"It's only 788 kilograms, it's not more than a thousand kilograms..." Some officials began to whine after hearing the numbers.
"No!" Many officials immediately reacted - this is the output of three-point land, not one acre of land!
Three-part land produces 788 kilograms. Wouldn’t that acre of land produce 2626.7 kilograms per mu? Oh my god, this is ten times the yield per mu of ordinary wheat! Ten times!
So the ministers rushed to the minor officials of the Ministry of Revenue and asked loudly:
"Take it seriously? You guys read it right?"
Several minor officials from the Ministry of Revenue were watched by the big bosses and were frightened. But after they looked carefully, they confirmed:
"That's right, it's 788 pounds!"
...
The crowd suddenly became quiet, but after a while, it exploded with a "boom"...
"Oh my God, I have never seen such a crazy thing. Zixiu (the name of a minister), please pinch me and see if I am dreaming..."
After a while, there were bursts of pain among the ministers...
"It seems to be true..." Many people finally reacted.
At this time, some clever ministers had already knelt down in front of Zhengde who was watching the scales to show the numbers, which scared Zhengde...
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! With this divine food, the world will be far away from hunger and will not be far from the Great Treatment!"
Zhengde was stunned at first, then ecstatic - isn't it? With the divine grain yielding 2,000 kilograms per mu, isn't the world almost going to be treated? And this is something that even his father, Hongzhi, and the man who was called a wise ruler by his ministers, could not do.
Moreover, not only did Emperor Hongzhi fail to do it, but the previous founding emperor Hongwu and the talented and stubborn Emperor Yongle failed to do it... Even Qin Emperor and Han Wu, Tang Emperor and Song Zu could not do this...
"Maybe, I will become a great emperor..." Zhengde looked at the air in front of him and smiled foolishly.
The ministers understood Zhengde's current state. With this divine grain coming out, Emperor Zhengde would have been famous throughout the ages. And they could also follow Zhengde to gain popularity and be famous in history...
Therefore, while Zhengde was YY, the ministers suddenly elected Li Dongyang and other literary leaders to write essays to commemorate this historical moment. Even they shouted to carve steles and record this historical moment. The most important thing is that they wanted to carve their names on the stone tablet for future generations to admire...
Li Dongyang is also a wise man, so he naturally knows how to write...
"In the fifth year of Zhengde, on November 20th, the capital Xiannongtan. The emperor personally led Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Liu Zhong, Liang Chu, Yang Yiqing... and other hundreds of ministers gathered to visit the farming platform..." Li Dongyang was very kind and wrote the names of the hundreds of ministers present in the preface, making all the ministers present honored. Then, there was a gorgeous parallel prose that praised the peace of the world, the wise monarch and the virtuous officials, which was a sign of prosperity...
The ministers were very excited and excited, watching Li Dongyang write articles. But the more Marin looked, the more he became, the worse it was...
"Old Ge, why don't I have my name? I brought this sweet potato..." After saying that, Ma Lin looked at Li Dongyang with a gaze.
Li Dongyang patted his head:
"Sorry, I almost forgot about Master Ma..."
Then, at the end of the article, Li Dongyang mentioned that this divine grain was presented by the overseas vassal lord Marin...and then, it was gone...
Marin was a little dumbfounded, but Zhengde, who had woken up, patted Marin on the shoulder and comforted him:
"This is a feast for the wise rulers and ministers, you are an outsider..."
That look, that meaning, is clearly saying - if you can mention you at the end, it is considered that your ancestral tomb is filled with smoke...
...
Then, the 788 kilograms of fresh sweet potatoes suddenly became a super treasure in the eyes of the wise rulers and ministers. Zhengde directly used a dragon robe to cover a few kilograms of red soil with soil residue, held it in both hands, and brought it back to the Forbidden City. Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe and other ministers were not willing to fall behind. They held a few sweet potatoes one by one, followed Zhengde with a pious face, and returned to the Forbidden City with a solemn face...
Some ministers at low levels could not grab the sweet potatoes, so they had to carry the baskets that had previously filled the sweet potatoes and follow the bosses and return to the Forbidden City.
Because the sweet potatoes are so magnificent, Zhengde and his ministers gave up on a car to show their solemnity and walked back to the Forbidden City...
Then, the people of the Ming Dynasty were surprised to find that one day in the early winter of the fifth year of Zhengde, the emperor and ministers were walking on the streets of the capital with a pious face, holding a pink thing...
...
But after arriving at the Chengtian Gate (Tianan Gate), Zhengde and his ministers did not rush back to the palace city, but turned east and rushed to the Taimiao near Chengtian Gate...
It turned out that the reason why Zhengde and his ministers were so formal was to go to the Taimiao to worship and report good news to their ancestors...
After entering the Taimiao, Zhengde excitedly placed a pile of sweet potatoes wrapped in the dragon robe respectfully in front of the Taimiao Hall case, and then knelt down with a pious look on his face. The ministers were the same, and placed the sweet potatoes they held in front of the Taimiao Hall case. Then, according to their positions, everyone knelt down behind Zhengde...
Ma Lin looked around, but he didn't see these guys leaving a place for him. In desperation, he had to kneel beside the baskets next to the queue...
The young Zhengde's face was flushed with excitement. He excitedly confided to a row of tablets in Taimiao:
"Father, my ancestors, today, the unfilial descendant Zhu Houzhao brings the greatest auspiciousness since the founding of the Ming Dynasty!"
"This auspicious auspiciousness is called sweet potatoes, and comes from the country of Taixi. This auspiciousness is different from the ordinary auspiciousness. It can only be seen but not used, and cannot be eaten. Today, this auspiciousness is not only eaten, but also delicious. It is not only delicious, but also has a very high yield!"
"My Daming grain yield per mu is usually only two or three hundred kilograms. And this auspicious auspicious product called sweet potato can actually reach more than two,600 kilograms per mu, which is almost ten times the per mu of ordinary grain yield!"
"Ten times! Ten times! Father, listed as ancestor..."
"Hozhao knew that he was not a kind lord and holy king. Houzhao was young and playful, so he almost made his slave Liu Jinchao disrupt the government. Fortunately, there were all the upright and capable ministers left by you, the father, in the court..."
...
Speaking of this, the ministers who were kneeling with him showed a look of satisfaction...
...
"My son is playful and never thought of being able to be as good as a wise monarch like his father. However, I didn't expect that just this year, the Thai king Malin traveled thousands of miles to send the extremely high-yield divine grain such as sweet potatoes to the Ming Dynasty. It can be seen that the head of the Ma Kingdom, Da Ming, is sincere..." As he said that, Zhengde looked at Malin kneeling next to the basket with praise. Malin immediately straightened his back and responded...
"God blesses the Ming Dynasty! This divine grain is obtained by the Ming Dynasty court. Although Hu Zhao is not talented, I hope that the people of the world will no longer suffer from hunger from now on. Everyone can eat and wear a good meal and live in peace and contentment, so that they can live a peaceful life. Only then can they live up to the country that Emperor Taizu has worked hard to build, and they will not let down the efforts of the ancestors..."
...
After confiding, Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao brought his ministers to bow continuously, and Marin followed suit...
...
After the sacrifice in Taimiao, Zhengde announced that because of the divine food, the court would pardon the world and would pardon prisoners who were charged with crimes other than treason, deceiving the monarch and murder.
