Chapter 36 Farce, Winter Wheat

"Retreat!"

With the shrill voices of the palace guards, many courtiers hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"The ministers are leaving."

After that, the ministers lightly withdrew from Xianyang Palace.

And after the ministers withdrew from Xianyang Palace, these people completely stopped hiding their hostility towards Mo Jun, and they all swept towards Mo Jun with eyes like knives.

Seeing this, some of the surrounding officials who remained neutral in the court, or who did not participate in this battle, also stayed away from Mo Jun one after another, like avoiding snakes and scorpions.

Obviously.

This time, even these neutral forces felt that Mo Jun was probably going to be unlucky.

This has nothing to do with right or wrong, the main reason is that Mo Jun has offended too many people this time.

Only a very small number of officials came to Mo Jun's side and showed their side.

In fact, these people have no choice, because they are the Mofu disciples who were recommended by Mo Jun to enter the court, they are born in the same position as Mo Jun, others can hide, but they can't dodge.

"My lord, are you a little impulsive this time?"

A guest from Mofu reminded Mo Jun in a tactful tone as much as possible.

When Mo Jun heard his words, he touched his chin and said, "Impulsive? Have it! ”

When another Mofu doorman heard this, he couldn't help but remind: "My lord, although you are now a king and a very popular minister, you are hard to beat with two fists and four hands!" ”

Mo Jun nodded in agreement and said, "What you said makes sense······ Have you ever fought in a group? ”

Hearing the first half of Mo Jun's words, the Mo Mansion doorman thought that this Shengping Jun understood his advice, but he didn't expect that immediately after the second half of the sentence, Mo Jun suddenly changed his words and asked another question.

Mofu doorman: "??? ”

When I say that two fists are hard to beat four hands, I mean not to offend too many people at once, not really to fight!

And at this moment, I only heard Mo Jun continue to speak: "It seems that you haven't fought, in that case, Ben Jun will teach you the basic essentials of group fighting today!" ”

As he spoke, he saw that under the stunned gazes of several Mofu guests, Mo Jun slowly walked to a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform similar to Mo Jun.

"Does Kim Tingwei have an opinion about Benjun?"

"Oh? Why did Sheng Pingjun say this? ”

The middle-aged man opposite Mo Jun was stunned for a moment when he saw Mo Jun suddenly walking in front of him, but then slightly restrained the coldness in his eyes, and asked Mo Jun with a smile.

"It's nothing, if Jin Tingwei has an opinion on Benjun, then we just have a good relationship."

"Oh? I don't know what I did wrong, but I made Shengping Jun displeased. If there is a mistake in the next, please also ask Shengping Jun to speak bluntly, and he will definitely come to the door to apologize if he has the opportunity to do so. ”

When the middle-aged man heard Mo Jun's words, he was stunned again, but then returned to his previous smiling appearance.

Mo Jun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no······ Don't get me wrong, Benjun doesn't have an opinion about you, but has a lot of opinions about Jin Tingwei's hometown of Hedong County. ”

"After all, Hedong County has paid the least amount of grain tax in the country this year, and this gentleman, as the ruler of Su, will naturally be dissatisfied when he sees that there is such a barren land in my Great Qin."

"So Benjun has decided that he will ask the king for instructions to go to Hedong County soon, and Benjun must go over there to see what is the reason why my land in Daqin can't grow grain."

"Jin Tingwei also rest assured that after Benjun arrives in Hedong County, he will definitely do his best to solve the difficulties of the local people and revitalize the land of Hedong County."

Mo Jun's last words can be described as righteous and awe-inspiring, righteous and stern.

However, when his words fell into the ears of Jin Youjun and other courtiers, he became a threat to Chi Guoguo.

Mo Jun went to Hedong County, what is that concept?

Since Mo Jun was promoted, he has only served as an official in three places in the Qin State.

One is South County.

Mo Jun killed twenty-seven Nanjun nobles over there and captured Chang Yu alive.

The second is Xianyang.

Mo Jun overthrew Lü Buwei here and defeated the relatives of Chu.

The third is Hanzhong.

Mo Jun was more direct in Hanzhong, and the nobles in Hanzhong showed a flaw, and he directly raided the family and destroyed sixty or seventy families.

Now Mo Jun actually said that he was going to Hedong County to ask for an inspection, and he specifically mentioned that this was Jin Youjun's hometown.

What the hell isn't this threatening?

After listening to what Mo Jun said, everyone subconsciously looked at Jin Youjun's expression.

Sure enough.

When Mo Jun finished speaking, the smiling expression on Jin Youjun's original face had disappeared, and was replaced by an indescribable chill.

I only heard him say in a cold voice: "Is Shengpingjun threatening?" ”

This time, Mo Jun showed a smiling gaze and said, "Alas! What did Jin Tingwei say, as the so-called body is not afraid of shadows, and it is his duty to inspect Hedong County, so what is the threat? ”

After saying that, Mo Jun suddenly turned his head to look at the rest of the courtiers next to him, and grinned: "By the way, you can also put forward any opinions to Benjun, otherwise, if the king wants to order a thorough investigation of the grain taxes in each county next, Benjun may not have time to take care of the ministers when he is busy." ”

Threat.

It's the threat of Chiguoguo again.

Hearing Mo Jun's words, the faces of many people present suddenly changed drastically.

I was probably too angry before, so that many people almost forgot that although the Shengping Jun in front of him was not very old, his character was insidious and vicious, and he would be revenged.

Think about it.

So far, none of the people who have offended Mo Jun seem to have ended well.

"Alas~ My wife stewed chicken soup at home and waited for the official to come home and drink it! The old man takes the first step, and everyone walks slowly. ”

"Oh no, the official's clothes at home forgot to dry, and the official is leaving."

"This official is on official business, so he will not send it."

······

Quick as a wink.

The many courtiers who were still frowning at Mo Jun just now had already dissipated in the blink of an eye.

Only Jin Youjun was left alone and still confronting Mojun, but without the help of many courtiers behind him, Jin Youjun was obviously a little lacking in confidence.

"Humph!"

In the end, Jin Youjun snorted coldly and walked away.

And the officials and ministers of the other neutral forces, as well as those guests in the Mo Mansion, were also a little stunned when they saw this scene in front of them.

Although they all knew that Mo Jun's power in the court was extraordinary now, it was not until today that they really saw Mo Jun's influence.

Speaking of which.

These disciples are indeed kindly reminding Mo Jun, after all, they are now in the same position, if Mo Jun suddenly falls at this time, then not only will they be implicated, but even the previous investment in Mo Jun will be wasted.

But it's a pity that these people and Mo Jun's pattern are not at the same level after all.

Mo Jun does intend to cultivate some opponents for himself, so as to weaken Yingzheng's fear of himself, but this does not mean that any cat or dog can ride on his head.

······

After dealing with this farce.

Mo Jun did not leave here, but waited until everyone left, returned to Xianyang Palace, and went straight to Zhangtai Palace behind Xianyang Palace.

Coming to the gate of Zhangtai Palace, Mo Jun first waited for the guards to enter the door to report, and after Yingzheng publicized, Mo Jun walked into Zhangtai Palace.

Zhangtai Palace is the main place for Ying Zheng to handle government affairs and hold small meetings.

Usually here, Ying Zheng's dress will be casual, just like now, Ying Zheng is only wearing a Xuanyi dragon robe, and the pearl crown has been taken off.

When Mo Jun entered Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng rarely did not deal with government affairs, but stood by the window, talking about something with Gai Nie, and enjoying the scenery outside the window by the way.

Seeing Mo Jun coming, Ying Zheng turned around and chuckled: "Mo Qing really made a lot of trouble for the widow this time!" ”

Mo Jun said calmly: "There are some hidden dangers, rather than waiting for them to break out in the future, it is better to take the initiative to puncture them." ”

Ying Zheng nodded, then glanced at Mo Jun with some meaning, and said, "Yes, this time, those people are indeed a little overdone." ”

This sentence is a pun.

The first meaning of 'over' is naturally food.

Yingzheng can tolerate the local nobles and courtiers in various counties stealing some grain taxes, after all, when the water is clear, there is no fish. But that's only part of it, judging from the situation exposed by Mo Jun now, the grain tax that these people have stolen has obviously exceeded Yingzheng's bottom line.

The second meaning of 'passed' refers to the scene that happened outside Xianyang Palace before.

Obviously, the situation just now has been known to Ying Zheng, including Mo Jun's threat to Jin Youjun.

This is normal, after all, this is Xianyang Palace, if you don't even know this thing, then Yingzheng, the king, will inevitably be a little too much of a failure.

However, Mo Jun didn't expect to hide from Yingzheng.

After all, if you don't do this, how can you show your attitude openly?

"Mo Qing came to visit the widow this time, why did he come to visit? Could it be that Mo Qing really plans to go to various counties and counties to investigate the grain tax? ”

Speaking of this, Ying Zheng also showed a slight smile in his eyes.

In fact, Ying Zheng has seen through a lot of Mo Jun's behavior of deliberately cultivating opponents for himself, and in terms of power schemes alone, Mo Jun is obviously far from Ying Zheng.

So far, except for the period when he first started to develop obscenely, when Mo Jun dealt with others later, most of them directly used the general trend to suppress people, and there were basically not so many bells and whistles.

Because sometimes the simplest is often the most effective.

And for these small actions of Mo Jun.

On the one hand, Ying Zheng was a little relieved, no matter what, Mo Jun's attitude had been expressed obviously, which made him very relieved.

But on the other hand, Ying Zheng was actually a little helpless, because he found that the courage of his 'Shengping Jun' seemed to be much smaller than he imagined.

"The minister is not good at investigating cases, and he came here only because the minister has something he wants to sacrifice to the king."

"What's that?"

Hearing that Mo Jun had something to offer to himself, Ying Zheng suddenly perked up and immediately became interested.

Even Gai Nie, who was on the side, heard this, and turned his gaze slightly and looked this way.

So far, all the things that Mojun has dedicated to Yingzheng are all good treasures for the benefit of the country and the people, and any of them released is something that can be called a 'divine object'.

"Your Majesty, please see."

Mo Jun said, slowly took out a small cloth bag from his arms, and after opening it, he saw that there were grains of wheat inside.

"It's ······ Wheat. ”

Ying Zheng looked at the wheat grain in the cloth bag, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and he remembered something, and said, "Could it be that Moqing has even created the 'improved seed' of wheat now?" ”

"Eh~~ Actually, [the first generation of improved wheat seeds] has indeed been studied, but this is not [the first generation of improved wheat seeds], but a new variety of wheat seeds."

"Mo Qing has really researched the [first generation of improved wheat seeds]? What is the yield? How does it compare to the first generation of improved rice seeds? ”

Ying Zheng originally just said it casually, but he didn't expect Mo Jun to really give himself a positive response, which suddenly made Ying Zheng couldn't help but get excited.

To know.

Today, the territory of the Qin State is almost half of the north and the south.

Basically, the area north of the Qinling Mountains, including Xianyang, is unable to grow rice.

This is also the reason why, according to the original estimate, the Quyuan plough and the 'new grain species' could theoretically increase the grain output of the entire Qin State by one and a half times, but in the end it was only doubled.

But if Mo Jun invents the [First Generation Improved Wheat Seed] now, it will represent the northern territory of the entire Qin State, and the grain production will also be doubled.

Today, there is no country that does not lack food.

For Yingzheng, no matter how much food there is, it will not be too much, because more food will not only allow the people of Li to eat more and better, but also feed more people.

Nowadays, the more people you have, the stronger a country is.

Mo Jun replied: "The yield of the [First Generation Improved Wheat Seeds] is similar to that of rice seeds, but in comparison, the minister thinks that the wheat seeds in this are perhaps preferred by the king. ”

Seeing that Mo Jun didn't mention the [first-generation improved wheat seeds] for the first time, but kept recommending this [new wheat seeds] to himself, Ying Zheng was also a little more curious in his heart.

He said: "Could it be that the yield of the wheat seeds in this is actually higher than that of the [first generation of improved wheat seeds]?" ”

Mo Jun shook his head and said: "Not really, although the yield of this [new wheat seed] has also increased, its biggest feature is not the yield, but the growth time. ”

"This new variety of wheat is named [winter wheat]."
