Chapter 506: Special Zone
Fang Jizhong looked around, there was no expression on his face, he just raised his eyelids and snorted.
"Isn't it important for Your Majesty to summon you?"
Such a sentence that was neither salty nor indifferent made the person who asked the question instantly panic, and he hurriedly bowed down and saluted, and followed Fang Jizhong's steps into the imperial study.
Fang Jizhong hurriedly walked up to the old emperor, bowed down and said:
"Your Majesty, the people from the Siyi Pavilion have brought it!"
The old emperor glanced at these people who came in, and then asked:
"I heard Aiqing say that you Siyi Pavilion are familiar with the languages of various countries, so let's identify what the Zhou Court said today."
Those few people didn't know what to answer, they all bowed their hands, Zhou Heng saw that it was time for him to appear, and he couldn't retreat at this time, so he bowed slightly and looked at a few people.
“Do you speak English? Fran?ais? ”
As soon as these words came out, all the adults present looked at the few people from the Siyi Pavilion who came in behind, and those people looked at each other and were dumbfounded.
What the hell is that?
Why have you never heard of it?
A few people, you look at me, I look at you, except for the puzzlement on their faces, the rest is only panic.
The man who had just asked Fang Jizhong hurriedly clenched his fists.
"I don't know what kind of language this lord is talking about, it seems to ...... It seems that I have not heard of it. ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Wen Changjin and the old emperor suddenly became gloomy.
This is the people of the Siyi Pavilion, and it is the language research place that Daliang is proud of, and the few people who called over to be on duty couldn't understand any of them, and asked what kind of language this was, and they all lost their faces.
Zhou Heng didn't think about it so much, it was an accident to meet that person, and as for his own language level, it was naturally clear how many catties and taels he had.
Looking at the person who asked the question, Zhou Heng said indifferently:
"What I just said is the language of two countries, of course both are vassal dialects, and these two languages are common in many countries in distant countries, one I call English, and the other is French?"
Those few people looked at each other, the displeasure on the old emperor's face, needless to say, they were already panicked, and hurriedly said:
"Your Majesty, these two languages have not been involved in the Siyi Pavilion, after all, among the people who came to my Great Liang Country, the people who spoke these two languages have not encountered it."
The old emperor snorted and looked at the few trembling people below.
"Haven't encountered it? Why did the court judge meet a merchant from this country that week? Why did they stay in Tianjin Port for many days, you don't know? ”
Zhou Heng saw that the old emperor's whole body was cold, and his eyes were murderous, at this time, if these people were punished, out of this door, the whole capital should be spread, how Zhou Heng was domineering, causing His Majesty to be angry, and killing everyone in the Siyi Pavilion, it is better to have less such infamy.
Now that I think about it, this Wen Changjin is ruthless and vicious enough, calling the people of the Siyi Pavilion, attacking and retreating, it is his ability to ask himself, and if he asks them, the emperor's anger is his own dominance, and he is not too calculating.
Although I hate it in my heart, I still have to settle down at this time.
"Your Majesty knows that the minister was injured last year, and he is a little confused about his memory, and he can't remember many things, but the remaining fragments remember that my grandfather had treated the people of the vassal country, and these people also came from the sea, far away from our Daliang, thousands of mountains and rivers, and drifted to the boundary of Daliang because the ship was damaged.
Therefore, after all, there are very few of these people who come to Daliang, and I just remember that their people are blonde and blue-eyed, tall, and have a special smell on their bodies.
On that day, my entourage only happened to meet such people on the street, and they thought that the things they sold were novel, so they brought them to show me, so these are just accidental incidents, if it is a neighboring country, I want to come to the Siyi Pavilion to understand a lot, I hope Your Majesty will be angry. ”
The old emperor glanced at Zhou Heng and waved his hand slightly, Zhou Heng hurriedly stood to the side, the angry expression on his face was also lightened, but he was still a little indignant, a group of people who spent money to support him were not as good as a Zhou Heng, and it was impossible not to get angry.
"The people of the Siyi Pavilion study in vain behind closed doors, and all the people of the Siyi Pavilion will be punished for half a year as a punishment, and in the future, if there are any foreign clans who come to my Daliang, they will understand their words and retreat!"
The trembling people quickly knelt down and exited the imperial study.
The person who was the leader looked at Zhou Heng with gratitude, he knew very well that if it wasn't for the intercession of this person who was not wearing an official robe just now, several of them would not be able to escape the death penalty today.
The old emperor let out a sigh of relief, obviously a little tired, and raised his eyelids to look at the people below.
"These two crops, no matter what kind of channel they come from, are now successfully planted in Tongzhou, and the yield I and Zhang Aiqing have also seen, the quantity is undoubted, as for large-scale planting, it is not an overnight effort to promote it.
I thought, since the planting in Tongzhou has been successful, then Tongzhou is now promoting planting, as for the cultivation method of Tianfu and the squire, Liu Renli, you come up with a charter, no need to worry about the original tax standard, come up with a set of regulations.
Zhang Aiqing submitted it later, and the matter is decided, so you can step down! ”
Zhou Hengyi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect the old emperor to have his own ideas, is this preparing to build a special zone?
The statute is set, but the courtiers, especially these imperial histories, will definitely blow up, and all the spearheads are pointed at Liu Renli and Zhang Fuling, and he is happy to see these two become the target of public criticism.
After all, the more this is the case, the more they have no way out, and they can only be loyal to the old emperor, once the new monarch ascends the throne, the first to be frustrated and punished, it is estimated that these two people will be punished.
Just as Zhou Heng's thoughts flashed, Wen Changjin hurriedly stepped forward, his face full of shock.
"Your Majesty must not, although Your Majesty has seen the high yield of these two crops with your own eyes, but all of them are promoted in a Tongzhou, if it is not properly controlled, the people will be unhappy, if the peasants rebel, this is not ruined Your Majesty's intentions?"
The old emperor did not hesitate this time, and raised his hand to stop Wen Changjin's generous statement.
"How can you waste food because of choking, there is no need to discuss this matter, and it is forbidden to discuss this matter in the DPRK and China, take out the charter and send it to the palace at any time, you can retreat!"
Wen Changjin seemed to have something to say, but was stopped by an adult beside him, Zhou Heng happily withdrew, stood at the door and waited for a while, Zhang Fuling and Liu Renli came out, and he nodded quickly.
At this moment, Wen Changjin stepped out and glanced at Zhou Heng and they snorted coldly.
"Hmph, if you don't learn and don't know how to do it, when will the doctors in the Tai Hospital be able to discuss national affairs, it really opens the eyes of the old man."
Zhang Fuling grabbed Zhou Heng's sleeve, he was afraid that Zhou Heng would be young and vigorous, and wanted to stop him, Zhou Heng shook his head at him with a smile, and respectfully gave Wen Changjin a salute.
"Wen Shangshu is good, I haven't seen you for a few months, Wen Shangshu is still so irritable, you must know that irritability hurts the liver, looking at Wen Shangshu's face, and slightly cyanotic lips, you need to take good care of your body, don't be tired, if you need the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital, you can send someone over at any time.
As for today, I want to come to Wen Shangshu and see it, dressed in civilian clothes, I was originally called by Fang's father-in-law in a hurry at home, and I thought I was going to go to the doctor, as for the six words of discussing national affairs, but I can't afford it, if I hear Shangshu has any doubts, you can ask Your Majesty why he has this move. ”
After speaking, Zhou Heng lowered his eyes and stood in place, without disrespect or flattery, he just stood indifferently like that, not even giving him a look.
Wen Changjin was so angry that he pointed at Zhou Heng for a while, didn't say anything, stomped his feet and turned away.
Another civil official, Zhou Heng, remembered that this person had been standing beside Wen Changjin, and it seemed that when Wen Changjin was arguing with the old emperor, he had pulled Wen Changjin, and it was obvious that the relationship between the two was very good.
This person glanced at Zhou Heng and Zhang Fuling, and quickly chased after Wen Changjin.
Zhou Heng pursed his lips, staring at the two of them, and suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder, and almost slapped him over with this slap, and when he turned around, the two generals and another adult were standing behind Zhou Heng, and it was the adult who slapped Zhou Heng.
"You...... What for? ”
