Emperor Chongzhen was determined to be the first batch of students in the Department of Agriculture. Lin Fan was filled with unspeakable emotions and felt that a big stone had finally fallen from his heart.
"Father, I will handle this matter as soon as possible. You will no longer have such a leisurely life in the future. You must go to school on time every day to set an example for the people of the Ming Dynasty."
Lin Fan said with a smile.
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but reveal a wry smile on his face. He smiled wryly and said, "Fan'er! Is it too late for my father to regret it now?"
"Father, I'm afraid it's too late!"
Lin Fan said with a smile.
Wang Chengen, who was standing aside, felt indescribably happy when he saw such a scene of a loving father and a filial son. At the same time, he was also curious, is this agricultural department really that important?
After leaving the palace, Lin Fan changed into ordinary civilian clothes and wandered around the streets of the capital. He came to the university district, which was originally a deserted place, but now it was very prosperous.
Because these universities have begun to recruit students, although the number of students enrolled in a university is only one or two thousand, in ancient times, it was already very scary.
In ancient times, the most prosperous streets had only a few thousand people per day, which was far inferior to the prosperous places of later generations, where hundreds of thousands or millions of people could pass by in a day!
"Let's go! Where did you little girl come from? How can you be so ignorant of etiquette?
This is the School of Engineering, is this where you should come?"
Lin Fan was walking when he heard a scolding.
He immediately looked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw several middle-aged men, who were pushing a little girl away. These middle-aged men were from the School of Engineering.
"You! You are the rude people. This engineering college is a place to study. I am here to study. Why are you turning me away?"
The little girl was not convinced and said angrily.
"Haha! You're a little girl, you're not tall and you have quite a bad temper. If you come to study, can you get into this engineering college?
Is it true that if a person comes to study, we will accept him?"
"If that's the case, this engineering school would have been crowded with people a long time ago. Little girl, I advise you to leave quickly. If you continue to stay here, no one will accept you!"
One person said with a smile.
"Alas! This little girl looks only eleven or twelve years old, but she has a very stubborn character. It's a pity that if she were my daughter, I would definitely find a way to let her enter the engineering college."
One person said with some regret.
"Hmph! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that anyone who studies humbly will have the opportunity to enter various universities. Why don't you give me this opportunity?"
"If you feel that I am not qualified enough, you can put me to the test. You can drive me away directly. I will go to His Highness the Crown Prince to sue you!"
The little girl pouted and said, then got up and left.
When the group of people saw the little girl leaving angrily, they were not angry. Instead, they laughed.
"Haha! This little girl's temper is really stubborn. Lao Zhang, why don't you catch up and take a look? What if something happens to this little girl?"
One person laughed.
"That's right. Although our engineering school can't accept her, it's not safe for this little girl to be left alone!"
The man called Lao Zhang hurriedly chased after the little girl.
At this time, Lin Fan waved at him, signaling him not to chase him. The man was stunned for a moment, but after seeing Lin Fan's appearance clearly, he immediately bowed respectfully.
The others also saluted, and Lin Fan asked them to do their own thing, and then chased after the little girl. At this time, the little girl had almost reached the prince's residence.
"Haha! Little girl, you are so angry, where are you going?"
Lin Fan caught up and asked with a smile.
When the little girl saw Lin Fan, she ignored her and tried to move forward, but Lin Fan stopped her. He really allowed this little girl to break into the Prince's Mansion without being captured by the guards as assassins.
"Little girl, are you so rude?
The adults are talking to you, but you actually ignore them?"
Lin Fan asked.
The little girl was grabbed by Lin Fan's arm and struggled hard for a few times. When she couldn't move, she shouted: "Here comes someone! Help, this person is a personal trafficker!"
"Help! I'm going to be captured by human traffickers!"
Forehead……
Lin Fan was speechless. This little girl was really noisy. He said in a deep voice: "Little girl, if you want to study in an engineering college, you'd better shut up. Otherwise, no one can help you."
kindness?
After Lin Fan said that, the little girl shut up. When the people around saw that the little girl stopped shouting, they thought it was a conflict between her sister and her brother, so they left directly.
"You! Can you really help me get into engineering school?"
the little girl asked.
"Tell me first, what is your name?"
Lin Fan asked.
"My name is Li Nianru."
The little girl said seriously.
"Li Nianru, that's a good name. Then tell me why you want to enter the engineering college and why you are alone. Where are your parents?"
Lin Fan asked.
Li Nianru's face suddenly wrinkled when she heard Lin Fan ask her these questions.
Gululu!
At this time, the little girl's stomach began to growl. Lin Fan smiled slightly and said, "It seems that there are times when your little girl's stomach can't hold it!"
"Haha! Come with me, I'll treat you to some noodles!"
Lin Fan took Li Nianru to a nearby noodle shop and ordered her a bowl of noodles. Only then did he realize that Li Nianru had an unusually big appetite.
She finished one bowl of noodles in a few seconds, and then two larger bowls. Lin Fan asked her to eat slowly. Li Nianru finished five bowls of noodles before she stopped, patted her round belly, and showed a satisfied look on her face.
look.
"You! Hiccup! You're not a bad person."
Li Nianru said while burping.
Lin Fan couldn't help but give her a big roll of his eyes. After doing this for a long time, this little girl always thought of herself as a bad person!
"Now that you know I'm not a bad person, can you tell me your origins?"
Lin Fan asked.
"I am not from the capital. I grew up with my uncle without a father or a mother. I want to go to school, but my uncle refuses!"
"Some time ago, my uncle wanted to betroth me to someone else, but I didn't want to, so I ran away from the marriage and fled all the way to the capital. I heard that in the school opened by His Royal Highness, anyone with an open mind can enter the school!"
"I like what His Royal Highness the Prince said very much, knowledge can change destiny, and I want to change my own destiny!"
Li Nianru said with a smile.
"Um... So you want to enter the engineering school just because you want to change your destiny?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Of course not, I am also a person with dreams. Isn't the School of Engineering studying steam engines? I think there is room for improvement in this steam engine!"
