Chapter 501 Beating

The news of the bumper harvest of yams planted in the Northwest quickly spread to the capital.

Yan Wushuang frowned and said, "This potato can yield 1,700 to 800 catties per mu? Why haven't I heard of this crop before?"

Meng Nian said: "I have already asked someone. This kind of yam was introduced to Fujian by a businessman from Fanwai ten years ago."

Yan Wushuang was even more surprised, and asked: "Why is such a high yield not popularized?" Fujian is thousands of miles away from the northwest, and Han Yuxi actually knew about it. Thinking of the news he got before, Yan Wushuang's expression flickered.

Meng Nian said: "There is actually a big problem with this potato. The yield in the first season is very high. If you plant it in the second season, the harvest will be greatly reduced. If you plant it in the third season, you can't even get back the money. Because of this willingness, I decided to It hasn’t been popularized.” This is what Yuxi said before, that planting yams in two consecutive episodes will cause pests. Now that there is pest infestation, the harvest must be greatly reduced.

Yan Wushuang nodded, this is normal. If there is no future trouble, such a high-yielding crop cannot be popularized.

As soon as the conversation was over, Guo Zhong asked to see him outside. Seeing Yan Wushuang, Guo Zhong said anxiously: "My lord, the emperor has passed out."

Yan Wushuang asked with a cold face: "What's the matter? How could the emperor be in a coma when he is so good?" People who practice martial arts are not in poor health. Zhou Jing has always been in good health and rarely suffers from illness.

Guo Zhong shook his head and said: "The emperor left His Highness in the bedroom, and he fell into a coma for some reason. The imperial doctor didn't say why. My lord, go and have a look!" trouble.

Yan Wushuang thought for a moment and said, "Go and call Concubine Han and let her go to the palace with me." As for why Yuchen was called, only Yan Wushuang knew.

When Yuchen heard the news, he immediately took the things she had prepared for Zhou Yan. Nanny Gui was a little worried, and asked: "The well-behaved prince wants to take his wife to the palace, is there something wrong with His Highness?" But it must not be something wrong with His Highness, otherwise, my wife will not be able to bear it.

Yuchen was also a little apprehensive in his heart.

When they arrived at the palace, Yan Wushuang went to the front court, while Yuchen took Nanny Gui to the harem. When they arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Yan Wushuang asked Doctor Zhang: "What's the matter with the Emperor?"

Doctor Zhang's forehead was sweating: "My lord, forgive me, I can't find out why the emperor is in a coma." Thinking of him as the envoy of the imperial hospital, it is really ashamed that he can't even find out the cause of the emperor's coma. !

Yan Wushuang asked: "Could it be poisoned?" Seeing Doctor Zhang shaking his head, Yan Wushuang said: "Maybe this kind of poison is colorless and tasteless, so people can't find it!" It's rare.

Doctor Zhang was ashamed, shook his head and said: "I read it in medical books, but I haven't really seen it." In fact, Doctor Zhang felt that Yan Wushuang was thinking too much, Zhou Jing was just a puppet emperor, who would do that So much effort to poison him! With this poison, he might as well give it to Yan Wushuang.

Yan Wushuang ordered: "Call all the imperial doctors and let them diagnose the emperor. Whoever diagnoses the disease will be promoted two ranks and rewarded with a hundred taels of gold."

Several imperial physicians diagnosed the emperor, but they all shook their heads and said that they could not diagnose the cause. The last one is the slovenly doctor Hong. He cut the emperor's pulse twice and frowned.

Seeing this, Yan Wushuang asked, "What can you see?"

Physician Hong shook his head and said, "The emperor's pulse is steady and strong, his breathing is even, and his face seems to be asleep. This kind of symptom, I have never seen in my life." Sleeping people can wake up when they are called, but Zhou Jing can't. Awake.

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, the other imperial physicians would probably roll their eyes, saying this is tantamount to not saying it.

Yuchen saw the two eunuchs guarding the gate panicked when they saw her expression,

Knowing that something might have happened to his son, he immediately stopped him and asked, "Where is Your Highness?"

The little eunuch knelt on the ground and said, "Your Highness is in the bedroom."

Yuchen strode in, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Zhou Yan lying on the bed with a pale face. Yuchen rushed forward, grabbed Zhou Yan's hand and asked, "Yan'er, what's wrong with you, Yan'er?"

Zhou Yan said in a weak voice, "Mother, I'm fine."

How could it be okay like this. Yuxi immediately called the girl, and asked sharply: "Say, what's going on, Your Highness?"

Ruiniang knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Majesty, Your Highness is injured. Your Highness is full of wounds, Your Majesty, please save Your Highness!"

Hearing this, Yuchen immediately lifted the quilt and took off Zhou Yan's jacket, and saw hideous and terrifying scars on Zhou Yan's body. Yuchen grinned, "Who, who did it?"

The mother burst into tears: "It was the emperor, the emperor beat her. His Highness was afraid that the empress would be worried, so he dared not tell the empress. Empress, this is not the first time. Since the beginning of the year, the emperor seems to have gone crazy. day will beat His Highness severely."

Yuchen has never hated it like this before, his son is only six years old, and he has done such a vicious trick. This Zhou Jing, damn it.

Zhou Yan wiped Yuchen's tears and said, "Mother, don't cry, I'm fine."

Yuchen hugged Zhou Yan tightly, and burst into tears: "Yan'er, it's mother who is useless, mother who didn't protect you well." If I had known that their mother and child would be tortured like this, they might as well go with the emperor that day.

Zhou Yan resisted the pain on his body and said, "Mother, don't be sad, I don't hurt. Really, I don't hurt at all." The first time the whip was whipped on his body, Zhou Yan fainted.

The more sensible the son was, the more grief Yuchen felt. But crying won't solve the problem, so Yuchen asked the maid to bring the medicine, and she gave Zhou Yan the medicine again. After taking the medicine, Zhou Yan fell into a deep sleep. Yuchen touched Zhou Yan's head, and said to himself: "Yan'er, don't worry, mother will keep you safe even if she risks her life." I will also drag that animal to die together.

Yuchen stayed in the palace to take care of Zhou Yan that day, and did not return to the palace until the next day. In the evening, Yuchen went to look for Yan Wushuang and asked, "Did you know about this?" Otherwise, she wouldn't be taking her to the palace today. From the new year to now, she has only entered the palace twice. Because Zhou Yan behaved normally, she didn't see any abnormalities. It was also her incompetence as a mother who didn't know that her son had been abused.

Yan Wushuang did not deny it: "So what if you know?"

Yuchen gritted her teeth, and she knew that this man deliberately didn't tell him: "My lord, Yan'er is the emperor's younger brother. I want him to move to the East Palace." The East Palace is some distance away from the Imperial Palace. Living in the East Palace, you can avoid Zhou Jing for the time being. As for the future, you have to plan well.

Yan Wushuang glanced at Yuchen expressionlessly, and said with a smile, "Remember your identity." A little side concubine dared to ask him for conditions. Of course, if Han Yuchen could provide something useful, he would still consider it.

After Yuchen came back, he thought about how to persuade Yan Wushuang, and thought of a non-solution method: "My lord, Zhou Jing is already sixteen this year, and he will be able to take charge when he gets married. And Yan'er is only six years old now. .” This means that Zhou Yan is easy to control, but Zhou Jing may not.

When Yan Wushuang heard this, he became interested. This woman looked like she was going to die since she arrived at the palace. Later, when Zhou Yan returned to the capital, in order to see her son, she played tricks to curry favor with him. In comparison, he prefers to see Yuchen's current appearance: "Don't talk nonsense to me."

Yuchen said: "After a year or two, I will let Yan'er take the initiative to sit in your place. In this way, you will not have to bear the eternal infamy of stealing the country." The throne is not important, the important thing is to save the son's life first. As for the future, we will talk about it later.

Yan Wushuang felt a little regretful, and said: "You are very smart, what a pity." It's a pity that such a smart person was destroyed by the woman in the inner house.

Yuchen didn't know what Yan Wushuang was thinking, so he said bravely, "My lord, the advice of my concubine is the most beneficial to my lord."

Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "You have to come up with the bargaining chip that makes my heart beat." Just relying on these two words, I want to get my wish, which is very beautiful.

Yuchen straightened his spine and said, "I know you want to deal with Yuxi, I can help you. I grew up with Yuxi since I was a child, and I know her very well."

Hearing this, Yan Wushuang asked, "Tell me?" He didn't intend to confront Han Yuxi directly for the time being, but Yan Wushuang knew very well that one day he would confront Yunqing and Han Yuchen.

Yuchen said: "Other than her two children, Yuxi's biggest weakness is my aunt. And my aunt often went to temples to worship Buddha when she was in the capital. I think she will definitely not change this habit when she goes to the northwest .”

Yan Wushuang said: "You mean to arrest Mrs. Han and threaten Han Yuxi? This method is not very clever." This method is somewhat useful, but it will not be very useful.

Yuchen shook his head and said: "No. No matter how filial Yuxi is, she will not lose her life for her aunt. What I want to say is that we can first influence my aunt through the eminent monks in the temple, so that she can favor us." Qiu Shi They are the closest people to Yu Xi, if Qiu Shi prefers them and is willing to do things for them, then they will have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Yan Wushuang smiled, and said: "The idea is good, but it's not easy to operate. Anyway, the Qiu family is also Han Yuxi's adoptive mother, how could she be partial to us?"

Yuchen said: "My eldest aunt is the most compassionate." To put it simply, it is to use Qiu's kindness to achieve their goals.

Yan Wushuang was very satisfied with this, not because he was satisfied with the method proposed by Yuchen, which actually had many loopholes, but because he was satisfied with Yuchen's attitude: "Qiu's compassion is good, but it is very difficult for us to put someone beside her." Difficult." Since Qiu is compassionate, even if he uses monks to influence Qiu, he cannot let Qiu harm Han Yuxi.

Yuchen said: "It's all about human effort, as long as you have the heart, you can always find someone who makes my aunt willing to stay."

Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "I'll let Zhou Yan move into the East Palace tomorrow." Yan Wushuang knew that Han Yuchen couldn't deal with Han Yuxi. However, there is still him behind.
