Acai's Sky

Chapter 274 Try Them All

Imperial Palace Imperial Study

Qi Yun began to sit on the dragon throne, his eyes fixed on the mountain of memorials in front of him, his brows slightly furrowed.

Suddenly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He clapped his hands and shouted excitedly: "Whatever I thought of it came true. This is wonderful!" The voice echoed in the hall.

Wang Daban, who was standing by, saw this and hurried forward, carefully handing the freshly brewed, still steaming, fragrant tea to the emperor. He then sorted through the memorials that had already been reviewed. His movements were gentle and practiced, as if he had done this countless times.

Qi Yunkai took the teacup, took a sip, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he looked up at Wang Daban, his lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile as he said, "Go to the side hall and set up the hot pot for me. I heard that it's a delicious dish that even Lord Lin praised highly. Today I want to taste it..."

Hearing this, Wang Daban couldn't help feeling helpless.

He muttered to himself, "Your Majesty, you've been the emperor for so many years, why are you still so competitive with Lord Lin? Without your secret support and connivance, how could Lord Lin's mansion be in such chaos?"

However, he naturally did not dare to say these words to his face, so he could only agree silently and turned around to let the eunuch do it quickly.

Emperor Ning Qi Yunkai looked at Wang Daban's round and chubby body and couldn't help frowning.

He thought to himself: "I have worked so hard to lose three kilograms of weight during this period, but this Fatty Wang is still so fat and strong. The more I look at him, the more annoying it becomes!" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head slightly.

Then, Qi Yunkai continued to read the remaining memorials. Suddenly, as if remembering something important, he ordered:

"Remember to send someone to Marquis Lin's mansion to ask for some potato seeds. Let the Minister of Agriculture be in charge of this matter and make sure they can be planted next year. And as for the sweet potatoes, you have to plant more of them. Such good things are a blessing for the people of Ningguo!" After saying this, his face was filled with an indescribable joy.

...

侧殿

There is a spicy smell in the air,

Qi Yunkai started sneezing as soon as he walked in

"Huff...Huff...Huff..."

"Hey, what's that smell? Why is it so strong?"

Qi Yunkai frowned and sat in his seat with a look of disgust, his eyes scanning the food on the table that looked half-cooked.

He wondered to himself: Can these things be eaten? Are they poisonous?

At that moment, Fatty Wang rushed over, hurriedly lifted the lid of the bubbling hot pot, and quickly added juicy lamb slices, plump beef rolls, and various juicy vegetables...

"Huh? Where did these green leafy vegetables come from?" Qi Yunkai asked curiously.

Fatty Wang was busy preparing the dipping sauce for Qi Yunkai as he replied without even looking up, "Hey, you didn't know this, did you? This was picked from the greenhouse of the daughter of Lord Lin! The Lin family had a great harvest this time, so naturally we got in on the fun too. We practically emptied out their entire greenhouse!"

Qi Yunkai didn't care whether he emptied other people's greenhouses. For him, the most important thing at the moment was to try these new things to see if they tasted good.

So he couldn't wait to pick up a piece of perfectly cooked meat, put it into his mouth, and chew it carefully.

"Mmm! It's absolutely delicious!"

Qi Yunkai couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, while his eyes were fixed on the delicious food boiling in the pot, afraid of missing any bite.

"Your Majesty, there is still a lot of hot pot meat!"

Wang Dapang said with a smile, and picked up a few pieces of meat and vegetables that had just been cooked and handed them to the bowl of banana sauce in front of Qi Yunkai.

Qi Yun happily and contentedly enjoyed this sumptuous meal, mumbling incoherently while eating: "Hmm, delicious, stimulating taste buds, s ...

A strong spicy taste stimulated his taste buds, making him shiver involuntarily, but then a feeling of comfort spread throughout his body, as if all the coldness had been dispelled.

"That's right! This feeling is indescribable!" Qi Yunkai shouted excitedly, with a satisfied smile on his face.

"These things in Xiaowa's house were all obtained by those rangers, right?"

"Haha, this is really exciting! I'm sure this well-traveled knight must have accumulated quite a bit. After all, he's traveled to the ends of the earth and has a wide range of knowledge. The good things he's collected must be countless.

Especially items like this that are related to people's well-being are extremely valuable."

Qi Yun chewed his food while talking enthusiastically with the person next to him.

"We should give generous rewards and noble titles to such meritorious officials."

“Not only should we double the gifts, but we should also grant them more manors and fields, so that they can feel the court’s recognition and attention to their achievements.

Perhaps in the future, there will be even more novel products that will amaze the world!"

Fatty Wang nodded in agreement, "Then, regarding Marquis Lin's legitimate daughter, should she also be rewarded?"

Qi Yunkai tasted the delicious potatoes while thinking about something.

After a brief pause, he continued, "Let's put this aside for now. Lord Lin hasn't officially acknowledged this woman yet, and the reason is unclear. We need further observation and consideration. We'll make a decision when the time is right!"

Fatty Wang muttered softly, "If it weren't for that legitimate daughter's help, we wouldn't have been able to obtain such a large number of high-yielding seeds..."

Hearing this, Qi Yunkai tilted his head slightly, glared at him fiercely, and said firmly, "When the treasure is found in the Lin Marquis Mansion, it will be the day to compensate them. I really want to see how many people will be dragged into this turmoil! And how many people will jump into the pit!"

Then, he changed the subject and asked, "Has the Zhai family's mechanical master been invited?"

"Your Majesty, the mechanical masters of the Zhai family are on their way back. This time, they are personally coming here led by the chief elder of their family and a group of clansmen." A servant replied respectfully.

Hearing this, Qi Yunkai showed a satisfied smile on his face and nodded slightly to show his approval.

"It is said that a hundred years ago, the Zhai family built a treasure house for the previous dynasty. I don't know why it was built outside. Shouldn't it be built inside the palace?"

Wang Dapang, "The Marquis' Mansion has natural advantages. It seems to be more secretive if it is built there."

Qi Yunkai nodded, "It's a secret! Haven't you heard what the storyteller said? Play hide-and-seek every night!"

Fatty Wang smiled amusedly, "But when our people arrived, the guards at Marquis Lin's Mansion cleared the area in advance, providing us with convenience..."

Qi Yunkai, "..."

Did I use you to clear the way? Why are you so unhappy...
