Chapter 679

Li Qieyou can also see that although this Wenzai monk is a Buddhist, he is not a pedantic generation. Otherwise, how could he cheat in Huxian county?

Just now, when he said that someone had done evil, monk Wenzai's face obviously showed the color of righteous anger.

What's more, if the monk wants to get the customs clearance documents and go to the western regions, he still has to ask him. Xuanzang and his monks couldn't get the customs clearance documents, but it's just that Li forgot his worries. What's the difficulty.

As long as he is willing to come forward, whether it is Li Er or Fang Xuanling, he will give some face.

Li forgot to worry. He took a sip of tea and talked about what had happened between him and five surnames and seven hopes in a leisurely manner over the past year.

But listening to monk Wenzai and Daniel Lin, their faces became more and more dignified.

After hearing that the aristocratic family dared to collude with the palace maids to replace the prince born by the queen with a baby girl, even monk Wenzai couldn't help slapping on several cases, which made the tea clang.

"How rampant! How dare these aristocratic families? They are animals!"

For the people of the Tang Dynasty, especially Wenzai, who experienced the chaos in the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty, even if he was a monk, he still respected the Tang Dynasty and the royal family of the Li Tang Dynasty.

This is also China's awe of imperial power for thousands of years.

The Li Tang Dynasty was established only more than ten years ago, but now no one is going to read the benefits of the former Sui Dynasty. Among scholars, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was labeled with words such as abuse of people's power, extravagance and lust, immorality and so on.

Instead, it was loyalty and submission to the Li Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, monk Wenzai was so angry when he heard that the aristocratic family dared to disturb the court.

"The noble man must have had a plan, but I don't know what the noble man wants the poor monk to do?" monk Wenzai calmed down a little and recited a Buddha's name. Then he looked at Li forget his worries.

Seeing that Wenzai was willing to help, Li forgot to worry. Naturally, he smiled and motioned Niu Wu to guard outside. He didn't let irrelevant people close to the monk's house, so he lowered his voice and whispered to Wenzai and his disciple Lin Daniu

Soon after Li forgets worry and Wenzai's master and apprentice had a secret conversation, they left Jianfu temple without a trace. No one thinks anything different about this matter. After all, it's just a wandering monk and no one cares.

In a flash, in the middle of February of the third year of Zhenguan, Li forgot his worries and was called into the palace by Li Er's orders.

"Ziyou, the Secretary of the temple came to report that the potato had begun to turn yellow, wither and wither. According to your previous statement, it was ripe and ready for harvest?"

In fact, Li Er had long forgotten about potatoes. Today, after hearing the report from the Secretary of the temple, he remembered this matter and ordered someone to call Li forgetful into the palace for inquiry.

Li forget worry has been busy with other things recently. Li Er doesn't mention it. He almost forgot about potatoes.

Counting the days, I think it should be almost the time for potatoes to mature.

"Uncle, this is a good thing. If this potato can be cultivated, Datang will have no shortage of food in the future."

Thinking that he would soon be able to taste the delicious food of potato stewed beef, French fries and potato chips, Li forgot to worry about his saliva.

Li Er said with a smile, "if this potato can yield ten stones per mu, as Ziyou said, it will be a blessing in the world."

Although he said so, his expression clearly showed that he didn't believe it.

This is not to blame Li Er. After all, before the introduction of high-yield crops such as potatoes, corn and sweet potato into China, the yield per mu in China has been only about one stone since ancient times. No one can believe that there are crops that can produce ten stones per mu.

Although Li forgot his worries and even swore that potatoes could produce ten stones per mu, both Li Er and Cheng Yaojin were just skeptical.

"Uncle, it seems that you still don't believe what my nephew said before. Hey hey, fortunately, the potatoes are mature now. You can tell when you dig them out." Li forgets worry and doesn't explain much. Seeing is believing, so it's useless to say more.

Li forgets worry and thinks that in the future, the potato should be promoted without the support of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty. Then he takes this opportunity to call these big men to the Si Nong temple and witness it with his own eyes.

"Uncle, why don't you invite Fang Xiang and Du Xiang? Let everyone see the yield of potatoes? By the way, uncle Cheng should also invite them."

Li Er looked at him: "Ziyou, are you really so confident?"

Li Qieyou nodded with certainty and joked that it was a potato!

In the Tang Dynasty, potatoes can almost affect the lives of people all over the world. It can't be overemphasized. Moreover, potatoes do not need to be harvested, threshed or ground. Potatoes harvested from the land can even be eaten directly by baking in the fire. It is too convenient.

And Li also knows that this potato not only contains high-quality starch, which can provide rich calories for the human body, but also is rich in protein, vitamin B and vitamin C, which is indeed a treasure.

Li forgets worry and even estimates that after potatoes are popularized in China, people don't have to worry about famine for at least hundreds of years. As for the long-term future, he can't control it.

Seeing that Li forgot his worries so firmly, Li Er pondered for a while, so he asked Mituo to pass on Fang Xuanling and others, and directly went to the Si Nong temple to see him.

The Shanglin Department of Si Nong temple is in charge of the royal gardens and ponds, responsible for planting fruits and vegetables, and storing ice in winter for Royal enjoyment in summer.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, who were recruited to the Si Nong Temple by Mituo, were confused at this time.

"I've seen your majesty. I've called ministers to come to the Si Nong Temple today, but what's the matter?" Fang Xuanling asked.

Li Er pointed to Li forgetful and said, "Fang Gong, ask this boy."

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui don't know about potatoes. They don't understand what medicine they sell in their gourds. They can only look at Li forgetful again.

But Cheng Yaojin suddenly laughed: "Wow, your majesty, but when the day worries, what potato does the boy say is ripe?"

Li forgot to worry and said with a smile, "Uncle Cheng is right, that is, the potato is ripe and can be harvested. Therefore, today, I asked my uncle to invite all the princes to have a look at the potato crop."

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other and asked, "Ziyou, what potato?"

Li forgot to worry and quickly told the whole story. When Fang Xuanling learned that there were ten stones per mu and that he could plant two crops a year, the whole person was stunned.

"Ziyou, you're not talking nonsense? How could this be possible? How could there be such crops in the world? If so, wouldn't there be no famine in the world?" Fang Xuanling's eyes were staring out, and his face couldn't believe it.

Du Ruhui also shook his head: "I've never heard of it, and I've seen records of such magical crops in any ancient books. Ziyou, how did you know?"

Li forgets to worry, shrugs his shoulders, and tells the story of Li Er and Cheng Yaojin. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui can only shake their heads.

"Hey, uncle and gentlemen, believe it or not, you can witness it with your own eyes today. Can you deceive you, young nephew?"

Hearing Li forgetful worry say so, people can only nod their heads. Under the leadership of Si Nong Temple secretary, they walk to the place where the forest department grows fruits and vegetables
