Chapter 137 Concubine Fang was punished to kneel
"Your Majesty, don't you believe me?"
Shen Lingshu was like a spoiled child, pouting, as if she was angry because she was not believed.
"Lingshu, do you know how much grain production there is now?" Chu Cong asked instead of answering.
"When I was in the farm in Nancheng, the crops on the farm could yield more than 200 catties. If it was a good year, we could even yield 300 catties."
Shen Lingshu answered clearly. Anyway, when she was studying the script, she studied everything thoroughly. When she looked at the food, she also looked up the information. She said, "Your Majesty, I think the method in the book is very feasible."
"And the composting method is clearly written. I think it will work if we follow the instructions in the book, but..."
Shen Lingshu's excited words dimmed as she spoke, "Since I came to Kyoto, I have been staying in the mansion. I can't go out, and I can't try."
Perhaps it was because she looked too confident, or perhaps because he was too hopeful that what she said was true, Chu Cong raised his hand and gently lifted her chin. Looking at her bright and charming face, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise: "This king will give you a farm with a hundred acres of fertile land. You can plant it however you want!"
"real?"
The joy in Shen Lingshu's eyes could no longer be hidden. She couldn't wait to say, "Then I'll take the booklet to the prince now."
As she spoke, Shen Lingshu ran towards the inner room. After taking two steps, her knees softened and she fell down.
"Ling Shu."
Chu Cong stepped forward, picked her up by the waist, and placed her on the couch. He lifted her trousers and saw her bruised knees. His face darkened instantly. "Qingwu, please call in Doctor Lin."
"Your Highness, it's okay." Shen Lingshu covered her legs uncomfortably and said, "It will be fine in a few days."
"You are my concubine, you..."
Chu Cong paused. In the entire palace, Concubine Fang was probably the only one who could punish her. Thinking of what she had just said, Chu Cong's face instantly darkened. Who leaked the news?
Concubine Fang came to tell Ling Shu that she had an affair with Song Yuqing?
And punished Ling Shu?
"Your Highness, I have displeased you, and it is not wrong for the concubine to punish me." Shen Lingshu said innocently, still trying to excuse Concubine Fang.
"stupid."
Chu Cong looked at her knees with heartache, completely forgetting that her body was delicate and would leave marks if touched.
He snorted coldly and looked at the Nüjie next to him. After Qingwu invited Doctor Lin to come, he said, "Qingwu, go to Qiutang Courtyard and have the concubine copy the Nüjie a hundred times and kneel for two hours."
"yes."
Qingwu responded and immediately went to deliver the message.
"Your Majesty..."
Just as Shen Lingshu was about to speak, Chu Cong stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth and said, "Doctor Lin, take a good look at the concubine's knee injury. Is it harmful to her health?"
Doctor Lin: “…”
He didn't even see the extent of the injury, so how could he know if it was serious?
Lin Lang was about to curse, but he had to force a smile. After feeling the pulse, his face darkened again. He gently reminded, "Your Highness, the concubine's kidney water is slightly dry. It may be due to excessive yang activity. She needs to be properly nursed back to health before she can conceive again."
“…”
A trace of guilt flashed in Chu Cong's eyes. He was just impulsive yesterday and asked for two more times than usual.
"Doctor Lin, can I just apply some medicated oil on my legs?" Shen Lingshu quickly changed the subject.
"yes."
Doctor Lin responded, "Massage it twice a day, and it will be healed in three to five days."
Shen Lingshu immediately smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Lin. It's so late and you still have to diagnose me."
"It's my duty." Doctor Lin replied respectfully.
Zhu Xin handed over the purse that had been prepared long ago and enthusiastically saw Doctor Lin off. Her eyes were filled with admiration as she looked at her master: Has the master coaxed the prince again?
"You can't move your legs." Chu Cong held down Shen Lingshu who was trying to get up and asked, "What do you want to take?"
"Bedside box."
Shen Lingshu pointed to a wooden box beside the bed.
Chu Cong stood up, his ink-black sleeves fluttering. His tall and slender body was holding a box by the bed. Shen Lingshu's eyes flashed slightly. In the royal family, if she only expected the prince's love, she would be really stupid!
After traveling through time, in addition to sorting out the plot, she was thinking about how to increase her weight in her heart, and food was the top priority.
During her pregnancy, she repeatedly modified some of the later methods of increasing grain production and scientific farming. She wanted to avoid letting people notice her inappropriateness, but also wanted to take credit for the achievement. It was not an easy task to strike the right balance.
Chu Cong handed the box forward without opening it. Shen Lingshu smiled. The prince was still very gentlemanly at times.
She opened the box and took out the book she had written. "Your Highness," she said, "please read this. This is how I've improved my farming methods over the years. I'm afraid I'll forget."
"For so many years, I have taken it out every year to look at it. If, if it could really produce so much food, it would be great. Aunt Wang, Aunt Zhang, Uncle Wu and others on the farm would all have enough to eat."
Shen Lingshu murmured, and she solemnly handed it to Chu Cong and said, "Prince, if you can really grow so much food, can you send some food to the Shen family farm in Shili Village in Nancheng? When they were hungry before, they saved their food for me."
"Can."
Chu Cong held her in his arms and felt even more distressed about her past suffering.
…
Qiutang Courtyard.
"Qingwu, you said that the prince punished me, his concubine, by making me kneel for two hours and copy the "Instructions for Women" a hundred times?"
Concubine Fang looked at Qingwu in shock. Whether she was punished by kneeling or copying books, her legs and hands would probably suffer severe punishment.
"Yes, the prince said that not a quarter of an hour can be less. Concubine, you must finish kneeling before midnight." Qing Wu spoke. He knew very well that Concubine Shen was different from the people around the prince.
In the past, as long as there was an affair between a man and a woman, would the prince ever show any mercy?
Now, Concubine Shen is not only safe, but also asked the prince to give away the Crescent Moon Villa with hot springs, and she also made the prince happy. Concubine Shen is not simple.
“…”
Concubine Fang stumbled. She bit her lip tightly to prevent herself from cursing in anger. She looked at Qing Wu and said, "It's late at night, and you're still..."
Qing Wu seemed to know what she wanted to say and interrupted her directly, "Please don't embarrass me, Concubine."
"Concubine."
Nanny Gui supported the shaky Concubine Fang and whispered quickly in her ear, "Concubine, the prince is determined to avenge Concubine Shen. Don't mess with him."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Concubine Fang took a deep breath, slowly knelt down, and her eyes gradually became blurry.
"Please tell the prince, Brother Qingwu, that I am ashamed of my sister Qiurong's teachings. From today on, I will eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures every day to apologize to sister Qiurong."
Concubine Fang knelt with her back straight, lowered her eyes, and hid the calculation in her eyes.
