Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng

Chapter 356: Peach Blossoms in Four Seasons of One Year

"Before spring comes, the peach blossoms bloom, and the literati and poets come here in disguise. The strong wind blows them to the ground, and the peach blossoms in the garden make people sad!"

Gao Zhijun looked at the peach trees on the hill and the peach blossoms falling to the ground, and was inspired.

Everyone likes peach blossoms, but few people know that peach blossoms have a short lifespan, from blooming to withering, which is about the same as the lifespan of Epiphyllum.

"Great poem! Zhijun is so smart!"

Huo Jinqian's face was filled with shock and joy.

The girl he liked was very smart and her literary talent was no worse than his.

"Sister, you are amazing. Your poem is really good, but it's a little sad."

Murong Shuo said proudly.

His sister is very smart. She knows poetry, business, and a little martial arts. She is worthy of being a member of the Murong family.

"It's a bit sad. Peach blossoms are indeed very beautiful when they are in full bloom, but their life span is very short, only a few days. They dedicate their lifelong beauty to us."

Looking at the peach blossoms all over the ground, Gao Zhijun said sadly.

"Sixth sister-in-law, let's go over there and take a look. They seem to be competing in poetry."

Huo Jinxiu pointed to a pavilion not far away, where several scholars were writing poems.

"You guys go ahead, I have something to do."

Gao Zhijun did not forget the purpose of coming here.

She had just seen that there were many peach blossoms falling from the branches of the peach tree, but the traces were old, some of which were about half a month old. In other words, the peach blossoms had fallen for half a month, but no peaches had grown.

Maybe the legend is true, the peach blossoms here bloom all year round.

The climate is no different, it's just as cold as outside, could it be a problem with the soil?

The ground was covered with layers of peach blossoms, and no soil could be found. Moreover, she felt that the soil deep in Peach Blossom Ridge was the most problematic.

"what's up?"

Huo Jinqian asked Gao Zhijun. She came here on a whim, what could she possibly do?

"I want to confirm something, very quickly. You go ahead, I'll come find you in a bit."

Gao Zhijun did not tell them what she wanted to prove. She herself was not sure, and they would not believe it even if she told them. After all, this legend was fifty years old.

"How about this, second brother takes Jinxiu and Yuxuan over, Qinglong and Hongyue Moxue protect them. Canglang follows me and Zhijun."

Huo Jinqian made a prompt decision. He couldn't let go of his worries and couldn't do it if he didn't follow Zhijun.

Gao Zhijun had no objection to this arrangement. It didn't matter if there were another Huo Jinqian and Canglang.

As long as Qinglong and Moxue protect the safety of Yuxuan, Big Brother and Jinxiu, that will be enough.

Huo Jinxiu and Murong Shuo had no objection and took Yuxuan and Hongyue Moxue to watch the scholars compete in poetry.

Gao Zhijun, Huo Jinqian and Canglang walked towards the depths of Taohualing.

"Zhijun, what do you want to prove?"

Huo Jinqian asked again.

He felt that Zhijun was a little strange and was hiding something from him.

"Nothing much, I just want to find out why the peach trees here bloom all year round but don't produce peaches?"

Gao Zhijun did not hide anything this time.

"Princess, this is not where the gods live. It is contaminated by spiritual energy, so if you plant peach trees here, they will only bloom but not produce peaches."

Gray Wolf tells folk tales.

This legend has been passed down for fifty years. It was passed down by our ancestors and it cannot be wrong.

"If this is a fairyland, then will everything we plant here only bloom but not bear fruit? If we plant cherry, star fruit, loquat, plum and other fruit trees, will they also only bloom but not bear fruit? Has anyone tried this?"

Gao Zhijun gave an example and asked Canglang. Her words shocked Canglang and Huo Jinqian, and also left Canglang speechless.

He couldn't really prove it because no one had tried: "This? No one has tried it."

"Zhijun, this legend has been circulating for fifty years. Do you have a way to prove why it only blooms but does not bear fruit?"

Huo Jinqian finally understood what Gao Zhijun was going to do.

"Yes! Princess, do you have a way to prove that the reason why the peach tree only blooms but does not bear fruit is not because this is where the gods live?"

Canglang also asked Gao Zhijun.

If the princess can prove all this, she will be the smartest person in Daliang.

"No, I can't prove it. I just have some suspicions that need to be confirmed."

Gao Zhijun did not give them hope, but just said that she had some doubts and needed to find answers.

If found, it means the legend is not true.

"Zhijun, what do you doubt?"

Huo Jinqian asked.

Where there is doubt there must be an answer, so will her answer come true?

"You see, the growth of all things depends on climate, soil and water. As for climate, I have experienced it, and the climate here is the same as outside, and it is equally cold. This shows that it has nothing to do with climate. As for water, there is no stream here, and the water needed by peach trees depends on water from the sky. The water from the sky is the rainwater when it rains. When it rains, the rainwater is the same, which also excludes the possibility of water. Because, you can't think that when it rains, the water that falls to other places is different from the water here, right? This is too far-fetched. Then, the only thing left is soil. I know that there are three kinds of soil: acidic, neutral and alkaline. Peach trees like acidic soil and are not suitable for alkaline soil. So, I want to see the soil of peach trees."

Gao Zhijun explained in detail to Huo Jinqian and Canglang why she suspected that the peach tree only bloomed but did not bear fruit.

"I didn't know there was so much to learn! I'm so grateful!"

"The princess is so smart. She knows everything."

Huo Jinqian and Canglang said at the same time.

I didn’t expect that the growing environment of a small peach tree has so many requirements.
