Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children

Yinzhen was wearing a short shirt and nodding as he talked to an old farmer in the field.

Shen Jiang wrapped her head with a scarf and set up a pavilion next to the farmland, with tea in the pavilion.

When Kangxi saw this scene upon his arrival, he was touched and said with a smile: "You are so happy!"

The two hurried over to pay their respects, and Yinzhen said, "Khan Ama, please wait a moment while your son changes his clothes."

Kangxi waved his hand and said, "No need. Let's go to the fields and take a look." He personally went to the fields to discuss rice with the old farmers.

The old farmers were terrified and told him: "Prince Yong and his wife found several varieties of rice and taught us how to use hybridization. We divided the farmland into experimental plots, each with a different variety of rice."

Kangxi was very interested and talked with the old farmer for a long time. He also personally inspected the experimental field.

Shen Jiang ordered people to prepare wine and food. It was not any big fish or meat, but some country game, and he also roasted a beggar's chicken.

There was no banquet or any distinction of priority. They just sat around a round table like a family.

Kangxi smiled and said, "This is very good. Today I am either the emperor of the Qing Dynasty or an old man from an ordinary banner family."

Shen Jiang smiled and said, "Old man, please take a seat."

"Okay, okay. Yinzhen, you sit to my left, and the children sit to my right." Kangxi arranged the seating, with his son and daughter-in-law on one side and his grandchildren on the other. He was very satisfied.

Because of Kangxi's arrival, Hongxi escaped a beating, so he became particularly close to his grandfather. During the meal, everyone else was well behaved, but he was the only one who picked up food for Kangxi in a friendly manner.

"Marfa, this is delicious, eat this. And this is also delicious, eat it!"

Yinzhen was stunned and tried to stop him: "Hongxi..." But Kangxi shook his head at him, indicating that he didn't need to interrupt.

Kangxi picked up the dish that Hongxi picked for him with a smile and said, "Hongxi said this dish is delicious, right? Okay, Mafa will try it right away. Yes, it is delicious!"

Kangxi could tell from the food Shen Jiang prepared that this family liked to eat food in its original flavor. Take this stir-fried bean sprouts for example. If it were made in the palace, the meat would be stuffed into the bean sprout stalks. But the fourth family's dish was simply stir-fried with oil and salt, without any other seasonings.

Cooking is like being a person. The fourth brother, his wife and their children are all so innocent.

When he had almost finished eating, Kangxi put down his chopsticks and sighed.

Everyone put down their chopsticks immediately. Kangxi sighed and said, "Today's meal is the most delicious meal I have had in the past year."

"Father..." Yinzhen knelt down quickly.

As soon as he knelt, Shen Jiang and the children followed suit. Kangxi did not call them to stand up immediately. After sitting quietly for a while, he said, "Everyone, stand up!"

Kangxi was about to leave, and everyone saw him off to the door. He reminded them again: "Live your life well."

From then on, Yinzhen lived as a "rich and idle man" in the Old Summer Palace every day.

Suddenly, time came to the 50th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. In this year, the hybrid rice researched by Prince Yong Yinzhen and his wife in the Old Summer Palace began to show results, with a single-season yield of eight to nine stones per mu, and there was no reduction in yield in the second season.

This was more successful than the "Early Imperial Rice" of Kangxi, which also produced two crops a year, with the yield per mu reaching four shi or more in the first season. However, the yield would drop to two to three shi in the second season.

The rice in the Old Summer Palace not only grew exponentially, but also did not decrease in yield. This made Kangxi very excited and he visited the Old Summer Palace again.

Yinzhen and the old farmers personally explained rice to Kangxi, and Shen Jiang took out the experimental records.

Kangxi held the heavy ears of rice and shouted several times: "Good, good, good..."

Yinzhen said cautiously: "Khan Ama, this kind of rice is only grown in the garden now, and I don't know whether it can be promoted to the capital area. I'm afraid I will have to trouble Khan Ama for this matter."

Kangxi immediately said: "I will issue an order to promote this kind of rice to Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. By the way, what is the name of this rice?"

Yinzhen said hurriedly: "I dare not name it, please give it to me, Khan."

Kangxi was thinking of a name when Shen Jiang smiled and said, "It's not difficult. Since the rice was produced during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, we should call it 'Kangxi Rice'. It can also be regarded as our filial piety to Khan Ama."

Yinzhen said, "What the princess said is very true."

Kangxi smiled and said, "Okay, let's call it 'Kangxi Rice'!"

Kangxi rice was soon promoted in the capital. After one season of maturity, the yield per mu was almost the same as that in the experimental fields. Farmers in the suburbs of Beijing had a bumper harvest and were all excited and celebrating.

Yinzhen was greatly commended by Kangxi, who not only rewarded him with gold, silver and jewelry, but also conferred the title of princess on Zarafen, who was about to get married.

All the princes went to Prince Yong's Mansion to congratulate him. Yinzhen could handle it at first, but later he became fed up and simply closed the door to visitors.

When talking about this with Shen Jiang, Yinzhen felt both angry and amused: "The Eighth Prince's gang hasn't given up yet and are plotting to take over the throne. Haven't they learned enough from the last lesson? The most infuriating thing is the Fourteenth Prince, who is still counting money for others even after being sold out!"

He felt that the Fourteenth Prince's brain was on his butt, even worse than that of Hongxi, the youngest in the family. He actually helped the Eighth Prince to lobby him to join the Eighth Prince's camp.

This isn't just shit on your brain!

"You can defy the will of Heaven, but you cannot survive the sin of your own making." Shen Jiang curled his lips and said, "Fourth Master, don't bother with them. Although Fourteenth Brother is stupid, he is good at marching and fighting. He can be an assistant general in the future."

Therefore, it makes sense that Kangxi sent the Fourteenth Prince to Qinghai to fight in his later years.

The couple no longer paid attention to the people outside and concentrated on preparing for Zarafen's wedding.

Zarafen has been registered under Shen Jiang's name and has no relationship with Li anymore, but Zarafen is about to get married, and Shen Jiang hesitates whether to let Li come out and let Zarafen meet her.

Like Niuhulu, Li had been locked up in a small courtyard and was not allowed to come out during the holidays. If Zarafen had not been getting married, Li would have been locked up for life.

Shen Jiang had no good feelings towards Li, but Zarafen had been by her side for so many years, Shen Jiang had long regarded Zarafen as her own daughter. It was because she loved her daughter that she mentioned Li.

Zarafen was stunned and said nothing, but Yinzhen strongly opposed it and forbade Zarafen to see Li again, as if she had never had this biological mother.

In the end, they both took a step back, and Zarafen kowtowed to Li in the yard before leaving, thus repaying his gratitude.

On the day of Zarafen's wedding, she held Shen Jiang's hand and cried, "Ene, thank you, thank you..."

Looking at Zarafen getting into the bridal sedan, Shen Jiang's eyes also became moist.

System: "If you let her bid farewell to her biological mother, she will be grateful to you for the rest of her life."

"I don't need her gratitude, I just... do you understand this feeling? I can control the love between men and women, but maternal love is an instinct."

That's why she would clear her memory after every mission. After this mission, she would forget about Zarafen and everything here.
