Wind rises time and space gate

Hearing that the King of Yue was sent to the Sinong Division, several people who had originally intended to approach him couldn't help but stop thinking. Even those who had some plans in mind gave up and just continued to wait and see.

Jiang Xiang was worried and sighed repeatedly. The prince still has a long way to go.

Fortunately, it was already September, and the autumn harvest had been completed in most places. There was no need to worry that the King of Yue would be sent to other places to guide planting and inspect farming, but he could still stay in the capital.

Otherwise, when the king of Yue returned to the capital, and another pole was used to push him to a place where birds can't shit, it would be better to stay in the imperial mausoleum.

After hearing his son talk about some of the arrangements of the King of Yue, Jiang Xiang felt a little relieved. In response to Prince Qi's worried inquiry, he could still say a few words of comfort.

Zhao Guangyuan did not express any dissatisfaction and went to the Sinong Division to report the next day.

Sinongqing, Shaoqing, the governor and others did not expect that the emperor would arrange for the King of Yue to come to the Sinong Department. With great fear, all the officials from the government office came out to greet him.

They are in charge of agriculture. Although they are responsible for teaching the world about farming, taking charge of the world's agriculture, mulberry and water conservancy, and the administration of famines in various places, they seem to be very important, but who doesn't know that they are soft-spoken.

The mulberry farming in various places is arranged by the local government and county governments, and they do not have that many people to send to various places to guide farming. As for the capital, they were speechless.

Land and food are important, but who cares about them anymore?

There are only a dozen or so people in the Si Nong Division from Sinong Qing to the lower government officials, and those with official positions are only Si Nong Qing, Shao Qing, governor, principal, etc. Sinong Qing is only of the fifth rank and is not even qualified to go to court. Not to mention the people under his command.

They spoke softly, and the adults above didn't want to hear them talk about farming and digging. If the founder of the country hadn't personally created this department, it might have been abolished now.

It turned out that they were in their own department, but later the Ministry of Household Affairs refused to hire them and kicked them to the Ministry of Works. The Minister of the Ministry of Works pinched his nose and accepted them, but he also felt that the Department of Agriculture and Agriculture was incompatible with the Ministry of Works, so he did not call them together. discussion.

The Department of Agriculture is becoming more and more like an invisible department.

"I have met the King of Yue." Sinong Qing led officials of all sizes in the government office to pay homage to the King of Yue.

Zhao Guangyuan stepped forward to support him, "Mr. Yao, you don't have to do this. It's my duty to salute you." Then he straightened his clothes and saluted solemnly, "Zhao Guangyuan, I have met Mr. Yao, Mr. Du, and several others."

Ouch. It's going to break them.

"No, King of Yue!" They all went to avoid it. They spoke softly. Normally, even a small official in the Ministry of Works would not take them seriously, but now the King of Yue saluted them.

"That's right. I have been sent by the emperor to serve in the Agriculture Department, so all of you are naturally my superiors."

His father was also very interesting. He only said that he was sent to work in the Agriculture Department. He did not specify what the duties would be, so he was someone who could be ordered around.

The King of Yue's actions won the favor of all the people in the Department of Agriculture. Although his face was serious, he knew how to be polite and did not look up at them. He was so approachable that people liked him, which made Sinong Qing feel at ease.

When they heard that the emperor had sent the King of Yue, everyone was complaining. Originally, Si Nongsi was not taken seriously, but now a prince came to suppress them, making them even more confused about how to behave.

Sinongqing Yao Yongyi was satisfied with the performance of the King of Yue, but after all, he was the prince and he did not dare to be lazy.

Moreover, rumors about the King of Yue are everywhere in the capital. It is said that he has been guarding the imperial mausoleum for ten years. When the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty had a birthday banquet, the whole capital came to congratulate him. The youngest sixteen princes all lived better than him. He was angry and resentful. , pushed His Highness Sixteenth into the water... But the emperor felt sorry for him. Not only did he not pursue his fault, he also arranged errands for him.

Yao Yongyi thought about how the King of Yue behaved just now. He didn't seem to be like the psychologically twisted person who was said to have been imprisoned for ten years.

But maybe the King of Yue was acting coyly.

"Your Majesty, please show me around first."

"That's fine." Yao Yongyi led Zhao Guangyuan around the Si Nong Division, told him about the daily work of the Si Nong Division, and then took him to the Ministry of Works next door to say hello.

When the people from the Ministry of Industry saw the King of Yue, they did not dare to neglect and came forward to salute one after another. The ministers of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Yao Yongyi, since the emperor sent the King of Yue to the Si Nong Division, it shows that he attaches great importance to the Si Nong Division. You must take good care of the King of Yue and take care of the affairs of the Si Nong Division together."

Shi Miao, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, explained to Yao Yongyi.

Yao Yongyi hurriedly responded, "Don't worry, Lord Shi, I will definitely take good care of the King of Yue."

Zhao Guangyuan glanced at Shi Miao indifferently, and then saw that Si Nongsi looked down at the people from the Ministry of Works, and frowned.

He saw another person staring at him. He looked up and saw something familiar, but he couldn't quite place it in his mind.

The man smiled and saluted the King of Yue, "Xiaguan An Chang is here and has met the King of Yue."

An Changzai? Zhao Guangyuan turned over things in his mind, and only after a moment did he remember this person. An Changzai, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, the maternal ancestor of his brother King Jing of the Nine Emperors.

In return: "Mr. An, you are so polite. I will serve in the Department of Agriculture from now on, and I hope that Mr. An will support me a lot."

"The King of Yue is serious. I heard that the King of Yue is studying high-yield techniques in the imperial mausoleum, and he will definitely be like a fish in water in the Agriculture Department."

"Thank you for your kind words, Mr. An."

After walking around in a circle, we returned to Si Nongsi. Yao Yongyi tidied up a public house for the King of Yue for his own use.

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Department of Agriculture and Agriculture was originally its own department. At that time, the government office was large and there were many people at all levels, so it was very comfortable and carefree. But now I am squeezed into a corner of the Ministry of Industry, with more than a dozen people sharing an office, and I feel aggrieved. Now there is a room separated for the exclusive use of the King of Yue, and the remaining people are getting more and more crowded.

Zhao Guangyuan thought for a while and accepted Master Yao's kindness.

I asked Mr. Yao for the files of the Agriculture Department, and sat in the government office to read them.

At noon, Cao Cuo brought him food. Zhao Guangyuan saw that he had a lot, so he took it out and shared it with his colleagues, which also won the favor of the superiors and subordinates of the Department of Agriculture.

In the afternoon, after reading the files, Zhao Guangyuan called Shaoqing Du Zhishu to understand the situation.

Sinong Shaoqing Du Zhishu was also full of grievances.

His family had been poor farmers for dozens of generations, and with all the efforts of the whole family, he was finally rescued. When he was eighteen years old, he passed the Jinshi examination and became famous throughout the county. Just when Dapeng was about to show off his talents, he was assigned to farm in the Sinong Division because he had no connections.

In the past eight years, people in the same department as him have either been promoted and made a fortune, or they have become local officials and won the support of the people. He is the only one who, after eight years of climbing, is still a seventh-grade Sesame Officer.

The tears of grievance can flow several times every night.

Du Zhishu didn't know what the King of Yue wanted him to do, so he came in in fear. Although the King of Yue's palace was small, with only room for a table and two chairs, he was still overwhelmed with tears of envy.

He and Lord Sinongqing Yao don't have separate public houses yet. It's such a miserable mess.

"The prince is looking for a subordinate?"

Zhao Guangyuan nodded, "I heard that you are from Lizhou?"
