C411 Real Estate of the Royal Family
He couldn't help but feel sad.
This was the thing of hope.
It was an auspicious object.
He thought that the heavens were compensating the Qin Country for the disasters that had happened in the past year, giving the Qin Country a ray of hope.
However, this hope had completely disappeared when it was placed in front of him.
It was better to have no hope at all than to have no hope at all!
He listened to the First Prince's incessant clamoring and cursing, especially the slandering of Xiao Yun.
His Majesty was burning with rage.
He fiercely slapped him.
"At least he tried!"
Yes, even if the potato was wrong.
Xiao Yun also tried.
He also tried his best.
He could totally go sightseeing outside and ignore the Qin Country.
However, when he returned, he still brought with him hope.
Such a person could not be slandered.
At the very least, he could not be a member of the royal family.
If Xiao Yun had heard this, how disappointed would he be?
The First Prince was struck dumb.
It was also because it was too sudden and too forceful.
He was now lying on the ground.
He covered his face.
He opened his mouth.
He couldn't say a word.
His Majesty took a deep breath and said to the eunuch beside him, "Go, call Xiao Yun to see Zhen."
After a while, he said, "No, invite him over."
One called, and the other invited.
The meaning behind this was not just a little bit.
The horse sped up.
Xiao Yun quickly received the news.
In addition to His Majesty's decree, there was also a piece of paper that the eunuch asked someone to put in.
He told him that he could go overseas to have a tour first, and that he could not insist on meeting His Majesty.
Xiao Yun smiled and burned the paper.
Then, he went to the Imperial Palace alone.
"Look, there's a problem, right?"
Xiao Yun spread his hands and said helplessly.
His Majesty's face became very ugly.
But he still squeezed out a smile and said, "Sigh, this is also something that can't be helped. Something like auspicious signs... It is indeed not that easy to obtain. Zhen also understands Saint Xiao's good intentions. However... Sigh, time is also fate. This matter cannot be blamed on you. "
" Ah? "
Xiao Yun was stunned.
He said in surprise, "This matter... why did it become the fault of the peasants? The peasant didn't do anything wrong, did he?"
"That's right, of course it is!"
His Majesty hurriedly said, "Saint Xiao being able to bring this thing back was originally a great merit, but this thing... Sigh. "
Xiao Yun was stunned again.
Then he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Wait, Your Majesty, please wait. Why do the peasants feel that something is wrong the more they listen? That auspicious sign... No, is there a problem with the potatoes? "
His Majesty sighed and said," Yes, Saint Xiao should not know. That's true... Zhen did not explain in advance. "
As he spoke, he sent people to deliver the rotten potatoes to Xiao Yun.
The corners of Xiao Yun's eyes twitched.
Then he sighed helplessly and said, "As expected. Sigh, it was exactly what the peasants thought... The grasslanders had previously told His Majesty that if all of them were to be placed in the royal family... It was likely that something big would happen! Wasn't that so? Spending a lot of money and not willing to waste anything. Using something that would cause one's heart to ache... is this how it is now? It was wasted just like that?"
He raised his head and looked at His Majesty with a helpless expression. He said, "I finally understand. According to what His Majesty said just now, I'm afraid His Majesty doesn't think this potato is good enough, right? But His Majesty also saw that the potato is in the hut of the grasslanders. But it looks good. How could he forget it so quickly? "
"Hmm? "
His Majesty suddenly stood up.
His eyes widened.
That's right!
How could he have forgotten?
Xiao Yun had planted this potato, and it had grown into a tender shoot!
Why was it not good? Why was it sh * t?
His tiger eyes widened, and a wave of blood energy surged.
When the power of an emperor was released, it naturally made people shudder.
Xiao Yun sighed and said, "This potato is just rotten. This is how rotten potatoes are. The smell was especially unpleasant. It was really no different from feces. This is its characteristic, and also what the grasslanders repeatedly emphasized. But what? "
Xiao Yun raised his head to look at His Majesty and continued to sigh, "The grasslanders have repeatedly said that to store this thing, the temperature must be suitable. It cannot be too hot or too cold. As for how to control it, there must be someone specifically to look after it for twenty-four hours. In the end, look, why did it rot? Wasn't it still too hot? If that piece of meat is thrown into a warm and damp room, Your Majesty, say: Will it rot? "
His Majesty did not say anything.
He was afraid that he could only grit his teeth and not directly scold someone.
Xiao Yun continued, "What kind of negligence would cause the potato to be so rotten? Isn't it good to eat it? Save it well and wait for spring to start farming, isn't it good? Wasn't it good to experiment? Your Majesty, for the time being, we should put it aside and cause such a huge ruckus. We have lost so much... The grasslanders were helpless. They did not feel sorry for the process of transporting them back with great difficulty. It was that there were only so many potatoes. If there were no more... The grasslanders were obtained by chance, and then they went to that place. But no matter what, they would not be able to find it. Therefore, even if some people in the court called it auspicious, the grasslanders did not refuse because it was possible that the heavens had done it through the hands of the grasslanders. It was given to Qin Country. But now, the peasant didn't think so. This was a reward to the peasant. Instead, the Qin Country almost destroyed them!"
These words were too serious.
His Majesty's face immediately turned ashen.
He kept taking deep breaths to calm himself down.
But could he really calm down?
Xiao Yun did not seem to have vented his anger.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Wu Xi, Prime Minister Wu, this is a corrupt official known by the world. When he found out about the potato, he told the commoner a number. 337,936 households, does His Majesty know what this number represents? "
His Majesty squeezed out a voice through the gaps between his teeth." Fifty-six years ago, after three consecutive natural disasters, the Jiangnan Road had all fled. In the end, less than one out of ten survived. This number is the number of registered households in the Jiangnan Road. "
Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Prime Minister Wu experienced this incident back then. It became a pain for him for the rest of his life. Now that he knew about potato, he put down his authority and status. He gave up everything and was willing to be a small farmer in the courtyard of the peasants... "
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yun gritted his teeth and said," It is this kind of precious thing that is treated like this? This way? "
He suddenly raised his hand and threw the rotten potato onto the floor of the study in front of His Majesty.
Pa!
The potato turned into mud and scattered.
This sound was like a slap to His Majesty's face!
"Little brat Xiao, you go back first. Zhen will give you an explanation!"
Xiao Yun suddenly sneered and looked at the other rotten potatoes. The corner of his eyes twitched violently.
"Give an explanation to the peasants? What did the peasant want to hand over? The peasants did not have to worry about food and clothing, and they were very capable. The Gold Hidden Pavilion was spread all over the world. Even if 99% of the people in the world were going to starve to death, the peasants would still be able to eat until their heads were full of fat. This potato was nothing more than a bite of the potato. However, they would not eat it all the time, nor would they eat it all the time. It doesn't matter to the grasslanders whether they have it or not. They don't need any explanation."
After saying this, Xiao Yun turned around and left.
He left very rudely.
The eunuch originally wanted to reach out and stop him, but he had to at least make Xiao Yun do the ceremony and etiquette of leaving.
However, his extended hand was retracted with a sigh.
Even from his standpoint, he would feel that the royal family had let Xiao Yun down!
In the end, Xiao Yun was still not used to the ways of the world.
Even if he tried his best to change something in this life.
But he was still that killer.
The most rational killer who had never failed.
The things he had experienced in his past life had made him extremely annoyed with a kind of person.
That was... someone who overestimates his abilities!
That was how the royal family was.
Anything good that was in their hands could cause some problems.
Those were a bunch of people who would kick away a golden brick when they saw it on the ground.
When His Majesty wanted to take the potato away, Xiao Yun also reminded him.
Originally, he didn't want to give the potato to the royal family to make.
Instead, he should give them to some big merchants, or the Xiao family should make them themselves. At least, when there were enough of them, he would distribute them to the whole country. Teaching knowledge and releasing seeds were all extremely complicated. It could even be said that it was a matter of effort and not of ingratiation.
But he admitted it!
Because it was valuable.
And if the royal family took it away, there was another benefit, which was that they did not need to be suspected by the royal family.
After all, for a young son of a large family to go out and bribe the hearts of the people of the world, this was the most taboo thing in the royal family.
Just like how Xiao Yun was currently throwing a temper at His Majesty, it was fine.
But if he went out to be a good person and buy people's hearts, His Majesty would definitely not tolerate him.
