Daming: Distribution of Lingnan, you develop the Pearl River Delta?

Chapter 37 Academicians of Ming Dynasty
This shout was so majestic that if he wasn't a big shot, he wouldn't be able to shout it out.

Sophia stopped in her tracks.

When he looked back, there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

She is a Byzantine princess!

I have seen some kings before.

Among them, the emperor of the Ottoman Empire made her feel this kind of heart palpitations.

When Zhu Yuanzhang is angry, his face becomes dark.

Then, his appearance looked somewhat similar to the one on the statue.

"Guest, you..."

Sophia looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in shock.

That look was obviously frightening.

"Ahem..." Queen Ma coughed dryly.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a straight face: "Why are you coughing? I have my own idea! Tiande, tell her my identity."

"..." Xu Da was speechless.

After all, this emperor still couldn’t calm down!

He still wants to show off his cards.

A moment later, at the secluded lakeside of Daming International University, Sophia met Zhu Yuanzhang with Byzantine etiquette. She already believed Zhu Yuanzhang's identity because... Xu Da had the official seal on his body.

After staying in Panyu for so long, Sophia naturally knows that this is an existence that no one dares to pretend to be.

Not to mention the emperor!

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Sophia: "You are safe! In addition, my identity cannot be told to anyone except you, not even the King of Qin!"

"what?"

Sophia blinked her big blue eyes and asked, "Why? Isn't King Qin the emperor's son?"

"I am doing a private visit incognito. Do you know what a private visit in incognito is?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly: "This time I came here to understand the people's livelihood in Lingnan. If I let him know, how would I know? Besides, I didn't intend to meet him at all."

"Okay, you are the emperor, I listen to you!" Sophia was very sensible.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up and he asked: "Then are you willing to help me and monitor the King of Qin? I can arrange manpower for you and grant you an official position. However, you must also conceal your identity, and then report all the big and small things that happen in Lingnan every month. Everything should be registered in the register and sent to the capital for me to review!"

It turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang was planning on this.

He had wanted to arrange for someone to monitor Lingnan before.

What is it now?
Local materials?

"I do!" Sophia agreed immediately.

why?
Of course it has something to do with her country!

Byzantium, originally the Eastern Roman Empire, was split from the Roman Empire. Its capital was in Constantinople, and it always regarded itself as Roman orthodoxy. However, later the Ottoman Empire rose and continued to capture Byzantine lands, plus several Crusaders. The Eastern Expedition brought the Byzantine Empire to the brink of danger.

Now Byzantium has only one capital left.

Sophia fled the country this time because Constantinople was attacked.

After she escaped from the country, she received news that Byzantium had repelled the enemy's attack, but her father asked her not to go back, but to find helpers who could help their country.Unexpectedly, after this search, she boarded a boat and found the distant Ming Dynasty.

Thousands of miles away!

However, in Sophia's opinion, Daming is the one who can save her country!

In particular, she also learned that Ming Dynasty actually bought a large piece of land on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea, and the canal was almost completed.

This shows that although they are thousands of miles apart, Daming has the strength to expand its influence to the Mediterranean Sea!
But now, Sophia actually came into contact with the emperor of Ming Dynasty through some strange combination of circumstances.

You can also get an official position in the Ming Dynasty!

She has no reason to refuse.

But how could Zhu Yuanzhang believe her?

"Don't rush to agree."

Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly: "Don't think that if you agree to me, you can please both sides. Let me tell you, King Qin is my son, and there is no quarrel between me and his father and son. If you betray me, I will be surrendered." Tell the King of Qin about the private visit, and the King of Qin will definitely let me know about it. I won’t blame him, and he won’t blame me. But you...you have to be careful!"

Sophia's face changed slightly when she heard this, and she immediately replied: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Sophia promises not to betray the Emperor. That is, if I conceal my identity, how can I get close to King Qin and deliver the news you want to the Emperor?"

"Hide your identity for the time being, and wait until I return to Beijing to announce the edict before you take office." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Now, you continue to take me to visit Panyu County, and explain everything I don't know to me. !”

"Of order, Your Majesty the Emperor!" Sophia nodded.

The group of people continued to wander around the school.

Even here, a large area of ​​farmland was discovered.

In ancient times, this was actually nothing new.

However, these farmlands were very neatly planned, and the rice grains inside were large and full, and there were many students helping to take care of them. Zhu Yuanzhang asked in surprise: "Are people still taught to grow food in this school?"

"Your Majesty, this is the result of Mr. Yuan's research. He improved rice hybridization and continuously increased the rice yield per mu. It has now increased tenfold. His Highness King Qin said that as long as Mr. Yuan is here, he can ensure that the entire Ming Dynasty will not be destroyed in the future. Lack of food!" Sophia said very proudly.

Because Mr. Yuan is also her tutor.

Sophia admired this mentor's high integrity.

She knew very well how much impact Mr. Yuan's invention would have on the world.

However, Mr. Yuan still lives in a small wooden house, and the food is not big fish and meat. He does not pursue luxury in his clothes. He has been doing research silently.

Sophia told Zhu Yuanzhang all these thoughts in her heart.

"Yuan Shennong, what a talent!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed with emotion: "No wonder I see that the people in Lingnan are working hard to build without worrying about food and clothing. It turns out that it is because of the existence of this person... In this way, if the King of Qin can achieve such political achievements in Lingnan, this person's contribution should be the first. !”

"Ok!"

Sophia nodded and added: "There are also Professor Luo, Professor Tang, Professor Zhu and many others. They are also working hard to contribute to the construction of Lingnan, and they do not ask for any official positions. When His Highness King Qin once gave a speech at the school, he was particularly Mentioning them, he said that only he could understand the use of these people. If they were to go to the capital to hold official positions, it would harm these scholars. Therefore, His Highness the King of Qin specially issued a decree to establish various academies to subsidize these professors every month. And they were awarded the honorary title of Academician of the Ming Dynasty!"

These words also dispelled Zhu Yuanzhang's idea of ​​poaching Zhu Chong.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he would definitely not be able to dig it out.

Moreover, Zhu Fang specifically made his motive for establishing the Academy public, and said in public that people like Mr. Yuan were not suitable to serve as officials in the imperial court. This was obviously to prevent his father from poaching people.

"This traitor has turned into a human spirit after arriving in Lingnan!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled coldly.
