    Seeing everyone coming out of the school, Xiao Jing looked around and couldn't help but whisper to Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, it's getting late"

    This is the place where he feels sad. He doesn¡¯t want to stay for a moment. Fang Jifan really slapped him in the face here, and it was a loud slap in the face.

    This made Xiao Jing feel very uncomfortable, because he really wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

    Emperor Hongzhi frowned and stared not far away in a thoughtful state, completely ignoring Xiao Jing. After a while, he looked back and waved to Fang Jifan.

    "Fang Jifan, come here!"

    Fang Jifan was just about to rush over. Li Chaowen is such a sycophant. He is really annoying and prevents me from flattering him.

    So he trotted up to Emperor Hongzhi, grinning and about to speak.

    Emperor Hongzhi was the first to ask: "How many refugees have been attracted to Xishan?"

    Fang Jifan suppressed the smile on his lips and spoke truthfully to Emperor Hongzhi.

    "More than 3,600 households."

    "It's quite a lot." Emperor Hongzhi nodded. It was just a mine, with more than 3,000 households, which was equivalent to the population of a guard's military household.

    "However, the population is less than 5,000. Your Majesty, you must know that although the refugees will bring their families, butmost of them are alone, and the population of each household is not large." Fang Jifan explained patiently  .

    Emperor Hongzhi nodded, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the entire Xishan Mountain, and looked at the hardworking miners in the distance. The miners were busy under the sun and were not affected.

    Seeing such a busy scene, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh.

    "Yes, who would want to be a refugee unless they were forced into a desperate situation? It's the same as why Wang San would become a beggar if he wasn't in a desperate situation. Wang San, what do you think I should do with him?"

    "There will be no prosecution!" Fang Jifan replied resolutely.

    Xiao Jing, who was behind Emperor Hongzhi, couldn't help but admire Fang Jifan's boldness. No matter what, Wang San was guilty of a crime that would lead to death. How could you let Fang Jifan let him go?

    ¡°You are so young, you don¡¯t think carefully about what you do or say.

    However, Emperor Hongzhi was not angry. Instead, he looked deeply at Fang Jifan and asked in confusion: "Why?"

    Fang Jifan thought carefully before speaking slowly.

    "I am thinking, what if I was in his situation, without enough food to eat, unable to wear warm clothes, and being oppressed by the government, and had no choice but to join a beggar gang. The leader of the beggar gang was ambitious and wanted to plot big things, so I followed him.  It is inevitable that the leader of the Beggar Clan committed a serious crime of treason. Just as Wang San said, it is natural for the minister to be loyal, because the Fang family has been blessed by the country, and just as Eunuch Xiao and Commander Mou are loyal to His Majesty  The same is true, but when any of us is in his situation, we should ask ourselves, can we still be loyal to the court and His Majesty?"

    ""

    ¡°This¡­ is too courageous.

    Mou Bin and Xiao Jing said in unison: "I (servant) swear to be loyal to Your Majesty to the death. No matter what the situation, my desire to repay will never change."

    "They wish they could spit this guy Fang Jifan to death. You just likened yourself to a rebellious party, but you dragged us into the water."

    Emperor Hongzhi ignored the words of Xiao Jing and Mou Bin, but frowned, stared at Fang Jifan, and smiled bitterly: "It seems that if it were that time, even you would think that I am a foolish emperor."

    Fang Jifan was busy shaking his head.

    "No, if I were Wang San, I would have no way of knowing whether your majesty is a saint or a fool. I only know that the officials are sent by your majesty. If they love the people, I will feel that your majesty is a good emperor. But if they harm the people, I will not come here."  , To Wang San and others, His Majesty is a tyrant. This is why I want a few disciples to come and teach them a lesson. I don¡¯t want them to ruin His Majesty and my reputation.  "

    "" Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said noncommittally: "This statement makes sense. A teacher should teach his disciples how to be a good person; a monarch should govern the world, so shouldn't he also have some restraints on his ministers? Otherwise, he will let them go.  When they harm the people, they are harming themselves. As for this Wang San"

    When he said this, he paused, then raised his eyes, looked around again, and pointed to the place where the green smoke curled up: "That village is the miners' settlement, right? I saw it, it is very filthy."

    Fang Jifan complained in his heart, why does the emperor not eat minced meat? Do you think that everywhere is the Forbidden City and everywhere is the inner city of Beijing?

    Fang Jifan chuckled: "I have been with Wang Jin for a long time.He said she was sixty years old, and Fang Jifan believed it.

    The old woman paused for a moment, as if she had confirmed the identities of Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan. Immediately, her tears could not be restrained, and they fell down. She fell to the ground tremblingly and choked with sobs: "Greetings to our two benefactors, two benefactors."  My benevolent father-in-law will be waiting for all generations"

    This kneeling

    Emperor Hongzhi, who was standing by and watching with cold eyes, was heartbroken!

    He looked at this scene with dumbfounded eyes, his face full of disbelief.

    "In fact, before Fang Jifan stepped forward to help the old woman, Zhu Houzhao was one step ahead of Fang Jifan. "Old Fang, you have already been in the limelight. It is not easy for someone to recognize this benefactor of this palace. You can go and cool off."

    Zhu Houzhao's eyes were red with excitement, and his face was like a 'peach blossom'. He stepped forward, helped the old woman, and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, this this little favor from me is nothing, and it should not be treated like this."  Big gift, old man, you have such a good memory."

    This is a heartfelt compliment. Those ungrateful dogs have had their consciences eaten by dogs. They only remember Fang Jifan but not me. None of them can match a finger of this old woman.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
