Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1543 Thunder, rain and dew are all your grace

  Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help feeling emotional after hearing Fang Jifan's words.

   This is the difference between a son and a son-in-law.

   are all smart.

  But a person who can't wait to write his intelligence on his face.

  The other one is much better, with an open mind, and never seems to take credit for himself.

  Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: "Speaking of it, I was indeed wrong. I only saw the benefits in front of me, and what Fang Qing's family sought was also the benefits of the community."

He shook his head, and then said: "Since I know my mistake, of course I have to correct it. The prince and Fang Qing's family should manage this workshop well. From now on, I don't care about all the affairs of this workshop. You have to sell medicine. , to do other things is your own business, and you are responsible for your own profits and losses."

  Let's talk, he took a deep look at Fang Jifan with deep meaning in his eyes.

  Fang Jifan is right.

  In this world, what is more important than grinding a prince.

  Silver...instead, it is second.

  Speaking of which, Fang Jifan is a man with real skills. Although sometimes, these ideas are often unexpected, but it works.

  What the prince just said touched the essence of the emperor's art.

   Just because the prince can realize this, for Emperor Hongzhi, it is worthless.

   "I lost, I admit it, Prince..."

  Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses in a daze.

  He is very puzzled.

  So, he hurriedly said: "My son is here."

  Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be in a better mood after he understood a major event. He smiled and said to Zhu Houzhao, "You are not bad, too."

  Looking at his father's smile, Zhu Houzhao became entangled, why did he add the word Ye.

  He worked hard to sift through his memories. From the beginning, he worked hard to run the workshop, and then he made a lot of money and bet with his father, which was also proposed by himself.

  After that...the emperor messed up, and it was within his own expectations.

  But why is it?

   I can't understand it.

  Has the father eaten the rice from Fang Jifan's family?

  Zhu Houzhao learned the lesson from half a month ago, and said with a smile: "Thanks to the praise from the father, the minister is overjoyed."

  But at this time, Zhou Wenying had gone and returned.

Panting, he ran to Zhu Houzhao and said: "Your Highness, the villain just brought people together to call the channel dealers they are in contact with for negotiation. They were also very happy when they learned that His Highness took over the workshop again. Now, their hearts are full of joy." It’s solid, many people made a decision on the spot, wanting to add more orders, I don’t know how many goods are in the warehouse, whether to dispatch them immediately, so as not to worry everyone.”

  Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jian looked at each other in dismay.

   Is this an additional order?

  Just because I learned that Zhu Houzhao is back in charge of the workshop?

  Zhu Houzhao said happily: "Good job, wait to receive the reward."

   Zhou Wenying said ashamedly: "Your Highness, this is nothing, in fact... the distributors still look at His Highness's face, if it is someone else..."

When he talked about other people, he meant something, and then he said: "If other people, even small people, say that they are brothers of those channel dealers, they will definitely not place new orders. His Royal Highness Suzhi will always do everything possible to control production and rectify channels to protect their interests, so naturally he flocks to them."

  With an order, it will be easy to handle.

  Zhu Houzhao summoned the people in the warehouse and ordered them to liquidate the inventory in the warehouse and dispatch the goods out of the warehouse.

  It only took a moment...he got the job done.

  Emperor Hongzhi was determined.

  When Zhu Houzhao came back from work, he saw Emperor Hongzhi Fang Jifan said: "Fang Qing's family, this workshop will be handed over to you and the prince. I am very relieved to have you here."

  He gave Fang Jifan a deep look. Fang Jifan understood the meaningful look in his eyes.

   Earning money is certainly a gratifying thing, but it would be great if the workshop can grow.

  Of course, the most important thing is to continue to sharpen the prince. This is an opportunity for the prince to learn more about how to be a good emperor.

  Fang Jifan said in a familiar way: "Your Majesty is really well-intentioned, and my son understands it. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will be here to take care of His Highness."

  Zhu Houzhao: "..."

Emperor Hongzhi laughed: "This time, I am convinced that I lost, and I feel comfortable losing. I lost a gamble, but I got more than I lost in this gamble. Fang Qing's family is everywhere. Thinking about it, I... feel very relieved, come and give Fang Jifan five chapters of crowns and four seasons of crowns as a show of honor."

  Fang Jifan's face froze.

  Damn it...

   It seems... It seems that I am not, I don't have, and I don't want to.

  This crown dress is not something everyone can wear.

   Among them, the nine-chapter Dagon Mian is the dress of the crown prince, which is used for offering sacrifices to the country, accepting books, and accepting concubines. Usually, only seven chapters of the Dagon Mian can be worn. The same goes for the Prince.

  The five chapters of the crown are the prince's ordinary dress, or the prince's son can only wear it when the father's birthday and various festivals are celebrated.

  Therefore...Give Dagon five chapters, which is the treatment only for the prince or the prince's son. And if the county king wants the same treatment, he can only wear it during festivals.

   Your Majesty, what does this mean?

  Give yourself such treatment, but I'm just a prince.

   Is it too ostentatious?

  Fang Jifan was beating drums in his heart.

  He is too familiar with the pig butcher's technique. Before killing, he feeds the pig a good meal, lets it out for entertainment, and then binds it up, seals its throat with a knife, and drains the blood.

   Is this a good meal?

"Oh..." His mental words were only for a moment, and Fang Jifan waved his hand without hesitation: "Your Majesty's kindness, how dare I accept it... This is beyond the rules of etiquette, how dare I wear a crown, even if it is my father, Don’t dare to wear it lightly, Your Majesty must not, absolutely must not, my ministers absolutely dare not accept it, my ministers are ashamed, ashamed and dare not take it.”

  Looking at Fang Jifan waving his hands quickly, he looked in fear.

  Emperor Hongzhi was overjoyed. He laughed heartily: "This is your strength. You have finally learned to be modest and don't care about fame and fortune. But if you refuse, I will give it to you..."

He glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and said meaningfully: "The prince and you are brothers and sisters. I can't teach him, but he is willing to listen to your teachings. I just want the prince to know that you should be more humble. .”

   After finishing speaking, Emperor Hongzhi got up: "It's getting late, and I should go back to the palace. Here, the prince learned a lot, and I also learned a lot. Liu Qing, Li Qing, let's go."

  Liu and Li nodded.

   I have to say that they are also convinced at this time.

  The truth that the prince said just now seems superficial, but in fact it is better than the simple emperor's mind.

  Of course, these words cannot be said to the outside world. To the outside world, it is inevitable to say some high-sounding words such as etiquette, justice and shame.

  It's a brilliant art of manipulating people, isn't it exactly so?

  The two followed Emperor Hongzhi step by step and left the public house.

  Chen Tong was in a hurry.

  Your Majesty is leaving, why don't you call yourself.

   What does this mean?

  He didn't know what to do next.

  Chen Tong's face was green and white, and he finally mustered up the courage to catch up: "Your Majesty..."

  Emperor Hongzhi stopped and looked back at him: "Ah...what's the matter?"

  Chen Tong blushed, and didn't know what to say for a while.

  Emperor Hongzhi just glanced at him indifferently: "Why is the Qing family silent again?"

   "Minister...whether...you also serve His Majesty and drive back to the palace, whether...whether you return to the household department to be on duty."

   Li Dongyang looked at Chen Tong.

  Tragedy ah...

  He also served as Minister of the Household Department, and Chen Tong has always been valued by him in the Household Department.

   Originally, this time, I wanted him to show his face in front of His Majesty, but who knows...

  He shook his head...

  Emperor Hongzhi looked at Chen Tong with amusement, but said: "Stay in the household department..."

  Chen Tong cautiously continued to look at Emperor Hongzhi with a look of anticipation on his face.

  Emperor Hongzhi said: "What's the use of staying in the household department?"

  Chen Tong: "..."

  Emperor Hongzhi said indifferently: "If you are in the household department, my treasury, how much money can you save?"

   "Chen...Chen..." Chen Tong suddenly felt grief, indignation and humiliation.

   "You might as well just stay in this workshop and study hard. What is the way of economy is of great benefit to you."

  Emperor Hongzhi dropped these words lightly and left.

  Chen Tong knelt here alone, as if struck by lightning.

   stay here...

  What's the matter?

  I am the Minister of the Household Department, and I am in the temple.

  So... when can I return to the household department?

  If His Majesty didn't remember it, and nine out of ten, His Majesty might not remember him in the future.

  So... don't you stay in this workshop all your life?

  Seeing Emperor Hongzhi leave, he couldn't help but burst into tears and said, "There is no calamity, there is no calamity."

   As he spoke, he wanted to cry again.

  Being able to reach his stage, I originally thought that if I took another step forward, the future would be even brighter.

  Where did you know that after coming out with His Majesty, you have fallen to this point.

   What a pity.

  He burst into tears like rain, and the tears spilled on the skirt of his clothes.

  Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao respectfully sent the emperor back and saw him weeping here.

  Fang Jifan was annoyed, he was always the most direct with this kind of person, and he just slapped him when he stepped forward.

   It's just that he slapped lightly with his palm, but Chen Tong, who was caught off guard, was stunned: "You...why did you hit someone, it's so humiliating..."

Fang Jifan grinned his teeth and said: "Dog, the rules of this workshop are like this, I can beat whoever I want, why are you crying here, eat my food, dare to ruin my fortune, if you can't beat you to death, let's see What do you think, pour tea."

  Chen Tong glared at Fang Jifan, his eyes were about to breathe fire, it really didn't make sense, today...today...

  His old face twitched, and anger overflowed on the surface.

But suddenly... this angry and distorted face suddenly squeezed out a smile, and his voice became gentle in an instant: "Okay, okay, Duke Qi has a true temperament. I have admired him for a long time. The matter of pouring tea and water is true. I'm afraid that the lower official can't do it, Qi Guogong might as well look at the lower official's face and give other errands, how about it?"
