Done! Your Majesty is going to prostitute me for free!

Chapter 27 Bathing

Yes, why not support the Yangtze River?

Emperor Jingjiang was shaken. He stared at the ministers, his thoughts confused. Some people say that the young man from Yangqu County has been defeated.

After all, up to now, I have tried my best.

There was silence in the hall, only the sound of breathing and heartbeat could be heard.

In full view of everyone, Emperor Jingjiang sighed in his heart: That's it, that's all. After all, he mistrusted Lin Xiaofeng. He sighed, at a loss.

When Emperor Jingjiang was about to make an announcement, he suddenly heard rapid footsteps outside. A young eunuch stumbled in and shouted: "Urgent report! Urgent report from the Yangtze River!"

"Send it up quickly!" Bai Yongyuan also felt that the situation was urgent. Seeing the nervous expression on the little eunuch's face, he guessed that something big must have happened on the other side of the Yangtze River. Wang Jingwen quickly walked down the steps, received the urgent report, and presented it to Emperor Jingjiang.

Emperor Jingjiang hurriedly opened the emergency report, his pupils suddenly dilated. He stayed close to the emergency report and read every word carefully. The ministers at the foot of the steps held their breath to observe the emperor's reaction.

·······························

After a long time, Emperor Jingjiang raised his head and laughed loudly. He held the memorial high and said with great pride: "Everyone! Look! The reason why I am standing still is for today! There is no need to worry about the disaster in the Yangtze River!"

After speaking, he threw the memorial in front of Shen Zhenyu.

Shen Zhenyu hurriedly picked up the memorial and read softly: "... The north and south peaks of Tudor Mountain collapsed, and the Yangtze River water in the upper reaches was diverted directly to the lower reaches. The floods in the middle reaches and the drought in the lower reaches have been alleviated, but there are still refugees... ···”

After reading this, Shen Zhenyu's face changed drastically and he broke into a cold sweat. Just now he was contradicting the emperor, but now the flood has receded on its own... How can such a thing happen in the world...

The ministers were very surprised when they heard this and looked at Emperor Jingjiang with strange eyes. How did Your Majesty know that the mountain would collapse? Is there really a divine connection?

In the surprised eyes of the ministers, Emperor Jingjiang looked even more mysterious.

"Shen Zhenyu, do you have anything else to say?" Emperor Jingjiang asked.

Shen Zhenyu kowtowed heavily and said angrily: "Your Majesty is wise! Please forgive me for being stupid and contradicting Your Majesty. I deserve death!"

These elites are usually very arrogant, and will quarrel with other scholars whenever they disagree. This situation is very rare today.

Emperor Jingjiang felt relaxed physically and mentally, as happy as drinking ice water. But heavy fines are not the answer. Heavy fines for trivial matters will block the flow of speech.

So Emperor Jingjiang waved his hand coolly: "Forget it, for your hard work on state affairs, I will fine you half a year's salary!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shen Zhenyu secretly rejoiced and stood up slowly. At this moment, his face was pale, his expression was in a daze, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.

Seeing that the crisis had been resolved, Bai Yongyuan was in a good mood, so he asked Emperor Jingjiang: "Your Majesty, I have something unclear..."

"Report~~"

Before he finished speaking, another young eunuch hurried in, holding a memorial in his hand.

"Your Majesty, urgent report from Yangtze River Mansion!"

"Read!"

"Thanks to God's blessing, the north and south peaks of Tudor Mountain collapsed, and the disaster has been alleviated... Relying on His Majesty's majesty, the army entered the Yangtze River to suppress the bandits. The Disaster God Sect fled upon hearing the news and won without a fight. It is said that the saint of the God of Disaster Sect is Jin Jiaying, the third princess of Haiyun Kingdom, and her current whereabouts are unknown..."

Emperor Jingjiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and the officials also breathed a long sigh of relief.

What a double happiness!

However, some ministers felt that this was inappropriate. The two urgent reports... actually had similar auras.

Hiss... This is a sign that His Majesty sent two groups of people to secretly explore the Yangtze River!

The pride in Emperor Jingjiang's chest suddenly disappeared, but his expression became even more exhilarating. He continued: "Okay! Prime Minister Bai, what did you want to ask me just now?"

"Uh... I would like to ask how your majesty knows that the disaster will be resolved?"

The ministers looked at Emperor Jingjiang again, their eyes full of curiosity and doubt. They all seemed to be asking: "Can your Majesty send people to the Yangtze River to cause the mountains to collapse?"

Emperor Jingjiang smiled to himself when he saw the confused looks on everyone's faces. At this time, it was time to reveal Lin Xiaofeng's existence. This man wants to hide his talents. I will reveal him in the court so that he has nowhere to hide!

So he smiled and said to everyone: "My dear friends, I have many doubts in my heart."

"Actually, let me tell you, there is someone else who can solve the problem this time! Half a month ago, I went to Yangqu County incognito..." Then he asked: "Who knows where Yangqu County is? ?”

The ministers were whispering to each other and discussing a lot. However, no one knows where Yangqu County is.

Emperor Jingjiang sighed in his heart, Lin Xiaofeng had been in business for many years, and he was really capable of hiding it so well.

He continued: "This Yangqu County Magistrate is really a strange person! He actually has a way to move mountains, so I pretended to go and made a deal with Lin Xiaofeng!"

"Since this person has this kind of superpower, why don't you just announce that he will come to provide disaster relief?" A courtier asked immediately.

Emperor Jingjiang smiled and shook his head: "It happened so suddenly, and I learned about it by accident."

Bai Yongyuan asked: "Did your Majesty go on patrol incognito last time to find this person?"

Emperor Jingjiang smiled and said nothing, looking enigmatic.

‘Actually, I went to buy wine, so why would I tell you? ’

"Yes! Although Lin Xiaofeng is only in his twenties, he manages Yangqu County very well and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Now he has achieved this amazing feat again!"

"This man is good at economics. My dear friends, tell me, how should I reward him?"

Bai Yongyuan asked curiously: "Your Majesty, why is this person not famous?"

"Maybe it was because of the remote location that he was forgotten by the court... But I think this person has a lazy personality and may want to live in Yangqu County for the rest of his life."

Emperor Jingjiang made a small plan. If it were true, it would take a lot of words to reward Lin Xiaofeng.

Bai Yongyuan said: "This man is good at both governance and economics. Can I make him a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs, a reward of a thousand taels, and be promoted to two ranks in a row? Or he can enter the Hanlin Academy and serve as a Hanlin bachelor... ·”

The ministers were discussing again.

"good idea!"

"Prime Minister Bai is really thoughtful..."

"I'm afraid this person will have a bright future..."

Emperor Jingjiang frowned and said, "Isn't this reward a bit too low?"

Bai Yongyuan was surprised and thought it was already very high. This reward allowed Lin Xiaofeng to be promoted to two levels in a row and directly enter the household department. His future prospects are very bright!

He asked: "Your Majesty, how do you think he should be rewarded?"

Emperor Jingjiang said seriously: "I told Lin Xiaofeng before that if he can solve this problem, we can make him a marquis and worship him as a prime minister!"

"So I want to give him a title. As for the fiefdom... let's give it to Yangqu County and make him a baron."    "Not only that... the prince has been to Yangqu. The county has gained a lot. I think this person has many wonderful ideas and may be helpful to the prince, so I want him to enter the East Palace and serve as the Taifu of the East Palace!"

The Taifu of the East Palace is the prince's teacher and is responsible for teaching the prince. It is usually held part-time by Hanlin bachelors, and few people do it full-time. Except for the father-in-law, there was no precedent for someone like Lin Xiaofeng to be directly promoted to the East Palace.

If the prince ascends the throne in the future, Lin Xiaofeng will become the emperor's master!

The current three major cabinet officials, Chen Shuguang, Bai Yongyuan, and Li Qiuyan, all once held concurrent positions in the East Palace, so they are very dedicated to this job.

"No!" Chen Shuguang stood up and objected.

"Although Lin Xiaofeng has made great contributions, the reward is too heavy and does not comply with etiquette. I suggest that he be granted the fifth rank."

"This man is still young, about the same age as the prince. How can he teach the prince?"

"I heard that His Majesty values ​​him very much, but although he has outstanding talent, he still needs to hone it. It's not too late to talk about it in the future!"

Emperor Jingjiang was about to speak, but Li Dexian couldn't bear it anymore!

He was already very happy after hearing the good news about building mountains to block floods. Now Lin Xiaofeng can actually attract thunder!

He was even more happy when he heard that his father wanted Lin Xiaofeng to enter the East Palace. Chen Shuguang actually came to intervene!

"Master Chen, I think County Magistrate Lin is very suitable to enter the East Palace."

"I learned a lot on that day in Yangqu County! Ask Taifu Wang!"

Wang Junjie was originally the Tutor of the East Palace and was responsible for teaching the prince. When he heard the prince calling him, he immediately went out to salute.

He said awkwardly: "That's true...Since the prince came back from outside, he has been studying hard...I have memorized several books..."

Wang Junjie almost burrowed into the ground when everyone looked at him strangely.

Everyone knows what the prince's virtue is like, yet they still endorse it? It’s already great to be able to touch the book cover!

Wang Junjie originally thought that the prince had enlightened himself and that the credit could be attributed to him, but he didn't know that Lin Xiaofeng appeared halfway.

Emperor Jingjiang glanced at Li Dexian. This traitor had really worked hard to endorse Lin Xiaofeng into the East Palace.

After hearing this, Chen Shuguang also shut up.

Now that the world has just settled down, nothing is more important than the prince's education.

The prodigal son can never change his fortune! For someone who can change the prince so much, a reward is nothing!

Emperor Jingjiang looked around at the ministers and said calmly: "Ministers...do you have any objections? If there are no objections, I will issue the decree."

···········································

At this time, in the Yangqu County Government Office, Lin Xiaofeng was holding the scroll in his hand, with a smile on his face that showed a hint of pride.

Lin Taohua stood quietly aside, her smart eyes occasionally twitching, revealing her inner doubts and curiosity.

Ever since Emperor Jingjiang visited Yangqu, Lin Xiaofeng has opened up a new world in the bookstore. Those days that used to feel dull and boring suddenly became full of brilliance.

He began to read online novels written by ancient people. The imagination of those ancient people was no less than that of today's people. Lin Xiaofeng felt that it was wonderful.

He especially likes the work "Master Lin and the Seven Little Princesses". Lin Xiaofeng is portrayed in the book as a great man who is unparalleled in the world. His stepmother abused him and even sent assassins to try to kill Master Lin. However, Master Lin had great ambitions, and the hunter was moved by his courage and helped him escape from the deep house and live a carefree life in the forest with the seven little princesses.

As for the stepmother's hatred, the book only briefly mentions it.

Lin Xiaofeng couldn't put it down and couldn't put it down. Every time he finished reading it, he felt that there were not enough words.

He ordered Xie Hongxin to urge the author to update as soon as possible.

Now, this novel has been published in its third edition, "Mr. Lin's Construction of Yangqu County: Many Children and Many Blessings".

"Tsk, tsk, our Yangqu County is really full of talents!" Lin Xiaofeng put down the book, took a sip of tea, and sighed.

Although the idea is good, it’s a pity that the text is too small!

Xie Hongxin should be ordered to imprison that person in a small dark room and update 10,000 words every day!

After putting down the scroll, he felt it was boring, so he asked Lin Taohua: "Is there anything new?"

"It's all trivial matters related to Zhang's family and Li's family, nothing more. But sir, the woman brought back by the miners woke up last night. Do you want to take a look?" Lin Taohua replied.

"Great! I was just going to take a look." Lin Xiaofeng looked very interested.

There are new people in Yangqu County, and they should be sent to the re-employment center. Maybe they can become technicians!

Just as they were told, the two of them took a sedan chair to the hospital.

The doctor saw Lin Xiaofeng coming in person and hurriedly asked them to go to the second floor. They came to the gauze curtain of a side room and saw the woman.

"How is this woman?" Lin Xiaofeng asked.

"She is fine. But her condition is not stable yet. She is sometimes conscious and sometimes comatose, and she is talking nonsense. The old man cannot understand what she said." The doctor replied.

"What does that girl look like?" Lin Xiaofeng asked again.

"It's so beautiful! I've never seen such a beautiful woman at this old age!" the doctor praised.

"Okay, you go down first!" Lin Xiaofeng became very excited when he heard that the woman was so beautiful. He often thought that if he could make black silk, it would be very cool.

However, even if it can be produced, I am afraid it will be difficult for people to accept it...

The doctor turned and left, Lin Xiaofeng gently opened the curtain, and the atmosphere instantly became suffocating.

He saw a woman, about eighteen years old, with black hair hanging softly on the pillow.

Her skin was like solidified fat, her cheeks were as rosy as lychees, her nose was high and her nose had a goose-yellow sheen.

The most eye-catching thing is her pair of slender legs, with perfect proportions as if they were carefully carved by God.

Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath and marveled at the extraordinary beauty of this woman.

I never expected that the clay figurine a few days ago turned out to be this stunning woman. He observed her skin texture. It was obvious that she was not the daughter of ordinary people. It was no accident that he picked up this woman.

Suddenly, he remembered something and asked Lin Taohua: "This woman is the one who was sent to the hospital yesterday, right?"

Lin Taohua replied: "Yes."

"Who gave her a bath?"
