The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 347 Maxima and Bole
Li Xiuping's plan is that he will continue to serve in the Imperial Academy this year, and it would be good to serve as a bachelor.

The main reason is that there are many opportunities to contact His Majesty. My daughter-in-law said that she is still researching and experimenting, and she has other good things to present to the Emperor.

In addition, it will take time for crops such as potatoes and corn to be implemented. In Li Xiuping's mind, it is most suitable to seek opportunities for foreign visits in about one or two years.

Before Li Xiuping could show his words in front of the emperor, he wanted a place to practice in a year or two.

As a result, not long after the new year, Li Xiuping was suddenly appointed by Emperor Hongwen to go on a business trip again.

This time, the time was tight and the task was heavy, and it was accompanied by various crises, which made Li Xiuping feel a little heavy.

What Master Li didn't know was that the original auspicious atmosphere of the New Year was forcibly arranged by the emperor, just for the temporary peace of mind.

In fact, not long after the New Year's dinner was over, he received a secret report that epidemics had occurred in many places and the lives of the people had begun to be endangered.

At that time, the emperor urgently let several important cabinet ministers enter the palace, and temporarily held a secret meeting in the imperial study.

The initial origin of the epidemic has not been found out, but it is true that cases have appeared one after another in some areas in the south.

Once a quarrel breaks out, this is a big deal, so local officials dare not slack off.

During the New Year, they did not dare to relax, except to immediately arrange for people to prevent the epidemic, and urgently send people to Beijing to deliver letters.

This is an urgent secret report from eight hundred li, so even though all the chiefs and officials have already rested at home during the New Year, Emperor Hongwen summoned them all to enter the palace temporarily.

At that time, the epidemic was not serious. The main reason was that the livestock were sick at the beginning, but the dead livestock were not controlled well, and it was difficult to control the spread of the disease.

Immediately afterwards, situations occurred in several surrounding areas one after another. The emperor and the Minister of the Household Department were very anxious, but the chief assistant made a decisive decision to block the news.

And let the emperor be stable, at least before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he must participate in the palace banquet in a calm mood.

Because vassal kings from all over the country also come to Beijing to face saints during the New Year, if there is trouble at this time and the hearts of the people are unstable, then it will not only be a problem of the epidemic.

Therefore, the capital is still peaceful, and everyone celebrates the New Year happily. In fact, the situation in the place where the epidemic occurred is already a little serious.

The main reason is the origin of the epidemic. At the beginning of the investigation, local officials thought it was a bird, so it spread rapidly.

After an investigation, I found out that it was someone in southern Sichuan who ate sick pork.

And there is more than one family. After eating it, those families all got sick. After knowing that they could not be cured, they deliberately spread the source of the disease to let it spread.

After the local chief official found out, he managed not to be so angry that he was half dead. He didn't expect that people's hearts could be so dangerous, and finally began to understand how important it is to educate the people.

This is something that can survive safely in the future. The current priority is to quell the epidemic. This is beyond the control of his little magistrate.

Therefore, the local chief official no longer cared about affecting his official career, so he could only write an urgent document and report it to the court.

This kind of important matter related to the safety of the people, the Minister of the Ministry of Households did not dare to neglect, leaving his old wife who was waiting for him to have a banquet at home, and immediately went to the palace to face the saint.

After all, my dynasty has a history of more than a hundred years, and in addition to the past, it's not that I don't know how to arrange such things.

It is nothing more than allocating arrears of medicinal materials to the local area and sealing off all towns and villages in the area where the epidemic is located to prevent the situation from getting worse.

The bigger problem is to stabilize people's hearts. Otherwise, there will be fundamental chaos before the epidemic has wiped out the people, and that will be the taboo of the government.

Nowadays, he is also relying on various means to ascend to power. He has worked hard all these years to make the government more clear, and it is only for the sake of seeing the ancestors in a hundred years so that they can say that they have a clear conscience.

However, those princes and princes from all over the country did not necessarily sincerely submit to His Majesty, so the secret report was suppressed until the emperor summoned all his ministers to discuss major issues after the year.

The epidemic must be extinguished. In addition to allocating money to distribute medicine, the imperial hospital also dispatched a number of imperial physicians for treatment.

In any case, the most capable doctors in the world are concentrated in the Imperial Hospital, and sending imperial doctors there can better express His Majesty's love for the people.

What's more, the emperor issued an order to send soldiers and horses to the disaster-prone places. In addition to helping the people, the city was closed.

In order to prevent the epidemic from spreading to an uncontrollable level, this must be done;
At the same time, in order to avoid people from all over the world criticizing the emperor's heart, besides the imperial physician, the emperor dispatched all his confidants to deal with this matter.

This is also to let the people see that closing the city does not mean letting the residents of those towns die, and the emperor is wholeheartedly trying to save everyone.

So at this time, the status of the imperial envoy that the imperial court wants to be in the lower row is very important, and the light weight can't stop the people talking.

No one expected that it was Prince An who stood up at this time!
Of course, Prince An's identity is strong enough, but his ability to handle things——

The ministers of the DPRK and China who were present all expressed doubts.

In the end, Prince An said that he did not recommend himself, but first recommended a good horse to His Majesty as a bole.

The person recommended by Lord An was Jing Rui. At the same time, King Jingjun knelt down in front of the emperor with a plop and confessed his identity as the son of Jing Rui.

In this way, if Jing Rui led troops on this trip, it would be very legitimate.

He has abilities, he was originally the second place in the examination, and he has been doing very well in the Imperial Academy for the past few years.

As for the eldest son of the county prince's mansion, his identity is enough to show it.

As for the fact that he concealed his identity and took the imperial examination, it was not considered a serious crime, besides, the emperor had always known about it.

It's just that Emperor Hongwen saw that King Jingjun didn't say a word, so he just opened his eyes and closed them.

In this way, things became simpler, the emperor directly handed over this errand to Jing Rui and made it clear that this was an opportunity for him to take the blame and make meritorious service.

Jingrui alone was not enough, so Emperor Hongwen appointed Li Xiuping and Xu Zifan to let the three good brothers go out to work together.

The identity of the prince of the county is even more valuable, but when Emperor Hongwen gave them an order in private, he bluntly said that the chief official of this errand was Li Xiuping.

The matter was settled in this way, and Li Xiuping was still a little dizzy when he returned to the Li Mansion. On the one hand, he was going to travel far away just after the new year and he was less than half a year old.

What's more, I didn't expect that the status of my friend who has been with him for several years is so amazing, the future prince of the county?
But thinking about the fact that he still has the Princess Princess in his family, the relationship between Prince An's Mansion and their Li Mansion has been very good over the past few years, and Li Xiuping is very calm.

After returning home and telling the news to his wife, Fang Qingqing couldn't believe it.

What's more, it feels like God's will.
