Shen Cuo was not surprised at all to hear Qi Sha say this.
He rubbed his brows. It was not known whether it was the eldest son of the Yongkang Marquis' Mansion who wanted to kill Ye Shian's family, or someone else, but it was not necessarily a good thing that Ye Zhantao became Lu Jingxun.
Ye Shian's family thought that Ye Zhantao was dead, but who would have thought that he would suddenly become the eldest son of the Yongkang Marquis' Mansion.
The eldest son, his wife and daughter of the Yongkang Marquis's mansion are all country people, which is definitely not a good thing in the eyes of the wealthy families who pay attention to matching social status.
So it is very likely that someone in Yongkang Marquis's Mansion wants the Ye family to disappear. Of course, it could also be Lu Jingxun himself. If it is him...
It would be fine if Ye Shian's family had stayed in Wanning Prefecture, but the problem is that now they have come to Anjing. If you say Anjing is big, it's very big, but if you say it's small, it's also ridiculous. It's only a matter of time before they meet.
"Master?"
"Anything else?"
"Someone is checking on Miss Shi'an."
"Who?"
"It seems to be someone from the Fourth Prince's side."
"I am afraid that he will harm Miss Shi'an, so I want to tell you about it."
"Got it. If you don't have anything else, don't come to me."
"Yes, my subordinates know."
After the mission in Changning Village failed, Shen Cuo was the only one who returned alive. He knew that even if he made a perfect statement, he would not have a good ending given the old sect master's character.
In this case, let's just go all out and let him be the sect leader.
Everyone in the Susha Sect has killed countless people, so he didn't feel that he did anything wrong in killing the old sect leader and taking his place.
Similarly, if he were killed one day, he would have no complaints.
In early August, a team transporting grain set off from Wanning Prefecture to Anjing City.
Ye Shian received the news early and estimated that he would arrive today. She thought about taking Nanxing and Shen Cuo to the city gate to pick him up after dinner.
Unexpectedly, the food had been delivered to their door before they finished their breakfast.
Seeing Zhu Li coming, Ying'er happily threw herself into his arms: "Brother."
Zhu Li saw that his sister seemed to have gained weight, and couldn't help but say: "Your face seems to be rounder."
Ying'er, who was just immersed in the joy of seeing her relatives, was so angry when she heard this that she hit someone: "Huh, you are the one who is rounder. My wife said I look better when I am fatter."
Yu Xiuying came out of the house and responded cheerfully: "Ying'er is too thin. She will look better if she gains some weight."
Ying'er gave Zhu Li a look: See, I said it was my madam who said it.
The dozen or so people following behind Zhu Li who came to deliver rice were all from Changning Village. This was their first time in Anjing. When they saw the Ye family coming out, they quickly bowed and greeted them, and then stood there stiffly, not daring to move.
Nanxing walked out of the door with his hands behind his back, and seeing several carriages full of cars at the door, he couldn't help but take a look.
"Mmm, this rice smells so good."
Ye Shian also came out behind her.
"This is a total of 7,500 kilograms of rice. According to your instructions, we only left the seeds in Changning Village. The rest were brought here. There are 500 kilograms of husked rice, and the rest are unhusked."
"Did you send some to Mr. Wei and Mrs. Shen?"
"Yes, all of them have been given."
"Well, that's good. Thank you for your hard work along the way."
Zhu Li didn't feel tired at all. He was full of excitement: "Second Miss, I have never seen such good rice. Not only is it high-yielding, but it is also so fragrant. The rice made from it must be even more delicious."
"Want to eat?"
Zhu Li was stunned, and shook his head and waved his hands in panic: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I, I just..."
Seeing his helpless look, Ye Shian smiled and said, "Don't worry, you will be able to eat this kind of rice every day next year."
Zhu Li grinned from ear to ear: "We won't have to go hungry anymore."
"It's not easy for you to come here, Ying'er, take them to the noodle shop for dinner first."
Ying'er responded and asked the big guy to follow her.
Nan Xing came over with a smile: "Ye Shian, this rice smells so good."
She was afraid that Ye Shian couldn't see through her little thoughts, but Ye Shian just didn't say anything.
"Ye Shian, this rice smells so good."
Nanxing said it again without giving up.
Ye Shian still didn't speak.
Nan Xing stamped her feet in anger: "Humph."
Ye Shian covered his mouth and chuckled: "I'll make it for you at noon."
"Hehehe... I knew you were the best."
Ye Shian called Cheng Kuan and said, "Send some to the Second Prince's residence. Oh, and send some to Shen Teng as well."
When it was delivered to the Shen Mansion, Shen Teng was very happy. This rice was the most delicious rice he had ever tasted.
When they arrived at the Second Prince's residence, the Second Prince returned the rice and told Cheng Kuan to say, "Such good rice should be sent to the palace so that the Emperor and the Queen Mother can taste it."
"Well, since the Second Prince has said so, let's just give it to him."
Ye Shian looked at the thousands of kilograms of rice that had just been moved into the room. Thinking of the last incident with wheat, she was cautious and hid three thousand kilograms in her own space.
All under heaven belongs to the king. If the emperor takes a fancy to your rice and asks for it, can you refuse to give it to him?
On this day, the emperor was having dinner with the empress dowager. As soon as the rice was served, the fragrant rice immediately caught the attention of the empress dowager and the emperor.
"What kind of rice is this? Why is it so fragrant?" The Queen Mother took a bite and couldn't help but take another bite. The rice was surprisingly sweet.
The emperor took a bite and couldn't help nodding repeatedly.
Fu Hai immediately stepped forward and replied: "Replying to the Queen Mother, the Emperor said that this rice was sent by the Ye family. I heard that not much was grown, so I just harvested it from the fields and wanted to send it to honor the Queen Mother and the Emperor."
"Ye family?"
The Queen Mother was stunned. She had never heard of the Ye family.
The emperor then remembered: "Does the Queen Mother still remember the watermelon?"
"You said that the watermelons were also grown by the Ye family?"
The emperor nodded: "Not bad."
"Not only watermelons, but even the blanched lettuce that my mother loves to eat is grown by the Ye family."
"Oh, this Ye family is so powerful, why haven't I heard of it before?"
Fu Hai bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, this Ye family is originally from the countryside, and it was Elder Wei who recommended the Ye family."
Thinking of the high-yield wheat, the emperor couldn't help but smile. If it was planted on a large scale in autumn, the grain output would double next year. By then, he would no longer have to worry about food shortages.
Suddenly the emperor looked up at Fu Hai and asked, "Have you asked about the rice production?"
"Your Majesty, the rice production is still unstable. Miss Ye said that it needs further research."
The emperor nodded. Although he could not say he was disappointed, he still hoped that the granaries of the Dayuan Kingdom under his rule would be full of grain.
"Girl? Fu Hai, you said that the one who planted these is a girl?"
Fu Hai replied: "Yes, it is a girl. Her surname is Ye and her name is Shi'an."
"Oh, after hearing what you said, I would like to meet her."
A girl not only grows watermelons with high sugar content, but also crispy, juicy and delicious flesh.
It can also produce wheat with a yield of 700 kilograms per mu.
There were even many unknown vegetables. Such a woman completely attracted the attention of the Queen Mother.
