The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1748
[1748. Chapter 1662 Announcement]
Liu Yi wants to die.
For a moment, he even wanted to smash his head on the ground several times.
But soon, he thought again…
Fang Jifan, this bitch, was so cruel and ruthless. Although he died, the whole family did not have to go to Luzon, but according to this man’s vengeful nature, he was afraid that his wife and children would also not be able to go to Luzon. There will be no peace, who knows what we will face then.
People like Liu Yi are actually not afraid of the emperor at all.
After all… At this stage, although he is not a famous minister, as long as he does not make any big mistakes, even if it displeases the emperor, he will retire from office, retire and return to his hometown to live in his old age.
Besides, the emperor also wanted to lose face, so he would not deliberately embarrass a minister.
But he is afraid of people like Fang Jifan. For such a person, you never know what crazy things Fang Jifan, a piece of shit, can do and what methods he will use against you.
Emperor Hongzhi had no intention of attacking Liu Yi.
I just simply felt that instead of staying in Nanjing and talking nonsense, Liu Yi might as well be sent to Luzon, at least… out of sight, out of mind.
In addition, Fang Jifan was right. Didn’t those gentry have a very good relationship with Liu Yi? Since they cherish each other, then… it would be great to have Liu Yi as Luzon’s chief envoy. Anyway, Luzon’s The immigrants were all gentry and no one else. Didn’t Liu Yi love the people like his own children?
For the gentry, they knew Liu Yi’s name after all. Liu Yi had set an example, and many of them were closely related to Liu Yi. So… having Liu Yi there would give them some peace of mind.
What Emperor Hongzhi wanted to do was to be the king and father of the world. Although this hit the gentry hard, it did not mean that he regarded the gentry as aliens. As long as the gentry did not affect his grand strategy, he should be given Those who are cared for need to be cared for.
Emperor Hongzhi said: “This proposal of succession is a great relief for me, gentlemen.”
He looked at the Nanjing officials: “What do you think?”
“…”
Everyone was silent at first. What else can be done at this time? , is it possible to go against the Duke of Qi? But… no one wants to go to Luzon!
Emperor Hongzhi was very happy with everyone’s silence, and said with a smile: “It seems that all the ministers have no objections to this… Well, for the person who committed suicide by hanging from the beam, send someone to comfort him. After all, he is dead and should not be underestimated.” , his family was young, and they also gave him some care. As for the funeral, he ordered the local government to handle it as appropriate. “
After Emperor Hongzhi said this, it was agreed that he would go to rest after saying that he had been tired for a lifetime.
Fang Jifan went out with the six ministers.
Liu Yi’s face was ashen, all thoughts were burning, and his heart was clogged with panic. Everyone else couldn’t help but look at Liu Yi sympathetically.
Fang Jifan was very angry. As soon as he arrived, there were already hundreds of guards waiting outside, shouting for him to get on the bus.
At this moment, behind Fang Jifan, Liu Yi called out: “Duke Qi… Duke Qi…”
Fang Jifan stopped and turned around and said, “What’s the matter?”
Liu Yi stepped forward and said, “Can you ask Duke Qi to report it to your majesty?” I went to him to beg for mercy and let Xiaguan stay in Nanjing. Xiaguan… his family has a small amount of money, at least three to five thousand taels… but he still hopes that the Duke of Qi… “
At this point, Liu Yi has no master.
Fang Jifan’s expression suddenly changed, his eyes widened, and he shouted sternly: “You’re like a dog, you still want to bribe me? Not to mention three to five thousand taels, but six thousand or seven thousand taels. I, Fang Jifan, can’t even look at it.” Look, we are the successors of the vassal vassal, and we are dedicated to serving the people of the world. Do you, a bitch, use these things to insult me? So many people go to Luzon, why can’t you, Liu Yi, as an official of the imperial court? Are you greedy for life and afraid of death? What does the court want from you? Get out of here and don’t let me see you again in this life, let alone hear these words about your family’s little wealth, or I will break your legs. Don’t think that you are a big deal because you are a minister. I have a great sense of righteousness in my body, so what if I beat you to death
?
After boarding the car, he was still aggrieved. The place where Fang Jifan lived was right next to Xiangguo Temple. There was a house purchased by the Fang family. To be honest, Fang Jifan himself couldn’t even remember how many houses the Fang family owned. , and only when I arrive in Nanjing can I barely remember that I have my own house here.
After walking for a while, Fang Jifan saw a familiar figure on the carriage. People were pointing around him. This man was unkempt, covered in blood, and looked very scary.
This is…
Fang Jifan immediately asked someone to stop the car, hurried down, walked to the crowd, and kicked the onlookers in front of him.
The crowded crowd suddenly became confused, and the person who was kicked turned around fiercely: “Who, who dares to kick…”
Dozens of guards behind Fang Jifan immediately rushed out and shouted: “The Duke of Qi is here, no one else is waiting to retreat.” “Exit.”
The man’s words stopped suddenly, and he looked around in confusion. After being silent, he quickly got into the crowd. The other spectators had already disappeared.
Fang Jifan seemed a little embarrassed. He didn’t like someone calling his name in public. After all, Fang Jifan was not someone who liked to use his name to disturb people.
But here, only the ragged man remained.
This man just stood there in a daze, looking at Fang Jifan in a daze. Countless people were flying past in front of his eyes, and his eyeballs did not move or waver.
Fang Jifan quickly stepped forward and hugged the ragged man: “Eunuch Xiao, you are still alive. It’s great, it’s great. It’s good that you are alive. I think about you day and night, and I miss you every day.” Ah…”
Xiao Jing trembled, and his cloudy eyes seemed to become a little clearer.
After being shouted out by Fang Jifan, countless images instantly flooded into his numb mind.
It was the Duke of Qi…it was the Duke of Qi…
Xiao Jing was moved to tears.
This is how people are. In this most difficult moment, when you meet any old friend, your emotions will continue to amplify.
Even before, everyone had some intrigues with each other and occasionally had some dissatisfaction, but at this moment, Xiao Jing only had the image of Fang Jifan helping the old man cross the road in his mind, let alone a person who had experienced life and death.
Xiao Jing suddenly got into Fang Jifan’s arms and cried.
A sobbing voice said: “Yes, yes, I am still alive. Fortunately, I am still alive. We…our lives are so miserable. Your Majesty and Duke Qi just left, and the inn was robbed. We…we…”
He snorted desperately, but saliva flowed out from the corner of his mouth, eyes closed, looking like he couldn’t bear to look back, and he pulled Fang Jifan, who was beginning to dislike him, and continued: “Qi Guogong… Duke Guo of Qi… They tortured me for countless days and nights. I died once, and they pulled me back again. Then they continued to beat me to death. It couldn’t be better to see Duke Guo Qi… Where is the emperor? Is the emperor okay? We want to see the emperor. We want to see the emperor. “
Fang Jifan immediately ordered people to put Xiao Jing in the carriage and let the carriage carry Xiao Jing first. He did not forget to comfort him: “Don’t worry, he will be there soon.” It can be seen that the emperor is here, Eunuch Xiao, don’t be afraid, good times are coming. You can rest assured in the car and you will be there soon. “
Then, Fang Jifan got out of the car quickly and told the coachman: “Take more detours.” “
So, I got on my horse and went ahead in a hurry.
……
“Your Majesty… Your Majesty… I am overjoyed…” Fang Jifan left and returned excitedly: “Eunuch Xiao, he… is still alive.”
Emperor Hongzhi was wearing clothes and reviewing memorials. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but The dragon’s body trembled.
He raised his head in astonishment and looked at Fang Jifan who had rushed in. The ink pen in his hand fell down with a bang, and then he said in surprise: “Is he still alive?”
Fang Jifan then said: “Yes, he is still alive, but he is covered with bruises. Hey…er I felt really sorry when I saw him. When I found him, he was surrounded by many people with malicious intentions. I don’t know if there were any thieves. Your Majesty also knows that I have always acted bravely when seeing justice, and when I saw it was Eunuch Xiao, I didn’t say anything. After saying that, he rushed forward and kicked those people with bad intentions away, and then he saved Eunuch Xiao. Now is an emergency, and there are people with evil intentions everywhere. If I hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Eunuch
Xiao… was seriously injured. I was afraid that he would not be able to bear the bumps, so I asked him to lie down in the carriage. He would be arriving soon. I came to give His Majesty the good news first, so that His Majesty would not miss him.
Take a breath of cool air.
His lips twitched and he murmured: “Still alive.”
What Emperor Hongzhi regretted most during this visit to Jiangnan was that Xiao Jing was gone.
Emperor Hongzhi had almost determined that Xiao Jing would definitely die.
This person has been watching him grow up for several dynasties, even during the Chenghua period. The emotion between master and servant is far beyond ordinary people.
What’s more, compared to other eunuchs, Xiao Jing still had his duty, but he had worked hard all his life. Who would have thought that when he got old, he would be killed by thieves before he could truly enjoy the blessings with him. This was a great regret for Emperor Hongzhi. ah.
And now I know… Xiao Jing is still alive…
“God bless you.” Emperor Hongzhi perked up and said slightly excitedly: “Okay, great, successor…”
Emperor Hongzhi’s face was bright and he was energetic. Yiyi said, “I’m sorry for you this time. You must have contributed a lot. Hurry, hurry…call the doctor first. I’ll take a look at him, and then ask the doctor to treat his injury immediately in this palace. This time…he was injured.” It must have been a lot of suffering, and we encountered danger along the way? These rebellious officials, huh, they didn’t dare to act arrogantly in front of me, but they still wanted to murder Xiao Banpan?”
Fang Jifan sighed and said, “My son .
I can’t guarantee that they are just thieves, maybe they are just watching the fun. I am an honest person, and I don’t dare to take credit for it. Your Majesty said that the credit must be taken away. It is really a shame for me, and I can’t bear it. “
So Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan with an appreciative look: “At such a young age, you know you can’t take credit and be arrogant? Don’t be humble anymore. I know your temperament well.”
