Fu Changfeng sent someone to inform Tao Zi that he would be on standby at home. If someone called him, he would go to the palace immediately.
After listening to Fu Changfeng's story, the emperor was also very interested in Taozi, who had been studying rice seeds for many years. Sure enough, he ordered someone to call Taozi into the palace and asked him to tell him about the management of rice seeds since Fu Changfeng returned to the capital and this. Yield of rice in one season.
Even though Tao Zi had dealt with many people over the years, he was still nervous standing in the imperial study room. Fortunately, Fu Changfeng was here, and he felt much more at ease. From the time he was sent by Fu Changfeng to look for rice seeds until now, he was talking about the changes. , His words were naturally not as rich as those who had been high officials for many years, but they were more truthful. After the emperor listened to him with interest, a smile appeared on his face.
"Fu Aiqing, this younger brother of yours is really an expert in farming. He is very knowledgeable about this kind of rice. At the same time, he has his own considerations. Yes, yes, I will arrange for someone to go down and verify it. You go home and wait, Wu Aiqing You stay, you two go back first.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. The humble minister (caomin) will retire."
The Emperor and the Minister of Household Affairs discussed for a long time. Until the next shift, Fu Changfeng did not see the Minister come back, so he went back and waited.
The next day, Zuo Shilang returned to the household department and found something different. However, he did not know what happened. His subordinates only knew that the emperor summoned Fu Changfeng yesterday, but they did not find out what happened.
"Humph, he's just a businessman. How big of a storm can he make? I really thought it would be great to build some terraces. Rice can't be grown in places like ours. The benefits are temporary. Now the right servant has his tail raised. You got up, but you didn’t even notice me, the Zuo Shilang, in your eyes.”
"Sir, if we think of a way to make it impossible for them to stand up, you will be the only one who will make the decision in this household department from now on, except for the Lord Shangshu."
"If you put all your thoughts on political achievements, I'm afraid I would have been promoted long ago. It took me so many years to be promoted from the right minister to the left minister. You ask the people under you to do more, and you should do it as soon as possible. If they ignore it, that's the best thing for me."
Although Zuo Shilang said this, it does not mean that he does not agree with the ideas of subordinate officials. However, this matter cannot be done openly. He has to find people in private and find faults in their moral conduct. As long as they themselves are not upright, then Wouldn’t it be natural for me to take care of it?Zuo Shilang secretly praised his idea, but he didn't know what he would face yet.
The waiting day was the longest. Seeing that the court had not announced the matter, they did not dare to tell it at will.
However, there was also other good news during this period. For example, Zhao Yuping had been frustrated for many years. After following Fu Changfeng, he finally passed the scholar examination a few years ago and ranked first in the examination. This year happened to be the time of the provincial examination, and he got the first place in the result. Immediately, someone sent a letter to Fu Changfeng. He won the provincial examination in one fell swoop, which was a great success.
Zhao Yuping burst into tears when he saw someone on the list. Years of depression were relieved at this moment, and he could experience the joy of returning home in glory.
When the Zhao family got the news, they all hurriedly took out the firecrackers they had prepared and set them off. Except for the Fu family who learned the news immediately, the rest of the neighbors didn't know the situation and were still thinking about it. Thinking that the children of the Zhao family were still young, they should not be getting married, so why did they suddenly set off firecrackers.
When they got closer, they heard that it was Zhao Yuping who had passed the examination. Their family was now considered to be half-officials, and everyone congratulated them one after another.
Father Zhao and Mother Zhao have also been holding back their energy over the years. Now that their son has passed the exam, they naturally ask their servants to spend money so that everyone around them can feel their Changjin also returned home not long after, and learned that the eldest son of the Fu family had also passed the Jinshi examination, and now he was an official. There were more people around to congratulate him. The Fu family had really changed its family, and now both brothers were officials. People of the previous generation heard that there were also those who were admitted as scholars or Tongsheng, and they were really famous.
The Fu family in Fucheng also got the benefits they wanted. Seeing that Fu Changjin had also been admitted to the Jinshi, they did not dare to make any mistakes, for fear of offending them and finding an excuse in the future to turn their family into a ruin.
The people sent by the emperor to investigate came back, and brought back good news. The yield of this rice seed was indeed twice as high as the previous ones. Fu Changfeng did not lie. The emperor told other ministers about the matter in a morning meeting, and everyone Everyone knows how powerful Fu Changfeng is, and now he is afraid that he will be promoted again.
Sure enough, Fu Changfeng, who was usually not qualified to go to court, now walked into the Jinluan Palace. Under the eunuch's announcement, he became the Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. The former Right Minister was promoted one level and became the Left Minister. As for the original The left minister was demoted by the emperor to the right minister of the Ministry of Industry because of his unhealthy family tradition and lax governance.
As for Taozi, because of this incident, the emperor made him an eighth-grade minister, mainly responsible for rice seeds. From now on, he will be responsible for the management and research of rice seeds, and strive to increase the yield.
Tao Zi also didn't expect that he would become an official because of the rice seed incident. When receiving the order, Xi Chun reminded him quietly so that he would not lose his composure.
As for Xichun, she played a big role in improving the quality of rice seeds this time. The emperor gave her a royal decree and allowed her to study rice seeds with Tao Zi. If she develops other varieties, she will be greatly rewarded.
Xichun did not expect that His Majesty the Emperor would be so informal. You must know that although women in this dynasty can do business, they are not allowed to participate in politics. Even the queen cannot interfere. Xichun's heart is full of gratitude and she thinks that she must You should use your abilities to do more for the people of this country, so that you can have more things to do, instead of sitting back and watching the wind all day long.
Xichun's heart had been silent for a long time, and he found something to do again. He felt more at ease and devoted himself to the cause of researching rice seeds.
After Fu Changfeng was briefly excited, the burden on him became heavier. He followed Zuo Shilang for advice every day. He was not proud of the emperor's reward. Zuo Shilang would not deliberately embarrass him because he had benefited from it.
Three years later, Azhao and Azheng returned to their hometown to take the imperial examination. The two children lived up to their expectations. One was admitted as a civil servant and the other was admitted as a scholar. They were ready to start traveling outside. Xichun naturally did not stop them and always went out for more walks. It is good.
This time, along with their good news, Xiaofeng was admitted to the Juren Examination, and several people from the same village were admitted to the Scholarship and Tongsheng. Taoyuan Village really became famous in Guangming Mansion, and many curious people started to pay attention. When exploring the reasons behind the fame of Taoyuan Village, the contribution of Xichun was mentioned.
Everyone lamented that marrying a virtuous wife, who would have thought that the little orphan girl in Taoyuan Village could have such a good fortune now. People are thinking that they should treat their own girls better, maybe they will be able to do so in the future. How about becoming a legendary figure like Chen Xichun?
