Chapter 487: Zhu Yuanzhang: What Sweet Potato, That Is Zhu Yuanzhu, Zhu Yuanzhang’S Zhu! [Please Sub
Below, among the generals and nobles, Xin Guogong Tanghe looked at the sweet potatoes and corns placed on the disk in front of him, then picked up the sweet potatoes, and then began to slowly peel off the outer layer of the sweet potatoes. Peel.
Tang and the Duke of Wei, Xu Da, Duke of Cao, Li Wenzhong, Duke of Song, Feng Sheng, Duke of Ying, Fu Youde, Duke of Ping, Mu Ying and other princes were slightly startled when they saw this scene.
Obviously, compared to himself who didn't know what kind of food was in front of him, Xin Guogong Tanghe knew what kind of food was in front of them at this moment, and also knew how to eat it.
Even looking at Xin Guogong's soup and his skillful movements, he might have eaten it eight times instead of ten times!!!
Immediately, the Duke of Wei, Xu Da, Duke of Cao, Li Wenzhong, Duke of Song, Feng Sheng, Duke of Ying, Fu Youde, and Duke of Ping, Mu Ying, all remembered Duke Xin Tang and his main responsibilities in recent years - garrisoning [Wanmin Agricultural College] 】!!!
[The food in front of me was made by Saint Shennong, in other words, it was grown in Wanmin Agricultural College!!!]
[And Tang He, this bitch, has been responsible for stationing at Wanmin Agricultural College in recent years!!!]
[The case has been solved, his mother-in-law, Tang He, this bitch must have used his power for personal gain while stationed at Wanmin Agricultural College!!!]
[Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so familiar with this thing!!!]
[He has definitely eaten the food in front of him, and it must have been more than once!!!]
[If you have something good, why don’t you share it with your old brothers? Are you going to eat alone?!!]
[I will refer him to His Majesty later!!!]
The Duke of Wei, Xu Da, the Duke of Cao, Li Wenzhong, the Duke of Song, Feng Sheng, the Duke of Ying, Fu Youde, and the Duke of Ping, Mu Ying, all thought angrily in their hearts while watching the movements of Tang He, Duke of Xin, who also moved carefully and slowly. Peel the outer skin off the sweet potatoes.
On the other side, Yan Changqing, who was sitting on the wide seat, also stood up, picked up the sweet potato in his hand, and demonstrated in front of all the civil and military officials:
"17This thing can be eaten as long as the outer layer of skin is peeled off.'
"Or if it's too troublesome to peel it apart, you can just break it open and eat it directly."
“Just be careful not to eat the outermost layer of skin.”
"Of course, if you accidentally eat the outermost layer of skin, there won't be any big problem, as long as you don't eat too much."
"Because if you eat too much of the outermost layer, you may get a stomachache."
"And the outermost layer of skin is indeed not very tasty."
While Yan Changqing was explaining, Xin Guogong Tanghe, who was at the bottom, had already peeled off the sweet potato skins on his hands, and then took a big bite, showing a happy attitude while chewing.
Just as Wei Guogong Xu Da, Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Ying Guogong Fu Youde, Ping Guogong Muying and others guessed, Xin Guogong Tang He had indeed eaten sweet potatoes.
Not only sweet potatoes, he also ate corn.
And it wasn’t once or twice, but nearly a hundred times.
After all, sweet potatoes have been planted for three years, and he is the Duke in charge of garrisoning Wanmin Agricultural College.
Moreover, he also knew that Yan Changqing's other identity was Saint Shennong, so he also intended to make friends with her.
Faced with the intention of making friends with a prince who lowered his status, Yan Changqing would not say that he was so arrogant that he looked down on him.
Therefore, over the past two or three years, the relationship between Tang He and Yan Changqing has actually been pretty good.
In the first two years when the sweet potato production was not very large, Yan Changqing prohibited anyone from eating sweet potatoes, which naturally included Xin Guogong Tanghe.
But last year, when the total yield of sweet potatoes from 1,800 acres totaled more than 10 million kilograms, which could barely fit into the cellar of Wanmin Agricultural College, "Yan Changqing didn't care whether he ate it or not."
So looking at Xin Guogong's soup and soup, which he had been craving for two years, Yan Changqing waved his hand and gave him a hundred catties of sweet potatoes and a hundred catties of corn, letting him eat as he pleased.
Therefore, in the past few months, I have been cooking one or two sweet potatoes or corn for breakfast almost every other day.
On the other side, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was on the imperial steps of Dan Palace, also broke the sweet potato into two halves while Yan Changqing was speaking. He looked at the steaming sweet potato meat and took a bite.
Queen Ma on the other side was much more dignified. She slowly peeled off the skin of the sweet potato and then took a small bite.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma are no strangers to sweet potatoes.
Although there is detailed information about sweet potatoes, it was only known after Yan Changqing came to the palace to give a detailed report last night.
But when it comes to eating sweet potatoes, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma are no later than Xin Guogong Tanghe.
After all, Xin Guogong and Tang He who were stationed at Wanmin Agricultural College were able to eat sweet potatoes. It would be a joke if Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma said they couldn't.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang did not even say hello to Yan Changqing, but directly asked Jin Yiwei to transport three hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes into the palace during the sweet potato harvest.
From then until today, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma's breakfast basically consists of sweet potatoes, corn and millet porridge.
The reason why he showed that attitude just now was just to show off to all the civil and military officials.
However, in addition to Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, Yan Changqing, and Xin Guogong Tang He, there are still other princes such as Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Di, as well as a number of civil and military officials. This is really the first time for them to eat today. Serve sweet potatoes.
Although some of their important ministers and Dukes in the past also knew about the existence of sweet potatoes and corn.
But I only know about it, I have never seen it with my own eyes, let alone eaten it with my mouth.
After all, the purpose of Xin Guogong Tang and stationed at Wanmin Agricultural College is to prevent the leakage of grain crops without the consent of Yan Changqing and Zhu Yuanzhang.
And sweet potatoes are obviously one of them.
In the palace, Song Lian took a bite of the sweet potato flesh with its skin peeled off, and his eyes lit up immediately.
Originally, he thought this thing would be harder to bite, after all, he is seventy-three years old this year.
Even according to the original history, he should have died last year.
But now Zhu Yuanzhang has not included him in Hu Weiyong's rebellion case, so he has not been demoted.
Naturally, it is not like the original history where he suffered from fatigue due to being demoted, and finally died on the way to being demoted.
So now Song Lian is still alive and well. If there are no accidents, it is estimated that it will not be a big problem to live for a few more years.
However, although it seems that he can live for a few more years, he really can't bite some more teeth-consuming things.
The cooked sweet potatoes are soft and delicious, sweet and fragrant, and melt in your mouth. It can be said that it is very suitable for elderly people like him to eat.
Therefore, Song Lian also had a look of joy in his career on his knees.
Not only him, but also the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, etc., or other civil and military officials also had similar expressions.
After all, it is hard for humans to refuse sweet potatoes, which are fragrant, sweet, soft, sticky and delicious!!!
In just a moment, a palm-sized sweet potato was quickly eaten by Song Lian.
Then Song Lian stared at Saint Shennong with his eyes and asked impatiently:
"Saint, what is the name of this thing?!!"
"What is the yield per mu?!!"
"Is it difficult to plant?!!"
"Is it difficult to cook?!!"
Although Song Lian roughly knew in his heart that the food that Saint Shennong specially put in the New Year's Grand Court Meeting for the emperor and a group of civil and military officials as breakfast must have a high yield per mu, and planting should not be too difficult. It seems that there is no troublesome cooking.
But these are just his guesses after all. If the food he just ate has a low yield per mu, is difficult to plant, and has been troublesome to cook, then it will not be of much significance to the common people.
So now Song Lian urgently hopes that Saint Shennong can give an accurate answer.
After hearing Song Lian's words, the other civil and military officials also stared at Saint Shennong closely, expecting Saint Shennong's reply.
After eating the sweet potato, Yan Changqing wiped his mouth and hands, looked at the civil and military officials in front of him, a faint smile appeared on his face, and then his eyes fell on the eunuch beside him.
Immediately, a servant brought another round plate of raw sweet potatoes to Yan Changqing, and then Yan Changqing picked up a raw sweet potato and introduced it:
"The yield per mu of this plant is roughly the same as that of potatoes. At present, under the careful cultivation of Wanmin Agricultural College, "it can basically maintain a seedling yield of more than ten!!!"
"If it is cultivated by the people, the conservative yield per mu is estimated to be more than twenty stones!!!"
"The planting method is not troublesome, and the requirements for the planting environment are not high. It can be planted in the south and the north!!!"
"As for cooking, it is also simple, convenient and diverse. For example, what we just ate was simply steamed with water."
"As for the taste and flavor, you just finished eating it, I think you should have some experience."
"In addition to steaming, there is also a way to eat it raw. Wash and peel it, and eat it directly. It tastes crisp and delicious, but not very sweet.
"Or roast it, just throw it on the firewood and roast it, then peel off the outer layer of burnt skin, and then eat it. ”
“Or you can fry it. Wash and peel it, cut it into strips, put it in a pot with some side dishes and stir-fry until cooked. Then you can eat it.”
“Or you can dry it in the sun. Wash and peel it, cut it into strips, expose it to the sun for seven days, and dry it into dried fruit. Then you can eat it. This method is also more convenient to store. ”
“There is also deep-frying. Wash and peel it, cut it into strips, evenly coat it with flour, and finally deep-fry it in a pan. Then you can eat it.”
“In short, there are many ways to eat it, depending on your preference. "
"And this thing can be used as a staple food like rice, noodles, wheat, and potatoes!"
After answering the three questions about the per-acre yield, planting, and cooking methods of sweet potatoes, Yan Changqing turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang and said with a slight bow:
"The appearance of this thing is like red, so I boldly named it after your Majesty's surname-Zhushu!!!"
"Please forgive me and allow me!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang on the throne shook his head and said:
"What crime has Shennong committed? The surname Zhu is not unique to us!! 643!"
"If Shennong thinks it is appropriate to name it Zhushu, then we have no objection!!!"
Yan Changqing below curled his lips slightly, and then replied:
"Since your Majesty allows it, then the name of this grain will be--Zhushu!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth corners were almost grinning to the back of his ears, and he nodded repeatedly:
"Good! Very good!! The name Zhushu is very good!!!"
Yan Changqing below Changqing, I can understand why Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited.
In this era, red is also called Zhuse.
So there is absolutely no problem in changing the name of sweet potato to Zhuzhu or something like that.
It is even possible that for people of this era, the first thing they think of when they see sweet potato is Zhuse, and then they may spontaneously call it Zhushu instead of sweet potato.
Of course, even if the name is changed to Zhushu, normally,
it will not be anything special.
Zhushu is just Zhushu, and there will be no special meaning in it.
However, in Yan After Changqing said, "The appearance of this thing is like red, so I boldly named it after your Majesty's surname—Zhushu", Zhuzhu has a special meaning.
The Zhu in Zhushu no longer refers to the red color Zhu, but also to Zhu Yuanzhang's Zhu!
In the future, when everyone mentions Zhushu, they will know that the origin of the name Zhuzhu comes from Zhu Yuanzhang's surname Zhu!!
In other words, as long as the Zhushu with a yield of 30 dan per mu is not exhausted in the land of Yanhuang, then Zhu Yuanzhang's name will be passed down to future generations along with the Zhushu soil!!!
For Zhu Yuanzhang, who has stood at the top of the world, Peak, if there is anything worth his struggle, effort, and pursuit, then it is only to make his name go down in history and be passed down to future generations. And just with that one sentence, Zhu Yuanzhang easily achieved what countless outstanding people and sages in the past history have longed for, to be passed down in history and be passed down to future generations!!! Although it was mainly because of the red potato yield of at least 30 shi per mu that his name was passed down in history and passed down to future generations along with the red potato. However, that is also a name passed down in history and passed down to future generations!!! So Zhu Yuanzhang's excitement now can be understood.
