The sound of birds on the seashore, the gentle lapping of water under the pier, and the loud sound of the big waves crashing against the rocks under the cliffs in the distance, the rumbling sound is intermittent. Fan Xian stood on the plank, not confused by His Majesty's passionate remarks, and said seriously: "The Venerable of Ten Thousand Times, if you are not in the unforeseen place, the minister will ask Your Majesty to return to Beijing again." ”

"There is a queen mother in Kyoto, Chen Pingping and two scholars, who can move freely!" The emperor looked at the sea, waved his hand impatiently, and said: "If you want to win the world, you must take that chair, and the first thing is to kill me sitting on the chair...... If you can't kill me, let them go, waste rebellion, ten years won't work. ”

Fan Xian was silent, thinking that His Majesty the Emperor was really a freak, and the combination of incomparably strong self-confidence and incomparably strong suspicion created this person's personality to the extreme...... The emperor wants to play to lure the snake out of the hole, maybe he will die of narcissism one day, the problem is that he doesn't want to be a funeral object.

"Anzhi, you must know that it is difficult to see a person's heart clearly. ”

The emperor suddenly sighed, I don't know if he was talking about his son or his sister, but after this rare sigh of emotion, his expression was suddenly covered with a layer of tiredness, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of indescribable tiredness.

This exhaustion was not the exhaustion that he deliberately made on the dragon chair of the court to show his courtiers, but the real exhaustion, a sense of weariness that arose from the depths of his heart.

Fan Xian calmly looked at the emperor Lao Tzu on the side, with a look on his face. I don't know how many thoughts pass through my mind. It was the first time he was on the emperor's face. Seeing such a real and approachable expression.

However, this real emotional outpouring is like a cloud diagonally above the harbor of Shanzhou, which only blooms occasionally. Blocking those dazzling sunlight, it immediately drifted away, and dissolved in the porcelain blue sky. After an instant, there was no trace on the emperor's face.

The rest. It's just sunshine-like confidence and perseverance. Occasionally, the man immediately reverted to the role of a king.

......

......

Look at this scene. Fan Xian couldn't help but feel a little emotional. sighed: "The so-called painting people and tigers are difficult to draw bones. Knowing people and knowing faces but not hearts, it's just gentle and corresponding on weekdays, who knows if one day will hold two straight knives. Kill each other's chests. ”

The emperor obviously didn't care who the object of Fan Xian's emotion was, but he was just surrounded by this emotion, thinking back on the past. He looked at the sea and was slightly stunned. "The world may think that I am a heartless person. Heartless people, but in fact they are all wrong. ”

Fan Xian looked at His Majesty quietly from the side. There was no answer.

The Emperor said slowly, "I have given them too many opportunities. I hope they will come to their senses, and even now, I am still giving them a chance, if it weren't for love, why would I have to run around like this?"

Fan Xian secretly thought, seducing and forcing others to make mistakes. to test the other party's geocentric, and take a closer look at the hardships of the crown prince and the second prince in the past few years. Is the emperor acting like this, is he affectionate or sick?

"Just like your mother......" The Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he felt that the sun floating out of the clouds was too dazzling.

Fan Xian's heart tightened slightly. Listen carefully to every word of His Majesty's words.

The emperor glanced at him, turned his face again, and said lightly: "She has immortal achievements in Qingguo, and Yu I am even more ...... can talk about kindness compared to the sky, but once it changed, she and her Ye family became a thing of the past, and she died tragically...... And I. But it has been hidden and not revealed, although it has been slightly made up for later, but compared to her kindness, I have done very little. ”

Fan Xian understood what he meant, after the death of his mother, the emperor endured it for four years before he wiped out all the princes and nobles involved in this matter in Kyoto, but ...... But he left a few very important characters and did not kill. If this is revenge, this revenge is inevitably too incomplete.

The Emperor said quietly, "I didn't say it, and neither of them asked. But I know that they are all a little unwilling in their hearts, and they all have resentment towards me......" The corners of his lips suddenly rose with a hint of self-deprecation, "But what can I do about this? But if you want to overturn the case for the Ye family, how will the Queen Mother deal with herself? Or is it ...... I have to depose the queen. Killing is really affectionate and righteous?"

What is very amazing is that even when the emperor talks about this section, his words are still so calm, without a trace of excitement, which makes Fan Xian, who is listening, admire. Of course, he knows that the so-called resentful "them" are of course his father Fan Jian and Dean Chen Pingping.

"As an emperor, it is impossible to travel all over the world without stumbling ......" the emperor said calmly, "If I really do that, I am a ruthless person, and what will become of the entire court?" ”

"She wanted a strong and prosperous Qingguo, and I did it. A look of determination appeared on the emperor's face, "Looking around the country, Qingguo is the first powerful country in the world, and the people of Qingguo are happier than any other year in history. ”

Fan Xian was silent, and in the years after his rebirth, he often asked himself what kind of country Qingguo was and what kind of person the emperor was. Although after entering Beijing, I had a deeper understanding of all this, and finally touched the emperor's self-confident, narcissistic, arrogant, and masochistic heart...... However, he had to admit that even if there was a flood the year before last and a snowstorm this year, the efficiency of the Qingguo bureaucracy, the wealth of the people, and the clarity of politics were many times stronger than the history books he had read in his previous life.

In other words, at this time, there is no doubt that the Qing Kingdom is ruling the world, even the prosperous era, and the emperor next to him at this time is undoubtedly the Ming monarch, or even the holy monarch - if the emperor's standard is only to feed the people.

"She said that the court officials need to be supervised, well, when I was still the crown prince. He went to his father and set up a supervisory court. ”

She said that eunuchs were pitiful and hateful. That's why I have been following the rules since the founding of the country. Eunuchs are strictly forbidden

People. ”

Fan Xian nodded again and again. The number of eunuchs in the Qingguo Imperial Palace was much smaller than that of the Northern Qi Dynasty, which was undoubtedly a virtuous policy.

She said that a wise gentleman should be able to listen to advice. Good. I then granted the Imperial Court the power to discuss the land. ”

The more the emperor spoke, the faster he went. More distracted. But Fan Xian couldn't help biting the tender meat in his lip. Remind yourself not to think of the imperial historians in the court being beaten into a pork belly butt with a court staff...... And laugh out.

......

......

"She said she wanted to reform. It is good to cure the evils once and for all. I depend on her, and I change the yuan. Restructuring and implementing the New Deal......"

Fan Xian finally couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The first year of Qingli was changed to the yuan. At that time, the local reform was actually the third New Deal. The military department was changed to the military department. It was changed to the current Privy Council, and the Tongwen Pavilion was separated from Taixue. Later, it was changed to an education center and changed back. Even the six parts of the earth from ancient times to the present day were almost changed by this majesty.

Emperor Qingguo's lifetime achievements are dazzling. However, it is the three new policies before and after. But it was the absurdity that he could not avoid in his life. Until today. The people of Kyoto are still confused when they talk about these yamen. I'm going to go somewhere. Often, several names have to be reported.

Such a chaotic New Deal. If it weren't for the powerful deterrent power of the imperial power. and the strong execution of the officials of Qingguo. Twisted the court back to its original form. All that remains are the discordant names...... I'm afraid that Qingguo will be in chaos for a long time.

The emperor looked at him. He laughed self-deprecatingly: "You don't have to hide it, I know that this is a rare fool in my life...... It's just that your mother is no longer there. I only know a rough idea, and it's inevitable to make some mistakes. ”

Fan Xian's heart moved slightly. secretly thought that after his mother's death, the emperor still acted according to his words, from this heart. It must be said that the emperor is in this matter. It's kind of a sentient person.

"I listened to your mother a lot before she went. But then I couldn't do anything for her......" The emperor closed his eyes and said quietly: "So after she went, I remembered all the things she had mentioned to me back then, and wanted to realize it for her, which can be regarded as ...... Some kind of promise or guilt to her. ”

Fan Xian sighed. said: "If my mother is still alive, she must have an inexplicable affection for Your Majesty. ”

"No, not a favor. The Emperor opened his eyes. said calmly: "It's just affection, as for admiration." That's even more impossible. I just wanted to do something to sacrifice her spirit in the sky. And not extravagant for the rest. ”

The Emperor suddenly laughed and said, "She used to talk about newspapers in a very pitiful tone. Say there is no gossip to see, no lace news to read...... I asked the Inner Court to set up a newspaper. Draw some lace on it, and when I think about it, I'm also messing around. ”

Fan Xian was dumbfounded, the inner court newspaper was known as the most useless thing in Qingguo, and it was inscribed by Mr. Pan Ling, a scholar and calligrapher. It was sent to all the states and counties, and was kept only by the officials and the magnates, and if it was in the market, it was often sold for a lot of silver for a single court newspaper.

When he was in Lanzhou. He once stole the newspaper in the old house to exchange for silver flowers, and was naturally very familiar with this newspaper, and then he was very disdainful of the gossip content of the so-called "newspaper", and was very puzzled by the lace painted on the side of the newspaper, and the answer to all this turned out to be ......

Mom wanted to read gossip newspapers and listen to lace news!

Fan Xiandi looked at the emperor with a strange face, and forcibly suppressed the words that were about to blurt out, he wanted to remind His Majesty. The so-called lace news does not refer to the fact that a few lace lines are drawn on the edge of the newspaper floor.

The emperor didn't notice his expression, and said more and more happily: "Your mother is most curious about Pingping's story back then, so in the fourth year of Qingli, I took advantage of the old dog's return to my hometown and asked the inner court newspaper to write it lively, if your mother can see it, she must be happy." ”

Fan Xian laughed, he also remembered this story, the fourth spring of Qingli. He went to Kyoto from Shanzhou, and the two biggest things in Kyoto at that time were the exposure of the illegitimate daughter of Prime Minister Lin Ruofu, and at the same time the marriage with the Fan family, and the second was that the editor of the inner court was not afraid of the authority of the Supervision Yuan, and exposed the youth story of Chen Pingping, the president of the Supervision Yuan.

The sun on the seaside gradually rose, moving from the front to the back, hitting the shadows of the emperor and Fan Xiandi above the undulating sea surface from time to time, and the partial sea water also came to make fun, so that the waves cleared a little, and gradually contrasted like calm, and the blurred shadows of the two people became clearer and clearer.

Fan Xian smiled and lowered his head, thinking that His Majesty is also a mortal after all, just as he never forgets Qingmiao, he also never forgets Shanzhou, probably in this life, only on the dock of Shanzhou, His Majesty will say so many words.

And it was this dialogue between non-monarchs and ministers that made Fan Xian have a little more affection for this emperor, a deeper understanding, and more troubles.

He sighed and set his gaze on the sea, the troubles in Dao's heart were in the future after all, and the troubles in front of him were terrible enough.

"What are you worried about. The emperor was in a more relaxed mood and asked casually.

Fan Xian pondered for a long time and then said, "Admiral Jiaozhou Naval Division...... He is a child of the Qin family. ”

The emperor officially went on patrol, and he didn't know how much honor guard was needed, even though Emperor Qingguo had always been known for his simplicity, but in terms of defense force, the imperial court also put a lot of effort into it. The state army on the land route is outside, the forbidden army is included, plus a master and the old monster of Gonggong Hong, which can be called a steel fortress.

On the waterway, several warships from the Jiaozhou Navy Division also came to guard against dangers from the sea. When Fan Xian said this, his eyes were slightly squinting at the sea, staring at the ships sent by the Jiaozhou sailors to escort the ground.

The emperor's face was calm, and he didn't seem to take Fan Xian's reminder to heart, and said: "I will one day seek justice for you for the affairs of the valley, but the old general Qin is the stone of the country, don't doubt it." Now that you have transferred the black horse over, you don't need to worry about the assault within a hundred miles, so why bother to be restless and bereavement dogs all day long. ”

Fan Xian then thought of His Majesty's other identity that had not been used for a long time was a famous general who led the army, and he smiled and took the order, and said no more.
