The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1157
[1157. Chapter 1106 Morality]
Zhu Youqi returned to his son’s bedroom in a daze, where several imperial doctors were still taking care of him.
Seeing Zhu Houcong breathing evenly made him feel relieved.
His Majesty had already left without saying hello, leaving him a little… speechless.
However, I was too nervous and exhausted today. When I finally calmed down, I felt extremely tired, so I went to sleep.
When I got up early the next morning, I first went to see Zhu Houcong. Because he had been plotted against him, he was inevitably in trouble. He even refused to eat breakfast and only drank a cup of tea. Everyone looked suspicious, as if this person wanted to To harm yourself.
With a look of tea in his mouth, he finally… felt a little more energetic, and suddenly… his expression changed.
It seemed like he remembered something.
Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and shouted: “Ah…have you been tricked by someone?”
He hurried out of Honglu Temple and asked people to look around. He found the Western Mountain and had no time to appreciate it. In the scenery, he finally found Fang Jifan and said: “Qi Guo Gong, Qi Guo Gong… After thinking about it, why do I feel that you are deceiving me?”
Fang Jifan: “…”
Everyone who takes advantage often has a certain Feeling cheated.
In the eyes of salespeople, this is a very unusual situation.
Dealing with this kind of people, Fang Jifan… was quite speechless.
Fang Jifan said: “What is His Royal Highness King Xing saying? Your Highness is a relative of the emperor, and the younger generation is a relative of the country. The emperor is a relative of the country. These are relatives. Will our Fang Jifan lie to his relatives? His Highness’s words are really inspiring. Han Xin, if Your Highness thinks you shouldn’t lie, that’s fine, I’ll return the money to Your Highness… Well, it doesn’t count the down payment, the mansion is not for sale, you can just mortgage it for one million taels of silver.”
Zhu Youqi: ” …”
He was a little confused.
Why don’t you buy a house? Why do you still owe others one million taels of silver?
All of a sudden, he became angry, and the clay figurine also had three points of anger. What kind of robbery was this? He dared to snatch the head of Emperor Chenghua, is there any justice?
Fang Jifan patiently explained: “The junior’s money will naturally be returned in full, but in the contract signed yesterday, Xishan Jianye was sold to His Highness’s mansion, right? This Xishan Jianye, to be honest, the junior is only 20% Half, this can be returned to Your Highness. The other two and a half percent belongs to His Highness, Your Highness… Well, I can always take charge of it for him, and I can just return it to Your Highness. The other two and a half percent is privately raised money. , these damn merchants, what are you afraid of? This junior has made the decision, retreat, all of them will retreat. But… there are still 25%… This is His Majesty’s share, His Highness Prince Xing, so this one million taels of silver, junior. But I dare not make the decision. The only thing I can withdraw is 3 million, and the rest… His Highness also knows the character of His Majesty… I dare to say that he and His Highness King Xing are indeed brothers, and these 18,000 are. Two taels of silver are fine, but this involves millions of taels of silver. Tell me, Your Majesty, Prince Xing, what would happen if His Majesty knew…?”
Zhu Youqian: “…”
Yesterday… he seemed to have heard Fang Jifan say. However, His Majesty did take a stake.
His face was red with embarrassment: “I…I’m going to go find your Majesty.”
Fang Jifan had already grabbed him: “Your Highness Prince Xing, you must not do it. This junior is doing this for your own good. Also, you said you wanted to vacate the mansion. This How can you withdraw from a contract signed in black and white? Is this ridiculous? If everyone is like His Highness Prince Xing, then…will anyone dare to do business in the future? Your Highness must have understood something. This junior is a man of integrity. If you don’t believe me, your Highness can go and find out. Our successor is a fair man, fair in business, and fair in dealing with children. He is also known as ‘Fang Chengxin’.”
Zhu Youqian’s face turned slightly. Toned down a bit.
Fang Jifan sighed again: “As for this house, Your Highness… It is bought at a low price now. In the future… it will definitely increase. If you can trust me, just wait and see. Your Highness, think about it, this is next to Land in the Imperial City, this kind of land, can be sold for less than a dollar. Next, there will be countless clan members coming to the capital. Think about it. Think about it. So many people are coming to grab such a small amount of land. This mansion will not be returned. Do you have to go to the sky? This junior is doing it for your own good, but His Highness doesn’t know the heart of a good person. This… this is really a waste of this junior’s good intentions. This junior is often in Beijing, and I have heard people mention His Highness Prince Xing. Everyone says that His Royal Highness King Xing is a man who keeps his promises. The younger generation admires you very much. You are my elder and I respect my elders. This… ugh…”
Zhu Youqiu blushed.
He is actually an ordinary person. He has never left Anlu City in the first half of his life. Now he feels a little dizzy and ashamed. He also feels that it is really difficult to insist on breaking the contract at this time. He muttered for a while, and finally, He said: “That’s all, that’s all, um… I take my leave.”
Fang Jifan grabbed him and said, “Your Highness is here, why don’t you leave without having a meal?”
Zhu Youqi waved his hands, confused and ashamed: “I’ll go back and see Hou. “Hello.”
He left in a hurry.
Fang Jifan watched Zhu Youqi go away, and his body trembled slightly. Outside, Wang Jinyuan poked his head around and saw Fang Jifan looking triumphant inside, so he coughed: “Master, Master… Is there anything happy for Master?”
Fang Jifan sighed: “It seems, I overestimated the clan members of our Ming Dynasty. I don’t know where His Highness Prince Xing’s IQ ranks among the clan members. But if all the clan members in this dynasty are like him…” Fang Jifan He cheered up and said with bright eyes: “The time to make a fortune… is coming!”
History says that all the clan members of the Ming Dynasty were wimps.
Fang Jifan still didn’t believe it.
Now… Fang Jifan finally understands.
It really is!
These guys are almost all kept in captivity and stay in a small cave all their lives. They rarely interact with outsiders and cannot communicate normally. They have almost no emotional intelligence. They are all pampered and carefree all their lives. They have lived like dogs for half their lives. On their bodies, but unfortunately, they still have countless wealth in their hands. Damn it… this is a cornucopia.
Of course, if Emperor Taizu Gao knew that the clan system he had worked so hard to figure out eventually turned into Fang Jifan’s slaughterhouse, all these big fat pigs raised by Emperor Taizu Gao’s system would now be Waiting to be stabbed, the coffin board must be unable to hold it down.
Fang Jifan believed in science. He didn’t believe there were ghosts in the world, so…he didn’t have to be afraid. Emperor Taizu Gao had a spirit in heaven.
“Has our super mansion been designed?”
“We have gathered people and are brainstorming.”
“That’s good.” Fang Jifan said with a smile: “Hurry up, do the work, friends are here, we have a good house!”
……… …
In the evening, an edict was delivered to Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly took the order and found Fang Jifan.
He danced happily and said: “Father, it’s accurate, it’s accurate!”
“What’s accurate? What’s the tone?” When Fang Jifan heard the word ‘play’, he always felt very shabby and was shocked.
Zhu Houzhao slapped the order on the document: “Old Fang, Old Fang, you have such a bad memory, no wonder you always realize it later, haha, you actually forgot, not long ago, you told me , We must be careful to prevent someone from causing trouble. Just
in case, we need to train a group of sergeants in case of unexpected events?” Zhu Houzhao paused: “This is what I am reporting. What I am saying is that most of the current armies are not useful, especially To counter a rebellion, we need to be able to cover our ears with lightning speed. Otherwise, once a rebellion occurs, the court can remain calm and surrounded on all sides. However, if the war drags on for too long, it will inevitably harm the people. Therefore, I affirm my father and prepare an army to deal with it. Be fully prepared for rebellion.”
When Zhu Houzhao said this, he couldn’t help but sigh: “I originally thought that my father would ignore it after reading the memorial. I once thought that the order was issued soon, saying that the defense of the East Palace was insufficient, and the East Palace Guards were added to protect the safety of the palace. And who is the commander of this guard?”
Fang Jifan thought for a while: “Could it be? Me?”
Zhu Houzhao laughed: “Yes, yes, it is you. Your Majesty ordered you to recruit a bodyguard to protect me. Haha, this is a big joke. I still need you, Fang Jifan, to protect me. Of course, I am. The palace knows what my father means. You are only a nominal commander. The father knows that I am good at using troops. Therefore, I am personally in charge of this guard. You… you have to bear the grievance and be the commander of the palace. The deputy of the East Palace Guard… Hmm… the name is not nice, I want to give them a name, Wuweiwei, how about? “
Wudi…
is very domineering.
But it’s too domineering and lacks the humanistic spirit.
Fang Jifan thought for a while: “Invincibility is not good, it is better to call it loneliness. There is a saying that when you run fast, loneliness cannot catch up with you.”
Zhu Houzhao: “…”
Zhu Houzhao grinned: “Are you here to cause trouble? Fang
Jifan said cheerfully: “Why don’t we compromise and call them Zhengde Guards? Only by correcting one’s mind can one cultivate one’s virtue. I feel that morality is something we all seek. If a person has no virtue, the laws of nature will not tolerate it.” His
Highness the Crown Prince and his ministers are moral models who should be imitated and learned by the people of the world, and run the army with the word “righteousness”. This is the moral appeal of his highness and his ministers from the heart…”
Zhu Houzhao held his chin, Lonely Guard made him sick, but now he actually thinks that Zhengde Guard sounds very good.
So he raised his eyebrows: “Then, that’s it, it’s the Zhengde Guard. Haha, I’m going to show off my skills.”
“Wait a minute.” Fang Jifan’s face changed, he picked up the imperial order, and said seriously: “The imperial order It is clear that the minister is in command and has arbitrary control over this matter. What does this Zhengde Guard have to do with His Majesty? This is a sacred order. I act according to the order, so I don’t bother His Majesty to tell you what to do. Okay, Your Majesty, please come back. Remember to take it with you. Come to the door.”
Zhu Houzhao: “…”
