Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Chapter 88: Bullying the king and ignoring the superior?

Hongwu four years.

After spring.

Here in Yangzhou, the people were notified early.

The rice harvested from last year’s bumper harvest cannot be used as rice seeds for breeding.

There are also some people who do not believe in evil and want to secretly stimulate the hair, but they all end in failure.

The notice from the government office is that transplanting seedlings can be postponed. Of course, this time it is not mandatory like last year.

After last year's hybrid rice incident, the people of Yangzhou have unlimited trust in Yang Xian.

Those who had the rice seedlings pulled out by Yang Xian personally at that time are even more grateful to Yang Xian now.

Of course, they thought that Yang Xian would give them a new batch of hybrid rice seeds like last year.

After experiencing high yields and bumper harvests, the people naturally did not want to go back to the previous days.

Beijing.

Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Yuanzhang is high above the Dragon Court.

"Tianfu is virtuous!"

"Haiyu Xianning!"

"Holy blessings!"

The ministers shouted three times.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand slightly.

"Zhu Qing is flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After the simple ceremony, Pan Longyun stood up with the crowd, subconsciously raised his head, and met Zhu Yuanzhang's smiling eyes.

You must know that Zhu Yuanzhang was always known for his seriousness when he went to court, and he rarely smiled like he does today.

Does your Majesty already know about my investigation?
That’s right, His Majesty has great supernatural powers, so it’s not surprising to know.

As soon as he thought about this, Pan Longyun became more and more looking forward to what would happen next.

Follow the process.

Zhu Yuanzhang first summoned the ministers who were about to leave Beijing, and then asked about the border war.

After the routine procedure is completed.

"Your Majesty, I have the talent to participate in the performance!" Pan Longyun shook up his official robe, stepped out of the queue, and bowed.

"speak."

Because a new official evaluation policy was about to be announced, Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy at this time, including his facial expression.

But all this changed in Pan Longyun's eyes.

Pan Longyun thought this was what Lao Zhu expected of him.

"I join in the work of Lord Yang, the magistrate of Yangzhou, but I deceive you and ignore my superiors!"

The smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face froze.

To deceive the emperor and ignore one's superiors is the crime of murder.

In the main hall, it immediately became quiet.

Only the words "Deceive the king and ignore the superior" are left, and the lingering sound echoes.

All eyes were focused on Pan Longyun.

At this moment, Pan Longyun felt that all his hard work for more than half a year was worth it.

He held his head high and said passionately: "According to Wei Chen's investigation, Yangzhou had a great harvest last year, and everything was fake!"

Pan Longyun's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake.The officials were in an uproar!

You must know that last year, Zhu Yuanzhang was full of praise for Yang Xian because of this incident, and said six good words in a row in Fengtian Palace!
And later, at the Autumn Festival Ceremony, he personally presented rice ears from Yangzhou and led the officials to drink rice-flavored porridge made from Yangzhou rice.

What if this is all false.
The consequences could be disastrous!

This is a slap in Emperor Zhu’s face! !
You must know that at this moment, behind Fengtian Hall, there is a nearly two-meter-long rice specimen hanging! ! !
Almost subconsciously, a few ministers glanced up quietly and quickly buried their heads deeply.

Zhu Yuanzhang just watched and listened, his face expressionless, and the emperor's skills were incalculable.

"Weichen has investigated and found that there is not so much grain stored in the Yangzhou granary. Your Majesty can send someone to check it, and you will know the authenticity soon." Pan Longyun said loudly.

Indeed, as Pan Longyun said, this is easy to verify.

Yangzhou is only more than 200 miles away from Yingtian, and it doesn't take much time to go back and forth.

Everyone was waiting to see how Zhu Yuanzhang would react.

At this time, Prince Zhu Biao stood up.

"If Pan Yushi doubts Yang Shenhou because of this matter, then I can give you an answer. Last year, the northern border areas were in a shortage of food and wages, and several major granaries in the capital and other places did not have enough food to cope with it."

Zhu Biao turned around, looked at Manchao Civil and Military, and said loudly.

"At this time, it was Yang Shenhou who stood up. He told me that most of the grain stored in Yangzhou Prefecture could be transported to the border areas. It is precisely because of this batch of grain and rice in Yangzhou that the border crisis was solved."

"Your Highness, you are right. If Yangzhou's great harvest is fake, then where did the grain shipped to the border come from? It can't be conjured up by your Lord Pan's mouth." Wei Guogong Xu Da said this It was time to stand up and speak.

This matter involves an urgent military situation.

It was Prince Zhu Biao who planned it personally, so even several people from Zhongshu Province did not know the specific details of the matter.

When the ministers heard this, they suddenly realized that Yang Xian had already achieved such great military exploits at such an early time.

When things have reached this point, the truth has come to light.

The matter involved secrets, and it was normal for Pan Longyun not to know. He was just abiding by one of his responsibilities as a censor, so no one could blame him.

"What, Pan Yushi, do you have anything to say?" Seeing Pan Longyun still standing outside, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but raise his tone a bit, and said impatiently.

Pan Longyun's face turned red, just when he mustered up the courage to speak.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, Hu Weiyong, is ready to participate in the performance!"

Pan Longyun's words that were held in his throat were abruptly interrupted by Hu Weiyong, and he could only swallow them back.

He turned his head and glanced at Hu Weiyong, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but Hu Weiyong didn't pay attention at all.

In the end, he could only apologize to Zhu Yuanzhang and return to the queue.

Wait until the ministers have finished participating.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and announced several new policies of the Ming Dynasty to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Looking down at the officials with shocked expressions on their faces, Zhu Yuanzhang showed a proud smile on his face.

The trace of unhappiness that Pan Longyun had stirred before had now dissipated like light smoke.

On this day, a new dynamic of vitality was officially injected into the long-dormant officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.

Afterwards.

Pan Longyun specially waited for Hu Weiyong in a secluded place outside the palace.

Pan Longyun, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, saw Hu Weiyong coming from a distance, and immediately walked up and said: "Master Hu, why did you stop me from telling me that thing in the court just now? You didn't say that before. "

Hu Weiyong did not answer in a hurry, but looked around first to make sure there was no one around.

Then he slowly said: "Master Pan, I did that for your own good!"

"For my own good?" Pan Longyun was stunned.

He seemed to have heard this sentence countless times. When he met Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong, they seemed to say this every time.

"Your Majesty can't blame you for participating in Mr. Yang's performance even if it fails, because you are just performing your duties. Not only will His Majesty not blame you, but he will also secretly praise you in his heart, praising you as a person who dares to speak out. The censor." Hu Weiyong said.

Pan Longyun thought to himself, this is really the case.
