Today happened to be a day off, and Xi Xinheng was feeding birds in the yard.
Soon the butler came in hurriedly.
"Sir, the young master has returned to the capital."
Xi Xinheng paused, "Where is the person?"
The housekeeper gritted his teeth and repeated what the servant had reported, "The young master said he wanted to go to the palace to do great things and bring honor to the family. Whoever stops him is blocking his future."
"After he said that, the servants didn't dare to stop him anymore, so they hurried back to report."
Xi Xinheng immediately threw away the bird food in his hand, his face changed slightly, "This bastard, I'll go check it out."
He even went to the palace to do great things to bring honor to his family. Are you kidding him? It would be good if he didn't get instigated by others to cause trouble in the palace.
The housekeeper also felt that what Xi Rui said was unreliable, "Do you want to prepare a carriage?"
Xi Xinheng turned around to change his clothes and said, "Get ready. I'll be in the palace soon."
That brat had better not cause any trouble, or else his leg will really be broken this time.
On the other side, Liang Mingcheng was talking to his younger brothers in the study.
It was also the butler who came to report.
"Sir, the young master has returned to the capital, but he said he wants to go to the palace to do something important, which will bring honor to the family. Anyone who tries to stop him will have his legs broken."
Liang Mingcheng almost spit out the tea he had just drunk.
"Cough cough..." He choked after swallowing it. He couldn't help but patted the desk after coughing, "This bastard, when will he be more careful?"
Doing something to bring honor to the family is complete nonsense.
When he thought about that bastard going to the palace, he immediately stood up and said, "I'll go to the palace and take a look now."
Seeing this, the Second Master said, "Brother, Xiaoliu is really getting more and more outrageous. If you don't discipline him, I don't know what kind of trouble he will cause."
The Third Master is the most conservative in the family in his daily work, and he has the most complaints about his only spoiled nephew.
"Yeah, if not, why not send him out to gain experience for a few years? I think Mo Qingling from the Mo family is pretty good now."
Only the Fourth Master couldn't help but say: "Although Xiaoliu is a little off-key sometimes, he is still reliable in doing things."
"Maybe he really went to the palace to do something important."
He and Liang Youxiao were the only ones in the family who shared similar opinions, so he spoke up for his nephew.
The Second Master and the Third Master looked at him at the same time, "Only you can lie with your eyes open like this."
He actually said that the boy was reliable but had poor eyesight.
The Fourth Master: “…” He would endure it for now. If his nephew really accomplished something great, he would come back to confront the two of them.
But he actually had no idea in his heart. After all, his nephew was more likely to be unreliable than to be reliable...
Liang Mingcheng also didn't believe that his playboy son would do anything serious. He was now worried that the bastard would be instigated and used by others to cause trouble and bring harm to his family.
"I'll go and take a look."
He immediately stood up and asked the butler to prepare the carriage to enter the palace.
The Xi family and the Liang family rushed into the palace.
Xi Rui and a few others had already followed Mo Qingling's team and entered the palace together.
Although today is a holiday, the ministers still know what is going on in the palace.
When they heard that Mo Qingling not only came back from Nanxi County, but also brought those little dandies from the capital into the palace, everyone was confused.
There was only one thing on his mind: Could it be that those little dandies had caused some big trouble and were sent back by Mo Qingling himself?
After receiving the letter, the emperor did not tell his ministers about the God-given good seeds in advance.
The emperor has always been very cautious in doing things, so he will only announce it after he is sure of it.
Although he believed in Mo Qingling, he was also afraid that something might go wrong, which would be difficult to deal with.
After all, the whole of Daliang has been spreading unfavorable news about him recently.
At this moment, the emperor had just finished reading the memorials sent by his spies from all over the country, and his eyes turned cold.
He really underestimated his younger brother in the fiefdom, who actually held such great power in his hands.
He could only think of one thing, which was what the late emperor left for that person.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but get angry. The late emperor's heart was completely crooked.
For the sake of a woman, he was left with such a serious consequence.
At this moment, the palace servant came to report that Mo Qingling had arrived.
He put away the coldness in his eyes and smiled, "Xuan!"
He had already thought of how to clean up this mess, but it would be arduous, so he didn't really want to do it.
Soon, Mo Qingling walked in.
He was followed by Xi Rong and others.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Several people saluted.
The emperor was a little confused when he saw the group of young dandies behind him, but he remained calm and said, "No need to be polite."
He looked at Mo Qingling and asked, "Did you bring back the good seed?"
Mo Qingling nodded, "I asked someone to carry a load and put it at the door."
"Some of them have been ground into powder. Your Majesty, would you like to ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some for you to taste first?"
The emperor knew that Mo Qingling was very careful in his work. "Okay, I'll take a look at the seeds first."
He stood up and walked out the door to take a look.
He reached out and grabbed a handful of corn seeds and looked at them. "Have you tasted them?"
He is a smart man, and now he has almost guessed the purpose of these playboys following him.
Mo Qingling replied first: "I have tried it. It is very filling and tastes good. It can be used as food."
“And the production is too high.”
He took out a prepared memorial from his sleeve and said, "I asked someone to record this."
The emperor took it and opened it, his breathing becoming heavier.
"Uncle, this corn is very delicious when made into cakes. Corn flour can also be used to make steamed buns and wowotou."
As soon as Xi Rong started, the others followed.
"Yes, Your Majesty, this corn tastes delicious."
"Your Majesty, we have tasted them all, don't worry."
"We have seen with our own eyes that five kilograms of seeds can yield a thousand kilograms of grain."
The emperor's originally gloomy mood suddenly brightened up.
He smiled and said, "Okay, after the Grand Minister of Agriculture has come to see and confirm, everyone will be rewarded."
After saying this, he instructed the palace servants to send some corn flour to the imperial kitchen to make steamed buns, pancakes and wowotou.
The Grand Minister of Agriculture has been on standby these days and arrived soon.
He looked excited when he saw the corn seeds.
He reached out and grabbed a handful of cornmeal and put it in his mouth to taste.
"Your Majesty, this corn is indeed edible."
The Minister of Agriculture looked at Mo Qingling again and asked with doubt, "Is the yield really that high?"
Mo Qingling replied: "I can guarantee with my head that I personally led people to collect them."
The playboys all said, "We have seen this too. One acre of land can yield a thousand kilograms of fruit."
"That's right. We are all watching. Why wouldn't the Minister of Agriculture disbelieve it?"
Grand Minister of Agriculture: “…” I just don’t believe you guys, okay?
However, he still had some faith in Mo Qingling. After all, the other party dared to guarantee it with his life.
"Where are the other seeds? I want to see them."
Mo Qingling was already prepared and immediately asked someone to bring the remaining corn.
At this time, the imperial kitchen had already prepared corn buns and other dishes.
The emperor and the Minister of Agriculture both tasted it.
The Minister of Agriculture was so excited that his eyes turned red. "Your Majesty, if it is true as Magistrate Mo and his men said, that the corn yield is a thousand catties, then it would be a blessing for Daliang!"
However, there was still some uncertainty and doubt in his tone.
A few playboys quit.
"What do you mean if it really looks like that, it is what it is."
"Yes, we saw it with our own eyes."
"Don't be so ambiguous, old man."
"We can also use our lives to guarantee that this is real, so don't make trouble, old man."
Xi Xinheng and Liang Mingcheng had just arrived when they heard what their sons said. They almost fainted from anger and fright...
