The youngest Taifu of the dynasty appeared. He was the 28-year-old No. [-] Scholar Wang Yuanzhi. He studied under Chen Zheng, the elder of the three dynasties.

For a while, Xu Ran was in the limelight.

But to everyone's surprise, Xu Ran did not choose to enter politics after achieving such a great achievement at a young age. It seems that his cabinet bachelor's title is a vacancy.

Xu Ran's current energy is still developing Shengcheng's Enlightenment Academy. A few days ago, he received a letter from Wang Yue, saying that since he won the first prize in the new subject, many people have sent their children to the academy to study, and the current academy is already overloaded. .

"Junior brother, what are you thinking?" Chendi dropped the sunspot in his hand on the emerald jade chessboard, and the clear and sweet voice brought back Xu Ran's thoughts.

Since he recognized the Emperor Chen a few days ago, he was called into the palace by the Emperor Chen. He could see that the Emperor Chen had a kindred spirit towards him, and even more so, he cherished his talent.Once came and went, the two of them directly referred to each other as brothers and sisters in private.

"I'm thinking about the Enlightenment Academy." Xu Ran dropped the white piece in his hand on the edge of the chessboard. The emperor knew about the free Enlightenment Academy he established, so he could bluntly say that he was worried about it.

"Too many students and the place is too small?" Chendi raised his eyebrows.

"Brother, don't laugh at me. At that time, my idea was to civilize the young children in Shengcheng. Although Chongwu makes the country's soldiers strong, the country's culture can make the people cohesive."

"I can't enlighten the young children all over the country at once, and I can't change the people's thinking now, so I start from a small place and do my part."

Xu Ran did not shy away from telling the emperor about this.

In fact, the emperor's thoughts coincided with Xu Ran's, otherwise the emperor would not have stood behind the scenes of Tianfu Academy as an invisible supporter. In the past ten years, Xu Ran was the first student who entered the emperor's eyes.

The current society is too respectful of martial arts. As a high-ranking manager, his own people have no faith and worship people with powerful force. Emperor Chen naturally does not want such a thing to happen.

Therefore, Emperor Chen needs someone to promote and change the old system of Chen Kingdom, and Xu Ran is a very good candidate.

"Then let's build another college." Emperor Chen said.

Xu Ran shook his head, "The current full staff is only temporary. They just fancy my aura, and they don't really want to study. After a while, the staff will go down again."

"What's more, I can build in Shengcheng, and I can build in Rongcheng, but I can't do it all over the country, right? Not to mention anything else, I'm short of money."

Emperor Chen suddenly felt a heartache, "You just asked me because you didn't have money?"

"Of course, you are my senior brother. If you don't help me, who will help me?" Xu Ran said with a face of course.

Just kidding, he wants to do this, but he doesn't want to be used as a chess piece, if he wants to command him, he must give him some benefits, right?

"Here you go, you can decide how much you want." Emperor Chen helplessly helped his forehead.

"Hey, thank you, brother." Xu Ran smiled and cupped his hands, "Oh! I accidentally won again!"

Looking at the chess game on the chessboard, Emperor Chen became even more frustrated. Before, he was only defeated by Taifu Chen, but now even this young junior can beat him.

Seeing that Emperor Chen was in a bad mood, Xu Ran quickly said, "I forgot to have Xiaofeng's class later, so let's go first!"

Looking at the back of Xu Ran running out quickly, Emperor Chen looked at the chess game and frowned worriedly.

Eunuch Sun who was waiting on the side quickly poured tea for Emperor Chen, "Your Majesty, don't you believe in Your Excellency?"

"Of course I can believe it." Emperor Chen stroked the rim of the cup with his hand, "It's just that this matter can only be done slowly and subtly. I'm afraid it will take too long."

Eunuch Sun bowed and said cautiously, "Master Wang is a smart man, and he must be able to understand your thoughts."

"Oh? The younger brother has only been here for a few days, and he bought you?" The emperor looked at Eunuch Sun with a half-smile.

Eunuch Sun was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty has learned a lesson from you. This servant is paying more attention because Mr. Wang is the Emperor's servant."

"Oh, I'm just talking casually, get up."

After Eunuch Sun got up, he didn't dare to speak anymore, secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead in the dark, secretly worried about Xu Ran's safety.

And Xu Ran, who was worried, ran straight to the East Palace. The East Palace was heavily guarded, and the imperial army was everywhere. Even if Xu Ran entered, he would be searched, and no one else could enter without his will.

Seeing Xu Ran's arrival, the maids in the hall saluted one after another. There was a desk made of nanmu wood in the hall, and beside the table sat a chubby little dumpling in a yellow brocade robe.

When Xiaotuanzi saw Xu Ran's eyes lit up, he got up and lifted the loose trouser legs on both sides, and ran towards Xu Ran's arms with his short legs, and shouted childishly, "Master~"

Xu Ran grabbed Xiaotuanzi's soft body and asked, "Did Xiaofeng study hard today?"

"Yes!" Nanfeng replied resoundingly, and the serious look of Bairuantuanzi puffing up his cheeks made the maid beside him couldn't help but laugh.

The prince only practiced martial arts on weekdays, Nanfeng was too hungry to eat hard, and he especially disliked Commander Bai who taught him martial arts. Ever since Xu Ran, who taught literature, appeared, he fell in love with this easy course.

In particular, Xu Ran didn't force him to study, Xu Ran's lectures were humorous and easy to understand, and it was enough to master the knowledge points learned that day, and sometimes he even took him to play with some novel things.

"Then I'll take a hard test to see if you've forgotten what you've learned before." Xu Ran took Nan Feng's chubby hand and sat down at the desk again, flipped through the textbooks and started the school test.

Although Nan Feng is only three years old, he is very smart and has a very nimble little head. Basically, he can understand and comprehend everything that Xu Ran said.

After the school exam, I started to teach today's new course content. Xu Ran added a new class, which is history class.

Today's cultural courses are almost all rigid textbook content, limited to superficial knowledge. The purpose of adding history courses is to let the people feel the weight of historical and cultural changes and arouse their respect and love for their country.

The little prince is Xu Ran's first experimental subject.

After the course was over, Nan Feng was still immersed in the huge worldview that Xu Ran had described, and immediately returned to his senses when Xu Ran asked whether to go to the Imperial Garden to see the flowers.

"Go, go! I'm going!!!"

The prince is young, only three years old, the seventh son of the Emperor Chen, the posthumous son of the former empress.Before Nanfeng, the youngest was ten years old, and now the third prince who is shining in the court is also 20 years old.

Such a big burden fell on the head of a three-year-old child, and the Emperor Chen had a sense of gratitude to the former empress, so he paid special attention to and cared for Nanfeng. He knew the darkness of the harem battle. After half a step out of the palace, the maids around her also changed very diligently.

Only when Xu Ran was around could he be taken out for a breath of fresh air.

When they went out, not only were there many guards in the dark, but there were also many guards in the open. By the time they arrived at the imperial garden, the imperial garden had been completely emptied.

The flowers in the garden were colorful and colorful. Xu Ran introduced the habits and functions of each flower to Nan Feng while walking. The huge amount of knowledge made Nan Feng stunned.

It's just that when he walked in front of a cluster of flowers, Xu Ran suddenly stopped, his eyes were deep.

"Master, what's the matter?" Nan Feng raised his head puzzled.

Xu Ran shook his head, picked him up, pointed to a few pink petals on the steps and said, "This flower is called oleander."

The word oleander is enough to shock all the guards, this is a poisonous flower!How could it appear in the imperial garden that was cleared in advance, and it was still scattered in front of the crown prince's favorite flower color, if the Taifu didn't find it, and the prince touched it curiously...

A cold look flashed across Xu Ran's eyes, and he turned around holding Nanfeng, "Let's go, there's nothing to see today."

Nan Feng was also ignorant of the seriousness of the matter, hugged Xu Ran's neck with both hands, and left obediently.

The darkness of the palace... No wonder the emperor protected Nanfeng so tightly, but even so, the news leaked out, and even the poisonous things went directly to Nanfeng.

After Xu Ran left, a bloody search was immediately launched in the palace.

After that day, Xu Ran couldn't go to Nanfeng for the time being, and every time he entered the palace and played chess with Emperor Chen, he chatted about the progress of the academy for a while.

Now that the college is in urgent need of teachers, Wang Yue and the others who have temporarily replaced them have already started preparing for the imperial examinations, and they probably don't have much thought to manage the college later.

Fortunately, after the emperor learned about the situation, he immediately allocated a group of people. These people were students who had passed the examination of the emperor before but were not capable enough.Now with Xu Ran, these people will naturally be used by Xu Ran to maximize their benefits.

On this day, when Xu Ran went there, he found that the atmosphere in the hall was not right. The emperor did not sit in front of the chessboard for a long time, nor did he review the memorial, but frowned.

"Brother?"

Emperor Chen saw him coming, "It's just in time for you to come, I'm worried about something."

Xu Ran tilted his head in confusion.

"The Kingdom of Chen has a vast territory, starting from the Longyun Mountains in the east, and reaching the boundless Xunhai Sea in the south. In order to ensure the safety of the people of the Kingdom of Chen, a ban on the sea has been issued, and it has been more than 30 years now."

Xu Ran nodded, "But there is a problem along the coast?"

"That's right, a month ago, some villagers rescued two strange-looking men while fishing at the seaside. They are not from the Chen country, nor from other small countries that they know."

They are even taller, with deep outlines and scantily clad. There is also a person with blue eyes who wakes up and speaks words that are completely incomprehensible. It is said that it sounds like a bird or a frog. It is unheard of and unseen, very strange. "

"Could it be a hidden person?"

"Impossible." Emperor Chen directly denied this answer, "I have ordered them to be transported to the capital quickly, and I will take the interpreter with me when the time comes, and you should accompany me."

Xu Ran was also a little curious, "Yes."

"Have you found the person who poisoned Xiaofeng the day before yesterday?"

Speaking of this emperor, he became annoyed, "It was the maid in the palace who was bribed, but she committed suicide when she was found out."

Xu Ran knew that it would be more difficult for Nanfeng to travel in the future, but he looked through the plot in his mind after a long absence, and found that there was no Seventh Prince in the plot, and there was no statement from the former prince, which meant that Xiaofeng might was killed.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince seeks an audience." Eunuch Sun said cautiously.

"No!" Emperor Chen waved his hand angrily.

"Er... Your Majesty, the third prince said he has something important to see." Eunuch Sun bent so much that his head was almost on the ground.

"...Then let him in." The Emperor Chen frowned with impatience.

"Yes." After Eunuch Sun went out, an imposing young man stepped into the hall, and Xu Ran knew at the first sight that it was the man who Li Wenfu licked his face.

"My son is joining the father." The third prince nodded to Xu Ran, "Master Wang is also here."

"Third prince." Xu Ran replied politely.

The third prince naturally knew Xu Ran. It can be said that Xu Ran indirectly broke the line of Concubine Wen Gui, and also damaged one of his right-hand assistants, Li Wenfu. Less planning, how could the third prince not hate all these.

"Why did you come to see me?" Chen Di asked impatiently.

The third prince glanced at Xu Ran without leaving any trace, Xu Ran shrugged indifferently, "Your Majesty, that minister will retire first."

When Xu Ran left, Emperor Chen was extremely impatient, "What's the matter?"

The third prince suddenly knelt down on the cold ground, and called out with a sad face, "Father, Concubine Wen, I'm afraid she can't do it anymore. I beg you to see her for the last time because of the old love." !"

After finishing speaking, the third prince kowtowed vigorously.

Concubine Wen Gui has been favored for a long time. If it wasn't for Li Wenfu who cheated in the imperial examination to plead for mercy, the Emperor would not have tired of her. Now that Concubine Wen Guifei is going to die, he can't help but think of the old days and feel a little soft-hearted.

"Then I will go with you."

Emperor Chen sighed, and went to the direction of Leng Gong first.

The third prince who followed behind lowered his head, and a successful smile flashed across his eyes.
