Very quickly!
Xu Da rushed to the Imperial Palace!
For some reason, Xu Da felt that something was about to happen. Otherwise, why would his eyelids keep twitching?
But he didn't think too much about it and continued to speed up to the Imperial Palace!
Finally, Xu Da saw Zhu Yuanzhang and his son roasting sweet potatoes and potatoes in a remote courtyard!
Xu Da looked strangely at the pile of dirt that was piled up into a small mountain not far away!
Then, he said in a clear voice,"I, Xu Da, pay my respects to the Emperor. May Your Majesty's holy bow be in peace!"”
"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the King of Chu!”
Zhu Biao and Zhu Zhen hurriedly stood up and turned around.
Zhu Biao walked over and pulled Xu Da up.
"Uncle Xu, I called you here today to chat about family matters. Don't stand on ceremony!”
Zhu Yuanzhang threw Zhu Biao's sweet potato to the side of the fire,
He placed his sweet potatoes on the side of the fire.
With a satisfied expression, he looked at Xu Da and said,
"Tiande, come, come. I'll let you taste something good.
I guarantee it'll be even better than roast goose!"
Zhu Zhen hurriedly nodded and brought a stool over for Xu Da!
Xu Da glanced at Zhu Biao, and Zhu Biao nodded in acknowledgment!
Xu Da raised his eyebrows, but he still walked over and sat down.
He looked at the lump of dirt in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand.
Xu Da said doubtfully,
"Your Majesty, what is this?"
"Haha, come, try it first!”
Zhu Yuanzhang directly handed the sweet potato that Zhu Zhen had roasted to Xu Da.
Although Xu Da was puzzled, he still took it and was about to bite it with some disdain!
Zhu Zhen hurriedly stopped him and quickly helped Xu Da peel off the black skin of the sweet potato.
It revealed the red meat that was emitting hot steam!
Xu Da was slightly surprised. He smelled a special fragrance.
It made his stomach grumble unconsciously.
It was obvious that he had rushed to the palace without eating.
Xu Da was a little embarrassed. Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, indicating for him to eat quickly!
Xu Da took a small bite!
First, he frowned. It was a little hot!
Then, it turned into deep surprise.
He took another bite.
Sweet!
Fragrant!
Glutinous!
Then, he quickly finished the whole thing and suddenly wanted to eat more!
Zhu Zhen had already peeled another one and handed it over. This time, Xu Da looked at Zhu Zhen with admiration.
She continued eating, completely forgetting where she was.
In the end, Xu Da only burped after eating four sweet potatoes the size of a fist. He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with an embarrassed expression!
Zhu Yuanzhang also looked at Xu Da with a smile.
"How is it, Tiande? It's delicious, right?"
Xu Da nodded and hurriedly asked,
"Emperor, what is this? Why is it so delicious?”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled without saying a word. He handed over a roasted potato and said,
"Try this!"
Although Xu Da was a little full, he could still eat!
Hence, he continued to eat a roasted potato!
But this time, he did not continue eating.
"This is not as delicious as the one just now!”
"Emperor, what is this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and looked at Zhu Biao,
"Boss, explain to your Uncle Xu!”
Zhu Biao nodded and began to tell Xu Da about the origins of sweet potatoes and potatoes.
The benefits of planting, the conditions for planting, and finally, the yield!
When Xu Da heard Zhu Biao say that sweet potatoes and potatoes could produce 6,000 catties per mu, he almost had a heartache!
After confirming it again, Xu Da's eyes gradually turned solemn, and finally, it turned into a thick surprise!
Xu Da knelt down." Congratulations, Your Majesty, for obtaining such a divine item. The Ming Dynasty will last forever!”
Zhu Yuanzhang happily pulled Xu Da up.
He pointed at the reserved Zhu Zhen and said with a smile,
"Tiande, these things were all made by your son-in-law, King Chu. You should congratulate him!”
Xu Da was stunned and looked at Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao nodded." Uncle Xu, these sweet potatoes and potatoes were grown by Sixth Brother himself.
A total of 12,200 catties of sweet potatoes and 18,000 catties of potatoes were harvested!
Apart from the seeds, this food was enough to feed the refugees and beggars in the suburbs!”
Xu Da's eyes widened. He knew that the Crown Prince was not the kind of person to spout nonsense.
Since he said so, then it must be so!
At this moment, Xu Da looked at Zhu Zhen in shock!
Finally, he sighed.
"You've done well, you've completed the second requirement!”
Zhu Zhen cupped his fists and smiled." Thank you, father-in-law!”
Xu Da was speechless.
He was very happy that Da Ming had obtained these two divine items.
However, he gritted his teeth at Zhu Zhen's smugness!
This slap in the face came too quickly!
That's not right. Since this kid dared to agree so readily yesterday, he must have been prepared!
He had been scammed!
When he thought of this, Xu Da's gaze towards Zhu Zhen instantly turned unfriendly!
He thought to himself,
"You can pass this round, but there is still the Northern Expedition to join the army.
When the time comes, they will be my soldiers, and they will be at my mercy!”
Zhu Zhen suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He felt as if he had been schemed against!
Soon, Xu Da brought some raw sweet potatoes and potatoes home!
……
The Duke of Wei's Mansion,
Xu Da let Xu Miaoyun, Xu Miaojin, Xu Zuhui, and Xu Zengshou taste the sweet potatoes and potatoes.
The few of them narrowed their eyes at the delicious food!
When Xu Miaoyun found out that this was the work of Chu King Zhu Zhen, she was overjoyed!
He looked at Xu Da and smiled." Father, I told you King Chu wasn't as bad as you thought!”
Xu Da's gaze was unfriendly. He felt that his daughter was becoming more and more biased towards outsiders!
