Xu Shouyun walked very fast, but he couldn't make any sound when walking.

It's Haishi, and the entire palace has fallen into silence again. For some reason, there have been a lot fewer imperial troops in this area recently.

There are basically no patrols.

From Wuning Hall to Tianxiang Courtyard, it only took Xu Shouyun less than half a quarter of an hour to appear at the same place.

As before, Xu Shouyun squatted 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 detect him.

This is the benefit of the sixth grade viscera.

When the level of martial arts reaches the sixth level, according to the regulations of the Wei Dynasty, you can take the position of a partial general in the army.

It's a pity that I am a eunuch, otherwise I could live a good life in a military camp.

Of course, this is just a thought.

About two-quarters of an hour later, a familiar figure appeared in front of us again.

"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 but be moved, even more moved than before.

Perhaps it's because the jade has returned to Zhao, and seeing such a stunning beauty, how could my heart not boil.

"This subordinate has met your Excellency."

"Thank you for your support."

Xu Shouyun came back to his senses with a smile on his face.

"Providing support is a small matter. Now I have to ask you something. Stand up and speak."

Jiang Ling spoke.

She was very upset today. What happened in the court left her at a loss for a while.

I’m afraid I’ll have to do it if I don’t want to convert rice into mulberry.

For the time being, she had no way to solve it. If she forced the matter to be delayed, the trouble she would face would be even greater, and it would be nothing if everyone said nothing.

I'm afraid there will be pressure from other parties.

That's the real trouble.

However, Jiang Ling knew in her heart that in the final analysis, it was because of the weak imperial power that this kind of thing happened. If his father really did not do anything when he was in power, would the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty dare to do this?

"Sir, please speak."

Xu Shouyun stood up and smiled.

"This morning at court, hundreds of officials mentioned the matter of converting rice into mulberry, but His Majesty seems to be still thinking about it and plans to shelve the matter for now."

"Unexpectedly, the entire court opposed it, both civil and military, which made His Majesty Long Yan furious and retreated early."

"What do you think about this?"

Jiang Ling spoke out. This was the wording she had thought of on the way. It would not only prevent Xu Shouyun from doubting herself, but also get some other insights from Xu Shouyun.

"Stop this matter?"

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly shelve this matter?"

Hearing this, Xu Shouyun couldn't help but be shocked. Changing rice to mulberry could make the Wei Dynasty die a few years earlier, so why did it go so smoothly?

Seeing Xu Shouyun so surprised, Jiang Ling felt a little angry inside. How much does this guy want the Wei Dynasty to perish?

But after all, she wanted to see what magical powers Xu Shouyun had, so she suppressed her inner resentment and spoke calmly.

"I don't know about this, but I heard that late yesterday night, His Majesty invited Mr. Guangyun, the Imperial Master, to have a long talk in the palace for two hours."

"Perhaps Mr. Guangyun saw through something, which affected His Majesty's decision."

Jiang Ling cast the suspicion on her mentor.

After hearing this, Xu Shouyun couldn't help but remain silent.

"There was such a strange person in the Wei Dynasty, who actually understood the essence of changing rice into mulberry."

"Fortunately, the Empress of Wei is stupid enough, otherwise, she would really have to let Wei live a few more years."

Xu Shouyun's first sentence was okay, but the next sentence made Jiang Ling feel angry and wanted to give Xu Shouyun a head-scratching blow.

What does it mean for an empress to be stupid enough?

You are stupid.

Your whole family is stupid.

Jiang Ling really wanted to beat Xu Shouyun.

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

"What do you mean by this?"

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

"Sir, think about it. The matter of changing rice to mulberry was not proposed a day or two ago. It took two years."

"There is a saying that planning leads to decision-making. Among the ministers who proposed changing rice to mulberry, aren't they smart people?"

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

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

Xu Shouyun patiently explained the current situation.

Jiang Ling agreed with Xu Shouyun's words, because when the matter of changing rice to mulberry was raised, extremely detailed content was given.

It's just that it was stuck in two places at the time, so it hasn't been dealt with for a long time.

Firstly, my father is not in good health.

Secondly, the civil and military disputes between the Manchu Dynasty and 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 that this matter would be a big pit.

"Now that they have a perfect plan, these ministers may have already acted secretly. As soon as they give an order, they will start buying land on a large scale, waiting to make a fortune."

"However, because the political enemies in North Korea and China are making things difficult, we have been preparing for it for a long time."

"But with the death of the previous emperor, the new emperor ascending the throne, and taking this matter so seriously, these officials couldn't wait and started buying land like crazy."

"After all, these ministers are patient, but the local wealthy gentry families are impatient. The news has spread, and these noble families are also talented people."

"Both are afraid that the other will take advantage of this to earn a lot of silver and become prosperous, so they would rather buy fields at high prices than let the other party rise."

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

"The empress suddenly said she wouldn't do it. Sir, do you think they are willing to agree?"

"To put it more simply, sir, if you spent a huge sum of money to buy three thousand acres of land and spent thirty thousand taels of silver, of which twenty thousand taels of silver was borrowed at high interest rates."

"As long as the emperor starts to implement the conversion of rice to mulberry, these 30,000 taels of silver will directly become 100,000 taels of silver. But suddenly the emperor says that he will not implement it. Are you willing?"

Xu Shouyun analyzed this matter from an economic perspective.

It’s true and easy to understand.

Jiang Ling was also fascinated by what she heard.

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.

"In other words, it is now a dead end. The matter of changing rice to mulberry must be implemented. Even if His Majesty turns against him, it will be useless?"

Jiang Ling asked tentatively.

After Xu Shouyun said this, she became even more certain that converting rice into mulberry must be a curse.

So she has decided that she cannot implement this no matter what, even if it offends the civil and military officials of the court.

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

"To put it bluntly, I didn't go to court and don't know the situation in the court, but I can estimate that the reason why His Majesty Long Yan was so angry at the court this morning is definitely because of those officials who opposed the change of rice to mulberry in the past."

"In today's morning meeting, I also objected to His Majesty's refusal to implement the conversion of rice into mulberry."

"Right?"

Xu Shouyun spoke up, and his words were categorical.

And Jiang Ling's expression changed again.
