Chapter 318: The Construction Corps is good

The emperor got the immortal grain auspicious, which could relieve the suffering of hunger of all the people, and Lu Bu announced to the subjects of the world, and for a time the Great Xia Gate was full of people who came to kowtow to the Holy Monarch.

In just half a day, more than 100,000 people knelt down and kowtowed outside the Great Xia Gate like an endless stream of flowing water, shouting long live.

Some people even came with their ancestors' spiritual thrones, and some people asked why this was the case, and the man said that if the prosperous world had come decades earlier, where would his uncles and grandfathers still die of hunger.

The Ministry of Household is already making arrangements for the cultivation of potato seedlings, and plans to raise them this autumn and start promoting them in Gyeonggi next spring.

Within two years, it will be extended to all parts of the country to completely solve the food shortage that has plagued the Central Plains Dynasty for thousands of years.

Of course, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, Wen Tongxuan and the two waiters on the left and right studied it, and asked the emperor for the right to use the Huangzhuang in Gyeonggi fifty percent, and borrowed the villagers who had cultivated and planted potatoes in the entire Zhuangzi from the Jia family, and officially started the second season of potato seedling planting.

It is related to the food and satisfaction of thousands of subjects in Great Xia, how can the emperor not attach importance to it. He personally asked the British Duke Zhang Yue to mobilize tens of thousands of forbidden troops and settle in those imperial villages in batches to closely guard the growth of potato seedlings.

It is estimated that the potato would not have imagined that one day it would thrive under the protection of tens of thousands of troops.

Jia Cong finished reading the latest newspaper of the imperial court with tears and laughter, and picked up his hoe to dig and dig in the ground.

The household department left a field of potatoes for the Jia family, and yesterday he hurried back to the capital to get the fold of thanksgiving, and then went out of the city and returned to the Zhuangzi under Shijing Mountain.

The old lady and the girls did not return to Beijing, in the words of the old lady, now the Jia family is a real fire cooking oil, the emperor is using potatoes to unite the people, and it is better for the people of Ningrong and Rongfu to stay outside the city.

Look, as long as it's not about Second Brother Bao, the old lady is really a shrewd person to the bone.

The villagers consciously sent all kinds of game to the courtyard, backed by Shijingshan, this group of fighting men who came down from the battlefield, even if they were old, were also good men who could gallop across horses and wear Yang in a hundred steps.

The old lady has received more than a dozen furs of all kinds these days, all of which are gifts from the farmers to her princess Hejun.

Since the emperor is gathering the hearts of the people in the capital, the Jia family will be happy in the Zhuangzi behind closed doors.

The stage was set up, the flowing water mat was placed, the gate of the courtyard was opened, and the little baby in the Zhuangzi only had to kowtow to the old lady and say auspicious words, and he would be given a silver bill.

Mrs. Xing didn't know who reminded her, and she also went to Jia Cong before going to bed last night, and talked about the relocation and reburial of Jia Cong's biological mother Zheng.

In fact, Jia Cong had no impression of his biological mother, only that the poor woman had a bad body due to dystocia and passed away within a few days.

Now that the mother is more expensive than her son, this maid-born woman was posthumously gifted after her death and became the lady of Yongfeng County, so naturally she can no longer be buried on an inconspicuous hill outside a certain Zhuangzi of the Jia family.

The old lady was still concerned about this, and personally sent someone to ask Mr. Feng Shui to pick a good day to open the tomb, and wrote to the elder of the ancestral land of Jinling, so that the clan could choose a good place on feng shui in the ancestral tomb as the sleeping place of Mrs. Yongfeng County.

As for what identity to use, the old lady also smiled bitterly.

It is the first time since the founding of Great Xia that the concubine was ordered to be the lady of the county.

Forget it, this matter should be a headache for the people in the Ministry of Rites.

Jia Cong brought the sacrifice and went to the small hill alone, without sorrow or joy, and only told his biological mother Zheng about his growth process over the years.

Thinking about it, this poor woman and her real child have already crossed the six realms of reincarnation and returned to a new society of equality and harmony.

Not only did almost all the people in the capital go to Daxiamen, but also many people in Gyeonggi Prefecture came to the capital to kowtow to the emperor and thank him, and prayed that the emperor would give him the seedlings of immortal food as soon as possible, so that they could really live a good life.

The crown prince Liu Hong has already carried a few specially selected potatoes out of Beijing to Shaanxi, preparing to present the potatoes to Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of humanity.

The freshly baked Yongfeng Bo has stayed outside the city and has not returned to Beijing, and even the Jia family, except for the master Jing Da, who returned to the city to sit in the two mansions, the masters of the two mansions, large and small, stayed in the Zhuangzi and lived an idyllic life.

Daiyu hugged Xichun and wiped her face with a soaked handkerchief, the little girl had just eaten a baked potato, and the whole person was like a little flower cat, and she couldn't see everyone's beautiful appearance at all.

"The potatoes are soft and delicious, and they are indeed a good thing."

The old lady spoke highly of the potatoes, probably because she was old, and the softness of the potatoes was more in line with her appetite.

Jia Cong picked out some and specially ate them for the people of the two provinces. Commanded the cook to make several dishes, such as shredded potatoes with vinegar, goose stew with potatoes, mutton stew with potatoes, etc.

These fresh and delicious dishes made the old lady and the girls have a great appetite, and they ate a bowl of rice more than usual.

Zhuangzi's drama was sung for three days, and the flowing water banquet was also set up for three days. Other Zhuangzi in the vicinity all came to Jiajiazhuang to eat and watch the excitement, envying the good fortune of Jiajiazhuang households, and became curious about potatoes.

However, the place where the potatoes are planted is very closely guarded by the farmers, even if it is a singing opera and a water banquet these days, the farmers also spontaneously organize people to guard the potato fields tightly.

In June, the weather changed, and it rained heavily on the 10th day of the first lunar month.

Jia Cong studied in the morning, and in the afternoon he planned to collapse in the house and sleep in the dark, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he heard a quick knock on the door.

"Little Third Master, something happened ......"

……

With the changes in the war in the southwest, the DPRK and China officially punished Shui Rong, Shi Nai, Shi Ding and others who led to the early defeat.

Today's dynasty, the three divisions played the emperor, and asked to win the prince of Beijing County, the marquis of Shi Nai, and the marquis of Shi Ding Zhongjing.

At the same time, Shui Rong, Shi Nai, Shi Ding and others were sentenced to exile ranging from 3,000 li to 6,000 li.

In fact, these punishments are already regarded as merciless to the officials of the three divisions, and it is not terrible to lose a battle, and the imperial court will not deal with the front-line generals because of a defeat.

Whether it is water-soluble or Shi Nai, Shi Ding is not only guilty of improper command, but also the great crime of bullying the king to conceal military information and abandon the city and flee.

The emperor announced in the palace that the two brothers of Shui Rong and Shi Jia were dismissed, but the emperor's treatment of the Shui family was very interesting, and he specially selected a baby who was still nursing from the Shui family branch to inherit the title of King of Beijing County.

"Shui Rong is still a prisoner in South Vietnam, so there is an extra eldest son?"

The old lady is not the slightest interested in the affairs of the Shui family, because the Shi family is not as good as the palace of Beijing County, and the title of the family is still inherited, but the Shi family because of Shi Nai's abandonment of the army and the escape before the battle, the emperor was directly angry.

The inheritance of the two mansions has been severed so far, and it has even affected the future of several children of the Shi family, and they have since become the sons of criminal ministers.

The old lady wiped her tears and said to Jia Cong: "I really answered that sentence, it's not that the time has not come, the sins that their brothers did earlier have finally responded." But Xianglan is innocent, can they find a way to avoid punishment. I'm afraid they'll die in the miasma before they get there. ”

Jia Cong didn't argue with the old lady about whether he was innocent or not, but only said that he would inquire about the situation first.

Because this matter was ordered by the emperor himself, Jia Cong pondered and returned to Beijing early the next morning to go to the palace.

The crown prince Liu Hong was not there, and Jia Cong had to wait outside the Qinzheng Hall to be summoned.

Xia Shouzhong personally came out and invited Jia Cong in, and as soon as he entered the hall, he found that the emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and he was actually teaching the little princess Chun'er to write.

"Third Brother~"

The emperor was a little confused, when did his daughter have a third brother.

When the girl on her lap was about to hug Jia Cong, her face was about to attack as soon as her face darkened.

But the girl recognized this "third brother", and after jumping off her father's lap, she threw herself into Jia Cong's arms and asked, "Third brother, is Sister Xichun here?" ”

Belch~

Jia Cong was also confused, he really wanted to greet the emperor first, but the little princess was too enthusiastic, and she grabbed his clothes and didn't let go.

"The fourth sister is still in Zhuangzi in the suburbs, and she won't be able to come back these days."

"Ah, then can I go and play with the third brother to Sister Xichun?"

The emperor couldn't stand it anymore, so he came over and "snatched" his daughter.

After glaring at Jia Cong, he didn't wait for the seizure, but he saw his daughter's big eyes flashing and looking at him pleadingly.

With a soft heart, the emperor glared at Jia Cong again: "Take Chun'er with you when you go back, and you can send me back after a few days of play." ”

At this moment, the little princess became excited, rubbed the emperor's head, and happily followed the female official to the harem to pack up her things.

The little princess was happy, but the emperor was not happy.

"You don't stay outside the city and study hard, what are you doing in the palace?"

Jia Cong smiled bitterly, bowed down and replied: "The minister is here to intercede with the Shi family, Your Majesty, you also know that the minister's grandmother's surname is Shi." ”

"Humph! Shi Nai, Shi Ding can live, it is already for the sake of your old lady's face. ”

The emperor returned to the throne and sat down, and threw Jia Cong a notebook: "See for yourself, what Shi Nai and Shi Ding have done over the years." ”

Jia Cong took the fold and opened it to see that he almost fainted.

The emperor didn't cut these two goods with one sword, and he really gave the old lady face. The things that came out of these two goods were enough to go to the vegetable market several times.

When Shi Nai and Shi Ding stayed in the capital, they were cautious and did not do anything heinous.

However, during the more than a year that these two men were out of Beijing to take up their posts abroad, they bought and sold official positions, embezzled and accepted bribes, smuggled contraband, embezzled military salaries, privately minted ordnance, and formed parties for personal gain......

There are no less than twenty charges for killing the head alone, and Jia Cong doesn't know how to say words of pleading.

"Bang!"

The more the emperor thought about it, the more angry he became, and he slapped the dragon case and said angrily: "I said why the soldiers and horses of the Shu Diwei Station are so vulnerable, the 30,000 soldiers and horses that Shi Nai brought to Guangxi are actually less than 20,000 soldiers who can fight. You see, this is what the military marquis of the dynasty can do? ”

Rubbish!

Jia Cong scolded secretly in his heart, bowed down and said, "What Your Majesty said is that the minister doesn't know how to measure." ”

"Okay, I also know the temperament of the old lady of your family, give you Uncle Yongfeng a face, and the daughter of the Shi family will be exempted from the crime of exile, you can let people go to the prison to pick up people."

The emperor gave Xia Shouzhong a look, and the big eunuch immediately went out to arrange for someone to pass on the decree.

Jia Cong bowed down and bowed again, shouting the emperor's mercy. As for the several cousins of the Shi family, I'm sorry, but he Jia Cong doesn't have a deep and shallow heart of the Virgin.

The two gentlemen and ministers had a tacit understanding and threw these aside and talked about the promotion of potatoes. Knowing that the cultivated corn was about to be harvested, the Sacred Heart was overjoyed and gave Jia Cong another grace and handed over the family temple sacrifice of the Baoling Marquis Mansion to the old lady.

"With potatoes and corn, in five years at most, the people of Great Xia will have endless food, and the iron cavalry of Great Xia will also have enough grain and grass, and there will be no constraints on expanding the territory."

Jia Cong looked at the emperor who was looking around, and shouted long live.

The emperor was in a good mood, and pulled Jia Cong to scold Fang Xuan on the map. Especially in the newly added Jiaozhi political envoy in the south, the old man of the emperor specifically mentioned one thing.

"Your father has been talking to me recently, saying that it is a new place in Jiaozhi, although the people over there also admire the Celestial Empire, but after all, they are not very relieved, and want the court to move some people over. What do you think of this? ”

This......

In fact, Jia Cong really wanted to say that the hearts of people who are not of my race must be different, but the people of Jiaozhi are now also regarded as the people of the Celestial Empire, so it is not appropriate to say this.

"Back to Your Majesty, it is still very necessary to migrate the people of the Central Plains in the past. The people of Jiaozhi are newly attached, and the people's hearts are unstable. If the imperial court migrated a group of people to the past, it could integrate with the local people, and it could also be regarded as one of the means to defend southern Xinjiang. ”

Jia Cong remembered the policy of his grandfather in his previous life towards returning to Xinjiang, and bowed down and said: "It is best to give money and honor to the retired military households among the generals, and guard the herdsmen for Your Majesty." ”

The emperor immediately became interested and motioned for him to sit down: "Talk about it carefully." ”

"The minister called these military households who migrated to the past the Jiaozhi Construction Corps, and it was best to settle them in the form of military cantonments, serving as soldiers in wartime and serving the people in leisure time......"

Juntun has existed since ancient times, but Jia Cong added a lot of advantages to it from the policy of returning to Xinjiang in his previous life and supplemented and perfected it.

The more the emperor listened, the more interesting he became, and the two of them discussed in the Qinzheng Hall until noon, when they felt hunger in their stomachs, so they had to stop for a while and give food and drink together.

By the time the sun fell after the rain, the sun was already hanging in the western sky.

Jia Cong led a bunch of rewards and escorted a delicate carriage out of the capital slowly.

The emperor was very interested in Jia Cong's construction corps, and he felt that this method could not only be used in Jiaozhi, but also in the Western Regions, Wusizang, and even the grasslands outside the Great Wall.

"By the way, Daban, where is the excerpt that Wang Chenghai sent the day before yesterday? Find out. ”

Xia Shouzhong found a letter in the pile, and the emperor took it, opened it, looked at it, and drew a circle on the map.

"Since the Wa Kingdom admires the grace of heaven and gave me an overseas enclave, let's form another Dongying Construction Corps."

"Emperor Shengming, the old slave thinks this name is very good!"

The emperor laughed, pointed to a few newly drawn circles on the map, and was full of spirit: "Spread the British government, the cabinet, the military department, and the household department into the palace, this matter cannot be delayed, the enclave in Dongying, the bottom is all treasures!" ”
