The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

After the trade conference, Zhao Yao was busy going to the fields to check, because in a while, the early rice would be harvested. He had to take a good look at the condition of the early rice before harvesting.

The overall situation of this year's early rice is pretty good. This is because the people of Marsh Mansion, on Zhao Yao's suggestion, stocked fish in the rice fields, so this year's early rice grew very well. Of course, the fish also grew very fat.

When Zhao Yao put forward this suggestion, the people of Marsh Mansion couldn't understand it and thought it was too nonsense. How can this fish be kept in a rice field? The fish will eat the rice seedlings.

Zhao Yao saw that the people did not believe his words, so he stocked fish in his own rice fields. The people of Marsh Mansion felt that His Highness the King of Han was out of his mind and were waiting to see His Highness the Han King's jokes. As a result, the people waited and waited, but it took a long time until the seedlings in the rice fields of His Highness the King of Han were eaten by fish.

Not only were the seedlings in the rice fields of His Highness the King of Han not eaten by fish, but they grew better and better. Not only that, the fish in the rice fields are also growing bigger and bigger. The people didn't understand this very much.

Why don't fish eat seedlings?

Why can fish survive in rice fields?

Zhao Yao told the people that the fish would not eat the seedlings, nor would they bite the roots of the seedlings, so the seedlings would be fine. As for why the seedlings grow better and better, it is because of fish dung. As for why the fish can grow fatter and fatter, it is because the fish eat the pests and weeds in the rice fields.

In fact, raising fish in rice fields can also improve the ecological environment of rice fields. Fish activities in rice fields can improve the water quality of the rice fields and increase oxygen content, which is beneficial to the growth of rice. Fish manure provides organic fertilizer to rice fields, which can improve the quality of rice.

Fish farming can also increase income for the people. When the fish grows up and becomes fatter, it can be sold.

Raising fish in rice fields is a good thing that kills four birds with one stone.

The people in Marsh Mansion don't understand oxygen content, nor do they understand improving the ecological environment, but they understand that raising fish can make rice fields fertile and make rice grow well. The most important thing is that fish farming can be sold for money. Although it is not worth a few dollars, a dollar is still money.

After witnessing the benefits of raising fish in rice fields with their own eyes, the people no longer questioned the words of His Highness the King of Han and hurriedly raised fish in their own rice fields.

During the trade conference, the fish in the common people's rice fields grew very fat. The people sold the fish to restaurants and made a lot of money.

The fish grown in the rice fields has very tender meat, and the restaurant guests like to eat it very much. For this reason, the restaurant owners bought large quantities of fish from the rice fields from the people, which made the people very happy.

In addition to raising fish, Zhao Yao also suggested that people raise ducks in rice fields. The benefits of raising ducks are the same as raising fish. After hearing this, the people raised ducks in the rice fields without any hesitation.

The people of Marsh Mansion, or to be precise, the people of Lingnan don't like eating duck very much. Because duck meat is very fishy. People in Lingnan prefer chicken to duck.

After Zhao Yao learned that the people of Marsh Mansion disliked ducks, he specially posted a notice containing one hundred ways to make ducks.

The common people and the restaurant chefs followed the recipes provided by His Highness the King of Han and found that the duck meat became very delicious and not fishy at all, especially the roast duck.

Roast duck is very popular, especially at trade conferences. Foreign guests like to eat roast duck very much.

In fact, Zhao Yao invented roast duck many years ago. At that time, roast duck became a famous dish in Beijing. After that, roast duck spread to other state capitals and became very popular. However, it did not spread to Lingnan.

People from Annan, Johor and other countries liked to eat roast duck very much when they went to the capital to worship. It's a pity that their domestic chefs can't make good roast duck, so they can only come to Dazhou to eat. I thought that to eat roast duck, I could only go to the capital of Zhou Dynasty, but I didn’t expect that I could eat it in Marsh Mansion.

During the trade conference, the foreign guests ate up all the ducks in Marsh Mansion, so Zhao Yao had to send people to the interior to buy ducks.

By raising fish and ducks, the people of Marsh Mansion made a lot of money, which made them more and more convinced of Zhao Yao, His Highness the King of Han.

After the trade conference, the people of Marsh Mansion believed in the words of His Highness the King of Han. In addition to treating His Highness the King of Han as a "living Bodhisattva" who rescued those in distress, they also regarded Zhao Yao as the "God of Wealth."

Having said that, the early rice will be harvested next month. Zhao Yao is very concerned about the situation of the early rice, so he went to the fields to check.

During the sowing period this year, all the fields in Marsh Mansion were plowed with new curved shaft plows, and fertilizers were applied to the fields. Later, water trucks were used to irrigate the fields. Later, fish and ducks were raised in the rice fields, which allowed this year's early rice to grow better than before.

When Zhao Yao went to inspect the fields, the people thanked him one after another. If it weren't for him, this year's early rice wouldn't have grown so well.

The fields in Lingnan are not as fertile as those in Jiangnan. However, the climate environment in Lingnan is better than that in Jiangnan, and double or triple cropping of rice can be grown, so the output in Lingnan is greater than that in Jiangnan.

Lingnan’s climate environment is an advantage, but it is also a disadvantage. Because of the hot climate, there are particularly many rats and insects in Lingnan, and there are also many pests in rice fields.

Before Zhao Yao proposed the introduction of double-cropping rice or triple-cropping rice, the output in Lingnan was very small. On the one hand, this is because the fields are not fertile, and on the other hand, there are too many pests.

The people in Lingnan have no way to deal with the pests. No matter how they use medicine, they can't kill them all. However, the people of Marsh Prefecture found that there were far fewer rice pests this year. Zhao Yao told them that this was all the result of raising fish and ducks, and it was the fish and ducks that ate the pests.

Zhao Yao has long expected that this year's early rice will grow well, but how big the early rice harvest will be will be known only after the harvest. However, this year’s harvest will never be worse than in previous years.

Zhao Yao is more concerned about the early rice in terraced fields than the early rice in ordinary fields. Early rice in terraced fields also grows very well, not inferior to ordinary fields at all.

Seeing that the early rice in the terraced fields was growing well, the people decided to cultivate more terraced fields after the early rice was harvested.

After Zhao Yao inspected the fields, he felt relieved when he saw that whether it was ordinary fields or terraced fields, the early rice grew very well and there were no serious insect pests. Next, it’s time to harvest.

Before the trade conference, Zhao Yao and Zheng Cheng finally built the windmill. When the early rice is harvested next month, the windmill can be used directly.

After Zhao Yao inspected the fields, he sent someone to teach the people of Marsh Mansion how to use the windmill.

After the people learned how to use the windmill, they all marveled at the cleverness of His Highness the King of Han. They also lamented that with the windmill, this year's harvest would be much easier. Although Zhao Yao did not patrol the fields in the past two days, he was not at the Han Palace either. His laboratory in Beishan. He deliberately hid in Beishan's laboratory because many people were looking for him in the past few days.

After the trade conference, many people from the capital came to see him. He was too lazy to deal with these people, so he simply hid in Beishan Laboratory.

These people could not see Zhao Yao and did not leave. Instead, they continued to wait for him in Marsh Mansion. Shi had the attitude that he would not leave the Marsh Mansion until he could wait for him.

It is impossible for Zhao Yao to hide in Beishan Laboratory forever. He had to go to court in the morning and could only hide in the Beishan laboratory for a few days.

During this period, too many things happened in Marsh Mansion. Next, there are many things to be busy with. I have to go to court in the morning. Besides, the ministers also had many things to report to him, the King of Han.

There will be a morning court tomorrow and Zhao Yao has to go back to Marsh Mansion. As soon as he returned to Prince Han's Mansion, He Lianfang called him over.

He Lianfang told Zhao Yao who had come to see him in the past few days, and also told him what these people were doing in the Marsh Mansion.

After hearing this, Zhao Yao said with a headache: "It seems that they don't plan to leave since they can't see me."

"They can't go back to do business without seeing you." He Lianfang reminded Zhao Yao, "This time, they will never let you go easily. You can't escape."

Zhao Yao put his hand on his forehead and sighed with helplessness on his face: "Oh, it's really annoying."

"This time, they won't be dismissed easily by you." He Lianfang looked at Zhao Yao's distressed look. Not only did he not feel any distress, but he was gloating about his misfortune. "If you don't handle them well this time, you will offend them all."

Hearing what He Lianfang said, Zhao Yao let out a disdainful sneer: "Haha, am I afraid of offending them?"

He Lianfang glanced at Zhao Yao and said, "In recent days, there have been many people in the court participating in your performance. They say that you bribe foreigners and have the intention to rebel. What are you going to do?"

Zhao Yao shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Cold salad."

He Lianfang asked: "What are you not going to do?"

Zhao Yao raised his eyes to look at He Lianfang and asked with a smile: "Second uncle, what do you want me to do?"

He Lianfang didn't think much about Zhao Yao's question. He didn't answer directly, but said: "It's not your style to sit back and wait for death."

When Zhao Yao saw that He Lianfang did not answer his question, a deep look flashed in his eyes. However, he still had a casual smile on his face.

"It's really not my style to sit still and wait for death, but in this case, I really don't plan to do anything and just ignore them. Whatever they say, I'm not in the capital anyway."

"Have you forgotten that you are going back to the capital next year to get married?"

"Second uncle, you also said it would be next year." Next year, he may not necessarily return to the capital to get married. Next year's marriage will not be a good thing for him.

"Aren't you afraid that you will become a treacherous minister and traitor in the eyes of the world?"

"I'm not afraid." Zhao Yao said frankly, "I will rebel only when my brain is crazy. Besides, my father will not believe their slander." Maybe his stinky father wants him to rebel.

"Just because Zhao Zheng loves you, he won't think you are rebellious?" He Lianfang raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Zhao Yao, when did you become so naive?"

"If my father really thinks that I have rebellious intentions, then I will go overseas."

He Lianfang, who was drinking tea, paused when she heard Zhao Yao say this. He raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Yao sharply: "Are you going overseas?"

"When I have time in the future, I will definitely go overseas for a visit." The reason why he set his fiefdom in Lingnan was, on the one hand, because Lingnan was far away from the capital, and on the other hand, because Lingnan was close to foreign countries such as Annan and Piao. "If my father listens to those people and thinks that I have rebellious intentions, then I will flee overseas. With my ability, I can live happily overseas."

He Lianfang took a deep look at Zhao Yao and saw that he didn't seem to be joking, but that he really planned to go overseas, which made his heart tremble.

"Then you are really promising."

Zhao Yao looked at He Lianfang and said meaningfully: "Second uncle, I am a person with no future."

"You fled overseas and didn't care about Liang Bin?" He Lianfang knew that in this world, Zhao Yao cared about Liang Bin the most as his mother.

"My father's favorite person is my mother and concubine, and he will not harm her." Zhao Yao added, "When the time comes, I will also ask Fourth Brother and Eighth Brother to help me take care of my mother and concubine. When the time is right, I will send I went to the capital to pick up my mother and concubine."

Hearing this, He Lianfang finally noticed something strange. He suddenly discovered that Zhao Yao, a brat, had long planned to go overseas and had made plans.

"Second uncle, if you are willing to go overseas with me then, then I will take you with me."

He Lianfang said coldly: "As the prince of Zhou Dynasty, don't dream of going overseas." It seems that we must prevent this kid from going overseas.

Zhao Yao stopped talking about going overseas and brought the topic back to those people.

"Tomorrow, I will meet them at court and see what they want to say." He could probably guess what they wanted to say.
