The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1510

[1510. Chapter 1434 The water of the Yellow River…is clear]

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he blinked, first stunned, and then smiled.

He believed in Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan told him not to be anxious, so there was no need to worry.

However…

Zhu Houzhao became melancholy again when he heard Fang Jifan tell him to quickly find a way to mass-produce new drugs.

Now, all the research institute has is money. After all, it is on the market, and so many people are waving money and sending it over.

However, when it comes to mass production and large-scale mass production, there are many difficulties that Zhu Houzhao must overcome.

This is also where Zhu Houzhao is helpless.

This is different from knitting a sweater.

The road of science is always one difficulty after another. After you climb one hill, there will be a new mountain waiting for you.

Zhu Houzhao curled his lips, but responded: “Soon!”

…

The third day.

The debate continues.

This time, the Hanlin Academy was even more crowded.

After all, the last debate had whetted everyone’s appetite.

Wang Zuo’s lofty speech won the applause and recognition of countless people.

After all, he is a man of high moral character and full of knowledge.

Even the new disciples have to admit this.

As for Li Chaowen…

his performance is truly worthy of his reputation as a real person.

Originally, everyone respected this real person quite a bit, but now they have a bit more contempt for him.

Emperor Hongzhi got up early in the morning and seemed worried. Before the debate began, Emperor Hongzhi summoned Wang Zuo and Fang Jifan to see him.

Emperor Hongzhi looked very tired, with bags under his eyes, obviously he had not slept all night.

First he glanced at Wang Zuo, then at Fang Jifan.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and said, “You two nobles don’t need to be polite. Come and give me a seat.”

Wang Zuo nodded.

Fang Jifan was already seated.

Wang Zuo and Fang Jifan didn’t look at each other, treating each other as nothing.

Emperor Hongzhi immediately said: “Wang Qing’s family, I have heard your name for a long time. How about being in Nanjing?”

Wang Zuo said in a loud voice: “Your Majesty, it’s okay.”

Emperor Hongzhi asked the case and said lightly: “Do you have any feelings for me? “I am dissatisfied.”

After Wang Zuo heard this, he immediately stood up and bowed down and said, “Why did your Majesty say this? I have been honored by Your Majesty and have served me well. I am so blessed by your grace. I admire your kindness and it is too late to repay it. How can I say that I am dissatisfied?” Emperor

Hongzhi said: “Then why did Wang Qing’s family go against me so many times?”

Emperor Hongzhi made it clear, I am the emperor and you are a minister, so why do you come to undermine me?

Wang Zuo solemnly said: “This is just for the sake of the country. Your Majesty, have you forgotten what happened during the Chenghua period? I received your Majesty’s grace and saw that someone deceived the emperor. The so-called injustice will be heard. There is no reason to remain silent. Your Majesty… Wang

Zuo’s eyes turned red when he said this, and he said with a bit of sadness: “I heard a lot of things in Nanjing. Your Majesty has changed his mind and wants to implement a new system. Do you dare to ask your Majesty, is the ancestral law useless?” In the south of the Yangtze River, many scholars were ruined after ten years of poverty due to His Majesty’s new system. There is no hope for the imperial examination. The dissatisfied ones are like the crucian carp crossing the river. What I am worried about is that if this continues, these scholars will die. There is dry firewood everywhere, and whenever there are sparks, it is a raging fire. Your Majesty, this fire is going to be burned by none other than Your Majesty. Nowadays, there is a trend of luxury in the world, and scholars are not involved. At this level, I am not talented. This time I came to Beijing, it is called a debate, but it is actually for the sake of the country. I hope to persuade Your Majesty, please think twice about everything, and do not act too hastily. What is related to this is the fate of countless people. It is the future of thousands of people. How can it be that your Majesty will stick to your words just because the Duke of Qi is closer to you?”

After saying that, he kowtowed and said, “Your Majesty, please think again.”

Emperor Hongzhi frowned .

He frowned and looked melancholy. He could tell that Wang Zuo was a loyal minister and that he had no fault in any case.

This is the difficulty for the emperor.

Sometimes, he knows that something is right, but there are always people who stop him. It doesn’t matter if the people who stop him are traitors, but these people happen to be brave and loyal people.

Even the leader of a country has a lot of helplessness!

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan at this time.

Fang Jifan looked innocent and blinked.

Emperor Hongzhi’s face dropped.

It seems to be saying, it’s not that you are useless, and that Li Chaowen is a big joke, otherwise why would I be so embarrassed to ask for help?

But you, Fang Jifan, still have no shame at all.

Emperor Hongzhi turned his head slightly and stared at Wang Zuo: “Let’s forget about these for now.”

Wang Zuo’s heart dropped.

Regardless of what it means, this is a big deal.

Emperor Hongzhi said again: “I just want to ask you, can the Qing family leave Li Chaowen alone when discussing Taoism today?”

Wang Zuo suddenly felt heartbroken, paused, and said: “I… don’t dare to do it every time. “According to the imperial edict.”

Emperor Hongzhi’s face became a little more severe, giving people an invisible sense of oppression: “Aren’t you afraid that I will deal with you?”

Obviously Wang Zuo was a gentleman who was not afraid of power, and he said solemnly without hesitation: “I have done the worst. “Prepare.” Emperor

Hongzhi

pursed his lips and said, “You thought you were right, but you were wrong.”

“If you are wrong,” Wang Zuo said stubbornly, “I will pay the price.”

He looked straight at Wang Zuo and was silent for a long time.

Then, he waved his hand: “Please step back, please.”

Fang

Jifan and Wang Zuo exited Fengtian Hall.

Fang Jifan then said: “Wang Butang, just now…”

Wang Zuo snorted coldly, looking disdainful, his eyes full of contempt.

Then, he said calmly: “Mr. Qi, please take care of yourself.”

Fang Jifan was not the kind of person who was willing to accept anger. He found this person very annoying, and his temper got angry: “I said this to you.”

Wang Zuo smiled, but this The smile did not reach his eyes, but showed mockery: “Really? Then today we will expose the hidden secrets between Qi Guogong and Li Daoren, so that everyone in the world will know what it means to work together in collusion. It is not enough for you to cause trouble to the country. “

Fang Jifan: “…”

It’s such a big hat

to bring trouble to the country ?

Fang Jifan was very happy.

“Do you know why I didn’t beat you to death?”

This time it was Wang Zuo’s turn to be silent.

Fang Jifan twitched the corner of his mouth, revealed a sneer, and said: “Because I don’t have to beat you to death, and you can’t even hope to beat my nephew in an argument.”

After that, Fang Jifan put his hands behind his back and left first.

Wang Zuo’s face turned purple with anger.

This Duke of Qi… is really… dying, and he doesn’t even know yet.

This person is so domineering, it is really abominable.

When Wang Zuo arrived at the Hanlin Academy.

But they found that Fang Jifan and Li Chaowen had already arrived.

When the Hanlin officials saw the Duke of Qi coming, they behaved much better.

Fang Jifan sat at the top, and the others sat on their knees on the left and right.

Shen Wennai was a bachelor of Hanlin University, but his status was lower than that of Fang Jifan, so he had to sit beside him.

The rest of Wang Bushi and others were all silent.

However, more people, although they have sullen faces and appear serious, are actually quite interested in watching a good show.

Li Chaowen and his uncle looked at each other, but they saw his uncle with his feet up and looking at the excitement with a tea cup in his hands, feeling very complicated.

Wang Zuo took his seat, only greeted Shen Wen and others, and then looked at Li Chaowen.

His expression was cold.

“Li Chaowen!” Call Li Chaowen by his first name.

Li Chaowen said: “The imperial court bestowed upon me a real person.”

Wang Zuo looked at Li Chaowen with mocking eyes and said: “Are you worthy of being a real person? It just so happens that your uncle Qi Guogong Fang Jifan is here today. I want to ask, what are you talking about? Wasn’t it ordered by your uncle Fang Jifan?”

Li Chaowen seemed magnanimous and did not pursue his rudeness. He shook his head calmly and said, “This is God’s will.”

“It’s the same thing you said about Ziweixing and Huangheqing again. “

Li Chaowen said calmly: “This is God’s will.”

“A gentleman should keep away from ghosts and gods…you don’t understand this.”

“I am a foreigner…not a gentleman.

” …”

…

At this time, a letter of dispatch was urgently delivered to the palace.

Emperor Hongzhi opened it and was stunned.

He never expected that, uh…

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Xiao Jing and couldn’t help but said: “Xiao Banban, come and see, this is indeed God’s will…”

Xiao Jing knew that His Majesty had been gloomy for many days. .

But at this moment, His Majesty was smiling and excited, something was abnormal.

Xiao Jing immediately glanced at the report obediently, and his legs suddenly became weak.

Damn…

the Yellow River water…it’s clear.

Could it be…could it be…serious…that this was really God’s will?

Yes, if it wasn’t God’s will, how could the water of the Yellow River be cleaned?

Xiao Jing was shocked and terrified.

It’s terrible. This is truly God’s will.

No matter how calm Xiao Jing was, he couldn’t help but say hysterically at this moment: “Your Majesty… accepts the destiny of heaven, this… this… is the true emperor.”

Emperor Hongzhi’s rapid breathing actually made him a little confused.

In fact, Emperor Hongzhi really couldn’t understand how the Yellow River water could be cleared.

But one thing can prove that Fang Jifan has absolutely no ability to make the turbid Yellow River water clear.

Then the only reason is…that Zhenren Li is really a master of Taoism and a true immortal.

After Emperor Hongzhi received the memorial, he suddenly felt energetic and energetic.

Even though he had stayed up all night last night, his eyes were extremely bright at this time. He asked seriously: “Where are Fang Jifan and the others?”

Xiao Jing said quickly: “In the Hanlin Academy.”

Emperor Hongzhi said excitedly: “Let’s go, follow me. Go to the Hanlin Academy immediately. Huh… This discussion is over. Wang Zuo has a taste for society and loyalty. I want to show him personally!”

“Slave… I obey

at this moment .

, without the slightest hesitation.

He was still shocked inside, and countless thoughts flashed through his poor mind.

It’s so terrible, so terrifying.

Surprisingly… unexpectedly… the water of the Yellow River is really clear.

Is there such a miracle in the world?

…………

Updates will gradually resume today. I’m so tired from running around these days. Thank you for your understanding.
