Chapter 667
After listening to her words, he pondered for a while and said, "You mean this plant is called corn, and its growth cycle is about [-] days, and it is very resistant to drought and disaster."

"That's right." It's good for a child living in the city to know this, and Bai Lai has already finished what he knows.

After getting an affirmative answer, Si Yaojin pondered for a while and was about to say something, when the people below came to report that someone was looking outside.

Si Yaojin, who has been relatively busy recently, hastily apologized to Bai Lai, and then walked out of the room.Bai Lai looked at his leaving back with deep eyes.

When Si Yaojin came to the main hall where he met the guests, he saw a very familiar figure. After seeing who that person was, he was surprised. 
Walking to the seat and sitting down, he greeted the people who came to sit down, and then said quietly.

"What's the matter, did something happen to the palace?"

The person who came was Wang Cheng, the leader of the guards of the palace. When questioned by his master, he knelt down on one knee, wanting to explain his purpose of coming.

"Reporting to the lord, the palace is fine, the little one came here this time under the orders of the Holy Majesty."

Hearing this, Si Yaojin felt strange, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "My lord, why did he ask you to come here?"

Wang Cheng's answer was very concise, "My lord, Your Majesty wants you to return to Beijing as soon as possible."

After being silent for a while, he sighed, "Did he say anything else?"

"My lord, the situation on the Holy Majesty's side is more complicated. Please go back to the capital for specific matters and wait until the Holy Majesty talks to you."

"Then just say it briefly."

Si Yaojin frowned and said, "Hurry up, I don't have that much time to waste time."

Wang Cheng smiled wryly, and briefly explained why the Holy Majesty wanted to find Si Yaojin.

"My lord, it's actually like this. The Holy Majesty is really busy recently, and he really needs you to go back and help him."

"I know. Get to the point."

"It's like this. After returning to Beijing some time ago, Shengshang issued an order to let farmers all over the country grow crops that can resist drought. It's just that after this order was issued, few people implemented it."

For farmers, food is life and money. When they grow crops, they usually choose rice and wheat. After all, these two are more mainstream. As for potatoes and sweet potatoes, there are fewer people who grow them.

After Si Yaowei returned to the capital, he ordered people to increase the planting of these two drought-resistant crops, but unfortunately the effect was minimal.

When Si Yaojin heard this, she couldn't help thinking that her second brother was really reckless this time. Although the real intention of this order was for the good of the people, who would know? Not only would everyone not be grateful to him, but they would think that He's out of his mind.

Rubbing her brows, Si Yaojin's head hurt even more.

Wang Cheng continued, "But two months have passed since the spring plowing, and even last autumn there was no rain, and now it has been dry for two consecutive seasons, and now..."

Needless to say, Si Yaojin already knew what was going on, and he had no good solution to the pain in his head, so he had to agree to go back to the capital first, and then see what to do.

Since Wang Cheng came, he had to go back with them, so after leaving the main hall, he asked someone to arrange a room for Wang Cheng to rest well, and then he had to think about how to communicate with his mother-in-law and father-in-law. Talk about bringing Bai Lai back to Beijing.
