Chapter 60 You turned my imperial garden into a vegetable garden...
60
Lin Baige's wrists were left with red marks, and he didn't dare leave the palace until the marks healed. He spent the past few days resting in the palace and studying recipes.
A few months ago, he took inventory of the vegetables in the clinic's refrigerator, which included corn, tomatoes, peppers, and some lettuce.
He tried cutting off the roots of the lettuce and growing them in water, and it really grew tendrils. He then tried planting it in the imperial garden, and it grew very well.
During that period, he often picked some lettuce leaves and made barbecued meat.
In addition to lettuce, the imperial garden also grows tomatoes, peppers, and corn.
Perhaps the soil in the imperial garden was better. When he couldn't take care of it on weekdays, the palace servants would help take care of it, and the plants grew well.
The corn, in particular, stood in rows taller than he was. It was harvest season, so he went in with a basket to pick the corn. "I'll cook some, roast some, and make soup with some. I'll save some and use the rest as seeds. I'll send them to Jiang Erwa next year so they can plant them first, and then we can promote it nationwide. Then there will be no shortage of food in the country."
He thought that the new seeds would not be easily accepted by people. If he distributed them rashly, the farmers might not want to use their own farmland to grow corn. But it was different for Jiang Erwa. They had already tried growing potatoes and sweet potatoes, and he had established a sense of credibility in their hearts, so they would be more likely to accept the new seeds.
"You turned my imperial garden into a vegetable garden?" Fu Jiangyu came back from court and didn't find anyone. He heard from the palace servants that Lin Baige was in the imperial garden.
The imperial garden used to be full of flowers, but now it is all green. A while ago, there were red peppers and tomatoes, but they were picked by Lin Baige two days ago, leaving only the dry seedlings.
"No one looked at the flowers I planted before, so I might as well plant some vegetables." Lin Baige thought to himself that there was no one in the harem, and Fu Jiangyu didn't like to appreciate flowers and plants. He first tentatively planted some lettuce, but when he saw that Fu Jiangyu didn't notice, he let go and planted vegetables on a large scale.
He came out with some corn. "This is delicious. I'll grill some for you later. Why don't we just set up a grill and have some barbecue here? The last time the envoys from the neighboring country came here, they brought some spices, including cumin. I'd like to use that to grill, is that okay?"
"Do you need to ask me what you want to eat?" Fu Jiangyu raised his hand to wipe the sweat off Lin Baige's forehead. "Even if you turn this palace upside down, I can't control you."
Lin Baige smiled at him, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth, like a little sun: "I turned the palace upside down. Your Majesty, should you also praise my strength?"
"You're really asking for sex when you smile like that." Fu Jiangyu put his arm around her slender waist, pressing her tightly against him. "I haven't tried it with you in the Imperial Garden yet..."
"Huh?" Lin Baige was stunned. He was in the cornfield, holding a basket of corn. How could he owe so much? Fu Jiangyu, you pervert!
