Human hearts are all flesh.

The same is true for the general Jinzizhong.

Seeing so much credit, you can't take it for yourself.

His heart hurts.

It hurts like a heart-wrenching pain.

But what can I do?

After sighing, I stopped thinking about this sad thing.

At this time, a discussion continued in the capital.

Whether to send Beijing camp to help Datong has become a controversial point for everyone to confront.

Now everyone holds the same word, and everyone has their own reasons.

Liu Jian and others believed that the assistance should not be rushing for help. At this point, if there is something wrong with Datong, it would be too late to rush for help. It might even be possible that the army that rushes for help would be directly exposed to the Tatars' cavalry.

This may replay another Bumaster turn.

But some people also argued that Liu Jian and others did not dare to fight with the Tatars and did not seek assistance to Datong, which was to indulge the Tatar army into the pass and rob.

How many people are going to be displaced, how many people are going to die under the Tatars' swords.

Everyone argued endlessly about this, and the Qingliu in the court began to become dissatisfied with the current military and political affairs.

It is believed that all this was due to the court's negligence towards Ma Zheng, so Ma Wensheng, the Minister of War, was hung up again.

Ma Wensheng was convinced, it was a turbulent time, but what could he say? He could only shrank his head and avoid the limelight for the time being.

Emperor Hongzhi was upset about this for a long time. He even thought that the prince was in charge of the country and he personally led the army. When things came to this point, it seemed that there was no way to follow the traditions of his ancestors and lead the army personally.

But soon, with the firm opposition of the ministers, this idea was dispelled.

Emperor Hongzhi returned to the warm pavilion.

Waiting for recruitment, Hanlin Ouyang Zhi stands sideways and left and right.

Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a long time before suddenly saying: "The city wall suddenly collapsed from Datong Pass. There were no Tatars in this city. I think it was the Han people who did it, but why did they do this? What benefits will it do to them?"

Ouyang Zhi was silent for a moment before saying lightly: "Your Majesty, people die for money and birds die for food. Even if the dragon gives birth to nine sons, the nine sons are still different."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Yes, the dragon has nine sons, each with different characteristics. I only have one son. Oh... But is he a dragon or Taotie?" Emperor Hongzhi laughed and shook his head: "Last time, he left in the hall, it was really inappropriate, don't you think so?"

Ouyang Zhi thought about it and replied seriously: "Your Highness is like a fire, it's not a bad thing."

"Why isn't it a bad thing?" Emperor Hongzhi stared at Ouyang Zhi in confusion.

Ouyang Zhi said: "Because even his mentor is willing to follow him, this shows that His Royal Highness is extremely wise."

“…”

This logic is very powerful.

However, Emperor Hongzhi was amused in pain: "I am very worried about Datong now, are you worried?"

Ouyang Zhi thought for a while and nodded, "Worried."

"But why do you have no expression on your face, as if you have cut off the seven emotions and six desires?" Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Ouyang Zhi with admiration.

Ouyang Zhi pondered for a moment: "I may be more clumsy."

“…”

What a likable guy.

Mountains collapsed before but their colors remained unchanged.

But when asked why, when people are like this, most people may be complacent and say that they are brave or that this is a question of personal cultivation. But Ouyang Zhi was too modest and directly answered that this is his clumsy.

Emperor Hongzhi did not believe that he was a clumsy person. A clumsy person could not become the top scholar. A clumsy person could not deal with the Tatars in Jinzhou for half a month, and finally let the Tatars return in vain.

"It is really rare for people to have such an evaluation of themselves. I have seen many people who think they are capable, and even your mentor likes to flatter themselves. But you are different from them. You are a real gentleman. There are many people in the court, with people in their mouths, and there are countless people who pretend to be humble. They are considered gentlemen, so there are more. But when it comes to character, they are not as good as you."

After Emperor Hongzhi said that, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head.

Ouyang Zhi didn't say anything anymore.

Faced with praise, he still had no joy on his face.

Emperor Hongzhi liked Ouyang Zhi's personality even more. He always felt that he and Ouyang Zhi could resonate with each other.

"Does Ouyang Qing's family think that Datong Pass is in danger and something terrible may happen?"

Ouyang Zhi thought about it, shook his head, and replied very seriously: "No, my mentor has ordered my nephew Chen Ao to go, so there should be no problem."

“…”

"Because of this, I made such a judgment. Ouyang Qing's family, your mentor, should not blindly believe it." Emperor Hongzhi looked at Ouyang Zhi with a smile.

This is almost Ouyang Zhi’s biggest shortcoming.

Ouyang Zhi smiled and said, "The family teacher is not an ordinary person. I believe in the family teacher."

"What if your mentor asked you to die?" Emperor Hongzhi asked.

"What's wrong with death?" Ouyang Zhi blurted out without hesitation.

“…”

Emperor Hongzhi shook his head, he was such a stubborn person.

"Then, which one is more important, me or your teacher?"

Generally, people with such problems will be beaten in future generations.

It's probably the same problem that your mother and your wife fell into the water.

Ouyang Zhi thought for a while: "This question cannot be answered."

"Oh..." Emperor Hongzhi felt depressed again, shook his head, and began to worry about the Tatars again.

…………

Zhenguo Mansion.

In this broken yamen hall that is leaking.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were covered with bloodshots, and he had been staring at this place for three days.

Three days, there was no news in Datong.

But Zhu Houzhao had no idea whether this military operation could be successful. At this moment, he was in a state of confusion.

He was afraid...if he failed and the Tatars continued to attack Datong and Datong fell, then... the consequences would be unimaginable.

He had to look at the map again and again.

Fang Jifan was thinking openly.

He has made all his efforts.

If it fails, then... I have to find another way to find a way to eat here without thinking about food and food, and there is no point in it.

At Noon.

Hungry.

Always have to eat.

Fang Jifan and Wen Yansheng set up a table here and set up a side stove. The soup and ingredients were placed in the stove. The soup base of the soup was made of mushrooms and chicken. It was fragrant. Wen Yansheng was rinsing the slices of mutton while drinking warm rice wine. His face was red by the steaming hot steam coming out of the side stove. He dipped it in a specially prepared sauce and drank a bite of mutton slices.

Wen Yansheng actually said lightly: "The mutton slices are still a little older and not fresh enough. There are fewer ingredients, but... is the pepper that comes out of the greenhouse called pepper?"

Fang Jifan nodded with a smile: "Yes."

"It's a pity that the pepper needs to be kept for seeds. I tasted it last time. Although I was sweating all over, I felt very happy. I still savored it. If I used peppers as ingredients, this taste..."

Fang Jifan was happy: "Mr. Wen is really an interesting person. My marquis wants to eat chili peppers now. Let's wait next year, and then the Xishan Mountain will expand more than 100 acres of land and plant them all. Then we will promote it to various places. We have chili peppers every day."

Wen Yansheng said happily: "What happened next year, I will say next year, come and have a drink."

The two clinked glasses, Fang Jifan took a glass of wine, and then smiled at Wen Yansheng: "I wish our flying team a triumphant return."

Wen Yansheng nodded: "The Ming Dynasty has its own blessing, the flying team will be triumphant. I will drink three cups of warm wine first and celebrate first."

As he said that, he was not polite. After drinking three glasses of wine in a row, his face became even redder. He happily picked up a handful of potato leaves and entered the boiling soup on the side stove, smacking his lips.

"I'm thinking that the chefs in the world are nothing but mixed, and many people can't even control the amount of oil and salt. If I have a batch of sauces for cooking and divide them in advance, those bad chefs need to cook, just take a spoonful of ingredients and make not too bad dishes. Dingyuan Hou thought, what about this?"

"What? Wang Shouyi?"

"What Wang Shouyi? Order Wang Shouren, do you have brothers?" Wen Yansheng looked at Fang Jifan strangely.

"No, nothing." Fang Jifan shook his head.

Fang Jifan seemed a little guilty and was busy laughing and concealing the past.

Wen Yansheng smiled and said, "I have been in Xishan these days. It turns out that everything can be mass-produced through workshops. It is really eye-opening. So I thought that the so-called workshops are nothing but mass-produced things. They not only provide convenience to people, but also make money from the West Mountain. This money is really a good thing. When I was studying, I said that money was a piece of a dou, but it became a parent official. After living for most of my life, I realized that people who say that money is like dirt should be killed. People who advocate benevolence and righteousness to others, but do not distinguish whether people are poor or rich, noble or lowly. People are hungry. The wife and children don't even have a new piece of clothing. The family is barely all over the walls, but you still tell people that money is useless. Benevolence and righteousness are useful. These people are not only hypocritical, but also don't know what they mean."

"The court preaches education every year, but the education is not clear. It is because these guys are making trouble. It's ridiculous and lamentable."

Fang Jifan slapped the table and shaking the furnace here: "This is my heart. Yes, these damn hypocrites hate the most. Now I get Mr. Wen's good words. I will eat three slices of mutton first to encourage you."

I rolled three slices of mutton, burned it, and put it in my mouth.

This Wen Yansheng's ingredients are good.

"As for this workshop, Mr. Wen first finds a recipe suitable for both young and old, and let's try it."

Wen Yansheng was happy: "It's so good, so I'm sure I want to try it. I and the Marquis fell into the same state at first sight, such as Boya and Zhong Ziqi."

"What..." Zhu Houzhao, who was standing beside him, finally reacted when he heard Boya and Zhong Ziqi: "Why did he become Boya and Zhong Ziqi?"
