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!

Emperor Hongzhi's heart was probably in despair.

He suddenly found that his heart was very contradictory.

If this prodigal bastard is really capable, daring to seal the jade seal privately and prepare a golden knife, although this is a big treason, it also shows that this son wants to be the emperor, at least he still has a little ambition.

This world is yours anyway! Emperor Hongzhi was not a person who was greedy for power and position. To be honest, his life as an emperor was very hard, very hard, so hard, wasn't it just to hand over a peaceful country to his son?

If my son is ambitious, then I can't ask for it, I'd rather enjoy it.

But the problem is that such a radish carves a jade seal, forges an imperial decree, and then goes to seal himself the dean of the academy, and what is the matter of Lao Shizi, the commander-in-chief of Xishan, if you call him rebellious, it is more like a child's play.

Let's not talk about the dean of the academy, is the chief military officer very big?

Very big, mastering the soldiers and horses of a province!

Where is Kexishan? The radius is only tens of miles, can you make some progress?

Emperor Hongzhi really wanted to hang Zhu Houzhao up and beat him up.

I was so angry that I wanted to vomit blood.

But the problem is that the forged imperial decree has been posted out loudly, and now you want to admit that the prince forged the imperial decree?

This is too serious, it is simply a big joke in the world, it is ridiculous! From then on, how will people think of this foolish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

Hold your nose and admit it...

Thinking of this, Emperor Hongzhi wanted to hack this prodigal to death.

Would the dignified Son of Heaven issue such absurd imperial decree? Will the palace toss out the decree of the dean of Xishan Academy, will they come up with a general officer of Xishan Academy?

You Zhu Houzhao are shameless, he is still ashamed.

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyes cautiously, looked at Emperor Hongzhi's face, then quickly lowered his head, and said tremblingly: "Father... I actually wanted to discuss with Father, but I thought that Father would be angry, or Not to report."

"Kneel down well." Emperor Hongzhi let out a breath, his eyes were red: "I want to be quiet."

Zhu Houzhao kneeled straighter as if he had been pardoned.

Uh, kneeling is better than being beaten!

After a while, an eunuch finally came in and said, "Your Majesty, Uncle Xinjian and Wang have arrived."

"Announce them to come in." Emperor Hongzhi looked dull.

Not long after, Fang Jifan and Wang Shouren entered the warm pavilion one after the other. Although they had just entered the warm pavilion, Fang Jifan seemed to be very familiar with the place, so he subconsciously looked towards a corner.

Sure enough, seeing the prince kneeling upright here, Fang Jifan was overjoyed, and winked at Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan's eyes interlaced, and found that Emperor Hongzhi was looking at him, and he hurriedly lowered his head again in fright.

What happened to the prince always gave Fang Jifan a feeling of killing chickens and scaring monkeys.

You see, His Majesty is so cruel to his son, is there any way for the ministers to survive?

Fang Jifan was a little bit amused at first, but now he couldn't, he shuddered when he thought about it, he tried his best to smile and said: "Your Majesty..."

"Xishan Academy is very good." Emperor Hongzhi got to the point directly.

Presumably he was very angry, so naturally he would not have a good face.

Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "This is mainly..."

In the middle of the sentence, Emperor Hongzhi interrupted impatiently: "There is an imperial edict posted in the academy. This...do you know? It is just under the plaque of the Master of All Ages in Minglun Hall."

"I know." Fang Jifan said: "This is a gift from His Majesty. His Highness the Crown Prince is extremely intelligent. His Majesty ordered him to be the dean of the academy and the commander-in-chief of Xishan! Everyone in the academy was rejoicing, and they all said, Your Majesty is wise, The scholars in the academy are regarded as innocent, so the scholars study hard, and today the provincial examination released the rankings, the academy has thirteen scholars, all of whom are high school students, this is not only the merit of His Majesty's patronage, but also the dedication of His Royal Highness to lead the academy, and the contribution is indispensable."

"..."

Can you still say that?

Wang Shouren opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

In fact, Wang Shouren is an upright person. He felt that what his teacher said was wrong and wanted to correct it.

And Fang Jifan looked back as if he had been prepared for a long time, and glared at him.

Only then did Wang Shouren swallow the words obediently.

Emperor Hongzhi was a little dazed.

After all, he still sneered and said: "Where is the credit of this rebellious son, I will not hide it from you, this edict is a forgery."

"..." This time, it was Fang Jifan's turn to be shocked.

No way, I read the edict back then, it doesn't look like a fake, especially the seal, who dares to fake it?

He glanced back at Zhu Houzhao, who lowered his head very aggressively.

Fang Jifan was a little confused, obviously, Emperor Hongzhi wasn't joking with him!

Are you a victim? Do you want to reiterate? That way, it will be easier to draw the line.

He thought in a mess, and felt that the boundaries were drawn too clearly, which seemed a bit lacking in righteousness. After all, Fang Jifan was once a person of little righteousness.

"You don't know about this matter?" Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan, as if he wanted to find out the truth from Fang Jifan's face.

Obviously, Long Yan was furious.

But Fang Jifan felt that he was really better than Dou E

Repay the injustice.

This time, he really didn't know.

But Zhu Houzhao said at this time: "Father, Fang Jifan really doesn't know."

"..."

It was fine if Zhu Houzhao didn't say this, but Fang Jifan felt a little uncomfortable when he heard him say this, and he couldn't help but fight between heaven and man.

Loyalty or one's own life, which is more precious? It seems that the latter is more realistic.

But little Zhu Xiucai is actually quite loyal. This is the truth. He always excuses himself, and he was good to himself in the past.

After thinking about it, Fang Jifan finally made up his mind and said, "Your Majesty, I know."

"What?" Emperor Hongzhi's face became more severe.

Fang Jifan said: "My emperor is so wise that he would never issue such a strange edict, so after seeing the edict, I became suspicious."

Emperor Hongzhi didn't say a word.

In fact, Fang Zhan was quite nervous in his heart, but he still tried his best to calm down and said: "But I still accepted this decree. This is because, if the imperial decree is false, then it is necessary to find out who is so bold as to send out the falsehood." Once the imperial edict is investigated, the consequences will be disastrous."

The tense face just now began to relax a little.

Emperor Hongzhi looked a little more tenderly.

Fang Jifan is still very steady, unexpectedly thought of this level.

"That's why I think that as long as the imperial edict is sent by His Royal Highness, no matter whether it is true or not, then I think it is true. It is an order from the palace. What's more, the prince is the dean of Xishan Academy. This imperial decree is nothing more than an official confirmation. There is nothing wrong with it. Xishan Academy has a prince as the dean, and it is an honor. Now the academy has passed the exam for thirteen members. Your Majesty, this is a great joy. Ah, His Royal Highness the crown prince is full of peaches and plums, isn’t it a gratifying and congratulatory event? Now that the thirteen members meet the crown prince, they all have to address the crown prince as a great master, Your Majesty, what do you think?”

grand master...

There is a difference between a great master and a mentor. A mentor is a tutor, that is, a person who teaches knowledge in person. Just like Wang Shouren called Fang Jifan a mentor, this is a relatively close teacher-student relationship.

The great master originally refers to a person who has achieved extraordinary achievements, is respected by others and can be regarded as a model teacher. After the Ming Dynasty, people generally called the academic officials the master. , the academic officials have the responsibility to teach the county's scholars, so they often call the academic officials the master.

Although this is a relatively broad term, to a certain extent, it can also be said that the scholars in this academy are all disciples of the prince in a broad sense.

"..." Emperor Hongzhi suddenly realized something.

Of course he didn't believe that the prince had any deep intentions in going to forge the imperial decree.

But Fang Jifan reminded...

This Xishan Academy doesn't seem like a no-name academy. A Shuntian Prefecture's provincial examination won thirteen candidates at once, directly dominating the rankings. Such a terrifying strength, and these candidates...

Taking a deep breath, Emperor Hongzhi said, "The Qing family will continue talking."

This time, it started to be called the Qing family.

It's like saying that we have become good friends again.

Fang Jifan continued: "What's more, the reason why His Royal Highness forged the imperial decree was really just because of fun? I don't think so, if His Royal Highness is just playing around, there are too many things to play in this world, but why does the Prince call himself the king?" Where is the dean of the academy? It can be seen that His Royal Highness is eager to be able to truly take charge of his own affairs and share the worries for His Majesty."

"..." Zhu Houzhao's eyes straightened when he heard this, how can he explain it like this? Lao Fang... is considered a talent.

Emperor Hongzhi had already stood up, thoughtful, in the warm pavilion, with his hands behind his back, and started pacing back and forth, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

Fang Jifan said again: "Why are these disciples of my minister able to be appreciated by His Majesty? Let's just say Ouyang Zhi, Ouyang Zhi... If I always treat him as a child and only let him study obediently in my residence, then he will never be a child." They are all just a pedantic scholar who can't grow up. No matter how good the books are, what's the use? There is never a shortage of scholars in the world, but what is lacking is a talent for managing the world. That's why I tried every means to let him go to Liaodong to hone his skills , so that he can stand on his own and understand the difference between reading and doing things."

"This is probably the same way I treat other disciples."

"The same is true for His Highness the Crown Prince. If His Majesty always treats His Highness the Crown Prince as a child, then His Highness the Crown Prince will always be a child. Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has grown up, and he already has his own ideas. This is gratifying. However, instead of encouraging him, His Majesty blamed him, and the minister... thinks this is inappropriate, Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince will sooner or later inherit the throne and take charge of his own affairs, he is no longer a child."

When Fang Jifan said this, Emperor Hongzhi finally stopped. With his hands behind his back, he stared at Fang Jifan for a long time, with a slightly moved expression on his face.
