Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 41 Like-minded

  Deng Jian became Fang Jifan's follower again.

   This was Fang Jinglong's order. Without the fifty thousand taels of real gold and silver, the father who finally felt that the ancestral grave was smoking was depressed again.

  A well-endowed military general actually added to the melancholy of the graceful poets. When he looked up and saw Yue'er, he sighed. Looking at the sparkling autumn waves in the pond, he had the urge to write poems and express emotions.

  Thousands of melancholy were intertwined, and Fang Jinglong returned to his gloomy look.

  The reason why Deng Jian was arranged to be on duty was because Fang Jinglong was determined to protect his last fortune. This wealth was the material basis for him to complete a bold idea, and Fang Jifan could not let it be ruined.

  So, Fang Jifan put on a kirin suit and went out early in the morning, and Deng Jian pitifully followed behind. Fang Jifan asked his family to set up a car for him, and when he drove, he trotted behind panting.

When I arrived at Zhan Shi's mansion, I saw Zhu Houzhao waiting for something. When he saw Fang Jifan coming, he was overjoyed and said, "Come on, let's play a game of chess first. I have been thinking hard all night. I am waiting for you. I will definitely kill you. Do not stay."

  When Deng Jian arrived panting, Zhu Houzhao frowned and looked at Deng Jian coldly: "Who is this person?"

  Fang Jifan said: "This is my servant."

  Zhu Houzhao probably understood that domestic servants are similar to the eunuchs around him.

  Deng Jian didn't seem to have seen any big scenes. When he saw the prince, his legs felt a little weak, and he subconsciously said: "I have seen His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness is really... really heroic."

  Zhu Houzhao said in surprise: "This sentence, I seem to have heard it before, so familiar."

"..." Fang Jifan was ashamed, and kicked Deng Jian's **** directly: "You talk too much, and I also grab my lines?" He smiled dryly and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Highness, it's not too early. I'm afraid it's too late, at Zuochunfang, Yang Shidu is still waiting for His Highness to go down to study."

  Zhu Houzhao curled his lips: "No, I asked Liu Banban to talk to Shi Yang, saying that I feel unwell again today."

   As he spoke, regardless of whether Fang Jifan agreed or not, he dragged Fang Jifan to the dormitory, set up a chess game, and gritted his teeth: "I will kill you today."

  Fang Jifan shrugged, this guy still thinks he didn't lose enough.

   So... come on.

Zhu Houzhao is a very focused person. Once he is interested in something, he starts to dig into the horns. He rests his cheeks, his eyes are bloodshot, sometimes he grits his teeth, sometimes he mutters in a low voice, sometimes laughs, sometimes frowning.

  Fang Jifan accompanies him every now and then.

  But this Zhu Houzhao is actually good at chess, which makes him have to be careful.

   I don't know how long it took, but Fang Jifan became engrossed.

There seemed to be no sound around. I heard the footsteps of a few eunuchs just now. Occasionally, Liu Jin and others would make tea, but now...the surroundings were indescribably silent. Zhu Houzhao was completely immersed in chess, but Fang Jifan always felt that, There is nothing wrong.

  He couldn't help raising his eyes, but found a ghostly figure standing behind Zhu Houzhao.

  Fang Jifan took a closer look and was stunned. It turned out to be Emperor Hongzhi.

  Just now he was concentrating on playing chess, but he ignored someone coming in.

  The question is, why did His Majesty come here?

  Who told him to come?

  Since he came, why did Liu Jin and the others make no noise?

  Fang Jifan's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly understood that this was to catch JIAN, ah, no, it was here to catch stolen goods.

But I saw Emperor Hongzhi with his hands behind his back, with a half-smile on his face, he looked very quiet, still standing tall, with a refined temperament all over his body, his eyes fell on Zhu Houzhao's fingertips, seeing Zhu Houzhao Move pieces.

   "Haha, my palace is bombed, and your commander is bombed, hey, hurry up, hurry up, it's your turn!"

  Fang Jifan was stunned, ignored Zhu Houzhao, looked at Emperor Hongzhi who was smiling, but this smile always seemed a bit pervasive, and subconsciously said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows: "You mean the father? The father is good at everything, but he is too gentle. If you look at the emperors in the past, which one has countless concubines? Look at the father, hey, I don't understand him. Jifan, you don't know, after the father saw the mother, he was docile like... like a quail, last time he wanted to beat up the palace, hehe... the mother let out a stern roar, and nothing happened."

   "..."

   "Get off, you!"

  Emperor Hongzhi squinted his eyes, pondering Zhu Houzhao's evaluation, his eyes were deep, and under the shadows, he couldn't see his joy or anger.

  Fang Jifan was already scared to pee, and hurriedly said: "I have seen Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

Zhu Houzhao smiled: "You boy, how dare you come to scare me. At this time, the emperor should be reviewing the memorials in the warm pavilion. How can I have free time..." He turned his head subconsciously, and then... the expression on his face instantly stiffened, as if frozen Fossils in amber.

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly, put his hand lightly on Zhu Houzhao's shoulder, and glanced at the speechless Fang Jifan again.

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled lightly: "I heard that the emperor is ill, so I came here to see it. It seems that the emperor is very energetic."

   "Father, son... son..." Zhu Houzhao wanted to say something.

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled again: "This place...is too narrow to display, it's not a place to talk, I'm in Minglun Hall in Zuochunfang, wait for you, oh, Fang Jifan..."

  Fang Jifan looked embarrassed: "The minister is here."

  Emperor Hongzhi said calmly, "You also want to come."

   After finishing speaking, he paced slowly and really left the bedroom.

  Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao stared wide-eyed.

  It has always been Fang Jifan who cheated others, but today, it can be regarded as a master who lost his hand and was cheated by Zhu Houzhao.

  As soon as Emperor Hongzhi left, Liu Jin came in trembling, sweating profusely like soybeans on his forehead.

   "His... Your Highness..."

  Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "It's like a dog, why didn't you report the father's arrival?"

  Liu Jin shivered and said: "My slave... when my servant saw His Majesty, before I could call out, the accompanying guards... just... drew their swords, my servant... my servant was stunned."

   It's completely over, this is a premeditated action.

   It seems that Zhu Houzhao was too complacent, and became "ill" every now and then. The servant Yang turned his head and went to sue the imperial court.

  This time... it's really over.

   "I'm sure I'm going to be beaten again this time." Zhu Houzhao shuddered.

   Nonsense, the question now is whether to kill or maim, whether you Zhu Houzhao died miserably or our Fang Jifan died worse.

  But Zhu Houzhao got up with a whoosh: "Liu Jin, go to Kunning Palace quickly. After going to see the mother, she said that my son's life is dying, help me! Also, go back and wear a thick jacket on your body."

   "His Royal Highness!" Fang Jifan shouted: "Find me some, I want to wear a jacket!"

  ………

   Minglun Hall.

  Emperor Hongzhi sat here with a blank expression on his face, and on the table next to him was a stick.

   No way, Fang Jifan didn’t bring the whip, so in the middle of the journey, Emperor Hongzhi personally picked up a few firewood branches, chose the thickest one, tried it out, and the effect was not bad.

  Today, it has been caught. Yang Qing’s family has come to the palace to sue several times. At the beginning, Emperor Hongzhi didn’t pay attention.

   Talented people come from under the stick, this is the truth taught by Fang Jifan, and now... I really believe it more and more.

  Emperor Hongzhi had mixed feelings about Jifan. Fang Jifan's father, Fang Jinglong, was born and died for the court.

In addition, Emperor Hongzhi somewhat felt that although this prodigal son was absurd, he was not lacking in shining points. Emperor Hongzhi gave him a golden belt and ordered him to come to Zhan Shifu as an official of the General Banner of the Habayashi Guard. his meaning.

After all, the civil and military officials of Zhan Shifu are all the pillars of the court reserved by the court. They will surround the crown prince and become the crown prince's team. As they grow older and more experienced, they will gradually become stable and finally become the crown prince. The minister of the humerus.

  The young man made a lot of mischief, but it was nothing. Emperor Hongzhi hoped that Fang Jifan could get rid of the absurd energy of his youth in Zhan Shifu, and gradually become a talent, with the intention of paving the way for Fang Jifan in his heart.

  But who knows...the two bedbugs have the same smell when they are together!

  If the tiger doesn’t show its power, do you think I’m a sick cat?

  In just a split second, the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi flashed a sharp edge that fell into his bag!
