Ming Dynasty: He was ordered to give lectures in prison, but Lao Zhu eavesdropped and made people nu

Chapter 617: Folk Rumors
Zhu Yuanzhang's fair judgment not only quelled the slander against Lin Che, but also made the position of the national teacher more stable.

The establishment of the Xingchen Terrace, with its brilliant achievements, marked the beginning of a new era in Ming Dynasty literature.

With the Star Observatory and Lin Che's astronomical instruments, Ming's navigation routes became more accurate.

Agricultural production has become more organized and people's lives have been significantly improved.

Zhu Yuanzhang attempted to use this to give the Ming Dynasty the wings of science and soar to the sky, and the national teacher Lin Che was the genius that helped Ang spread his wings and fly high.

The dark clouds hanging over the capital seemed to foreshadow a heavy mood.

The Ming Dynasty, a country with majestic mountains and rivers and an ancient civilization, unexpectedly encountered an unimaginable crisis - food shortage.

At the emergency court meeting, Zhu Yuanzhang's forehead was furrowed as if it was cut by a knife.

"My subjects, I feel anxious and confused. The people of the Ming Dynasty are suffering from hunger. My heart is broken. Please tell me quickly, what good plan can immediately solve this national crisis?"

All the civil and military officials looked at each other, no one could speak an answer, and there was silence in this magnificent hall.

It was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.

At this moment, a steady voice broke the silence: "Your Majesty, your subject Lin Che wishes to speak."

Zhu Yuanzhang quickly wiped away the sadness from his expression, leaned forward slightly, and stared at this imperial teacher who was always known for his composure.

"Lin Che, my stargazing and the world's geomancy are all from your hands. If you have any good ideas, I am willing to listen."

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice, although low, revealed a glimmer of hope.

Lin Che smiled calmly, his eyes as penetrating as a wise man who had seen through the mundane world.

"Your Majesty, this famine is not unsolvable. I have carefully studied astronomy and studied the atlas, and found that the place where the famine occurred is not without trace."

The officials in the court were whispering to each other, wondering what Lin Che meant by this.

However, faced with the national teacher's confident attitude, they could only turn their disbelief into expectation.

“Lin Che, I know you are extremely talented. Are you serious?” Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes lit up again, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

Lin Che nodded: "I dare to guarantee with my life that the disaster this time is due to years of war, coupled with unstable soil and water, and over-cultivation of the land. We only need to adjust the land use system and rotate crops properly to gradually restore the fertility of the land and increase food output."

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, strode to Lin Che's side, and said excitedly: "I'll leave this matter to you. I believe you can resolve this disaster."

Lin Che nodded, his expression revealing a feeling that the heaven and earth are on my side.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will personally inspect the countryside and personally guide the farmers to reform the use of land. The court must also legislate to protect farmers, abolish excessive taxes, and give farmers appropriate subsidies to encourage their production."

On this day, Lin Che, wearing a light silk robe, bid farewell to the hustle and bustle of the palace, and set out for the disaster area with a group of civil officials and military generals.

Lin Che used his erudition and intelligence to explain astronomy and geography to the officials along the way.

We also explain to the people how to improve farming methods, take into account the characteristics of the land, and carry out crop rotation and deep plowing.

He pointed out several areas of land that had been ravaged by war and abandoned for a long time, and suggested that the authorities implement new policies there.

Plant rotation crops and plant them at intervals with food crops to nourish the earth's energy and increase soil fertility.

He also personally demonstrated several simple and effective farm tools on the land, so that farmers would know how to more easily bring about a better harvest.

The land that was gradually regaining its fertility and the growing wheat seedlings were all evidence of Lin Che's wisdom.

After a few months, the results are obvious.

Under Lin Che's meticulous design and careful cultivation, this piece of land, which was once desolate due to war, has been reborn.

With the optimization of agricultural structure, the output of crops has increased significantly, and the crisis of food shortage has been effectively alleviated.

There is even a surplus in some areas.

All officials in the capital were amazed by Lin Che's ability, and Lin Che once again witnessed the outstanding talent of the national teacher.

He praised Lin Che in front of the emperor: "The national teacher is not only able to predict the stars, but also understands the principles of heaven and earth. Lin Che, today I know that you are capable of solving national problems. You are truly a pillar of the country."

Imperial Master Lin Che stood beside the bustling farmland and just nodded slightly.

"I have only done my best."

“Lin Che, you are being modest again.” Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes were filled with relief. “My heartbeat is very stable today, and it’s all thanks to you.”

Zhu Yuanzhang's admiration is known to the world.

Thus, a new chapter was added to the history of the Ming Dynasty: "A New Interpretation of Geography."

It records not only the wealth of the Ming Dynasty, but also the wisdom and achievements of the national teacher Lin Che.

This scene has become a beautiful story in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and has been marveled at and admired by all later generations.

Even though the national teacher Lin Che just smiled faintly, he cleverly resolved the national crisis in a subtle way.

That smile showed his deep love for the world and the people, as well as her wisdom as bright as the stars.

As the stars rotate, the night sky of the capital city takes on a quiet beauty.

However, tonight, this beauty was covered by a touch of anxiety and dark clouds in the whispers that rang in the ears of the National Master Lin Che.

"Master, people are whispering that you want to change the stars and the seasons. This..."

A middle-aged censor dressed in silk and satin hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in.

His face was full of worry.

"Oh? That's new."

Lin Che sat in front of a desk covered with star maps and smiled faintly. His voice was like the night breeze blowing gently along the bronze corridor, unperturbed by fame or disgrace.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting next to him, was painting landscapes, but he could not learn how to calm his mind. After hearing such absurd rumors, his face turned gloomy and he said, "Such absurd rumors can confuse the people of the Ming Dynasty. Lin Che, where did the rumors come from?"

Lin Che left the scroll, pondered for a moment, and said calmly: "The movement of the celestial phenomena is unpredictable. If I really want to move the stars, I'm afraid I will have to rack my brains. I hope no one in the court really believes such nonsense, otherwise it will be a joke."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who could not help laughing, knew that he was serious and rebuked him: "A joke? Imperial Master, you are so relaxed. You know that someone in the court is accusing you of this rumor and that the people are also suspicious!"

Lin Che's eyes flashed with a sharp light, but he completely suppressed it with a smile, and said solemnly: "In this case, we must use this matter to find out the truth. If someone uses this to disrupt public opinion, they must not be a good person. We must find out the source of this evil trend."

"Master, you must be careful about this matter and don't make things worse."

The censor reminded worriedly.

Lin Che nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Then he exuded a reassuring aura: "Leave this matter to me, the officials don't need to worry about it."

Before leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang warned him seriously: "Lin Che, this matter is of great importance. You and I both know that the Ming Dynasty relies on the hearts of the people. If we let those with ulterior motives succeed, it will be my country that will be at risk."
