Chapter 1934: Returning to Taoyuan Village
It was now August and September, and the rice was about to be harvested in the second season.
On the way, he had also looked at the golden rice fields and felt especially gratified.
Seeing that this year’s harvest was very good, the commoners could not go hungry anymore.
This was one of the most important matters of the people as a ruler.
However, what he did not expect was that the rice fields in Taoyuan Village looked even more gratifying. The harvest must have been even better.
However, in the past two to three years, Taoyuan Village’s harvest was always better than other places.
In other places, the best harvest was about seven stones per mu, but in Taoyuan Village, it was eight or nine stones per mu.
The Emperor looked at the gratifying rice fields and asked with a smile,” Girl, when can we harvest these rice?”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and smiled.” I don’t know. Old Master, I came back with you. I haven’t had the time to go to the fields to take a look.”
Lin Deshan smiled and replied,” Brother Wen, it’ll probably be three or four days. If the weather is fine!”
When the Emperor heard this, he understood and said,” Alright, then it’s better for me to come at the right time than to come early!”
The corners of Lin Yuelan’s mouth twitched. He was rushing to harvest the rice.
Lin Yuelan smiled and teased him,” Then, Old Master, don’t complain about being tired later.”
“You little girl, you’ve underestimated me!” The Emperor also smiled, his mood clearly much better.
After all, the Emperor was a little old. He had suffered a major shock previously, and his health was not very good. In addition, he had travelled a long distance and was tired from the journey. He must be tired.
From the moment they entered the village, they didn’t go to other places to admire the scenery. They directly went to Lin Garden to rest.
His room was still kept at the Lin Garden.
After all, he was the king of a country. He didn’t know when he would come to Taoyuan Village again, but they had to prepare a room for him.
Perhaps it was because he had let down his guard and relaxed his mind, or perhaps it was because of the elegant environment of Taoyuan Village that he fell into a deep sleep.
Eunuch Zhang wiped the corners of his eyes when he saw the Emperor sleeping. He was very touched and whispered to Lin Yuelan beside him,” Your Majesty hasn’t slept so soundly in a long time!”
Lin Yuelan frowned slightly, then nodded and said,” Then let the old man have a good rest! Let’s go out!”
Lin Yuelan and the others came out.
Lin Deshan did not ask earlier, but now he asked worriedly,” Little girl, The emp… Brother Wen, what happened to him? His mental state clearly doesn’t look as good as before.”
Lin Yuelan said,” Grandfather, it’s fine. Don’t worry!”
Knowing that Lin Yuelan wasn’t willing to tell him, Lin Deshan didn’t ask further.
Then, he thought of something and said,” I’ll ask the kitchen to prepare some light and appetizing food for Brother Wen to eat when he wakes up!”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” Grandfather, I’ll go! I prepared all the food for the old master along the way!” The dishes she had prepared were all filled with spirit spring water.
Before he could completely relax his mind, Lin Yuelan used the spiritual spring water to rejuvenate him every day to maintain his physical condition.
The old Emperor had always been very good to her, and she did not want the old Emperor to pass away just like that.
She tried her best to let him live longer, which was beneficial to her.
When Lin Deshan heard this, he nodded and said,” Mm, alright. You can go! Eunuch Zhang, you must be tired from the journey. You should go and rest. Brother Zhang and I are here to take care of Brother Wen. You don’t have to worry!”
Eunuch Zhang hesitated for a moment before nodding.” Thank you, Old Masters!”
“Eunuch Zhang, you’re too polite!” Lin Deshan said with a smile.
The old Emperor slept for most of the day. When he woke up, the sky outside was already dark.
Under the servant’s service, he quickly finished rinsing.
When he arrived at the courtyard under the guidance of the servants, he was stunned when he saw the scenery in the courtyard.
Lanterns were hung all around, illuminating the entire courtyard. It reflected the exotic flowers and plants in the courtyard, making it especially beautiful. What surprised him the most was that there was a small lake in the courtyard. Water gushed out from the lake, and the water shot straight into the air and fell down. It was very beautiful.
The Emperor pointed at the small lake curiously and asked,” Girl, this is amazing. How did you do it?”
It was natural for water to flow downwards, but the water in this lake was clearly gushing upwards from the bottom.
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” Old Master, this is called a fountain! This fountain can even dance to the music.”
The Emperor’s eyes immediately lit up, and he asked with interest,” Really?”
Lin Yuelan nodded. She snapped her fingers and shouted,” Play some music!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the band that had been waiting for a long time immediately began to play music!
Of course, this band was a combination of Chinese and Western music that Lin Yuelan had carefully nurtured.
It was just that the people there did not know.
