Chapter 112 Divine Seed
"God seed! God seed!"
"The divine seed has descended from the sky, and we are saved!"
“Wow, wow, we, we can survive, Dad! Mom! Did you see it? Our village is saved!”
Men and women of all ages in Changle Village cried miserably.
They didn't cry out loudly, but rather low sobs that were suppressed in the throat and slowly poured out, which were more touching than those wailing loudly.
Everyone present was moved by their crying.
Even Zhang Ping, who was the younger of the five Wei Chu men, had tears in his eyes.
Qin Chaoyan looked at Wei Chu, pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.
"Please give these grains to Emperor Qi. I can see that he is a good monarch. With him, Great Qi will prosper."
Wei Chu looked at her deeply, holding the five grain seeds in his hands, took a step back, and knelt down on his knees towards Qin Chaoyan.
"Thank you, goddess, for bestowing the Great Qi divine seed!"
"What are you doing? Get up quickly." Qin Chaoyan whispered.
Wei Chu raised the grain seeds above his head, bowed his head and saluted Qin Chaoyan, also showing his gratitude to her to everyone for her contribution to Da Qi.
"Wei Chu, on behalf of the people of Daqi, thanks the goddess for bestowing the divine seed." Wei Chu's voice continued, "The goddess' virtue is enough to be praised for thousands of years."
After he finished speaking, everyone present knelt down and shouted, "Thank you, Goddess, for giving us the divine seed!" "The merits of the Goddess will be remembered for thousands of years!"
Looking at the crowd and the light in their eyes, Qin Chaoyan pursed her lips and said, "Please stand up."
"This kind of seeds can produce more than 1,000 kilograms per mu, but it also requires careful care. If you don't take good care of the crops, I'm afraid no matter how good the seeds are, they will be useless."
Wei Chu said: "Don't worry, Goddess, I will definitely propose to His Majesty that this batch of divine seeds be planted by the most experienced farmers."
The people below also said in unison: "Don't worry, Goddess. If we have the chance, we will definitely grow crops well and will not let you down."
"This is the blessing the goddess has given us. Even though we are not farmers, we will supervise them. If anyone dares not to plant well, we will risk our lives to write a letter to the emperor to advise him."
They were not far from Yancheng, the capital of Daqi. Jia San and his companions were concerned that many of Qin Chaoyan's group were young masters and would be travelling a long distance. Qin Chaoyan had also said that the important thing was not to rush on the journey but to enjoy the scenery along the way.
Therefore, their speed was extremely slow.
It rained heavily again yesterday afternoon, so they rested in a deserted temple for one night and set out this morning. They met Sanyaniang and Goushengniang and the others less than half an hour after they started walking.
If Wei Chu rode at full speed without stopping, he would be able to return to Kyoto within an hour and a half.
Wei Chu carefully packed the grain seeds, said goodbye to Qin Chaoyan and the others, asked Shen An and the others to take good care of them, and planned to ride back to the capital.
Qin Chaoyan sighed softly, walked to Wei Chu and held his hand.
Amid the astonishment of the crowd, Qin Chaoyan instructed: "Wait for me here, I will be back soon."
After she finished speaking, she and Wei Chu disappeared from everyone's sight.
The villagers of Changle Village, the officials of Jingzhao Prefecture, the magistrate of Pingxian County and others opened their eyes wide, unable to believe what they saw.
Shen An and the other three as well as Wei Wu and the others were actually a little surprised, but after looking at the group of people whose eyes were about to pop out of their heads in surprise, they managed to keep their composure and acted as if they were used to it.
Among those present, only Wei Zhao and the other four were the most tolerant.
The four of them had been following Qin Chaoyan for almost two months and had become accustomed to her sudden disappearance and reappearance.
It's just that there's one more Wei Chu this time. They've gotten used to it and don't care anymore.
No wonder!
Qi Cheng and Xiao Changkong were both so angry that their mouths were almost filled with anger. Ahhhh, they were very impressed that Wei Zhao could be taken away by the Master.
Who made Wei Zhao the first person to see the Master? But how did Uncle Wei manage to surpass them and get the Master's special look?
"Hmph!" Qi Cheng thought about it and felt that he was too jealous, so he snorted heavily.
Wei Wu and the other two looked at them, thinking that they were angry because Qin Chaoyan left them behind. Wei Wu frowned, after all, he didn't have such a close relationship with Qi Cheng and Xiao Changkong, as Qi Cheng was still the grandson of the emperor.
Wei Wu just said: "The teacher said she will be back soon, let's wait here..."
Before Wei Wu could finish his words, Qin Chaoyan appeared in front of them.
As soon as she appeared, she was immediately surrounded by Wei Zhao and his men. Even Chen Fengnian and Shan Ge couldn't help but step forward a few steps, and Wei Wu also moved his feet.
Back in Kyoto, when Wei Chu's hand was held by Qin Chaoyan in front of everyone, his heart was beating wildly and he felt a little shy.
Didn’t we agree last night that we would test him during this period of time and keep him unfamiliar in front of others?
Wei Chu's mind was full of thoughts. When Qin Chaoyan finished speaking, he vaguely realized that she wanted to help him and let him return to Beijing early, and the fantasy in Wei Chu's heart disappeared.
When it comes to major issues of right and wrong, and when it comes to matters that can save the people's livelihood, Wei Chu can distinguish between his personal feelings and public affairs.
It's just that they are so close. It has been such a long time since they looked at each other face to face like this, with her holding his hand.
It was as if his nose was lingering with her scent.
Before Wei Chu could react, he was brought to the gate of Xizhi Palace by Qin Chaoyan. "Let's go. When you report, just come to us directly. I know you have a way to find us."
Not to mention that Shen An and his group would pass on the message to him, the group of people guarding them in the dark would also pass the news to the palace.
In this way, Wei Chu can find them based on the information.
After saying this, Qin Chaoyan disappeared on the spot.
The soldiers guarding the gate hadn't even reacted when they saw Wei Chu and Qin Chaoyan appear. Then, Wei Chu was the only one left at the palace gate.
After seeing clearly that it was Wei Chu, they put down the spears they were pointing at him.
"Master Wei!"
"Master Wei, where did you appear from? Was it the goddess just now?"
Normally, the soldiers guarding the gate would not say much, but the way Wei Chu appeared today really made them too curious.
Wei Chu's eyes fell on the silk cloth containing the grain seeds. His expression was serious, but his cheeks were still red.
"Please inform him for me. I want to see His Majesty."
The eunuch on duty inside Xizhimen heard what Wei Chu said and saw that Wei Chu looked so serious. He hurriedly said that he would report it immediately and asked Wei Chu to wait.
In recent years, Wei Chu, the son of the Rong family, has become more and more favored, and has a tendency to become a big hit in front of the emperor. Especially in the year before last, the emperor made an exception to transfer Wei Chu and promoted him twice, making him the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
