Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Five: Treasures All Over The Body

Both of the uncles said it was not delicious, but everyone knew it just by looking at their eating habits.

At this moment, all doubts are gone.

Now, whether it is Emperor Hongzhi or the civil and military officials, they can't help but feel hungry.

Really edible?

It’s a lot of fun to see the Zhang brothers eating.

Although Emperor Hongzhi didn't care about the taste of this thing, the behind it was whether it could be used as food. In addition, it was the habit of this food.

I had too many questions in my heart, but it was obvious that the two brothers of the Zhang family were eating and that Emperor Hongzhi really wanted to kill them.

So Emperor Hongzhi could no longer hold it back and got off the imperial throne.

"Enough, step back!"

This is yelling at the Zhang brothers.

It's embarrassing. To be honest, Emperor Hongzhi really feels embarrassing.

If it weren't for the sake of his first wife, Emperor Hongzhi would have wanted to kill them many times. If he could tolerate it until now, it would also be obvious that Emperor Hongzhi's temper is not too bad.

Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling immediately showed grievance.

They knew that the last little good time... was over.

After burping, Zhang Heling looked resentful. Although he felt that he could stuff some more things in his stomach, neither of them was afraid of either of them. He was a little afraid of his brother-in-law, so he finally honestly stepped forward to the class with his big belly.

Emperor Hongzhi realized that he seemed to have gone too far. The emperor should have the majesty of the emperor, let alone such a solemn occasion.

But... today... he no longer cared about much.

This is just like Zhang Mao, who is usually quite steady, dares to enter the Jinshen Hall today.

Emperor Hongzhi walked over and looked at one of the bowls of sweet potato porridge. Because it was close, a fragrance came to his face.

If you look closely, the porridge water is very thin, but it looks pretty good with golden sweet potatoes.

only……

Emperor Hongzhi looked back at the ministers behind him. In fact, the officials could not sit still. If it weren't for the rituals and laws, they would have been robbed.

Everyone was patient and stretched their necks one by one, wanting to see what this thing looked like.

Liu Jian seemed anxious, and he wanted to rush to Fang Jifan immediately to find out.

Xie Qian was even more anxious, but his eyes were presbyopia. From such a distance, he couldn't see the appearance of sweet potatoes. However, he stared at Emperor Hongzhi's face, trying to get a glimpse of the truth from Emperor Hongzhi's face.

Li Dongyang is the Minister of Revenue. Even though he is usually very cunning, he is still in a hurry to stamp his feet.

"Come on the Jindun and chopsticks."

It was impossible to tell the name of the great name, so Emperor Hongzhi decided to try it himself.

After hearing this, the eunuch took Jindun and Emperor Hongzhi sat down next to the big stove.

Fang Jifan personally took a new bowl and scooped out the porridge from the pot. In order to show off, he deliberately scooped up a few more pieces of sweet potatoes.

"Your Majesty..." Xiao Jing, who was at this station, seemed nervous. He came behind Emperor Hongzhi and said, "Do you need to test it and confirm it is not poisonous?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked back at him, then looked at Fang Jifan, and then looked at the ragged and ragged farms behind Fang Jifan...

Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, then said, "Is this person named Zhang Xin?"

Zhang Xin seemed very reserved and hurriedly said, "I am Zhang Xin."

"And he!" Emperor Hongzhi pointed to another lieutenant and said, "I should have seen this lieutenant. The Yulin Guard guards the inner palace and protects my safety! These people were all from the palace at the beginning. But look at them, since they went to Xishan to cultivate farms, they were covered in wind and sun every day. I remember that they were all thin and tender skins, wearing fish suits and long swords, majestic. Now... hey... what else can I test? They will not harm me. Even if this fruit really cannot be used as food and cannot be eaten, but with this, even if they are inferior, they are all pillars of my Ming Dynasty and my humeral..."

This means, stop meddling in other people's business.

Xiao Jing was bored and had to stop saying a word.

But Zhang Xin and others were so excited that they burst into tears. In a blink of an eye, they became humerus and pillars.

In fact, no one is willing to endure hardship for any man, but it doesn’t matter if he ends hardship. The real bad thing is that even after suffering all the hardships, no one can see them, be forgotten, or even be disliked.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan again: "There is also Fang Jifan. He has a brain disease, but in order to share the worries of the court, he has worked hard and made great contributions. I... If even they don't believe it, who else can believe it in this world?"

It was finally my turn, and Fang Jifan was also very moved. He didn't click on his name just now. He thought he was ignored, but he didn't expect that he would be the finale.

He picked up the bowl and took the chopsticks in his hand. Emperor Hongzhi did not hesitate. He first picked up a piece of peeled and cooked sweet potato and put it gently into his mouth.

The things were imported, and a sweet feeling instantly stimulated Emperor Hongzhi's taste buds.

People in later generations may have been accustomed to the taste of sweet potatoes, not to mention that in that era when food was full of flowers, they did not think sweet potatoes were delicious.

But for Emperor Hongzhi who tasted it for the first time, this taste... he was slightly stunned.

This taste...is beyond his expectations.

With a hint of sweetness, it is surprisingly delicious.

Everyone stared at Emperor Hongzhi, hoping to find the answer in Emperor Hongzhi's face.

However, Emperor Hongzhi was silent. Under the eyes of everyone, he still took another sip of the porridge calmly, bringing warm porridge water into his stomach, which was different from the porridge before. This time, because of the sweet potatoes, the porridge water was also sweet, which was obviously much more delicious than the white porridge before.

Of course, Emperor Hongzhi was well-informed and had eaten some of everything, so it would not be too exaggerated.

But this is enough to make Emperor Hongzhi feel terrified. You must know that ordinary people are satisfied with being able to make porridge with yellow rice and fill their stomachs.

The yellow rice tasted extremely poor. After Wang Sanzhi, Emperor Hongzhi specially ordered people to use yellow rice to make porridge, wanting to see what Wang San usually eats. Even if the eunuchs bought the best yellow rice, the taste was still extremely inferior.

And this sweet potato... actually... Emperor Hongzhi's eyes lit up.

Of course, the taste and taste are not the main ones.

There is not much rice in this porridge. What he wants to know most is whether this thing can fill his stomach.

So he ate the small bowl of porridge in one breath.

Usually, he would chew slowly when he had a meal, but today he seemed to be eager to know the results, so the wind swept the rest of the clouds and finished eating in one breath. He couldn't help but burp, but he was a little overwhelmed.

Fang Jifan smiled and took a roasted sweet potato and gave it to him and said, "Your Majesty, this tastes better."

"Is that true?" Emperor Hongzhi took it with just a look and took it without hesitation.

When Fang Jifan took off the shell, he deliberately left a little base without peeling it, so as to facilitate Emperor Hongzhi to capture it. During this capture, Emperor Hongzhi's excellent maintenance hands immediately left two black and gray.

Xiao Jing was a little anxious.

But Emperor Hongzhi was happy. He didn't care. He gently tasted the roasted sweet potato with anticipation. Well... the taste was more intense than the sweet potato porridge just now, the meat was soft and fragrant! Sweet!

You know, ordinary people are usually reluctant to eat sugar.

But this sweet potato...

Emperor Hongzhi pulled his face down, and he suppressed his excitement: "This red..."

"Sweet potato." Fang Jifan was a little nervous. After all, the emperor had tasted all kinds of delicacies. If he felt that the taste was not good, the credit would be discounted. If he disliked it, he would be a big sale after he jumped off a building?

"Yes, sweet potato." Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan. There were still some things that he didn't dare to really be happy before he asked about it!

I'm afraid there is something wrong with this thing!

So he said seriously: "At that time, the yield per mu was thirty stones?"

Fang Jifan naturally understood the thoughts of Emperor Hongzhi and said, "The sweet potatoes produced by Zhang Xin, deputy households and the lieutenants of the school, were indeed thirty stones per mu. I think that if an ordinary person had a yield of twenty stones per mu, there would be no problem."

In fact, not to mention thirty or twenty, even ten stones are enough to live countless people.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Zhang Mao and knew that Fang Jifan should not have false reports. He thought about it and said, "How to store this thing?"

Fang Jifan said: "Just dig a cellar. Ordinary farmers have cellars. Even if they are newly digging, they are just some work. I think that if you promote sweet potatoes, Your Majesty can temporarily issue a decree to exempt the states and prefectures from half a month of labor service, so that the people can dig the cellars during the slack farming period."

It feels like it's more troublesome than building a barn, but it's not much trouble.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, and felt relieved.

"In addition..." Fang Jifan calmed down and continued: "If this sweet potato is dried, it can be made into dried potatoes and can be used as dry food; if it is ground into powder, it can be made into various foods like flour. In fact... If there are too many of this thing that people can't finish eating, it can also be used to feed livestock..."

This whole body is full of treasures.

Fang Jifan continued: "And..."

As he said that, he took out a sweet potato vine from his sleeve like a magic trick. There were many potato leaves on it. He raised it in front of Emperor Hongzhi and said, "This potato leaf can also be used to cook. It tastes pretty good. This vine can also be used to feed livestock."

Hongzhi was stunned when he heard this.

Why do you think this sweet potato is simply a fairy pill that fell from the sky.

No, the immortal pill can only make one person live forever, and the people saved by this sweet potato are afraid that they will exceed one million and ten million in the future.

Suddenly, Emperor Hongzhi thought of Wang San again in his mind.

If there were these sweet potatoes, how could there be so many kings?

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes were actually wet.8)
