We admired the waterfall that cascaded down three thousand feet, saw the endless mountains, climbed the mountains together, and saw the mountain tops shrouded in clouds and mist, the warm clouds, the beautiful sunset, the Milky Way and stars in the sky, and the rising sun.

Ancient monuments of civilization, cultural history, turquoise lakes, enchanting forests, and the wonders of nature.

Whenever they arrived at a place, they would write letters to their families to report their safety and share with others some of the things they encountered and some of the fun things they bought.

They bought a lot of things along the way and stored them all in the space.

The two of them were dressed very casually, just like ordinary people, and few people could recognize their identities when they were playing around.

The two of them smiled warmly and brightly, and showed off their smiles freely and unrestrainedly.

Now that they were out, they actually went to see the newly opened shops and cultivated fields in various towns.

Every place is managed very well, and there is no deception or hiding anything from superiors or subordinates. Even the service provided by the waiters inside is very good, and there are a lot of people visiting every day.

Just when the two were having a lot of fun, an imperial decree called them back.

Su Mu looked at the contents of the letter and said in disbelief, "Marquis!"

He looked at Ji Shiyan and then pointed at himself, "Marquis? Me???"

Wasn't she always playing outside with Ji Shiyan? How come she was going to be made a marquis!

"Yes, it's Mumu."

Although I don’t know why, this news must be true.

"Mumu will be the Marquis from now on."

Ji Shiyan shouted with a smile on his face.

Su Mu glanced at him, flipped the letter over and over, and still saw clearly that she was going to be conferred a title of nobility.

"My lady, let's go back and accept the reward."

Ji Shiyan half bent over, looked up and smiled.

"alright."

They have been out for a long time, and it's time to go back.

Time goes back to the capital.

After he went out to play for a while, the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the fields began to ripen one after another.

Because Sumu had made arrangements for all kinds of situations, they didn't have to panic.

When potatoes and sweet potatoes were ripe, Chun arranged for people to start harvesting them, and taught others how to judge whether they could be harvested.

People are already very familiar with sweet potatoes. Potatoes and sweet potatoes are both root plants, and the harvesting methods are similar, so there is nothing to worry about.

The reason why potatoes and sweet potatoes are being promoted vigorously this time is that many people are planting these two crops.

When the harvest season comes, you can see people harvesting potatoes and sweet potatoes everywhere.

Everyone was happy, and they were even happier when they saw that the sweet potatoes they dug out were particularly big.

Officials from various places also sent people to help the people and to compile rough data.

The people were so happy when they first dug up the big sweet potatoes, and then they were so excited when they harvested all the sweet potatoes from the field and saw the yield per mu that they almost fainted.

"Oh my God! I've never seen so much food from one field!"

Not only sweet potatoes, but potatoes have also reached their maturity season and are gradually being dug out of the fields.

During this period, everyone who planted sweet potatoes and potatoes had never been so happy. The corners of their mouths rose to the corners of their eyes, and seeing the potatoes and sweet potatoes dug out from the fields was like seeing glittering gold.

The people are happy, and the officials who come to inspect are even happier. From the moment the seeds are planted in the fields, they have been very concerned and often visit the countryside. They actively solve the problems encountered by the people and are waiting for the moment.

The grain yield per mu of land in the fields is as high as 12 dan, which is nearly kilograms of grain! How many people can this feed?

And this is just the yield per acre. With so many people planting crops in a country and so much land, the total amount of grain produced is simply an astronomical figure.

People couldn't help but shed tears when they looked at the grains, and their hearts were deeply touched.

Those officials wiped the tears from their eyes and began to write memorials to His Majesty. As officials, they had seen even greater sufferings in the people's lives.

When His Majesty heard the news, he was very pleased and so excited that he ate several more bowls of rice.

Thinking of Sumu, I thought of all the things she had been doing, whether it was the reform of agricultural tools, high-yield grain, new seeds, delicious food, beautiful fabrics, the opening of a new academy, etc.

Whether it is food, clothing, housing, transportation or people's spiritual aspects, they have made important contributions.

No matter what, she must be given a big reward.

So with no one objecting and even tacit approval, His Majesty directly conferred the title of marquis on her.

This is the first woman in history to be granted the title of marquis. Her achievements will be recorded in history books and passed down forever.

Su Mu and Ji Shiyan were still rushing home. On the way they met many people with bright smiles, talking about a great harvest or something like that.

After asking around, the two found out that the sweet potatoes and potatoes had already been harvested.

The two of them suddenly realized, "Could it be because of this reason?"

After the two returned home, they rested for a while and then went back to Qingshan Village to find their parents.

"Mom and Dad! I'm back!"

When the people in the room heard the sound, they stood up in panic and walked quickly towards the door.

"Mumu, I'm back."

"Little sister!"

Su An was running the fastest in front, "Little sister, you're back!"

When I opened the door, I saw two people standing outside. They looked in good spirits and at peace, and it didn't seem like they were suffering.

"come on in!"

The tone was so doting and kind.

"We brought you a lot of fun things!"

The two of them entered the room and began to take things out of the space, piles after piles of all kinds of new and interesting things.

Everyone received so much that the baskets could not hold it all.

"Just have fun, why don't you bring anything for us?" He said these words, but the happiness, excitement and doting in his tone were no less.

"I brought one for everyone."

They didn't leave out anybody they knew, and everyone received a copy. Those in the capital should have had their copies delivered to their homes by now.

Several friends in the capital, as well as His Majesty and others, received these things. After asking the people who delivered the items, they knew that they had returned.

"Grandfather, I want to go play with Ji Shiyan and the others." This is Zhou Ziyu.

"Go ahead." Then he thought for a moment and said, "I'll go too later."

And the little girl Jiang Xin, after receiving the things, quietly slipped out of the house to look for someone.

In the palace, His Majesty saw the things and immediately ordered people, "Quick, reward the little girl and pass on the imperial decree."

"Yes!"

A large group of people set off in the direction where Su Mu was.

Many people in the capital knew the news that Su Mu was going to be conferred the title of marquis, and this news was not concealed. It was just that Su Mu had not returned at that time, so the imperial edict could only be delivered after her return. However, in everyone's mind, she was already the first female marquis.

The villagers also wanted to send congratulations to Sumu.

So a group of people gathered at the door of the Su family.

Upon hearing that the imperial edict had arrived, Su Mu and his family went out to welcome it.

The one who came to deliver the imperial edict was the crown prince. The crown prince smiled at everyone, took it and began to read the imperial edict.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

A group of people knelt down around, but Sumu alone refused to kneel, standing out from the crowd.

"The Emperor of Heaven and Earth has issued an edict:

The Lord of Qingshan County is a man of great talent, intelligence, and righteousness, serving the country and the people. I hereby confer the title of Marquis of Qingshan, grant him the title of decree and treasure, and you should respect and accept it. I decree this!"

After the prince finished reading, he handed the imperial edict to Su Mu with a smile.

Su Mu raised her head and slowly looked to her side. Standing beside her was her lover Ji Shiyan. They looked at each other with encouragement and doting in their eyes. Behind her were her doting family with kind eyes. In the distance were villagers and friends who were looking at her with sparkling eyes.

"The minister accepts the order!"

She took the imperial edict with both hands, a smile on her lips, bright and unrestrained, and extremely graceful. Thus, the first female marquis of Huaxu State was born.

A new era of prosperity has begun.
