My son A Fei has the appearance of a sword master

Chapter 155: The sea of ​​​​love changes and she avoids overseas
Forbidden City, Kunning Palace.

The prince Zhu Youtang, who was already six years old, practiced the body-building and foundation-building skills meticulously under the personal instruction of Zhu Jianshen.

Wan Zhen'er sat aside and watched the interaction between father and son, with a gentle and peaceful smile on her face. Hua En had a whisk on his arm, looking at this warm scene with a kind face.

After Zhu Jian deeply practiced internal skills and was able to decide on his own whether to have children, no other concubine in his palace became pregnant again.

He can be exposed to both rain and dew, but one heir is enough, and his descendants will basically do the same in the future.

The country has only one prince and no other princes, which can directly eliminate the situation where the competition for the throne will lead to courtiers forming cliques for personal gain and brotherly feuding.

As for the problem of babies dying early in ancient times, it no longer exists in Lao Zhu's family.

Because every generation of princes and princesses will practice Hunyuan Qi and have strong bodies.

During pregnancy, there will be corresponding elixirs to strengthen the fetus. After the children are born, they are basically talented and talented cultivation wizards.

This will naturally ensure that the prince will not die easily.

Then again, every generation of princes and emperors are extremely powerful martial arts masters, with long lifespans and strong bodies.

Even if something unexpected happens, he can be regenerated at any time, so that the scarcity of heirs will not lead to the end of the world.

Zhu Youtang's crown princess had been decided as early as when Zhu Youtang turned three, and she was Li Ling'er, the eldest daughter of Li Tianxin and Bai Feifei.

While Zhu Jianshen was teaching his son with all his heart, a chamberlain quickly entered the Kunning Palace and reported to Zhu Jianshen: "Long live the Lord, Xiong Daxia is asking for an audience."

If they were in the outer dynasty, Li Tianxin and his group could come and go freely at any time, but after passing through the Qianqing Gate, they were where the harem was, and they were not allowed to enter at will.

Even ordinary people's homes and harems cannot be entered casually, let alone the emperor's harem.

Zhu Jianshen's eyes lit up and he smiled at Huaien and Wan Zhen'er: "They are back. I wonder what surprises they will bring us this time."

Wan Zhen'er asked the chamberlain, "Is the only one coming?"

The chamberlain said: "Back to the Queen, there is only Xiong Daxia, but he brought a few sergeants and carried a few sacks."

Bailing missed the children, so he returned to Fenyang first instead of going to Beijing with Panda'er.

Zhu Jianshen was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "It must be the high-yielding crop they found. Please quickly invite Hero Xiong to come in."

"Yes."

The chamberlain took three steps back, then turned around and walked quickly to Qianqing Gate.

The distance from Qianqing Gate to Kunning Palace was less than 200 meters. Panda quickly led several soldiers and carried sacks to the outside of Kunning Palace.

Before anyone arrived, Panda's hearty voice first came to Kunning Palace: "Brother Long, Madam Sister-in-law, brother has brought you something good."

Hearing this, Zhu Jianshen walked toward the door and laughed loudly: "I knew you guys wouldn't let me down."

When Panda'er stepped into the palace gate, he saw Zhu Jianshen and Zhu Youtang in bright yellow embroidered dragon-embroidered Yishan crown uniforms, and Wan Zhen'er also wearing a phoenix-embroidered Yanju crown uniform. The common people pay their respects to our Emperor, long live the Emperor, Thousand Lives the Queen, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

The sergeants also quickly put down their sacks, knelt down on one knee and clasped their fists, saying: "Long live the emperor, a thousand lives the queen, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Retire without courtesy."

"Thank you, long live."

Zhu Jianshen first asked the sergeants to stand up, and then he slapped Panda'er on the arm in a funny way and said, "Okay, keep doing this with us."

Panda'er grinned and said: "You are wearing this kind of clothes, so you must wear this outfit. Our Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette. The heaven is a country, and etiquette cannot be abolished."

Wynn nodded repeatedly when he heard this. This was what he liked most about this group of people. They clearly separated public and private matters.

When you are in casual clothes, you are our good friend, the Dragon Warrior Long Aotian, who can laugh and play as much as you want.

But when you wear a dragon robe, you are the current Long Live Lord. We must follow the etiquette of meeting the emperor. As he said, etiquette cannot be discarded.

Zhu Jianshen himself has always been very satisfied with this, which allows him to get along with them without any pressure.

"Where are Tianxin and Brother Shen? Why didn't they come?"

Panda'er said: "They are still in the place where high-yielding crops were discovered and have not returned yet. We are going to sea this time..."

He told Zhu Jianshen what he had said to Wang Zhi and Wang Lianhua before.

After listening to his words, Zhu Jianshen was deeply moved. He nodded gently and said warmly: "You are determined. If I, the Ming Dynasty, can really unify the world in the future, Tianxin should take the lead."

After speaking, he looked at the sacks and asked with interest: "Are these the high-yielding crops you found?"

"Exactly." Panda'er grinned, opened a sack and took out a washed sweet potato.

He also pointed it as a knife and used his true energy to peel off the outer skin, then cut it into four parts and presented them to Zhu Jianshen, Wan Zhen'er, Zhu Youtang and Huaien respectively.

"This thing is called sweet potato. It is crispy and sweet when eaten raw. It is soft and delicious after being steamed. It is very good at fighting hunger. You can try it."

The four of them each caught a piece, put it directly into their mouths and chewed it. The trust shown by this move could be said to be unreserved.

Usually, their meals must first be tasted by the waiters.

"Hmm, it tastes good. What's the yield per acre of this product?"

Although the taste of sweet potatoes is not comparable to the delicacies he enjoys, it is grown among the people and eaten by all the people. The taste is already quite good.

Panda'er chuckled and said, "You have to stand firm. If this thing is grown in poor soil, the yield per mu can be about two thousand catties. If it is grown in fertile soil, the yield must be at least four thousand catties."

"If we use the chemical fertilizer developed in the factory, the yield per mu can reach [-] to [-] kilograms."

After hearing Panda'er's words, Zhu Jianshen and others' eyes widened immediately, looking at him in disbelief and confirming: "How much did you say?"

Because he was too excited, the tone of his question rose, almost breaking.

Panda'er said categorically: "The minimum guarantee is two thousand catties, and the maximum is five or six thousand catties."

Wynn looked at the sweet potato in his hand with burning eyes and said repeatedly: "Baby, it's such a good baby. With this thing, there will be no more famine in my Ming Dynasty."

Panda'er looked calm and continued: "But don't eat too much of this thing, as eating too much will have side effects."

The faces of several people changed slightly. Zhu Jianshen looked stern and asked in a deep voice: "What are the side effects?"

"Ku..." Panda'er snorted a suppressed laugh, pursed his lips and said: "Tianxin has something to say. This product is rich in dietary fiber, which can promote gastrointestinal motility. It will be disadvantageous after improvement (constipation), so it is easy to fart if you eat too much. , and the farts are very smelly.”

"..."

Several people were dumbfounded. Just say, if the food is harmful to the body, no matter how high-yield it is, how could Li Tianxin take it back and feed it to the people of the Ming Dynasty?
Panda laughed and said: "The side effects are a joke, but eating this food is really a bit particular." "It needs to be eaten with some pickles or vegetable soup. If you only eat this, it will be fine if you eat less. If you eat too much, you will easily become indigestible. , symptoms such as acid reflux and heartburn occur.”

Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "Well, we should explain it to the people when promoting it."

He looked at the other sacks and asked, "Besides these sweet potatoes, are there any other grains?"

"Of course there is." Panda'er showed the things he brought one by one, "This is a potato, commonly known as potato. It is suitable for vegetable and food, but it cannot be eaten raw. The yield per mu is between one thousand catties and five thousand catties."

"This is maize, commonly known as corn, corn, or corn. The yield per mu is one to two thousand catties."

"This is peanut. The yield per mu is between [-] and [-] kilograms. This material is not a grain. It can be used to extract oil, cook, and is especially suitable for drinking."

"This is called sunflower. It mainly eats the sunflower seeds inside. The yield per mu is only [-] kilograms. It is not a grain, but a snack like melon seeds. It has been fried. You can try it."

Panda'er said, grabbing a handful of sunflower seeds, twisting one up and putting it into his mouth, showing his teeth so that Zhu Jianshen and the others could see how they were eating.

He skillfully cracked the shells and ate the sunflower seeds, holding the shells in his hands.

After Wan Zhener knocked on a few pills, she immediately fell in love with it.

Panda'er introduced the things he brought to Zhu Jianshen one by one, and finally said with a smile: "It's meaningless just to talk. Why don't you ask Supervisor Shang Shan to bring the stove and I'll cook a meal for you to try."

"Well then, sir, I'll let Supervisor Shang Shan prepare it."

"Yes."

Huai'en went to give the order, while Zhu Jianshen sent the soldiers down to receive the reward, and then invited Panda'er to sit down at a stone table and let him tell the details of the voyage.

When he heard that they had defeated the Folangji fleet and even conquered all the remaining Folangji people, Zhu Jianshen couldn't help but clap the table and applaud.

The Western countries have such weak military power, so it is fitting that the Ming Dynasty could dominate the world.

……

Supervisor Shang Shan quickly moved the stove and prepared beef, pork and other side dishes, as well as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other seasonings.

Panda'er took action on the spot and made a lunch for Zhu Jianshen using the crops he had just returned from overseas.

The rice is cornmeal and rice. When the rice is steamed, a circle of potatoes and sweet potatoes are placed on top.

The dishes include stewed beef with potatoes, stir-fried pork and potato slices, shredded potatoes in vinegar, potato soup, mashed potatoes, potato pancakes, corn stewed chicken, vermicelli made with potatoes and sweet potato flour, and a plate of fried peanuts sprinkled with salt.

It's a pity that there are no tomatoes. This thing is not like potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn. As long as it is stored properly, it will not go bad for three to five months.

Especially corn, it can be stored for a year and a half after being dried.

Tomatoes cannot be stored for a long time. No matter how they are stored, they will go bad in a few days after being picked from the plant, so they only brought back the seeds, not the fresh fruits.

Panda'er is good at cooking. These home-cooked dishes he learned from Li Tianxin are very delicious.

But Zhu Jianshen and the others only wanted to eat fresh food, so if they really wanted to compare with the imperial cuisine, which had all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, there was no comparison.

But when he thought that in the future, people in the Ming Dynasty would have these good things on their dining tables, and they would be enough, Zhu Jianshen felt satisfied.

When it comes to helping people live a good life, which emperor in history can compare with him?
No, none at all.

If you can make the people eat well without going hungry, you can be called a wise king.

But his Zhu Jianshen not only fed the people, but also made them eat well. This is where he surpassed all other emperors.

He was determined to be the emperor of the ages.

After dinner, Panda'er mentioned to Zhu Jianshen the matter of mobilizing science talents to support them in the New World.

Zhu Jianshen had no objection, and immediately gave Panda'er an imperial edict, and at the same time sent an edict to the Ministry of Officials, instructing them to handle the matter.

At this time, new scholars are waiting to be selected by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Talents in the liberal arts are temporarily useless to the development of the New World. The aboriginal people do not even understand the Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty. The population is only a few thousand, and there is no rule.

At present, the most important thing is infrastructure construction, which requires technical talents in all aspects.

Those grain seeds had been sent to the Ministry of Revenue before Panda entered the palace, but Panda gave the planting manual written by Li Tianxin to Zhu Jianshen so that he could print it in large quantities and distribute it together with the grain seeds.

……

After Panda'er settled the matter of grain planting, he returned to Fenyang and waited for the new Jinshi to report.

In May, after being notified by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the science scholars who volunteered to go to sea with Panda'er arrived in Fenyang one after another. They first reported to the factory to register, and temporarily stayed in the factory, waiting for the day of departure.

What Panda'er never expected was that Li Xunhuan, a new double-digit talent, also came and wanted to go to the New World with him to support Li Tianxin.

Diagonally across from Zhu's Mansion, there is the upper hall of Panda'er's Mansion.

Panda'er looked at Li Xunhuan with a strange expression. He found that there seemed to be something wrong with this little brother he hadn't seen in nearly three years, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Xiao Li, are you sure you want to go to the New World with me? Do Uncle Li and Da Li know about this?"

Li Xunhuan nodded and said, "I have discussed it with my father and brother, and they agreed for me to go out."

Panda'er frowned and said, "No, you have a bright future with two majors. If you become an official, it is almost certain that you will join the cabinet and become the prime minister in the future."

"What are you going to do in the New World if you don't accumulate political achievements and qualifications in the government at this time? Even if you come back from the New World in the future, being a factory stall will make you feel unworthy, and it is incomparable with being a cabinet minister."

The Ming Dynasty was developing at a rapid pace, and the requirements for officials were naturally getting higher and higher.

Although political talents do not need to be proficient in science knowledge, they must understand some knowledge, otherwise they will be blinded when facing new technologies.

Geniuses like Li Xunhuan, who were talented in arts, science, and martial arts, were exactly the cabinet ministers that the Ming Dynasty needed most.

Coupled with his personal relationship with the emperor, if he chooses to be an official now, as long as he makes some achievements, his promotion will be as fast as taking a train, and he may be able to join the cabinet in his thirties.

However, after listening to Panda'er's words, Li Xunhuan just smiled lightly and said: "It doesn't matter whether I am an official or not. The main thing is that I want to go out and see the world and broaden my horizons."

"Besides, going to the New World to help the natives develop can also accumulate valuable experience."

Bai Ling, who was next to Panda'er, said suspiciously: "You are already thirty-three this year, right? It's time to start a family and start a business."

"If you run away to the New World, what will happen to your cousin? Will you take her with you?"

As soon as Bai Ling said these tentative words, a hint of pain suddenly appeared in Li Xunhuan's eyes, and his expression became a bit unnatural.

Panda'er and Bai Ling looked at each other, and they had a basic idea. It was probably because the relationship between the little brother and his cousin had changed, and there was a problem between him and his cousin.
