I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 275 Looking for Sweet Potatoes and Corn

"You... who are you?"

When Gu Yan looked at the group of people surrounded in front of him, a trace of panic flashed across his face, and he summoned up the courage to ask.

"You are Gu Yan?"

The leader was quite indifferent, after looking Gu Yan up and down, he confirmed.

"I'm Gu Yan, may I ask what you can do with me..."

Before Gu Yan could finish his sentence, he was coldly interrupted by someone who came.

"Mr. Yan Ge and Mr. Xu Ge jointly recommended you to His Majesty, please come with us!"

After hearing what the visitor said, Gu Yan's face was full of disbelief, and he couldn't help confirming.

"What... what, what did you say?"

"Elder Yan Ge and Elder Xu Ge of the cabinet jointly recommend this official to His Majesty?"

Perhaps the patience had been exhausted, the person who came did not answer Gu Yan's question, after glancing at Gu Yan, he immediately ordered his subordinates to lead the way, and walked away on his own.

"Wait, I'll go with you!"

Seeing this, Gu Yan hurriedly took three steps in parallel, followed the pace of the people who came up, and marched towards the Forbidden City together.

……

The Forbidden City, the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Your Majesty, all the things you ordered your slaves to do before have been done."

As soon as Lu Fang entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she knelt down respectfully and reported to Jiajing.

"Well, I see, get up."

I saw Jiajing dealt with it quite perfunctorily, the brush in his hand didn't stop, and his face was full of concentration.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After receiving Jiajing's consent, Lu Fang just slowly got up from the ground.

At this moment, Lu Fang's heart was full of curiosity.

"What is it that can make His Majesty so selfless?"

Time passed by so slowly. During the whole process, Lu Fang didn't make any sound, and the whole person was like a statue, waiting quietly.

After a long time, Jiajing put down the brush in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and laughed loudly.

"Haha, it's finally finished, Lu Fang, come and take a look."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Lu Fang, who had been waiting on the side for a long time, heard this, and immediately stepped to the desk.

When he saw the works completed by Jiajing, his face was full of horror, and he trembled.

"Your Majesty, this... this is!"

Jiajing was not surprised by Lu Fang's reaction, nodded and explained.

"Well, that's right, this is the world map I drew earlier!"

"It's just that this map is more detailed than the one I drew in the Guozijian earlier, and there are more places marked on it."

After hearing Jiajing's words, Lu Fang immediately asked in fear.

"May I ask Your Majesty, is this map prepared for the fleet that will sail around the world at that time?"

"Well, yes, don't you see the specific route marked on it?"

Facing Lu Fang's question, Jiajing nodded, and then patiently explained.

"This is my Daming, starting from Daming, passing through Jiaozhi, Tianzhu, then passing through the strait here, and then..."

Lu Fang looked along the place Jiajing pointed, and soon, a complete circumnavigation route appeared in Lu Fang's mind.

Afterwards, I saw Lu Fang's expression was agitated, and she suddenly knelt down on the ground and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty Shengming, in this way, there is absolutely no possibility of failure!"

"At that time, when the fleet returns, it will be able to prove that your Majesty's theory is correct."

Hearing Lu Fang's words, Jiajing's face was full of helplessness, and he helped Lu Fang up from the ground and explained.

"I sent the fleet this time not just to prove that the theory I put forward is correct, but to have a more important purpose."

"Look here!"

After Jiajing finished speaking, after the ink on the paper was dry, he turned it over carefully, and pointed to the sweet potatoes and corns he had drawn on it with his own hands.

"Your Majesty, did you send the fleet to find these two things?"

Lu Fang looked at the place Jiajing pointed out. Not only was there a physical map drawn on it, but there were also corresponding notes to describe its appearance and taste.

"Well, that's right, I sent the fleet this time to find these two things!"

"Lu Fang, do you know that if we have these two things, the people of Ming Dynasty will never have to go hungry again."

Jiajing looked away from Lu Fang, looked at the scenery outside, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Majesty, you just said that as long as you have these two things, the people will never have to go hungry again?"

After hearing what Jiajing said, Lu Fang might have been too excited, her body began to tremble slightly uncontrollably, saying every word.

"Well, that's right, as long as we have these two things, the people of my Ming Dynasty will no longer have to suffer from hunger."

Jiajing just nodded his head with a calm expression.

"Besides, I have already marked the specific place on the map just now!"

"Just follow the map and you will be able to find these two things."

Perhaps because he was tired of watching, Jiajing withdrew his gaze, and then added.

Afterwards, Lu Fang knelt down on the ground with a 'plop', crying.

"Your Majesty is holy, slave... slave..."

Lu Fang choked with sobs and could no longer speak.

"Get up, I am the father of hundreds of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty, and the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty are all on my shoulders!"

"The common people are naked and starving. As their father, I have the obligation to let them get rid of this kind of life."

"I want the children to grow up strong, the elderly to be well-off, and the common people all over the world to regain their confidence in me, Da Ming, and make them feel proud from the bottom of their hearts that they were born in Da Ming! "

"No matter who it is, as long as he dares to stand in front of me, I will make him regret coming to this world!"

After hearing Jiajing's murderous words, Lu Fang's eyes became more determined.

He will do his best to help His Majesty achieve this goal!

Even in the process, it doesn't matter how many people die.

"My servant is willing to swear allegiance to His Majesty to the death, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

I saw Lu Fang's face was calm, and after three respectful kowtows, he said word by word.

"Well, get up."

Seeing this, Jiajing withdrew his gaze from Lu Fang and ordered.

Immediately afterwards, Jiajing sat back on the dragon chair again, rubbing the dragon head carved on it with his hands, wondering what he was thinking.

At this moment, a eunuch came in from outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation and reported respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Gu Yan is already waiting outside the palace."

"Well, let him in."

Jiajing said, got up and poured himself a cup of hot tea, and then ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After the eunuch took the order, he left the Hall of Mental Cultivation straight away.

A while later, under the guidance of an eunuch, Gu Yan entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as he entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he knelt down on the ground with a 'plop' and saluted Jiajing respectfully.

"My humble minister, Gu Yan, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Well, get up."

Seeing this, Jiajing waved his hand and gave orders casually.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After getting the emperor's permission, Gu Yan just got up from the ground.

And since it was the first time to meet the emperor, Gu Yan couldn't help being a little nervous, and beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead.

"Do you know why I asked you to come here this time?"

Jiajing didn't talk too much nonsense, and went directly to the topic.

"Report to Your Majesty, I don't know."

Facing the emperor's question, Gu Yan's face was full of humility. After pondering for a moment, he replied.

"Yan Song and Xu Jie recommended you to me as the commander-in-chief to lead the fleet that sails around the world."

Jiajing had a panoramic view of the expression on Gu Yan's face, and a smile appeared on his face, explaining to him.
