Fang Jifan felt like he was shooting himself in the foot with a stone.

Well, I want to take this photo of Zhu Hou to death.

However, the Empress Dowager was very happy and excited. He asked Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan to accompany him and asked Silang about the background of his mother. Fang Jifan said it together. The Empress Dowager couldn't help but exclaim: "The Yang family is a loyal and martyr, but it's the same as your Fang family."

"..." Fang Jifan's face was a little dark, and their Yang family was almost dead... Although Fang Jifan knew and valued heroes, he admired this hero, but it did not mean that he wanted to be the tragic hero.

Emperor Hongzhi was happy to see the Empress Dowager, and it was rare to see her so happy. He only smiled and felt excited. He obediently took the ministers to the front hall.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was happy, Fang Jifan couldn't help but say, "Empress, Sun Chen built a palace outside the city. You... know, it's called Daming Palace. Your Majesty is so happy. This palace is magnificent. Of course, it's nothing. Sun Chen knows that the Empress doesn't like to enjoy it. However, that place is the most suitable for self-cultivation. The Empress occasionally feels discomfort. When the palace is repaired, Sun Chen will take the Empress there to cultivate himself."

At this moment, his fox tail was exposed.

Fang Jifan had been half-hiding Zhu Houzhao in this matter before, but Zhu Houzhao felt increasingly that there must be some conspiracy behind this.

The Empress Dowager thought to herself, look at Fang Jifan, how filial he is. This time, he was probably worried about running around. Besides, this palace is said to have not spent a tael of silver in the palace, and it is all due to the Fang family. Such a loyal minister and such a good child cannot find the lanterns, so he agreed: "Okay, the Ai family must go."

Fang Jifan felt at ease and couldn't help but cheer.

Taking advantage of Fang Jifan's visit to Xiaojie, Fang Jifan came back, but was stopped by Zhu Houzhao in a secluded place. Fang Jifan said, "Why is your highness not there?"

Zhu Houzhao pulled Fang Jifan to the corner of the wall and whispered: "To be honest, what are your ideas about this Daming Palace?"

Fang Jifan looked depressed: "I am the son-in-law and my son-in-law. I only have Your Majesty in my heart, even if I spend all my family's wealth..."

Zhu Houzhao grinned her teeth: "Don't say this, you encouraged your great-grandmother to go. What's your intention? Don't you say it? Okay, I will definitely ask my great-grandmother to go, let's take a look..."

Fang Jifan had no choice but to sigh: "God is really jealous of talent. Your Highness actually doubts my intentions. Well, I want the Empress Dowager to live there, mainly for filial piety. I hope the Empress Dowager can live in his old age."

"Of course, there is a little selfishness. I hope that after the Empress Dowager goes there, you think, the Empress Dowager is old. If he can stay in the Daming Palace, our Majesty, the Crown Prince, your father, your Highness, think about it, can he rest assured?"

Zhu Houzhao looked up at the sky and thought for a while: "I think my father must be worried."

Fang Jifan slapped his thigh: "It's not just uneasy. Your Majesty, who is filial, is afraid he can't wish to go to the Empress Dowager early in the morning every day, but think about it, this Forbidden City is dozens of miles away from the Daming Palace, and one round trip, the day will be almost gone. What should I do?"

Zhu Houzhao tilted her head: "Yes, what should I do?"

Fang Jifan laughed: "Of course, your majesty has to live in the Daming Palace."

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao nodded: "It makes sense, it makes sense."

Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes: "Your Majesty has moved in, can Queen Zhang not go? Queen Zhang has gone, who will be waiting for the 12th Inner Palace?"

Zhu Houzhao said in surprise: "So many people are going?"

Fang Jifan laughed and said, "Don't worry, look, so many eunuchs and female officials have gone, they have to do things, right? For example, the Shengong Prison, should you go out to buy, and there are Shangyi Prison and Shangbao Prison..."

Zhu Houzhao nodded with a chicken pecking at the rice: "I understand, understand, and say the key point."

Fang Jifan smiled and said, "The eunuchs in the palace like to buy property. They are rich. Except for my grandson Liu Jin, he is a decent person. He only wants to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, treating money like dirt. The rest, hehe, are afraid that their hands and feet are not clean. Of course, this is second. What should the eunuchs come to the cabinet? What should I do with the Sixth Ministry and what should I do with the Hanlin Academy?"

Zhu Houzhao tilted her head: "Yes, what should I do?"

Fang Jifan felt that Zhu Houzhao was very excited elsewhere, but in this matter, he was like a second-hand man. Fang Jifan sighed: "Your Majesty wants to summon ministers from the cabinet and the six ministries at any time, and he also needs to summon the scholars of the Hanlin Academy to talk at any time. Think about it, which of them is not a seventy-eighty person, not a sore waist or a poor kidney? As soon as His Majesty summons, can Liu Gong immediately walk dozens of miles and come here? What else can he do to do this?"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up: "I probably understand."

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "You don't need to understand. At that time, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, the Secretary of the Ministry of Education, and the Hanlin people in the Qing Dynasty will have to be on duty outside the Daming Palace, but what should they do when they go home?"

Zhu Houzhao pinched her fingers: "Yes, they don't have to sleep after such a long journey."

Fang Jifan crossed his hands and laughed: "They need to have a house to live in, right? Besides, the Grand Secretary and the Ministry have all come, other ministers, chief officials, doctors, and ministers, and thousands of civil and military ministers in the capital. There are still ranks, and there are many, rich people, but no ones... Now, do you understand?"

"I understand." Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "I will build a house for them?"

Fang Jifan smiled and shook his head: "But where does this place come from?"

Zhu Houzhao laughed and said, "Haha, haha, I finally understand. Go buy land, buy land, buy all the land around the imperial city, haha..."

Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes: "This place... has already been surnamed Fang. Do you understand the third ring of the Ming Palace? Forget it, don't explain it, that is, I have prepared this place long ago. Think about it, there are so many corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty, and they have embraced so much money, but so much money, if they don't spend it, they are committing a crime. I've been thinking about it and can't sleep..."

Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan with anger.

Fang Jifan patted Zhu Houzhao's shoulder: "Okay, I'll give you another reminder. The land outside the Third Ring Road is only a few dozen taels of silver per acre. Where is the Prince's Highness? These lands will sooner or later rise. Think about it, the land in the inner city of the capital is of course valuable, but the land in the outer city is also valuable."

Zhu Houzhao nodded repeatedly, and the blue veins were about to burst out: "Lao Fang, I don't admire you anything else, but when it comes to such unethical activities, I will only accept you."

Fang Jifan looked up: "Your Highness, don't destroy my innocence."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly became excited and couldn't sit still, just like a clutch of his heart.

Land and land...

I have to buy it, how much you buy it, what is the Three Ring Road?

He still doesn't understand very much.

Of course, the Three Rings are indeed extremely valuable.

Because in this era, there were no tall buildings and the land carried a limited population, the city spread out like a pancake, and it was often large in scale, but the population may be less than one-tenth of that in later generations.

I was so happy that the Empress Dowager was so happy that the Emperor Daming Palace had to satisfy the Empress Dowager no matter what.

Seeing that it was getting late, Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao said goodbye and left and arrived at Fengtian Hall. At this time, Emperor Hongzhi was still here and gave feasts to all officials.

At this time, the banquet was almost over. Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao wanted to leave, but were stopped by the eunuch: "Your Highness, Prince Fang, Your Majesty has already issued an oral order. If the Prince and Fang Zheng came out of the Empress Dowager, they would go to see the emperor."

Zhu Houzhao was helpless and glanced at Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan said righteously: "I am open and honest, what are you afraid of? Let's go and see you!"

Fengtian Hall is one of the three main halls, and it is only used on very special occasions. This main hall is very spacious, with hundreds of officials sitting on several tables. Some have already drunkenly, and people respectfully send the Empress Dowager to live a long life, and praise His Majesty for his wiseness. Some have begun to recite poems and essays, while others have red faces and look dumb.

Emperor Hongzhi was about to let Ouyang Zhi write poems too.

Ouyang Zhize stood with a confused look on his face, and was confused at the urging of the ministers.

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao came in, which just happened to save Ouyang Zhi.

The two of them stepped forward: "Long live my emperor after seeing my father."

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be in a particularly good mood, and today he was rarely drinking, and he looked red-faced and said, "Hahaha, I have a son who defeated the Tatars and beheaded the thief chief. Whose son can compare with my son?"

He was drunk, and at this moment, he looked around with a little bit of heroism and arrogance, and the ministers were silent, looking at His Majesty.

Emperor Hongzhi slapped the desk: "I have a son-in-law. How many great things he has done to benefit the country and the people? This is nothing. My son-in-law is naturally an amazing hero. I don't say it normally, why?"

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao blinked, why?

The ministers remained silent.

But when Emperor Hongzhi was full of energy, he said happily: "I am afraid that you will all compete to avoid embarrassing all the ministers. I have this son and son-in-law. Who can compare with me in this king of the world?"

Very arrogant.

Zhu Houzhao whispered: "My father is drunk."

"Yes." Fang Jifan was very sure.

"Hahahaha...hahahaha..." Emperor Hongzhi laughed: "You guys, go jealous, go jealous, I... I don't care. I won't talk about this ability. I just say my son-in-law, come on, Fang Jifan, come on..."

Fang Jifan had no choice but to step forward.

Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan drunkenly and suddenly shouted: "My son-in-law, he built a palace for me. My family, tell me, is there any son-in-law who built a house for Taishan's father-in-law?"
