What! The playboy fox is coveted by the jealous god

Chapter 48 The Cold and Tyrant Emperor's Abandoned Concubine 4

In order to maintain her image as a love-brained person, Jiang Wu did not forget to make her presence felt in front of Jun Yu every day even after she was moved to the cold palace.

"Zizhu, the weather is getting hotter, so today we should send over the lotus seed soup, pearl tofu, and diced chicken."

Jiang Wu looked at the dishes sent from the imperial kitchen, pointed to a few dishes on the table that she didn't like, and asked Zizhu to send them to the imperial study.

"Okay, ma'am."

Zizhu quickly packed the dishes into the food boxes she had prepared in advance. From her skillful movements, it was clear that this was not her first time.

"My lady, what are you doing?"

Lu Zhu, who went to collect this month's salary, happened to hear the conversation between the two. For a moment, she didn't know whether she should be happy that her queen finally stopped doing those stupid things or worried about her queen's audacity.

She didn't expect that her queen was so bold that she even dared to lie that the food prepared in the imperial kitchen was made by herself and sent it to the emperor.

As long as I think about this matter being exposed, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor!

Lu Zhu was so scared that her face turned pale. Her brain was working rapidly, and she began to think of ways to make up for it so that Jiang Wu would suffer less punishment.

Zizhu didn't expect Luzhu to come back so soon today. She turned to look at Jiang Wu, who gave her a look and she took the lunch box and went out without hesitation.

Seeing that Lu Zhu had discovered this, Jiang Wu no longer hid it.

The reason why she kept it a secret from Lu Zhu was because that girl was stubborn. If they knew that she was trying to please the emperor in this way, they would definitely keep nagging her. In order to avoid bringing trouble upon herself, Jiang Wu decisively handed the matter over to the bold and careful Zi Zhu.

It has been almost twenty days since they moved to the cold palace, and it is time to stop.

Seeing Luzhu's anxious look, Jiang Wu seemed to be indifferent.

Of course she really didn't care. She knew very well that even if these things were sent to that guy, he wouldn't eat them. He would either give them to his subordinates or throw them away directly. Why would she bother eating them herself?

If she wasn't afraid that the sudden change would be too great and make the people around her notice something strange, she wouldn't even want to pretend.

After playing for a while, she is about to start her own mission.

Jiang Wu began to think about how to implement the plan.

From what I can remember, the most recent major event that is about to happen in Junchao is the snowstorm this winter.

At first everyone thought it was just an ordinary snowstorm in winter and no one took it seriously. However, it was not until the blizzard continued for half a month and countless people in the Jun Dynasty died in this snowstorm that everyone realized how devastating this disaster was.

The Jun Dynasty was founded on military power. Although it has also attached importance to agricultural production in recent years, it is ultimately a military power. Even if it has increased its attention and investment in agriculture, there has not been much improvement in a short period of time. The grain produced by the people every year is only enough to fill their stomachs.

However, this sudden heavy snow froze all the crops to death.

There was only a vast expanse of white snow between heaven and earth. Even if someone froze to death on the road, he would disappear under the cover of snow within half a day.

It is a big country with food shortages and has to purchase a lot of food from other countries every year to meet national needs.

Those countries knew about the predicament of the emperor, but instead of lending a helping hand, they took advantage of the situation and raised the price of food by more than three times.

The Jun Dynasty could only suffer in silence, but the snow made transportation difficult and food was delayed in arriving. Local government offices could not provide surplus food. The people ate up all the food at home and had no more food supplies. Countless people starved to death.

After this snowstorm, the Jun Dynasty was severely damaged and it took several years to recover.

As someone who has lived in the socialist era, Jiang Wu deeply understands the importance of having enough food.

So even if it wasn't for the purpose of completing the mission, she also hoped to save countless people of Jun Dynasty.

But now she has a problem. This news was told to her by the system, so she naturally believed it. But if she told other people, they would probably think she was crazy.

After all, it is only the end of spring and still far from winter. Who can predict what will happen in the future?

She could not directly publicize the news she knew, otherwise people would definitely think she was sick; in addition, she did not know martial arts, so she could not pass the news to Jun Yu without anyone knowing, and she could not suddenly and loudly announce the good ideas she knew to benefit the people.

Jiang Wu pinched her chin, frowned her pretty eyebrows, and worried about what she should do.

Hey, got it!

Since she can't say it, she'll just do it!

Just do it.

The next morning, Jiang Wu arrived at Sinong Division.

The capital of Junchao was in the north, and most of the food was wheat-based pasta, with the rest being rice.

She first looked around and basically understood the current agricultural development situation in the Jun Dynasty.

It was just as I remembered, very bad.

The wheat seedlings are growing well, but there are not many ears of wheat on each plant.

The rice seedlings that were cultivated had yellow leaves and crooked roots and stems, looking malnourished.

Sinongsi is the highest point of agricultural affairs in the dynasty. Even the crops here grow like this, so you can imagine what the crops grown by the common people look like.

Jiang Wu also knows that more haste makes waste.

It is definitely impossible to develop high-yield wheat and rice in a short period of time, so Jiang Wu wants to take a two-pronged approach.

Although the technology is backward in this era, she has the system, the strongest assistance. Even if she cannot research special-grade rice and wheat in a short period of time, she knows many grains that can be used as staple foods. As long as she finds them, she can let the people expand the planting area and use the correct planting methods to increase grain production. There will be no problem.

As long as we ensure that the people have enough food reserves, they will not have to worry about not surviving this winter.

Therefore, while Jiang Wu was conducting experiments to increase crop yields, she immediately issued an order to send people to search for things that could be used as alternatives to staple foods throughout the Jun Dynasty.

Although the person who received the order did not know what "potatoes" and "sweet potatoes" were, he had to carry out the order of the imperial concubine.

In the following period of time, Jiang Wu devoted all her energy to the Sino-Agriculture Department, determined to produce a new batch of high-yield grain seedlings. Her blood was boiling, and she threw her love-brained personality to the winds.

Since Jiang Wu had rarely acted up during this period, the secret guards who had been monitoring her were surprised. Could it be that they were wrong, and that the imperial concubine had really turned over a new leaf?

It was customary to report Jiang Wu's situation to the emperor, and the person sitting in the regency did not think there was anything wrong with it.

Jun Yu already knew that there was a new person in Jiang Wu's body, but he didn't know what that woman's purpose was.

Now that he knew that she was in the Ministry of Agriculture every day, he was worried that this woman was a spy sent by the enemy country, who wanted to defeat the dynasty through agricultural work.

This matter concerns the people's livelihood and the foundation of the country, and cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, Jun Yu increased the number of secret guards for surveillance and paid close attention to Jiang Wu's every move day and night.

Although Jiang Wu has no martial arts skills, she is very sensitive to strange auras.

So Jiang Wu had known for a long time that there were people around her, and she also knew that they were sent by the emperor. As long as they had no ill will towards her, she would not care.

She devoted herself to studying rice and wheat. If Luzhu and the others hadn't tried their best to dissuade her, she would probably have moved here to live.

Hard work pays off. On a quiet morning, a burst of devilish laughter suddenly came from the Sinong Division.

"hahahahahahahahahaha……"
