Datang: I was tricked by the system

"Yan Ran, where did you get this potato?"

"That's right, why didn't you say such a good thing earlier, if my mother knew about it earlier, she wouldn't have done such a stupid thing."

"It's a pity, can you plant this again?"

"Otherwise, you can get some seeds again? We promise to take care of it carefully and never let it make any mistakes."

"..."

The members of Yuchi's family talked with each other.

Yuchi Yanran shook his head, "I only have a few seeds, and now you eat them all, and there will be no more."

This potato is such a precious thing, how can I get it just by saying it.

Besides, even if she could, she would have no face to go to brother Li Yi to ask for it.

Today she revealed Tudou's secret, and she still doesn't know how to face him in the future.

"Good girl, mother believes in you. If you can get the first time, you can get the second time. You should think of a way."

At this time, Mrs. Bai also felt very regretful.

Who knew that thing was food.

"No more, you have to figure out a way for yourself, I can't get it anyway."

"And today's matter about potatoes, you all have to rot in your stomach with the potatoes, don't let it out."

"Don't worry, Yan Ran, we won't talk about it."

They still have this in mind.

"Then I'll go back to my room first."

After finishing speaking, Yuchi Yanran saluted Yuchi Jingde and his wives, then turned and went back to the house.

In fact, when she was making potatoes just now, she cut off the eyes on the potatoes, and she was going to try planting them again.

Whether it will be successful or not, she has no idea.

This time Yuchi Yanran didn't plant them in the garden, but found some pots and planted potatoes in them.

After finishing all this, Yuchi Yanran clasped her hands together towards the potato, "Potato, potato, I beg you to germinate again."

This is a gift from brother Li Yi, which is of great significance. If it really fails to germinate, she will be very sad.

Fortunately, after three or four days, Yuchi Yanran got her wish and saw the sprouts emerging from the soil.

At this moment, she was finally relieved.

"Yan Ran!"

Since that day, Yuchi Jingde has been thinking about Tudou in his heart.

I couldn't bear it anymore today, so I wanted to ask my daughter to understand.

"Father, what's the matter with you?"

"Yanran, tell Dad honestly, where did you get these potatoes?" Yuchi Jingde asked straight to the point after sitting down in Yuchi Yanran's room.

Yuchi Yanran's eyes flashed, "Why is Dad still asking this question? Didn't my daughter say that I got it by chance that day?"

"Really?" Yuchi Jingde remembered clearly, she didn't say this that day.

"Our Tang Dynasty is currently short of food, and there is a drought in Hebei. People's lives are not easy. If the people can also eat those potatoes, I believe life will be much easier in the future."

Recently, they have been discussing the drought in Hebei every day in the court, but there is nothing they can do.

But the drought over there is getting worse.

If there is a way, this will undoubtedly be a timely help for the common people.

"Father, I know, but my daughter really can't talk about potatoes."

How could Wei Chi Yanran not understand this truth, but this matter was related to Li Yi's brother, she was determined not to talk about it.

"Forget it, Dad won't force you, you should think about it yourself."

Yuchi Yanran nodded absently.

Before leaving, Yuchi Jingde suddenly turned his head and asked, "Yanran, is this potato related to the one in Anju Village?"

"Father, what are you talking about? How could brother Li Yi grow the potatoes." The sudden question made Yuchi Yanran panic and quickly explained.

After Yuchi Jingde walked out of the room, his expression was clear.

Although he is a rough guy, how could his daughter not understand, obviously he guessed right.

But this matter is not a last resort, he is not going to say it.

A month later.

The drought in Hebei has become so severe that it is beyond imagination.

The ground was cracked, the people were in dire straits, they were out of food and water, and even the grass roots and bark were wrapped around their stomachs.

Sitting in the main hall, Li Er was heartbroken watching the urgent memorials that kept coming back.

The only food in the national treasury is already being transported to Hebei, but this is only a drop in the bucket and cannot solve the problem.

The political situation in Datang had just stabilized, and there was not much grain in stock at all.

After Li Er sighed, he asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"

Civil and military officials, you look at me, I look at you, they have no idea at all.

"Your Majesty, God does not reward food, so there is nothing I can do about it."

"Hey, don't you bless the people of my Great Tang this day?" Li Er sighed again.

"Where is the Qin Tianjian platform?"

"Sir, Yuan Tiangang is here."

"Preparing for the sacrificial offering, I want to offer sacrifices to the heavens to pray for rain." He didn't believe that his sincerity could not be exchanged for the pity of the heavens.

"The minister obeys the order."

"Tomorrow, all civil and military officials, as well as all the princes and princesses, will go to the roof with me to pray for rain."

"The ministers obey the order."

Afterwards.

Yuchi Jingde didn't leave in a hurry, and he didn't know whether he should tell His Majesty about that matter.

After all, all of this was just his speculation, Yan Ran did not admit it, and with that person's temperament, she might not be easy to talk to.

But he can't just watch the people suffer.

"I said big old black, why don't you leave?"

Seeing his dazed look, Cheng Yaojin slapped him and asked.

"I have something to ask His Majesty."

"Then why don't you go? Your Majesty is gone." Cheng Yaojin turned around and left without asking any further questions.

Yuchi Jingde thought for a long time, and finally walked towards the imperial study.

No matter what, you have to try it before you talk, do your best first, and then listen to the destiny!

……

"Your Majesty, it's time for breakfast."

Seeing that Li Er hadn't gone to eat, Empress Changsun brought it over with her own hands on a tray.

Li Er waved his hand, "Take it down, I have no appetite."

"Your Majesty, if you are exhausted, who will worry about the common people?"

"I am ashamed to the people of the world!" Li Er let out a long sigh.

Empress Changsun put the food in front of Li Er, walked behind him and rubbed his temples while saying, "This is a natural disaster, I don't blame you."

"I still have some jewelry in my palace. Later, I got someone to exchange them for money. I went to the people to exchange some food, and gave it to the people in Hebei."

Li Er nodded, grabbed Empress Changsun's hand, with a moved face, "It's really hard for you!"

Empress Changsun smiled, "This is what a concubine should do. Your Majesty, let's eat quickly."

Li Er picked up the chopsticks and put them down again when he really lost his appetite. At this moment, the eunuch came in and said:
"Your Majesty, Duke E is seeking an audience outside the imperial study."

"Jingde?" Li Er was a little surprised, "Let him in."

"Chen Yuchi pays homage to the emperor with respect."

Yuchi Jingde was about to salute, but was stopped by Li Er, "Okay, you don't need to be rude, tell me why you came to see me."

Yuchi Jingde thought for a while and said, "Maybe there is one person who can solve the drought in Hebei, Your Majesty!"
