During that period, she still lived in Mingyi Lane to help her take care of the children.

In order to avoid trouble, Xiaoyaozi said that he got the potato seeds.

This means that if you want to plant potatoes again, Ji Xiaobei has to go get potato seeds.

Xiaobei has some abilities that are different from ordinary people, and Huang Po knows it.

But she never asked.

Without Ji Xiaobei, they would not have their current happy life.

Huang Po smiled and said, "You, the Minister of Agriculture, are all capable people. You will definitely be able to solve the problem! Fu Tongpan is a civil servant. How can he know how to farm?"

Lord Cao shook his head and said, "Lord Fu happened to get those potato seeds because he met a foreign merchant last time. It would be great if he could meet that merchant again!"

Mrs. Huang said, "What if Mr. Fu can't get the potato seeds? Will the higher-ups blame him?"

Huang Po said this while pointing to the sky.

Lord Cao sucked his teeth and said awkwardly: "It's hard to say..."

Mrs. Huang felt a tightness in her heart.

Although I couldn't help much, I was still anxious.

She became even more afraid of officials.

"Well, Lord Cao, if you have nothing to do, please go back. I have to go cook."

Mrs. Huang rolled up her sleeves and said.

Lord Cao swallowed his saliva and said, "Well, can I finish my meal here before leaving? The stir-fried pork with green peppers you made is so delicious..."

Mrs. Huang curled her lips and said, "There is no meat... There is no meat at home..."

Lord Cao licked his face and said, "Scrambled eggs with green peppers are also delicious..."

Mrs. Huang: "There are eggs, but no green peppers..."

Mr. Cao: "Then let's scramble eggs..."

Mrs. Huang: "The egg, the egg is broken..."

Mrs. Huang was angry. How could this old man be so shameless?

Just as I was about to retort him, I turned around and saw Old Man Cao holding a silver ingot.

Mrs. Huang's smile returned instantly, and she snatched the silver: "There are still eggs and green peppers, and there seem to be two pieces of meat left..."

He rushed to the kitchen at a rapid pace.

Lord Cao started sucking his teeth again: Silver is more attractive than me!

……

Fu Jichang on the other side was so anxious that sweat was pouring down his forehead.

The emperor asked him to plant potato vines, and if he couldn't do it, the emperor would turn against him.

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger!

He was in a bad mood, so he rode on Ma Debiao and headed towards Mingyi Lane.

He had made up his mind.

I will go to the palace to see the emperor tomorrow. Potato seeds are hard to come by, so where can I find the merchant now?

The new potatoes have come off the harvest, and Lord Cao has already said that these potatoes should be kept as seed blocks and can be used as soon as spring comes tomorrow.

Don't plant it this year.

Although he thought so, he was afraid that the emperor would ask questions, so he sent someone to find the merchant.

Everyone in the Great Northern Dynasty belongs to the emperor, so it would be difficult for him to find someone.

I’m just afraid that when the order is passed down, local officials will not be able to report it and will arrest people indiscriminately.

He walked into Mingyi Lane depressed and saw that the gate of Ji Xiaobei's yard was closed.

I guess they are taking a lunch break.

He went straight back to his yard, pushed open the door of the study, and saw several large boxes in the room.

How did Heita get the things for Ji Xiaobei into the study?

Just as he was scolding Heita, he heard footsteps in the yard.

Fu Jichang stood at the window and saw Ji Xiaobei walking in with big strides.

Somehow, Fu Jichang felt much more at ease.

As long as it's Ji Xiaobei, it seems that there are no difficulties that cannot be solved.

Fu Jichang hurried to meet him.

"Hey, Xiaoyao, I went to the street and heard that West Mountain was going to plant potatoes. I also heard that the court was paying attention to this matter and the eunuchs from the palace came to your government office..."

Ji Xiaobei pushed the door open and said bluntly.

Fu Jichang said nonchalantly, "Don't listen to rumors. If we can't plant potatoes this year, we can plant them next spring! Potatoes grow well on the west mountain. If we plant them next year, we will definitely have a good harvest."

"Why not plant this year? The harvest is so good. If you plant now, you can harvest when the weather gets cold." Ji Xiaobei asked.

Fu Jichang waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this. This is the decision of the government office, and it is not up to me alone to decide."

Fu Jichang pointed at the boxes on the ground and asked, "I don't like any of them. These are the old lady's treasures at the bottom of the box, and I have to sort them out."

"Don't mess with the old lady's things. Give them back! Besides, there are so many of them. How can I wear them all? Besides, colorful things don't suit me."

Ji Xiaobei said this and sat down on the chair.

"Hey, I say, can't you get any potato seed pieces? Newly grown potatoes can only be used as seed pieces next year..."

Ji Xiaobei suddenly thought of the problem.

"No, I've already said we won't plant this year. It's the government's decision." Fu Jichang didn't want to mention this matter anymore. She couldn't let Ji Xiaobei take any risks no matter what.

"Eunuch Fu came to the government office. Is he asking you to go to the palace to see the emperor? You don't dare to go..." Ji Xiaobei looked into his gloomy eyes and asked tentatively.

Fu Jichang looked at Ji Xiaobei.

Her guess was so correct that he even suspected Ji Xiaobei had eavesdropped on Eunuch Fu's words.

"Xiaobei, I will talk to the emperor about this matter. Just don't worry about it anymore!" Fu Jichang said in a firm tone.

Ji Xiaobei also said firmly: "Okay, I'll just ignore it and watch those refugees freeze to death or starve to death..."

After saying that, she swung her arms and walked out the door.

Fu Jichang: Why are you still angry?

She returned to the next yard, rode the little white horse and headed towards the south city.

When they arrived at the yard where Huang Po lived, they saw a luxurious carriage and a servant who was playing with ants out of boredom.

After she asked, she found out that it was Lord Cao's mount.

She dismounted and was about to enter the door when she heard the sound of horse hooves in the alley.

A large chestnut horse, with a young man sitting steadily on it, his crescent-white clothes fluttering in the wind. The young man has a face as handsome as a jade crown, and he looks sharp and noble.

Ji Xiaobei felt that this person looked familiar, and after taking a closer look, he realized that this was the young man trapped by the black bag.

Ji Xiaobei was stunned for a moment, this little prince was really handsome.

This little fresh meat is so tender!

The young man reined in his horse, looking at Ji Xiaobei's eyes with a sharp gaze, and felt a little embarrassed.

Li Yunjiong thought: How could there be such a bold woman?

It is said that the people in the southern city of Anzhou are tough and it is indeed true.

Li Yunjiong got off the horse, and Ji Xiaobei retracted his gaze and asked in surprise: "Young Master, what's wrong with you? Is your sternum still not healed?"

Li Yunjiong: Asking a man about his chest and bones in public... it's outrageous.

He suppressed his anger, but the rage hidden in his eyes was still clearly seen by Ji Xiaobei.

"Young master, are you angry? Your sister is just teasing you. What are you doing here?" Ji Xiaobei said with a smile.

The anger in Li Yunjiong's eyes grew stronger, and he looked at Ji Xiaobei with a cold gaze.

Ji Xiaobei stopped smiling and said awkwardly, "Then please do as you please. I'll go first."

She lifted her legs and walked into the yard.

"Oh my god, it smells so good!" Ji Xiaobei sniffed.

"Po Huang, Po Huang..." Ji Xiaobei called out, and the yard was quiet.
