The Empress Dowager put down her chopsticks.

Whispering his mouth, he began to miss that spicy feeling.

Especially the feeling that the pepper stimulates the taste buds, I can't stop.

It's rare to eat a dish without chili today, but I feel that the taste is too bland, as if something is missing.

Unexpectedly, Queen Zhang didn't have much appetite after tasting a little food.

Queen Zhang also eats chili these days.

She had an impression that Xishan's medicine must be good. You see, this medicine is really good. As soon as I took it, I felt that my internal organs were churning, and tears were about to come out. This is unprecedented. Experience, the more difficult it is to enter, the more it proves that it is a good medicine?

Eating and eating, it is inseparable.

Obviously when I first tasted it, I couldn't take a single bite of it being so spicy, but now...

"Grandma's illness, is it okay?"

The Empress Dowager thought for a while: "It's mostly done, but it's not done yet."

"This medicine is indeed very effective. Although most of it is cured, the concubine thinks that to get rid of the root cause of the disease, one must persist in taking the medicine." Queen Zhang said.

The Empress Dowager looked at Empress Zhang: "I'm afraid you are not used to it."

Empress Zhang said with a smile: "The concubine is used to eating."

The Empress Dowager understood, and said to the eunuch, "Bring me a few dishes, and they must be prepared with medicine."

The eunuchs understood, and after a short while, new dishes were served again. The dishes were bright red, and Zhu Xiurong could feel the pungentness under the tip of her nose when she heard it from a distance.

The Empress Dowager and Queen Zhang raised their chopsticks tacitly.

The chili stimulates the taste buds, making it painful and happy.

A large number of peppers were made into powder and then put into storage in large quantities. At the same time, Fang Jifan sat in the room and began to write a book. This is a letter from his family. His father guarded Guizhou and practiced soldiers and horses. Guizhou was full of miasma and humidity. At this time, Yunnan, Guizhou and other southwestern provinces were all lands seized by the Ming Dynasty from the Yuan Dynasty. In order to ensure the development here, the Ming Dynasty had relocated the population, and at the same time set up military guards in various strategic locations to consolidate the southwest.

However, even so, after many Han people arrived here, because the climate here is different from other places, the humidity is extremely heavy. In addition, there are many forests, the ground is mostly rotten leaves, and it is raining continuously. Ordinary Han people are extremely prone to diseases when they move here.

The most important of these is blood stasis.

This is why, after peppers were introduced to China, the peppers became popular in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and Hunan immediately.

Chili can promote blood circulation and resist moisture. People who love chili, like girls who love to laugh, generally live longer; people who don’t like chili can’t resist various diseases. In the unbearable rainy weather, most of them died young before they got married and had children.

At this time in Ming Dynasty, the number of Han people was also an important factor in the continuous chaos in the southwest. Although there were a large number of migrants, the population did not adapt to the local conditions, and many people fell ill. This is called "water and soil" in this era. Dissatisfied.

Therefore, the population has not increased. In contrast, the natives, who were born and raised here, have long been accustomed to such a situation, but the population has been multiplying and growing.

Fang Jifan decided to supply peppers to Guizhou, and sent a team of Tuntian Guards to promote and grow peppers in Guizhou first.

With this pepper, the situation in Guizhou may be eased a lot.

The letter was sent out, and at this moment, Fang Jifan was much more relaxed because he didn't need to have an operation. He went to the greenhouse in Tuntian Qianhu. The greenhouse here was built with various plants, so the greenhouse was built in various ways.

But at this moment, under a tall greenhouse, a tree was growing that was as tall as a person.

Xu Jing brought too many plants from the West, some of which grew locally in the West, and some came from Europe, and there were even Franji people who brought them from the Golden Continent thousands of miles away.

Apparently, the Franji people have also developed a strong interest in many plants in the Golden Continent, and because the geographical climate of South America is not much different from that of the Western Ocean, they brought a large number of seeds with them, hoping to test them in the Western Ocean. kind.

Now, these seeds with unknown efficacy were bought by Xu Jing at a high price, but they came to Xishan.

This is a wonderful journey, like a butterfly flapping its wings.

Fang Jifan was very interested in this tree growing here, and he divided many plants. Some trees and crops Fang Jifan thought were useful, and he ordered Qianhu to take care of them.

As soon as he heard that Dingyuanhou had arrived at the warm shed, Zhang Xin hurried over. Now, he was completely dressed like an old farmer, with a dusty appearance, not at all like an earl, and even less like the son of an English duke. Throw him in the pile of farmers in Xishan, and you will not be able to find him.

But Zhang Xin didn't care about it. In his world, these crops and plants in Xishan were everything to him.

When he met Fang Jifan and saluted him, Fang Jifan actually found out his conscience and felt sorry for him, look at you, it would be nice to be a scum, but you want to be Shennong, he sighed in his heart, Fang Jifan said to him: "How about this tree? "

"Please don't worry, Lord Hou. There are four such trees here, and three of them have survived. It likes warm soil, so it has been modified by people. It's not a problem. I think it will come to the end of the year.

It can probably grow stronger. "

"We must try our best to cultivate, and when the time comes, we will order people to bring the seeds to Yunnan and Guizhou to promote them."

Zhang Xin looked at Fang Jifan and was a little puzzled: "It's just that I don't understand why the Lord Hou calls it a cinchona tree. Does it have anything to do with chickens?"

Because of Cinchona, you idiot...

Fang Jifan thought to himself.

This cinchona cream, at least in this era, is the holy medicine against malaria. Although this thing has some side effects, compared with the situation of being helpless against malaria in this era, cinchona cream has saved countless people.

At that time, the Qing Dynasty suppressed the civil uprising in the Southwest, and the officers and soldiers carried a large amount of Cinchona. In South America, the West, Tianzhu and other places, the colonists also bred a large number of malaria because of the unacceptable climate. Our colonial rule has made great contributions.

And this thing is actually made by peeling off the bark of the cinchona tree and grinding it into powder, which is simple and efficient.

And malaria is almost a common 'plague' in today's world. With this holy medicine, it is unknown how many people can be saved.

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Because..."

Zhang Xin stared at Fang Jifan, looking eager for Marquis Dingyuan to solve his doubts.

Fang Jifan said slowly, "I love chicken."

"..."

Emperor Hongzhi has been in Xishan for a full month.

In one month, he finally returned to normal. The abdomen has scars, so there is no need to take medicine anymore.

It's not that Dr. Zhu's knife skills are very good, and this wound can be included in textbooks. Therefore, the wound healed very well. Seven or eight days ago, Emperor Hongzhi's sutures were taken out. Now, Emperor Hongzhi looked at his abdomen. A new scar on his face, thinking that he had walked through the gate of hell, he laughed.

His Majesty is moving.

Fang Jifan showed a reluctant look.

Zhu Houzhao was more active and came to see him early in the morning.

"I have seen my father, my father has recovered, I am very happy to congratulate, my son is overjoyed."

Although Emperor Hongzhi and Zhu Houzhao both stayed in Xishan, after Zhu Houzhao was cut off, he did not come to visit Emperor Hongzhi, and Emperor Hongzhi himself did not visit him.

When father and son met, they were a little embarrassed.

After all, the son cut off Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu ordered people to cut off his son.

Emperor Hongzhi no longer needs help from others to walk, and even after a month of recuperation, his health has improved a lot, he is brisk and can jump, he looked at Zhu Houzhao with a smile: "Your body, is it okay? "

Zhu Houzhao said: "Your minister is in good health."

"Hmm." Emperor Hongzhi thought about the daily life note again. He felt very complicated. He felt that his son was a bit like King Zhou in the wine pool and meat forest, but also felt that if he didn't learn from King Zhou, what should he do if he couldn't have a grandson?

He was eagerly looking forward to that moment in his heart, but felt that this moment was too far away.

Because if you cut it, you can have a son?

After all, it is still a bit mysterious.

But at least, hope is better than no hope.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "You also have to take care of your body. It is said that illnesses come like mountains and go away like threads. Don't overwork yourself."

Zhu Houzhao said seriously: "I will remember my father's teachings. My father is going back to the palace. Speaking of this Xishan, my son is the host. For some inexplicable reasons, my son has never come to see my father. My son felt very guilty, therefore, I was thinking, when my father is about to leave, I should be the host and treat my father to a banquet."

"Huh?" Emperor Hongzhi was a little wary.

"Father, please rest assured." Zhu Houzhao said solemnly: "Mr. Wen is in charge of all the food and wine for this banquet. Mr. Wen made a special dish. It is really delicious. It would be a pity if Father didn't enjoy it."

When Emperor Hongzhi heard Mr. Wen's words, he was slightly relieved, and smiled: "Since this is the case, it also shows that you are a filial person. You can arrange it."

Zhu Houzhao was delighted immediately, and hurriedly said: "I obey the order."

Seeing Zhu Houzhao went excitedly.

Emperor Hongzhi sat smiling, Xiao Jing stood aside with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is just recovering from a serious illness, you must not overeat."

This is some kind of reminder, on the surface it is so, but in fact, it seems to say that His Highness the Crown Prince does not know what tricks he is playing, His Majesty should be careful.

Emperor Hongzhi's face was indifferent: "This guy is a person who can't afford to suffer at all. As a grandson of the emperor, I really have a disadvantage to him, so I agreed to go to this Hongmen banquet. I want to see it, and he wants to play." What means."

"Your Majesty is holy!" Xiao Jing said with a smile.

"He, he's too tender."
