Quickly wear "I am the empress"

Chapter 161 Fighting for Hegemony in Troubled Times Guo Shengtong (42)

However, what disappointed Deng Yu was that until Guo Yong was sentenced to death, there was no word against Zhiyu from the Guo family.

The bamboo slips Rizhiyu gave them that day recorded all the evil things they had done over the years. As long as they didn't really want to cause too much trouble with Zhiyu, they would not continue to make trouble.

After Guo Yong's matter was resolved, Zhiyu's camp welcomed the son of destiny from this side.

Looking at Liu Xiu who was half-kneeling below, Zhiyu helped him up with a smile on his face, "Master Liu, please get up. I will take care of the matter of picking up your wife to come to manuscript city."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu's face was filled with gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhiyu looked Liu Xiu up and down, and suddenly thought of a legend.

It is said that when Liu Xiu was born, a vision came from the sky, a stem with nine ears. I don’t know if this is true. If it is true, if Liu Xiu is sent to farm, the food output of the land under her rule will not be reduced. rise……………

Thinking of this, Zhiyu's eyes brightened when she saw Liu Xiu. She immediately waved her hand and made Liu Xiu the chief agricultural officer, making him responsible for the agricultural development of the land under the rule of Prince Ding.

Hearing this, not only Liu Xiu, but also everyone who came to Zhiyu with Liu Xiu were dumbfounded. What happened to Da Sinong? Liu Xiu was a general in charge of agricultural production.

Liu Xiu's cronies suddenly felt dissatisfied. They raised their hands and said, "Prince Ding, I wonder what specialties this great minister has?"

Zhiyu nodded, "As the saying goes, before the troops are moved, food and grass go first. Agriculture is related to the national destiny of the entire country. I have never been able to find a suitable person to take charge of it. Now that I have met Mr. Liu, I know in my heart that this position is very important." He belongs to none other than him.”

As he spoke, Zhiyu looked at Liu Xiu and assured: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, although I will make you a chief agricultural officer, you can also hold a position in the army."

"I heard that you have a grudge against Liu Xuan. When I send troops to attack Liu Xuan in the future, you can go out with the army to avenge your brother."

Liu Xiu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately knelt down to Zhiyu: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhiyu shook his head with a smile, made Liu Xiu's men Feng Yi, Yao Qi and Zhu You generals, and sent them directly to Wang Jing on the battlefield. Wang Ba and Zang Gong were sent to the Ministry of Punishment, and Ji Zun was sent to the Ministry of War.

Now that she is starting a business, it is time to establish a complete bureaucratic system. She plans to directly adopt the system of three provinces and six ministries. After the scientific examination, the prototype of three provinces and six ministries will appear.

With Liu Xiu's defection, the scientific examination was about to begin. During this period, many scholars from all over the world flocked to the manuscript city, and the demand for residences in the manuscript city exceeded the supply.

Fortunately, Zhiyu had already made preparations and built a house specifically for the people who came to do the scientific research. Otherwise, in the middle of winter, some people might freeze to death in the city.

Zhiyu's move touched many people. In these troubled times, it is hard not to feel warm in people's hearts to have such a person in power who cares about the people.

Since it was winter now, Liu Xiu had been reading farming books at home since he was named the Grand Secretary of Agriculture. However, Guo Zhiyu couldn't see that he was idle and immediately sent him to supervise the production of agricultural tools.

System: "Zhiyu, wouldn't it be a bit overkill if you asked Liu Xiu to farm?"

"You can ask him to fight for you. If he is lucky, he will win the battle."

Zhiyu shook his head, "You also know that he is lucky. If he leads my troops to support himself, who will I cry to?"

"It's better to let him farm for insurance. Anyway, he used to farm before. Now that he is appointed as a farmer, it will allow him to return to his old career."

In November, the scientific examination at Dingwang Mansion was held as usual, and at the same time, improved manuscript city paper began to appear on the market.

As soon as the thin manuscript city paper was launched, it was sought after by scholars all over the world. The supply exceeded the demand every day, which directly made Zhiyu make a lot of money.

At the same time, due to the emergence of manuscript city paper, Zhiyu became famous in front of people all over the world. Now, no one in the world, from the dignitaries to the common people, knows the name of Zhiyu.

After the results of the scientific and literary examinations came out, there were a total of 300 people on the list, all of whom were assigned official positions by Prince Ding.

At the same time, Prince Ding's Mansion announced that a martial arts test would be held in Prince Ding's Mansion in the coming spring, and all martial arts practitioners from all over the world could come to the city to participate.

After the news spread, many people with martial arts skills were preparing to come to Gao City to take the martial arts test after the Chinese New Year. After all, those who took the scientific and literary examinations had actually obtained official positions. If they went to take the martial arts test, they might Can find an official position.

Wancheng, looking at the flawless white manuscript paper in his hand, Liu Xuan was extremely upset. Since the appearance of this paper, the hearts of scholars all over the world have turned towards Guo Shengtong...

"Come here, send someone to send a message to Liu Xiu and ask him to find out how to make the city paper."

Liu Xuan, who didn't know that Liu Xiu had already carried him away, ordered. After hearing this, the eunuch beside him respectfully responded with a "yes" and then left the hall to prepare a letter to Liu Xiu to convey Liu Xuan's instructions.

Under the gate of Gaocheng, Liu Xiu had been waiting here early in the morning, because today was the day when his wife Yin Lihua arrived in Gaocheng.

It was winter, the sky was full of snow, and the outside of the city was covered with snow. I don’t know how long he had been standing under the city gate, but his head and shoulders were already covered with white snow.

Just when Liu Xiu was waiting impatiently, Zhiyu in a red cloak quietly arrived at the city gate.

Seeing Zhiyu and the people behind her, Liu Xiu saluted quickly, "I have seen the prince, the prime minister, Guo Neishi, and Mr. Liu."

"Master Liu is exempt."

Zhiyu nodded slightly to Liu Xiu. Now she liked Liu Xiu a lot. Since Liu Xiu went to supervise the production of farm tools, the craftsmen have made many farm tools that can reduce manpower and material resources. It is really a happy thing.

After the others returned Liu Xiu's bow, they stood quietly behind Zhiyu, but Liu De was a little curious, "Mr. Liu, why are you standing here in the snow, but who are you going to pick up?"

Liu Xiu smiled and nodded, "I received the news that my wife will be at the manuscript city today, so I will pick her up here."

Liu De nodded, "I see, Mr. Liu and his wife are really deeply in love as a couple."

Hearing this, Zhiyu smiled and joked, "What? Are you envious?"
