The identity of the child's father seems unusual

After a few more days, it finally came to the selection day.In the past, those who were qualified to compete for this day were almost already famous merchants in the world.But the merchants still live and die for this. In fact, it is an extremely lucrative job to buy supplies for the royal court.The huge profits in the middle are beyond the imagination of ordinary businesses.All items in the palace are custom-made, even the rouge powder used by ordinary concubines in the palace will not be less profitable.

Originally, the Yi family, no matter the branch or the main family, was only considered as a whole, and it was very rare to get two places.

Under A Si's lobbying, Yucheng's Yijia and Yichengli rarely protested, and they had this quota.However, he did not pay tribute to the best silk from Yucheng branch, but grains that he was not good at at all.

Yijia is engaged in grain trading, but the business is not big, and it is not comparable to other merchants that have been in business for a long time.On the contrary, it is more mature in the operation of other commodities.Most of the things in the palace, such as wine, paper and pens, were purchased by the Yi family.

Therefore, Yi Chengli also doubted his decision, but Ah Si's lobbying made him obey.It's just that Ah Si hasn't shown up for a few days, which made him a little puzzled and no one answered.A Si asked him to find out in advance how to eat and grow those horses and potatoes.In the past few months, he has asked a few experienced farmers to fiddle with it. Although it can be planted, the germination rate is not high. Now there are more than half of those potatoes left.

However, let the chef try to fry it, and the taste is not bad.

It's just far from being as productive as Ah Si said before.The old farmer said that there should be some problems with the planting method and planting time. There is a time for everything. If the season is wrong, nothing can be grown. It will take more time to experiment and you will be able to fully understand it. It can be counted as time. Yi Chengli only It is important to be able to record some of the methods and experiences that have been tested temporarily, and these will be handed in at that time.

Otherwise, if you just pick a basket of things and go up, how can you pass the level.Yi Chengli had also inquired about the droughts and floods in recent years, and the famine in many places. The emperor was most concerned about how to increase crop production to feed the people.If this is the right flattery, then he will be prosperous.

It's just those useless old things. After a few months, I didn't even understand how to plant them. It was going to piss him off.However, there are some projects at last, looking at those pots of green plants, I feel a little comforted in my heart, no matter what, there are some results.Compared with others who are all luxurious and exquisite in gold, jade, silk, fragrant wood and tea, he is really poor and pitiful.

On the day of entering the palace, Jing Zhaoqiu also went.It is impossible to bring the baby into the palace, so the old lady took care of it for a day.This is the first time he has entered the palace, and it is completely different from the feeling of traveling to the Forbidden City in later generations.This is a real step into Jianquezhu Palace.

Glazed tiles, white jade steps.Gold pillars, pearl curtains.The jade removes the Tongting, and the color is beautiful.Feige Liudan, anti-yu industry.Zhu Xi is like blood ointment, and the fairy palace is built of Qiongyu, and every brick and tile is extremely luxurious.Jing Zhaoqiu blinked, stared blankly, and silently estimated the value of each brick.

Finally, I still sigh that the exploiting class is indeed the exploiting class.

However, he was not so envious.If you don't bring it with you when you are born, you don't take it with you when you die. When the money reaches a certain amount, it is just a bunch of numbers.When there are too many, you will be bearish on money instead.

Because, after the ancient emperors ascended to the supreme position, whether it was money, power or lust, they could easily satisfy their desires, and most of them only thought about longevity.

He is naturally not as rich and powerful as the emperor, but in this world, he is also one of the best.He has a happy family, and he has nothing to envy. Moreover, the lifespan in this life is considered a gift from God. Compared with ordinary people, it is really two lives!

With the "beauty" in his arms and the youngest son by his side, Jing Zhaoqiu felt that he was a winner in life.

Jing Zhaoqiu was so distracted for a while, Yi Zhiyu felt something was wrong, and stretched out his hand to shake Jing Zhaoqiu's eyes, but he still didn't come back to his senses.In the end, I had no choice but to call him in a low voice: "Zhaoqiu?"

"Ah!" Jing Zhaoqiu came back to his senses, and Yi Zhiyu's face was pressed against his eyes, only one centimeter long.With such a sudden closeness, even the fine white fluff on the face can be clearly seen.He covered his heart, and pushed Yi Zhiyu away a foot.Well, this "beauty" is too big for him.

The seats reserved on the high platform should belong to the emperor, but the strange thing is that there are two chairs placed one seat shorter on both sides of the emperor's majesty.It wasn't until he was seated that Jing Zhaoqiu saw the picture on the left. There was a boy in his teens sitting there, wearing a light yellow auspicious suit with four-clawed golden dragons embroidered on it, a gold and jade belt around his waist, decorated with pearls.

Jing Zhaoqiu immediately realized that it was the prince.Unexpectedly, the emperor looked very young, and he had a ten-year-old son.He turned his head and whispered to Yi Zhiyu.Yi Zhiyu asked with a smile, how old do you think the emperor is?

Jing Zhaoqiu blushed.Yi Zhiyu told him that he was similar to him, 28l[-].Jing Zhaoqiu stared at Yi Zhiyu with wide eyes: "It's not too early to have a son in his teens. But you, who are about the same age, the emperor's son will be able to marry a wife, and you are too slow. "

Jing Zhaoqiu knew that what he said was extremely unreasonable.It's not too late for Yi Zhiyu, but it's not his turn to do anything.

Yi Zhiyu asked back, "Could it be that you want me to have someone else first?"

"Of course not." Jing Zhaoqiu said immediately.Just kidding, everyone is his, and you want someone else?Let's have a big dream of Spring and Autumn.

Yi Zhiyu laughed, his eyes glowed like a starry sky.

"I'm slow to wait for you."

Jing Zhaoqiu was dazzled, so he turned his head, not looking at Yi Zhiyu, but only looking at the front of the stage.Then it was Yi Chengli's turn.He kept staring nervously at the people in front of him, secretly watching the emperor's face from time to time.After observing his words and expressions, he could see that the emperor was not very satisfied.Although in Yi Chengli's eyes, those silk and porcelain were already so exquisite that they could be called works of art, but the emperor kept his face tense.

Until someone pays tribute to the best green japonica rice.But after opening the basket, the emperor's expression didn't improve when he saw the pearls, round jade, and crystal clear rice. He heard the rice offerer talking eloquently, saying that the rice was sweet and precious, and it only grew in one county. There are only a few stone offerings each year.

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help interrupting, his face was frozen.

"There are only so few offerings in a year, which is really precious."

The merchant suddenly saw the emperor's cold face, and was blinded by fright. He didn't know what he had done wrong, panicked, and quickly explained: "Although the production is small, the whole county grows it, and the palace's supply is definitely more than enough."

"The county only grows this kind of rice, so what do other people eat?"

The merchant was taken aback again.This, this, this... This was originally used as a tribute to the imperial palace, it doesn't matter if other people eat or not.The emperor is really strange.Could it be that the palace still uses ordinary rice?Ordinary people naturally have the miscellaneous grains that ordinary people eat, so how can it be the same.

The emperor waved his hand and let the stunned merchant go ahead.

Wen Xiu'er stood behind Concubine Yi and didn't have a chance to sit down. Seeing Concubine Yi sitting leisurely on a chair drinking tea, she felt envious.But she can only stand!

Although she entered the palace, the emperor never came to visit her once. She was so angry that Wen Xiu'er had several bumps on her forehead, and the imperial physician prescribed a few decoctions to clear away the heat and relieve the fire.Wen Xiu'er became jealous of this incident, thinking that Concubine Yi must be upset that she entered the palace on her own initiative, so she slandered her by blowing pillow wind in front of the emperor, which ruined her impression.

But she only dared to think about this in her heart, but she never dared to say it out loud, so Concubine Yi was able to sit down, but she could only stand behind Concubine Yi, and she didn't know how unfair she was.

Concubine Yi is so shrewd, she can climb to the position of concubine here, but she doesn't know what little Wen Xiuer is.Heh, I can't figure it out, and I still want to be favored.She finally understood that it was enough for the emperor to have such a prince, unless he met some astonishing person who would make his heart move, otherwise the others would always be just decorations.

But it doesn't matter.As long as her current status is the highest among the three thousand beauties in the harem, it will be better than not pampering at all.What's more, what's wrong with being a Xieyu flower that can understand the mind?

They, the emperor, would be lying if they said that they didn't have an affair with their children.But in his heart, family, country and the world are far more important than arrogance and luxury.

I'm afraid everyone is thinking in their hearts, what kind of lies the emperor is doing.This is an imperial merchant, and all the tributes are used by the imperial palace. Isn't it fine and fine?Is it possible that you really want to suddenly start to be simple?It's just superficial.

Concubine Yi smiled, who knows?

The emperor's mind, if you guess wrong, it must be bad, and if you guess right, it is not necessarily good.However, before the emperor said it, Concubine Yi had already reduced her share in the palace by one. She didn't choose spices and rouge from the expensive ones. She cut down more than half of the dishes in each meal, and only became four dishes, one soup plus one. For dessert, I don't wear too delicate clothes, and I don't wear much pearls and hairpins on my head, only a simple silver hairpin.

Has the emperor ever said that whether you will be praised or not is secondary, the important thing is to let him see that you have performed well.

Cousin said before that although the harvest in Kyoto is good this year, if you go south if there is waterlogging, and if you go north if there is drought, it is a time when the treasury is empty.Just like before, Yi Zhiyu and Jing Zhaoqiu mixed up with the refugees to go to Xinyang City. A large number of the refugees had encountered disasters and had no place to eat and no food to eat.

Therefore, on this occasion, it is natural for the palace to take exemplary actions to show compassion for all people in the world.

To increase income and reduce expenditure, a large amount of food and grain is the most important thing.Therefore, this time, he has actually released the news in advance. If someone has a heart, he will naturally know what he likes, but there are some smart people who think that no matter how he goes outside, there will be starvation, and the palace will be full of clothes and food.

The emperor thought that what he saw today would be unconscious, so he was not interested, and waited for Yi Zhiyu to say that he would surprise him.Yi Zhiyu is a smart person who understands his thoughts very well. He can't be like these fools who only know how to flatter and flatter, but they can't even flatter him!

Unexpectedly, when Yi Chengli came out, he brought something different.The emperor became interested, so he sat up straight unconsciously, leaning forward slightly in order to see clearly.

What Yi Chengli brought up was something they had never seen before.A basket of khaki oval balls, some big and some small, the big ones are as big as an adult's fist, and the small ones are only the size of a quail egg.In addition to these, there are also several pots of pottery pots with green plants.

The emperor became interested and asked, "What is this?" He had a little impression of this person, and the Yi family wanted two places this year.The emperor didn't care and gave it directly.

Yi Chengli bowed deeply: "Return to the emperor, this is a potato."

Jing Zhaoqiu's face turned green immediately.Wow, potatoes, he instantly thought of a hundred and one ways to use potatoes.Unexpectedly, this kid paid tribute to it!

Jing Zhaoqiu gave Yi Zhiyu Bibi a thumbs up and whispered, "That's delicious."

Yi Zhiyu's gaze deepened, and he immediately turned his head and nodded to Jing Zhaoqiu, saying confidently, "I understand."

Jing Zhaoqiu: "..." Understand?

What do you understand?I just said that, what does it mean that I have something special, tell me, what do you understand?
