Chapter 1598: There is a universe in His Majesty's belly
Fang Jifan's words were completely heartfelt.
Although he looks crazy and crazy on weekdays, he still understands things. He never is vague in front of the main business.
He didn't take anyone's attention in this world, but the premise of all this was to coax Emperor Hongzhi.
To be honest, if Your Majesty does not take up half of the benefits, Fang Jifan would not dare to let go.
But now that we have a support, even if we have a huge deal, Fang Jifan dares to do it.
Emperor Hongzhi saw Fang Jifan showing joy, and the joy came from his heart and nodded secretly.
Look at Jifan, it’s so simple and sincere. I share his benefits and he can be as happy as the New Year.
I remembered many people who entered the court and became officials, but I don’t know how many of them left a story in the ten miles of Qinhuai, including silk, satin, and laughing for thousands of gold, and servants. In Chongwen Hall, I like to talk about the most about extravagance and simplicity. I spoke to the people for profit. Now I understand that it is these people who compete for profit with the people.
They use the most harshest perspective to test others, but treat themselves, but it is another standard.
Although Emperor Hongzhi felt relieved, he couldn't help but look at Fang Jifan and said, "In this Xiaoling Mausoleum, Jifan has no other insights except for the economic way?"
Fang Jifan's face couldn't help but thrust. Well, he really didn't expect anything else, he only knew that someone wanted to commit suicide and thought that he might get rich.
The wealthy families in Jiangnan have a stronger family background... so they have stronger ability to resist economic crises.
This is why the land and land and property of the land in the north almost fell into the hands of the money house, while not many land in the south of the Yangtze River fell into the money house.
But now... isn't it a good time?
In peace and prosperity, people were happy to have land because land was the foundation. Once chaos arose, the land became a burden and burden.
Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi looked at him with a kind look, Fang Jifan naturally would not disappoint Emperor Hongzhi, so he replied without hesitation: "Your Majesty, when my son came to Xiaoling, I thought of Emperor Taizu Gao. Emperor Taizu Gao was in trouble, and he had a hard time starting a business, and his martial arts were rising, and his martial arts were in chaos, and his literary achievements were brought to peace. I thought he had made such achievements, expelled the Tartars, restored the mountains and rivers, and now he was buried here. Although he had been a hundred and fifty years, he could still be kind to his descendants, and his son... was filled with emotion."
Emperor Hongzhi looked excited and couldn't help but say, "What are your feelings?"
Fang Jifan said sincerely: "It is said that the greed of a gentleman is killed for five generations. From Emperor Taizu Gao to Your Majesty, it has been six generations. Your Majesty strives for Emperor Taizu Gao and implements the new policy. His thoughts are so similar to Emperor Taizu Gao's original intention of governing the world. Isn't what he does also set the world and creates a peaceful world and brings kindness to his descendants?"
"But, Your Majesty came to this Xiaoling Mausoleum today because... the thieves were sinister and dared to kill His Majesty. Over the past 150 years, the emperors of all generations have treated the scholars preferentially, given taxes to the gentry, and promoted them to the court to officials. I think that Emperor Taizu Gao set these rules for preferential treatment of scholars in the hope that they could be used by the court, assist the court in establishing the country and ensuring the people. After His Majesty ascended the throne, he was generous and generous.
It is even better than before. But what is the result? As a result, since Emperor Taizu Gao has not improved the lives of the people, and they are still extremely poor and everywhere. Countless people have lost their land and become refugees. When they encounter disasters, they still lose their family and lose their children as before. The ministers even... have heard the rumors of people eating each other. Your Majesty... The people, starting with Emperor Taizu Gao, not only did their situation not improve, but they became even worse."
When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he was speechless, as if he was thinking about something.
Fang Jifan said again: "So in this south of the Yangtze River, the ordinary people lost their land and rushed to enter the rich, change their names, hoping to sell them as slaves, but more people want to cling to the rich but not get them, want to be slaves and have some support, but they have nothing to gain. Your Majesty has visited the people privately, and he knows the hardships of people's livelihood. My sons were thinking, if my ancestors of the Ming Dynasty knew that the wealth of the world was stolen by others, the people's grievances in the world gathered in the court and in the Your Majesty, then... I dare to ask, how would they imagine that they have spirits in heaven?"
Fang Jifan looked at Emperor Hongzhi's slightly frowning and continued, "Your Majesty, the original intention of pursuing scholars was to safeguard the world. To safeguard the world, the people had some food and clothing. In this world, there were more land, so there were more refugees, and the resentment of the people was a little more. The original intention of treating them before has not yet been realized, but the situation has become more intense and urgent. His Majesty only treated them harshly, and they were rampant and had no scruples. First, they wanted to kill the imperial envoy, and even tried to falsely accuse the Duke of Wei's mansion and forced the Duke of Wei to rebel. These kinds of sins are so unspeakable that the ministers were very uncomfortable in the Xiaoling Mausoleum these days..."
Fang Jifan worked hard to make a very uncomfortable expression, but the joy in his eyes and the good mood of arriving on a large scale could not be concealed.
Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes at this time: "If you are me, what should I do?"
Fang Jifan shook his head quickly: "My son dare not, but my son dare not, how dare I be Your Majesty? Besides, my son dare not guess Your Majesty's thoughts. However... If my son dares to guess, if Emperor Taizu Gao is alive, he will never allow these traitors to harm the world and must kill them completely."
Fang Jifan finally showed a hostility.
Perhaps because I came to this world and saw the dangers of the world, deep down, I still couldn't get rid of the violent aura of the prodigal son in the past.
Emperor Hongzhi's face became heavy, paused for a moment, and he said calmly: "I understand."
Emperor Hongzhi said again: "I had a dream yesterday and dreamed of Emperor Taizu Gao. He said something to me, which coincides with what you said."
Fang Jifan: "..."
Fang Jifan felt that Emperor Hongzhi was fooling him.
Emperor Taizu Gao really knows how to dream? This is impossible. If he knows how to dream, I will be the first one to be killed in this Xiaoling Mausoleum. Isn’t it our Jiefan?
Uh, why does it look like... His Majesty is trying to do something with his dream?
Emperor Hongzhi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I have ordered the British Duke Zhang Ying to quickly dispatch people to come here in the name of offering sacrifices to Xiaoling Mausoleum. I will arrive soon..."
"Your Majesty is wise." Fang Jifan said with a dry smile.
…………
Two more days later.
But someone came to the foot of the purple gold mountain.
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but wonder and ordered Xiaolingwei to go down and pick him up.
The visitor was Cao Yuan, the left deputy chief censor.
The left deputy censor was stationed in Nanjing and was the leader of the Nanjing Censor. He was responsible for supervising the officials in Nanjing. Because he had the power to impeach, almost no one dared to provoke him in half of the south of the Yangtze River.
Fang Jifan felt interesting when he heard that Cao Yuan had arrived.
He really had some impression of this person.
In history, Cao Yuan colluded with Liu Jin after Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne. Because he was recommended by Liu Jin, he was appointed as the Minister of Personnel, a Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, and was the highest minister.
Of course, this person had the experience of governor Gansu. When he was governor Gansu, Zhu Houzhao loved tigers and leopards, so he sent eunuchs to look for tigers and leopards outside the pass. At that time, there were Tatars outside the pass. Cao Yuan was afraid that because of this, his relationship with the Tatars would worsen and cause border quarrels, so he wrote a letter to stop.
Of course... until now, Emperor Hongzhi is still there, Zhu Houzhao has not ascended the throne yet, and Cao Yuan naturally has changed his life trajectory.
He panted and took the officials up the mountain.
Emperor Hongzhi was still wearing a commoner, sitting upright in the side hall, waiting for Cao Yuan to lead the officials.
As soon as we met, everyone looked at each other. Cao Yuan in front of Emperor Hongzhi was a kind-faced old man. He hurriedly treated Emperor Hongzhi: "The Qin envoy was frightened, and everyone in Nanjing was shocked. I never expected that the thief was so harsh and brave. I was so arrogant that I was the left deputy censor. I had already issued a note and ordered the Qin envoy to investigate it carefully. I should be fine."
He looked at Emperor Hongzhi with concern, as if he was worried about Emperor Hongzhi.
Now that Zhang Mao's army has not arrived, there is no distinction between the enemy and the enemy in this Nanjing city. Emperor Hongzhi is willing to continue to be his envoy.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Mr. Cao has been worried too much. This time, there is no danger and no serious damage."
However, when Cao Yuan saw that Emperor Hongzhi did not salute him, he muttered in his heart.
Logically speaking, the person in front of him is certainly an imperial envoy, so he must first perform the rituals, but the imperial envoy is only the Hanlin identity, and he is the left deputy chief censor, with a high position and a powerful position. At this time, the other party should pay tribute to him.
But the other party just sits upright and cannot move, which is rude.
But when you think about it carefully, this imperial envoy must have been frightened. He is just a Hanlin who has never seen the world. Now that he has suffered such a crime, he is in vain, which is understandable.
So... Cao Yuan smiled and said, "It's good if you have nothing to do, and it's good if you have nothing to do. If you have such a big thing, it's not my pleasure to see you. Now that I can see the imperial envoy, I'll feel relieved."
So he sat down and someone poured tea. Cao Yuan stared at Emperor Hongzhi: "I dare to ask the envoy, have he found any clues? Otherwise... why would he cause this murder?"
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Everything came suddenly. I still feel scared when I think about it. As for what I found... but it is inconvenient to say it."
"Yes, yes." Cao Yuan laughed heartily again. He was very dignified, gentle and polite: "Of course, after all, what is involved is the Qin case. The imperial court appointed Qin envoy to come to Jinling, which must be because Qin envoy was smart and capable. However... I have something to say, I don't know whether it should be said or not."
