The warm room was very quiet for a moment.

Fang Jifan looked up at Emperor Hongzhi, and then looked at Zhu Houzhao. At this moment, he was very considerate of Zhu Houzhao.

On that night in the West Mountain, Zhu Houzhao was so excited. She was full of energy and her whole body was filled with light.

But now Zhu Houzhao is like a defeated rooster. How many evil did this guy do and how many people he ruined in his previous life to get retribution in this life.

Fang Jifan sympathized with Zhu Houzhao very much. If it were him, he would have felt uncomfortable at this moment.

Therefore, he spoke very seriously.

"I can guarantee my personality. This is indeed what His Highness the Crown Prince thinks. Your Majesty is wise and wise. Are you too harsh on His Highness? Your Majesty, your Highness's intelligence is beyond the reach of ordinary people, but why does Your Majesty turn a blind eye?"

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao's tears were about to fall, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, looking at Fang Jifan excitedly.

Lao Fang, you are really my confidant. These words really touched my heart.

Emperor Hongzhi's face was plain, and he glanced at Zhu Houzhao from the corner of his eyes, probably looking disgusted as if he looked down on this guy.

I'm afraid of comparing everything.

Fang Jifan's words were really sad when he heard Emperor Hongzhi's sadness. Look at the father and son of the Fang family, who turned the tide and made great contributions to the world.

Another thing is that he is also a civil and military strategy in Beijing. He saw that Qian Yue would be defeated at the beginning. Now, he guessed that the battle situation in Guizhou might be reversed. This father and son of the Fang family are really amazing.

But Fang Jifan actually wanted to give the credit to the prince, and this child... he had feelings and righteousness to the prince, and this time he could be reasonable and justified, defended the prince, and tried his best to say good things to the prince.

Oh……

It would be better if he didn't make a statement. The more he made a statement, Emperor Hongzhi compared Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao in his heart, but found that the prince who thought was pretty good was really unbearable to be a son. Look at this little beast, other people's contributions can be shamelessly taken on him. It's useless. If he couldn't study, he would not even have virtue. Does the prince need to take credit for it?

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh: "If you have a son, you should give birth to Fang Jifan..."

"..." Zhu Houzhao blinked, not understanding, and looked surprised, what?

Liu Jian and others also sat aside. The complaints of Your Majesty, the Crown Prince and Fang Jifan were answered. They saw clearly, and as bystanders, they couldn't help but sigh.

His Royal Highness... It's indeed a bit past. Fang Jifan is a talented person, and some people can be regarded as pillars.

Zhu Houzhao's mouth moved slightly, and he opened his mouth to say something, but Emperor Hongzhi obviously no longer wanted to bother about this matter, because he felt that as a father, Fang Jifan's words had left him the last little respect. What's the use of continuing to scold the prince?

Anyway, this guy who doesn’t get enough food for money will never change his mind. He is a little beast, a little beast.

But Fang Jifan saw something, something was wrong. Fang Jifan was a moral person. He should be the prince, or the prince's. How could he take the prince's credit?

This is immoral.

So he spoke again.

"Your Majesty, I think..."

Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan and pressed his hand towards him.

"You don't have to say anything more. Your father made great contributions. If he hadn't turned the tide, Guizhou would have become what it would be like? The so-called "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger's son? I, the Ming Dynasty, have such a loyal minister and good general, so why worry about the unfairness of the world!"

It seems... Emperor Hongzhi is no longer interested in continuing this topic.

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao and saw that he was wronged and looked sad. Fang Jifan couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he could only help you get here.

Your Highness, please do it yourself.

"Not bad!" Ma Wensheng was still holding the report. After reading it twice, he couldn't help but dance: "If it weren't for Nan He Bo, I'm afraid that what the imperial court received now would be the biggest bad news since Tumu Fort. Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, the entire Guizhou province, would fall into the hands of thieves. Nan He Bo personally took on arrows and stones and made such unparalleled achievements, and the world was attracted by the attention of the world. This is the result of Your Majesty's wise eyes and savvy eyes."

"Your Majesty is very clear, and I am amazed." Liu Jianren and others couldn't help but dance and followed suit.

Yes, it was His Majesty's decision to let Fang Jinglong go to Guizhou at that time. Now I realized that if the general was not Fang Jinglong, Guizhou would be completely finished.

This shows how wise Your Majesty is.

Of course, such boasting is actually understandable. Your Majesty is the emperor. After all, they are good for physical and mental health.

Emperor Hongzhi was overjoyed. It was not because of this slight gaze, but because a big rock in his heart settled down. He looked around everyone and spoke.

"There have been good news these days. First, it was sweet potatoes and this great victory in Guizhou. This is not my wise, it is my blessing, it is my father and son of the Fang family who share my worries, and it is also the result of the efforts of the soldiers...'

He paused: "If you have merit, you will be rewarded; if you have mistakes, you will be punished."

When he said that, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but look at Zhu Houzhao coldly.

Then he said: "Nan and Bo made such a contribution. Such military achievements cannot be ignored. The Ministry of War must immediately formulate a charter and not let the hearts of the soldiers be disgusted."

Ma Wensheng nodded. The Ministry of War has its own old rules on rewards on merits, so he doesn't have to worry about it, but... he calmed down: "Nan Hebo has made great contributions this time, so I think it's better to ask His Majesty to judge Nan Hebo's reward."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "Fang Jifan."

"I am here." Fang Jifan felt happy and replied with a smile: "What are your instructions?"

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Fang Jifan deeply: "According to you, how should your father reward such a merit?"

Fang Jifan felt that there was something tricky. You ask me what I was doing. I am my father’s son. I have to be humble. I’m sorry to say that I’m too old and I’m too young to say that my family is suffering...

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan with a smile, as if he was taking the exam to teach Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan thought about it seriously and said, "I think that the crown prince is the crown prince and the minister is the minister. In this case, Your Majesty must take the exam for teaching, and he should also take the exam for teaching the crown prince."

“…”

Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment.

Then he looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao felt cold and she had been making trouble for a long time, but she became a bad guy.

Unexpectedly, Fang Jifan's words suddenly gave him a glimmer of hope.

He looked at Lao Fang with gratitude, tears flashing in his eyes.

In this world, only Lao Fang understands this palace best.

"Then, the prince...you talk." Emperor Hongzhi had a stern face.

Zhu Houzhao cheered up and saw Fang Jifan wink at him, as if he was encouraged, and he also wanted to wash away the insults and cheer for himself.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but take a deep breath: "Father, it depends on what precedent is followed. If it were the old system of Emperor Gao of Taizu, the adopted son of Emperor Gao of Taizu, Mu Ying, led his army to Yunnan, and for his merits, he was granted the Duke of Qian by Xiping Hou, so that he could not succeed him. Therefore, today's Nanhe Bo's contribution to pacifying Guizhou is no less than that of Mu Ying's town in Yunnan, and he should be given a higher title."

"In addition, many people made great contributions during the rebellion of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Wen, so the titles were widely granted. Since Emperor Yingzong, the court had few conquered and rebelled at the outside world. The so-called rebels were mostly thieves, like the Milu Rebellion, which shocked the court and the country. It was because of this that Nan and Bo's contributions were rare."

Zhu Houzhao actually started to speak very well.

This time, Emperor Hongzhi was a bit suffocating.

In any case, Fang Jifan could not have secretly vented the prince in advance even if he rewarded merits.

Emperor Hongzhi thought that this guy's answer was either just a casual nonsense or a concise celebrating or something. Unexpectedly, Zhu Houzhao began to talk about it in a long way.

"You keep talking!"

Emperor Hongzhi remained silent.

Zhu Houzhao was sad and angry, but continued to say.

"But since it is a reward, we must not just follow the old system. There is a message in the military strategy, which is called "the power of war and the shape of water". Although Guizhou is victorious now, Guizhou has initially decided that the court has killed so many natives in the process of suppressing the rebellion. Although the natives were suppressed, they must not be convinced..."

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes changed. At this moment, he began to sit upright and listened very seriously.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Father, this is a deep hatred for blood. Moreover, in the court, since the land has been changed and the matter has been leaked, the chieftains of Yunnan and Guizhou must have a more unjust heart. Therefore, although Milu is peaceful, people are still dissatisfied. The chieftains of Yunnan and Guizhou must be dissatisfied. At this point, the only thing the court can do is to use this huge victory to force the transformation of the land to return to the land."

"But since we plan to force the implementation, there are many conflicts inside and outside Guizhou, and the Han and Tu have reached an irreconcilable state. Then... there must be a person who fears the natives. Those who are unwilling and dissatisfied in Guizhou will not dare to act rashly. This person must be able to stop the natives from crying at night, and make the natives hate him to the core, but tremble. Father, at present... the only candidate is Nan He Bo."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded repeatedly.

Even Liu Jian and others, including the Minister of War Ma Wensheng, seemed to have touched their thoughts.

The prince’s words make sense.

Reward is second, and the real thing is to solve the subsequent problems. Otherwise, even if the rebellion is quelled, a new rebellion will be brewing and there will never be an end.

The outstanding thing about the prince is that he did not start from the reward, but began to analyze the situation after the entire Guizhou rebellion was quelled. When... when... was the prince so outstanding?

Everyone began to take it seriously, wanting to know what the prince had to know next.
