After returning to the Beast Garden, someone came the next morning, and His Majesty invited him to the palace.

This time, it was not the last time the guard Shi Hu, he didn't know him. When he came, he asked Ren Baqian where he was and His Majesty asked him.

Ren Baqian was originally holding Gunguang and playing, but Gunguang always wanted to break free from him.

After seeing the person coming, Ren Baqian immediately met and said, "I am Ren Baqian. I don't know what Your Majesty is asking me?"

"If you want to go, go, there is not that much nonsense." The guard said in a muffled voice.

After entering the palace, it was the last time. Ren Baqian didn't know what the palaces in the entire palace were, but the empress now seems to like it very much.

"I've seen Your Majesty." When Ren Baqian was taken in, he saw the empress wearing red clothes and hair scattered behind him leaning on the couch.

The palace is very cool, after all, there are two pots of ice there.

"Go up and talk. As for you, go back." The empress came with a slightly lazy voice.

Ren Baqian took a few steps forward, lowered his head slightly, and waited for the other party to speak.

"Last time you said, there is a grain yield of 10,000 kilograms per mu? Is this true or false?" the empress asked.

Ren Baqian's heart beat. The last time he said this, the person above did not react at all. Later, he asked Manager Shi, and Da Yao was actually short of food. He was always guessing what was going on.

Now the empress finally asked, and immediately said, "This thing is called sweet potato, also called sweet potato. The yield per mu is about 10,000 kilograms, which will fluctuate according to the conditions of the field. But the worst is 5,000 kilograms.

Moreover, this object has an advantage, that is, it has very low requirements for fields, and can be planted on plains and mountains, and there are few Dayao plains. Planting this object should solve the gap in most of the food."

The empress sat up straight when she heard this.

"What you said is true?" the empress asked in a deep voice.

"It's true and there's no falsehood." Ren Baqian replied with his head down.

“Where is this sweet potato?”

"Your Majesty, I will give me one acre of land near the Beast Garden. I can cultivate seedlings and see the results in four months." Ren Baqian dared not say that he has no sweet potatoes on hand now, and it will take two days to get them. It is too easy to leak seeds, so I can just use ambiguous words.

"I have agreed to this matter. I will wait a few months to see if it can really produce 50,000 to 10,000 kilograms per mu. If it is done, I will give you a great achievement and I can ask you what you want. If it fails, you should know the consequences of deceiving me." The empress said slowly.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely not dare to take risks with my head." Ren Baqian said.

The empress nodded: "This is the best."

After saying that, he lay down on the couch again and said, "You said you can tell stories? Go ahead and tell me something."

"Yes!" Ren Baqian took a few steps forward and saw the empress more clearly. Her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, her expression on her face was very smooth, and her originally heroic face looked a little softer at this time.

The red clothes are outlined on the body, showing the curve perfectly.

Ren Baqian glanced at the sight and lowered his head and began to think hard about what story to tell.

Journey to the West? This is his favorite, but it seems that he can't talk about it. This empress won't like a monkey who makes a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, right?

Water Margin? A bunch of rebel bandits cannot be said.

I haven't seen Dream of the Red Chamber.

It seems that only the Three Kingdoms can talk about it? Only this one has the deepest impression on me. I have watched the TV series several times. Although I don’t remember the original text, it is still OK to talk it in vernacular.

Apart from the four great classics, they are "The Legend of the White Snake" and "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", and they can't remember anything else.

After confirming his talk about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Ren Baqian cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, then I will tell a story that happened in the ancient Han Dynasty in China."

"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away all the heroes. Right and wrong, success and failure turn into nothing.

The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red for several times.

The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter are on the river bank, and are used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine meets each other happily.

How many things happen in ancient and modern times are all laughing at.”

As soon as he read a song "Linjiangxian", the empress said, "Although it sounds good, it's a dusk atmosphere."

Ren Baqian laughed dryly, and then continued to talk about the first chapter: the heroes of Taoyuan have made a feast for three times and the heroes of the Yellow Turban have made meritorious contributions.

The empress occasionally asked about some of the names of people Ren Baqian mentioned, such as the Ten Constant Assistant, Zheng Xuan, Lu Zhi, Gongsun Zan and others.

When Ren Baqian explained, the empress heard the "eunuch" and first commented: "I heard that there was a Daxia Palace. However, the people of our country were ruined so much that they were the king of a country."

When talking about the two empress dowagers, Dong Dong, the empress asked in confusion: "Why can't women participate in politics?"

"Well, in ancient China, women were not allowed to participate in politics."

"If anyone has any objection, cut it down, and it will be fine until no one speaks." The empress said disdainfully.

Ren Baqian thought about it and said that this statement was reasonable. And there was a person who did this later and did it. It seemed that this person and Wu Zetian must have a very common language.

After the Empress finished her meal at noon, Ren Baqian drank a sip of water and continued talking next to her.

At first, the empress kept saying a few words from time to time, but later she gradually stopped talking and kept listening to Baqian's story.

After one day, Ren Baqian talked eleven times, until Liu Bei saved Kong Rong and Lu Bu defeated Cao Cao.

On this day, he talked about the words "dry tongue", but he was very energetic. He had always liked the Three Kingdoms before, but he rarely discussed it with people. Now he met someone who had never heard of this story, and he finally had room to play. When he talked, he became more and more excited, his spirit became higher and higher, and he became more and more devoted.

When I got to the back, I even started to pace back and forth, and gestured from time to time.

The empress didn't mind. It was quite interesting to see his dancing performance, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly. Unfortunately, Ren Baqian was immersed in the world of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and did not notice it.

The two palace maids next to them did not have the various comments and thoughts of the empress. They were fascinated by the story. As the story progressed, they gritted their teeth and smiled happily.

When it got dark, Ren Baqian noticed the sky outside before stopping to speak.

The empress left behind the words "quite interesting" and asked Ren Baqian to go back and continue talking about the rest tomorrow.

Ren Baqian heard this and went back to reality tonight. Where did he explain it to the empress? He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my subordinates will prepare for cultivation tomorrow and clean up a piece of land. After all, food is the foundation of the country. It is sufficient food and no longer dependent on those merchants. This is the most urgent matter."

The empress looked at him with great interest and said, "This makes sense, and people's livelihood is a big deal. Let's do it. Go back and prepare the 'sweet potato' first, and then tell me the rest of the story. Don't forget that you have an appointment with my Royal Chef."

The two palace maids looked at Ren Baqian with some regrets, and were talking about something that made people feel anxious.
