Chapter 188 This Request Is Too Simple
Under the control of the emperor, the matter of the god-sent corn seed soon spread throughout the capital and spread to other places.
A man who was destined to return, the real Dragon Emperor, will destroy the previous rumors.
If it is not the real dragon, how can God give seeds.
The people couldn't help but get excited when they heard that the improved seeds could yield thousands of kilograms per mu.
Others ran to the door and knelt down to thank God and the emperor.
I just hope that after the royal family grows corn next year, everyone can plant it in all provinces.
The emperor did not let people deliberately conceal the existence of Lao Dao. After all, a person who is not in the world has nothing to be afraid of.
It also deepens the credibility of the God-given seeds.
As a result, the story of an old immortal in Xiaxi Village also spread in Daliang.
Gradually, many people from other places came to offer incense.
Four days later, several carriages drove into the capital.
Mo Qingling received the news and personally went to the city gate to pick up people.
He looked at Xiao Hanzheng and smiled: "You are here."
He invited again, "I have a yard in the capital. When you are in the capital, just stay with me first."
Just as Xiao Hanzheng was about to speak, Hou Lao, who got off the carriage from the back, said first, "I also have a yard in the capital, and they are going to live with me."
He is Xiao Hanzheng's teacher, and when students come to the capital, of course they have to live with him.
He added, "By the way, I want to introduce some old friends and three of his senior brothers to Jin Yu, so that I can get to know him."
As soon as Mo Qingling heard it, he knew that it was Mr. Hou who wanted to expand his contacts for Xiao Hanzheng.
He smiled and said, "It's naturally the best for Jin Yu to go to Hou's hometown."
Fei Congjun, who originally wanted to invite Xiao Hanzheng and his wife to Fei's house, didn't say it again after hearing what the two of them said.
Mo Qingling thought for a while and said, "You go to Hou's hometown to wash up, and then follow me into the palace to meet the saint."
Xiao Hanzheng bowed his hands to Mo Qingling, "Okay, trouble Shaoqing!"
Fei Congjun returned to Fei's house, while Xiao Hanzheng and his wife went to Hou Lao's residence in the capital.
Hou Lao's old wife has passed away, and he has a son and two daughters.
My son was working as a governor out of town, and his family also brought him there.
Both daughters are already married.
Therefore, there are only some servants guarding the house on this side of Kyoto.
Mr. Hou asked the housekeeper to arrange for Xiao Hanzheng and his wife to live in the guest courtyard next to the main courtyard, which also represented a kind of emphasis.
Xiao Hanzheng cleaned up and followed Mo Qingling into the palace.
Because I greeted him in advance, I met the emperor very smoothly.
The emperor is in the Palace of Qinzheng.
This is equivalent to the study of the emperor's office.
After entering the door, the three immediately saluted.
"Meet Your Majesty!"
The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and looked up at Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo.
Both of them are good looking and have great temperament.
Those who didn't know thought it was a son or a young lady from an aristocratic family.
However, the emperor did not have many surprises. First, he had eyeliner in Nanxi County, and secondly, he also felt that Xiao Hanzheng and his wife, who had done a lot of things, could not be too ordinary.
Otherwise, he will be disappointed.
He raised his hand, "Flat body!"
He first smiled and looked at Shi Qingluo and asked, "I have received your master's wishes, and I will send someone to serve your master's incense instead."
Shi Qingluo is the soul of modern times, so he did not tremble when he saw the emperor.
She smiled slightly and said blessedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor thought that he was indeed an apprentice trained by that old Taoist, and he was indeed extraordinary.
His face was gentle, "God-sent corn, after I planted the beams, it can fill most of the people's stomachs. This is a great achievement."
He turned around and asked, "What reward do you want?"
In the past two days, he was also thinking about what to reward the two of them, but he couldn't make up his mind.
For Xiao Hanzheng and his wife, the emperor's impression is relatively good.
The things that are tampered with are beneficial to the country and the people, such as cement and corn.
The most important thing is that this good seed from heaven came too soon, and resolved the trouble of those rumors for him.
If the reward is too high, it will be too eye-catching.
The emperor knew very well that there was a crisis behind the glory.
He saw Xiao Hanzheng's policy theory sent by the eyeliner, and felt that this was a talent, and he wanted to cultivate it for himself.
Now there are some irreconcilable contradictions between the aristocratic family and the imperial power. The emperor wants to promote a group of officials from the poor family, break through some of the monopoly of the aristocratic family, and suppress the aristocratic family.
If the reward is too high, Xiao Hanzheng will definitely be suppressed by the aristocratic family.
The current Xiao Hanzheng is obviously too weak and his resistance is limited. This is not what he wants to see.
But if the reward is too common, it seems that he doesn't pay much attention to the good seeds bestowed by God.
So this reward made him very embarrassed.
In the end, his niece came up with an idea and asked him to ask Xiao Hanzheng and his wife what they wanted.
He thinks this method is good, as long as it is within his bottom line, what about satisfying the two of them.
Just to try how the two would choose after they suddenly got such a big opportunity, whether he would need to reuse Xiao Hanzheng in the future.
Shi Qingluo was a little surprised that the emperor asked this, but it didn't matter.
She smiled calmly and replied, "This is the heaven-sent seed that the master prepared for the emperor, and the women just planted it to fulfill the master's wish.
, so it's not a great achievement. "
The emperor said with a firm attitude: "Although it is your master who has contributed the most, you are also responsible. I allow both of you and your husband to ask for a reward."
When Shi Qingluo heard what he said, he was not polite.
"Then can the emperor reward the wife of a village with a mountain in the suburbs of Beijing?"
In the future, when Xiao Xianggong passes the jinshi examination or becomes an official, they will definitely come to the capital to live.
Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing with mountains is not only expensive, but it is impossible to buy without some power.
So it's better to use it for rewards. If she gets a benefit, the emperor will not feel that she has a big heart.
The emperor was stunned, "Do you want a Zhuangzi with a mountain?"
This requirement is too simple.
This old immortal's apprentice is not a greedy person, very good!
Shi Qingluo thought about it again, and tentatively said, "It would be better if you could bring a hot spring."
Hot Springs Zhuangzi can soak in hot springs in autumn and winter, and plant some vegetables and fruits around, and eat fresh vegetables in winter.
The emperor laughed, "Okay, then I will reward you with a Zhuangzi with hot springs and mountains."
I had heard that Xiao Hanzheng, a daughter-in-law, likes mountains, but I didn't expect it to be true.
This requirement is too low, he is going to let people go to the suburbs of Beijing to choose a big villa with hot springs and give it to Shi Qingluo.
Then he looked at Xiao Hanzheng and asked, "What about you, what reward do you want?"
Xiao Hanzheng could see that the emperor was determined to reward them, and of course he also meant to test him.
So I wasn't pretentious, I thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, can Caomin go through the examination papers of the imperial examinations in recent years?"
The emperor was stunned again, "Do you want to read the exam papers in recent years to prepare for continuing the exam?"
Xiao Hanzheng said truthfully: "This is one aspect, and the other aspect is that the grass-roots want to organize a book of exam questions by themselves according to the exam questions on the exam paper."
The emperor asked in confusion: "Exam booklet?"
Xiao Hanzheng explained, "According to the general question type and content of the exam papers every year, I imitated some similar questions."
Then the little daughter-in-law and the ideas he instilled were spoken in a way that the emperor could accept.
Shi Qing fell to the side and listened, his eyes lit up, so is the ancient version of "five-year simulated three-year college entrance examination" about to be born?
