After these two episodes, Zhang San gained some new understanding of his situation. He thought that he should prepare early when he returns home next morning, and at least make a plan for his future escape.
He has only been a lord for a few days and is being targeted. Life will definitely be difficult in the future. This officialdom is so fucking dark. It’s better to quit as soon as possible.
Zhang San was thinking wildly in his mind, not paying attention to what everyone said behind him, when he was suddenly pulled by Cheng Yaojin in front of him.
Then I heard Li Shimin ask: "Mr. Zhang County, what do you think of this matter?"
"Ah, oh, I'll report back to you, Your Majesty." Zhang Sanyi replied blankly, feeling that he had been distracted thinking about the question just now, but by chance, he was called on by the emperor again. It was really like being called on by the teacher while sleeping in class.
When Li Shimin heard this, he immediately became angry. Good guy, someone actually deserted my court meeting. If you don't say anything today, I want you to look good.
Looking at Li Shimin's half-smiling expression, Zhang San suddenly shouted in his heart: "What a bad guy, Li Shimin spotted me, so careless. This is not a class in my previous life. At best, I will be punished if I can't answer the question. If I don't answer well, then...
But it is possible to lose your head.
But I didn't hear what you said at all, how should I answer?" Zhang San was anxious in his heart, thinking about how to respond.
Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin saw Zhang San's predicament and responded: "To inform the emperor, Zhang San is still young and may not have enough knowledge. Besides, the flood in Henan is a big deal. What does this bastard know?"
."
Cheng Yaojin obviously scolded Zhang San for being ignorant, but everyone knew in their hearts that he was excusing Zhang San.
I just don’t know why Cheng Yaojin defends Zhang San so much.
Zhang San was also filled with gratitude. When Cheng Yaojin said this, Zhang San probably understood what the emperor and the others had just said.
"Gong Lu, please step back. I want to hear Zhang San's opinion." Li Shimin raised his hand and told Cheng Yaojin to step back.
Cheng Yaojin had nothing to do about this. Although he could usually make jokes and act stupid in front of the emperor, he knew that the emperor was also testing Zhang San by asking him this question. If Zhang San answered well, he could temporarily block Cui San.
The mouths of Dian and others.
Of course, if Zhang San's answer is useless, then Zhang San will completely disappear from the court, and Zhang San can only face everything by himself.
Zhang San searched through his knowledge reserves, thinking that in the early years of Zhenguan, there seemed to be no major floods, right?
But since this is Henan, the Yellow River, the mother river, must have lost its temper again.
After sorting out the methods in his mind about how to deal with flood disasters in his previous life, Zhang San took a deep breath and replied: "To report to the emperor, I believe that we should adhere to a basic principle and do it in three steps."
"Oh, what are the basic principles and how to do it?" Li Shimin suddenly became interested after hearing this refreshing answer.
Before Zhang San could explain his thoughts, Zheng Yushi Zheng Qing jumped out again and accused Zhang San of being a child with a yellow mouth and talking nonsense.
"Grandma, you are so eager to bite me. Are you a dog?" Zhang San cursed in his heart.
"Then I dare to ask Mr. Zheng, what did I say that made you come out and bark so impatiently? Zhang San replied rudely.
Cui Dian in front also scolded this old guy in his heart. He has lived a long life like a dog. If you want to cause trouble for him, you should wait for him to finish talking. There is no city government at all, so you can rely on the support of the Zheng family.
, otherwise I would have packed up and left long ago.
Although they are from the same aristocratic family, Cui Dian will not ask for trouble at this time. He will wait until Zhang San has finished speaking. If what he said is nothing, then Heng Heng will have something to play with.
"You..." Choking on Zhang San's words, Zheng Qing pointed at Zhang San's nose and didn't say a word for a long time. He also knew that he was too anxious just now and shouldn't jump out at this time.
"What, Zheng Yushi, do you have any advice?" Li Shimin asked with a frown.
"I, I will plead guilty." Zheng Qing was really riding a tiger at this moment. If he had known how to do it, he would have jumped out and performed it long ago. How could he have waited until now.
"If you don't know, just retreat. If you dare to interrupt randomly, huh." Although Li Shimin didn't say the consequences, Zheng Qing was already dripping with cold sweat at this time and retreated obediently.
"Go on," Li Shimin turned to Zhang San and said.
Zhang San laughed so hard in his heart that this guy had a funny brain.
Hearing Li Shimin's question, Zhang San hurriedly replied: "Reporting to the emperor, one of the so-called basic principles is to put people first, taking the safety of people's lives and property as the first principle, mobilizing local officials, government officials and even the army to actively rescue people affected by floods.
People affected by disasters must try their best to protect their personal and property safety."
When Li Shimin heard this, he was very satisfied with Zhang San's point of view, and Fang Xuanling and other ministers were also refreshed.
Cui Dian frowned unconsciously. He never thought that this mud-legged man could have such an opinion. Although the answer was very official, there was nothing to criticize.
Zhang San ignored the reactions of everyone present and continued to answer: "The three steps are: first, transfer the affected people, centralize the management of the sub-districts, open warehouses to provide food relief, and provide the victims with the most basic living material guarantees."
“Second, to prevent possible diseases after major disasters, victims should be moved to ventilated and dry places, establish isolation points, remove mosquitoes to avoid spreading diseases, sprinkle lime and other disinfectants on them, and teach victims to drink boiled water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
Hygiene, prevention of malaria and other diseases.”
"Third, actively prepare for post-disaster reconstruction, dredge rivers, and strengthen river embankments..."
Although the points mentioned by Zhang San are very official, it is rare for Zhang San to have such an opinion. At the same time, Zhang San's performance is also refreshing to everyone. It is nothing like anything else. He does not quote the classics and speaks straightforwardly, but he points directly to the key points, which makes Li Shimin
He glanced at Zhang San again.
Being able to write poems about "traveling is difficult" and having such insights, after a few years of training, he will become a pillar of society.
At this time, Cui Dian's face was gloomy. He didn't expect that this kid Zhang San still had some ability. Regardless of how feasible it was, it was difficult to overturn the saying "people-oriented", and the current emperor loves his people like his own children. This sentence is true.
The heart of the emperor.
If Zhang San comes from an aristocratic family, it will definitely be a big help in the future, but seeing how Cheng Yaojin defends Zhang San, and knowing from other places that Zhang San once saved Cheng Chumo's life, I think Zhang San will definitely stand on the emerging side in the future.
On Xungui's side, this made Cui Dian, who came from an aristocratic family, very unhappy.
Thinking of Li Shimin defending Zhang San twice in the court today, Cui Dian seemed to have smelled a conspiracy, a conspiracy against aristocratic families. Thinking of this, Cui Dian felt very uneasy. Li Shimin was very fond of these aristocratic families.
Wary.
Knowing that he couldn't perform surgery on Zhang San today, he drilled his fists to calm down and stopped talking.
"Okay, very good. Although some of the suggestions are still difficult for Datang to implement at the moment, your opinions are also very popular with me. I think there should be many details in it. You can draw up these when you go back.
Come out and submit the charter to me."
"My lord, I obey the order," Zhang San replied.
After that, they talked about some things one after another, and the morning session ended.
After leaving the Xuanzheng Hall, Cheng Yaojin laughed and said to Zhang San: "Good boy, you performed well today. If you have nothing to do, come home to play with that boy Mo."
He patted Zhang San on the shoulder, and the corners of Zhang San's mouth twitched. If you don't do this, you can't show your boldness. My little arms and legs can't bear it.
Of course, his heart was also very warm. Zhang San was grateful from the bottom of his heart for Cheng Yaojin's protection today. He cupped his hands and said to Cheng Yaojin: "Thank you, Uncle Cheng, for your protection today. I will keep it in my heart."
"Okay, if the family doesn't talk to each other, if anything happens in the future, you can come to me at Duke Lu's house." Cheng Yaojin replied.
To this, Zhang San responded happily. After leaving the palace, Zhang San found Fugui and rushed home by car.
"Sir, how are you going to court today?" Zhang Fugui asked.
"It's okay, I just woke up early and am a little sleepy." Zhang San replied with squinted eyes.
"Then, my lord, I will sleep in the carriage for a while, and I will call you when I get home."
Along the way, Zhang San closed his eyes and thought about everything that happened in the hall today. "It seems that today is just a tentative attack. There should be some evil tricks waiting for me later, right?" Zhang San said to himself.
"Hmph, just wait for me. If you get too desperate, I'll get a dynamite pack and blow up all of you." Zhang San cursed fiercely in his mind.
