Zhu Houzhao's frowning look was completely captured by Emperor Hongzhi's eyes. He gave Zhu Houzhao a meaningful look and said, "You have come here, but you are in a hurry to leave? You...you don't know how to mess around?"

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan said almost in unison: "Father (Your Majesty), is this kind of person?"

Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly, waved his hands and said, "Go."

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan hurried out of the warm pavilion as if they had been pardoned.

As soon as the front foot went out, Zhu Houzhao tugged on Fang Jifan's sleeve and said, "Let's go to the East Palace."

"What?" Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao with clear eyes, but looked at Zhu Houzhao with a silly and innocent expression.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Imperial decree, the imperial decree is going slowly, but since the emperor has promulgated the imperial decree, the so-called gentleman can't be followed by a horse. When the envoy arrives in Liaodong with the canonized imperial decree, and then enters the Korean country, it will be a month later. If we have an imperial decree, we can deliver it in half a month, wouldn't it be good?"

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao in shock, His Royal Highness...

"Please speak……"

Fang Jifan kept his mouth shut: "I don't want to talk, I don't know anything."

Zhu Houzhao grabbed Fang Jifan's lapel and said, "You pretended to me again, huh, every time you want to sneak away! What did you say when you came here? You said the consequences would be very serious. What are we afraid of for the court and the society of Ming Dynasty? "

Fang Jifan was very helpless, in fact, he really wanted to try himself fainted on the ground, and then pretended to be dead.

I want to fall to the ground, but it's hard to make up my mind.

At this time, he had no choice but to say: "What about the imperial edict, we don't have an imperial edict."

"Who said no!" Zhu Houzhao blinked at Fang Jifan proudly, and said with light in his eyes, "Come with me."

On the way out of the palace, Zhu Houzhao said: "Father will definitely not be able to escape this beating, but don't worry, I won't confess you... Isn't there Liu Jin?"

Hearing Liu Jin, Fang Jifan finally had some comfort and confidence in his heart, but thinking about it, His Majesty is not a fool, he must know that he has a share, and it is the biggest one!

Feeling in my heart, I still can't help but feel uneasy, a person like the prince is really the scum of the world!

At this time, he said: "We have to keep all the officials silent, otherwise if the matter is leaked, thousands of impeachment memorials will be sent to impeach His Highness, and I am very worried about His Highness and Eunuch Liu."

Zhu Houzhao glared at him and said, "You are worrying about yourself."

Fang Jifan felt that his personality had been hit, and then he raised his chin slightly, and said solemnly: "I am loyal and worried about the country, why are you afraid of dying? What happened, please come here. Of course, we cannot make fearless sacrifices." If you want to suppress all the officials, you have to convince Liu Gong first, Liu Gong is the chief minister of the cabinet, if he doesn't care about this, this matter will be easy?"

"Can you convince him?" Zhu Houzhao actually felt a headache.

Fang Jifan said indifferently: "There is no way, Mr. Liu is a person who understands righteousness after all."

As the two talked, they had arrived at the entrance of the Meridian Gate. At the entrance, Liu Jin was smiling and waiting for His Highness the Crown Prince. He hiccupped and smiled obsequiously at the Crown Prince.

Fang Jifan said: "Eunuch Liu..."

Liu Jin shivered violently, suddenly felt the wind blowing, and his hairs stood on end. Fang Jifan usually called him Liu Jin, but suddenly he called him father-in-law, it was scary.

Fang Jifan smiled and said: "Please trouble Eunuch Liu to go to the academy to invite Liu Juren, that Liu Jie, to the East Palace to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao glared at him, and said impatiently, "Go."

Immediately, the two came to the East Palace together.

Zhu Houzhao's collection in the East Palace is very large, dazzling, with dozens of large seals, including gold, silver, and copper. Fang Jifan was terrified when he saw that there was a general's name on it, and there was another one, which was actually the Duke of Zhen. Naturally, there must be a so-called academy dean.

It turns out...Zhu Houzhao, the Duke of Zhen, had already prepared for himself.

But what scared Fang Jifan even more was the emperor's seal and the small seal dedicated to Emperor Hongzhi.

Fang Jifan couldn't help but said: "Your Highness didn't mean to use carrots..."

Zhu Houzhao said convincingly: "Do you think I am stupid? If I admit that it is not a radish, but made of gold and silver, my father will copy my place tomorrow, and I will take everything away. Talking about radishes is a deception. Father The emperor knows nothing about the printing technique, so he will believe it."

As he said that, he looked at Fang Jifan with disdain in his eyes: "Old Fang, I see that you are usually very smart, so there are times when you are stupid."

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao resentfully: "Your Highness, I suddenly feel that my life is no longer my own."

"Don't be afraid." Zhu Houzhao curled his lips and said, "What are you afraid of? Guess who carved these seals?"

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao hesitantly.

Zhu Houzhao said lightly: "It was granted by the Empress Dowager, my great-grandmother in private. One day, if my father really wants to trouble me and kill me, Renshou Palace will come in a short while. People, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, you won’t lose your head.”

"..." Is there such an operation? Fang Jifan doesn't know what to do anymore!

At this time, Zhu Houzhao found a seal in the Bogu rack, and said: "This is the one. This seal is the emperor's seal specially used for canonizing imperial edicts. Come on."

Come on, write an imperial edict first, is it to reprimand that Li Long? How can I scold him? Call him the scum of the world? "

………………

An hour later, Liu Jie followed Liu Jin to the East Palace in a hurry from Xishan College, out of breath.

Entering the main hall, I saw His Highness the Crown Prince wearing a python robe, and Fang Jifan standing beside Zhu Houzhao.

Liu Jie hurriedly bowed down and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness, and I have seen Master."

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan also glanced at Zhu Houzhao. The two looked at each other, and Zhu Houzhao continued to purse his lips without saying a word.

Fang Jifan smiled and said: "Liu Jie, it's good that you came. Do you know that among all the disciples and grandchildren, the master values ​​you the most."

Liu Jie was full of doubts at first, but now he was moved instantly after hearing Fang Jifan's words.

Without a master, how can you have your own mentor? Now that I have become a juren, I can exhale and raise my eyebrows, my life has changed since then, and I no longer have to be ashamed to meet people as before!

Beizhili's Xieyuan can also be obtained. Even if he fails to be a Jinshi in the future, he will not lose his father's face.

Furthermore, studying in the academy these days has benefited a lot, and Liu Jie couldn't help crying when he thought that his teacher valued him so much.

Fang Jifan looked at him with a smile, and had to say, in fact...most of the ancients were very simple.

Liu Jie choked with sobs and said, "Master's kindness to students is as great as a mountain, and it's hard for students to repay the debt just in case."

"Cough cough..." Zhu Houzhao coughed, went straight to the topic and said, "Just in time, I have an errand for you. Here is a decree, which is the secret decree of my father and emperor. It is of great importance. It must not be entrusted to honest and capable people. The Qing family recommended you, saying that you are honest and capable, and you will go to North Korea with the imperial decree."

"North...North Korea..." Liu Jie couldn't help being surprised, it was thousands of miles away.

Zhu Houzhao said solemnly: "The matter is urgent, there is no need to delay, you need to go immediately, in addition, when you pass through Liaodong, you need to send another secret decree to the governor of Liaodong."

Liu Jie thought for a while, and gritted his teeth. Since it was entrusted by his master and also ordered by the emperor, he didn't ask any more questions, but said: "Then I will go back and clean up today, and leave tomorrow."

Zhu Houzhao immediately said: "No, this matter is of great importance, and we must not delay for a moment. We are about to set off now, and we have to ride a fast horse into the court at starry night. I value you."

Liu Jie was stunned: "Let's set off now..." He hesitated for a moment: "I'm going to... trek across the mountains and rivers, can I go and meet my father immediately..."

How could Zhu Houzhao agree, and said without a doubt: "No, it must be done as soon as possible. There is so much trouble. What you are burdened with now is a big responsibility. Okay, stop talking, Liu Jin, send Liu Jieyuan away immediately. Be sure to send him out of the city gate and prepare a fast horse for him."

Liu Jie was confused, but when he glanced at the prince with a serious expression, and then at the master with his lips pursed, his heart trembled, could it be... something serious happened?

Thinking of this, his blood suddenly surged up. This is a test from His Royal Highness and Master, but...Father's place probably worries him.

I sighed in my heart, but there was no more hesitation.

Fang Jifan looked at Liu Jie's back with a smile on his face.

Then Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "This Liu Jie is really honest, Lao Fang, the disciples and grandchildren you have taught are all good, and I appreciate it very much."

Fang Jifan grabbed Zhu Houzhao's skirt and yelled at him: "Be serious, we are doing big things, don't act like we are pushing people into a fire pit, isn't Your Highness afraid that you won't be able to sleep at night? Don't you feel ashamed? "

"No... I don't know..." Zhu Houzhao said honestly, "I think...it's very interesting..."

After thinking about it, Fang Jifan let go of him, is it interesting?

Hey, I'm a nice guy, not boring at all.

………………

As usual, Liu Jian entered the palace on duty at dawn the next day.

My son has not been home for many days since he went to the academy to study.

However, Liu Jian's heart is extremely at ease.

Studying in the academy and getting to know more friends makes you look like a scholar. I don't know how many times better than being locked up in the study.

Fang Jifan... what a good man.

No matter how you say it, although this guy has a weird temperament and has a brain disorder, he has helped the old man a lot.

His son regained his strength and gained fame again. He is very pleased that the Liu family will have successors in the future!

So although he is busy with official duties and has many worries in the court, Liu Jian still feels at ease in his heart. This is the reason why the so-called family and everything are prosperous.
