I was a prince in ancient times

Chen Hui didn't react when he heard Xie Anlan's words, and blurted out, "What?"

Xie Anlan walked into the mansion and said with a smile, "At the beginning of this year, Chen Gui found another crop. I asked someone from the household department to look at it. It is very suitable for you in Lingnan. I originally thought about trying to promote it in Lingnan early next year. Yes, since you are here, there are still some seeds left in the house, so you can take them back."

Xie Anlan spoke the authentic Imperial dialect, while Chen Hui lived in Lingnan all year round. Although he knew some Imperial dialect, he was not very proficient, and he still spoke with a strong Lingnan accent. After a while, I finally figured out what the prince said.

"My lord..." Chen Hui's voice trembled a little, "What does your lord mean to say, Guanshi Chen has found a new species, and it is very suitable for planting in our south of the Five Ridges?"

"Yes," Xie Anlan stopped and waited for him to meet, and looked at him knowingly, "Is there any problem?"

"No... no problem." Chen Hui shook his head like a rattle, how could there be a problem, this is simply great for Lingnan.

"However, this product can only be used for food. Compared with cotton, its effect may not be very great." Xie Anlan was also afraid that his expectations would be too high, and he would end up disappointed in the end, so she made it clear to him.

"It's great to be able to find new edible species. We don't dislike it." Chen Hui didn't dislike it at all. People in the Yong Dynasty didn't know that they were notoriously poor in Lingnan. The water is not good, and mountain torrents are often caused in summer. People are either flooded or buried by mountains. Displaced people often flee to neighboring states. People in neighboring states ridicule them as a group of beggars in Lingnan.

Who wants to be called a beggar, this is not impossible.

Whoever can solve the mountain torrents in the south of the Five Ridges for them and let them get rid of the title of beggars is their ancestor!

But Wangye’s cement has done it. In the past two years, because of the availability of cement, people from the Ministry of Industry have used cement to repair waterways in their Lingnan, making the river embankments that were often washed down by floods firm in the past, and no longer rushing to those mountains. Years have not happened on a large scale.

The common people can finally live and work in peace and contentment, and will no longer run to neighboring states to escape when the rainy season comes, and be called beggars.

These are brought to them by the prince, how can we not tell them to be grateful.

Not to mention that this new species is edible and suitable for planting in Lingnan, even if it is useless, if the prince told them to plant it, they would plant it.

Xie Anlan still wanted to talk to him, but his eyes were shining brightly, and he looked at her with admiration, and silently closed his mouth.

Come on, there is nothing to say about this appearance, I am afraid that he is willing to let him die immediately now.

Just at this time Chen Gui was called over, Xie Anlan stopped talking to Chen Hui, turned around and told Chen Gui, "This is the steward from Lingnan, and he belongs to your family. Lingnan is just suitable for growing chili peppers. You can grow chili peppers." If you are familiar with him, you can take him to learn about chili.”

Chen Gui nodded expressionlessly. In the past year, no matter whether it was the prince or princess, or people inside and outside the house, they all said that he found the cotton and peppers.

At first he was suspicious that it was not him, but after a long time, he gradually accepted this fact.

"Chen Guanshi." Chen Hui didn't worship Chen Gui as much as Xie Anlan, but he was still respectful.

That cotton can make people in the world no longer suffer from the cold. Although they can't grow it in Lingnan, they will have to buy cotton to make clothes in the future, and they have to accept this love.

"You and I are both in charge, so you don't have to be polite." Chen Gui was not used to seeing Chen Hui treat him respectfully.

"Different, different."

Chen Hui's imperial dialect with a strong south of the Five Ridges accent, these few words were so funny that Xie Anlan, who hadn't gone far, couldn't stop the corners of his lips from curling up.

Chen Gui looked at Chen Hui's stubborn eyes that were sincere and did not intend to change, so he had to let it go.

"Come with me, I'll take you to meet Chili." Chen Gui turned around and prepared to take Chen back to the greenhouse.

The glass was made, and since it would not be sold outside for a while, Xie Anlan used the remaining glass to build a super-large greenhouse in the palace, and planted some off-season crops to ensure that they could enjoy their own taste in winter. Want to eat food.

There is no lack of glass, and the conservatory is all made of glass. It is not only bright but also warm when you walk in.

When Chen Gui led Chen Hui into the greenhouse, Chen Hui opened his mouth wide in surprise, not daring to touch this huge greenhouse made entirely of colored glaze.

"This... So many colored glazes are used to grow vegetables!" After Chen Hui finished speaking, he felt like a countryman who had never seen the world.

The prince is a man of gold, not to mention using colored glaze to build a greenhouse, even throwing colored glaze is fine.

Chen Gui was not frightened by his surprise, but went straight to find the place where peppers were grown, and explained to him plainly, "This is not colored glaze, this is the glass made by our lord himself, which is even better than colored glaze."

"Glass..." Chen Hui heard this new word for the first time, murmured it for a while, and finally said slowly, "It's a good name."

Chen Gui let out a "hmm", thought for a while and then said, "Since the prince brought you into the palace, he trusts you. After you leave the palace, you must forget what you saw and heard." Be clean, if there is any news outside, watch your head carefully."

All the servants who can work in the Prince Chen's Mansion follow two rules, the first is to be obedient, and the second is to shut up.

There are many good things in the Prince Chen's Mansion, and there are also many confidential matters. If anyone can pry open the mouths of these servants, wouldn't their Prince Chen Mansion be a display.

Therefore, the Prince Chen's Mansion doesn't welcome outsiders very much, nor will they hold banquets in the mansion.

Chen Hui immediately closed his mouth knowingly.

The prince not only has great kindness to him, but also trusts him so much, how can he live up to the trust of the prince.

Chen Gui saw that he was quite sensible, and had no intention of poisoning him. He pointed to a small green pepper plant at his feet and said, "This is the pepper."

Chen Hui squatted down to look at the chili pepper, which was pointed like a crescent moon, and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "It looks pretty, but I don't know how it tastes."

When Chen Gui saw him talking about the taste, a subtle look flashed across his face, "Of course the taste is very unique, I'll take you to the kitchen to taste it later."

"Good, good." Chen Hui was overjoyed to be able to taste the taste of this new type of species. He stretched out his finger and counted the peppers on this pepper plant, and smiled, "The yield of one plant is quite a lot."

"After all, the ones planted in the greenhouse are no better than those planted outside. This is where they are, and as many buds as the peppers will grow, some peppers will grow first and some will grow later. They can be picked for a long time." The Ministry invited me to drink tea once, and Chen Gui paid extra attention to the chili peppers, and squatted in the field to study if he had nothing to do, so that he would not be afraid of being unable to answer people's questions.

"After you take the pepper seeds back, you don't need to plant them on the farmland. You can find some sandy soil or mountainous land to plant them. Just remember to be diligent." Chen Gui explained to him what he had observed in the past six months in detail. Chen listened back.

"That's great." Chen Hui couldn't stop nodding.

"Of course," Chen Gui patted him on the shoulder. "The seeds of the green pepper cannot be saved, but they can be eaten. If you save the seeds, you have to wait until it turns red."

"Can it turn red?" Chen Hui was surprised, the green chili is so pretty, wouldn't it look better when it turned red.

Chen Gui smiled and didn't answer him, instead he stood up and said, "Come on, I'll take you to the kitchen to meet the red pepper, and taste its flavor by the way."

"Okay." Chen Hui reluctantly left the greenhouse, and followed Chen Gui to the back kitchen of the palace.

Before the two of them entered the kitchen, they saw from a distance the fiery red peppers hanging outside the kitchen door, strung together like braids of a girl's hair.

"It's so beautiful." The pepper is red like a flame, which is very eye-catching at first glance, not to mention hanging on the door in this way, in this cold winter day, it shines like a flame on a person's chest, festive and bright Eye.

"Pretty, it tastes even more beautiful." Chen Gui took Chen Hui directly to Chaolu, who was busy in the kitchen, and explained to her why he came.

Zhao Lu glanced at Chen Hui, who couldn't move his eyes from Chili, and went to work without saying anything.

After a while, a choking smell came from the kitchen. Chen Gui and the servants in the kitchen had already gotten used to the choking smell, and stood outside the kitchen door without changing expressions.

Chen Hui, who had just arrived, had never smelled such a choking smell before. When he was choked by the smell of chili pepper, his face turned red and he sneezed again and again.

"Chen... Manager Chen... what is this... why is it so choking." Chen Hui ran a few steps away from the kitchen, and asked while sneezing.

Chen Gui couldn't help laughing because of his appearance, "This is the pepper."

"No wonder it's called pepper." Chen Hui sneezed a few more times, "It's so choking, it must be very spicy."

Chen Gui was surprised that he realized it by himself, and the fun of trying to play tricks on him was gone.

Before long, Chao Lu fried a lot of dishes with chili peppers. She cooked a lot and gained a lot of experience. This time, she made three flavors: slightly spicy, medium spicy, and extra spicy. She smiled back at Chen, "Try if you can accept that taste."

Chen Hui tried the slightly spicy one at first, and it felt good, and he could barely accept the medium spicy one. When it was extra spicy, his forehead started to sweat.

"Don't eat too spicy at the beginning." Zhao Lu kindly reminded him when he saw that he kept eating very spicy food, sweating a lot on his forehead and refusing to stop.

"This is the best time~" Chen Hui's tongue curled up from the heat, and he couldn't articulate his words clearly, mixed with his thick accent, which instantly amused Chen Gui and Zhao Lu.

"You have to do it less frequently, or you will feel better at night." Zhao Lu imitated him and tried to persuade him.

However, Chen Hui, who has suffered from miasma all the year round, couldn’t stop once he came into contact with chili peppers. The hot feeling seemed to flow along his limbs and squeeze out the miasma in his body. , how can I hear what Chaolu said.

So Chen Hui devoured a plate of extremely spicy dishes by himself in three or two bites.

Shocked, Zhao Lu and Chen Gui parted their lips slightly, "You may feel uncomfortable somewhere."

"Other than a little spicy and hot, I don't feel any discomfort." Chen Hui put down the bowl and chopsticks, and wiped the sweat from his temples with his sleeve.

"What about the stomach?" Zhao Lu looked at his stomach worriedly, "Does the stomach hurt if it's not hot?"

She still remembers that when she ate chili for the first time, her stomach was so hot that it hurt for a day. If it hadn't been confirmed that it was not poisonous, she would have wondered if she was poisoned.

"It's warm, not spicy." Chen Hui waved his hand, he really didn't feel anything.

"You're good, kid. You can compete with our princess in eating spicy food." Chen Gui hooked Chen Hui's shoulder and praised.

Chen Hui laughed and asked, "Can the princess eat spicy food like this?"

"That's right, when the chili came out, the princess was very good at eating spicy food." Chen Gui recalled and said.

"I don't know what's going on. Once I eat this chili, I feel refreshed and I can't stop." Chen Hui scratched his hair, "Maybe the princess is the same as me."

Zhao Lu and Chen Gui couldn't figure it out and could only nod their heads in agreement.

Chen Gui talked to Chen Hui about the chili all day long, and he was fine all day long, but at night he suddenly had a pain in his lower abdomen and hurried to find the toilet.

Chen Gui chased him out when he ran out, and he knew that this kid was unreliable, and he couldn't count on spicy food.

"Take it hard, continue." Chen Gui chuckled from outside the latrine to Chen Hui who was in the latrine, and threw the roll of paper with him.

Under the moonlight, Chen Hui saw the soft object in his hand and said in amazement, "What is this?"

After Chen Gui told Chen Hui the usefulness of the paper, Chen Hui opened his lips slightly, "Such a good movement...is actually used for going to the toilet..."

"This is what the lord made recently," Chen Gui said proudly, "Don't feel bad, it looks soft, but it's actually made of bagasse."

"Bassage!" Chen Hui turned over and over again, but could not see the traces of bagasse on the soft paper towel.

I feel deeply that the Chenwang Mansion is really not an ordinary place, and the cost of food and clothing should be different from the outside.

Chen Gui took Chen Hui to live in Chenwang Mansion for a few days, learned more about the technology of growing chili peppers, and saw more strange things.

Five days later, Xie Anlan finally received the news from the imperial hospital that Fu Zhao woke up.

After a serious illness, although the body is still weak, but compared to the previous days, the appearance of hanging with one breath, I don't know how energetic it is.

"If you survive a catastrophe, you will have good fortune." Xie Anlan stepped into the imperial hospital with her hands behind her back, and smiled when she saw Fu Zhao, who was eating, whose complexion had obviously improved.

"My lord." Fu Zhao immediately stopped eating, stood up and cupped his fists slightly, "Thank you lord for saving my life this time."

Xie Anlan moved her body to one side, refusing to accept his thanks, "Don't thank me, I didn't do anything, the one who saved you was Doctor Zhang, you have to thank him."

Seeing that Xie Anlan didn't accept his thanks, Fu Zhao looked embarrassed, and felt relieved after hearing his words.

His eyes were locked on Xie Anlan, although he no longer said thank you, but he kept saying it in his heart.

"What's the matter?" Xie Anlan had seen this kind of look a lot in the past two days, but he was not as embarrassed as he was at first, and asked with a low cough.

"Except for some pain and itching at the wound, there is no other discomfort." Fu Zhao shook his head.

"Itching means the wound is healing, it's normal." Fu Zhao was wearing clothes and Xie Anlan couldn't see the wound. Hearing him say it was itchy, the corners of his lips curved slightly.

Fortunately, Fu Zhao also knew this truth and nodded.

Doctor Zhang heard that Xie Anlan was coming, so he immediately stopped what he was doing and rushed over.

"My lord." Doctor Zhang cupped his hands.

Xie Anlan nodded at him, "Doctor Zhang Yu is a busy man."

"I'm not as busy as my lord when I'm busy." Doctor Zhang shook his head. As an imperial doctor, he can save only those people in the imperial hospital, but what the lord wants to save is thousands of people in the world.

Xie Anlan smiled and didn't answer his words.

"My lord, I don't know how precious this alcohol is." Seeing that the lord stopped talking, Doctor Zhang asked again.

Xie Anlan looked up at him, "What?"

"It's like this," Doctor Zhang paused, and said slowly, "After treating the dead son that day, the lower officials saw that the alcohol was quite effective, so they tried it on others."

Xie Anlan raised her eyes, waiting for his next words.

Doctor Zhang Yu said, "I found that this alcohol has a miraculous effect on treating minor injuries. Usually, if a small wound is wiped with alcohol and then applied with medicine, it will heal faster than applying medicine directly. But if it is used for serious injuries, the opposite is true." , a little carelessness will exacerbate the deterioration of the wound.”

Xie Anlan looked at Fu Zhao suspiciously. As Zhang Yuyi said, Fu Zhao's meeting will not get better.

After all, he is not a medical student, and the use of alcohol is limited to disinfection. He was in a hurry that day, so he might give it a try.

Doctor Zhang saw that Xie Anlan looked at Fu Zhao suspiciously and said with a smile, "The son's wound did deteriorate a little after using alcohol that day, but afterward, he wiped the edge of the wound with alcohol and did not touch the wound directly. The wound miraculously began to heal, and it no longer festered."

"It should be caused by the prince stitching the wound together, but the reason why the alcohol can accelerate the healing of the wound without touching the wound, I don't understand."

Xie Anlan pursed her lips and asked, "These days, you just researched this."

Doctor Zhang pondered for a moment, and then said, "The lower official also found that the way the prince wiped his body with alcohol is actually inappropriate."

After finishing speaking, he looked up to see that Xie Anlan was not angry, and continued, "Use the alcohol brought by the prince directly. It evaporates too fast, and people are prone to lack of water. It is better to wipe the neck and armpits on a small area after diluting it."

Xie Anlan twitched her lips and looked at Fu Zhao, "In this case, you don't have to thank me, it's all up to you."

"Without the lord's method of suturing the wound, Fu Zhao wouldn't be able to last much longer." Fu Zhao smiled lightly.

No matter what, if it wasn't for Xie Anlan's hard work, maybe he would not be in this world today, and Fu Zhaode recognized this love.

As for Xie Anlan's words, he still didn't listen, so he left.

"My lord, this alcohol is very expensive to make." Doctor Zhang asked the original topic again after finishing speaking, "If the cost is not high, I think it can be promoted in the army or in pharmacies, although the lower officials still have some effect on this alcohol. Vaguely, but a simple experiment found it to prevent the plague, as did powdered lime."

Xie Anlan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this medical student is better than a layman like him, and in just a few days, he has almost felt the effects of alcohol.

He didn't need to spend his time explaining it. He felt relieved and said with a smile, "This alcohol is extracted from bagasse by this king, and the cost is really not expensive."

Doctor Zhang suddenly realized after hearing this, "It turns out that the bagasse that was rumored outside was discovered by the prince as medical alcohol."

"Doctor Zhang also placed a bet?" Xie Anlan couldn't help asking seeing that he, a busy person, knew about it.

Doctor Zhang showed a smile on his face, "I have never placed a bet, but I am afraid that many people will lose the bet."

As soon as Doctor Zhang finished speaking, the expressions of the other doctors who followed behind him changed.

Seeing their expressions, Xie Anlan still didn't understand, and said with a smile, "Small bets are fun, but big bets hurt your health. Don't follow in the footsteps of this king."

"Your Majesty taught you the right thing." After hearing this, several imperial doctors straightened their expressions.

Fu Zhao, who was lying on the hospital bed, heard them talk about gambling, and wondered, "This is talking about how the alcohol thing is involved in gambling."

"The king brought some bagasse into the mansion some time ago, and the outsiders joined in the fun and started gambling, betting on what the king can create this time." Xie Anlan explained casually.

Fu Zhaoming realized, and asked again, "Then what is everyone betting the most on?"

"Eat." The faces of the imperial doctors were ugly, "These days when the prince is not out of the mansion, there will always be a strong aroma of wine in the mansion of the Prince Chen, and sugarcane has the function of making wine, so many people put their bets on it. On 'Eat'."

"It's my fault. I covered up the smell early, and I won't teach you to lose money in gambling." Xie Anlan could hear the resentment in their tone, and joked.

"Don't dare, dare not." All the imperial doctors immediately silenced.

Xie Anlan just laughed at them, but who knew they were so boring, she stopped talking to them, turned to Fu Zhao and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

Fu Zhao is the heir apparent of Marquis Weiyuan, and he has been dancing with Fu Zheng since he was a child. He is very skilled in martial arts, and he is surrounded by a group of escorts. How could he be injured so badly.

"It's hard to put into words." Fu Zhao's complexion darkened. His complexion was originally wheat-colored, and he looked a little dark. They will also send people to inquire about Yong Chao's recent situation."

"The border has just returned to stability. In order not to let these grassland people disturb the tranquility of the border, my father arranged for us to patrol outside from time to time. When we leave the border, there is an endless grassland. The grassland people cunningly dyed their clothes with grass juice and hid them in the grass. , and when we get close to their encirclement, they will kill us."

Fu Zhao briefly explained what happened, his palms clenched into fists.

"Then you didn't notice it at all when you passed through their encirclement." Xie Anlan felt strange.

"The grassland is not a battlefield we are familiar with, plus it is grass-colored at a glance, and the eyes are easily blurred. They are familiar with the terrain and hide well..." Fu Zhao was also powerless when talking about this. I haven't fought many battles in the grassland department. When I came to their area, I always fought with the grassland people on the chassis of the Yong Dynasty. I had never stepped into the grassland. I was not familiar with the terrain, which was a disadvantage.

Xie Anlan nodded to express her understanding. After thinking for a while, she took out a long tube object from her waist, played with it in her hand for a while, then put it next to her eyes for a while, and handed it to Fu Zhao, "See if this thing is right for you. You fight to make a difference."

"What is this?" Fu Zhao took the long tube object, imitating Xie Anlan's playful appearance and placed it next to his eyes, feeling dazzled for a while, and quickly moved it away.

"Don't look at the nearby place, look at the far away place." Xie Anlan reminded.

Fu Zhao had no choice but to put the long thing on his eyes again, and looked out of the window facing the hospital bed.

This look was incredible, he actually clearly saw some dust on the roof outside the ward.

He thought he had misread it, put it down, rubbed his eyes and put it back on again, and continued in another place. This time his goal was a cluster of fallen leaves in the corner, and he clearly saw the ants crawling on the fallen leaves .

Fu Zhao put down the object in his hand again and looked out the window with his eyes. He could see the fallen leaf he had just seen through the object in his hand, but it was impossible to see the ants on the fallen leaf clearly.

"This is... a binoculars?"

Fu Zhao's hands are shaking, such an existence and legendary thing is now in his hands!

"It's not as exaggerated as a thousand miles. At most, you can see a thousand meters." Xie Anlan shook his head. Earlier, he planned to see if he could debug a microscope with glass, but he gave up because it was too difficult.

He happened to grind a lot of glass, and tried to make a telescope, which turned out to be okay. Thinking that this thing would be useful for marching and fighting, he brought it to Fu Zhao to see if it could be used.
