Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 248 A treasure belonging to the Tang Dynasty!

Li Yuan and Empress Zhangsun followed closely behind.

The original plan for today was for Li Yuan to preside over everything, but Li Yuan declined.

Li Yuan knew clearly that today's achievements had almost nothing to do with him, although Li Shimin had done some wrong things in the Xuanwu Gate Incident three years ago.

But now, Li Yuan has let it go.

The Tang Dynasty was thriving, and even if he died, he would have done justice to his ancestors and the people of the world.

And more importantly, Qin Changye was a gift from God, and God was recognizing Li Shimin's era.

He was one step away after all.

Li Yuan walked down the stairs step by step.

Facing thousands of pairs of gazes, he felt as if a tree had come back to life in spring. His whole body's energy and spirit were lifted, and his old eyes became clear and transparent.

Step by step.

Li Shimin walked down the stairs.

Keep walking towards Suzaku Gate.

All the officials followed behind respectfully.

In front of the Suzaku Gate.

Countless people were roaring madly.

The moment he saw Li Shimin, all the strength in his body seemed to explode. The sound was really like an overwhelming tidal wave, rising to a higher level again, shaking his head so much that it made him dizzy.

"Long live His Majesty, long live Master Qin!"

"Long live His Majesty, long live Master Qin!"

"Long live His Majesty, long live Master Qin!"

"......."

hysteria.

The world explodes!

Li Shimin took a deep breath, then he suddenly stretched out his hands and pressed lightly into the air.

Suddenly, the sound slowly dissipated like the receding tide.

For a moment, there was absolute silence!
Li Shimin was truly filled with high spirits.

When had he ever seen such a scene?
Countless people fought in front of the imperial city, but it was as quiet as a tomb, without any noise. At this moment, it was as if all sounds between heaven and earth had disappeared.

They all looked at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin let out a long breath.

"After more than three months, the sweet potatoes are finally ready for harvest."

"In fact, I shouldn't have been the first one to dig it up today. After all, this sweet potato was obtained by Master Qin. It's a pity that Master Qin has an indifferent personality and doesn't like fame and fortune. He only loves to indulge in the mountains and rivers."

"It is a pity that Young Master Qin did not arrive at today's ceremony!"

"In this case, I am the only one who has come to collect the goods. The yield per mu is 30 dan. This was what Master Qin told me. If you all agree, I won't believe it."

"Thirty loads, this is thirty loads. I have grown crops before, so I know what this means. How is this possible?"

“I… … .”

Having said this, Li Shimin rubbed his hands vigorously, and his palms were full of sweat.

The yield per mu is thirty dan!
To be honest, he really didn't even dare to think about it before.

Such a bumper harvest has never happened in thousands of years.

"But! Young Master Qin said that sweet potatoes are totally fine!"

"In that case, I planted several trees in front of the Suzaku Gate in front of the people of the world. Now, I will tear them apart with my own hands."

"Let the world and the people see what the King of Chu has brought to our Tang Dynasty!"

Li Shimin laughed loudly and pushed down the fence he had built with his own hands.

Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui and others all stood as close as possible.

But even so, the invisible officials at the back could still squeeze forward.

Even the common people wanted to get closer and closer, so that they could see it with their own eyes.

However, in the Tang Dynasty, there was no live broadcast and no camera, so all we could see were the first few lines.

The Jinwu Guards set up a cordon to block the people.

Otherwise, the people would really rush forward.

Their breathing was rapid.

Their eyeballs were about to pop out.

The people have been waiting for this moment for more than three months. How can they not be excited?
Yield of 1,000 catties per mu! Yield of 30 dan per mu!

Who wouldn't be confused when hearing this?
Who wouldn’t be excited after hearing this?
I can't control myself at all!

Li Shimin squatted down.

Empress Changsun and Li Yuan also squatted nearby.

They all watched as Li Shimin carefully dug into a mound of earth, fearing that something might go wrong.

For a moment, my breathing became rapid.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.

Jie Li Khan, the head of the Zhaojun Li family, and Hou Junji were all staring at Li Shimin.

I have to say that there is no better position in the entire venue than these three.

Able to see all of Li Shimin's movements without any obstruction.

Although this position was obtained at the cost of one's head, it was enough to bring some comfort to the three of them...
It would be worth it to be able to witness the auspicious sign of 30 dan of yield per mu before I die.

"Damn it! Who on earth is this King of Chu?"

"The yield per mu is 30 dan. The Tang Dynasty actually has such a treasure. If I had known this earlier, I would have surrendered directly!"

Jieli Khan muttered to himself.

He knew it very well, and not only him, but Tuli Khan and his group also knew it very well.

If they can really produce 30 dan per mu, it won’t take long before they will kneel here even if the mysterious army does not appear.

Every Turk knows what price the well-fed Tang people will pay to defend their homeland.

At that time, let alone the Turks, even if the Tubo, Goguryeo and other dynasties united, they would probably not be a match for the Tang Dynasty.

The pile of earth was dug up.

Li Shimin had already grabbed the root of the sweet potato with his hands.

As time passed, the breathing of countless people present froze and stagnated.

At this moment, it seemed as if all the attention between heaven and earth was on Li Shimin's hands.

Even the birds flying in the sky would hover over the sweet potatoes, reluctant to leave for a long time.

“Hiss….Huh…”

Li Shimin closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and calmed his heart as if it was about to burst out of his chest.

He knew that if the birth of sweet potatoes was really as Kuan'er said, then a new era would begin!

If the yield per mu fails to reach 30 dan, then all the joy and expectations of today will be in vain.

The Tang Dynasty is still the same Tang Dynasty, the people are still the same people, and the world is still the same world.

There will be no transformation!
Li Shimin clenched his muscles tightly with both hands, and then exerted force with his arms.

at last!

Crash...
There was a slight sound of sweet potatoes breaking through the loose soil.

The dirt on the sweet potatoes rolled down.

Li Shimin raised his arms high.

But, no one cares about soil now.

All eyes were on Li Shimin's raised hand.

That is…….
In an instant, there was endless oppression, endless emptiness, and endless silence between heaven and earth.

They saw it!

sweet potato!

That’s right, sweet potatoes!
In Li Shimin's hand, he saw a pile of fruits bigger than fists attached to a thick rhizome.

Is this... sweet potato?
At this time, Li Shimin also raised his head, staring at the string of sweet potatoes in his hand, his mouth open and his eyes bursting.

He was frightened.

Are you really scared?
This sweet potato looks rather ordinary from the outside, and there is even a lot of dirt stuck on its red, sandy surface.

However, Li Shimin could clearly understand the horror of sweet potatoes!
The yield per mu is thirty dan!
Absolutely!
Li Shimin was extremely sure of this, and all the worries in his heart disappeared in an instant.

Do not!
Even if the yield per mu is 40 dan, perhaps it is possible.

This weight...
Li Shimin could feel a numbness and soreness in his arms. From the perspective of others, it seemed that he was holding the sweet potatoes easily. However, Li Shimin knew that this bunch of sweet potatoes weighed about five or six kilograms.

This sweet potato is really big!

Almost as big as two fists!

This is just one plant!
One plant weighs five or six kilograms! Thirty dan, one acre of land, isn't it just a piece of cake?
One load weighs one hundred pounds.

It's just twenty sweet potato plants.

In this case, only 600 plants need to be planted on one acre of land.

This small piece of land of mine is very small, but I have planted nine sweet potatoes. In this way, one acre of land can easily produce thirty loads of crops.

this! ! !
This is real! ! !

real! !
Blast!

Confused!
excited!

Trance!

excitement!
Tears instantly flowed from Li Shimin's eyes. These tears were like a river opening its floodgates, like galaxies hanging upside down, and like a waterfall on earth!

I can’t stop it, I really can’t stop it!

It flowed down his cheeks continuously, and in a few breaths it had soaked the dragon robe.

The sun shines on the sweet potatoes.

As the rosy glow and the sweet potatoes reflected each other, Li Shimin had already seen the future of the Tang Dynasty.

Master Qin!
I love you so much!!
The corners of Li Shimin's mouth were trembling wildly. He wanted to laugh, but also wanted to cry.

However, he knew that he was the emperor, and in today's situation, he had to maintain his proper imperial demeanor.

Hahaha…….
But in his heart, he was already laughing so hard that it seemed like his heart was about to break!
Empress Changsun and Li Yuan, who were standing nearby, had already noticed something was wrong with Li Shimin. They looked at the bean-sized tears, somewhat confused.

Could it be that…….
Sweet potatoes not meeting expectations?

People like Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Weizheng, and Du Ruhui were also staring at the sweet potato in Li Shimin's hand.

I felt a little anxious.

What’s the situation?

Does the sweet potato yield reach 30 dan per mu?
None of them know.

"Your Majesty, how about this sweet potato?"

“Gudong…”

Empress Changsun glanced at both sides and knew that she had to remind Li Shimin.

The people and the officials are all watching.

Whether you have achieved it or not, whether it is feasible or not, you have to make an statement!
"Your Majesty, a yield of thirty dan per mu is too scary after all. Even if it is not achieved, the people will forgive it."

"It's okay, it really is okay!"

Empress Changsun's voice was clear and could be heard everywhere.

"Yes, Your Majesty, a yield of thirty dan per mu is like a myth."

"Now our people only produce three or four dan of grain per mu. If we can produce seven or eight dan of sweet potatoes, it will be enough to tip the scales and make the world cheer!"

Changsun Wuji echoed.

"Fu Ji is right, Your Majesty," Wei Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, how about this sweet potato?" Du Ruhui asked.

Countless people's eyes were fixed on Li Shimin.

Your Majesty, why aren't you moving?
However, this thought just arose from the bottom of their hearts, and the next moment...
"Hahaha……."

Li Shimin couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Laugh heartily!

Laugh loudly!

Laughing excitedly!
He swallowed hard and carefully withdrew his arm.

There's no way, it's too heavy. My arms are already shaking. If I continue to hold on, I really can't bear it.

However, Li Shimin did not give the sweet potato to anyone, but put it on the ground.

Afterwards, he made a move that shocked countless people.

Li Shimin knelt directly on the ground.

He kowtowed three times respectfully towards the sweet potato.

"His Majesty!!"

Empress Changsun cried softly.

All around, officials and common people had not yet recovered from the laughter when they saw Li Shimin kneeling on the ground.

"Hahaha……."

Li Shimin knelt on the ground, looked around, laughed several times, and then shouted impatiently: "Seven or eight dan per mu?"

"No, this is too little! But as for the yield of thirty dan per mu? I also feel a little regretful."

Li Shimin said with a smile.

After these words were spoken, countless people looked at each other, at a loss.

Pity?

In that case, it didn’t reach thirty dan?

Did it fail after all?

However, looking at the attitude of Your Majesty, even if it has not reached thirty dan, compared with the yield of three or four dan per mu, it must be much more.

But for some reason, I still felt a little sigh and uncomfortable.

Especially those people who have been guarding the sweet potatoes for more than three months.

The expression on his face froze.

It seemed impossible to accept it for a moment.

Empress Changsun and Li Yuan didn't know what to say.

Not achieved?
Hey!
Yes!

After all, the yield of 30 dan per mu that Qin Changye mentioned was too scary.

Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui looked at each other, with shock in their eyes.

Was Qin Changye wrong?

Didn’t the yield per mu reach 30 dan?

this…….
did not expect,
Qin Changye's words are sometimes wrong.

The three of them didn't know what was going on and began to feel uncomfortable.

But then, Li Shimin's voice sounded again.

Li Shimin had already seen everyone's expressions.

He reached out and gently stroked the sweet potato, his eyes full of tenderness.

Smile.

Raised his head again.

"No, you are wrong."

"What Master Qin said has never been wrong!"

"Thirty dan per mu, what's that? I checked it myself, and based on this amount of weight, it would be easy to... yield forty dan per mu!!"

boom…….
As soon as these words came out!
The minds of countless people around suddenly went blank.

Then the blood pressure will go straight up!

It seems like it’s about to splash out from the top of my head!
There was no scenery in front of my eyes, only darkness.

The dizziness came very suddenly.

His Majesty! !
What did you say? ! ! !

Shock spread among everyone, and dead silence accompanied everyone.

Chang'an seemed to be frozen!
at this moment.

It seemed that even breathing disappeared at this moment.

Empress Changsun was stunned.

Li Yuan was stunned.

Changsun Wuji was stunned.

Wei Zheng was stunned.

.......
Everyone in the audience, anyone who could breathe, was stunned.

Completely stupid!

Unbelievable!

incredible!

The yield per mu is 40 dan!!

Damn, this is 10 more than the 30 dan per mu yield. (End of this chapter)
