Li Er looked at Chu Tian with a dull gaze, trying to get some information from Chu Tian's eyes. However, Chu Tian's eyes were extremely calm, as if he did not care about this matter.
"Your Majesty, do you think I have the ability?”
Li Er smiled awkwardly. He did not ask about this matter anymore. It was better to wait for the results of the investigation.
"Cough cough…Perhaps I'm thinking too much!"
At this moment, Li Er turned his head and stared at Chu Tian's figure.""Chu Tian, there's something else I want to ask you.”
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
"Recently, there has been a serious famine in various places. What do you think about this?”Li Er mentioned one of the things that had been giving him a headache recently, which was famine.
"It's a famine. Just provide food for the victims!”Chu Tian said straightforwardly. There was no special way to deal with this kind of thing.
"Uh... Just this?" Li Er was stunned. He originally thought that this peerless genius would have some good idea, but he told him this?
"That's right, that's enough."
"You might not know this, but the famine is caused by the drought and locust plague. Our granaries are basically short of food. How can we distribute food? Moreover, if the drought and locust plague were not resolved, it would be a drop in the bucket!”Li Er sighed and said. Chu Tian said after hearing him.
"The drought and locust plague can't be dealt with so quickly, but in terms of food, we can just plant sweet potatoes or potatoes!”Chu Tian said calmly, while Li Er was even more puzzled.
"Sweet potatoes? What is this?"
"It's from a high-yield food crop. Although it can't be used as a staple food, it's enough for disaster relief! Moreover, the weather in Chang 'an was suitable for growing such crops.”
"Hiss... There's also this kind of grain that I don't know about. The sweet potatoes you're talking about, how many sweet potatoes can be produced per mu? How many catties can there be?”
“??How many catties? His Majesty had underestimated the word 'high-yielding.' One Mu of land…It was probably a few dozen catties. If it was properly nurtured, it might even be a hundred catties!”
"What? Dozens or even hundreds of kilograms! It was just one mu of land. If it was a thousand mu, if it was ten thousand mu! This famine won't be a problem anymore." Li Er stood up and shouted in shock.
"Then how can this sweet potato be produced?”
Li Er said anxiously. He came to Chu Tian's side and grabbed his hand.
"This, I'll take some time to plant some when I go back. When the time comes, Your Majesty can find someone to cultivate them!”
"Hu hu…Chu Tian, you've once done something that has benefited the Tang Empire. Genius, he's definitely a genius."
Li Er was extremely shocked by Chu Tian in front of him. He was able to solve the famine that he and the courtiers had been unable to solve for months.
If this kind of person wasn't a genius, then what was he?
Li Er returned to his seat and calmed himself down. Then, he raised his head and smiled."Chu Tian, do you want to be an official? With your talent, you can definitely be a good official!”
"Hehe, Your Majesty is flattering me. I'm a well-known silkpants young master and am not suitable to be an official. Moreover, I don't want to enter the official career!”
"So, forget about being an official!”Chu Tian rejected him directly, while Li Er sighed endlessly. It was a pity that such a talent didn't go to work as an official.
Hehe, only a fool would become an official. I'm looking for trouble by working hard for you!
"In that case, what reward do you want?”
"A reward? Speaking of which, I really want a reward!”
"Tell me." Li Er's interest was piqued, and he was stunned after hearing it.
"Just this?"
"Yes, this one!"
"Alright, I'll get someone to send it to you.”
After saying that, Chu Tian got up and was about to leave when Li Er suddenly shouted.
"Chu Tian, when are you going to marry Chang Le?”
After hearing this, Chu Tian shook his head slightly and said,""Your Majesty, I advise you not to harbor such thoughts.”
Li Er frowned slightly and asked in confusion,""What do you mean? Are you really going to marry that woman?”
"That's not the only reason. May I ask how old Changle is this year?”
"Twenty-eight!" Li Er asked curiously, puzzled by Chu Tian's thoughts.
"16 years old. Your Majesty, don't you think that this age is too early? A woman at this age is not yet mature. Once she becomes pregnant, her life may be in danger. Even if she is lucky enough to survive, she will leave a disease for herself and her descendants!”Chu Tian directly voiced his thoughts, and even allowed him to touch the sixteen-year-old Chang Le…
"Hiss... What you said is true. You're not fooling me, right?”
Li Er said in shock. He hadn't even thought about this question, and Chu Tian spoke up again.
"Your Majesty, think about it and you will know.”After saying that, Chu Tian left immediately.
Li Er lowered his head and pondered. Suddenly, he remembered that Empress Zhangsun married him at this age. After that, she began to be weak and sick, and even contracted Qi disease.
As for his sons, they were also extremely weak. For example, the King of Wei was born extremely fat.
"Is what Chu Tian said true?”
"Damn, it seems that I can't let Changle get married in the next two years.”In the end, Li Er no longer had any thoughts of urging Chang Le to get married.
"Chu Tian, you must become my son-in-law. Such a talent is rare!”Li Er looked at Chu Tian's back and said with a smile.
......
After Chu Tian came out, he didn't leave the palace directly. Instead, he sneaked into the harem.
After entering the harem, Chu Tian walked with his head lowered so as not to attract attention.
Suddenly, Chu Tian bumped into a figure and knocked down a woman with long hair.
Chu Tian raised his head slightly, walked over, and extended his hand with a smile.""Are you alright?"
The woman was wearing a long white dress. Her hair fell to her shoulders, and her face was as white as jade. Her watery eyes were amazing.
This woman was Princess Changle of the Tang Empire. Changle looked at the gentle and elegant Chu Tian in front of him and was slightly stunned.
Finally, Chang Le grabbed Chu Tian's hand, stood up, and said,""I'm sorry for knocking you down just now!”
"It's fine. I didn't really watch the road. I still have something to do and I'll leave first!”
After saying that, Chu Tian walked past Chang Le and left. Chang Le turned his head and looked at Chu Tian's back curiously, a glint flashing in his eyes.
If Chang Le knew that the man in front of him was her fiancé…He wouldn't be so calm.
Chu Tian came before a palace. There was a dignified noblewoman in a purple robe.
This person was the mother of the Great Tang, Empress Zhangsun! Chu Tian's target this time was her!
