Fang Jifan¡¯s words were completely from the bottom of his heart.
Despite his usual crazy appearance, he still understands things, and he is never ambiguous when it comes to business matters.
He doesn¡¯t look down on anyone in the world, but the premise of all this is that Emperor Hongzhi must be well coaxed.
"To be honest, if His Majesty didn't take half of the benefits, his successor would not dare to go ahead and do it.
" But now that it's better, and with support, it's a huge deal, and Fang Jifan dares to do it.
Emperor Hongzhi saw Fang Jifan looking delighted. The joy came from his heart, and he nodded secretly in his heart.
Look at the successor, he is so simple and sincere, I share his profits, he can be as happy as the Chinese New Year.
"I also think about the many people who entered the dynasty and became officials, but I don't know how many of them have left good stories in these ten miles of Qinhuai, with silks and satins, thousands of gold to buy smiles, and clouds of servants. In the Chongwen Palace, they love to talk about luxury and simplicity, and they talk about competing with the people for profit. Now I understand that it is these people who compete with the people for profit.
They use the most demanding eyes to test others, but they treat themselves with a different standard.
Although Emperor Hongzhi felt pleased, he couldn't help but look at Fang Jifan and said: "In this Xiaoling Mausoleum, Jifan has no other insights except economic methods?"
Fang Jifan¡¯s face twitched involuntarily. Well, he really didn¡¯t think of anything else. He only knew that someone wanted to commit suicide and thought that he might have an opportunity to make a fortune.
The wealthy households in Jiangnan have deeper financial resourcesand therefore have a stronger ability to withstand the economic crisis.
This is why the land and properties of landlords and wealthy people in the north almost fall into the hands of banks, while not much land in the south of the Yangtze River falls into the hands of banks.
But nowisn't it a great time?
In times of peace and prosperity, people are happy to hold land, because land is the foundation. But once chaos occurs, this land becomes a burden and burden.
When Fang Jifan saw Emperor Hongzhi looking at him kindly, he naturally would not disappoint Emperor Hongzhi, so he replied without hesitation: "Your Majesty, when I came to Xiaoling, I thought of Emperor Taizu Gao, Emperor Taizu Gao." It was difficult to start a business, commoners rose up, martial arts were established, Wu settled the chaos, and literature brought peace. I think he made such great achievements for thousands of years, expelled the Tartars, restored the mountains and rivers, and is now buried here. Although it has been a hundred and fifty years, he can still be kind to him. My descendants, sons and ministers are filled with emotion."
Emperor Hongzhi's eyes showed interest and he couldn't help but said: "What are your feelings?"
Fang Jifan said with a sincere face: "It is said that the virtue of a gentleman can only be killed in five generations. From Emperor Taizu Gao to the present, it has been six generations to your Majesty. Your Majesty supported Taizu Gao Emperor Yu Lie and implemented the New Deal. His thoughts are the same as those of Emperor Taizu Gao. The thoughts of Taizu and Emperor Gao in governing the world are very similar. Isn¡¯t what he did to establish order, create a peaceful world, and benevolent to his descendants?¡±
"However, the reason why Your Majesty came to Xiaoling Mausoleum today is becausethe thieves have evil intentions and dare to kill Your Majesty. In the past 150 years, the emperors of successive dynasties have treated the gentry preferentially and exempted them from taxes. He also tried his best to promote them to become officials in the court. I think that when Emperor Taizu Gao set these rules for treating scholars preferentially, he hoped that they could be used by the court to help the court stabilize the country and benefit the people. After His Majesty ascended the throne, The situation is better than before. But what is the result? As a result, from Emperor Taizu Gao to the present, the lives of the people have not improved. They are still abject poverty everywhere. Countless people have lost their land and become refugees. When encountering disaster years, it is still the same. As in the past, families were ruined and their children and daughters were sold. The children and ministers even heard rumors of cannibalism. Your Majesty Starting from Emperor Taizu and Emperor Gao, not only did the situation of the people not improve, but it became even worse. ¡±
When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he was silent and seemed to be thinking about something.
Fang Jifan added: "So in the south of the Yangtze River, ordinary people have lost their land and are vying to enter the Zhumen, changing their names in the hope of selling them into slavery. But more people want to cling to the Zhumen but can't. I want to be a slave and have someone to rely on, but I have nothing to gain. Your Majesty has visited the people privately, so you know the hardships of the people's livelihood. I am thinking, if I, the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, knew that the wealth in the world has been stolen by others , but the grievances of the people in the world are gathered in the imperial court and your Majesty, so I dare to ask, what do they imagine if they have spirits in heaven? "
Fang Jifan looked at Emperor Hongzhi's slightly frowning expression and continued: "Your Majesty, the original intention of re-employing scholars is to bring peace to the world. To bring peace to the world, the common people have enough food and clothing. In this world, there is a lot of land for people." If there are a few, there will be more refugees, and the resentment of the people will naturally increase. The original intention of treating them preferentially has not been realized until now, but has made the situation worse and worse.There is no need to delay. His Majesty only treated them harshly for a moment, and they acted unscrupulously without any scruples. First, they wanted to assassinate their ministers, and then they actually wanted to kill the imperial envoys. They even tried to falsely accuse the Duke of Wei and force him to rebel against him. Such crimes , there are too many bamboos to write. My son, I have been feeling very uncomfortable in Xiaoling these days"
Fang Jifan tried his best to make a sad expression, but he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes and the good mood that he was about to acquire land on a large scale.
At this time, Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes: "If you were me, what would you do?"
Fang Jifan quickly shook his head: "I don't dare, I don't dare. How dare I be Your Majesty? What's more, I don't dare to guess His Majesty's thoughts. But if I dare to guess, If Emperor Taizu Gao were still alive, he would never allow these rebellious officials and traitors to cause harm to the world, and they must be killed."
Fang Jifan finally showed his anger.
¡°Perhaps it¡¯s because I came to this world and saw a lot of dangers in the world, but deep down in my heart, I still can¡¯t get rid of the violent spirit of the prodigal son before.
Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s face became heavy, he paused, and he said calmly: ¡°I understand.¡±
Emperor Hongzhi said again: "I had a dream yesterday. I dreamed of Emperor Taizu Gao. He said some words to me, which coincided with what you said."
Fang Jifan: ""
Fang Jifan felt that Emperor Hongzhi was fooling him.
Did Emperor Taizu Gao really know how to tell dreams? This is impossible. If I could dream, I would be the first one to be hacked to death in this Xiaoling Mausoleum. Wouldn¡¯t it be our successor?
¡°Uh, why does it seem like His Majesty is using the dream to do something?
Emperor Hongzhi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and turned to say: "I have ordered the British Duke Zhang Ying to urgently mobilize people and horses to come here quickly in the name of paying homage to Xiaoling Mausoleum. Soon we will arrive"
"Your Majesty is wise," Fang Jifan said with a smile.
¡¡¡¡
Two more days have passed.
"At the foot of the Purple Mountain, there are people.
Emperor Hongzhi was puzzled and ordered Xiaoling Guards to go down and pick him up.
The person who came was Cao Yuan, the censor of Zuo Fudu.
??The Zuo Fudu Censor is stationed in Nanjing. He is the head of the Nanjing Censor and is responsible for supervising the officials in Nanjing. Because he has the power of impeachment, almost no one dares to offend him in this half of the Yangtze River.
When Fang Jifan heard that Cao Yuan had arrived, he felt interesting.
He really has some impression of this person.
??Cao Yuan, in history, colluded with Liu Jin after Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne. Because he was recommended by Liu Jin, he later became the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion. He was a very popular minister.
Of course, this person also had the experience of governor of Gansu. When he was governor of Gansu, because Zhu Houzhao loved tigers and leopards, he sent eunuchs to look for tigers and leopards outside the pass. At that time, there were Tatars outside the pass, and Cao Yuan was afraid because of this , and the relationship with the Tatars deteriorated, causing border conflicts, so he wrote a letter to stop it.
¡°Of courseto this day, Emperor Hongzhi is still there and Zhu Houzhao has not yet ascended the throne. Cao Yuan has naturally changed his life trajectory.
Panting, he led the officials up the mountain.
Emperor Hongzhi was still dressed in cloth, sitting in the side hall, waiting for Cao Yuan to lead the officials.
As soon as they met, everyone looked at each other. Cao Yuan in front of Emperor Hongzhi was a kind-faced old man. He hurriedly greeted Emperor Hongzhi: "The imperial envoy was frightened. Everyone in Nanjing was shocked. They never expected that the traitor would actually come." He is so audacious and harbors evil intentions. I, as the censor of Zuo Fudu, have already issued a note and ordered a strict investigation. I hope your envoy is fine."
He looked at Emperor Hongzhi with concern, as if he was worried about Emperor Hongzhi.
Now that Zhang Mao¡¯s army has not arrived, there is no distinction between enemy and friend in Nanjing city, but Emperor Hongzhi is happy to continue to be his imperial envoy.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Mr. Cao is overly worried. There is no danger this time, and there is no serious problem."
When Cao Yuan saw that Emperor Hongzhi did not salute him, he started to murmur in his heart.
Logically speaking, the person in front of me is of course an imperial envoy, so I must salute first. However, after all, the imperial envoy only has the status of Hanlin, and I am the censor of Zuo Fudu, with a high position. At this time, the other party should salute me. .
But the other party just sat still, which was rude.
But if you think about it carefully, this imperial envoy must have been frightened. He is just a Hanlin who has never seen the world. Now, after suffering such a crime, he has no master, which is understandable.
So Cao Yuan smiled and said: "It's good if nothing happens, it's good if nothing happens. I don't like to see such a big thing happen. Now that I can see the imperial envoy without any problems, I feel relieved."
So he sat down and someone poured tea. Cao Yuan stared at Emperor Hongzhi and said, "May I ask the envoy if you have found any clues? Otherwise why would you cause such a fatal disaster?"
Emperor Hongzhi only said: "Everything happened suddenly. I still feel frightened when I think about it. As for what I found I can't say anything."
"Yes, yes." Cao Yuan laughed heartily again. He was very magnanimous, gentle and polite: "Of course, after all, it involves an imperial case. The imperial envoy appointed by the imperial court to come to Jinling must be an imperial envoy. It¡¯s because of his shrewdness and hard work. ButI have something to say, but I don¡¯t know whether to say it or not.¡±
