Chapter 261 Celebrate Golden Branch

"Zheng Zhizhou, we are leaving," said Jia Changchao.

"Let's go slowly," Zheng Lang said lightly, not sending him off, but after being together for so long, the three officials knew that his personality seemed violent, but in fact he was still indifferent.

Like the three of them complained about the disaster victims, they complained for a long time, but did not explain. Finally, they asked, and then they told the truth and understood how far-reaching he was thinking. Unless they were hindering him from doing something of great significance, it wouldn't matter how he looked at him or how he said he was.

Don't expect officials who are higher than him to be flattered, but you won't be too slow to be inferior to others. Don't expect officials who are lower than him to put down their straits and win over them, but you won't be too lazy to show off your boss's identity.

I don't expect him to send him to the three of you affectionately.

"But..." Cai Xiang said embarrassedly.

The three criminals were taken back, and Zheng Lang quickly dealt with it. He quickly distributed all the fields in Jingminwei for investigation. He gave the three victims compensation and distributed fifty acres of land to the Ding family. Only fifty acres, although Ding Laosan died unjustly, half of the reason was caused by his own fault.

Another hundred acres of land were cut out from it and given to the families of the three brothers. There were very few land, and the family only had more than 30 acres. To prevent conflict, they exchanged with the people of Youminwei. All the other property was confiscated. However, no one in Taipingzhou said that they would deal with the unfairness.

Most of them think that the handling is too light.

The rest is the affairs of Song Xiang and the other two.

However, the three great talents discussed for most of the time, but they didn't know how to report after they went back.

"But what?"

"We can't go back and report like this."

"Then how do you think you should report it?"

"..." Cai Xiang couldn't answer. Could it be that he would lie when he went back or lie, and the criminal would have to go to Beijing for interrogation again.

Zheng Lang said again: "If the emperor asks, you can answer one for me, and I have another answer."

“What’s the answer?”

"It cannot be said that the emperor is a benevolent monarch. This kindness is not only to the scholars and officials, but to all the people. He cannot regard the scholars and officials as treasures, but to treat the people as straw dogs. Lu Gong, I have praised him for doing practical things many times. Wang Gong, Song Gong, Cai and other ministers are all famous in the world. Du Yushi is an almighty and omnipotent minister. Fan Gong is selfless. This case is not difficult to solve. As long as the real murderer is enforced, I will apologize to the ministers and give other answers. There is also a bigger surprise, for Your Majesty, to you."

Isn't it difficult to ask for it?

Not difficult!

What is the murderer trying to do?

If you want to burn hundreds or thousands of people to death, what kind of life case will it be? Even if Zhao Yuanyan does it, he will have to punish him. Besides, the court is not a dark court, so he made a fuss, but Zheng Lang has to admit that the distribution of power in the court is reasonable, Lu Yijian is doing practical things, Wang Zeng, Cai Qi, and Song Shou are famous, and Du Yan is not only upright as the chief censor, but also considers things for a long time. Fan Zhongyan is in charge of Kaifeng Prefecture, and the emperor is even a benevolent monarch. Will he let the murderer go?

But why did Zheng Lang say it out?

A trace of suspicion flashed in the three of them.

Zheng Lang said again: "Bring another gift to Your Majesty for me."

He clapped his hands as he said that.

Fan Zhongyan brought a piece of grass to Zhao Zhen as a gift, so don’t expect Zheng Lang to make a real treasure to "bribe" Zhao Zhen. The two have completely different personalities, but in some aspects they have many similar characteristics, such as backbone.

But not grass.

More than a dozen bundles of sugar cane.

Zheng Lang said: "This was what I secretly taught people to plant last winter, and it was just the harvest season."

Sugarcane was widely planted in the Song Dynasty, and there were many different types of varieties, such as the coarse and fine classifications, which can be divided into Kunlun, jelly flute, blue gray, and beetle. The first three types can be refined. Pickle can be used as sugar, but can not be refined. Or it is divided into four types: Du, Xi, Huan and Red. Red can only be eaten raw. Pickle can be used as sugar. Xi can be used as sugar, but it is not good. It is light in color. Scholars do not like it. The best one to make frosting is Du cane. Or it is divided according to the region, including Jiang, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guang, Shuchuan, and Jinghu South Road. Among them, Fujian Futang, Zhejiang East Si, Ming, Guangdong Pan, Yu, Shuchuan Guang, Han, Sui, Ning are the most famous. It cannot be mistaken. It is not the best in Lingnan. Lingnan only has Fan and Yu, and other varieties have all kinds of disadvantages.

Zheng Lang introduced the fourth, the Ming Dusu.

The planting method is also different from later generations. I remember that it was only in the spring that the sugarcane seeds were taken out from the cellar, and the small fields were raised, and the fields were transferred to them in the late spring. It could even be interplanted in two seasons.

Now, we first choose the shortest ones, the shortest ones are dense and the buds are numerous, which is the same as in later generations. However, Zheng Lang used to test it out, and it doesn't matter. Then he digs two feet deep and the pit is wide and narrow, so he cuts off the tail of the cane, stands upside down in the pit, and covers it with soil.

It's different, first of all, the pit is deep.

The seasons are different, and you have to plant in the winter months.

The latter part is almost the same. The deep rakes the soil to make the soil loose. Then, after the cold and frozen winter, the sugarcane will grow more easily in the second year.

Because it consumes the most land-intensive efforts, once planted, it is impossible to hybridize any crops. The land must be left off in the second year, or even for two years. If it is used to farm other crops, it will not be replanted after one or two years. However, the benefits of planting sugarcane are greater than the benefits of planting crops. Some local governments would rather not avoid this benefit, and they strictly prohibit planting sugarcane. However, in order to survive, the people, especially the narrow Fujian people, are forbidden to plant them.

It should also be noted that Zheng Lang has planted it, and the greatest confidence is to open a lot of big ditches. Don’t impeach me. It is because of me that I have produced a lot of grain, and it is reasonable to plant some sugarcane. Now there are so many victims who want them to live a better life and make it more reasonable.

It cannot be cut down until October of the next year. It will affect its sugar content too early or too late.

So this batch of sugarcane was just cut down.

I dare not move the general direction. There is a problem with plant evolution. In the Song Dynasty, it was planted in the winter months, so it had to be planted in the winter months.

Some changes were made in small aspects, and the nutritional bowl was made. Not only did they transfer the single plant, but they deliberately used the nutritional bowl to cultivate the seedlings, and they cultivated the seedlings before the small field. It was not until spring that they went to the field.

There are some changes. If you add cake fertilizer, if you want it to be sweet, it doesn’t work if you have fertilizer, and it doesn’t work if you have manure. It’s just a tall and strong one. Only cake fertilizer, especially rapeseed cake fertilizer, can sweeten it.

But it is hard to say that the sugarcane a thousand years ago is completely different from the sugarcane a thousand years later. It was not until summer came and saw the growth of sugarcane in those acres of land that it was confirmed that the small field nutritional bowl seedling cultivation did not delay its growth, but instead made it grow better. It gradually revealed some news, and in fact, Zheng Lang really took it to heart at this time.

Still no one knows his exact plan.

Can't say it.

I will do it first, like a big dike, and you can't let me destroy the dike. You can only look at the consequences I have done.

He asked the Yang brothers to peel off the skin and took a bite and said, "It's so sweet, you can eat a few pieces before leaving."

We are still in the mood to eat sugarcane?

It has been peeled, just eat it, and after a bite, it turns out to be so sweet.

Then he took more than a dozen bundles of sugarcane on the road.

Dongyue and his group returned to the capital.

The murderer was arrested, and the officials of the Ministry of Justice came over to ask, "Where do you have to write the confession and case story to us, otherwise how can we investigate the murderer behind the capital? Otherwise, how can we decide to hand it over to Dali Temple or Kaifeng Prefecture?"

But at least two of the three were big names. The Song Dynasty and Jia Changchao had a very prominent position, at least not much worse than the officials from the Ministry of Justice. The officials from the Ministry of Justice had to come here in person and ask the reason politely.

The three of them said the story with a frown.

The officials of the Ministry of Justice were also in trouble. How did you do this? Could it be that Zheng Lang and more than a dozen ghosts were written on the document, and after a while, the truth of the case came out.

Another official didn't believe it and asked the He family Sangou. When Sangou arrived in the capital, he felt better. He lowered his head and raised his head and couldn't survive. But these evil spirits didn't think they could come to the capital to find trouble for themselves.

He told the truth openly.

The officials of the group were dumbfounded and said to the big men of the East Mansion again, "We are not easy to deal with, what do you think?"

Several big shots said to Zhao Zhen again.

Zhao Zhen was also dumbfounded and called out the three of them. There were more than a dozen bundles of sugarcane, which were not a good thing. He left a bundle in the Secretariat, and the rest were taken to the palace. The officials were asked to peel the skin, and the group ate the sugarcane. It was good, well planted, and it was very sweet.

After eating sugarcane, let’s talk about the main things.

He said this again, and then Jia Changchao said, "Your Majesty, we have not gone in front of us, and we heard water, fire, and wet behind us. I vaguely felt that it was not only Ding Laosan's death, but we went to Dingjiazhuang together."

This is nonsense, I went to see it because I was haunted and curious. I didn't expect it at that time.

All I can think of is the three brothers of the He family.

But if you say this, it proves that you are not a person who eats a good meal and is also wise. Afterwards, it will be useless to not do it.

Zhao Zhen nodded.

Jia Changchao said again: "After hearing the screams, I also came out and saw it with my own eyes. The shaking of the coffin lid and the swaying lanterns may be Zheng Zhizhou's use of some means. The case from more than ten years ago was about to come out and recognize the three brothers of the He family at a glance. It may be Zheng Zhizhou's wisdom. Mr. Chen couldn't understand why there were so many sounds, crying and shouting floating in the night sky? Although there was a little fog at that time, there was a moonlight. There was nothing in the sky except the stars and moons and some clouds, and there was not even an inhabited night bird. And how those talismans rose to the sky, rising very high, and finally couldn't see the naked eye."

"Is it really a haunted?" Zhao Zhen looked at the prime ministers inconclusively.

Then look at Lu Yijian and Song Shou.

He first compiled the Book of Music, and then Song Shou led a large group of literati to compile a total of 419 volumes of "The General Regulations of the Zhongshu", and then Lu Yijian reads it every day, talks it every day, and talks it to everyone. As long as he read this book, even a mediocre man could become the prime minister.

So amazing.

In history, Sima Guang also compiled "Zizhi Tongjian". When it was his turn to be the prime minister, he competed with the domineering female Gao Taotao, who was more confused?

Zheng Lang guessed that there were many reasons why Lu Yijian took it so seriously. Zheng Lang had not seen the original book yet, and probably had a good repair. Since Zhao Yuanyan burned the storage warehouse with fire, many precious books were burned. The emergence of this book has unique value.

In addition, Lu Yijian wants to have a good relationship with Song Shou.

If the heavens are angry and people are resentful, they will not be able to do things together, and they will not be able to do things. The reason is just like praising Fan Zhongyan as a prefect and being appointed as the prefect.

But Song Shou and Lu Yijian were both relatively speechless.

After searching through the entire set of "General Examples of Zhongshu", there is no similar example.

It is like Zheng Lang pretending to be a good person, just like Zheng Lang exposes the trick of knowing goodness, sets up a method to break the method.

What means can make people speak, cry and cry in the sky, and make everyone unable to see it. What means can they use to make the talisman grow wings and fly into the sky?

Zhao Zhen asked again: "It's really a haunted? Can I summon Taoist Priest Qingxu to the capital?"

I have to ask, the rare quietness, my husband disagreed and issued an edict, and the censors might come to spit out the slobbery again.

Song Xiang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you can't. Zheng Zhizhou said that there is another answer, probably because he used some means, but he didn't say it."

We can't make a mistake. We really used the means to summon Qingxu to the capital as a god, and the face of the entire capital officials was also lost.

"Why not say it?"

Song Xiang repeated Zheng Lang's original words.
To be continued...
