Chapter 304 Discovering Potatoes

Xiao Yilin, who was far away in the capital of Jin State, sent people to secretly search for Jingyi's whereabouts and finally got some information.

Gu Yu knelt on the ground and reported: "Your Majesty, it is reported that the Queen, the old lady and Mr. Mei have left the country of Jin, but it is unknown where they went after leaving the country of Jin. After all, it does not belong to our Jin Dynasty.

Due to the country's sphere of influence, it is difficult to trace the Queen's whereabouts.

I have already ordered people to investigate the territory of Yiguo, and will report back as soon as there is any news about the Queen. In addition, the Queen sold all the fields in Yunxi Village, but the house has not been moved. Maybe there is no time to deal with it. The land deeds were processed at that time.

It was County Magistrate Lin who handled the deed in person. At that time, the Empress said she wanted to move her family to the capital, so Magistrate Lin didn't have any doubts about what happened to the land deed."

Xiao Yilin has lost a lot of weight these days because of Jing Yi's departure, and his eyes are full of gloom and seem to have no light.

He pinched his eyebrows and said, "I ordered people to continue searching and we must find traces of the Queen."

Gu Yu said: "Your Majesty, some ministers in the court are colluding secretly to force you to appoint another queen in the middle palace. Many of them support Miss Lu Zhilan from Dingguo Palace to be the queen. Dingguo Palace is also secretly using its force.

"

Hearing this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Xiao Yilin's lips, "Ms. Lu still wanted to be the queen after doing such a thing. It's really a fool's errand. Their Dingguo Palace wants to have a sweet dream, but it depends on whether I am willing or not. My daughter did that.

The Duke's office should have restrained itself when the matter was decided, but now it is jumping up and down like this. It also wants to unite with the courtiers to force me."

Xiao Yilin snorted coldly, "Gu Yu, don't they, Duke Dingguo, want their daughter to be the queen? Then let their daughter do something scandalous in public and see how shameless they can be in sending their daughter to the palace.

If you want to step on my Jingyan and get the upper hand, I will send her to hell first."

Gu Yu couldn't help but tremble when he heard His Majesty's cold voice. He felt that His Majesty had changed since the Empress left. He had become a lot colder. The warm and spring feeling he had when facing the Empress could no longer be felt.

.

He felt that the Queen had taken away all the warmth in His Majesty's heart, turning him into a gloomy and cold person.

He looked forward to finding the Queen as soon as possible, otherwise he didn't know what would happen to their Majesty.

Gu Yu is now the commander of the Royal Forest Army, and he also controls a group of secret guards responsible for secret investigation, protection and other matters.

Gu Yu knew that His Majesty had a more powerful secret guard. Whatever the ministers in the court did secretly, they could not escape His Majesty's eyes.

Gu Yu has been ordered to make arrangements, and must satisfy His Majesty.

Gu Yu knew that the Queen's departure was closely related to the Dingguo Palace. His Majesty was very resentful towards the Dingguo Palace, especially towards the Lu family's youngest daughter, Lu Zhilan.

Gu Yu felt that His Majesty must let out this bad breath, otherwise none of them would have a hard time.

Jing Yi dressed up as a man and entered the county seat of Yuanling County. She wanted to see the situation in Yuanling County first so that she could come here to purchase supplies in the future.

Jingyi had learned some information about the Liu family from her uncle before, but now Jingyi wanted to go and see for herself.

Although Yuanling County is a border town of Yi State, there are no powerful countries in the south of Yi State. Most of them are scattered tribes, which are not to be feared. Therefore, Yuanling County does not have many troops stationed. Moreover, the management here

It's not very strict, and people from surrounding tribes can also go into the city to buy things.

So Jing Yi paid the entry fee and entered the city easily.

After entering the city, Jingyi found that the county town of Yuanling County was quite lively. At least there were many shops on both sides of the street, and there were also many vendors on the street, selling a wide range of things.

After all, this place is located in the south, with plenty of rain. It has not experienced the drought in the north. Farmers' harvests are pretty good, and people's lives are pretty good. It is precisely because of this that Jingyi discovered that there are many refugees in Yuanling County, and there are also some on the streets.

Many of the beggars are probably victims of the disaster who have fled from the north.

Jingyi browsed the shops on the street. The food in the food store was quite sufficient, but the price was not low. It was probably because of the large number of people fleeing the famine that caused the price of food to rise.

Jingyi asked about the price of the cloth again. The price was not bad, so Jingyi bought dozens of cloths of various kinds and filled the carriage she drove over.

The owner of the cloth shop was very happy to meet such a big customer. Jingyi asked if there were any cloth heads in the cloth shop. The cloth shop owner directly gave all the leftover cloth heads in the shop to Jing Yi. Anyway, there were usually no cloth heads.

Instead of buying it, you might as well use it to maintain this new big customer.

After Jingyi bought the cloth, he took the opportunity to ask the owner of the cloth shop about the situation.

The carriage was full and Jingyi was not going to buy anything else. Her lucky bag was full of supplies. She drove the carriage out of the city while looking at the things sold by the vendors on both sides of the street.

Suddenly Jingyi saw a vendor's stall on the street with several things on it, including a small pile of smoky yellow-brown things that looked like lumps of earth.

Jing Yi's eyes lit up when she saw this, she immediately stopped the carriage, jumped out and walked to the vendor's stall. She squatted down and picked up something like a lump to look at. She was very excited. This was indeed what she had always wanted.

The potatoes I was looking for. I didn’t expect to find them here.

This is really a place where you can't find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it doesn't take any effort to get there.

Jing Yi took the potato and asked, "Brother, what is this? Why does it look like lumps of earth? And it's all wilted."

The hawker looked a little embarrassed and said: "Brother, I don't know what this is. I met a businessman from the north before, and he said he bought it from Hu Shang. But no one here recognizes it.

He threw this away. I picked it up and put it here to try, just in case someone knows the stuff. If you want to give me a few cents, just take it all."

Jing Yi didn't say anything after hearing this. He took out ten cents from his pocket and handed it to the vendor, "I'm curious too. I bought this pile of dirt."

When the vendor saw that the pile of dirt could be sold for ten cents, he immediately put it in a bamboo basket for Jingyi and said, "I'll give you this basket too."

Jing Yi returned to the carriage with the basket and quickly left the city.

When she discovered potatoes, Jingyi was so excited that she wanted to scream twice. She really came to Yuanling County at the right time. It would be even better if she finds sweet potatoes, corns and other species in the future.

After leaving the city, Jingyi drove the carriage to a deserted place and put all the cloth and half a basket of potatoes in the carriage into a lucky bag.

She plans to use her powers to spawn more potatoes on the way back, and then optimize the potato varieties. After settling down, she can open up wasteland for farming, and use her optimized potatoes as seeds to grow more potatoes. These potatoes are

High-yielding food crops can feed many people.
