The beard looked surprised, and he clenched Huo Ran's hands.

Huo Ran's face was full of shock: "You, no, Xiaomin see Your Majesty!" ”

Just as he was about to kneel down and salute, Huo Ran was pulled by the bearded emperor: "Don't blame those who don't know, let alone I deliberately hide it from you." Hanwen, tell me first, did you make these waterwheels and zigzag ploughs yourself? ”

"Nature." Huo Ran was dragged by the emperor to sit at the table and replied respectfully: "Xiaomin has come all the way from Hangzhou, and he has seen the hardships of many people, so he wants to do something for them. ”

"Okay!" The emperor slapped the table and exclaimed, "Now we need a talent like Aiqing!" Hanwen, stay by my side! I have heard that you want to be a good doctor to relieve the suffering of the people, but don't you know that if you are a good person, you can save all the people of the world? ”

"How can this be a good person in Chinese? It's just an unknown scholar. Huo Ran excused himself, "Your Majesty—"

"Hanwen!" The emperor waved back left and right, and took Huo Ran's hands: "Except for you, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, no one has mentioned monks to me-"

Huo Ran got up and pleaded: "Your Majesty, at that time, Hanwen didn't know Your Majesty's identity, and he just talked wildly, and asked Your Majesty not to take it to heart." ”

"Bang!"

"Hanwen!" The Emperor slammed the table, and the teacups on the table were clanging, "Since I heard it, how can I pretend not to know?" You're right, Buddhist, hum! In the long run, the country will not be a country! Hanwen, for the sake of the innocent people, please stay and help me! ”

"Your Majesty!" Huo Ran's eyes were red: "You love the people like a son, you are benevolent, and you are ashamed of Hanwen!" ”

"I am willing to leave a name with the history of the Qing Dynasty!" The emperor and Huo Ran held hands and looked at each other.

"I will live up to the king's grace!" Huo Ran was greatly moved, and his face turned red with excitement.

The emperor and Huo Ran talked freely again, from the members of the court and the central government, to the people in the frontier, and from Confucianism to Buddhism.

"According to Aiqing, how should this Buddhist family deal with it?" The emperor's brow furrowed slightly.

Huo Ran smiled helplessly: "Please forgive Weichen for being stupid." At that time, the minister saw the matter of 'sacrificing his life' among the people, and after thinking about it repeatedly, he just thought that the people were bent on seeking the next life, which was nothing more than the hardships of this life. Therefore, Weichen thought, if the people's lives are better, will there be less 'sacrificing'? ”

The emperor nodded frequently: "Han Wen is reasonable, this matter has been going on for a long time, and it must not be solved in a moment." ”

"Your Majesty, it's not too early, it's time to go back to the palace." The loyal butler reminded in a low voice outside the door.

"Loyalty." The Emperor shouted majestically.

"Your Majesty." Mr. Zhong hurriedly pushed the door in.

The emperor stood up: "Spread my will, Hangzhou Xu Xian will be named the left prime minister, and give the prime minister's mansion!" Hanwen, I will be waiting for you at the court tomorrow. ”

"Let's go, Xiangye." After sending the emperor away, Chief Zhong said with a smile, "Congratulations, you have taken a step to the sky!" ”

Huo Ran also replied with a smile: "Thank you Your Majesty for your appreciation." ”

The Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion has existed for a long time, but no one has lived in it all the time. Under the persuasion of Mr. Zhong, Huo Ran moved in.

"What do you think, Mr. Zhong?" At night, the palace is still brightly lit, and the emperor closes his eyes and recuperates after dealing with the government affairs.

Mr. Zhong replied cautiously: "He is a talented learner." ”

The little palace maid gently massaged the emperor's head, and the emperor chuckled: "It's a pity that it's too cautious." But it's good to be cautious, now Buddhism is like a tree, if you want not to hurt other flowers and plants, you must be cautious. ”

The next day, Huo Ran put on the clothes sent by the maid and started the first day of going to court.

Seeing Huo Ran walk in, the emperor sitting on the throne smiled slightly.

Yesterday, the emperor appointed a cloth cloth as the left minister, which has spread all over the government and the opposition, and today I saw Huo Ran, a new face, and naturally knew his identity.

"Too young!" This was the first impression in the minds of the ministers.

Although he was skeptical, he was not a simple person standing here, and he never appeared to be sarcastic or contemptuous.

What's more, the position of Zuo Xiang has been vacant for more than ten years, and since His Majesty ascended the throne today, Huo Ran is the first Zuo Xiang, and no one knows what this Zuo Xiang does.

"This is the first good thing for the benefit of the people!" After the beginning of the government, the emperor officially read out the will, and at the same time announced all the agricultural equipment of Huo Ran to the public.

The people in the Ministry of Industry were the most aware of the usefulness of these things, and they were the first to accept Huo Ran's existence.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zuo is a great talent!" The waiter of the Ministry of Labor said excitedly: "With these things, the people's grain production will definitely be able to increase by one more point!" ”

Hearing such a high evaluation from the Ministry of Industry, the ministers began to blatantly look Huo Ran up and down.

Huo Ran's feet moved slightly, and his face was still serious and respectful.

The emperor was satisfied that all of his officials were knowledgeable about agricultural affairs.

"Now that the spring ploughing has passed, there will be a left minister, as well as the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Household to make these things as soon as possible, and it will be really useful to get to the hands of the people!" What the emperor said meant a lot.

Huo Ran, who was named, and people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household took over the order one after another.

After confirming Huo Ran's identity and the affairs he was responsible for, the government began to proceed one by one according to the previous rules.

After an hour, except for the beginning related to Huo Ran, the rest are things from all over the world. Huo Ran listened with relish.

The people who were quietly observing Huo Ran on the side couldn't help but nod again and again: It's a good seedling!

"Lord Xu, please wait." After going down to the court, Huo Ran was just about to walk towards a few officials of the Ministry of Industry who were looking forward to it, but he was stopped by the chief manager.

"Mr. Zhong, meet again." Huo Ran said with a smile.

It was ridiculous that the white fat body of the loyal manager trembled, but no one dared to laugh at the emperor's most trusted henchman to his face.

"Lord Xu, we still have to go and worship the gods!" Chief Zhong said softly, seeing Huo Ran's puzzled face, he hurriedly explained, "This is what every second-grade official needs to do." Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven, and now that you have important ministers to assist Your Majesty, it is natural to let the gods know that you can bless your lords. ”

"That's right, Xiangye. What Governor Zhong said is indeed true. We can talk about it another day. Several officials were about to retire.

Huo Ran stopped them: "A few adults, why don't we continue to talk in the afternoon?" ”

The first person smiled heartily: "Xiangye is also anxious, then let's see you in the afternoon." ”

"Okay."

After bidding farewell to several officials of the Ministry of Industry, Huo Ran followed Chief Zhong and asked, "Chief Zhong, why have you never heard of this sacrifice?" ”

Manager Zhong looked proud: "Naturally, it is because our Majesty is particularly favored by God that we have this honor!" ”

"So apart from the first-class and second-grade officials, who else can make sacrifices? How many princes does Your Majesty have?"
