Chapter 61 Yang Xian is impeached again!Hu Weiyong presents treasure!

Yang Xian is very busy these days!
The return from the imperial court that day, especially Zhu Yuanzhang's indifferent departure, not only did not make him feel there was any problem, but also made Yang Xian regard Hu Weiyong as a thorn in his side.

He didn't realize how great Hu Weiyong was, let alone how much Zhu Yuanzhang valued Hu Weiyong.

In his opinion, he was also the prime minister promoted by Zhu Yuanzhang himself. Isn't this more important than a former prime minister who abdicated?
Besides, it is true that Hu Weiyong was born in Huaixi, and he is an old minister of His Majesty.

But doesn’t the Huaixi Gang still have Li Shanchang as prime minister and leading the way?

And behind him stood a group of Jiangnan ministers who supported him.

Can your Majesty really turn a blind eye to these ministers?
It's just that I feel that there is insufficient evidence and insufficient accusations, so I am too lazy to deal with it for the time being. It definitely does not mean that I don't value myself!

After some brainstorming, Yang Xian determined that as long as the evidence was solid and the matter was made bigger, Hu Weiyong would definitely be unlucky.

Therefore, in the past few days, he had even put aside business responsibilities, carefully selected a few modern scholars, and started chatting in detail.

What is Yang Xian's identity?
Prime minister of the dynasty!

Although there was Li Shanchang, the left prime minister, in front of him, he actually had some difficulty even commanding the six ministries.

But how would the students know?

To be approached by such a big shot, they would have been extremely happy.

Therefore, when Yang Xian asked them to sign some of the words he said, they agreed without even thinking.

So, Yang Xian, who took the "confessions" of several modern scholars, turned around and rushed to the palace happily.

As prime minister, it was quite easy for Yang Xian to meet Zhu Yuanzhang.

After Song Litong passed the news, Yang Xian handed over what he had in his hand as soon as he saw Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, these are some of the opinions and thoughts I have recently collected about modern scholars. I feel it is necessary for Your Majesty to take a look!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and picked up the pamphlet handed over by Song Li, flipping through it and his eyes narrowed instantly.

He raised his head sharply and looked at Yang Xian who didn't even have time to hide the pride on his face.

"Yang Xian, what are your intentions for doing this?"

When Yang Xian heard this, he was immediately confused.

what?
I have brought the evidence before your eyes, Your Majesty, do you still want to protect Hu Weiyong to the death?

"Your Majesty, I have nothing but a public heart!"

"The imperial examination is a top priority in our dynasty. It is not only a ceremony for recruiting talents, but also a grand event for culture and culture. However, nowadays, Academician Hu has made the public resentful and the scholars are discussing."

"As your Majesty's right-hand prime minister, how can I just sit back and watch such a major event?"

"If I turn a blind eye, wouldn't I be betraying the divine grace?"

When Yang Xian said these words, his face turned red with excitement.

Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't look carefully just now. He just subconsciously defended Hu Weiyong's name when he saw it, which completely irritated Yang Xian.

Otherwise, he would not have dared to talk to Zhu Yuanzhang like this in the past.

However, although Yang Xian was excited, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't particularly care.

He carefully looked through the booklet in his hand and frowned in thought.

The booklet was filled with the voices of the students, and their place of origin and names were clearly written. Zhu Yuanzhang was very sure that Yang Xian did not have the guts to lie in this regard.

In other words, Yang Xian would not be stupid enough to lie about these things that could be easily verified.

So, why are these students so resentful towards Hu Weiyong?
Is it really because Hu Weiyong "deliberately makes things difficult" as they say?
As soon as this idea came up, Zhu Yuanzhang instinctively threw it aside.

How can it be!

Didn't some students complain about this last time?
Not only did we not punish Hu Weiyong, we also rewarded him for it!
Now that Yang Xian is bringing this matter up again, could it be that he wants to prove that we are wrong?

How can we be wrong about this kind of thing?

impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Just when both the monarch and his ministers fell into silence, Song Li suddenly came to report. "Your Majesty, Master Hu has something to ask for!"

"Huh? Hu Weiyong? Announce it quickly!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Hu Weiyong's name, he asked Song Li to call him in without thinking.

Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed quite satisfied with Hu Weiyong.

After all, it's better not to compare. A comparison will reveal that among a group of old Huaixi brothers, Hu Weiyong is as innocent as a little flower.

It's low-key and down-to-earth.

Even sometimes, if no one mentioned it, Zhu Yuanzhang would not realize that the former prime minister was still living well in Yingtian City, just thanking guests behind closed doors.

After receiving the news, Hu Weiyong entered the hall carrying the pole and swinging two baskets of potatoes.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Xian.

But at this time, Mr. Hu was very happy, so he didn't have the time to talk to Yang Xian.

Zhu Yuanzhang was simply baffled by the honor he showed to Hu Weiyong, but his curiosity arose directly.

Hu Weiyong walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang, put down his pole, and raised his hand to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, I have come to offer you a treasure!"

"Definitely your favorite thing!"

"Come, Your Majesty, come down and see for yourself!"

"Treasure offering?"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his interest dropped a lot.

He is stingy, bloodthirsty, lustful, and has a lot of minor flaws, but in fact his materialistic desires are not that serious.

However, Hu Weiyong still had to give him face. He walked up to Hu Weiyong with his hands behind his back, looked at the two baskets of yellow "fruit" and asked curiously:

"Wei Yong, what is this?"

Hu Weiyong took a deep breath and raised his hand to Zhu Yuanzhang again.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, I am fortunate enough to have obtained this fairy grain in a foreign land. After I tried growing and eating it in my mansion, I can confirm that the yield of this food can reach thirty stones per mu!"

"With this immortal food in hand, no one will starve to death in our Ming Dynasty!"

"How many?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened and he grabbed Hu Weiyong with disbelief written all over his face.

Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's surprised and disbelieving eyes, Hu Weiyong nodded calmly.

"You heard it right, Your Majesty, after my trial planting of this seed, I can produce thirty shi of grain per acre."

"This product consumes no land, does not require land, is easy to grow, and has a huge yield. The most important thing is that it is both vegetable and food. It is definitely worthy of the term fairy food!"

"I have tried planting it in my mansion before. It is precisely because I have tried it and confirmed the authenticity of this thing that I dare to offer it to Your Majesty!"

Speaking of this, Hu Weiyong smiled proudly.

"Your Majesty, what do you think? Can I win the Sacred Heart by offering this treasure?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Weiyong blankly, then looked down at the two baskets of inconspicuous potatoes, and then looked up at Hu Weiyong.

If Hu Weiyong's words hadn't really reached his ears just now, and Hu Weiyong had spoken so categorically, he would have definitely thought that Hu Weiyong was deceiving him.

So... is this true?

Are we...really going to get a kind of fairy food?
