The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Liu Jin had a bad feeling.

When he returned to Beijing this time, he planned to stay in the Department of Ceremonies and work as a Dagong.

Yan Chengjin handed the three-foot-long rice paper to He Neng, and He Neng handed it to Liu Jin.

"Take it with you. Do you know what is the biggest risk in this trip?"

Liu Jin looked stunned and a little dazed.

Looking at this huge rice paper, his face was a little complicated, and he could guess that Master Yan was going to send him to leave the capital.

But he is also a eunuch with a dream.

His dream is to be the chief eunuch in charge of rituals in the palace, not to leave the capital.

But Yan Chengjin asked the scholar about his dream, but never asked him what his dream was.

"Master Yan, I have something to say. I don't know whether I should say it or not?"

Hold the grass~

Yan Chengjin pondered for a moment, and then his eyes fell on Liu Jin. It would not work just to think about the horse grinding without giving the horse grass.

"You tell me."

Liu Jin's eyes lit up and she quickly said: "I am also a person with dreams. My dream is..."

"Being the chief eunuch of the ceremonial department?"

"yes!"

Liu Jin was overjoyed. Lord Yan and the new emperor were on the same page. If he agreed, he would have stepped onto that position.

He raised his head slightly and looked at Yan Chengjin eagerly.

"I will give you a nice word, but first let the new emperor give you Da Dang, the Superintendent of Ceremonies."

Liu Jin's eyes were filled with brilliance, which was the excitement of taking the first step in her dream.

Then he reacted and immediately bowed to Yan Chengjin.

"I thank you, Master Yan."

…

Forbidden City,

Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed to see Liu Jin come back. Liu Jin gave him a good word, saying that Yan Chengjin had praised him and asked him to be the Supervisor of Ceremonies.

"Ah, did Lao Gao really say that?"

"Yes, Master, I will always remember this in my heart."

I don’t know how long it will take for Master Yan to give me a kind word.

He could feel at ease only when Da Gang, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, got it. Gu Dayong, who was standing beside him, looked at Liu Jin with an ugly expression, but he didn't know what he had eaten, and he felt pain in his lower abdomen and tightness in his throat.

"Master, this slave needs to go to the toilet..."

Zhu Houzhao turned his head and saw that Gu Da's lips were black and his nose was bleeding. He looked like he had eaten something bad, so he waved his hand impatiently.

"Go ahead, go ahead."

"Thank you sir, I will come as soon as you go..."

Liu Jin was speechless. He knew exactly what happened. If Doctor Wang was not in the palace, he would have no choice but to be laid to rest.

Go to the Supervisor of Ceremonies to inform Xiao Jing and put him on the list of the Supervisor of Ceremonies.

"We thought you died outside."

Xiao Jing was quite impressed with this little eunuch, and he left the Forbidden City several times without being seen.

If he hadn't been a favored eunuch of the new emperor, he would have been banned from entering the palace long ago.

"Why are you the only one coming back, where is Yan Song?"

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi looked surprised, and then looked carefully at the young eunuch whom Yan Chengjin had strongly recommended to go to sea.

Ben and Yan Song went to Franji together to serve as envoys to various countries.

Looking at the past few years, he thought that Yan Song and this little eunuch had been buried in the belly of the fish.

But now, it's back again...

Yan Chengjin raised his eyes and had not taught Liu Jin how to deal with it.

But Liu Jin was the eunuch he had seen with the most clever ideas. In the past, he often gave Zhu Houzhao advice.

"Master Yan is still lobbying in Franji. He is afraid that the Emperor will be anxious waiting, so he specially ordered his servants to return to the capital first.

Afraid of wasting money, the servant walked back to the capital from Franji Country alone. "

That's more than ten thousand miles...

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi looked at Liu Jin in surprise, with a touch of emotion flashing deep in his eyes.

Perhaps it was because he had been favored by eunuchs since childhood.

Although the eunuch was physically disabled and was discriminated against by others, in his eyes, he was no different from ordinary people.

The eyes of all the princes were also full of splendor.

Although the specific details are not clear, from the pros and cons analysis, if you want to confirm, you need to send someone to Franji Country to investigate, so there is no need to worry.

"Tomorrow, I will prepare to pack up and set off."

"How can we prepare? Why don't we set out today. I have already drafted the candidates for the Military Book."

"..." Zhang Fuhua.

"Ahem, the new emperor is naughty. Don't take the Zhang Qing family to heart. We are in the court and are looking forward to your return." The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi said solemnly.

The Supreme Emperor still speaks nicely, but now that the new emperor has spoken, Zhang Fuhua can only leave today.

…

Dongnuan Pavilion,

Nowadays, the capital and the capital are gradually seeing some improvement.

It’s the end of November, and it’s quickly approaching the end of the year balance sheet.

On a whim, Zhu Houzhao called Wang Qiong to calculate the annual income, but after the calculation was completed, his face gradually became ugly.

Rice and wheat are 6.3 million shi, money and banknotes are 18 million shi, and silk is 290,000 pieces...

"But you are greedy for my achievements."

"Oh, it's true. If you don't believe it, the new emperor will figure it out for himself!"

Wang Qiong pulled up his sleeve, returned the beads on the abacus and handed them to Zhu Houzhao.

Even though he was usually courteous and magnanimous, he could not hold his face when he was accused by Zhu Houzhao of being greedy for money and food.

Yan Chengjin listened attentively.

Although sweet potatoes and corn were promoted, they were affected by many factors such as insect pests, barren land, natural disasters, and the lack of genetic improvement of the crops themselves.

Crop yields are not high.

A sweet potato is full of insect holes, making it taste bitter and difficult to swallow.

Fortunately, he had thought that sweet potatoes as big as three fingers could be grown anywhere like the capital city.

"Lao Gao, what should I do about Haikou that I praised so much?"

Yan Chengjin was a little troubled.

Pesticides have a certain effect on increasing production, but they also have other effects. In the previous life, green food was also promoted as non-toxic and pollution-free.

In case it becomes popular in Ming Dynasty.

One day, I will eat it myself.

Therefore, he does not want to promote pesticides.

As for chemical fertilizers, with the newly enlightened chemistry, the distance between Ming Dynasty and chemical fertilizers is as high as the Himalayas.

For now, only natural fertilizers can be used.

As a result, the only way left is to improve genes through hybridization. I wonder if there will be any surprises if different crop varieties are planted together?

"I don't know either."

Zhu Houzhao is a person who likes to talk nonsense.

In the blink of an eye, I will brag in front of everyone again, so I'd better try it on my own first.

…

Wenhua Hall, the morning light shines everywhere.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi picked up a porcelain bowl and presented a bowl of eight-treasure porridge, then ate it by himself.

"I heard that Hou Zhao secretly asked the Ministry of Household Affairs to calculate this year's annual income?"

Xiao Jing knew that the Supreme Emperor also wanted to know how much money his annual income would be this year.

But the new emperor didn't come to report, presumably because the accounts were not good-looking.

If it were normal, he would have come to show off his power long ago.

"This slave will go and invite Mr. Wang."

After a moment, Wang Qiong looked at the face of the Supreme Emperor Hongzhi quietly, her eyes unblinking, as if she wanted to see through his thoughts.

The princes also came together, and Hou Jingjing stood aside.

I saw the Supreme Emperor Hongzhi turning over the accounts silently.

"Yan Qing's family has seen it, too. What did he say?"

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi put the accounts together and put them on the imperial desk. At first, the two guys said they wanted to double their achievements.

But now, although the annual income has increased, it is still nearly half of the promised promise.

"I dare not say it." Wang Qiong shrank and lowered his head.

"explain."

"You can't be too greedy..."
