Chapter 163: The Sense of Crisis of Civil Officials

When Zhu Zhan was busy building a view of Beijing, and Zhu Di was puzzled by Zhu Zhan Yan's actions, Yunnan had changed slightly.

For example, rice takes about five months, and can only be harvested once every three or four months in places close to the tropics, while winter wheat takes even longer.

Of course, this depends on the geographical disparity, and the time of grain cultivation and harvesting varies in each place.

However, the ripening period of exotic crops is usually relatively short, for example, potatoes can be harvested in three to four months, corn is about the same as potatoes, and sweet potatoes take a little longer, four to five months.

More than three months after Zhu Zhanyan left, it was time to harvest the seeds that had been planted for the first time.

Corn and potatoes are the two crops that Zhu attaches the most importance to.

"Look! Don't let people in! ”

"Qian Yong! Jane laughs! Sanfeng! The inside will be handed over to you, but if you find that someone is holding you hostage, you can deal with it on the spot! ”

"Others! Get baskets and black cloth ready! ”

Zhu Gaoxu was very nervous and commanded everyone present, just because his son had told him before setting off that these things would most likely be the foundation of their Han King lineage in the future.

For this reason, Zhu Gaoxu himself did not plan to participate, but gave the greatest power to Qian Yong and the three of them, because he knew that Qian Yong and the three of them knew the most and were the most reliable.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Qian Yong didn't know anything, he wouldn't let the things they had brought back with all their might be taken away by others.

In this matter, Zhu Gaoxu may not be able to trust his guards, but he can definitely trust Qian Yong and the others.

But in reality, there were very few seeds, and the final harvest was not much, and there was more corn, but it was still quickly harvested.

Qian Yong and the three of them handed over the things to Zhu Gaoxu with some excitement, and then glanced at each other, and they all saw a feeling called worthiness in each other's eyes.

"Don't worry, live well." Zhu Gaoxu looked at the reaction of Qian Yong and the others, and felt a little emotion in his heart.

"I know that there has been a lot of gossip recently, especially for Sanfeng, but Zhan Yan promised you that I believe in him, and I hope you will believe him too."

"Zhan Yan is rarely dishonest with others, and there have only been two times so far, and they are all caused by objective reasons."

"In this Yunnan, the Han Wangfu may not be able to directly decide everything, but it still has influence."

"So, I believe that Zhan Yan will fulfill his promise to you."

"Thanks! His Royal Highness the King of Han! Qian Yong and the three knelt down in obedience, reluctant to get up for a long time.

After coming to Yunnan, compared with Zhu Gaochu who was in Yingtianfu before, the current Zhu Gaochu can no longer be said to be open, but should be described as an open gate.

Of course, this is mainly because his level was so low before, but it is always good to improve.

"Alright, get up." Zhu Gaoxu sighed for a while, and then personally bent down to help Qian Yong and the others.

"I can understand your feelings a little, but you don't have to worry about it in the future, neither Zhan Yan nor I will treat you badly."

"This year is the triennial tea and horse market, last time Zhan Yan originally wanted to go in person, but was involved in the matter of Jiaozhi, and I couldn't leave Yunnan, so I let Zhu Heng go."

"Zhu Heng, you all know, I have been my personal guard for more than 20 years, except for Zhan Yan, he is the one I trust the most in the whole of Yunnan."

"Now that he is on an expedition to the Wa Kingdom, I can't let him go this year, do you three want to go?"

Qian Yong and the three were stunned when they heard this.

Although they have been away from Daming for four years, it does not mean that they no longer understand the situation of Daming.

The importance of the tea and horse market is not limited to officials, even ordinary people know some of it, although Qian Yong and the three of them don't know much, but they also know its importance.

Now, Zhu Gaoxu is willing to hand over this matter to them, which means that the trust in them has reached the highest point that ordinary people can achieve.

"His Royal Highness King Xie Han trusts!" Qian Yong and the three of them were indescribably excited at the moment.

Although they were willing to help Zhu Zhanyan get these seeds back because of Zhu Zhan's kindness to them at the beginning, if there was a return, where would anyone not be willing?

The difference is that some people will be more desperate when they are rewarded, while others will go down the wrong path.

"You deserve it." Zhu Gaoxu smiled and encouraged them.

"The three of you still have a lot of time to enjoy what you've worked so hard for, but not the others."

"This time, the Han Wangfu sent some things to the families of the remaining one hundred and ninety-three people, including food and silver, and there will be them every year in the future."

"I didn't let the three of you send it, because you will have better ones in the future, don't mind."

"His Royal Highness the King of Han is serious!" Qian Yong and the three of them were a little flustered at the moment.

"I don't dare to ask for these, originally we went to sea with the treasure fleet to repay the kindness of His Royal Highness the Prince, and now it is already His Highness's reward to get these."

Zhu Gaoxu smiled very satisfied when he heard this.

It seems that his son's eyes are very good, and he picks people who can be trusted.

At least for now.

——

Ying Tianfu, Imperial Palace, Wenhua Palace.

Xie Jin and Huang Huai were looking at Zhu Gaochi eagerly, waiting for him to make a decision, while Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi were standing aside with calm faces.

As for Zhu Gaochi...... The expression on his face was very calm, not at all.

The reason for today's situation is that the news from Yunnan has come over.

To say that on the day of the harvest, although Zhu Gaoxu made it perfectly, this grain was planted in the field after all, although there were people around to guard it, but it was not impossible to spread it at all.

For example, Jin Yiwei.

In addition, those civil officials have been keeping a close eye on Yunnan's every move since the Jiaozhi incident, plus last year the imperial court sent some civil officials to assist the Han Wangfu in governing Yunnan.

So, although it is difficult, there is always a way to get the news.

After all, Zhu Gaochu was just to prevent someone from stealing food, but he didn't prevent the news from not being able to get out, because Zhu Zhanyu had told him before he left that there was no need to guard against those civil officials like a thief.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you can't hesitate!" Seeing that Zhu Gaochi didn't speak for a long time, Huang Huai opened his mouth to urge.

"Yunnan got this thing! We're in danger in the future! ”

"Oh?" Zhu Gaochi raised his head when he heard this, and squinted at Huang Huai.

"Say, who's in danger?"

The Wenhua Hall fell silent, and no more words came out.

In life, you should never think too much of yourself, maybe you have reached a very high position, maybe you have the power of life and death of countless people, but you have to know that you are just a chess piece.

What is important to you is not necessarily important to others.

I think it's almost slowed down, wait two days, I'll have a wave......
