Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 823 Court Discussion

  Emperor Hongzhi was not a young man.

  He naturally knew that offending too many ministers would lead to unpredictable consequences.

  Prince and Fang Jifan, these two guys are really confused.

   Really think these people are easy to mess with?

  Emperor Hongzhi said: "You must handle this matter properly, otherwise, if something goes wrong, I will not be able to protect you."

  Zhu Houzhao said in his heart, what could go wrong, isn't it just being scolded? Do they still dare to beat people?

  So he said with a smile: "Father, for the great plan of the father, for our Daming country, for so many refugees, the minister is not afraid of any pressure, and there are thousands of mistakes, all of which are the fault of the minister."

  Emperor Hongzhi seemed to have made up his mind.

  Fang Jifan is right.

   If the refugee problem is not resolved, the world will perish; if you offend some Qingliu ministers, at most, you will be scolded.

  It's just...even if it's being scolded...

After all, everyone cares about their reputation behind them, so don't label others as a foolish king, it's really unreasonable, he said melancholy: "Come on, let's just leave it at that, you are a prince, you are wrong all the time, I can't blame you, I am the Son of Heaven, I should bear what I have to bear. You guys built this house for me to be stronger, so don't provoke any public grievances."

  Fang Jifan nodded and bowed, like a kowtow, with a flattering face: "Yes, yes, my son is a man of conscience, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

  Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand: "You guys talk less these days, and make less trouble. You must not let people take advantage of your loopholes. Okay, let's go."

  The two felt relieved, His Majesty's attitude is self-evident, which clearly shows that they are willing to support.

   With the support of His Majesty, things will be easier.

  For those clients who were crying and clamoring to buy a house, Fang Jifan was not polite, he slapped him, oh... oh oh, you are big, as for the others, hehe...

  Zhu Houzhao followed excitedly.

   "Old Fang, the one who impeached us was Liu Kuan, the chief censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Are you familiar with this person? If you don't, let's find someone. Stop him on the street, find an old Chenghuang Temple, and beat him to death."

  Fang Jifan glanced at Zhu Houzhao.

   Sighed, His Royal Highness is still not calm enough.

  He patted Zhu Houzhao on the shoulder: "Your Highness, don't get excited, didn't you agree to convince people with virtue?"

   "..." Zhu Houzhao curled his lips: "It's just that I can't swallow this breath."

  ...

  Liu Kuan is a person with a sense of justice. The reason why he impeached the move to the new palace was because the inner city was already howling.

  In many halls, many people couldn't help scolding.

   This is a trend, and I have made my own. Although it was aimed at Fang Jifan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, after all, behind him was raging public opinion.

   Therefore, after he played, he immediately got a response, and there were quite a lot of people who responded.

Everyone is already dissatisfied, how do you live these days, every now and then, the big guys have to run to the Daming Palace, and their legs are broken. In the future, when the new government office is built, it will be even more terrifying. From now on, they will have to stay in the new city every day. How many people are old and young, running back and forth, how are they going to live these days.

  As for buying a new house, when I think about the price, I am really overwhelmed. Many people either can’t afford it, or they can’t swallow it. Why should they buy it? I live well now, why?

   If there is injustice, there will be a cry!

   It's February 15th.

   Today is the day of the court meeting.

   As the censor of the capital, Liu Kuan has done a lot of homework.

  He can't stand it.

  His Majesty has kept so many impeachment memorials, which obviously means that he favors His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Fang Jifan, and refuses to move back to the Forbidden City.

  Since His Majesty has left the impeachment memorial, then...just question him face to face.

   There are many people who encourage Liu Kuan, and even some bigwigs in the temple secretly expressed their support. Thinking that this cannot go on like this gave Liu Kuan full confidence.

  Since it was a court meeting, the ministers of the fifth rank and above got into the sedan chair almost before dawn. Because the court meeting was held in the Daming Palace, they had to go early, and later, I was afraid they would have lunch there.

   When we arrived at Daming Palace, the outside almost became a big construction site.

  Countless streams of people shuttled there, those who built workshops, those who laid foundations, and scholars in shawls and Confucian shirts, with design drawings in their hands, led the foremen around, and countless coolies dug the foundation and tamped the soil.

   It was a lively scene.

  New palaces, residences, government offices, these countless buildings require so much manpower that the dust billows here.

   But once you pass the imperial road and get close to the Daming Palace, here is another scene. The magnificent and majestic palace city is extraordinarily spectacular under the sun.

  The Daming Palace also has the Meridian Gate and the Daming Gate, and all the officials are waiting at the Daming Gate.

  Here, many ministers have already suffered from backaches. They are tired all the way, and those who complain in private are whispering.

  Looking at these gloomy colleagues, Liu Kuan knew in his heart that the time had come for everyone to push the wall down. As long as he raised his arms and shouted, then this terrible trend would crush everything.

   No matter how partial or selfish your majesty is, he will definitely not oppose civil and military officials.

   He even thought about it, the big deal is that he offended Long Yan and was beaten with a tappet, simply to fulfill his reputation of being upright.

   "Dare to ask, but Liu Yushi?"

   Someone stopped Liu Kuan with a smile.

   Liu Kuan looked back and saw that it was Fang Jifan.

  Fang Jifan was wearing a imperial bullfighting suit. He was covered in bright red and had a winged hat on his head. This guy was actually soft-skinned and delicate-looking.

  Liu Kuan thought to himself, maybe he wants to buy Liu Kuan off me.

  Hmph, who am I, Liu Kuan? I am a dignified censor, Wei Zheng of the Ming Dynasty. Although you Fang Jifan is notorious, I, Liu Kuan, are not easy to mess with.

   Liu Kuan said with a sullen face, "What advice do you have?"

  A pair of impersonal arrogance.

  Fang Jifan knows this kind of person very well, he has a big temper, represents the moon every day, and thinks he has grasped the truth.

  Fang Jifan smiled and said: "It's just to say hello, Liu Yushi, I have admired your name for a long time."

  Liu Kuan raised his chin, and said righteously: "Since you know my name, why should Captain Fang need to talk too much?"

  Are you still in good spirits? Is it because Fang Jifan has been convincing people with virtue recently, and his tail is up?

  Then, Liu Kuan didn't say anything, and said with a flick of his sleeves: "Fang Duwei, I have something to do."

   As he spoke, he stood aside.

   All of a sudden, Fang Jifan was a little embarrassed when he touched his nose.

  I usually treat people kindly, and many people treat me with a smile. It seems that today, I have kicked my foot on the iron plate.

  Fang Jifan had no choice but to say haha ​​indifferently.

  At this time, the Meridian Gate opened, and many people almost limped and filed into the palace. After sitting in sedan chairs for two hours, most of them still had a lot of old bones and were tired.

   Seeing all this, Liu Kuan's eyes were moist.

  Look, anyone who is not blind should know how frantic these people are to collect money. Is this still a human thing? Things that are not as good as pigs and dogs!

   All the ministers entered the spacious and bright Fengtian Hall.

Liu Kuan hated it even more in his heart, hum, ingenious obscene skills, as a king, he should be frugal and not advocating luxury. Look at what Fengtian Temple looks like now. It is so comfortable to step on the floor tiles. The light is transparent, the vision is wide, and the whole body is warm. Is this... like the place where the emperor and ministers should stay?

   All the ministers stood still, and Emperor Hongzhi came in wearing a crown suit. He was smiling, but behind the smile, there seemed to be deep worry.

  Since Liu Kuan played the performance first, the impeachment memorials have come like snowflakes.

  Although they all stayed in the middle school, the resentment and anger represented by these hundreds of letters of impeachment is really terrible.

  Prince and Fang Jifan are two guys who are really seeking the country, and their thoughts are also correct. But…

  Emperor Hongzhi had a premonition that something would happen today. He slowly got on the golden throne, then sat on the imperial chair, looked around, but remained silent.

  Liu Jian stood up.

  He is a cabinet scholar, so naturally he knows that there is an undercurrent surging in the court. Although he is calm and calm, he probably sensed something.

  Liu Jian said with a stern face, "Your Majesty, the old minister listed the matters discussed today..."

   "Wait a minute!" Liu Kuan stood up.

  He was awe-inspiring, as if he was about to die generously at any time, and immediately left the shift.

   Liu Jian frowned.

   appears displeased.

   Court meetings often have rules for court meetings, but not everyone jumps out and speaks brazenly. If everyone is like this, isn't it a mess?

   But sometimes, there will always be some people who will break the rules.

   "I... have something to play!" Liu Kuan came to the hall and bowed down.

  Emperor Hongzhi still had a smile on his face, but this smile was a little stiff, and he had a headache.

  I hope things are still under control.

  Since Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, the atmosphere has gradually changed, and the emperor should show due benevolence.

   "What did Ai Qing play?"

  Emperor Hongzhi said, but couldn't help but look at Fang Jifan.

   seems to be saying, take a look, now I know the trouble.

  Liu Kuan raised his head, and immediately his eyes were red: "I have something to ask, I dare to ask Your Majesty, why there is no cabinet vote, and there has never been any approval from the palace, and there is no response at all."

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned, not wanting to talk to him, but said: "Oh, is there any memorial from the Qing family?" He deliberately looked at Xiao Jing.

  Xiao Jing then smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the servant seems to have some impressions, but your Majesty has been overworked in recent days and is taking care of himself. I think he was negligent."

  Emperor Hongzhi took a meaningful look at Xiao Jing, then smiled, and said to Liu Kuan with a pleasant face: "Look at Liu Qing's family... this is a bit unfortunate. Next time, after I have seen it, let's talk about it."

   Liu Kuan was a little confused.

   Can you still play like this?

  …………

  Chapter 5 has been delivered, I am so tired, my hands and neck hurt so much, please support!

   Take a nap, Tiger sets the alarm clock, let's continue tomorrow!
