Li Er looked at Huang Shiren who was lying on the ground trembling, and suddenly couldn't help it, and kicked him.
Huang Shiren was like a ball, rolled twice on the ground, crawled over in disgrace, hugged Li Er's thigh, and cried: "Your Majesty, I am guilty. Chen has betrayed His Majesty's trust. I am guilty. It's just... I think, This matter is not only the fault of the minister, there must be a reason for Chen Chu, there must be something wrong with his potato seeds, otherwise, otherwise, this situation will not happen, your majesty, please trust me, I am loyal and absolutely not Those who dare to neglect their duties..."
Li Er's face turned cold, and he said: "Gao Chen, go to the Nanshan mansion quickly and bring Chen Chu here. I want to see. When Chen Chu arrives, what do you have to say?"
He planned to have Chen Chulai confront Huang Shiren.
Huang Shiren wiped away his tears and said, "Your Majesty, I will definitely let Chen Chu, the son-in-law, tell the truth."
Gao Chen left in a hurry.
I will be back in a short time.
Chen Chu followed behind him.
Chen Chu came behind the crowd and asked curiously, "Hey, what kind of event is this today, so lively?"
Cheng Yaojin said: "Fifth brother, today is the day of potato harvest."
……
Chapter 253
Chen Chu said: "It seems to be a grand event. I said earlier that no matter how poor the potatoes are, they can yield [-] catties per mu, and they are suitable for planting in dry land. They can solve the food problem of the Tang Dynasty in the future. Now it seems that , we have taken a big step towards success...Congratulations to Father Huang, congratulations to Great Tang..."
Such a good thing, of course, should be complimented first.
However, before Chen Chu finished speaking, Li Er coughed violently.
"Cough cough cough..."
It's like coughing to death.
Seeing this, Chen Chu asked in surprise, "Father, you... what's wrong with you?"
Li Er's face was dark, and he pointed to the ground.
Chen Chu turned his head to look.
puff!
He almost vomited blood.
Chen Chu was furious at once.
Pointing to the potatoes on the ground, he shouted angrily: "Which bastard planted this? Is this a potato? It's obviously a bird's egg, wasteful, wasteful, those seeds that were planted back then were all in vain. Say, who did it?"
Chen Chu lost his temper on the spot.
Even with Li Er present.
Even if the eldest grandson queen is present.
Even if Chao Wenwu was there, he couldn't suppress his anger.
Chen Chu was very angry.
Because this is what he got in exchange for completing system tasks.
According to the rules of the system, once a reward has been obtained, it will not be obtained again in the future.
It also meant that the potatoes that Chen Chu got last year were the only potato seeds in Datang.
And the potatoes he planted in clay pots are the only batch of seeds.
Once this batch of seeds is scrapped, it's over.
The potatoes sent to the palace were all grown by him, and he cared for them in the wind and rain.
I thought that big and big potatoes could be planted, and a large number of potatoes would be planted in the coming year, so as to solve Datang's food problem in time.
I never thought about it, it was planted and abolished.
"who is it?"
"There is a kind of standing up..."
"See if I don't kill him!"
Chen Chu roared like a wild beast.
The ministers all bowed their heads.
Their mood was different from Chen Chu's, but felt aggrieved and helpless.
Especially Huang Shiren, who will be the chief supervisor.
He was even more ashamed.
He knew that he was completely finished this time.
potato!
It's Datang Xiangrui!
His Majesty Li Er's sweetheart.
A fetish that can solve the food crisis in the Tang Dynasty.
It turned out to be abolished by oneself.
This time, even if he doesn't die, he will lose a layer of skin.
Suddenly, Huang Shiren's eyes lit up.
Do not!
I can't just be punished like this.
He intends to fight to the death.
He stood up abruptly, looked at Chen Chu and said, "Chen Concubine, I planted these potatoes."
"you……"
Chen Chu turned her head and gave Huang Shiren a cold look, then suddenly grabbed the golden hoe on the ground and rushed towards Huang Shiren.
"Today, I'll beat you to death, you bastard!"
Chen Chu was furious and smashed down with a hoe.
Huang Shiren was so frightened that his mother screamed, and fell to the ground.
boom.
Hit his head on the back of his foot.
Huang Shiren yelled in pain: "Help, help..."
Only then did the ministers react.
Seeing that Chen Chu was about to beat someone up.
Niu Jinda and Qin Qiong looked at each other and rushed forward one after another. Some hugged Chen Chu's waist, some pressed Chen Chu's shoulder, and some grabbed Chen Chu's hand.
They all persuaded: "Fifth brother, don't be like this..."
"My son-in-law, don't be like this, don't be like this..."
Seeing that the scene was a mess.
As the emperor, Li Er didn't say a word.
When he saw Chen Chu raising his golden hoe and smashing it at him, he felt a bit of pleasure in his heart.
For a long time.
Chen Chu's mood stabilized a little.
Li Er stepped forward and said, "Okay...Chen Chu, let him finish talking."
The chief supervisor, Huang Shiren, was helped to stand up, bleeding from the back of his feet.
He gasped in pain.
I saw him aggrieved and said: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent and cannot grow these potatoes, but I think it is not my fault, but that there is something wrong with the potato seeds..."
Ok?
The people around were all taken aback.
Problems with potato seeds?
Swish swish.
All eyes looked at Chen Chu.
Huang Shiren continued: "There is nothing wrong with the minister's planting method, but the potatoes still can't grow. There is only one possibility, and that is the problem of the seeds... Chen Concubine is so angry that he wants to beat the minister to death. In my opinion, this It's a guilty conscience, he is afraid that the minister will expose him..."
Those present thought, ah, it makes sense.
Even Li Er looked at Chen Chu.
Huang Shiren, who will be the chief supervisor, if he does not understand planting, then no one in the court will understand.
But he couldn't grow potatoes. Could it really be the potato seeds?
For a moment, everyone present showed doubts.
Some people who were unhappy with Chen Chu were even secretly happy.
Seeing this, Chen Chu smiled slightly, stared at Huang Shiren, and asked, "Master Huang, according to what you said, it's not your fault, but me?"
Huang Shiren fought desperately, and was no longer afraid of anything, "There must be something wrong with your potato seeds, otherwise it won't fail to grow. My planting method has no problems."
Chen Chu said to himself: "Good boy, it seems that I can't cure you..."
Huang Shiren was even more proud when he heard this.
OK!
Chen Chu seemed unable to prove that it wasn't his own seed problem.
He bit this certainty to death, and became even more unscrupulous: "Chen Concubine, just tell the truth, what's wrong with these potato seeds?"
"That's right, Chen Chu, now is not the time to be impulsive. Your Majesty and the Queen are both present. If there is a problem with potato seeds, you'd better tell the truth."
"Master Huang, at a young age, has been loyal all his life, and it's all because of your innocence."
"Chen Chu, you should give Lord Huang an explanation."
For a while, ministers spoke out to help Huang Shiren.
The spearhead was pointed at Chen Chu.
Chen Chu sneered suddenly, glanced around, and said: "It seems that you all think that there is something wrong with the potato seeds... Mr. Huang, if the potatoes I planted grow out, and they are no worse than last year's harvest, what should I do?" how?"
"impossible……"
Huang Shiren exclaimed.
All of Chen Chu's potato seeds were dedicated to the imperial court.
All are planted here.
In other words, it was impossible for Chen Chu to grow potatoes again.
Huang Shiren's eyes lit up: "Chen Consort, if you can grow big potatoes, then it's my problem. If you can't, it's the potato seeds that are problematic."
He firmly believed that it was impossible for Chen Chu to grow potatoes.
Seeing the argument between Chen Chu and Huang Shiren, Li Er was also a little confused.
Is there a problem with the planting method, or is there a problem with the seeds?
Because there is no evidence, everyone is confused.
Chen Chu laughed: "Hahaha, Mr. Huang, you have a good plan. Since that's the case...Father, my lords, please follow me to Duke Lu's mansion."
What are you going to do in Duke Lu's mansion?
Everyone is a little curious.
