Chapter 1123 Auspiciousness
"Your Majesty, didn't Luo Xin say that the food would arrive in two days? So, the food has already arrived in the south at this time. Presumably Luo Xin, Jin Yiwei, and Dongchang's Zhezi are on the way at this time. It will be delivered to His Majesty in two days. With the brochures of Jinyiwei and Dongchang corresponding to each other, we will naturally know the truth of the matter."

"That's right!" Emperor Jiajing nodded and said, "We'll just wait for two more days."

Don't talk about Emperor Jiajing, let's talk about Luo Xin.Three days before Luo Xin left Hangzhou, the army that suppressed the bandits in the south had already left Hangzhou, and headed to the north first to suppress the bandits, clearing the way for Luo Xin's grain transport team.Therefore, Luo Xin hardly encountered any rogues along the way, but occasionally met some small groups of rogues. How could these small groups of rogues dare to rob when they saw such a huge army?

However, if they don't rob, it doesn't mean that Luo Xin will let them go.Luo knew in confidence that these small groups of rogues were basically dispersed by the army ahead, and the remaining rogues were left.If they were allowed to leave, these small groups of bandits would gather and pose a certain threat to the grain transportation team.Therefore, as soon as Luo Xin's scouts found a small group of bandits, Luo Xin immediately sent a thousand cavalry to exterminate them.Under the attack of a thousand cavalry, those small groups of rogues had no resistance at all. On the contrary, those cavalry made a lot of contribution.All of them are smiling.

Two days later.

Royal Palace.

Emperor Jiajing once again received an account from Luo Xin, Dongchang and Jinyiwei.This is the second book that Luo Xin and the others gave to Emperor Jiajing after the food arrived.Xu Jie and Gao Gong stood in front of Emperor Jiajing like cats smelling fish, looking at Emperor Jiajing's face.

Emperor Jiajing still looked at Dongchang's Zhezi first, and couldn't help smiling when he saw it.Because in Dongchang Fanzi’s brochure, he saw that Luo Xin really got grain, 2000 million shi. Dongchang Fanzi stated in the brochure that he personally went to the ship to check that it was all grain.Moreover, the price of food in the south has been reduced to twice that of last year, and the people in the south live and work in peace and contentment.

Emperor Jiajing put down Dongchang's brochure, and hastily picked up Liu Shouyou's brochure. After reading it, he excitedly picked up Luo Xin's brochure, read it carefully, and really laughed out loud this time.Looking at Xu Jie and Gao Gong's anxious faces, he pointed to the excerpts of Dongchang and Jinyiwei and said:

"Take it and have a look."

Xu Jie and Gao Gong hurriedly picked up the brochure. After reading it, Gao Gong couldn't help but lost his mind, and exclaimed:
"Luo Xin really deserves to be Daming's God of Wealth!"

Xu Jie looked at Zhezi, feeling as if his heart was frozen.

"It's over, it's over, I didn't expect that Luo Xin could really get food, and there was still so much. If it is really as written in the brochure, there will be more follow-up. It doesn't need much, as long as there are another 2000 million shi, it will be enough for Da Ming to support When the autumn harvest arrives, the food shortage in Ming Dynasty will disappear. In this way, the internal worries will be completely resolved, leaving only the foreign troubles of Korea in the north and Japanese pirates in the south. In the name of Luo Xin, the military god, there will be no problem to solve these foreign troubles, it is just a matter of time. Have I, Xu Jie, lost again?"

Xu Jie fell silent, recalling the process of fighting Luo Xin in his heart.He was horrified to find that since he fought with Luo Xin, after each fight, his reputation would drop a bit, and there would be fewer people in his camp.If he loses like this again this time, his reputation will surpass that of Yan Song, but he is not as favored by His Majesty as Yan Song, I am afraid that his rectification career is almost over.

then……

This time the pot may be his own.

After all, at the beginning of this internal and external troubles, the whole world believed that it was caused by him bewitching His Majesty to rebuild the Yuxi Palace instead of providing disaster relief.As the saying goes, thousands of people criticize and die without illness.

By that time, more than just criticizing?
No!

I can't just leave the officialdom in such a disheveled manner. Once I leave the officialdom in such a disheartened manner, everyone will push me down, and it's hard to say whether I can keep my family and my life.

but……

How to do?
It seems that the back road prepared for himself should be carried out in advance.Immediately, a look of surprise appeared on his face and he said:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, double happiness."

"Hahaha……"

Emperor Jiajing laughed loudly, feeling that his body was ten years younger, but halfway through the laugh, he suddenly stopped, looked at Xu Jie and said:

"Double happiness?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xu Jie stepped forward with a happy face and said, "Auspicious signs have appeared in Daming."

"Auspicious?"

Emperor Jiajing sat up straight. Emperor Jiajing liked auspiciousness the most.Because he wholeheartedly seeks the Tao and long life.If there is auspiciousness, it is an affirmation of him.

"Yes!" Xu Jie nodded and said, "Auspiciousness has appeared in De'an, King Jing's fief. King Jing has ordered someone to invite Xiangrui to the capital and raise him in Huangzhuang, the suburb of Jingwang. But King Jing is not sure that it is Xiangrui. If it is not auspicious , and stained His Majesty's eyes. Therefore, I invited the old minister to Huangzhuang to watch it yesterday, and when the old minister saw the auspiciousness, he recognized what it was."

"What is that?" Emperor Jiajing asked with interest.

"Kirin!" Xu Jie said loudly.

"Kirin?"

Emperor Jiajing's voice suddenly rose, the unicorn is the highest among the many auspicious signs, there has been a unicorn since ancient times, and it is said that the sage was the first.

How did this make Emperor Jiajing calm down, looked at Xu Jie and said, "Really?"

Seeing Emperor Jiajing's surprised expression, Xu Jie was ecstatic.I secretly said in my heart:
"I finally found the reason why Yan Song was favored. As long as you do what he likes, so what if you, Luo Xin, made great contributions?"

"Of course it's true, the old minister saw it with his own eyes."

Emperor Jiajing's eyes shone brightly, but then shrank again.

"Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"Yes, the old minister saw it with his own eyes."

"King Jing invited you to watch the unicorn?"

"Yes!"

Xu Jie sighed in his heart, he was afraid that his secret defection to King Jing would be exposed.Just expose it.As long as King Jing can be put on the throne, it will be better than anything else.Waiting for the king of King Jing, this Daming is still up to the old man.

Emperor Jiajing narrowed his eyes slightly. Throughout the Li Dynasty, as the teacher assigned by the emperor to the prince, it was to assist the prince.Now Xu Jie is King Yu's teacher, and even the highest-ranking teacher is cheering for King Jing. It is really unbearable whether it is King Yu, and Xu Jie is disappointed.Or is Xu Jie an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, after seeing King Jing, he felt that King Jing was more likely to inherit the Datong, and turned his head to King Jing?
Emperor Jiajing suddenly felt less excited when he heard the unicorn just now.It's just that it's a unicorn after all, and it's the auspiciousness he needs, so he smiled and said:

"Then I'll take a look."

Seeing Xu Jie said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the appearance of the Kirin is a grand event through the ages. It needs a grand ceremony to welcome you."
