Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 366 Yujia Xishan

   It’s the Chinese New Year.

  Xishan has a new layout here, but the purpose is to welcome Shengjia.

  The decree in the palace has come out, and His Majesty will visit Xishan in person.

  Only this time, it was not a private visit in a micro-service, but a serious visit from a holy driver.

  When the time comes, there will be a large number of guards, many eunuchs, and a large number of ministers who serve as chauffeurs.

   As a result, the entire Xishan Mountain began to be refurbished. Fang Jifan gathered the five disciples of Xiumu and asked them to lead the people to start the decoration.

   "As a teacher...just you five disciples, work hard and make no mistakes." Fang Jifan explained to them solemnly.

   "..."

  The five people showed no expression, only Tang Yin said cautiously; "Teacher, actually...Teacher has six disciples."

   "What?" Fang Jifan was stunned for a moment.

  So Tang Yin reminded: "There is still Junior Brother Xu, Junior Brother Xu has gone to sea."

After hearing what he said, Fang Jifan patted himself on the head: "Oh, seeing my teacher's memory, I almost forgot Xu Jing. I haven't seen him for a few months. I miss him very much. Okay, let's get down to business, what should be explained, As a teacher, I have already explained that as a teacher, there are only five...six of you as disciples, and as a teacher, I value you the most, so I don’t need to repeat this point, just do it well.”

  Fang Jifan gave a serious explanation to several disciples, and on the other side, Longquan Taoist Li Chaowen also came eagerly!

  Hearing the summons from his master uncle, he did not hesitate to turn down a few big households in the capital to invite them to do the practice, and brought a group of Taoists, and rushed to Xishan without stopping.

  As soon as he saw Fang Jifan, even if he was only on the ridge of the field, he ignored the filth in the ridge, prostrated himself on the ground, and said respectfully: "Xiao Dao pays homage to the uncle. I don't know what the uncle has ordered, but please send down the Taoist decree."

  Fang Jifan kicked his ass, Li Chaowen groaned, but hurriedly said with a smile: "Uncle Master is stronger than before, Xiaodao is very happy."

Fang Jifan said unceremoniously to him: "I have only been a real person for a year. Look at yourself. You used to be as thin as a bamboo pole, but now you have a big belly. You don't look like a real person. If you die, you will bring someone to you." I'll go to work, clear the road and pave it with gravel."

   "Okay..." Li Chaowen said with a smile: "Okay, Xiaodao will follow my uncle's orders, and leave some small matters to Longquan Temple."

   After speaking, he stood up, stretched out his big belly, and went to work happily.

  …

  By early the next morning, the genius realized that the palace was already busy.

  The Minister of Attendance was headed by Liu Jian, followed by a group of imperial officials, waiting outside the Daming Gate early.

  The Daming Gate is the main gate of the Forbidden City, and it is usually not allowed to be opened. Only the emperor and empress can enter and leave.

  And Zhu Houzhao entered the palace from the Meridian Gate early, and went directly to Queen Zhang's bedroom.

  Today is actually a big day for Queen Zhang and Zhu Xiurong.

  After all, as female relatives, several households do not want to go out of the palace. For them, it is a once-in-a-lifetime day.

  Zhu Xiurong put on makeup today, but she startled Empress Zhang: "Why is the rouge smeared like a monkey's butt, go wash it."

   "Oh." A look of awkwardness flashed across Zhu Xiurong's face, but she quickly lowered her head and had no choice but to wash it off in a hurry.

Zhu Houzhao stomped anxiously beside him: "Hurry up, hurry up, the father waited anxiously and got angry, that's why he beat the son, it's getting late, sister, what are you doing, are you Go see a doctor, what kind of hairpin do you change, any hairpin looks good, hurry up, hurry up, I'm so anxious!"

  Zhu Xiurong was not in a hurry, he just looked left and right at the glass mirror sent by Xishan, feeling a little apprehensive and worried, so he frowned.

  Zhu Houzhao was so anxious that he hugged the pillar and threw his face: "I'm so **** off, I'm so **** off, stop dawdling!"

  He is impatient, especially if he can't wait for a woman to dawdle like this, he is so angry.

   Finally, Zhu Xiurong was satisfied, so he got up the chariot, and hurried out of the palace with the huge team.

  Liu Jian and other officials waited outside the Daming Gate. When Sheng Jia came out of the palace, they heaved a long sigh of relief and followed Sheng Jia out.

  …

  After more than an hour, the eunuchs and imperial guards arrived at Xishan. Although the clothes here in Xishan were completely new, in fact, the changes were not great.

  Fang Jifan waited here with a group of disciples. Fang Jifan became excited when he saw the holy driver coming from a distance.

  He can't bear these imaginary rituals the most, they are cumbersome and useless, but he has to follow them, after all, life is very important!

  When the holy driver came to a complete stop, Fang Jifan stepped forward and said, "I respectfully welcome the holy driver, long live my emperor."

Emperor Hongzhi was supported by someone from the holy car, looked around, and was in a happy mood: "Okay, this place is good, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and there are mountains and rocks in the palace. There are more elements that can be carved, and it is better to be here. It all came naturally."

  This... is like a city dweller coming to the countryside, with a curiosity-seeking mentality.

  Fang Jifan said: "My minister is bold and wants to..."

   "Go ahead." Emperor Hongzhi came out of the chariot, hands behind his back.

  Fang Jifan said: "Can you ask Your Majesty to remove these guards and eunuchs? Since Your Majesty is here, there is no need for these people to wait on you. It is enough for you and a few disciples to entertain you here."

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly, looked around, and did not rush to answer.

  Xiao Jing took the opportunity and said: "Fang Jifan, don't be rude."

  Fang Jifan glanced at Xiao Jing, but said: "Since you are a guest, you can do as you please."

   "..." How dare you say such words to the emperor?

  Xiao Jing also convinced Fang Jifan, and was dumbfounded.

Emperor Hongzhi was indeed a magnanimous emperor, he was not angry at all, instead he smiled and said: "It's a good guest to do as you please, if that's the case, then I will agree, Xiao Banban, withdraw people from Sanli, only you Stay, let the rest leave, I will be a guest once, and let's see how the host of Fang Qing's family treats me."

  Xiao Jing had no choice but to pass the decree obediently.

  Empress Zhang and Zhu Xiurong were in the same chariot, Empress Zhang looked outside, puzzled, and said, "Why did everyone leave?"

  Zhu Xiurong also looked out curiously through the gauze curtain. She has been famous for this Xishan for a long time. To her, everything is new.

   "Let's go, go for a walk."

  Empress Zhang pulled Zhu Xiurong, and Zhu Xiurong hurriedly stroked her temple hair before getting off the chariot.

   All of a sudden, this Xishan was much cleaner.

Originally, because it was close to the Nianguan Academy, school was over, and the craftsmen, miners, and farmers here all returned home with this year's surplus, and the captains and wrestlers of the Thousand Households in Tuntian also took a rest, so here in Xishan, only Fang Jifan and Five disciples, and some people who stayed here specially for hospitality.

  Emperor Hongzhi took a step forward, and Empress Zhang also came forward with her sons and daughters. The accompanying ministers, led by Mr. Liu, surrounded the whole group!

  Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty can visit the humble house, minister..."

  Emperor Hongzhi waved his hands with experience and said, "Don't talk about these useless things. Next, it's time to find a place to sit."

Fang Jifan smiled, and he glanced at Zhu Xiurong, Zhu Xiurong was a little timid, but still smiled at Fang Jifan, but suddenly saw his brother staring at him, looking at himself, then at Fang Jifan, Zhu Xiurong hurriedly looked away, and leaned slightly against his mother.

Fang Jifan was surprised and said: "Sit? This... this... Reporting back to Your Majesty, many people here in Xishan have returned to their hometowns, so... Your Majesty wants to sit... It's okay, but... I'm afraid that there will be no food. I heard from the crown prince that His Majesty has always I want to experience the suffering of the people, so I thought of a way."

   "Let's listen to it." Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan. He knew that Fang Jifan would come to make a fool of himself, so he was not surprised.

  Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty and the lords may as well pick vegetables and fruits by themselves, and pick whatever you want to eat. After picking, the minister and the prince, and... find some people who can cook, and cook them together for Your Majesty before serving them!"

"What?" Shen Wen, a Hanlin University scholar, led a group of Hanlin scholars. Before he came, he was in a good mood. His Majesty paid more and more attention to Xishan Academy, and his son was still in the academy, so he came here before the Chinese New Year. Take a break with Shengjia, and come here with the mood of landscape!

  But who knows, Fang Jifan is really daring.

  Ahem, who are we? Your Majesty won’t say anything. The Empress Dowager and Her Royal Highness are all here, and the old man, who is the old man? Let's pick vegetables and fruits ourselves...

  This... What does this mean for us?

  He suddenly said sharply: "Uncle Xinjian, don't be presumptuous, His Majesty is here, this is not the time for you to joke."

  Fang Jifan directly spread his hands and said: "I am not joking, this is how I arranged it."

  Emperor Hongzhi also couldn't laugh or cry.

In his imagination, at this time, he should be lying comfortably in a certain mountain stream, watching the rushing stream, the crystal clear water, there are a few fish, and his wife and children are snuggling beside him , The Hanlin officials looked at the mountains and rivers not far away, and looked at the endless field ridges. They were very happy with poetry and recited poems for themselves.

  But who would have thought...Fang Jifan would play this trick...

  Zhu Houzhao winked at Fang Jifan with a smile, but said with a smile: "Father, you are all here..."

   "..."

   It's all here, forget it, you can't chop Fang Jifan into meat sauce, right?

  Although Zhu Houzhao was helping Fang Jifan to speak, he felt that he was cheated by Fang Jifan. You said that you arranged it, but I eagerly entered the palace to invite people and provoked so many people. How could you, Fang Jifan, do this?

   This is going to be bad.

  Emperor Hongzhi pondered for a long time, then he said slowly: "Women's family members go to rest for a while, I will go pick."

   "No." Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty and Your Royal Highness are in good health. If you come here, if you rest, it will be boring. You might as well give it a try."

  Fang Jifan is very desperate.

  …
