Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 802 Upright and awe-inspiring

  In order to teach the emperor's grandson to read, Fang Jifan asked Liu Jie, the number one scholar of the current subject, to teach in person.

   To put it bluntly, wherever the emperor's grandson is, Liu Jie must be there.

   At the Hanlin Academy, they simply asked for leave.

  Liu Jie had nothing to say, so he obediently obeyed his master's instructions.

   In addition, it is to recognize characters. Fang Jifan found some painters from Franz and asked them to draw various chickens, ducks, cows and horses, and then fill in the characters.

  He tried his best to hope that the emperor's grandson could learn while maintaining a childlike interest.

  This preschool education is really a lot of trouble.

  Fang Jifan also formulated a detailed study schedule. Under the condition of ensuring rest, he should not only learn arithmetic and word recognition, but also have some extracurricular activities.

  Of course, these activities cannot be done by others. Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan led them together.

pity…

  Xiao Xiaofang is still a little younger, otherwise, he could go to school with him.

In addition, the wet nurse in the palace was also invited. This wet nurse raised Zhu Zaimo and grew up. Although she has no breasts, but the role of the wet nurse, with her to take care of it, is naturally meticulous. .

  As for the mourning of the Manchu Dynasty, it has nothing to do with Fang Jifan.

  If you have the ability, you come and beat the prince, hum, if you kill the prince, I, Fang Jifan, will be afraid of you!

  The weather is cold.

  Fang Jifan put on a sweater woven by Zhu Houzhao, wrapped in a unicorn suit bestowed by the emperor, and rode his horse into the palace.

  Franji people have submitted a letter of credence in the name of the Manga Kingdom. In the letter of credence, they request Ming to set aside a piece of land so that their merchants can dock and do business.

  In addition to this, they also hope that their priests can be allowed to go ashore to preach.

   At the same time, the Fran robot sued the Deming Fleet for indiscriminate killing of innocent people and signs of disrupting the peace in the sea overseas, and believed that Deming should restrain the fleet's behavior.

  Emperor Hongzhi couldn't laugh or cry when he looked at the letter of credence.

  In the warm pavilion like spring, Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and handed the letter of credence to Liu Jian.

   Liu Jian looked astonished: "Franji, what is the basis? The old minister can't understand."

  Yes, the interaction between Daming and the vassal states has always been that Ming is the superior state, and all countries show respect.

   But in this letter of state, it seems that he doesn't know anything about Daming's national policy, let alone talk about it, and he speaks quite loudly.

  Could it be... because this Franji man despises Daming, because their national strength is far greater than that of Daming?

  It's scary.

  Xie Qian and Li Dongyang are also puzzled.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed bitterly: "Yes, I don't quite understand it, but Jin Yiwei, who is proud of Calais, has sent back the news."

Emperor Hongzhi's face was solemn: "Manlajia, the country has indeed been destroyed, only the remnants, retreated to the north of Manlajia, and the rest of the land was occupied by the Frangji people. People defeated the 50,000-strong army of Manchuga, this Franji should not be underestimated."

  Fang Jifan stood aside, he knew in his heart that His Majesty summoned him must be for this Francine matter.

   The record of defeating 50,000 people by a thousand people is still terrible.

  Emperor Hongzhi turned his eyes and looked at Fang Jifan: "Is your grandson okay?"

  As soon as the emperor's grandson was mentioned, Liu Jian and others' fiery eyes fell on Fang Jifan.

  Fang Jifan looked as usual, and the old saying goes, kill Zhu Houzhao, and I will be afraid of you.

  Fang Jifan said: "It's still good."

  Emperor Hongzhi wanted to continue to ask something, but he seemed to be hindered by the presence of other people, so he sighed: "This is Franji's credential, show it to Jifan."

  Fang Jifan picked up the credential, glanced at it hastily, and then put it down. In fact, he already knew the content of the credential.

  Wang Xizuo's name was not wrong.

After the envoys of Frangji arrived, they were unfamiliar with the place of life. The appearance of Wang Xizuo made them ecstatic, and soon accepted him in. 'Da Mingtong', there are some things that I really have to discuss with Wang Xizuo.

  While Frangji was discussing the content of the credential, Wang Xizuo sent the general discussion results to Xishan.

  Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Francois is a man, you should not underestimate it. This is the first case, asking for land and doing business. It is not bad to do business. I agree very much."

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "This is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but you ceded it to Frangji. Are you going to make me ashamed of my ancestors?"

Fang Jifan shook his head: "What I mean is that there is nothing wrong with exchanging supplies between the two countries, but they need to be reciprocal. Daming can set aside a piece of land for Franji to operate there. The same reason, Fran Robots also need to set aside a piece of land for our Ming Fleet to dock and send envoys there.”

  Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Fang Jifan: "This is inevitably a precedent."

Fang Jifan shook his head: "I can't set a precedent, because Franji will never agree. Your Majesty, don't you understand? Their terms are all about asking, but they are never willing to pay. Daming has thousands of miles of land, draw some Land, allowing its merchant ships to dock, is no problem for Da Ming. But this Franji is the Kingdom of Portugal, and their land is not as good as Da Ming. As far as they are concerned, they only want to ask Da Ming for money, or they want to take advantage of Da Ming's kindness, or they hope for Da Ming's weakness. But no matter what, they themselves are nothing."

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned even deeper: "According to Qing's opinion, what should be done."

  Fang Jifan didn't have time to think about it: "Ignore it, let's procrastinate for a while. Let's see the next move of the Franc robot."

  Emperor Hongzhi was thoughtful: "Among Yiqing, what will they do next?"

"They will send merchant ships to Guangdong's chief envoy for an excuse, saying that they have encountered a shipwreck and need to land and dock. The Ming government will not drive them into the sea, so that they all drown. Good intentions, give them some help to help them out, but once they settle down, nine out of ten will not leave. Over there, as long as a fait accompli is created, the mission here can take advantage of this, Resubmit your credentials and bargain with Daming."

   "My son thought that Franji had already begun to understand me better, and they would definitely adopt such a method."

   Listening to what Fang Jifan said was serious.

Xiao Jing on the side smiled: "Captain Fang, we are in charge of the Dongchang, and the personnel of these missions are all watched by our people, even if it is the chief envoy of Guangdong, especially the department of Shibo, We also have people. If there is any news, it will definitely come from the first time. Fang Duwei's words seem a bit too much. How come Fang Duwei, like the roundworm in the belly of Franji, actually said it It’s so serious, it’s as if it’s real.”

  Emperor Hongzhi has gradually begun to pay attention to the issue of Frangji. Therefore, while asking the factory guards to inquire about Manga, he made some arrangements in Guangdong's chief envoy.

Of course Xiao Jing didn't dare to be negligent, it can be said that he did his best, here at the factory guard, he arranged it properly, even in Honglu Temple, the people who cook and wait for the mission staff are all spies from the East Factory, he Consciously being airtight, he had already made a guarantee with Emperor Hongzhi that if the Frangji people had any conspiracy, he would have known about it and reported it to His Majesty.

  Can you, Fang Jifan, say a few words less?

  Our Dongchang factory owner is about to lose his job. You are so powerful, can this Dongchang be given to you? "

  Fang Jifan immediately crossed his hands and said: "Eunuch Xiao, this is your fault, just because someone in Dongchang is watching, such a thing will not happen? What is this Dongchang, with clairvoyance and ears?"

   "..." In fact, what Xiao Jing said just now was not necessarily to make things difficult for Fang Jifan, but he was anxious to defend the factory guard in front of His Majesty.

Who knows that Fang Jifan is more serious, and his face is red and his ears are equatorial: "What we mean is that thousands of factory guards have worked hard for this. All the layouts are made by the East Factory. Based on years of experience, it took countless hard work to complete the layout. As Fang Duwei said, the possibility is very slim. Fang Duwei, Dongchang has been completely reborn under His Majesty's purge these years... Fang Duwei, don't always assume, the Sea Road Inspection Department has always been there. Patrolling off the coast of Guangdong."

  Fang Jifan felt that Xiao Jing, a guy with bad P stock, was quite insidious.

  As an upright person, Fang Jifan unexpectedly found that he was somewhat at a disadvantage.

  Xiao Jing said that His Majesty cleaned up the factory guards, meaning that the factory guards are now completely new, thanks to His Majesty, Fang Jifan, don't doubt His Majesty's ability.

  Fang Jifan smiled and remained silent.

   He glanced at Ouyang Zhi.

  He's tired and past the age of being a tear-off.

When Ouyang Zhi saw his teacher winking at him, he just realized something when he was waiting for an imperial edict. Then, he tried very hard to recall the conversation between Eunuch Xiao and his teacher just now, but he realized it later, ah, it turns out that Eunuch Xiao, How dare you insult my mentor.

Ouyang Zhi said righteously: "Eunuch Xiao, what does your majesty have to do with the matter of factory guards? If your majesty can do it himself, do you still need Eunuch Xiao to be the **** of the East Factory? There may be omissions in everything, and the teacher just mentioned it." For some suggestions, Eunuch Xiao would sneer at them, what is the meaning of this?"

   "..."

Xiao Jing suddenly lost his confidence, and said in his heart, Ouyang waited for the edict, we... usually have a good relationship, why don't you turn your back on it? Yesterday I picked plums from the imperial garden, and I'll give you a taste, you Said it was delicious, really sweet.

  …

Meridian Gate.

  A report from the chief envoy of Guangdong was sent to the palace by express courier.

  The **** received the report without any hesitation, and went directly to the Nuan Pavilion.

  Because it is an urgent report and the matter is of great importance, so when you get outside the warm pavilion, report it immediately.

But in the Nuan Pavilion, Ouyang Zhi is still awe-inspiring: "The factory guards have messed up so many things in these years. This is the original intention of His Majesty to clean up the factory guards. It's only been a long time since the clean-up, and I dare to say that the factory guards can do it." When everything is fine and detailed, there are no mistakes? I don’t think so!”
