.,

Emperor Hongzhi seemed tired, and set off to drive back to the palace.

Fang Jifan obeyed the order and had no choice but to follow.

Zhu Houzhao and others still need to clean up the mess in the school grounds.

Fang Jifan followed Shengjia for a few steps, worried, turned back and pulled Zhu Houzhao and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, I will return as soon as I go, and you must not kill indiscriminately. Although they are thieves, they are laborers anyway. Huangjinzhou is the most lacking." Yes, they are such talents, their family is old and young, and there are quite a lot of people...You take care of them, and when I come back to deal with them, they can be sent to the ship in the future, and I treat you to a good meal."

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows, sniffed his nose for nothing and said, "I will eat thirty meals."

Fang Jifan: "..."

Does this count as taking advantage of the fire?

All the ministers were frightened and wanted to go back to their residences. Some of them were still in shock. They hadn't thought about managing the treasury, the money and food of the standing army, and the problems caused by this rebellion, so they passed by one after another. Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan whispered to each other, and even if it reached their ears, they found that they didn't understand it very well.

In this world, no matter what age, human resources are precious, especially when Ming Dynasty is in the development period.

Huang Jinzhou needed a lot of manpower, and Fang Jifan had already thought about these rebels and their families before he put down the rebellion.

Afraid that these people will cause trouble in the future?

After all, it was a rebellion, an unforgivable crime, and he was sent to the Golden Continent as a slave.

Fang Jifan was not at all worried about what kind of tricks these people would play when they arrived in Huangjinzhou. If they were placed in other feudal states, the princes would really dare not take them in.

But Fang Jifan is not afraid.

The Daqi Kingdom and the Dalu Kingdom not only opened up hundreds of miles of land, but also occupied the most important positions in the Five Great Lakes. Of course, this is not important. The important thing is that because the land is fertile, it can accommodate a lot of people. In 2010, Fang Jifan persistently migrated the population, and sent a large number of craftsmen, soldiers, Confucian scholars, and criminals. Of course... what is essential is that all people with the surname Fang in the world are also sent away. The fief of the Fang family There are 370,000 to 80,000 people, of which the surname Fang accounts for more than half.

They are all a family. With them, they have become the most backbone force in the fief. These criminals are sent to be slaves, and they are broken into pieces. Who would dare to rebel?

Fang Jifan promised that he didn't need to do it himself, and that a person surnamed Fang could drown them all by spitting.

A family is a family, one ancestor comes from, blood is connected, there is no mistake.

Fang Jifan gave a few hasty instructions, seeing that Shengjia was about to go far away, and fearing that the emperor would be angry, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly chased after him.

Emperor Hongzhi returned to the palace and went directly to the Chongwen Hall. Here, it seemed quieter. Emperor Hongzhi sat down immediately, and Xiao Jing poured tea for him. Emperor Hongzhi nodded and waved his hand lightly, indicating that Xiao Jing also retreated.

Xiao Jing hesitated.

Your Majesty is very strange today, he only called Fang Jifan, but he didn't know what it meant?

Xiao Jing nodded tactfully, saluted, and left silently.

So here, apart from Emperor Hongzhi, there was only Fang Jifan, which made Fang Jifan feel very uncomfortable when he entered the palace.

Emperor Hongzhi was not in a hurry, and said calmly, "Sit."

Fang Jifan said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Said, bowed and sat down.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Prince...what do you think of Jifan?"

Regarding this question, Fang Jifan's ears were already calloused.

Fang Jifan coughed, and said very smoothly: "His Royal Highness is a man of great talent, great talent, excellent filial piety..."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly, and couldn't help saying: "What I want to hear is the truth."

Fang Jifan raised his head, looked at Emperor Hongzhi, his face was full of sincerity, and said: "Your Majesty, what His Royal Highness said... is the truth!"

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled wryly: "I know you are on good terms with him, as close as brothers."

Fang Jifan immediately shook his head: "Your Majesty, it is well known that I judge a person regardless of their closeness. For example, I dare to say that my first disciple Ouyang Zhi is an idiot, and my grandson Liu Jin is a dog." thing!"

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and finally spoke again: "Do you think... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be a good emperor in the future?"

His Majesty suddenly asked this question, which made Fang Jifan's heart skip a beat. He seemed to have heard some overtones, so he suddenly raised his head and glanced at Emperor Hongzhi. Whether to be happy or worried.

He took a deep breath and said calmly: "That depends on how the emperor is defined. The emperor is good or bad, and for future generations, it is constantly changing."

"Oh?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan, and he seemed to think that Fang Jifan would always say something surprising.

"Let's talk about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." Fang Jifan paused and said: "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty beat the Huns hard, promoted famous generals like Wei Huo, and drove them like controlling eagles. From this, the Han army fought Gaolan and plowed the court. As a result, the prosperity of China's frontiers weakened the barbarians and the emperors, and foreign ministers from all over the world trembled when they heard the name of Hanwu. But...is the evaluation of Emperor Hanwu the same? I have read some histories and learned some poems. But it was discovered that if the Central Plains were in peace, the people lived and worked in peace, so the Confucians belittled Han Wu, saying

He is arrogant, extravagant and tyrannical, not to mention that he is tired of the middle land and serves as a soldier on the other side. There is no time to give, people are bored. People see him as an abusive tyrant. But for the descendants of later generations, in troubled times, the barbarians began to invade the frontiers, the world began to be uneasy, and the four directions began to be uneasy. From the achievements of Han Wu, it is said that he mastered heroes, controlled heroes, shocked the barbarians, and expanded the territory! "

"Your Majesty, look, the same Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the same deeds, and the same descendants of later generations, when talking about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, they either gritted their teeth, or admired him so much, so dare to ask, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, is he holy or not? ?”

Emperor Hongzhi was silent. He pursed his lips and frowned slightly, as if he was seriously thinking about Fang Jifan's words.

"People are cheap." Fang Jifan said: "They are all forgetful. When they were in peace, they felt that people like Emperor Wu of the Han hindered them. At that time, I began to think about emperors like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty again. Whether the emperor is wise or not, people later have their own evaluation. As for what they say is good or bad, why should the people of the world be scrupulous? My son is thinking, Your Majesty may want to The question is whether the crown prince is suitable to inherit the great rule. If His Majesty asks this question, the minister’s answer is very simple. In today’s world, it is time to seek innovation and change. There is no turning back when there is no turning back. Death. His Royal Highness advocated new studies and implemented new policies. The achievements are obvious to all. He built a new army, punished traitors, and deterred the barbarians. This is also well known. He personally promoted science and made all industries flourish. Is it not enough to prove the ability of His Majesty the Crown Prince? His Majesty the Crown Prince has already grown up. He has his own thoughts and ideas, maybe... the world he wants to create is different from the world His Majesty thinks about, but what does it matter? ? As long as the common people can live and work in peace and contentment, and as long as the borders are not disturbed, then...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, will be a qualified emperor in the future."

"My son begged to use the whole family to guarantee that His Royal Highness, if he succeeds to the throne, will be foolproof."

Listening to Fang Jifan's words, Emperor Hongzhi fell into thought again.

As Fang Jifan said, what his son was thinking... even Emperor Hongzhi couldn't understand.

In Emperor Hongzhi's mind, the appearance of the prince appeared, and he couldn't help but feel warm. He may have thought of that well-behaved child, or that young man who gradually became rebellious, or that young man who always had amazing words...

"He is my flesh and blood. I should know him best, but in fact..." Emperor Hongzhi shook his head and said, "I am not as good as you."

Fang Jifan said modestly: "Your Majesty, I am very ashamed. In fact, I don't know much, and often I can't keep up with Your Highness's rhythm."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "You are the one I can trust the most. Since you dare to use your whole family as a guarantee, then... I can rest assured."

Fang Jifan was taken aback, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, this... this is just a metaphor, it may not be able to be counted, my son... my son means... oh... my son..."

This topic is giving me a headache...Fang Jifan tried hard to hold his head...

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Okay, don't hug your brain anymore, I don't know if your brain hurts?"

Fang Jifan looked ashamed: "Your Majesty is a sage, you really see through the details, and you can see through my son's intentions at a glance. My son's trivial skills are like the light of a firefly in front of His Majesty, who is a master, competing with the bright moon. , I have absolutely no intention of competing for glory, Your Majesty is the light of the sun and the moon, my son... my son threw himself on the ground, and was completely convinced."

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head and sipped his tea. He was already used to such words. Emperor Hongzhi waited for Fang Jifan to finish his nagging before he said, "Jifan, it seems... if the crown prince ascends the throne, I can sit back and relax, right?"

This sentence was spoken calmly, but extremely seriously.

So much so that Fang Jifan couldn't help being distracted, and looked at Emperor Hongzhi in surprise: "Your Majesty...your body..."

Emperor Hongzhi shook his head: "There is no major problem with my body, but... I am old and have lost energy. This rebellion has left me with lingering fears. ...how can you not notice this? So... I...want to pass on the crown prince...to make the crown prince the emperor, what do you think?"
