Chapter 745: The Great Controversy - "The Book of Earthly Fertility"
Emperor Mu, Lao Situ, and Marquis Xixing all looked strange when they heard that Hanbao went out to look for high-yielding grains again. Others tried to avoid Hanbao, but Xiyun Hou actually sent his Hanbao empress. He was really worried.
.
However, everyone took a closer look and felt that Yao Yun's method was extremely clever and achieved multiple results with one stone.
Because the Hanbao Empress committed too many crimes during the ancient war, Chi You followed the trend of heaven and cast a witchcraft on her. The heaven and earth revolted. Under the protection of Emperor Xuanyuan, the empress was saved from death, but she could not enter the sky. She only had enough energy.
Only the power of luck, the power of spiritual thoughts or the merits of heaven and earth can wash away the murderous evil of the Drought Demon Empress, and finally break Chiyou's witchcraft.
For this reason, for thousands of years, the sheep of the various Xia dynasties have been sheared countless times by the Han Ba empress. Every time the Han Ba is born, even the princes of the Xia Dynasty have to pay filial piety to the empress, and the princes from all sides are even more miserable.
This time, Yao Yun's act of sending Hanbao Empress was extremely bold and risky, taking chestnuts from the fire, but it was the best way to deal with Hanbao Empress, and it was also good news for the entire Xia Dynasty.
Old Situ was already very fond of Yao Yun. When he saw that Yao Yun had solved a big problem for Zhu Xiachao, he praised him unabashedly:
"Wonderful! Marquis Xiyun, your method is good. It is better to teach people to fish than to give them fish. With the continuous merits and the power of the people, I think she will not rob the heaven for a long time."
"Hahahaha~" The ministers laughed dryly, with a look of helplessness in their smiles.
Emperor Mu also nodded slightly at this moment and praised: "Marquis Xiyun, you did a good job this time. Although you were a little bold, it was effective. The empress killed too many sins, and the power of luck can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause.
Only the power of sentient beings' thoughts and the merits of heaven and earth can help them wash away the sins of killing. This time Ai Qing has solved a big problem for the Celestial Empire!"
"The emperor has given me too much praise. I just did my duty and didn't dare to take credit. I just followed nature and pushed the boat as it went!"
Yao Yun was very calm in the face of the "promotion" of Zhu Xiazi and the ministers of the Celestial Dynasty. If you have done something like the Drought Demon Empress, you will have merit and the Celestial Empire will benefit; however, if you get into trouble, today will be so beautiful and glorious.
How powerful is the backlash.
Previously, when Empress Hanbao came to Xi Kingdom in a rage, it was a sign of backlash.
But fortunately, now that the empress has brought back [Glazed Rice], he has tasted the benefits. Even if the empress does not find other high-yielding grains in the future, he does not need to worry about taking risks.
"Well, it's good that Marquis Xiyun is not greedy for merit!" The emperor, Emperor Mu, flew over the outskirts of Xidu with his ministers. When he saw the busy figures of farmers hauling fertilizers on carts underground, he sighed with emotion:
"There is a reason for the high grain yield in the Xi Kingdom every year. The farmers are hard-working and wise. The little mortals actually know how to replenish the soil and look for things to fertilize the earth. Yes, yes, people all over the world should follow the example of the people of the Xi Kingdom.
.”
"The Holy One's words make sense!" The ministers agreed, nodding in agreement, with smiles on their faces, and did not hear the hidden meaning behind the words.
However, when many ministers heard the emperor's words, their expressions were very strange, and they had some guesses in their minds, but no one pointed them out.
As Yao Yun was the person involved, he naturally understood the voice-over of Emperor Di Mu.
Before that, Yao Yun offered the art of fattening to the Celestial Empire, and the Emperor Mu cast a meaningful and intriguing look at him. At first, Yao Yun just guessed and didn't dare to think too much, but now the Emperor praised him first.
He was greedy for credit, and then placed credit for the fertilizer on the vast number of working people, which indirectly diluted Yao Yun's sense of existence.
Agricultural experience is the crystallization of the sweat and wisdom of the working people. Although Yao Yun provided many ideas, it is the working people who make concrete improvements and adapt measures to local conditions and carry them forward.
Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with Emperor Dimu's statement.
However, if it involves the struggle for destiny, the struggle for the mind power of all people, the struggle for the merits of heaven and earth, and the struggle for the common master of the world, it is clear that Emperor Mu wants to suppress Yao Yun.
Food is the most important thing for the people, and if food is to be harvested, the art of fertilization is very important. In a big way, fertilizer is related to the reproduction and survival of the people in the world. The power of the thoughts and merits of all people involved can be imagined.
Emperor Mu's light words directly reduced Yao Yun's role in this to an infinite extent.
If the Emperor Mu's words were confirmed today in front of the ministers of the Xia Dynasty, various fertilizer-making techniques would be promoted and spread in the future, and the power of sentient beings and the merits of heaven and earth that Yao Yun had harvested would be greatly reduced.
Emperor Mu's previous sentence, "The Marquis of Xiyun is not greedy for credit," obviously meant to knock Yao Yun down, telling Yao Yun not to be too greedy, accept good things at the first sight, give in proactively, and credit the people of Xi State with the credit for the fertilization of Xi State.
As the saying goes, the whole world is not the land of the king, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers. All the people in the world are the subjects of the emperor. The people under his command have obtained great merits and virtues, and the power of sentient beings. The common people are not blessed to be able to bear it, and they will eventually become cultivators.
The "Xuanyuan Renhuang Jing" belongs to the emperor and has become the political achievement of this generation of emperors, praising his benevolence and virtue.
Yao Yun's mind was spinning with thoughts, and he shouted mmp in his heart, you are such an emperor, you are thinking of picking lonely peaches!
Sure enough, without status and strength, even if Yao Yun wanted to benefit the common people, it would not be an easy task. It involves the power of sentient beings and merit, which is too involved.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor wants to take away your credit. You invented the techniques of retting and composting. You are really going too far to deceive others."
The second elder Wu Tong was also a person who had experienced the struggle for the throne and had seen the world. He immediately recognized that there was something in the emperor's words. He was secretly furious and his teeth were itching with anger. He hurriedly sent a message from his mind to remind Yao Yun that Mo
To suffer a loss.
The bald dragon originally heard the emperor praising his son for being so honorable, but when he heard what the second elder Wu Tong said, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and he also followed the voice in his mind and said: "Damn~ This guy Di Mu is too insidious, my son,
This time we can’t back down and fight him head on, don’t be timid!”
The second elder hurriedly said: "Hey, you must not do it. It is not advisable to associate with the evil Emperor Mu, lest the emperor suppress you."
The bald dragon said disdainfully: "If we give in this time, the emperor will not suppress our country of Xi?"
"Two elders, stop arguing." Yao Yun saw one person and one dragon arguing in his ear, and knew that he still needed him to make the decision, so he thought about it for a while and said:
"What Uncle Long is saying is that the Xi Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger. No matter whether we give in or not, Emperor Dimu will still be the same Emperor Dimu. He will still suppress us if we should. We can't take any chances and think that retreating will keep us safe.
Being stubborn sometimes leads to more severe oppression;
Besides, the benefits are too great this time, and we have no reason to give in!"
Yao Yun said this to the second elder Wu Tong, Bald Long and others, and then resolutely glanced at the ministers of the Celestial Dynasty who were inspecting the cultivated land in Xidu together with the ministers in front of him, walked forward, and saluted respectfully, neither humble nor overbearing:
"To the Emperor, the people of Xi Kingdom are indeed very wise. Farmers have a wide range of sources of fertilizer, including human excrement, manure, compost, green manure, and biogas fertilizer. This has made the originally barren land of Xi Kingdom extremely fertile, with fertile soil everywhere.
Gu wrote it into a book called "The Book of Earthly Fertility" and dedicated it to the emperor and the people of the world!"
As soon as these words came out, the emperor and the ministers all looked at Yao Yun with shocked expressions on their faces.
