Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 51 Famous Jingshi

  Emperor Hongzhi, who hurried into the bedroom, was already shocked, and there was an unusual light in his eyes.

  …

  Early the next morning, Deng Jian brought bad news to Fang Jifan.

  The British Duke is here.

  Deng Jian repeatedly urged Fang Jifan to go to the front hall, but Fang Jifan was a little reluctant to go. This Zhang Shibo was staring at him, and he always felt that he regarded himself as a sandbag and wanted to beat him up whenever he had the opportunity.

  But after urging him several times, Fang Jifan had no choice but to dress thickly, and reluctantly rushed to the front hall.

At this time, in the front hall, the British Duke sat down angrily, took a sip of tea, saw Fang Jinglong's depressed face, opened his eyes, and then took a note, angrily said: "I'm so angry, Shou Marquis Ning and Uncle Jianchang, these two bastards! Last night, these two guys sent someone to send invitations, saying that they sold a piece of wasteland and made a fortune, and invited everyone to drink. This large piece of wasteland, in exchange for you Eighty thousand taels of silver for Fang's family? Hey, let me tell you what to say, what's the use of wanting wasteland like Xishan? Is your Jifan crazy?"

  Fang Jinglong's face was flushed red, he hesitated to speak, and finally said: "No matter what you say, at least a piece of land has been changed. Although it is a bit barren, but..."

"Fart!" Zhang Mao had a bad temper, and interrupted Fang Jinglong very rudely: "Old Fang, you don't know, the news of Zhang Heling, a pair of **** brothers, has already spread in the Xishan land, let alone Reclamation, what to plant and what not to live, even if it is used as a cemetery, if there is no wind, no water, this land is worthless. They wanted to sell it before, but no one bought it. Now it is fine, Jifan stinks Boy, you actually took the initiative to come to the door, this..."

  Fang Jinglong's expression was a bit unnatural, he knew about this, but there was nothing he could do, the money was earned by Ji Fan, even if he didn't earn it, shouldn't his son spend his own money? If you don't give him flowers, who will you spend them with?

Zhang Mao still couldn't let go of his hatred, and was still cursing in his mouth: "It's no wonder these two **** are so happy that they don't know their surnames, and their tails are up to the sky. They said it was a banquet for guests, and they said it was a feast of eighty tables, bah ... These two stinky and shameless things are really shameless! They have placed wine thirteen times this year. Last time, they said that the family dog ​​gave birth to a litter of puppies, and they said that the dog, they treated Just like his own son, the dog gave birth to a cub, just like they had a grandson, so happy, so they spread invitations everywhere and called people to eat wine."

"What do you think is the reason? It's not the gift money that these two stinky and shameless things want to accept! Last time, the old man spent a hundred taels of silver on this trip. When it came to the banquet, Zhang Heling, that damned You thief, say you don’t want to drink alcohol, it hurts your health, why not drink plain water, there are only a few dishes on the table, one is pickled radish, the other is cabbage, it’s finally a bit meaty, and it’s only as big as a grain of sand, and you can’t even pick it up with chopsticks Stop. I vomit blood when I think about it. If this is the case, it’s fine. Guess what happened later? After eating the wine and collecting the money, these two guys slaughtered the old dog that was treated as a son and stewed it in boiling water , the two brothers hid in the mansion and gnawed for three days and three nights, and there were not even a few bones left, really shameless, smelly and shameless!"

  Fang Jinglong's face turned green when he heard that Marquis Shouning and Bo Jianchang were celebrating for winning the Fang family's land, and suddenly felt that he couldn't hold his head up.

The British public Zhang Mao gave Fang Jinglong a sympathetic look: "So this time, he invited the old man to go, but the old man didn't go, not because he was reluctant to give money, but because his NIANG took such a big advantage of your Fang's family, and he was so generous. Let me tell you. This old man and you are old brothers. Not to mention we have known each other since we were young. When we were in the army, we also had troubles together. So I tore up the invitation on the spot and asked someone to report it to me. Go away, others are afraid that his Zhang family will have a queen, I will be a stinky stone in this latrine, and will never deal with them."

  Fang Jinglong sighed faintly and said: "The dog has no shape, ashamed, ashamed."

The topic suddenly turned to 'dogs'. Zhang Wei leaned over and looked straight at Fang Jinglong: "To be honest, if this goes on, Lao Fang, you should make preparations early, and give it to your family as soon as possible." Fang Jifan should find a wife, anyone is welcome, hurry up."

   "What... what does this mean..." Fang Jinglong was stunned for a moment: "Actually... there is no need to be in such a hurry."

   "Hurry up." Zhang Mao said decisively: "Don't have any wishful thinking."

  Fang Jinglong blushed: "Jifan is also the first in the review, and won the gold belt..."

"It's useless." Zhang Mao waved his hand: "Don't even think about it. Your family's successor family's reputation is not good. Now, the Marquis of Shouning and Uncle Jianchang took advantage of your family and put wine everywhere. In front of others, Fang Jifan of your family is a super fool. Now in Beijing, I don’t know how many people are making jokes behind his back. Think about it, if you don’t find a marriage quickly, you will be unable to find it even if you are holding a lantern .”

  Fang Jinglong was a little suspicious: "No way, he is working in Zhan Shifu now, and his future is bright."

Zhang Mao felt that Fang Jinglong was not enlightened, so he said sharply: "Don't you understand? Old Fang, old Fang, you are so confused. Who is the current emperor? He is the most benevolent and honest! A notorious, notorious, The whole capital is laughing at the person. But he sold himself to others to count the money, will His Majesty still be promoted? Not to mention that he won the gold belt, he won the first prize, so what? If he is promoted, the imperial court will not be ashamed. Do you want it? In the eyes of the whole world, wouldn’t His Majesty become incompetent and blind? Otherwise, how could you promote such a fool? You still think that he has a bright future, believe it or not, within a few days, Once a decree comes down, Jifan will have to be arranged by the palace to be the right guard of Yongqing, and let him guard the ancestral tomb."

  Fang Jinglong was struck by lightning after hearing what Zhang Mao said.

He didn't want to understand many things before, but now after hearing Zhang Mao's analysis, he immediately understood, yes, everyone in the Zhang family knew about it, if they didn't know it in the palace, it would be fine, if they knew, they would be afraid if they had a golden belt It's useless, if you don't kick the right guard of Yongqing to guard the mausoleum of Emperor Taizu Gao, it is considered that the ancestors have accumulated virtue, and there is no future.

Thinking of this, Fang Jinglong felt sad from his heart, and wailed in his mouth: "What kind of evil did you do..." As he spoke, he slapped himself **** the face with a crisp sound, and said, "It's all my fault. , blame me, I have no way to teach my son..."

After slapping himself several times in a row, Fang Jinglong's face turned red, and Zhang Mao quickly stopped him: "Don't, Lao Fang, why did you wrong yourself like this? It's not your fault, it's Ji Fan's fault. What's wrong with this bastard? I haven't come yet, knowing that the old man is coming to the house, won't he come to see me?"

   In fact, Fang Jifan had arrived long ago, and only eavesdropped at the door, not daring to go in. It is said that the British male was very good at riding and archery when he was young, and he was also good at **** and kicking. Didn’t he die in the past?

  But at this time, Zhang Mao yelled loudly shaking the rubble: "This boy who has no manners, where does he live, and the old man personally brought him up without breaking his legs. It's really hard to get angry."

   "Uh..." This is a bit embarrassing.

  Fang Jifan didn't dare to hesitate any longer, he hurriedly came out from the side of the door, and said: "Come here, come here, I have met Shibo, hello Shibo."

  As soon as Zhang Mao saw Fang Jifan, he became angry and said sharply: "It's just in time, come here."

  Fang Jifan smiled and said: "No, Zhang Shibo, I'm sick, brain disease..."

"Brain disease, you **** who hates ghosts!" After all, Zhang Mao is the Duke of the state, and he has a certain majesty: "You don't cause trouble, and people will watch your Fang family's jokes behind your back, so that your father can't carry it." When you first meet people, do you feel itchy all over? If the old man doesn't beat you for your illness, you won't get better."

  Fang Jifan said in astonishment: "Where is my nephew making people laugh?"

Zhang Mao bared his teeth, annoyed, and said angrily: "You still have the nerve to say that now the whole capital is making fun of you behind your back, and you still dare to quibble. The old man will teach you how to be a man today, lest you become a street mouse in this capital and throw you away." Father's face!"

   As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves.

  …

   Sadness comes from the heart, but there is no one to support, and the heartache is so painful that I can't breathe.
