Chapter 461 This potato field is contracted by you

A letter from Emperor Wen disrupted Yunzheng's original itinerary.

Although the imperial city is far away from Shuobei, there is no guarantee that Emperor Wen will come all the way.

After all, Emperor Wen was also someone who had been personally conquered by the emperor, so it would certainly not be a problem to lead a group of cavalry on a journey.

Moreover, when he, the emperor, travels, who in the states and counties along the way dares not to prepare supplies for them in advance?

Therefore, Emperor Wen did not need to carry too many supplies at all.

If Emperor Wen was ruthless, he could kill from the Imperial City to Shuobei in about half a month.

Of course, the possibility of Emperor Wen doing this is very small.

After all, he is the emperor, and even if the accompanying servants travel by carriage and horse, as long as there is a lot of pomp and circumstance, the speed cannot be increased.

Yun Zheng calculated the time for Emperor Wen to get from the imperial city to Shuobei, which was about twenty-five days.

No matter what, they had to get to Beiluguan three days in advance.

Even if Emperor Wen had rushed to Shuobei since receiving the heads of Hu Jie and others, they still had about ten days to rush to Beiluguan.

However, Yunzheng still has many things on his hands.

Ten days is not enough time.

The key is, since it’s a pick-up, you definitely need to make some preparations.

After Yunzheng spent a day arranging various matters at Gubian, he immediately set off for Dingbei with Shen Luoyan, Miaoyin and the others.

On the way, Yunzheng stopped by to check the defenses of Suining Guard and Jing'an Guard.

Although the Baishui River is now thawed, the defense of Suining Guard and Jing'an Guard cannot be relaxed.

These two acropolis are equivalent to their rear guards.

Four days later, they arrived in Dingbei.

Yun Zheng didn't have time to rest, so he hurriedly called Ye Zi to check on the potato planting situation. Shen Luoyan was left behind by Mrs. Shen to learn more about their battles.

"Look at you like this."

Ye Zi looked at Yunzheng with tenderness on his face, "Don't worry, I know you attach great importance to those sweet potatoes. I have people keep an eye on the sweet potatoes every day. Those sweet potatoes are growing very well, but I don't know what you say." If you insert it in this way, will you be able to survive?"

"Can live!"

Yun Zheng said firmly: "Even if I can't survive all of them, I should be able to survive most of them!"

Although he knew how to grow sweet potatoes, he had never grown them himself in his previous life.

He didn't dare to talk too much.

However, he believes that if you cultivate it carefully, you can definitely grow sweet potatoes.

As long as half of the sweet potato seedlings that can be cut this year survive, planting can be fully promoted next year.

"Well, I believe you!"

Ye Zi nodded gently and asked again: "I heard that you were injured. Is the injury healed?"

"Basically recovered."

Yun Zheng chuckled and winked at Ye Zi, "I'm as strong as a cow now!"

Ye Zi didn't understand what he meant.

Facing Yun Zheng's gaze, Ye Zi couldn't help but think of the night before Yun Zheng left Dingbei.

Thinking of the beautiful scenes that night, Ye Zi's face began to feel hot, and a red cloud quietly climbed up her cheeks.

"No formality!"

Ye Zi spat lightly, not daring to look at Yun Zheng's burning eyes.

Yunzheng laughed and quickly followed Ye Zi to the official field where sweet potatoes were grown.

Ye Zi knew that Yunzheng valued these sweet potatoes, and specially sent a group of soldiers to guard here, strictly prohibiting anyone from destroying these sweet potatoes.

This land was specially selected by Ye Zi and was very fertile.

After such a long period of growth, the sweet potato vine has grown about one foot.

In another ten days and a half, the cuttings should be ready.

Yunzheng jumped off the horse and helped Ye Zi off the horse.

After stopping the accompanying guards, Yun Zheng took Ye Zi's hand and walked into the sweet potato field.

Ye Zi didn't lie to him, these rows of sweet potatoes were indeed growing very well.

Yun Zheng knelt down and held a sweet potato seedling in his hand fondly.

Ye Zi felt that Yunzheng looked at the potato seedlings as if he were looking at a peerless beauty.

After a while, Yunzheng asked Ye Zi again: "Is the transplanting ground ready?"

"done."

Ye Zi nodded slightly and asked, "Is five hundred acres of land too much?"

"I would rather have more than less!" Yunzheng said sternly: "As long as we can have a good harvest of sweet potatoes this year, we can plant them on a large scale in Shuobei tomorrow. The year after next, we can harvest a lot of sweet potatoes..."

Yunzheng had already started to think about it.

Sweet potato roast, sweet potato vermicelli, roasted sweet potato, steamed sweet potato...

A small sweet potato has the power to change the world.

He had no intention of caring about whether it was nutritious or not.

As long as you are not hungry, this is a huge treasure!

"All right!"

Ye Zi pursed her lips and smiled, "I really want to taste what this potato tastes like!"

Yunzheng squeezed Ye Zi's hand and said solemnly: "When this year's sweet potatoes are harvested, you will be the first to try it!"

"You should be the first to taste it!"

Ye Zi pursed her lips and smiled, "You and your people fought hard to get these sweet potatoes back."

"fine."

The corners of Yun Zheng's lips curled up, "I can taste you!"

Saying that, Yunzheng suddenly launched a sneak attack and pecked Ye Zi on the face.

Being suddenly attacked, Ye Zi's face turned red with embarrassment.

However, Ye Zi was also someone who had been kissed by Yun Zheng in public, so the shame in her heart soon faded away.

Yun Zheng was about to laugh, but Ye Zi took the initiative to kiss Yun Zheng's lips.

Yun Zheng was slightly surprised. Just as he was about to respond to Ye Zi's kiss, Ye Zi dodged away and said with a blushing face: "Don't make trouble, I have plenty of time at night..."

at night?

Yun Zheng chuckled.

He had already eaten Shen Luoyan.

It's her turn next!

Yunzheng resisted the impulse in his heart, took Ye Zi's hand and stood up, slowly scanning the potato field in front of him.

In this situation, he didn't know whether he should hold Ye Zi and spin around here a few times.

Then, he said to Ye Zi domineeringly: I want everyone to know that this sweet potato field is contracted by you...

Thinking about it, Yunzheng suddenly became excited.

Damn it!

What are you thinking about?

"Let's go!"

Yun Zheng took Ye Zi's hand and left the sweet potato field, and immediately called the chief stationed here: "Protect this sweet potato field, and whoever wants to cause damage will be detained directly! When these sweet potatoes grow, I will The king will mark your merits!"

"Yes!"

The commander of the village straightened his body and accepted the order.

After giving them a few simple instructions, Yun Zheng left with Ye Zi.

On the way back, Yunzheng asked Ye Zi again: "Is there any gossip in the city?"

"No."

Ye Zi shook his head and said: "You are now our great hero, who dares to gossip? Now there is a saying about you in the whole Shuobei!"

No?

Better not!

Whoever dares to talk nonsense will be rewarded with dozens of big boards first, and then thrown away to dig coal!

Yun Zheng quietly covered up the glare in his eyes, turned to smile and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ye Zi pursed her lips and smiled, looking at Yunzheng with admiration.

"A three-foot green front shocks the world, and a white horse rides across the northern border!"
