Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1340 The one who revives me, the crown prince

  Hoo...

  Turned to the seventh page...

  Emperor Hongzhi actually saw himself.

  Hmm...it's a portrait, wearing a crown of heaven, wearing a crown, and sitting on it, full of power.

   Actually still has me...

   Should I be happy or worried?

  This rebellious son is really daring, isn't this riding on my head?

  Master Tiandi Monarch, you occupy the first six pages, but I am in...

  Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes and stared at Zhu Houzhao fiercely.

  This is too nonsense, this is a book, it is to be taught to children, if someone else reads it, then...isn’t this a mess between ruler and minister, father and son?

   Zhu Houzhao blinked.

  As if feeling the anger of the father.

But he is the old god: "Father, my son knows what Father means, Father must want to ask... that, that... why is the portrait of Father in the back, hey... hey... Father, pay attention , look down."

  Emperor Hongzhi half-closed his eyes and looked down.

   But there was a bold line written under the portrait: "The first page..."

   "..."

  Then he turned back to Zhu Houzhao's photo of Zhu Houzhao riding a horse on the first page, but at the bottom, it said 'page two'.

   This is almost tantamount to deceiving one's ears and stealing the bell, insulting people's IQ.

  Emperor Hongzhi still couldn't help but said, "It really doesn't make sense."

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly explained: "Father, it's not my fault. When I first typesetting, my father should be at the top, but those **** printing craftsmen made a mistake, and I thought, this printing It's all printed, but you can't waste the money, can you reprint it? Or, if the father is really angry, then simply arrest hundreds of people from the printing workshop, chop off their heads, and give it to him. Please forgive me, father."

  Emperor Hongzhi wanted to open his mouth.

  Finally, my throat rolled a bit, and I endured it!

  He just said indifferently: "The next edition of the textbook will be sent to the palace first, and it will be printed after I approve it."

  Zhu Houzhao suddenly smiled, and said in his heart that there is no next edition, and he will use this edition for the rest of his life. But with a smile on his face, he said obediently: "I obey the order."

  Emperor Hongzhi continued to look down. On the eighth page, he saw Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan was wearing a square scarf and a Confucian shirt.

  Heaven and earth master and teacher, Fang Jifan founded Xishan Academy, is the patriarch of countless scholars at present, it can be said that there are peaches and plums all over the world, there is a portrait of him here, but it is also said that he used to be in the past.

  Flipping back, the first article is about the surnames of hundreds of families, after that is the thousand-character prose, and after that is the three-character classic, and then there are poems, Li Bai, Du Mu, etc...

  Emperor Hongzhi looked carefully, but found that there was an indescribable taste in this textbook, what was it like, he tried hard to recall.

   After thinking for a long time, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly realized.

This textbook seems simple, but it is easy first and then difficult. From the initial hundred surnames, to simpler poems, and then, it gets deeper and deeper. It is easy first and then difficult. I think it is for students to understand slowly. Digestion is simple on the surface, but in fact every article and poem in it has been carefully deliberated.

  Although I was dumbfounded by Zhu Houzhao's little action just now.

  But after reading the textbook, Emperor Hongzhi was overwhelmed.

  The things the prince is going to do are unprecedented.

   After pondering for a long time, countless thoughts flashed through Emperor Hongzhi's mind.

  Emperor Hongzhi nodded suddenly: "The prince is also the one who promotes my Ming Dynasty."

  He left these words and said nothing more.

  Stand up silently, and wink at Mu Bin.

  Mu Bin understood, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has driven back to the palace."

  Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan were busy sending Emperor Hongzhi off.

When Emperor Hongzhi got into the car and went away, Zhu Houzhao said to Fang Jifan flatteredly: "Well, I'll just say it, father also likes such illustrations, haha, this guy Tang Yin is still very skilled. , I painted this painting so vividly, it’s no wonder that my father, the prince, was so moved when he saw me. Oh, thinking about it this way, this palace thinks that these words should be printed in the next edition of the text. I will not be called Prince from now on, but Prince Zhongxing, and I will engrave a seal tomorrow, as my father said."

  Fang Jifan let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Zhu Houzhao speechlessly. He had been suspecting that Zhu Houzhao was mentally disabled, and his symptoms were not mild.

  Fang Jifan said seriously: "Okay, Your Royal Highness, let's do business, are you hungry?"

   "Hungry." Zhu Houzhao pursed his mouth, making a look of starvation.

   Very good, as expected there is still a common language.

  Fang Jifan felt very relieved.

  His Majesty's praise for the prince has spread like wildfire.

  The one who prospers the Ming Dynasty is also the crown prince.

  This short sentence seems to be light and light, but it is extremely heavy.

   Obviously, this is the approval of His Majesty Shuntian Mansion.

  Although Shuntian Mansion has broken the rule that officials do not practice yamen, and although it has set up public schools, it teaches new knowledge, which always makes a group of old antiques angry.

   But, so what.

   There is no choice but to let the flowers fall. They have the support of the palace, but they are also fierce. They want money and people, and the hearts of the people are there. This mighty trend cannot be stopped by a few sour talents.

  At this time, Ouyang Zhi, the governor of Baoding, resigned his duties according to the order, and then entered Beijing.

  It was already evening when I arrived at the capital, and it was impossible to face the saint that day. Ouyang Zhi came to see Fang Jifan first.

  Master and apprentice, haven't seen each other for a long time.

   Ouyang Zhi met Fang Jifan, bowed his head, with tears in his eyes, choked up and said: "The student has met his teacher."

  Ouyang Zhi is a man with a conscience.

  He cherishes his mentor more than anyone else. '

Without a mentor, I am just a small scholar, but now, I am a big official in the frontier. I have been taught by my mentor, and I am what I am today. Thinking of what I did in the Baoding Chief Political Commissioner, no matter how many achievements I have, I will be full after all. Being questioned, if it wasn't for the mentor who sheltered himself from the wind and rain in Beijing, and blocked those open and hidden arrows, how could it be his turn to make drastic moves in Baoding.

  Ouyang Zhi burst into tears.

  Master, his old man... looks younger and younger.

  On the contrary, it was me...a bit old.

   After all, it's nearly forty.

  Fang Jifan sat on the chair and nodded to him: "Well, not bad, not bad, you are back, and you still remember being a teacher, very good."

   These words terrified Ouyang Zhi.

  What does it mean to remember being a teacher? Could it be that the teacher blamed me for being disrespectful? He didn't dare to raise his eyes at Fang Jifan, but said with trepidation: "I'm in Baoding, and there's never a day that I don't remember my teacher's teachings, and there's no day that I don't miss my teacher. In the past few years, I've been busy with official duties and worked **** my work. Copywriting, negligence of the duty of serving the teacher, the disciple really deserves to die."

  Fang Jifan let out a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, why is he afraid of becoming like this, I am a teacher, am I so terrible?

  He thought about it carefully, he is not a vicious person!

Hey…

   Can't figure out why Ouyang Zhi is so afraid of himself, but it doesn't matter, it's good for the apprentice to be in awe of himself, so he waved to Ouyang Zhi.

   "Get up, don't be like this, you sit down, come, drink some tea."

  Ouyang Zhi was silent for a moment, then got up, leaned over and sat down.

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty ordered you to return to Beijing this time. It seems that there are other arrangements, but... as a teacher, I was thinking, next, is there someone to replace you as the new governor who promoted the New Deal in Baoding? This Baoding chief envoy , The relationship is very important, when His Majesty arrives, he will definitely ask for your suggestion, do you have someone in mind."

  Ouyang Zhi was silent.

  Fang Jifan felt that communicating with him would **** him off, so he stretched his face and waited for him to react.

  Ouyang Zhicai said: "Teacher, someone has already been selected as a disciple. The person selected this time is none other than Yang Yiqing."

  Fang Jifan was frightened, what the hell, Yang Yiqing, isn't this the one who has a grudge against him?

He was the governor of Shanxi at the beginning, and later entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In order to fight against the new learning, he even did not hesitate to become a magistrate of Tongzhou, but who would have expected that he would make a mess in the end, and Emperor Hongzhi was furious and demoted him as a small boy in Tongzhou. official.

  This guy... can turn salty fish over?

  What did he think of me as Fang Jifan? He really thought I was a kind person.

Seeing that his teacher's face was even worse, Ouyang Zhi said patiently: "Since Yang Yiqing became a small official in Tongzhou, he has been extremely responsible for his work, studied quickly and made rapid progress. He first worked as a civil servant in a county under the jurisdiction of Tongzhou, and after that he was promoted several times. The understanding of industry and commerce is no longer inferior to others, and he is a person with unique talents. Students in Baoding sometimes suffer from exhaustion. Although there are many capable talents around him, the one with the strongest view of the overall situation is It was him. Since then, he has taken over the post of county magistrate, general judge of Baoding Prefecture, etc., and has been doing very well. Baoding chief envoy built a new district more than a year ago, with the intention of connecting with the capital. Before, it was just a barren land, and he came to preside over the new area, and his political achievements were first-class in the state capital and counties under the jurisdiction of the Baoding chief envoy."

Ouyang Zhi was silent again, and then said: "Not only that, he has also made great achievements in the new learning. He has asked students for advice on the new policy and new learning many times. At the beginning, the students even guided him. Later, he was able to infer other things from one instance. , I came to clear up the students’ doubts. This person is a great talent, but now he has changed his mind, has outstanding achievements in government, and has an excellent official reputation, so the students think that he is the most suitable candidate at the moment.”

  Fang Jifan: "..."

  Yang Yiqing is indeed a man of real ability.

  He was originally a man who had been a great official in the frontier, and also managed the horse administration. The fundamental reason why he was convicted at the beginning was that he had the limitations of his time.

And once such a person, he realizes that the previous road will not work, he begins to let go of his high-ranking attitude, and leans over to learn new learning and new policies. His unleashed potential is combined with his previous life experience. To some extent, it is by no means comparable to those mediocre people.

  Fang Jifan let out a sigh of relief.

  A human essence is a human essence.
