Chapter 178 Determined to win

  Fang Jifan returned to the mansion with a gloomy face, the doorman saw that the young master came back alone, but he didn\'t know where Tang Yin and the others had gone, and couldn\'t help feeling suspicious.

  Just seeing the young master with a livid face and looking in a bad mood, the doorman didn\'t dare to ask more questions, but whispered: "Master, there is a Taoist visiting."

   "Oh." Fang Jifan put on a stern look, as if someone provoked him.

   In fact, only Fang Jifan knows, he is very happy in his heart!

  Five Scholars, and they directly filled the top three of the first class. In the future, these five disciples will become officials. Is Fang Jifan not happy?

  Of course, it is absolutely impossible to show a happy look now.

  Well, it must be heartbreaking.

  Taking this great opportunity, hit these five guys hard!

  With the lessons learned by Xu Jing, let them understand that they must listen to the words of their mentors. For such things, if there is one, there will be another, and any evil thoughts they may have are strangled in the bud.

  But... a Taoist came?

  Fang Jifan asked, "Where is the man?"

   Observing Fang Jifan\'s expression, the disciples thought that this time the young master\'s students did not do well in the exam, so they were trembling, fearing to offend the young master, and hurriedly said: "In the hall, he said that the young master is his uncle."

  Fang Jifan\'s eyes flashed lightly, he already knew who it was, nodded, and walked quickly to the mansion.

  As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw Li Chaowen wearing a Taoist scarf and Taoist uniform, shaking his head and sighing restlessly with a sad face.

As soon as Li Chaowen saw Fang Jifan, his red eyes blurred immediately, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he knelt down at Fang Jifan\'s feet with a thud, and said in a mournful voice: "Master, save me, master, save me. "

   "..."

   Scum!

  Fang Jifan scolded in his heart, looking at this spineless and hopeless appearance.

   "What\'s wrong?" Fang Jifan sat down with his legs crossed.

Li Chaowen burst into tears, and said, "Ever since my nephew took charge of the Zhaitang, my brother has been making things difficult for me. Just a few days ago, someone actually slandered my nephew for being greedy for money and things in the Zhaitang. They are framing me, Master." In my nephew\'s bedroom, for some reason, they confiscated a lot of gold, silver and jewels, but when my nephew was in the Zhaitang, how could he dare to be greedy for property? Martial nephew kicked out... Martial uncle... I have been a Taoist priest since I was a child, and I have no family. If I was kicked out of Longquan Temple, where would I go..."

  Fang Jifan was not surprised when he heard this, but he was also surprised...

   It\'s no surprise that Zhang Chaoxian is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he must clean up Li Chaowen, but the surprise is, Mr. Li Chaowen, don\'t you have any f---ing wrists? You won\'t win over and unite the brothers and sisters, won\'t you fight back?

   This guy is a waste.

   "Uncle, the trail is over, it\'s over, the elder brother will never let the nephew go, uncle, what should we do now, what should we do."

  Fang Jifan looked at Li Chaowen, who looked extremely cowardly, with a cold face.

  Hey... It is obviously impossible to expect Li Chaowen to defeat Zhang Chaoxian by relying on his IQ. This guy has no IQ at all.

  But... just give up on Li Chaowen completely?

   Abandoning him means that the land of Longquan Temple has disappeared. Although he is a master uncle with a very high seniority, he is not a professional Taoist priest after all, and he cannot interfere with the practice of Longquan Temple.

  Land, such a large piece of land, must be obtained.

  But... how to solve it?

  Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes, and suddenly said: "Do you have any special skills?"

  Special... specialty?

  Fang Jifan asked this question suddenly, Li Chaowen was stunned, he lowered his head, unable to answer.

  Fang Jifan looked at him coldly, and continued: "Since you are a Taoist priest, should you know how to pray for rain?"

"Pray... pray for rain... no... no way." Li Chaowen\'s face was ashen, and his face turned green with fright: "Uncle, who would pray for rain? If you can really pray for rain, this capital has been dry for so long. A decree has been made to pray for rain a long time ago, Master Uncle, stop joking, praying for rain... This is a non-existent thing, and it cannot be taken as real."

  Fang Jifan was very moved. It is rare for a Taoist priest to pray for rain to himself, which is a lie. This made Fang Jifan realize that the native Taoism is really real.

but…

  Fang Jifan looked at him seriously and said, "You can\'t pretend?"

   "This, will... yes..."

Fang Jifan sneered and said: "Then pray for rain. If the rain can come down, who can drive you out of Longquan Temple? By then, there will be no place for your senior brother in Longquan Temple. Now there has been a severe drought for several months. Up to the palace, down to the soldiers and civilians, everyone longs for the rain, and it is a great credit for you to ask for it."

Li Chaowen was stunned for a moment, and then said with a bitter face: "Uncle, it\'s time now, so stop joking, this is all a trick of deception, God... God is also a deceit, even if it is the real king in the sky , What kind of ghosts... are all... all nonsense, nonsense, my nephew has been watching for decades, don\'t you understand? There is no Dragon Lord in this world, there is no Dragon Lord, who to pray for rain..."

  Fang Jifan bared his teeth. Of course he knew that there is no dragon king in this world. Could it be that our Fang Jifan will not understand science like you, a 16th-century Taoist priest?

However... Fang Jifan seems to vaguely remember that there was a heavy rain after the severe drought in the 12th year of Hongzhi recorded in the official annals of Beizhili. The time was probably ten days later. Of course, did it rain or not? Fang Jifan didn\'t know the exact time when it rained.

  Praying for rain is always a risk. If you pray for it, it will be a great credit. When the time comes...

   I can’t pray, anyway, you Li Chaowen is going to die, so let’s treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

So Fang Jifan made a decision, and said: "This matter is settled like this. After ten days, pray for rain, and His Royal Highness will personally preside over it. Fang Jifan is a very real person, so I will tell you the truth, this rain will come down." , Your Highness the Crown Prince and I have made a great contribution, and you naturally have the credit. If the rain cannot be prayed for, it means that His Highness the Crown Prince was deceived by you, an evil Taoist. You should know what will happen. You should prepare early, in fact, praying for rain is very easy, blowing on the fire, burning paper, chanting scriptures, that\'s it!"

   "Uncle Master..." Li Chaowen wailed!

   It hasn\'t rained for several months, and there is no possibility of rain in the next few months. This... doesn\'t this make him court death? On such a day, let him pray for some ghostly rain.

  So he said with tears streaming down his face: "Master...I don\'t know anything, Master please forgive me."

  Fang Jifan snorted coldly: "After ten days, there will definitely be rain. What are you talking about, do you have to kill you to be reconciled? Shut up, go back now and wait for the news."

   "..."

  Fang Jifan naturally wouldn’t be too polite when dealing with people like Li Chaowen who had no opinion.

   Now the large-scale planting of sweet potatoes is imminent. For the ten thousand hectares of fertile land in Longquan Temple, Fang Jifan is determined to win it, and he can\'t wait.

   In order to save countless hungry people who are about to come, what are you, Li Chaowen, if you die, you will die.

  This is killing one person and saving thousands of people. In an instant, Fang Jifan found that his spirit had sublimated again.

   What\'s more, I still have confidence in praying for rain, and you, Li Chaowen, may not die.

  Looking at Fang Jifan with a face as cold as frost, Li Chaowen suddenly despaired!

Obviously, he was frightened by Fang Jifan\'s aura, especially his uncle\'s murderous look, which shocked him. He had been a Taoist priest on the mountain all his life, and was oppressed by his senior brother. Courage to keep haggling? Only trembling, sadness from the heart. Oh my god, this uncle really screwed me to death.

   What a crime!

  But at this time, the doorman came in a hurry and said: "Young master, young master, someone came from the palace, and delivered an oral order from His Majesty, ordering the young master to enter the palace immediately. It is said...the palace also sent someone to pass on the crown prince and the master."

   Breathing a sigh of relief, the door said again: "Young master, hurry up, it is urgent, your majesty is already waiting in the Nuan Pavilion, young master, don\'t delay."

  This... What is the situation again.

  Fang Jifan was a little confused.

  Have you done anything wrong recently?

Maybe not.

   That\'s good, that\'s good.

  However... Fang Jifan was still a little uneasy. After all, the emperor suddenly thought of himself, which was too unreasonable.

  He didn\'t care about Li Chaowen anymore, and ordered him to go back to prepare for the matter, while he got up quickly and hurried to the Meridian Gate on horseback.

   Just got off the horse, Fang Jifan happened to see Zhu Houzhao\'s car also just arrived.

  Zhu Houzhao got out of the car, and when he saw Fang Jifan, he stepped forward with joy and said, "Old Fang, I\'m really happy for you. I heard that your student won the number one prize."

  The two disappeared for some days, but they were very warm.

   Today, Zhu Houzhao also ordered someone to go to the Gong Yuan to read the list. After getting the news, he was really taken aback by the list, it was too cruel.

not only…

  Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan with admiration and cheerfulness: "There is another great thing, hey, have you heard any rumors?"

  Fang Jifan shook his head in bewilderment.

"It\'s a great victory!" Zhu Houzhao almost threw the other party\'s successors into the ground, and said with high spirits: "Guizhou... a great victory! The news has not yet come out. I heard that the father has ordered the imperial court to draft a memorial. Do you know? , what kind of victory is this?"

   Hearing about the great victory, Fang Jifan was relieved. It\'s kind of a gesture, at least it lightened the court\'s burden, but... the great victory doesn\'t seem to have anything to do with him, it\'s none of my business!

  I had a good night\'s sleep and felt very comfortable. The second chapter was delivered. Thank you, Cui Yougeng, for being the leader of the third book. Thank you for the rewards and monthly tickets from many students yesterday. This book has just started, keep working hard.
