The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1306
[1306. Chapter 1242 Long live]
Emperor Hongzhi was in a very good mood.
Although he made a fortune in silence, under such a good mood, Emperor Hongzhi was inevitably a little complacent.
The next day, Fang Jifan was summoned to the palace, along with the prince and cabinet scholars.
Emperor Hongzhi sat behind the papers and looked at his son, son-in-law, and his ministers. He couldn’t help but sigh: “Over the past few years, the country has been difficult, with internal and external troubles. Only this year has it achieved some improvement.” A sign of ZTE.” He first looked at Liu Jian: “Liu Qing’s house, is there another flood in the Huaihe River?”
“Yes, Your Majesty, the heavy rain in the Huaihe River has caused disaster, and the water has overflowed the river banks and flooded three counties.”
Emperor Hongzhi sighed with emotion: “Let’s provide urgent relief. There must be no omissions. Thousands of people are still in dire straits. How can I and the court abandon it?”
“Your Majesty is absolutely right.” Liu Jian nodded. Nodding: “I have sent a note to the Ministry of Household Affairs to send a batch of money and food urgently to alleviate the disaster. After that, we will allocate large-scale money and food so that the victims can have a good year.”
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: ” Please come up with another hundred thousand taels of silver from your internal funds, and provide relief together. This is an extraordinary period, and if you can reduce casualties, you will be relieved.”
After hearing this, Liu Jian felt relieved.
The treasury is indeed very nervous. There are too many things to solve. Now His Majesty actually takes the initiative to withdraw 100,000 taels from the internal funds. This… it is really the sun rising in the west. In the past, ministers would cry, make trouble, and hang themselves to get some out. Come the money.
Emperor Hongzhi then looked at Fang Jifan: “Jifan, Zhengqing, he will be ten years old soon. In a few days, he will grow up. As a grandfather, I feel very sorry for this child. From now on, don’t beat or scold him frequently.”
Fang Jifan looked at Emperor Hongzhi and then at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao’s face turned red.
Emperor Hongzhi glared at Fang Jifan: “What are you looking at? What’s your intention?”
“No.” Fang Jifan shook his head and denied, “I never thought too much about it.”
Emperor Hongzhi coughed and said, “In the future, this child will grow up. He wants to get a wife and have children. I see, in the future, he will be independent. I have thought about it. I will give him a mansion, right next to the East Palace in the new city. No matter how much land is occupied, it will be twenty or thirty acres. In the future, When he grows up, it will be easier to enter and leave the palace.”
“Yeah.” Fang Jifan looked at Emperor Hongzhi in surprise.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: “Don’t refuse, this is my wish for my grandson. When the mansion is completed, he will be able to join the family. By then, I will have his own appointment. Don’t be stingy with your children. .”
Fang Jifan said in his heart, “If you don’t refuse, I won’t refuse.”
He said in his mouth: “Your Majesty’s great kindness is so great that I will remember it in my heart. Your Majesty’s good intentions for Zhengqing. If Zhengqing knew about it, I don’t know how happy he would be.”
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: “I treat my descendants equally, and so does Zhengqing. My flesh and blood.”
Fang Jifan was surprised that His Majesty was so generous.
For all the hard work I have done in the past ten years, the total amount of money that I might be given is not enough for a few acres of land. Good guy, I am so lucky today that I have been given twenty or thirty acres of land, which is still near the New East Palace.
Emperor Hongzhi sat down and said with emotion: “Money, after all, is something external to one’s body, but…this internal money must be spent in the right place after all. If it is used in the right way, it will benefit the country and the people, and be kind to the descendants. If it is used in the wrong way, this will This is
very
inappropriate. I know that you always think that I am frugal, but I am the emperor, so why should I not be frugal? Prince, tell me, am I right? He
said: “Father is so right.”
Although he said this, he looked sick and couldn’t cheer up.
You didn’t reward me with any money, so why are you asking me to brag?
Emperor Hongzhi said: “But the money that should be spent must be spent. As long as it can be put into practice, I will not be stingy with money and silk.”
Fang Jifan immediately said: “What your Majesty said is very true. Your Majesty’s frugality is only for yourself and the people around you. But he has always been generous. This is the great virtue mentioned by the sage, which is not comparable to ordinary people. From now on, I will learn from your majesty and become a person who can benefit the common people and be frugal and self-sufficient towards myself.”
Liu Jian .
When they looked at each other, His Majesty was willing to pay for it, so of course everything he said was right.
Everyone happily said: “Your Majesty is a wise man who has never been seen before.”
Emperor Hongzhi’s face turned red with excitement. The feeling of spending money was actually quite good. He looked down upon the money spent by people like Wang Bushi. Law… is too tacky.

The Royal Palace of Madrid.
Wang Xizuo was driven into the huge Wang family manor in a carriage.
The attendants wearing swords gathered around him and entered a waiting room behind the side door of the palace.
And in the bedroom of the palace.
At this time, King Ferdinand II of Spain was being gently opened by a barber. The barber skillfully cut a small slit on Ferdinand II’s wrist with a razor, and then opened it with ease. He took out the tool box he carried with him, took out a small Mitsubishi drill, and inserted it into the wound to expand it.
Bo Bo’s blood flowed out from His Highness the King’s body.
The priests and royal attendants on the side all showed expressions of relief.
Ferdinand II was in good health, but bloodletting was extremely fashionable in this era. Ferdinand II was currently holding a salon party in the palace.
In this salon, high-ranking officials and celebrities gathered here, as well as teachers and members of the Wang family.
After Ferdinand II released one hundred milliliters of blood, he seemed a little tired, but… in this trance, he seemed to hear a hymn in his ears.
This feeling is really great.
His Royal Highness the King smiled.
As a result, other high-ranking officials and celebrities came up one after another. The royal barbers shuttled among the dignitaries and took out their tools.
Everyone talked to each other while bleeding.
The air was filled with the smell of blood.
Fortunately, these excellent barbers can always fulfill their duties and control the amount of bloodletting at a very precise level.
Bloodletting makes people healthy.
“Your Highness…” A servant pushed open the door and took off his triangular felt hat: “That person is already here.”
At this time, His Royal Highness the King seemed very excited: “Quickly, call him in.”
Immediately afterwards, the King Once inside, he sat down.
The happy His Royal Highness the King said: “Let this gentleman get rid of the devil in his body. He came from the far east, where there are many pagans. He must be contaminated with a lot of bad things.”
After hearing this, the royal barber stood up. .
Everyone looked at Wang Xizuo with envy. This boy, who was originally penniless, now had the honor of being personally bloodletted by His Royal Highness the King’s personal barber.
Wang Xizuo: “”
Wang Xizuo was held down and sat down.
The royal personal barber lifted his arm. He was familiar with Wang Xizuo’s veins and stabbed him.
Wang Xizuo: “…”
It hurts.
Then, the barber took out his Mitsubishi bayonet and drilled it into his wound. Then, the small bayonet began to rotate continuously, expanding the wound.
Wang Xizuo: “…”
Wang Xizuo’s face turned pale and he bit his lip, like a girl who was about to lose her virginity.
It hurts terribly.
The king looked at Wang Xizuo: “Look, his blood is darker than ours. This shows that there are more diseases hidden in his body.”
Everyone leaned over, and the ladies present covered their faces with fans. mouth, and deliberately let out an exaggerated scream.
The priest bowed, saluted His Royal Highness, and said with a smile: “Your Highness is really knowledgeable.”
His Royal Highness smiled.
He is one of the most powerful men in Europe.
Of course, he is not famous for his power and wealth. What is more surprising about him is his profound knowledge and he understands everything.
“Okay, sir, now, tell us about the current situation of the Ming Dynasty. I have received a report about you, but I always think that it will be more convincing only if you come here in person and tell us personally.”
Wang Xizuo felt He was a little dizzy, his pupils were constricted, and he couldn’t work up his energy. He said sickly: “Your Highness, I lived in the capital of the Ming Dynasty for several years. What I saw there was a fallen empire. , their ships…”
Wang Xizuo began to continue what he had said to countless people along the way.
People listened and exclaimed.
His Highness the King stood upright. The tight pants on his lower body set off his slender figure, and his curvy red beard was even more eye-catching. His eyes were slightly closed, as if listening, and from time to time, he showed a knowing smile.
Wang Xizuo’s spirit became increasingly depressed and he began to cough.
What he said also began to be unclear.
His Royal Highness the King got information about Daming. He looked at Wang Xizuo and said, “Look, I said that there is too much dirt in his blood from the east. He is sick. Mr. Barber, please Give him further treatment immediately.”
After hearing this, the royal personal barber nodded. This time, he took out a chisel from the tool box!
Wang Xizuo looked at the chisel and suddenly felt his vision go dark. His mind was buzzing and he subconsciously wanted to cover the veins on his arm.
He looked at all this in horror, like a frightened deer.
The royal personal barber made the sign of the cross on his chest and said kindly: “Sir, please roll up your sleeves again.”
“
Gentlemen!” His Royal Highness was no longer in the mood to pay attention to this visitor from the East. He was blushing and excited. He put his hand on the hilt of the gorgeous rapier and made a heroic gesture: “The mission God has given us is to conquer this decadent and backward Eastern Empire and destroy their presence in the world. Everything will drive them back to hell!”
People cheered excitedly: “Long live!”
In this warm atmosphere, Wang Xizuo, who had fainted, was quietly carried out.
He drained half a basin of blood.
