The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

Chapter 185 I Want You to Abolish the Harem

Happy times are always fleeting, and in the blink of an eye it was the eve of Zhao Hengzhi and Fu Ziyan's departure.

"Zi Yan, don't be sad. This brief separation is for a more beautiful reunion in the future."

Thinking about leaving soon, Fu Ziyan lost all interest in eating, and Fu Yunxi had no choice but to comfort her.

"You said we finally got together, but we have to separate again. Although we can meet again in the future, you and I both know that after this separation, we don't know when we will see each other again."

Fu Zi Yan was not comforted by Fu Yunxi, but became even more sad. What she said was true. Zhao Hengzhi would face a war after returning to the palace, and Fu Yunxi would also go to southern Xinjiang where dangers were lurking. This separation might last for several years or even decades.

"No matter how long it takes, we will meet again. I will take you to a place where I promised to give you gifts to fulfill my promise. You have always been curious about it, right? Come with me to take a look."

Fu Yunxi was also sad! It's just that everyone has their own mission. Instead of lamenting here, it's better to cherish this last time together and leave no regrets.

"Well, I'd like to see what the gift is. Don't let me down."

As expected, Fu Ziyan's attention was diverted by Fu Yunxi. The pleasant time they were spending together now would make her look forward to the future reunion even more!

"This is it, Mr. Zhao, please get off the car."

Fu Yunxi asked Brother Mu to drive the carriage to the first place where the county magistrate planted grain. This is the largest farmland in Lianjiang County. Other villages are all scattered households. From a distance, the visual impact here is far beyond comparison with other places.

"This is, wheat?"

As soon as Zhao Heng got off the carriage, he was shocked by the scene before him. In front of him was a field of wheat waves with golden ears of wheat swaying in the wind, as if signaling to him. What excited him most was the fullness of the grain and the high yield that was visible to the naked eye.

A year of observing the people's sentiments made him, as a prince, deeply aware of the hardships of farmers. They have been making the most arduous efforts, but have only reaped the meager rewards. Current farming is still at the stage of relying on God's gift, but even if God favors, it is impossible for wheat to cover the entire land densely and with full grains. According to visual estimation, the wheat yield per acre here is dozens or even hundreds of times that of other areas.

"That's right, wherever Mr. Zhao looks, there are grains. This side is wheat, that side is corn, and there are also kapok, sweet potatoes, and so on."

Fu Yunxi was filled with pride at this moment. The second and third batches of county magistrates had expanded the planting, and the grain would be harvested soon. It was estimated that this output would not only meet the needs of the people of Lianjiang County for one year, but there would even be some surplus.

"Yun Xi, this is a huge surprise! As far as we know, the farming conditions in Lianjiang County are the worst in the Great Zhao Kingdom, mainly due to the special geology and bad weather. How did you manage to produce so much food?"

Fu Ziyan had never expected to witness this scene here. If it was in her previous life, she would not be surprised. After all, scientists have been working day and night to increase the country's grain production by a hundred times. But now is the backward ancient times! In the famine years when the people were hungry, Lianjiang County could have such a high yield of grain. I'm afraid the emperor would be jealous!

"Because I have successfully developed new seeds that are not only resistant to pests but also have a high yield and can survive in most weather and soil conditions, you can see that they are being planted quite well in Lianjiang County."

Fu Yunxi was not modest at this time. She hoped to use this gift to add weight to her best friend's love.

"This is truly shocking. Yun Xi, you are always so outstanding!"

Fu Zi Yan has never forgotten that Fu Yunxi was an outstanding medical graduate student in her previous life. If she had not traveled through time, she would have become an outstanding doctor and scientist and her future would have been limitless.

"Well, this is the gift I want to give you - a new type of high-yield seed. I have seeds for any type of grain you can name. Each type weighs about 1,500 kilograms. You can take as many as you want when you set off tomorrow!"

This was the valuable gift that Fu Yunxi gave to Zhao Hengzhi. She knew very well the importance of grain to an emperor. With this high-yield seed, the revival process of the Great Zhao Kingdom would be accelerated many times.

Mu Yibai was also proud of his wife. He had long expected that Fu Yunxi would send seeds and supported her move. These seeds could benefit the people and gradually reduce the number of people who had insufficient food.

"Is this true? Yibai, sister-in-law, you really gave us a great gift! I'm so excited, sister-in-law, I will protect you from now on and let you travel freely in Lianjiang County and even the Great Zhao Kingdom!"

Zhao Hengzhi could hardly suppress his excitement at this moment. He knew better than anyone how valuable this gift was. With sufficient food, the Great Zhao Kingdom would be able to quickly recover to the situation before the natural disaster, and even achieve a peaceful and prosperous era with happy people and abundant livelihood. This gift could not be measured by money and was a priceless treasure.

"..."

"Mr. Zhao has said too much. I am just an ordinary person. I cannot walk freely on the street."

Fu Yunxi was amused by Zhao Hengzhi's words. She was not a crab, and she gave him this not to seek shelter. With her and Mu Yibai's abilities, they were enough to protect the Mu family and did not need the protection of the royal family at all.

"Haha, Yunxi, Hengzhi is too happy."

Fu Zi Yan couldn't help laughing. After spending several days together, she had already discovered the extraordinary qualities of Fu Yunxi and Mu Yibai. These two people, who even the system couldn't figure out, must be heroes among men. Why would they need to rely on the title of royal family?

"That's fine, Mr. Zhao, why don't you come with me to look at other food over there? The corns are fresh and tender right now, you can take two back and cook them for yourself."

Fu Yunxi took the initiative to invite Zhao Hengzhi to move. Mu Yibai knew what she was thinking and followed them from a distance.

Fu Ziyan walked towards the sweet potato field in the opposite direction. She wanted to eat roasted sweet potatoes!

"Sister-in-law, I am truly grateful from the bottom of my heart. I thank you on behalf of the people of the world, but this thank you is too light. If I can ascend to a high position in the future, I will definitely promise you and Yibai anything within my power."

Zhao Hengzhi understood that Fu Yunxi must have something to ask him alone, so he took the initiative to express his attitude and show his sincerity.

"It is hard to predict what will happen in the future. I want you to agree to one condition right now. The first thing you do after becoming the emperor is to abolish the harem."

Fu Yunxi stared into Zhao Hengzhi's eyes and stated word by word. When Mu Yibai, who was far away, heard this, he suddenly stopped in his tracks and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

This is the person he loves, who can do anything for the person he cares about without any scruples, even threatening the future emperor.
