Xiao Baozhu blinked her eyes. What's the matter? I don't want to...

She also didn't mind exchanging identities with her father. If she became his father, he would definitely enjoy the ultimate fatherly love!

Xiao Heng read something from the little girl's eyes, and for a moment he had a headache...

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has arrived~" Xiao Dezi's voice broke the eye contact between father and daughter.

Xiao Heng breathed a sigh of relief and ordered in a deep voice: "Let him in!"

When Prime Minister Liu came in, he saw the emperor and the little princess looking at each other.

He hesitated and saluted the emperor: "Your Majesty!"

Xiao Heng waved his hand and said, "My dear Liu, please stand up. I asked Xiao Dezi to summon you to the palace today because I have something to discuss with you!"

When Prime Minister Liu heard the emperor say this after he stood up, he asked in confusion, "What does the emperor want to discuss with me?"

His biggest headache now is that the Beixiao treasury is empty and those disaster-stricken people are starving!

It can’t be that the emperor has food, right?

He raised his eyes and glanced at the little princess secretly, thinking that it couldn't be that the little princess's fertile fields grew a lot of food!

He has been busy dealing with state affairs these past two days. After court, he was pulled away by other colleagues to discuss state affairs. He has no time to go to the little princess's fertile fields to farm!

Prime Minister Liu was shocked. Could it be that the emperor was growing crops in the fields day and night?

His eyes were full of admiration as he looked at the young emperor. He was truly worthy of being an emperor. Being young meant being capable!

Xiao Heng coughed lightly and said, "Lord Liu, please sit down and talk! A lot of the grain that Zhuzhu brought out that day has been grown now. I want to hand this matter over to you. You need to find a place to store the grain, and send someone to guard it day and night!"

Prime Minister Liu's expression changed instantly. He trembled and said, "Your Majesty, are you serious? In just two or three days, you have grown so much grain?"

Xiao Heng nodded and looked at the little girl in his arms, and saw that her big eyes were extremely clear.

He smiled and said, "This is all thanks to Zhuzhu. Even if I am a hands-off manager, if it weren't for Zhuzhu growing crops day and night, I would probably be worried to death..."

Prime Minister Liu suddenly stood up, bent his legs and said devoutly: "On behalf of the people of the world, I would like to thank the princess for her great kindness! Although this matter is not easy to publicize for the time being, I will definitely tell the people of the world that it was the princess who found these grain seeds, and the people will definitely be grateful to the princess!"

Xiao Baozhu shook her head like a rattle. As a member of the Northern Xiao Kingdom, she would certainly not stand idly by and watch the people suffering from the disaster.

She had seen with her own eyes the devastated land and the emaciated women and children in the last days, and she couldn't bear to see the Beixiao Kingdom become like that.

Just as Prime Minister Liu was kowtowed to Xiao Baozhu, a light bulb suddenly lit up in her mind and she thought of the emptied bookstore.

The bookstore is so big, there should be a way to grow food, right?

Although she can't speak clearly now, she can take out the books and let her father and the ministers study them!

Xiao Baozhu's consciousness probed into the space and finally found a book about sweet potato planting and cultivation.

"Bang!" Prime Minister Liu was knocking his head hard when he suddenly felt something hit him on the back of his head.

He looked up in confusion and saw an extra book on the ground in front of him!

Prime Minister Liu's face changed drastically, his eyes filled with excitement.

He stretched out his hand and tremblingly touched the book with colorful patterns. The texture of the paper was a hundred times better than the paper in their Beixiao country!

The little princess is indeed a goddess. She took out such a good book in one go!

Although Prime Minister Liu did not see the book written by the little princess, there were only three people in the imperial study...

The Emperor's private treasury has been emptied by Minister Qian, so it is impossible for him to produce such good books!

Xiao Heng also saw the book in the prime minister's hand at this time. The green vines painted on the cover made him feel somewhat familiar.

Xiao Heng stood up, holding his little girl in one hand and taking the book from Prime Minister Liu with the other.

He stared at the vine for a moment and suddenly realized that this was the vine that grew the food!

He looked at the little girl in his arms, and suddenly understood what the little girl meant!

Just at this moment, Xiao Baozhu pointed at the book in his hand with her little finger and said in a baby voice: "Da, 囧!"

As she spoke, she used her chubby little hands to pretend she was turning pages of a book.

Xiao Heng didn't care about anything else and immediately started flipping through the book in his hand.

Prime Minister Liu also stood up from the ground. He stretched his neck to look at the book in the emperor's hand.

It turns out that the food that looked like dirt that the little princess took out was called sweet potato?

Prime Minister Liu nodded secretly, what a good name!

For a moment, the hall was extremely quiet, and the king and his ministers' minds were all on this book.

Xiao Heng flipped through two pages and then closed the book and handed it to Prime Minister Liu. He rubbed his brow and felt a headache.

This book is good, but the words on it are really difficult to read!

Prime Minister Liu was overjoyed as if he had found a treasure. He hurriedly and carefully took the book and put it in his arms, fearing that someone would snatch it away.

"Lord Liu, this book says that sweet potatoes are extremely productive, with a yield of several thousand kilograms per mu, and that sweet potatoes are easy to grow, and the vines that grow can also be eaten! After Zhuzhu turns the sweet potatoes into something, you will arrange for a group of people to plant them according to the book, and if it is feasible, teach the planting method to the people!"

Prime Minister Liu quickly agreed, then happily took his leave.

He had to go back and arrange a place to store the sweet potatoes, and also get a few people to study how to grow them!

Of course, Prime Minister Liu would not show the book to others. He would copy down the planting methods in the book!

The emperor has entrusted him with such an important task, he will definitely do it well!

Xiao Baozhu completed her task, lay in Xiao Heng's arms, yawned lazily, and soon her eyelids drooped and she fell asleep.

Seeing this, Xiao Heng did not wake her up, but carried the little girl back to Fengyi Palace.

...

That day, the news that the emperor had proposed a new title for the imperial concubine spread throughout the harem.

Yanxi Palace

Concubine Shu was leaning lazily on the beauty couch, holding a secret letter from the Dongcui Kingdom in her hand.

Bitter Melon on the side was chattering to Concubine Shu: "Your Majesty, why did the Emperor suddenly change the title of the Imperial Concubine? The word 'Jin' has a very good meaning, why did he change it to 'Jin'?"

Concubine Shu picked up a tinder, lit the letter in her hand and threw it into the brazier.

She glanced at Kugua with her beautiful eyes flickering: "Why are you asking me this? Maybe the emperor has gone crazy because of poverty!"

Suddenly she smiled at the bitter melon and continued: "Who knows, tomorrow there may be concubines who will be changed to Concubine Qian, Concubine Yin, or Rich Beauty~"

Kugua looked outside the palace in panic and said, "Your Majesty, be careful with your words. There are ears on the other side of the wall!"

Concubine Shu waved her hands nonchalantly. She looked at the bitter melon and sneered, "Can't I say a few words? Everyone in Beixiao doesn't know that the emperor is so poor that he can barely afford to eat."

"Oh, please stop talking, Your Majesty! There are so many people in this palace and they are all gossipy. What if someone accidentally spreads your words and the Emperor gets mad and punishes you? Even though the Emperor changed the Imperial Concubine's title today, he still punished her!"

At this moment, Kugua's heart was just like her name, scared and bitter.

Concubine Shu showed some surprise on her face: "Is the imperial concubine punished? Kugua Huanglian, hurry up and help me dress up. I want to go to Yaohua Palace to see what's going on..."

Bitter Melon and Coptis Chinensis looked at each other. Their queen really enjoys watching the fun!

Fortunately, the imperial concubine has a good temper and never cares about her queen's weirdness. If she had met a ruthless imperial concubine, I'm afraid her queen would have been slapped and grounded...
