After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win
Chapter 51: Not Attending the Morning Court
However, due to the disaster this year, the emperor ordered the entire palace to reduce spending, and the New Year's banquet was also kept low-key.
Ten days later, a few days before the palace banquet, Qin Yan discovered that the potatoes on his farm were ripe and he immediately reported it to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, these are the seeds I brought back from the outer reaches of the Great Wall. They are called potatoes. I started planting them when I came back. They have only recently matured. I brought them here especially for Your Majesty."
The emperor looked at the food on the plate, a little shocked. "You said this lumps of earth called potatoes are edible? But you said you planted them when you came back, and they're already mature in just three months?"
Qin Yan: "Yes, Your Majesty, this potato is rich in starch, protein, and vitamin C, which can replenish most of the body's energy. It has the same nutritional value as rice and paddy, and the advantage of potatoes is that they have a high yield and are very filling. Basically, one potato is enough for a day's food."
The emperor looked distrustful and asked casually: "Oh? That's really good, but you said the potato yield is high, how long will it take?"
Originally, the emperor thought that the planting time was short and not much could be grown, so he asked casually, but the result still shocked him.
Qin Yan: "Your Majesty, under normal circumstances, the yield of potatoes is about 2,000 to 5,000 kilograms per mu. If the soil is fertile and fertilized regularly, the yield can reach 8,000 kilograms per mu."
The emperor was shocked and said, "Eight thousand kilograms of grain! The highest yield of the people in my dynasty is only two hundred kilograms per mu of land, and yours is at least two thousand kilograms. Are you lying to me?"
Qin Yan saw the emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at him, as if a cold wind was blowing, Qin Yan shuddered, and quickly stated his position, "Your Majesty, I dare not do that. This is what I planted on the farm and it matured. I showed it to Your Majesty because I was afraid that Your Majesty would not believe me."
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can send someone to go with me and see for yourself. Then you will know that everything I say is true."
The emperor was also overwhelmed by the thousands of kilograms of grain. The fact that Qin Yan dared to come and tell him about this matter showed that he was confident and it was impossible for him to make up stories without any basis. His family was still in the capital, unless he wanted his family to be buried with him.
Emperor: "Okay, I trust you, you can get up. How many kilograms of potatoes do you have for the people to plant again?"
Qin Yan stood up and answered: "I have planted a piece of land, about ten acres, and there are probably thirty or forty thousand kilograms of grain. It only takes a small piece of it to be planted after processing. It is very easy to raise."
When the emperor heard that there were 30,000 to 40,000 kilograms of grain, he was so happy that he laughed out loud. This grain could not only be used as seeds but also be eaten. It immediately solved his urgent problem.
He laughed loudly, "Okay, okay, Qin boy, you have done a great deed this time. Now, tell me if there is anything you want. I can give it to you."
Qin Yan immediately became happy and said in a flattering tone: "Your Majesty, I don't want anything. It is my honor to share your worries and benefit the people. But I have a small request, and I hope your Majesty can agree to it. Hehe."
The emperor was in high spirits and did not blame him. He agreed in a good mood and said, "Go ahead."
Qin Yan straightened his attitude and said, "Well, can I apply to not attend the morning court on weekdays? Your Majesty, I am just a county boy, not a high-ranking official, so I don't need to attend the court before dawn every day. Of course, if Your Majesty needs me, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
The emperor thought about it and decided that it was not a big deal. Normally, there was nothing big going on during court sessions. If there was a big deal, he could just call him over.
After thinking it through, he waved his hand and said, "I agree. Go down and take some people to transport all your potatoes over."
Qin Yan was very happy to hear that he didn't need to attend the morning court. He was full of motivation and said in a high-spirited tone, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will go back and deliver the potatoes to the people. Don't worry, I will write down the planting method and hand it over."
The emperor was very satisfied with Qin Yan's self-awareness, "Well, you can go down, and remember to attend the palace banquet the day after tomorrow."
"Yes, I will definitely arrive on time with my family. I'll take my leave." Qin Yan took his leave and led the people sent by the emperor to the farm.
Qin Yan stayed under the tree, sitting on a stool and watching them carry carts of potatoes.
Qin Yan stayed for a while and then went home, but he was still transporting the goods when he left. It took him two days to transport them back and forth.
As soon as Qin Yan got home, he hugged Jiang Zhi tightly and kept telling her what happened today.
Jiang Zhi was relieved to hear that the problem of the disaster victims had been solved. As a person of the new era, she really couldn't bear to watch her compatriots die helplessly.
However, Qin Yan was most excited when he said that he didn't have to attend the morning court. Jiang Zhi understood that it was really too early.
There were several times when Qin Yan didn't do it because he had to get up early. He was really afraid that his body would collapse at such a young age.
As a result, I never had fun every time, and I didn't dare to continue making trouble. I felt so depressed during that period.
Qin Yan seemed to have a tacit understanding with Jiang Zhi. He raised his eyebrows and whispered into Jiang Zhi's ear: "Wife, I don't have to go to the morning court tomorrow. I have plenty of time tonight. Let's try the new position I learned. Just put your legs sideways... um... um..."
Jiang Zhi couldn't stand it anymore and quickly covered the man who said everything. He was so shameless.
She patted his shoulder in annoyance and said, "Why do you tell everything to others? What if someone hears it?"
Qin Yan held the hand covering his mouth, put it to his mouth and kissed it, then said: "Okay, okay, don't say it, then I will do it directly."
"If you say that again, you'll sleep in the study today." Jiang Zhi could hardly bear this conversation full of innuendos.
Seeing that Jiang Zhi was getting really angry, Qin Yan shut up in time, but the interest in his eyes did not diminish at all.
Qin Yan naturally did not go to the study that night, and Jiang Zhize was in trouble.
Qin Yan first went to the military camp, then Jiang Zhi opened a shop, and later he had to get up early every day to attend court. He was feeling depressed at first, but later he felt dissatisfied.
Today, everything has been recovered. Jiang Zhi finally understands that men really can't hold it in for too long, or someone might die.
Jiang Zhi was put in various positions that night, and Qin Yan made her shout all kinds of embarrassing names while making her feel awkward.
In short, Jiang Zhi's body was eaten clean that night, inside and out, and was left with marks all over, with the worst marks on her neck and lower back.
There are kiss marks and teeth marks on the neck and collarbone, and pinch marks on the lower back.
Jiang Zhi was woken up by thirst in the morning. When she woke up, she was still held by Qin Yan. Thinking about how badly she was bullied, she wanted to kick him hard.
As a result, as soon as I stretched my legs, I felt a soreness on the inside of my thighs, and in the end I only lightly touched Qin Yan's legs.
Qin Yan slept lightly in the morning and woke up as soon as Jiang Zhi moved.
When Qin Yan opened his eyes and saw Jiang Zhi, his face immediately beamed with joy. He tightened his arms around Jiang Zhi and rubbed his head against Jiang Zhi's neck.
