Chapter 363: Meritorious Service
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, a clear voice broke the silence.
It's still Fang Jifan!
Fang just slapped a sycophant indiscriminately, but Emperor Hongzhi didn't appreciate it at all, and directly told the truth, this Fang Jifan...... It's embarrassing to think about it, but His Majesty praised him for his merits, and this kid is probably grateful and has come to thank him.
But Fang Jifan was not embarrassed at all.
Fang Jifan said excitedly: "Your Majesty is really Shengming......"
"........." Everyone suddenly looked at Fang Jifan in amazement, is this okay?
Zhu Houzhao was also a little confused, looking at Lao Fang with strange eyes......
Fang Jifan said eloquently: "Your Majesty has the courage to admit his mistakes, which is rare in all dynasties, and the Son of Heaven has always taken credit for himself, but His Majesty never takes credit, but always bears the fault on himself." Such a mind is unprecedented, and the minister ...... There is indeed the crime of ten thousand deaths, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince forged a holy decree, but the reason why the minister is so rebellious is precisely because the minister knows that His Majesty is magnanimous, and it is by no means a chicken belly, but the minister never imagined that His Majesty not only forgave the minister's guilt, but also commented on the merit of the minister, His Majesty's benevolent heart and generous mind made the minister admire, and the minister's liver and brain were smeared, and it was difficult to repay the minister. β
Everyone had very different faces, this sycophant ......
They are also convinced.
To be a minister, after all, you should have some backbone.
There was only one person in the class, still expressionless, as if nothing had happened!
This person is Ouyang Zhi, and Ouyang Zhi, as a scholar of Hanlin, has the qualifications to participate in the court.
Therefore, some people who are familiar with Ouyang Zhi can't help but secretly glance at Ouyang Zhi at this time.
They wanted to know what Ouyang Zhi's expression would be when Ouyang Zhi's mentor was so stinky and shameless, as a protΓ©gΓ©.
It's a pity that Ouyang Zhi disappointed them, and he still looked expressionless for ten years.
Many people couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, worthy of Ouyang's waiting, it was really calm.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly and said: "Well, Qing and the crown prince, I will talk about meritorious deeds, by the way, and that Liu Jie." β
Next, the angry ministers demanded a crusade against North Korea.
Such a horrific thing happened that it seemed impossible to say if the imperial court was indifferent.
It's just that in the ensuing war of words, there seems to be another big problem.
It's easy to shout about crusade, but if you want to crusade, you have to make a big move.
If you want to eradicate Li Long, you must prepare at least 100,000 troops, and you must have countless grains and grass.
But if you mobilize a large army, it will not take a few months to work hard and consume countless money and food, but it is impossible.
At present, the imperial court has to go to the West and deal with natural disasters, and it is really impossible to lose national strength.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes were full of starlight, and he looked eager to try, and couldn't help but ask: "Father...... Erchen ......"
Emperor Hongzhi only listened to what he wanted to say, and he knew what Zhu Houzhao was going to do, but ......
You are the crown prince, and I praised you just now, and you are going to lead the troops to fight when you turn your head? I am such a son as you, how can I allow you to mess around like this?
Even if Zhu Houzhao was really able to win, Emperor Hongzhi would never allow Zhu Houzhao to ask for war, and he immediately interrupted Zhu Houzhao's words: "The prince and Fang Qing's family are tired, so retreat first." β
Zhu Houzhao was unwilling: "But ......"
"Go ahead." Emperor Hongzhi said in a solemn voice, not giving Zhu Houzhao the slightest chance.
After the change of Tumubao, any emperor became extremely cautious about his personal expedition, and Zhu Houzhao was the only prince today, so naturally there was no possibility of personal conquest.
Looking at his father's serious eyes, Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to say obediently: "The son of the minister retires." β
Fang Jifan also followed Zhu Houzhao to retreat, and in the Qinzheng Hall behind him, there were still controversies, whether to crusade, how to crusade, what soldiers and horses to produce, and how much food was needed, I was afraid of ...... It's noisy enough.
Zhu Houzhao was both eyebrows flying, but then, he became indignant, and the other party said: "Old Fang, this palace thinks about it, and conquers North Korea, this is a godsend, if we go to Liaodong......"
Fang Jifan chuckled in his heart, His Royal Highness the Prince, this is going to die again?
Fang Jifan shook his head and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, actually...... The state of Korea does not need to be conquered. β
"What?" Zhu Houzhao never imagined that Fang Jifan was actually a peace-loving person, as if he knew Fang Jifan on the first day: "What do you mean?" β
Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Li Long seems to be covering the sky in the Korean country, but in fact, some people in his country have long been dissatisfied with him, and he is like a giant with feet of clay, who only needs a slight push and falls. So...... It's too easy to eradicate Li Long, in fact...... As long as Liu Jie is asked to take hundreds of Liaodong military horses in the name of crusading against the Korean State, escorting the clans and nobles who fled from the Korean State into the DPRK, those Korean military attaches who are secretly dissatisfied with Li Long will inevitably take the opportunity to do it, and at that time, he will die without my Daming doing it. β
Fang Jifan's plan is well-founded.
Now the Manchu monarchs and ministers all think that Li Long dares to kill on a large scale, and he must have completely mastered the Korean state, but they overestimate Li Long's IQ, this guy is not only a madman, but also a completely reckless fool.
In history, after the Jiazi Rebellion, it didn't take long for Li Long to be led by the army led by Liu Shunting, the governor of the central government, Park Yuanzong, and the deputy secretary Yongcheng Xiyan, who first killed Li Long's henchmen, and then entered Gyeongbokgung Palace, deposed Li Long, and exiled Li Long to an isolated island.
Now these people who are about to make a move do not dare to do it, not because they have no strength, but because they do not dare to take risks easily.
Even, there are doubts about Daming's attitude.
Once the attitude of the Ming Dynasty is clear and the public crusade is open, the officials Cao Judge Liu Shunting, the governor of the central government Pu Yuanzong, and the deputy secretary Yongcheng Xiyan will definitely take action.
So...... Fang Jifan guessed that what North Korea lacks now is just this kick in the door.
As long as you kick it over, the big thing can be decided.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be stunned, and said in disbelief: "Are you sure?" Since Li Long dared to be so domineering, he thought he had something to rely on, at least the forbidden army must be in his hands. β
Fang Jifan said confidently: "Your Highness, can't you trust the ministers? β
Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt bored, if this Li Long was really so useless, it seemed that it was pointless to crusade against him by himself!
Zhu Houzhao said suspiciously: "That is the case, but why don't you play in the palace?" β
"This matter is going to be fast, it's too late, I'm afraid there will be changes, so we must be able to catch up with the lightning and take advantage of the current Li Long's big disappointment! Therefore, the only candidate was Liu Jie, who was on the border of eastern Liaodong, to personally bring people into the court in the name of the envoy. β
ββ¦β¦β
Speaking of this, Fang Jifan looked a little embarrassed: "If the minister mentions it in front of His Majesty, I am afraid that Liu Gong will have the idea of letting the minister bleed in the palace on the spot...... Minister...... In fact, he had already secretly given Liu Jie a private letter and asked him to act immediately......"
Zhu Houzhao: "......"
Seem...... Makes sense.
Liu Qing's family finally learned that his son was still alive, and he hadn't been happy for two hours, if Fang Jifan proposed at this time, he wanted Liu Jie to escort the Korean nobles into the court with only hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and face the hundreds of thousands of Korean troops in the Korean country, I was afraid that Liu Qing's family would vomit blood and die on the spot.
Reason...... Of course, this is the reason, as long as Fang Jifan analyzes it well, Zhu Houzhao believes that there will be people who agree with Fang Jifan.
But a son is a son, Zhu Houzhao thought, if he had a son with such a tossing method, I was afraid that he would have to vomit three liters of blood.
Zhu Houzhao grinned: "Interesting...... Lao Fang, or you are clever, this matter, cover it first, what this palace likes to do the most is also raw rice cooked rice, haha, how sure are you? β
"At least seventy or eighty percent." Fang Jifan thought for a while.
Zhu Houzhao bowed his head: "In this way, the palace will rest assured, after all, the son of Liu Qing's family still has a seventy or eighty percent chance of survival, at least, he will not have a disturbed conscience." β
Fang Jifan explained: "Liu Jie is the grandson of the minister's apprentice, what kind of affection is this, how could the minister push his apprentice grandson into the fire pit." Even if it fails, the minister's apprentice will always have a chance to escape back, and he will not die, unless his luck is too bad, then there is really no way, after all, if people are unlucky, drinking cold water may also choke to death. β
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "It makes sense, it's okay, anyway, you have a lot of disciples, don't think about it." β
The two of you say a word, I say a word, and they are already out of the palace.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and looked up at the sky: "Old Fang, it's the New Year again, this palace is a year older, this palace is thinking in my heart, and I always want to make contributions, but ...... still achieved nothing, this cheap is all taken by Liu Jie, it is really jealous. β
Fang Jifan said suddenly: "Your Highness, do you want to eat pork?" β
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help glaring at Fang Jifan, bared his teeth and said, "Don't mention pigs." β
"What the minister means is that it's going to be the New Year, and he should always invite a treat, call the big guys together, and have a good meal, this is the minister's intention, His Royal Highness really doesn't want to eat? It's delicious. β
Zhu Houzhao sneered.
Fang Jifan thought that it was going to be the New Year, but this New Year, but he didn't know if Her Royal Highness the princess would be depressed if she didn't see her?
Fang Jifan said: "In fact, the most important thing is that if people with brain disease eat more pork, especially the pigs raised by the ministers themselves, there is more hope for a cure for this disease." If Your Highness is not interested, I don't know if Her Royal Highness the Princess ......"
Zhu Houzhao was suddenly furious, grabbed Fang Jifan, and said in an unkind tone: "What do you mean, what do you mean, why does this palace think you have bad intentions?" You don't want to fool Hongu! Search for "CM" or enter the URL:.
