In order to teach the emperor's grandson to read, Fang Jifan asked Liu Jie, the champion of the current department, to teach in person.

To put it bluntly, where the emperor and grandson are, Liu Jie has to be there.

Hanlin Academy, simply take leave.

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

In addition, it is to recognize words, Fang Jifan found some painters of the Franco, let them paint all kinds of chickens, ducks, cows and horses, etc., and then fill in the words.

He tried his best to hope that the emperor and grandson would be able to learn on the basis of maintaining childlike interest.

This preschool education is indeed a very troublesome thing.

Fang Jifan also formulated a detailed study schedule, and under the condition of ensuring rest, he had to learn arithmetic and literacy, in addition to some extracurricular activities.

Of course, these activities cannot be faked, they are led by Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan.

Pity......

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

In addition, the nurse in the palace was also invited, this nurse grew up feeding Zhu Zaimo, although there is no **, but this nurse's duty, with her to take care of it, is meticulous.

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

If you have the ability, you will come to fight the prince, hum, if you kill the prince, our successor will be afraid of you!

The weather is cold.

Fang Jifan put on a sweater woven by Zhu Houzhao, wrapped in a Qinci unicorn suit, and entered the palace on horseback.

The Francos had submitted their credentials in the name of Manchuria, in which they requested the Ming to set aside a piece of land so that their merchants could dock and trade.

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

At the same time, Francois sued the Ming fleet that overseas, there were signs of indiscriminate killing of innocents and destroying peace at sea, and believed that the Ming needed to restrain the fleet's behavior.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at this national letter, and he couldn't cry or laugh.

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

Liu Jian was stunned: "What is the basis of the Francophone man?" The old minister couldn't understand it. ”

Yes, the interaction between the Ming Dynasty and the vassal states has always been that the Ming Dynasty is the superior country, and the countries express their obedience.

But in this national letter, it seems that he doesn't know anything about the national policy of the Ming Dynasty, and his tone is not small.

Don't...... Is it because this Francois despises the Ming Dynasty, and is it because their national strength is far above the Ming Dynasty?

It's scary.

Xie Qian and Li Dongyang were also puzzled.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed bitterly: "Yes, I don't understand it a little, but the complacent Jinyiwei has already sent back the news." ”

Emperor Hongzhi's face was solemn: "Manraka, it is true that the country has been destroyed, only the remnants, retreat to the north of Manraka, and the rest of the land is occupied by the Francos, according to the report, the Francos only used a thousand people, and they defeated the Manchurian army of 50,000, this Franco, not to be underestimated." ”

Fang Jifan stood aside, he knew in his heart that His Majesty had summoned him for the sake of this Franco.

The record of 1,000 people defeating 50,000 people is still terrible.

Emperor Hongzhi rolled his eyes and looked at Fang Jifan: "Imperial grandson, are you okay?" ”

As soon as he talked about the emperor and grandson, Liu Jian and the others' hot eyes fell on Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan's face was as usual, it was still the same old saying, if you kill Zhu Houzhao, I will be afraid of you.

Fang Jifan said: "It's good." ”

Emperor Hongzhi wanted to continue to ask something, but it seemed that everyone else was there, so he sighed: "This Franco's national letter, show it to the successor." ”

Fang Jifan picked up the national letter, only glanced at it hastily, and then put it down, in fact, he already knew the content of this national letter.

Wang Xizuo's name is not wrong.

When the envoys of Franco's envoys arrived, they were overjoyed by the appearance of the king, and they were soon admitted to him, although the envoys were at first wary of the king, but as a 'great understanding', there were some things that could not be disulted with the king.

When the Francois people were discussing the content of the national letter, Wang Xizuo sent the general results of the discussion to Xishan.

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Franco, you can't be underestimated." This first case, asking for land, trade, trade is not bad, and the minister strongly agrees. ”

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "This is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but it ceded the Francois people, do you want to make me ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors?" ”

Fang Jifan shook his head: "Erchen means that the two countries are thoroughfares, exchange of whether there is anything wrong, but it needs to be reciprocal, Daming can set aside a piece of land, let the Francophone people operate there, the same reason, the Francophile people also need to set aside a piece of land, for my Daming fleet to dock, send envoys." ”

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

Fang Jifan shook his head: "There is no precedent, because the Francois will never agree." Your Majesty, haven't you seen it yet? Their terms are only demanded everywhere, but they are never willing to pay. Daming has thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and it is okay to set aside some land and allow its merchant ships to dock. But this Francois is the Kingdom of Portugal, and their land is not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, if they want to carve out the same land, they are afraid that they will have to jump on their feet. Therefore, for them, they only have to ask for it, either to take advantage of Ming's kindness, or to hope for Ming's weakness. But in any case, they are on their own, but they are not pulling out a dime. ”

Emperor Hongzhi's brows furrowed even deeper: "According to Qing's opinion, what should I do." ”

Fang Jifan didn't have time to think about it: "Ignore it and delay it first." Take a look at the next move of the Franciscan. ”

Emperor Hongzhi thoughtfully: "Between Yiqing, what will they do next?" ”

"They will send merchant ships to the area of the political envoy in Guangdong, saying that they have encountered a shipwreck and need to dock, and the Ming government will not be able to drive them into the sea and drown them all. Over there, as long as a fait accompli is created, the embassy here can take advantage of this to resubmit the credentials and bargain with the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Erchen thinks that the Francois have begun to understand me and have some understanding, and they will definitely adopt such a method."

Listen to what Fang Jifan said.

Xiao Jing on the side smiled: "Fang Duwei, we are in charge of the East Factory, as well as the personnel of these missions, all of them are staring at us, even if it is the Guangdong Political Envoy, especially the City Division, we also have people, if there is really any news, it will definitely come as soon as possible, Fang Duwei's words seem a bit excessive, how can it be like Fang Duwei, like the roundworm in the stomach of the Francois man, he actually said it so much, it seems to be true." ”

Emperor Hongzhi has gradually begun to pay attention to the problem of the Francois man, so on the one hand, he asked the factory guards to explore the Manchurian country, and on the other hand, he made some arrangements in Guangdong.

Of course, Xiao Jing didn't dare to slack off, it can be said that he was doing his best, the factory guard was here, he arranged it properly, and even in the Honglu Temple, the people who cooked and served the mission personnel were all secret agents of the East Factory, he consciously was impermeable, and he had already made a promise to Emperor Hongzhi, if there was any conspiracy among the Franco, he would have known it a long time ago, and His Majesty would have known it.

Can you Fang Jifan say a few words?

Our Dongchang factory, the job is going to be smashed, you are so powerful, can this Dongchang give it to you? ”

Fang Jifan suddenly crossed his hands and said, "Gonggong Xiao, this is your mistake, just because someone in Dongchang is staring, this kind of thing will not happen?" What is this East Factory, with clairvoyance and ears? ”

"......" Xiao Jing's words may not necessarily make things difficult for Fang Jifan, but he is in a hurry to defend the factory guard in front of His Majesty.

Who knew that Fang Jifan was more serious, so he said with a red face: "What we mean is that thousands of factory guards, and do their best for this, all the arrangements are up and down the East Factory, according to years of experience, it took countless hard work, and the layout was completed, as Fang Duwei said, the possibility is very small, Fang Duwei, the East Factory has been reborn under His Majesty's purge over the years...... Captain Fang, don't always assume that this sea route inspection department has been patrolling the seas off the coast of Guangdong all the time. ”

Fang Jifan felt that Xiao Jing, a rotten P-share guy, was quite insidious.

As an upright person, Fang Jifan actually found that he was a little behind.

Xiao Jing opened his mouth that His Majesty had purged the factory guards, which means that now the factory guards have a new look, which is the credit of His Majesty, Fang Jifan, don't doubt Your Majesty's ability.

Fang Jifan smiled and remained silent.

The eyes glanced at Ouyang Zhi.

He's tired, and he's past the age of tearing.

Ouyang Zhi saw that his teacher gave him a look, he waited for Zhao Hanlin, and only then did he realize something, and then, very hard, began to think about the conversation between Fang Cai Xiao Gonggong and his teacher, and finally realized it later, ah, it turns out that this Xiao Gonggong dared to scold my teacher.

Ouyang Zhi was righteous and awe-inspiring: "Gonggong Xiao, what does the matter of the factory guard have to do with Your Majesty?" If Your Majesty can do it himself, do you still need Gonggong Xiao to be the eunuch of the palm print of Dongchang, there may be omissions in everything, the family teacher just made some suggestions, and Gonggong Xiao sneered, what does this mean? ”

“……”

Xiao Jing suddenly felt a little unconfident, and said in his heart, Ouyang is waiting for the edict, let's ...... Isn't the relationship usually very good, why do you say that you will turn your face, yesterday I also picked the plums in the imperial garden, for you to taste, you also said delicious, really sweet.

…………

Noon Gate.

A report from the Guangdong political envoy has been quickly couriered into the palace.

The eunuch took the report, did not hesitate, and went directly to the warm pavilion.

Because it was an urgent report, the matter was very important, so when I arrived outside the warm pavilion, I immediately reported it.

And in the warm pavilion, Ouyang Zhi is still righteous and awe-inspiring: "Over the years, how many things have been done by the factory guard, this is the original intention of His Majesty to clean up the factory guard, and now how long has it been since the rectification, dare to say that the factory guard can do everything in every detail, and there is nothing wrong?" I don't think so! ”
