In the imperial city.
After the refugees drank gruel at various soup kitchens at the three major city gates, they spontaneously gathered together and walked through the streets, muttering unconsciously.
If you listen carefully, you can hear the words His Highness the Seventh Prince from their mouths.
If it weren't for their haggard bodies and messy hair, it would have looked a bit like a street parade, but the current situation was more like a zombie siege.
Where the refugees gathered, a carriage stopped.
Lin Xianyu opened the curtain of the window and saw the scene in front of her. She closed her eyes and sighed, then put down the curtain and looked straight ahead. She didn't know what she was thinking.
"Let's go back to Taifu's Mansion."
Under her instructions, the carriage turned around and headed towards its destination.
She had seen some history books in her father's study before, which contained records about manipulating people's hearts.
She was still young at the time and didn't pay much attention.
In addition, the Daqian Dynasty has been relatively peaceful for so many years, especially there has been almost no trouble in the imperial city, so she has forgotten this matter.
But seeing these refugees today, her memory suddenly came back to life.
Isn't this scene exactly the same as what's recorded in the book?
"It would be great if the people's wisdom could be opened up." Lin Xianyu whispered.
One sentence in the book particularly impressed her.
If the people are not wise enough, they can be fooled.
Ye Yan didn't know that a chaos that was caused by him was getting worse.
In the plot of the novel he wrote, because of the snowstorm, the refugees in the imperial city were in chaos for a while, but the scene was not very big, and the male protagonist Ye Chen could control it alone.
But as far as the current situation is concerned, it may not be that easy for Ye Chen to control it alone.
But if Ye Yan knew, he wouldn't be too nervous.
The chaos that started because of him will also end because of him.
He can easily do what Ye Chen can't do. As long as he returns to the imperial city, everything can be solved.
This does not mean that his power and ability are greater than Ye Chen, it just means that he has been pushed to the forefront.
This is why it is said that times create heroes.
Generally speaking, the era when heroes emerge in large numbers must also be in troubled times.
The people who promoted this incident must not have imagined that Ye Yan could still find a large amount of food after the food around the imperial city was under their control.
Ye Yan's disappearance did not give them a chance, he went to look for food.
But sometimes it's like this. All the conspiracy and calculations lead to a coincidence.
Ye Yan and Lin Ranyu walked around the Peach Blossom Land. Because the Peach Blossom Land is like spring all year round, they can always see some scenes here that cannot be seen outside.
For example, in the middle of winter, there are actually fruits and vegetables growing very well in the fields.
Ye Yan squatted down and observed with interest.
The first thing that came to his mind was the greenhouses of the modern world.
If he had such a private place in the modern world, he wouldn't know how much money he would make a year.
It's a pity that the geographical conditions of the Peach Blossom Land are so magical that it probably only exists in the world of novels.
And when the Bai Li people move out, the existence of the Peach Blossom Land will become a legend in the novel world.
Ye Yan fiddled with it for a while, glanced at the vegetable garden, and prepared to get up and leave.
But as soon as he stood up, he suddenly became startled, and his eyes focused on the corner of the vegetable garden.
"How could this thing be here?" Ye Yan rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
After regaining his sight, the green fan-shaped leaves and stems appeared in his eyes again.
This showed that he was not wrong.
But even if he saw it right, it's possible that it just looks like it and may not be what he thinks.
To confirm, Ye Yan walked over quickly, grabbed the rhizome and pulled it out of the ground.
When he saw several round lumps of different sizes attached to the roots, it was completely confirmed that this was what he was thinking of - potatoes.
How could there be potatoes in the Daqian Dynasty?
Although the novels he wrote are based on imaginary history, they do not actually exist in history.
But his setting of the Daqian Dynasty was basically based on real history, which is equivalent to mixing things from several historical dynasties.
Therefore, there should not be such a thing as potatoes in the Daqian Dynasty, and he never wrote about it in the novel.
Unless, besides him, there is another transcendent in this world.
Could it be that the ancestor of the Bai Li tribe who discovered the Peach Blossom Land was the time traveler?
If the world of the novel can bring out the time-travelers as it improves itself, then it is not impossible.
Ye Yan began to carefully recall the contents of the novel, not missing any small details, especially the plot about the Land of Peach Blossoms and the ancestors of the Bai Li people.
He wanted to find out why the ancestors of the Bai Li people were also time travellers.
If the world of the novel improves itself, consider the ancestors of the Bai Li people as time-travelers.
So this shows that when he wrote the novel, he must have written certain necessary conditions so that the ancestor of the Bai Li tribe could only be explained if he was also a transcendent.
The plot of the novel was like a book, turning page by page in Ye Yan's mind.
In the end, the chapter stops at the plot where the male protagonist Ye Chen accidentally enters the Land of Peach Blossoms.
An inconspicuous detail let Ye Yan know where potatoes came from.
Apart from him, there is no other time traveler in this novel world. The ancestor of the Bai Li tribe does not have the necessary conditions to be a time traveler.
Strictly speaking, this is a bug he accidentally wrote while writing a novel.
In the novel, the male protagonist Ye Chen enters the Land of Peach Blossoms, and the people of the Bai Li tribe naturally regard him as a respected person.
At first, Ye Chen didn't believe what the Bai Li people said.
So the Bai Li people wanted to show Ye Chen that the Peach Blossom Land is indeed a magical place where it is like spring all year round.
Now comes the important part. The Bai Li people actually made a dish called Di San Xian for Ye Chen.
But now it’s embarrassing. The ingredients of Di Sanxian are potatoes, eggplants and peppers.
Eggplant has been recorded in ancient times, but peppers and potatoes only appeared after the Ming Dynasty.
And for a long time, peppers and potatoes were regarded as ornamental objects, and no one thought that these two things could be eaten.
In this case, how to make the three delicacies?
No wonder his previous novels were so popular that his writing was not sophisticated enough.
But now is not the time to pursue this. Since there are potatoes in the Peach Blossom Land, there will definitely be peppers.
Soon, Ye Yan found green peppers among the lush fruits and vegetables.
This is great, the hot pot restaurant you want to build can become more authentic.
Previously, Ye Yan used dogwood instead for spiciness, but now he can directly eliminate the dogwood.
Cornus officinalis is spicy, but it's not pungent. After all, it lacks a bit of flavor.
