There was a sudden burst of coughs in the court, and people saluted Yuan Ruan.

Yuan Ruan was startled, and waved her hand towards the court officials:

[Ah. This is the Minister of Works who gave me the jade nine-linked ring. Wave more. Hey, this seems to be the Minister of Rites who gave me the white jade animal sculpture. I should smile more at him. Ah, and the Marquis of Chengguo who gave me the most things. I give you a heart! Oh, I couldn't get up originally, but I thought about how many things you gave me! I have to come! ]

The court officials were choked with fear: What should we do? Our cleverness may backfire!

Under the emperor's knowing and half-smiling expression, the court officials who were named by Yuan Ruan one by one trembled with fear and tried hard to force a happy smile to Yuan Ruan.

Then they looked quietly at Marquis Chengguo who came up with the idea, and the silence was deafening.

The emperor walked down himself, bent down, held Yuan Ruan in his arms and sat him down, and said, "Well, who else wants to say something?"

Yuanruan's eyes widened, and he said to the system:

[As for melons, first see if there are any melons that can trigger the National Destiny Mission! ]

System: [Okay! Let me take a look.]

The court officials who had just stepped forward enthusiastically were afraid that they would be the first to be targeted by the system, so they all took a half step back at the same time.

At this time, Yu Hongyu, the Minister of Agriculture, stepped forward bravely under the admiring gaze of the court officials and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I have something to report. The potatoes planted a month ago have now yielded a great harvest. There can be about 6 fruits under one vine!"

This number completely exceeded the emperor's psychological expectations. He almost couldn't hold Yuan Ruan tightly and subconsciously clenched his fists.

"What!" The court officials were also shocked and asked, "How could there be so many?"

Although they knew that Yuanruan was magical, they were still shocked when such a huge number really appeared.

The court officials all looked at Yuan Ruan, but quickly looked away.

Among them, an old man with a broken arm was particularly excited. He clasped Yu Hongyu's shoulder with one hand and shouted, "What did you say? There are six on one vine?! The yield per mu must be several thousand kilograms!"

Yu Hongyu grimaced in pain: "Yes, yes, yes! Old General, please stop grabbing. My shoulder is about to crack. The yield per mu is really this much. And after steaming this, you will feel very full."

The old general became more excited as he listened: "Great, great! With this as the staple food, there will be no more famine in Daxia!"

Yuanruan was very surprised: [Tong'er, don't potatoes take several months to ripen? What's going on? ]

System: [System products must be top quality! Mainly because they used the nutrients in the box to speed up the growth period. If they don’t use it, it will still take several months.]

The onlookers were relieved after hearing this. As long as the output does not decrease, it won’t be a big problem if the time is longer.

At this time, the Right Censor-in-Chief who was standing next to him suddenly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have an objection. Yesterday evening, when I was riding my horse to inspect the potato planting situation as usual, I happened to see the Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture digging potatoes. My horse was greedy and secretly ate one. As a result, he vomited and had diarrhea after returning. This potato is poisonous and cannot be eaten."

The court officials were in an uproar: What is poisonous?

But they did not question Yuan Ruan at all. Instead, they looked at the Right Censor-in-Chief in surprise: Are you crazy? Didn't you participate in the Heaven and Earth Ceremony? How dare you question the ability of the young imperial teacher?

Yuanruan yawned, and his inner voice rang out:

[You actually say that potatoes, a delicacy of Greater China, are poisonous. This is not right. Did you eat potatoes that have sprouts or green skin? Or are they not ripe?! As long as you eat normal potatoes, you will never get poisoned.]

System: [What should we do, Ah Ruan? We have no way to defend ourselves! Are we going to abandon something as good as potatoes? ]

The court officials waved their hands and said: Don’t worry, Xiao Guoyun, we all believe in you!

The one-armed old general took a step forward, looked at the Right Censor-in-Chief with murderous intent, and said, "What evidence do you have to prove that the horse vomited and had diarrhea because it ate potatoes? And not something else?"

The Right Censor-in-Chief was punished.

Yu Hongyu followed suit and said, "Potatoes not only have a high yield, but are also easy to cook and can fill you up, but they taste rather bland."

The one-armed old general looked at Yu Hongyu with dissatisfaction and said, "It's enough to fill your stomach, why bother about the taste!"

At this moment, Yuanruan's voice sounded again:

[What?! You said potatoes are not tasty! Potatoes are super delicious. Fry the cut potatoes on an iron plate, sprinkle some chili and other seasonings on them, and the crispy, soft and spicy wolf-tooth potatoes will make you swallow them with your fingers.]

[There is also my favorite potato beef brisket. Just put some salt or other seasonings in the pot and stew them together. Ha, when the gurgling soup starts to dry up, open the lid slightly, and the aroma of the steaming white mist will attract people from ten miles away. There are also crispy roasted potato chips... My God, it's a top-notch delicacy that smells so good just by making it casually. How could you say that potatoes are not delicious! ]

Yuanruan was excited at the thought of these delicacies and couldn't help but recall the color, aroma and taste in detail.

The court officials almost drooled after hearing this, and several of them even had their stomachs growling, obviously because they were hungry.

The Right Censor-in-Chief suddenly spoke up again: "Old General, I can confirm that the horse only ate potatoes, and two hours after eating, it vomited and had diarrhea. I think potatoes should not be promoted."

Courtiers:…

They looked at the Right Censor-in-Chief in surprise: Colleague, how did you become a fourth-rank official in the Censorate when you are so tactless?

At this time, Yuanruan's voice sounded:

[This person is so serious. It's good that Daxia has such a rigorous official. I hope you don't abandon potatoes. Test them more. As long as you don't eat sprouted potatoes or green-skinned potatoes, normal potatoes can be eaten for a long time without any problem.]

The court officials paused when they heard Yuan Ruan's words: Wait, is this person trying to take this opportunity to attract the attention of Xiao Guoyun? To win his favor?

At this moment, the system said: [Is that right? Ah Ruan, I just scanned the scene and there is no prompt for the national destiny mission. But there are a lot of melons, Ah Ruan, do you want to take a look? ]

The faces of the court officials changed slightly.

Yuanruan: [Ha, yes! Well, let’s choose the Right Censor-in-Chief as the first one. Is there one? ]

System: [Ha! Yes! And it's quite unexpected!]

The Right Censor-in-Chief suddenly looked up with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

The court officials all cast gloating glances at the Right Censor-in-Chief: We asked you to be in the limelight, but now you have hit a wall.

Yuanruan: [Tell me! ]

System: [First, the Right Censor-in-Chief...haha, he has a secret hobby. His voice is a natural female voice, and he particularly likes singing. In the summer, he takes a bath every seven days. Every time it is his turn to rest, the Right Censor-in-Chief will carefully change into women's clothes, board the flower boat near Kyoto, and let out his low false voice, pretending to be a woman singing in a brothel. Because the songs are so good, he even got a stage name.]

The courtiers' pupils trembled: !!!

What the hell?

Born with a clip voice? Put on women's clothes?

She even pretended to be a singing girl in a brothel?! She even had a stage name?

They all looked at the Right Censor-in-Chief. Damn, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person! Why are you trying to show off? You're so dead.

Yuan Ruan showed a shocked look: [Hiss, I'm just a little curious, has this person ever met any colleagues while singing for money? ]

System: [Of course! Ha, this is what I mean by funny. It also unfolds a story!]

Yuanruan: [What! Who is it?]

Courtiers: !!!

They were suddenly terrified and began to recall collectively: No, it can’t be me!
