Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-Four: The King Worries About the Disgrace
Liu Jian smiled and said, "How did your mentor evaluate this matter?"
Ouyang Zhi thought for a while: "My teacher said that if he takes action, it will take ten days, not to mention half a month, three days will be enough."
“…”
This is a bit embarrassing.
Ouyang Zhi is an honest man, and he did repeat the original words of Fang Jifan.
Early every morning, Fang Jifan would call his disciples together, and then ask Xu Jing to announce the news, and then he would comment a few words.
As a mentor, it is natural to brag occasionally.
However, every time my mentor brags, it is realized. For Ouyang Zhi, what my mentor says will definitely not be false.
When Xiao Jing heard this, he was speechless. The factory guards dispatched countless manpower and material resources, and there was no way for half a month. What kind of virtue is Fang Jifan? A hundred households in the military farm dared to boast about such a whim.
The worst thing is, it’s okay if you brag. But if you brag for three days, isn’t this going to ruin someone’s job?
How did he explain to His Majesty and how would he explain to his ministers?
But in fact, I didn't catch the thief's head.
Xiao Jing didn't say much, but just smiled bitterly.
"It is understandable that the master is born with a calf and is not afraid of a tiger. However, the matter of arresting the rioters is not as simple as the master thought."
He is giving himself a step forward.
Ouyang Zhi shook his head and said firmly: "If the teacher says he can, he will definitely do it."
At this time, Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jian looked at each other. Then, Emperor Hongzhi smiled, but looked at Xiao Jing deeply and said lightly: "Okay, don't argue."
This matter will be abandoned.
Obviously, Emperor Hongzhi did not want Fang Jifan to boast about it, which caused dissatisfaction among the factory guards.
...
After coming out of the palace, Xu Jing naturally blamed Ouyang Zhi.
"Senior Brother, you really don't know what happened. Aren't you a scourge? The factory guards have tens of thousands of people, so many elites, who are specializing in arresting and inquiring, but they can't find the thief for more than half a month. If the teacher says it, let's just listen to it. You're good. When the palace says it, think about it, can people sit still? Doesn't this mean that the factory guards are all wine bags? You can't be a human being..."
Ouyang Zhi obviously felt that he had made a mistake, so he lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
When the group returned to the Fang family, they saw their mentor entertaining a very special guest. The person who came was the merchant who was a big food, and he offered a "tip" for the ten thousand years of old ginseng.
Fang Jifan was surprised that "Tip" had not left yet.
Faisal saluted Fang Jifan with a smile on his face and a tone of flattery.
"Thank you, the young master's father, for your help. The boat is indeed back. The villain is very grateful to the young master, so he prepared some small gifts. Please don't dislike him."
After staying in the Ming Dynasty for a while, his Chinese language became more standard.
Fang Jifan never expected that his father, who was in Tianjin Wei, would be so reliable. He would really "open the Internet" with a letter from him.
After that, Fang Jifan did not ask about this matter anymore, and had long forgotten it.
When he heard the tip, Fang Jifan looked at Faisal with clear eyes, and a beautiful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I am a clean and honest person. I want any gifts. Please take the gifts and I will see them."
Faisal smiled and took the gift list, and Fang Jifan took it. As expected, there was nothing interesting, all of them were ordinary "silk" and "jade".
Fang Jifan was not interested and couldn't help but beat him up: "No, it's meaningless."
There are some silvers in other countries.
He hoped that there would be another "magic weapon" similar to the ten thousand-year-old ginseng.
After thinking about it, Fang Jifan showed a noble look, and his bright eyes stared at Faisal.
"I don't like other things, but I like some flowers and plants. If there are any strange flowers and plants, it's good to bring them to my palm."
"It really is." Faisal said happily: "In addition to the thousand-year-old ginseng, there are actually some goods brought with the ship. However, these things are also available in the Ming Dynasty, so I dare not offer them, but if the young master is interested, the villain will bring them next time."
Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes and had a little interest.
"Very good, I've been bothering, now, get out."
"..." Faisal was stunned.
It’s so realistic, I was just smiling and saying that if you ask me to get out, I’ll let you get out?
Actually, he didn't know that although Fang Jifan wanted Tie to bring something rare, he was unwilling to make too many explanations with Tie. After all, this person was a Hu person. Fang Jifan was a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. For sweet potatoes, he gave you a look. Why, do you still want to make friends?
Faisal had no choice but to say goodbye in disappointment.
Fang Jifan stretched his waist and saw that it was not too early, so he couldn't help but ask Deng Jian beside him, "Ouyang Zhi, how many people are going to the palace for a banquet, haven't you come back yet?"
Deng Jian said with a smile: "Young Master, you have come back. I saw that there are guests here, so..."
"Call it." Fang Jifan was shocked.
After a moment, Ouyang Zhi and his friends came, and naturally told Fang Jifan what happened in the palace.
Xu Jing smiled bitterly and said, "Mr., are you going to give someone a message to Eunuch Xiao and Commander Mou, and apologize to them so that they will not hate their teacher..."
Ouyang Zhi also looked ashamed and hurriedly fell to the ground.
"The disciples have died, and they have caused trouble for their mentors."
Fang Jifan looked up and looked around the people. Seeing that the people were all in panic, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes and thought about it seriously.
"Apology? Why do you have to apologize? Originally, this is the matter of the factory guards. I am too lazy to interfere in my teacher and I have to farm. However, since the factory guards have been unable to do it for so long, you have missed it again. There is nothing I can do. Tomorrow... I will catch the thief."
Xu Jing was stunned, then looked at each other with Tang Yin and others, as if he was a little unbelievable.
My mentor is serious...can you catch someone?
In this world, where is such an easy thing? It doesn’t even need three days, just one day?
The five disciples all looked disbelief and shook their heads.
"But... I have to ask Wang Shouren for help. He has some skills, much better than you guys, ah..." Fang Jifan sighed: "Why are the disciples I have taken in are all useless scholars?"
“…”
Fortunately, everyone is used to it.
…………
Emperor Hongzhi had something to do.
This thought arose because of Ouyang Zhi's words.
Within three days, capture the thief...
Although Emperor Hongzhi did not continue to investigate this matter, he wanted to save Xiao Jing some face.
After all, Xiao Jing has been with him for more than 20 years. When he was in the Eastern Palace, he served him.
But the advantage of bragging is that it always leaves an indelible impression, even if you don't believe it.
It’s like when the teacher asks you when you were young and what you had wishes, there will always be a friend around you who wants to be a president, a big scientist, and a superstar.
Then, after many years, even forty years, you who are moving bricks at that time will still remember the one who has made great wishes but is also moving bricks. Then you can take out these old things and laugh at him for the rest of your life.
As long as the thief head is not removed for a day, Emperor Hongzhi will feel like a thorn in his throat. No matter how kind he is, he is the emperor after all. It is natural for the emperor to destroy the thief.
