Chapter 253 is also edible



When Yuchi Xi went to call Emperor Dewu, Emperor Dewu was very happy.

He thought he was having dinner alone with Xier.

As a result, Xier pulled me over and I saw a room full of people.

Emperor Dewu: ...

"Your Highness."

When Empress Xian and others saw him, they quickly stood up and saluted.

Concubine Liang quickly hid the wooden sign under the table, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. Why did His Majesty really come?

Isn’t Your Majesty very busy?

Why not just have someone send some food over?

Emperor Dewu: ...

Very good. I could hear their laughter outside just now, but as soon as they came in, you could hear a pin drop.

Am I that terrible?

"No need to be so polite, please sit down and have your meal."

Emperor Dewu carried Yuchi Xi over and sat down. When he saw Yuchi Xi asked Jing Huaian to sit down as well, he just glanced at him and said nothing.

Xier asked him to sit, so he sat.

"The dishes are all here. Are they waiting for me?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Liang quickly spoke, "Yes, Your Majesty, aren't we waiting for you?"

"If you don't come, we won't eat."

Emperor Dewu naturally knew this, but he felt happy just hearing them say it.

"Well, let's eat."

Emperor Dewu nodded lightly, very proudly.

Yuchi Xi covered his mouth and laughed secretly.

[It’s better not to tell Daddy. No one has any intention of waiting for Daddy.]

Emperor Dewu: ...

In his mind, it was just June, but now it was already the coldest time of the year.

Xier, Daddy heard everything!!

After finishing the meal, Emperor Dewu carried Yuchi Xi to the imperial study.

Concubine Liang breathed a sigh of relief and took out the wooden cards. "Come on, let's continue playing wooden cards. Let's continue!"

In the imperial study, someone was reporting.

"Your Majesty, Dai Changdong and his men have achieved initial success, and some villagers already know how to increase grain production."

“And it’s being implemented.”

Emperor Dewu nodded slightly, "Well done."

"Your Majesty, the money that the emperor used to purchase materials to increase grain production has also been delivered."

"The gold mines and other items donated to us by the Western Liang Kingdom have all been shipped back to our Yuan Kingdom."

"Well, have the cotton coats been distributed to the soldiers?" Emperor Dewu asked him.

"Your Majesty, they have all been distributed and are on their way. They are expected to arrive in a few days."

"Um."

Emperor Dewu nodded slightly, "What else?"

"It's okay."

"Then you step down."

"yes!"

As soon as the man left, Emperor Dewu took out a piece of paper and spread it on the table, "Xi'er, come here, I will teach you how to practice calligraphy."

Yuchi Xi:!!!

Well, actually she is a bit lazy now QAQ.

border.

Now the weather is getting colder and colder, and many soldiers on the border shiver all over after standing for a while, but they gritted their teeth and stood guard, refusing to retreat.

“It’s time to eat!”

"Change of guard!"

Someone shouted, and those who were shivering from the cold immediately hurried off the job, and new people took their places.

They returned to the tent, where there was a basin in the middle of the tent with wood burning in it.

It was very warm in the tent. As soon as they came in, they felt the cold air on their bodies rapidly fading away. The snowflakes on their heads turned into ice water when they encountered the heat. They quickly took out their sweat towels and wiped the snow off their heads.

"Come and sit down to eat."

Someone was shouting beside the brazier, so they hurried over. Those people handed them a big bowl of rice with some potatoes mixed in.

The people who just came in didn't dare to eat the bowl of rice.

"Deputy General, what's going on?"

"Is this the last meal for execution? After we have this meal today, are we going to charge forward?"

They had only eaten corn rice and brown rice before, and had never eaten white rice before.

Oh, the assault troops can eat it before going to the battlefield.

Because they are almost in danger of death, once they go, they can never come back, it is also called the last meal of execution.

The deputy general looked at them and smiled, "Don't worry, this is not your last meal."

"We haven't had to fight recently. This is the grain allocated by the imperial court. Our Yuan Kingdom has developed a way to increase grain production, so the emperor allocated some extra rice."

"This is a good thing. I'll let you have a good meal today and celebrate together."

"Maybe we can eat white rice every day in the future?"

"The white rice contains sweet potatoes, which are edible."

"Try it, I've eaten it. It's very filling and gives me a lot of energy!"

“It’s still sweet.”

The soldiers looked at the white rice in their bowls, their eyes welling up, "Our emperor is truly a good emperor!"

"It is truly my blessing to be a soldier of the Yuan Kingdom!"

"Deputy General, next time you're going to give me white rice, can you tell me? I don't want to eat it. Just give me my share of rice. I want to ask someone to bring it back for my parents to try."

"My parents have never eaten white rice!"

Everyone around was silent.

The deputy general frowned. He wanted to scold him, "Aren't you kidding me?" But when he thought of his life experience, he couldn't bring himself to scold him.

"Okay, then we'll have white rice, and I'll save your portion of rice."

"Hey!" The young man smiled innocently, his face full of happiness.

The people around him also breathed a sigh of relief, as they were all worried that he would be scolded!

After finishing their meal, the young men wrapped themselves in robes and prepared to leave when the deputy general said, "Wait!"
