"What are you all kneeling for, my lords? Get up and try the dishes prepared just for you!"

"If you have any dietary restrictions, please tell the palace maid next to you!"

The envoys, supported by the guards beside them, sat back in their previous seats.

The palace maids and guards cleaned up the mess as quickly as possible and then set out new dishes and meals.

After everyone was seated, Yu Ruyue picked up the wine glass beside her and said gently, "Everyone has come from far away and must have endured the tiring journey. Let us drink this cup to the fullest and welcome the envoys from the five nations. I hope that the subsequent alliance negotiations will be successfully concluded."

The envoys quickly picked up the wine glasses beside them, looked at the gentle and harmless woman in the glasses, swallowed their anger, endured the pain on their faces and bodies, put on a fake smile, and drank the wine in the glasses. However, as soon as the wine entered their mouths, it hit the wound in their mouths, which stimulated them to tears.

Yu Ruyue took a sip and nodded with satisfaction. "I didn't expect everyone to be so happy. It seems like they agree with what I said so much that they're so happy that they're crying."

When the envoys heard this, they were filled with hatred. Who would be happy? This is obviously painful!!!

This woman is so cruel and vicious, she can't stand seeing them doing well at all.

At this moment, they were thinking that as long as they returned to their country, they would report everything that happened today to the king with exaggeration and make this crazy woman pay the price!

At the palace banquet, people came and went, toasting each other, but there was no tense situation like before.

As dishes were served one after another, the envoys' attention was all attracted by the dishes they had never seen on the table before.

They stared blankly at the yellow stick-shaped object in front of them, some not knowing how to start, and even doubting whether this thing was edible.

I always feel that the vicious woman put this thing here on purpose to disgust and embarrass them...

It was not until the maid next to them, wearing special gloves and knives, picked up the yellow stuff one by one and put it in the bowl again, and then put it in front of them, that everyone was sure that this thing was actually edible.

They picked up the spoon and put it into their mouths. The sticky yet sweet taste filled their mouths. It was very strange, but also very delicious.

Just as they were about to ask what it was, they were attracted by the light red thing next to it. This thing looked unremarkable, but it had a faint fragrance that made people's appetites wrench!

They lowered their heads, but their eyes were like thieves, secretly looking up at Yu Ruyue who was sitting above them, wanting to see how she ate this thing.

Just as they were looking at it cautiously, the palace maid next to them came over again, wearing special gloves, and broke the red food in the middle, revealing the steaming yellow and orange flesh inside, and the aroma also hit them in the face!

The palace maid took a delicate little spoon and scooped the filling in the middle into a small bowl!

When the palace maids left, these people couldn't wait to pick up their bowls and taste the food carefully.

As a result, the envoys' eyes lit up after taking the first bite. The soft and delicate texture and the sweet taste made them unable to resist taking one bite after another...

There were also many strange foods on the table that they had never seen before.

They were a little embarrassed to ask everyone one by one, so they could only quietly observe how others ate.

At this moment, they were like the village kids who had never seen the world. They were very reserved, afraid of showing their weakness and making a fool of themselves.

Because of this, these people's attention was diverted from the injuries on their bodies and the anger just now, and they focused on the delicious food in front of them!

Finally, the Japanese envoy, who still believed that he had not offended Yu Ruyue, asked in the very difficult Qian dialect: "Empress! What is this yellow thing called? We have never seen it before. It is very delicious. I wonder if you can send some seeds of this thing to our country so that our monarch can taste it!"

"And that red thing next to it is also very delicious. It would be great if you could give me some of the seeds."

Yu Ruyue felt so angry when she heard those angry words that her teeth were itching.

She really wanted to curse, "Eat, eat, eat, just eat shit!"

It’s shit mixed with nuclear radiation!!!

But now wasn't the time to continue the fight, so he could only explain with a smile, "This thing is called corn, and my parents went through untold hardships to get it back from across the ocean!"

"The other sweet potato was also brought back from that place."

"So we have very few seeds. We've run out of sweet potatoes, but we can give you some corn seeds!"

"Don't be fooled by its unassuming appearance. Corn has a very high yield. Not only can it be cooked and eaten, but it can also be dried and ground into powder for cornmeal. The corn cobs and stalks can also be ground up and fed to cattle and sheep as rations!"

“After drying, it can be used for heating!”

When the envoys present heard this, they all gasped. Even the officials of Daqian Kingdom were shocked by this statement.

They had just tasted this corn not long ago and thought it was novel and delicious, but they didn't know that not only could it be eaten by humans, but even the stalks could be used as food for livestock, and after being dried, they could be used for warmth.

If this is true, then most of the people’s life problems can be solved!

The Liang envoy couldn't help but ask, "I wonder how much of this can be produced from one acre of land?"

Yu Ruyue smiled faintly and said, “Not much, just a mere one thousand pounds!”

hiss~

Just a little! ?

Is this woman crazy?!

Does she know what 1000 kilograms means?

If this thing could really produce 1000 kilograms per mu, wouldn't people all over the world no longer have to go hungry?!

Yu Ruyue looked at the skeptical expressions of everyone present and said with a smile, "I have already tried planting it myself, so there is no need to doubt it."

The envoys present began to exchange glances again.

If the yield of this thing can really reach one thousand kilograms per mu, then the national strength of Daqian Kingdom is now even stronger than they imagined!

No wonder this woman was so confident. It turned out she not only had those strange weapons, but also enough food to feed the entire nation...

Their eyes moved around, and finally all their gazes were fixed on the uneaten corn next to them!

If they could also obtain corn seeds, wouldn't their country's national strength take a huge leap forward?!

I'm afraid the king will value them even more.

I had only heard before that the rice in Daqian Kingdom was well grown and had a high yield, but I didn’t expect that there was something even more amazing.
