Chapter 635: The Heavenly Empire

“……”

Fang Jifan's words are strong, and even Confucius took it out and 'whipped' it fiercely.

I really don't blame the prince for messing around.

Confucius taught, there is a debtor who is wronged, go out and turn left, and go to Qufu.

Ma Wensheng was a few ministers, his face was green, and he wanted to kill someone.

The scholars in the world are all saints, and no one dares to ridicule the saints. Naturally, Fang Jifan didn't care, but Ma Wensheng couldn't stand it when he heard it.

When Zhu Houzhao heard it, he was happy: "That's right! ”

Emperor Hongzhi listened to Fang Jifan's strong words, and thought about how to refute it, but when he heard Zhu Houzhao say yes, he said angrily: "Right what? ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "It is Confucius who taught the palace, I don't believe that my father and the emperor go to read the book by himself, Confucius worships etiquette, and the people of Annam proclaim themselves emperors, this is the collapse of etiquette, the father is the son of heaven, and he actually ignores it, father, there are some words, the sons and daughters do not vomit and are unhappy, the world, it is the ancestors and the ancestors who beat it down." My father said again and again in the past, the ancestors and the ancestors, it is difficult to start a business, did my father say this? Today, the ancestors and the ancestors passed the throne to the father, and now there is Annan who ignores the authority of the Celestial Empire and regards the discipline of the Celestial Dynasty as nothing, and the father and the emperor actually turn a blind eye, and the sons want to ask, is the father worthy of the ancestors and the ancestors? ”

“……”

Emperor Hongji's chest rose and fell.

Zhu Houzhao said: "The ancestors are the ancestors of the father and the emperor, and they are also the ancestors of the sons, the ancestors have spirits in the sky, and they know such things, so they have to be angry, no, they must be angry." Of course, the son did not blame the father, the father just didn't notice it for a while, but there is a saying that the king is worried about the humiliation of the minister, and the father is being tricked by the Annan people like an idiot, and the son is ...... The sons and daughters share their father's worries, what is wrong? The father wants to blame, he can only blame himself, he let his sons study, learn from Confucius, what monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, sons and sons, sons and sons have learned, Annan does not abide by the way of ministers, and sons share worries for their fathers, of course, and now, the father and emperor want to blame for this incident, and the sons have nothing to say, so kill the sons. ”

Snap and kneel on the ground, which means, I am proud of the sky, ah no, I Zhu Houzhao, I am not convinced!

"Brute, you dare to use strong words!" Emperor Hongji was furious.

Zhu Houzhao thought that Fang Jifan's words would make his father speechless, and his father would definitely be ashamed of his words.

Who knows...... It's a bit of a joke.

Emperor Hongzhi was actually furious, against you, you must know that as a monarch's father, the standard of treating people is different, Fang Jifan can be forced, because he is a minister, he supports this, as long as he speaks his truth and shows his intentions, as long as Fang Jifan has no selfish intentions, he is really dedicated to the court, with the loyalty of the Fang family for generations, or for the sake of the son-in-law, naturally everything can be forgiven.

But Zhu Houzhao is different.

Zhu Houzhao is the crown prince and the future emperor, this guy is here all day long, is he still like a prince?

Zhu Houzhao immediately coaxed: "Father, if you have something to say, you have something to say." ”

Emperor Hongzhi said angrily: "Ladies and gentlemen, you can step down. ”

"......" Zhu Houzhao was a little confused.

Ma Wensheng was very cooperative: "The minister will retire." ”

Zhang Mao reacted: "The old minister has also retired, Your Majesty ......" He wanted to say, Your Majesty should be lighter, don't beat it to death, but after thinking about it, forget it, let's fight, if you don't hit the house for three days, why does my son have a chance, isn't it just beaten out?

The rest of the people gave up their hands one after another, and were about to retire.

Fang Jifan saw that it was not good, and hurriedly got up: "The minister retreats." ”

Turn around and leave.

Emperor Hongzhi pulled his face and kept silent.

Zhu Houzhao was frightened, looking at Fang Jifan, Fang Jifan was just looking forward to slipping away quickly, he was hungry, he went back to find Mr. Wen, made a little wine, drank some wine, and ate delicious food.

But at this time, a eunuch came in a hurry: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Annam, Ruan Van is here again, saying that he is asking to see His Majesty." ”

Since the war between Annan and the Ming Dynasty, this Annan envoy has come to ask for a meeting every day.

Emperor Hongzhi ordered people to block the car repeatedly, and he did not want to see him.

Today...... Here we go again.

Emperor Hongzhi said as usual: "No." ”

The eunuch was silent for a while before he said, "Your Majesty, that man said that if he didn't see him, he would die outside the noon gate...... Last night, he had prepared a coffin. ”

This person is strong.

As an envoy, on behalf of the state of Annan, stationed in this capital, specifically to negotiate with the Ming monarchs, Ruan Wen in the capital, has lived for seven years, in these seven years, as an envoy, he not only has an understanding of the Ming monarchs and ministers, over the years, but also for the country of Annan, for a lot of benefits.

Now that the Ming Dynasty suddenly conquered Annam, the situation took a turn for the worse, Ruan Wen was shocked, and he contacted some good ministers in Beijing everywhere, but obviously, in this regard, many people who had a good personal relationship with Ruan Wen had no choice.

He came many times, but he didn't have a chance to meet him, so he simply made a desperate bet.

Obviously, this person knows a little about Emperor Hongzhi, and knows that Emperor Hongzhi is still a generous person, so he is forced to die.

Emperor Hongzhi was silent, sat down, surprisingly calm, picked up the teacup on the case, took a sip of tea, but the tea was a little cold, and Emperor Hongzhi put the teacup down: "Call it." ”

The people who originally wanted to retire stopped at this moment, and the original maps were also put away by the eunuchs.

Zhu Houzhao had palpitations in his heart, and was glad that he had escaped a catastrophe for the time being.

After a while, Ruan Wen saw that he was wearing the dress of Annan, entered the palace, and said with tears in his eyes: "The ministers have seen His Majesty the Ming Emperor, the ministers are in Beijing, and there is no day when they are not walking on thin ice, and the ministers are burdened with heavy responsibilities, but somehow, the ministers are angry with Tianyan, and the supreme kingdom suddenly conquered the country of the ministers. ”

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Nguyen Van Van .

Ruan Wen's skin was a little dark and thin, and although his words were full of fear, what he said was neither humble nor arrogant.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "I heard that Li Han, the king of Annam, is the self-proclaimed son of heaven? ”

"This ......" Ruan Wen thought for a while, "The minister doesn't know about this." ”

"How could you not know? I also heard that the king of Annam is in the same way as me! ”

Ruan Wendao: "Punishment without teaching is abuse; If there is a mistake in the lower country, Your Majesty should apply for punishment first, if the lower country does not change, Your Majesty will raise troops, which is excusable, but it is rash to ......"

Emperor Hongzhi was annoyed.

It's no wonder that Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao are two guys, Zhen Zhen has words, although they are strong words, but after all, there is still a reason, after all, this Annan country is indeed hateful.

Emperor Hongzhi said sharply: "Is this what a vassal should do?" Over the years, my rewards to Annam have been more generous than those of other countries, but you claim to be the emperor, and it is said that you also regard me as the Northern Dynasty. Do you think I am a fool? ”

"Don't dare." Ruan Wendao: "The ministers are here in the hope that His Majesty will issue an order to withdraw the troops and the two countries will rebuild the old friendship." ”

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "It is difficult to recover the water, and now, if you don't break Annam, it will be difficult for me to sleep and eat, how can there be any reason to retreat?" ”

Nguyen Van was desperate in his heart.

I know that at this time, my responsibilities are completely over.

Having said that, his last effort did not make the Ming Emperor take back his fate, so ...... It is time to end his mission and return to his homeland, and since then, Annan and Daming have no possibility of repair.

Ruan Wen couldn't help but feel monstrous anger in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "Since Your Majesty has made up your mind, the ministers have no choice but to decide to return to China tomorrow, and when the time comes, they will have to meet Da Ming on the battlefield." ”

Emperor Hongji did not make a sound.

Ruan Wen also said: "The country of Annan lives in the West, respects Confucius and Mencius, and descends from the monarch, all of whom are knowledgeable; Today, the Ming Dynasty is conquering our country, and there are 300,000 people in Annan with armor, and there are thousands of good generals, and the soldiers are like clouds. Now that His Majesty has made up his mind, the minister has nothing to say, so he has no choice but to meet each other. The monarch of the minister, since the great cause of the ancestors, has worked hard to govern the country, the country of Annan, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, today, and look at who will kill the deer. ”

Since you are leaving, of course, you will leave with a cruel word, so that after returning to China, you will also have an explanation.

The Ming Dynasty did not have a tradition of killing envoys.

Therefore, Ruan Wen's words were very polite.

Emperor Hongzhi's face sank.

Zhang Mao said sharply: "When death is on the verge of death, you dare not be ashamed." ”

Ruan Wen smiled and looked at Zhang Mao: "The British father, he didn't also fight in Annan at the beginning, but what is the result, if the father has a spirit in the sky, he will never want the British father to say something unashamed." ”

"You ......" Zhang Mao was furious.

This is an insult to my father.

At the beginning, Emperor Wen conquered Annan, and his father, Zhang Fu, entered Annan for the capture of generals, although the road was like a bamboo, but the rebellion of the Annan people was prosperous day by day, and it was overwhelming......

Zhang Mao said loudly: "I beg Your Majesty, the quasi-ministers will lead troops into Annan, if they don't break through Annan, the ministers will ......."

Emperor Hongzhi pressed his hand, he obviously knew that this Ruan Wen's intention was to provoke the anger of the Ming monarchs and ministers.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "I don't want to fight with Qing, tomorrow, I will order someone to escort you back to China, as Qing said, when the time comes, the victory will be decided on the battlefield." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Ruan Wen nodded: "From the perspective of the minister, Your Majesty is still sage, but compared with the monarch of the minister, Your Majesty's wisdom is not as good as that of the minister. The victory or defeat on the battlefield depends by no means on the number of soldiers, but on the courage and strategy of the commanders of the three armies, perhaps the next time, when the minister comes to meet His Majesty again, he will no longer be the envoy of the lower country, see the Son of Heaven of the upper country, but the envoy of the Southern Dynasty, see the Son of Heaven of the Northern Dynasty, these words of the minister may be a little rude, this is the minister's heartfelt words, please also ask Your Majesty to ...... Excuse me! ”
