Appoint me as a spy, but the contact person is actually the empress

Chapter 11 He guessed it right again!

Xu Shouyun's pace was fast, but he couldn't make any sound while walking.

It was Haishi, and the whole palace fell into silence again. For some reason, there were a lot fewer imperial troops in this area recently.

Basically no patrolling.

It took Xu Shouyun less than half a quarter of an hour from Wuning Palace to Tianxiangyuan, and he appeared in the old place.

As before, Xu Shouyun crouched in the grass. This time, he held his breath and completely restrained his energy. Even if the imperial army passed by, it would be difficult to find it.

This is the benefit of Liupin offal.

Martial Dao has reached the sixth rank, according to the regulations of the Great Wei, one can be mixed up as a partial general in the army.

It's a pity that I am a eunuch, otherwise I can live a good life in the army camp.

Of course this is just a thought.

About two quarters of an hour later, the familiar figure reappeared before his eyes.

"Why are you hiding here again?"

Jiang Ling's figure appeared, still dressed in plain clothes.

Seeing each other again, Xu Shouyun still couldn't help being moved, even more excited than before.

Perhaps it was because he had returned to Zhao, seeing such a stunning beauty, how could his heart not be boiling.

"This subordinate has seen the adults."

"Thank you, sir, for your support."

Xu Shouyun came back to his senses, smiling all over his face.

"Promoting and supporting is a trivial matter. There is one thing I have to ask you right now. You stand up and talk."

Jiang Ling spoke.

She was very upset today, what happened in the court made her at a loss for a moment.

Changing rice into mulberry, I'm afraid I have to do it if I don't do it.

For a while, she had no way to solve it. If she forcibly delayed the matter, she would face even greater troubles.

I am afraid that there will be pressure from other parties.

That's the real trouble.

But Jiang Ling knew in his heart that in the final analysis, this kind of thing happened because the imperial power was weak. If his father really didn't do a thing when he was in power, would the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty dare to do this?

"Sir, please speak."

Xu Shouyun stood up and smiled.

"Early today, the officials mentioned the matter of changing rice to mulberry, but His Majesty seems to be still thinking about it, and plans to shelve the matter for now."

"Unexpectedly, both civil and military officials in the court opposed it, which made His Majesty Longyan furious and retreated early."

"How do you think about this?"

Jiang Ling said, this is the wording she had thought up on the way, which can not only make Xu Shouyun not have doubts about herself, but also get some other insights from Xu Shouyun's mouth.

"Put this matter aside?"

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly shelve this matter?"

Hearing this, Xu Shouyun couldn't help being startled. Changing the rice into mulberry feet could make the Great Wei die a few years earlier, so it was shelved anyway.

Seeing Xu Shouyun's astonishment, Jiang Ling felt a little angry. How much does this guy want Wei to perish?
But after all, she wanted to see what supernatural powers Xu Shouyun had, so she suppressed the resentment in her heart and spoke out calmly.

"I'm not sure about this, but I heard that late last night His Majesty invited Mr. Emperor Guangyun to have a two-hour long talk in the hall."

"Perhaps Mr. Guangyun saw through something, so it affected His Majesty's choice."

Jiang Ling cast the suspicion on his mentor.

Xu Shouyun couldn't help being silent after hearing this.

"There is such a strange person in Wei Dynasty, who can see through the essence of changing rice into mulberry."

"Fortunately, Empress Da Wei is stupid enough, otherwise, Da Wei would really have to live a few more years."

Xu Shouyun's first sentence was okay, but the latter sentence made Jiang Ling's heart explode, and he wished to directly give Xu Shouyun a brainbreaker.

What does it mean that the empress is stupid enough?

You are stupid.

Your whole family is stupid.

Jiang Ling really wanted to beat Xu Shouyun up.

But for the sake of the overall situation, Jiang Ling endured the bad breath and tried to calm down and asked.

"What's the meaning of this?"

Listening to the other party's question, the flattering smile on Xu Shouyun's face became more intense.

"My lord, think about it, the matter of changing rice to mulberry was not brought up a day or two ago, it took two years."

"There is a saying called planning and making decisions. The group of ministers who proposed to change rice to mulberry are not human beings?"

"Since they dare to mention it, they must have made a detailed plan, including where to implement it, and how to implement it clearly."

"In other words, when this policy was proposed, they had the perfect plan."

Xu Shouyun patiently explained the current situation.

Jiang Ling agreed with Xu Shouyun's words very much, because when the matter of changing rice to mulberry was proposed, he gave extremely detailed content.

It's just that I was stuck in two places at the time, so I didn't deal with it for a long time.

One is that his father is not in good health.

The second reason is that the civil and military disputes in the Manchu Dynasty were too great, which led to it being shelved.

After I took office, I gradually restarted this matter. I didn't expect this matter to be a big pit.

"Since there is a perfect plan, these ministers may have acted secretly a long time ago. As long as they give an order, they will start buying land on a large scale, waiting to make a fortune."

"However, due to the political enemies of the DPRK and China making things difficult, preparations have been taking place for a long time."

"But with the death of the first emperor and the ascension of the new emperor, and the importance attached to this matter, these officials couldn't wait and started buying land frantically."

"After all, these ministers are patient, but the local gentry families are impatient. The news has spread that these aristocratic families are also elite."

"Each side is afraid that the other side will take advantage of this to earn a lot of silver and prosper, so they would rather buy land at a high price than let the other side rise."

"So, the current situation is that the matter has become a foregone conclusion. The aristocratic family and the local officials have bought a large amount of land, and now they are waiting for an order."

"The empress suddenly said no, my lord, do you think they are willing to agree?"

"Let's put it more simply, my lord, if you bought 3 acres of land with a huge sum of money and spent 2 taels of silver, [-] taels of silver was borrowed at high interest rates."

"As long as the emperor starts to change rice into mulberry, the 3 taels of silver will directly become 10 taels of silver, but suddenly the emperor says no to it, are you willing?"

Xu Shouyun analyzed this matter from an economic point of view.

It is indeed easy to understand.

Jiang Ling was also fascinated by it.

Xu Shouyun's explanation was very clear and straightforward. Compared with his teacher, Mr. Guangyun, he was not as noble as an elegant man, but he hit the nail on the head and made people suddenly understand.

"That is to say, it is a dead end now. The matter of changing rice to mulberry must be carried out. Even if His Majesty turns his face, it will be useless?"

Jiang Ling asked tentatively.

Through what Xu Shouyun said, she was even more sure that changing rice to mulberry must be a curse.

So she has decided that no matter what, she can't implement this, even if it offends the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty.

"Falling? My lord, when Your Majesty ascends the throne, how many people really support her?"

"To put it bluntly, my subordinate did not go to court, so I don't know the situation in the court, but I can predict that the reason why His Majesty was furious at the court this morning is definitely because of those officials who opposed changing rice to mulberry in the past."

"In today's early court, he also opposed His Majesty's refusal to implement the matter of changing rice into mulberry."

"right?"

Xu Shouyun spoke out, and what he said was decisive.

And Jiang Ling's expression changed again.

Because Xu Shouyun was right.
