At the moment of the establishment of the reserve, this is a critical moment to increase the chips for his father, and the prince is also afraid of accidents.

He immediately obeyed his father's instructions, ordered ten brave and good generals, and asked them to set out with Lord Censor, including General Zheng.

The two teams went out of the city together before dawn, and headed towards Liaodong.

Along the way, when they encounter a post station, they rest and change horses, and then they rush on the road without stopping.

They were all military generals, but it was okay, but they suffered from the doctor of the Censor. They had fine skin and tender meat. After following them on the road for ten days, their thighs were bleeding, and they even lost a layer of skin in the sun, and they almost suffered from heat stroke.

Fortunately, they arrived in Ning County at noon that day before he fell.

The sun at noon is the strongest in the day, afraid that the doctor's body could not bear it, they suggested to go to Zhuangzi, where Zhou Cheng lived before, to rest for a while.

Doctor Censor is an upright, stubborn and stubborn person who will do whatever the emperor instructs him to do.

Even though the sun is blazing right now, he doesn't want to rest much. After taking a sip of water on Zhuangzi, after sitting for a while, they asked to go to the ground. General Yun Hui had no objection, and it was nothing to them to travel. What's more, they have enough rest at night.

Zhou Cheng and General Zheng have no objection anymore. They are eager to complete the task quickly, and they will return to the capital to report the data after collecting the data. The king is still waiting for them.

Now Zhuangzi is more heavily guarded than before, with one post at ten steps and one post at five steps, and the number of soldiers guarding has increased to two battalions.

Zhou Cheng and the two teams of the imperial court were caught before they approached, and the guarding soldiers came out to look at them.

The captain of the guard was the former Captain Wu, and he hurried over after hearing the report.

Seeing that it was Zhou Cheng, he clasped his fists in surprise and saluted, "It turned out to be Zhou Cheng and General Zheng."

He looked beside them again and said solemnly, "Who are those people? This is an important place now. Without the prince's order, none of you can enter."

Captain Wu is business-like and does not show affection. These crops are very important, and the prince attaches great importance to them, and there is no room for failure.

"It should be, we just follow the rules. This is the doctor of the censor, and this is General Yun Hui. The prince came to the capital to celebrate the emperor's birthday and presented three kinds of seeds. Now that the corn was harvested, the emperor sent the doctor of the censor over. Conceived. The lord asked me to **** me. This is the lord's warrant and handwritten letter."

Zhou Cheng explained it to him, and handed him the order and the handwritten script for his review.

Captain Wu released it after repeated confirmation, and said politely, "I have just offended you, and the last general is also on business."

"You have done a good job. Friendship is private, and business should be done in public." General Zheng smiled and nodded.

Captain Wu took their group to the cornfield, and the farmer came to accompany him when he found out.

Zhou Cheng looked at the corn in this large field and couldn't help but be surprised, "How much do you plant? Aren't the fields next to the villagers?"

"We selected the best quality 100 catties of corn seeds and planted 20 acres of land, and the other seeds were distributed to other villages in the palace. We also rented 40 acres of land at a high price with the nearby villagers, and each planted 20 acres of land. potatoes, sweet potatoes."

After he finished speaking, the farmer officer handed over a copy of the planting notes he carried with him to the doctor for review. He is used to making two copies of his notes, handing in one, and keeping one for himself, which he also needs to read from time to time.

Captain Wu also said: "Fortunately, you came here in time. Recently, we have been hesitating whether to pick the corn. Before the prince left, he told us that we would have to wait for his order before we could harvest it, but we were all mature, but we never waited for the order. We are all worried and don't know what to do. We are afraid that it will be delayed for too long and the delivery time will be delayed."

"Are these husks just corn?"

Doctor Censor looked at the rows of neatly growing poles, went down to touch it, saw two buds growing on one pole, touched it, and asked curiously.

"Yes, my lord. If the whiskers of the tail turn black, it means that the corn is ripe. Some of these have been ripe for several days, and some are just ripe, but they can be picked. Under the official, this means that the soldiers will start picking? "The farmer replied.

Doctor Censor nodded, "Well, it's all picked. The situation in the capital is tense. Let's finish picking as soon as possible, get the data as soon as possible, and leave for Beijing as soon as possible."

Others thought so too.

A battalion of soldiers was left to guard, and the others, Captain Wu, were transferred over to pick corn together. They went to sit in the shade and rest for a while.

There are so many people and great strength, and after a while, baskets of corn will be lifted up.

Doctor Censor took a few and peeled off the skin to check it. After confirming that it was the same as what he saw in the main hall, he began to exaggerate.

In case the data was recorded incorrectly, he asked the farmers and officials to record them at the same time, so that they could check the right and wrong at that time.

He also asked General Yun Hui to send two soldiers to measure the land and check whether it was twenty acres.

There's nothing wrong with being careful.

Zhou Cheng watched with admiration, being so careful, no wonder he was able to gain the emperor's trust.

After they have registered more than half, they will first calculate the total number, otherwise all of them will be registered at once, and if the data is wrong, they will have to re-register from the beginning, which is too time-consuming.

After all the statistics were done, the sun went down, and the doctor of the Censor couldn't help but get excited after calculating the yield per mu. This was 200 catties more than the yield per mu reported by the King of Liaodong!

After checking it with the farmer, he held the planting record tightly and couldn't help pacing back and forth around the corn.

What the King of Liaodong reported is true. This corn is so amazing, it is a blessing to the people of the world.

He couldn't help but look forward to the distant potatoes and sweet potatoes, which have higher yields.

"Lord Yushi~www.readwn.com~ General Yun Hui, let's have dinner first, and have a night's rest at Zhuangzi tonight. Is it possible for us to go back to Beijing in the morning?" go back.

General Yun Hui looked at Doctor Yushi, "Can Lord Yushi still hurry? Do you want to take an extra day off?"

"It doesn't matter, it is more important to return to Beijing to return to life. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are probably waiting for the result. It is about the important matter of the King of Liaodong. It is better for us to return to Beijing as soon as possible." Lord Censor said with a smile.

Everyone understood the deep meaning of the words, and the generals of the palace couldn't help but be happy, and now even the doctor of the imperial censor is on the side of their prince.

He carried two baskets of corn to be brought to Beijing to Zhuangzi, and left the rest to Captain Wu.

Living in this village again, Zhou Cheng thought about the whole family living here for a year, and couldn't help thinking about his wife and children.

But with the emperor's life on his side, he couldn't leave the team at will. Today is the first day of the new year, and it has been more than a month since the letter was sent. I don't know if his daughter-in-law has received the letter.
