Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 186;
At this time, Emperor Hongwen also looked at Lu Yaoyao with a sigh.

It never occurred to him that this young girl, who had just reached her age, would have such extraordinary insights.

And she did it herself. Just now Huo Di made it very clear that the four or five thousand victims in her village were settled very properly.

Look at your own ministers, what have they done one by one?
Every day I pretend to be concerned about the country and the people, but in the end, I just talk about it, and there are not many people who really do it by themselves.

In the face of a famine, I don't think about how to resettle the victims and give them a stable living environment, but instead grab him day by day and make him commit some crimes.

Some people did it by themselves, and maliciously speculated on slander and impeachment.

It's really infuriating.

"Wanfu, what happened this time was a misunderstanding, and now the misunderstanding can be resolved."

"You've done a good job, you should be rewarded."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao lowered his head and bowed, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for returning the fairness to the daughters of the people."

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, and the women of the people are limited in their abilities and have not done enough. They must never be worthy of His Majesty's reward."

Emperor Hongwen was more and more satisfied with her, but he frowned slightly when he heard her calling herself a folk girl.

"Mr. Wanfu Township, what you have done for the court and the people this time can be regarded as a model for all the noble officials of the court."

"Lu Yaoyao stepped forward to accept the seal."

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials who were still ashamed were stunned, and looked up at Emperor Hongwen in unison.

I wonder if my ears have heard it wrong, Tingfeng?

Seal what?
Dongzhou's titles are very strictly controlled, and there were many of them when the country was founded. In the next hundred years, less than ten new ones were born.

This is not only to have great credit, but also to have a certain status.

Let's talk about Lu Yaoyao. She is not the daughter of a noble family member, nor is she the daughter of a great hero. Under normal circumstances, a commoner woman like her is the highest title that the Xiangjun can obtain.

After all, the next step is the county head, and only the noble daughters of the royal family are eligible to obtain such a title.

There are few exceptions, and it is also because of some accidents or chances that only those girls who were raised by the nobles in the palace are eligible to get it.

As far as Dongzhou is concerned, there are only three women who are not members of the royal family and have won the title of county head or above.

The first is Princess Yunxi, who was a character when Taizu founded the country. She was able to get this seat because her biological father was Taizu's youngest child, and she fought together with him, and finally lost because of saving Taizu. life.

This time, he was favored by Taizu and honored as the princess.

The situation of the latter two is similar, and they were raised by the nobles in the palace since they were young. For example, one of them was raised by the queen mother, and the other was raised by the queen.

The title he got was only the county lord.

Now that Lu Yaoyao is already a township lord, if she is appointed again at this time, she will be the county lord. Her status and achievements are not up to the qualifications of being a county lord.

After a short period of stupefaction, some officials felt unhappy.

Especially those civil servants who were trained by Lu Yaoyao just now.

At this moment, they were thinking for a while if His Majesty really wanted to confer the title of Lord Lu Yaoyao, what reason would they use to oppose it.

After all, being pointed at by someone and scolding rubbish, I admire Lu Yaoyao's mind and insight, but most of them are unhappy.

And Duke Zhen, who was at the front, was not feeling very comfortable at this time.

You must know that his daughter has often been in and out of the court since she was a child, and she is also very popular with the empress. Up to now she doesn't even have the lowest title.

He is convinced that Lu Yaoyao can be granted the title of Township Lord, after all, those sweet potatoes are really extraordinary.

But now?However, some victims were resettled, and it was because she was in need of workers that she did it.

Although this is of course helpful to the imperial court, she also has a purpose in herself and rewards some gold and silver property, which is completely sufficient.

It can't reach the level of raising the title at all.

However, although he was upset, he didn't show it. After all, His Royal Highness still needs Lu Yaoyao.

Lu Yaoyao didn't care about the behavior of the people around him at all.

She took a step forward, and just as Emperor Hongwen was about to speak, Lu Yaoyao took out the jade pendant that he had gone down last time.

"Your Majesty, Minnv has already made up her mind to ask herself to be expelled. This is the jade pendant you bestowed on her back then, and today Minnen brought it with her."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongwen frowned tightly, with displeasure rising between his brows.

He had never encountered such a thing before. Not only did the other party not want his reward, but he even didn't want his original title?
Isn't that hitting him in the face?
"Yaoyao, don't talk nonsense"

Sensing the change in Emperor Hongwen's complexion, Wen Songtao's heart also rose, and he reminded him in a low voice, ignoring the rules of the court.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Emperor Hongwen asked in a deep voice, with suppressed anger in his tone.

"Yes, Minnv grew up in the countryside since she was a child, she doesn't know the rules, and she doesn't want to cause trouble for Your Majesty, so I beg Your Majesty to grant Minnv's request."

She never liked trouble. According to her original plan, after cleaning up Xu Zhao and Gao, she would go back to Jiangdong to pay homage to her mother.

Then go back to the farm and live a comfortable life.

Later, the Lu family found a false accusation, and in order to save the Lu family, she donated potatoes and sweet potatoes. Who knew that she won the seat of a village lord for no reason.

At first she thought, if you can get it, then you can get it, but she didn't care.

But after getting drunk, she found that this seat didn't seem to be as irrelevant as she thought.

Let's not talk about the previous things, let's just say that this time, Geng Chen's impeachment was because someone wanted to mess with her.

Otherwise, she and Geng Chen would have no grievances, and the other party would not keep biting her even if something went wrong with the investigation.

Just now, when she entered the palace, she scanned Geng Chen and found that this matter was not simple.

The people behind Geng Chen are complicated, and this time they did something to him, and they were directly rushing to kill him.

That being the case, she didn't intend to be polite, Geng Chen must be dealt with, and the people behind him also need to be warned.

Of course, there are still those who are ready to move in the dark, so at this time, she is so resolute in asking herself to be expelled from the rank, to put it bluntly, she is advancing by retreating.

I want to tell those individuals, don't think that they are very rare for this title, I can give it up at any time, so I won't make a fuss about it in the future.

And the words she said to Emperor Hongwen just now are also very meaningful.

What do you mean you don't want to trouble him in the future?

Doesn't it imply that this incident may be just the beginning, and I'm afraid that there will be more incidents in this area in the future.

To put it bluntly, it was also reminding Emperor Hongwen that someone was behind this incident.

"Humph."

Emperor Hongwen snorted angrily and stood up abruptly.

"Wang De drafted an order."

Wang De quickly bowed to answer.

The next moment, Emperor Hongwen spoke directly and conferred Lu Yaoyao as Wanfu county lord. Before all the officials below could react, the county lord's seat fell down.
