not in vain that I gave you this title of ten thousand blessings."

Lu Yaoyao quickly saluted and thanked her.

After waiting for a while, Wenxuan Xiaopao, who had been staring down, came back.

"Your Majesty, the potatoes have been harvested."

"Oh? Is there a weighing?"

Wen Xuan nodded quickly. At this time, Wen Xuan's face was flushed, and he didn't know whether it was from the sun or excitement.

"Thirty-one stones, your Majesty's yield of this mu of land is thirty-one stones."

"what!"

Everyone was in an uproar, and Emperor Hongwen was quite shocked.

"really?"

"Quickly, let me see."

Everyone went directly to the place where the other party's potatoes were, and weighed them again.

When he got the exact number again, Emperor Hongwen laughed heartily.

"Okay, okay, it is the blessing of my people in Dongzhou to get this divine food."

After he was happy, he turned his head and glanced at the side where Gao Yanming and the others were, and said lightly, "Do you have any doubts, gentlemen?"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, for receiving this divine food."

The glaring numbers are all displayed, and they have been tasted, and they still suspect that they are out of their minds.

"Wanfu Township's offering of such divine food is indeed a great achievement."

Gao Yanming smiled lightly.

But the next moment, his words changed.

"I am very fortunate that Mr. Xiang has been living in the capital in the past. If I live in the Lu family in Jiangdong, I am afraid."

"What does Prime Minister Gao mean by that?"

Wen Songtao said in a deep voice.

Lu Yaoyao on the side rolled his eyes slightly, this Gao Yanming has a vicious heart.

This matter must make the Lu family guilty of treason. The implication at this time is to say that it is a good thing that she has been in the capital. If it is in the Lu family in Jiangdong, these sweet potatoes and potatoes will be the godsend of Northern Chu. .

"The truth is, I just want to say that if Mr. Xiang lives in Jiangdong, I'm afraid he won't be able to find this god-given food."

"What does Wenxiang think it means?"

Gao Yanming still smiled lightly.

Emperor Hongwen's eyes sank, and he glanced at Gao Yanming. He was in a good mood and felt a little unhappy at this moment.

If this old thing doesn't bother him for a moment, he won't be happy.

"The matter of the Lu family is still to be investigated. Even if the Lu family is really guilty, it has nothing to do with Wanfu Township Lord."

"It is well known that she is a daughter of the Lu family, but she has lived in the capital since she was a child, and rarely has contact with the Lu family in Jiangdong."

"Today she offered the god-given food and made meritorious service to the country."

"I have always been very clear about rewards and punishments."

What he said clearly told everyone that the crime of the Lu family has not yet been convicted, even if the Lu family is really convicted, it has nothing to do with Lu Yaoyao, she has meritorious service.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Wen Songtao hastily shouted and bowed down.

"Your Majesty is wise."

The offerings were also handed over.

"The old minister didn't mean to speculate on accusations, it's just that the god-given food and Dongzhou are too important."

"Your Majesty thinks that you should be careful. Just now, His Majesty also said that the Xiang Jun has little contact with the Lu family. I don't doubt this, but if they are rare, at least there is still a connection."

"Don't be afraid of [-], just in case. I think this farm should be controlled."

"I heard that a lot of sweet potatoes were harvested on the Zhuangzi last year. In order to prevent leakage, I feel that these things should be temporarily managed by the court."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Lu Yaoyao, and asked with a light smile, "What do you think, Mr. Xiang?"

"not so good."

Lu Yaoyao directly turned back.

"Your Majesty, my daughter thinks that what Prime Minister Gao said just now makes no sense."

"It's even all bullshit."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and Emperor Hongwen was also a little stunned.

"Your Majesty grew up in the countryside and spoke a bit vulgarly. I hope Your Majesty will not take the blame."

"It's okay, what you say about Gao Xiang is unreasonable, then tell me, why is it unreasonable?"

Emperor Hongwen was very displeased with this high profile, and now seeing Lu Yaoyao beating him, he was very happy.

"I said before that whether it's sweet potatoes or potatoes, I was lucky enough to find them in the mountains."

"That means this thing has already existed, and it's not limited to our East Continent."

"The meaning of Gao Xiang's words just now, if my servant understands correctly, he means that these sweet potatoes and potatoes are unique to Dongzhou."

"As long as it is found and owned by places other than Dongzhou, it is treason by the ministers and the Lu family."

"Does your Majesty think this makes sense?"

Everyone followed her words and thought, indeed, sweet potatoes and potatoes have existed for a long time, and they grew in the countryside.

She, Lu Yaoyao, could find out, so couldn't others?
