Space peasant girl: madly criticizing Xianggong for being weak and bullying

The emperor had listened to nonsense all morning, and now he lacked good news to wash his ears: "Please tell me, Mr. Shen."

Shen Xiang cleared his throat: "Your Majesty, do you know that the girl from the Xiao family is also in the border town?"

I heard about it a while ago, and the emperor nodded: "I also heard that she was doing nothing to farm and play there."

Children are ignorant, thinking that farming is just digging a hole and burying it with soil.

Master Xie also resolutely began to mock: "Ha, this girl of the Xiao family is too ignorant of her heights, isn't she? If border gates can grow something, will it still cause such a headache?"

"The child is ignorant. Could it be that the adults there are also ignorant, so they just let her mess around?"

"When is this, and it's a waste of money..."

As long as you talk a lot of nonsense, Shen Xiang said calmly and clearly: "She grew out."

"I knew it, of course she...she what? Planted? Planted, planted what?"

Mr. Xie was obviously very frightened, the last sentence was broken.

Shen Xiang likes to see them look like they have never seen the world. At this moment, he has selectively forgotten his reaction when he first saw the watermelon, and told the emperor calmly.

"That's right, that girl is really capable. She actually grew crops in the border town, and they were melons and fruits with sufficient water. A few days ago, she asked the people from Li's shop to bring some back. The taste was very sweet. "

The emperor's eyes fell directly on him, and Master Xie reacted faster: "Impossible!"

Shen Xiang rolled his eyes: "I know that you ignorant people can't understand things beyond your own understanding, so when I came to court today, I specially brought one, Your Majesty, minister..."

The emperor waved his hand: "Present."

It was the first time that the big green striped watermelon appeared in front of the emperor. It was not nervous, but the emperor was very excited. In order not to lose his majesty in front of the officials, he suppressed his curiosity and asked Mr. De to cut the melon.

As soon as the knife fell, the bright red soil sunspots immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Shen Xiangtou cut a large piece for himself, opened his mouth and bit it, moved his mouth a few times, and spit out the melon seeds.

"Girl Xiaoxiao said, this is a seed, it's best not to swallow it."

As he spoke, the scent of melon overflowed.

A melon that was not too big was divided up in an instant, and the emperor only ate a small bite for the sake of face, and he was a little bit unsatisfied. Fortunately, after he came down to court, Eunuch De told him that Prime Minister Shen hadn't left yet, and that he had something to give to His Majesty.

The emperor set up a posture to let people in, and when he saw the melon in his arms, which was obviously bigger than the one just now, he immediately felt better, a veteran is a veteran, sensible!

"Your Majesty, Xiaoxiao's girl not only planted this melon and fruit, but also planted potatoes, peanuts and other crops on the land she improved, and some fruits and trees will take more time."

The emperor held the melon, very curious: "I have never seen this thing before, where did she come from?"

"This girl Xiao's mother, Xiao Ran used to like to collect all kinds of weird things. She is even more so than Xiao Ran. When she sees seeds she doesn't know, she likes to collect and plant them for fun. It is said that when she was still in Fuyuan Village, From time to time, she took the opportunity to run to Dayan Mountain, but she scared her adoptive parents enough..."

"As for the relatively common things like peanuts and potatoes, that girl seems to have grown them from a field that was transformed and fattened up. Seeing that it works, she plans to keep trying."

The emperor nodded: "It's a pity that after months of hard work, only a small piece of land has been planted."

Shen Xiang didn't think so: "Your Majesty, a single spark can start a prairie fire. Besides, even if it is slow, it is better than doing nothing. At least this success has given many people hope."

Seeing that the fire was almost ready, Prime Minister Shen said again: "Your Majesty, you can see that melons can grow at the border, maybe we can really grow food in the future. The problem of food and grass in the city over there is no longer a problem."

"In addition to the new rice seeds, we can beat back any foreign invasions in the future!"

The emperor glanced at him, but without saying a word, Prime Minister Shen followed along and said, "Now that the food problem has been solved, all that is left is weapons. When it comes to weapons, we really don't have much iron ore in Daxia, but...there are so many in Jihu." what."

The emperor's eyes became more and more wrong, and Prime Minister Shen continued to say in a calm manner: "If the fierce Hus just got kicked out of the border town, maybe they meant to admit defeat and accept punishment, but now they have been destroyed by the third prince. Now, They are eager to make peace, but they..."

"If the Third Highness hadn't forced Jihu to this point this time, even if there is output from the frontier in the future, it will still be acquired by Jihu, and Jihu is ambitious, so he won't be content with himself. The more time you give them, the better they will be. I'm afraid it will be more difficult to deal with, so why not take this opportunity to leave their mine..."

The emperor was surprised: "Can they agree?"

Shen Xiang smiled like an old fox: "Then you must look at the skills of the negotiators."

The emperor asked: "It seems that Prime Minister Shen has someone in mind who wants to recommend him?"

Prime Minister Shen nodded and spit out a name: "Lu Chen."

It didn't take long for the emperor to think of this name. He also admired this person's knowledge and eloquence. Back then, even he was trained to be speechless by Lu Chen. .

But after Prime Minister Shen left, he said to Eunuch De meaningfully: "Guess, Prime Minister Shen is simply giving me advice, or speaking for the third child in a different way?"

After asking for a long time, I didn't hear a response. I turned my head and saw, well, this old thing is pretending to be deaf and dumb again.

The emperor was so angry and funny, he brought up a paper on impeaching Rong Yan on the table and smashed it.

"Let you pretend!"

Of course, the previous news reached the Queen's ears very quickly. Unlike most people, the first thing she noticed was Xiaoxiao's name.

"This girl is really good at tossing. Although she is digging food in the ground, she can be regarded as another great contribution to His Majesty."

The queen thought: "That martial lady Xiao Ran has also had great luck, and such a serious old injury can be healed. From now on, I am afraid that she will continue to be reused by His Majesty. Although she has no other skills except fighting, this Names are very useful in the army, haven’t you seen someone who is so nameless as the third child is highly respected when he goes to the border? Isn’t it just because of Xiao Ran’s glory.”

"The army is full of brainless old men. My son is a prince. They don't know how to respect them, and they are embarrassed everywhere. Instead, they try to curry favor with an unfavored prince who was raised by Xiao Ran."

"Father, read the letter sent back by the emperor. If the clairvoyance is really so magical, the girl of the Xiao family grew up in the countryside, and this wealth and honor is overwhelming. If the emperor can marry her..."

Yan Xiang thinks that this daughter is also amazing, every time she speaks, he feels like she is talking nonsense, but there seems to be some truth in these nonsense, for example, marrying Xiao Ning is beneficial to the prince, especially in the matter of fighting for military power. More than that is right.

He didn't bother to correct those inappropriate words one by one, he just asked: "But isn't the crown prince unwilling to marry?"

The queen shook the letter in her hand: "The emperor has changed his mind."
