Chapter 68

Emperor Yanqing acted very quickly this time. It can be said that he can't wait. In less than half a day, he has now reached Qiu Yunwei's Zhuangzi, and there are two other courtiers following Emperor Yanqing.

Qiu Yunwei was showing them the way, and Emperor Yanqing would come to Zhuangzi to see it in person. Qiu Yunwei didn't expect it, but she had a better impression of Emperor Yanqing.

It's not bad for a monarch to take farming matters into his heart. I once heard Nie Changfeng say that today's sages love names, but even for the sake of fame, that's not bad.

Emperor Yanqing shook his hand and said, "That's it, right?"

Qiu Yunwei had just answered one word. Emperor Yanqing had already surpassed Qiu Yunwei in strides. He walked over first, walked under the fruit tree, and looked up at the fruits hanging on the tree with piercing eyes.

Soon a person next to him picked the fruit from the tree. After breaking the fruit with his bare hands, he used his little finger to get the fruit from the shell and tasted it in his mouth, and then nodded to Emperor Yanqing: " Non-toxic."

Emperor Yanqing laughed.

At this time, Qiu Yunwei didn't even bother to be curious about the capable person next to Emperor Yanqing, so she hurriedly said what she said to Nie Changfeng. She didn't know what would happen after eating it for a long time, so she only tried it with chicken and duck However, the chicken and duck are still alive and kicking, but I don't know if they can eat it.

Qiu Yunwei's words did not diminish Emperor Yanqing's happiness. Emperor Yanqing smiled and said: "Yi Enbo is a cautious person, don't worry, I am not reckless."

The other two courtiers who followed Emperor Yanqing also followed Daoxi at this time. Xun Wenzhuo replied: "Yi Enbo Zhezi says that a tree can bear 150 jin. The minister estimates that this is more than that. This acre of land More than 50 trees can be planted, more than a hundred and eighty trees are still possible, so it is entirely possible to produce a thousand catties on this acre of land."

In fact, it is not impossible, but Qiu Yunwei still has to remind that this kind of tree can't be left alone just by planting it in the ground.

What was said in the memorial, I still have to mention it again at this time.

Emperor Yanqing listened, walked through the dozens of fruit trees and looked at the few people who were waiting, "They are also familiar with this kind of fruit trees? I will send more people to Zhuangzi later. Here, he needs to spend more snacks on Enbo."

Qiu Yunwei responded: "The minister should."

Emperor Yanqing said with satisfaction: "You just said that you still want to improve and cultivate? Can it make it easier to survive?"

"The minister tried hard."

"Okay, work hard. I am waiting for your good news!"

Emperor Yanqing didn't leave right away. Previously, he only took care of this magical fruit that can be used as food. Those that can be used as lamp oil are also good things. Listening to Qiu Yunwei said that this is better to plant, instead of good fields, just ordinary fields.

Emperor Yanqing seemed to have seen another large amount of silver flying into the treasury. His eyes became more kind when he looked at Qiu Yunwei. In recent years, thanks to Qiu Yunwei, the treasury and his private treasury have become a lot richer. Emperor Yanqing sees mid-autumn rhyme. Wei has become the God of Wealth.

Emperor Yanqing spent a long time wandering around in Zhuangzi. He walked through the fields and asked this and that, looking very curious.

"Oh, are you still improving these crops? Is it effective?"

"The effect is still not significant. The increase in rice production is only half of that, the cotton is 10%, and the sweet potato is more effective. Compared with the previous 30%, it is still far from expectations. The minister felt that if he tried again, it could double or triple. of."

Emperor Yanqing wondered: "Sweet potato? What?" He looked at Xun Wenzhuo and Xia Youzhong, but the two courtiers also shook their heads.

"The minister forgot to say that no one grows sweet potatoes here. It's just that the minister likes all kinds of grasses, trees, and all kinds of weird plants. So I will collect more of this. This sweet potato is brought from the south by the firm. The one that comes, they have this one over there."

"This is edible, but it is said that they don't like to grow this. It's not big. The first wave of sweet potatoes grown by the minister will grow out of this size." Qiu Yunwei said, gestured to Emperor Yanqing. , "And if you eat too much, it will cause pantothenic acid in your stomach."

"But this is a good seed, it is not difficult to serve. It can be planted for two seasons a year. Although it is not very comfortable to eat too much as a staple food, it is still possible to use it to satisfy your hunger when you are hungry, and the minister now grows it. Sweet potatoes can grow so big, the production capacity per mu is one or two thousand catties, and it is still reasonable. Waiting for the ministers to work hard, let the sweet potatoes grow up, one can grow this big, and the other can fill it."

At first, this sweet potato was only the size of a duck egg. It was too small to be seen. They doubted whether it was a sweet potato. Now the fruit is as big as a big orange, but it is still not enough. Not to mention that it grows as big as a grapefruit. It must be the size of two goose eggs.

Emperor Yanqing couldn't listen to the babbling behind Qiu Yunwei, and there was only one or two thousand catties left in his mind, and he could plant two seasons a year.

His expression was joyful and shocked, "Is that true?" But Emperor Yanqing had already seen from a while ago that Madam Nie was definitely not an exaggeration, on the contrary, she was modest and conservative.

It's just that sometimes it's not good to be low-key. Emperor Yanqing seems strange, "Why don't you play this kind of good thing earlier?

"Is this wheat tree if it weren't for Nie Aiqing's return, you wouldn't remember playing it?"

Emperor Yanqing gave a name to the fruit tree as he spoke, and even though he said that, the joy on his face became more and more bright.

Qiu Yunwei's eyes moved slightly, her face stunned and confused: "Please forgive the emperor, the minister just likes to plant these, and other ministers don't understand, so I didn't think so much."

Emperor Yanqing laughed loudly: "If you don't understand, it's okay. I will arrange the rest. You like to plant these and plant whatever you want. I can collect more seeds, and I will send them to Yienbo in the future." Don't understand it.

Qiu Yunwei thanked her with joy.

Emperor Yanqing happily looked at the various crops in this kind, and even started to hold the sweet potato vines in his hands. There were several sweet potatoes hanging under the sweet potato vines, which were heavy and heavy in his hands.

This hobby of Yi Enbo is very good, very good.

When Emperor Yanqing left, he did not forget to ask Qiu Yunwei to continue to encourage him to improve the rice, wheat, and sweet potato and wheat trees. Then the people he transferred will come to the village, and they can follow her. You can talk to them about dispatching, whether you want people or things.

The Yanqing emperor's look at Qiu Yunwei now has evolved to look at treasures. Nie Changfeng, who has been silent today and gave the stage to Qiu Yunwei, couldn't help but stand beside Qiu Yunwei. .

Qiu Yunwei was also a little uncomfortable. The emperor who smiled at her kindly always reminded her of Grandma Wolf. She felt relieved after sending people away.

"I'm dealing with the wrong person, right?"

Seeing Qiu Yunwei's relaxed expression, Nie Changfeng smiled: "No problem."

And since then, Qiu Yunwei still has a huge amulet on her body. The emperor is still waiting for her easy-to-life wheat tree, quadrupled sweet potatoes, and higher yields of rice...

Qiu Yunwei also laughed: "It's fine if there is no problem."

A burst of autumn wind carrying the fragrance of flowers blew by, and the two sitting in the courtyard of the Zhuangzhong were in a good mood. Suddenly Nie Changfeng stretched out his hand, but then he froze for a moment and retracted his hand restrainedly.

"There are flowers in your hair." Nie Changfeng pointed his finger at Qiu Yunwei's black hair, and then said: "The wind is blowing, let's go back."

"it is good."

Emperor Yanqing was not a procrastinator at all, and perhaps this matter was too important to him, anyway, the person he was talking about began to go to Zhuangzi the next day.

Qiu Yunwei also started to follow suit, and for a while, Xiao Yuer gave her uncle to take care of her. Now she runs to Zhuangzi every day.

Well, Nie Changfeng took advantage of this opportunity to avoid Qiu Yunwei and educate his nephew with what Nie Jiaerlang should have.

Today Nie Changfeng also made an appointment with the three princes. He didn't wait much in the teahouse, so he waited for someone to come.

Nie Changfeng and the third prince only had a few words of conversation on some occasions, but from the collection of the prince's many actions, he already had a little judgment in his mind, especially these days, Nie Changfeng was about this. The third prince pays more attention and understands better.

The person who walked in was not yet a young man, but Nie Changfeng would not despise him at all because of his age.

He poured a cup of tea for the young man, and toasted it with tea instead of wine. "His Royal Highness III is very grateful and grateful for the help of Nie's family."

The boy held the teacup in his hand and turned around, "Very grateful?"

After a cup of tea, the young man turned his gaze to a wooden box pushed over by Nie Changfeng on the table. He clicked on it with his finger, but did not open it.

"Thanks?"

"I can't talk about thank you, just a little bit of heart. You can be stern with what your three highnesses want."

The boy pushed the wooden box back, "I don't know what kind of thank you gift I want, maybe Marshal Nie can give me satisfaction?"

The two sitting opposite each other, one is the commander of the 200,000 army standing in the blood on the battlefield, the power honed between life and death, a look in the heart makes people frightened.

One is the noble prince who grows wings and gets richer in the ever-changing imperial palaces, and the mind spelled out by the tigers and wolves, at this time, he only looks at people calmly, and is not weak.

Nie Changfeng said: "I don't know what the third highness wants to be satisfied with. I only know that my Nie family is a minister of the emperor, and the Northwest Army is a division of the emperor. Nie only obeys the emperor's orders. Change."

The three princes chuckled: "Where did Marshal Nie want to go? The Nie family has been loyal for generations, how can I not know? Marshal Nie thinks that I want Marshal Nie to do what I want to do? How can Marshal Nie be forced by me?"

"If I don't want to show Marshal Nie's kindness, Marshal Nie won't believe it. Okay, I will accept the thanks." The third prince said and pushed the wooden box closer.

The third prince suddenly took a step back, but Nie Changfeng did not relax, but was even more cautious. He did not believe in the third prince.

And because of the retreat of the three princes, some things are even harder to say at this time, but Nie Changfeng still wants to say: "No matter what the three princes want to do, I don't think I should be involved in my Nie family's family. , His Royal Highness should understand what I mean."

A chill flashed in the boy's eyes: "My friendship with Mrs. Nie won't bother Marshal Nie."

Nie Changfeng also looked at him oppressively: "You will cause her trouble."

"I'm well-measured at this point. I won't let trouble find Mrs. Nie. If I can't do this, I won't see her." The third prince got up and said, "Or you can give me a genuine thank you and ask again. Me."

After the third prince left, Nie Changfeng still curled his eyebrows and looked at the direction the third prince left.

The irritation that the third prince finally showed made him feel weird.

Qiu Yunwei has been busy for a long time, and finally can finish Zhuangzi's affairs. The arrangements have been arranged, and the newcomers have also implemented their respective tasks for them.

Some time ago, there was still a lot of noise on the Zhuangzi. The original tenants have now been moved out, and they have all been paid compensation. The tenants who are willing can go to another her new Zhuangzi.

The new Zhuangzi was rewarded by Emperor Yanqing, which is several times larger than the current one. In fact, it is considered as compensation, because although this one is still in her name, it is about to become Emperor Yanqing's now-in Zhuangzi. Soldiers were even sent to guard, and Emperor Yanqing sent more people than she originally had.

However, this kind of movement is what makes the capital new to talk about-you know? Is that Mrs. Nie going to make a contribution again?

She knows that flower shop, right? What are those wonderful flowers worth a thousand dollars? The things they planted this time shocked the emperor, and the emperor Longyan Joye.

The emperor of Longyan Dayue had more energy to work for Qiu Yunwei, and on a sunny day, he sent someone to Nie's Mansion to convey the decree.

One House Shuanghou!

To be honest, Lord Hou is actually not the most noble in this area of ​​Beijing where there have never been many noble people. But one of the masters in Nie's Mansion was unstoppable, and the other master was the emperor.

This is so red!

In the autumn, the capital became like boiling water again, and there were so many people in the restaurant and teahouse who got together in twos and threes, and they would talk about it when they got together.

Sour, very sour!

Let's not talk about the achievements of Nie Changfeng's family's ancestors and their ancestors, you said, how could the daughter-in-law of Nie's family be so capable? !

If Lao Nie is still alive now, he will have to be crushed by his wife.

Hey? That's right-the second child of the Nie family is dead, so the daughter-in-law of the Nie family is not that jailed, she does not necessarily have to be the daughter-in-law of the Nie family for a lifetime.

Mrs. Qiu is very popular these days. This is all because of her eldest daughter's light. Madam Qiu is proud and happy in her heart, but this pride and happiness must be reduced, because the master is happy but not very happy.

The happy nature is that the family also followed the eldest daughter by being successively knighted, and the tide rose, but he was also awkward. If Qiu Yunwei is not his daughter, he must also be the most powerful member of the upward squirting. What is the title of a woman's family? !

But these days it feels really good to be praised and complimented by others.

When Mrs. Qiu understood the meaning of the other lady, she was very surprised, and then shook her head again and again, impossible, their master refused.

It turned out that this lady wanted to match Qiu Yunwei. Not only this one, but later several other ladies found her, all wanting to match her eldest daughter.

After being persuaded a lot, Mrs. Qiu also mentioned it to Qiu Qizheng. As expected, Qiu Qizheng was reprimanded, and he would never agree!

Seeing that the Qiu family couldn't get through, some people went directly to the Hou Mansion. If the master agreed, then everything is easy to say. Now the Qiu Mansion can't be the master of this female Hou Ye.

When Nie Changfeng returned to the mansion today, he saw the housekeeper who was hesitant to speak.

"Say."

The steward said: "It is Mrs. Han from the official Han Shangshu's family who came to our mansion, now in the wife's courtyard."

"Han Shangshu's wife? Madam has a good relationship with her?"

The housekeeper said to Nie Changfeng: "That's not true. It's just that Mrs. Han's younger sister has a son, that is, Mr. Zhang. Last year, Mrs. Zhang's wife died of illness and has not yet remarried. This, Mrs. Han, probably, maybe, a slave. This is for Young Master Zhang."

Nie Changfeng stopped at the same place and forgot to take a step.

The housekeeper started talking and was anxious: "Hou Ye, what do you say? Not only this Zhang, but also the second son of Chen Shilang's family of the Ministry of Rites, and the eldest son of Ning Yuan's uncle's family."

"The old slave asked. Now there are so many people who want to marry their ladies. Suddenly, so many people popped up. Isn't it aimed at our lady's knighthood? It's not the old slave who talks about it. How can these men Thinking of eating soft rice? Hou Ye, you have to think of a way to not let these wicked people snatch Madam away."
