Han Xin has made great contributions this time, so he must be rewarded well.
As various things were spread out, Zhao Qingrui also discovered a lot of good things.
Cocoa beans, cashews, apples, apricots, melon seeds, and some spices.
Zhao Qingrui looked at these things with shining eyes, especially the seeds. With these seeds, the species diversity of Daqin would be greatly increased.
"Your Majesty, do you know these things?" Li Si asked carefully, looking at Zhao Qingrui with shining eyes.
"Well, these are all good things. Come, call Xu Changming over. I have something to tell him." Zhao Qingrui asked someone to put these seeds away carefully and hand them over to Xu Changming later, asking him to plant them in Shanglin Garden first.
"Yes." The guard took the order and left.
Suddenly, the exclamations of others attracted everyone's attention.
"Your Majesty, what kind of egg is this? Why is it so big?" An official carefully held an egg.
Zhao Qingrui looked over and saw a basket of ostrich eggs.
"This thing is called an ostrich egg, and it comes from a very large and tall bird." Zhao Qingrui explained briefly.
"Your Majesty is so knowledgeable that he even understands foreign things." The man shouted flatteringly.
Zhao Qingrui looked at the man speechlessly. She remembered this man. He was the Confucian scholar who liked to flatter her the most. He graduated from the Jixia Academy.
Since he had some abilities, she gave him a job and placed him in the Ministry of Rites.
"Your Majesty, what are your plans for this basket of ostrich eggs?" Li Si looked at the basket of ostrich eggs with great interest.
"Eat it, and stay for a while. I'll ask the imperial chef to make something delicious with these eggs so that everyone can have a try." Zhao Qingrui took a look. Although she had never eaten it before, she knew that it was edible.
"Your Majesty, is this thing really non-toxic?" Someone hesitated.
"It's not poisonous, eat it without worry." Zhao Qingrui said calmly, "If you don't dare to eat it, then I'll try it first."
"Your Majesty, no, I am willing to be the one to taste the food." Feng Quji glared at the person who spoke, and then said quickly.
His Majesty said that there was no problem, and Feng Quji still trusted her very much.
"Yes, yes, I'd like to try it too." Li Si also echoed.
