Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 12 The little ancestor is uneasy again

Emperor Hongzhi ordered people to distribute dozens of papers submitted by the Qinjun Mansion, and there were several papers on his desk. Zhu Houzhao heard that it was a theory, and it was a theory about things in the southwest of Pingxi. He seemed to be interested, so he He looked at his father pitifully.

  It's a pity that Emperor Hongzhi didn't pay attention to him, and he took the first article on the desk wholeheartedly, and only read it briefly. After a long time, he said lightly: "Yes, you can also read it."

   As he spoke, he handed it to a little **** beside him, and the little **** passed the article on.

Liu Jian lowered his head and looked at it for a while, and he knew what his Majesty said was good, but it was just "good". He also said that he was ugly and Yinmao.

  Of course... For the disciples of Xungui, there is really nothing picky about being able to answer like this.

  Then Emperor Hongzhi read several articles in a row, occasionally nodding his head, but sometimes, he would add a comment lightly: "This article is not bad."

  He smiled self-deprecatingly. Although he said it was acceptable, his brows began to frown slightly, and deep in his eyes, he looked disappointed.

Immediately, he smiled wryly subconsciously, and then realized that he was confused. These days, he has been thinking about the Southwest issue day and night. He is an emperor with a strong sense of responsibility. Anxious in my heart, I can't think of it because I think about it day and night, and in desperation, I pin my hopes on a group of young men.

  Thinking of this, Emperor Hongzhi smiled, knowing that he had gone too far, so he didn't give any hope.

  Emperor Hongzhi said: "After reading so many articles, you must be exhausted. Please leave."

Liu Jian and the others got up one after another and saluted. They have long been not interested in the articles of these meritorious children. In their opinion, many people are not even as good as children. As a result, he quietly withdrew from the Nuan Pavilion.

  Emperor Hongzhi was also a little tired. He waved his hand and wanted to push the last article aside and let the eunuchs pack it up, but with a glance, a line of words came into view suddenly—reform the soil and return to the people!

This word was unheard of and unseen, and he suddenly became interested, so he slowly picked up the article, his eyes narrowed slightly, and where the bloodshot eyes caught, he saw that the article was divided into three parts. Policies are 'use the barbarians to control the barbarians', 'tweet grace', and 'reform the land and return it to the stream'.

Tweeting decree is the best understanding. The problem in the Southwest is that the natives are unwilling to naturalize. Therefore, the imperial court set up a prefecture and enshrined many hereditary chieftains in the Southwest. The emperor of the land, many rebellions were either caused by the chieftain's squeezing too hard, or the chieftain took the lead.

  If the method of Tweeting En is used, the strength of these hereditary chieftains can indeed be weakened, so that they dare not make mistakes.

In fact, it is not new to use barbarians to control barbarians. As early as Emperor Yingzong's time, there was the concept of using barbarians to control barbarians. The imperial court gathered Zhuang people and Tujia people from Xiangxi and other places, transferred them to Guangxi, and ordered them to pacify the local Tujia people. The so-called rewards are the land and food of the rebel tribe. Therefore, these people are called "wolf soldiers". The wolf soldiers naturally fought bravely to get the land and food, and they were not The local aborigines, even if they got the land and were able to farm, they had to guard against other aborigines. Therefore, most of them were loyal to the imperial court and knew that only by uniting with the local officers and soldiers could they guarantee their habitat.

...

  So many articles are explaining how to suppress the rebellion, how to enter the army, and how to appease, but none of them hit the nail on the head.

  But this article, just relying on the four characters of reforming the land and returning to the stream, seems to have awakened Emperor Hongzhi at once.

  This article is a blurred name. Emperor Hongzhi tore up the blurred name excitedly, and a name came into view—Fang Jifan...

  This name does give me some impression... This person seems to be... seems to be...

   All of a sudden, Emperor Hongzhi's face became a little unnatural. He put the article aside, and became calm again: "Pour tea."

  There was already a young **** waiting outside. Hearing the call, he tiptoed in, bowed his body, and served a pair of hot tea.

   This person is the little **** who kidnapped Fang Jifan last time. Don't look at him triumphant outside the palace, pretending to be a tiger, but in front of Emperor Hongzhi, he is like a castrated quail.

  The little **** bowed his body and said very respectfully: "Your Majesty, please have some tea."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, took the teacup, and took a sip. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhu Houzhao was still kneeling and sitting on one side, but now his thoughts were all on the word "reform the soil and return to the stream", so he said curiously: " Fang Jifan...have you heard of this person?"

The little **** has been serving Emperor Hongzhi all the time. These days, he has heard about Fang Jifan three times from His Majesty. When it was time for the review, Emperor Hongzhi seemed to feel pity for Nan Hebo. After thinking about it, since Nan Hebo couldn't teach his son, he should also tie this unworthy son of the Fang family to participate in the review. Throw this fellow into any corner of the pro-military guard at will, and find a ruthless person to teach him; the first two times he didn't have a good impression, but this time he brought it up for some reason.

  But thinking about it, Your Majesty must hate this person deeply...

   This little **** is called Liu Qian, and he has hated Fang Jifan for a long time, but he is an extremely cautious person, but he will not rashly speak ill of Nan He and his uncle.

   And now... here's my chance.

The little **** hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that this is the dandy who sold his ancestral property. The servants outside the palace also heard a lot of gossip, saying that he is ignorant, an **** all day long, and even... He is slandering the emperor, he is so arrogant that no one takes it seriously, he often says heaven... even if the king of heaven comes to him, he will..." Liu Qian said this, and did not continue to say it sensibly go down.

  This sentence is extremely vicious. Who is the Heavenly King and Laozi, isn’t he the emperor?

  Anyone who offends His Majesty's Ni Lin will die without a place to die in just one thought.

  At this time, the little **** continued: "Naturally, this is what I heard from slaves... Hehe..."

   This is to leave a way out for myself. After all, the other party is Nan He and uncle's father and son, so they can't talk to death.

But in the end, he seemed to want to prove it, and said: "I also heard that this little ancestor was uneasy again in the past two days. Selling it at ten times the market price, Your Majesty, isn’t this bullying the good people?”

  Even though Emperor Hongzhi did not dare to say that he loved the people like a son, he could still be called a virtuous emperor. When he heard that he was bullying the people, his face immediately showed disgust.

Zhu Houzhao knelt aside, seeing his father like this, he was secretly delighted. It turned out that it was Fang Jifan again, who was so brave, and dared to be tougher than the prince. ", this account has not been settled by this guy yet, well, now that I have provoked the fury of my father, even the king of heaven and I can't save him.

"There is such a thing?" Emperor Hongzhi said angrily: "It's really unreasonable! I dare not plunder the people's wealth lightly, where did he have the courage? He is an unworthy son. I have heard about it before. I would be lenient, but now that he has gotten worse, can I still tolerate it? This matter should be thoroughly investigated!"

   After the words fell, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly thought of something again, and looked at Liu Qian: "Where is he selling ebony?"

   "Dong... Dongshi..." Liu Qian was overjoyed, Fang Jifan, it's over!

  Hey, how dare you be rude to us!

  ...

   Adorable tigers please collect and recommend! And thank you for your concern for the tiger's body, the tiger will pay more attention!
