Chapter 838 The crime of deceiving the king
The man who crawled out of the mud was no different from the usual farmer who worked on the land. His appearance was dark and his figure was rough. He looked more like a farmer than a farmer. Liu Xi squinted his eyes and looked at him. Looking at the young man in front of him, it is obvious that the emperor has recognized him. Isn't this unattractive, stuttering man just his own farm servant?

"Mr. Deng? It turns out that these cultivated lands belong to you." Liu Xi said with a smile. Deng Ai nodded quickly and said, "It's me. My. I don't know the guest... The guest is coming, please allow me to accept it." Pack it up and tidy it up."

Qi Yue was a little confused, looking at the farmer in front of him, frowning, who is this?Why does it look like the emperor still recognizes him?Deng? ?
Liu Xi suddenly turned his head, looked at Qi Yue, and asked with a smile, "Qi Yue, you didn't recognize him?"

"Going home, master, the servants did not recognize it."

"Hahaha, I didn't even recognize it. Don't just stand here and feed a horse. You have to hurry later!"

"Please!"

Liu Xi then walked to Deng Ai's side, and Deng Ai stood beside him, Liu Xi said with a smile: "You don't have to clean up, it's good, come on, let's find a place, sit down and have a rest Yes." Liu Xi looked around, found a field ridge, and sat down casually. Deng Ai was shocked and tried to speak, but Liu Xi grabbed his arm and was also pulled to sit down.

"Hey, I didn't expect that my Pu She has fallen to such a point that I need to go to the ground to support myself. It seems that the salary of this temple should be increased. Even if Pu She is like this, the county magistrate Isn't that just eating the bark?" Liu Xi said with emotion.

"Your Majesty...it's not so...so, I'm...yes...", Deng Ai's face flushed red with anxiety, but he was still speechless, with more and more sweat on his forehead, Liu Xi asked: "Do you want to Earn extra money to subsidize the family?"

"The minister is trying... a new farming... method."

"So that's how it is." Liu Xi nodded, and said helplessly, "If you want to try a new farming method, you can send officials to do it. Is there no one in the farm house? You need a dignified servant." Come to the ground in person? Why bother?"

"me.."

"Okay, if you can do it yourself, you can also see that you attach great importance to farming and mulberry. Moreover, your polder method is indeed good. I have seen that compared with the surrounding farmlands, this place is indeed rich in vegetation. , the weeds are nearly half the height of a person, which shows that you are still very caring." Liu Xi said with a smile, but Deng Ai always felt a little uncomfortable when he heard these words.

The emperor's words seemed to be praise, but they seemed to be sarcasm.

"I originally wanted to transfer you to the army, but now it seems that you have done a good job in farming. Do you have any other discoveries?"

"Wheat and rice rotation. This is.. is.. the method of some counties and counties in the Yangyu area", Deng Ai explained it to Liu Xi with difficulty, and Liu Xi listened carefully. Deng Ai really discovered it from the folks. There are quite a lot of farming techniques. Because of the lack of deep exchanges between regions, the farming methods in many regions are different, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. There are also southern regions where farming techniques have not been well developed.

The two chatted for a long time, and then Liu Xi stood up with a smile, took Deng Ai to the farmland, and even helped them weed the weeds himself. Deng Ai didn't dare to let the emperor work hard, but he couldn't persuade him. Living in the emperor, he could only see that the brand-new clothes of the emperor were also stained with mud. The two had been busy in the cultivated land for a long time, and they also talked for a long time.

Although Deng Ai stutters, he also has the benefit of speech. He speaks concisely and straightforwardly. Liu Xi has listened to his advice on agriculture and mulberry. Seeing the sky getting late, Qi Yue couldn't sit still. He spoke several times. Only then did Xi bid farewell and leave with a smile on his face, bid farewell to everyone here, and rushed towards the county.

Sitting in the carriage, the smile on Liu Xi's face disappeared instantly.

"What a coincidence, when I went out of the county, I just happened to see the servant of the court going down to the ground in person, and the location happened to be in my way. Well, it was a good way to show me the diligence of the officials in the temple. ", Liu Xi squinted his eyes, with a cold light in his eyes.

When he returned to the palace, the Son of Heaven had a gloomy expression on his face, and he did not hide it any more. He entered the Hall of Houde and found Yuan Shang directly. He wanted to greet, but the emperor sat directly on the bed, frowned, and ignored the queen. The queen saw the anger of the emperor, and slowly sat beside him, stretched out her hand, and held his hand. She smiled and asked, "Which one is so bold as to dare to provoke my husband?"

"Xun Yu."

"Ah?", the queen was stunned for a moment, before asking: "Mr. Xun Ling? But your majesty and him, how could he provoke your majesty?"

Liu Xi said angrily: "This guy put on a good show for me!"

"how do I say this?"

"He saw that I didn't pay attention to the performances of the farmer's house a few times before, so he revealed my itinerary, arranged for the servants of the farmer's house to shoot, and deceived me!" Liu Xi gritted his teeth and said angrily: " The crime of deceiving the emperor, the crime of deceiving the emperor, all my life, I hate the deception of others the most, I never thought that, the majestic three orders, I would do it like this, could it be that I am treated as a three-year-old child?!"

"His Majesty.."

"Hmph, I'll find him tomorrow and let him go back to his hometown. I'm already in my [-]s, and these veterans still treat me like a child to fool me!"

"Your Majesty is right. For such a stupid person, it's better not to do three orders."

"Oh? Stupid?"

"Yeah, as San Ling, he should know that His Majesty can't hide the world's affairs, but he knows this, and he still plans to deceive His Majesty. It can be seen that he is also a fool, so it's good to change it. Ah." The queen said seriously.

Hearing what the queen said, Liu Xi hesitated, thought for a moment, and then said: "This fellow, he knows that I will blame him, he."

"Isn't that a fool? Why do you do this when you know His Majesty will blame you?"

"Hehe, he wants me to pay more attention to Nongsang, and to focus more on this guy. Wouldn't it be better to be blunt? Why do these things?"

"That's right, he has come to the Hall of Houde several times these days, and he doesn't know how to talk about these things!" As the queen said, Liu Xi was stunned, and suddenly looked a little embarrassed. After a moment of silence, he shouted angrily: "It's just a Stupid!", the queen smiled lightly, although the emperor was scolding, a smile appeared on his face, obviously, he had let go of it.

"Then how will His Majesty punish him tomorrow?"

"He is also for the big man. Nongsang really should be taken seriously. Food is the most important thing for the people. The polder is good. The big man has built countless water conservancy projects, which can be put to greater use. I will not follow him Forget about it, just this time, if there is a next time, I will never forgive him again!", Liu Xi said, and then looked at the queen who was laughing aside.

"Hahaha", Liu Xi suddenly laughed, shook his head and said, "Queen, I just realized that you have worked so hard to persuade me."

"Your Majesty is a wise king. Even if I don't say anything, I won't punish Shang Shuling tomorrow."

"Why?"

"Because His Majesty loves talents the most, His Majesty is absolutely unwilling to deal with him."

"Hahaha, you're right. To govern the world, the most important thing is talent. Isn't the great cause of the ancestors just relying on the talented people under his command? Oh, I love these people to death, and I wish there were more of them. How could you be willing to deal with them? Sigh, this is also my only weakness, I indulge them too much!"

The two chatted for a long time before the queen said: "By the way, my father sent someone to look for me today, saying that he wanted to find some playmates for Hu'er. I didn't dare to agree, and said that I would give an answer tomorrow."

"Oh? Playmates? Which child doesn't have a playmate? If you want to find a few playmates, then look for them. Does this matter also need to be considered?"

"Your Majesty, who was your childhood playmate? Could this be decided at will?"

Liu Xi was taken aback, smiled wryly, and said, "The queen is right, but where can I find someone like Kong Ming Zhongda for him?"

"Your Majesty has no one to choose?"

"There are a few, but Hu'er is still too young to be suitable. When he grows up and establishes the East Palace, he can find those people... Yao'er, and Zhan'er , there is Jiang Wei in the military science... Well, unfortunately, Deng Ai and Cao Chong have already served as servants, and the child of Zhong Yao's family is about to be born."

"Is it going to be born soon?" The queen widened her eyes and asked, "Your Majesty, have you already made an appointment with this unborn child?"

"Hahaha, that kid will be a good talent, if he is trained, he can make a career out of it."

"But the unborn child, how does His Majesty know about it??"

"Don't dare to hide it from the queen. I have been gifted since I was a child. I can tell at a glance who will do something and who won't." Liu Xi said with a smile. The queen glanced at him, apparently not believing it. His words directly asked: "Then what should we do now?"

"The child can play with whomever he wants, he is still young, there is no need"

The queen nodded, and said just now: "Besides, Changling is not young anymore, should your majesty think about it?" When Liu Xi heard this, he immediately became unhappy, and hurriedly argued: "She is still young, so it is time for you to think about it." What are you rushing to marry her for?!"

"Your Majesty. At her age, I have been married to Your Majesty for four years."

"Alas", Liu Xi sighed, thought for a long time, and then said: "Then there will be a queen, the queen can make up her own mind, if there is a good family, well, let me take a look first, and then we can talk about it."

"Thank you."
