After the matter of supporting Xu Changqing gradually became known to more people, Li Chen now has enough confidence and confidence to say such things.
This is not only power, but also allows everyone to see that the Prince of the East Palace really takes practical actions to support his confidants, instead of immediately considering abandoning the car to save money once something happens to the people below.
Handsome master.
This impression will greatly enhance Li Chen's status in the eyes of court officials.
After all, no one wants to follow a master who will abandon them at any time.
When Su Jinpa heard this, he stopped talking.
After all, he is no more than a governor of the capital. What the future holds depends on Zheng Baorong's ability.
But at least for now, he is just a pawn, far from being able to affect any situation.
"By the way, Your Highness, there is good news!"
Su Jinpa suddenly said with great interest, "The sweet potatoes we planted have already produced their first batch of fruits!"
Li Chen was surprised when he heard this: "So soon? I thought it would take at least until spring in February before it really comes out? How is the output?"
Su Jinpa covered his mouth and said with a smile: "With your royal highness's death order, whether it is the hunting ground or the Liu family, they have been living in the field almost day and night."
"And the farmers brought by the Liu family are indeed experienced. The hunting ground and the Liu family did not treat them badly, and provided them with delicious food and drinks."
"With such good treatment and no worries, they took more care of the sweet potatoes, so the first batch of fruits came out yesterday."
"Originally, someone should have come to the East Palace to report yesterday, but I stopped them. Only a few plants came out yesterday. Plus today, at least half of them will bear fruit. Only in this way can we calculate the accurate yield. But as far as the current situation is concerned,
Said, it is already much better than other crops."
This good news made Li Chen feel very happy. He said: "When I return to Beijing, I will go to the royal hunting ground immediately. If this thing is 10%, there will be room for many things to be done. I dare to promote it before spring plowing.
Then this year, the impact of the disaster will be minimized!"
Su Jinpa looked at Li Chen's excitement and hesitated. She felt that Li Chen was too optimistic, but just as he was about to speak, there was a strange noise outside the carriage.
"Your Highness, some people spontaneously came to thank Your Highness."
Before Li Chen could ask, Sambo immediately reported over.
Li Chen was stunned. He had just left Guanhai Academy not long ago. Zheng Baorong had just announced the cancellation of the excessive levies and miscellaneous taxes that ordinary people should not have. How come the news spread so fast?
After the carriage stopped, Li Chen stepped out of the carriage and saw dozens of people kneeling on both sides of the official road.
Sanbao came over and said softly: "Your Highness, these people are relatives of the fishermen who fought before. They are always guarding Weihaiwei Yamen. I saw them before when I went to verify what Zheng Baorong said. Now they should be the first
After receiving the news, I rushed over to thank His Highness."
"My lord, please accept your thanks from me, my humble servants!"
In the crowd, an old man with gray hair shouted first, then bowed his head.
With him taking the lead, dozens of other people shouted similar words one after another and kowtowed to Li Chen.
Li Chen jumped off the carriage, walked to the old man, helped him up personally, and after everyone got up, he asked the old man: "I don't have to be so polite, I just did what I should do...
...My father-in-law will live a long life this year?"
