[Qing Dynasty] "Gege" is polite

Besides, it has been more than half a year since Wen Liang handed in the manuscript, and some of the things that can be prepared have already been secretly planned by Yinzhen.

Yinzhen is cautious in doing things, and will not believe everything Wen Liang says. He sent people to the coast to bring the corn and potatoes that Wen Liang had mentioned, and delivered them to his village in batches for farmers to plant. And sent Feng Guoxiang to take charge of the matter.

As early as the second half of the 38th year of Kangxi, Feng Guoxiang stayed away from Baylor Mansion and stayed in Zhuangzi.Yinzhen chose him because he thought he would be calmer and more considerate in looking at these things.In fact, Feng Guoxiang had been cursing his mother in his heart for the first two months, but he was powerless, so he could only honestly hold his temper and guard the village.

Corn was the first to succeed, and it was planted at the end of October. Although the yield is not as high as that of wheat and corn planted on mature land, it has already caught up.However, the potatoes and sweet potatoes harvested at the beginning of the year were really shocking.

In the narrative provided by Wen Liang, it is written that you can try to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes in saline-alkali land or desolate land.Although Xu Zhen was dubious, he kept half of the plants and planted them on the specially selected saline-alkali land.It was a bit difficult to find such a site in the Zhuangzi of the princes and grandsons, but fortunately, they found it in a Zhuangzi with a hot spring in Yinzhen, and began to try to plant it.

The yield per mu that was finally planted was unbelievable even for the farmers who planted it themselves. After roughly calculating, the yield per mu was nearly a thousand catties!

In the Qing Dynasty, one stone was equivalent to more than 140 catties. In this way, it was seven stones!At this time, the yield of rice is at most two or three stones per mu, and wheat is more than two stones per mu. How can they not be surprised by such a high yield? !

A farmer wept with joy while holding the potatoes he had just dug out, knelt down on the soft soil and wept bitterly, wishing that this thing would appear a few years earlier to save his wife and children who starved to death due to famine.This vague cry was desolate, but it also contained joy. Even though Feng Guoxiang, who was standing beside him, could not see the farmer's sloppy appearance, he felt it deeply.

Feng Guoxiang watched this thing appear all the time. After learning about the yield per mu, he first let the farmers try and eat it, and then ecstatically sent the news to Zhenbei Le's residence. After receiving the news, Yinzhen quickly blocked it. Zhuangzi, go and check in person.

Looking at the acre of experimental land in front of him, Yinzhen was equally happy after being shocked.This thing can be used as a staple food, and it can also satisfy hunger. Wouldn't it be a great thing to plant these crops on the land that was previously desolate and uncultivable!

Yinzhen returned to Baylor's mansion joyfully, paced back and forth in the outer study room, his rare joyful appearance made the waiters curious, Su Peisheng scolded them a few words, and handed the tea to Si Baylor.Yinzhen seemed to think of something after taking two sips, "Su Peisheng, go, go and invite Wen Liang to the Lord."

Su Peisheng had already felt it, so he went to invite Wen Liang from the small courtyard.

Wen Liang had already learned from Su Peisheng's words that the trial planting was successful, and there was almost imperceptible warmth in his eyes, "Master Belle, this matter is done, and if it succeeds, it will be a big deal. It's just that you plan to tell Long Live personally Lord, should I tell the emperor through someone else's mouth?" His question was clear, with a touch of questioning.

Yinzhen's expression changed slightly, because of Wen Liang's sharp words.

Although these crops have been introduced from the West, they have not been widely promoted so far. In fact, the people are very repulsive.If he goes in person, no matter whether it is good or bad, he will bear it alone. Whether it will be successful or not is still unknown.If you tell Huang Ama through his mouth, you will share the risk, and it is equivalent to handing over the results.

The best candidate is naturally Yinfeng.

But is Yinzhen willing?

He was not willing, or rather, he had been willing.

After Yinzhen got warm and cool to offer advice, he had sidestepped the prince's side, but Yinreng was unmoved at all, and even thought that the relief food allocated a while ago was too much, and the farmland had its own repair channels, so we should pay attention to it. Focus on water conservancy and dredging.

Both of these are the most important things... If Yinzhen hadn't remembered that the person who escorted the grain cart this time was a connection with the elder brother, and the current Minister of the Household Department was on the side of the prince.

Yinzhen recalled the prince's indifferent expression at that moment, and still felt a little chilled.

Wen Liang spoke unhurriedly, with a coolness like flowing water, "A certain person who hears about the prosperity of the country regards the people as a wound; when he dies, he regards the people as the soil. Does Lord Belle think so?"

Yinzhen looked at Wen Liang sharply, swept away the comfort just now, the atmosphere became a little condensed, and the heavy pressure made it hard to look directly at, he slowly read the original sentence, "Wearing the prosperity of the country, treat the people as hurt, It's a blessing; it's death, and it's a disaster to regard the people as the soil. Wen Liang, you are so courageous!"

"Master Baylor!" At this time, both of them were standing, Wen Liang was no more than half the head of Short Yinzhen, but he stood upright with an inexplicable aura and did not flinch, "In front of you, Wen Liang has never said anything false , I don’t need any guts. If Wen Liang has something to say, it’s for your sake. You don’t have to listen, but you have to say something!”

"It's a must!" Yinzhen's momentum rose sharply, becoming even more terrifying, but his face became more and more serious, and his indifferent voice made people tremble, "If the master doesn't listen, will he become a person who speaks harshly?!" Waving his sleeves, Su Peisheng's calf trembled.If he had known earlier, he should have gone out together. If he heard something he shouldn't have heard, wouldn't it be fatal!

Wen Liang took a step back, bowed deeply, his wide sleeves touched the carpet, and the hem of his skirt swayed slightly with his movements, causing slight waves, "Master Baylor, I didn't force you to do something, but just made a suggestion. It's up to you to listen, It's not that you have no other choice. The master is so angry, I'm afraid it's because of Wen Liang's words, this is a common thing. If you don't want to do this, you can use another method, and Wen Liang will definitely obey."

After a long pause, only Yinzhen's indifferent voice was heard, "If you don't change your words, you are not afraid that the Lord will really kill you?"

"When a scholar dies for his confidant, he will be warm and cool without regret."

Although it was early spring, there was still light snow scattered outside, and a thin layer of white snow shimmered under the moonlight.The rustling of leaves and the soundless fluttering of falling snow merge together into the scenery of this spring night.

As the night deepened, a line of footprints suddenly appeared on the snow that had already covered all traces, disappeared abruptly on the exquisite gallery, and subtly appeared at the end after a while, spreading to the gate of the small courtyard.

Zhu Bao folded his arms and guarded the door, his head was immersed in sleep bit by bit, the hot and cold feeling made him really uncomfortable.Although he was guarding the gate during the day, this was after all the Baylor mansion, so there was no need for a night watch. If it wasn't for Wen Liang's return, Zhu Bao would also go back to the house to rest at this time.

Luyi trotted through the cobblestone path in the courtyard, and when she saw Zhu Bao, who was half asleep and half awake, she slapped hard, and said bitterly, "Sleep, sleep, sleep, you know sleep! Gege hasn't yet Come back, go out later to look for it, why did it suddenly snow this day, I should have prepared a coat for Ge Ge, but now I don’t know if it’s freezing.”

Zhu Bao straightened the brim of his hat, scratched the corner of his mouth and was about to speak when he heard a knock on the door.He hastily opened the door bolt and let in the warmth that was chilling all over his body. As soon as he entered the door, Lu Yi stuffed a hand stove, "Ge Ge, warm your hands first, and this servant will get you a basin of water to soak your feet."

Wen Liang nodded half-heartedly, with black and silver hair, he raised his hand and patted, the wet and cold feeling penetrated into the bone marrow, and a few snowflakes swirled with his movements, and finally melted into the white traces under his feet.

After soaking his feet, Wen Liang hugged the stove and shrank into the bed. The earth dragon in the house pulled Wen Liang out of the coldness and stuffed him into the warmth again.And such a warm temperature also made his thoughts drowsy.Outside the house, Lu Yi and Zhu Bao walked back and forth, and soon became quiet again.

The two of them stayed in the back room to keep vigil for the warmth during the winter. Although it is not a good choice to be soft and lay the floor, but as long as the house is connected to the earth dragon, the warm feeling is enough to make them happy.

Most of the thinking space in Wen Liang's mind began to pause, perhaps the movement of the hand stove slipping from his palm woke him up again, Wen Liang moved his body, stuffed it deeper into the bedding, yawned and began to want to sleep.

He did it on purpose.

When Wen Liang learned that Tongque offered a plan, he knew that there was no way to recover from this matter, and it was a foregone conclusion.That being the case, it is impossible for him to suffer this dull loss in vain. The cause is not bad for Yinzhen, but the result is beneficial to him.

From the observation during this period, Wen Liang realized that Yinzhen might have feelings in his heart, but he never expressed his thoughts of pointing his sword at the throne.This not only means that the crown prince is not enough to disappoint him, but also means that he is not enlightened yet.

This will not work.

Wen Liang has always wanted Yinzhen to get Kangxi's attention as soon as possible, but now he is not even sure what he really thinks?In this way, Wen Liang took the initiative to add some firewood.Even the firewood knife was personally delivered to Yinzhen's hands, Wen Liang didn't believe that Yinzhen wouldn't be tempted!

Half a month later, when I heard that Yinzhen was taking Kangxi on a trip in person, Wen Liang asked Zhu Bao to boil hot water, and soaked in the bathtub to let out a long sigh of relief.He raised his hand to wipe his arm, and the water droplets he raised rolled from the wet skin to the water surface, making small splashes.

A chance to see what the prince thinks is just the first big gift Wen Liang gave Yinzhen.

The future that has been vaguely excluded since then is the second share. Can the prince see his fourth brother take the credit for nothing that no one has discovered?

If he can really hold back his jealousy, the prince will not become more arrogant and domineering in the next few years.

At the same time, dozens of miles away, curled up in white smoke.

A group of people stepped on the path and looked at the hot scene behind the hillside. The middle-aged man at the head nodded with satisfaction, "Fourth, this is not bad. But it doesn't show up, and there are only green leaves left. What are you planting?"
