Daming Junior Scholar

Zhengde on the dragon chair continued to say proudly: "I'm afraid you don't know yet. The yield per mu of these two kinds of grains is enough to surprise everyone. It's not enough for you to guess. If you guess right, I will definitely reward you a lot." Among the crowd It's not that everyone doesn't know the yield per mu of corn and sweet potatoes. They just cooperate with Zhengde tacitly and dare not tell the truth. They can only start with three or four stones, and then add little by little, directly after ten stones , Masanori

Only then nodded happily.

ten stone?Although everyone present here is a pillar of the Ming Dynasty, it does not mean that they know nothing about farming. On the contrary, they attach great importance to crop production. This is the key to whether Daming can maintain stability

, Only when the food is stable can the life of the common people be stable, and they will not make any uprisings because they can't eat enough.

If it is said that this corn can really achieve such a high yield per mu, even if the taste is a little worse, it can still solve a problem that has plagued Ming Dynasty for so long. How can this make these ministers not excited.

And what made them even more excited was the output of sweet potatoes. If it could reach twenty shi, wouldn't sweet potatoes alone be able to solve the problem of eating for the people of Ming Dynasty?Finally, someone couldn't help but stood up and asked questioningly: "Your Majesty Qizuo, there is no child's play in the court. After all, the high yield of corn and sweet potatoes has far exceeded my knowledge, so I would like to ask this person Mr. He, these two crops

Where did it come from? "He Jiaan suddenly smiled, then pointed in the direction of the gate, and said with a smile: "There is nothing to keep secret about this, have you ever seen the Franji man who just went out?What I can tell you is that two years ago I was in Qingjiangpu

To get acquainted with him, the seeds of corn, sweet potatoes, and many other crops were brought from far away Europe. "Where is Europa? Everyone is at a loss, but everyone understands one thing. It turns out that He Jiaan met this Franji man two years ago. No wonder that Franji man and He Jiaan talked There is nothing on the face

Surprised look.

Then the man asked again: "Young Master He said that the yield of corn per mu can reach [-] shi, and the yield of sweet potatoes can reach [-] shi, but have you tested it yourself?"

"Naturally." He Jia'an nodded and said, "Sima Yuan, magistrate of Qingjiangpu County, saw it with his own eyes." The name Sima Yuan is familiar to many of you here, and some of them are even his colleagues in the Ministry of Punishment. He is quite trustworthy, and since Sima Yuan is the guarantee, it is certain that there will be no impact on the output.

Fake.

After asking a few more questions, He Jia'an finished answering them one by one. This time, this person had no questions, so he could only stand back with admiration.After waiting for a while, Zhengde saw that no one asked about the corn and sweet potatoes, so he said slowly: "Mr. later, quasi

Be prepared to make an exception and send Mr. He to the military battle bureau first to preside over the development of artillery and muskets. As for the official position... tentatively designated as the sixth-rank master, rewards will be added after achievements are made. I will come here this morning and leave the court. "

It took a long time to open this morning, and with Zhengde's unstable temperament, he was already impatient, and after a hasty order, he retreated.Zhengde is going down, but He Jiaan, who has just been conferred an official position, still feels a little confused. You must know that this step has almost passed the official position that many people dream of. since

As soon as I came up, I was at the sixth rank. This kind of starting point is really too high.At this moment, someone around him came to congratulate He Jiaan. Although among this group of people, the position of the sixth grade is too small, but seeing Zhengde's attitude towards He Jiaan just now, everyone already had a rough idea in their hearts. idea

, if this speed is followed, maybe after more than ten years, there will be a place for He Jia'an in the court. It's better to have a good relationship with Dorala while he is still young.In the face of these top officials of the Ming Dynasty, He Jiaan's face was about to twitch with a smile, and he returned the salute one by one, for fear of making others angry. At this moment, someone beside him suddenly said: "Mr. Come on, tell me about your

What to do with corn and sweet potatoes. "He Jiaan turned his head to look, and it was none other than Yang Tinghe, the chief assistant of the cabinet, who said this.

Chapter 715

It's hard to imagine that a teahouse with an extremely ordinary appearance has such an exquisite design inside. He Jiaan seemed to have returned to the Jiangnan water town. Sitting in the middle of the gazebo, He Jiaan couldn't help but sigh: "Master Yang can find such an elegant teahouse."

So, it's really rare. ""hehe. "Yang Tinghe, who was sitting across from him, chuckled lightly, and then said: "This kind of garden is indeed very rare in the north, but Mr. He is from the south of the Yangtze River, so how can you never see this kind of scenery, you should sit down quickly. , a few words I want

chat with you. "

Well, it's an exaggeration for nothing, people don't appreciate it at all.He Jiaan obediently sat down on the stool, watching Yang Tinghe skillfully brewing tea, while he stared at the teapot intently. After Yang Tinghe put down the teapot, he smiled and asked, "Master Yang, what do you want to say? yes

. "At this time, Yang Tinghe was still a little entangled in his attitude towards He Jiaan. On the one hand, he was a little jealous of He Jiaan's rapid rise. When I saw him for the first time the day before yesterday, he was just an ordinary citizen. but one

In the blink of an eye, he was promoted to the head of the sixth rank. Such a situation is probably extremely rare in the entire history of the Ming Dynasty.But then again, there are advantages and disadvantages. He Jiaan's starting point in the officialdom is so high. It may not be a good thing for him. It is easy for him to develop an arrogant temper. If he continues to be popular, That's okay

I can ignore it, but if he is not wanted by His Majesty, this temper may become a problem that imprisons him from moving forward.I have seen too many young and promising officials. As soon as they entered the officialdom, they thought about saving the people from the fire and water. They acted like a savior wherever they went. The things they did were not recognized by the people. In the end but had to fall

An ending of running away in despair, and then disappearing among the world.Although I have long been used to this kind of scene, when Yang Tinghe saw He Jiaan this time, he still couldn't help calling him out alone. As for whether he can listen to his own words, whether he takes it to heart or not, it's not me were able

It counts.

"How old is Jia'an this year? Have you ever taken the imperial examination?" He Jia'an showed a wry smile when he mentioned the imperial examination, and sighed softly: "Although the boy studied hard from Xiao Hanchuang, he is not talented enough, and he didn't get anything good. He took part in the imperial examination in February and was almost rejected by the county magistrate at the time.

Harmful, if Lord Sima hadn't happened to pass by Qingjiangpu to save the boy's life, I'm afraid he would have been decapitated by now. "Oh, there is still this matter?" "Yang Tinghe had heard about this fraud case in the examination room before, but he didn't expect that the protagonist of the fraud case was actually He Jia'an. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If He Jia'an really

After being beheaded with a knife, I am afraid that the whole Ming Dynasty may not be able to find a second person who can understand the language of the Franji. "It's nothing for me. At worst, I will continue to take the imperial examination next year. It's a pity for the person who took the exam for him. He has a talent but can't get a chance to display it." He Jiaan couldn't help complaining for Lu Jinsheng. also know even

With Yang Tinghe's current status, he couldn't change Lu Jinsheng's fate, but he still complained a few words.

Regarding this, Yang Tinghe could only smile. Fraud in the imperial examination is a major issue. Let alone this matter has nothing to do with him, even if it has something to do with him, he must first clear it up. You must know how many high-ranking officials have been injured by cheating in the imperial examination throughout the ages.

However, He Jiaan can still think of speaking for the person taking the exam under such circumstances, so he can be regarded as a loyal person.

As soon as the conversation changed, Yang Tinghe asked again: "I don't know if Jia'an ever got married?"

"I've been married for more than two years, and my family has a wife and a concubine."

"En." Yang Tinghe nodded.The foreshadowing was finished, and when it came time to get down to business, the smile on Yang Qianhe's face gradually faded. Through the temptation just now, I thought that He Jia'an was also a straightforward person, and he probably didn't need to be like other people. come around

Going around, he asked bluntly: "Jia'an must be very proud of getting a sixth-rank master at a young age, right?"

proud?To say that there were some pride at the beginning, but after thinking about it carefully, He Jiaan felt deeply that he had a great responsibility, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Master Yang, I would rather hand over the position of the sixth-rank master now." , then

Afterwards, he obediently returned to Qingjiangpu, and was with his family. He usually played the piano and painted very happily. Unlike now, he was afraid of disappointing His Majesty's wishes, but he was always in a state of fear. "Hey, after hearing He Jiaan's words, now it's Yang Tinghe's turn to start worrying. He thought that He Jiaan's sudden promotion to such a high official position would make him feel at ease, but after hearing what he said, he clearly didn't let the sixth-rank chief matter go. In my eyes, it is

I began to miss the peaceful and peaceful life in Qingjiangpu.

It is impossible for him to have such an idea. His Majesty is still waiting for him to use his knowledge to make Daming's military equipment stronger.

"It's not bad that Jia'an has such an idea." Yang Tinghe didn't deny He Jia'an's words at the beginning, but said in a persuasive tone: "You can also think about it for your family, your majesty, and this country. .”

what?

Isn't it just that he doesn't want to be an official? Why does it sound like he is sorry for the whole world? He Jiaan blinked and listened to Yang Tinghe continue talking.

"The family has provided you with books for so many years, isn't it because they want you to have a bright future? Now that the position of the head of the sixth rank has been obtained, as long as you don't make any big mistakes, your starting point is already higher than others A lot came out."

This is indeed true, after all, those newly appointed Jinshi were only county magistrates who were no more than seventh-rank when they were appointed officials, and it was considered a blessing from the Holy One to be able to get the position of sixth-rank chief in one fell swoop.Yang Tinghe paused, then continued: "Your Majesty's love for you, I believe Jia'an can also see it, His Majesty entrusts you with such an important task, it is trust in you, if you really resign Don't do it, it should make His Majesty

What disappointment? "This..." He Jiaan was really speechless this time. After all, Zhengde had a lot of trust in him. Anatomy of a Langji Man

He never had any doubts. He could trust his emperor so completely. I'm afraid it would be difficult to find another one in this world. "The third one is Frangji." This is what Yang Tinghe is most worried about. If someone told him before that the Daming Navy could not defeat Frangji, he would not believe it, but now after He Jiaan's explanation After seeing Ronaldo's performance in the Golden Palace again, he was already faintly worried. What He Jiaan said was probably correct, and after Ronaldo went back, maybe the warships of the Franji people would threaten the territory of Ming Dynasty. This battle still has to

Prepare early.After listening to Yang Tinghe's words, He Jia'an knew in his heart that he might really have no way out this time, no matter whether it was dealing with things, people or the country, he had to do his errands well, and at least he couldn't let Franji over one's own head

Blessing is.Thinking of this, He Jiaan suddenly stood up, and said sonorously and forcefully: "Master Yang, don't worry, for the sake of the country and society of Ming Dynasty, the subordinate officials will definitely devote themselves to death."

Chapter 716 Fighting for Power

Early in the morning, Yang Wenzhong, the eunuch in charge of the Bingzhan Bureau, had already got up from the bed and sat under the big tree in the yard, feeling the chill brought by the late autumn, but what made him feel colder than this chill was The news that came out a few days ago.

His Majesty personally appointed a chief to the Military Bureau.

A principal is just a mere sixth-rank official, but the meaning behind this appointment is extremely worth pondering. Could it be that His Majesty is dissatisfied with himself for personally appointing a chief?

Or did he already have doubts about himself?No matter which of these two endings is, I am afraid that it is not good news for him. Yang Wenzhong raised his eyes slowly and looked at the gradually brightening sky. got up early in the morning

Come, look up at the sky while grazing the cow, then the cow was lost, the family had no choice, so they sent themselves to the palace.Almost 30 years have passed in this flash, and I have slowly survived from being a loyal son to Eunuch Yang, but if this man surnamed He is really sent by His Majesty to monitor him as I imagined, then my good life may not be the same. never come back

Pay it back.

Just as Yang Wenzhong was looking at the sky and thinking wildly, suddenly there were a few knocks on the courtyard door, which should be the delivery of breakfast, Yang Wenzhong lazily said: "Come in, the door is unlocked." Squeak With a sound, the courtyard door was pushed open, and sure enough, a figure bent down and walked to Yang Wenzhong with a food box. Just as he was about to open the food box and take out the contents, Yang Wenzhong said weakly: : "Forget it, take it back

Go, miscellaneous family have no appetite today. "
