This brat would occasionally come up with some new words that he could not understand even if he racked his brains.
"Lan 'er, in that case, that otherworldly expert is on the same side as Great Qin, right?”
"Yes." Ying Lan nodded indifferently.
Nonsense, did Lord Zheng want to see father and son turn against each other?
"That's good, that's good." After receiving an affirmative answer, Ying Zheng seemed to have taken a pill of reassurance, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"By the way, Lan 'er, do you know where the Nether Army is?”Ying Zheng asked indirectly.
"I'm not sure."
It seems that Master Zheng's ability is not good either. He didn't even find out that they were planting vegetables in my vegetable garden.
Growing vegetables? The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. An Earth Realm expert with average strength was actually thrown into a vegetable garden to grow vegetables?!
Was this world too crazy, or was he just making a fuss over nothing?
Just as Ying Zheng was about to speak, Madam Qi carried two plates of steaming hot dishes.
"Your Majesty, come and try my cooking. Although it's not as good as Lan 'er's, the ingredients are delicious.”
Ying Zheng was a little surprised. He had eaten all the delicacies in the world, but he had never seen these two dishes before.
"What is this?"
"This is the sour and spicy shredded potato. I specially used the center part of the potato to cut it into shreds and stir-fry it with seasoning. It is sour, crisp, and refreshing, with a spicy aftertaste.
This was ham stir-fried corn. It was marinated pork hind leg meat. It was salty and fragrant just right, and it was chewy. With the soft and sweet corn, it had a unique flavor!”Consort Qi took her time to introduce them, memorizing Ying Lan's words in her heart and inadvertently showing off in front of the Emperor.
"Ham, marinated with pig hind leg meat. I can understand this, but what are corn and potatoes?”Without any hesitation, Ying Zheng picked up his chopsticks and tasted the food.
This little detail touched Consort Qi. According to the normal procedure, there must be a servant to taste the food, or a silver needle to test the poison. However, Ying Zheng directly omitted this step, which was enough to prove his trust in her.
In fact, what Ying Zheng was thinking was that the Bloody Butcher should be hiding in the dark. If he had ulterior motives, there was no need for him to resort to such a roundabout method like poisoning. Instead of taking off his pants and farting, it would be better to show his full sincerity.
"Huh?" Ying Zheng widened his eyes and let out a low cry.
"What is it, Your Majesty?" Ge Nia frowned and hurriedly asked.
"Wonderful, wonderful. This Emperor has never eaten such a delicacy before. Consort Qi, you have good culinary skills. Those imperial chefs are simply rice buckets compared to you!”Ying Zheng was so excited that every taste bud on his tongue was awakened.
"Your Majesty, you flatter me. The main thing is that the ingredients are delicious, and there are also all kinds of seasonings made by Lan 'er.”Consort Qi waved her hands.
"Where did the ingredients come from?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.
"Lan 'er planted it…" Consort Qi did not hide anything.
Ying Zheng suddenly remembered what Ying Lan had muttered in his heart last time, about the super wheat that could yield two thousand catties per mu and the corn that could yield more than one thousand catties per mu.
However, Ying Zheng could not reveal his secret, so he did not ask further.
Wait, planting vegetables, vegetable garden?
"Can you show me?" Ying Zheng's eyes immediately lit up. Just now, he did not know how to open his mouth, but now, he could follow the clues and find out the truth.
"No." Consort Qi had yet to speak when Ying Lan rejected her.
"What's wrong, Lan 'er? Don't tell me I'm not worthy of visiting your vegetable garden?”Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, and there was even a hint of bitterness in his tone.
"Hiss." The servants at the side were so shocked that they could not speak. This was the current Emperor, the ruler of Great Qin, and he actually doted on Ying Lan so much.
They were afraid that Ying Lan would say something wrong. It wasn't because of anything else, but because they were servants who went in and out of the vegetable garden all day long. If Ying Lan nodded and admitted it, they might lose their lives.
"Cough cough, it's not that bad, it's not that bad. Wherever Great Qin's cavalry goes, it's Qin territory. Father, you can go wherever you want.”Ying Lan coughed dryly.
Wasn't this a moral kidnapping? What if he sees the fields with bountiful harvests and thousands of Netherworld troops? Wouldn't I be treated like a living Buddha?
"It's fine. Lan 'er is so outstanding. I can't wait to be happy. How can I be scared? Let's go.”Ying Zheng stood up impatiently. Although the two delicious dishes had attracted him, he was more concerned about the situation in the vegetable garden.
The group of people got on the carriage and arrived at a field around Xianyang City.
Although he was mentally prepared, the scene before his eyes still deeply shocked Ying Zheng.
There were potatoes, corn, and wheat in the endless fields. The yield was indeed ridiculously high. Not only that, there were thousands of farmers using farming equipment to bag them in an orderly manner.
"Nether Army!" Ge Nia's eyes lit up. These people looked ordinary, but they had all reached the Earth Realm!
The Bloody Butcher was in Xianyang Palace, but the Nether Army was outside Xianyang City. But it made sense. How could there be thousands of people hiding in the palace without any clues?
" Earth Realm experts actually came all the way here to farm…" Ge Nia was speechless. As long as he could make good use of this army, Great Qin wouldn't have to worry about success.
" Cough, Mr. Gai, do you look down on farming? The Bloody-handed Butcher cares about the world. Every year, there is a drought in the east of the river. Many people starve to death on the streets. This food can save at least tens of thousands of families.”Ying Lan curled her lips.
Ge Nia was slightly embarrassed as he explained," Sixth Prince, I didn't mean it that way. I just feel that they originally had a bigger world, and this kind of thing can be left to the ordinary people.”
Ge Nia didn't like this lazy prince who relied on his power and had average talent. However, he was deeply liked by the Bloody-handed Butcher, so he could only be polite.
"That's right, Lan 'er, it's a waste of talent. Talk to the Bloody Butcher and tell him that he doesn't want to belong to Great Qin.”Ying Zheng looked as if he was wasting a treasure.
Sigh, I just want to be a salted fish. Why are you forcing me to make a name for myself? Now that the system had changed to a weekly contract, once it became a monthly or annual contract, other than knowing the future, what other advantage would I have?
"Imperial Father, the Bloody Butcher can't interfere in the mortal world. He stayed in Great Qin because he was a descendant of Yan Huang before he became an immortal.”Ying Lan said seriously.
" I see..." Ying Zheng looked enlightened.
Immortals? Ge Nia gulped. It was said that after surpassing the God Realm, one could transcend the tribulation and become an immortal. They could master the divine arts of the world and look down on all living beings.
However, those were all rumors. In the past thousand years, there seemed to be no such monstrous existence.
Ge Nia had wanted to ask Bloody Butcher for advice. Even if it was just a few words, he would be able to benefit greatly. In the end, he realized that they were on a different level.
It was like a soldier at the lowest level. How could he possibly talk to an emperor?
Ying Lan heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Ying Zheng's expression as if he believed her.
Sigh, I don't know how to restore the daily lot.
In the past, he had randomly signed in to the Nether Army every day. He would get three or four at a time. Now, he could not stay idle anymore. The system had been downgraded to weekly and monthly. There was even a certain probability that he would receive a 'thank you for your patrony'. He was very annoyed.
[Ding-dong. Random mission. The Beauty Rankings will be released in three days. The host must obtain the favor of more than four beauties within a month. The system will upgrade and restore the daily lot. The host will be rewarded with the formula of the Sun and Moon Essence Mask.]”
"Gah." Ying Lan was stunned for a moment. He was definitely a gentleman. Even if he could manipulate a beautiful lady at will, he did not take advantage of her when she was in danger. He only gave her a shoulder massage and did not do anything bad.
This lying down system sure knows how to play. Not only does it want me to lie down alone, but it also wants me to lie down with the girl…Is it afraid that I'll be too bored lying down alone?!
However, in order to restore the day lot, Ying Lan had no other choice but to accept this mission that went against her will.
"Lan 'er, since that otherworldly expert is a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, he should have a sense of national honor and disgrace. Now that there are so many countries, even though Great Qin is at the top, it should have a sense of crisis.
Of course, I can't influence his decision. Lan 'er, if you have the chance, help me persuade him. Even if you need to borrow one or two hundred soldiers from the Nether Army, that's fine too!”Ying Zheng said with a smile, looking as if he was ready to negotiate.
Ever since he became the emperor, he had always been a man of his word. He had never felt so aggrieved before. However, the Blood-handed Butcher was very resourceful, so he had to treat him as an honored guest.
Master Zheng is really emotional and reasonable. Let's wait until I settle the girls on the Beauty Rankings.
"Alright, Imperial Father. Send someone to transport these grains.”Ying Lan didn't want to dwell on this topic. He didn't care whether the world was in chaos or whether Great Qin was destroyed.
As a transmigrator, he didn't have much ambition. Perhaps this was the reason why he obtained the Lying Down System…After all, their ideals coincided!
