When Shen Xi was preparing the script for Xie Qian, Yin Wen looked curiously on the side, the little hand holding the pu fan was fast and slow, and occasionally she would look at Shen Xi distracted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Aren't you hot?"

Shen Xi felt the cool breeze and felt a warm feeling in his heart...... Yin Wen is like his intimate little padded jacket, no matter what he does, this little girl likes to accompany him so quietly, which makes his body and mind in a relaxed state.

"Huh!?"

Yin Wen thought for a moment, then shook his head.

Although Xiao Nizi already saw beads of sweat on her forehead, as long as she was by Shen Xi's side, she didn't feel hot, because the joy in her heart made her forget the discomfort of her body.

Shen Xi smiled: "Fan yourself, I'm going to go out in a while, obedient at home, you know?" ”

"Uh-huh."

Yin Wen used to like to stick to Shen Xi the most, for fear that Shen Xi would not come back after going out, and even Shen Xi would hide in her house and cry after going out, but later she knew that every time she sent Shen Xi away, she could see Shen Xi come back when she turned around, and every time she met, it was a little more fresh. Although there is only less than a day of separation each time, it makes Xiao Nizi have a feeling of "little farewell is better than newlywed".

Shen Xi wrote the notebook, and after checking it, he sent it to Xie Qian, and just came to the gate of Xie's mansion, he found that there was a sedan chair parked outside, and it seemed that someone had come to visit Xie's mansion.

For Xie Qian's draft, in the end it will make Xie Qian feel embarrassed, Shen Xi was about to leave, but a servant of Xie Mansion came out and said: "Lord Shen, my master and Liu Shangshu have been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Only then did Shen Xi know that it was Liu Daxia who had arrived at Xie Qian's mansion.

After Liu Daxia returned to Beijing, Shen Xi did not make a special visit, mainly because he didn't want Liu Daxia to feel that he was coercing him to repay his kindness, and then questioned his character.

"Did Liu Shangshu come by himself, or was he invited?" When entering the courtyard, Shen Xi asked casually.

Because Shen Xi often came, even when Xie Qian was not at home, Shen Xi could freely enter and leave Xie Mansion, which made Shen Xi familiar with the servants of Xie Mansion.

The servant smiled and explained, "My lord, you are embarrassing me...... Even if the master sent someone to invite someone, I was not responsible for handling it, and I have no way of knowing! ”

Shen Xi thought about it and smiled dumbly, this is indeed the truth, could it be that the master went to invite who would inform the servant?

Before he arrived at the door of the study, Shen Xi heard Xie Qian's hearty laughter, as if he was saying something interesting. Shen Xi stepped into the threshold and saluted respectfully: "Xie Ge Lao, Liu Shangshu ......"

There was no one in the room except Liu Daxia and Xie Qian, because it was the height of summer in June, the doors and windows were open, and they were discussing court affairs, and no one dared to approach the study.

"Shen Xi, I'm talking about you, you're here......" Xie Qian said with a smile, "Liu Shangshu said that when you were in Yansui, you drove the ox cart to the battlefield, and when you commanded the battle, you stood on the board like a flagpole...... Haha, you kid is brave enough not to be shot down by a Tatar shooter? ”

Shen Xi thought to himself, you studied geography in my previous life, and you don't know that the north of Yulinwei is the Yuxi River? If the Tatars want to shoot me with bows and arrows, they must at least first defeat Liu Daxia's Chinese army and cross the river, and at that time, I will definitely slip faster than anyone else.

What battlefield should not be a deserter, and I am not a soldier, why should I be in front of the killing?

"At that time, the students were so focused on helping them earlier, but they didn't care about themselves." It's one thing in mind, but Shen Xi's answer is full of family and country feelings.

Xie Qian glanced at Shen Xi angrily, as if to say, I don't understand your kid's little fancy intestines? I know how to pick the best ones to say. Liu Daxia praised with a smile: "Okay, the vicissitudes of the sea show the true character of a hero, with a capable minister like you, why don't I talk about it?" Why should the people worry about food and clothing? ”

Hearing this, Shen Xi knew that Xie Qian had told Liu Daxia about his proposal to introduce corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes from the Franco, which meant that Liu Daxia had come at Xie Qian's invitation.

Xie Qian waved his hand and said, "Shen Xi, sit." ”

In front of Liu Daxia, Xie Qian directly referred to him by name.

After all, Shen Xi is fifteen years old, and he has no table words, so if he wants to call him, he can't just call one "Xi", so he has to add his surname together.

Because Xie Qian and Liu Daxia regarded themselves as "Mr. and elders" in front of Shen Xi, calling Shen Xi by his name was a kind of care for the younger generations.

Shen Xi saluted: "Students don't dare. ”

Liu Daxia said: "What don't you dare, there are no others here, so you don't need to be too formal." Earlier, Xie Gebu told me that you had a proposal to introduce several drought-tolerant and high-yielding crops from the Franco-Rang machine...... This is not child's play, if it is harmful to my Ming people, then you are a sinner through the ages. ”

"Back to Liu Shangshu's words, the student did suggest the introduction of several crops, but Liu Shangshu did not have to worry about whether these crops were harmful to my Ming people, because before large-scale promotion, the first trial planting will be carried out in a small area, on the one hand, it is to cultivate seeds, and then carry out a second round of planting until the best seeds are selected; On the other hand, it is to let a small number of people eat it to see if there are any toxic side effects. If Liu Shangshu is not at ease, students can be the first to try it. Shen Xi said.

Liu Daxia smiled: "Are you making it difficult for you to treat me?" In fact...... It's just to tell you to be careful, to be careful in what you say and do. You will tell me in detail about these crops you know, I have been in the household department for many years, and I may be able to talk to the cabinet department and you for a good reference. ”

Shen Xi probably understood what was going on.

Xie Qian felt that this matter was very important, if according to Shen Xi's words, several new crops were introduced, but in the end something went wrong, and the responsibility could only be borne by him alone. This time, Liu Daxia was invited to come because he took a fancy to Liu Daxia's lofty status in the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, and by the way, he used Liu Daxia's talent and knowledge to discuss whether it was feasible together.

The most important thing is to let Liu Daxia take the blame with him.

Shen Xi took out the manuscript and said, "Please take a look at the cabinet and Liu Shangshu." ”

Xie Qian took the notebook, and after just a few glances, he felt a little embarrassed, because Shen Xi wrote it completely in his tone, and if he showed it to Liu Daxia like this, it was tantamount to telling Liu Daxia that Shen Xi had been helping him do this kind of thing. But Liu Daxia was eager to know the status of these crops, and most importantly the yield, as well as the taste and edibility.

Waiting for Xie Qian to hand over the notebook to Liu Daxia, Liu Daxia couldn't help but have a narrow smile on his face when he saw it, which made Xie Qian embarrassed.

But in the end, Liu Daxia didn't say why he laughed, and Xie Qian was embarrassed to ask.

"Shen Xi, what are you talking about...... Corn, as well as potatoes and sweet potatoes, are indeed very suitable for the people of the Ming Dynasty, especially those slopes and sandy lands that are not suitable for planting rice and wheat can be used. But...... Where did you find out? ”

Liu Daxia has a habit of asking questions about some unsolved things.

What no one in the Ming Dynasty knows, only Shen Xi knows, there must be a reasonable explanation here in Liu Daxia, it's not that Shen Xi said that he could deal with it casually if he saw it from any ancient book, because Liu Daxia would let him take out the ancient books in the next step.

When encountering someone who is more serious, Shen Xi can only deal with it with an answer that makes the other party unable to be more serious: "This matter was accidentally mentioned by the students on the way to escort the envoys of the Francophone into Beijing. ”

"Oh?"

When Liu Daxia heard this, he was really embarrassed to ask.

Shen Xi said that he was escorting the envoys of the Franc machine to the capital, but in fact, it was an "escort", and along the way, these Franc people were treated as prisoners, and it seemed that it was not impossible for Shen Xi to force something out of their mouths.

"Okay." Liu Daxia nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then after the Xie Pavilion is played, it will be decided by His Majesty himself." However, I think that Your Majesty will most likely agree to the introduction, but you need to see the specific situation, just like Shen Xi said, it needs to be planted in a small area...... Your suggestion is good! ”

"Uh-huh......"

Xie Qian cleared his throat, as if to remind Liu Daxia of something. Liu Daxia said with a smile: "This is not a speculation, and there are only three people here, will it be spread in the ears of outsiders?" ”

To discuss things, of course, the emperor's attitude must be taken into account. Since Shen Xi drafted this manuscript on behalf of him, and said that corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes were so good, the emperor had no reason to refuse, but he would cautiously try to plant them for a few years, and only after having an intuitive effect and comparing them with other crops would he promote them to the whole country on a large scale.

Xie Qian asked, "Then Liu Shangshu thinks that this matter is feasible?" ”

"Of course."

Liu Daxia nodded, "Isn't the Xie Pavilion Department trying to let the old man play with you?" ”

Xie Qian smiled, but he didn't think so: "I will give you half of the credit for this kind of good deed?" But you are always needed to help beat the side drum in front of the emperor, and it is not appropriate to refuse directly. ”

"If there is anything involved in this matter, it is really not what the old man wants." Xie Qian looked upright, "But if Your Majesty has any doubts about this matter, please also ask Brother Shi Yong to speak more kind words to Your Majesty." ”

Liu Daxia smiled and nodded, he knew very well how cunning Xie Lao'er's old fox was, but he would not bother with Xie Qian, because he knew that Xie Qian was not the kind of person who sacrificed righteousness and self-interest simply for the sake of merit, and this time he was able to obtain great military achievements at the border pass for the appreciation of Emperor Hongzhi, among which there was Xie Qian's main merit in sending troops, and even Shen Xi, the key figure in this battle, went to the border pass to transport artillery under Xie Qian's recommendation.

Xie Qian gave him a great credit, and Liu Daxia was also willing to repay the favor by helping Xie Qian in the introduction of corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

After finishing his business, Xie Qian began to copy the manuscript drafted by Shen Xi in front of his desk, and indeed he didn't need to change a single word. Because Xie Qian was afraid that there was something he didn't understand, and he couldn't answer when he turned back to the emperor's summons, he deliberately left Shen Xi and asked at any time.

Liu Daxia looked at Shen Xi and said with emotion: "Shen Xi, you have been a lot more restrained since you came back, and you are not as hot as before." Maybe it's because I have a complaint about your greed, but there are some things that need to be done step by step, and in two years' time, I will definitely recommend it to Your Majesty and let you take the lead. ”

Shen Xi even said "don't dare", and then bowed again to thank him, but he was a little disdainful in his heart: "You promised me so many blank checks, which time have you cashed them?" Don't prevaricate me with the means of dealing with others! ”
