Chapter 259 What's written in the letter?



Shengjing Prefecture is really not something that ordinary officials can control.

How can a newly crowned top scholar who has not yet taken root in the court, or has not even started to take root, manage the complex and complicated networks hidden in Shengjing? If he is not careful, he may offend others.

The emperor placed Yue Lingfeng in the position of Shengjing Prefecture Prime Minister. Although he had the prefect above him, it was like putting him on the fire.

Generally speaking, there are two ways for the top scholar in a prosperous dynasty to be promoted.

One is to be sent out as an official. If you make achievements within three years, you will be summoned back to Beijing, which means you will basically have a place in the court and your rank will not be bad.

Of course, the prerequisite is to have political achievements.

Another way is to stay in the capital and enter the Hanlin Academy to gain experience. The Hanlin Academy is a gathering place for talented people. Although it takes a long time, it is definitely safe.

This is the first case where Yue Lingfeng was neither sent abroad nor admitted to the Hanlin Academy.

Moreover, it was the position of Shengjing Prefecture Prime Minister, which could be said to be a somewhat sensitive position.

Liu Chun was actually very confused: "Princess, what do you think the emperor means by this arrangement?"

"Of course it was my Royal Brother who wanted to make it easier for me and Yue Lingfeng to meet."

Liuchun:?

"Think about it, the Hanlin Academy is in the palace. If Yue Lingfeng wants to see me, it will be difficult for him to leave the palace!"

Liuchun blinked: "Is that so?"

Wen Yu said with certainty: "It must be like this. It is definitely not that my brother wants to use Yue Lingfeng, who has a backer, to deal with the evil tendencies in Shengjing!"

Liu Chun suddenly realized what was going on: "That's it! Who in Shengjing doesn't know that Master Yue is your man? To offend Master Yue is to offend the princess!"

"Which of the high officials in Shengjing City dares to offend you, Princess? In this case, who among those dandy boys dares to put on airs and raise flags in front of the new Shengjing Prefecture Prime Minister?"

"And with Master Yue's temper, he will definitely punish me severely..."

Wen Yu waved her hand to interrupt Liu Chun: "No, no, I mean that my brother would never think like that, absolutely not!"

Liu Chun admired him: "Your Majesty is truly wise and powerful!"

Wen Yu: ...

Is the emperor's younger brother the only one who is wise and brave?

Obviously she is there!

She is not only wise and brave, but also well-educated!

Apart from her, who else in Beijing could be so intimidating? !

"No, my brother is using my tiger skin as a banner, I have to ask for some compensation!"

"But Princess, you haven't used many of the treasures that His Majesty gave you last time."

Wen Yu shook her finger: "Having it is the same as using it. I am happy to just leave it there."

As if they had telepathic connection, as soon as Wen Yu finished speaking, the rewards from the palace flowed into the princess's mansion like water.

Wen Yu looked at the list of treasures and nodded with satisfaction: "Remember to tell my brother, the more the better, the more the better."

The emperor received the reply from the palace maid:

"I remember that the Clothing Bureau dyed a piece of silk that emits a radiant green light. I believe that my sister will like it. I took it and gave it to her as a reward."

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at Yue Lingfeng who was standing at the bottom of the stairs and said, "My dear Yue, please step down."

Yue Lingfeng bowed and said, "I will take my leave."

At this time, soldiers from Xili came to report.

"General Lu, we found a huge field! It's full of flowers used to make gapan!"

Lu Ren frowned suddenly when he heard this: "Take me there."

When he arrived at the flower field, even Lu Ren couldn't help but be a little surprised. Xili actually planted so many Diyega?

It’s several acres in total!

The deputy general grabbed a Xili man and asked, "Where else can this flower be grown?"

But this Xili man could not speak the Dasheng official language, and thought that he was captured to be killed. He was so scared that he was trembling with fear, and waved his hands frantically to indicate that this Diyega was not his.

Lu Ren immediately asked someone to call an interpreter.

After the interpreter translated the adjutant's words, the Xili man slowly calmed down.

He replied in Xili: "I don't know where else it is planted. This flower field used to be a heavily guarded area. I just found out that the ones planted here are Diyega."

"Because the seeds of Diyega are firmly controlled by the royal court, ordinary people like us can't get them at all. Only the royal court is qualified to plant them. Even in Xili, Diyega is very precious and rare."

The adjutant was about to curse: "You call this rare? Bullshit!"

Xili people: ...

"It's really rare... I don't know how there is such a large flower field."

Lu Ren stood in front of the field of Diyega flowers and said coldly, "It is heavily guarded. It seems that this was planted specially for our Dasheng, but they have no chance to use it."

"Fuck him, he's such a jerk! Although everyone has to rely on their own abilities on the battlefield, this is too insidious!"

Lu Ren gave the order, "Find an artist to draw the appearance of this Diyega, and then pick one. Teams will identify it one by one. If you see this flower, you must report it immediately!"

"Send heavy troops to guard this flower field. No one is allowed to approach. Check the surrounding area carefully to see if there are other Deyega."

"There is no need for this kind of flower to exist in the world."

"Yes! General!"

Lu Ren touched the brocade bag on his chest, thought for a while, rode back to the tent, wrote a memorial and a letter to the princess's mansion.

He still remembered how much Wen Yu hated Diyega in the palace, and he should let the princess know about this.

Although he could not reveal military details on his own initiative, he could let the princess ask the emperor herself.

The princess cares about Diyega more than ordinary people do, and he will never be wrong.

Two days later, several more horses died. Lu Ren's memorial was submitted to the palace, and the letter came into Wen Yu's hands.

She originally thought it was just some sweet words and gifts from Lu Ren, and was watching while lying on the couch eating strawberries.

But she had only read half of it when she suddenly sat up straight.

Liuchun: ...?

"Princess, what's wrong with you? What did General Lu write in the letter? Could it be that there is really the little white flower you mentioned before?"

Wen Yu read it carefully without saying a word, and was unusually serious.

After a moment, she folded the letter, raised her eyes and said, "It's not a little white flower, it's another flower. Let's go into the palace!"

Liuchun: "What?!"

Did General Lu really have an affair with someone else outside?!

The princess is going to the palace to complain to the emperor?!
