Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1056 Jin Yiwei enters the palace

   What Xiao Jing said with a smile made Fang Jifan's hairs stand on end.

  This person... is really stinky and shameless to the extreme.

   It can be seen that in this world, most people are blind.

   I, Fang Jifan, worked hard for the country and the people, but people didn’t understand, and this Xiao Jing... is really a dog, why don’t everyone scold him?

  Fang Jifan smiled: "That's right."

  Xiao Jing never expected that he would gain Fang Jifan's approval. He looked at Fang Jifan in surprise, and then laughed. It seems... Heroes see the same thing.

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly.

  Of course he knows that this is the best way.

only…

But Fang Jifan said: "But in my opinion, killing a few magistrates and county magistrates is probably not enough. How can those **** troublemakers understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts? If you want them to be wise, you have to catch His Majesty." Kill a few people around you, so that the people will all rejoice, saying that His Majesty can defend loyalty and traitor. It's just... Who should you kill? Oh, I can't die, I am Your Majesty's foolish son-in-law, and the princess's husband, England The public can't be killed, and His Majesty has to keep him to worship the heavens, no, to worship the ancestors. After thinking about it... Whoever is closest to His Majesty will be killed, and since then, who will dare to say that His Majesty is not holy?"

   Xiao Jing's face turned green from fright.

  This is talking about...it seems to be me!

  He hurriedly glanced at His Majesty cautiously, for fear that His Majesty would be confused. Seeing His Majesty's gloomy face, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, servant... loyal..."

"It's good to be loyal. If you are not loyal, how can you sacrifice your life for His Majesty's holy name, throw your head and shed blood? Eunuch Xiao, you can do it. If you are so loyal, if I were you, I would do it myself without your Majesty's order." It's over."

   "Slaves... slaves..."

   "Ah, it seems that you are pretending to be loyal. You don't even dare to die, but you dare to say that you are loyal to Your Majesty."

Xiao Jing actually knew that Fang Jifan was talking nonsense, and he was afraid that these nonsense words would suddenly arouse some thoughts of His Majesty, this thing, he was not joking, Xiao Jing's face was miserable, and he said: "I will die... "

"Okay." Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Don't mess around. This report... makes me feel chilled. But when I think about it carefully, I can't blame the subjects. They... were forced to relocate without complaint. How could it be possible without complaints? It's not that the crime is serious, but for the politicians, since they have made a will, they will inevitably be criticized by others, I... just feel a little depressed."

  Although he only said that he felt a little depressed, his heart felt like a needle prick.

  After more than ten years of hard work and countless painstaking efforts, it seems...in the hearts of the subjects, this is nothing more than that.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "I called you here because I was a little irritable. Sometimes, I would ask myself whether... every decision I made was correct."

"It's scary to think about it carefully!" Emperor Hongzhi showed his old age. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Think about it, every decision I make is impossible to be correct. But what if one decision is wrong? Just say This time, if... then what Wang Wenyu said is wrong. If I just listened to his one-sided words and made this decree, how many people were displaced, how many people... suffered disasters because of this, and after the natural disaster, I gave them Man-made disasters have been imposed, and people who died because of my decision, how many people will there be? Ten? One hundred? Or one thousand? How many people will resent me, and how many people will be... trapped because of this."

"It's immeasurable!" Emperor Hongzhi asked and answered himself, his eyes seemed to be foggy, and as he got older, he looked like a child, especially in front of the prince and Fang Jifan, his eyes were red, It made Emperor Hongzhi feel a little ashamed, but... this emotion came as soon as he said it, and he choked up slightly: "Even if there are only ten or a hundred people, it is nothing to these billions of people, and it is not even worth mentioning. But sometimes, my conscience is disturbed. In the dead of night, when I bow my head here, I will think in my heart that they must also have concerns about this world, and they will have their hopes just like me. They Just like me, I can cry, I can laugh, sometimes I have a frowning face, and sometimes... I am emotionally sad. Because of a one-sided word, I made them irreparable. Their children must cry bitterly, their parents; the white-haired people sent The black-haired man must be heart-piercing; his wife must have fallen into despair; his relatives and friends... must be weeping for it."

Emperor Hongzhi's hands were trembling, and on this imperial case, the trembling gradually became severe: "That's why I am afraid. Sometimes, facing this empty hall, I am so afraid that I look at the memorials and hold the ink pen slowly. Dare to fall so easily, I am in awe. Now, after reading this report, I am even more afraid. Sometimes I think, if I am not the emperor, it would be great."

  Fang Jifan's face turned green with fright, and he subconsciously glanced at Zhu Houzhao, for fear that Zhu Houzhao would start talking nonsense.

   Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao did not speak nonsense.

  Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan: "This Wang Wenyu, is his words credible?"

  Fang Jifan coughed: "Your Majesty..."

  Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand suddenly: "Come on, it's useless to say anything. I don't doubt or doubt people. This Academy of Sciences is only my idea. Besides, no one has faults. Even if there are faults, it is my fault."

  ...

  In the waiting room of the Hanlin Academy.

  Wang Bushi, as usual, sat down on the copybook and started to work.

  Some other Hanlin seemed to be discussing something in a low voice.

  Wang Bushi always ignored these trivial matters.

  These people... have always been like this. They have to criticize everything righteously. Wang Bushi has long been used to it.

   It was Yan Shixue who stepped forward, and he gave Wang Bushi a complicated look: "Scholar Wang, you were on duty yesterday, did you find anything unusual?"

   "Abnormal? What is abnormal?" Wang Bushi raised his eyes and looked at the others with a smile.

  Everyone looked at Wang Bushi with complicated eyes.

   This guy is too bad.

  Last time he said, take out the silver and invest it in this workshop, it will be a huge profit.

   As a result... I heard... the profits of many workshops are astonishing. Wang Bushi's net worth seems to have skyrocketed several times. It is said that he is now interested in railways. He seems to be interested in building railways in partnership with others.

  I knew this earlier, so I invested some money in the past.

  The vast majority of people will always be hindsight.

   "I heard from people in the Cai Palace just now that His Majesty was furious after receiving the report from Jiujiang Mansion. It seems that it is because... His Majesty mistrusted the Academy of Sciences..."

  As soon as the Academy of Sciences was mentioned, many people's faces became contemptuous.

   What are those things, they are also assigned to the Palace of Value, and they are also assigned to point fingers at the national policy of Ming Dynasty?

  The entire Hanlin Academy is now considered to be the same enemy, and it hates the Academy of Sciences to the extreme.

   A group of people without fame can actually sit on an equal footing with the Imperial Academy, Your Majesty... this is muddled.

Then Yan Shidu went on, and said happily: "I heard that the hearts of the people are boiling. If this continues, Jiangxi will definitely turn against it. The people in Jiangxi are pitiful, just because of the nonsense of the Academy of Sciences... Today, some officials from Jiangxi received a message from their fellow countrymen. The letter, inside... accuses the local parents and officials of relocating the people without authorization.

   "I'm not interested." Wang Bushi said lightly.

   "..."

  Although everyone was prepared for Wang Bushi's aloofness, his indifferent answer still poked a hornet's nest.

"you you…"

Wang Bushi sneered with a stern face: "Whether Wang Wenyu's servant is right or wrong, at least there is a basis for what he said. Why impeach him? Have you ever said a word for the disaster victims? As far as I know, many people are just watching jokes, and if they have the ability, they will come up with their own regulations. It’s more reliable, Your Majesty is wise, and you should accept it. But Wang Wenyu played it, but the princes didn’t have a good opinion, so why are you here now?”

   These words are really heartbreaking.

  But Wang Bushi seems to enjoy this process very much.

He is now worth millions of taels, and in the future... it will only be more. Even if he donated countless silver back then, he can still aspire to become a rich man, and now he is a bachelor in attendance and in charge of the waiting room leader , why, you are not convinced?

   "Scholar Wang, now he only cares about chasing money, and he no longer has the strength of a minister."

Wang Bushi bowed his head and continued to copy the imperial edict, ignoring them: "I didn't realize until now that the ministers are full of the king's salary, and what they want is not strength of character, but pragmatism. The people are suffering all day long, and the people are suffering. Gong, of course it is miserable, but you don’t have any good policies for the people, and you always talk about yourself and brag about your character. This is a terrible thing...Fang Duwei called me the scum of the world. Now that I think about it, I, and you Similarly, it can indeed be called the scum of the world, a gentleman examines himself three times, realizes his mistakes and corrects himself, and there is nothing good about it. From now on, I will not be this scum of the world, gentlemen... Do whatever you want."

  This is poking at people's hearts.

   "You...you curse..."

  But at this time, someone stood by the window, but said: "Look, Jin Yiwei Commander Mu Bin has entered the palace..."

   All of a sudden, many people looked out of the window.

  But outside the waiting room, a figure entered from the Meridian Gate and went straight to Fengtian Hall.

  Someone excitedly said: "Something must have happened. The commander of Jinyiwei will go out in person. It must be a big thing. Such an emergency, there must be a rebellion somewhere, it can't be Jiujiang Mansion."

   Having said that, many people cheered up.

  ………

  Chapter 3, I'm so tired, go to bed, ask for a monthly pass.
