Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng

Beijing!

"Report! Great victory at the border! The brave cavalry general won the battle, and the Tatar soldiers were defeated and suffered heavy casualties. The Tatars demanded a ceasefire!"

The herald rushed into the palace and the court to report the good news to the emperor.

"You won! You are worthy of being my general."

The Emperor Long Yan was delighted.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

Civil and military officials knelt down and paid homage.

"Okay! Everyone, please stand up!"

The emperor was very happy and his face was full of smiles.

The emperor discussed the issue of compensation with his ministers. Some advocated signing a peace treaty, while others advocated that they cede land as compensation.

Finally, for the sake of the people of Daliang, the emperor wanted to sign a peace treaty, form an alliance, and cease fire for fifty years.

The emperor sent Honglu Temple Minister and Eunuch Wang to the border to negotiate with the imperial edict.

The main officials in this peace talks were the General of Cavalry and Princess Xiangyun, assisted by the Minister of Honglu Temple.

Princess Xiangyun is well-informed, knowledgeable, and extremely intelligent. I believe she can handle this peace negotiation well.

The second and third princes were competing to go to the border to negotiate. They had their own plans. Princess Xiangyun was escorting them to the border, and the prince was also at the border. If the two of them could appreciate each other, reach an agreement, and assist the prince, their chances of competing for the throne would be slim. They had to go to the border to please Princess Xiangyun, hoping to bring her under their command and use her for their own purposes. Or they could use male beauty and manly tactics to capture her, take her into the palace, and make her a concubine. In this way, the two of them would be tied together, and they would prosper and suffer together.

Of course the emperor saw through the two princes' little thoughts, and he would certainly not do as they wished.

Princess Xiangyun belongs to Jinqian, no one can take advantage of her. Moreover, Princess Xiangyun is extremely smart, and with her assistance to the prince in the future, Daliang will surely be able to move towards glory.

The Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Agriculture arrived in Taizhou, and the rice planted by Gao Zhijun could be harvested.

"Your humble servant pays respect to His Excellency the Minister!"

Prefect Zhang and officials from the government office welcomed the Minister of Revenue at the city gate.

"Master Zhang, please stand up!"

Minister Liu said.

"Thank you, sir!"

Magistrate Zhang stood up with the officials.

"How is the rice growing? Is it ready for harvest?"

Minister Liu asked Prefect Zhang.

What he is most concerned about now is the rice, which is grown by his granddaughter.

"Your Excellency, we can harvest now."

The ears of grain are full and ripe for harvest.

"Okay, there's no one who's blind enough to sabotage it, right?"

Minister Liu asked with concern.

The rice is what the emperor cares about most. It is the food for the people. If it is destroyed, he doesn't know whether the emperor will be furious.

"No, this is the county lord's fiefdom, no one dares to destroy it. Moreover, the people are all guarding it consciously."

Magistrate Zhang told the truth.

He had been a prefect for so many years and had never seen anything like this. The people actually voluntarily helped the princess to guard the rice and prevent it from being destroyed, and they didn't even ask for any payment.

Minister Liu was happy that his granddaughter was so capable that she could make the people guard the place voluntarily.

The Grand Minister of Agriculture was shocked. The princess was truly popular among the people and he looked at her with new eyes.

"I want to see the rice, so I'll go directly to Huo's Village. Also, we'll live in Huo's Village."

Minister Liu said to Prefect Zhang.

"Yes, Lord Shangshu."

Magistrate Zhang said.

Minister Liu got on the carriage, and Magistrate Zhang led the way, and the carriage drove towards Huojia Village.

When they arrived at the entrance of Huojia Village, Mo Yu saw Prefect Zhang, who opened the gate and let the carriage in.

Minister Liu got off the carriage, and when Mo Yu saw him, he immediately knelt down.

"I greet the Minister!"

"Stand up, no need to be so polite, please stand up quickly."

Minister Liu waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, Lord Shangshu!"

Mo Yu finished speaking and stood up.

Since everyone was acquaintance, Minister Liu brought the Grand Minister of Agriculture and others to live in Gao's mansion.

After Huo Jinzhou found out, he came back from the workshop and greeted Minister Liu.

"Sir Shangshu, you are here. Are you here for the rice?"

Huo Jinzhou asked Minister Liu.

"Yes, the Emperor heard that there was a bumper rice harvest, so he sent me here to buy the rice seeds at a high price."

Minister Liu stated the emperor's will.

"Okay, I'll take you to see it."

After Huo Jinzhou finished speaking, he took Minister Liu and the Minister of Agriculture to see the rice.

When they arrived at the ridge of the field and saw the golden rice, Minister Liu and the Minister of Agriculture were excited. They had never seen such plump rice.

The full grains of millet weighed down the stalks.

Carefully touching the plump grains of rice and smelling the fragrance of rice makes people feel good.

With these rice, people no longer have to worry about going hungry.

"Sir, I have never seen such full grains, and they look so pleasing. The princess is really a wonderful person, she knows everything. You are so lucky to have such a granddaughter."

The Minister of Agriculture held the full ears of grain in his hands and touched them lovingly. He was so cautious as to fear that he would destroy the grain and be a sinner for all eternity.

"Of course. This minister's granddaughter must be extremely smart."

Hearing others praising his granddaughter, Minister Liu was overjoyed and his face was full of smiles. His granddaughter must be extremely smart, and those rich girls in the capital could not compare to her, not even his own granddaughter could compare to her.

Minister Liu and others stayed in Gao's house, and Magistrate Zhang notified the people of Taizhou to go there tomorrow to help the princess harvest rice.

Early in the morning, almost half of the people in Taizhou arrived, and the other half had work to do.

Magistrate Zhang has already paid money to send the refugees away.

Kong Meixue and Luo Minghu also came over, but were rejected by Huo Jinzhou.

Huo Jinzhou knew very well what kind of people the couple were like, and he would never let them take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.

Sure enough, when Huo Jinzhou refused, the two started to quarrel, rolling on the ground and making a scene, ruining Gao Zhijun's reputation and the Huo family's reputation.

At first the people ignored it, but when they heard people scolding their savior, they lost their composure and started to scold the two people collectively, leaving them speechless.

When Prefect Zhang and Minister Liu found out about this, they were furious. Prefect Zhang took the two men back to the government office and beat them with twenty sticks, leaving their skin torn and flesh exposed. He also warned them that if it happened again, they would be driven out of Taizhou and would never be allowed to live there again.

Although the two agreed on the surface, they hated Gao Zhijun in their hearts and blamed her for everything.

Especially Kong Meixue, who wanted to kill Gao Zhijun.

Without any trouble, the people began to harvest rice.

Ten acres were harvested in one day.

The next day, Huo Jinzhou brought dozens of people to thresh the harvested rice.

Minister Liu and Magistrate Zhang weighed one acre of rice.

You won’t know until you weigh it. Once you weigh it, you will be shocked. One acre of rice weighs more than 2,100 kilograms.

Seeing this number, not only the people were shocked, but also Minister Liu and the Minister of Agriculture were even more shocked. If the people of Daliang planted this high-yield rice, they would not only be able to eat their fill, but they would also have surplus food.

It took a month to harvest and dry the rice, and then plant the second batch of rice.

At this time, the sweet potatoes can be almost dug.

Minister Liu and the Minister of Agriculture decided to stay and return to the capital after they finished digging the sweet potatoes.
