After June, Lin'an took the lead in harvesting the first batch of mature potatoes.
The people recruited by the Xie family to harvest did not know these two things.
They only know that the yield is very high, higher than that of rice.
Only when I dug out potatoes from the soil and saw several as big potatoes growing on one tuber did I completely believe what the Xie family said.
These things they have never seen before can really feed a lot of people!
In order to make the people happier and more hopeful, Jin Yan asked the Xie family guards to bake some newly ripe potatoes and share them with them.
He also told them that in the future, all farmers in Lin'an, and even people all over the world, would be able to grow potatoes.
Suddenly, all the people in Xie's farmland who had tasted the sweetness of potatoes were cheering, shouting, and crying with excitement.
At the same time, people from the government office and people from Xie's accounting office completed the statistics of potato production in the field.
On such an important day, Xie Xi and He Zhifu were naturally in the field.
He Zhifu took a bite of the raw potato, and his eyes became moist without knowing it. "If there was such a high-yielding and filling food in the year I went out, the people in the county would not have starved to death in vain." ”
Xie Xi looked at the busy people in the distance, and finally his eyes rested on Jin Yan, who was digging a hole in the ground to bake potatoes with a few maids.
The common people clamored to build a golden body for him and thank him for being a living Bodhisattva, but how did they know that it was his precious daughter who really brought them good fortune?
Only this kid doesn't care about those things at all.
"Not anymore," he said.
It doesn't matter if Yan Yan doesn't care, but this credit can only be hers.
I only hope that with this great merit, God can give his daughter a healthy body in the next life, so that she will no longer suffer from the slightest pain.
Zhifu He wiped away his tears and said excitedly: "Yes, not anymore, our people will never go hungry again!"
After a pause, he sighed again, "Brother Xie, you have been helping me a lot since we met in Beijing for the exam. When I was sent to a barren and barren land, you gave me advice and helped me rectify the county government and rescue the people. I Every promotion in my life is inseparable from your help. You have saved me from danger several times, and now you have allowed me to bring this great gift to Beijing to meet the saints... How can I be so virtuous and capable, and how can I repay you? Your kindness!”
He has finally ended his exile and is returning to the court to serve as an official.
His Majesty may not care about him as a small prefect, but if he sees with his own eyes how high the yield of potatoes is, he will definitely be delighted.
Xie Xi's move was tantamount to giving him a share of the credit!
Xie Xi said calmly: "Just saying this makes us angry."
Magistrate He glanced at him and sighed: "Brother Xie is generous and righteous, upright and upright, without thinking of anything in return, but I can't refuse to repay him. Again, if anything happens to Brother Xie, just ask someone to send you a message, and I will take care of it." Go through fire and water, even to death!"
What Magistrate He didn't know was that there were countless people in the court who were willing to go to any lengths to save Xie Xi.
As for the whole world, let alone that.
The next day, Magistrate He set foot on the road back to Beijing with the people who escorted Tudou to Beijing.
The climate in the capital is different from that in the south of the Yangtze River, and the potatoes have not yet reached maturity. Therefore, many people in the court felt that Xun Yu was talking nonsense and did not believe that potatoes could really have such a high yield.
Until He Zhifu arrived in the capital.
When the straw mats and quilts covering the cart were untied and large round potatoes were exposed, all the ministers stared.
The emperor picked up a few tender potatoes and weighed them in his hands. The smile in his eyes could no longer be hidden.
"Your Majesty, this is the planting method and cost calculation recorded on the Xie family farm. From the time the potatoes are planted to maturity, how to fertilize and eliminate insects during the period is clearly written. Finally, there is the yield statistics."
Magistrate He handed over all the account books.
The emperor looked at the account book, his brows stretched and tightened for a while. When he saw something, he suddenly shouted "Okay."
"With this thing, the people will never have enough to eat!" The emperor sighed with emotion.
The ministers didn't know why, but Xun Yu had already shouted: "Your Majesty is wise, the world is at peace, God bless the Great Xi!"
Zhifu He glanced at Xun Yu, immediately knelt down and shouted the same words excitedly.
No wonder Xie Xi looked at him so strangely when he said he would help take care of Xun Yu!
No wonder Xun Yu rose so quickly!
Look at the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. They are all as lumpy as elm trees, and they can’t even flatter them.
Looking at Xun Yu again, one sentence made the already overjoyed emperor even happier. This is the gap between people!
The emperor did not forget Xie Xi's contribution.
He only asked one question, and Magistrate He described the scene of people busy harvesting in Xie's farmland.
Hearing the smiles on the faces of the people, the emperor also laughed.
Only Xun Yu was a little absent-minded.
When the emperor and his ministers were discussing the promotion of potato cultivation, he called Magistrate He aside and specifically asked for news about Jin Yan.
When the discussion came later, he didn't listen to anything the emperor said. All he could think about was Jin Yan's figure.
In late July, it rained heavily in Beijing for seven or eight consecutive days.
After the rain passed and the sky cleared, the Xie family's caravan arrived in the capital carrying the freshly baked corn.
The emperor was delighted again.
In mid-August, Xun Yu was appointed as an imperial envoy and went to Jiangnan to investigate the case according to the emperor's order.
His first stop was Lin'an.
Jin Yan had received a letter from the old steward earlier and knew that Xun Yu was going to Jiangnan to investigate the case, but she didn't know that he had more than one mission.
After the imperial envoy arrived in Lin'an, he was arranged to go to Xie Xi. Xun Yu took Qi Jiu and the emperor's attendants to Xie's house.
Jin Yan got the news and hurried out to see him, "Xun Yu..."
The emperor's servant?
Jin Yan saw someone holding what seemed to be an imperial edict in his hand.
She was about to ask Xun Yu what was going on. Didn't she ask for another imperial edict to consummate the marriage because she didn't get enough of the beating?
At this time Xie Xi came out.
The attendant respectfully handed the imperial edict into Xun Yu's hands, "Master Xun, Your Majesty said that it is most appropriate for you to read this edict."
Xun Yu: "..."
Jin Yan: "..."
Xie Xi: "..."
The look in Xie Xi's eyes could no longer be compared with a knife. It was a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, a cremation furnace formed by the murderous aura of hell.
It seemed that in the next moment, Xun Yu would be burned to the point of death.
Jin Yan glanced at Xie Xi and silently lit a candle for Xun Yu.
She didn't realize that her father didn't even give her the respect of the emperor. He never went to the capital again after the emperor said he would accept her as his adopted daughter.
Xun Yu really didn’t forget to eat and not to fight. He was so brave!
Xie Lin's eyes were full of anger and hostility.
Even Qi Jiu showed a puzzled expression.
Master, are you going to rebel?
Facing the eyes of everyone, Xun Yu was also confused and innocent.
What are you watching him do?
Heaven and earth can tell, this imperial edict was really not invited by him.
