Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 847 Family scandal

  Zhu Houzhao was happy, scratched his head, and smiled at Fang Jifan: "Unexpectedly, you can still predict the prophets, old Fang, you really deserve to be the uncle of the Taoist priest who is a mob..."

  Zhu Houzhao's smile stopped suddenly: "Then why did Xiao Jing come here? How could he come without the emperor's will?"

  Fang Jifan sighed: "Your Highness, Xiao Jing is here to deliver an order, and wants to take the emperor and grandson back."

   "You agreed?" Zhu Houzhao was taken aback.

  Fang Jifan said seriously: "Of course I sternly refuse."

Zhu Houzhao heaved a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay." Suddenly, his face changed slightly: "That's not right, you just said, just said, it was Ben Gong who told him to go away. Is this how you refused? Lao Fang, you... "

   Fang Jifan looked sad when he saw Zhu Houzhao.

At this moment, Fang Jifan was possessed by the sage of Confucius. He patted Zhu Houzhao's shoulder lightly, and said earnestly: "His Royal Highness, when Xiao Jing delivered the decree, Fang Jifan, dare to refuse. Refusing is to disrespect the decree and disrespect it. Kill the head."

   Zhu Houzhao was a little dizzy.

  Dare you know that if you want to kill your head, I, Zhu Houzhao, deserve it right?

Fang Jifan sighed: "Of course, it's okay for Fang Jifan to be the emperor's grandson, isn't it just a loss of head? Others lose their heads, but our Fang Jifan can't lose his head? But when I think about it carefully, we still have to sell the house. Think about the Jinghang Avenue, if I die, what should I do with this Jinghang Avenue, what should I do with the land of His Royal Highness? I thought about it, I Fang Jifan can’t die, I have to compromise, I have to live and die, how easy it is, But living hard is not easy, after thinking about it, only His Highness the Crown Prince can save me, Your Highness, you and I are brothers, regardless of each other, you... don't mind."

  Zhu Houming just wanted to beat Fang Jifan, but suddenly, he felt very reasonable.

He thought about it for a long time, and was happy: "Understood, you may kill your head if you disobey the order, but I am different. I am the prince. No matter how mad the father is, what can he do? It's just a beating, I have rough skin and thick flesh, you don't have to worry, I will take care of the beating for you."

  Fang Jifan thought to himself, I'm actually...really...not worried at all.

  Anyway, you are beaten for committing suicide, and you are beaten for taking the blame. It seems that there is not much difference.

   But to be honest, Fang Jifan still likes Xiao Zhu very much, Xiao Zhu is a real person.

  Fang Jifan laughed and gave a thumbs up: "Your Highness is really admirable."

  Zhu Houzhao curled his lips: "However, tomorrow is the birthday of the father, and I will be beaten tomorrow, thinking about it, I feel a little nervous."

Fang Jifan said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, tomorrow is a day of great joy, and it is inconvenient for His Majesty to get angry in front of so many people. If His Majesty prepares a good gift for His Majesty's birthday, His Majesty may be happy, and Longyan will be very happy." Come on, forget about this matter if you don’t know for sure.”

  Zhu Houzhao sighed: "Whatever gift I give you, he can pick out the thorns."

   "That's not necessarily the case." Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao with a gloomy gaze, "I have prepared the gift for Your Highness. Your Majesty will be delighted when I see you."

   "..." Zhu Houzhao tilted his head: "Really?"

  …

  Xiao Jing knelt in Fengtian Hall, obediently, and recounted Fang Jifan's original words.

  Emperor Hongzhi's face was uncertain.

  Originally, Emperor Hongzhi was in a great mood when he found a reason to meet his own grandson.

  But who knew... Excitedly let Xiao Jing go, but got such a result.

  He was not only disappointed, but also a little angry.

   This is my grandson.

  He Zhu Houzhao is about to turn against him, dare to use his grandson to threaten me?

  So many debts, I haven't settled with that kid Zhu Houzhao yet.

  So, with a cold face: "Is this really what the prince said?"

   "No." Xiao Jing didn't dare to hide the fact that Emperor Hongzhi was a loyal slave: "It was Fang Jifan who said what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said."

   This is a bit of a mouthful.

  Emperor Hongzhi thought for a long time before he cleared up the relationship: "So, Fang Jifan really said that the prince really said it?"

   "This..." Xiao Jing also thought about it for a long time, and was a little stuck: "The servant thinks that it may not be that Fang Jifan really said that this is what His Royal Highness said. Maybe he used the prince to point out the fox's prestige."

   "Huh!" Emperor Hongzhi said, "Fang Jifan has always been a loyal and honest person. Do you have any misunderstandings about him?"

   "Don't dare, dare not." Xiao Jing sighed in his heart, but really wanted to ask if His Majesty was the scum of Fang Jifan, and there was any misunderstanding.

  People have subjective impressions.

  Because of this impression, Xiao Jing, the governor of the East Factory, had a very tiring life. For example, the fan from Dongchang, who found out about some **** things about Fang Jifan, and reported this matter to His Majesty, what did His Majesty think of it, instead, he became unhappy, and this displeasure was directed at Xiao Jing. Three months ago, This happened to Xiao Jing, when the report was delivered to the desk, His Majesty said lightly: "Xiao Banban, is there any enmity between you and Fang Jifan?"

   This light and fluffy sentence almost scared Xiao Jing to death.

   Doesn't this make it clear that His Majesty did not suspect Fang Jifan, but instead thought that he was retaliating?

  I am Xiao Jing, but I am telling the truth.

  In the future, Xiao Jing learned to be good, even if Fang Jifan did some **** and immoral things, he would often delete them from Dongchang's memorials.

  Thus, when His Majesty said these words now, he didn't have any temper at all, so he could only smile and say, "Your Majesty is wise."

  Emperor Hongzhi sat down, but looked melancholy: "My grandson has been gone for many days, and I haven't seen him. The love between grandparents and grandchildren is an ordinary thing, but it is so difficult when we reach the heavenly home."

   As he spoke, he looked disappointed and let out a sigh of relief: "If the crown prince dares to come tomorrow, I will beat him to death."

   "..." Xiao Jing thought in his heart, will the crown prince hate himself? Still hate Fang Jifan?

  ...

  Early the next morning, Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan were ready to leave.

   Not only that, Concubine Fang and Princess Taikang have already set off in their cars.

  The mighty imperial guards were guarding the convoy, Fang Jifan was not in a hurry to leave, he didn't like to ride around with a group of women on horseback, his patience was limited.

   After waiting for half an hour, Fang Jifan took the children for a run, and then rode into the palace with Zhu Houzhao.

   Arrived outside the Daming Palace, here, a hundred officials have long been wearing new clothes, ready to congratulate.

  Liu Jian seemed very happy. It was rare for His Majesty's birthday. As the head of the officials, he had to recite the congratulatory form in person.

  Other officials whispered to each other, all discussing that the housing price has increased by 50 taels compared to yesterday.

  As soon as he saw Fang Jifan who had killed a thousand swords, he came.

  Everyone showed disgust immediately, the sky was angry and people complained, if this guy doesn't go to Lingchi, God is so **** blind.

  But Fang Jifan got off his horse and strode forward, and everyone forced a smile: "Fang Duwei is good..."

  Fang Jifan ignored them.

  So, there were all kinds of teeth grinding sounds behind him.

  Although many people think that Fang Jifan should kill a thousand swords.

   It really made Fang Jifan kill a thousand swords, and they couldn't bear it.

  Everyone knows how to settle accounts. After all, they are all the top talents in Ming Dynasty. Whichever one is released, the IQ can beat everyone present here.

  If Fang Jifan really kills a thousand swords, this new city...may be finished.

  We have handed over our wealth and life to you, Fang Jifan. The new city is finished, big guy, it will be really miserable to be buried with Fang Jifan in this ruin.

Therefore, there are all kinds of contradictions in everyone's heart. Some people's greatest entertainment is to pick a flower, tear a petal, and say something in their mouth: "You should kill", and tear another petal: "You shouldn't kill." until the petals are torn off.

  The Meridian Gate opened.

  All people file into the palace.

   Zhu Houzhao was at the front, and Liu Jianwei followed behind tremblingly. With the experience of Zhu Houzhao carrying Liu Jian behind his back last time, Liu Jian's feelings towards Zhu Houzhao were very complicated.

  Zhu Houzhao walked slowly, and couldn't help looking back at Liu Jian: "Master Liu, I heard that you are sick."

  Liu Jian looked at Zhu Houzhao with a sad and complicated expression: "Thank you for your care, Your Highness, the old minister has largely recovered now."

   "When you get older, you must take good care of your body." Zhu Houzhao instructed.

   "Yes." Liu Jian looked as if he had eaten a fly: "The old minister will definitely follow His Highness's instructions."

  Zhu Houzhao strode forward with his head held high.

  In fact, he felt a little guilty, not knowing what would be waiting for him today.

   Waited until Fengtian Temple.

  Emperor Hongzhi had already ascended his seat, looked around, and when he saw Zhu Houzhao, he looked angry, but then he forced his face tight.

  All the ministers stood still, bowed down, and shouted long live three times.

  Emperor Hongzhi squeezed out a smile: "Okay, okay, okay, you don't need to be polite, let's be flat."

   All the ministers got up.

  But when I looked up, although I saw His Majesty was smiling, I felt that there seemed to be something hidden behind His Majesty's smile.

Emperor Hongzhi said indifferently: "Oh, I am one year older. The Qing family are competing to pay respects to my birthday, but I... I can't be happy in my heart. It has been nineteen years since I ascended the throne, nineteen years. In the past 19 years, according to the destiny of heaven, the ancestors of the Shaolie family, the emperor Zuo, have all over the world, and the king is in the wilderness. In these years, which day is not trembling, which day is not walking on thin ice? Now... I am a little bit bright The new atmosphere, all the ministers said, this is a sign of ZTE, ha... I am happy, but I am not happy. I am happy that I have been worthy of the fate of my ancestors these years, but what I am not happy about is , I have worked so hard all my life, but I don’t know when I will be the first.”

   He sighed.

   All the ministers felt strange, why His Majesty sighed so much today.

   Japan is happy today.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Although I am the son of heaven, although I have not yet reached the age of twilight, I have sons and grandchildren, but today only my son comes to congratulate me. , there are people who dare to disobey the order! Tell me, can you be happy?"

   "..." Zhu Houzhao looked confused.

  Saying this in person, forgetting even to expose the family ugliness, this seems... extremely outrageous.
