Xiao Fan was very depressed.

Although he did not dare to call himself an absolutely good person, he felt that he was at least a harmless person. Be kind and courteous, and there are still some noble feelings of "reaching and helping the world".

In this world, there are not many people like him, and there are very few of them.

He couldn't figure out why the adult with an unknown surname in front of him was so targeted at him, almost for the sake of opposition, a bit like a shrew who quarreled with her husband, and her unreasonable appearance was extremely hateful, which made people want to slap him down,—— polite and upright gentleman launched a rush and was very perverted.

Well, the above is just a casual thought, after all, he is a court official wearing an official uniform, and he is just a grass man who is down-and-out to live in a mountain temple, and he can't afford to provoke such a big man.

So Xiao Fan stopped talking, and the dry and thin adult foamed at the mouth, gushing about the harm of the prince going to the disaster area to care for the people.

His argument is very simple, the orthodoxy of the throne is the imperial grandson, if the prince to care for the people, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of accepting invitations to buy people's hearts, and I am afraid that it will affect the monarchy of the imperial grandson in the future, in this era, the monarchy is supreme, and no one can be allowed to override the prestige of the people, let alone the prince.

Xiao Fan was very surprised by his argument, what was this person carrying around his neck? Is it the head?

How can such a pedantic person be an official? Lao Zhu's vision is very problematic.

No matter who is sent to the disaster area to care for the people, of course, it cannot be a personal banner, but the banner of the central court, and what the victims miss in their hearts is of course the kindness of the imperial court. Do you think those victims are just out of the shell, and you recognize whoever you see at first sight?

Huang Zicheng was still gushing and retorting, Xiao Fan knelt on the side boredly, and yawned a little while people were not paying attention.

The three ministers didn't notice it, but Zhu Yuanzhang saw Xiao Fan's small movements, and his eyes couldn't help but show a little smile, and then Zhu Yuanzhang knocked on the table lightly, frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Huang Aiqing, listen to Xiao Fan's words, I said, don't interject, when my words are the wind in my ears?" ”

Huang Zicheng was suddenly shocked, and immediately fell to the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The minister is guilty." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored him, turned his head to Xiao Fan and said, "Xiao Fan, you just said that the first is to send the prince or officials to appease the people, well, there must be a second and a third if there is a first, right?" You continue. ”

Xiao Fan looked at Huang Zicheng, a little hesitant, as soon as he said the first, he was refuted by someone who kept talking about half a pillar of incense, if he continued, unless Lao Zhu Jin'er was willing to keep him in the palace for the night......

But since Zhu Yuanzhang ordered him to continue, let's continue to speak, say hurry up, and don't give others a chance to interrupt the conversation.

"Second, all the people in the disaster area must drink boiled water; third, send troops to help the people in disaster relief; fourth, transport a large number of relief materials, especially food and medicine for external injuries, and send more of them; fifth, gather a large number of doctors and doctors to go to the disaster area for treatment; sixth, do a good job in the prevention and control of epidemics; seventh, get a group of girls with red cards in Qinglou who can sing and dance to the disaster area to hold a few singing and dancing parties, so as to improve the morale of the military and the people in fighting the disaster...... Ahem, the grass people are speechless, forget the last one. ”

As soon as Xiao Fan's words fell, Huang Zicheng glared at him fiercely, and wanted to refute with a mouth, but Zhu Yuanzhang smacked him coldly, Huang Zicheng shivered, and hurriedly stopped.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said: "Send the army, send Langzhong, and send medicine, this is understandable, what I don't understand is, why do you want to drink boiled water?" ”

"Your Majesty, after the earthquake, the water source in the earthquake area must have been polluted, and there were a lot of germs in it......"

Zhu Yuanzhang interjected: "What is a germ? ”

“…… It is an evil thing, and people will get sick if they drink it, but they will be fine if they drink boiling water. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while, and then asked, "In addition to the points you said, are there any additions?" ”

Xiao Fan tried to recall the disaster relief methods broadcast on the TV news after the earthquake in his previous life, and thought for a while, so he added: "Your Majesty, there is also the corpse of those people who have been killed, it must be dealt with immediately, buried deep or cremated, otherwise it will cause a large-scale epidemic, if you can, it is recommended that the imperial court mobilize the people of Shu It is best not to live in the house for the time being, because there will be aftershocks after the earthquake, it is best to let the people set up sheds in the open area to live together for a few days, and then move back to the house after the aftershock, In order to avoid greater casualties among the people, the final step is to dispatch officials from the Ministry of Industry to assist the local yamen in rebuilding houses, roads, bridges, etc. in the disaster area. ”

After saying this, Xiao Fan carefully recalled it again, and felt that there was nothing to add, so he said: "The grass people are dull, and all they can think of is this." ”

He didn't feel anything after he finished speaking, in his previous life, these post-disaster measures could be said by any person on the street, but the people present were greatly surprised in their hearts.

Often the first thing that the court thinks of after the catastrophe is to prevent the victims, and they are afraid that the victims will rebel without food and clothing, so after the catastrophe, the conscientious court only allocates some food from the household to the victims, and the unconscionable court gathers the army to surround the victims, and once the victims have signs of rebellion, they will be ruthlessly killed. How could anyone have so systematically and meticulously summarized the measures of post-disaster relief, prevention, and reconstruction?

Zhu Yuanzhang's narrow eyes suddenly lit up, he has been governing the country for nearly 30 years, and he can appreciate the precious surname of these measures as soon as he hears them, and he even extends these measures to other disasters, if there are floods, droughts, locust plagues, etc. in a certain place in the future, many of these measures mentioned by Xiao Fan can also be used, if the imperial court will continue to use these measures in the future, the possibility of the disaster victims rebelling will be greatly reduced, and the rule of his Zhu dynasty will be more and more consolidated.

This can't be said that Zhu Yuanzhang made a fuss, in fact, no one knows the terrible surname of the disaster better than Zhu Yuanzhang.

In April of that year, Zhu Yuanzhang's father starved to death, then his eldest brother starved to death, his eldest brother's eldest son starved to death, and later his mother also starved to death......

In order to live with a full stomach, Zhu Yuanzhang became a monk, also to eat a full stomach, and later Zhu Yuanzhang joined the Red Turban Army and started a rebellion that lost his head, all because of that terrible disaster!

It can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor because of the disaster. Before he became the emperor, he hated disasters, and after becoming the emperor, he was even more afraid of disasters.

The emperor's position is sometimes very fragile, often a small natural disaster can overthrow his throne, the change of dynasties in history, the rebellion of the people, most of them are related to natural disasters, Zhu Yuanzhang himself became the emperor in this way, so he is very afraid of natural disasters, afraid that someone will copy his imperial path.

At this time, Xiao Fan came, and it was a good time.

He said the right thing at the right time, and Zhu Yuanzhang finally understood why Zhu Yunwen valued Xiao Fan so much.

Originally, he just wanted to beat these pedantic ministers through Xiao Fan, but he didn't expect Xiao Fan to speak amazingly and actually say such incisive words, Zhu Yuanzhang had to pay attention to it.

It's a pity...... Xiao Fan is too young, the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and it is not a good thing for young people to be too sharp.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't hold back the words of praise that he was about to blurt out, his expression was very flat, as if what Xiao Fan said just now was completely worthless nonsense.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyes and looked at the three ministers kneeling on the side, Huang Zicheng looked unconvinced, Huang Guan looked cold, and Qi Tai looked thoughtful.

Zhu Yuanzhang lightly knocked on the dragon case, and said in a flat tone: "These suggestions of yours are quite pertinent, but they are a little taken for granted, fortunately, you are still young, and if you hone for a few more years, you may barely be a talent in the future, it's just that, I just said that I want to test you, and your answer is barely passed, so you go down." ”

Xiao Fan paused for a moment, what do you mean? The emperor summoned me into the palace from afar and drove me away after saying a few words, this emperor is really enough to toss people......

Xiao Fan was full of unhappiness in his heart, he felt that he was called by Zhu Yuanzhang to come and go, it was too disrespectful, this feeling was a bit like the second wife who was raised in his previous life, he used it when he wanted to, and when he didn't want to use it, he threw a stack of banknotes to let the second mother roll away, Zhu Yuanzhang was worse than those who made the second wife in his previous life, and he didn't even throw a banknote......

No matter how unhappy you are, you have to be obedient, Xiao Fan has not yet had the courage to argue with Zhu Yuanzhang.

"The grass people obey the order, and the grass people retire ......"

After speaking, Xiao Fan bowed down and slowly withdrew from the warm pavilion.

After Xiao Fan went out, Zhu Yuanzhang's face suddenly showed a faint smile, Huang Zicheng and Huang looked at the look on Zhu Yuanzhang's face, and couldn't help but feel worried in their hearts.

Your Majesty is not really ...... Let this kind of person be an official, right?

"Zitai." Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes again and said slowly.

"The minister is here."

"You remember what Xiao Fan said just now, right?"

"I remember."

"Well, write down what he said word for word, send it to the General Political Envoy Department, and issue it to the local yamen, and if there is a natural disaster in various places in the future, it can be handled in this way as appropriate."

"Obey."

Huang Zicheng endured it for a long time, and finally spoke: "Your Majesty, Xiao Fan is ...... person."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand, interrupted Huang Zicheng's words, and continued: "Xiao Fan, this person, is not a person who has a false appearance, how to use him, I have my plan, Huang Aiqing don't say more." ”

"Minister...... Compliance. ”

**********************************************************

Exiting the palace gate of Wuying Palace, a eunuch had already stepped forward and led Xiao Fan to the outside of the palace.

Along the way, Xiao Fan had a straight face, his mood was very low, as the so-called unpredictable power of heaven, Zhu Yuanzhang summoned him and let him go, neither praising him nor scolding him, which made Xiao Fan very confused, what did Zhu Yuanzhang mean by doing this?

Okay, no matter what he means, anyway, Xiao Fan didn't plan to be an official when Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, after all, the founding emperor was too short-tempered, and it was dangerous to be an official under him.

As for the officials in the court now, huh...... They are all fierce people, willing to cut their bodies, are they afraid that they will not be able to exchange for glory and wealth? Readers also have ruthless characters.

Xiao Fan is not so bold, Zhu Yuanzhang does not give him the official position, it is the best, and Xiao Fan doesn't think that the suggestions he just made are amazing, in fact, he can think of them with a little thought.

To make suggestions to the emperor must conform to the times, Xiao Fan only felt that he happened to be on the point, and did not disgust Zhu Yuanzhang, which is already a great luck, on the other hand, if Xiao Fan sells condoms to Zhu Yuanzhang in this era of population shortage, the end will definitely be different from now, and most of them will be pulled by Lao Zhu to the vegetable market and cut into a thousand pieces.

The eunuch led Xiao Fan all the way to Chengtianmen, then turned around and returned to the palace.

It was already afternoon, the sun was a little dazzling, Xiao Fan stood outside the Chengtian Gate for a while, and suddenly stomped his feet and said, "Didn't you say that there will be a reward for answering?" What about the reward? ”

This is the promise that Lao Zhu Kao made before, but until he left the palace gate, the promise was not fulfilled, Xiao Fan was very disappointed, and said that the king had no jokes, and now even the emperor doesn't even speak, Xiao Fan has lost confidence in this world......

*******************************************************

When he came, the scenery was beautiful, and dozens of brocade-clothed soldiers surrounded him and swaggered into Beijing.

When he left, he was miserable, a lonely person, his figure was depressed and depressed, and the old Zhu was not kind, and he didn't even get rid of it.

Xiao Fan sighed and walked outside Chengtianmen, he planned to find a carriage and horse shop, hire a carriage to go back to Jiangpu, this trip to Beijing was not very pleasant, he felt like a piece of toilet paper, and he was thrown away when he ran out. Next time, Lao Zhu Ruo summoned himself like this, hum...... He still has to come obediently.

"Bang!"

Xiao Fan, who was full of resentment, walked with his head down, and bumped into a person without paying attention.

"Ahh

"Ahh

The person who hit and was hit exhaled in pain at the same time. Xiao Fan kept rubbing his head, and the person who was hit rubbed his chest hard.

"You walk with your head?" The person who was hit asked dissatisfied, but his tone was a little smiling.

Xiao Fan took a look, but saw a young boy standing in front of him, he was wearing a white robe, with a piece of jade pendant hanging obliquely from his waist, and he was smiling at him gently, his smile was very sweet and innocent.

Zhu Yunwen, the grandson of the emperor with a good temper and a good surname, is a treasure held by Zhu Yuanzhang in the palm of his hand.

Not far behind him, there were more than a dozen pro-army guards standing in an irregular manner, looking around vigilantly.

Zhu Yunwen held a folding fan in his hand, knocked twice in the palm of his hand from time to time, and his leisurely attitude added to the grace, there was such a red-lipped and white-toothed young man standing on the street, looking forward to the bright Turbidity of the world's best son, and the big girls and little daughters-in-law who passed by were all staring with stars in their eyes, and they couldn't stop looking at him, and they could guess how their hearts were bumped into each other.

It seems that Zhu Yunwen has been waiting for him outside Chengtian Gate for a long time, and after seeing Xiao Fan, Zhu Yunwen smiled brighter than the sun in the sky.

Xiao Fan snorted angrily, he didn't dare to lose his temper with Zhu Yuanzhang, but he dared to lose his temper at Zhu Yunwen.

When he sees the surname Zhu now, he doesn't want to see it.

Especially the kind of handsome and flirtatious son surnamed Zhu, who is particularly hated! I still play with a fan on a cold day, and I am simply sick.

"Why are you only coming out now? I've been waiting for a while......" The amorous person didn't realize Xiao Fan's contempt for him, and complained to him.

Xiao Fan snorted, and just as he opened his mouth to speak, Zhu Yunwen tugged on his sleeve excitedly, and said: "You are the landlord in Jiangpu, and today you are the master of Beijing, so I will be the east, go, I will invite you to drink two cups." ”

…………

…………

Well, people invited him so sincerely, forgave him, and by the way, forgave his grandfather.

A righteous gentleman will have a soft mouth if he eats someone else's.

Out of the Chengtian Gate to the west, there is a street called Fudong Street, Yingtianfu Yamen is on this street, from ancient times to the present, the geographical location where the political axe office is always very prosperous, Fudong Street is no exception. People come and go on the streets, hawkers shout with their voices, jugglers beat gongs vigorously in the crowd, and catch fast and leisurely patrol the streets with iron rulers, and life is full of variety.

Xiao Fan and Zhu Yunwen walked side by side, the pro-army guards surrounded them unhurriedly, and the guards who walked in front squeezed through the crowd blocking the road without a trace, opening the way for the two.

The two finally stopped at the south end of Fudong Road, and when they looked up, a restaurant called "Huibin Building" stood impressively.

Zhu Yunwen patted the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile: "This is it, this is a newly opened restaurant, I have been here twice, and it feels very good, it seems that it is not opened by a local in Beijing......"

Zhu Yunwen leaned into Xiao Fan's ear and said mysteriously: "...... I heard that the proprietor is still a stunning girl, but I only heard that no one has ever seen the proprietor, and the shopkeeper here is a little old man. ”

Xiao Fan sighed and said, "His Royal Highness...... You're a grandson! You should always think about national affairs in your heart, how can you gossip more than a middle-aged woman? ”

Zhu Yunwen laughed, and pulled Xiao Fan into the door of the guest building.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Fan noticed that something was wrong, and looked around, the layout in the lobby was very familiar, the tables and chairs were placed irregularly, and there was a two-zhang square platform on the east side against the wall, and there were also several women who were dressed plainly but with good faces and a little bit of dust, shuttling back and forth, selling drinks to guests......

Zhu Yunwen squeezed his eyes at Xiao Fan and said with a smile: "How is it?" Doesn't that sound familiar? To be honest, when I first came, I thought you had gone to Beijing to be the shopkeeper......"

Xiao Fan smiled indifferently, a good method can always be used by other merchants in the shortest possible time, imitation, there is nothing strange, his words in the Drunken Immortal Building have disappeared like yesterday.

After Zhu Yunwen got to know Xiao Fan, he developed a good habit, he didn't sit in the Accord when he went to the restaurant, he chose to sit in the lobby with a lot of people, and after sitting down, he looked around curiously, and from time to time he also pricked up his ears to listen to what gossip the diners at other tables were talking about, and after hearing any interesting topics, he would always show a happy look on his face, silly, pure, but very clean.

The two sat for a while, and Zhu Yunwen twisted his head back unsatisfied, looked at Xiao Fan and said with a smile: "I heard that you have left that merchant's house?" ”

Xiao Fan's face suddenly became a little gloomy, leaving the Chen family was not very pleasant for both parties, and he didn't want to mention this topic.

Fortunately, Zhu Yunwen is a discerning guy, and when he saw Xiao Fan pursing his mouth and not speaking, he immediately changed the topic.

"When you entered the palace just now, did your grandfather praise you?" Zhu Yunwen's eyes lit up a little.

Xiao Fan was so angry that he gritted his teeth, did this guy deliberately disgust people? picked out the topic that made people angry and said, if it weren't for the fact that there were many guards standing around him, Xiao Fan really wanted to give him a blow to the top of his head to split Huashan.

Xiao Fan said with a straight face: "Don't you understand when you saw me walking out of the palace alone and dejected?" ”

"Didn't praise you?" Zhu Yunwen seemed to be holding back a smile.

Xiao Fan sighed and said: "I guess the emperor originally planned to praise me, but unfortunately there were two middle-aged uncles next to me to tear down the table, those two uncles hated it, they objected to whatever I said, and then I recalled it for a long time, and I always felt strange, I don't know those two uncles, why did they treat me with an expression that I threw their children into the well?" ”

"Who are those two uncles?"

Xiao Fan shook his head, until he left the palace, he didn't figure out the identities of the two uncles. However, it can be deduced that he is a righteous gentleman, so those who are hostile to a righteous gentleman are naturally evil and bad people, and good and evil are not mutually exclusive.

Xiao Fan nodded very seriously, and said to Zhu Yunwen with a straight face: "Although I don't know what the names of those two uncles are, I can be sure that they are bad people, if I meet them again in the future, you can help me beat them!" ”

Zhu Yunwen's face turned red with excitement, seeing that the children from Xiaochang in the deep palace had a natural yearning for violent incidents.

Zhu Yunwen nodded fiercely, blushed and said loudly: "Okay!" Beat them up! ”

Xiao Fan was very pleased, and he felt a sense of accomplishment in teaching a gentle and benevolent His Royal Highness the Taisun into an ancient boy full of violent factors.

The guy brought the food and drinks, and the two of them clinked glasses, and then took a sip.

Neither of them is a person who drinks a lot, compared to Cao Xiancheng, who is as big as a cow, Xiao Fan is more willing to drink with Zhu Yunwen.

"What does your imperial grandfather mean? They summoned me from afar, said a few words and sent me away, I am still confused, saying that the will of heaven is unpredictable, this is too unpredictable, right? After three glasses of wine, Xiao Fan began to scratch.

Zhu Yunwen smiled evilly and said, "Actually, before you entered the palace, I knew the intentions of the imperial grandfather." ”

"What's the point?"

Zhu Yunwen straightened his waist, put his right hand under his chin, pretended to be an old voice, and imitated Zhu Yuanzhang to speak: "Young people always have to be tempered a little more, so that they can be of great use, if jade is not carved, how can it become a great tool?" ”

Xiao Fan pouted and said, "Come on, haven't I been trained enough?" I've honed my skills to the point that I almost went to the street to ask for food, and if my piece of jade is carved again, it will definitely become jade slag......"

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said: "The meaning of the emperor's grandfather is to ask you to take the test for fame, and he will give you a ...... of origin."

Xiao Fan's eyes straightened: "Test fame?" What fame? ”

"Don't say you have to take a show to be born, since the founding of my dynasty, in addition to a few Hongxue Confucianism in the world, there is no precedent for being a direct official in vain, the Ming Dynasty stipulates that only a meritorious scholar or a son can be an official, this law is made by the emperor's grandfather himself, and you can't break the decree for you, right? If you are admitted to a showman, you will be considered to have a meritorious reputation, and at that time, my imperial grandfather will give you a Tongjinshi background, and it will be logical for you to be an official, and no one in the court can find fault with any of the ministers. ”

Xiao Fan pointed to his nose in surprise and said, "Me? Exam Xiucai? Are you kidding! If you don't take the test, you can't pass the test, I don't have that ability! ”

This is really a ridiculous joke, after so long, he hasn't even recognized all the traditional characters, not to mention those subsets of scriptures and histories, the current Xiao Fan is almost semi-literate, illiterate to test Xiucai? Zhu Yuanzhang really has a sense of humor......

Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but laugh, and said with a straight face: "If you don't take the test, you can't do it, this is not to discuss with you, but the imperial grandfather's holy decree to you, you must take the test, the imperial grandfather said, if you can't pass the exam, I will ask you for the crime." ”

Xiao Fan: "............"

Zhu Yuanzhang is trying to play me!

Seeing Xiao Fan's sad face, Zhu Yunwen couldn't hold back anymore and laughed.

"Laugh, laugh quickly, after laughing, you will never see me again, I will become the first unlucky guy in history to die for evading the scientific examination......" Xiao Fan poured a sip of wine.

Zhu Yunwen stopped laughing, glanced at Xiao Fan and said, "You are stupid!" With me to help you, are you still afraid that you won't be able to pass the exam? Not to mention showing talent, it's not difficult for you to be the champion. ”

Xiao Fan looked at him with wide eyes: "What do you mean?" How are you going to help me? ”

Zhu Yunwen showed a slight look of pride: "It's not easy to be a showman when the emperor's grandson wants to be a showman, this matter is left to me, you can rest assured, I have already instructed others to get you a child qualification, and you will participate in the college examination after the spring of next year, but now the imperial grandfather already knows you, after you have passed the hospital examination, the imperial grandfather will most likely transfer your paper to see, then it doesn't matter, I will help you invite a great talent to come back and help you do a good job, you don't have to care about anything, just wait in the number room, I will say hello to the school administration of Ying Tianfu." ”

Xiao Fan was taken aback: "Your grandiose grandson actually helped others cheat?" ”

Zhu Yun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly showed a look of shame: "Zi said: The gentleman is not comparable, I seem to have become bad recently, and I am worthy of the sage's training......"

Who knew that Xiao Fan didn't give him time to repent at all, but said with excitement on his face: "It's so simple to take a fame, you just help me get a champion, I like to hang a big red flower and ride a big red horse on the street......"

Zhu Yunwen stood up ashamed, looked at him with wide eyes, and then straightened his face and said, "You said a sentence before, and that sentence is very suitable to describe you." ”

"What?"

"Give you a little sunshine and you'll be shining."

“…………”

The matter of taking the merit test was solved, and Xiao Fan breathed a sigh of relief, but the old sorrows had just gone, and new worries had been added.

He found that Zhu Yuanzhang was ruthless enough to himself.

If you can't answer the question, you will be beheaded, you will not be able to show your talents, and you will be asked for the crime.

Being an official under such an emperor has a great chance of losing his head, and his Xiao Fan's luck can't always be so good.

Counting with his fingers, Zhu Yuanzhang probably only has less than two years of life, and now he can only pray that he will try to avoid Zhu Yuanzhang in the past two years, and see him less.

The two drank a few more glasses of wine, Zhu Yunwen suddenly pointed to the wooden platform in the lobby excitedly, and said with a smile: "Look at it, there are interesting things, this thing can be regarded as a scenery in Jingshi, I really don't know which madman came up with it, haha......"

Xiao Fan turned his head to look at the stage, but saw five pretty girls lined up on the stage, smiling and looking around at the diners in the lobby, and then a gong sounded, and the five girls who were looking forward to love suddenly twisted their bodies like crazy, danced vigorously, danced a few steps, and the girls sang in unison.

"If you're hungry, you're not afraid, Huibin Building is here, you're not afraid, you're not afraid......

"Welcome to the Huibin Building, the Huibin Building, the Youth Building, the Friendship Building......"

"Poof-" Xiao Fan squirted Zhu Yunwen all over his face with a sip of wine.

Depend on! Who? Who's pirating? It's so hateful!

Zhu Yunwen wiped his face very calmly, then stretched out two fingers tremblingly, and looked at Xiao Fan with infinite resentment and sadness.

"Twice, you've squirted me twice......"
