Ming Dynasty: Teaching The Prince Dragon-Slaying Skills At The Beginning

Chapter 743: Indescribable Gratitude, \\"Playing Rogue\\" Between The Government And The P

If they had previously used crazy learning methods to respond to the imperial court's expectations of them and achieve the reading and literacy that the imperial court expected them to be able to achieve.

So now that the imperial court had given them free potato seeds with a yield of thirty kilograms per mu, as well as books explaining how to grow potatoes, the old man was really stunned.

Because in the past thousands of years, has any emperor or any court ever given their people free potatoes, a high-yielding grain that can keep them hungry, as well as free books explaining how to grow potatoes?!!

No!!!

not a single one!!!

In the past, the emperor and the imperial court could relax a little or two from the oppression of their people, allowing them to take a breath and continue to live a difficult life [then they would all thank God for his great grace.

However, now the emperor and the court not only gave them free potatoes, but also gave them free precious books such as "Potato Planting Manual".

Yes, books!

Don't think of "Potato Planting Manual" as a book. In this era, for ordinary people, even if it is just a book explaining how to plant potatoes, it is a family heirloom that even the rich can't buy!

However, the emperor and the imperial court gave such a family heirloom to them for free.

Faced with such a huge favor, the old man really didn't know what he should do to repay the court and the emperor.

But if he doesn't do anything, he won't be able to pass the test in his heart.

So after the old man was silent for a while, he suddenly knelt down on the ground in a prostrate manner, with the potatoes and "Potato Planting Manual" in his left and right hands facing up, and banged his forehead against the hard ground with great force.

At the same time, the old man kept repeating Earthly Dao:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Thank you, my lords!"

After just a few breaths, the old man's forehead was already stained with blood.

This sudden scene made Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi, General Li Qi, and Fang Zhixian all stunned.

Then, Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi and Fang Zhixian saw the faint blood stain on the old man's forehead and quickly came to their senses. They all reached out to help him and said:

"Old man, get up quickly!"

"You don't have to be like this, old man!"

"Doctor, doctor, get the doctor quickly!"

After knocking for more than ten times in a row, my forehead was covered with blood and my head became dizzy.

The old man just stood up with the help of Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi and Fang Zhixian, and at the same time smiled at the three of them with few teeth showing:

"I'm okay, I'm okay, it's okay!"

"I'm just so happy, I'm just so happy!"

"It's great to be able to live until His Majesty established the Ming Dynasty, and to live to this day!"

"In such a wonderful day, why haven't my wife, my eldest son, my eldest daughter-in-law, and my darling grandson survived until now?"

At the end of the story, the old man couldn't help but turn from laughing to crying, and burst into tears.

When the surrounding villagers of Xiahe Village heard the old man crying, they couldn't help but turn their heads away, their eyes were red, and they stretched out their hands to wipe the corners of their eyes.

Among the Ming Dynasty people over twenty years old who have lived to this day, who has not had a relative or friend die?!

You must know that this year is only the seventeenth year of Hongwu. Twenty years ago, it was still the chaotic years of the late Yuan Dynasty!!!

From the chaotic years of the late Yuan Dynasty to the present, the luckier people may have only lost three or two relatives and friends per family, while the unlucky people may have lost their only child.

Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and General Li Qi couldn't help but fell silent when they heard the old man's cries.

Although Yan Longan is less than twenty years old this year and was born just after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it does not mean that he does not know what happened during the chaotic times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

Every time when he talks to his father and mother about life and study in the Agricultural College, his father and mother can't help but talk about the various tragic past events they had to survive in the chaotic times of the late Yuan Dynasty.

Then he told him to cherish this good life now, study hard, and strive to make more people eat well in the future.

Don't let the various human tragedies they experienced during the chaotic times of the late Yuan Dynasty reappear.

As for Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and General Li Qi, they are all in their twenties and thirty years old this year, and they are all people who have experienced the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

At most, it may be due to one's own background, or one's own courage to fight and fight, so he can't get through as well as ordinary people.

But that doesn't mean they don't know the cruelty of the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. During the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, no matter whose life it was, it was actually the same precarious situation.

Even Chen Youliang, a prince in the late Yuan Dynasty who divided the world with Zhu Yuanzhang, was shot to death by a stray arrow in the battle of Poyang Lake in the end?!

It is also not easy for them to live to this day and become central censors, imperial guards, and local magistrates.

After a while, Yan Longan gently patted the old man's shoulder and back, and comforted the old man with a warm voice:

"Everything has passed." I think your wife, your eldest son, your eldest daughter-in-law, and your sweet grandson don't want to see you continue to be so sad.

"Since I have survived until now, I will continue to live until I live a long life and try to live a good life for a few more days."

"For your wife, for your eldest son, for your eldest daughter-in-law, for your good grandson, make up for their failure to live a good life, so that even if they are in trouble, I think they will be happy. "

The old man wiped away his tears, looked up at Yan Longan with red eyes, tried his best to show a smile and said:

"My lord is right!"

"Perhaps my wife, eldest son, eldest daughter-in-law, and darling grandson are too lucky to have such a good reason today."

"I am rarely blessed to be able to live a good life like today, so I will try to live a few more days like this for them, so that they will not suffer a disadvantage!"

Yan Longan also smiled and said:

"That's right, that's how it is!"

After comforting the first old man, Yan Longan continued to greet the second villager from Xiahe Village who was over fifty years old to come forward to receive potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual"

After the second old man received the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual", he knelt down and bought them without saying a word to Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi, the magistrate, and General Li Qi.

He also knocked out a little blood on his forehead, and he stopped only after he felt dizzy.

During this period, Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and Li Zongqi were all unable to pull. Of course, there were reasons why they did not dare to pull hard.

After all, the old man is already over fifty years old. If he pulls hard and something goes wrong, it will be a headache and troublesome.

The same was true for the third and fourth old men over fifty years old after that.

Seeing this scene, Yan Longan had to suspend the distribution of potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" [Ten faces looked seriously at the people behind who were preparing the territory and the "Ten Planting Manual" and said:

"Stop knocking. If you keep knocking, I won't send you potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual"!!!"

The old man in line behind grinned and nodded in agreement, and when he received the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual", he indeed did not kneel down and kowtow again.

Just as Yan Longan, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and General Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief, the fifth old man who received potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" walked more than ten steps away.

Suddenly, he was caught off guard and moved in their direction, kneeling down and kowtowing again and again.

He also knocked out a little blood on his forehead, and only stopped after he was flat.

Yan Long'an, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and Li Zongqi were all too late to help him, let alone stop him.

But what can Yan Longan, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian and Li Zongqi do to the old man?!!

After all, the potatoes and "Potato Planting Manual" sent out could not be taken back, and the old man's move was just to express his gratitude to the emperor and the court.

So not only could they not do anything to the old man, they even had to continue to persuade other old men not to continue to fight like this.

Otherwise, every one of them would hit their foreheads until their foreheads bleed, and then when they go back, they, who are over fifty years old, will suffer from this, and then the happy event will turn into a funeral. "Then it will be their turn to be in big trouble.

Looking at the sixth old man in front of him, Yan Longan was holding the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" that he was going to send to him, and said in a panic:

"Master, don't knock me anymore later, okay?!!"

However, the old man just grinned at him and said nothing. At the same time, he stretched out his hands to take the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" from his hand.

Seeing this scene, Yan Longan could only turn his head to look at the Yamen servant on the side and ordered:

"Send me off to my husband!!!"

When the Yamen servant on the side saw Yan Longan's wink, he immediately understood that he was asking him to look at the father-in-law later and not to let the father-in-law continue to kowtow, and immediately nodded to express his understanding.

After seeing the yamen officer nodded and walked to the old man's side, Yan Longan handed the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" to the old man.

After the old man took the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual", he didn't care about the government servants following him and walked aside.

Then, just as Yan Longan was about to distribute potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" to the next old man, and the government servant beside him turned around, the sixth old man immediately knelt down in the direction of Yan Longan and others.

He also knocked out a little blood on his forehead, and he only stopped after he was flat.

Yan Longan, who was originally going to hand the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" to the seventh old man, froze in mid-air when he saw this scene.

It doesn't matter if you hand over the potatoes or the "Potato Planting Manual" in your hand, it doesn't matter if you don't hand them over.

"Can I stop kowtowing later?"

Facing Yan Longan's inquiry, the seventh old man also just grinned and did not reply.

Seeing this scene, Yan Longan thought for a while, then immediately shook off his robe and knelt down towards the old man.

This time it was the old man's turn to panic. He quickly dodged to avoid the kneeling. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to help Yan Longan up, and said in panic:

"Sir, you are trying to hurt this little old man!!!"

"."Get up quickly, get up quickly!!!"

Even Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and General Li Qi who were on the side couldn't help being surprised when they saw this scene.

You must know Yan Longan's status. In a sense, he is even higher than them!

However, now Yan Longan is kneeling down towards the most ordinary, and in some sense, the lowest status common people.

The impact this brought to them was no less than the impact just now caused by one after another common people expressing their gratitude to the imperial court by knocking themselves on the forehead until bleeding.

However, Yan Longan didn't feel anything about this. The old man was the eldest and he was the youngest. In addition, Yan Longan himself was from a peasant family, so he didn't feel any discomfort with this kneeling.

Then Yan Longan looked at the government servant aside and asked him to stop the old man from helping him up. At the same time, he looked at the old man and the other people around him and said sincerely:

I know that everyone is grateful to His Majesty and the court, but there is really no need to express their gratitude in this way.

"Just in case you get knocked out of here, aren't you going to put His Majesty and the imperial court in an unkind situation?!!"

"Maybe I can't dissuade you, but as we go back and forth, how many times you kowtow to His Majesty and the court, then I will kowtow to you a few!!!"

"With my small body, I estimate that after three to fifty knocks, I would faint even if I didn't die."

"Even if you are a dozen or so rich, you may still have problems with your brain."

"Then I probably won't be able to give you any more instructions on how to grow potatoes.'

"It's up to you how to choose.

After saying that, Yan Longan handed the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" to the seventh old man.

The old man who took the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" looked at Yan Long'an with a dumbfounded expression and said:

"Sir, you are acting like a rogue!!!"

Yan Longan nodded and said calmly:

"I can't dissuade you, so I can only make this decision."

"Now it depends on whether my father-in-law and other villagers will take pity on me."

The old man held the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual" and looked at Yan Long'an for a long time. Then he held the potatoes in one hand and the "Potato Planting Manual" in the other hand.

He raised three fingers and said:

Three "!!!"

"I'll kowtow to His Majesty, I'll kowtow to the court, I'll kowtow to your lords, and then I won't kowtow anymore. At the same time, the lords can't kowtow back, how about that?!"

"If the adults don't agree, then I will have no choice but to bump my head into this old man and die!!!"

Now it was Yan Longan's turn to laugh and cry, and said helplessly:

"Dad, aren't you just being a rogue?"

The old man grinned and said:

“I learned it from you, sir!!!!

Yan Longan sighed helplessly, then looked up at the old man and said:

"keep your word!!!"

At the same time, he looked at the other people and said:

"And so do the rest of you!!!"

The people around him all nodded, and only then did Yan Long Anyou stand up again.

Then the old man kept his word, bang bang bang, kowtowed to the emperor, the court, Yan Longan, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and General Li Qi, and then stopped kowtowing again.

Get up happily.

At the same time, other common people did the same thing. After receiving the potatoes and the "Potato Planting Manual", they kowtowed three times to express their respect for the emperor and the court.

, I would like to express my gratitude to Yan Longan, Zhou Yushi, Fang Zhixian, and General Li Banner.

'

Zhou Yushi, who saw this scene from the side, immediately took out a pen and paper to write down the scene that happened in front of him, preparing to return to Beijing and submit it to the emperor.

He had a hunch that his letter would definitely leave a deep impression on the emperor, and he might even be rewarded by the emperor for it!
