Acacia does not fail to turn the year

Chapter 626
Chapter 654 The Seductive Concubine

"Master Hou also cares about you. It's not too early for you to marry a wife, but it's definitely not too late." Liang Wenyuan said.

"However, getting a wife is so simple. I haven't met a good person now, how could I marry a wife casually?" Baili Zheng said righteously.

"Okay, let the matter of marrying a wife and having children go with the flow, there is no need to get too entangled." Nan Xian said lightly.

Baili Zheng nodded and said nothing more.

The results of the imperial examinations have come out, and a total of ten people entered the imperial examination.

In the court hall, all civil and military officials are here, Nanxian Wuyang will present questions in public, and when these ten people are tested, all the questions will be the same, and they will answer one by one.

"Choose Lu Lingfeng for an audience." Xiao Dezi shouted loudly.

Then Lu Lingfeng walked in with big strides.

"Grassmen see the emperor, long live my emperor." Lu Lingfeng knelt down and saluted.

"Mianli, are you Lu Lingfeng?" Nan Xian Wuyang looked at Lu Lingfeng and asked.

"Back to the emperor, the grassroots is Lu Lingfeng."

"Where are you from?" Nan Xian asked Wuyang.

"Caomin is from Jiangnan." Lu Lingfeng replied truthfully.

Nan Xian knew nothing was wrong, nodded, and then started to ask the real question.

"If the flood in the south of the Yangtze River breaks out now, you are the main person in charge. From the beginning to the end, what kind of decision will you make? How to effectively solve this natural disaster?" Nanxian Wuyang asked.

This topic is beneficial to Lu Lingfeng. He grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, and he should know the flood situation in the south of the Yangtze River best.

Everyone stared at him, waiting for his answer.

"According to the grassroots, after the floods in the south of the Yangtze River began, the first thing to do is to appease the people's emotions, the second is to open food warehouses, and the third is to find out the scope of the disaster and the specific cause of the flood. Everything happens for a reason, only fundamentally. Only by taking precautions can we avoid the next occurrence." Lu Lingfeng said it very simply, but in the simplicity, it revealed that he was thoughtful and considered all aspects.

"What if the flood is man-made? For example, a corrupt official cut corners on a certain project, causing the river to burst its embankment and cause flooding." Nanxian Wuyang continued to ask.

Lu Lingfeng listened to Nan Xian's words, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Find out who it is and behead it for public display."

As soon as Lu Lingfeng's words came out, everyone looked at Lu Lingfeng in panic, thinking that he was too courageous. If he dared to say such words, wouldn't he be afraid of offending others?
And Nanxian Wuyang was most satisfied with his answer, "Is it too harsh to beheaded for public display?" Nanxian Wuyang asked deliberately.

Lu Lingfeng's face immediately changed, "The grassroots people don't think it's harsh. The south of the Yangtze River is the world's grain and rice warehouse. Once a large-scale flood breaks out, the consequences will be unimaginable. How many people will be displaced? How many people will starve to death? Such corrupt officials must not be tolerated!"

Lu Lingfeng said righteously, no matter what he was upright, he couldn't hide it.

"I already know your answer, you can step back and wait for the answer." After Nanxian Wuyang finished speaking, someone took Lu Lingfeng down.

"Which of the ten people do you think gave the best answer?" Nan Xian asked Wuyang.

There was a long silence, no one dared to speak.

"Your Majesty, I feel that the third candidate, Liu Zhunzhi, performed very well." A stubborn minister said, and then someone followed suit.

"Does anyone else have other opinions?" Nanxian Wuyang obviously felt that Liu Zhunzhi was not the best one.

Indeed, his performance was also very good, but compared with Lu Lingfeng, it was far behind.

"Your Majesty, I feel that this last Lu Lingfeng is the most thoughtful and decisive, he is a rare talent." Liang Wenyuan stood up and said.

"My minister seconded the proposal." Baili Zheng said in agreement.

"The two lovers think the same as I do. I also think that Lu Lingfeng's answer is the most comprehensive. If so, Lu Lingfeng will be the No. [-] scholar in this year's imperial examination. Liu Zhunzhi will be second, Wu Ruichang will be Tanhua, and the other seven will be Jinshi." Nan Xian said innocently.

Seeing that Nanxian Wuyang made a decision so quickly, the people below thought that the emperor had already made up his mind at the beginning, and asking their opinions was just a formality. Everyone knew that Liang Wenyuan and Baili Zheng belonged to the emperor. Naturally, he will help the emperor.

This is the emperor's routine.

As a result, Lu Lingfeng became the number one scholar in the new department and was placed in the Imperial Academy. Liang Ziping took him to familiarize himself with the official system and rules of the capital.

At that time, Zhuge chose Ming as the right minister, Liang Wenyuan as the grand tutor, Shangguan Lifei as the left minister, and Baili Zheng was the only heir of the Baili family. As the generals of the family, these people are Nanxian Wuhai's right-hand men, and now there is another Lu Lingfeng, it is estimated that soon, there will be a big move in the court.

There will be reforms when every emperor succeeds, and Nanxian Wuyang is no exception.

The more Nan Xian Wuyang looked at him, the more he felt that Lu Lingfeng was a talent, so he left many things to Lu Lingfeng, and he and Lu Lingfeng quickly became good friends.

"Ling Feng, do you have a marriage?" Nan Xian asked tentatively.

Perhaps, he can introduce Lu Lingfeng to An Ran, the two of them seem to be a good match.

"Back to the emperor, my minister has never been married." Lu Lingfeng said truthfully.

"How about I introduce someone to you?" When Nan Xian Wuyang heard Lu Lingfeng said that he had no marriage partner, his eyes flashed brightly.

Lu Lingfeng was a little embarrassed. I don't know why, when Nanxian Wuyang talked about introducing someone to him, he remembered the woman that day in his mind, but he couldn't forget it after a glimpse.

"I don't know who is the woman that the emperor wants to introduce to this minister?" Lu Lingfeng asked.

The emperor has personally arranged for a matchmaker, and he wants to meet anyway, otherwise it will be too disrespectful to the emperor.

"It's my imperial sister, An Ran." Nan Xian said Wuyang.

"Anran? You mean Anran?" Lu Lingfeng became very excited when he heard Anran's name.

"Do you know An Ran? Probably not?" Nan Xian Wuyang looked at Lu Lingfeng in surprise and asked.

"Maybe. Maybe it's just a coincidence. Wei Chen once met a woman, and she said her name was An Ran." Lu Lingfeng was very excited at this time, with a hint of joy in his heart.

Nan Xian Wuyang felt that there might be something going on between him and An Ran, so he directly arranged for the two of them to meet.

An Ran originally stayed well in the Pearl Palace, but suddenly received a notice from Nan Xian Wuyang, saying that he had something to look for herself, so An Ran came to the Imperial Study to look for Nan Xian Wuyang.
