Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 791

Qi Muyuan didn't wait for Qi Bokun to say some great principles for the country and the people, and he said again: "So, grandfather, why don't you go and talk to the emperor, and take the credit of Du Jinning's idea of ​​opening up roads, prospering commerce, and researching high-yield grains. , and now she has given up on Ding You for Da Song, can I give her an iron coupon of the alchemy book?"

"Danshu iron certificate?" Qi Bokun was stunned.

"That's right, it's the Danshu iron coupon. With it, Du Jinning won't worry that the family will use various excuses to kill her."

"It's impossible." Qi Bokun flatly refused.

He raised his eyes and looked at his grandson: "Xiao Yuan, you have also read a lot of poetry and books, so you know who the person who got the iron coupon of the Dan book is?"

Before Qi Muyuan could speak, he said, "Those are the meritorious ministers who made contributions with him by the founding king, or the military generals who made great contributions to the country's defense against foreign enemies. How many people are there in Iron Coupons?"

"Du Jinning doesn't want the kind of iron coupons that can be handed down from generation to generation. She only needs one chance to avoid death. The emperor can give her an iron coupon with such effects." Qi Muyuan said, "With the high-yield rice she developed How many people can be prevented from starving to death in a disaster year, and how much confidence can Da Song have to resist foreign enemies in the face of foreign invasion? Isn’t this better than those generals who only resisted foreign enemies once or twice? Why can’t they be given? A gold medal for avoiding death?"

Although Qi Bokun felt that what Sun Tzu said was very reasonable, he still felt that this matter was impossible.

"Grandfather, now that Jin Ning is so young, she has only just entered the official career. One idea can bring about earth-shaking changes in the entire southern province; she has developed a rice seed that can fill the treasury with food, and even the world will not be hungry. When she gets older and stronger in the future, will she still have more credit? When everyone in the Song Dynasty appreciates her credit, will the emperor feel that she has made great achievements and will find an opportunity to kill her? Drop it? Are there not many incidents like this in history, such as killing donkeys, crossing rivers and demolishing bridges?"

"In addition, the current emperor is wise and decisive, and can clearly distinguish right from wrong. But what about the next emperor? Du Jinning is still so young, much younger than the emperor. Can you guarantee that the next emperor will not be murdered because of her great achievements?" There are only two grandparents and grandchildren here, so Qi Muyuan has no scruples about speaking.

"This..." Qi Bokun was dumbfounded.

He really can't guarantee it.

"Anyway, there is no gold medal for avoiding death. I will not allow Du Jinning to bear such a reputation for being unfaithful and unfilial. The memorial in your old hand should be delivered back to the emperor." Qi Muyuan said lightly.

"You...you brat!" Qi Bokun was so angry that he wanted to swear a few words, but thinking about how Qi Muyuan seemed to protect Du Jinning like his wife and children, he couldn't swear.

Thinking in another way, if Zhao He dared to deceive Qi Muyuan like this, he would never agree.Qi Muyuan can understand what he said.

"I've already taken over the job. If you refuse now, won't you let me be scolded?" He complained unbalanced in his heart.

In the grandson's heart, his grandfather is not as good as Du Jinning?
"You are always scolded at most, but Du Jinning will lose his life." Qi Muyuan said.

"..." Qi Bokun was so choked that he couldn't speak.

Brat, brat... After cursing a few words in his heart, he finally thought seriously about what Qi Muyuan said.

After a while, he said seriously: "Tell me honestly, is this your idea or Du Jinning's? With such a request, aren't you afraid that the emperor will be dissatisfied with Du Jinning?"

"It's hers, and it's also my idea." Qi Muyuan said, "Look at those aristocratic families, who is not desperately seeking benefits for themselves and their own families? Du Jinning worked tirelessly in Runzhou to study rice seeds for Da Song, Now because of this, I can't go back to fulfill my filial piety, let it become a black spot, can't I not guarantee life and death? She doesn't want to be promoted, and she doesn't want to get rich. A victim, is that too much?"

Qi Bokun was dumbfounded.

"Xiao Yuan." After being silent for a while, Qi Bokun said earnestly, "You also know that this matter is not something that can be accomplished with the emperor's consent. The iron certificate of the Dan Shu needs the consent of the courtiers. But do you think the family will let Du Jinning take it?" Is there an iron certificate in the Danshu? Does she have any merits that she can show, so that the emperor and I can persuade the courtiers?"

"There are always priorities, don't they? Right now, the emperor doesn't have much power, and the courtiers can't be allowed to listen to him. Even if he agrees to your request, it's useless if he can't do it. So you let Du Jinning be a bit more accommodating for the time being, and let the matter go first." Done. When the emperor suppresses the aristocratic family and makes a promise in the court, then ask him for an iron coupon of the alchemy book, and then I will definitely help you speak well."

He paused, and glanced at Qi Muyuan: "If this doesn't work, I can only persuade the emperor to take it easy and let Du Jinning go back to Ding You. His grandfather passed away, and as a grandson, he only has to keep his filial piety for one year. In one year, I think the emperor can afford to wait."

Qi Muyuan was not fooled, and his tone was still calm: "Well, let the emperor make an order to allow Du Jinning to return to his hometown and Ding You."

"..."

Qi Bokun was so angry that he reached out and knocked his grandson on the head: "You are going to piss me off. Are you my grandson or someone from Du Jinning?"

"I'm here to help the manager and not the relative." Qi Muyuan glanced at Qi Bokun, "Grandfather, the surname of Song is Zhao, not Qi. Now the emperor is not in power, so everything depends on you; when he takes power, it will change in the future." No one can predict what will happen. People will change. So, don't always take the Zhao family's affairs as your own. I am your grandson, and you know who Du Jinning is. You just Can't you stand by my side and help me?"

Qi Bokun was speechless again.

He really couldn't complain about his grandson brazenly saying who Du Jinning was.

He rubbed his face, and said helplessly: "Even if I stand on your side, I can only tell you clearly that the family will not agree to give Du Jinning the Danshu iron certificate. There is a possibility."

The power is not in Zhao He's hands, and Qi Muyuan also knows that it is useless to talk about it.

He took a step back: "Then, let the emperor personally write a letter to spare Du Jinning a death penalty. After he takes power, Du Jinning has also researched high-yield rice seeds, and then replace the letter with Danshu iron certificate?"

"Do you really want to do this? With such a condition, Du Jinning may lose his heart. You know, this is a clear distrust of the emperor, and it also shows that he has no power now, and directly pokes him where it hurts." Qi Bokun asked seriously.

"I really have to do this!" Qi Muyuan nodded, looked at Qi Bokun, and said earnestly, "Grandfather, please, you must get the handbook. This matter is very important to me and Du Jinning."

After thinking about it, he added another sentence: "It is also very important to your old man."
