"Can you show me some of the strawberries you brought?" Yun Xi asked.

It didn't look like the other party was lying, she wanted to confirm again. What if Concubine Jade lied?

"Okay, please wait a moment, madam." The man bent down and nodded, then turned around and gave instructions to the servants beside him.

About ten minutes later, a man in gray servant clothes ran over panting, holding a plate with six or seven strawberries on it.

"If I understand correctly, when you saw the strawberry, it was almost ripe, right?" Yun Xi grasped the key point through the man's words and looked at the other person for confirmation.

The bearded man scratched his head sheepishly: "Yes."

The envoy glanced at the emperor nervously, worried that the other party would blame him.

In fact, the emperor didn't care about this.

It's just fruit. He doesn't like it in the first place, but these women in the palace want it like crazy.

After the envoy arrived, he immediately arranged for his servants to be assigned to the various concubines. After getting the news that they were very happy, he actually couldn't understand it at all.

Yun Xi picked up a strawberry and asked doubtfully: "Since this is the first time you see it, how do you know this fruit is called strawberry?"

The envoy lowered his head in embarrassment: "We are called Holy Fruit. After arriving in the capital, someone told me that it is called strawberry. So, I changed my name to strawberry."

The more he spoke, the less confident he became.

When he first came to the capital, he was very confident in the tributes he brought.

But when he overheard the servant assigned to him say the name "Strawberry", he became stupid.

If this type of fruit had already been available in the capital, then his tribute this time would be a huge joke. If things go wrong, the king will not give him anything good to eat after he returns.

Yun Xi nodded: "So, these strawberries have been owned by the capital for a long time. You already know that, right?"

The envoy blushed and lowered his head: "I can't help it. This time I came to the capital with only the holy fruit as a tribute. I have to change it temporarily. I can't find anything better, so I have no right."

After speaking, he knelt down in front of the emperor and put his forehead on the ground: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty! We in Liaojiang really did not do this intentionally. This is really the first time we have seen this strawberry, and it is also the first time we have seen this strawberry. I think it is a holy fruit sent from heaven! Our king wants to share the most beautiful things with the emperor, so he ordered me to bring it to your country."

"Get up." The emperor asked someone to help him up. "Since it wasn't intentional, it doesn't matter."

It's just fruit. If he really cared, that would be a joke.

But the other party didn't send any other tributes, only fruits he thought were good things, which really made him feel uncomfortable. It is necessary to increase the tax on the other party.

Yun Xi didn't care even more about the opponent's offensive issues.

She only does what she needs to do.

"Can you please let the person who knows about strawberries come out?" she asked the envoy who was still kneeling on the ground.

"He is in the inn, I'm afraid he can't enter the palace." The envoy smiled flatteringly.

Yun Xi stopped pushing and turned to look at the people around her who were watching the situation on her side: "Everyone, who has ever eaten strawberries from the capital?"

Soon, a nanny next to a woman came out: "Our lady eats it every year. Her friend's house has it."

Yun Xi asked the servant next to him to take one of the strawberries on the plate to him: "Please give it to your wife and let her try it."

As soon as the woman saw the strawberry, she screamed: "Huh? Isn't this the strawberry our wife eats?"

There was silence all around for a moment.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Yu Guiren screamed.

"This strawberry is from Liaojiang, how could it be from the capital?"

She rushed towards the woman, raised her hand and slapped her: "Bitch! Liar! Just open your mouth! How can you have such strawberries at home?!"

The woman's teeth were all knocked out, half of her face was red and swollen, and she screamed excitedly: "Our master has it at home! Our master even grows his own strawberries."

What happened to Mr. Yu? Isn't she relying on the emperor? Apart from the emperor, she had no other backer.

The woman rushed over and scratched the noble man's face. Humph, you stinky bitch! Sticking to the emperor with one face! I see you have lost your face, why are you still blabbering!

The noble man did not expect that the other party would dare to shame him in front of the emperor, and he became angry immediately. There is no need to wait for others, just go on the stage yourself, push the opponent to the ground, bang bang bang, then ride on him and give him a hard thrust.

Yun Xi: "..."

emperor:"……"

other people:"……"

Yun Xi quickly calmed down and acted as if she hadn't seen it. She turned to the emperor and said, "Concubine Rong Chen, please briefly introduce the varieties of strawberries."

The emperor with difficulty diverted his attention away from Concubine Jade: "Okay."

Oh my god, is Imperial Concubine Jade so aggressive? It’s simply unbelievable!

Concubine Yu had always been gentle, gentle, and considerate in front of him. I didn’t expect that she was like this in private! ! ! She looks like a rural shrew!

The emperor couldn't accept it.

Here, Yun Xi took out several varieties of strawberries from his pocket like a magic trick. Neatly arranged on the table in front of you.

The emperor stepped forward curiously: "What are you doing?"

"Your Majesty, there are many varieties of strawberries. I will briefly introduce them:.

1. Zhangji strawberry: The fruit is long cone-shaped, bright in color, sweet in taste, and has a light milk aroma.

2. Red strawberry: The fruit is larger, cone-shaped, dark red in color, hard pulp, and tastes moderately sweet and sour.

3. Tianbao strawberry: The fruit is heart-shaped, bright red in color, rich in fragrance and high in sweetness.

4. Tochiotome strawberry: The fruit is conical in shape, red in color, with fine flesh and sweet taste.

5. Fengxiang strawberry: The fruit is cone-shaped, with a shiny surface, fine and juicy flesh, and a sweet and sour taste. Different varieties of strawberries may have differences in appearance, taste, sweetness, aroma, etc. "

Yun Xi turned to look at the emperor and continued: "The emperor will definitely wonder why he has never appeared in the capital.

“That’s because, first of all, strawberry is a relatively cold-tolerant fruit, but it has certain requirements for temperature.

Generally speaking, the suitable temperature range for growing strawberries is between 15-25 degrees Celsius. In the early stages of growth, strawberries require higher temperatures to promote root growth and flower bud differentiation.

When the temperature is 15-20 degrees Celsius, strawberries grow faster and flower buds differentiate more smoothly. During the flowering and fruiting stages, appropriate temperatures can improve pollen viability and fruit development.

When the temperature is 20-25 degrees Celsius, strawberry pollination and fertilization are better, and the fruit can grow better.

It should be noted that strawberries are not resistant to high temperatures. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees Celsius, it will affect the growth and development of strawberries, resulting in smaller fruits and reduced quality.

In addition, during low temperatures in winter, strawberries also need certain protection measures to prevent frost damage.

In the southern region of Liaoning, the climate is relatively warm and humid, and there may be places suitable for growing strawberries. but……"

When Yun Xi said this, she looked at the envoy and then at Concubine Yu next to her who had not stopped being beaten with a bruised nose and face.
