Chapter 27 Inner Monologue, Li Shimin’s Confusion

 This is the content of the first piece of rice paper.

"Sweet potato seeds? What are these?!"

Li Shimin was slightly startled.

Kuan'er started cultivating it in November last year until August this year, so time-consuming and labor-intensive, just for these sweet potato seeds?!

Li Shimin is extremely curious.

I quickly picked up the second piece of rice paper and checked it.

The second content mainly introduces the growth cycle of sweet potato seeds. It is said that the soil in the basement is better than outside. The fourth generation sweet potato seeds, which originally matured in three months, only need two months in the basement.

Including the previous cultivation time, he spent a total of 9 months in the basement to cultivate the fourth generation sweet potato seeds, while if he had done it outside, it would have taken at least a year.

No nutritional content.

Open the third piece of rice paper.

Li Shimin could still remain calm at first, but when he saw one of the messages, he froze in place.

Immediately afterwards.

Shocked!!

Sluggish!!

Shocked!!

Unbelievable!!!

Just because there is a message on the third piece of rice paper.

[The sweet potatoes grown from the fourth-generation sweet potato seeds are exactly the same as in the memory. They can be identified as unrestricted planting areas, including fertile soil and barren soil.]

[And the sweet potato yield per mu is six thousand to ten thousand catties, but that is calculated based on ten taels per catty, and in the Tang Dynasty, sixteen taels is one catty, so the specific yield per mu is four thousand to six thousand catties.

.】

"The yield per mu is four thousand to six thousand catties!!!"

Li Shimin couldn't help but stand up from his chair, his eyes widened and he almost lost his voice.

"Ah?!"

Over there, little Sizi, who was still attending school as a guest and tasting tea like an adult, was shocked.

"Father, what's going on? If you get startled, you're going to scare me to death!!"

Although his heart was extremely shocked, Li Shimin still chose to comfort his youngest daughter first, forcing a smile and saying: "Father is fine, little Sizi, please wait a moment, we will have a meal together later."

Xiao Sizi couldn't help but think of sweet and sour pork ribs, so she happily agreed without worrying about being frightened just now.

Seeing that the little guy was fine, Li Shimin looked at the third piece of rice paper with fear.

The yield per mu is 4,000 to 6,000 kilograms!!

This...

How incredible this is!!

His eyes were wide open, looking at the rice paper as if he were looking at a monster.

Although Li Shimin is the most powerful person, he still understands the most basic people's livelihood.

Since ancient times,

Even in the most fertile farmland, the grain yield per mu is only more than 300 kilograms, but this sweet potato can reach more than 4,000 kilograms. How is this possible?!

And.

Most ordinary grains are cultivated in spring and bear fruit in autumn, which takes at least half a year.

And this sweet potato is not only high-yield,

Don’t worry about whether the farmland is fertile or not, it can bear fruit once every three months.

This...

How shocking!!

Does such an incredible thing really exist?!

Reason told Li Shimin that this was impossible.

But this matter happened to his own Kuan'er, so he was not sure.

If true.

So,

This will become a real Anguo thing!!

The reason why farming in the north cannot be done this year is because, firstly, the fertile fields have been damaged by locusts, and secondly, planting takes at least half a year, but it is August now, and in four months, there will be heavy snow in the north, making farming impossible.

In comparison, the south is much better.

That's why Changsun Wuji and others suggested moving the planting to the south.

And if the sweet potatoes on the rice paper are real,

Then they can cultivate sweet potatoes in the north and have a bumper harvest in November.

Cultivate sweet potatoes in the north,

At the same time, disaster victims in the north can be engaged in planting and solving resettlement problems.

This sweet potato can provide a good harvest, provide livelihood for the victims of the disaster in the north, and provide high yield.

How could this not be a thing of Anguo!!!

If it is really highly productive, will people in the Tang Dynasty starve to death in the future?!

Excited!!

Surprise!!

Excited!!

Looking at the red round thing in my hand,

Li Shimin was ecstatic when he thought about the future possibilities this thing had.

"Kuan'er, Kuan'er, if this thing is true, you are doing great service for the Tang Dynasty, the entire Tang Dynasty! Not you personally!!"

"In the past dynasties, countless people died of starvation. What you did will make our Tang Dynasty and even the Tang Dynasty thousands and thousands of years from now. There will no longer be hungry people!!"

Li Shimin's eyes are extremely hot.

But he knows that all this is based on the fact that sweet potatoes are real.

"Come here!!"

I waved and a eunuch came immediately.

"Your Majesty."

The eunuch squatted half down.

"Go, cook these sweet potatoes according to normal cooking methods. I will see the results when I come back from dinner later."

Li Shimin handed two sweet potatoes to the eunuch.

According to the record on the rice paper, sweet potatoes can be cooked by boiling them and will have a fragrant aroma. He wanted to see if the record was true.

The eunuch was worried, what is this? Can it really be cooked?!

But he was just confused, how dare he ask the emperor, and hurriedly left with the sweet potatoes.

Li Shimin hid the remaining sweet potatoes and sweet potato seeds in the most secret place of Tai Chi Palace. When he hid the rice paper at the same time, he became suspicious.

"Eh? There's a fourth piece of rice paper?!"

Li Shimin's eyes twinkled.

He saw only three pieces just now. He must have been carried away by the great news and neglected to check the remaining rice paper.

Holding hope.

He opened the fourth piece of rice paper.

[On August 22nd, Yinshi, I couldn’t sleep. I tossed and turned and still couldn’t fall asleep. The reason was probably because I had to leave the little one at noon today and head to the north.]

[Because I am going to the north today, I have taken care of everything in the Imperial City, but...I always feel guilty when facing the little one, even because she doesn't want to leave the Imperial City.]

[It’s hard to believe that I would be bound by the so-called family ties. I originally despised children and thought that children who cry and make mischief are far less comfortable than going fishing, but she has become an exception.]

[People often say that when you clearly put a price on someone and will never compromise if the requirements are not met, but suddenly give the green light to someone who does not meet the requirements, this is like it.]

[Obviously, I like the little guy very much. From then on, she was brought up by me. Although she often misbehaved and often got me into trouble, I was happy to handle her funeral affairs. This kind of care for her life has led to her growing up.

, and it also makes me intoxicated.]

[I have to admit that I have regarded the little guy as a real relative. This has also made my heart like duckweed in the Tang Dynasty have the harbor of home for the first time, and also know what home is for the first time.]

[Looking at the entire Li Tang royal family, there is only one little guy who I can call my relative. This is the sorrow of me, Li Kuan, or... the sorrow of the Li Tang royal family...]

Boom!!

Read all content,

Li Shimin's eyes were red and filled with tears, and his hands were tightly holding the rice paper.

Kuan'er...

How do you view the Li family!!!

Li Shimin couldn't believe it.

Thinking about it carefully, from Kuan'er's rice paper, the previous three pictures only related to Xiao Sizi and never mentioned other brothers and sisters.

He, Empress Changsun and other relatives were never mentioned.

Trembling!!

His whole body was shaking!!

The body soon stopped shaking.

Silent.

Looking at Li Shimin at this time, we can see that his eyes are extremely helpless, and his whole person is as pale and weak as if he was fished out of the water.

"Family affection, have I neglected it?"

Li Shimin looked up at the sky, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness for the first time.
