Chapter 155

What is the concept of six thousand kilograms of grain per acre?
The officials thought they were dreaming.

"What did the Taiwei say before?" The officials were in disbelief.

Not to mention everyone, even Zhang Yan's brain was shut down at the moment.

real or fake?

In addition, there are deeper considerations:

Your Highness, without me, the Prime Minister, even knowing about it, created a strange grain yield of six thousand kilograms per mu.

And the Taiwei knew the news first before he, the Prime Minister?

Zhang Yan was horrified to think about the political signal contained in this, and he was stunned.

And Zhao Rui stroked his long beard lightly, nodded and said:
"Your Highness still needs to speak about this matter."

He handed over the topic to Wang Ge, and the officials also looked at King Yue.

"A strange man offered a treasure, claiming that it could strengthen the country. Guyuan didn't believe it at first, so he planted it privately. Now that the harvest is abundant, he took it out and shared it with all my beloved friends." Wang Ge said with a smile.

All the officials had indeed heard about the King of Yue's farming, but the King's land was about a hundred acres. Which official in the court did not have more than this amount?

How much can be grown on a hundred acres of land?

It's not a small fight, Baiguan really didn't take it to heart at first.

But now tell us that this hundred acres of land can produce six thousand catties per mu?
Although His Highness does not attend morning court on weekdays and is slack on government affairs, he is not someone who talks freely.

What's more, even the old and steady Taiwei said so, it is very likely to be true
But how is it possible?
It's not that I don't believe it, but that the yield per mu is 2 catties, and if it is replaced by ordinary rice, it will only yield [-] shi per mu, which is about [-] catties.

The comparison between these two is really shocking and dreamy.

Not to mention other officials, but Zhang Yan's brain is down right now
When Wang Ge saw the bewildered expressions of the ministers, the corner of his mouth raised and he said:

"Seeing is believing. This grain is called red melon. If you have any doubts, you can go to the fields in Xiangyun County and see if the yield per mu is six thousand catties. You will know at a glance."

His Highness has said this. Although he is shocked, it is true or false. Just go and take a look.

What makes people confused is where does this strange red melon plant come from?Why did it pop up all of a sudden?

"Your Highness, I don't know something, so how dare I ask who this strange person who presents the treasure is?" Da Sinong asked.

In Jiuqing, he is in charge of farming.

Able to produce six thousand catties per mu, this is no ordinary strange person, what a saint!
The kind that can write a whole page in a history book.

"Her name is the Immortal Virgin, and she is a strange person from overseas." Wang Ge said with a smile.

One of the things he arranged for Honggua, anyway, Yu Xiaoyu is his man, and the islands are also Wang Ge, so he has no problem saying that.

Wang Ge should also find an opportunity to connect the production links between Haidao and Yue.

The country of Yue has land and population.

The development of the island is very backward and relatively barren, but there are sea gods and blood soul trees, which can produce special fertilizers and cultivation resources. These things need the land and population of Yue to digest.

The country of Vietnam will deny the development of the islanders.

This is Wang Ge's planned production.

However, at this moment, all the officials in the court were very restless, asking where is the island, who is there on the island, what kind of person is the Virgin Mary, and where is it at this moment?
Zhao Rui, the commander-in-chief, was also a little curious. The King of Yue had never told him these things, so he listened attentively.

"The Holy Mother of Immortality is permanently stationed in the harem, coexisting with Gu day and night. Don't be surprised if everyone loves you." Wang Ge said with a smile.

The officials were taken aback for a moment, and then they realized, isn't His Highness just hanging out in the harem these few months?
Doesn't that mean that His Highness has been entertaining foreign guests recently?

No, it’s all in the harem, that’s how you get married!
Thinking of the recent public speculation about the candidate for Princess Yue in private, some people realized that among the three daughters in the harem, one of His Royal Highness’s favorite concubines seems to be of unknown origin, so it’s possible
The ministers and officials brainstormed and discovered many clues.

"Then I would like to ask, Your Highness, if you can invite the Immortal Virgin to come out and see her. Wei Chen and others are very curious." Zhang Yan asked.

He finally recovered from the shock and began to feel uneasy.

Zhang Yan looked at the young king on the throne, as if looking at a stranger.

The King of Yue did so many things without his knowledge?What does he want to do?
A great sense of crisis emerged in Zhang Yan's heart.

Other officials were not as concerned as Zhang Yan. They just wanted to know about the island.

Matters involving foreign countries and marriages are not the private affairs of the King of Yue, but state affairs.

The Virgin of Longevity is not only the concubine of the king of Yue, but also the ambassador of diplomatic relations.

The island is very mysterious, and the strange plants with a yield of [-] jin per mu are also shocking, and everyone is concerned about it.

"The Holy Mother of Eternal Life is shy. My dear friends, why don't you go to the field to see the growth of red melons, and then talk about things related to the Holy Mother." Wang Ge said.

Looking at the restless officials in the hall, the corners of his mouth raised, and he secretly said:

"The Virgin of Longevity is just an appetizer, and there will be successors from the goddess in the future. Although I didn't plan to use my relatives when I first took office, but in the current situation, it is very good to use the power of the woman to play two cards."

The relatives can balance the forces in the court. The best thing is that Wang Ge has extremely high control over these two forces.

A court meeting changed from the original "rearming the country" to discussing "six thousand catties per mu" and "the Virgin of Longevity".

In the next few days, Xiangyun County became the "Holy Tourist Land" of Yue State.

Officials from all walks of life went to inspect the strange plant with a yield of six thousand kilograms per acre and cooked it for tasting.

"Peel off the red skin of red melon, and wrap the meat in it, which is as white as fat. It can be used as rice or fruit food. It is delicious when steamed and grilled. It is very sweet when you eat it at first, but it will become slightly lighter with time."

Officials commented that it tastes good and can satisfy hunger. Although it is not a very fine grain, it can indeed be used as a staple food.

The key is that the yield is huge!

This is not an exaggeration, the Taiwei said that the Yue Kingdom will raise another [-] soldiers is not an exaggeration, it is even very conservative.

As long as the red melons are planted, it will be more than enough to raise [-] soldiers.

"At present, Hengjiang King's rebellion is imminent. In order to protect the country of Yue, it is imperative to expand the army. This red melon can be said to be timely."

This is part of the joy of the officials, but there is also something that makes them worried.

The King of Yue didn't seem to care about having fun and practicing as the officials thought. He was really doing practical things.

Everyone would be happy to be a king who strives hard to govern when the princes are fighting for supremacy, but now it is Emperor Xuan who controls the rule.

It's hard not to think too much about the King of Yue secretly accumulating strength like this.

No, after confirming the output of red melons, Zhang Yan will request to enter the palace to see the king.

Wang Ge agreed.

But as soon as he came in, Zhang Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he saw that the Taiwei was seated on the right side of the hall, Sikong was on the left side, and the king of Yue was in the main seat.

With the three of them here, Zhang Yan somehow felt like he was being "tried by three courts."

The Taiwei platform means that any action taken by the King of Yue will be supported by the highest military force.

Zhang Yan sighed secretly.

In addition to the three men, beside King Yue was a young woman in a feather-blue dress, with many pearl and shell ornaments on her body.

The girl's pretty face had a calm expression, but her neck and the back of her hands showed strange dark green lines.

This is something different from ordinary people.

The girl and the King of Yue sit side by side, meeting the three princes. According to etiquette, this position is generally reserved for the Princess of Yue.

After a little thought, Zhang Yan guessed that this person was the Virgin Mary. "What important matter does the Prime Minister have to report?" Wang Ge asked calmly.

Zhang Yan lowered his head slightly, he came here to test Yue Wang's mind.

When the King of Hengjiang was about to rebel, he suddenly took out six thousand catties of grain per mu, and there were strange people from the island who took refuge in him. What did the King of Yue think?
"Now His Majesty is busy suppressing the rebellion in the north. The ministers are worried about another 'disaster' in the south and the world is in turmoil, so they went to the palace to discuss with His Highness." Zhang Yan asked implicitly.

Is Hengjiang State responsible for the trouble in the south?Or what about Vietnam?
Wang Ge sighed and said:

"It has been five years since Emperor Xuan conquered King Wu to pacify the world. The people have not rested for a long time, but they are about to suffer another war. I lament that the people under the rule are hard to live in peace."

Zhang Yan understood that the King of Yue was against the war and he agreed.

"What Your Highness said is very true."

Wang Ge went on to say:

"Gu believes that in order to quell the troubles in the south, rebels should be punished, and they should restrain themselves, restore etiquette, and abide by the old system. Only then can everyone be in their own place and the seas and rivers be clear."

Zhang Yan frowned slightly, it is no problem to suppress Hengjiang country,

But self-denial and restoration of rituals, what does it mean to restore the old system?
Seeing that the Taiwei and the King of Yue are in harmony, does this ceremony refer to the "gift of enfeoffment".

Does it mean that the King of Yue wants to restore the complete power of the princes and kings and gain true independence and autonomy?

Of course, this is all Zhang Yan's own speculation. The King of Yue did not say that he wanted to rebel and become independent.

Zhang Yan wanted to further confirm the King of Yue's thoughts and asked:
"Suppressing the rebellion is not a matter for the Yue State alone. There is still the Qing State that can watch and help each other. Now that the Yue State has increased its troops, it should inform its friends."

Wang Ge nodded and said:
"Indeed, according to what the prime minister said, Sikong should be responsible for this matter, and the prime minister will raise funds to build a strong army with the Taiwei."

Let Sikong take responsibility.
Zhang Yan's eyelids twitched when he heard this, he should be responsible for this kind of thing before, but now King Yue doesn't let him have any contact with King Qing.

Well, Zhang Yan can confirm that in this rebellion of Hengjiang Kingdom, the King of Yue did not intend to settle down, and he wanted to take advantage of the situation to expand his power.

It's not that they want to rebel, but they also have the intention of breaking away from Daxuan's control.

The King of Yue said nothing, but Zhang Yan had already grasped his meaning.

Zhang Yan raised his head, his face was livid, as if he looked very heavy.

Wang Ge is very bland.

Zhang Yan finally tried:

"Your Majesty, please note that Emperor Xuan used to follow the will of the people and rule the world by defeating King Wu. Although there is rebellion now, in the eyes of the humble ministers, they are all clowns. They are not as majestic as King Wu in the past. They are even more powerful than King Wu and are defeated in battle, and even commit other chaos. party?"

Zhang Yan moved Emperor Xuan to suppress him.

But how many divisions does Emperor Xuan have?
Wang Ge still remained calm and calmly said:

"Emperor Xuan is indeed the king of the Ming Dynasty. However, there are changes in the world today, and they are changing with each passing day. You can't use the usual theory. The monarchs of the Yue Kingdom should find other ways to protect the country and the people."

How old is this? Are you still using the previous version of understanding?

You're behind, old man!
"The prime minister's warning has been fully known to me. Dear friends, please follow my instructions." Wang Ge said.

Zhang Yan had a gloomy face, while Sikong Handen had already stood up and handed over his hands:
"Weak ministers have orders."

He went to organize peace affairs with the Qing Kingdom and resist the affairs of the Hengjiang Kingdom.

Zhang Yan's expression changed, and the Taiwei stood up and said:

"Please also ask the prime minister and the old man to go together to make arrangements for the new army."

Zhang Yan was just a civil servant in the Yijin Realm. In front of a martial arts master, he didn't have the strength to say no.

The situation was pressing. He sighed secretly, nodded and handed over, obeying the Taiwei.

All three men left, only King Yue and Our Lady of Longevity remained in the hall.

There was no one else around, Yu Xiaoyu stopped sullenly, stuck out her tongue, and asked:

"Your Highness, am I doing alright?"

She didn't know much about what was going on in the court, but Wang Ge asked her to dress up, show her face in front of everyone, and just don't talk and keep her manners.

And here she is.

"Very good, but this is just the beginning." Wang Ge nodded and stroked her head.

Yu Xiaoyu narrowed his eyes, as obedient as a cat.

Although the actual controller of the island is Wang Ge, there are many things that Seagod can't face directly, so he needs a "speaker".

Yu Xiaoyu should eat and practice.

The two women in the harem are also aware of these things, and they even designed a dress for Yu Xiaoyu, and adjusted her manners so that she can appear in the public eye with the best appearance.

On the other hand, Zhang Yan was taken by Zhao Rui to prepare a new army, which was an urgent need.

The prime minister and the prince worked together, and it seemed to outsiders that there was no problem.

In fact, Zhang Yan felt that he was "under house arrest" by Zhao Rui, and he couldn't resist a martial arts master at all.

Coupled with the fact that Sikong was in charge of diplomacy, the officials more or less noticed something strange.

His Highness seems to have his own agenda.Especially the bureaucrats in the imperial court who were close to Daxuan found that they could no longer contact Zhang Yan.

And in the few days after Zhang Yan was taken away by the Taiwei, most of those pro-xuan officials were impeached!
The Yushitai under Sikong produced a bunch of evidence that they had accepted bribes, formed cliques for personal gain, embezzled state assets, or local families bullied men and women, hindering people's livelihood.

The evidence is not out of thin air!

There is absolutely no fabrication, everything is true, and they should be dismissed and punished according to the law.

If a crime is discovered, then the price must be paid. This is the rule.

But these officials didn't know where they were exposed, so they were caught by the Yushitai without any warning?
Wang Ge used the four ghosts to accumulate evidence, and now he finally used it!

He fired the group of officials for some good reasons.

Many pro-Xuan officials left key positions due to various dirty things they had done in the past.

There is a killing chicken, and the song of "waiting for the king" is not played.

For those "centrists", Wang Ge also asked the people from Yushitai to go to them to "drink tea", put out a bunch of dirty evidence in front of them, and asked them to choose whether to "be imprisoned" or "obey the king's will". ".

Except for a few officials who have no desire but have no control, Wang Ge's trick is really easy to use.

This is not just coercion, Baiguan is also aware of King Yue's terrifying intelligence capabilities.

How did the King of Yue know what was going on outside the palace when he was staying in the harem tomorrow and tomorrow?
Knowing so clearly, dig out all the dark, immoral and illegal things they have done.

For a while, all the officials were in danger. They didn't know what kind of eyeliner the King of Yue had arranged around him, so they began to reflect on themselves.

If you have bad personal ethics and benefit yourself at the expense of the public, what can you use to fight against the king of Yue?
There is no other way but to obey.

During this process, Wang Ge coordinated the voices in the court and completed the centralization of power.

The so-called three years of silence, a blockbuster,
Wang Ge had been saving up for half a year to prepare, and now he finally showed his fangs.

The entire country of Yue was pushed towards re-arming by him, and the steering wheel of the chariot of the country of Yue was firmly in his own hands.

"The luck related to Yue and other places has even increased from [-]% gold to [-]% gold."

Wang Ge examines the growth of his basic luck, which is the indicator that best reflects his dominance.
