Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 571 Extravagant Hope (1)
Emperor Xian De asked everyone to retreat, personally poured a glass of wine for each of them, raised the glass, and said to Su Wan: "Wan'er, I want to toast you, if it wasn't for you, the promotion of maize would not have happened." It went so smoothly, I will do it first as a respect.”

After speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

Su Wan also raised her wine glass, took a sip, and then said: "Ah Hong, you are too generous, I just told you what I know, and I didn't make any effort, why should I thank me so solemnly?" ? Aren't you embarrassing me?"

Emperor Xiande said again: "I have also received a message that although the sweet potato you mentioned has not yet been found, Wan'er, I have found the potato you mentioned, and I have a clue about the sweet potato you mentioned, and it probably won't be used How long will it take for them to come back, and with these two crops, even if there is a severe drought, they will be able to survive."

Potatoes are resistant to cold, drought, and barrenness, and have wide adaptability. They are easier to plant and have a large yield. Emperor Xiande's expectation for it is even higher than that of sweet potatoes. No wonder Emperor Xiande is so happy.

Su Wan was also very happy when she heard the words, she couldn't help laughing and said: "This is really a great event worth celebrating, so I will congratulate Your Majesty first here, and I will offer you a toast."

After speaking, he also drank the wine in the glass.

Up until now, Su Wan's drinking capacity has not been much higher than before. After drinking a glass of wine, her cheeks immediately turned red, and the chill was dispelled a bit, as if a wave of heat diffused from her belly and spread to her limbs. The whole person feels a lot warmer.

There was warmth in her body, but Su Wan suddenly felt that her eyes were sore.

In the past year, she has seen how hard Liang Hong has worked and how hard he has worked, and it hurts in his heart.

In front of people, he never showed the slightest sign of fatigue, let alone worry or impatience. He handled government affairs in an orderly manner every day. In the eyes of outsiders, he would always be an unfathomable emperor with wisdom in his hands.

But Su Wan knew that he must be very anxious and even under tremendous pressure.

He would only show his tired and even vulnerable side in front of her.

At this time, Su Wan didn't need to do anything, as long as she stayed with him quietly.

On the second day, he was the Ninety-Five Supreme with no weakness at all.

But in the recent period, Su Wan obviously felt that Liang Hong had relaxed a lot, and the smiles on his face had increased, because everything was going in the best direction.

That night, both of them drank a lot of wine.Emperor Xian De always had self-control, he never drank too much, but this time, he kept drinking one after another.Su Wan didn't stop him, he also needed to vent his emotions.

The emperor is also a human being, not a god.

It wasn't until she got a little drunk that Su Wan stopped him and asked someone to prepare hangover soup for him. After washing up, she served him to go to bed and rest.

Because Emperor Xiande's Longevity Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are only two days apart, they have always been celebrated together, and the ministers will also rest for three days to celebrate the emperor's birthday and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The king of Jin hurried, and finally arrived at the capital before the Longevity Festival.

After Jin Wang Liangxuan entered Beijing, he immediately went to the palace to report on his duties and pay homage to the emperor.Emperor Xiande received King Jin in Qinzheng Palace.

"Your brother pays homage to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" After King Jin saw Emperor Xiande, he immediately paid homage respectfully, no one who saw him could find the slightest fault.

Emperor Xian De also showed a gentle smile, raised his hand to support him and said: "Eleventh brother will soon be exempt from courtesy, we are all one family, why is there so much courtesy?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" King Jin stood up and said solemnly after finishing the ceremony, "Your Majesty, the ceremony must not be discarded!"

When Emperor Xiande heard the words, he shook his head helplessly and said: "Forget it, you have the same virtue as elder brother, so I will not talk about it."

Jin Wang Gong stood with his head bowed in silence.

Emperor Xian De restrained his smile and asked: "How is Concubine Shun?"

There was a hint of worry on King Jin's face, and he cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the concubine mother is still in good health, but she has been missing her daughter for a long time, and her health is getting worse... Now... oh..."

Although the words were respectful, there was a hint of blame mixed in——

If the emperor hadn't abolished Princess Qinyang, how could Concubine Shun's body have collapsed?

Concubine Shun's biological daughter is the eldest princess Qinyang, and her mother naturally feels uncomfortable when the eldest princess Qinyang is deposed.

Emperor Xiande heard the words, but said: "Concubine Shun is getting old, as her adopted son, you should spend more time with her. I think Concubine Tai is too lonely on weekdays, so she thinks about other things. Fortunately, I didn't let Princess Qinyang go with you, otherwise, Concubine Shun will be so angry that she will go to see the late emperor immediately when she sees Qinyang's disappointment and embarrassment to the royal family!"

King Jin was speechless when he heard the words.

He originally thought that the emperor should at least feel ashamed when he heard what he said, and let him take Qinyang away?did not expect……

Sure enough, no matter how many years have passed, Liang Hong is still as shameless as before.

Fortunately, King Jin didn't really care about Concubine Shun and Concubine Qinyang, and Emperor Xiande disagreed, so he wouldn't feel disappointed, adjusted his emotions, bowed and said: "Your Majesty is right, my brother will definitely treat Concubine Tai more in the future." Filial piety."

The two talked for a while, and the King of Jin suddenly said: "My brother heard that the emperor is buying grain from the country of Fanbang. Although I don't know what the emperor's intention is, I also want to do my part. , if the emperor doesn't dislike it, there is still some food in the minister's place..."

"My brother's heart, I appreciate it, but you don't have to." Emperor Xiande couldn't help interrupting him by raising his hand when he heard the words, and said with a smile, "The reason why I buy grain is because I met A strange person, he predicts that there will be a natural disaster in the next few years, he would rather believe it than believe it, so I will prepare early, maybe it will be a false alarm in the end!"

Emperor Xiande's words coincided with Xia Xia's words.

But King Jin has always been suspicious. After hearing Xia Xia's words, he was very sure at first. However, after hearing Emperor Xiande's words, he hesitated in his heart, and began to wonder if this was a conspiracy aimed specifically at him, just to lure him out. .
