The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 618

[618.Chapter 598 This Qilin is also]

Fang Jifan always has the ability to find opportunities to liven up the atmosphere.

This may be innate.

Yang Tinghe left the ball. For some people, this is a bit sad, as the rabbit dies and the fox is sad.

But for Fang Jifan, it was a great good thing. Look, didn’t we agree that in the eyes of Qingliu officials, fame and wealth are just clouds? Now it is really a cloud, the reputation is ruined, the fame is gone, and the salary is gone. It can be regarded as coming naked and leaving naked, seeking benevolence and getting benevolence.

After praising him, Emperor Hongzhi stared at Zhu Houzhao. He suddenly realized a problem. He was a prince who was not favored by others among the scholars, but he had such a great reputation among the real people?

To the point where he didn’t know Yao and Shun, but only knew the prince?

He let out a long breath, this is his son, and he always dislikes him in various ways. Every now and then, someone comes to accuse the prince of ridiculous things, but who knows that I am not as good as him.

This is a complex emotion, but in the end, it is still occupied by joy.

“Prince…”

“My son is here.”

Zhu Houzhao was very happy.

He felt that his father’s voice was trembling.

Looking up, he saw that his father’s nose was a little red.

I’m crying, there is no future.

But for no reason, Zhu Houzhao also felt sad.

Once upon a time, I was always treated like a child. My father was either disappointed with me or scolded me. Today, it happened to open his eyes to the power of my prince.

Not easy.

It’s really not easy.

Zhu Houzhao couldn’t help but glanced at Fang Jifan from the corner of his eye. Lao Fang was still good. Without Lao Fang, there would be no Xishan, no Zhenguo Mansion, no academy, no field guards, and no preparations. Japanese guard and flying ball guard; this guy…forget it, I cut the account of this palace, just write it off in one stroke, and clear both sides.

Emperor Hongzhi pointed at Zhu Houzhao: “Everyone talks about Yao and Shun, but Yao and Shun were so long ago that the people’s eyes are brighter than yours. Of course, the prince should not compare himself to Yao and Shun, but Liu Jie counted many people and went deep into the people. They are In my opinion, the one who can convince everyone is Yao and Shun; the one who can bring peace to the world is Yao and Shun; the one who can feed and clothe the people and educate their children is naturally Yao and Shun. ! Since the Yan and Huang Dynasties, all the ancient sage kings have loved the people and made the people rich, and the people naturally regard him as their heart.”

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: “I heard Liu Wuliu’s words, and I felt sorry for you. Here we are talking about Yao and Shun, but all Liu Wuliu thinks about is just living. Why? It is precisely because you and I have talked so much about Yao and Shun that we talk about Yao and Shun all the time, but forget the essence of Yao and Shun. “The Doctrine of the Mean” says: A saint’s practice is close to benevolence.” This is why

all officials are silent.

Those who had just spoken plausibly buried their heads in the sand obediently, but at this time they would never dare to come out and refute.

Emperor Hongzhi pointed at Zhu Houzhao: “The prince is my Lin’er. It is the blessing of my ancestors and the blessing of all the people in the world to have this son!”

As soon as he said this.

This is the final word.

Whether the prince was Yao or Shun, we don’t care for the moment, but at least, what the prince respected was the behavior of Yao and Shun, and he was a learner of Yao and Shun. At the same time, he also made achievements.

Therefore, Emperor Hongzhi said that the prince has been upgraded from a naughty son to a Lin’er, which is equivalent to upgrading a tattered bronze sword to an epic bronze sword.

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he was immediately moved.

I have never received such a high praise in my life. My eyes were red and tears were streaming down my face. I raised my head quickly. He was a proud man and a man. How could he shed tears in front of everyone?

Emperor Hongzhi was quite touched: “The Dingyuan Marquis assists the Crown Prince, and his contribution is also indispensable. This son…” Emperor Hongzhi smiled. This time, he was completely relieved. It was a bit unreasonable to arrange the Crown Prince next to Shang Shang to succeed the vassal. Those who take risks will become more and more convinced of their decision, but occasionally, they will still be worried.

Now, there was no doubt anymore. Emperor Hongzhi said: “Fang Jifan, come up…”

Fang Jifan was much more humble than Zhu Houzhao, and said with a straight face: “Your Majesty…”

Emperor Hongzhi pressed his hand to signal Fang Jifan to shut up, and then said: “This is also my Qilin son.”

Fang Jifan said, my father had nothing to say.

Of course, the Qilin’er here has other metaphors.

It’s probably because this child has promise, well, in my eyes, so he is like my son.

The ministers were silent and showed no reaction.

For many Qingliu people, whatever you surnamed Zhu and Fang said today are reasonable. I accept everything you say. This time it is a real admission of defeat. After all, no matter how powerful your tongue is, no matter how good you are at quoting scriptures, you can follow behind you. Do you want tens of thousands of Liu Wuliu’s people to debate? Everyone will drown you with their spit.

Zhu Houzhao was very emotional, and Fang Jifan also found it very difficult. He had originally asked Queen Zhang to be his aunt, but later he forgot about it. The main reason was that he did not want to recognize his relatives. He felt that Her Highness the Princess was a good person. Although her cousin was It is considered the mainstream in this era. The so-called good news does not go to outsiders, but for Fang Jifan, he still feels a little uncomfortable. After all, our Fang Jifan is a person with very upright views.

Therefore, he rarely mentioned this matter, and was even a little afraid that Queen Zhang would think of it.

Unexpectedly… The emperor is very realistic. He usually calls you Fang Qing’s family. When he sees that you have done something good, he immediately becomes a little darling or a unicorn.

Fang Jifan decided to be modest and clear his throat.

But Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: “How will the prince and Fang Qing plan to arrange the arrangements for hundreds of thousands of people here this time?”

“…”

Zhu Houzhao was stunned and held back his tears.

He looked at Fang Jifan strangely.

Fang Jifan was confused, what are you looking at?

The two looked at each other.

Emperor Hongzhi said with a smile: “Why, you stopped talking? You still want to hide your secrets?”

Zhu Houzhao: “…”

Fang Jifan said to himself, at that time, I only thought about digging holes, not burying people.

There’s something not quite right about the atmosphere.

Zhu Houzhao coughed and said: “Father, the Zhenguo government has recruited a thousand villagers, and it has been made public to the world, but I never thought that the people would be so enthusiastic, and hundreds of thousands of people came, I… I… I… “Zhu Houzhao began to wipe his sweat and winked at Fang Jifan desperately.

Fang Jifan was desperate inside and pretended not to see it.

Emperor Hongzhi’s smile gradually disappeared: “Only a thousand households are recruited, so what should we do with these hundreds of thousands of people? They come here in admiration and full of hope. Do you know how difficult it is to trek all the way? What’s even more terrifying is , once desperate, what will be the consequences?”

Zhu Houzhao: “…”

Emperor Hongzhi glared at Zhu Houzhao: “It is absolutely impossible to recruit only one thousand households. Let’s recruit five thousand households, and the rest of the people will also be recruited. Give them hope, record their names, register them, and tell them that they may not be able to digest so much this year, but if they come again next year, those who register today will have priority in collecting food for all refugees. , and the travel expenses for demobilization, they must not starve along the way. If someone comes here, they may delay their farming work, and they must be compensated. Didn’t you say that they will farm outside the pass? “What is the effect of farming outside the pass?”

Fang Jifan lamented in his heart. This is all money. This is all about using money to do good deeds. The problem is, the prince is a poor man, how can he squeeze out any oil from him? This is all the money of our successor.

And… there are five thousand households, and the pressure is so great. If you pretend to be cowardly, you will lose all your money.

Fang Jifan said: “There is still some grain that needs to be cultivated in the fields outside the pass. Although hundreds of households have been relocated, we need to slowly figure it out and get a foothold first…”

Emperor Hongzhi said: “Hurry, there are so many Liu Wuliu, pointing at Where is the Zhenguo Mansion? Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Do you understand this?”

Fang Jifan’s head hurt, because this time he was pretending, it was all for the sake of the prince, and he really spent a lot of money.

Returning to Xishan, Fang Jifan was shocked when faced with the huge crowd of people. This time, he was a little too big. He had never really seen the power of the crowd. Zhu Houzhao on the side said with a silly smile: “Old Fang, what do you mean by this palace? Does he look like a holy king? If he continues like this, his achievements will be as good as those of the First Emperor.”

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao as if he was mentally retarded: “Your Highness, the Second Emperor is dead.”

“…” Zhu Houzhao spread his hands and said, “Anyway. The palace has no son. “

After I die, I won’t care about the flood.

Fang Jifan shook his head: “Maybe we have it?”

“We’ll talk about it later.” Zhu Houzhao thought of that circumcision and gritted his teeth: “Don’t mention this to me in the future.”

“You mentioned it first, and this time In order to protect the reputation of His Highness the Crown Prince, I may…” Fang Jifan said with a sad face: “I may have to pay a lot of money to go out. It will be a huge loss and I will lose the capital to marry a wife. If I find a good girl in the future, I won’t even be able to pay the betrothal gift. “

Zhu Houzhao crossed his hands and looked at Fang Jifan strangely: “Does your Fang family need to hire a wife?”

“What do you mean?” Fang Jifan was a little confused.

Zhu Houzhao touched his nose: “Oh, it’s nothing. I thought you were going to rob your wife when you married me. I also thought that I would go with you to rob him. I can look out.”

Fang Jifan patted him excitedly .

Zhu Houzhao’s shoulder: “Your Highness is mighty. With His Highness’s words, I feel warm and happy in my heart. We have made an agreement.”

Zhu Houzhao said happily: “Seriously?”

“Seriously!”

This is considered a verbal agreement.

Zhu Houzhao was happy, thinking about taking Fang Jifan’s wife home in the future. He was very happy. He touched the short beard that had grown out on his chin, squinted his eyes, and thought about how to steal her.

Wang Jinyuan was so busy that he sweated profusely for a whole morning. His feet did not touch the ground, like a spinning top. Looking at the countless people and hearing that the young master wanted to recruit four thousand more households, Wang Jinyuan wailed: “Master, these are all Money, it’s money in vain, I can’t afford it anymore.”

…

When I woke up in the morning, I found that I was definitely behind on the monthly PK rankings. It seemed that I had missed the opportunity again, okay. , don’t expect too much, just work hard to code.
