Fang Jifan had the feeling that he had hit his feet with a stone.

Well, I want to take a photo of Zhu Hou.

However, the Empress Dowager was very happy and full of interest, so she asked Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan to accompany her, and asked about the background of Shilang's visit to his mother, Fang Jifan said it together, and the Empress Dowager couldn't help but admire: "This Yang family is full of loyal martyrs, but it is the same as your Fang family." ”

"......" Fang Jifan's face was a little dark, their Yang family was almost dead...... Although Fang Ji knows heroes and values heroes, and admires this hero, it does not mean that he wants to be that tragic hero.

Emperor Hongzhi was happy to see the Empress Dowager, and it was rare to see her so happy, so he only smiled, his heart was hot, and he obediently took the ministers to the front hall.

Seeing that the empress dowager was happy, Fang Jifan couldn't help but say: "Niangniang, Sun Chen has built a palace outside the city, you ...... You know, it's called Daming Palace, Your Majesty is very happy, this palace is magnificent, of course, it's nothing, Sun Chen knows, Niangniang doesn't like to enjoy, it's just that place, the most suitable for self-cultivation, Niangniang's body occasionally feels unwell, and when the palace is repaired, Sun Chen and others take Niangniang to go there to cultivate. ”

All of a sudden, his fox tail was exposed.

Fang Jifan had been half-concealing Zhu Houzhao in this matter before, but Zhu Houzhao felt more and more that there must be some conspiracy behind this.

The Empress Dowager thought to herself, look at the people Fang Jifan, how filial piety he has, this time, he ran before and after, I am afraid that he will bother a lot, not to mention, this palace, it is said that there is not a single or two silver in the palace, it is all the strength of the Fang family, such a loyal minister, such a good child, the lantern can not be found, so he promised: "Okay, the mourning family must go." ”

Fang Jifan's heart settled down, and he couldn't help but cheer.

Taking advantage of Fang Jifan's visit to Xiaojie, Fang Jifan came back, but in a secluded place, he was stopped by Zhu Houzhao, Fang Jifan said: "Why is His Highness not at Niangniang." ”

Zhu Houzhao pulled Fang Jifan to the corner of the wall and said in a low voice: "To be honest, this Daming Palace, what are your ideas?" ”

Fang Jifan looked depressed: "I am a concubine, I am Your Majesty's son-in-law, I only have Your Majesty in my heart, even if I scatter all my family wealth......"

Zhu Houzhao bared his teeth: "Don't say this, you instigated your great-grandmother to go, what are your intentions, don't you say it?" Okay, the palace will not be able to ask the great-grandmother to go, you can take a look......"

Fang Jifan had no choice but to sigh: "It's really a jealous talent, Your Highness actually suspects my intentions." Well, I want the Empress Dowager to live there, mainly for filial piety, and I hope that the Empress Dowager can live for the rest of her life. ”

"Of course, there is a little bit of selfishness, that is, I hope that after the Empress Dowager goes there, you think, the Empress Dowager is old, if she can stay in Daming Palace, our Majesty, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Your father, Your Highness, think about it, can he rest assured?"

Zhu Houzhao looked up at the sky and thought for a while: "This palace thinks that my father must not be at ease. ”

Fang Jifan slapped his thigh: "Don't worry, Your Majesty is a filial person, I'm afraid I can't wait to go to the Empress Dowager every morning, but think about it, this Forbidden City is far from Daming Palace." Dozens of miles, a round trip, this day is almost gone, what to do? ”

Zhu Houzhao tilted his head: "Yes, what should I do?" ”

Fang Jifan smiled: "Of course, Your Majesty, you also have to go to Daming Palace to live." ”

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao nodded: "It makes sense, it makes sense." ”

Fang Jifan squinted: "Your Majesty has moved in, can Empress Zhang not go?" Empress Zhang went, who are the twelve eunuchs in the inner palace waiting for? ”

Zhu Houzhao was surprised: "So many people are going?" ”

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Don't worry, you see, so many eunuchs and female officials have gone, they have to do something, right, for example, the Divine Palace Supervisor, do you want to go out to buy, and Shangyi Supervisor, Shangbao Supervisor......"

Zhu Houzhao nodded with the chick pecking rice: "Understood, understood, to the point." ”

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "The eunuchs in the palace, they like to buy property, they have money, except for my grandson Liu Jin, he is a decent person, he only thinks about serving His Royal Highness the Prince, and treats money as dung, and the rest of the people, hehe, I am afraid that their hands and feet are not clean." Of course, this is secondary, this eunuch is coming, what will the cabinet do? What about the six departments, what about the Hanlin Academy? ”

Zhu Houzhao tilted his head: "Yes, what should I do?" ”

Fang Jifan felt that Zhu Houzhao was very excited in other places, but in this matter, he was like a second goods, Fang Jifan sighed: "Your Majesty needs to summon the ministers of the cabinet and the six ministries at any time, and you also need to summon the scholars of the Hanlin Academy at any time to speak, think about it, which of them is not seventy or eighty, not with back pain, not with bad kidneys?" As soon as His Majesty summoned, Liu Gong could immediately walk dozens of miles and rush here? This time and again, what kind of business is he doing? ”

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up: "I probably understand." ”

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "You don't need to understand, when the time comes, this cabinet scholar, as well as the various scholars, and the Qinggui Hanlin, will all have to be on duty outside the Daming Palace, but what should they do when they go home?" ”

Zhu Houzhao pinched his fingers: "Yes, it's so far, they don't have to sleep when they go back and forth." ”

Fang Jifan crossed his hands and laughed: "They have to have a house to live in, right?" What's more, the scholars and the ministry are here, and other waiters, directors, langzhong, and outsiders, up and down in this capital, there are thousands of ministers of civil and military affairs, and there are still grades, and there are many, there are rich oil and water, but there are those who have no grades...... Now, you get the idea, right? ”

"Yes." Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "This palace will build a house for them?" ”

Fang Jifan smiled and shook his head: "But where does this land come from?" ”

Zhu Houzhao snorted and laughed: "Haha, haha, I finally understand, go buy land, go buy land, go buy all the land around the imperial city, haha......"

Fang Jifan squinted: "This place ...... has long been surnamed Fang, within the third ring of Daming Palace, do you understand the third ring? That's it, don't explain, that is, this land, I have already prepared, think about it, we have so many corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty, they have so much silver, but so much silver, they don't spend it, if they don't spend it, it's a crime, I think about it, I can't sleep......"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan angrily.

Fang Jifan patted Zhu Houzhao's shoulder: "Okay, now I'll give you another hint, the land outside the Third Ring Road is only a few dozen taels of silver per acre, His Royal Highness the Prince, these lands, sooner or later, will rise and rise, think about it, the land in the inner city of the capital division is certainly valuable, but the land in the outer city is also very valuable." ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded again and again, and the green tendons were about to burst out: "Old Fang, no one else in this palace admires you, but when it comes to such immoral deeds, I will obey you alone." ”

Fang Jifan stiffened his face: "Your Highness, don't ruin my innocence." ”

Zhu Houzhao slipped away, and suddenly began to get excited, unable to sit still, like a hundred claws scratching his heart.

Ground ......

You have to buy, how much to buy, what is the three rings?

He still didn't quite understand.

Of course, the three rings are indeed extremely valuable.

Because in this era, there were no high-rise buildings, and the population carried by the land was limited, and the city spread out like a pancake, often very large, but the population may be less than one-tenth of that of later generations.

coaxed the Empress Dowager to be happy, but next, she had to make this Daming Palace, no matter what, satisfy the Empress Dowager and her old man.

Seeing that it was not early, Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao said goodbye and went out to Fengtian Palace, at this time, Emperor Hongzhi was still here, giving a banquet to hundreds of officials.

At this time, the banquet was almost over, Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao wanted to leave, but were stopped by the eunuch: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Fang Duwei, Your Majesty has already told you that if the crown prince and Fang Duwei come out of the Empress Dowager, they will go to see the driver." ”

Zhu Houzhao was very helpless, glanced at Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan said awe-inspiringly: "I'm bright, what am I afraid of, go, see me!" ”

Fengtian Hall is one of the three main halls, only used on very special occasions, this main hall is extremely spacious, there are already hundreds of officials in it, each sits on a few cases, some people have been drunk, people have sent the Empress Dowager long life, and praise Your Majesty for being virtuous, some people began to chant poems, some people are red, and they look stupid.

Emperor Hongzhi was about to ask Ouyang Zhi to also make poems.

Ouyang Zhi stood blankly, dazed under the urging of the ministers.

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao came in, but they just happened to relieve Ouyang Zhi.

The two stepped forward: "I have seen my father, long live my emperor." ”

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be in a particularly good mood, and it was rare to drink alcohol today, and his face was red, and he said: "Hahaha, I have a son, a big Tartar, beheading the thief chieftain, whose son can be compared with my son?" ”

He was drunk, and at this moment, with a bit of heroism and arrogance, he looked left and right, and the ministers were silent, looking at His Majesty one by one.

Emperor Hongzhi patted the case: "I also have a son-in-law, how many great things he has done to benefit the country and the people, this is nothing, my son-in-law is naturally a great handsome, I don't usually say it, why?" ”

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao blinked, why.

The ministers were still silent.

But seeing that Emperor Hongzhi was full of anger, he said complacently: "That's because I'm afraid that you all will compare, so as not to embarrass the secretaries, I have this son and a son-in-law, the king of the world, who can compare with me?" ”

Very arrogant.

Zhu Houzhao said in a low voice: "Father is drunk." ”

"Yes." Fang Jifan was very sure.

"Hahahaha...... Hahahaha...... "Emperor Hongzhi laughed: "You guys, go with jealousy, go with envy, I ...... I don't care, I won't talk about this ability, just say my son-in-law, come and come, Fang Jifan, you come forward......"

Fang Jifan had no choice but to step forward.

Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan with drunken eyes, and suddenly burst into tears: "My son-in-law, he repaired the palace for me, everyone, tell me, in this world, is there a son-in-law who repairs the house for Taishan?" ”

…………

My mind went blank, sleeping.
