Holding an ordinary script, pretending to be a god in various worlds
Chapter 199 Gift
"System, what gift should we give?"
His eyes sparkled as he said, "This is easy. I'll give you the elixir! Cure Queen Ma's illness right away."
The system channels are not very willing to buy those cheap products with slow effects because the profit is too small. Every time, you have to beg humbly before they are willing.
"Listen to you."
……
On the day of the Thousand Years Festival.
The city of Nanjing was decorated with lights everywhere and was brightly lit. The clerks distributed wine and meat to the people. Every household received a pot of wine and half a pound of meat.
The people who received the gifts were all smiling and saying a few blessings. The children even had malt candy to eat and ran around the adults' legs in surprise.
An old man sighed, "This emperor is a little fierce, but he is a good emperor!" and people around him echoed his words.
That’s right, in their minds, as long as he gives you free food and drink, you are a good emperor.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not hear his people's praise for him, as he was entertaining his distinguished guest, Princess Nongyu.
"It's the Queen's birthday. As a guest here, it would be rude of me to present a gift at this time."
As she spoke, Nanyue stretched out her slender white hand, and a roll of parchment appeared out of thin air. When she unfolded it, she saw that it was covered with various plants and there were small notes next to it.
The parchment is as light as a cicada's wing. It looks like a small roll but when it is unfolded, it seems to have no end.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a quick look and recognized several familiar plants, including wheat, rice, cotton, etc.
His heart skipped a beat and he looked back quickly, recognizing several vegetables and some hemostatic herbs.
There were many plants, and Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't recognize them at all after a quick glance. His heart was beating like a drum, and he had a guess:
"Your Highness's gift, could it be that it contains a record of all the plants in the world?"
Nanyue smiled and shook her head slightly. Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely disappointed. It was indeed impossible for him to get such a big advantage.
Then I heard:
“There are more than thousands of plants in the world, and it is impossible to record them all.
This is a leisure work left by a Taoist friend of mine who walks the path of plants and trees. It records the plants she has encountered, about three thousand kinds. "
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were as bright as those of the wolves in the Western Hills.
Due to the underdeveloped information, it is difficult to let people in other places know about useful crops or herbs discovered in one place.
This leather scroll, which can be regarded as a complete encyclopedia of plants, was priceless to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.
He rubbed his hands and pretended to shirk: "How can I do this?"
Nong Yu continued sincerely:
"There are many useful plants in this scroll. They will not be of any use if they are left in the hands of a mere soul like me. Giving them to Your Majesty as a gift will be the best way to achieve their purpose."
Zhu Yuanzhang agreed willingly, and seeing Nanyue so moved, he hurriedly put the scroll away.
Oh, if only Liu Xian could be as selfless and gentle as Princess Nanyue.
Seeing him accept the scroll, Nanyue left. This gift was a spontaneous act on her part.
After analysis, the super-intelligent ghost Jinghuan felt that in order to further improve the relationship with the royal family, this gift should be given!
Of course, it didn't cost any money. As the lord of the Sea of Love, Jinghuan was fond of collecting all kinds of exotic flowers and plants. With tens of millions of years of accumulation, drawing this leather scroll was a piece of cake for him.
After receiving such a good gift, the birthday gifts that various officials racked their brains to offer during the Qianqiu Festival were no longer in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
What’s more, the ministers didn’t dare to send gifts that were too precious. Aren’t they tired of living?
The emperor is sharpening his knives to kill pigs and sheep. Bah, minister, well, the salary I set is only this much, and you can actually afford such an expensive birthday gift.
Tell me, is there corruption?
Zhu Yuanzhang was really capable of doing this.
After the banquet, the princes and princesses, led by the crown prince, came forward one by one and presented their gifts in a unique way.
Now it was the ministers' turn to toast and congratulate - their gifts had already been given to the eunuchs.
Empress Ma seemed to be searching for something below. The Emperor noticed it and gave her a questioning look.
She responded in a low voice: "Didn't Liu Xian say she would come? Why hasn't she arrived yet?"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, felt aching and angry. He suffered a great loss the last time they met.
Moreover, the temperament of this white snake fairy is strange and unpredictable, so it is possible that it may come and not come.
He was about to comfort the queen when his eyes blurred.
Suddenly, the "person" just mentioned appeared next to the Queen's seat.
It seems like there is no problem, but etiquette puts hierarchy first, so how can there be a seat next to the queen!
Moreover, there were signs that the wine and food on it had been touched. Liu Xian was still holding a wine jug and pouring wine into the jade cup. Even Bai Suzhen was peeling walnuts with a crunching sound.
When did she come, how long had she been here, and why did she only show up now? A series of questions bombarded Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.
It's terrifying to have someone sitting next to you silently, moving freely, and you don't even notice it.
Zhu Yuanzhang broke out in a cold sweat, and the people below also noticed the abnormality and gasped after noticing it.
Together, they formed a clearly audible inhalation sound, the scene was silent, and the music outside became clearer.
Liu Xian supported her head with one hand, as if she had drunk too much. Her cheeks were stained with a slightly drunken red. She looked at Empress Ma obediently:
"Ah, I've been here for a long time. How could I miss your birthday?"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to her disciple and bent her five fingers inward twice. Susu understood and took out a simple little box from her bosom and put it in her hand.
Queen Ma smiled gently: "Liu Xian has been here for a long time, why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I want to hear if anyone says bad things about me." Liu Xian said with a smile.
Hiss, the people below were even more terrified, what's going on, you are a demon fairy, how can you be so narrow-minded?
They tried desperately to recall whether they had "accidentally" said anything bad about Liu Xian.
Zhu Yuanzhang also came back to his senses from his surprise, laughed awkwardly and joined the conversation:
"It's been a long time since I last saw you, Liu Xian. You seem to be even more magical. I guess you have made great progress in your cultivation?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes sparkled, Liu Xian was getting stronger and stronger...
"I can't say that my cultivation has improved greatly, but I have made some progress." Liu Xian reluctantly replied to the emperor and handed the small box to Empress Ma:
"Open it and see if my gift is to your liking."
