Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1065 Great Merit

  Fang Jifan came out of Fengtian Hall inexplicably, and he still doesn't understand what His Majesty's sentence "Oh Li" means.

  Emperor's mind is unpredictable.

  Obviously in normal times, they are easy to get along with.

  Fang Jifan couldn't help sighing.

  When he walked out of Fengtian Hall, Tang Yin followed him step by step.

  Liu Jian and others also filed out of the palace.

   After meeting each other, Fang Jifan saluted Liu Jian with a smile: "I have met Mr. Liu."

  Liu Jian smiled: "Fang Duwei doesn't need to be polite. Fang Duwei has worked hard and made great achievements. This time, he needs to fight against the Japanese invasion. One year is a bit tight, but with Fang Duwei's ability, it is not a big deal."

   Regarding this point, Liu Jian is quite confident.

  Fang Jifan said with a sad face: "Mr. Liu is too famous, but... a year is a bit long, maybe... within a month, it can be resolved."

  Liu Jian: "..."

   Forget it... Liu Jian doesn't want to talk to Fang Jifan.

  What this guy does is metaphysics.

  Fang Jifan has already taken Tang Yin away.

   Tang Yin was thoughtful on the road, and when he followed Fang Jifan back to Zhenguo Mansion, Fang Fang couldn't help but said: "Just now, my teacher said it for a month."

  Fang Jifan stared at Tang Yin with a smile: "Do you think it's feasible?"

  Tang Yin shook his head: "The students thought... this..."

  Fang Jifan pulled his face down: "It's a good thing that the teacher is in front of His Majesty, and he pleaded for you. I hope His Majesty can reward you heavily. Who knows that you are so worthless. You are so disappointing to me."

   Is it pleading for the students?

   Tang Yin felt a little shaken in his heart.

   But soon, he dismissed this idea. What his teacher thought was unfathomable, how could he use common sense to guess it?

  He couldn't help saying: "The student wants to ask the teacher for advice."

  Fang Jifan shouted: "Tutu."

  Tang Yin didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly took out the map of Japan from the bookshelf.

  Fang Jifan shook his head: "It's not the Japanese country, it's the map of the world."

  Tang Yin turned around to take it again, and spread it out.

  Fang Jifan's eyes fell on the map: "Do you still remember what Xu Jing said when he returned to the voyage last time?"

"this…"

   "Idiot." Fang Jifan said with a hatred of iron and steel: "He said that the two Marquis Shouning, with a fleet, will bypass the Golden Continent and arrive here..."

  Fang Jifan pointed to San Francisco.

   Tang Yin watched carefully, meticulously.

Fang Jifan said again: "But it's too far to go around. The two brothers of the Zhang family are people who forget about righteousness when they see small gains. They are full of gold and silver. , Well, you don’t want to learn anything. What did you say just now as a teacher? Oh, the Zhang brothers will definitely discover something in the west bank, and they will definitely be interested in the new sea route, because no matter what they discover in the west bank, If you want to return, you will bypass the Golden Continent, cross the ocean, then reach the Tianzhu Sea, and finally reach the Western Ocean... This journey is too far away. You forgot, the fleet has a map of the world left by the old **** Sanbao ?”

  Tang Yin nodded hurriedly: "Yes. Sanbao **** is an old man, really amazing."

Fang Jifan nodded and smiled: "Yes, Sanbao **** made seven voyages to the West and made great contributions. Even when he was dying, he still thought about the great cause of our Ming Dynasty going abroad. As a teacher, in this life, apart from admiring the current emperor, the emperor's martial arts and martial arts are really amazing. The rest of the people who still admire him is the Sanbao eunuch. Like the teacher, he is physically and mentally strong, and he is a model teacher. Well, let’s stop talking. There is a route in the map of the world. This route...is to cross the ocean on the west coast, and then...let me see...according to the ocean currents and monsoons...if this is the time, they will cross here...it is bound to...drift to...Wa country..."

  Tang Yin was taken aback for a moment: "This... Teacher... Are you sure?"

   "Not sure." Fang Jifan sighed: "It is very likely that they have already died in the belly of the fish."

   Tang Yin regretted it.

Fang Jifan smiled again and said: "But I want to tell you some good news. Even if they were wiped out and died in the ocean, the responsibility will not fall on us. They sailed according to the route of the Sanbao eunuch, so... If Zhang Seeing the crime, the queen thought about it, and then everyone would agree to kill him. This is because they followed the plan of the Sanbao eunuch, and no one can stop it. Queen Zhang, can they still open the shop and whip the Sanbao eunuch? Can't the old man's corpse be made?"

   "..." Tang Yin began to ponder in his mind, and just now his mentor said, besides the emperor, who else is he most admired?

Fang Jifan was full of interest: "But... if it happens, they come back, they arrived on Wa Island, and according to my understanding of the temperament of these two brothers, they generally don't want to trust others easily. Speaking of it, the Zhang family brothers and I , and even kissing, but they are very guarded against me. Not to mention, those Japanese people, their temperament, never believe that others will treat them well and give them a lot of money. So...they Generally, they prefer more direct means to take care of themselves...for example...robbing!"

  Tang Yin took a breath: "If so, can they subdue the Japanese?"

Fang Jifan stared at Tang Yin, and couldn't help smiling wryly: "It's a good thing that I let you control the navy as a teacher. Don't you know what kind of virtues those Qiuba go to sea? They have knives and swords, guns and cannons, and sea-going ships. The island's geography is long and narrow, and there is no place that cannot be attacked. No place is not their weakness. The Zhang brothers' fleets are all carefully selected, and they have participated in countless naval battles and battles to seize ports and strongholds. , take a guess, are these Japanese people their opponents?"

   Tang Yin focused his eyes and nodded solemnly.

  If the Zhang brothers are still alive, they must be the nemesis of the Japanese.

  The Japanese have a long and narrow geography. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the whole Japanese, they are all guarded in different places. If there are a thousand people in a city, it is not bad. What's more, I have heard for a long time that the interior of the Wa Kingdom is extremely loose, which is completely different from that of Ming Dynasty. Obviously, the navy of the Wa country will not be the opponent of the Zhang family brothers. And the Zhang brothers can attack any seaside city in the Wa country at any time, run away after killing them, turn their heads, and after a few days, they may appear in a city hundreds of miles away. When the Japanese pirates were rampant, to trouble the southeast, Daming Kong had millions of troops, but they were beaten everywhere. After finally mobilizing the army and horses, they were already on board.

  Only this time, the Zhang brothers who attacked the Japanese country are stronger than the original Japanese pirates. They have rich combat experience, have experience in large-scale combat, and are well-equipped. They even have enough firecrackers and artillery...

  Tang Yin stared at Fang Jifan: "Master... If so, the Japanese problem... will be solved."

"There are two ways to solve things. One is to solve the current problem, and the other is to directly solve the person who caused the problem. Now we are relying on the latter. If my guess is correct, maybe... the Zhang brothers have already We have arrived in the Wa kingdom. In a few days, there will be news. At that time, you and I, master and apprentice, will be able to pick up this great contribution for nothing. Bohu, my mentor has always valued you very much. At that time, I will give you the first credit .”

   Tang Yin hurriedly shook his head: "The mentor is the first achievement, how dare the students bear it."

Fang Jifan waved his hands, and said with pride: "Naturally, we can't put all our hopes on the Zhang brothers. The Ningbo navy should also be ready to go. If the Zhang brothers don't kill them, the Ningbo navy must follow suit." Afterwards, let’s go to Japan for a tour, write a letter to Qi Jingtong, let him go at any time!”

   "Students obey."

  Fang Jifan heaved a sigh of relief.

  But at this time, Wang Jinyuan came in a hurry: "Master, the Japanese envoy Ouchi Yoshiyan came to see you."

  Fang Jifan: "I don't know any Ouchi Yoshino, I only know Umegawa Neiku, let him go!"

  Wang Jinyuan said with a smile: "No, no, he has prepared generous gifts, which are two big carts."

  Fang Jifan couldn't help saying: "I hate it! Why didn't you say that you are a brother-in-law. A friend came from afar. It's not easy to say, call."

  Wang Jinyuan nodded.

  A moment later, Ouchi Yoshihito hurried in.

When he came out of the Fengtian Palace, he met Fang Jifan and Tang Yin, and he was in a state of agitation, thinking, why did the Emperor of Ming summon him first, ask his teacher to question him, and then summoned the fearful Fang Duwei, and Tang Xueshi, who was famous for fighting Japanese pirates, thought it was wrong, so he came to see Fang Jifan and find out the truth.

   "I have seen Fang Duwei, Fang Duwei, and I have admired him for a long time."

  Fang Jifan said: "Please sit down and talk."

  Ouchi Yoshino smiled, leaned forward and sat down: "Fang Duwei, really..."

   "He's really handsome, full of talent and looks, isn't he?"

"ah…"

  Fang Jifan said with shame: "When you came to visit me the year before last, that's what you said."

   "Ah..." Ouchi Yoshitsune couldn't help but said, "I actually thought that Fang Duwei had forgotten the past."

  Fang Jifan said awe-inspiringly: "How is this possible? Fang Jifan treats people with sincerity, and will never forget his friend, brother-in-law. If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Hall. I don't know what to learn when I come here."

  Ouchi Yoshitsune was ashamed, he felt very tired dealing with this guy.

"Today, Your Majesty Daming has reprimanded the ravages of the Japanese pirates. I feel uneasy. Please Captain Fang believe that the Japanese pirates have nothing to do with our country. Your Excellency, I have absolutely nothing to do with these Japanese pirates. The two countries are brothers. The emperor’s accusations against the Japanese country are really heartbreaking. It makes people sleepless. Just because of a group of bandits who have nothing to do with our country. It destroyed the diplomatic relations between the two countries and drew China's blame..."

   "Is it true that Erguo has nothing to do with Japanese pirates?"

   "Exactly."

   "Can I swear?" Fang Jifan said.

  Ouchi Yoshihito said seriously: "Yes, if there is a connection, ten thousand arrows will pierce the heart."

  He looked at Fang Jifan carefully.

  Fang Jifan smiled: "Since that's the case, it's fine. It seems that there is indeed a misunderstanding. From this point of view, His Majesty really blamed you."
