The fish pond connects the past and present, and the tyrants of the fallen country seek fame every d

In the palace.

Xiao Yanheng looked at the new crop samples presented by the eunuch and sighed:

The emperor’s grace is truly great!

Who could have imagined that the so-called 'seed' given to me that time would be such a treasure.

After receiving the letter from the immortal, he realized the extraordinary value of this gift.

He even felt a little guilty about it.

After all, the Wei Kingdom gave Su Yuan only some ordinary jewelry in return.

The eunuch in charge did not dare to have any extra thoughts in his mind.

In the past, he had marveled at Xiao Yanheng's deep respect and affection for the immortals, but now he had no other thoughts and wholeheartedly regarded Su Yuan as a real immortal.

Since she possesses such power, even if she is a woman, she is a true god!

It was because my vision was too narrow before.

Xiao Yanheng did not notice this subtle change in the eunuch's attitude, or rather, he was very satisfied with this change.

In the study.

The old prime minister reported earnestly, "Your Majesty, approximately 70% of the people have already begun to try growing new crops, but some still express doubts..."

Xiao Yanheng sneered and interrupted the old prime minister.

"What are ordinary people? They are just big families hiding their populations."

Hearing this, the old prime minister fell silent for a moment.

Although he came from a poor family and could actually be considered the descendant of a ruined family, he would naturally not say anything more about such extremely sensitive matters.

Xiao Yanheng gradually felt a trace of impatience rising in his heart. He waved his hand and said in a cold tone, "I don't care what method you use, I must make these noble families change the type of food they eat!"

The old prime minister gave a helpless smile.

Xiao Yanheng knew very well that completing this task was not an easy task. After all, high-quality rice tasted excellent. How could the aristocratic families give up so easily?

However, the current severe food shortage situation leaves him with no choice but to not waste a large amount of land resources that can be used to grow sweet potatoes in order to satisfy the interests of a few people.

How exactly?

This troubled him greatly, but he had already made up his mind. If there was no better way, he would have to rely on the military to enforce the order.

Otherwise, at least one-third of the people in the court will express opposition, which may pose a hidden danger.

Problems came one after another. Outside the imperial study, a concubine in luxurious clothes was making things difficult for the eunuch in charge.

"I personally prepared a nourishing and nourishing soup for Your Majesty. How dare you stop me from entering?"

Hearing the noise outside, the old prime minister tactfully withdrew, leaving Xiao Yanheng alone with a face full of irritation and anxiety.

"Forget it, let her in!"

The beauty who had just been blaming others angrily had now become unusually gentle and docile, and she completed her greetings with sweet words.

She couldn't even wait for Xiao Yanheng to order her to stand up and had already stood up, "Your Majesty, I sincerely wish you good health and a long life!"

After taking a deep breath to calm himself, the emperor asked directly without any hesitation, "Concubine An, why did you suddenly come here?"

Seeing this, the daughter of a high-ranking official, whose father was currently stationed at the southwestern border to protect the country's stability, deliberately acted shy and delicate, and replied, "Isn't it because I miss Your Majesty..."

Faced with such a situation, even though Xiao Yanheng felt dissatisfied, he found it difficult to get angry with her.

"Princess An usually goes to the Imperial Garden for a stroll in her free time. Why didn't you go there today and instead came to chat with me?"

Concubine An smiled sweetly, covering her lips with a piece of silk, and replied, "I just heard that Your Majesty is going to implement a new policy requiring farmers to switch to growing sweet potatoes. You haven't even come to share this good news that will benefit the people with me and boast about it."

This gave Xiao Yanheng a headache.

The headache felt like a thin needle, constantly pricking his temples, making it impossible for him to concentrate.

He responded calmly: "I understand Concubine An's intentions. Go back first."

His tone was calm but carried an irresistible majesty, which made people feel that he was in a bad mood at the moment.

Then he continued to read the memorial in his hand.

His eyes scanned the densely packed text, trying to use this busyness to temporarily forget what had just happened.

The eunuch in charge, who had been silently lowering his head, was almost lying on the ground, but now he had to take action.

His body seemed to be lifted up by an invisible string, and his footsteps were so light that they made almost no sound.

He walked up to Concubine An with a flattering smile on his face.

"Empress An, please!"

Although the tone was respectful, there seemed to be a subtle nervousness and helplessness hidden in that smile.

Concubine An was extremely unhappy, but she still followed the eunuch in charge and left the study obediently.

Her steps were heavy, as if she was carrying a heavy burden with each step. The resentment and anger faintly visible in her eyes did not affect her decision to compromise at this moment.

When Xiao Yanheng heard about this, he not only did not feel happy, but instead an indescribable anger surged in his heart.

This anger was like a sudden storm in summer, causing his heart to surge like a raging sea.

It seems that the powerful and wealthy families nowadays are all like this, and they don’t take the common people into consideration at all!

Thinking of this, a cold disappointment spread from the bottom of his heart and gradually occupied his entire mind.

And this is just to better restrain myself!

These words were like a sharp blade, accurately piercing through his defenses.

In an instant, Xiao Yanheng's heart was filled with murderous intent.

The air seemed to be shrouded in this strong malice, making it difficult to breathe.

But he quickly suppressed his murderous intent.

Reason told him that it was too early to take action now and he had to wait for a better opportunity to succeed in one fell swoop.

It's not the time yet!

This whisper contains the power of infinite determination and waiting.

Xiao Yanheng wrote these things in the letter and added a lot of interesting stories from the capital, hoping to make Su Yuan happy.

Every word was written by him personally, containing the feelings and thoughts he wanted to convey to her.

Sure enough, Su Yuan was amused by the gossip.

A smile slowly blossomed from the corner of her mouth, as bright and dazzling as the sun shining through the clouds and onto the earth.

She couldn't help laughing out loud, and it took her a while to hold back her laughter.

That joy was like a clear spring, rippling through her heart and making her feel more relaxed than ever before.

When Yang Sheng came back from exercise and saw this scene, he was a little confused.

He frowned and stared for a while before slowly relaxing his brows. Although he didn't ask the question out loud, a big question mark remained in his mind.

After reading Xiao Yanheng's letter, Su Yuan was suddenly touched.

It was like a pair of gentle hands quietly caressing the softest part of her heart, bringing her deep resonance.

She quickly turned on the computer and searched for relevant information about Dawei.

The keyboard made a slight sound as the fingers moved quickly, and the data and information jumping in front of the screen together formed the busiest and most hopeful picture at the moment.
