The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1563

[1563. Chapter 1485 Long Yan is furious]

. The person who came was none other than Chen Zhong.

Chen Zhong took medicine, took a short rest, and then was sent over.

After being imprisoned, and then being sent here, Chen Zhong seemed extremely cautious.

The power of God is unpredictable.

It had only been a few days, but when the emperor first saw him and turned around, someone threw him into the prison and beat him all over.

Entering the palace all the way made him tremble with fear. Although the newly built Daming Palace was magnificent and majestic, in his eyes, it was like a mountain. This powerful sense of oppression weighed down his whole body. Out of breath.

When he entered Fengtian Hall, Chen Zhong’s legs no longer obeyed his command.

He boldly raised his head and saw Emperor Hongzhi’s face clearly.

This is a familiar person.

But… that gentle man with a nice smile a few days ago is now nothing more than a savage beast in Chen Zhong’s eyes.

…

and Emperor Hongzhi stood there.

He fell silent.

Then…

Emperor Hongzhi understood everything.

Everything… is because of Chen Zhong.

Even though he had changed into new clothes, Emperor Hongzhi also understood that this man had experienced severe torture.

…

The ministers all looked expressionless as they watched the old pawn come in.

Is this Fang Jifan’s uncle?

Damn it…

The most admirable thing about this dog-like thing named Fang is that, except for the three generations of Fang Jifan’s ancestors and grandchildren, all his relatives have either packed up and gone to Huanghuangzhou, or… they are just like in front of them. This person is like this.

But what does such an ant-like figure have to do with today’s matter?

…

Jiang Yan had already looked away, showing disdain.

He had never seen this old pawn before. When the report was first reported, he just wrote and issued an official document.

Such unruly people will be beaten if they are beaten.

Fang Jifan actually used one such unscrupulous person as an excuse, huh… Even if there are thousands of such unscrupulous people, can they be as good as me?

Jiang Yan is definitely not arrogant to have such an idea.

You must know that the noble thoughts of scholar-bureaucrats have long been ingrained. They have always regarded ordinary people as ignorant and unruly people.

People with such ideas became very popular, especially in the middle of the Ming Dynasty when land annexation was particularly serious.

…

Emperor Hongzhi was surprised, with countless thoughts popping up in his mind.

Is it because of this person?

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath.

Then, the emperor began to slowly walk down the jade steps.

Everyone no longer paid attention to Chen Zhong, but all their eyes fell on the emperor.

Emperor Hongzhi stepped off the Jinluan, his eyes still falling on Chen Zhong.

Chen Zhong already clicked and fell to the ground, trembling slightly, perhaps because of fear, his whole body was shivering.

Emperor Hongzhi stepped closer and finally saw Chen Zhong more clearly.

Sure enough, the scars on Chen Zhong’s body were shocking. There was even flesh on the exposed palms. Even though they were treated with medicine, it was still unbearable to look at.

Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes.

The scene that happened a few days ago came to mind.

Then, he walked quickly to Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan looked like he was asking for his own fault and remained silent.

Under the astonished gazes of everyone, Emperor Hongzhi bent down and held Fang Jifan’s arms.

“…”

The officials looked at His Majesty intently, a little confused.

Emperor Hongzhi then said: “Jifan, you worked hard all day and night yesterday, but you are fine.”

“…”

Suddenly, Fengtian Palace seemed to explode.

Fang Jifan is a sinner.

Why did you ask him if it was okay?

Jiang Yan was about to spit out blood.

You should ask me this question. You should ask me. My family has been destroyed. My family is gone. My son is still dying and his life and death are uncertain.

The people in the palace still held their breath, not daring to breathe out, and continued to stare at Emperor Hongzhi and Fang Jifan.

But he heard Fang Jifan say: “The guilty minister is reporting back to your majesty. My son is fine. It’s just that his arms are a little sore now and his palms hurt a little.”

Emperor Hongzhi said in surprise: “Who hurt you? Let me see.”

Fang Jifan turned out his own palm.

Not to mention, this palm is a bit red.

Emperor Hongzhi said: “Let the female hospital take a look at you later. Don’t neglect it just because it is a minor injury.” Fang Jifan said: “Your Majesty is so kind and generous, my dear minister…”

Emperor Hongzhi pressed his hand and said: “You have to accept it.

“

If you’re hurt, just save some energy.”

“Oh.” Fang Jifan nodded simply.

Emperor Hongzhi stood up straight, put his hands behind his back, and continued: “Come here, bring me a brocade pier.”

After hearing this, the eunuch quickly brought a brocade pier, originally intended to be placed next to Fang Jifan.

Emperor Hongzhi pointed at Chen Zhong: “Give him a seat.”

The eunuch was stunned and almost lost his strength while holding Jin Dun’s hand.

The white officials were immediately in an uproar.

What’s going on?

Jiang Yan’s face was even more miserable, and he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

Jindun put it down.

Everyone was even more surprised. Emperor Hongzhi personally helped Chen Zhong up and led him to sit down.

Chen Zhong was embarrassed.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the scars on his body and said, “Bring another Jindun.”

Jindun moved in, and Emperor Hongzhi sat opposite Chen Zhong in front of everyone.

Emperor Hongzhi stared at Chen Zhong.

This move relieved Chen Zhong of his doubts.

However, looking at Emperor Hongzhi in full robes, he was still a little timid and did not dare to raise his head to look into Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes.

After that, Emperor Hongzhi said, “Tell me why they want to take you.”

Chen Zhong looked around uneasily.

He pursed his dry lips, and in his cloudy eyes, the fear gradually dissipated, and Chen Zhongcai said cautiously: “Originally, the money has been withdrawn, but the government suddenly sent another message, saying… that it wanted to take the money back, Your Majesty. …This is the coffin book of the villain. After hearing the news, everyone in the streets and neighbors who had refunded the money went crazy. The villain… the villain… was greedy in his heart. Nian… I really couldn’t bear to return the money. If I withdraw the money, I’m afraid I’ll never get it back, so like everyone else, I pretended not to know about it.”

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, knowing very well that the nine taels of silver meant a lot to Chen. Loyalty means something.

Chen Zhong added: “Then people from the government came, saying that they had received imperial orders, that is, orders from His Majesty the Emperor. When I heard that it was an order from Your Majesty, I was extremely surprised, so I told them, Your Majesty… …I saw it a few days ago, how could His Majesty give such an order? This… this must be a mistake.”

When he heard that this was the emperor’s order, a flash of light flashed in Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes. Murderous intent.

He patiently said, “What’s next?”

“Then they said that the common people…the common people deceived the public with their evil words, saying that they were good at telling the affairs of the palace, and that I was falsely passing on the emperor’s edicts, saying In order to scare the monkeys, they captured me and tortured me day and night, Your Majesty… Your Majesty…” Chen Zhong burst into tears, and he could no longer speak the rest of his words, his mouth was trembling, and he was crying.

Huh…

Emperor Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

He nodded: “Okay, I believe you. With what you said, I understand what’s going on. Jifan…”

Fang Jifan said, “My son is here.”

Emperor Hongzhi stood up from the Jindun. : “You still remember what I said back then.”

“Remember.” Fang Jifan said sternly: “Your Majesty once said that Chen Zhong was a great contributor to our Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, his life is miserable. Your Majesty will go to visit him in three months. If he is not doing well, I will chop off Erchen’s head.”

Emperor Hongzhi smiled, but his smile was sinister: “I did say that.”

“So, Erchen heard that Chen. After Zhong was released from prison, he remembered His Majesty’s instructions and thought to himself, if Chen Zhong was bullied to this extent, if something went wrong, wouldn’t his head be beheaded anyway, so he would simply be beaten to death? Jiang Yan is a bitch.”

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: “It makes sense. I would do the same thing, but I heard that you have sent troops.”

Fang Jifan said, “Your Majesty can investigate. , They are all students of Erchen, and they are all scholars. It is true that they carry weapons, but according to the ancestral law, students can wear weapons, although it is not fashionable now. “

Emperor Hongzhi said: “Well, this method. , It has indeed been true for a long time. So… I heard that you still claimed that you were Wang Fa?”

Fang Jifan said: “At that time, I was so angry that I suddenly felt like the world was spinning. I don’t remember saying that, even if I heard it. I said it might be because of a brain disease.

“Since you have a brain disease, you should take good care of your body and don’t get angry easily.” Emperor Hongzhi said with concern.

Fang Jifan nodded seriously and said: “Yes, I must maintain a peaceful mind in the future. Even if the sky is falling, you must always smile.”

All the ministers were stunned for a while.

Damn…is this okay?

When Jiang Yan heard this, his heart sank to the bottom, so… let’s forget it?

He was a little confused, and then burst into tears: “Your Majesty… Your Majesty… Fang Jifan, he is treason… this is conspiracy …”

Speaking of the word “mou”.

Emperor Hongzhi’s expression changed.

His eyes fell on the wrench in Zhu Houzhao’s hand, and then he stepped forward and grabbed it.

Zhu Houzhao’s face turned pale with fright. In the blink of an eye, he saw the wrench falling into his father’s hand. He was so frightened that he immediately squatted down, hugged his head, and muttered: “I don’t dare anymore… I don’t dare…”

The wrench did not fall. Zhu Houzhao’s head.

But there was a bang…

directly hitting Jiang Yan’s forehead.

Boom…

Jiang Yan paused, and the severe pain on his forehead instantly spread throughout his body. His body trembled as if he was electrocuted.

The forehead immediately began to bruise and blood blisters appeared.

With his numb eyes, he saw that Emperor Hongzhi had a ferocious face. He had never thought that the always kind emperor had such a side.

Emperor Hongzhi roared loudly: “Can I still tolerate you? I am so kind to people like you, but I didn’t expect you to be a jackal!”

Jiang Yan’s pupils shrank and he looked at Emperor Hongzhi in disbelief. At this moment, the emperor looked like a hero. lion!
