I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 278 The Emperor's Valuable Hai Rui

Lu Fang had a panoramic view of the expression on Feng Bao's face, paused, and then spoke.

"One month later, Eunuch Shi will have to leave the palace due to physical reasons."

"At that time, you will take his place!"

After listening to Lu Fang's words, Feng Bao's face was full of astonishment, and he confirmed to Lu Fang trembling all over.

"Godfather, is this true? When the time comes, I will take over the position of Eunuch Shi?"

Lu Fang was not surprised by Feng Bao's behavior at the moment, chuckled, and immediately explained.

"Naturally, godfather, I have worked so hard for this job of yours!"

"I hope that by then, you won't disappoint your godfather."

When Feng Bao heard Lu Fang's words, he immediately knelt down on the ground and said in a deep voice.

"My godfather is kind to me, I, Feng Bao, remember it all in my heart!"

"Well, yes, godfather didn't hurt you for nothing, come here."

Lu Fang looked away from Feng Bao's body, and then ordered.

"Godfather, what do you want the child to do, just do it."

As soon as Lu Fang's words fell, Feng Bao still kept his kneeling posture, came to Lu Fang's side, and said flatteringly.

And Lu Fang just stretched out a hand, stroked Feng Bao's head lightly, and instructed.

"You, you have to keep in mind that we will always only listen to His Majesty alone!"

"do you understand?"

When Lu Fang said this, his tone suddenly increased, which made Feng Bao, who was kneeling on the ground, quite panicked, and responded repeatedly.

"Thank you godfather for teaching me, my son will remember, my son will remember!"

……

The next day, the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Jiajing got up very early. At this moment, he was walking casually in the Forbidden City accompanied by eunuchs and maids.

And when Jiajing came to Xiyuan and looked at the Longevity Palace that was destroyed by thunder and fire, he immediately ordered.

"I'm tired, just rest here for a while."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, a eunuch stepped forward, laid soft cushions on the stone bench, and placed all kinds of delicate pastries on the stone table, and there were still some bubbles in the jade-like green teapot. heat.

Jiajing nodded, then sat down on the stone bench, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, frowned, and then ordered.

"Notify the Imperial Dining Room that it's time for the taste of these pastries to change, and it's the same every time!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

When the eunuch who was in charge of serving the emperor behind heard this, a look of panic appeared on his face, and he responded immediately.

After Jiajing finished speaking, he poured himself a cup of hot tea by the way.

The entire Xiyuan is full of greenery, and not far away, there are chirping birds from time to time, which is quite relaxing.

At this moment, I saw Lu Fang quietly coming to Jiajing's side, and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Zhenji has returned to the capital by boat from Zhejiang!"

"With another three to five days of work, I should be able to come back."

Jiajing nodded upon hearing what Lu Fang said, and immediately gave instructions.

"When he arrives in the capital, you send someone to meet him, and don't let anyone get in touch with him!"

"do you understand?"

When Lu Fang heard this, she immediately responded respectfully.

"Yes, Your Majesty! This servant understands."

After Jiajing finished his instructions, he immediately turned his gaze to Lu Fang and said.

"Come, sit down, the weather is nice today, drink tea with me!"

After Jiajing's words fell, an eunuch immediately stepped forward and laid a cushion for Lu Fang, and at the same time, a skilled maid poured a cup of hot tea for her.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Lu Fang didn't make any excuses, and sat directly opposite Jiajing.The respectful look on his face remained unchanged, and he accompanied Jiajing to enjoy the scenery of Xiyuan.

After a long time, Lu Fang mustered up his courage and asked Jiajing for advice.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being bold, this Longevity Palace should be repaired!"

When Jiajing heard what Lu Fang said, his expression was flat, he shook his head, and said slowly.

"No, no need, just let it stay like this!"

When Lu Fang heard about it, she hesitated to speak.

Jiajing seemed to see through what Lu Fang was thinking, and explained with a chuckle.

"Did you think just now that the national treasury is so abundant now that there is nothing wrong with taking part of it to repair the palace, right?"

Seeing that the emperor had guessed what was in her heart, Lu Fang responded with a look of panic on her face.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

Jiajing didn't mean to blame Lu Fang, but drank the tea in the cup and continued.

"As long as I show the slightest sign that I want to repair the palace, those officials will make a request in a stern manner, and there is absolutely no one in the court who dares to object!"

"Even, they will be quite active to implement this matter, but in the name of Zhen, they will gain benefits for themselves."

"At that time, it will be apportioned layer by layer, and what will fall on the heads of the common people will be an astronomical figure!"

After Jiajing finished speaking, he immediately looked at Lu Fang, waiting for his response.

"The sin of slavery deserves ten thousand deaths!"

Lu Fang knelt down on the ground with a 'plop' and replied tremblingly.

"Well, get up, I've said it all, it's not your fault."

Jiajing nodded, and then signaled Lu Fang to get up from the ground.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Lu Fang finished speaking, she slowly got up from the ground, and then sat down in the previous position.

"Earlier, Xu Jie proposed to me that after Zhao Zhenji came back from Zhejiang, he would formally launch a campaign to clean up the government."

"It's just right, it's time to bring out a group of people and kill chickens to make an example to monkeys."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he took the fish food from the maid at the side, and then fed the fish with their heads in the pond.

As soon as the fish food fell into the pond, it attracted the fish in the pond to scramble for a while, and the water surface kept rippling.

Lu Fang forcibly suppressed the horror in her heart, came to Jiajing's side respectfully, and said.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I forgot to mention earlier that there is another person who accompanied Zhao Zhenji to return to the capital by boat this time!"

"Oh, who is it?"

When Jiajing heard what Lu Fang said, he immediately turned around, his face full of curiosity.

"It seems to be an official named Hai Rui, who used to work in Chun'an County, Zhejiang."

Lu Fang recalled for a long time before giving a definite answer.

"Hai Rui!"

After Jiajing heard the name from Lu Fang, he said with emotion.

"Your Majesty, do you know this Hai Rui?"

Lu Fang was very puzzled by Jiajing's performance, and immediately asked.

"Of course I know him. This Hai Rui is quite famous. He is a divine sword of my Ming Dynasty!"

Jiajing had a panoramic view of the expression on Lu Fang's face, and said with a half-smile.

Hearing Jiajing's words, Lu Fang's face became more suspicious, and she thought to herself.

"This Hai Rui is obviously just a small county magistrate. How could His Majesty have such an evaluation? Is there something else that I don't know about..."

Lu Fangxuan suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart, and asked Jiajing truthfully.

"Your Majesty, there is still one thing that I don't understand. Why do you have such a high opinion of this Hai Rui?"

Obviously, Jiajing didn't mean to explain Lu Fang's confusion, but chuckled lightly and said.

"Hmph, Lu Fang, you will know when the time comes."

"When the time comes, let this Hai Rui serve in Zhao Zhenji's Inspectorate!"

"By the way, the previous official named Tang Shunzhi did the same."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he immediately added another sentence.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The expression on Lu Fang's face remained unchanged, and he replied respectfully.
