"Your Majesty, what kind of farm implement is this? Let me see it."

The ministers were all aroused by the emperor's curiosity, and they wanted to see what kind of magical object made the emperor so pleased.

At the emperor's instruction, Eunuch Zhang ordered the leader of the imperial guards to bring the curved plow into the palace.

"My dears, this is it - the curved plow! Although it looks strange, it is magical. With it, we can cultivate all the wasteland in Daliang."

The emperor pointed at the curved plow in the hall and said excitedly.

Only after using it, you will know its magic.

The ministers all gathered around the curved plow. They all wanted to see what was so special about it that the emperor praised it so highly.

The Minister of Revenue looked at the curved plow and touched it carefully. He really couldn't understand what made it unique.

But his subordinate, the Minister of Agriculture and Sericulture, was so excited that he kept touching it with his hands. This farm tool was truly amazing and he really wanted to try it.

When the craftsman from the Ministry of Industry's Ordnance Bureau saw the curved plow, his eyes lit up. This farm tool was really unique. He was even more excited when Eunuch Zhang handed him the drawings. These parts were really unique and he would definitely complete it carefully.

"My dear ministers, you have all seen it. As for whether it is useful, I will take you to try it now."

After the emperor finished speaking, he walked out of the hall, sat on his professional dragon sedan chair, and was carried out of the palace by sedan bearers.

The ministers had no choice but to follow behind, not riding in sedan chairs, but just walking.

After leaving the palace, on the open space on the left side of the palace, Eunuch Zhang harnessed the curved plow, and the emperor personally demonstrated it to the ministers.

When the ministers saw that the emperor plowed the fields easily and quickly, they were shocked and couldn't believe it.

The Minister of Revenue was the first to ask the emperor for a curved plow to plow the fields. After he tried it, he felt the same as the emperor, thinking that with the curved plow, the people's hard days would be over.

When all the ministers had tried the curved plow, two acres of land had been plowed to the left of the palace.

Returning to the palace, the emperor said, "My dear ministers, you have all tried the curved plow and know its magical properties. This farm tool was presented by Princess Xiangyun. What reward do you think I should give her?"

The emperor told his ministers that the curved plow was presented by Princess Xiangyun, to see if they had any good suggestions.

When His Highness' ministers heard that it was Princess Xiangyun, they were all shocked.

How could a village girl have such a talent? First it was a recipe for curing the plague, and now it was a magical farm tool. How many more surprises did she have waiting for them?

They would never believe that such an extremely intelligent person was really a village girl.

The ministers were whispering in the hall, all wondering what kind of person Princess Xiangyun was.

The second prince and the third prince were also making their own plans in their minds.

When the emperor conferred the title of county lady on her, they all thought it was just a coincidence and did not take it seriously.

Even if the prince delivered the imperial edict personally, they just thought that their father was trying to seduce the people and do it for show.

Now that they have presented the curved plow, they realized that they were wrong. Princess Xiangyun might become a favorite of their father, and getting close to her might help them fight for the throne.

"Your Majesty, I think the Quyuan Plow has benefited the people of Daliang, making Daliang prosperous and strong, and the country peaceful and the people safe. And the Xiangyun County Princess who presented such a divine object, any title is appropriate. I suggest that Your Majesty confer her the title of Princess to show that Your Majesty loves the people like his own children."

The Minister of Revenue came out to ask for permission on behalf of Gao Zhijun.

"I second the proposal!"

At this time, the Grand Minister of Agriculture also stepped forward to ask for an imperial decree to confer the title of Princess on Gao Zhijun's behalf.

"I also second the proposal!"

Craftsmen from the Ministry of Works' Military Equipment Bureau also stepped forward to request an imperial decree to confer the title of Princess on Gao Zhijun's behalf.

"I also second the proposal!"

Many ministers also stood up and spoke.

"Father, Princess Xiangyun is smart and clever, and has a very smart mind. She made this magical tool to benefit the court and the people. I also implore you to confer the title of Princess Xiangyun as a princess to show you that you value farming and the people."

The second prince felt that his chance to show himself had come and he had to stand on the side of Princess Xiangyun.

If she knew that I had contributed to her becoming a princess, she would definitely be grateful to me and would definitely help me ascend the throne.

When the third prince saw that the second prince had taken the lead, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood and died. This second brother was so shameless.

The emperor looked at the second prince with satisfaction, as his son finally spoke some words.

Although he had his own purposes, he never stopped his sons from being competitive as long as they did not hurt each other.

Only ambition can give them motivation.

"Second brother is right, and what you said makes sense too. I will confer the title of Princess Xiangyun as Princess Xianyu, and the imperial edict will be sent to Taizhou after the Chinese New Year."

The emperor said.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

All the ministers said in unison.

"To the Ministry of Industry's Armament Bureau, I'll give you the blueprints for the curved plow. You must make it as soon as possible. I want to promote the curved plow widely so that every village will have two curved plows."

The emperor assigned the task of making the curved plow to the Military Equipment Bureau of the Ministry of Works.

"The minister obeys the order!"

The craftsman from the Military Equipment Bureau took the blueprint of the curved plow from Eunuch Zhang and said respectfully.

After the court session ended, the ministers walked out of the hall. Everyone was talking about Princess Xiangyun, and they all wanted to know what kind of person she was.

The person who could come up with a prescription to cure the plague and make agricultural tools that benefit the country and the people is definitely not a simple person.

The emperor wrote an imperial edict and asked Eunuch Zhang to take it out of the palace and give it to Magistrate Zhang's personal guards, asking them to take the imperial edict back to Taizhou.

The guards took the imperial edict and rushed back to Taizhou without stopping.
