Chapter 22 The Little Princess Has a Martial Arts Dream 7

The next morning, Duke Shen accused the crown prince of being involved in buying and selling official positions in the court. The emperor was furious and ordered the Dali Temple to investigate the case thoroughly. No one was allowed to enter or leave the crown prince's mansion without being summoned.

Because of the account books as evidence, the Dali Temple quickly arrested all the people involved. However, this case of buying and selling official positions involved so many people that if all of them were to be dealt with, the government would be paralyzed.

Therefore, the emperor only dealt with the masterminds, namely the Prince's Grand Tutor and the Prime Minister, and sentenced them to exile. The Prince was demoted to Prince An and was imprisoned in Prince An's Mansion for life.

Other officials involved in the case of buying and selling official positions also had their property confiscated. Although their official positions were not abolished, they no longer had the possibility of promotion.

I believe that after the next imperial examination, the emperor will replace them one by one.

It is worth mentioning that because the court was in urgent need of talents, Chu Yuan’s two elder brothers were also promoted. Chu Yu was appointed as the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and Chu Yu was appointed as the Deputy Cavalry Commander.

The first thing Chu Yu did after taking office was to urge Chu Ting and Shi Yunshu to go to the Shangshu Mansion to propose marriage.

Seeing that both of his brothers had found their ideal persons, Chu Yuan finally let go of the heavy burden in his heart and returned to his daily life of sword practice.

But recently Shi Yunshu hired a teacher to teach her, so she started practicing sword in the morning and reading in the afternoon.

Chu Ting also found two new sword techniques for her, one is the "Silver Moon Sword Technique" suitable for women to learn, and the other is the "Hidden Sword" which can conceal the body.

......

In the court, the ministers argued all day long about which prince to make the new crown prince. Chu Yuan also tried to test Chu Ting's thoughts and learned that Chu Ting was more optimistic about the third prince Li Mingjun.

So she found an excuse to take out two crops, potatoes and sweet potatoes, and planted them on the farm that Chu Ting gave her as a birthday gift.

When it was time for harvest, she specially invited Chu Ting and Shi Yunshu to go for a visit and told them about the existence of potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Chu Ting was indeed attracted by these two crops.

Chu Yuan explained: "This was sold by a strange-looking guy I met when I was out playing. I thought it was interesting so I bought it and tried to grow it."

Chu Yuan only planted a small piece of land, but she harvested more than 100 kilograms. She told the servants to do it according to her instructions and brought it to them to taste.

Chu Ting asked a lot of questions about these two crops, and Chu Yuan's answers made his heart burn. As a general, he knew too well what this meant to Shengding Kingdom.

The servants brought the dishes to the table, tested for poison with silver needles, and fed some of them to the chickens and ducks on the farm. Seeing that they were still alive and kicking, Chu Ting ate them with peace of mind.

He didn't expect that these two ugly-looking foods tasted so good.

Potatoes have a very soft texture, and sweet potatoes even have a sweet taste. You know, Chu Yuan just said that these two foods can be preserved for a long time in a cold environment. Isn’t this the best food for the Northern Army?

Chu Ting couldn't sit still any longer, so he took more than 100 kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes grown by Chu Yuan, as well as several farmers in charge of planting on the farm, and hurried back home.

As for what happens next, it is not Chu Yuan’s concern. I believe that as the great general guarding the country, Chu Ting will definitely find the most beneficial way for the people to handle this matter.

Chu Yuan and Shi Yunshu planned to stay at the farm for a few days before going back. Chu Yuan used the cooking skills he learned in the previous world to make a home-cooked meal for Shi Yunshu. Although many modern seasonings could not be found here, the food he made was very different from that cooked by the chefs here.

After eating the food, Shi Yunshu praised the dish highly and said that she wanted to ask her family’s chef to learn from Chu Yuan. She even thought of opening a restaurant like this in Kyoto.

Chu Yuan had thought about opening a restaurant when she first arrived, but she was already very tired from practicing sword every day and did not have enough energy to run a restaurant.

Moreover, as a lady from a general's mansion, she really wasn't short of money.

Now that her mother has this idea, she is very supportive. After all, it is better to keep the wealth within the family.

So Shi Yunshu could no longer sit still, and hurried back to the general's mansion to start looking for a location for the restaurant.

There was no point for Chu Yuan to stay here alone, so he went home after staying for two days.

She used these two days to write a recipe book, and gave it to Shi Yunshu after returning home. Shi Yunshu bought a restaurant with poor business in just two days and was able to open it after renovating it.

Chu Yuan admired her ability to take action very much, and she was worthy of being a general's wife.

......

A year later, the third prince Li Mingjun successfully ascended the throne of crown prince for his discovery of two high-yield crops.

At the beginning, Chu Ting gave potatoes and sweet potatoes to Li Mingjun. In exchange, Li Mingjun promised him that he would never let Chu Yuan enter the palace.

Since then, Chu Yuan finally put her mind at ease, and she began to devote herself to sword practice again. After five years of practice, Chu Yuan's "Pingyang Sword Technique" has made some progress, and completing the system task is just around the corner.

Chu Ting had lamented countless times that Chu Yuan's martial arts talent was far superior to his.

When she was 14 years old, the emperor again brought up the matter of making Chu Yuan the Crown Princess in front of Li Mingjun, but Li Mingjun had already promised Chu Ting that he would not let Chu Yuan enter the palace, so she had to make an excuse that she already had someone in her heart.

But the emperor did not let him go and asked him which girl he liked.

Li Mingjun doesn't have a sweetheart, but if he can't tell the truth now, he will completely offend the general who guards the country.

So he had to say that he liked Shen Qingyu, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue. The emperor agreed when he heard it. The legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue had a high status and was in charge of the national finances, which would be very helpful to his son.

Chu Ting can only make other plans with the military power in his hands. If it doesn't work, he can just assign Chu Yuan to Xiao Liu. He and the prince are brothers from the same mother, so they are in the same boat.

Chu Yuan knew that as long as his father had the military power in his hands, the emperor would never give up plotting his marriage. Even though he had escaped it this time, there would be a next time.

Now that she is 14 years old, she can put the matter of faking her death on the agenda. This incident gave her a reason to bring it up.

She gradually revealed her longing for the martial arts world in front of Chu Ting and Shi Yunshu. Although they knew what she was thinking, they were reluctant to let her go.

It was not until the emperor brought up the old matter again that Chu Ting was forced to formally consider this matter.

His daughter's talent in martial arts was obvious to all. It would be a waste of talent if she were trapped in this small place for her whole life.

And now Chu Yuan has learned a lot, so at least he has no problem protecting himself.

The reason they kept their daughter in the mansion was simply because they couldn't bear to let her go.

Thinking of this, Chu Ting made a decision. Since his daughter yearned for a wider world, he might as well send her there.

But if he did this, his wife would definitely blame him, and he didn't know how long it would take before he could enter the room.
