Inside the small tent, so many people crowded in, it became more and more crowded. Princess Changle and Jia Jiu had no choice, so they simply took off the curtain of the tent and put the tea stove in the middle, on which was a casserole that was not big or small, and the depth was just right, and six high tables were used on the side, and on the high table were put each person's dishes and tableware, including the colander and long chopsticks necessary for eating hot pot, and behind each person, there was a small table, on which were all kinds of ingredients, and there were little eunuchs who paid attention to the need at any time.

Of course, only the Emperor Taishang, the Emperor, the National Teacher and the three princesses are qualified to sit down, and even the King of Dongping County, King Jing Beibo and Nan Anbo of Xining County, can only sit at the small table on the side and use the previous hot pot.

As for Jia Jiu, he can only serve underground.

His status is too low, and he is a woman, with his identity, it is already good to be able to get such a job in front of the Emperor Taishang and the emperor. You must know that the kings of Dongping County are not qualified yet.

As for Jia Jiu's own wishes, they had long been ignored by the two kings above. On the contrary, it was the national teacher, who stayed on Jia Jiu's body when others had not paid attention.

Since Jia Jiu became an adult, no, a little earlier, since Jia Jiu participated in the palace concubine election, Jia Jiu began to distance himself from Daomen little by little. Although this is due to the reserve of women and the consideration of the difference between men and women, it is almost impossible for the Daomen to let go of the only candidate of the Golden Daozi who is currently the only one who has the possibility of passing the assessment of the Golden Daozi lineage.

It's just that Jia's mother was sick again, and now Jia Jiu has a rare trip. Of course, Daomen has to come and arrest people.

After the national teacher sat down, his eyes kept looking at Jia Jiu from time to time, although the national teacher was quite secretive. In addition, where is the bearing of the national teacher, it does not make others feel that there is anything wrong, but feels that it is natural for the national teacher to pay attention to Jia Jiu. Only Princess Changle was a little uneasy about the behavior of the national teacher for no reason.

Princess Changle said: "The palace has found that in recent years, as long as the nine girls leave the house, they appear outside. The national teacher will be there soon. The implication is that the national teacher's various encirclements and interceptions are too frequent.

The national teacher smiled slightly and put down the wine cup in his hand. "What the princess said is very true. And so it is. Poor Dao was instructed to keep an eye on the situation of Tongyunliu at all times. ”

Princess Changle never expected that the national teacher would admit it.

Princess Changle said: "Is the national teacher so idle? ”

The national teacher said: "It's not leisure, it's really a cloud flow that is of great significance to the Daomen." There is no room for error. ”

Princess Changle said, "But." You're a national teacher. Could it be that even you are not as important as Jiu Yatou? ”

"Yes." The national teacher admitted very simply, "The poor Dao is a silver-clothed Taoist, and in terms of status, it is on a par with the gold-clothed Daozi." However, now there are no less than five silver-clothed daozi on Yuqing Mountain, and there are more silver-clothed daozi candidates under it. And right now, the only golden-clothed Daoist in the Daomen is not there. Similarly, there is only one candidate for the Golden Cloth Daozi now. Moreover, Dao Kui believes that Tong Yunliu is very likely to pass the assessment in the near future and become the next gold-clothed Daozi. ”

When Princess Changle heard this, she also put down the things in her hand, put away the smile on her face, and said, "Once you pass the assessment, Jiu Yatou will choose a Taoist couple, isn't it?" ”

The national teacher said: "Her Royal Highness the princess is not necessarily a Taoist couple, but a fellow practitioner. ”

"Initiates?" Princess Changle was first surprised, then overjoyed, and couldn't help but ask.

The national teacher replied, "Yes." The Dao Zhen One Vein Supreme Sword Dictionary requires a gold-clothed Daozi and a silver-clothed Daozi to practice together. The Dao Sect did not clearly stipulate that the gold-clothed Daozi and the silver-clothed Daozi who practiced the highest sword code must become Dao companions. ”

Princess Changle said: "But the nine girls are women, and the silver-clothed Daozi of the Daomen, I heard that they are all men?" ”

"Yes."

Princess Changle said: "Do you need to say more?" ”

The eldest princess of Lanling said: "Doesn't this mean that if Jia Junjun passes the assessment, he can choose the national teacher as a fellow practitioner?" ”

The national teacher nodded calmly and said, "Yes." As long as Tong Yunliu had this intention, he could choose one of the silver-clothed Daoists on Yuqing Mountain as a fellow practitioner. Not only the poor Dao, but also the brothers of the poor Dao, including Dao Kui, are all candidates. ”

The eyes of the eldest princess of Jiashan were a little happy, and then they dimmed again.

Regarding her marriage to Yan Wei as her wife, Princess Jiashan has long lost her expectations. He knew very well that he did not meet the Yan family's requirements for his daughter-in-law. If it was a woman from another family, if that person was good enough, maybe the eldest princess of Jiashan would only bless, instead of rejecting Jia Jiu like she did.

The eldest princess of Jiashan can accept Yan Wei to marry another lady as his wife, but he will definitely not accept Jia Jiu. Because the Jia family is a nouveau riche family, because the Jia family is too unruly, because the reputation of the Jia family is too bad...... There are too many reasons why Princess Jiashan's self-esteem does not allow her to accept the reality that she is inferior to Jia Jiu.

And the reality is that in addition to that martial arts, Jia Jiu is really inferior to the eldest princess of Jiashan. From appearance to family background to upbringing, even if Jia Jiu was raised by Daokui, but on his body, the traces of the Jia family are too deep, and in many ways, he is indeed inferior to the eldest princess of Jiashan.

But as a woman who is deeply trapped in the love field, Princess Jiashan hopes that her sweetheart can get the best.

The eldest princess of Jiashan knew that Yan Wei had been in the alternate position of the silver-clothed Daozi for a long time, and Yan Wei had not opened her mouth, but the eldest princess of Jiashan hoped that Yan Wei could go to the next level. But if Yan Wei becomes a silver-clothed Taoist, then he will also face the dilemma of not moving forward because of the lack of fellow practitioners.

Therefore, the eldest princess of Jiashan was very embarrassed.

Emotionally, he couldn't accept Yan Wei to become Jia Jiu's Taoist partner, but intellectually, but he knew very well that Jia Jiu's choice of Yan Wei was the best choice for Yan Wei.

The eldest princess of Jiashan hesitated.

But the emperor, after hearing this, kept his eyes on the faces of the two daughters for a while.

The Emperor Taishang knew very well the thoughts of his two daughters. He knew that the eldest princess of Jiashan loved Yan Wei and wanted to dedicate all the best things in the world to Yan Wei. I also know that the eldest princess of Lanling loves her sister and wants to fulfill her sister. In this regard, the Emperor Taishang could only shrug his shoulders. Let things run their course.

Emperor Taishang didn't think that he had the ability to influence the decision of the Yan family's son, not to mention, this Yan family's son was also one of the young talents of the Daomen.

The Emperor said: "Speaking of which, I am very curious, today, why are you so thoughtful. Hiding here to eat? And, you also eat such an ordinary thing? ”

There are so many good things in the palace. Taking the world and supporting one person is the state of life in the palace. When the imperial power declined, the emperor was controlled by the people below, but if the emperor was in power. And who dares to fool the emperor?

It's like the Emperor. Even after the abdication, his power is still undiminished, and the good things in the imperial dining room are also given priority to the emperor. Therefore, for the Emperor Taishang, this kind of thing is just an occasional thing to have fun, and it is not as attractive as the real reason why the eldest princess of Lanling, the eldest princess of Jiashan and the eldest princess of Changle Jia Jiu have a private dinner.

Princess Changle heard. Hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor's grandfather's words, back then." When the mothers and concubines were building the provincial villas, their granddaughters were working with Jiuya on fertilizer, and now seven or eight years have passed, which can be regarded as a small achievement. Not only the granddaughter's Zhuangzi, but even the two aunts' Zhuangzi are also used, and the effect is not bad. ”

The Emperor Taishang was first overjoyed, and then shocked: "That thing has really become?" ”

The importance of food, as a king, how can the emperor not know? Even the national teacher pricked up his ears.

Princess Changle said: "It's indeed done." The granddaughter and the two aunts were so happy, but the girl said that although the things are good, they don't know if there are any side effects, so they can't be promoted. Before the emperor's grandfather came, we were still messing around. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but complain: "I always thought that it was such a troublesome thing, and I didn't know if it would produce results, but it would be so troublesome after it came out, even if there was such a thing as an instruction manual, I still didn't know how to use it correctly without special study." ”

Emperor Taishang couldn't help but stop his gaze on Jia Jiu's body and said, "Jia Junjun, what do you think?" ”

Jia Jiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this fertilizer is refined from sea salt through countless processes. In addition, the courtiers don't know what the mudflats by the sea look like, but the courtiers have heard of them. Therefore, this chemical fertilizer can not be used too much, and the land that uses chemical fertilizer all year round is easy to cause compaction, and must be neutralized with lime and other substances. These, the courtiers are just getting an approximation. In the end, the courtiers are just the daughters of a high-ranking family. Therefore, the courtiers insisted that the implementation of chemical fertilizers must be cautious. ”

Emperor Taishang smiled: "Yes, when it comes to the people's livelihood, we should act cautiously." However, since you have done such a meritorious service, I cannot treat you badly. ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Your Majesty, in this matter, the courtiers are just starting a start, but they are not the courtiers who really pay for it." ”

"Oh? Who's that? ”

"It's the cousin's family."

The Emperor finally couldn't stop being surprised: "What you said, but Lin Ruhai's children?" ”

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." The Lin family has paid a lot for Haiyan, but the courtiers have embezzled a lot of resources in the past, and the Lin family spends no less than three or four hundred thousand taels of silver on these things every year. ”

"Lin Ruhai, ......"

Lin Ruhai is the person who was summoned by the Emperor Taishang, and he is also one of the few people who can gain the trust of the Emperor Taishang and the Emperor at the same time, otherwise, Lin Ruhai would not have stayed in Yanzheng for several years. Moreover, Lin Ruhai is not like the Zhen family and the Jia family, who fill their pockets in the fat shortage, and regard the silver in salt administration and weaving as their own silver. On the contrary, Lin Ruhai was conscientious, and when he was in the salt administration, the annual salt tax in Jiangnan was more than one million taels of silver more than his predecessors.

Both the Emperor and the Emperor were very satisfied with Lin Ruhai, which also caused Lin Ruhai to be unable to leave that position, and in the end, he ran out of qi and blood and died of exhaustion in that position.

The Emperor misses Lin Ruhai, why doesn't the emperor miss Lin Ruhai? When Lin Ruhai was there, the emperor's hands were also much looser. Later, Lin Ruhai died, and the emperor's hands suddenly tightened. If it weren't for the fact that Princess Changle beat Jia Jiu and got those Zhuangzi in her hands later, the emperor would still be worried about his own pocket.

The emperor said: "Since you and the Lin family got this fertilizer thing together, naturally they will not be forgotten." ”

Princess Changle immediately hugged her father's arm: "Father, what about the daughter and the two aunts?" We've done a lot of work too. ”

The emperor couldn't help but scratch his daughter's nose and said, "Isn't your father treating you badly?" You're even fighting for this? ”

The Emperor said: "That's nature, and merit will be rewarded." Since Lanling, Jiashan and Changle have contributed, they should naturally be rewarded. ”

As soon as the Emperor Taishang opened his mouth, it was a series of rewards.

Originally, the eldest princess of Lanling was the princess of the Emperor Taishang, and her status and treatment were already top-notch, so the Emperor Taishang only rewarded two additional Zhuangzi, clothes and jewelry. The same is true for the eldest princess of Jiashan and the eldest princess of Changle, but there are some differences in the size and specifications of the imperial village, and there are slight differences in the styles of jewelry.

They are royal princesses, and their titles and positions have long been there, even if they can be rewarded, they are just these things.

It was Jia Jiu who climbed from the county monarch to the position of the county lord in one fell swoop. Emperor Taishang originally wanted to canonize Jia Jiu as a first-class county lord, but Jia Jiu didn't dare to ask for it, and in the end he only wanted the position of second-class county lord. It's still a double eater, and it's still rewarded to the emperor.

On the contrary, it was the Lin family who received a more generous reward.

Lin Daiyu, as Lin Ruhai's original daughter-in-law, became a first-class county monarch, Lin Ruhai's sister-in-law Lin Ren became a first-class earl, Lin Ren's younger brother Lin Zhen is a first-class viscount, and as the eldest son of Lin Yu, after staying in Hanlin Academy for these days, he was transferred to the household department and was responsible for the promotion of chemical fertilizers.

Because there was no vacancy in the household department, and because of the importance of chemical fertilizers, the emperor and the emperor unanimously agreed to set up a new department to manage chemical fertilizers. And Lin Yu is the head of this department. As for the production of chemical fertilizers, it was in the hands of the royal family, the three princesses, the Daomen and the Lin family, of which the Lin family was obviously the least important.

In this regard, Jia Jiu insisted very much: "Your Majesty, I don't know what are the bad effects of chemical fertilizers. The courtiers hope that His Majesty will be cautious. There are many types of chemical fertilizers, and different types are used in different ways. Nowadays, I haven't found the most suitable way to use it......"

Emperor Taishang said: "Jia Junjun, shouldn't you be called Jia County Lord now." The county lord of Jia is still so careful when he mentions the people's livelihood. Rest assured, I will pay attention to this matter. It is not an easy thing to implement this thing. (To be continued......)
