The emperor can say that corn is a high-yielding crop, and he is not picky about the fields. But in the hands of the Ministry of Households, they can't even take back the seeds? In the past half a month, the officials of the Ministry of Accounting have been extremely anxious, and the Minister of the Ministry of Accounting feels that half of his hair has turned gray in a hurry!
The emperor is concerned about the country and the people, and people's livelihood is the most important thing. If the high-yield corn falls into their hands, then I don't know if he can keep the official hat on his head!
Today, when I saw the green and strong corn seedlings growing well, although there was only one plant, Shangshu Hubu saw hope. It turns out that it's not that they can't grow it, but that their method is wrong!
"Young King Yang, how do you grow this corn?" All the resentment towards King Yang in the Shangshu's heart disappeared in an instant.
Being stared at passionately by an old man in his fifties with a wrinkled face, if Zhu Junyang hadn't had a strong heart, he would probably have nightmares at night!
He moved to the side, and glanced at a minister with strong malice in the seat—Master Du Censor Yang, thinking in his heart when did he offend this stern censor? It seems that he has never beaten his son, has he
"Young King Yang, the corn seedlings are growing really well. It seems that you have worked hard on them, right?" The person who spoke was Lord Du Du, who has a good relationship with King Jing.
Zhu Junyang glanced at the emperor's cousin who was sitting behind the imperial case, and said with a blank expression, "Your Majesty, this corn plant was not planted by me, and I know a thing or two about the planting process. "
"Oh? You didn't plant it? Then where did this plant come from? Don't tell me, it is a seed that you accidentally dropped, and it germinated and grew up!" Jianwen Emperor Zhu Junfan raised his eyebrows and changed his mind. With one hand under his chin, he looked at him with interest.
This little cousin has grown up like a little adult since he was a child, with a stern face, an expression of being thousands of miles away. Who knows, the pink and handsome appearance, coupled with the disobedient expression, gives people a kind of contrast and cuteness. Zhu Junfan was nearly ten years older than him, and he liked to tease him since he was a child. It was very interesting to see him get angry and act like "not as knowledgeable as you"!
Zhu Junyang has long been accustomed to the emperor's bad taste, and he has been able to calm down. He said in his usual cold tone: "At the pier, I once gave some seeds to a peasant girl for their family to try. These corns are the It was planted by a woman's family!"
"Peasant girl? How old are you? Are you beautiful?" Zhu Junfan's eyes suddenly lit up. This little cousin, with his outstanding appearance, is admired by many ladies in Beijing. But he is like a lump of wood, he doesn't understand, and he treats everyone with an indifferent attitude that is thousands of miles away. I don't know how many beauties have been hurt! This time, he would talk to a peasant girl and give her a gift. Could it be that the cousin's spring has come
Your Majesty, we are talking about business, what is your gossiping expression about? Zhu Junyang frowned gradually, and said with a blunt expression: "Back to the emperor, that peasant girl is not yet ten years old. As for whether she is pretty or not... I don't know what your so-called beauty standard is!"
Less than ten years old? ? Can't you tell, the little cousin still has a pedophile habit! ! The emperor touched his chin with a wretched expression, and continued: "The standard of beauty? You don't think it's ugly and intrusive, so it's done!"
The pink and tender face appeared in front of his eyes, the big black talking eyes, the petal-like mouth that loves to laugh, and the rich expression that attracts people's attention. Zhu Junyang's cold eyes softened, and he nodded: "It's not ugly. , not an eyesore!"
Seeing that the emperor is crooked, the Secretary of the Household Department is so anxious! He kept rubbing his hands, and finally couldn't help but interjected: "Young King Yang, is this corn grown by that peasant girl's family?"
Zhu Junyang didn't have any ill feeling towards Liu Shangshu, who was determined to complete the task. He glanced at him, nodded, and said, "That peasant girl's family is a well-known farming expert in the local area. It's not yet the season for planting. Their family's Vegetables are already sold! At this time, their watermelons are already ripe, and they taste sweeter than those sold in Beijing! This time I went to Tanggu, I also wanted to see if they could grow the corn that we were helpless with. .As expected, they did not disappoint Chen..."
Huh? The little cousin who has an adulterous relationship and who usually cherishes words like gold, actually talks eloquently when talking about this little peasant girl! (Your Majesty, which ear did you hear the minister talking about the little peasant girl? The minister clearly said that their family knows how to farm!)
wrong! Spring in the north is still relatively cold, and there will be frost sooner or later in early spring. How can we grow vegetables? And watermelon, isn't it only available in summer? It's only the end of spring now, and the watermelon will be ripe... Could it be that someone from the small farmer's family has traveled through time and mastered the technology of greenhouses? Not right! Now there is no plastic film, how can we build a greenhouse? Could it be that someone in the small peasant girl's family has space to plant? Isn't it often written in novels, traveling with space!
Zhu Junfan firmly believed that in this world, besides him and the emperor's grandfather, he must have other time travelers. He has also been looking for his fellow traveler, did he really find him this time
"Junyang, who is better at farming? How can you break the law of plant growth?" Zhu Junfan became more interested and asked.
Zhu Junyang thought about it, then Yu Xiaocao could recognize the corn at a glance, and said he knew how to plant it. Either she has seen corn, or, like the emperor's cousin, she knows of the existence of corn for some reason, but they just know! Xiaocao didn't seem to want the emperor to know her difference, he didn't know why, and he didn't want the emperor to be interested in her, so he shook his head and said: "I don't know too well, I only know that the vegetables grown by the little peasant girl are her mother's. She is taking care of; the watermelons planted are all borne by her father."
"Oh? Junyang knows the situation of her family quite clearly!" Even the cousin who can turn a blind eye to the first lady in the capital knows a little peasant girl so clearly, even a fool would not believe it if he said there was no inside story!
Zhu Junyang nodded his head as a matter of course, and said: "That little peasant girl is the goddaughter recognized by General Fang! When Mrs. Fang was in Tanggu Town, she had a close relationship with her mother and concubine."
Although Zhu Junyang's words explained why he knew the little peasant girl's family so well, Zhu Junfan just felt that the little cousin's attitude towards the little peasant girl was unusual. However, there is no need to rush into matters of affection, that little peasant girl is only ten years old. Judging by the appearance of the little cousin, it is estimated that there is still a period of time before leaving the body, take your time, everything will become clear by itself!
"Your Majesty, I want to go to Tanggu Town, I hope His Majesty will grant you permission!" Liu Shangshu knelt down in front of the imperial case impatiently. Someone could grow corn, and it was so good, Liu Shangshu wished he could put on his wings, fly to that family immediately, and inquire about the method of planting clearly!
It has to be said that this Liu Shangshu also has the pedantic spirit of worrying about the country and the people, and vowing not to give up until he reaches his goal.
"Liu Shangshu, are you trying to steal my job?" Zhu Junyang didn't know why, but he didn't want Liu Shangshu to go. If he went, wouldn't there be nothing wrong with me? no! He finally had an excuse to go to Tang Gu to accompany his mother and concubine, and he couldn't let him take away the errand!
Zhu Junyang himself has never realized that in the deepest part of his heart, there is another reason that he hides very secretly - after taking this errand, he will be able to contact her openly.
well! What about staying away from others? Emotion and reason are often contradictory, aren't they
Liu Shangshu let out an "uh" and said after a long while: "Your Majesty Yang, I don't want to take credit for your achievements, but I just want to figure out the method of planting earlier..."
"Okay! Stop arguing, both of you!! Liu Shangshu, I know that you are dedicated to serving the people, but this matter was initiated by the king of Yangjun. It's more appropriate for him."
Since the little cousin is interesting to him, Zhu Junfan naturally wants to create opportunities for him! People often say that "long time makes love". If you have more contacts, your little cousin may be able to get better sooner. However, the little girl is too young, and the little cousin has to wait for five or six years, and some wait! Your Majesty, is your gloating tone really good
Liu Shangshu felt like a cat scratching in his heart, and wanted to see how the corn was grown with his own eyes. He continued to ask for orders without giving up: "Your Majesty, next time the King of Yangjun goes to Tanggu Town, please allow the old minister to accompany you!"
"Okay! Sure!!" Zhu Junfan knew that the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs was stubborn, so if he was not allowed to go, he might get sick in a hurry. Liu Shangshu's seriousness is not a bad thing!
The corn that Zhu Junyang brought back from Tanggu Town gave a powerful counterattack to the ministers who impeached him—we didn’t neglect our duties and went to Tanggu to see our mother and concubine, we were doing business! The method of planting corn is the real purpose of our trip to Tanggu, and seeing the mother and concubine is just a side trip...
Prince Yang, when you said these words, you were not guilty!
Just when Zhu Junyang was about to come out of the imperial study, his emperor's cousin suddenly said, "Junyang! Didn't you say that the watermelons from the little farm girl's house are ripe? Didn't you bring some back?"
Zhu Junyang and the ministers had a few black lines hanging from their foreheads: Your majesty, is it really okay for you to ask for things like a courtier in such a grand manner
Zhu Junyang drooped his eyelids, and said stiffly: "I rushed back all the way, so it's not easy to bring too many things. The watermelon will be transported back by the guards. Once you arrive in Beijing, I will definitely bring it to you in person."
If there is watermelon to eat, two days later it will be two days later! With a contented smile, Zhu Junfan waved his hand to signal that he could leave.
When he left the palace, Zhu Junyang had a dark face, with an expression that strangers should not enter. Naturally, the other ministers would not come up with trouble. But Liu Shangshu never belonged to the winking family, so he leaned over and asked, "Yang Junwang, vegetables are grown in early spring, and now you can eat ripe watermelons. Is what you said true?"
"Who dares to lie in front of the emperor? Bullying the emperor is a felony!" Zhu Junyang said to him angrily.
