This time Liu Chan felt quite good about Zhu Yejian, who was under the name of the royal family. Seeing that the Eight Niu Plow had finished plowing the land, he immediately ordered someone to bring in some chairs and invited several senior ministers to sit down. He also ordered someone to bring over the cold drinks that had been prepared long ago, and picked up a small bowl filled with ice cream. , handed it to Zhuge Liang beside him, and said respectfully: "Father, please use it."
"Your Majesty has really insulted this old minister!" Zhuge Liang quickly bowed and saluted, and said with sincerity and fear, "This old minister cannot afford to be treated like this by your Majesty."
"Speaking of these eight ox plows, most of them are due to you, Xiangfu. This bowl of ice cream is my thanks to Xiangfu for all the people in the world." Liu Chan looked sincere.
"This eight-oxen plow was made by the supervisors under your Majesty's inner government. This is your Majesty's credit. How dare I take credit for it?"
Everyone behind looked at it and sighed, Your Majesty is really a benevolent king, and the Prime Minister is really a humble minister.
So in this harmonious atmosphere where the monarch and his ministers get along well with each other, the Eight Ox Plow became something that the Prime Minister discovered and his Majesty vigorously advocated, and even used all the supervisors under the royal family to build it, so that this thing could appear in the world. As for Feng Yong, the inventor of the Eight Niu Plow, most of his credit was quietly lost.
In the end, Zhuge Liang couldn't resist His Majesty's enthusiasm and accepted the cold drink. The emperor nodded with satisfaction, took another small bowl, and ordered it to be sent to several important ministers. He also specially asked someone to send a bowl to each of Feng Yong, Zhao Guang and Wang Xun below.
Nowadays, a new type of cold drink is circulating in the inner palaces of the powerful people in Jincheng, called ice cheese. Everyone who has tasted it says it is extremely delicious and is very popular among girls and women in the boudoir. It is a pity that this thing is extremely rare. Many people only hear its name but have never seen it. Moreover, no one has ever heard of it being sold in the market, and there is nowhere to buy it.
The emperor was so happy today that he rewarded each of his ministers with a bowl. This was the first time for many ministers to eat this. They felt that it was really refreshing to eat such a bowl of ice cream under the scorching sun.
At that moment, someone came up to flatter me: "This thing looks like ice, but it is delicious. It is extremely smooth and tender when eaten. It is really a wonderful thing to relieve the heat. I was thinking about the ice cheese that my wife and children said a few days ago. What is it? Who could have such an ingenious idea? Unexpectedly, it was spread in the palace. His Majesty took out such rare things to reward ministers and others. He is really kind and benevolent."
Are you here to disgust me?
Liu Chan glanced at Liu Yan, who was approaching him, and twitched the corner of his mouth. He was in no mood to eat the last bite of ice cheese in the bowl. Look at the chair sitting under you, and then look at the eight-oxen plow in the distance. Aren't these things made by the eloquent farmer?
Stealing my sister-in-law...
Liu Chan still loved the queen very much at this time, and had no thoughts of finding a sister-in-law like he did later. But thinking about the fourth lady, she always clamored to enter the palace to play in the past, but now not only did she come less often, but even when she came, she always acted like Feng Langjun, which made the emperor feel that his status in his sister-in-law's heart was rapidly declining. It feels like a child having his favorite toy taken away, which is very unpleasant.
How could Liu Yan, who had been flattering Liu Bei for half his life, not see that something was wrong with the emperor's expression? His heart skipped a beat. What did I say wrong?
The Prime Minister next to him coughed slightly, glanced at Liu Yan indifferently, and turned to Liu Chan and said: "Your Majesty, I have tried this eight-oxen plow. It seems that it is indeed a useful tool for reclamation. Why don't we go back and discuss this matter now?" What happened in Hanzhong?"
Liu Chan nodded, with a smile on his face: "What the father said is true."
The land of Hanzhong has been deserted for a long time, and it is very difficult to cultivate it again. The royal family should set an example for this, and send people to build a royal village in Hanzhong, and make due efforts to cultivate Hanzhong. It is natural!
As for the supervisors of the various industry supervisors who had made outstanding contributions to the emergence of Ba Niu Li, they were called forward to prepare to receive rewards.
"May your Majesty live forever and be happy forever!"
When he bent down to salute and shouted these words, Feng Yong was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, someone had taught him the rules of meeting the emperor before. Otherwise, if I really imitate those minions on TV, lying on the ground like a dog chewing shit and shouting "Long live long live long live long live", don't say that I will feel too ashamed, even if I laugh, others will laugh to death.
"Get up!" Adou's voice still had the deepness of adolescence, sounding a bit mature, "Are you Feng Yong? Lift your head and let me see."
Feng Yong raised his head when he heard this, and finally saw clearly this figure who would be praised and criticized in later generations.
His round face looks a little happy, even a little honest. Even wearing a dragon robe, you can see that his figure is a little fat. It can be said that he does not have the majesty of an emperor at all. After changing his clothes, he must be an emperor. The big brother next door look.
Feng Yong naturally showed a flattering smile and tried hard to leave a good impression on Adou, who still had forty years to live as emperor.
Feng Yong and Feng Langjun, someone has said this name in his ears many times, and Adou was thinking at the same time, this time I can finally see the real person.
But when he saw Feng Yong's silly smile, he couldn't help but murmured in his heart: He looked pretty, but he couldn't be considered handsome. And why did he look so stupid when he smiled? Could it be that Si Niang likes to play with fools like this?
A fat boy, oh, I should say he can be called a man, because not only does he have a wife, he even has a child soon. A fat man stared at him with an incomprehensible look, which made Feng Yong feel a little nervous. Could this Adou really be knocked stupid by Liu Da'er?
The old demon Zhuge next to him coughed slightly.
"Tian... ahem, Feng Aiqing, you first donated the Quyu plow, and then made the Eight-oxen plow. In total, your contribution is not small. It is not the case for me to not reward people for their merits. This time I give you advice. As for your position as an official, I hope you will make new contributions in the future. Don’t let me down." Liu Chan sat upright on the chair with his hands in front of his knees, but his tone was a little casual. At the same time, he secretly thought in his heart, sitting on this chair, neither When you feel tired, you can also show your majesty, which is really a wonderful thing.
Oh, I've been promoted. I said that I finally got 500 acres of land last time. Why didn't there be any movement this time? It turned out that they were waiting for me here.
"I thank your Majesty for the gift."
Feng Yong bowed and saluted again.
All the officials and ministers are in charge of advisors to deal with the situation, and there are no ordinary things, only the orders.
In other words, this official is of no use at all, it is just an honorary title. One day the emperor thinks of himself, or if he has something to ask himself, just ask him to go over and chat with him. If nothing happens, he can just stay at home and collect his salary. That’s it. Yes, yes, it doesn't matter if you have a lot of money, but it is certain that you have less things to do and are close to home. The emperor has not been able to be the master of the country in the past ten years, and he probably can't remember himself as a person. I think this official position means a white-collar salary.
Feng Tubiao thought happily, unaware that he had already been recorded in Adou's small blacklist.
Compared with Feng Yong's mentality of not caring about gains and losses, Wang Xun has been in a state of lightness as if he was in the clouds since he returned to the mansion from the fields outside Jincheng. As one of the chief supervisors of various industries who made the Eight Ox Plow, he was naturally awarded the title of Yilang, with an official rank of 600 shi. Like the official of Jianyi, he was also an extremely idle position, even more so than the official of Jianyi. The official position of Yidufu is even smaller. But for Wang Xun, it was enough to make him so happy that he didn't know what to do.
