Chapter seven hundred and eighty eighth: brothers meet
When he heard Fang Jifan still say something, Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian and others all looked at Fang Jifan.
Emperor Hongzhi felt heavy. To be honest, this report about clothing and armor only deepened his concerns.
But the most terrifying thing is a fire last night.
The ancients always believed in God’s warnings and believed that anything would have signs.
Look, this is a big fire, doesn’t this just show that a bad news is coming?
He was anxious inside and tried hard to hold back his inner fear.
In fact, Emperor Hongzhi's heart was already numb, he was afraid...
If you are afraid, you are afraid. If your son is not in the world, how should you face it? If so, what is the point of living yourself?
This is a feeling of despair, as if everything you work hard will eventually become a mirror and a moon.
Fang Jifan held his head up: "Your Majesty and all the dukes, do you still remember your evaluation of Your Highness the Crown Prince? Your Highness is definitely not an ordinary person. Thinking about the time when Your Majesty appointed his son as the young minister and taught Your Highness the Crown Prince. This Crown Prince is indeed an extraordinary person, an extraordinary person, and an extraordinary person, and does extraordinary things. Did Your Majesty and all the dukes here know that Your Highness, from a young age, made great ambitions, hoping to avenge the previous shame and avenge the Tumu Fort?"
"Emperor Yingzong was captured by the Hu people. Have you forgotten these previous events by Your Majesty and the Dukes?" Fang Jifan seemed a little angry.
"No, although Your Majesty and the Dukes have forgotten it, there are still people in this world who remember this shame. Your Majesty and the Dukes are hoping that the Crown Prince will learn the skills of emperors and the Four Books and Five Classics as you imagined. Do you think that the Crown Prince is playful and naughty, but have you thought that the Crown Prince dances every day for his ambition? Did you think that he will learn military skills every day, regardless of the heat and winter, never stop?"
Emperor Hongzhi was a little moved.
Liu Jian and others were a little speechless.
They felt that the Crown Prince should not be like this.
But……
What Fang Jifan said made them feel a little ashamed.
Yes, some of you are the emperor and some are important officials of the court, but... have you ever felt this shame? Do you still remember the terrible memories that were imposed on the Ming Dynasty and the ancestors?
Prince remember!
Fang Jifan's voice gradually became louder: "In the heart of the Prince, the emperor's art can be controlled, but this so-called emperor's art is vulnerable to the iron cavalry of the Tatars. He believed that the Four Books and Five Classics had some truth, but can the infinite chaos in the north be eliminated by relying on the Four Books and Five Classics?"
"No!" Fang Jifan said: "What the Prince wants to learn is the way to pacify the world. Some people always say that you must get the world immediately, but you need to get off the horse and rule the world. But today, when will there be stability? Wars and chaos every year, and Hu people invade every year. However, even if the disaster is right in front of you, people still admire those who dismount and think that those who ride on horses are shameful and should not be taken. They are reckless men. Your Majesty and the Duke never thought that what Your Majesty and the Dukes advocated was defended by this person who rides on horses."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince has never stopped learning archery and horses, nor has he stopped learning military tactics. He is really learning carefully, which comes from the heart. Your Majesty cannot see these, but we, the princes, saw it. I am not worried about Your Highness, it is fake. But I know that Your Highness has achieved success in learning a long time ago, and he knows more about the Tatars than the people in the world. His use of military tactics, the civil and military affairs of the Ming Dynasty, and countless so-called fame and reputation, and those who claim to be familiar with Ma Zheng are incomparable."
Why do you scold people?
Ma Wensheng couldn't help but look at Fang Jifan with a little dissatisfaction.
Isn’t this person who seeks fame and is known as familiar with Ma Zheng?
Fang Jifan said: "So, the prince will not have any trouble. In this world, if anyone is allowed to go to the desert, he may die without a place to bury him, but only His Royal Highness, will not! Because, if there is still someone in this world who can survive in the desert, this person must have spent his whole life to truly analyze and study the Tatars. If you understand the Tatars, the prince will definitely be unparalleled in the world!"
"Your Majesty and all the dukes are always worried about this and that. To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than looking down on me and the prince..."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...the four words are very light.
The implication is that our Fang Jifan is a well-known person after all. Since he is a young secretary, he will accompany and educate the prince. What kind of personality and ability does the crown prince have? We Fang Jifan don’t know what you mean? He looks down on others?
Although Fang Jifan was also a little worried, Fang Jifan's worries were different from those of others. He knew Zhu Houzhao's strength more than anyone else. This guy was a monster in military affairs.
You may doubt his luck, but you cannot doubt his ability and intention.
A person is not just because he is playful, but for ten years, he learns archery, horses and military tactics. This is impossible without great perseverance and great ambitions.
Emperor Hongzhi was silent.
Liu Jian and others also fell into silence.
But Ma Wensheng still sighed: "Your Highness the Crown Prince... He has great ambitions. Hey, I really have nothing to say, but... but... he is the crown prince after all, and the son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall..."
At this moment, an eunuch hurried in. He panted and scratched his head and ears in a hurry: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."
Everyone stared at the eunuch. Emperor Hongzhi was already in his heart. Listening to Fang Jifan's words, he could not reflect in his heart.
The prince...is it really the one, remembering the shame, and in order to avenge his previous shame, is this the case?
Is the so-called naughtiness really just his appearance?
"What's the matter?"
The eunuch said anxiously: "Your Majesty, there are fast horses, fast horses from Lanzhou. Outside the city, they said... His Royal Highness... His Royal Highness is back..."
The grandson... the palace... is back?
Emperor Hongzhi was shocked and his mind was already buzzing.
"He is back?" Emperor Hongzhi suddenly stood up and stared at the eunuch, fearing that the eunuch had said the wrong thing.
"You say it again!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince...he is back!" said the eunuch: "I'm afraid that this is the kung fu, I'm afraid that I've already entered the city with a horse?"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, he came back from Datong."
Liu Jian and others looked surprised.
Datong, how could it be Datong?
You must know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entered the desert from Lanzhou. Lanzhou is thousands of miles away from Datong.
Your Highness, does not mean that Your Highness, the Crown Prince, directly crossed the desert and then entered the pass together?
If so...
Everyone looked at Fang Jifan one after another.
This guy Fang Jifan...is a bit amazing!
After hearing this, Fang Jifan was already full of joy.
I felt a little sad because of my senior brother's death.
But now, this little bit of sadness for my senior brother's death has been wiped out. I have no time left. I will miss my senior brother again next time.
Fang Jifan raised his eyebrows: "Look, I just say, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, no matter what, even if he was chased by a rabbit by a Tatar, it would be enough to save his life. We will definitely not die. The Crown Prince of our Ming Dynasty is a very human being. Your Majesty, I have not taught him anything in my heart over the years. I am really ashamed of being a young secretary. I just teach him the principles of being a human being, strengthen his ambition, point out his archery and horse, and teach him some military tactics. Oh, I have to pick him up. Your Majesty, say goodbye, say goodbye, I'm leaving."
Fang Jifan whizzed and disappeared.
This is how Xiao Zhu Xiucai is. Sometimes he always pesters himself and hates him very much, but after so many days, he misses him a little strangely.
Fang Jifan walked vigorously and left the warm pavilion and knocked over a eunuch. The eunuch said yorkly and fell to the ground. Just as he was about to blurt out, a silver nail hit his head, which was sterling silver, and it was more than a dozen taels.
Fang Jifan threw down a ingot of silver and rushed, saying, "Go and buy a coffin... and go and treat the disease!"
…………
Back...back...
Emperor Hongzhi's head was buzzing.
His body trembled slightly. Looking at the location where Fang Jifan was standing just now, this kid had already disappeared without a trace.
So, he looked around and looked at Liu Jian and others.
Liu Jian and others suddenly felt relieved.
Finally... I've been trying enough.
I'm back...it's pretty good too.
very good.
His Royal Highness... After suffering outside the pass, he felt relieved. Perhaps, with this training, he would never think about avenging his shame again.
"His Majesty……"
Emperor Hongzhi had already set off and said, "Let's go... to the Meridian Gate, go to the Meridian Gate to take a look."
…………
Zhu Houzhao returned to the capital that she had been away from for a long time.
Riding on a horse, I haven't seen each other for several months. This capital city made him both strange and familiar. After leaving the gate, he felt like he had left the world. Now, when he returned here, he felt less passion and impulse, but more at ease.
He rode his horse all the way and shouted, "Call someone to go to the West Mountain and call Lao Fang to come. Our palace wants Lao Fang to see how ugly the Tatar Khan is!"
After saying that, he said, "No, it was still early at this time and it was not yet noon. He was sleeping soundly at the Princess' Mansion and asked someone to go to the Princess' Mansion to call him up."
After saying that, he was galloping on the long street like lightning. The people on the street were frightened to the ground. When they heard the rapid horse hooves, they subconsciously avoided them, so they naturally couldn't help but scold them.
It’s better to be in the desert. You can’t even let go wherever you want to run. In this capital, you can’t even let go of riding a horse.
Zhu Houzhao thought to himself, and was about to reach the Forbidden City. In front of him, he saw a person who was running faster than a rabbit, waving to him happily.
