The eyes of all the civil and military officials stayed on Fangshi. Looking at the bustling streets inside, many people nodded secretly in their hearts.
Anyway, on the surface, it's at least remarkable.
However, it is also possible that it was specially arranged by Fang Chen. The real situation needs to be carefully examined.
After the dragon and phoenix landed, Luo Ningxin and Lu Caihuang walked down. Looking at the neat and clean streets, Her Majesty the Empress felt that it was roughly the same as the last time she came to see Ye Xue'e at night.
good.
A group of people in front were already waiting in formation. Li Yun, commander of the Xicheng Troops and Horses Envoy, trotted forward and knelt down with excitement.
This was the first time he met His Majesty the Emperor.
Fang Chen told him before that whether he can be promoted and make a fortune depends on today.
Therefore, Li Yun regarded this review as particularly important.
"Li Yun, the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horse Department, comes to see your majesty, the empress. Long live my emperor, long live my empress, and may my empress live a thousand years."
"Just live your life, Li Yun."
Luo Ningxin spoke, looked at Li Yun who stood up, nodded, and praised: "You are very good."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
Li Yun took a deep breath, glanced at Fang Chen, and then said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the Queen, and all the ministers are respectfully invited to enter Yanghuafang."
Luo Ningxin walked out first, and Fang Chen, Lu Caihuang and the other civil and military ministers walked in together.
Seeing the people from the Military and Horse Division disperse, Xiao San came forward with everyone from the Urban Management Brigade and the workers from the Golden Juice Shop in a troubled and uneasy mood.
They never dreamed that they would be able to see the emperor in person and guide him.
"Xiao San, the captain of the urban management team and the manager of the Golden Juice Store, brings all the urban management and Jinzhi Store personnel to pay homage to our emperor!"
"Kowtow to my emperor!"
A group of people behind him followed Xiao San and knelt down to salute. Their movements were uniform and it was obvious that they had been rehearsed before.
Luo Ningxin let everyone level up and then looked at Fang Chen and asked: "Master Fang, what do the city management and the golden juice industry mean?"
Fang Chen came out and explained to everyone that he heard that the environmental security of Yanghuafang was actually managed by Xiao San and his group, and the ministers couldn't help but be curious.
An official from the Zhang Party looked at Xiao San with evil intentions, walked out and said, "Xiao San, right?"
"It's a villain." Xiao San said quickly.
The official sneered: "Xiao San, I would like to ask you, in which imperial examination are you a Jinshi?"
If it had been before, Xiao San would have felt weak after seeing so many ministers, but Fang Chen had already explained everything to them in advance yesterday.
Therefore, although he was a little frightened, he was able to calm down and said hurriedly: "Reporting to your lord, I am just a commoner in Yanghuafang. I have no fame and have never participated in the imperial examination."
When the official heard this, he immediately laughed and said sarcastically: "Does that mean you are ignorant and incompetent? Are you qualified to manage the entire Yanghuafang?"
Hearing this, Xiao San panicked and glanced at Fang Chen subconsciously. Lu Caihuang and Luo Ningxin also looked at Fang Chen.
But I saw that there was no strange color on his face, and it was just a calm and calm look.
Seeing this, Xiao San quickly took a deep breath to stabilize, then came down and said: "Reporting to your lord, although I have no fame and have not read any sage books, I still understand the situation in Yanghuafang."
Luo Ning was afraid that the official would intimidate Xiao San, so she said, "Then just tell me."
"As commanded."
Xiao San began to talk eloquently, and the nervousness at the beginning gradually became more coherent.
How many streets there are in Yanghuafang, how many lonely elderly people there are, what time the merchants set out their stalls, and what each shop sells are clearly described.
After being the captain of the urban management team for more than two months, Mr. Xiao still put in a lot of effort to transform from a gangster leader to clear his name.
"Thanks to Mr. Fang's teachings, my brothers and I have been given a chance to change our ways. We, these ordinary people who usually have nothing to do, learn and have no skills, can serve the people."
Xiao San looked at Luo Ningxin with some anxiety as he spoke.
I wonder if His Majesty the Emperor is satisfied with my statement.
Guo Wenruo, who was offering wine at the Imperial Academy, said, "Interesting, Mr. Fang's method of governing the people by the people is really refreshing. Indeed, the people who know the living conditions of the people the most are naturally the people themselves."
"Yes, when we were officials in the court, how many of us visited the people in person? When it comes to understanding the situation of the city, naturally we are not as good as Xiao San and others." Zhao Chun, the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, said.
The two of them had been invited by Liu Yuanqing to support the show at Yuehua Tower, but Fang Chen disrupted the situation.
But the two of them sincerely loved the poems and essays written by Fang Chen, so they stood up and said a few words for Fang Chen.
After all, although Zhang Dang is powerful, he cannot dominate the sky with one hand.
The official who had made the attack earlier turned a bit ugly and stood down without saying anything.
Liu Yuanqing was in a daze and looked at Xiao San. Wenxuanfang under his governance did not have any urban management.
At this time, a group of ordinary people suddenly appeared in the market. Everyone came with a smile and beating gongs and drums.
The leader said loudly: "We sincerely welcome your Majesty and the Queen to Yanghuafang. I wish your Majesty and the Queen long life! I wish our Great Yan Dynasty good weather, peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
Hearing this flattery, everyone looked at Fang Chen with disdain. Needless to say, this must have been taught by Fang Chen.
How could such a thing be said by a group of ordinary people?
Fang Chen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, they are business representatives from Fang City. They knew that Your Majesty and the Queen were coming today, so they came here specifically to congratulate them."
Luo Ningxin met with a smile on her face: "Very good, if the people are really like the people of Yanghuafang, then there will be no riots!"
Hearing these words, the faces of Zhang Party officials changed slightly, and Liu Yuanqing was filled with fear.
The merchant representatives began to spread out the red carpet and scatter flowers. The people in the market knelt down to salute and welcomed Luo Ningxin and others. It was a good start.
As Luo Ningxin and the others were walking, some officials soon noticed something different. One of them curiously asked: "Master Fang, the streets of Yanghuafang are so clean and tidy. Could it be that they have been cleaned on purpose?"
Fang Chen smiled slightly, "Xiao San."
Mr. Xiao immediately looked over and explained: "My lord, we have an environmental sanitation policy. No one is allowed to throw away garbage or dump buckets at will, otherwise you will be fined."
An official from Zhang Party snorted coldly: "I don't pay attention to big things, but I pay close attention to small things. So how do you deal with the dirt in Yanghuafang on weekdays?"
Xiao San responded: "Our urban management committee uses horse-drawn carriages to collect the garbage generated in Fangshi at a fixed time every day, and takes it outside the imperial capital for incineration."
"What about the feces?" the official said reluctantly.
Xiao San added: "You can compost it, and then sell it to the squires to grow crops. It's very easy to sell. We at the Golden Juice Shop go to the imperial capital every day to collect manure from door to door and use it to compost and sell it. Don't you know this?"
