[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember it in a second, never lose it!

If there is any change in Xishan, it is that large-scale gentry and landlord associations came in chariots, horses and sedan chairs.

Food is the most important thing for the people. They have land, and what to plant on the land in order to get the maximum benefit is what they are most concerned about.

Sweet potatoes are going to be planted in various prefectures and counties in the coming year, and the Tuntian Thousand Households Institute is also ready. A large number of Xinxiaowei and warriors who came here began to understand the characteristics of sweet potatoes and many other things under the guidance of the backbone. Planting tips.

But for the big households around the capital, they don’t have to wait for the prefectures and prefectures to try planting before promoting it. It’s a month to get close to the water. Therefore, I came to investigate and want to see how much the real output of this sweet potato is. This thing can be eaten ? Can you fill your stomach? Can the leaves be used for cooking?

Cautious wealthy households and gentry always have natural cunning, and they believe that seeing is believing.

Therefore, Xishan was really lively for a while,

However, Fang Jifan's only impression of these old rich and local tyrants is that they are stingy, they obviously have land, and when they come, they are accompanied by their long-term attendants, but they are very stingy in inns and teahouses.

The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Fang Jifan thought of something, so he wrote a letter to his father who was thousands of miles away, and at the same time asked someone to bring sweet potatoes.

At the same time, the Tuntian Thousand Households Institute will dispatch a group of cadres to go to Guizhou first. For their own family, the fertilizer will not flow to outsiders' fields. The promotion of sweet potatoes will be the first to be implemented in Guizhou.

To Fang Jifan's regret, it would be even better if there were corn, cassava, pepper, and rubber. If these are first promoted in Guizhou County, they will definitely be first-class economic crops, especially pepper, which is very hot and humid in Yunnan and Guizhou. , The so-called miasma, in fact, to some extent, is also because of this kind of environment, it is difficult for ordinary Han people to adapt, and peppers can promote blood circulation, these places are the most suitable for eating peppers.

In the past few days, Zhu Houzhao has been running to the West Mountain more frequently, and now he has become blatant, in the name of studying, of course.

After all, Fang Jifan is now a minor business, and it is more convenient to come and go. The palace doesn't seem to ask too much about it. Emperor Hongzhi still trusts Fang Jifan, but there are more guards when he comes. Zhu Houzhao is still in regular clothes , Try not to show mountains and dews.

Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi Yang Tinghe became increasingly dissatisfied.

In the past, you could turn a blind eye and close one eye. You are the crown prince and you are the biggest, but after he sneaked to the palace to complain, the crown prince didn't show restraint, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry. If this continues, what kind of dignity will it be? Woolen cloth?

He couldn't bear it anymore, so on this day, he hurried to the Nuan Pavilion to see the cabinet's chief assistant scholar in person.

Liu Jian has been very busy recently, almost without touching the ground. He is different from Yang Ting and other Qingliu, he only buries his head in the sea of ​​books and has so much leisure time.

Especially now that the top priority of the affairs of the DPRK and China is the voyage to the West, which involves the required manpower and material resources, the required money and food, and even the training personnel, and finally he needs to make the final decision.

After the notification, Yang Tinghe entered the value room, while Liu Jian took advantage of this gap and continued to draw up the ticket in his hand.

Yang Tinghe had no choice but to stand aside and wait for a while, but Liu Jian didn't seem to realize it, buried his head in the copybook, and seemed to have forgotten the fact that Yang Tinghe was allowed to meet just now.

After waiting for a long time, Yang Tinghe finally coughed uncontrollably.

Only then did Liu Jian raise his eyes, couldn't help laughing, put down his pen lightly, and said, "Oh, Mrs. Jie, you're here, sit down and talk."

Yang Tinghe refused to sit down, but said seriously: "The disaster is imminent, is Liu Gong still free?"

"..."

Liu Jian's reaction to Yang Tinghe's anxiety was not great.

In fact, he understands the routines of the Qingliu Imperial Academy too well. He likes to go online for everything, and the big things are related to the safety of the country. He... is used to it.

Liu Jian smiled and said, "I don't have time to spare. I'm waiting for an explanation for the two capitals and thirteen provinces. Why, what's going to happen?"

"His Royal Highness, I don't want to study anymore, and I don't see you all day long. Liu Gong, the prince is the prince, and it is related to the well-being of the world. It must not be ignored." Yang Tinghe glanced at Liu Jian, and said in a deep voice: "Zhan Shifu It's useless, especially since His Majesty has appointed a military honorary as Shao Zhan's job, what kind of decency is this, it's unprecedented, it's really worrying..."

"I will pay attention to this matter." Liu Jian nodded.

Hearing this, he was actually quite worried. He really couldn't go on for long, but he is very busy now, and his highness is going to Xishan, and Fang Jifan is there, so there won't be too much trouble. For Fang Jifan, Liu Jian still admired it faintly.

Yang Tinghe was dissatisfied with Liu Jian's reaction, so he continued: "I heard that Fang Jifan set up an academy in Xishan to teach new studies. I'm afraid he might miss the crown prince. Isn't Mr. Liu worried?"

New learning?

Liu Jian Su Rong, regarding this new learning, it seems that there are quite a few noises within the court, but there will always be some crazy students who claim that Cheng Zhu misunderstood the children, and the court actually doesn't care much.

After all, it is stereotyped selection of scholars, as long as Cheng Zhu's classics are tested in the stereotyped essays, then even a little noise will not make waves.

Looking at Liu Jian's face, Yang Tinghe continued: "This is a rumor to confuse the public, if you miss the prince because of this..."

Liu Jian was silent, and said after a long time: "Okay, the old man knows."

that's it? Yang Tinghe was not reconciled, so he said again: "Grand Liu..."

liu

Jian smiled slightly and interrupted: "Go ahead, the old man will pay attention."

Yang Tinghe couldn't help but shook his head. At this time, he was still young, far from the prime minister in history who entered the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister, and even launched a grand ceremony, and could stand up to the emperor. So he bowed to Liu Jian, quite a bit Divide the grievances: "If the prince is deceived by others, no matter how many votes are drawn, the harm will be irreversible."

Saying goodbye, he left.

Liu Jian didn't draw up a pen to draw up a ticket. Looking at the empty valet, he seemed to have fallen into silence.

In fact, what Yang Tinghe said was not unreasonable.

But he didn't express it on the spot because he couldn't express his position in front of Yang Tinghe. This statement, when it was spread, was clearly a signal that Liu Gong hated Fang Jifan, or Fang Jifan's wicked schemes, and the prince went astray.

At that time, what kind of uproar will be caused in the whole court, and what terrible impact will be caused. Needless to say, first of all, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, those hyperactive censors, will flood the entire cabinet with impeachment memorials.

He closed his eyes, pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Come here, invite Wu Shizhong."

This Wu Shizhong, a second-class Jinshi in the third year of Hongzhi, was born in Jiangxi. He was later awarded the Ministry of War to Shizhong. He had just arrived at the Ministry of War. When the people in the two capitals and Shandong, Henan, and Zhejiang were famines, Emperor Hongzhi issued an edict to provide relief. Awaiting investigation and verification. However, Wu Shizhong spoke out about his disadvantages, so he listed the construction of water conservancy projects and the restoration of official warehouses. Because his memorials were clear and well-organized, most of them were adopted by the court.

Liu Jian liked this young man very much. Although his rank in the imperial examination was not high, but at such a young age, he was able to complain about the shortcomings of the imperial court in the process of helping the victims, which showed that he was not just a talker.

So Liu Jian decided to promote him, and now, Wu Shizhong is in the Ministry of Rites.

After a few cups of tea, Wu Shizhong hurried over and bowed to Liu Jian: "Mr. Liu..."

He is a person who seems to be loyal. In the Hongzhi Dynasty, loyalty was very popular, just like Ouyang Zhi, not only liked by the emperor, but also praised by Liu Jian.

Liu Jian said directly to Wu Shizhong: "You have to go to Xishan."

When Wu Shizhong heard it, he understood, and said: "The matter of Xishan, the lower officials have also heard about it, and the lower officials understand."

Liu Jian smiled and said: "You can go in casual clothes this time, and don't say anything to anyone. You just listen and watch. If there is any result, report directly to the old man. Don't make it public."

Wu Shizhong nodded respectfully and said, "I understand."

So Liu Jian waved his hand: "Let's go."

Wu Shizhong saluted, and then hurried away.

Liu Jian was still a little flustered in his heart, Yang Tinghe was actually right, the crown prince was indeed related to the country, this is not a joke, let's check it out in advance.

He lowered his head and prepared to draw a ticket again, but after a while, he saw that the value room was very quiet. He wanted to drink tea, and subconsciously picked it up, but found that the tea was cold, and said: "Come, hot tea."

He yelled for a while, but there was no movement. He couldn't help being a little annoyed, and raised his eyes subconsciously.

But at some point, Emperor Hongzhi was standing beside him, with his hands behind his back, looking down at him as he drafted the ticket.

Liu Jian hurriedly wanted to get up and salute, but Emperor Hongzhi patted him on the shoulder and said, "The Qing family has worked hard, so there is no need to be too polite, I just took a look at it casually. This proposed ticket is the Shuntian Mansion's request to promote sweet potatoes immediately. ?"

"Yes." Liu Jian thought for a while and said, "Shuntian Mansion means that the Tuntian Thousand Households Institute is too slow to promote it as soon as possible. However, the old minister thinks that such a major event should not be Meng Lang. There is something to be said by the Tuntian Thousand Households Institute The truth is, to popularize it, you need to gradually develop it. First, set up test fields in various state capitals. According to the soil quality and climate of each place, first observe the growth of sweet potatoes, and then slowly expand it. Only in this way can it be foolproof. .”

"Hmm." Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "Governing a big country is like cooking a small delicacy. Unexpectedly, promoting this sweet potato coincides with the principles of governing a country."

Liu Jian also smiled and said: "This is not coincidence, but when it involves tens of thousands of people, we must always be cautious, otherwise a small disturbance will become a big thing." Ah, Your Majesty is here, but for the crown prince?"

"..."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Liu Jian and said with a broken smile, "It's still Liu Qing's family who knows me."

Liu Jian shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not the old minister who knows His Majesty, but the old minister who knows Yang Tinghe. Yang Tinghe also came to see the old minister just now. Seeing how negligent the old minister is, the old minister is thinking that he must go to sue."
