Chapter 659: Pengcheng Miles
But Emperor Hongzhi didn't care about Fang Jifan's "sarcastic".
This is inspiration in itself.
It is rare to have such a promising son-in-law, and he will be able to survive for the rest of his life?
Emperor Hongzhi is not stupid.
In recent years, his horizons have become broader and he has become more and more aware that reducing expenses is a dead end, and only by finding ways to open up sources is the principle of maintaining the world.
To open up the source, the civil and military officials in the court would save money. They all had the ability to find silver from the cracks of the stones, but they all died.
Of course, Emperor Hongzhi felt quite guilty when he made this decision. No matter what, this was his son-in-law. Seeing that all the nobles teased Fang Jifan, he was inevitably a little disappointed.
So Emperor Hongzhi's tone became much gentler: "Jifan, you have worked hard and made great contributions, so I naturally know that now Xiurong is pregnant, and I, a father, am happy. If I say reward you, I will reward you. This right is just a dowry. If you really have the ability to take the desert land, you will be the one who releases horses or cultivates them in the future. You have worked hard these days, so let's take a break."
What he said was sincere, but it made it difficult for all the ministers to make fun of.
Fang Jifan had no choice but to say, "Since Your Majesty said this, what else can I say to you? The elders dare not refuse. My son has to accept it."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded with relief: "Yeah..."
As he was speaking, the Minister of Rites Zhang Sheng remembered something and said, "Your Majesty, the commander of the capital is here today. I have something to report."
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Zhang Sheng: "What's the matter with your family?"
Zhang Sheng said: "Your Majesty, Jiaozhi Ti’s scholar Chen Wangzu submitted another impeachment..."
Emperor Hongzhi seemed unhappy: "I didn't say that Jiaozhi's education is of great importance. I ordered the Chief Envoy of the Tixue and the Deputy Envoy of the Tixue, hoping that they could unite and work together, but what's wrong now? Although Chen Wangzu was opening up, he should manage his education at the moment. I didn't let him be the censor."
Fang Jifan understood as soon as he heard this, that Chen Wangzu and Wang Shouren must have disagreements in their ideas. These two, one is a world-famous scholar and the other is a leader of new students. The more such people are, they are all people with high self-esteem. Their ideas are disagreements, and they can tolerate each other, which is strange.
Chen Wangzu was the official envoy, so he was very dissatisfied with the deputy envoy himself. However, Wang Shouren was in Champa, so he came to sue the emperor.
Fang Jifan immediately said, "Your Majesty, I can testify that my disciple Wang Shouren has always been honest and loyal, just like me, and has no dispute with the world. But what does this Chen Wangzu mean? He makes things difficult for Wang Bo'an everywhere. Wang Bo'an is bullied by him everywhere. What is he doing?"
Fang Jifan's angry look was almost equivalent to scolding Chen Wangzu as a turtle grandson.
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "That's all right. Although I don't like Chen Wangzu, you said that your disciple is an honest person, but I don't agree with it. Come and take the memorial for Jifan to read."
What seven memorials?
After a moment, an eunuch took the memorial and handed it over to Fang Jifan. When Fang Jifan saw it, his eyes were straightened.
It's Wang Shouren's.
Wang Shouren almost caught Chen Wangzu and cursed. Looking at his hot temper, he simply regarded Chen Wangzu as a scum in the world. His tone was so sharp that even Fang Jifan's face turned red.
Well……
It's a bit embarrassing.
It seems... that guy Wang Boan is indeed... has a little bad temper.
Of course, Fang Jifan is understandable.
Who is Wang Shouren? His father is the top scholar. He has been valued by countless people since he was a child. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has been thinking about military tactics every day, but his father asked him to take the exam for fame. Without saying a word, he went from scholar to juren all the way. Then he went straight to a high school scholar and his status on the list is not low, which has beaten all the students all over the world. Moreover, you are trying your best to take advantage of your strength, but they only use one little finger.
Who else can he be convinced by such a person besides Fang Jifan?
Originally, Chen Wangzu would have just not provoked him, but now he still dared to provoke trouble. Wang Bo'an was not a vegetarian, and he chased and scolded him. He did not say a memorial a day, but also made a sensation. He analyzed Chen Wangzu's so-called education in Shenglong and made fierce criticisms, believing that Chen Wangzu's body was a simple place and was a disaster, and was called a great scholar, but he was incompetent.
Fang Jifan couldn't help but dance: "Good scolding, this old dog..."
The faces of the monarch and his subjects immediately pulled down.
Fang Jifan realized that he seemed to have lost his words and simply said, "Your Majesty, Chen Wangzu is a crime that is unforgivable. Your Majesty ordered him to go to Jiaozhi to educate the people. What is he doing? Jiaozhi is the same as the two capitals and thirteen provinces in the mainland? He is still using the help of Jiaozhi scholars to learn the Four Books and Five Classics. It is a pedantic and corrupt scholar! I suggest that Chen Wangzu be recalled immediately to discuss the crime, otherwise Jiaozhi will be greatly harmed by such traitors."
“…”
The mentality of protecting a calf is too obvious.
In fact, Fang Jifan did not agree with people like Chen Wangzu. Such people are so arrogant that they can accomplish things. His tricks have no practical significance except for righteous missionary education.
Therefore, Fang Jifan agreed with Wang Shouren and the master and apprentice, and it coincided with each other.
But in the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi and others, Fang Jifan seemed a little stingy.
Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "Chen Wangzu is not guilty. You are too serious. Jiaozhi is frozen three feet long, but it is still cold for a day and I can't come. Let them teach them well in Jiaozhi. However, if you impeach me and I impeach you, it's not a solution. I will order people to go and make a reprimand."
Fang Jifan said with great sincerity: "Why should I scold Wang Bo'an?"
"Ahem..." Zhang Sheng couldn't help it.
Fang Jifan, are you the Minister of Rites or I am the Minister of Rites: "The Chief of the Ministry of Rites is eager to protect his calf, but you can understand it. However, Chief of the Ministry of Rites, these two people attacked each other. Your Majesty's move is just right. I am the Minister of Rites. I think that Your Majesty is wise and this move is very appropriate. As for this way of education, I have some experience in commanding the Ministry of Rites for seven years, and I agree with Chen Wangzu very much. Chen Wangzu seems to be following the steps, but it is the most secure. Jiaozhi has decided that what I need most is such a mature and polite person."
The implication is that I don’t agree with Wang Shouren.
Fang Jifan sneered.
Zhang Sheng seemed to feel that his words were too targeted, so he said again: "Of course, Wang Shouren is also working hard and making great contributions... Haha... Haha..."
Haha, you damn.
……………………
Fang Jifan came back from the palace.
Jiang Chen and Deng Jian have already put on their clothes.
They were preparing to go to Baiyin, the Baiyin city, now it should be called "Jinglu Guard". Of course, the Jinglu Guard has been deposed and its land is housed by the Tatars. In other words, Jiang Chen and Deng Jian are about to arrive in the border town from the capital, then leave the pass, arrive in Lanzhou, and then come out of Lanzhou, cross the Tatars' sphere of influence, arrive at the former site of the Jinglu Guard, and explore the ore veins in the nearby mountains.
With the help of Fang Jifan, Jiang Chen had given him a new position, mainly with the help of Shen Wen, the Lanzhou Inspector, who would go to Lanzhou as an inspector, but in fact, he was exploring the ore veins.
In addition to Jiang Chen and Deng Jian, there were dozens of people who followed, including several disciples of Fang Jifan and some miners who worked in the mine. The dozens of people gathered into a horse team and galloped all the way to find the treasures in the deep mountains of the northwest.
Deng Jian had cried into tears. He was the first time he left the capital. This time, not only had to leave the capital, but also traveled thousands of miles to travel through the Tatars' settlement. Although Fang Jifan repeatedly promised that winter came, the Tatars rarely appeared in the former Jingluwei site, but this... was still a life-and-death task.
He only knew how to serve the young master in his life, and he would not do anything else. Now the young master asked him to go to the place where birds do not lay eggs. I think he despised himself and hoped that he would go to the ends of the world.
Jiang Chen did not cry. He was full of expectations for this itinerary.
As Fang Jifan's disciple, the pressure is too great.
He made great contributions to his fellow disciples, and only he taught at Xishan Academy and was on duty at Hanlin Academy. However... he knew very well that even if he had achieved something, he was extremely outstanding and enviable to countless peers, but... he was a shame to his mentor for Fang Jifan's disciples.
Deep in his heart, he hoped to achieve something at all times, even when facing numerous dangers, he would do whatever he wanted, because... the feeling of being shameless is really bad, and sometimes he really wished he could die.
He stared at his mentor deeply, bowed and bowed, and then shook the long sword and the arrow on his back, and turned over the horse. Following Junior Brother Wang Shouren, even if he taught his disciples to study, he still needed to learn archery and horses and swordsmanship. This is the rule of Xishan Academy. In order to catch up with others and not fall behind, Jiang Chen almost danced with a rooster, regardless of wind and rain.
He held the reins in his hand, and his heroic posture was erect, and others were on the horse one after another.
Only Deng Jian cried and turned around three times in one step: "Young master, you must take good care of your health."
"Yes, yes, there are many people around you taking care of you." Fang Jifan waved at him.
This sentence hurt Deng Jian, and he burst into tears again: "Young Master, you have to think of me occasionally..."
"Yes, you know, you will definitely do it. Your name is Xiao Deng Deng, what a easy to remember."
Deng Jian turned over and said, "Young Master, I've decided. If I die, remember to burn my wife to me at my grave, seven of them. I have to buy Dongcheng Shoumei Store. The wife of Wang Er's family is the best and the materials are also solid."
"Get out!" Fang Jifan wanted to go up and beat this guy to death.
