The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1493

[1493. Chapter 1418 Heart of Steel]

Liu Jie no longer has the energy to speak.

As I lay here, the days felt like years. The bone-gnawing pain was definitely not something ordinary people could bear.

Still he persisted.

He thought this was a test from God.

He repeatedly recited the new teachings of his mentor Wang Shouren silently for countless times.

But…he really couldn’t hold on anymore.

Every day, medical students guarded him and rescued him from the critical line of life and death.

But he felt like his body was rotting.

Xu Jing patted the back of his hand and stared at the nephew with a firm gaze. Although he was used to seeing life and death, he still didn’t want Liu Jie to die.

“Countless fierce battles are all thanks to you. You led the scouts and were ambushed many times, and all the dangers were saved. If it weren’t for your spies, how would Huangjinzhou be today? The prince of Xinjin County has given an explanation, and he will let you live no matter what. Go down, Golden Continent, we need you. And your father, your father… is looking forward to you… looking forward to your return. Among the disciples of my mentor, you are the most outstanding. My teacher is disappointed.”

Liu Jie’s breath gradually weakened.

Xu Jing stood up. In this low cabin, on this palm-sized scum of the world, the Wang Bu Shi, it is the easiest place to feel despair. Compared with this vast ocean, no matter how big the ship is, It was enough to make the people on the boat feel desperate.

Only the strongest people can ignore their own insignificance and struggle in the sea again and again.

Because they firmly believe that in this world, compared with this vast ocean, there is something more noble than the heaven and earth, thousands of miles of waves, or the moody hurricane.

It’s the spirit!

Xu Jing stood up, looked at Liu Jie condescendingly, and said categorically: “Do you still remember the oath you made at the beginning? Set up a heart for the world, establish a destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge for the saints, and create peace for all generations! So…live on !”

He turned around, walked toward the cabin door, and disappeared into the darkness.

Xu Jing’s body was already a little rickety.

Time after time of sailing, his once beautiful face was destroyed. Overwork made him prematurely aging, so that in his prime, his body was slightly bowed, but he still stood firm and walked. Like the wind, he has been devastated and defeated countless enemies. He is still alive, and the blood is still flowing in his body. Apart from what he has learned in his heart, he has no reverence for this world. . If there is an enemy, defeat him. If he encounters the God of Death, then… he will pull people back from the God of Death. If there is a storm or disease, so what. He is convinced that as long as he still has a breath left, he will be invincible.

Some people are like porcelain bottles, they look beautiful and crystal clear, but they break when touched.

Some people are like steel. Thousands of hardships will only make them stronger through tempering.

Outside the cabin door, there is a starry sky, and in the veil-like Milky Way, thousands of stars are shining brightly.

For a person like Xu Jing, such beautiful scenery on such a good time, he would never think of such beautiful stories as the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in his mind. He looked up at the stars and thought that one day, when he died, he would also become a Be a star in this night sky, illuminating the future of future generations.

………

Every time he came to Tianjin Wei, Fang Jifan was dumbfounded by the changes in Tianjin Wei.

Tang Yin presides over this place. As the gateway to the capital and Fang Jifan’s dissatisfied disciple, the new policies here are also very impressive.

A large number of people gathered and countless shipyards were built.

Many workshops used for export are emitting thick smoke, and the laying of railways has come to an end and will be open to traffic in the spring of next year.

The newly opened Tianjin New City is also particularly dazzling.

Tang Yin personally welcomed his mentor and settled him down.

Tang Yin had mixed feelings when he heard that Junior Brother Xu Jing was coming back.

The senior brothers have not seen each other for an unknown amount of time.

The friendship in the past and the love of classmates since then were all vivid in his mind. In his mind, the image of Xu Jing was still that handsome and graceful man. His only regret was that he had long lost the suaveness of a talented man from the south of the Yangtze River. , and no longer have the freedom to drink with others.

Fang Jifan sat down, crossed his legs, took a sip of tea, looked at Tang Yin who was serving beside him, and said the first thing he said: “Bohu, have you divorced your wife?”

Tang Yin: “…”

The evil wife in his family is indeed Very annoying.

As Tang Yin’s mentor, it is very reasonable for him to care about his disciple’s marital status.

Tang Yin said: “I wrote a divorce letter a long time ago, but his family came to make trouble several times.”

Fang Jifan bared his teeth: “They came to make trouble, but didn’t they tell me my name?”

Tang Yin lowered his head in shame.

But in his heart, he was quite touched. His mentor was still concerned about his students’ lives and his family was uneasy. As a disciple, he was really ashamed of his mentor.

He fell asleep every now and then, but stopped talking.

Fang Jifan said, “Let me know if you have anything to say.”

“Disciple recognizes a woman named Jiuniang…”

Fang Jifan felt a little jealous in his heart. How come you know so many women? Why can’t you recognize her as a teacher?

Tang Yin continued: “The disciple and her are quite attached to each other, but it’s just helpless… helpless… ugh…”

Fang Jifan said: “Can you say it in one sentence? There is half a pound of water in one sentence. People who don’t know it will think that this is a teacher teaching you.”

Tang Yin bit the bullet: “It’s just a pity that she is a fireworks woman.”

” Yeah.” Fang Jifan said, “Bohu, are you still hanging out in the land of fireworks?”

“I knew him from the past, when he was in Jiangnan.” Tang Yin’s face turned red: “My disciple wants to continue, but… I’m worried… …”

“Go on, as long as you like.” Fang Jifan looked very calm.

“But… isn’t my mentor afraid…”

Fang Jifan shook his head: “Since you have the intention to continue your relationship and ignore the world’s criticism in order to marry this girl, it shows that you are truly affectionate. You have had a bad fate in your life and it is rare to meet her. Why are you still hesitating after finding a pearl? As a teacher, you are already used to being scolded. What does it mean if your disciple marries a woman with fireworks? Since you have known me for so many years, you still have this thought. It can be seen that you have decided that I hate men taking concubines the most. Tomorrow I will report to the emperor to abolish concubinage. Now that I have a woman I like, I will marry him. That’s it. “

Concubinage is very annoying. As a concubine, no, as a conscientious and real man who is free from vulgar taste and has the courage to take responsibility, Fang Jifan is very opposed to this trend.

Tang Yin looked surprised, and then fell at Fang Jifan’s feet: “Teacher… your kindness is as heavy as a mountain, and it’s hard to repay it even if your student is shattered to pieces. Teacher… your student has caused you trouble.”

Fang Jifan smiled and nodded: “I love you as a teacher.”

“Oh, let’s see Jiuniang in a few days.”

“Yes.” Tang Yin burst into tears.

The official woman he married before was mean and powerful, and Tang Yin’s family was in a state of decline. This woman caused a lot of trouble in the family, and did not give Tang Yin any warmth after losing his father and his family was in decline. After that, he became a disciple of Fang Jifan and began to rise to prominence. The woman’s natal family came to her door all the time, hoping that Tang Yin would take care of her. Fang Jifan’s support gave him great courage to divorce his wife.

Now, he has to do it again…

When he thought of this, he felt ashamed.

After staying in Tianjin Wei for two days, someone came to report that the fleet was back.

Fang Jifan and Tang Yin were busy taking their people to the port.

Outside Tianjin Port, the first person to enter the bay was the scumbag Wang Bushi.

The flag of the scum king of the world is flying high on the mast.

This fearsome name is said to be enough to frighten Xiaoxiao overseas. Even the Spaniards are frightened when they see Wang Bushi’s name.

The Wang Bu Shi quickly entered the port.

Then, someone brought the stretcher down.

Fang Jifan felt strange. When he got on the trestle, he saw that the person carrying the stretcher was actually Xu Jing.

As soon as Xu Jing saw Fang Jifan, he burst into tears and said sadly: “Teacher, student…is back…”

Fang Jifan exhaled.

This ugly, dark guy… is Xu Jing.

After trying hard to identify, Xu Jing’s shadow was vaguely seen.

Suddenly, Fang Jifan had mixed feelings and stepped forward to hold Xu Jing’s trembling shoulders: “Father Heng, you really want to die as a teacher.”

Xu Jing’s big tears fell down.

Yes, why don’t I want to kill my mentor?

I simply think about it day and night, while eating and sleeping.

Something suddenly occurred to him, and before he could express his feelings of separation, he said anxiously: “Teacher, look, look, Liu Jie… Liu Jie is back.”

“Which Liu Jie?” Fang Jifan was stunned.

Human brain capacity is limited, and the information stored is not as good as a Kingston memory card.

“My mentor’s disciple, the son of Liu Jian.”

It turned out to be him…

But when he saw Xu Jing put down the stretcher in tears, Fang Jifan noticed the person on the stretcher, and his expression suddenly changed: “Why are you injured?”

“Teacher, he is dying. We need to think of a solution.”

Fang Jifan’s face became solemn.

He was not a heartless person. He stepped forward to check and saw Liu Jie’s general condition. He was surprised and said: “The injury is so serious. Quick, quick, send it to Tianjin Wei’s medical center and call for help.” “

Medical student.”

“I’m afraid it won’t work…”

Xu Jing said: “It needs to be operated on immediately, and it needs to be performed by a skilled person. There is no way for an ordinary medical student.”

“Prince?” Fang Jifan blurted out.

“In terms of surgical skills, the only one who can come here is His Royal Highness the Prince of Labor.”

Fang Jifan said: “If anyone comes, please come down immediately.”

“No.” Fang Jifan seemed to have thought of something. He was already cold, and Tianjin Wei’s medical conditions were limited, so he changed his mind and said: “Prepare a carriage and drive day and night back to the capital, with a fast horse in front, and inform His Royal Highness the Prince and the Medical College in advance to let them do the work. Be ready, hurry up! “
