Crossing the wasteland: Farming and peasant girls can't be provoked

Jing Yi didn't expect the emperor of the Jin Kingdom to be so avant-garde. Could it be that he also wore clothes?But thinking about it is unlikely.Maybe people are just rewarding meritorious deeds.

Xiao Yilin said: "Sooner or later, Jing Yan will restore her daughter's body. What if Jing Yan restores her daughter's body in the future and others say that she is deceiving the king?"

Xiao Chenghan looked at the impatient silly son and said with a smile: "I knew Chu Jingyan's identity as a woman in advance, so how can I say that I am deceiving you? As long as I know, isn't it deceitful?"

Xiao Yilin thought so too, the emperor knew about it in advance, and he conferred the title after knowing the identity of the little girl, so there is no such thing as deceiving the emperor.

Xiao Chenghan said: "The mansion I bestowed on Chu Jingyan is near your Prince Jing's mansion, so it will be convenient for you to come and go in the future."

When Xiao Yilin heard that the little girl would have her own mansion in the future, she was both happy and regretful, "Then Jingyan can't live in my mansion."

Xiao Chenghan snorted and said: "She is not suitable to live in your house all the time. Otherwise, won't her reputation be damaged when she regains her daughter's status in the future? You also have to consider Chu Jingyan."

Xiao Yilin thought it was true, he laughed and said, "Father, you are still thoughtful."

Xiao Chenghan rolled his eyes at his son, "You are also in your twenties, and you used to only care about leading troops to fight, and you need to learn more about human relationships in the future."

Speaking of which, Xiao Chenghan turned to Jing Yi and said, "I heard that Chu Jingyan, you improved a piece of land in Hui'an County that didn't grow farmers, so that it grew crops, and they grew well?"

Jing Yi cupped her hands and replied: "Return to Your Majesty, after many times of inspections, I have confirmed that the reason that no crops grow in that field is because the soil contains a lot of saline-alkali components, which prevents the crops from growing normally.

Chen also washed part of the salt in the soil with water according to his own idea, and part of the salt seeped deeper into the ground with the water, reducing the impact on food crops, so I added some self-made fertilizers to the fields that had been washed several times You can grow crops. "

Xiao Chenghan nodded, "I didn't expect this kind of field to have so much knowledge. It seems that Chu Jingyan is very talented in this area."

Xiao Chenghan also had his own intentions in granting the little girl a marquis.He wants to use the little girl's ability to benefit the state of Jin.To make a horse run, you have to feed the horse.

Not to mention a marquis, if the little girl can try to grow more high-yielding grains again, what if she is awarded a higher title?
He also has another consideration, the fourth son wants to marry Chu Jingyan, but Chu Jingyan's status is too low, and he also intends to let Chu Jingyan raise his status.

In addition, he can also use the status of the little girl to move to her.

He felt that the fourth child was too interested in this Chu Jingyan, and he didn't want his son to be obsessed with a woman.

If the fourth child inherits his power in the future, he doesn't want his emperor of Jin Dynasty to be controlled by a woman.

He didn't directly agree to his son's request now because he wanted to see how Chu Jingyan was. If she got carried away with pride and was proud of being favored, then he could lift her up or put her down.

He also knew the reason why Mu Xiuyu would be destroyed by Lin Feng, he would definitely dissatisfy some ministers by raising the little girl to such a high position, and there would definitely be people who secretly deal with the little girl, but this is also one of the items he inspects the little girl.He wants to see how much wind and waves she can withstand.

Xiao Chenghan said: "Since you have such a talent, Chu Jingyan, don't waste it. There is a wasteland not far from the capital, and there is no crops growing there, only some grass. I gave that wasteland to you. You, do you think you can manage that piece of land into a good farmland?"

Xiao Yilin knew where Father was talking about as soon as he heard it, "Father, are you talking about the wasteland near the North Camp?"

Xiao Chenghan nodded, "That's right, it's there. That piece of wasteland is not far from the capital, and the barracks were built there at the beginning because there were no crops growing there. If it wasn't for the fact that the wasteland didn't grow crops, it would have been bought away a long time ago." up.

Now that piece of wasteland is still in the hands of the imperial court, if it is given to Chu Jingyan, she may be able to manage it into a fertile land, and it will not be such a large area of ​​wasteland.And I will inform the Ministry of Household Affairs to exempt Chu Jingyan from taxes for five years. "

Jing Yi felt that the emperor must have made up his mind a long time ago. It seemed that she was given the title of marquis, a mansion, land and gold, but in fact she had to pay a lot.

If she grows high-yield grain again, it will be of great benefit to Jin.At least it will greatly enhance the national strength of Jin.

Jing Yi was not happy because she was granted the title of Marquis. She knew in her heart that this seemingly glorious title of Marquis concealed many dangers.

In the eyes of outsiders, she is only 15 years old and has no foundation behind her. How can those established families be happy when she is suddenly promoted to such a high position?They may be doing something bad secretly.

She always felt that the emperor of the Jin Kingdom had no good intentions.This pushed her to the forefront all at once, it was like putting her on fire, and she couldn't help but keep a low profile.

At this time, Jing Yi also felt the treacherousness of the political game.Both the emperor of Jin and the ministers are all old foxes, so she has to be careful in the future.

If one day those ministers know that she is a woman, it will cause even bigger disturbances.Although the emperor looks very talkative now, who knows what attitude he will have then?

This undoubtedly became a sword hanging over her head.

Jing Yi now regrets coming to the capital with Xiao Yilin. If she stayed in Hui'an County, there would be no such troubles.But the emperor summoned her and couldn't allow her to refuse.

Now that she has been made a marquis and given a mansion, the emperor has asked her to improve the wasteland. It seems that she will settle in the capital in the future.Then she has to bring her mother and uncle to the capital, and arrange things in Hui'an County.

Xiao Chenghan turned his head to look at the little girl and said, "Chu Jingyan, if you can manage that wasteland well and turn it into a fertile field to grow crops, I don't think those ministers in the court will have any complaints about me conferring your title." gone."

Jing Yi is now in a difficult position to get off the tiger, and she has to go up. She cupped her hands and said, "I haven't checked that wasteland, and I don't know why the crops don't grow. But I must work hard, try my best to manage the wasteland so that it grows." Bring out the crops."

Xiao Yilin was also a little worried at this time. The wasteland was right next to his military camp. He knew that not only did there not grow crops, but even weeds did not grow much there.There was something white like frost on the ground, and he knew there was salt in it.

Moreover, the land there is relatively compact, and it is very difficult to reclaim it.Didn't the father create a problem for the little girl?If the wasteland is not well managed, won't it be criticized by others.

Xiao Yilin wanted to stop this matter, "Father, I know that land, the land there is very hard, how can I manage it well so that it can grow crops?"
