Fang Jifan never imagined that this emperor of the dynasty, the official of the ministry, usually does not smile, and he is always upright when he meets people, even Liu Jian has to sell him a little face.

Now he is so amiable and so intimate with himself.

Sure enough, the gossip outside is not enough to believe.

Others say that our successor is not a thing, but who can know that our successor is the country and the people, and has the arrogance and integrity of plum blossoms.

Outsiders say that the prince is difficult to get close to, but where did he think that the prince is so easy to get along with, and with him, Fang Jifan found the feeling of home, and he couldn't help humming in his heart: "Go home often, go home and see, even if you help your mother brush chopsticks and wash the dishes, the old man doesn't want his children to contribute much to the family, and it is not easy to have a reunion in his life." ’

Fang Jifan said modestly: "The prince cares for him like this, he is really ashamed to follow the domain, and he is really ashamed." ”

Wang Ao smiled, still amiable, can he not be happy? Now everyone outside is talking about what they are, saying that they are virtuous, virtuous, and scheming, comparable to Guan Zhong.

What an evaluation is this, I am old, what I want, isn't it this reputation of integrity, with this good story, even if I die tomorrow, if this court does not posthumously call me 'Wenzheng Gong', I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public.

'Wenzheng', when he thought of the word Wenzheng, Wang Ao's eyes lit up, this is the highest evaluation of Wenchen, which is more advanced than the military attache being posthumously awarded the title of 'King of Hejian' and 'King of Qianning'. If you are not a double of virtue and art, ah no, you have both ability and political integrity, and you have made great contributions to the country and the people, there is absolutely no possibility of getting it.

These days, he is in a particularly good mood, he looks at everyone who is pleasing to the eye, and he wants to kiss everyone when he sees him, even if it is as strange as Xiao Jing, he feels that it has a different flavor.

He enthusiastically succeeded the hand of the feudal party: "Eh, don't always call it a prince, a prince, it's too raw, I am your father, and I can be regarded as some friendship, just call Shibo." ”

Fang Jifan was thinking about it, and called Shibo because he took advantage of this emperor's teacher. Or did he take advantage of himself, Master Liu Jie, thought about it, and said very simply: "Shibo is good." ”

Wang Ao was happy: "Tomorrow, the old man is on duty, you come to the old man's house, you and I cook wine and talk happily, you must come, if you don't come, the old man will be unhappy." ”

Fang Jifan had no choice but to respond.

This king stroked his beard and laughed.

Liu Jian and the others saw it in their eyes, and said in their hearts, this Fang Jifan usually does things in a daze, where did he think that this time he helped Wang Ao a lot, no wonder Wang Ao was so happy, so he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, why didn't he play it himself.

Envy, jealousy, hatred, and hatred.

Everyone went to the warm pavilion, that Xu Jing and others had not yet arrived, Emperor Hongzhi was in high spirits, looking at these consolidated ministers, he couldn't help but sigh, I have these people, and like Xu Jing and others, they endure the hardships that ordinary people can't bear, and the soldiers who are loyal to me, why worry that the Ming Dynasty can't enter the prosperous world.

Especially when he looked at Zhu Houzhao and smiled at Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao said obediently: "Father is good." ”

"Good, good." Emperor Hongzhi was happy, and the prince's performance in Nanchang Mansion also made him very pleased.

Seeing that Xu Jing and the others did not come, Zhu Houzhao couldn't stay idle, and seeing that his father was particularly enthusiastic about him today, he also became happy: "I heard that my father was going to allocate money and grain from the treasury to go to the West, and my son heard it, and was overjoyed, and my father finally got his senses......"

The smile on Emperor Hongji's face gradually disappeared.

The face pulled down.

Originally, the matter of silver was very evasive, especially when this box of silver was moved out of the inner treasury, and Emperor Hongzhi's heart was like a knife. 、

Emperor Hongzhi was expressionless, and he wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it back.

As soon as Xiao Jing saw it, he knew His Majesty's thoughts, so he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, that Xu Jing, I think it's coming soon." ”

"Hmm." Finally, I don't have to deal with the prince, so as not to be angry, Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Xiao Jing meaningfully.

Zhu Houzhao is still stupid, the old party said, the silver in the inner money, this is a good thing, lest the court for the sake of shipbuilding and the West, the silver is paid by the treasury, those who give things to the middle and the imperial history are like vultures, all staring at the things of the West, scolding this today, scolding that tomorrow, this West, what to do?

Therefore, the father is still very holy sometimes, and he is not completely incompetent.

But at this time, a eunuch came outside: "Your Majesty, the sea patrol ambassador Xu Jingren is waiting." ”

"Please come in." Emperor Hongzhi deliberately shouted a word of invitation.

After a short time, Xu Jing, Zhang Heling, and Zhou La came in and bowed down: "Wait for the minister...... I have seen Your Majesty, long live my emperor. ”

As soon as these three people came, they suddenly suffocated in the warm pavilion.

Looking at these three long-term hardships, one by one, the skin turned up, even if they wore new court clothes, looking at their exposed skin, they were shocking, compared with this new cluster of court clothes, they felt very disobedient, and the hardships in this sea were just a glance.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed with emotion: "Eh, it's really not easy, it's not easy, come, get up, give a seat." ”

The eunuch hurriedly moved the brocade pier.

Liu Jian and others were also moved, sighed in their hearts, and admired this Xu Jing.

Even Zhang Heling, who used to be like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouted and beat him, at this time, he was in awe.

Shou Ninghou and the young son of the Zhang family have grown up and can do anything.

Xu Jing sat down, and his eyes immediately wandered anxiously in this warm pavilion, and finally, his gaze fell on Fang Jifan's body.

In an instant, Xu Jing suddenly inhaled, it's okay not to suck, looking at the tall and taller, more handsome teacher, thousands of emotions and thoughts came to his heart, although Xu Jing desperately wanted to hold back this flood of emotions in front of the emperor, but this emotion was still like a flooding river that broke the embankment, rushing out.

His eyes were suddenly red, his eyes were filled with tears, and in the blink of an eye, tears slipped down from the corners of his eyes, he hurriedly lowered his head, wiped his tears with his long sleeves, got up, whimpered, and bowed down: "The student is back, teacher...... Are you okay? ”

His voice trembled, and his emotions were uncontrollable.

Then the tears fell on the cold masonry like a curtain of rain, and the hot tears seemed to melt the coldness.

The kings and ministers were silent.

Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher.

This is the norm.

This Xu Jing has been at sea for nearly three years, suffered countless hardships, and is almost not human, and now he sees his mentor at first glance, and it is natural for him to act like this.

The crowd was just emotional and silent.

Fang Jifan was moved, Xu Jing, this time, come back, the teacher almost didn't know you, so he hurriedly stepped forward: "Hurry up, you can come back, the teacher is very happy, the teacher still dreamed of you last night." ”

After hearing this, Xu Jing couldn't cry even more, hugged Fang Jifan, and hot tears fell on Fang Jifan's shoulders: "Let the teacher worry, the student is really dead." Many times, students think that they will never see their teachers again......"

"Don't cry, don't cry." Fang Jifan patted him on the shoulder.

I sighed in my heart.

Xu Jing is still very conscientious.

This is much better than Wang Shouren's bastard, after repairing the book, the words are cold, the first sentence is whether the teacher eats or not, it is probably just, Master, have you eaten? Have you eaten? Have you eaten? Eat your uncle, is my Jifan the kind of person who doesn't eat?

It was not easy for Xu Jing to restrain his emotions, and a eunuch helped him sit down again.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but burst into tears, it was really a touching scene. He couldn't help but look at Zhang Heling. This brother-in-law...... I have also lost a lot of weight, and I used to be skinny and bone, but now I am bony foreskin.

Zhang Heling was embarrassed for a long time before he stood up obediently: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty of ten thousand deaths." ”

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "You also know that you have the crime of ten thousand deaths, do you know, how sad Empress Zhang is to learn that you have disappeared with your brother." ”

When Zhang Heling heard this, he was stunned, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and was happy: "Oh." scared the minister to death, and the minister thought that His Majesty would pursue the minister's ......"

He suddenly realized that he couldn't say anything about the edict, so he shut up.

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to notice something, and said sternly: "Why? You say, now that you confess, you can still be blamed for the past. ”

"Your Majesty......" Zhang Heling had no choice but to say obediently: "It's the minister's death, the minister and His Royal Highness the Prince, forged His Majesty's will, and went to sea with the ship......"

Zhu Houzhao's face was sallow.

He had long thought that this damn uncle was not a good thing, but ...... I didn't expect this guy to be so unrighteous that he turned his head and sold himself.

"The minister also made his own decision, forged the holy order, and rewarded the wealth of the ship to the soldiers who accompanied the army, and all the countless gold and silver were scattered gold, so that the court could get it, but thirty percent, the minister...... It's really ten thousand deaths, ten thousand deaths, the ministers are high and bright, and the sleeves are clean, but I regret that I shouldn't be, I was instigated by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the ministers can't stand Your Majesty, I can't stop it......" Then, he began to howl.

“……”

Emperor Hongzhi looked sideways and looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao was busy hanging his head, and he didn't dare to come out.

Emperor Hongzhi saw that Zhang Heling was about to die of grief, and said in his heart, it's been three years, so what's the matter, what else can I say, you, it's enough to worry me, and you have scattered all your wealth and rewarded the soldiers, this ...... What's not to do?

Emperor Hongzhi said: "A little gold and silver, if it can make the three armies excited, this is also a matter of course, the soldiers work hard, reward loyalty, why not, don't cry, get up and speak." ”

Zhang Heling shuddered, raised his head very carefully, and glanced at Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, if the minister is honest enough to explain something, you ...... Don't cut off your minister's head. ”

Emperor Hongzhi was kind and pleasant: "But it doesn't hurt to say it, don't worry, I won't want your head." ”

Seeing Zhang Heling's pity, everyone said: "Shou Ninghou is meritorious, don't be afraid." ”

"yes." Wang Ao was also in a very good mood, although he looked down on Zhang Heling very much in the past, he couldn't help but say at this time: "Shouning Hou doesn't have to worry, you are all the heroes of our Ming Dynasty." ”

Zhang Heling stammered: "The gold and silver, as well as spices, and other jewelry, are converted into silver...... Folded silver ...... Nearly fifteen million! ”
