Chapter 234 Ancient World 51: Title
Zuo Zhizhi also nodded continuously. After all, this was a major event that benefited the country and the people. Although it could not be seen now, once it was promoted, it would benefit all the people.
You have to know that in ancient society, people depended entirely on the weather for their livelihood. Once the weather changed, it was normal for people to starve to death.
If farming efficiency can be improved, this situation will be greatly improved!
Although it was the Chinese New Year, the two men came to the farm in the suburbs without hesitation to experiment with this new tool.
Gao Xingyun was even prepared to demonstrate it himself. Although he was not very skilled, he could barely stand up on it.
When it was the turn of the experienced old people, even if they were not used to it at first, they were all amazed after a long time.
"Sir, although this object looks strange, it significantly increases the speed of farming!"
Seeing the success of the experiment, Gao Xingyun was even more satisfied and decided to find a few more carpenters to make a few more copies according to his own drawings, and then distribute them to all the farmers in Zhuangzi and let them experiment accordingly.
The experiment was not completed until the end of spring plowing.
There is no way. Different lands require different methods. Some places cannot be used and must be corrected.
In addition, it had to be made entirely by hand, so although we worked hard to finish it, we still failed to make it in time for spring plowing.
But even so, it is a great achievement!
Gao Xingyun immediately decided to submit the blueprint to the court, but due to his low position, he could only hand it over to his superiors.
Of course, in order to prevent his credit from being taken away by others, he also sent a copy to his father and brother.
The people in the Ministry of Works naturally knew that this was the second master of the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion. Even though they had separated into separate mansions, they were still family after all, and naturally could not be treated as an ordinary newcomer.
Therefore, this drawing was passed up honestly and directly handed to the emperor.
Also attached are the experimental results independently conducted by the Ministry of Industry, as well as Gao Xingyun's experimental process.
Seeing such a magical object, the emperor was immediately delighted and made an exception to allow Gao Xingyun to attend the court to listen to the announcement.
Especially when he learned that Gao Xingyun was the second son of the Marquis of Zhongyi, he could not stop praising him and immediately conferred him the title of Ding'an. Although it was the lowest rank of baron, it was also an achievement of his own.
Amid the exclamations of the crowd, the whole family was very pleased, and the story of the father and son having two titles was also a good story.
Gao Xingyun's official position was also promoted, but he had no interest in government affairs. He just wanted to do some handicrafts and see if there was anything new he could invent.
The emperor naturally wouldn't care. It would be beneficial for him to have more people in the court who could do practical work.
An imperial decree was immediately issued, allowing Gao Xingyun to develop the product on his own without being restricted by court attendance times.
The person who was happiest about this matter was, of course, Zuo Zhizhi.
You know, the biggest difference between her and Gao Xingyun is that although both of them want to be a lazy person and not make any progress, Gao Xingyun still has a sense of concern for the country and the people.
Although I don’t want to change others by myself, I always think about doing something for the country and the people.
Even if it's just to help farmers improve some agricultural production tools.
If they just serve as officials, they will always be involved in the struggle for imperial power, which is something neither of them wants.
And now the situation is just right.
The emperor conferred titles on them, but only the lowest rank of baron. He promoted them to higher positions, but allowed them to manage their time as they pleased.
This way they have plenty of time to travel around and just have to submit one or two design drawings occasionally.
Gao Xingyun is not the type of person who can sit still, so the current situation is good for both of them.
Although the family had many complaints, seeing that they were both very happy, they just let it go.
After all, it is a matter between the two of them, and others should not interfere too much.
Zuo Zhizhi simply took advantage of this time to take Gao Xingyun to a farm in the suburbs for a visit.
Of course, the good name is that only by carefully observing the farming process of the working people can we get better inspiration.
In fact, the two of them often went to various mountains. After all, there were not so many beautiful scenery in ancient times, and only the manors on the mountains had one or two charms.
They had no time to deal with the affairs in the capital, and when they came to their senses, they found that the Sixth Princess had already gotten married.
Originally, this matter had nothing to do with them, but Zuo Zhizhi was very interested in it, so she often went to her sister to ask about the latest situation there.
Zuo Qing'an didn't want to get involved in this matter, but with the Fifth Princess around, they had to make plans early.
After all, if something happened to the Sixth Princess, the unmarried Fifth Princess would definitely be dragged out to take the blame.
Especially since the Sixth Princess has always resented the Fifth Princess for having a brother. If she goes crazy, not everyone will be able to withstand her.
Today's top scholar and second place scholar have served as small editors for a period of time. Although the official position is insignificant, it is the foundation for becoming a famous prime minister.
The two of them are now doing very well in their work. Even with Gao Xingyun, the first person to win the title, it does not overshadow their brilliance at all.
It’s been a while since the marriage, but nothing has happened. Not only Zuo Zhizhi, but even Zuo Qingan felt a little strange.
It’s not that I doubt it, but this matter was not normal in the first place. Now that I think about it carefully, there may really be a problem.
Under normal circumstances, a princess's marriage should take 2 to 3 years.
But now, in just a few months, the princess has successfully married.
Zuo Zhizhi decided to find some time to go and see for herself, to find out what was going on.
Because I am married now, it is more convenient from every angle, and it is very smooth to go out and eat melons.
After all, he also had an imperial decree, although the rank was not high, but with his sister, the Fifth Princess, he could go anywhere without any obstacles.
In addition, there are many relatives in the capital and many banquets, so it is not surprising to see the Sixth Princess and her husband.
When Zuo Zhizhi saw it, she suddenly understood.
Judging from the current situation, the Sixth Princess probably doesn't know the true situation of Wang Panshan yet.
After all, Wang Panshan was wearing insulated shoes and even had something stuck on his throat, which made him look very realistic.
He behaves like a complete man. Although he looks a little thin, his handsome face makes him particularly eye-catching.
The Sixth Princess often took Wang Panshan to various banquets, on the one hand to show off, and on the other hand to let others see how good a husband she had found.
But the more you show off, the weirder it seems!
After all, the Sixth Princess's showing off seemed like showing off a toy, rather than the loving and harmonious relationship with her husband.
By the evening, after Zuo Zhizhi had verified the facts, she became more certain of her thoughts.
Wang Panshan naturally knew that it was impossible to tell the princess now, so she tried to find a way to conceal this matter!
