If I fail to overcome the tribulation, I can only return to the Ming Dynasty and become a prince.

Chapter 308 The young official in green robe
The eight hundred and nine state guards dispersed and quickly drove away the people who gathered around the palace. However, many people still climbed up to the surrounding houses without giving up, lying on the roofs and looking at the floating cloud mountains above the palace. , eyes full of enthusiasm and envy.

That is a fairy mountain!Even if it is just a piece of grass or a stone, it is also a fairy grass and a spiritual stone!
If you can get a piece of fairy grass or a piece of spiritual stone, you will be considered to be destined to be an immortal. You will definitely live a long life in the future, and even become an immortal!
For ordinary people, their thoughts are very simple and simple. They don't think so much. They only see the fairy mountains in the sky and the immortals in the fairy mountains. In addition, the immortals may be demons pretending to be demons. , they don’t think about it.

It's just that the people don't think about it, but Zheng Fan's officials have to think about it.

Not only do they have to consider this possibility, they are also planning to send people to the Fairy Mountain to investigate.

Although Fuyun Mountain is floating in the sky, its height is not very high. It looks like it can be climbed up by building a tall ladder with great effort.

But it is obvious that Fuyun Mountain cannot be climbed up with a ladder, even in the world of immortality.

Therefore, even though sergeants have been mobilized, Zheng Fan's officials still have not figured out a way to climb Fuyun Mountain.

"Aren't everyone usually very eloquent? Why are you mute now? With so many people, no one can come up with a solution?" Zuo Changshi looked at the military officers and civilian officials gathered in front of him without saying a word, and he was suddenly dissatisfied. He scolded.

No wonder Zuo Changshi was angry. From the time he summoned his troops and subordinates when he appeared at Fuyun Mountain at noon, until now when the sun has turned westward, no one among the civil and military officials gathered here has made any useful suggestions or figured out how to solve this matter. way of doing things.

But strictly speaking, it's not because they have no other options. After all, no one would think about how to get to the sky or climb a mountain floating in the sky.

For these civil and military officials, this kind of thing is really beyond their cognitive scope.

"Chang Shi, why don't we report it to the prince and the princess and ask them to make a decision! It's not a big deal for us to waste so much time!" An official was a little afraid of taking responsibility, so he proposed to report it to Zhu Zhanquan and Zhang. suggestion.

However, Zuo Changshi just rolled his eyes at him and said: "There is no need for you to tell me! The person who reported the message has already gone to the annex, and the prince will have cut off your head when you report the message."

Although Zuo Changshi was not sure whether the prince had secretly cultivated an intelligence organization, the sentinels of Zheng Fan's Jinyi Guards and Qingyu Guards, as well as the Japanese acting officials and interpreters, would all collect all kinds of information and intelligence to Zhu Zhan as soon as possible. In the hands of this prince.

When such a big thing happens, there will be a light horse and a fast horse reporting the news to Zhu Zhanqun immediately.

Even though Zuo Changshi knew that Zhu Zhanqun was traveling with the princess now and would probably not be able to find anyone else for a while, the Zhang family in the annex was the princess who wanted her mother to honor the world in the future. She did such a thing The decision is even more authoritative than Zhu Zhanchun's decision.

After all, she is Zhu Zhanqun's mother. In the Ming Dynasty, where the country was governed by Confucianism, filial piety and obedience to parents were also very important.

It's okay for Mrs. Zhang to leave it alone. If Mrs. Zhang makes a decision, Zhu Zhanquan doesn't have a special reason or an argument that can convince the public. It's really hard to go against Mrs. Zhang's wishes because Mrs. Zhang is his biological mother.

Because of this, Zuo Changshi was not worried that no one would handle the matter and make decisions after the report was reported.

Unfortunately, Zhang Changshi was still in the annex. The two of them, Zhang Changshi, were the two highest-ranking civil servants in Zheng Fan. The two of them discussed and came up with an idea to get things done.

Just making a decision is one thing, but the solution to the problem is another.Zuo Changshi is not ambiguous when it comes to making decisions, implementing them, and even taking responsibility for things that happen afterwards. But the problem is that there is no solution to the problem now, which is a headache.

You must know that you have to come up with a solution to the problem before the leader asks questions, so that you can show that you are capable of doing things, rather than a mediocre and incompetent person who just asks questions and knows where to go.

In particular, this matter has a huge impact. If it can be handled well, it will be a great achievement, but if it is not handled well... then you can refer to the customs of the Japanese and choose someone who can cleanly and neatly intervene.

It's just that this matter is really embarrassing, and the civil and military officials gathered in front of them really don't have any good solutions.

Just when everyone was feeling in trouble, a green-robed official suddenly rode over from a distance on horseback, accompanied by an interpreter. After dismounting, he turned over his hands and said to Zuo Changshi: "Sir, I have a way. Climb the fairy mountain!"

When someone said there was a way, Zuo Changshi was overjoyed and asked quickly: "What is the way? Tell me quickly!"

"My subordinates have measured the distance between the bottom of the Fairy Mountain and the ground. Although it is a hundred feet high, you can shoot an arrow up with a powerful crossbow! As long as you tie a rope to the arrow, you can climb up along the rope!" The green-robed official explained his thoughts, and then expressed regret: "It's a pity that I am just a lowly official and have no right to mobilize the powerful crossbows in the army. I still ask the long history to give the order."

Zuo Changshi pondered for a moment, thinking about whether this was feasible.

The powerful crossbows in the army have an extremely long range. Even if the fairy mountain is a hundred feet high from the ground, it is not a problem to shoot an arrow up it.

In war, this kind of crossbow is not used to shoot people, but to attack cities.

What Zuo Changshi was hesitant about was not the issue of mobilizing crossbows. Zheng Fan still had some reserves of such weapons, and they were arranged on the walls of the palace and could be used at any time.

What really worries Zuo Changshi is who can climb up.

It's a hundred feet high. It doesn't matter whether you have enough strength to climb up. If the rope breaks or the arrow comes loose from the fairy mountain, it will be a big shock if you fall down.

Moreover, the people living on the mountain are probably real immortals. If you want to go up the mountain to meet the immortals, you must first be able to speak eloquently and not offend others.

Once these two conditions are restricted, most candidates will be eliminated.

So who to send up?Zuo Changshi touched the beard on his chin and felt very embarrassed.

However, the young official in green robes in front of him seemed to see the dilemma of Zuo Changshi in front of him, so he took the initiative to say: "I heard that there is a profession in Japan called ninja. If we can't do anything, I asked the interpreter before I came here, and he said that we can hire a very skilled ninja, who must be able to do this task and climb the fairy mountain."

As he spoke, the green-robed official also gestured to the interpreter who came with him.
