I nodded seriously, cheering myself on. After this job, my host and I will be rich, and we can retire from crime...
Within the system space, the grains that had been soaked for a long time were locked in, ready to be poured at any time, and the remaining medicine could not be wasted.
Outside the palace, Li Yue stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the tightly closed, silent wooden palace door. Time passed second by second, and he remained silent, as did the palace servants.
Suddenly, a palace maid let out a soft gasp, drawing everyone's attention. Li Yue frowned and looked toward the source of the sound with displeasure.
The palace servant was so frightened that he knelt down and pointed to a spot, saying, "Your Majesty, look at those plants over there, aren't they growing too fast!"
He was pointing to a flowerbed, where the meticulously trimmed plants seemed to have sped up time.
The plant, which was originally about the height of a calf, grew to waist height in just a few moments.
Moreover, the plants in Deyue Palace grew wildly.
The bloodline of Shennong has awakened!
Li Yue clenched his fists, suppressing his joy. As if someone had heard his thoughts, the palace doors slammed open.

With so much grain, how many people could he feed, and how many great things could he accomplish!
He rubbed the husks off with his fingers, ate the coarse raw rice, and his eyes lit up. The taste wasn't bad at all compared to the imperial rice.
"Yan Pei, have someone protect these immortal seeds well, and don't let a single one be lost!"
The emperor gave the order in a deep voice, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes. This was the foundation upon which the Great Jin Dynasty would achieve its lasting glory.
I don't expect them all to grow this fast or produce this much; half, no, a third would be enough for me.
Thinking this, the emperor couldn't wait to walk forward and enter the inner room.
He looked up and saw the goddess looking at the bed with satisfaction, and he followed her gaze...
