Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1612 King's heart is unpredictable

  After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi also felt that it was reasonable, and said: "That's right, don't doubt the employment, and don't use the suspect."

   Then, he looked down again, and behind the charter was a series of checklists.

  The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first.

  Emperor Hongzhi looked at the mobilization of the flying ball battalion, the number of flying balls, and the latest bombs. As for other grains, canned food, ordnance, there are countless.

  Emperor Hongzhi felt emotional again.

   This is just what Fang Jifan called a 'small action', but this small action may require a lot of money and food.

  If it is a national conquest, I am afraid that the number will be more than a hundred times this.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "The state treasury will provide some of the money and food needed, and some of the internal funds will also be provided. In the regulations, Jifan said that he is also willing to contribute. There is no need for this. This is a state matter, not a family matter. Jiang Chen, Wang Xizuo and others in the northern province, as well as the commander-in-chief Zhou Kai and ordinary soldiers, are all subjects of my Daming. Their lives and deaths are uncertain, and they are in a critical situation. How can my Ming not refuse to rescue them."

   As he spoke, he waved his hand and said, "This is the end of the discussion. Xishan, the Navy, and the Flying Ball Battalion, let's make preparations early."

Speaking of this, Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "I know that the soldiers who rushed to the aid this time, as well as Tang Yin, Liu Wenshan, etc., are doomed to die. They are all loyal and good, and they are the pillars of our Ming Dynasty. Let them go to die, but... until now, they took the initiative to invite Ying, and I was also in a dilemma. Now that I have granted them, if they can return in triumph, I... personally welcome them to return in triumph. "

  Emperor Hongzhi seemed touched.

  Whether it is Tang Yin or Liu Wenshan, these two people may have volunteered because of their junior brother Jiang Chen.

   But so what? Even if they stay in this capital, with their past achievements, they can still enjoy wealth and honor.

   This group of scholars from Xishan, all of them are newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, and all of them put their own lives at risk. They are very wise and brave, which makes Emperor Hongzhi especially favor them.

   Immediately, Emperor Hongzhi took a deep look at Fang Jifan.

   Afterwards, he was silent at first, and then dismissed Liu Jianren and others.

   Wait for Liu Jian and others to leave.

  Emperor Hongzhi straightened his face, his eyes were slightly stern, and said: "I am going to look for you, you are usually prudent in doing things, why are you imitating the behavior of the prince?"

  Fang Jifan looked dazed, and thought to himself, what's wrong with the prince, I think apart from being a little bad-tempered, a little low in EQ, a little reckless in doing things, and the old man has more people, he is still very good.

  Fang Jifan didn't know what happened, but he knew that His Majesty rejected Liu Jian and others. He must have provoked His Majesty, and wanted to teach him in private out of the idea that his family should not be publicized.

  Fang Jifan did not hesitate, and immediately said: "Your Majesty is furious. I must be guilty of ten thousand deaths. My son is terrified. I implore Your Majesty to punish."

   Don't ask what's the matter, just confess your sin first.

   Don't reach out and hit the smiling face.

  Emperor Hongzhi saw Fang Jifan like this, and immediately... most of his anger disappeared.

  But immediately, he still frowned and said, "How can you ask Master Wang to raise pigs?"

  Fang Jifan: "..."

   There was a moment of silence.

Fang Jifan let out a howl like killing a pig: "Your Majesty, there is a lesson to be learned from the world, I am wronged, this is his own request, I must go to raise pigs, I did not expect the prince to have such a special hobby, he If you want to raise pigs, how can you stop me?"

Fang Jifan looked aggrieved, but Emperor Hongzhi's face was dark, and he sighed: "At the beginning, among the masters in Zhan Shifu, only Master Wang was left. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials, an extremely personable minister, has two sleeves, is upright, and never fights for power and profit, and participates in disputes between the courts. Even if I wholeheartedly want a new deal, and his ideas are at odds with him, he can understand my difficulties. Knowing that I do this, I have my own thoughts, so...for so many years, he has not said a single complaint, but now he is a scholar, but he goes to raise pigs. This must be where you offended him, or...I Some things have gone too far, he wanted to say it, but he couldn't say it, because he was afraid that what he said would cause those who opposed me to make use of it, so...so he gave up on himself and insulted his own elegance. "

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed when he said this.

   There were tears in his eyes.

   This is his only remaining master.

   Besides, Wang Ao really couldn't find a single thorn in his body.

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, and said again: "But I also know that there have been many evils accumulated in the past hundred and fifty years of the Ming Dynasty. In order to eliminate these evils, I must strictly implement the New Deal. Some things may be too much, but they are too much." You must be honest, and you must let Master Wang feel cold. Jifan, you have to handle this matter properly, and you must not attract any gossip. Everyone in the world is watching me, Master Wang, I don’t want In the future, someone will use Master Wang to make false comments on me, and I don't want... Master Wang's reputation to be destroyed, can you... understand what I'm thinking?"

  Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "I understand."

   "It's good if you understand." Emperor Hongzhi glared at Fang Jifan: "Now, please ask Master Wang to go home immediately, and stop raising pigs."

   "Oh." Fang Jifan nodded very simply.

  …………

  There are a lot of pigs in Xishan now.

   After all, there are many farmers here, and the farms are all over the place.

  Shuncheng Farm is run by the canteen in Xishan, and is responsible for supplying meat to the canteen.

  Now... There are more than 30 pigs in Nuo Da's pigsty, but all the big pigs that are about to be slaughtered have left, and the ones left are all piglets.

  There are pig houses, pig pens, and a house for pigmen.

  As soon as you get close to it, it stinks immediately.

  Because it is close to the playground, many tourists can see it from a distance.

  And now...Wang Ao and Zhou Tanzhi are both dressed in short clothes.

Zhou Tanzhi was so tired that he was out of breath and sweating profusely. He was chasing a pig so anxiously that his eyes were red, and he called out: "Fang Sifan, if you dare to run away again, I will beat you to death today. Damn pig, cough...cough..."

  Perhaps after running for a long time, he felt some pain in his waist, he couldn't run any longer, he was panting heavily, his whole body was like a bellows.

   Then he slumped down exhaustedly on the ground full of dry and hard feces, covering his waist with his hands.

Immediately afterwards, I saw Wang Ao behind me, yelling angrily: "Don't chase after the poor, don't chase after the poor, Zi'an, don't you understand such a truth? Hey, when you were by my side back then, I didn't miss you." Taught by precepts and deeds, why are you still so stupid until now? There is a saying in the art of war, encircle them with ten, attack them with five, divide them by two times, the enemy can fight, if the enemy is small, he can escape, and if he is weak, he can avoid him Therefore, the strength of a small enemy is the capture of a great enemy."

Then Wang Ao scolded again: "In this circle today, there are pigs from one clan, two clans, and thirty-seven pigs from thirty-seven clans, but you and I are only two people, and we can make thirty-seven pigs with just two people." Pigs, especially the four vassals, are the most cunning. Their cunning is so cunning, even more so than that of a certain country. Things, lure the enemy with pigweed."

  After Zhou Tanzhi heard it, he suddenly felt annoyed, and felt that what his teacher said was very reasonable.

  It is better to lure the enemy than to act violently.

  So he tapped his waist twice with his hands, stood up and patted the dust on his buttocks, and hurried to prepare pigweed.

  The pigweed was prepared, but a group of piglets were lazily scattered all over the pigsty, not coming to eat.

  Zhou Tanzhi became anxious: "I'm really getting lazy. I don't get up until three poles in the sun. I don't eat pigweed. Do I have to feed them?"

   Zhou Tanzhi has a bad temper.

  The well-behaved Minister of Rites of Nanjing was actually fined to come here to feed pigs.

   Not only that, but also implicated his mentor.

  The future is gone, and even the gentleness is gone.

  If it wasn't for his mentor to calm him down, he would rather die than deal with these pigs.

   These pigs are really annoying.

  Wang Ao fell into deep thought.

   Not because of anything else.

  Because he is Zhou Tanzhi's teacher.

  As a teacher, when you encounter a problem, how can you not think about it?

Leaning on his stick, he looked up at the sky and muttered, "Everything has spirits. Although pigs are stupid, they also have spirits. Since they have spirits, why not eat them? Since they don't eat, there must be some reason." Look, old man, they are running so fast, they are definitely not infected, so... what is the reason?"

   Just as he was talking, someone hurriedly came outside and said, "The Duke of Qi is here, the Duke of Qi is here, hurry up, drive that pig away."

  Wang Ao's thinking was interrupted.

  Hearing that Fang Jifan was coming, Wang Ao immediately straightened his waist, and went to look for a crutch again, putting his weight on the crutch.

  Zhou Tanzhi lowered his head and kept silent. He didn't want to raise pigs anymore.

  Fang Jifan is here, what does he want to do?

  Could it be...you still want to insult yourself?

  A moment later, Fang Jifan came holding his nose.

  A group of people behind him surrounded him tightly, protecting the father-in-law carefully.

  Fang Jifan saw Wang Ao's disheveled face, happy, stepped forward and said, "How is the prince?"

  Wang Ao said indifferently: "Whether it is good or not, it has nothing to do with Duke Qi."

  Look, Wang Ao deserves to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, even speaking so frankly.

Fang Jifan smiled and said: "My lord, this time I came here to invite you out of the mountain. You see...it stinks here, why should the prince suffer so much here? I heard...the Wang family is already in chaos. Prince, come, come, let's take a bath first, then we will light the side stove, eat some beef or something, and talk slowly if we have something to say, okay?"

  ………

  At noon, I sat with Angry Banana. He told me not to update so fast. I was almost fooled by him. After thinking about it, the tiger still needs to code well. Today’s update is late, sorry. (Kidding)
