    Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan.

    ??????????????????????Laughing at this time is really an act of seeking death.

    "Fang Qing's family, are you having a brain attack?"

    Fang Jifan originally thought that Emperor Hongzhi would ask, "Why is Fang Qing laughing?"

    But it is indeed a bit embarrassing for Emperor Hongzhi to be so direct.

    Fang Jifan shook his head: "I'm very kind."

    "Then what are you laughing at?"

    Fang Jifan thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, Qi Jingtong is indeed guilty, but I have been thinking about a question, why am I, the Ming Navy, not a match for the Japanese pirates."

    "Huh?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan.

    Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the original letter to encourage farmers?"

    "Keep talking." Although he was unhappy, Emperor Hongzhi seemed to have come to his senses.

    "Those who don't know how to farm don't understand what farming is. People who don't understand farming write letters to encourage farmers to cultivate and cultivate crops. Your Majesty, do you think this is reasonable?"

    Emperor Hongzhi nodded slowly.

    Fang Jifan added: "The current problem lies in this. Qi Jingtong is this farmer. The court wrote a letter to encourage farmers, telling him how many boats he would get, how to drill them, and when to go to war. As a result the land was damaged.  Whose fault is it?¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Ma Wensheng: "What do you mean by the Qing family, is it the fault of the Minister of War?"

    Fang Jifan shook his head: "No, Ma Wensheng, the Minister of War, does not understand naval warfare, but who put him in the position of Minister of War to guide people in farming and write letters to encourage farmers? I am an upright person, so I feel that since I have failed,  , is not terrible, what is terrible is that after the failure, the temple will shift the responsibility to a farmer. If this is the case, the court will never be able to make progress. Next time, a new farmer will be replaced, and it will be the same as before.  Or make the same mistake as Qi Jingtong. If you lose, you lose. It only costs money and food. Now that the matter has come to this, the court should reflect on where the problem lies, find out the problem, and then correct it. This is actually not  Disaster."

    It¡¯s rare to say something that makes sense.

    Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a long time, chewing Fang Jifan's words carefully. He called Fang Jifan because he felt that Fang Jifan had many evil ideas. Perhaps this person had new opinions.

    After he thought about it carefully for a long time, he finally opened his eyes and said, "Are you beating me around the bush and scolding me?"

    Fang Jifan hurriedly waved his hand: "I am wronged."

    Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s face turned red.

    Immediately, he breathed out again.

    "Actually the Qing family is right, the root of the problem lies with me!"

    From the perspective of Fang Jifan, who is standing on the height of history, or standing on the shoulders of giants, Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s peasant mentality and his indecisiveness at certain times meant that although Emperor Hongzhi was considered a good emperor, he was nothing more than mediocre.

    ¡°After all, everyone has his or her historical limitations. You can¡¯t ask a slave owner to slap his forehead and think, oh, we should free the slaves and divide the land.  Or, let a dynasty emperor who represents the world's gentry turn his head and shout loudly, "We want industry and commerce, we want industry and commerce, oh yeah!"

    If there really is such a person, even Fang Jifan would think that this person must be a second-rate person.

    Emperor Hongzhi was more like a paper poster. He was very tired and realized the problem, but he was afraid that the house would collapse, so he was always careful when papering.

    But one good thing about him is that even if Fang Jifan sometimes scolds him in a roundabout way, he won't get angry. At most, his expression will change. But after he thinks about it deeply, he accepts it silently.

    Emperor Hongzhi squinted his eyes: "The root of the problem is indeed with me! But, who in this world understands naval warfare?"

    "Someone understands!" Fang Jifan said.

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan: "Huh?"

    Fang Jifan said: "Actually, Qi Jingtong is quite knowledgeable."

    Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s face didn¡¯t look good. Emperor Hongzhi had already planned to forgive this person, but when Fang Jifan mentioned this person, Emperor Hongzhi was still a little unhappy.

    Fang Jifan continued: "There is still one person who can give it a try."

    Emperor Hongzhi cheered up.

    Fang Jifan said loudly: "I have five no, six disciples. Among the six disciples, the most important one is Tang Yin. Tang Yin has been smart since he was a child. This person understands!"

    "he?"

    Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Why do you say he understands? It's because Tang Yin is the best at learning. He may not be proficient yet, butConsider it a lifetime of idleness.

    This is fate.

    He accepted his fate.

    After the imperial envoy finished announcing his decree, he gave Qi Jingtong a strange look.

    Qi Jingtong immediately understood something, yes, it¡¯s time for daily projects.

    He took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into the envoy's hand: "Thank you for your hard work, sir."

    "What do you mean? What do you mean?" The imperial envoy would not accept it even if I beat him to death: "Who do you think I am? I am not that kind of person. Take it away, take it away."

    "" Qi Jingtong was confused. What do you mean? It's too little, but it's too much.

    He had no choice but to take out another ingot. Military attach¨¦s are like this. They must always remember to bring money and take care of it at any time. No matter which uncle they offend, he cannot bear it.

    "What are you doing? What are you doing? If you tell me you don't want it, you don't want it. I have nothing to do with my sleeves. I'm not that kind of person!" The imperial envoy still refused to obey. He protected himself with both hands and stepped back step by step: "Look, I  Just looking at this money makes me feel sick and makes me want to vomit!"

    Qi Jingtong smiled dryly: "Your Majesty, this"

    It¡¯s very embarrassing to hold two ingots of silver in my hand.

    The imperial envoy smiled bitterly and said: "I don't want it if I tell you not to. I am an official of the imperial court. I am here on official business. How can I accept money? Is this ridiculous?"

    "Your Majesty is so honorable!" Qi Jingtong looked at him with admiration.

    The envoy seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

    Then Qi Jingtong invited him to drink tea, and the two chatted for a while. The envoy was about to leave, and Qi Jingtong was busy seeing him off. The envoy probably thought that Qi Jingtong was quite steady and honest, so he had a smile on his face. Before leaving, he suddenly  He said meaningfully: "Qi Qianhu, when did youcome into Uncle Xinjian's footsteps? It's reallydisrespectful."
