Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember it in a second, never lose it!

It is really fragrant.

Emperor Hongzhi didn't deliberately exaggerate, it's really... rarely in this life can he enjoy such a comfortable feeling.

The mashed potatoes were actually better than the meals he usually ate.

So, he ate heartily. After working just now, his stomach was already empty, and he ate the yellow rice porridge. Now, he really felt that the mashed potatoes were as delicious as mountains and seas.

Liu Jian and the others were also hungry. After eating the yellow rice porridge and mashed potatoes, they all felt like His Majesty.

Everyone ate with great joy. A plate of mashed potatoes was eaten clean.

Touch my belly, I'm full.

This feeling of being full...is so good.

Why didn't I have such an appetite before?

Liu Jian has already shown a smile. He already has a better impression of this potato. Fang Jifan and others did not brag, this... should be the staple food.

Seeing Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian and others laughing happily, Fang Jifan's face was sullen, and he didn't feel relaxed at all.

Especially when he saw Zhu Houzhao's smirk, Fang Jifan felt that his back was getting cold, His Royal Highness, this tightrope walk...

Emperor Hongzhi finished eating, wiped his mouth, and sighed: "With this food, I can rest easy."

Liu Jianwei stood up tremblingly, and bowed to Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty's holiness and virtue, and the garrison of thousands of households are also indispensable..."

This is to ask for credit.

For Liu Jian, no amount of rewards can be overstated for the merits of Fang Jifan and others.

It is food, how many people can it feed and how many problems can it solve?

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, thoughtfully, and looked at Zhu Houzhao: "You are the prince, if you are me, what will happen?"

Zhu Houzhao was speechless: "I dare not say it."

At this time, he knew 'humility'.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "From now on, the thousands of households in the field will be allowed to go out of the customs, try to grow potatoes, and be allowed to recruit refugees. They will choose a site outside the customs to recruit refugees. The officials and troops at various passes should cooperate."

The most important thing right now is to grow potatoes outside the pass. If such a high-yield staple food can bear fruit outside the pass, then this will be a fatal blow to the Tatars. "

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Fang Jifan, I want to ask you a question."

Fang Jifan looked surprised.

He originally thought that it was time to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards, but who would have expected that at this time, he would actually ask a question.

What's the problem? Besides calculus, Fang Jifan is not bragging...

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep look at Fang Jifan: "I ask you, do the Three Emperors and Five Emperors exist?"

"..."

No one expected that His Majesty actually asked this question.

That Shen Wen was touching his belly and felt a little more comfortable, but now, he was a little confused.

Because of this question, His Majesty once asked himself.

But now, His Majesty asked Fang Jifan again, and the answer was obvious, His Majesty was very dissatisfied with his answer. Otherwise, how could he ask Fang Jifan.

Emperor Hongzhi said slowly: "I have been thinking about one thing. I asked many people, but I never got a satisfactory answer. You are in Xishan, tinkering with your new learning."

Learning cannot be described as tinkering.

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, this is the knowledge of Wang Shouren, my disciple."

"You push this away completely. No one in the world knows that Wang Shouren learned it from you. Don't come around with me. I heard that you and Wang Xiuxiu are advocating new learning here. Therefore, I I want to ask, you new students, what do you think of these Three Sovereigns and Five Sovereigns?"

Fang Jifan was silent.

burst into tears.

It's obviously not my knowledge.

The justice in my heart does not allow myself to impersonate other people's knowledge, this...is too shameful.

At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Fang Jifan.

Especially Shen Wen, he despises new learning in his heart. This kind of confidence comes from his years of experience. There are so many new learnings in the world, but who can replace Neo Confucianism?

What's more, I am a dignified academician, and my answer still can't satisfy His Majesty. You Fang Jifan, who is still a baby, followed a group of scholars here to deviate from the orthodoxy.

He strokes his beard and smiles.

"Is it important?" Fang Jifan said suddenly.

One word is amazing!

How can it be said that the Three Emperors and Five Emperors are not important.

This is a sage!

Emperor Hongzhi remained silent, still staring at Fang Jifan.

Many people looked at this guy who had always made strange comments in Beijing, and at the same time, always done outrageous things.

Fang Jifan sighed: "Actually, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors are not important at all. The sages admire the Duke of Zhou, why don't the scholars in the world implement the Zhou system? The land system of the Zhou people is the well field system. This is the rule in the Zhou rituals. Why... No one implemented it? Even the sage Confucius did not express his approval for the implementation of the well field system?"

"..." Originally, when Shen Wen heard Fang Jifan's first sentence, he wanted to refute it, but the second sentence made him feel like a defeated rooster.

The well field system is the nightmare of all Confucian scholars in today's world.

They read the rites of Zhou, but they dare not restore the

etiquette. why? Because the ritual system of the Zhou Dynasty, to put it bluntly, is a public ownership system.

Come on, big landlords, let's hurt each other, shall we confiscate the land?

Therefore, people have memorized the rituals of Zhou fluently, and listed it as one of the four books. For thousands of years, there was only one person, Fang Xiaoru, who was slaughtered by Emperor Wen after Jing Nan. He once unequivocally supported the restoration of the well field system. However, no one paid him any attention.

Because, the scholars in the world really have a cow, how can they be willing to use it as Wang Tian?

Fang Jifan continued: "Duke Zhou is also a sage, and his book is listed as the Four Books. People say that Duke Zhou formulated the etiquette, so the world is stable, but why is no one willing to follow the example of Duke Zhou to implement the ritual system of the Zhou people? Three emperors and five emperors, the same……"

"The sages listed them as sages and praised their behavior and the etiquette laws they formulated. In fact, it does not mean that the Three Emperors and Five Emperors and the world of great rule are necessarily good. Therefore, whether the Three Emperors and Five Emperors exist is actually not important at all. They exist , who can find out how the Three Sovereigns and Five Sovereigns rule the world?"

"No one can find it. Times have changed. Even if people know how the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors made the world rule, our descendants may not be able to do it according to their prescriptions. Even if we do, we may not be able to rule the world."

"If the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors don't exist at all, so what? If they don't exist, people who read sage books, would they give up the world of great governance? Would they lose their original intentions of regulating the family, governing the country and the world? No, it's true. As advocated by his disciple Wang Shouren, the book of sages and sages is knowledge, and in this knowledge, there is a world of great governance. Scholars have empathy for workers and peasants, and naturally they will try their best to try to realize the way of sages , even if the world of great rule is far away, just like the stars in the sky, but even if they just get closer, one foot, one zhang, those who try to get close to the stars will shine in the annals of history and be respected by others!"

"I never think about the problems of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. I just keep my conscience in my heart. When I have a conscience, I try it. Just like Zhang Xin, who cultivated the fields, or Ouyang Zhi, who guarded the city in Jinzhou, they all Through the conscience in the heart, practice the way of great governance in the world."

"So, what does the Three Emperors and Five Emperors have to do with me? If they are here, I will admire them; if they are not, I will be with my disciples... Of course, the most important thing is my minister, and I will still march towards the unreachable stars, even if Climb to the highest mountain, open your arms, you are still far away from the stars, but as long as you get closer, you will be satisfied in your heart."

"..."

With a conscience...do your best...

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

He murmured, chewing Fang Jifan's words carefully, and tapped the time with his fingers lightly on the table.

Fang Jifan glanced at Emperor Hongzhi cautiously.

This answer...was made up by him. It's forced, it should be like this. When it comes to pretending to be aggressive, this young master is not bragging...

Emperor Hongzhi let out a long breath: "It's very interesting, and I have some thoughts. But... it's still a little bit..."

"..."

Fang Jifan also smiled, he didn't care: "I have little talent and little learning, your Majesty has learned from ancient to modern times, and I can't match it when I flatter my horse."

Emperor Hongzhi then laughed again: "You people who want to chase the stars are really scary. Fang Jifan is one, Ouyang Zhi is one, Wang Shouren, and your other disciples? Yes, there are also Zhang Xin, and I don’t know if these people who work in the Thousand Households in Tuntian count as absenteeism here in Xishan, then, simply, this Wang San should also be counted as one... By the way, there are also these schoolchildren, who are still young , Maybe you don’t know what the stars in the sky are, but sooner or later, I know, they will follow in your footsteps.”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help sighing: "But I'm old and not in good health, so I really envy you, I envy you for your courage, you... let's go and chase, if you stumble, I will support you, if any of you can't run anymore, I will always give you a place to rest..."

Fang Jifan didn't want to chat with Emperor Hongzhi anymore, he just made an analogy for himself, but as a result, Emperor Hongzhi also began to borrow various code words constantly.

Emperor Hongzhi said with a smile: "When you are chasing, take the crown prince with you. The crown prince is still young. Because of his youth, there will still be many places where he can flex his muscles in the future. Tudou... I accept this great gift. I don't care about the promotion. Worry, this is the business of your garrison Qianhu, the only thing I do is to watch you from the sidelines, wanting to see how close you are to the star."

………………………
