The aide also couldn’t help but sigh in praise. “With such magnanimity, how can we know that the Yu Clan won’t produce a second ‘First Minister of the Six

Dynasties?”

The next morning, Ye Xiaoci listed the benefits of the hairy vetch one by one and expressed that the government office wanted to promote the planting of the hairy vetch with Eldest Princess Shaoyi.

As soon as the news spread, the entire Liaodong went crazy.

After sprinkling hairy vetch seeds on the idle fields, they could live without having to care about them. Not only could they be eaten, they could also be used to fertilize the land and increase the production of crops and raise the

livestock In tne family. wny not(

After the autumn harvest, Liaodong started a trend of planting hairy vetch.

The effect was also very pleasing.

The hairy vetch was a cross-winter crop that grew quickly. In the spring of the next year, the animal husbandry in Liaodong had clearly increased by 30% compared to before the new year.

The hairy vetch was more tender than ordinary grass. Be it cows, sheep, donkeys, or horses, they liked to eat hairy vetch more. The livestock that ate hairy vetch clearly grew fatter and stronger.

When it came to the autumn harvest, the production of soybeans had increased by 30%. The crops such as great millet, corn, winter wheat, and cotton had also increased to varying degrees.

Increased crop production also led to agricultural development in the Liaodong area.

There was another craze for reclamation in the North.

The commoners thought it was simple. Since the hairy vetch could improve the land, they would let it cover every inch of Liaodong.

After the effect of the green manure was displayed, Yu Youyao summarized the other fertilizers in the agricultural book, such as manure, bone fertilizer, mud fertilizer, mixed fertilizer, soil fertilizer, and more. She promoted simpler and easier methods to make fertilizer.

For example, she promoted the decaying method, the simmering method, the method to make waterlogged fertilizer, and so on.

Agriculture in the north was not developed, and the fertilization method was not widely used here. However, in fact, using the appropriate fertilizer measures could make the fertilizer more nutritious and increase crop production.

This method was even more widely used in the manors of wealthy families.

The fertilizer method received another enthusiastic response from the commoners.

Every family dug a few deep pits beside their fields and sorted the different fertilizers in their lives according to the records of the various fertilization methods.

After a month of promotion, the results were already beginning to show.

Yu Youyao’s reputation in the North had almost reached its peak.

This work lasted for more than a year.

The winery that Yu Youyao had been thinking about was also on the right track.

In addition to the various types of wine in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the winery mainly brewed great millet wine, as well as all kinds of milk and medicinal

wine produced by the Northern Barbarians. Most of them were sold at a low price.

At this moment, Yu Youyao was already 16.

As the mourning period was about to end, the Yu Clan had already written many times to ask about her marriage. Although they had no intention of interfering, their concern was very obvious.

After Yu Shande came to Jinzhou, the siblings met after so many years and sighed with emotion. They talked about each other’s recent situation and fortuitous encounters.

Only then did she learn that back then, after the refugees in the Longcheng refugee camp were settled, there was still a group of injured, seriously ill, or infected refugees who had not been settled down. In addition, the drought in the pass was still ongoing, and there were still many refugees who had fled over one after another. Yu Shande did not leave Longcheng.

“… Due to the calamity of foreign countries, many ambitious people have surged into the Liaodong area.” Yu Shande was tall and strong, and he was in good spirits. He was wearing an old robe that had been washed until it was white. It looked empty on him, and his thin bones showed off his strong character.

Yu Youyao could almost see the portrait of Duke Zhonglie hanging high in the

Yu Clan’s school. She both admired and sighed. “You contributed greatly to the successful resettlement of more than two million refugees.”

Yu Shande shook his head and only said, “I’m just doing my best. Let’s leave it to fate.’

After chatting for a while, Yu Shande changed the topic. “I met Heir Song on the way to Jinzhou.”

Yu Youyao couldn’t help but be stunned. It had been a long time since she had heard any news about Song Mingzhao. The last time she had heard of him was when the Xie family had received a letter from the Yu Clan before they were about to leave Quanzhou. The letter mentioned that Song Mingzhao was going to be demoted to Dehua County in Quanzhou as a county magistrate and would arrive in Quanzhou in a few days.

For a moment, she actually felt that Song Mingzhao was haunting her.

Song Mingzhao was an outsider, and it was only because of the relationship between the Song and Yu families that he had mentioned it. It seemed to be a gloss over, but the Yu Clan might have the intention of asking Yu Youyao to take care of Song Mingzhao.

The Xie Residence had a lot of influence in Quanzhou. Song Mingzhao thought that using the Xie Residence’s connections, his career would be smoother.

The two families were family friends, so it was human nature.

However, before Song Mingzhao could come to Quanzhou, Yu Youyao had already arrived in Liaodong with the Xie family.

Yu Shande sighed. “Heir Song has really had a rough time in the past few years. Not long after he took office in Dehua, he was targeted by the Jiazhou Residence. He sensed that something was amiss in Quanzhou and secretly sent a message into the capital, but…”

He couldn’t help but shake his head.

However, Yu Youyao knew that Yu Zongshen had been mourning. The three princes were fighting for the throne, and the court was in chaos. Song

Mingzhao’s every move was monitored, so the news couldn’t be spread clearly. In addition, there was no substantial evidence. The Marquis of Zhen tried repeatedly in the court, but he was always stopped by Concubine Lu. In the end, nothing happened.

Otherwise, Thief Liang wouldn’t have been able to take down Quanzhou so easily.

As for whether Yin Huaixi was involved, it was unknown.

Yu Shande admired Song Mingzhao quite a bit. Furthermore, they were old friends in the capital in the past. His tone revealed a hint of appreciation, so he couldn’t help but mention a few more words.

“After failing to send the news, Heir Song planned to leave. Fortunately, the Zhenguo Marquis Residence sent many secret guards to protect his safety.

Before he came to Dehua, he hid a portion of his people in the dark. The Zhenguo Duke’s Residence also knew that something was amiss in Quanzhou and secretly sent experts to receive him. Song Mingzhao also successfully escaped from Quanzhou before the King of Liang rebelled.”

When he met Song Mingzhao, his words revealed how difficult and dangerous it was.

After leaving Quanzhou, Song Mingzhao had been kidnapped and was almost killed several times. For a moment, he couldn’t even return to the capital. He fled to Zhejiang and used the north-south trade route to come to Liaodong.

Not only was Yu Shande sighing, but Yu Youyao also sighed. “It hasn’t been easy for Heir Song in the past few years.”

Her calm words revealed a hint of relief.

Yu Zongshen admired Song Mingzhao very much. The Song and Yu families were family friends. If it weren’t for the cheating in the imperial examination, Song Mingzhao would have entered the royal court in advance. With Yu Zongshen!s high regard, Song Mingzhao would soon be able to establish himself in the court. When Yu Zongshen was mourning, the resources of the Song and Yu families in the court would definitely be heavily biased towards Song Mingzhao. In less than a year, there would definitely be a place for Song Mingzhao in the cabinet.

Song Mingzhao originally had a bright future, but in the end, because of an instance of cheating in an examination, he had reached a turning point in his fate and ruined his future.

It was really fate.

Yu Shande sighed softly. “When I saw Heir Song, the talented Heir Song was extremely thin. He seemed to be sick. I heard that he came to Liaodong this time to seek treatment..
