The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1512
[1512. Chapter 1436 The Holy Emperor]
This sudden news was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone.
The water of the Yellow River is clear.
They firmly believed that neither Fang Jifan nor Li Chaowen were Da Luo Jinxian.
How could they do it and make the Yellow River clear?
In this world, apart from God, probably no one can do this.
But now, the water of the Yellow River is clear…
Wang Zuo’s face was miserable.
But soon, he adjusted.
Because…he doesn’t believe it.
How can we say that the water of the Yellow River is clear?
He prostrated on the ground and stretched his neck. He was still dripping with cold sweat, but he emboldened his courage: “Your Majesty, since ancient times, false reports of auspiciousness have been repeatedly banned. Your Majesty… this must be… someone must be making false reports…”
Huh…
With one word, many people came back to their senses.
Yes, what goes up is good, but what goes down is effective.
The so-called clear water in the Yellow River has not been seen by everyone present.
In this case, who knows whether this was done intentionally by the local officials who saw the emperor wanting to be a saint?
Emperor Hongzhi looked at it calmly. Looking at Wang Zuo and everyone who was full of doubts.
Emperor Hongzhi said calmly: “So… the Qing family doesn’t want to believe it? Then, the Qing family won’t believe what Magistrate Mengjin said, and then you don’t believe the report from the Chief Envoy of Shanxi? Shaanxi Chief Minister Where are the chief envoys? And the chief envoys of Henan and the chief envoys of Shandong?”
Emperor Hongzhi named several chief envoys in succession.
After hearing this, Wang Zuo’s face became even more ugly.
These are all provinces where the Yellow River flows.
The four chief envoys, if the Yellow River flood incident really happened, would report it immediately.
This is the Chief Envoy, and the people who report are also governors. The Chief Envoy is a feudal official at this level.
There may be one or two of these people who want to call a deer a horse, but how can everyone say the same thing? Even the emperor would not be able to force them to do such a thing.
At least as far as he knew, Wu Han, the chief envoy of Henan, was a man of great character. When he and Wu Han were in the Hanlin Academy together, Wu Han was famous for his loyalty and uprightness. He knew Wu Han’s temperament best.
Such a person will never cheat.
Emperor Hongzhi continued to look at Wang Zuo with a smile and said: “In addition, there are thirty-seven auspicious reports from prefectures and counties. This is just the beginning. I think there will be many more auspicious reports sent in the future. Wang Qing family, could it be that all the local officials and feudal officials in the world are flattering and cheating? In this world, only the Wang Qing family is strong and strong? “
Emperor Hongzhi said this with a smile on his lips, but this The words obviously have a bit of heart-wrenching meaning.
“Your Majesty…I…” Wang Zuo suddenly seemed to be unable to find the words.
For a moment, Emperor Hongzhi’s face became stern, he looked straight at Wang Zuo and said, “Now, has the Qing family had enough trouble?”
Wang Zuo kowtowed quickly, buried his head on the ground, and was speechless.
He knew very well… When the clear water of the Yellow River became a fact, his debates in the past few days, no matter how wonderful they were, turned into a joke in the blink of an eye.
He was so distraught that he didn’t know what to say.
All the Hanlin officials were shocked and couldn’t help but look at Li Chaowen in horror.
Is this Mr. Li really able to understand the secrets of heaven?
At this moment, everyone remembered that he had made great achievements by praying for rain, and now, he can predict even the clear water of the Yellow River.
Li Chaowen had a faint smile on his face, very reserved.
Emperor Hongzhi said sharply again: “Now, what should Wang Qing’s family say?”
After the words fell, before Wang Zuo could respond…
someone heard a loud voice saying: “Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty.” God has appointed you to be among the sages. Your Majesty has been in office for ten years. He manages everything every day and broadcasts your benevolence and righteousness. All the people in the world are blessed by your Majesty’s rain and dew. This has never happened before in the ages. I have the honor to accompany the Holy Emperor. I am truly an ancestor. Being virtuous is the blessing of three lifetimes. Your Majesty’s holy name spreads far and wide, reaches your heart all over the world, and brings great blessings to the sky. This is the blessing of billions of subjects in the world… I can’t help but shout three times, long live my emperor, my emperor. Long live my emperor!”
Emperor Hongzhi looked very excited.
A strange feeling arose in his heart. Is this really God’s will?
If so, then all these years of hard work will be in vain.
After Fang Jifan bowed down.
The others looked at each other.
This is so disgusting!
But if this is really destiny, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal.
No one was stupid, so everyone prostrated themselves.
“Long live my emperor.”
Listening to the shocking voice, Wang Zuo seemed to have been greatly insulted. At this moment, his heart felt cold.
Then, he couldn’t help but feel fear.
The current situation and the nature of what he did have changed.
Before, it could be said that he argued with reason and was strong-willed, but now… in the eyes of others, everything he did was clearly messy and malicious.
He grimaced and kowtowed: “Long live your Majesty.”
Emperor Hongzhi snorted coldly and looked at Wang Zuo.
Looks like I’ll take care of you later.
Immediately, Emperor Hongzhi smiled and looked at Li Chaowen: “How did the Li Qing family know that the water in the Yellow River was going to be clear?”
This is really a good question.
Everyone pricked up their ears and wanted to hear Li Chaowen’s answer.
However, Li Chaowen only smiled slightly, still maintaining his celestial spirit, giving people a sense of mystery and unpredictability: “Your Majesty, this is a secret from heaven, and the secret must not be leaked.”
Emperor Hongzhi was stunned for a moment, and then he became happy.
Yes, God’s business, how can we break the casserole and get to the bottom of it?
Only Li Chaowen’s heart was stirred up, and he was more excited than everyone here.
My uncle is really a living god. I really admire his uncle more and more. This matter of inviting water from the Yellow River is really what my uncle told me.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at his uncle, and saw that his uncle was happy and fawning over the emperor. He looked… despicable, shameless, petty, and flattering. But…
Li Chaowen felt even more shocked. His uncle could actually understand the secrets of heaven, but he still pretended to be flattering. This… was even more unfathomable and terrifying.
Because a person like Uncle Master, who is such an accomplished person, naturally does not have to act like this.
The only possibility is that the uncle has understood the natural principles of the three realms, but he is hiding in the city and playing with the world.
This kind of sentiment is the most valuable.
At this moment, Li Chaowen could only wish to bow down to Fang Jifan with a puff, hold his uncle, a real master in his arms, and call him daddy.
He suddenly remembered that Longquan Temple had recently received a lot of land donated by pilgrims, as well as various businesses, and had earned a lot of money. I wonder if his uncle is interested in this. He should give it to his uncle and let him do this. It’s only for those who have the right to enjoy it.
In fact…the water of the Yellow River is clear, which is not the so-called secret of heaven.
The water in the Yellow River becomes clear, which has happened many times in history.
In his previous life, Fang Jifan only saw the records that the Yellow River would clear up this year from county and prefectural annals.
Three days ago, the water in the Yellow River would become clear, so Fang Jifan took advantage of the situation and borrowed Li Chaowen’s words to speak out.
Fang Jifan has always promoted positive energy and three views, and he disdains using feudal superstition to deceive others.
Therefore, Li Chaowen naturally took care of this matter.
Emperor Hongzhi treated Li Chaowen a lot more politely.
I was quite suspicious of this person before, but now I know that this person is unfathomable.
What’s more, it’s good that the emperor is a saint. At least a lot of rumors have been eliminated. Emperor Hongzhi is very interested in this. Li Chaowen has really made great contributions.
He looked at Li Chaowen with a smile, and said gently: “Li Qing’s family, you have studied the heavens and observed the celestial phenomena. God has really predicted that I am a saint.”
Li Chaowen still looked calm and composed, and said: “This article is a saint. Yes, it is indeed a sign from God. How dare I talk nonsense? But…”
After mentioning the word “but”, everyone stared at Li Chaowen motionlessly, wanting to know what happened next. What means.
But I heard Li Chaowen write lightly: “But this celestial phenomenon is very strange. In addition to the dazzling emperor’s heart, there are actually two stars, which are very dazzling. I tried hard to understand it, but I can understand it slightly, but I don’t know whether to talk about it or not.” “
Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes suddenly brightened, and his interest increased: “Tell me more about it.”
Li Chaowen said, “I’m afraid it will make me laugh.”
Li Chaowen still seemed very reserved and reserved, but… it
was a joke.
Now you, Li Chaowen, are a true god, not to mention the emperor. With all the civil and military officials in this dynasty and all the people in the world, who would doubt your words, and even make fun of you for saying them generously?
Fang Jifan had to say that this Li Chaowen was no ordinary pretender!
“But it doesn’t matter.”
Emperor Hongzhi only thought that Li Chaowen was being polite and treated Li Chaowen with a higher regard.
There are very few people like this who are both capable and knowledgeable and can maintain such a humble attitude.
Li Chaowen bowed and said: “Your Majesty, judging from the celestial phenomena, there are actually two little saints coming out around your Majesty, called Yasheng. According to my observation, one of them is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the second one, It’s the Duke of Qi…”
After the words fell…
Wang Zuo, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly made a pop sound and a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
Damn it…
the prince…the Duke of Qi…
his majesty is a saint, that’s all.
Pinch your nose and admit it.
Turning around, Fang Jifan and the prince, those two… notorious guys, they… had also become saints.
If Emperor Hongzhi is said to be a saint, it is a heavy blow to Wang Zuo, but what Li Chaowen said next is like being beaten with a wrench for several hours. Wang Zuo can no longer bear it, and his blood is rising. His eyes turned black, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out, like a spray, and blood splattered from his mouth in large mouthfuls.
He… hates it.
Oh my god, what are you doing?
His body was crumbling, blood spurted out, and his head fell to the ground weakly with a snap, like a deflated rubber ball.
