The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 80

[80.Chapter 80 A famous teacher gives birth to a great disciple]

The first sentence, “My name is Fang Jifan”, made everyone feel a little weak and had mixed feelings on their heads and faces.

But in the second sentence, my father’s name is Fang Jinglong, Dutou finally lost the strength to stand, and with a snap, he knelt down.

What’s even more terrifying is the third sentence, what’s your name?

He was trembling with fear, he was just a small prince with no rank and rank, but the man in front of him was the heir apparent of an earl, and his father was on official business in the Governor’s Mansion of the Fifth Army. Many princes were related to Uncle Nanhe’s family.

His face seemed to be filled with blood, and he said with difficulty: “Little… little Zhang Chong.”

“Oh.” Fang Jifan nodded carelessly, his eyes narrowed to a slit: “How many people are there in the family?”

“…” Zhang Chong shivered even more violently, his body was like chaff, and he peed in fear.

“Villain…Villain… there is an old man above him…a young man below him…”

Fang Jifan nodded and did not go into details: “You saw it just now, right? This scholar named Tang Yin actually beat this young master in public…”

Zhang Chong He carefully raised his eyes and looked at Tang Yin, who was not far away, and then looked at Fang Jifan, who was lowering his head and smoothing out the wrinkles on his clothes. He said with difficulty: “Look… I saw it. I’ll take him here, little one. This… …This is unreasonable. In the clear world at the feet of the emperor, someone dares to hit the young master. This is a villain’s dereliction of duty. I just…”

“Forget it.” Fang Jifan waved his hand magnanimously: “I plan to forgive him. Let’s not worry about it. Young people are always impulsive. Could it be that just because he beat me, I will ruin his future?”

Zhang Chong immediately said: “Young Master has a kind heart, and I admire him very much.”

Fang Jifan said .

He curled his lips and said, “Deng Jian.”

Deng Jian was still rolling up his sleeves, as if he still hadn’t forgiven his hatred. He was glaring at Tang Yin, but when he heard Fang Jifan’s call, he immediately showed a flattering smile: “The villain is here.”

Fang Jifan said: “Please ask me. Good doctor, we will pay for his injuries. Our Fang family is a reasonable family. We cannot retaliate just because others beat us.”

“Master…”

Fang Jifan glared at him.

Deng Jian suddenly didn’t dare to say anything and said hurriedly: “I understand, you villain.”

“And!” Fang Jifan pointed at the Laifu Inn: “From now on, we will have people keep this place under surveillance. Tang Yin is looking down on our Fang Jifan because of his intrigues.”

“Yes, yes.”

Naturally, Deng Jian and Na Dutou will handle the rest of the lawsuit. Fang Jifan doesn’t have to worry about this.

Tang Bohu was Jieyuan, and he had the reputation of raising people. If an ordinary person touches him, he will definitely cause big trouble. Fortunately, Fang Jifan is not an ordinary person. Of course, the most important thing is that this must be a confused case, because Fang Jifan can guarantee , absolutely no one will jump out to testify against themselves.

It is really not easy to do good deeds and accumulate virtue…

Fang Jifan suddenly found that his tears had dropped a lot since time traveling. In his last life, he was boring and buried his head in his desk. He didn’t know what year it was today. But now, he was experiencing glitz and glitz. Even so, he did not change his original intention. The wealthy life did not change his ambition and the original intention of Yu Jie Song Zhen.

Huh… the corners of his eyes were actually a little moist, but in the eyes of Na Dutou and Deng Jian, this prodigal thing was indescribably terrifying. Even when he walked away, there was an air of terror that you could never guess.

This figure disappeared into the darkness.

Then, it was the normal procedure. Du Tou directed the people to carry Tang Yin back to the inn. Du Tou worked hard and entered the inn to investigate the situation and began to interrogate passers-by. The results obtained were generally the same.

I don’t know, I didn’t see it, ah, did Tang Jieyuan hit someone?

No one dares to speak out in such matters, and no one is stupid. The risk of getting involved is too great. Even if some people sympathize with Tang Jieyuan, what can be done?

Dutou asked someone to sign and stamp him, and then pretended to conduct an interrogation. He seemed to have some compassion and couldn’t help but visit Tang Yin.

Although Tang Yin’s injuries were horrific, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief after examining him. Most of them were skin injuries. For example, his face was beaten into a pig’s head. It was basically confirmed that Tang Yin’s mother would never recognize her son. .

In addition, there is a fracture in his calf. He may not be able to get off the ground for three to two months.

The doctor was certain in his heart that there would be no danger to his life, and he couldn’t help but sigh: “This is luck, it is because Jieyuan Gong’s ancestors were virtuous, otherwise… even if he doesn’t die, there will be troubles.”

Tang Yin wanted to die, Being beaten like this, you tell me this is because of the virtue of our ancestors? If Tang Bohu could still get up, he might have to strangle this quack to death.

Du Tou just watched from the side, feeling sympathy in his heart. When he saw Tang Bohu lying on the hospital bed, he sighed: “Tang Jieyuan, since it doesn’t interfere with anything, it’s fine. There is no conclusion on what is right and wrong today, but in this world The matter is probably nothing more than this. After all, Fang Jifan comes from a wealthy family. Tang Jieyuan should bear with his anger for a while and rest in peace. Let’s let this matter go.”

Dutou said this and felt that he had made a mistake.

Tang Yin was mumbling. He didn’t have the strength to speak at first, and the few notes that came out of his mouth were vague. But after hearing Du Tou’s words, he was filled with indignation. He didn’t know where the strength came from, and roared: “No , no…ahem…I, Tang Yin, will never let this son succeed, never let him succeed, I…I will definitely be at the top of the list this time, and I will defeat all three of his disciples… Cough cough…cough cough…”

The doctor was startled and rushed to comfort him.

Fang Jifan is an intelligent man, although everyone thinks he is reckless and recklessly stupid.

This matter will definitely not be let go easily. After all, the one who is fighting is Jieyuan. The official ruling is easy to handle. He is afraid of provoking public anger. But Fang Jifan does good people and good deeds. How can he care so much.

In this case, Fang Jifan played a little trick.

bet!

Bet on the results of this imperial examination.

People’s hearts are like this. If there is just a fight, the dissatisfied people will definitely make a noise, and there is no guarantee that no trouble will be caused.

But once a gambling game occurs, and the gambling game is related to the imperial examination, then many people will inevitably be angry and hope to vent their dissatisfaction through this gambling game.

Sure enough, the candidates in the capital had already made a fuss. Tang Yin was beaten, or Tang Yin beat up the prodigal Fang Jifan. Rumors like these were rampant. Although Fang Jifan’s reputation in the minds of scholars… well, the so-called controversy, It’s just a one-sided insult, nothing more than bullying.

However, although they were angry about Tang Jieyuan, there were not many scholars who caused trouble. Almost everyone… was looking forward to… this spring, so that Tang Jieyuan would trample Fang Jifan’s three disciples under his feet. , so as to let out this bad breath.

In fact… almost everyone has enough confidence in Tang Jieyuan.

Tang Yin is Nanzhili Jieyuan, and Fang Jifan’s three disciples are indeed good in strength, but the most powerful one is Ouyang Zhi, who is Shuntianfu Jieyuan.

It seems that they are all Jieyuan, but in fact, the difference is thousands of miles.

Yingtianfu is commonly known as the hometown of exam masters. Maybe a scholar who failed in the exam can be successful in a public examination in the north. Therefore, Tang Yin, who was in high school in Nanzhili Jieyuan, became famous all over the world, but he won the exam in the north. Ouyang Zhi of Jieyuan in Zhili Province, like those of Jieyuan in other provinces, was lost to everyone.

The Ming Dynasty’s examinations have been conducted in the North and South since the beginning of Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty. Originally, southern scholars and northern scholars were examined separately. However, in recent years, the weather has changed dramatically. In order to take care of scholars from various provinces rushing to take the examination, in the ninth year of Hongzhi, the emperor According to the purpose, the North-South General Examination will be held in February, but the examination papers and questions will be different.

In this regard, Ouyang Zhi and the others have a slight advantage. After all, the test papers in the Beipang are often “easier”.

But even so, the rankings of this general examination are still based on the quality of the articles. Beiren has a high chance of admission. Wanting to defeat this group of test masters headed by Tang Yin is still a fantasy in the eyes of the world. Being a Jinshi is already a sign of virtue accumulated by one’s ancestors.

Fang Jifan was of course blind to the rumors outside. The snow stopped for a few days, and then it started to snow heavily again. In the Fang family’s study.

Fang Jifan sat on his knees on the ground with a solemn expression.

The three disciples, wearing turbans and Confucian shirts, also looked particularly serious.

Fang Jifan’s lips moved slightly: “Have you heard about the rumors outside?”

Ouyang Zhi’s face was numb, and he only nodded slightly.

Is it strange?

Not surprising.

Either he beat Tang Jieyuan up, and it is said that he almost broke his leg, or he made a bet. If he won, Tang Yin would also worship under the gate of En Mansion. If he lost… he would strangle me, Ouyang Zhi, to death. ? It’s nothing, so what does this mean? What storms and waves have I, Ouyang Zhi, never seen before?

There was no ripples on Ouyang Zhi’s face at all, and he was not surprised at all changes!

This actually coincides with the principles of natural selection and survival of the fittest. People will mutate. If they don’t mutate, they will be eliminated. Just like the simple Ouyang Zhi who was shocked when he first saw his mentor’s ridiculous behavior. He would be uneasy, he would be anxious, and he would have mixed feelings, but if he ‘study’ with his mentor, if there is no sudden change, no one can bear the shock that comes from time to time. So, gradually, he got used to it, and he even got used to it. He began to feel uncomfortable with the peaceful life. In the Fang family, if nothing major happened for a few days, he would be shocked, anxious, uneasy, and even sick with worry.

Enfu beat someone and made a bet, oh, it’s just such a small thing, I know…

Fang Jifan looked at Ouyang Zhi and couldn’t help but trembled, this kid is unfazed by big changes, and Mount Tai collapsed in front of him. And the color remains unchanged, which is very promising.
