Chapter 395

"Xiao Yuchi, can this be eaten?"

After all, Li Er picked up the corn cob, looked it up curiously, and took a demonstrative bite.

Click!Click!
The corncobs are crunchy, and Li Er eats them with relish!
"Your Majesty, is the corncob delicious?"

Yuchihuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva in disbelief, dumbfounded.

Damn it, the mighty Emperor of the Tang Dynasty even ate corn cobs!

However, there is methane hidden in the corn cob, which is the raw material for making biofuels!People in later generations generally use the threshed corncobs as firewood!
"This corn cob tastes like Tianzhu sugarcane, crunchy and delicious!"

Seeing how delicious Li Er's food was, Yu Chihuan would suspect that what he ate was delicacies from mountains and seas.

"Seeing that the halazi is about to flow out, here, eat whatever you want, there are still a lot over there!"

Li Er generously handed a corncob to Yuchihuan.

The corn on the top was gnawed clean, I don't know whose saliva was stained...

I can really thank you!

Yuchihuan took it with a black face, looking at the corncob with a sad face, not knowing what to say.

Under Li Er's earnest eyes, Yu Chihuan gritted his teeth and took a bite, and immediately suffered inhuman treatment.

"Your Majesty, this corn cob is quite... good for your teeth!"

Yu Chihuan clutched his cheeks and took out the corn cob with an awkward smile.

If you can't eat it, you can't eat it hard, and you will easily get upset. This is the truth that our ancestors told us.

Li Er pointed at Yuchi Huan and said, "Xiao Yuchi, you gave the corn to Chang Shan, and you didn't know that corn cobs could be eaten, I despise you!"

Yu Chihuan was speechless, no one in later generations ate corncobs, Li Er was considered a foreign object lover!
After Li Er finished eating the corn cobs, he started talking to Yuchi Huan about business!
"Xiao Yuchi, since you have a thousand stones of corn seeds in your hand, then hand them over to the Shaofu!"

Li Er is determined to get corn seeds.

Yu Chihuan had already left some corn seeds for the family today, so he replied without hesitation: "I have no objection!"

Corn seeds will only be promoted to the states and counties of Datang in Li's second store.

Because this world belongs to Li Er, no one cares more about the people's rations than him!

In ancient times, ordinary people could live without clothes and shelter, but they could not live without food, otherwise it would lead to civil uprisings!

Li Er's ability to utter the famous saying "Water can carry a boat can also overturn it" is enough to show that he loves the people like a son!

"Little Yuchi, you give the corn seeds to Shaofu now!"

Li Er waved his hand and sent Yu Chihuan away.

"My minister complies with the order!" Yu Chihuan left the imperial study room after finishing speaking.

Li Er watched Yuchi Huan walk out of the imperial study, and then said: "I want to take away the corn seeds in Xiao Yuchi's hand, will he blame me?"

The prince shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, according to what I know about Mr. Yuchi, he must have more than a thousand stones of corn seeds!"

Li Er nodded and said: "That's right, I thought the same way, that's why I asked him for a thousand stones of corn seeds, I'm not smart!"

Next, Li Er continued to correct the memorial in the imperial study.

……

Taiji Palace, Shaofu!

After a stick of incense was not available, Yu Chihuan walked to the Shaofu.

Xu Jingzong, the governor of the Shaofu, heard that Yuchihuan was coming, and immediately ran back to greet him!

"Young Prime Minister Yuchi, why did you come to the Shaofu today?"

Xu Jingzong's face was full of panic, thinking that Yu Chihuan had come to trouble him.

Yu Chihuan patted Xu Jingzong's shoulder and said, "Xu Jingzong, Your Majesty ordered me to hand over the corn seeds to the Shaofu for planting. Take me to the seed granary!"

Xu Jingzong was puzzled and said, "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, what are corn seeds?"

Yu Chihuan took out a piece of corn and handed it to Xu Jingzong, saying: "Xu Jingzong, this is corn, you have a taste!"

Xu Jingzong stared at the corn with his eyes shining brightly.

"Golden and translucent, it is a good thing at first glance!"

After that, Xu Jingzong grabbed the corn and started to bite. His mouth was instantly filled with corn syrup, and he devoured it.

In less than half a stick of incense, Xu Jingzong ate up the corn!
"It's delicious, this corn is sweet and delicious, very good!"

Xu Jingzong spoke highly of corn.

Common people in the Tang Dynasty rarely have the opportunity to eat sugar, and the sweet and delicious corn is a good sugar supplement!

Datang's sugar mainly comes from Tianzhu thousands of miles away!

Sugar was considered a luxury in the Tang Dynasty, and Xu Jingzong was not willing to buy it.

That's why Xu Jingzong likes to eat raw corn so much.

Yu Chihuan said seriously: "Xu Jingzong, it's spring plowing time, you should plant the corn seeds I gave you as soon as possible!"

"Subordinate to obey!"

Xu Jingzong didn't dare to neglect, and immediately took Yuchihuan to the seed granary in Shaofu.

Yuchihuan found an empty granary and dumped a thousand stones of corn seeds into it.

In addition, Yuchi Huan, a thousand stones of corn, is going to keep it for himself!
Anyway, Datang is not short of food now, so there is no need for Yuchihuan to give away his last bit of corn.

Yuchihuan also wrote down the method of planting corn and handed it to Xu Jingzong.

In the future, Shaofu only needs to plant corn seeds according to Yuchihuan's instructions!

After a stick of incense, Yu Chihuan was about to leave the Shaofu.

"Xu Jingzong, corn seeds are new to Tang Dynasty, you need to send government officials to guard them!"

Yu Chihuan seriously reminded Xu Jingzong, don't let someone steal the corn seeds carelessly!
Xu Jingzong nodded and said in agreement: "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, please rest assured, after I get down from office, I will send a yamen servant to focus on guarding the cornfields!"

Yu Chihuan said with satisfaction: "Xu Jingzong, don't let me find out that you are guarding yourself, or I will punish you severely!"

Xu Jingzong panicked and said, "I dare not!"

Soon, Yu Chihuan's figure disappeared from Xu Jingzong's eyes.

"Come here, immediately transport the corn seeds to Shanglin Garden for planting!"

Xu Jingzong acted swiftly and resolutely, and he prioritized the things arranged by Yu Chihuan!

"Here!"

The servants of the Shaofu immediately took action.

In less than half an hour, a hundred carriages filled with corn seeds left Shaofu and headed for Shanglinyuan Royal Garden!
Xu Jingzong then took a carriage to Shanglin Garden, where he wanted to personally supervise the farmers planting corn!

……

Tai Chi Palace, Ganlu Palace!
In the evening, Empress Changsun came to Ganlu Hall to accompany Li Er for dinner.

While eating, Li Er said: "Guanyin maidservant, did Chang Shan send you corn today?"

Empress Changsun smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Chang Shan sent seven pieces of corn to my concubine to eat today!"

Li Er sighed and said, "Guanyin maidservant, those seven pieces of corn you ate belonged to me!"

"Your Majesty, what's going on?"

Empress Changsun stared at Li Er as if she was curious about the baby.

"I learned that the corn was sent by Xiao Yuchi, so I summoned Xiao Yuchi, but Chang Shan became furious and took away the seven pieces of corn that were given to me..."

Li Er didn't dare to hide the truth from his eldest grandson, so he had to tell the truth!
Empress Changsun couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Your Majesty, Xiao Yuchi's gift to Chang Shan is no different from giving it to you. You are too impatient today!"

"I really acted too hastily today, I shouldn't have summoned Xiao Yuchi in front of Chang Shan!"

Li Er regretted it!

Empress Changsun sat aside and watched Li Er's jokes. She thought Li Er was too cute today.
