Chapter 359: A White Silk

While there was a lot of discussion, most of the people said that they wanted to buy some more fertilizer to use in their own crops.

The official of the Agricultural Technology Department with a wry smile pressed his hand and said, "Folks... Listen to me, big guy! I'm here again today to educate you on how to use chemical fertilizers correctly, and it's true that chemical fertilizers can help crops grow."

"But it's not a panacea... If you use the wrong fertilizer, it won't just help us get a better harvest... Maybe! By this time next year, there will be no crops left in the field! ”

The people were all puzzled, and a middle-aged woman opened her mouth and said directly: "How is this possible... We've all used it well! Isn't it, you deliberately didn't want to sell it to us, so you said such a thing to coax? ”

"That's right! If you sell us more fertilizer, we will be able to sell more grain... When the time comes, you can set up an immortal archway! ”

The villagers' words frightened the officials of the Agricultural Technology Department a little.

Hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare!" I'm going to talk to the big guy about this fertilizer right now...."

In the following period, the officials of the Agricultural Technology Department can be said to have exhausted all their efforts to explain to the surrounding villagers that the more fertilizer is used, the better, and if it is used too much, it will not only harm the soil... They can even cause the crops in the field to die immediately.

It must be used rationally in accordance with the requirements of the Department of Agricultural Technology for the use of chemical fertilizers.

In fact, even the people may not have noticed... They gradually began to accept the officials around them who were dressed like ordinary people.

These young scholars often don't like to wear official robes.

Most of the time, they prefer to wear the same clothes as the common people, and they don't care what kind of environment they are in, and these people are willing to accept such officials.

The kind of estrangement between the government and the people that inherited the previous year.

It is being disintegrated little by little, especially the officials under the Ministry of Agriculture, who are usually quite close to the people.

The people began to trust the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

Officials began to no longer live in temples, but were willing to go to the fields, which is undoubtedly the achievement and improvement brought about by Zhu Youzhen's reform of the rule of officials.

....

The other side.

Since Annam was captured by the Binh Nam army, the Ruan family and his son have been immersed in waiting for the holy decree from the Ming Dynasty to help them return to the throne of Quang Nam almost every day.

Ruan Quang Binh angrily scolded the soldiers of the Pingnan Army outside the prison and said, "No matter what... I am the king of Quang Nam, not a traitor! You shouldn't put me in prison! ”

Ruan Fuying on the side wanted to dissuade his short-tempered father, but after thinking about it, he had been making gruel with clear soup and little water with green vegetables every day recently, and there was no meat taste in his mouth.

Come to think of it.

Ruan Fuying couldn't sit still either, and stood up like his father...

He shouted outside the cell: "We are the father and son of the Ruan family in Annam, and we are the king of Quang Nam who was personally canonized by the Ming Emperor... You are the army of the Ming Dynasty, and you must treat us with great courtesy. How can it be so rough! ”

"yes.. How can you be so arrogant and never give us even a bit of meat.."

Just as the father and son were singing and harmonizing, the iron doors outside the prison were opened one by one.

After the father and son of the Ruan family heard the voice, their hearts immediately sank, could it be that the holy decree from the Ming Emperor that they had been waiting for was about to arrive today?

From now on.. Will he become the king of Quang Nam again and rule Annam again?

It's just that they obviously can't wait for such a good thing... It didn't take long for the two Nguyen to see a man dressed as a eunuch approaching, but he didn't send anyone to open the prison door.

Instead, he opened the decree to the iron door and prepared to read it aloud, but before that, as was customary, he said, "The king of Quang Nam listens to the decree!" ”

This is a familiar phrase.

Ruan Quang Binh knelt on the ground excitedly, bowed his head and said, "Ruan Quang Binh, the king of Quang Nan... Welcome to the Divine Decree! ”

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: Taizu founded the country, has always been kind to foreign vassals, and has taken care of Annam even more than the emperor's grace, but the king of Quang Nam, Ruan, ignored the imperial edict and took the opportunity to rebel several times, so that Annan was demoted to a dependent territory and still did not repent..."

The eunuch said, Ruan Guangping's cold sweat fell, Rao is no matter how stupid he is, he should understand that this holy decree has not been said a good word until now.

Then the little eunuch just raised his eyes contemptuously and glanced at Ruan Guangping, and then continued to read: "In order to avoid the repetition of the disaster of Annan, and in order to demonstrate that the power of the Ming Dynasty cannot be provoked, the province of Annan was specially set up and placed under the jurisdiction of Yunnan, and I also made meritorious contributions to the Ruan clan in guarding the border of the Ming Dynasty..."

Nguyen Phuc Anh and Nguyen Quang Binh were both kneeling on the ground in a cold sweat, but when they heard that Annan was going to be classified as a province, they couldn't hide their sadness.

But it wasn't until they said that they had made meritorious contributions to the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, and the two of them were surging again, and they couldn't stop shouting in their hearts. Really! Bet right!

However, the eunuch continued: "Therefore, I have mercy on my heart, and I have specially given the Ruan father and son a white silk horse and two wooden stools... To show my heart! Chin this! ”

The decree was read.

The eunuch changed his cold expression just now, but instead had a bit of a smile on his face.

He reopened his mouth and said: "Isn't the Ruan family about receiving the order to thank the emperor, and our family will bring you the emperor's grace?!" ”

Ruan Quang Binh's heart can be said to have been on a roller coaster ride with this holy decree from Zhu Youzhen. When he heard that only one horse was given to him, Bai Aya.

The whole person was already paralyzed in the cell, his legs were like a shaking sieve, and he said in an inaudible voice: "Sinner... Nguyen Quang Binh, take the order! ”

Ruan Fuying didn't know where he wanted the father and son to hang themselves.

It's just a different set of rhetoric.

originally thought that waiting for the arrival of the Ming army, his family would be able to return to the status of the king of Guangnan.

But what was ushered in was just a decree of death, and for a while, his face was like ashes, and he said in disbelief: "Father... This.. Is this really His Majesty's decree to us? ”

Ruan Quang Binh knelt up again with all his might, closed his eyes and raised his hands high to take the holy decree handed over by the eunuch.

Then he said directly to his son: "Son... Our father and son should think of this day, if it were not for the coercion of the Tusi tribe, if it were not for the anger of the Great Tomorrow several times... How did you fall to this! This.. It's fate! ”

After hearing what his father said, Ruan Fuying fainted directly.

In the third year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, the father and son of the Ruan family, the king of Guangnan in Annan, were given to die, and the Ming Dynasty set up a province in Annan and was under the jurisdiction of Yunnan.
