Chapter 2245 That’s right!!
Since he was ready to give it a try, Wang Yue certainly didn't refuse, but he still felt it was a little unreliable. He looked at Li Chuan who was full of expectation and said tentatively, "I know the reason why you want me to be your brother-in-law is just to let your sister go back and give an explanation to the emperor.

Rong'er is my disciple after all, I can promise you, but I will just forget about the official duties."

Li Chuan didn't expect that Wang Yue would understand his true thoughts at once. He knew that he could no longer pretend to be stupid with smart people, otherwise he would become a fool.

But he felt that his sister really liked Wang Yue, so he said seriously, "Brother-in-law, I did have a plan, but it is also true that my sister likes you, but I don't know how much she likes you."

Wang Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This man even called him brother-in-law. He waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and go back with your sister. She brought so many sweet potatoes and potatoes this time. Those ignorant people won't believe it so easily."

Li Chuan didn't care after hearing this. He even said with some pride, "Before I came back, I had someone spread the word. As long as someone visits Chengdu through merchants, they will know that these two crops have high yields.

I believe that even without the promotion of the court, the common people will cultivate it themselves. After all, this thing does not occupy good farmland at all, so it doesn’t matter if the court officials don’t believe it.”

Wang Yue looked at Li Chuan's smug look and shook his head helplessly. This kid did have some ideas, but he still thought too simply.

In the long run, it will naturally be promoted slowly. After all, people want to have enough food to eat, so they certainly don’t mind having more harvests.

However, if Li Rong wanted to gain great reputation in a short period of time, he had to obtain vigorous promotion from the court and let everyone understand that it was Li Rong who wanted them to do this and that it was Li Rong who ensured their food.

Only in this way can Li Rong die a happy death, gain the power of faith and change her destiny.

Wang Yue would not tell Li Chuan about these things. Seeing that Li Chuan didn't care, he said seriously, "Prince, don't underestimate those noble families. They can prevent the people from growing these high-yield varieties, and then secretly grow them themselves to make profits. This is their usual way of controlling the people."

Li Chuan's face changed after hearing Wang Yue's words, because what Wang Yue said made a lot of sense. It was by means like this that the aristocratic families made many people their slaves. He felt that he had to help.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Since Lord Wang is willing to marry my sister, why don't you write a letter of marriage proposal and I will take it back to show my father?"

Wang Yue saw that Li Chuan was looking forward to marrying his sister, and thought that it would be nice to have such a brother-in-law. Maybe he could really use Li Chuan to complete all his tasks.

Thinking of this, Wang Yue wrote a letter, and Li Chuan couldn't wait to put away his homework after finishing it, and then called Li Rong to go together.

Li Chuan knew that this was the first time his sister had done this seriously, so he wanted to give her some support, so he was thinking about what to do on the way.
Li Rong saw that her brother was worried, so she asked about it, and then Li Chuan told him about Wang Yue's concerns.

Li Rong thought of this possibility and was a little worried at first, but after a little thought, she immediately said nonchalantly, "We have the supply, and the noble families can only buy through us. Moreover, this thing is very high-yielding. If the noble families cultivate it together, the yield will be very terrifying.

By that time, they will not keep so many sweet potatoes and potatoes, and they will sell them at a low price one day, so we don’t have to worry. ”

What Li Rong hasn’t said is that if that were the case, then her plan to quickly gain fame would have failed. However, she is not in a hurry and everything can be done slowly!
Li Chuan didn't know about his sister's worries, but he was really comforted by her, and he became happy on the way back.

……

As soon as the two returned to the palace, Emperor Li Ming found out and sent his personal eunuch to tell them to go back to the palace.

Of course, the two of them didn't dare to delay and hurried over.

Li Rong saw that the eunuchs and palace maids were very quiet along the way, and immediately realized that her father might be very angry. She was not worried at all. After entering the hall, before she knelt down, she immediately shouted excitedly,
"Father, great joy, this is a sign of good fortune from heaven!"

Li Ming, who was sitting on the throne, was about to get angry when he saw Li Chuan and Li Rong coming over, but was suddenly stunned by Li Rong's shout.

He didn't know what Li Rong's great joy was, but he still asked with some anticipation, "Where does the joy come from?"

Li Rong quickly took out a stack of papers from her bosom and handed them to Fu Lai who was standing beside her. Then she said seriously, "This is the grain output of my fiefdom this year. Please take a look, Father."

Li Ming didn't know what Li Rong was doing, but he was the emperor after all, and he was still able to control his emotions. So he took the account from Fulai calmly and began to check it carefully.

At the beginning, the statistics were about the production of rice and wheat this year. The data were very normal, so he felt there was nothing to praise.

But when he looked down, he suddenly found that the yield of two crops reached a terrifying 2,000 kilograms per mu, which was a bit incredible. You know, Rongcheng, where Li Rong was sealed, is mostly mountainous or hilly. There can't be any high-yield crops there. What's more, he had never heard of these two crops.

He pointed at the content written on the white paper and asked seriously, "Rong'er, what are these potatoes and sweet potatoes? How can the yield per mu reach 2000 kilograms?"

Li Rong knew that his father would ask, so she smiled and said, "These two things are the seeds that my master brought from overseas, but he only planted some in Jiulu Mountain for ornamental purposes. I specially went to my own fief to try planting them, but I didn't expect the yield to be so high.

I brought a few carts of sweet potatoes and potatoes. Sweet potatoes are especially delicious when roasted, but they can also be boiled. Potatoes can also be used for cooking. Father, please try them."

Li Ming knew that if these two things were really edible, and the yield per mu could reach 2000 kilograms, then his Daxia would never see people starving to death again.

By that time, the people of Daxia will remember the kindness of their royal family and will not need the help of the aristocratic families at all. Daxia will naturally win the hearts of the people of the world.

So Li Ming asked Fulai to follow Li Rong to get some sweet potatoes and potatoes, and then asked the imperial kitchen to boil them in water and then bring them to the hall.

However, although these things were cooked with water from the palace, Li Ming did not taste them after they were served to him. He was obviously still a little hesitant and did not quite trust his son and daughter.

Because Li Rong had lived for decades longer in her dream, she immediately understood what Li Ming was worried about. Although she felt a little sad, she still said calmly, "Father may not eat it. I will show you how to eat it."

As she said this, she picked up a sweet potato, gently tore off the skin, and began to devour it.

Li Chuan was stunned for a moment, then he reacted immediately. He had not expected that his father would be so wary of them. He immediately took a sweet potato from the plate angrily, without even peeling it, and took a big bite to relieve his depression.

Li Ming looked at the performance of his son and daughter. He understood very well that his suspicions were seen through by them, and he looked a little embarrassed.

But the emperor was very thick-skinned and quickly covered it up by saying, "I don't need you to help me try it. I know how to eat it myself."

Although he said this, his actions were very slow. He waited until the two of them had swallowed their food for a while before he peeled the skin, took a bite, and slowly began to eat.

Li Rong knew what her father was like, so she didn't take it seriously, but Li Chuan was a little sad.

Li Chuan didn't understand. He didn't know since when his father had been particularly partial to his younger brother Li Cheng. Originally, he just thought it was just ordinary partiality of his parents. Although he was very sad, he didn't take it seriously.

But now it’s different, because Li Chuan understands that his father is not only partial to him, but has also begun to suspect him.

What on earth had he done to make his father treat him like this!

Li Chuan was very sad. He felt that it was all because of his position as crown prince, so he had the urge to resign from the position.

Li Ming had no idea what his son was thinking. After eating the sweet potatoes, he found them very delicious and said excitedly,

"Rong'er, this delicious food has such a high yield, your teacher is truly an amazing person!"

"Rong'er, tomorrow morning, go to the court and tell them that we need to spread this food throughout the country as soon as possible so that people all over the country will not go hungry."

Li Rong quickly bowed to Li Ming, and then said respectfully, "I obey your command. I will go and prepare it right away."

After Li Rong finished speaking, she exchanged a few more words with her father, then said goodbye and left. Li Chuan originally wanted to leave, but thinking of his sister, he stayed. He looked hesitant and it was obvious that he had something to say.

When Li Ming saw that Li Chuan had not left, he immediately put away his smile and asked with a frown, "Chuan'er, what are you doing here?"

Li Chuan took out the note written by Wang Yue from his pocket, and then said to Li Ming very respectfully, "Father, this is a letter from the headmaster of Jiulu Mountain Academy. He wants to marry my sister!"

Li Ming is good at calculating. He looked at the letter and immediately filled in the blanks in his mind and felt that this was right!
Wang Yue must have taken a fancy to Li Rong, which was why he brought these precious crops from overseas and even asked Li Rong to try growing them!
