The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1576

[1576. Chapter 1497 The medicine cures the disease]

Jifan has no interest in how to grow food.

What he cares about is how many kilograms of grain can be produced per mu.

But Zhu Houzhao is completely contrary to him. He may be a little interested in the yield per mu, which after all is related to his performance.

But… what he likes more is the process of growing food.

This is a very interesting thing.

Any possible situation may happen in the middle, and how can he solve it.

What this tests is one’s patience, one’s adaptability, and one’s organizational ability.

It is precisely these that Zhu Houzhao, who has studied marching and fighting since childhood, has all of them.

He has mastered a set of effective methods, which are essentially interoperable.

Therefore, he dragged Fang Jifan to two experimental fields and kept introducing them: “Did you see it? The biggest feature of these two fields is that the rice seedlings are extremely dense when transplanted. Under normal circumstances, if the rice seedlings are transplanted too densely, it will easily cause the seedlings to grow It absorbs too few nutrients and is difficult to survive. Some seedlings are not suitable for close planting, but you see… the current growth is still gratifying… Lao Fang, my biggest hope now is in these two experimental fields. Others Yes, there are more or less problems.”

Fang Jifan nodded: “If it can really be done, it will be fine. From now on, His Royal Highness and his ministers will be more straight when they go out.”

Zhu Houzhao crossed his hands and said with confidence: “Don’t worry, if it doesn’t work this time, let’s find a way. What’s missing is time and money for things like this. As long as we manage enough, there’s nothing in this world that can’t be done. But… that Zhang Xin, always It’s very annoying to like to come here and point fingers…”

Fang Jifan said: “Your Highness, Zhang Xin is an expert in agriculture. This is a joint research, and his suggestions are also very important.”

Zhu Houzhao curled his lips in displeasure. , and finally said reluctantly: “Well, it’s fine if he just suggested it, but he is as stubborn as a cow, and that’s it, as for the matter of Jingcha, don’t bother me anymore for the time being, I’m A person who does big things.”

Fang Jifan thought to himself, the Jingcha is also a big thing.

Of course, he didn’t bother to say it.

After an inspection in the capital, many ministers were convicted, which suddenly gave the capital a somewhat sad atmosphere.

This also made Bing Jingtan Jing, who had been blatant in the past, become sneaky. Many owners of mansions began to restrain their children. They must not cause trouble outside, and must not allow others to get the handle.

The Beijing police are still snooping around.

But compared to before, it was countless times more difficult to collect evidence.

As Fang Jifan said, the devil is as tall as the Taoist. This evidence has become increasingly difficult to find. All the things that were blatant in the past have gone underground, and the things that used to cause public resentment on the streets have suddenly decreased a lot.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that the dirt lurking under the countertop has completely disappeared.

It just becomes more hidden.

In the past, petty officials dared to enter the shop directly and ask for money.

Now…there are a lot of rules.

Even if someone brings a gift to your door, you still have to be suspicious, for fear that there is some trap behind it.

And this time… is the real test for Jingcha.

But…this time the Beijing inspection also made Fang Jifan arouse public resentment.

In the past, you blew people up to the sky, but you didn’t blow me up after all, so you just cursed a few times.

In the past, you acted nonsense and defrauded us of our money to buy a house, but after all, the house can be used for living, and the price has increased. This is a business, one is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer.

But now…you are trying to dig out everyone’s roots.

Therefore, there are not a few people who impeach the Jingcha, and they can be said to be full of complaints.

This obviously put a lot of pressure on Emperor Hongzhi.

But Emperor Hongzhi remained unmoved, just a little depressed about it.

Emperor Hongzhi ordered Jin Yiwei to inquire about public opinion, but Xiao Jing did not dare to send the factory guard’s report for several days.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Xiao Jing and couldn’t help but said: “Xiao Banban, why is Jin Yiwei’s report so careless and perfunctory?”

Xiao Jing just lowered his head silently, not daring to say anything.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly and said calmly: “Did you hide anything from me?”

Xiao Jing quickly prostrated and said: “I will die for you.”

“You, a slave, dare to hide it from me?” Emperor Hongzhi glared at Xiao Jing with a look on his face. Ashen, scolded harshly.

Xiao Jing looked frightened, but hesitant: “Slave…Slave…”

Emperor Hongzhi said coldly with a cold face: “Get it!”

Xiao Jing pondered for a moment, and finally had to say: ” Obey.”

With that said, he had no choice but to go to Dongchang in person and take out a stack of reports.

Emperor Hongzhi took it. Most of them were reports from spying on Shilin.

Opening it casually, at this glance, although I was prepared in my heart, I couldn’t help but feel angry.

The Jingcha was almost compared to the path of King Li of Zhou Dynasty in “Historical Records of Zhou Dynasty”. There were all kinds of laughter and curses. On the surface, they were just scolding the Jingcha, but in fact, they were criticizing these Jingcha. They used all kinds of vilification, thinking that this was to exclude dissidents and that there was a big traitor in the government.

If you just think about it a little deeper, why is it that behind this, the current emperor is compared to King Zhou Li and Emperor Sui Yang?

Emperor Hongzhi’s face was gloomy, but he kept his expression.

There was no expression on his face, he just read the reports one by one patiently.

Scholars always hope to get together in the form of symposiums and poetry gatherings. When they are together, it is inevitable that there will be discussions.

And some of these discussions are even unsightly.

After reading them all, Emperor Hongzhi put these memorials aside with an expressionless face, and said calmly: “Do today’s scholars dare to speak like this?”

“Your Majesty…” Xiao Jing looked at it expressionlessly. Emperor Hongzhi couldn’t make up his mind and said tremblingly: “They have always been so bold and dared to say anything…”

Emperor Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief: “Hey… when I was not very wise and the people were suffering, They called me a benevolent king and a sage king, but when I worked hard to govern and the people’s lives were getting better and better, they regarded me as King Zhou Li and Emperor Yang of Sui, so let them go.”

Emperor Hongzhi looked indifferent .

look.

Otherwise, what can I do with these people?

They have a mouth, and the great thing about these people is that they always use the past to make fun of the present, and it is difficult for you to catch their words.

Simply… I had to let it go.

Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi was not too angry, Xiao Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

………

During the second inspection in Beijing, Chen Tianjin seemed very positive. He was carried on a stretcher, although his leg was really lame.

The imperial court has arrested several of the chief criminals and sentenced them to exile. As for other people involved in the matter, they have all been punished.

As for Chen Tianjin’s medical needs, they were all compensated by these people.

But Chen Tianjin still hasn’t forgiven his hatred. This leg is crippled. It will be a lifetime thing. Can he relieve his hatred after spending some medical expenses?

Other Beijing inspectors learned from Chen Tianjin’s lesson and each of them strengthened their own guards. Looking at Chen Tianjin again, Everyone took a deep breath.

It is a pity that there were only about 20 cases in the monthly Beijing inspection, which was quite different from the previous case of more than 300 cases.

Fang Jifan pulled Xiao Jing aside.

Xiao Jing didn’t expect that Duke Qi would want to talk to him privately, but he was quite flattered.

He looked at Fang Jifan and saw Fang Jifan saying: “It’s strange, why has this month passed without His Majesty summoning me?”

“This…” Xiao Jing looked at Fang Jifan deeply and said truthfully: “Your Majesty has been in a bad mood lately. Okay.”

Fang Jifan was relieved.

It turns out it’s not directed at me personally, that’s fine.

Fang Jifan showed a smile and said with a smile: “Your Majesty has always been in a bad mood. Why has he been in a particularly bad mood recently?”

Xiao Jing knew Fang Jifan’s ability clearly, and of course he did not dare to hide it at this time: “Your Majesty is urging me to ask for it.” The servant inquired about Shilin, so the factory guard had no choice but to provide a real report. He really didn’t dare to deceive you, but… Duke Qi thought he knew about this report when he handed it over. Those scholars… His Majesty read it and was unhappy. , but he still wanted to read it, so he submitted it to the report every day. After reading it, he felt even more worried. A month has passed…”

Fang Jifan thought in surprise that the emperor actually still has such a hobby. This is obviously self-abuse. , Fang Jifan never cares if others scold me, Fang Jifan, as long as he has the guts to scold me in front of me.

Either ignore these things, or simply arrest all these eccentric people, learn from the behavior of the First Emperor, burn books and entrap Confucians, and cut them off with a clean slate.

Xiao Jing frowned and continued: “Your Majesty has been very depressed recently. I’m worried, why don’t you ask a psychiatric doctor to take a look.”

Fang Jifan looked at Xiao Jing as if he was an idiot: “Bullshit. Do you think I’m stupid and want to harm me?”

Xiao Jing’s expression changed and he waved his hands quickly.

Fang Jifan held his chin, thought for a moment, squinted his eyes and said, “But… the heart medicine still needs the heart medicine. I have a way, and the preservation effect is remarkable.”

“What way?” Xiao Jing’s eyes lit up.

Fang Jifan sneered at him: “Why are you telling me so that you can take credit and reward me? You bitch, you dare to take my credit and want to go to heaven?”

Xiao Jing felt that communicating with people like Fang Jifan was really a big deal. Something fatal.

Taking a deep breath, not caring about it, and being calm, he said: “Tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow!” Fang Jifan said firmly: “We’ll see, tomorrow I will make His Majesty laugh and keep him happy for a month, just in time I will be here again I found a lot of people with the surname Fang, and I almost have a place to be granted a household. “

Xiao Jing: “…”

It’s new that Daming can still find people with the surname Fang.

“Okay, after this slave returns, I will tell your Majesty the good news. I’ll wait for your prescription to come and give you a high-five?”

Fang Jifan just said: “Get out of here!”
