King Zhao picked up another book and lowered his eyes to read the words on it: "The Complete Book of Planting"
He opened the cover and saw the first few pages were filled with a densely packed table of contents, which were carefully divided into several chapters.
Each section elaborates on the growth of the crop, the amount of environmental water required, and the proportion of medicine water that needs to be prepared.
What will happen at each growth stage of the plant, what to prevent, and the first, second, and third points that need to be done are all clearly written, and ugly illustrations are specially drawn.
King Zhao read on and gradually began to read seriously.
He didn't know much about planting, after all, it was not his job, but it could be seen that the content of this book was very detailed.
Unconsciously, Ji Yunqing moved closer to him: "How is it? My writing is not bad, right?"
King Zhao gently closed the book and looked at her with a complicated expression. It was not just good, it was excellent.
It can be said that with this book, one can teach people how to farm step by step.
The imperial court had people who specialized in compiling books, but generally speaking, most of the people there were talented in writing literature and history.
Scholars rarely do farm work. Even if they know how to do it, few of them are interested in it after becoming officials.
They would not lower themselves to ask the old farmers in the country for advice.
Therefore, many people spend their entire lives farming without knowing what they are doing.
There is a saying that goes "You don't need to learn how to do farm work, just do what others do."
He raised the book in his hand: "Did you write this book yourself?"
"hold head high"
Ji Yunqing's eyes fell on the book in King Zhao's hand, his eyes full of expectation: "This book is the trump card for my Ji family to make a comeback in the future.
As long as I am here, our Ji family will surely flourish, but the moon waxes and wanes, and people have unfilial descendants.
If one day in the future our unworthy descendants squander our family fortune, we can take out this divine book compiled by our ancestors and restore the glory of our Ji family!"
Her tone was powerful and when she mentioned the term "ancestor of the Ji family", she puffed out her chest slightly, full of pride.
It is enough to show that she is very concerned about her position as the ancestor of the Ji family.
King Zhao was silent. The two books she took with her before leaving were both about family. He really didn't know why she was so addicted to this aspect?
Suddenly, he chuckled and looked at Ji Yunqing with a "what are you laughing at" look.
King Zhao sighed: "I didn't expect that you, who are so stupid and not very smart, actually have this ability?"
How one sentence can make people angry.
Ji Yunqing was very angry. She slapped the table hard, but she forgot that force is mutual and she grimaced in pain.
But she still insisted on asking: "Why am I so stupid? Do you have any evidence? You are just talking nonsense."
"Okay, your book..."
He paused for a moment and said, "This divine book that will help the Ji family to rise again is given to—"
As Ji Yunqing's eyes widened and he was about to pounce on it, King Zhao wisely changed his words: "Just lend it to me to have a look, okay?"
Ji Yunqing knew it would be difficult for him to come back, so he could only reluctantly say, "Okay then."
But she didn't borrow it for nothing, and she tentatively brought it up: "Then my matter of being a concubine..." does it still count?
Since she couldn't leave for the time being, she started worrying about promotion and salary increase again.
King Zhao looked at the woman in front of him and was really impressed.
She really is... someone who dares to think and speak!
I was caught running away this morning and haven't even had a meal yet, but I'm still thinking about this.
She even stabbed herself, but when she didn't die, she immediately changed her attitude and even talked and laughed with herself.
No wonder she dared to steal my girl while I was away.
I really don’t know whether she is thick-skinned or has a big heart.
Probably... a bit of both.
Realizing what he was thinking, King Zhao straightened his face and said, "Originally it was possible, now it depends on your performance."
"After all, I don't want to hear the news that the concubine of Prince Zhao's mansion runs away from home one day."
Ji Yunqing blinked and looked at King Zhao innocently: "Isn't this matter in the past? Your Majesty, you won't tell this to anyone, right?"
She even looked innocent...the person who ran away early in the morning was not her at all!
"Your Majesty~"
Seeing that Prince Zhao did not answer, Ji Yunqing grabbed his sleeve and whined and acted like a spoiled child: "Prince, I really want that..."
"Just give it to me~~~"
"it is good"
After he said this, King Zhao finally realized what he had agreed to.
Forget it, just give it to her if she wants it.
Just like what Ji Yunqing said last time, there was only one person who told him that he wanted the position of concubine.
If not her, who else can I give it to?
Ji Yunqing didn't know what King Zhao was thinking, but when she heard King Zhao's agreement, she cheered for joy.
After jumping a few times excitedly, Ji Yunqing finally calmed down.
She secretly glanced at King Zhao, and seeing that he had no reaction, she happily put away her flowered bag with relief.
The flowered cloth bag was bulging and felt heavy in Ji Yunqing's hand.
"Wait a moment"
In Ji Yunqing's confused eyes, he watched King Zhao pick up his precious flowered cloth bag with his bony hands.
She was afraid that this would also be gone forever, so she quickly reached out and asked: "My Lord!"
King Zhao opened the flowered bag without even looking away, then poured the contents directly onto the table.
Countless silver bills were scattered all over the ground, and it was obvious that there were more than two thousand taels of silver.
More than 20,000 taels of silver!
He remembered that last time Ji Yunqing held a piece of paper with silver bills in front of him and cried poor and pitiful, and also stuffed money into his pocket to bribe him to let Ruirui learn medicine.
Before he could even warm up his banknotes, they were asked to return them.
Although he was not short of that little bit of silver, he would not be easily fooled.
His slender fingers tapped on the table: "Tell me, where did you get so many banknotes? Didn't you say that two thousand taels was all?"
"Is it even worth thinking about? Last time I was stingy. Who would spend all their money to send their children to school?"
Ji Yunqing spread his hands and said in a rogue manner, "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if you regret it. I have thought it through now.
Ruirui has your last name, so he is not from my Ji clan. You should be the one to worry about his affairs."
King Zhao was so angry at her: "...Aren't you afraid that I will tell Ruirui about this?"
"Then I told Ruirui that he and I were in the same group, and when he grows up, he will know what it means to just play along."
Every time he said something, the other party would say something back. Finally, King Zhao waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving first. You should reflect on yourself."
Reflect on what?
Ji Yunqing grabbed his hand reflexively, "Don't leave!"
The other party can leave, but he cannot leave in such an unclear manner.
