Chapter 346 Eunuch Li Visits the Greenhouse

Eunuch Li followed Butler Liu to the kitchen first, and after having a delicious meal, they returned to the tent to rest.

On the other side, Liu Zhi was kneeling in front of Han Mulei, lying with a look of grievance on his face.

"Your Majesty, Han Muchen forced me to attack Lord Zhou, and I dared not disobey.

But no matter what, Lord Zhou died at the hands of my subordinates, and I have come here today to apologize."

Liu Zhi said this with a painful look on his face, a hint of determination flashed across his eyes, and he quickly drew the sword from his waist and chopped it down on his neck.

Just when the sword was about to hit his neck, Zhou Sheng, who was standing by, kicked the sword away.

"Lord Liu, there's no need to do this. You can't be blamed for this."

Zhou Sheng clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth, forcing out almost every word.

His eyes were filled with immense hatred. He had not expected Han Muchen to be so cruel as to kill his brother just like that.

He took note of this debt and would repay it double someday.

Seeing that Zhou Sheng was about to lose control of his emotions, Han Mulei patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, the king will settle this account with him."

He frowned as he spoke, looking extremely distressed.

In fact, he didn't feel anything. Although Zhou Quan was his own man, he didn't value him much.

He hadn't done much to satisfy him over the years, so he was just a useless guy who died.

But Zhou Sheng has been with him since he was a child, and Zhou Quan is his brother after all, so he has to pretend.

"I thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhou Sheng bowed to Han Mulei, his back teeth still clenched tightly.

He didn't notice the pride in Liu Zhi's eyes at all.

I thought it would take some convincing, but I didn't expect them to believe it so easily.

"You get up too!" Han Mulei looked at Liu Zhi.

"I thank the prince, Lord Zhou."

He stood up, bowed to the two of them, and moved closer.

"I wonder when the people sent by the prince will arrive?"

According to the date, the people sent by the prince should have arrived, but he had not received any notification and did not know why.

"We'll have to wait a few more days, but it should be soon."

Han Mulei looked at Liu Zhi. If those people had not been sent in batches, they would have arrived by now.

But in order not to arouse other people's suspicion, I can only wait patiently.

But he was not in a hurry. He had sent so many people there and believed that this time it would be successful.

The next morning, when Qin Chuchu got up, there was no one in the front hall.

It's no wonder that the Living King of Hell must have taken Eunuch Li to see the troglodyte greenhouse.

After a simple breakfast, I rode my bike to the pit greenhouse and found that they were there.

As soon as I arrived at the greenhouse, I saw Eunuch Li smiling so hard that his teeth were showing.

"Oh! Is this the water pressure well?"

He squatted beside the well, drinking mouthfuls of cold water from the well, his face full of wrinkles from smiling.

When General Cheng first mentioned this water pressure well, he was curious about what it looked like.

Now I have seen it in person. I didn’t expect that such a small thing could squeeze out so much water at one time.

He looked up at the entire greenhouse and saw plants he had never seen before. Even the walls were covered with green.

There is green everywhere, it's so pleasing to the eyes.

No wonder General Cheng and the others spoke so excitedly, it seems what they said is true.

After seeing Qin Chuchu, he hurriedly bowed.

"princess!"

"Good morning, father-in-law!" Qin Chuchu smiled and turned to the man.

"Your Majesty, can I eat the watermelon I gave you?"

She pointed to the watermelon in front of her, remembering that the man said it was edible yesterday.

"Don't you want to eat?"

Han Muchen looked at the little face in front of him leisurely.

It’s great to be cheerful again.

"Yesterday is yesterday, today is today, how can they be the same?"

Qin Chuchu curled her lips and glanced at the man with dissatisfaction.

I really had no appetite yesterday, but it’s different today. Looking at the big watermelon in front of me, I can’t wait to eat it.

Looking at the stupid woman's angry little face, the smile on the man's lips widened infinitely, and he turned to look at Feng Qi.

The latter understood and hurried forward a few steps, picked up the watermelon that Qin Chuchu was looking at, and asked someone to bring a fruit knife.

With one cut, the fiery red flesh appeared in front of everyone, and everyone's eyes lit up.

"Haha, it's really popular!"

Qin Chuchu pointed at the red-fleshed watermelon in front of her, her eyes curved with a smile.

The man actually guessed it right, the watermelon was actually ripe.

The eyes of the others also lit up, and they looked at the big red watermelon in front of them, with the corners of their mouths curled up in joy.

I thought I would have to wait for a while, but I didn’t expect it to be cooked so quickly.

Soon, the watermelon was divided into small pieces, and Qin Chuchu couldn't wait to take a piece.

The juice flows out in one bite, it is so delicious.

“So sweet!”

With a watermelon in her mouth, she looked at the man with a smile on her face.

I don’t know if it’s just a psychological effect, but I feel that the watermelon in my hand is much sweeter than the ones I ate before.

After eating the watermelon, the others also raised their lips in satisfaction.

It is not midsummer now, nor is it the season for watermelons to ripen. It was unimaginable in the past that we could eat such sweet watermelons.

What’s more, the watermelon is so sweet, much sweeter than the watermelons they usually eat.

Eunuch Li also nodded happily.

"Yeah, yes, this watermelon is really sweet."

I have been by the emperor's side for so many years and have eaten all kinds of delicious food.

But this is the first time I have eaten such a sweet watermelon.

Although Han Muchen didn't say anything, he was very satisfied in his heart. After all, the plants in this greenhouse grew up little by little under his careful care, just like his children. Everyone looked happy while eating them.

Soon, a large watermelon weighing more than ten kilograms was eaten up by several people.

Qin Chuchu looked at the watermelon rind in her hand and felt that she was not full.

In order to maintain her demeanor as a princess in front of outsiders, she didn't feel comfortable going forward to take it just now, otherwise she would have eaten at least a few pieces by now.

Looking at the many big, round watermelons in the field, she tugged at the man's sleeve.

"Your Majesty, that watermelon is the biggest."

She looked at the man eagerly and licked her lips secretly while speaking. Her meaning was very clear.

“…………”Han Muchen.

There was a smile on the corners of his eyes and brows. If there were no outsiders around, he would have knocked her on the head. What a greedy little thing he was. He could only grab the woman's little hand back.

"My dear, that one is not cooked yet!"

"How could that be?" Qin Chuchu frowned.

I stared straight at the long and big watermelon in the distance. It was at least twice as big as the one I had just eaten.

This small one is ripe, so logically, the other one should be ripe too.

Seeing what the silly woman was thinking, the man was not in a hurry and pulled her to the big watermelon.

"Look, my dear, this rice seedling is different from the one we just ate!"
