Chapter 206
"My dear, are these Jin people full of food? How can they walk the closest? You ask the horses! Besides, how many generals graze horses in person?"

Wen Renzheng ignored Zhou Fei, the chief executive, and stood beside him with an embarrassed expression on his face. When he saw the emperor's letter, he burst out with foul language.

"Duke Qian, according to His Majesty's order, we ran to death with seven horses and ran to the south of the Yangtze River overnight just to see if you have a solution?"

Wen Renzheng pulled his beard and looked dazed. He is proficient in counting and counting. He is one of the few literati who are proficient in the six arts of gentlemen in the Great Dragon Dynasty. Otherwise, he would not be able to directly shock everyone in Daoyahai Quit the flags and drums.

But the calculations he is proficient in are all topics above "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". This is really the first time he has seen such a weird topic about how to solve the general Yinma.

With a slap, Renzheng slapped the letter paper on the table: "The general asked the horse to drink water, so how come you get closer and ask the general directly? Is it a fucking human thing to embarrass us literati?"

Zhou Fei opened his mouth slightly. He is also one of the few people who are familiar with Wen Renzheng. After all, when Wen Renzheng was the imperial teacher of the dynasty, he had to deal with the chief executive who served the emperor. 30 years of friendship.

Wen Renzheng used to be angry no matter what, at most he could only curse at Bi Qi's mother, which would have stunned the courtiers' attention, but today he directly scolded his mother rudely.

Zhou Fei rubbed his nose and really wanted to ask Mr. Qian, what have you been through these years?
There is a saying that is true, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. After dealing with Young Master Liu for a long time, even a pure-hearted and upright old scholar like Wen Renzheng will inevitably be contaminated with some bad habits.

"What does he mean?"

Zhou Fei was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that he was referring to the emperor. Throughout the entire Dragon Dynasty, there were only two people who dared to use him as the emperor. One was the emperor, Wen Renzheng, and the other was the queen mother.

But Zhou Fei didn't dare to say anything. It should be said that even the emperor would acquiesce in this title. The emperor owed too much to others, whether it was because of the world or selfishness.

"Duke Qian, what your Majesty means is that no matter what, we can't lose the face of the imperial court. After all, we are the kingdom of heaven. If the question of a few scholars from the vassal state mission is difficult, your majesty will definitely be furious."

Wen Renzheng nodded silently, apparently acquiescing to Zhou Fei's words: "That's right, you can't let Jin Kingdom Puxian Academy laugh at me that there is no one in the Dragon Dynasty. Give me two days, and I should be able to figure out how to find the shortest itinerary."

"Mr. Qian, it's not that we don't give Mr. Qian time to think. It's because the mission of the Kingdom of Jin gave us only three days. We only have half a day to stay in Jiangnan, so we must rush back to the capital immediately."

"long time?"

Zhou Fei nodded with a serious face.

"Is this a fucking thing done by a human? I can't figure it out!" The old scholar Wen Renzheng also became a little annoyed.

Zhou Fei looked puzzled: "Mr. Qian, Dangyang Academy claims to produce all the talents in the world. Is it possible that there are no masters in the academy who are proficient in arithmetic?"

Wen Renzheng picked up the letter again and looked at it, then shook his head: "If the old man can't figure it out, then no one in the whole academy can figure it out, but the old man needs time, half a day? Sigh!"

Zhou Fei understood the meaning of Wen Renzheng's sigh, and his face turned miserable: "Could it be that His Majesty really wants to lose face?"

"The only plan for now is to ask him to try it. The old man knows that he is talented in Four Books and Five Classics History Ziji, but he doesn't know how to calculate it. I have no idea, but I can only give it a try!"

"Oh? Does Mr. Qian know someone who is a master?"

"What's the matter? When you visited Erlong Mountain privately with him, you met Liu Mingzhi, the eldest son of the Jiangnan Liu family."

Zhou Fei raised his eyes: "Liu Daudao?"

Wen Renzheng was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help laughing. He also heard about Liu Mingzhi's blatant resistance at the foot of the mountain. Mingzhi blatantly disobeyed the will, but also peeled off his skin if he did not die.

But what is jaw-dropping is that the emperor not only did not give an order to encourage him, but instead gave him a pair of calligraphy to congratulate Liu Mingzhi on his wedding.

Wen Renzheng was also very surprised when he heard about it for the first time, thinking that the emperor's temperament would change as he got older.

In this way, only the emperor really valued Liu Mingzhi, a man with a notorious literary name and a notorious reputation. It should not be the case if it is just a strategy of tweeting grace. things.

Sure enough, the emperor's teacher had a keen sense of smell, and the emperor also valued Liu Dashao's ability to earn money. Dalong's treasury was getting worse and worse, and the emperor needed money, a lot of money.

Even if Liu Mingzhi can't help the national treasury to increase, then the Liu family will help.

It has to be said that the emperor's thoughts are quite deep. He has taken a fancy to Liu Mingzhi's talent and the property of the Liu family, but the four big families are in the same breath, and they can't do anything to the Liu family without a good reason, otherwise they will The fear of the other three major families was aroused. The most important thing was that the Northwest Yun family had a Duke, so they could only win over the nominal heir of the Liu family.

The emperor ordered Liu Mingzhi to be the prince's companion because he hoped to tie him to the prince's chariot. If something happened in the future, the Liu family would definitely do their best to help the prince ascend the throne in order to protect themselves.

The minds of the princes under him, Li Zheng, are clearer than anyone else. The soldiers and horses go first before the food and grass are used. If the prince wants to have a stable foundation, he must have sufficient silver as backup. Who else has more silver than the Jiangnan Liu family? rich.

Without a sword on his neck, how could Liu Mingzhi do his best to help the crown prince ascend the throne? At present, the crown prince is still the emperor's favored and most satisfied son.

"It's this person who is quite bold. His heart has changed. In the past, the Liu family boy would have suffered a lot. For the sake of the mountains and rivers of a hundred thousand miles, he can really bear it!"

Zhou Fei nodded and lowered his eyebrows. He knew what to say and what not to say. Wen Renzheng could say it, but he just pretended he didn't hear it. It's good for everyone.

Wen Renzheng tidied up his clothes: "Let's go down the mountain, today is the Luming Banquet held by the Jinling Tribute Court, and Liu Xiaozi is probably there."

Just arrived at the mountain gate, a pretty figure jumped out and grabbed Wen Renzheng's sleeve: "Grandpa, are you secretly going to buy wine again?"

Wen Renzheng raised his beard: "Girl, let go, Grandpa has business to attend to!"

Wenren Yunshu shook her arms coquettishly: "I don't, I want to go too."

Wen Renzheng glanced at Zhou Fei in embarrassment, a little helpless, he couldn't bear to beat him, and he couldn't bear to scold him, what else could he do!
"Miss Wenren can follow if she wants to. This is Mr. Qian's private matter, we won't ask about it."
