In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Early that morning, Yin was about to go to Jiankang to ask for a title for Yunfeng.

Yunfeng had promised to send thirty personal guards to accompany him to ensure safety, but he still needed his personal guards to do something for him along the way.

He called five of them over, took out a drawing and handed it over and said: "The picture on the picture is called sweet potato, produced in Zhuya (Hainan Island). The five of you escorted Mr. Yin to Jiankang and left on your own.

I will find this thing for you."

Sweet potato is a good thing. It has a large yield. It doesn’t need to pick the land. It doesn’t need to be taken care of when planted. It can be eaten by both humans and animals.

Everyone thinks that sweet potatoes were introduced to China from Luzon in the Ming Dynasty, but in his previous life, Yunfeng had read "The Shape of Southern Plants and Trees" written by General Zhenwu of the Western Jin Dynasty and the prefect of Xiangyang, Ji Han.

There is a saying in the book: "Sweet potatoes: roots and leaves are like taro, as solid as a fist, some are as big as an ou, with purple skin and white flesh... In the old Zhuya land, no one in the sea is engaged in farming.

But digging the ground and planting sweet potatoes to supplement the grain is called potato grain..."

It can be seen from this article that China is also the origin of sweet potatoes. As for why it did not spread and was introduced from Luzon, this is not a problem that Yunfeng needs to be concerned about. He only needs to bring the sweet potatoes over and plant them himself.

The five people passed it around and read it separately, put it in their arms and hid it, and saluted: "Please rest assured, general, I will definitely live up to the general's trust."

Yunfeng nodded and warned: "It's a long way to go and we need to cross the sea. We must pay attention to safety and don't conflict with the local natives." He looked up at the sky and continued: "Okay, it's time.

It's almost time. I will go with you to see Mr. Yin off."

............

Yunfeng's schedule was very full and he lived a busy life every day. However, at this time, Guanzhong was plunged into panic and chaos.

The 100,000-strong army was annihilated and You Ziyuan was defeated and killed. These two pieces of heavy news filled the city of Chang'an with a tense atmosphere. As soon as there was a slight disturbance, rumors immediately spread, and the rumors were so vivid that they had noses and eyes.

They are all spreading to Liangzhou that the three-party coalition forces of Yao Gezhong and Pu Hong are about to take advantage of the victory to attack Guanzhong. The size of the army has increased from 200,000 at the beginning to 400,000, and later to 500,000. The latest version is an army of 800,000!

It has been assembled in Shanggui and is heading towards Guanzhong. Jiehu in the east responded to the Liang, Qiang, and Di coalition forces and sent 500,000 troops from Luoyang to attack Chang'an!

As a result, the faces of pedestrians on the street were solemn, the doors and windows of every house were closed, and almost no shops were open for business. It was a depression!

Of course, Liu Yao strictly suppressed the rumors, but his actions made the atmosphere in the city even more tense. Soldiers gathered in groups on the streets, strictly monitoring every pedestrian passing by. However, how could the people of the world speak out?

Are you so easy to block? The more you behave like this, the more serious people will take it. People will not spread the word in person, but they will spread the word even more fiercely in private.

There are countless rumors about Yunfeng. Because he killed 40,000 surrendered soldiers, the people in Guanzhong painted him as a devil. They said he was nine feet long, thick in build, with eyes like copper bells, and a green face with fangs!

He also said that he had to drink wine with living human hearts and livers for every meal, cook and eat two babies for every meal, and need ninety-nine and eighty-one virgins to sleep with him every night...

In short, all kinds of shit basins were thrown at Yunfeng's head. Shang Zhou and Xia Jie were nothing compared to him!

In addition, he has also been given an important function: to stop children from crying at night! Once a child in a house cries at night and refuses to sleep, the adults only need to show a straight face and mention Yunfeng's name.

"Cry again? If you cry again, Yunfeng will come. I'll catch you, throw you into a pot and cook you..."

The child was immediately trembling with fear and did not dare to make any more noise. Although the tears were still flowing, fortunately, the crying finally stopped!

People outside were panic-stricken, and Liu Yao in the palace was also filled with worry and anger. He wished he could catch Pu Hong and eat his flesh and sleep on his skin. Otherwise, he would not be able to relieve the resentment in his heart! He understood that after this battle, the strength of Zhao State would be greatly reduced.

The great reduction has become an indisputable fact. There will no longer be any spare power to launch foreign wars. It is already very good to be able to defend this three-acre area in Guanzhong.

"Your Majesty, you'd better eat something. You didn't eat all day yesterday. If you continue like this, your body will be unable to bear it."

Liu Yao turned around and saw a middle-aged woman walking over with a bowl of soup. It was his queen Yang Xianrong.

Speaking of which, she was Yang Ming's younger sister (cousin). She was established as the second queen of Emperor Hui of Jin shortly after Jianan Feng Fu was executed. She was also deposed and established during the Eight Kings Rebellion. It can be said that she has gone through many vicissitudes of life.

In June of the sixth year of Emperor Huai's Yuanjia reign (311), Liu Yao and Wang Mi broke into Luoyang, and Yang Xianrong inevitably became a prisoner. At this time, she was already over thirty years old, and after many years of suffering, she no longer had any traces of disease on her body.

She didn't look any less charming than before. However, things were unpredictable. Unexpectedly, she was regarded as a heavenly being by Liu Yao and was immediately named the Princess of Zhongshan.

In the first year of Taixing (318), Liu Yao proclaimed himself emperor, and Yang Xianrong was made queen. She was not only favored, but also participated in the government affairs.

Liu Yao sighed: "Only 4,000 of the 100,000-strong army have returned, and You Qing has been killed by the enemy. Every time I think about this, I can't help but feel extremely sad. How can I still think about filling my stomach?"

Yang Xianrong shook his head and said: "As the leader of a country, how can you be depressed by a temporary setback? Nowadays, rumors are spreading in Guanzhong and the people are uneasy. Your Majesty is needed to set an example and appease the people." Then, Yang Xianrong smiled slightly.

With a smile: "Come, Your Majesty, I will serve you something to eat. After eating, I will accompany you out of the palace to relax."

Liu Yao reluctantly took two bites and asked: "Xianrong, now my great Zhao's vitality is seriously injured and I am surrounded by enemies on all sides. What should I do?"

Yang Xianrong pondered for a long time and then suggested: "Your Majesty's biggest enemy at present is none other than Shile. Although the two states of Qin and Liang are located in the back of your Majesty, Qinzhou is a mess of scattered sand, and Liangzhou is located in a remote area with a small land and a small population, so it is difficult to form a

Substantial threat.

Moreover, it was difficult for the army to go to Liangzhou to supply supplies, so You Ziyuan had to go to Nan'an to grab food, which gave Pu Hong the opportunity to betray His Majesty. Based on the lessons learned from the past, Your Majesty should not use troops against Liangzhou anymore. He must temporarily appease and make peace and concentrate his troops.

To the east, to resist Shi Le's invasion.

It will be a safe strategy to wait for Zhao to regain his strength after a few years, and then adopt a step-by-step approach to gradually encroach on the two states of Qin and Liang."

Liu Yao thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Although Pu Hong was the cause of the defeat, I cannot shirk my responsibility. The defeat of Shi Sheng only breeds arrogance, which leads to the eagerness for quick success and quick gain, causing the death of one hundred thousand of my soldiers. Now the national crisis is approaching.

, What Xianrong said is indeed the best policy, but I have already been at odds with Liangzhou, how can we make peace and make peace?"

Yang Xianrong smiled and said: "Your Majesty, could you have forgotten that Liu Yueru, the former eldest princess of Han Dynasty, is now the wife of Mu Yunfeng of Liangzhou, and I heard that she is quite favored. In terms of seniority, she is your Majesty's younger sister.

, according to my concubine, Your Majesty

You might as well write a letter and send it to Liu Yueru to express your family affection. If she recognizes you as your brother, it will show that Liangzhou has no intention of becoming an enemy of Zhao, and then send formal envoys to make peace with it. Your Majesty thinks

how?"

Liu Yao couldn't help frowning, stroking his beard and saying with a smile: "This is a very good plan to present your face. She deserves the name of a talented woman. Okay, I will write a letter and send it to Guzang immediately!"

Yang Xianrong quickly fetched pen and ink, and helped Liu Yao write a letter home. Soon, hundreds of words were written out eloquently.

After Liu Yao ordered his attendants to send away the letter, Yang Xianrong brought the soup again and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please eat quickly. After eating, I will accompany your Majesty to the city to appease the people."
