Although the emperor intended to let Dong Zhongshu serve as the wheat field envoy and be responsible for promoting the cropping of wheat, Dong Zhongshu has been away from the court for a long time and has basically no ally in the court. There are still many political enemies. For example, Prime Minister Gongsun Hong has always disliked Dong Zhongshu.

Therefore, as soon as the emperor finished speaking, Prime Minister Gongsun Hong made a list and said: "Dong Gong is well-read in poetry and books, has a rigorous academic discipline, and is well-known in the world. I am also very respectful to me. However, Mr. Dong was born in a wealthy family and has a million family. He has not been able to farm for a long time. I am afraid that he will not understand the principles and will delay the major affairs of the country!"

"I'm going to discuss it!" After Gongsun Hong finished speaking, the court guard Zhang Tang immediately stood up and bowed to the emperor: "I heard that what Zhongshu is good at is the study of classics and writing articles. Besides, he has lived in a quiet room for a long time, how can he know how high the temple is? Moreover, Zhongshu's family has millions of people and does not do farming, so how can he know farming? If he can speak but cannot do it, wouldn't it be a mistake for the country?"

Compared with Gongsun Hong, Zhang Tang's words were very rude. He said bluntly, your Dong Zhongshu is good at reading and writing articles. He has been away from the court for so long. Do you still know about the court? Moreover, you are wealthy and have never done farm work. Can you farm? If you, Dong Zhongshu, only know how to talk and do practical things, wouldn't it be a waste of state affairs if you, Dong Zhongshu, only know how to be a wheat field envoy?

Following closely behind, Sang Hongyang also said: "Su Mai Rotary Seed is a farming business. The farmer's command is to take charge of the agricultural officials of the county and state in the world. If the method of Su Mai Rotary Seed is to implement the method of Su Mai Rotary Seed, the result will be twice as much as possible. I believe that all these things should be good for the farmer's command and should not be handed over to others!"

...

After Sang Hongyang, other court officials also stood up to oppose it. Their reasons were basically based on the points raised by Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang. In short, everyone did not agree with Dong Zhongshu's responsibility for the rotation of Sumai.

Seeing the ministers reacting so violently, the emperor Liu Che, who was the emperor after the imperial case, couldn't help but frown and thought in his heart that Dong Zhongshu was a good teacher in teaching and educating people, but perhaps Dong Zhongshu might really not be suitable for promoting farming such as Sumai Round. It is not unreasonable for the ministers to oppose him to be responsible for this matter!

At the same time, Dong Zhongshu also saw the scene in the hall. Seeing that among the ministers, none of them were willing to stand up and speak for him, but they all opposed him as the wheat field envoy. He felt sad and for a moment he had no intention of refuting everyone.

Seeing that Dong Zhongshu was silent and allowed the ministers to attack him in every way, this made someone in the hall a frustrated. Seeing that the situation turned sharply, Dong Zhongshu seemed to be about to miss the important task of the wheat field envoy, and someone felt that he could no longer bear it!

So he gritted his teeth and came out to report to the emperor: "My minister, Lu Bushu, is ignorant of his death, and he is willing to report to Your Majesty. I think that wealth does not harm wisdom, and noble does not harm virtue. Zi Gong is good at breeding goods and has millions of families. How can he be a virtuous?

In ancient times, gentlemen adhered to the way to establish their reputation and cultivated themselves to wait for the times. They did not seek to be weak and change their integrity, and did not seek to be rich and change their ambitions. Only benevolence can lead to their own affairs, and only righteousness can lead to their conduct. Therefore, living in seclusion and practicing integrity can lead to their actions. When they are born rich and noble, they can lead to their virtues.

Gong Dong was strict with himself and was lenient to others. He always thought about the words of the sages. The sage values ​​wheat and grain, so Gong Dong also valued it!

Now Gong Dong recommends Zhang Lang to offer the method of staying in wheat cyclone seeds together, which shows that Mr. Dong is the same as his words and deeds! Moreover, today, only Mr. Dong and Zhang Lang are the only ones who know the method of staying in wheat cyclone seeds!

Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to appoint those who do things well and use them to measure their talents!"

When he heard these words, Dong Zhongshu suddenly raised his head and looked at the back in the hall, his eyes were a little wet...

"Oh!" Seeing this scene, Zhang Ran couldn't help but grow up and bow to the emperor: "The technique of planting wheat tides that I offer is based on several new agricultural tools made by me. If there is no assistance to all the agricultural tools, the planting wheat tides will also be a rootless tree! However, these agricultural tools are newly made by me, and few people know about it. Only me, Gong Dong, and King Qiu Shou and others are proficient in their methods!

Dozens of days ago, Gong Dong recommended to Your Majesty to me, and I was lucky to be honored!

Now, I also recommend Mr. Dong to Your Majesty... and King Qiu Shou! These two people are good at planting wheat with wheat. I beg your Majesty to use it!"

“…”

Hearing Zhang Ran's words, the ministers looked at each other silently. No one expected that Zhang Ran would jump out at this time and recommend Dong Zhongshu to the emperor!

In fact, just speaking of Zhang Ran’s official position, his recommendations are not worth much, and basically no one cares. However, if Zhang Ran’s identity as “inventor” is added, the situation will be slightly different.

What's more, who would have thought that Zhang Ran and Dong Zhongshu were so thief, and they were still trying to keep a move in the memorial?

After Zhang Ran's reminder, the ministers suddenly realized that the memorial they saw seemed to mention only "several new agricultural tools" and did not specify the specific manufacturing and usage methods of the new agricultural tools.

This means that there is no way to master the Sumai Root Method by relying solely on this comment. If you want to master the method thoroughly, you have to obtain the so-called "new agricultural tools" from Zhang Ran, otherwise everything will be just empty talk...

However, in this current situation, will Zhang Ran teach them the method? Obviously, he will not! Because Zhang Ran has recommended Dong Zhongshu to the world!

Of course, in addition to Zhang Ran and Dong Zhongshu, there is another person in the hall who must have mastered the so-called new agricultural tools production method... and as long as he ordered, even Zhang Ran and others could only cooperate and hand over all the techniques of Sumai rotation!

So, the ministers couldn't help but look at the emperor behind the imperial case, waiting for the emperor's final verdict!

In the eyes of the crowd, Emperor Liu Che glanced at the ministers with majestic eyes and slowly spoke: "I have decided to appoint Dong Zhongshu as the wheat field envoy, and the agricultural minister Sang Hongyang also serves as the deputy envoy, in charge of all matters of staying in wheat rotation! The emperor ordered the county and state to send their agricultural officials to the fields to go to Chang'an within three months to learn how to stay in wheat rotation!"

Dong Zhongshu and Sang Hongyang went out at the same time and said, "Abide by Your Majesty's order!"

The emperor's decision and appointment put a halt on the dispute. All the noises in the hall came to an abrupt end.

Although the ministers were not all satisfied with this result, they were not completely unacceptable.

At least the Dameng Ling Zheng and his affiliated officials were more satisfied with this result, and Zhao Yu, Ji An and others were generally acceptable here.

As for Zhu Maichen, Yan Zhu and others, most of them were close ministers of the emperor. Of course, whatever the emperor said was what he said, and everything was followed by the emperor.

Only Prime Minister Gongsun Hong, Tingwei Zhang Tang and others had poor expressions.

However, both of them have been promoted to important positions by the emperor in recent months, so they dare not disobey the emperor's orders.

Even if I feel dissatisfied, I can only swallow this breath.
