Liu Jian was still dizzy when he sat in the pay room.

Looking back on these days, I used to be considered as having no fear of honor and disgrace. After all, I have been an official for many years and have been practicing calmness and steadiness. Although I have troublesome things, it is difficult to have a time to disturb my heart.

What is circulated outside is that Liu Jian is fond of decisiveness, Li Dongyang is good at planning, and Xie Qian is good at eloquence.

As the chief minister of the cabinet, if you want to have good judgment, you must be absolutely rational and calm.

But... I've been in a mess recently.

It's a mess.

As the saying goes, care is confusing. Sure enough, I still have weaknesses.

After a sigh, thinking that the Liu family has no worries since then and that his son has made such contributions, even if His Majesty is awarded the title of Earl, the whole world will never be able to find a mistake.

Li Long is now like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats him, and his son takes him, which is enough to convince the public.

When footsteps came from outside, Liu Jian knew that Fang Jifan had arrived.

Before Fang Jifan could come in, Liu Jian smiled. As soon as Fang Jifan came in, Liu Jian stood up and said with a smile: "Jifan, you are here, come, sit down and have tea first."

Fang Jifan was not polite and sat down directly. The tea had already been prepared. It was warm and he took a sip and felt relieved.

In fact... Fang Jifan has always been worried about Liu Gong's suppression. He is his son's master, so why can't he call him Xiao Liu?

"Mr. Liu..." Fang Jifan laughed, knowing that he was a little weak.

Liu Jian also smiled at him, and there was a unique feeling in his smile.

Fang Jifan smiled even brighter: "It's so gratifying that Liu Jie made such a contribution. I wonder when Liu Gong will make wine?"

Liu Jian stroked his beard and said lightly: "Famous, fame, wealth and wealth are just clouds around the sky. You don't have to pay too much attention. It's too ostentatious to make wine. But my son can become a talent, which is a gratitude. Speaking of this, my son thanks to Jifan's teachings. This is a great kindness. When he comes back, he will definitely ask him to thank him personally. I have always taught him that when he is a human being, he must know how to repay kindness. He is a good child and a very honest person..."

Fang Jifan empathized with this: "Yes, Liu Jie is such a good boy."

"..." Liu Jian always felt that Fang Jifan called Liu Jie a child, and he coughed: "Jifan, what's going on in the future? Can you discuss me? You also know that I have always valued you very much. Among the nobles, most of the other children are not in my eyes, but you... are unique."

What's more...it sounds familiar?

Fang Jifan seemed to have heard of it somewhere, and this familiar feeling was very friendly.

Fang Jifan was happy: "Yes, yes, I will be blessed to be favored by Liu Gong in my three lives."

Liu Jian actually heard a hint of irony from these words.

He was a little scared of Fang Jifan: "Well, come to your house to sit there when you have time, don't be polite."

"Okay, OK, I must come often."

"Well..." In fact, Liu Jian still felt a little uneasy in his heart. He couldn't figure out where Liu Jie would be sent to die next. Thinking of this, he was chilling!

He admitted that Fang Jifan was indeed unique in his eyes, but there were times when horses were stumbled.

For the safety of his son, he is the only father...

So he gritted his teeth and said, "I am not bad to your Fang family. Usually, many censors impeach you, but I am suppressing you here. You can say the right thing and you will not do such a matter of killing first and then reporting in the future."

Fang Jifan quickly shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not, use the reputation that our Fang Jifan has accumulated over the years."

Liu Jian's eyes were infuriated, and these words were insincere enough.

"I don't dare to believe it."

Fang Jifan was a little speechless. It seemed that Liu Gong had a misunderstanding about him. Seeing Liu Jian staring at him coldly, he seemed to have the intention of killing someone to silence him, Fang Jifan had no choice but to say, "If Fang Jifan dares to kill first and then report, it will be thunderous!"

But it was just so just so magical. At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound, the earth trembled, and the doors and windows clattered.

Liu Jian's face changed.

God... Is it struck by lightning?

What happened?

The tea in Fang Jifan's hand actually left his hand and landed on the ground.

The earth... the earth collapsed?

In the flash of lightning, Fang Jifan had an idea.

It must have collapsed.

Fang Jifan was confused, and suddenly he remembered something. In the first month of Gengxu, the land of Lingqiu County in Datong collapsed on the first month of the 14th year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty. The land of Lingqiu County in Datong was shaking, and the sound was like thunder. Chaoyi County was particularly serious. From that day to the 17th, it shook frequently and rolled down the city walls and towers. More than 15,400 rooms were damaged, more than 900 men and women were crushed to death, and many people died of head animals...

Lingqiu County collapsed.

Fang Jifan actually didn't have much memory of this historical fact in the early days. He just read it from the county annals of Lingqiu County in his previous life. It is hard to have a deep impression, because compared with the earth's collapse, drought, flood, locust plague in the Ming Dynasty, and disasters that directly lead to "people feeding", there are countless disasters. This is a dynasty with many disasters and has never been safe in one day.

Clang, outside, a newly installed glass window was shaken and directly shattered.

Listening to the sound of the shattering of the glass, Fang Jifan's face looked very bad...

Even the capital was trembling. It is conceivable that Lingqiu County, which is 400 miles away, has suffered such a tragic situation now.

In addition, there may be a large wave of aftershocks next. The damage of the aftershock may be even more terrifying. It is said that the river directly breaks the dam and drowns countless fertile fields and people and animals.

Not only that, after the natural disaster, it was a man-made disaster. Because the disaster was urgent, the court could not handle it in time, and the food prices began to surge... What happened later can be described as terrible.

Liu Jian's face became cold: "I have something to do, Xin Jian Bo, please come back."

Fang Jifan also said with a tense face: "It seems to be coming from the West..."

Liu Jian ignored him and the land collapsed, and no matter where it collapsed, as the chief minister of the cabinet, he must immediately convene people to discuss matters. In addition, he also needs to investigate the monitoring of the seismometer.

In short, he had no other intentions now and directly issued an order to expel guests.

Fang Jifan couldn't help but feel a little regretful. In the county annals at that time, the records of the land collapse were indeed vague. Moreover, because there were too many disasters, he had no way to remember it. He didn't expect that... The land collapse was so sudden that it happened next to him.

So Fang Jifan hurried out of the Meridian Gate with a heavy mood!

And outside the Meridian Gate, Zhu Houzhao was still there.

He seemed to feel the aftermath underground, and his face was as scared as if he was earthy. The ancients had always had instinctive fear of such "the sky collapsed and the earth broke".

Originally, he was waiting for Fang Jifan here and wanted to discuss the matter of Duke Zhenguo. It was so happy that he waited around and waited, but he didn't wait for Fang Jifan to come. He was still complaining in his heart that it would take so long to see a medical treatment. It would be that he had any evil intentions towards his sister.

Unexpectedly, the earth suddenly trembled and he almost shook. Liu Jin beside him was shocked. The eunuch was most afraid of such a thing. He was timid and hurriedly pulled Zhu Houzhao: "Your Highness, run away quickly, run away quickly, the ground collapsed."

Zhu Houzhao did not escape. Looking at the Meridian Gate Tower, she couldn't help but beat her chest and fall: "Father, mother, grandmother, girl, and Fang Jifan are all inside..."

When the wave collapsed, everything returned to peace. Zhu Houzhao was about to rush in and see if something happened.

At this time, Fang Jifan just came out.

As soon as Zhu Houzhao saw Fang Jifan, she said anxiously: "Lao Fang, are you okay? Are you okay in the palace?"

"This is just the aftermath of the collapse of the ground, and there will be no problem." Fang Jifan said: "What else is Your Highness doing here?"

"I... I'm thinking about the Duke of Zhenguo. Since I have become Duke of Zhenguo, then we should build Duke of Zhenguo in Xishan. In the eyes of others, we are legitimate, it doesn't matter, but we ourselves..."

Duke Zhenguo... Duke Zhenguo...

Town of the country...

The word "Tianguo" pierced Fang Jifan's heart in a flash...

Fang Jifan suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Your Highness, you remind me well. He was born to me in this world to suppress evil spirits!"

"Suppress...Suppress evil? What, what does it mean..." Zhu Houzhao was still frightened and looked miserable. He was a little scared. He was not afraid of anything else, but he was in awe of such unknown things.

Fang Jifan looked at Liu Jin and said, "Liu Jin, go to the Hanlin Academy to recall all my students on duty and tell them that if you can't get to the West Mountain within an hour, I will think that there are no five students!"

"What are you going to the West Mountain?" Zhu Houzhao pulled Fang Jifan, looking puzzled.

Fang Jifan said solemnly: "This land collapse came from the west. Something must have happened in the west. The sky collapsed and the earth cracked, countless people and animals were killed and injured, the roads were cut off everywhere, and the rivers were poured backwards. I had to go to save people. There was a hell on earth..."

Zhu Houzhao's teeth trembled. In the capital, he was like a frightened bird. He would rather he faced more than a dozen Tatars, but he was instinctively afraid of this unknown collapse.

So he said with a pale face: "You...you are crazy. Who knows if there will be earthquakes on the contrary? Don't run around."

Fang Jifan laughed disapprovingly and said, "We Fang Jifan has done so many good things. We are a virtuous person. The so-called virtuous person will be protected by God. If a mere land collapses, what can I do to me? Even if God wants to shake, he should shake those despicable villains to death. Liu Jin is alive, what am I afraid of?"

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind, to save people.

If he was a person from this era, he might not know how to save him, but after all, he was a human being in two lives. If he remembered correctly in the previous life, if the sky collapsed and the earth broke, he would have to save him. Even if... it was really dangerous, Fang Jifan would admit it.

After all... he is really a good person.

However, Liu Jin looked at Fang Jifan with resentment, stammering his mouth and hunching his body, but did not dare to make a sound.
