"Thirty dan?" All the officials in the court felt that they might have heard wrongly. Although they did not care about the affairs of the court, they were very clear about the matter of two to three stones of grain per mu. The tax was also determined by the harvest. When they suddenly heard that the yield per mu was 30 stones, their first thought was that it was impossible.
Three stones per mu was already an absolute high yield.
Thirty dan per mu? What kind of concept was that?
It was impossible.
How was this possible?
"Minister Yu, do you know what you are talking about?”the empress said.
"Your Majesty, this lowly subject is speaking the truth. If Your Majesty does not believe me, you can follow this subject to see it personally.”Yu Shangshu said.
"Boom!" The shocking thunderbolt fell again.
The empress was in disbelief. She forced herself to be calm and said,"Thirty dan?"
"Your Majesty, 30 dan per mu!"
At this moment, a figure appeared in the empress's mind.
Did that dog really create a miracle?
I thought he was wasting time in the Ministry of Works, but he slapped me in the face in the blink of an eye. He developed a rare product?
It was too late for her to get angry. The empress was overjoyed and impatient."Quick, set up the carriage and bring zhen to take a look.”
The officials were also shocked.
All of them understood that the situation was about to change.
30 dan per mu.
Splashing Heaven's Merit.
Splashing Heaven's Merit.
Uncommon behavior.
They all wanted to follow him but were stopped by Wei Ge and Wang Shoufu.
What kind of etiquette is this?
All of them felt resentment but didn't dare to say anything. In the end, only Chief Wang, Wei Ge, the palace guards, and eunuchs followed.
"Your Majesty, please reconsider."
"Your Majesty, safety is the most important thing." After the initial excitement, the officials finally reacted. If they were to leave so suddenly and rashly, all the officials would know that if the news was not kept secret, something might happen. They all tried to dissuade them.
"Get lost!" The empress responded coldly and scolded a few archdukes in the imperial court before suppressing her anger.
"Don't worry, I've already sent a pigeon to invite Zhao, Zuo, Yang, and Qi to come personally.”Wei Ge said. The four of them were all top experts and were known as the Four Divine Arresters in the Six Fan School.
"This old servant is not dead yet." A pale-faced, senile old eunuch came out from the depths of the Imperial Palace and appeared beside the official couch in the blink of an eye. No one saw how he came out or when he appeared, but the moment he appeared, all the civil and military officials let out a sigh of relief, and ninety percent of the worry in their hearts disappeared.
"Thank you, Eunuch Liu." Wei Ge said.
Chief Wang nodded.
"This is a serious matter. I won't let Your Majesty lose a single hair. Your Majesty must also go and take a look.”Eunuch Liu was obviously shocked by the news, so not only did he not stop them, he even personally came out to protect them.
"Let's go." The empress had left the palace.
The emperor's presence was not particularly grand, and even the common people did not know the inside story.
They arrived at the outskirts of the capital. Halfway through the journey, when they reached the farmland, the carriage could not be used anymore. They could only carry the proud son and move forward on the muddy paddy field path.
There was a total of five senses sedan chairs.
Chief Wang, Wei Ge, the Empress, Eunuch Liu, and the Minister of Works.
In addition, there were three peerless experts riding on horses. Each of them stared at their surroundings with cold eyes. Some of them were holding sabers, while others were holding folding fans. They sat on horses with cold expressions, but they all had a disdainful attitude. These three were all peerless experts.
In addition, there were nearly 50 Embroidered Uniform Guards accompanying them. Among these Embroidered Uniform Guards, there were also three young men in armor. Their auras were astonishing. They were like sharp blades that were about to be unsheathed and would cut anything that approached them into countless pieces.
These three were also experts.
The other Embroidered Uniform Guards were all experts.
Of the five sedan chairs, the empress's was firmly protected in the middle.
In the empress's large and luxurious sedan chair, there was another figure.
The silver-masked leader of the Black Dragon Guard, Zi 'er, was also sitting in the carriage.
She looked at the Emperor. The extraordinary empress in the imperial court was a little absent-minded.
"Zi 'er, that dog really has some achievements.”the empress said.
"Your Majesty, yes, Minister Yu would not dare to lie to you about this matter.”
"Doesn't that mean that it's almost impossible for me to kill him in the future?”the empress said.
"Your Majesty, you can't kill someone who has made such a great contribution. However, as long as you have an excuse, you can kill them if you want.”Zi-er said.
Upon hearing this, the empress smiled and nodded her head in satisfaction. At this moment, the palanquin jolted and the empress frowned slightly."That dog also passed through here?”
"Your Majesty, look over there." Zi 'er lifted a corner of the curtain and pointed at a rugged muddy road outside.
The empress looked over and saw a small path in the fields.
Zi-er said," At the beginning, Lord Mu was holding on to his crutches. Step by step, his clothes were soaked in blood. After that, Minister Yu couldn't stand it and asked someone to give him a stretcher. Only then did Lord Mu rest.”
"This fellow is just pretending to be arrogant. BenGong lacks everything, but not their salary. Is it difficult to hire people?”the empress said.
Zi-er smiled. The Emperor's words were unpleasant, but the Emperor knew very well in his heart that Daren was already a good official even though he had come at night with injuries. How many people could be a rare good official? Moreover, Daren has made a shocking contribution.
His Majesty should have loved and hated him. It was just that Scholar Mu's attitude towards His Majesty was so bad that His Majesty could not get over the hurdle in his heart and deliberately restrained himself.
……
Soon, the official sedan arrived at the private fields and carried them all the way to the place where the potatoes were finished.
"Your Majesty, this is Scholar Mu's achievement.”Immediately, some farmers started digging.
The current court officials and the empress gasped when they saw this. Just by looking at it, they knew how terrifying the production was.
" Your Majesty, this is a black bean. The yield of this crop is extremely low, and it's almost impossible to produce a high yield. However, Lord Mu painstakingly researched and cultivated it, creating a cross-pollinating flower that is incredible to our Ministry of Works. It can be said to be the work of heaven. He improved it and achieved today's results. Now, it seems that it's still incredible..."
"Good, good!" The Female Empress was delighted. She knew that black beans tasted good and could be eaten.
"What technique is cross-pollinating?" the empress asked with interest.
" Your Majesty, this is a wonderful method discovered by Scholar Mu. He observed the crops in the world and finally made a bold and meticulous guess. He speculated that plants rely on pollen to produce offspring, and pollen is spread by bees, wind, and other insects. In this way, it can only be transmitted from a short distance. There are no more possibilities. Therefore, Scholar Mu developed a method to collect pollen himself and take the initiative to help pollinate. Only then did he cultivate such a peerless crop. There are still some other ways. For example, combining pollen from different flower species. Scholar Mu had studied it for a long time…Until a month ago, Scholar Mu had also succeeded in his painstaking research. He had also discovered that this crop could be planted on a large scale and could benefit the people of the world.”
"I see." The empress was intelligent to begin with, so she understood half of it.
He took a light breath and said," This minister Ni's way of thinking is indeed unique. He can always obtain unimaginable results from unexpected places."”
"Your Majesty, Scholar Mu is a heaven-sent minister.”Wei Ge did not care about the mess. He held a palm-sized potato in one hand and sighed sincerely.
"Your Majesty, good minister, Scholar Mu has worked hard and made great contributions. He should be given a title.”
"Your Majesty, I think so too." The Minister of Works had a respectful expression.
Upon hearing the words of the three capable ministers, the empress's beautiful face instantly darkened. Then, she became expressionless. It was obvious that she was in a bad mood.
The more capable Mu Yu was, the more unhappy she was.
The three ministers frowned and wanted to say something.
However, in the blink of an eye, the empress smiled when she saw the potatoes on the ground.
"Yes, it should be rewarded." She hated this rebellious official, but he deserved to be rewarded. If he dared to provoke her again, he deserved to be killed.
P.S. Thank you for your monthly votes, please give me a few flowers.
