The Flatterer and the Emperor (13) A World-Destroying Embarrassment



Luo Junchuan didn't care. Seeing that his young creditor had almost finished eating, he began to explain the day's arrangements to him: "Today, I will help you review memorials in the morning. In the afternoon, you will study the art of governing a country with Fu Renliang. I told you before, if you want to learn, you can learn. If you don't want to learn, you can find a teacher yourself."

Gong Chenliang looked at him and nodded. He really didn't know what the man in front of him wanted to do. It seemed that nothing was bad for him yet. He would just take it one step at a time and see!

Today's memorial is the same as yesterday's. Apart from some trivial matters, there is only one thing - drought.

The scope of this drought is getting wider and wider, and several states around Jingzhou have been affected to varying degrees.

Luo Junchuan pointed to the memorial on the drought and asked, "How do you want to review this memorial?"

Gong Chenliang blinked: "The disaster is so serious, we must open the granary to provide food."

Luo Junchuan nodded: "Opening the granaries to provide food is one thing, but we also have to solve the drought problem."

"Solve? Do you know that drought is a natural disaster?"

Luo Junchuan didn't care about Gong Chenliang's big reaction. Ancient people regarded natural disasters as a very serious matter, and he had to understand.

He patiently explained, "Natural disasters can also be solved. I've looked at the terrain of Jingzhou these past few days. There's a large river surrounding Jingzhou. We can use this river to solve the drought in Jingzhou."

Gong Chenliang listened to Luo Junchuan's plan and felt sincerely that Luo Junchuan was really a good hand at governing the country.

At least, he was ashamed of himself.

Luo Junchuan patted his head: "I'll leave this matter to you to solve. If you have any questions, come and ask me. Okay, do you have any other questions now?"

As a ruler, Gong Chenliang naturally knew that if he did this well, it would greatly help his reputation among the people. He was confused: "Why...why?"

"I told you, I regret it, and I want to make it up to you."

Luo Junchuan said gently.

Gong Chenliang was a little confused, but still nodded meekly.

Luo Junchuan squinted his eyes gently and rubbed his head: "That's good~"

"I've also read all these memorials. Aside from the severe drought in Jingzhou, they're all trivial matters. But as the saying goes, 'If you can't clean up your own house, how can you clean up the world?!' So after I've helped you resolve the Jingzhou issue, you'll have to learn to handle these small matters on your own. You can choose to try to solve them yourself first. If you really can't, wait until your teacher comes in the afternoon and then ask him; or you can just wait until he comes in the afternoon and let him help you resolve these matters.

However, I'm warning you: the second method isn't very conducive to your growth. If you want to grow faster, try to solve problems on your own, then categorize the areas you don't understand and ask for solutions based on those areas. (Whisper: This method also works for learning. I used to be able to study well, and I used this method.)

It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. How could Gong Chenliang not understand Luo Junchuan's painstaking efforts?

But... thinking of what Luo Junchuan had done before, Gong Chenliang decided to give up his prejudice against Luo Junchuan and accept him again from the bottom of his heart. If, he was really good to him.

"Do you want to go out for a walk? Take a look at the beautiful scenery in my mansion?" Luo Junchuan hurriedly said to Gong Chenliang. Gong Chenliang had stayed in the house for a long time. He thought that Gong Chenliang was just a fifteen-year-old child. He had to endure so much now. If he took over the throne in the future, wouldn't his childhood be buried?!

So Luo Junchuan thought of taking him out to have some fun while the burden on his shoulders wasn't too heavy yet.

Gong Chenliang originally wanted to refuse. Luo Junchuan gave him such a good opportunity to grow, how could he give up any chance?

He wants to stay in the study forever!

However, he felt an inexplicable movement in his heart, and he wanted to see what kind of environment the man in front of him lived in.

For some unknown reason, he nodded.

Luo Junchuan naturally brought the person out of the house.

This was also the first time that Luo Junchuan officially visited his own palace. There were many places in it that he could not imagine: for example, the rockery was made of soil transported from the snow-capped mountains. The reason was that Luo Junchuan heard from somewhere that flowers grown with soil from the snow-capped mountains were more delicate and beautiful.

So Luo Junchuan asked people to transport soil from the snow-capped mountains.

There is also the water in the pond. In order to allow the fish he raised to grow stronger, Luo Junchuan opened a canal outside the city and brought in fresh water specifically for his fish to survive.

For another example, the fish in the water were the fish offered as tribute by foreign envoys. Even the little emperor Gong Chenliang had none of them. All of them were sent to his palace.

Luo Junchuan couldn't help but twitch his mouth as he watched all this: He knew that he was quite extravagant before, but he didn't know that he was extravagant to this extent!

Moreover, he was accompanied by a small creditor to witness it. A minister was actually richer and more extravagant than the emperor of a country. Just thinking about it makes me feel a little ashamed~!

"Greetings, Your Highness." Luo Junchuan was feeling awkward all the way, when suddenly he heard a beautiful voice greeting him.

Luo Junchuan's eyes widened: Oh my god! My benefactor! Finally, I don't have to be embarrassed with the little emperor!

But when he realized it, he was completely stunned:

——The person I met was an old acquaintance: Rong Tingyun.

In Luo Junchuan's mind, there were ten thousand great beasts of the grassland flying through his mind.

Oh my god, the sky is going to kill me! What kind of evil fate is this~~~

Finally someone came to save me. I thought he was the savior, but who knew he was the Satan from hell.

It’s better not to come!

Luo Junchuan secretly glanced at Gong Chenliang's reaction. Although Gong Chenliang had no love for Rong Tingyun, he treated Rong Tingyun as his own relative.

So the moment he saw Rong Tingyun, his heart tensed up. He looked up and down nervously, carefully examining Rong Tingyun. Only after he was sure that she was living well in the palace, even better than before, did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Luo Junchuan only saw Gong Chenliang nervously sizing up Rong Tingyun. He closed his eyes in despair. "Oh my god, how could you arrange this? They're just old lovers meeting, and right in front of me! And!!! And they're meeting while I'm trying to please them both!!!"

Oh, heaven, oh, earth, please destroy me~~~

Life is hopeless and the world is not worth living.

goodbye.

Luo Junchuan closed his eyes, waiting for Gong Chenliang's verdict.
