Daming: Zhu Biao was forced to kill his father-in-law at the beginning

On the same day that Ye Cheng decided to dig sweet potatoes.

Lao Zhu brought this Queen Ma over as well.

Very casual.

Lao Zhu found a sweet potato and dug it out himself.

What is surprising is that more than a dozen sweet potatoes of all sizes were brought out.

Weigh one on the scale.

It weighed more than a dozen pounds.

Lao Zhu was overjoyed.

Personally stared at Ye Cheng and instructed the handymen to dig sweet potatoes.

When digging out about an acre of land, Lao Zhu immediately asked people to start weighing it again, and it actually weighed almost 8,000 catties.

Even if you lose some water after storing it for a period of time, you can produce six or seven thousand catties of one acre of land.

It's so prolific!

Lao Zhu and Queen Ma were full of praise.

"Your Majesty!" Ye Cheng said: "The land where we grow sweet potatoes is good land, irrigation is timely, and there is a lot of fertilizer, if you put it in the hills and mountains of Qin and Jin, I am afraid that the yield will not be so high, but there should be two or three thousand catties of mu yield!"

"Two or three thousand catties is a lot!" Queen Ma said: "If the second and third fiefdoms are planted with this, it will be a terrible thing!"

"Yes!" Lao Zhu also said: "If that time really comes, maybe there will no longer be a need to transport a large amount of grain to the northwest, and our battle with the Northern Yuan will be easy to fight!"

Lao Zhu did not hesitate to praise Ye Cheng, saying that he had made a great contribution to the Ming Dynasty by cultivating sweet potatoes, and he should be praised!

Lao Zhu and Queen Ma left.

Ye Cheng asked people to dig sweet potatoes again, dry them a little, dig a nearby cellar and bury them, and wait for the next spring to plant them.

In the south, you can grow three crops a year!

For a few days.

Lao Zhu Du went outside the city to observe the process of harvesting sweet potatoes.

He was even a little listless when he went to court.

At last.

Hu Weiyong couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty has been absent-minded for many days, but has something happened?"

Lao Zhu was in a good mood, and he didn't hide it, and told the news of the successful cultivation of sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes have a high yield of seven or eight thousand catties per mu.

This is all what Lao Zhu has seen with his own eyes, and it is sonorous and powerful.

The courtiers suddenly fryed.

After repeatedly making sure that Lao Zhu was not joking, they began to talk about it.

Lao Zhu asked the ministers to be silent.

He told the origin of the sweet potato.

learned that this sweet potato was found in the Chang family, and Lao Zhu also said that he saw Xiangrui, and everyone believed it.

Maybe.

Sweet potatoes are the best gift from God to the Ming Dynasty.

After the dispersal of the dynasty.

Three, three, two, two.

The ministers all went to Chang's house.

Lao Zhu said that sweet potatoes were discovered and cultivated by Ye Cheng, and many people wanted to know more about the details.

What is there to say about the process of discovering sweet potatoes.

Ye Cheng sent a group of ministers in just a few words.

was impatient, but heard Yun Niang's eyes light up and said: "Childe, those ministers came with gifts and gave us a lot of ginseng!".

Ye Cheng suddenly became energetic.

When the minister came over, he was not annoyed, and told them very carefully about the process of discovering sweet potatoes.

Ye Cheng's description is still very objective.

But.

This

is not the case when the news reaches the storytellers in the capital.

In the mouth of the storyteller, Ye Cheng found that the sweet potato did see Xiangrui that day.

It is said that there is a nose and an eye.

At that time, when Ye Cheng saw the sweet potato, a golden light was revealed from the cart where the sweet potato was stored, and Ye Cheng heard the voice of the dragon in his head, telling him that sweet potatoes are high-yielding things, and also told him how to grow them.

When the voice disappeared, Ye Cheng saw a huge five-clawed golden dragon flying over the sky, flying directly towards the East China Sea.

Fengtian Temple.

Lao Zhu also heard the storyteller's version in Mao Xiang's mouth.

He snorted coldly and said, "Isn't this a lie? How can it be as amazing as they say? If there is a divine dragon, why don't others see it!"

"It's groundless, it may not be groundless!" Mao Xiang hesitated and said: "Your Majesty asked me to investigate the soldiers who sent the sweet potatoes to see if they had done anything else to damage the sweet potatoes, I inquired about a very interesting situation, at that time, Ye Cheng was really stunned for a long time when he found the sweet potatoes, and stood in the kitchen silently for a long time, everyone thought he was crazy, and then ...... , and then Ye Chengcheng learned the sweet potato planting technique, and he can also tell the origin of the sweet potato, he said that he saw it from an ancient book, but I went to a lot of Confucians to inquire, and no one has heard of this kind of ancient book!".

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused.

Could it be God?

It's really a blessing from heaven that the planting method of sweet potatoes can't be achieved

The

success of sweet potatoes, a high-yielding crop, is a big deal.

To be placed before.

Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang must discuss it first, and give a consensus when Lao Zhu asks.

It's just that.

This time none of them went to anyone.

There is a rift between the two.

The matter of Chen Han is over.

Although they were not implicated, the two became suspicious of each other.

Everyone is afraid that the other party will go to the emperor to accuse themselves.

And.

Even if the Yin of Shuntian Mansion and the Criminal Department both made a judgment that Chen Han committed suicide, Li Shanchang did not believe it, he thought that Hu Weiyong killed him in order to keep it secret and not give Chen Han the opportunity to testify against him.

Hu Weiyong is such a ruthless and vicious person.

How could Li Shanchang not be on guard everywhere.

The two of them praised the role of sweet potatoes on their respective tables, boasting that Lao Zhu is a wise man through the ages, otherwise how can sweet potatoes be auspicious if they don't go to the sky!

Although Lao Zhu understands very well that the two guys may not really cater to him, it is comfortable to listen to them patting on the back.

Handle the sweet potatoes well.

Ye Cheng received the "Collection of Grievances" compiled by King Zhou, and it was clearly written on the title page that the author of this book was a criminal officer named Song Ci in the Song Dynasty, and the narrator was Ye Cheng, and King Zhou was just a record.

"Ye Cheng, I want to call this book to the Criminal Department and the magistrates from all over the country, can you read it?" Ye Cheng nodded and said: "Of course you can, let me help review it, if there is nothing wrong, it can be published!"

Ye Cheng said: "Actually, this is just my own understanding of forensics, if there is any mistake found in the process of use, it must be corrected in time!"

"That's for sure!" said King Zhou, "I have already told the Criminal Department so!".

"There is another thing, I am going to write a book called "Materia Medica", which records other edible plants in addition to the current few conventional crops, and I am going to write sweet potatoes into it, and describe it in detail as the first famine relief crop!" King Zhou said again: "Do you think it is possible?"

"Of course you can!" Ye Cheng said: "This can also speed up the promotion of sweet potatoes!".

King Zhou is overjoyed!
