God-level Governor of the Tang Dynasty

What the hell!

As soon as this remark came out, Cheng Yaojin's face instantly pulled down, the frivolity on his face disappeared, and he became serious.

"Fang Xuanling, you old boy, don't bully me, or be careful that I will beat your son!"

puff!

Wen Yanbo on the side almost laughed out loud, the housekeeper had some tricks, and he immediately restrained this stinky shameless Cheng Yaojin, and this guy even wanted to beat the housekeeper's son.

Cheng Yaojin took a look at Wen Yanbo, grinned immediately, and said quietly: "Old Wen, do you have a problem with me, are you smiling so sinisterly?"

"Hmph, I don't know what you're talking about." Wen Yanbo said coldly.

"really?"

Wen Yanbo was serious, and said in a deep voice: "Of course, this is the court. If you continue to mess around, be careful, I will impeach you."

"Cut, old bastard."

Cheng Yaojin pinched his nostrils, but he didn't speak. Although he looked carefree, he was not stupid.

Nothing should be excessive.

At this time, Li Shimin spoke, very excited.

"Dear dears, I have received news from Duke Wu earlier that Wang Xiu's granary plan has succeeded!"

As soon as this remark came out, the court was immediately silent, and then it broke out completely, and everyone couldn't help but get excited.

They knew exactly what Wang Xiu's granary plan was, and that was high-yielding rice.

Now that the plan is successful, could it be that the high-yield rice in Jiaozhou really has a big harvest?This is really good news, no wonder the emperor is so happy.

Now there are several troubles in the Tang Dynasty, one is Nanzhao, the other is Tuyuhun, and the other is the drought and food shortage in the north.

Jiaozhou's bumper harvest is definitely good news.

Tang Jian couldn't help but stood up and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, has this news been confirmed?"

This news is good news. He regards Wang Xiu as his nephew. If this news is true, then Wang Xiu has made a great contribution.

This kid is going to be promoted again.

"Hahaha, this news is true. Jingde personally wrote to tell me, and also said that there is a big surprise. This old boy has learned badly." Li Shimin was in a happy mood, and couldn't help joking. .

Since he received Wang Xiu's gift last time, he now likes surprises very much. He didn't expect that the old man Yuchi Jingde would learn it.

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. They all congratulated and congratulated: "Congratulations to the emperor. There is a bumper harvest in Jiaozhou. From then on, the food shortage in the north has been completely resolved."

This is definitely good news.

Li Shimin nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Wu Guogong is coming back today, and we will know the specific news at that time. To be honest, I am also very curious now, what is the origin of this high-yield rice."

Almost ten times the output, this is simply a miracle.

At this time, Li Junxian who was outside suddenly came in, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Duke Wu has already arrived at Zhuque Gate!"

"Hurry up!"

Li Shimin was very excited, it means that Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here soon.

Soon Yuchi Jingde arrived at the main hall, behind him was his son Yuchi Baoqi.

When the two entered the hall, there was a sudden silence.

Everyone stared at the father and son dumbfounded, what the hell are these two doing, and how did they become like this.

It's okay for Yuchi Jingde to look pale, he felt that Yuchi Baoqi was seriously injured and attacked by something.

Mumble!

All the officials changed color at the same time, this Jiaozhou is too cruel, the last time Cheng Yaojin and Li Xiaogong made it like that, almost died there.

This time Yuchi Jingde has only been there for a few days, and he has become such a virtuous deed, which is too exaggerated.

Ma Dan, you must not go to Jiaozhou.

"Jingde, how did you become like this?" Li Shimin couldn't help trembling.

Could it be that the two father and son were robbed halfway?

"Bastard, did you encounter some bandits, that's why you became like this?"

He couldn't help becoming angry. Someone in Tang Dynasty dared to rob the Duke of the Kingdom. He simply didn't know how to live or die. He must investigate thoroughly.

Yuchi Jingde was taken aback, and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty understands, I just got a bit of miasma while harvesting rice in Jiaozhou, it's nothing serious."

"Harvesting rice?"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then came over, couldn't help but frowned and said: "Aiqing, you are the Duke of the state, why don't you go harvest the rice yourself, just let the guards below go."

"The emperor entrusted me with an errand, I naturally have to do it well, and the guards may lie, so naturally I have to go in person to rest assured." Yuchi Jingde waved his hand and said with a look of indifference.

While waving his hands, the wounds on his hands were naturally exposed, and there were actually several cuts.

This moved Li Shimin so much that he stepped down from the dragon chair himself, held Yuchi Jingde's hand, and sighed: "Aiqing is really loyal, I am very moved."

Cheng Yaojin on the side almost threw up.

"Mom, come on, this Yuchi Heizi is so shameless, I'm afraid he cut this wound himself?" He couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

When you harvest rice, you harvest rice. How could you get four or five wounds? Are you cutting rice or your hands?

Even Zhongshuling Wen Yanbo, who was chatting with him just now, couldn't help but become suspicious. This Yuchi Jingde was a military commander after all, so his accuracy couldn't be so bad.

Yuchi Jingde naturally heard what the two said, couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and secretly said: "Fuck, these two souls can be recognized at a glance, is my acting so bad?"

But at this time, you can't be cowardly, let alone admit it, otherwise you will be deceiving the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I'm also used to holding the Modao, but now I'm really not used to holding a small scythe, and there were too many people who helped harvest at that time, even Liang Yucheng and Duan Xuan went, and it was only because of the crowding." Injury, my son also fell because of being squeezed." Yuchi Jingde explained.

Chapter 121 The person died, but he was also named a marquis

In this way, everyone reluctantly accepted it, but they still didn't believe it.

On the contrary, Li Shimin laughed and asked, "Duan Xuan and Liang Yucheng are the governors of Yongzhou and Guangzhou respectively. Why did they go to Jiaozhou? What's the situation?"

He doesn't like the relationship between the courtiers below is too good, let alone the kind that are connected together.

"Your Majesty, Duan Xuan and Liang Yucheng also bought high-yielding rice, so they naturally came to observe the rice production." Yuchi Jingde explained.

Having said this, Li Shimin immediately became excited, and exclaimed: "What a Duan Xuan, what a Liang Yucheng, it seems that there is still no lack of insight among my courtiers!"

All of a sudden, there are two more governor's mansions planting rice, and now Datang will not be short of food.

These two governors are not bad, it seems that they must be rewarded.

Duan Zhixuan and Li Xiaogong in the crowd couldn't help but their eyes lit up, this was their own meritorious service, and a few rainbow farts were immediately thrown up.

"It's all because the emperor is wise and martial, so the courtiers below are so hardworking."

"However, with the increased grain production in Yongzhou and Guangzhou, the entire Tang Dynasty will not be short of grain, which is really a great thing."

"Yeah, if it's really ten times the output, it's really auspicious."

Li Shimin was immediately elated, and immediately rewarded the two smart governors, and Yuchi Baoqi also got a lot of benefits.

Seeing Li Shimin happy, Yuchi Jingde was secretly proud of himself, he still had a trump card to use.

In fact, Li Shimin was also waiting for Yuchi Jingde's big gift, but this guy kept pretending to be aggressive, always pretending to be pitiful, and didn't speak out for a long time, which made him very depressed.

I'm an emperor, so I can't just ask my subordinates for gifts, that's nothing.

Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin spoke at this time, and he was a little annoyed: "Yuchi Heizi, what are you talking so much about, what big gift did you bring, let's see it, we are all waiting impatiently."

This soul is weak, and a gift has been mooted for a long time, and she is simply like a big girl.

As soon as this remark came out, it won the hearts of everyone, and they were also very curious about this big gift.

Yuchi Jingde's old face darkened, he glared at Cheng Yaojin, and said with a dry smile: "Your Majesty, in fact, this time the gift is also a gift from my minister, and it was actually given by Wang Xiu."

"Wang Xiu?" Li Shimin suddenly became interested.

Last time Wang Xiu sent a thousand-year-old ginseng. After eating it, the queen's health was much better. Could it be that this time it was some good thing?

Yuchi Jingde nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Wang Xiu gave the Emperor one hundred thousand shi of rice this time. This is a personal gift from him, not a grain tax."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone couldn't help but be dumbfounded, this Wang Xiu must have done too much, this is really too loyal.

"One hundred thousand stones?" Li Shimin couldn't help but tremble in his heart. What should Wang Xiu really tell me? This is really timely.

Yuchi Jingde nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Xiu specially organized people to snatch it up for the emperor's emergency. This kid is not bad, he..."

He told what Wang Xiu said to Li Shimin, and the latter couldn't help crying.

Li Shimin felt warm in his heart, but he couldn't speak for a while, and after a long time, he said with emotion: "It's good to be a man, you can't lose your conscience, Wang Xiu's words really moved me, this is what a loyal minister said in his heart! "

He knew in his heart that Wang Xiu didn't need to send so much grain at all. According to Datang's taxation, grain was only a tax of forty to one, which meant that for every forty stones harvested, he had to pay a tax of one stone.

However, Wang Xiu is the governor of the local area. In fact, because of local problems in Jiaozhou, Li Shimin acquiesced to Wang Xiu's refusal to pay taxes.

But now that Wang Xiu actually sent so much food, how can he not be moved by this, he just can't wait to summon Wang Xiu to Chang'an immediately.

In the court hall, everyone watched Li Shimin cry because of being moved, and all of them suddenly had complicated expressions.

When did the emperor shed tears for others, this Wang Xiu is probably the only one, it is really a great favor.

At this time, Changsun Wuji stood up, and under the bewildered gaze of the crowd, he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, Wang Xiu is so loyal, if he doesn't reward him, he might not be able to convince the crowd."

What the hell!

Everyone couldn't help being dumbfounded, what the hell is this, Changsun Wuji actually spoke to Wang Xiu, and even took the initiative to ask for credit for Wang Xiu, which is interesting.

You must know that Wang Xiu didn't give Changsun Wuji face, and killed Changsun Wuji's family, which is estimated to have been tricked to death by Changsun Wuji.

Not only was Wang Xiu not killed, but now Changsun Wuji is asking for credit for him.

What does this mean? It means that the eldest grandson's family wants to recruit Wang Xiu.

They naturally came into contact with the recent rumors, that is, the queen intended to marry a princess to Wang Xiu, and couldn't help but feel trembling, this Wang Xiu wanted to go to heaven.

Some courtiers are people who have studied carefully, and they immediately felt the direction of the wind.

"Your Majesty, the Chief Governor Wang Xiu is loyal to the country, and such loyal ministers must be rewarded, otherwise how can we be convinced."

"Such a loyal minister is a manifestation of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. This is a sign of the arrival of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, Your Majesty."

"The Southwest is a poor place. Wang Xiu succeeded in breaking the situation. He should be rewarded heavily."

Hearing these people's words, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling secretly refreshed.

What a performance of a prosperous age, a harbinger of a prosperous age!

What does it mean to have a level of speech? That's it. After seeing that the person who spoke was Yu Shinan, I couldn't help being Longyan Dayue, this kid can speak.

Wei Zheng on the side rolled his eyes, this sycophant is really a fart and a fart.

Li Shimin didn't care about these things, the edict he gave to Wang Xiu was prepared in advance, but now he felt that it was not enough.

"Wen Yanbo draws up a decree!"

"Wang Xiu of the Governor's Mansion in the south of the town is dedicated to serving the country, and he is a minister of the country. He is specially conferred the title of Marquis of Loyalty, the position of hereditary Marquis, and he is bestowed with jade..."

"In addition, Wang Yuan, the former governor of Jiaozhou, was granted the title of Marquis of Yongyi, and his mother was the wife of the third rank, enjoying the blessing of the Tang Dynasty."

"Kin this!"

After hearing the imperial decree, everyone was dumbfounded. Wang Xiu became a loyal Marquis, or even a hereditary Marquis.

Now the emperor even made his dead father Wang Yuan a marquis, which is a bit too exaggerated.

And Wang Xiu's dead mother was actually conferred the posthumous title of Madam, what kind of holy family this is, it is simply against the sky.

What achievements do these old couples have? Wang Yuan made Jiaozhou a mess, so it would be good if they were not punished.

Li Shimin glanced at them, and said in a deep voice: "They raised and educated a loyal minister like Wang Xiu, which is a great achievement, enough to be posthumously named Mrs. Marquis!"

Chapter 122

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers felt panicked and uncomfortable.

In the emperor's heart, Wang Xiu actually has such a status, people like himself must reflect on it.

Hou Junji stood up and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I think this is unreasonable!"
