Thousands of Miles of the Same Wind + Fanwai

She spoke slowly and extremely softly, which half of Zhong Liran's anger dissipated.Zhong Liran took back the memorial, angrily criticized the word "pig's head", and said to Gu Siyuan: "I also know that in the past two years, in order to promote the cultivation of corn in China, Liang Xia and others were greatly rewarded, which attracted a lot of attention. Others followed suit."

When Zhong Liran was 13 years old, she formally took charge of the government, and the auxiliary ministers abdicated one by one, so she took advantage of the opportunity to raise Liang Xia, and threw some talented Jinshi in the past few years to Yanzhou, Lanzhou and other places to open up wasteland. .

Those recent Scholars have changed the appearance of the barren land in Yanzhou in just three years, gradually getting rid of poverty, and Zhong Liran just gave him a compliment.Because of this, there is no one in the country who does not know that Zhong Liran is extremely rare for this corn.Some curious people gradually planted them at home.So far, Baogu is not a rare thing in Chu State.

The planting of Baogu relieved the food pressure in Yanzhou and other places, which was a good thing for the court.But once the court officials have bad intentions and regard it as an act of inviting credit, it will be at a great disadvantage.

The reasons why Zhong Liran was angry were firstly because the prefect of Lianghe wasted his livelihood by planting corn to claim credit; secondly, he was so stupid that he couldn't see his intentions and played himself like a monkey; thirdly, it was unbelievable that a prefect was so stupid.

After thinking about this, Zhong Liran said angrily: "I have to find a way to deal with these people."

Such a rash move, what else is it if it is not playing the emperor with a monkey!

Gu Siyuan understood why she was angry best, and a plan came to his mind, and he said to Zhong Liran: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, since the prefect of Lianghe County sent ten carts of Baogu to Beijing, your Majesty will set up a stall in front of Zhaohui Hall tomorrow." Cook the corn and feed it to the ministers who have not eaten."

Zhong Liran glanced at her and said, "Are you serious?"

Gu Siyuan nodded and said with a smile, "Really." After she finished speaking, she blinked again, and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty will curse people after they finish eating."

The ministers are full and have strength, and they can stand from morning to noon, which is enough for the little emperor to scold for a while.Zhong Liran made up his mind, then frowned and said, "Then I must scold you well tomorrow!"

The author has something to say: I will join V tomorrow, see you at eight o'clock in the evening!Three more!

I hope you will collect more, I am under a lot of pressure!

Chapter 22 IV.5

In the early morning of the next day, the ministers walked through the palace corridor one after another at dawn, and stepped into the wide square in front of the court hall.The strong fragrance of corn spreads in the square with the cool summer, which lures the courtiers to stop.

The waiters set up a row of small stalls in front of the temple gate of the square, and presented cooked corn sticks to the passing ministers with a smile on their faces.The ministers didn't pay attention to any specific manners. They walked and ate the corn cobs rewarded by His Majesty. When they reached the steps of Zhaohui Hall, they threw the eaten corn into the basket beside them.Then he went up the stairs, took off his boots in front of the hall gate, entered the hall and was sitting in his own seat.

Emperor Ming was lenient. During her administration, the ministers did not have to hold the standing salute. Instead, they asked the servants to prepare futons and let the ministers sit on the highness.Zhong Liran was also an extremely generous emperor, and after he ascended the throne, he did not change the sitting ceremony during the Ming Dynasty's court meeting, so that His Highness's ministers who were much older than her could sit and report on court affairs.

When they arrived at Chenzheng, all the ministers sat neatly in His Highness, waiting for the emperor to go to court.

This is summer, the sun rises early, and the sun shoots straight into the Zhaohui Palace at the right time, so bright that people can't open their eyes.Zhong Liran ordered the servants to close the gate of the palace, so as not to expose the low-ranking officials near the gate, and then announced the morning court.

Although the emperor is not very old, he looks cold all the year round, but he is a very kind emperor in his bones.The ministers were grateful for her sympathy, so they didn't make any fuss in the courtroom today, they just obediently reported the affairs, mentioned a few important matters, and waited for the court to disperse.

After finally waiting for the ministers to finish their official business, Zhong Liran said calmly, "My love, is today's Baogu delicious?"

Upon hearing her words, many ministers in the palace thanked her one after another.Zhong Liran squinted his eyes slightly, held a memorial between his fingertips, and said with a half-smile, "Your loves can't thank me. If you want to thank me, you can thank the prefect of Lianghe County, Wanzhou."

"The prefect of Lianghe County gave me ten carts of corn as a condolence gift two days ago. He said that Lianghe County had a good harvest this year, so he gave me some corn to taste. He said that the rice grains of the corn are as crystal clear as jade." , the beautiful name is corn. Dear friends, what do you think of the word corn?"

Some courtiers obviously understood most of Lianghe County when they heard it, but some half understood and praised "very good, very good."

Zhong Liran squinted his eyes and said, "The name is extremely elegant, and it is also suitable for his land of fish and rice in Lianghe County, but it is not done well at all." The servant at the side said, "Prime Minister Du, if I remember correctly, the prefect of Lianghe County is supposed to be your student. Let's see how I should deal with this matter."

She said, and asked the servant to hand over the memorial to Prime Minister Du.The waiter hurried down the stairs, bowed and presented the memorial.Du Mingwei took down the memorial, opened it, and saw two big pig heads.She frowned, read all the memorials, and pondered for a while.

Zhong Liran sat at the top, saw her expression clearly, and said, "Have you finished reading the prime minister? After reading it, can you talk to the left and right, and show it to all the lovers."

Du Ming followed his words slightly and handed over the memorial to his left and right.Zhong Lihui lost the title of regent after Zhong Liran took office at the age of 13, and was then the general of the world's soldiers and horses and the minister of the Ministry of war.After receiving this memorial, when she saw the blood-red word "pig's head", she raised her eyebrows first, and said loudly, "Oh, what a pig's head."

Saying so, handing over the memorial to the left and right, so far, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became dignified.

The ministers who had already seen it gathered together, making a low voice and buzzing upwards.Zhong Liran saw that he had almost read it, so he sat on the dragon chair and said indifferently, "All the lovers have finished reading. After reading it, please tell me how I should deal with this eunuch."

All the ministers discussed, and suddenly one person said, "Return to Your Majesty, the prefect of Lianghe County just thinks that corn is rare, so changing the rice to corn is not a big deal, so I will punish him slightly."

Before the minister finished speaking, Zhong Liran raised his voice and said, "Punish me!"

The courtier immediately shut up, and another person said earnestly, "Your Majesty, the prefect of Lianghe County is just doing this to please His Majesty."

Zhong Liran was amazed that "pleased me"

Her continuous tone of voice made everyone in the hall a little confused.Everyone in the hall did not dare to speak anymore, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

Zhong Liran smiled, and said, "It turns out that such an important matter of people's livelihood, among all the lovers, is regarded as a matter of punishment if it fails to please me."

Her words were extremely sarcasm, and Du Mingwei, who was sitting in the front row of His Highness, hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, I am terrified. This prefect of Lianghe County is pursuing his own interests and disregarding the important matters of the people's livelihood. Please punish him severely by His Majesty."

"Heavy punishment, how can I punish you so much?" Zhong Liran said, turning his eyes to Zhong Lihui who was in the line of ministers, and raised his voice, "Aunt Huang, what do you think of this matter?"

After Zhong Li returned to the government, the relationship with Zhong Liran eased a lot.Hearing her question, she cooperated and said "cut it"

She said those two words very loudly, which frightened everyone in the court.Someone spoke up and argued with the prefect of Lianghe County, "Even though the prefect of Lianghe County acted a little biased, it would be too cruel and inhuman for the prince to kill if he said so."

Zhong Lihui sneered and said, "It's a bit biased. This Lianghe County was originally a land of fish and rice, and my Wanzhou mainly grows rice. The annual output is quite good, but now the corn is changed, resulting in a lower output. The people below don't know how much they have lost."

"Second, this prefect distorted His Majesty's intentions, disregarded the people's livelihood, ruined the common people, and damaged the prestige and majesty of our imperial court. Do you actually say that such a major event is a little biased?"

"Third, no one in the world knows that His Majesty is vigorously promoting the planting of corn. But the planting of corn is for barren lands such as Yanzhou and Lanzhou. Lianghe County is a rice paddy town. Why come to a rich place to join in the fun."

"Such a prefect who disregards people's livelihood and deceives his superiors and subordinates, what will he do if he doesn't kill him?"

As soon as Zhong Li said this, everyone in the court started discussing it.You come and go, each person arguing with each other.

Zhong Liran sat at the head, took the paperweight with a cold face, and slapped it hard

There was a snap, and there was silence in the hall.Zhong Liran had a straight face, and said calmly, "You still think that I am young and can be bullied, right? The prefect of Lianghe County did this because he thinks that I am a young and bully child, and he will be promoted if he is coaxed casually." Jazz"

"Do you really think that I don't know that I own the world and need someone to please him? He's a pig, he doesn't care about the world's people's livelihood, he bullies people too much, and now you still have to speak for that pig, I'm so angry!"

"One stick of corn bought you all, what kind of pig's head is stuffed in your head?"
