The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1436
[1436. Chapter 1364 How about I also be a deputy?]
During the Angkor Period…
the king immediately understood something.
The Angkor period mentioned by Beardo Lou was a period before the Kingdom of Chenla was invaded by the Siamese.
At that time, the defeat of the Angkor Dynasty had been exposed, the people were in dire straits, and there were internal and external troubles. Under the constant attacks of powerful enemies, the Angkor Dynasty continued to recruit troops to defend itself against the Siamese.
The gold, silver and copper coins made during that period were almost the worst. Because of limited resources and for the purpose of recruiting troops, these coins were called bad coins.
Although these coins are still handed down, they are worth a lot in Zhenla.
Who would have thought that those wise men would be so stupid and accept all the money as ordered.
The king gently stroked the cloth with his hand, and couldn’t help but sigh: “What a good cloth, such a cloth…”
At this point, he suddenly opened his eyes, stared at Beard Duolou, and then said: “Buy more Daming There seems to be nothing wrong with the treasure.”
Yan Duolou nodded, looking excited, and said: “Yes, Your Majesty, I understand.”
The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly.
The king immediately became relaxed and said with a smile: “How was the discussion with the Franco envoy a few days ago?”
“The Franco people obviously want to use Zhenla to deter the Ming Dynasty’s Jiaozhi Chief Envoy. So. I hope they can provide us with a batch of Franco’s muskets.”
A look of ridicule appeared on the king’s face: “In the past, they blackmailed us, but now… they hope to give us the magic weapons for free.
” : “Your Majesty, this is obviously a strategy of the Francois to drive a wedge between us and the Ming Dynasty.”
The king nodded slowly: “Of course I understand that the Francois are not good people, and neither are the Ming people. “
What a good thing, one of them is greedy and the other claims to be a heavenly king. Nowadays, these Ming people are becoming more and more outrageous. There are many people from Cochin who claim to be students of New Confucianism and enter the country. In the past, preaching everywhere, if this continues, won’t our Zhenla Buddha Kingdom be destroyed? Of course… Ming people must not be offended, but we also want the benefits of the Francons.”
He sat down and showed his kindness .
He showed a bit of the bravery of a young king, his eyes were like torches, and he said calmly and calmly: “Externally, you must be respectful to the Ming people and never give them excuses, but internally, you must be on guard against these new Confucians, and you must be wary of the Ming people.” As for the Franji people… I know that they are trying to divide themselves, but of course they have to ask for the benefits they give. Chenla has been a powerful country for thousands of years. For a hundred years, Siam has always been strong. It is a serious trouble for us, but now… it is a thousand-year change, and Siam’s trouble is nothing compared with the trouble of the Ming Dynasty and the trouble of Franchi. At this time, we must strengthen ourselves, otherwise, the ancestors will be harmed. The foundation was destroyed, so Duoduo smelted coins to replenish the national treasury; recruited warriors and borrowed Franco’s guns to strengthen his country. In addition, Duoduo sent envoys to pay tribute to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and must not offend anyone. Daming.”
He paused: “Tomorrow… we will gather a group of craftsmen to build a pagoda, called the Mu’en Pagoda. In a few days, we will invite officials from the Chief Envoy of Cochin to come and watch the ceremony. I will personally bring hundreds of people with me. Officer, go to greet the Buddha. This pagoda was built for the Ming Dynasty Emperor. It is called Mu’en, which means that our Zhenla Kingdom is bathing in heaven’s grace.”
Beard Duolou looked at the young king with admiration on his face .
Color, he said respectfully: “Mu En Pagoda, I will do it in person, and there will never be any mistakes.”
The king showed a satisfied smile, and took a deep look at Beard Duolou: “There is also the matter of purchasing Ming treasures. We must pay close attention to the secret talks between Franji people.”
“Yes.”
The
promotion of the new treasure banknotes has begun.
Banks all over the country have issued announcements, allowing previous banknotes to be exchanged for new banknotes at any time.
If it’s too late to change, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, you can use the old banknotes casually, and they will eventually be recycled back to the bank in the future.
In this way, no inconvenience was caused.
In the blink of an eye, the branches and leaves gradually turned golden, and it was the beginning of autumn.
The weather is getting cooler.
Zhu Houzhao felt the coolness and was very excited. He had been looking forward to the cooler weather. At this time, the sweaters he knitted for the Empress Dowager, his father, his mother, Fang Jifan, his sister, Concubine Fang, and the children were put to use. land.
While this guy is going to be on duty at Shuntian Mansion, he is still in charge of the research institute.
Since the advent of the microscope, many mechanical and medical advances have been made by leaps and bounds.
In particular, the medical school has now established a research department dedicated to observing microorganisms, conducting research on the blood of different patients, and has even made great progress in drug treatment.
Su Yue even noticed the problem of inflammation.
He discovered at this time that the most important reason for the significant increase in mortality among people facing diseases today is inflammation.
If people get sick, whether it is external or internal injuries, it will cause the virus to continue to multiply. If things go on like this, there will be no cure.
The fundamental means of treatment lies in obtaining drugs that suppress the virus.
Therefore, Su Yue, headed by countless medical schools, invested a lot of resources and focused on this.
Not long ago, he had a paper that concluded that more than 70% of patients died of serious illness due to this. If this problem can be solved, it will undoubtedly save countless people.
Fang Jifan strongly supported Su Yue. He had money…
if it really yielded results, it would be terrible. If a drug company went public…it could directly become a pillar industry in Xishan.
Fang Jifan actually didn’t understand these things. He had to specialize in the art, which was obviously not what he was good at.
He had heard about antibiotics, but he had no idea how to discover them or how to refine them.
Even… Fang Jifan didn’t know how many years it would take to discover this. It might be ten, fifty, or hundreds of years.
But…as long as the direction is right, then…even if the predecessors spent a lot of money and let future generations discover it based on the predecessors, why not?
After all, Fang Jifan was someone who had escaped from vulgar taste.
For this reason, Fang Jifan and Su Yue talked several times.
According to the vague memory, he explained the concept of antibiotics to Su Yue in a mysterious way.
Su Yue listened very seriously. She took out a pen and paper and carefully wrote down the master’s words one by one. She was so submissive that she almost regarded Fang Jifan as a god.
“These concepts put forward by the teacher really enlightened the students and they were taught.”
Su Yue bowed to Fang Jifan in a polite manner.
“Stop being stupid like this.” Fang Jifan waved his hand and said two words simply: “Get out!”
Su Yue smiled.
You are worthy of being a master. Those who do great things do not stick to trivial matters. Those who are magnanimous in heart will inevitably speak without taboos. Only despicable villains will always feel sad, speak cautiously, and look forward and backward.
Master…this sentence, “Go away,” is as bright as the bright moon in the sky. It is really worth learning as a disciple.
He bowed with sincerity, saluted, and excused himself.
………
Fang Jifan entered the palace the next day.
Emperor Hongzhi took another memorial. This memorial was news from the Zhenla Kingdom. It was said that the Zhenla Kingdom had built the Mu’en Pagoda, and the king of that country personally brought hundreds of officials to worship. The pagoda was meant to bathe in heaven’s grace. , which made Emperor Hongzhi’s expression soften a lot.
Finally… Although the Zhenla Kingdom had colluded with the Francois, they were still respectful to the Ming Dynasty.
Emperor Hongzhi turned his eyes and looked up at Fang Jifan under Jin Luan.
Fang Jifan sat hunched over, looking bored.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said: “There is no news about Liu Wenshan and others yet, is there?”
Fang Jifan said: “Yes, Your Majesty… But I think it will be here soon.”
Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood, still with a slight smile on his face, He said: “Well, I’m not in a hurry. Such a big thing can’t be so easy. You don’t have to hurry to rush them, but it will make them panic.”
Fang Jifan said in his heart, I didn’t rush. He said: “Your Majesty is really a sage…”
Xiao Jing, who was standing next to Emperor Hongzhi, was like a wooden stake, as if he could do whatever he wanted. Qi Guogong, you can brag as much as you want, and you don’t want to learn anymore. Anyway, this is He has the ability to find every opportunity and just the right amount, but he is too old and his brain can’t keep up and he can’t learn it.
At this time, Emperor Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief and said: “I have read the journals in the past few days, saying that there have been new discoveries in medicine. In this world, the vast majority of people who die of illness are due to some kind of bacterial infection… If it weren’t for me When I saw the existence of the tiny worms with my own eyes, I really thought it was a fantasy. Sigh… If a real medical school could solve this problem, I would really be able to exhale and raise my eyebrows. In the future, when I am under Jiuquan and in front of my ancestors, I dare to say something with no regrets.”
Fang Jifan said: “I have already used a lot of manpower and material resources to ask the Crown Prince to take charge, and Su Yue has chosen many. The elite soldiers are dedicated to studying this matter.”
“Why do you always ask the prince to come?” Emperor Hongzhi frowned.
Is the prince going to neglect his duties again?
Fang Jifan smiled bitterly and said: “Your Majesty, these important national affairs are related to curing diseases and saving people, and are the foundation of the country. If it succeeds, His Highness the Crown Prince will be remembered by the people of the world, and future generations will not know how to express their gratitude to His Highness the Crown Prince.” As for Enze. Of course, this is secondary. The most important thing is that with His Royal Highness as the leader, the people below are also willing to do their best… Everyone knows that the court attaches great importance to this matter. Of course… they have to forget about food and sleep. Then he died.”
Emperor Hongzhi’s expression finally softened and he said, “What about the successor? Why don’t the successor take up a post?”
Fang Jifan showed a hint of embarrassment and said, “My son has died .
.”
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and looked at Fang Jifan with a smile: “How about I become a deputy?”
