The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1390

[1390. Chapter 1320 What the People Want]

Emperor Hongzhi said three good words in a row.

Zhu Zaimo understood the emperor’s grandfather’s mood very well and said: “I heard from my mentor that if you are a gentry, it is difficult to satisfy their appetite. If you let him have thousands of acres of fertile land, he will want more; but the common people, It is easy to satisfy them. Give them a mouthful of rice and a few liters of food to help them tide over the difficulties. In the past, Sun Chen didn’t believe it, but now… he roughly understands what this means. “

Emperor Hongzhi wiped his tears and nodded slowly: “Yes, you are right. Remember your teacher’s words.”

Outside the carriage, when the chariot was halfway through, the momentum became more and more fierce. The sound of long live the Qing Dynasty broke through the sky.

In the beginning, many disaster victims were only organized by practitioners.

But when I got here, I saw the emperor’s chariot.

The tradition of imperial power for thousands of years has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

And when Emperor Hongzhi was in power, even they knew that the world was peaceful and generally peaceful. Although the people were still living in hardship, they were not much better than before.

They also knew a thing or two about the rumors about Emperor Hongzhi’s diligent work.

What’s more, after falling into the despair of the catastrophe, the government began to give them a glimmer of hope. Countless people moved and relocated them in order for them to survive, provided them with food rations along the way, and sent people to settle among them. They built a canteen, a school, a medical center, recommended jobs to them, and distributed bedding to them. All these things were happening right in front of them and were unforgettable. Thinking about it at this moment, this was not a way to save lives. Well, what is it?

As a result, many people were immersed in it, saying that the prince and the Duke of Qi were doing the hard work, and the students from Xishan Academy also helped a lot. But in the final analysis, it was not the emperor who took pity on the people and took out a few from the inner treasury. Will endless money and food allow everyone to tide over the difficulties together?

Many people were already in tears.

From the beginning, the uniform shouting began to become choked and hysterical.

Under this emotion, some people couldn’t help but beat their chests and feet, and some began to try to push forward excitedly.

Fortunately, there were enough personnel to stabilize the situation.

But this scene was a little out of control. Countless people bowed down one after another, stood up, and then bowed again.

Zhu Houzhao was riding a horse and walking in front. Looking at this scene, he couldn’t help but smack his tongue. He turned back subconsciously and glanced at the chariot. His father was in the car. He didn’t know how he felt. The next moment, Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan, He sighed with emotion: “Old Fang, you still have a way.”

Fang Jifan felt heavy in his heart. When he came to this world, he made up his mind to change the world and make it better. Today…he heard that I Long live the emperor, so why not be grateful to yourself.

When a real man is alive, he should establish a reputation that will last forever, serving the king at the top and protecting the people at the bottom. If it is beneficial to the country, even if you die a hundred times, you will not hesitate.

Except for the word “hundred deaths”, which is worthy of discussion, Fang Jifan did the rest.

He took a deep breath and was a little moved, but he couldn’t let Zhu Houzhao underestimate him. He smiled at Zhu Houzhao: “No, no, this is nothing. His Royal Highness is also very good. His sweaters are so good that no one can match them.”

This was originally a sentence .

A little irony, Fang Jifan was used to hitting Zhu Houzhao.

But who would have expected that Zhu Houzhao didn’t know whether he didn’t hear the harsh word “knitting sweaters”, but his eyes lit up and he laughed: “You are right, I don’t know how to knit sweaters, I can also… “

His next words were drowned by the surging shouts.

Fang Jifan didn’t bother to listen anyway.

………

All the officials around Yu Jia were shocked.

Liu Jian looked in front of him in astonishment and heard countless deafening shouts.

At first, he thought that maybe… the prince was planning it behind his back and did it intentionally.

He couldn’t help but think that the prince was quite capable.

But then, when he saw the faces and the hysterical, almost hoarse voices, Liu Jian was shocked.

These emotions…are real.

It is absolutely impossible to cheat.

His heart suddenly became heavy.

What’s this?

This is what the people want.

His Majesty has been enshrined for several months. In these few months, what exactly did His Majesty the Crown Prince do to create this popular sentiment?

Behind them, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other’s eyes.

Xiao Jing couldn’t understand it. He couldn’t understand that hundreds of thousands of people in this dark place could be so orderly. The scary thing was that the emotions they burst out were not false at all.

This comes from the heart and it couldn’t be more true.

The officials all had their own thoughts, some were complicated, some were thoughtful, and some were frightened by the scene and turned pale.

Every step they took seemed as if their thighs were filled with lead, extremely heavy. The cheers made them naturally think of many words from the Four Books and Five Classics.

This…is the people!

Zeng Jie was in the crowd. He had been weighing whether he had persuaded His Majesty and whether he should continue to increase the pressure. But now, he was staring at all this with dumbfounded eyes, and his whole body… was shaking.

A sense of fear arose from deep in his heart, permeating his whole body.

His Royal Highness… This is His Royal Highness’s arrangement.

But hundreds of thousands of people were at the mercy of His Highness the Crown Prince, and they were happy to do so.

The most important thing is that they all cheered in unison for Your Majesty’s grace with rain and dew. This…

is over.

Zeng Jie was confused, suddenly dizzy, and his eyesight turned dark.

Several colleagues around him, who were walking with him, unknowingly began to speed up their pace, seeming to deliberately leave him behind.

Like avoiding the god of plague, everyone tried their best to avoid him. Even breathing the same air with him felt as if they were about to be beheaded.

Zeng Jie subconsciously looked at Xiao Jing beside the chariot.

He panicked and stepped forward quickly: “Eunuch Xiao, Eunuch Xiao…”

He timidly wanted to shout, but Zeng Jie felt that he should discuss with Eunuch Xiao how to turn things around and see if there was anything wrong. room.

But Xiao Jinli ignored him.

Zeng Jie became even more anxious and shouted again, attracting other people’s attention.

At this moment, Xiao Jing almost wanted to kill someone. He looked back at Zeng Jie with eyes like knives.

Zeng Jie was frightened by this look and subconsciously took a step back.

“Get away!” Xiao Jing warned him.

Eunuch Xiao…

Zeng Jie is about to cry. How can he get away? A disaster is imminent. He is following Xiao Jing step by step. At this time, he is like a person who has fallen into the water and cannot swim. What should he do if Eunuch Xiao doesn’t Is that the life-saving straw?

Xiao Jing was confused. Could this guy be trying to drag him into trouble?

Xiao Jing’s face turned miserable, and he began to plan desperately in his mind.

…………

to more than a thousand steps.

Suddenly, it seemed as if it had been rehearsed.

A group of people began to appear in the road.

The leaders are all old people.

Seventy years is rare in life.

In this era, people who can live to be seventy years old are very rare. In history, a certain emperor of later generations once held a banquet for thousands of old people to entertain officials and citizens who were over sixty-five years old. The number of people who attended the banquet was only two thousand. Just people.

Most of the victims are poor people, and there are even fewer people of this age.

Led by a total of six old men, they entered the street, followed by a group of little girls and old women.

These six people all have white beards and hair. The leader’s surname is Zheng, and his name is Zheng Qing. He is bald, with sparse white beards only under his chin. He walks with a stick and trembles slightly.

An old house where a treasure.

This means that in this era, it is extremely difficult to support an old person. Therefore, people not only have a sense of respect for people who live a long life, but also respect those who have elderly people at home when they mention it.

The car suddenly stopped.

At this time, the voice of long live the voice gradually became smaller.

In the group, liaison officers like Zhao Mu constantly remind people around them.

Attention, all groups, please stop shouting.

…

Xiao Jing was beside the car. At this moment, his heart was extremely complicated.

The prince was still playing with the Guild of Qi, and all the old people came out.

Xiao Jing’s heart was desperate.

He gently knocked on the door of the carriage and said: “Your Majesty, there is an old man in front of you. Please bow down in the road.”

The old man…

Emperor Hongzhi’s body was shaken.

The country governs the world with filial piety, and those who are the emperor set an example for the people of the world.

Therefore, respecting and respecting the elderly is what the emperor must do.

Emperor Hongzhi did not dare to neglect and ordered the team to stop moving forward.

Then, Xiao Jing opened the car door.

Even though he was poorly equipped after a long journey, Emperor Hongzhi got out of the car and at the moment when his toes touched the ground under the gaze of thousands of people, Emperor Hongzhi still adjusted his clothes subconsciously.

If I had known this, I should have come wearing a crown that reaches the sky and a royal robe.

Wearing only casual clothes, he seemed regretful.

Emperor Hongzhi raised his head, and all the officials came to the carriage door to salute.

Emperor Hongzhi did not look at them and raised his eyes.

As soon as he saw the emperor getting out of the car.

In the group, the liaison officers began to give instructions.

Attention, all groups, salute.

Whooping… Thousands of people prostrated themselves, like waves of wheat blown by the wind, and countless heads hung down.

“Long live my emperor!”

Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes turned red again.

He took a deep breath. He must not be rude at this time.

He winked at Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing was in a trance and did not respond.

Under the public gaze, Emperor Hongzhi was the most particular about etiquette. Who would have thought that at this time, Xiao Jing would actually lose his temper.

He felt slightly angry.

When Xiao Jing came back from his mind wandering, he saw something was wrong in Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes. He reacted and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: “Pingsheng, Your Majesty has an edict, and you don’t need to be polite.”

His voice could convey the message.

The place is not far away.

But the people nearby stood up one after another.

When other people saw this, they naturally started to move as well. This huge momentum shocked people.
