Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 67 In the Royal Garden, the Specifications of Sweet Potato Seedlings

In order to reward everyone, Li Gen stewed a whole sheep at noon.

After lunch, everyone did not rest.

Without Li Gen's orders, he continued walking to the field.

Zhao Si and Feng Wu led the rest of the restaurant and returned to the manor.

He also immediately joined the farming team.

no way!
The emperor is working hard in the field!

How dare they not go to work in the fields!

Li Gen was tired from reading, so he went out to exercise his muscles and bones.

Four dogs followed behind Li Gen stinky, shaking their heads.

Watching everyone working in the field.

Sure enough, his master is the real big brother.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhao Si and Feng Wu led Hong Xiu, Tian Xiang, and a group of people from the restaurant to Chang'an City.

There are several sweet potato seedlings in Zhao Si's sleeve.

This was ordered by the Supreme Emperor and must be handed over to His Majesty.

After arriving at the restaurant.

Zhao Si got on his horse and went straight to the palace.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Si begs to see you!"

In the imperial study room, Li Shimin, who had just gone to court, heard Li Junxian's voice before finishing his cup of hot tea.

"Let Zhao Si come in!"

Li Shimin was a little flustered.

But don't let the emperor slip up.

Leading to the complete failure of one's own plan.

"Subordinate Zhao Si, see Your Majesty!"

"Free gift!"

"Zhao Si, you, Feng Wu, and the two court ladies have performed very well recently. I see it in my eyes and keep it in my heart. I will definitely reward the four of you heavily."

Li Shimin came up and drew a big cake first.

"This subordinate swears to be filial and loyal to His Majesty!"

Li Shimin nodded happily and said.

"It's so early, come here in a hurry, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, please sit down first."

Seeing Zhao Si's serious expression, Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat.

An unknown premonition suddenly rose in Li Shimin's heart.

"Say, what happened?"

Li Shimin sat down.

"Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor has ordered his subordinates to make sure that His Majesty sit down, and then let His Majesty report to His Majesty!"

"Zhen, I've already sat down, Zhao Si, it's okay to say something if you have something to do!"

"Your Majesty, look at this."

Zhao Si carefully took out a few sweet potato seedlings from his sleeve.

Li Shimin's heart finally settled down.

As long as nothing happens at all.

"What is this?"

Li Shimin, who was down-to-earth, had a faint smile on his face.

Li Shimin had guessed that this species must have come from Li Gen.

"Returning to His Majesty, what the eldest son of the emperor said, this object is called sweet potato seedling, and the fruit it produces is called sweet potato."

"Oh!"

Li Shimin took the sweet potato seedlings and looked them over carefully.

The green is very bright, and there are no more, no less three leaves on each plant.

"Zhao Si, how to plant this thing? What is the yield?"

"Returning to His Majesty, this thing can be inserted into the plowed land."

"The eldest son of the emperor said that the yield per mu is more than [-] shi!"

Puff!
Li Shimin collapsed directly to the ground.

Even if he has a big heart, he can't bear such an output.

At this time, even the best fertile land in the Tang Dynasty encountered favorable weather conditions.

The yield per mu is only about two stones.

The yield of thirty shi per mu was beyond Li Shimin's imagination.

Li Junxian quickly helped Li Shimin up.

Li Shimin didn't have time to straighten the dragon robe, so he stared at Zhao Si with wide eyes.

"Is this true?"

"Returning to His Majesty, what the eldest son of the emperor said is just too much."

"Okay, okay, that's great!"

Li Shimin became a little incoherent with excitement.

Drought and locust plagues are approaching.

But there is such auspiciousness in Gener's hands.

God bless Datang!
"Call the Prime Minister Du Xiang and the eldest grandson Wuji!"

Li Shimin gave an order, and Li Delu, the head of the internal servants, hurriedly withdrew as soon as he agreed.

Fang Xiang Du Xiang and Changsun Wuji, the three of them came hand in hand!

When I heard that this product yielded thirty stones per mu.

Even if there were three of them, Taishan collapsed in front of him calmly without fear.

They also fell to the ground.

If these words did not come from His Majesty's mouth.

Fang Xiang Du Xiang and Changsun Wuji promised to go up and beat them up hard, so that those who uttered wild words would be given a meal.

"Xuanling, Keming, auxiliary machine. Why are you so excited, calm down, calm down!"

The corners of Li Junxian and Zhao Si's mouths twitched.

Just now, the two of them saw the scene where His Majesty was not calm.

"Your Majesty, a gift from heaven, how can I calm down."

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji stood up, still trembling with excitement.

"Zhao Si, why are these sweet potato seedlings planted in Gu Yu?"

Li Shimin's question was really quite difficult. Fortunately, Zhao Si remembered what Li Gen said yesterday.

"Gu Yu planted sweet potato seedlings to ensure a big harvest."

"Your Majesty, this is what the eldest son of the emperor said personally. The Supreme Emperor asked the eldest son at that time, could it be that a large basket of sweet potato seedlings can be harvested?"

"The eldest son of the emperor himself nodded and admitted!"

call!
call!
call!
There was a sound of gasping in the imperial study room.

"Your Majesty, it's not too late, let's plant it first. If the best time for planting has passed, I'm afraid the sweet potato seedlings will not survive well!"

After listening to Prime Minister Fang Xuanling's words, Li Shimin suddenly realized.

"What Xuanling said is true, I almost made a big mistake!"

"My dear friends, follow me to the imperial garden!"

Li Shimin held five sweet potato seedlings and strode towards the imperial garden.

The reason why it is determined to be five is because Li Shimin has already counted them just now.

"Delu, please come to the imperial garden to have a look at the queen!"

Li Delu, the chief servant, trotted all the way to deliver a message to the Lizheng Hall.

Imperial Garden!
Li Shimin loves peonies because of his eldest grandson queen.

The imperial garden is full of peonies.

But today.

Li Shimin wants to bear the pain and give up his love.

Several servants worked together to transplant several peonies to other places.

When Empress Changsun learned that the yield of sweet potatoes was more than [-] shi per mu, her eyes widened in surprise and she covered her mouth.

Even pull out all the peonies in the entire imperial garden.

Empress Changsun also has absolutely no opinion.

Everything is ready.

Zhao Si began to plant sweet potato seedlings.

After all, of all the people here, only he knows how to plant.

Five sweet potato seedlings were lined up and planted by Zhao Si in the imperial garden.

"Zhao Si, what else do we need to do?"

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Zhao Si spoke.

"Your Majesty, what the eldest son of the emperor said: Sprinkle ashes in front of the sweet potato seedlings and harvest a lot."

"Oh, plant ash?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Zhao Si said solemnly.

"Your Majesty is wise, it is plant ash."

"Stinky boy, there is a set of jingles, which are quite interesting."

Li Shimin scolded with a smile, but he was very happy in his heart.

The five sweet potato seedlings were all sprinkled with plant ash.

After Li Shimin was sure what Zhao Si knew, he asked Zhao Si to return to Fugen Restaurant.

Du Junzhuo, the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards, was summoned to the imperial garden.

"Jun Zhuo, these five sweet potato seedlings must be protected well. Tell the soldiers to protect them just like protecting me and the queen."

"If there is a slight mistake, I, you are the only one to ask!"
