Dressed as a villain eunuch, he was robbed by the world because of his sand sculpture.

The next day, Yue Fuling finally started her day's work.

Originally, her job content only had two tasks.

Open the door of Jinluan Palace and call to court.

Wait for the officials to finish the quarrel and call down to court.

But the big boss gave her extra tasks.

In the Jinluan Hall, there are hundreds of officials.

When everyone saw Yue Fuling standing under the dragon chair, they couldn't help but take a second look.

Everyone knows that because of the late emperor, the new emperor was extremely repulsive to eunuchs.

There are no eunuchs around.

Now, eunuchs are allowed to go to court.

Although he was just serving tea and water, there were rumors in the palace these days that the emperor favored a young eunuch.

Now that I saw it with my own eyes, all the officials were extremely curious about this little eunuch.

Yue Fuling cleared her throat and said, "If you have something to do, please leave. If there is nothing, you will retreat."

Jun Jing glanced at her.

The moon is shining brightly, and I look at my nose and heart, standing in a military posture, very responsible.

Below, Zhao Zheng was the first to come out, "Your Majesty, the construction of the canal in the North has been stopped. If we don't start the construction, I am afraid that next year the North will still have no harvest, there will be famine every year, and I don't know how many people will die."

Zhao Zheng's face was full of pain.

Beidi is the four cities occupied by the late emperor. They are located in the north and are collectively called Beidi.

The famine lasted for ten years, and disaster relief was provided every year.

After Jun Jing ascended the throne, he began to pay attention to this place.

Jun Jing was wearing a dragon robe and a crown, sitting upright in the dragon chair, and said calmly: "I already know what Zhao Qing said, but someone told me yesterday that the north is not suitable for growing rice. If it is to grow something else, it will not be possible." There will be famine.”

Zhao Zheng's eyes widened, "Who is talking nonsense? As early as the late emperor's time, I personally tried it with several city lords in the North. The only thing suitable for planting in the North is rice. Although the harvest is not good, it can still survive. But other crops cannot survive. Your Majesty, please do not listen to the slanderous words of traitors."

Yue Fuling received Jun Jing's signal and said, "I don't like hearing what you say. What do you mean by a traitor?"

Zhao Zheng pointed at her, "It turns out it's you, the eunuch!"

Yue Fuling: "..."

Zhao Zheng sneered, "A castrated dog dares to speak in the Jinluan Palace. I think you are impatient with life."

"Oh, I'll go!" Yue Fuling rolled up her sleeves and threw Jun Jing's advice behind her, "It's a quarrel, right? Come on, don't be timid."

She ran down the steps in a few steps and stood in front of Zhao Zheng, "You said you tried to grow rice in the north. Where's the evidence? Let alone the city lord, only farmers know best about farming. You know nothing!"

Zhao Zheng was furious, "What do you, a eunuch, know? At that time, my father and the heads of villages and townships in the north were also planted together. My father had a clean life and served the country and the people. Even the emperor grew up under my father's watch. Is it difficult for me to do so?" Don’t you want to say that my father is colluding with Beidi?”

Yue Fuling: "You take moral kidnapping first, but no one dares to take second place. Collusion is what you said, not mine. I will tell you today that Northland is not suitable for growing rice, but wheat. , and it can definitely survive! It can also feed the people in the North!"

Zhao Zheng sneered, "I heard some rumors somewhere and thought it was right. Wheat can grow in the North, but it cannot mature at all. Rice can only be grown in the North. It was a common knowledge ten years ago."

Zhao Zheng suddenly knelt down in front of Jun Jing, extremely aggrieved, "Your Majesty! My father has always been in charge of the Northland. The late emperor passed away and my father resigned due to illness. It was the Emperor who said that I followed my father to the Northland many times. After understanding it, he handed over the canal issue to Wei Chen.

But now, His Majesty asked a eunuch to point his nose at me and scold me. What on earth did I do wrong? "

Yue Fuling's eyes widened, "Holy shit, I cried and complained if I couldn't make a fuss, are you three years old?" !

At this time, a warm and pleasant voice attracted Yue Fuling's attention.

I saw a man turning in front, dressed in green clothes, with gentle eyebrows, and smiled reassuringly at Yue Fuling.

Then he said: "Master Zhao, why bother with a eunuch? Get up quickly."

Zhao Zhengdao: "Prime Minister, I know that many corruption cases have been found in the construction of the canal since ancient times. I have repeatedly asked the emperor to release money, which will definitely cause gossip.

But I really do it for the people of the North. For so many years, I have seen their harvests fail every year, and they suffer from famine every year. They are all skinny, and I feel heartbroken.

Before my father resigned, he was worried about the Northland, so I took over the canal issue. I repeatedly urged the bank to build the canal as soon as possible so that the people would suffer less.Who would have thought... who would have thought that before the Yan Guan said anything, a eunuch would curse at the minister. "

Zhao Zheng was sincere and aggrieved, and many officials initially blamed Yue Fuling.

"Eunuchs are not allowed to participate in politics. This slave is too bold."

"How dare you speak rudely to a court official, you deserve to die."

"We have been growing rice in the north for ten years. If there were any problems, someone would have reported it to us. Now it's your slave's turn to talk too much. I suggest that this audacious slave be executed immediately."

Yue Fuling narrowed her eyes.

Dog Emperor, cheat her!

Although she was quarreling under orders, if she didn't understand the quarrel, nothing could be done about it today.

Fortunately, she has been studying hard.

In today's battle, she would bet on the dignity of the top school student.

"After ten years of farming and ten years of famine, you still think it's right. Have you seen the water in the pond outside? It's less than one-tenth of what you thought."

"You!" The scolded official knelt down next to Zhao Zheng, "I beg the emperor to execute this arrogant slave!"

Jun Jing glanced at the prime minister under him.

The man in green looked at Yue Fuling and said softly: "Why don't you apologize to Mr. Zhao?"

Yue Fuling lost her temper and slapped her neck, "I don't! I said you can't grow rice in the north, so you can complain. If you don't have any intentions, prove to me that you can't survive with any other kind of rice. If you can prove it, I will This life is for you!"

The Prime Minister frowned slightly, "Don't act recklessly."

The Emperor's investigation into the North has made no progress.

The emperor's intention was just to use this little eunuch to beat Zhao Zheng, and then secretly check to see if Zhao Zheng would reveal any flaws.

But this little eunuch was so impulsive that even the emperor only suspected that there was something wrong with the famine in the North, and no definite evidence had yet been found.

How could he be so sure that Beidi could grow something else?

The township and county annals submitted by Beidi in the past ten years all focus on rice cultivation. It is impossible for farmers not to know what to plant.

Yue Fuling said with a straight face, "I'm not messing around."

She looked into the Prime Minister's eyes and said, "There must be something wrong here!"

Xie Qianlan was shocked by this look and suddenly didn't know what to say.

He also suspected that there was a famine problem in the North, but on the one hand, the North was far away, and on the other, if the Northland species could be well fed, why would they choose to go hungry?

It was said that there were corrupt officials, but he had already checked it out, and all the grain and silver for disaster relief every year went into the hands of the people.

Xie Qianlan looked at Jun Jing.

Jun Jing's eyes kept falling on Yue Fuling's face. He was silent for a long time and said, "Bring up the three township chiefs from Beidi."

Zhao Zheng's expression changed, "Your Majesty."

Jun Jing raised his hand, "I summoned them to ask about the canal. Zhao Qing doesn't have to worry."

Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly: "The emperor still doesn't believe in Wei Chen after all."

Yue Fuling was annoyed when he saw him like this, "The Emperor is not your father, why should I trust you?"

Zhao Zheng was unconvinced, "Why do you think the emperor will believe you?!"

Yue Fuling held her head high and said, "With my righteousness."

Xie Qianlan's eyes slightly curved and he stood beside Yue Fuling calmly.

Three scrawny young men were brought to the temple.

"Slave Zhou Gui, please... pay homage to the Emperor."

The three of them had never seen such a scene before and were too frightened to speak.

Only one dared to speak, and his voice was shaking.

Yue Fuling walked up to Zhou Gui and said, "Let me ask you, why only rice is grown in the North? Everyone knows that crops cannot be single. Is it true that other wheat and soybeans cannot survive in the North?"

Zhou Gui buried his head and replied: "Yes, except for rice, other crops cannot mature."

Yue Fuling: "Have you planted it yourself?"

Zhou Gui answered smoothly: "I have planted everything. Only rice can survive."

Zhao Zheng smiled proudly, "Young eunuch, you still want to get involved in the court. Could it be that the emperor has forgotten the lesson of the late emperor."

The late emperor favored and trusted the eunuchs, which led to a foul atmosphere in the court.The concubine colluded with the eunuchs and almost overturned Fengyi's country.

Jun Jing tightened his fingers and listened to Yue Fuling continue to ask: "You said you have planted it, then let me ask you, how did you plant it? What season did you plant it? How many crops are there in a year? What is the reason for the failure of the plant? Lack of water. ?Wheat doesn’t need that much water, and insect infestation? Insect infestation won’t make it impossible to plant.”

Zhou Gui shrank back when asked.

Yue Fuling pressed forward step by step, even half-kneeling in front of him, looking into Zhou Gui's eyes, "Answer me! How many times have you planted it? Where? Why can't it survive? Soil, climate, seeds, there is always a reason!"

Zhou Gui was originally afraid when he arrived in front of the emperor. Now he was forced by Yue Fuling and almost retreated to the entrance of the palace. He broke down and shouted: "I don't know, my father said that if you sow, you will not survive. How do I know so much? I've never planted it, I've never seen it, there's only rice seeds, and I've never seen anything else, don't ask me..."

Yue Fuling sneered, "There are only rice seeds. In other words, it's not that other seeds can't survive, it's that they have no choice but to plant rice."

Xie Qianlan's face changed drastically, and Jun Jing's face above him also changed instantly.

The reason they had been looking for was found.

Although they had vaguely felt that something was wrong before, because of their high position and the distance of the north, they had no idea what the races of the people there were.

Not to mention asking as specific as Yue Fuling, and not as sure as she was about what should be planted in what place.

I never thought that rice could only be grown in the north, not because of weather conditions, but because of human control.

A blind eye prevents them from seeing the truth.

At this time, a man wearing a soldier's armor walked up to Yue Fuling and knelt down: "Your Majesty, Chen Xiu has something to report."

Jun Jing said: "Chen Xiu, if I remember correctly, you are from the North."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Xiu glanced at Yue Fuling, and his voice suddenly choked up, "My parents and brother both died of famine. But famine in the North is never a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!"
