I couldn't help it, so I secretly looked back and saw that everyone was looking down and no one was looking at me.

Just as I turned around in confusion, the tingling sensation came again!

But he secretly looked back several times, but still couldn't catch anyone.

He didn't see it, but the emperor sitting on the high platform could see everything that happened below.

The emperor was very curious about what his younger brother had done to make so many ministers look at him with skeptical eyes.

Seeing that he looked like he had fleas on his body and was twisting and turning, I couldn't help but find it funny.

The emperor suppressed the smile on his face and said in a deep voice:

"Prince Yongchang, I see you're eager to make a move, but do you have something to report?"

Huo Lingxing had never expected that his subtle actions would be discovered by the Emperor. When his name was called, he was stunned for a moment, then he stepped out of the line and bowed, saying:

"Your Majesty is wise and wise, and I do have something to report!"

The emperor pretended to be clueless and raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Oh? What is it that has made you travel thousands of miles to come back and report this in person?"

He emphasized the words "the emperor will come back in person".

Many ministers thought that he came back to have the illegitimate child listed in the royal imperial edict, and were waiting to laugh at him.

Huo Lingxing secretly curled his lips, feeling speechless. Even while acting, he still didn't forget to play a trick on him...

"Your Majesty, within the jurisdiction of this humble servant, a young girl from a farming family accidentally discovered two crops in the mountains that could be described as divine."

The emperor was surprised when he heard this and couldn't help asking:

"My dear, what does this divine seed mean?"

Hearing that the emperor had finally asked the point, Huo Lingxing couldn't help but straighten his back and speak even louder.

"Your Majesty, the reason we dare to call them divine crops is because these two crops can yield up to three to four thousand kilograms per mu!"

boom!

The ministers were shocked when they heard this!

But before they could raise their voices to question, Huo Lingxing dropped another bombshell.

“Not only that, if you live in southern regions with shorter winters, you can even sow twice a year!”

"This is sheer nonsense! If such a crop really existed, how could it be so unheard of and unseen throughout history? Your Majesty, please understand!"

The Minister of Agriculture is completely unable to stand his ground. This is sheer nonsense!

Could it be that Prince Yongchang deliberately invented this divine seed just to include his illegitimate son in the royal imperial genealogy?

In the end, they couldn't grow any crops, and then they put the blame on the Ministry of Agriculture. They are so vicious!

"I second this motion, and I hope Your Majesty will understand it!"

"I hope your majesty will understand!"

......

The Grand Minister of Agriculture became more and more angry as he thought about it. He turned around and gave a look without saying a word. Immediately, several other officials stood up and agreed with him.

Huo Lingxing narrowed his eyes, his face unfathomable, and he was in no hurry to explain.

The emperor was even more delighted to watch the show.

"Hey, you guys are such a jerk! Prince Yongchang has finally come back, you should let him finish his story, right?"

The right prime minister, who had a plump figure and a kind face, stepped forward with a smile to smooth things over.

It’s a pity that Huo Lingxing didn’t appreciate it at all and even gave him a cold look.

The ministers who saw this scene were stunned.

What's going on with Prince Yongchang?

Such indecent behavior would actually be performed in the Golden Palace.

The fact that you have an illegitimate child has been exposed. Are you planning to just throw in the towel and stop pretending?

After a while of arguing, the ministers gradually quieted down when they saw that both the parties involved and the emperor had gloomy faces and were silent.

"Prince Yongchang, you yourself say whether this is true or false, how can you prove it?"

This time, there was obvious displeasure in the emperor's voice.

Huo Lingxing still bowed calmly.

"Your Majesty, what I said is true. The divine seed was discovered by farmers last year. After two plantings and harvests, it has been confirmed that the yield per mu is no less than 3,000 to 4,000 kilograms!"

He paused, curled the corners of his lips, glanced disdainfully at those who had just spoken, and continued:

"Now, every household in that village is growing these two crops. The little girl who first discovered the divine seeds heard that Your Majesty's birthday was approaching, so she brought 20,000 kilograms of divine seeds to the capital to present to Your Majesty in celebration of his birthday."

Then Huo Lingxing clapped his hands again. As soon as the applause died down, a group of eunuchs holding trays in their hands filed into the hall.

The entire Golden Throne Hall was instantly enveloped by a rich and sweet smell.

"Take a look and try it. This is the food made by that divine seed. But don't accuse me of deceiving you anymore."

The ministers stared in disbelief at the tray full of steamed, boiled, fried and grilled food they had never seen before. Some of them even swallowed their saliva secretly.

At this time, Huo Lingxing's cold voice came again.

"If you still don't believe it, you can go to that village and check to see if every household has tens of thousands of kilograms of the divine seeds. Or you can wait another two months and see the harvest with your own eyes."

This time, all the ministers were silent, with indescribable complex expressions on their faces.

"Everyone, please try it."

The emperor has spoken.

But no matter how delicious the food was, no one present was willing to risk their lives to eat something they had never seen before.

Oh, no, there is one.

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the Minister of Agriculture excitedly grabbed a piece of fried potato and stuffed it into his mouth.

After chewing twice, he knelt down.

"God bless Daxia, God bless our emperor!"

The Grand Minister of Agriculture shouted with tears in his eyes, raised his hands above his head, and banged his head heavily on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the ministers looked at each other and quickly stretched out their hands. Some of them didn't even have time to chew the food before they knelt down with a thud.

"God bless Daxia, God bless our emperor!"

"God bless Daxia, God bless our emperor!"

"God bless Daxia, God bless our emperor!"

The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"My dear ministers, please stand up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The first thing the Grand Minister of Agriculture did after he stood up was to bow to Huo Lingxing with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, I was disrespectful earlier. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Huo Lingxing knew that he meant no harm and waved his hand indifferently.

"It doesn't matter."

After all, I, who don't know how to farm, didn't believe it when I heard it for the first time, let alone he is a professional farmer.

Just when those sarcastic ministers were thinking about whether they should step forward to apologize and flatter the emperor, they were interrupted by the emperor.

"My dear, has the young lady you mentioned coming to the capital to offer the divine seed arrived today?"

"Your Majesty, the people are already waiting outside the palace."

Huo Lingxing, who had just felt relaxed for a while, became nervous again.

After all, the living ancestor is coming, so please don’t cause any trouble!

The emperor moved his fingers, and Eunuch Sun, who was holding a whisk beside him, immediately understood what he meant.

"Xuan Sangjia Village, Sang Shishi and others come to see you~"

Just as Eunuch Sun was about to finish his words, an equally shrill voice rang out from outside the Golden Palace:

"Xuan Sangjia Village, Sang Shishi and others come to see you~"

Except for the Huo family father and son who were nervous, everyone else in the hall was very curious about who the little girl who discovered the divine seed was.

But... half a while passed, but no one entered the hall.

The young eunuch outside the palace was also confused. Where is the person?
