The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1146

[1146. Chapter 1095 is awesome, Fang Jifan!]

Fang Jifan felt a little guilty.

What a mess.

If I had known that the two Zhang brothers were so audacious for money, how could I be so eager to hint this to them?

Perhaps because of his guilty conscience, Fang Jifan immediately said: “Ah…Your Majesty…the two uncles are really too bold. My son suggested that the only way to solve this matter is to take them to prison immediately and Guo Duo.” Their titles serve as a warning to others. Only in this way can the hearts of the kings be reassured.”

Emperor Hongzhi: “…”

This guy… seems to be retaliating.

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand: “You go down first, I will discuss it with Liu Qing’s family and others.”

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan hurriedly resigned.

When the two of them left the palace, Zhu Houzhao frowned: “Father is still too kind and soft-hearted. If you want to cut down the vassal vassal, then do it. What’s wrong with calling the clan members to the capital? I heard that those vassal kings can live a happy life in the local area. Very, much stronger than me. “

To a certain extent, yes.

Thanks to the great blessing of Emperor Taizu Gao, each of these vassal kings has a large number of fiefs, countless farmhouses, and their own special guards. Under normal circumstances, as long as they don’t do anything excessive, no one dares to provoke them. them.

Zhu Houzhao gritted his teeth and said: “Could it be that they dare to rebel after calling them to the capital? It’s okay if they

rebel, I will kill them myself.” Fang Jifan couldn’t help but said: “His Royal Highness is really brave, but… this… …This… Actually, has His Highness the Crown Prince ever thought about summoning the vassal king to the capital? The real resistance is not only the vassal king, but also the officials. The officials do not want the clan members to come to the capital.”

Zhu Houzhao frowned. I don’t know what to say.

Fang Jifan sighed: “Next, if your majesty wants to appease the clan, he must question Shouning Hou and Jian Changbo. These two guys don’t have the slightest sense of loyalty. I’m really worried that they will make baseless accusations.

At this point, Fang Jifan sighed again: “Actually… I don’t want to do this, but… if they insist on forcing me, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“What?

“

Zhu Houzhao looked sideways at the murderous Fang Jifan.

“If we don’t deal with these dog officials, the clan’s entry into the capital will not be possible.”

………

“Wang Jinyuan, Wang Jinyuan!”

He quickly returned to Zhenguo Mansion.

Fang Jifan had a murderous look on his face. Wang Jinyuan was so frightened that he stepped forward. Just as he was about to bow down, Fang Jifan kicked him over.

“Ouch.” Wang Jinyuan turned over subconsciously.

Although he has a lot of old bones, his body is actually very strong. It is obvious that he has practiced.

He turned over quickly. At this moment, he knew that something big was going to happen, and the young master was in a bad mood.

Wang Jinyuan was happy instead.

A warm current rippled in my heart.

Something serious has happened and he is in a bad mood. When the young master comes back, the first person he looks for is himself. What does this mean?

It shows that in the young master’s heart, he is the confidant among his confidants.

Young Master, you are worthy of being a young master. Although you look at the evil spirit, your heart is like a clear mirror. You know that I, Wang Jinyuan, am the most loyal.

Wang Jinyuan said: “What are the young master’s orders?”

“Tomorrow!” Fang Jifan said firmly: “I have treasured the young master for a year and still keep the large piece of land on Luoyang Road that I have passed on to my descendants, and push it out.”

“Oh.” Wang Jinyuan said with a smile: “How many acres are you going to push away, Master?”

Fang Jifan bared his teeth: “Push them all out.”

“Yeah.” Wang Jinyuan was stunned: “Master, that’s 20,000 to 30,000 acres? All… push out?”

Fang Jifan waved his sleeves: “That’s right, there’s not even an acre left. How much is there, how much is sold, I have plenty of land.”

“…”

Wang Jinyuan was silent for a long time: “Master, this… is this a deal breaker?”

Fang Jifan said: ” That’s right, just smash the plate, flip the table, and stop playing to see who dies first! “

The young master is crazy.

Must be crazy.

Wang Jinyuan really wanted to make a visit to Wei Zheng and give him some advice.

It can be seen that Fang Jifan’s face was horrified. He wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back.

He… was confused…

Fang Jifan kicked him in the butt: “You’re deaf, get out of here!”

“Obviously… understand…” Wang Jinyuan said: “You villain, get out of here!”

Fang Jifan’s face was still filled with murderous intent. .

Seeing Wang Jinyuan’s stumbling figure, Fang Jifan couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

In fact… a person as kind-hearted and polite as he is, really doesn’t want to treat others like this.

But…why are people so mean? Why do I get strange looks from others every time I treat others gently and politely?

This world is really crazy.

Okay, since some people don’t want me to be a good person, then our successor, I will let you see what our successor will become if he becomes evil.

………

Prince Xing of Anlu… has arrived in Beijing. This brother of Emperor Hongzhi lived in Honglu Temple.

The Honglu Temple in Xincheng has dense mansions, but the accommodation is quite comfortable.

This Xingwang Zhu Youqi was originally happy to come to visit his relatives.

Hearing that His Majesty the Emperor specially summoned him to Beijing, he felt quite proud.

After all, they are blood brothers. Unlike other royal relatives, he has the closest relationship with the emperor among the clan members. The emperor misses him. Something pleasant will happen to him when he comes to Beijing this time.

Zhu Youqi believed in Taoism, and he made a divination when he came. The hexagrams made him even more happy. Zhu Youqi was even more elated. He thought that his brother would definitely receive a generous gift this time. He was indeed his brother. His Majesty was still very happy. Conscientious.

But as soon as he arrived in Tongzhou, a piece of bad news came.

Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, two beasts, actually asked the emperor to summon all the clan members to settle in Beijing.

Zhu Youqi took a mouthful of old blood and wanted to spurt it out.

No one in the world knows who the Zhang brothers are. Why are they suddenly discussing politics? Isn’t it obvious? Someone must be instigating them behind the scenes.

Who has this motive to instigate the Zhang brothers? It’s this imperial brother.

Who has the ability to drive the Zhang brothers? Isn’t this still the emperor?

Your Majesty… I’m borrowing the Zhang brothers to test the water temperature. Could it be that… when I come to Beijing this time… I don’t want to go back to the vassal territory?

No matter how good the capital is, there is no one in ten thousand in the vassal land. In the vassal land, he is the local emperor, with countless guards, no one can restrain him from doing whatever he wants.

But when I arrived in the capital, I was like a bug. I was under His Majesty’s nose every day. Whenever there was any disturbance, countless pairs of eyes were watching. It was even more impossible for the guards to take him with me. Everything was in the way…

It was over.

Zhu Youtiao didn’t sleep well for several nights. His friend Chen Zhao was a judge because Zhu Youtiao admired him and invited him to be his guest.

Chen Zhao also became worried about the prince. Once the prince was trapped in the capital, wouldn’t he be like a dragon swimming in shallow water?

Therefore, as soon as they arrived in the capital, Chen Zhao and other secret comrades began to work for Zhu Youqi, visiting relatives and friends in the capital in order to activate their relations and find out the movements of the officials.

During the day, Zhu Youqi entered the palace and was immediately treated warmly and kindly by the emperor’s brother. The emperor’s brother held Zhu Youqi’s hand with a look of emotion and almost cried.

Although Zhu Youzhen felt uneasy, he couldn’t help crying when he looked at his brother.

After all, they are still brothers.

Zhu Youqi stayed in the palace for two hours, and then returned to Honglu Temple with red eyes.

Chen Zhao was already waiting for Zhu Youqian.

“Your Majesty, I’ve found out clearly.”

Zhu Youzhao said with a cold face: “What?”

“I heard that the person who instigated Shouning Hou is very likely… and the captain Fang Jifan.”

“Huh?” Zhu Youzhao slapped the case hard. He started: “What a great Fang Jifan, a late-born descendant. He is so bold. He actually dares… How dare he… Ahem…”

Zhu Youqian coughed desperately.

Chen Zhao looked at Zhu Youqi worriedly: “Your Highness…”

Zhu Youqi shook his hand: “How dare he alienate the brothers of the Tian family!”

Chen Zhao smiled slightly and said: “Fortunately… the student has inquired about a good news about this matter. , the officials did not know about it in advance, so… the students thought that this might be just a test, His Majesty was hesitant, and Fang Jifan and Zhang Heling brothers, their relatives, wanted to take this opportunity to claim credit for this in front of His Majesty. , was very silent, and Xie Gong and Li Gong did not agree with this. As for the ministers and ministers of various ministries, most of them shook their heads, and the officials… were deeply afraid of calling the clan to Beijing.”

Zhu You raised his eyebrows. : “Really? I thought that there was a tacit understanding between the court and the government, but it turns out… it was just a test.”

Zhu Youqian then sighed: “It seems… things are not irreversible yet. Huh, what about the Zhang family? Brothers, and that Fang Jifan… Since all the officials don’t agree, then… I have to be polite. If the clan doesn’t express its attitude, I’m afraid some people will think that this king is weak and can be bullied. In this case, in the future… Your Majesty. We are going to hold a court meeting, and when the time comes, I will go there… I must explain it clearly in front of His Majesty…”

Chen Zhao frowned: “Your Majesty means…”

Zhu Youqi held his pearls of wisdom: “I can tell, Your Majesty. I still care about the brotherhood. Nine times out of ten, it is just a mistake and deceived by the villain. Therefore, when I come to the Holy Master, I will cry and severely impeach the Duke of Qi, Shouning Hou and others. If it is a hundred officials , really did not stand on their side and speak for the king one after another. When that happens, will your majesty still be able to protect these relatives? This precedent must not be started. Once it is started, summoning the clan to the capital will happen again in the future. Some people are discussing, even if your Majesty does not allow it today, what about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? I am very worried.”

“The only way is to make a show of force. At that time, the clan and the officials will explode to let the emperor know. His determination was to punish Fang Jifan and Zhang Heling. From then on, no one dared to mention it again. This is called setting an example!”

Chen Zhao smiled brightly: “Your Majesty is really wise.”

Zhu Youzhao smiled slightly: “Go. Make preparations and communicate with some censors in advance. The day after tomorrow…” Zhu Youqian clenched his fists: “Let these relatives know that this Ming Dynasty’s surname is Zhu!”

…

and.
