Song Chen turned around and looked at Zhang Cheng, nodded, and then explained seriously: "The millet field in front of me is like an army formation, which reminds me of the days in Xinye. I was one of the villagers at that time. The rules are harvesting, and you don’t need to guess to know whose masterpiece it is.”
Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wen were very shocked after hearing this, and thought that Song Chen was originally from Li Shu?I really don't know what he went through to become what he is now.
"General Song asserts that this is a military settlement? I wonder who the last farmer you mentioned is? He is not an ordinary person who can manage the settlement in an orderly manner." Zhang Cheng asked curiously.
"Deng Ai, Deng Shizai, now captain of Changshui." Song Chen replied lightly.
"That's not..." Zhang Wen hesitated to speak.
Song Chen smiled slightly: "Hui Shu's guess is right. He is Fujun's disciple, and he has won the key to the Fujun's farmland. His Majesty used him to farm in Guanzhong just right, and he was able to restore the former vitality in a few years. This is a great man's fortune."
"I heard that Mr. Fu paid special attention to agricultural production in the past. He used to open farms in Linwu, Quanling and other places, but when he arrived in Jiaozhou, he turned to business. I didn't expect his disciples to pick up farming. Is this a kind of inheritance?" People at that time looked down on business, and Zhang Cheng expressed regret in his words, mistakenly thinking that Lantian had forgotten his original intention, but fortunately he left his disciples to inherit the mantle, which can be regarded as mending the past.
Song Chen was startled when he heard this, and then he raised his head and laughed loudly: "From farming to business? Zhong Si Miao Ye, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan both used to farm. Do you know the difference between Fu Jun and them?"
"I would like to listen to you." Zhang Cheng sincerely clasped his fists.
Song Chen said mysteriously: "The method of farming can be imitated, but the seeds in the field cannot be imitated. What makes the Lord Fu so powerful is that he can cultivate high-yield, disease-resistant grain seeds."
Chapter 892 Blessing the Later Generation Lan Ziyu
"Cultivate grain?" Zhang Cheng looked at Zhang Wen with wide eyes, thinking that the number one person in Yangzhou now has the skills of an old farmer?
Song Chen pointed to the millet field in front of him, and said meaningfully: "Your Fu's proficiency in farming is unmatched in the world today. Although the corn here is so strong, it is the result of the Lord's cultivation for many years. You can know when the Lord started to cultivate it." Cultivate millet?"
"When?" Zhang Wen was full of doubts.
Song Chen stretched out three fingers, and replied solemnly: "30 years ago, Mr. Fu was still a boy, and he started farming in Xiaopei. It can be said that the high-yield corn in various places, the mother seed is all from Mr. Fu's hometown. "
"30 years ago?" Zhang Wen swallowed his saliva, thinking that he was just born at that time, and immediately thought of it when he was shocked, "Fujun was able to breed when he was young? Could it be that he encountered some adventures? Just like the ancestors' 圯Bridge three shoes'?"
"It's unknown." Song Chen shook his head lightly.
Zhang Chenglu had to think for a while, and sighed: "No wonder Your Majesty relies so much on the Fujun. With such a genius who silently guarantees the grain production, he can stand out from the crowd and achieve today's imperial career..."
"This is God's will." Zhang Wen nodded in agreement, but the topic suddenly turned cold: "But it's a pity..."
"What a pity?" Zhang Cheng asked.
Zhang Wen replied solemnly: "The climate in our south is humid, and most of the people mainly grow rice. Even if the high-yield corn seeds are introduced, they can only be used as supplementary food."
"Yes..." Zhang Cheng was slightly disappointed.
Seeing that the two people were worrying about nothing, Song Chen couldn't help laughing secretly while sitting on the horseback. He said to himself that the master sent the eldest son to destroy Linyi in fifteen days, not only to take back that bit of land, but also to select and breed improved rice in Jingnan. species, now there are more magical Champa rice, and it is estimated that it will be promoted to Jiangdong in the near future, and your jaws may drop in shock at that time.
Before things were done, Lan Tian basically wouldn't make a big deal out of it, so Song Chen didn't intend to tell the two of them, but his inadvertent disdain was noticed by the seasoned Zhang Cheng.
"General Song seems to have a different opinion? Could it be that the lord has something about rice seeds..." Zhang Cheng didn't continue in the middle of the conversation, saying that Lantian is now guarding one side, even if he wants to, he can't take care of farming. figure it out.
"Haha, you two only know about it but don't know why. I have already said that Fu Jun is the best in the world in terms of farming. He once said that one person's power is limited after all, so he set up an agricultural college on Zhuya Island and cultivated it in the form of a school. Produce more 'Deng Shizai', although Fu Jun seldom goes to the fields now, he never relaxes in farming." Song Chen answered in a general way.
Zhang Cheng nodded frequently, bowed his hands and said: "It seems that our understanding of Fu Jun is still too one-sided. Thank you, General Song, for answering questions."
Song Chen nodded slightly in response, but Zhang Wen gave different opinions, "Guangzhou Academy and Medical School can understand, but Zhuya Island is mostly an uncivilized place. Is there anyone going to set up an agricultural school there? Students What do you learn every day? There shouldn’t be many classics on agriculture in the world, right?”
"Hui Shu underestimated the appeal of the prefect. Counties and counties are vying to send students to study agriculture. Because the conditions of agricultural colleges are limited, students need to be selected. The students are no different from farmers in daily life. They come from the sun. Rest at sunset, just observe and record when the crops are growing, and finally, through a large amount of data analysis, summarize efficient planting methods and cultivate better food seeds. As time goes by, there will be more and more agricultural classics, It’s just that it was all summed up by the predecessors, and later people checked and filled in the gaps.” Song Chen must explain.
"Agricultural students write their own books? It's unbelievable..." Zhang Wen laughed dumbfounded.
"There are many varieties grown in Zhuya Agricultural College, right?" Zhang Cheng continued to ask for advice.
Song Chen replied softly: "Zhuya Island has plenty of sunlight, which is very suitable for the growth of various crops. In addition to rice, wheat, millet and other staple foods, there are also crops, bean and other supplementary foods, and of course there are all kinds of fruits and vegetables, as long as the common people can eat them." Yes, there will be someone to cultivate them."
"This... really benefits future generations..." Zhang Cheng felt more and more that Lan Tian's image was stalwart, while Zhang Wen was glad that Sun Quan was driven away.
"Let's continue on the road. We will not be far from Chang'an when we get down to the plains. Your Majesty should be looking forward to the news from Jiangdong." Song Chen said and urged the group to hurry.
Zhang Wen nodded and patted his chest, and responded with a smile: "I'm going to see His Majesty soon, and I'm very excited. If there is any disrespect during the meeting, you two must remember to mention it."
"Hui Shu said too much." Zhang Cheng smiled and rode his horse forward.
The mission was running along the official road, and the golden millet fields on both sides were far away. Liu Bei collected Guanzhong and had a good year. The summer grain was planted after the heavy rain in Luoyang. Natural disasters did not affect the harvest at all. Both Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wen believed that Liu Bei was destined Return, it is a wise choice to surrender and surrender.
Not long ago, Zhuge Jin went to Chang'an to seek peace. All the kings and ministers of the Han Dynasty knew that Sun Quan would be defeated, but they didn't know how long it would take. Some people guessed that it would take half a year, and others guessed that it would take three months. Liu Bei used Zhuge Liang's name to keep Zhuge Jin in the capital to wait. result.
When the mission appeared on Chang'an Avenue, it meant that Yangzhou had been pacified, and the courtiers all lamented the speed of Lantian.
Liu Bei then summoned all the officials to gather in the Xuanshi Hall of Weiyang Palace, grandly received the diplomatic mission from Yangzhou, and invited Zhuge Jin to go to the hall to listen to the government. When he saw Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wen, he couldn't help but think four words Word: Jiangdong is dead.
Weiyang Palace is an important palace in the imperial city. It is the place for successive emperors' enthronement ceremonies, national sacrifices, and important court meetings. It is more magnificent and solemn than Sun Quan Jianye's Wu Palace.
Yongliang has not yet settled down, Liu Bei's children and wife are still in Chengdu, and they have no plans to take over to Chang'an for the time being, and Liu Bei's mind is all about recovering the country after he ascended the throne, and he did not pay more nobles, wives, and concubines like Cao Cao, his father and son, and Sun Quan Flooded in the harem, so that the Jiaofang Palace is still empty.
Liu Bei had tasted the hardships of the people and understood that he could not indulge in pleasure after he ascended the throne. In order to reduce the number of palace people in the inner courtyard of the palace, the palaces such as Changle and Mingguang were left idle, and they usually rested in Weiyang Palace.
The court meeting in the Xuanshi Hall, led by Situ Pangtong and Zhang Fei, the general of chariots and riders, and dozens of civil servants and military generals surrounded by the emperor Liu Bei who sat facing south, saw the face of Long Guangbao under the crown, the 62-year-old His appearance is better than Sun Quan's complexion.
Song Chen, Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Wen stood upright, and presented Lantian's memorandum and the list of officials who asked for rewards after the court meeting ceremony.
Liu Bei watched the memorial to Long Yan Dayue, leaned over and said to Zhuge Jin with a smile, "Ziyu should be mentally prepared, right? Sun Zhongmou has only been in a corner for a few days, so he took the remnants of his troops into exile on September 23. The Wu State you were loyal to no longer exists." gone."
"How could it be so fast? The governor is also defeated?" Zhuge Jin looked at the two cards in the hall, and said to himself that I haven't fulfilled the king's order yet, why the king of Wu has run away, then who should I call back?
Chapter 893 Eat melons and eat myself
"Haha, the son-in-law will destroy Linyi on the [-]th, and Ziyu will destroy Jiangdong in three months. If the father and son of the Lan family don't move, they will be like a thunderbolt. If Sun Zhongmou takes the initiative to provoke, how can An Neng be undefeated?" Liu Bei stroked his beard and laughed.
"This is not my original intention of the King of Wu. It is actually because Lu Ziheng and General Lan had a gap, and they speculated about the king's intentions randomly and caused a misunderstanding..." Zhuge Jin lost all confidence in the end.
Seeing that Zhuge Jin did not give up, Liu Bei waved his hand to Song Chen and said, "Song Qing, tell me about the important situation in Jiangdong, Ziyu still has illusions."
"Wei." Song Chen clasped his fists and nodded, turned to Zhuge Jin and said, "Before Mr. Ziyu went to Chang'an, Lu Fan defeated Yichun and killed himself. After losing the battle, he sought to flee far away, and on September 23, he took [-] soldiers and civilians into exile at sea, and Yangzhou was defeated."
"Where's the governor?" Zhuge Jin asked.
"General Lu defeated Jiang Cheng after the Yangtze River Water War. General Gan persuaded Wu generals Lu Ju and Luo Tong to surrender. General Lu then surrendered and helped General Gan quell Wuhui. Huishu (Zhang Wen)." Song Chen added two fingers after answering, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wen both nodded in response.
"Bo Yan is not a man who is greedy for life, how could he surrender so sloppily? Could it be that General Lan is threatening his family?" Zhuge Jin felt his head was about to explode. Lu Xun's defection meant that Sun Quan had no barriers anymore, and the defeat was as it should be.
Song Chen shook his head lightly, "General Lan acted openly and aboveboard, how could he do such a lowly thing? It was actually Sun Quan who wanted to kill him with poisoned wine, but it was a pity that the revelation made General Lu chill, and that's why he surrendered."
"Wu Wang, how could he..." Zhuge Jin didn't believe it.
Lan Tian didn't make it clear in the memorial, and the officials in the hall couldn't help whispering after hearing it, Zhang Fei took the lead to stand up and shout: "People's words are born from the heart, and that blue-eyed child is disgusting. It turns out that the heart is so sinister. How much wronged did you suffer? If I were him, I would rebel."
Liu Bei sighed: "I heard that Lu Boyan was a modest gentleman, but in the end Sun Quan moved him to kill him. I feel bad for him just thinking about it."
Zhang Fei then suggested to Zhuge Jin: "Mr. Ziyu, have you seen the consequences of being loyal to Sun Quan? Wouldn't everyone be happy to stay with the prime minister to assist His Majesty?"
"Your Majesty, the three generals, this rumor is contrary to common sense, Jin thinks it cannot be taken seriously..." Zhuge Jin was still deceiving himself.
"How could Song Qing's words be true? If Lu Boyan hadn't wanted to help Ziyu stabilize Jiangdong, I would have called him to Beijing to have an interview with you. However, Ziyu's family is still building a business, and we can go back with them when the time comes. Right and wrong Are you clear? Besides, Mr. Jia’s son-in-law is right in front of you, so he won’t lie to you, right?” Liu Bei looked at Zhang Cheng after speaking.
Zhang Cheng was named by Liu Bei, so he quickly turned around and explained: "Uncle, although my son-in-law didn't hear General Lu say it himself, it is indeed rumored in the army, and it is extremely credible..."
Zhuge Jin ignored Zhang Cheng, but was overjoyed and confirmed to Liu Bei: "Your Majesty really wants to let the minister go back to Jiangdong?"
Liu Bei nodded slightly, and said meaningfully: "Since Ziyu has pacified Yangzhou, it's better for Ziyu to go back to reunite with his family first. Mr. is full of knowledge and can contribute to the country. When you figure it out, come back to Chang'an to find me, or find me on the spot." According to Ziyu's arrangement, if the master has other ideas, I will ask Kong Ming to ask for it."
"Uh... Jin saved it..." Zhuge Jin bowed and thanked.
Liu Bei then exchanged greetings with Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wen, and found that they were both talented and learned people, so he intended to keep them in the capital to listen to them.
After a while, Liu Bei called Chen Dao into the Proclamation Hall and said: "Uncle Zhi, Zhong Si and Hui Shu have come from Yangzhou to work hard, and I will send them to the post house for a while, and I will hold a banquet to welcome the wind in the evening."
"Wei." Chen Dao embraced his orders.
After hearing the order, the three bowed and were about to leave, Liu Bei stopped Song Chen again and said, "Song Qing stay and talk."
"Wei." Song Chen stood still and clasped his fists.
"Your Majesty, I too..." Zhuge Jin hesitated to speak when he left the class.
"Ziyu should go too. You son-in-law Weng haven't seen each other for a long time, so you should have a lot to talk about." Liu Bei waved his hand lightly.
Zhuge Jin hurriedly saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After the "outsider" from Jiangdong left the Xuanshi Hall, Liu Bei looked around and stroked his beard and sighed: "Ziyu occupied Yangzhou with lightning speed, and let Gan Xingba enter Ruxu. Cao Pi has transferred the Huainan Army back, and the pressure on Yunchang and Tongguan has suddenly increased." Minus, I can finally go back and deal with Cao Zhen."
"When will Your Majesty send troops? The veteran is willing to be the vanguard." Huang Zhong was the first to stand up.
"How can I forget you, General Zhengxi?" Liu Bei laughed.
Situ Pangtong immediately went out to remonstrate: "Your Majesty, the remnant Cao army in Yongliang is rootless duckweed. In fact, there is no need to rush to conquer. It's okay to rest for a while. Now that General Blue has conquered Yangzhou and threatened Huainan, Cao Pi has no spare time to take care of it." Cao Zhen, the situation in Jiangdong is very complicated, and the internal struggles have been turned upside down, but now it may not be stable if it is changed, and if it is not handled well, it may cause trouble."
"General Lan asked Er Zhang to meet His Majesty, which also confirmed Pang Situ's analysis from the side." After Weiwei Chen Zhen finished speaking, he asked Song Chen: "General Song, I wonder how General Lan will deal with the Sun family?"
Song Chen clasped his fists and replied: "Except for Sun Deng and Sun Luban who ran away with their father, the remaining wives, concubines and children of Sun Quan's lineage were all controlled in the Wu Palace. Sun Ce's three daughters all married into wealthy families, and his son Sun Shao was also locked up In Jin Jianye Mansion, Sun Yi's only son, Sun Song, was beheaded by the consort. The rest of the collateral descendants of Sun Qiang and Sun Jing, as well as the married women, were not held accountable. Dispose of it, and ask Your Majesty to order it."
"The Sun family in Jiangdong is really flourishing, but it's a pity that Sun Quan was attached to the rebel Cao family, and was eventually uprooted by Zi Yu." After sighing, Liu Bei immediately asked the officials: "Sun Quan abandoned his wife and children and went into exile. I think there is no possibility of turning around in this life. , Qing and others think how to deal with it?"
Shangshu Deng Zhi came out of the class and said: "The Sun family has been in Jiangdong for decades, and the relationship with the local gentry is intricate. If your majesty wants to deal with it leniently, you should move out of other places to destroy their roots."
"Is there any more?" Liu Bei continued to ask.
Wang Mou of the Shaofu said: "Your Majesty has ascended the throne as the emperor, and the harem is still empty. Why not choose a few Shuxians to fill the harem? This will not only show the emperor's mind, but also appease the Sun family. It is the best of both worlds." "
"It must not be done. Your Majesty is the lord of ten thousand chariots. How can you imitate Cao thief and accept Sun Quan's wives and concubines?" Lai Gong was the first to jump out to object.
"Lai Taichang, please don't misunderstand. Although Sun Quan's wife and concubine are remnant flowers, his two daughters are still young. Why can't Your Majesty enter the palace as a beautiful woman?" Wang Mou asked Song Chen after speaking: "General Song, how young is Sun Quan's daughter?"
"Uh... the eldest daughter Sun Luban is married, the second daughter Sun Luxian has just reached the age of Ji, and the youngest daughter Sun Luyu is only ten years old..." Song Chen answered truthfully.
Wang Mou was overjoyed after hearing this, and quickly cupped his hands to suggest: "Your Majesty, Sun Luxian's youth is just right, why not accept it?"
Liu Bei was taken aback when he heard that, how could he set himself on fire?Without waiting for Lai Gong to refute, he quickly interrupted: "Absurd, how should the people in the world think of me if I accept a girl at such an age?"
"Your Majesty is the lord of the world. Only when the harem is empty will people say it. Didn't Cao Cao accept many girls in the past? Your Majesty will stop Youyou's mouth by accepting beautiful girls." Wang Mou continued to fight.
"It's not right for me to accept Mrs. Sun, but wouldn't it be a violation of morals to accept Sun Quan's daughter again? This remark must never be mentioned again." Liu Bei pressed the dragon chair to set the tone.
Chapter 894 Leave it to my old Zhang to deal with
Wang Mou was speechless when he heard this. The Shaofu managed private property and life for the royal family, but Liu Bei practiced frugality when he ascended the throne and did not save private property. Chatting with Pang Tong, Fazheng and other courtiers, he felt that it was inappropriate.
In the past, when Liu Bei went to Shu to stabilize the situation, he accepted the widowed Mrs. Wu under the advice of Fazheng. Why is the same situation not working now?Perhaps the relationship between myself and His Majesty is not close enough?Wang Mou looked at Fazheng expectantly, but the other party did not respond to his fiery eyes.
"Your Majesty, although Wang Shaofu's words are biased, it is also out of consideration of the royal family's face. Now that the Yongliang area is relatively stable, we can bring Mrs. Sun and Wu, as well as the crown prince, to the capital, so that we can stop gossip from the outside world." Lai Gong acts as a peacemaker to resolve the embarrassing situation.
After Wang Mou heard this, he said in his heart that the old fox brought the two wives to the capital on the surface, but the real intention was for the prince.
Wang Mou thinks that Taichang is the head of the Nine Ministers who is in charge of the etiquette of the ancestral temple. In order to protect the rights and interests of the prince, the current emperor should not be "suffered". Empress Gan has passed away for several years.
Seeing that Liu Bei was hesitating, Wang Mou cupped his hands again and said: "Your Majesty, I agree with what Lai Taichang saw. The two ladies can fill the harem when they come to the capital, and they can also properly arrange Sun Quan's wives and concubines. Madam Sun and Sun Quan have brothers and sisters. Take care of these people, and then show your majesty's broad mind."
Wang Mou himself had no selfish intentions. This suggestion was originally intended to be for the country, but he also wanted to give Lai Gong some eye drops, and said in his heart that he should not only focus on the prince, but Liu Bei didn't appreciate it at all.
When Lai Gong made a suggestion, Liu Bei on the dragon chair was still a little moved, but what Wang Mou said later touched a minefield, and the emperor's face collapsed in an instant. Because of Sun Quan's frequent backstabs, Mrs. Sun's identity is very sensitive. Liu Bei In order to keep the mother and daughter alienated deliberately, if Sun Quan's wife and children were taken to the capital, wouldn't it be troublesome?
In the year of Empress Gan’s death, rumors were flying all over Chengdu. Wu Yi’s brothers and sisters were so frightened that they expressed their loyalty frantically. Sun Shangxiang was lucky to be protected by Gan Qian. Liu Bei was furious at that time, and the whole city was arrested. It also laid the bane for the Nanzhong rebellion.
"Although Guanzhong is temporarily stable, Chengdu is thousands of miles away. If there is any mistake on the way, who can take responsibility? It is better to wait for the prime minister to calm down the Nanman, and then escort the wife and the crown prince back to the capital to return to their orders." Liu Bei replied lightly.
"But..." Wang Mou is a native of Hanjia in Yizhou (the area around today's Ya'an), and Hanjia County is adjacent to Yuexi County (the area around today's Xichang). Difficult to do, to completely wipe out those rebels in the Nanman, it will not be achieved in a short time, Zhuge Liang may still be preparing.
Liu Bei interrupted Wang Mou, then waved his hand lazily: "That's it for today, I'm a little tired, you guys go away first."
"only."
All the ministers in the hall bowed solemnly to the king at the same time, and then withdrew from the Xuanshi Hall one after another. After Wang Mou paid his respects, Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something and quickly chased him out.
Wang Mou caught up with Lai Gong on the steps outside the hall, and said seriously: "Too often, please take a step to speak."
Lai Gong guessed that Wang Mou wanted to continue the conversation in the hall, so he followed him to a corner outside the Xuan Room without hesitation, and asked with a smile on his face, "What's the matter with Yuan Tai?"
"Too often in charge of the etiquette of the ancestral temple, you should know what the royal family should look like, but it has been several months since your majesty ascended the throne, and the harem is still empty, and there are no concubines to sleep in. Such a big loss of the emperor's dignity, you and I should advise your majesty. Your Highness obstructing it?" Wang Mou's voice was filled with reproach.
Lai Gong replied nonchalantly: "Your Majesty is the Holy Lord of the Ming Dynasty. The world is uncertain at this time, and it will be more ambitious not to expand the harem. Why should Yuan Tai be so persistent? Your Majesty's ambition is to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty. How can he be hindered by beauty? Wait until the country is restored. Return to the unified system, you and I will not be too late."
"Taichang loves the prince, who knows that all the princes in the court? But you can't just think about the prince and make His Majesty suffer?" Wang Mou asked bitterly.
"How does Your Majesty suffer? Only by singing and singing every night can you have the majesty of the emperor? Your Majesty is already sixty years old, can the dragon body experience such exhaustion? Besides, when His Majesty was unsuccessful in the past, he often fell asleep with the two generals Guan and Zhang at night. Now What's wrong with staying with Situ and the Taiwei to talk late at night?" Lai Gong argued hard.
"Singing and singing every night is naturally inappropriate. Is it appropriate to have a harem? Empress Gan has passed away for many years, and Her Majesty cannot be made to compromise just because General Lan is the pillar of the country." Seeing that Lai Gong's argument was extreme, Wang Mou expressed his true thoughts. out.
Lai Gong's head got dizzy when he heard that, and he asked bitterly: "When did Your Majesty compromise? How did it involve General Lan? Yuantai, I find your thinking is very dangerous."
"Hmph, whether what I said is true or not, Taichang naturally knows in his heart that although General Lan is a high-ranking and powerful person, he is also a reasonable and loyal person. If you don't sympathize with His Majesty, I will write to General Lan to persuade His Majesty." Wang Mou said Say something that makes Lai Gong feel unbelievable.
"Heh... If the young mansion can allow General Lan to accept concubines, then I will really admire you." Lai Gong laughed dumbfounded.
"Don't worry too much. Wang Mou's duty is to be righteous to General Lan. He has the titles of Empress Gan and Prince. What worries does he have? Farewell."
