Dominate the ancient academy

After Shu Xiaoxiao left, Huo Feng went straight to find the prince with a bowl of leek dumplings. How could he not share such delicious food with the prince?

"Your Highness, please try this. This is what Master Ye taught me to make just now. It tastes really good."

Yun Qinghan looked at the food that looked a bit rough, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite: it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it made his mouth water. It was fragrant and crispy, and before he knew it, he had finished the whole leek box.

"Yes, did Ye Xiao teach you how to make it? Or is this a new crop she found?"

He really didn't recognize these green vegetables, but since Huo Feng could bring these foods to him, there must be no problem.

Huo Feng: Oops, I only remembered that it tasted good, but forgot that it contained aphrodisiac grass.

Yun Qinghan: "Hmm? Is there something wrong?"

Huo Feng: "Mr. Ye taught me. The green vegetables here... were found by Mr. Ye today. I... I also recognize them."

Yun Qinghan laughed: "Finally, there is something she made that we recognize. What is this?"

Huo Feng: "...It is...it is...aphrodisiac grass."

When Yun Qinghan, who was drinking tea to relieve his greasy feeling, heard what Huo Feng said, he spat out a mouthful of water.

Yun Qinghan, who was always calm, raised his voice a little: "What did you say was in there?"

Huo Feng said quickly, "Yes... it is aphrodisiac grass, but Master Ye said it is called leek, a kind of vegetable. Master Ye ate three in a row and gave two to each of her classmates. I also ate several and found them delicious, so I brought them... brought them to the prince to try."

Yun Qinghan was silent for a moment: "It tastes really good, you can eat the rest."

Huo Feng: “Yes.”

It’s really delicious.

Glancing at Huo Feng's aggrieved look, Yun Qinghan felt it was unbearable to watch. Ever since he started carrying manure, this guy had kind of let himself go.

"How's the bet between Ye Xiao and the students going?"

"Replying to the prince, many students know that Master Ye said that the yield per mu is 1,000 kilograms. The liberal arts students want to see Ye Xiao's excitement, and the martial arts students hope that Ye Xiao can surpass the liberal arts students, so they should all go."

Thinking of those students, Huo Feng sighed, this is quite a big scene, he hopes that Master Ye can win the bet and achieve a yield of 1,000 kilograms per mu. If this can be achieved, not to mention that he will become the head of the outer dormitory, Master Ye will have the final say in the academy in the future, not to mention the prince, there will be many people willing to be Master Ye's backer.

"Just wait for the right time, and we'll go join in the fun then."

Let’s see how Ye Xiao plans to make this bet and how confident he is that he can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu.

Huo Feng said excitedly: "Yes."

Shu Xiaoxiao arrived at the dormitory just in time for dinner. She was now full, so she let Yuan Zhen eat the dinner that he had prepared.

He took out a box of chives wrapped in oil paper and said, "I promised to bring you something delicious. Try it."

The three people who were a little worried about the bet later, saw the two golden leek dumplings brought by Brother/Sister Ye, swallowed their saliva, and thought, forget it, food is the most important thing for people, so let's eat first.

Su Shiche: "Brother Ye, what's inside? It tastes really good."

Qian Jinbao and Shu Tingfei also agreed that the dish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it was really delicious and made your mouth water.

"This is a new vegetable I discovered called... leek. I don't have enough time now. I'll make leek and egg dumplings when I have time. They'll be even more delicious."

"Then I'll have to trouble Brother Ye from now on. I really can't eat the food in the cafeteria."

The canteen of the academy serves meals from a big pot. The food there is pretty good for poor students, but it is really a bit too much for him to eat. He was about to ask Fang Rong to secretly go down the mountain to buy some.

"The food in the canteen is a bit ordinary. Today I know where the special kitchen is. This chive dumpling is made there. I will bring it to you when I have the chance in the future."

The canteens nowadays don’t have as many options as the modern ones. People can get tired of all the modern food, let alone the ones here.

After the three of them finished their meal, the four of them slowly headed towards the back mountain.

The salted duck egg-like sunset hangs in the sky. Against the backdrop of the magnificent sunset, the crimson sunset is even more dazzling.

Back Mountain Field

"This kid is pretty quick. Do you know what this is?" Li Zhiyi asked, pointing at the young sweet potato sprouts.

This was the academy's field, and no one knew if there were any guards nearby, so no one would deliberately destroy the crops. When they heard Li Zhiyi's voice, they just walked to the end of the field and took a closer look.

"This looks a lot like grass?" a student asked doubtfully.

"Can this grass absorb food? Does anyone know what it is?" Wang Caitong asked loudly.

"I've never seen it before. It doesn't look like food."

"I heard from Ye Xiao that she found a grain that yielded 1,000 kilograms per mu. Could it be this grass?"

"Not really. Could it be that I was deceived?"

People in the fields were talking about it, but few believed that this grass-like plant could produce 1,000 kilograms per mu.

The only ones who were a little out of place were the three teenagers standing nearby. They had good temperament and good looks. They did not discuss with the students around them, but squatted on the ground and observed carefully.

The three people were Shen Guanqing, the son of the Minister of Revenue, Fang Weihe, the son of Marquis Xuanping, and Cao Yixing, the son of Duke Cao. The three were also talking in low voices.

"Guanqing, your father is the Minister of Revenue. Have you ever heard your uncle talk about the yield of 1,000 kilograms per mu?" Zhou Yuze was a little curious.

Shen Guanqing affirmed, "Absolutely not. Before I came to the academy, my father was still worried about the court's finances. If there was a yield of 1,000 catties per mu, he would definitely tell me."

Cao Yixing: "So is Ye Xiao's claim of a yield of 1,000 catties per mu just nonsense, or can this green seedling really produce a yield of 1,000 catties per mu?"

Is there really such a thing as a magical thing that can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu?

"It all depends on Ye Xiao's performance. If so many people talk nonsense, she will be in trouble. It will be even more difficult for her to move forward in the officialdom. If she really discovers a crop that can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu, I believe she can soar to the sky without waiting for the imperial examination."

When Shu Xiaoxiao reached the back mountain, she saw that the sweet potato field was already surrounded by people.

"There's manure in here, aren't you afraid of the stink? Why are you getting so close?"

When the students heard Shu Xiaoxiao's voice, they seemed to come to their senses and quickly retreated from the field and stood at the edge.

Seeing that all the students from the liberal arts and military departments had arrived, Shu Xiaoxiao found a higher place to stand, pointed at the fields and said.

"The sea of ​​learning is long and makes people dizzy. What about classmates? Let's have a bet to cheer ourselves up!"

"How do you want to bet?" Shen Guanqing asked.

Seeing that the others were quiet after Shen Guanqing was born, Shu Xiaoxiaozi thought that this seemed to be the leader.

"Now it is April, and my sweet potatoes will be harvested in October. Let's bet on whether the yield of sweet potatoes can reach 1,000 kilograms per mu. If I win, I will be the head of the dormitory outside. I will be the head of the dormitory outside." Shu Xiaoxiao emphasized.
