I am Busy Farming In the Cold Palace Chapter 71

Chapter 71:  震惊朝野

Shocked the nation

This woman; not only does she know the art of stargazing and can accurately predict the weather two days from now, but she also knows how to manage the matter of preventing droughts. Even now, she has brought him new varieties of grains with high yields such as wheat.

Such a woman is definitely someone that could not be raised in more than ten years from a distinguished family. 

But according to Bei Ming’s investigation, beside that little love affair with his third imperial imperial uncle, there is no one else. 

People in the capital know that the prime minister’s first daughter is a girl who won’t go out of her residence and binded by love, a gentle daughter of rich and well-known family

But Lu Yunluo who he came into contact with, in addition to that affection of her for the third imperial uncle, there is no one who can match it.

The mysteries on her seemed to be growing.

After confirming that the wheat had indeed matured, under the command of the agricultural official, the dozens of palace maids and eunuchs who had come with farming tools harvested all of the wheat from that two acres of land in one morning’s work.

Initially weighed and estimated, the acre yield did reach ten dan.

This news is making people feel even more excited.

Knowing that the Dong Lan country’s current staple foods are mainly rice, corn and beans. Corn per mu yields only about three dan; although the yield of rice is higher than corn, up to five dan or so, can be planted under restricted conditions, however, the Dong Lan kingdom’s food for a long time are only barely able to make ends meet, there are still many people are eating peas and beans paste, slightly encountered some natural and manmade disasters, so this kind of food can not be eaten anymore. 

Therefore, the impact of this three-month drought on the common people is very great.

On that very night, the emperor even called the Secretary of Si Nong temple and all agricultural officials into the palace to discuss it the whole night, after they tasted this grain that was made into steamed breads or buns. He finally agreed that this grain will replace the corn even more advantageous than the rice. 

The Cold Palace found a thousand kilograms per acre of grain’s news spread throughout the palace overnight.

Even in the emperor’s acquiescence, this news was just like the wind blowing outside the palace.

This news shocked the dynasty and the countryside inside and outside.

If there really was such grain, it would be a heavenly gift to the people of Dong Lan Kingdom.

For a moment, the rising grain prices suddenly had a tendency to go down.

People were talking and discussing spiritedly. 

They were all looking forward to the seeds of this grain being brought to the common people sooner. 

Above the courtroom, the matter regarding this wheat was hotly discussed.

First of all, about this wheat, who will be responsible for planting it eventually, including how to plant, where to plant are big problems.

You know, this kind of seed, in the whole world, is only this much, so if it is planted badly; who is going to bear the responsibility? Who can afford to bear it?

Moreover, in the face of this new variety,no one knows what environmental conditions and climate soil requirements are. All of these needed Si Nong Temple’s officials, for them to study or research it slowly.

In the end, there is an agricultural official who suggested that since this wheat was found in the Cold Palace, it means that this wheat must be suitable for the soil conditions of the Cold Palace, and in order to be on the safe side, it would be best if the next batch of wheat was planted on a trial basis in the land of the Cold Palace.

This proposal is something that a lot of ministers have agreed on, but this kind of agricultural land is solved, therefore who should he send to take care of this kind of land? 

For you to know, if you want to go to the cold palace, you have to pass through the harem. In general, the harem in addition to the emperor, eunuchs and court ladies, no one is not allowed to enter and exit willfully.

The person in charge of going to the Cold Palace can only be a woman.

But not to mention the entire Si Nong temple’s officials, there isn’t any woman in the entire court officials.

For a moment, everyone felt awkward again.
