Hou Shigui's words made the eunuchs and maids in the palace call them masters.

Especially Wang Zhen and Zheng Yang, they were even more dumbfounded.

They never expected that Hou Gongzi would still have this hand, and in a few words, he said that the new farm tools that benefited all the people and the merit of this map were sent by God to inspire His Majesty.

And he, Hou Shigui, is just an errand runner.

He also praised His Majesty for his strong dragon energy, and even the immortals couldn't get close.

No, if you are free one day, you have to ask Hou Gongzi for advice!

As for Na Yang He, after listening to Hou Shigui's words, the expression on his face also eased a lot.

Hou Shigui secretly saw Yang He's expression, and secretly said that this emperor is really the same as Emperor Yang of Sui in history, so happy and eager for quick success.

Since you like merit so much, then I will give you merit.

Without waiting for Yang He to speak, Hou Shigui continued to hit the railway while it was hot:

"And the matter of the immortal seed that yields four hundred catties of grain per mu, the same is true!"

He said this to add icing on the cake and make the sycophants shoot more in place.

As soon as he said something, everyone in the hall looked suspicious, looking at their expressions, as if they didn't know what Hou Shigui was talking about.

Even Yang He seemed to be silent for a while when he heard this, and then asked in a deep voice:

"Four hundred catties per mu? Immortal seeds? ”

He didn't know about it!

Seeing Yang He's appearance, Hou Shigui understood why Xie Jing had not been promoted for a long time.

The concert of improved seeds, which yielded 400 catties per mu, was stopped and did not reach the emperor's eyes!

It's over, it's a big deal.

Hou Shigui's first reaction was not anger, but fear, because he knew what this meant to an emperor who was eager for quick success and wanted to get all the good names in the world, and ...... to himself What does it mean.

Sure enough, Yang He's face began to become increasingly ugly, and his voice was extremely cold:

"Go and summon Shen Ming, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, and Chao Xiuwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, to me."

After Wang Zhen hurriedly ran out of the hall, Yang He looked at Hou Shigui again:

"You tell me in detail about the immortal seed."

It's over, I wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but I didn't think about it, but I got into trouble, and at the same time provoked the Shangshu of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry......

In the past, although the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty spurned themselves, they only criticized and wrote a few words, which did not get in the way at all, after all, they did not touch anyone's core interests.

But this time...... If these two dared to conceal such a major matter from the emperor, they would surely suffer the wrath of thunder.

And if he broke this matter in the main hall, he would definitely be hated by the two of them as the culprits.

Although he regretted it in his heart, Hou Shigui also knew that regret was useless, so he only opened his mouth and said to Yang He:

"Back to Your Majesty, the immortal seed ......"

After Hou Shigui carefully finished telling Yang He about improving the seeds, Hou Shigui heard a loud scolding from behind him:

"You demon, you dare to run in front of Your Majesty and bewitch the public!

400 catties per mu? Hum! Why don't you say that the yield per mu is 4,000 catties?! ”

Shen Ming, the secretary of the household department, and Chao Xiuwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, entered the main hall together:

"Minister Shen Ming (Chao Xiuwen), meet Your Majesty."

Yang He nodded, and after signaling that the two of them didn't need to be polite, he asked directly:

"The two Qing families, can you know about the immortal seed?"

Shen Ming was not ashamed of being exposed to the truth at all, but replied with righteous words:

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister knows, that chapter was also stopped by the minister.

Just because Your Majesty has every opportunity, how can such a recital that is clearly a lie be presented to waste Your Majesty's time? ”

After he finished speaking, Chao Xiuwen also said:

"Your Majesty, that Lin Ben Ling Xie Jingchen also knows that he is a person with no virtue and no talent.

In order to seek a future, it is not surprising that this person collaborated with others to create a fake auspicious sycophancy, and I hope that His Majesty will be aware of it. ”

When Yang He heard this, he also nodded in agreement:

"The yield per mu is 400 catties, it sounds really fake, Hou Shigui, do you still have something to say?"

Hou Shigui is not afraid of confronting these two people, after all, this matter of 400 catties per mu is really true:

"The people don't want to argue, the merits, whether it's true or not, Your Majesty sent someone to Linben to find out."

"Humph! You demon, you dare to quibble when you are dying?! Today I will be Da Chu, for Your Majesty, except for your scourge! ”

That Shen Ming is also a violent temper, and when he heard Hou Shigui's words, he immediately wanted to have a drama about beating traitors in the palace of loyal ministers and making his name known to the world.

But he forgot about it.

Hou Shigui is not one of those ministers who are full of fat brains and can only do it.

He's from Xiling! That Xiling, who has been at war with Hu'er for a hundred years, is Chu Jing, the first line of defense of Great Chu!

I saw Shen Ming swooping in with his teeth and claws, and his body was full of loopholes.

Even if Hou Shigui has not practiced martial arts much, he can easily break it:

"How dare you use force in front of Your Majesty! I'm a mustard, and I can't allow you to be so presumptuous! ”

Hou Shigui pretended not to know the rules of the court, on the side of his body, dodged Shen Ming's grabbed hand, raised his foot and flew into the air, kicked him in the face, and kicked him to the ground with one move.

Shen Ming was kicked in the face by Cao Ke, who had no official position and no position, ashamed and angry:

"Treacherous!! I'm at odds with you!! ”

Hou Shigui ignored him, and instead saluted respectfully to Yang He:

"Your Majesty, the name of using force in the main hall is a capital crime!"

Yang He didn't like the practice of courtiers using force in the main hall, and when he saw Hou Shigui being so good, he also had a good impression in his heart:

"It doesn't matter, the palace uses force, there is a convention, I give you innocence, as for the matter of the immortal seed, I will send someone to Linben to verify it and then make the final account, Shen and Chao Erqing, privately detain the chapter, but it is also excusable, so I will be fined for three months as a punishment!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long."

The three of them said in unison.

As for the matter in Gao Ya, Yang Heti didn't mention it, but said:

"Hou Fu Shigui has made meritorious contributions, and he strives to ensure that this picture does not fall into the hands of thieves, and after the filial piety assessment, I will reward it again."

Although the emperor never mentioned Gao Yanei's name from beginning to end, just trying to ensure that this picture did not fall into the hands of thieves, then Gao Yanei died in vain.

Not only did he die in vain, but he also had the reputation of a thief, and even his father, Jingzhao Mansion Yin, would be implicated.

Hou Shigui wanted, this is what he said.

After retiring from the main hall, Wang Zhen still had to serve by Yang He's side.

So the person who came to see Hou Shigui was Zheng Yang:

"This time, I would also like to thank Supervisor Zheng for speaking up and helping."

Zheng Yang wanted to have a good relationship with Hou Shigui, but seeing that Hou Shigui was so polite, even if he was more polite than him:

"Where is it, our family just passed a word, if it weren't for the son, you are blessed with the sky, and the lucky stars are shining, our family will not be of much use."

The two were polite all the way, until they arrived at the palace gate, and Hou Shigui said goodbye.

"Childe, why didn't Your Majesty reward you?"

Except for the palace gate, Bao Ji asked impatiently.

Hou Shigui was not in a hurry:

"If I don't mention the matter of the immortal seed, Your Majesty will not be able to reward me as an official on the spot.

But the matter of the immortal seed made His Majesty completely happy, and if I didn't get a definite answer, Your Majesty would not give me any reward.

However, there is still a period of time before the filial piety assessment, and this time is enough to rush to Linben and come back. ”

This is also where Hou Shigui miscalculated, he never expected that the household department Shangshu would be so self-righteous.

Just because he thought that the piece was fake, he dared to withhold it and not report it.
