Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1698 The emperor is really holy

   Actually... can't wait is not a big deal!

  There is no one in the world who does not want to be an emperor if he is a prince.

  The problem is that…

  After listening to Zhu Houzhao's words... Emperor Hongzhi showed some regret.

  He could only stare at the crown prince, the crown prince grinned, and seemed to feel that his horoscope was not a sign, and now is the time to please.

  At this time, Fang Jifan said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Crown Prince has the courage to inherit the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and His Majesty can breathe a sigh of relief. From then on, he will live in peace and care, and enjoy his grandchildren, carefree and carefree."

   As he spoke, Fang Jifan bowed down, which was regarded as a turnaround for Zhu Houzhao.

   All the officials looked numb. They couldn't imagine what it would be like for a prince who refused to be modest to become the emperor.

  This has completely subverted their category of morality of the moment.

   Therefore, no one booed with Fang Jifan.

  Ouyang Zhi is still confused.

  Wang Shouren wanted to congratulate his teacher, but he also seemed to think...it was inappropriate. Only in the midst of thinking and hesitating, Emperor Hongzhi said with a smile: "Yes, I should also take a break. These years, I have been trembling every day, walking on thin ice, for fear of losing power. Jiangshan has its own successors." , Prince, I will hand over the country and the country to you, and I must be worthy of my ancestors, and I will not disappoint my expectations of you."

   "Father, look well, my son must have done better than my father." Zhu Houzhao couldn't help being elated again after hearing what Emperor Hongzhi said.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed.

   Even Fang Jifan couldn't help shaking his head secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but want to complain about Zhu Houzhao... Forget it, there's no way to turn it around, what the **** is going on.

   But things have reached this level, Emperor Hongzhi nodded, pretending to be pleased: "What I look forward to most is that you can be better than me."

  Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said: "Father, the ministers are still unclear. The father and son abdicated, the father became the emperor, and the sons became the emperor. Does the emperor still have to listen to the emperor and just be a son emperor?"

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

  Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "Since I am the emperor, I naturally ignore everything, and everything is as you wish."

   Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief.

  Emperor Hongzhi no longer wanted to continue the discussion.

  It's just... Speaking of this, almost everyone's heart is still extremely complicated.

   Except for Fang Jifan, from Xiao Jing to Liu Jianren, etc., they have not recovered yet.

  For them, there seems to be a feeling of heaven and earth falling apart.

  The environment that seems to be used to for a long time, suddenly... turned upside down.

  Zhu Houzhao bowed at the feet of Emperor Hongzhi: "Father, please rest assured, sons and ministers will definitely surpass their fathers and ancestors, shine on the lintel, and rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty."

  Emperor Hongzhi heaved a sigh of relief, smiled, and said nothing else, but said: "I am exhausted, choose an auspicious day, and ascend the throne."

  Zhu Houzhao couldn't understand why he promised his father that he would do far more than his father and ancestors to revitalize the Ming Dynasty, but his father looked...not interested.

   But... he shook his head, as if... as if it didn't matter anymore.

  At this moment, Zhu Houzhao had countless plans popping up in his mind.

  Have been the prince for more than 30 years.

  In the past thirty years, how many things have I planned!

  Emperor Hongzhi got up, but he gave Fang Jifan a look: "Jifan, you stay."

  When the officials saw this, their minds were extremely complicated, and they left one after another.

  Fang Jifan was a little flustered when he saw this, why should he stay here at this time?

  He hurriedly said in embarrassment: "My son...I feel a little out of my mind..."

  Emperor Hongzhi sat upright, ignoring Fang Jifan, but staring at Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao quickly said obediently: "My minister also retired."

   A group of people dispersed.

  Everyone has a different mind.

  Some people are happy and some are worried.

  Everyone who walked out of this palace gate knew that this country was about to change masters.

   And what should I do when I am at the center?

  Fang Jifan's heart was flustered, and after waiting for everyone to leave, Emperor Hongzhi took a look at Xiao Jing.

  Xiao Jing also consciously bowed and exited.

  There were no outsiders here, so Emperor Hongzhi stood up again, got off the golden throne, walked up to Fang Jifan, and said, "Didn't you say that the prince has grown up? Why is he still so rude? Today he is so... hey..."

  Fang Jifan couldn't help but sigh, but...

  He said sternly: "His Royal Highness is a sincere person, and his thoughts are all on governing the country and the world, so naturally he doesn't have the heart to play with these vain rituals..."

   Well, in fact, Fang Jifan also felt that he would not be able to make it up.

   Fortunately, for Emperor Hongzhi, all he needed was an excuse.

   "The matter has come to this, what can I do, I hope everything is as you said." Emperor Hongzhi immediately glanced at Fang Jifan, and said: "Jifan, I ordered you to join the cabinet, do you know why?"

  Fang Jifan did not dare to be sloppy when it comes to this kind of issue, so he said: "The crown prince has just become a great treasure, so naturally someone needs to help and protect the crown prince."

"This is just one of them." Emperor Hongzhi's eyes were deep, and he seemed to be far-sighted: "The prince is impatient, and he can govern a big country, so he needs to plan it slowly. At that time, it is inevitable that the six ministers of the cabinet will breed conflicts with the prince. At this time, you are here , and turn around in the middle, I can rest assured."

  Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Naturally, naturally."

When Emperor Hongzhi said this, he was a little reluctant to part with him, but he still said: "It's time for me to retire, and take good care of my grandson and grandson. In the future... there will be great-grandson and great-grandson. Don't worry about the world's affairs. From now on In the future, it will be time for you young people to show their fists."

  Fang Jifan couldn’t help staring at Emperor Hongzhi. Although he felt that the crown prince’s ascension to the throne was the best thing for him, he thought that the emperor who had relied on him for so many years would no longer rely on him. He felt a sense of loss in his heart.

  He rubbed his eyes: "There is actually sand in the palace."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled at him: "Go, I think there are still many things that you need to be busy with. There are still many memorials here. Although it is only a few days in this seat, even if there is one day left, One hour, one stick of incense, I will also properly hand over the world to the prince."

  Fang Jifan couldn't help bowing down: "My emperor is holy."

  Emperor Hongzhi seemed unable to bear to see Fang Jifan again at this time. Although it was not a farewell to life and death, the next time they met, it might be a change of identity, so he turned his back and said nothing.

  Fang Jifan got up silently and left.

  Xiao Jing then tiptoed in, but saw Emperor Hongzhi wiping his tears.

  Xiao Jing's heart was also extremely complicated, and he quickly bowed down: "Your Majesty...why is it sad?"

  Emperor Hongzhi rubbed his reddened eyes: "This is a happy thing. When my children and grandchildren grow up, they can finally share my worries and take responsibility for the rise and fall of the world. But... I am old, and people are old, so it is inevitable to be sentimental."

Xiao Jing couldn't help but wanted to cry, and then the tears came out unconvincingly, wondering if he was worried about his future fate: "Since your Majesty has made a decision, he has already made up his mind. The servants have served His Majesty for so many years, and His Majesty these years , I have been working hard all day, and now His Majesty can finally relax, and this servant is happy for His Majesty... very happy..."

Emperor Hongzhi looked gloomy, and sighed: "Where is there any real leisure? I only think of the crown prince ascending the throne, and I still need to worry about it. I am born with a busy nature, and I still worry about many things. Say it Take care of your life, but in which year will you not need to worry about your children and grandchildren at any time? But... if the crown prince does not ascend the throne early, how will he become mature and prudent in the future?"

  Xiao Jing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he knew Emperor Hongzhi's temperament best, so he knew that Emperor Hongzhi was right.

  Emperor Hongzhi was so sad and sad for a long time, but Xiao Jing didn't know how to comfort him, he only hated himself for not being as sharp as Fang Jifan.

  But at this time...a **** hurried in and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...it's terrible...it's terrible."

  Emperor Hongzhi was already depressed. Seeing the **** panicking, he frowned: "What's the matter?"

The **** panted and said, "Your Majesty, the exchange... the exchange... is overcrowded, overcrowded... I don't know... I don't know why, all the merchants came out and bought stocks wantonly. In less than half an hour, the exchange was three hundred More than 60 shares rose in unison, with a frightening momentum..."

   "Ah!" Emperor Hongzhi raised his reddish pupils, in the depths of his eyes... at first there were worries and doubts, and then... there seemed to be a flash of light.

   "Why?"

"Slaves...slaves don't know, they are inquiring." The **** said: "Slaves know that His Majesty cares about the news of the exchange, so they came to report first, but these slaves have been on duty at the exchange recently, and they also have a lot of experience with this stock. , I feel that today’s rise is sudden, but it is full of stamina. Now almost no one is selling, and people are listing to buy everywhere. Not to mention some popular stocks, even ordinary stocks that are not optimistic about people are also hot now... It’s just that the merchants have made a move, and now it’s suddenly skyrocketing, and in the future… there may be a large number of people entering the market, and at that time… according to the predictions of the servants, I’m afraid it won’t be able to hold back this momentum even if it doesn’t rise for a few days.”

  Emperor Hongzhi finally put a smile on his face, and his face recovered a bit of blood.

  The whole person said energetically: "It's a great benefit, it must be a great benefit... Don't make wild guesses now, hurry up and find out the truth, no... I want to find out in person."

   It will rise for a few days... full of stamina!

   Could it be that the value of so many stocks in the domestic funds must be doubled?

  Isn't it possible...

   Is it that crazy?

  Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help getting excited, he didn't trust these eunuchs.

   It's not that I'm afraid they will cheat.

It's these people... In the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, the level is too low. This is the way to talk about stocks, or I have the best experience. Is it because someone deliberately raised the price, or there is another reason, or I went to the transaction myself So, you can tell at a glance.
