.,

Liu Jian's face was already flushed, and he only wished that the court would not pay him a penny. Now he only hoped that His Majesty would respond quickly. As for Chen Yan, he no longer had the heart to pay attention to it.

Zhu Houzhao also had a bright face.

Just this trip, I don't know how much money I can make for nothing.

He nodded readily and said, "I have approved this matter, and you are allowed to build the railway by yourself."

Hearing this, Fang Jifan seemed to be afraid that Zhu Houzhao would promise something indiscriminately again. You are not joking, so he immediately added from the side: "Your Majesty means that you are allowed to build the railway, and you report the plan. If you need the land of Xishan Qianzhuang, then you will have to pay for it." It is the Xishan Bank who bought the shares with the land, which accounts for 55% of the shares, which is not too much. At that time... the railway is repaired, and you will be able to take advantage of the land."

Merchants in this era will naturally not have any unreasonable thoughts. It is a good thing for them to invest in land from Xishan Bank. In this way, their own investment is equivalent to being tied to Xishan Bank. This is the greatest guarantee. !

With the guarantee, many merchants are happy.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan with a look of astonishment, never expecting that Lao Fang would be so ruthless, and he took up a large amount of shares by offering a worthless land.

Isn't this an empty glove white wolf?

He glanced at Fang Jifan in admiration.

Fang Jifan still smiled, changed the topic, and said to Liu Jian: "Mr. Liu, this Chen Yushi is a man of character."

Fang Jifan paused, and then said: "What he said just now is not unreasonable. Although Chen Yushi insulted me, it was because of his righteous words that I felt that I was wrong. The so-called people are not sages, who can do nothing?" However, it is precisely because there are people like Chen Yushi in the imperial court that people can see their mistakes clearly. After hearing what Chen Yushi said, I admire him very much. I heard that there are many vacancies in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Why not How about promoting Chen Yushi as the capital censor to reward his loyalty?"

Promotion?

Liu Jian was taken aback, this is a bit unreasonable, in his heart, Fang Jifan is definitely not such a magnanimous person!

Chen Yan originally thought that his death was imminent, but unexpectedly...

He looked at Fang Jifan in astonishment, with a look of vigilance.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help being slightly displeased.

Fang Jifan immediately said: "In short, I want to recommend Chen Yushi. He loves to argue so much. No, he loves impeachment so much. He is really a rare talent in my Ming Dynasty. It would be a pity if he doesn't become the imperial censor. Minger I will send him to Huangjinzhou, let him inspect the Fang family's fiefdom, and let him criticize the Fang family's mistakes every day, and I will use Chen Yushi as my mirror."

Golden Continent...

When Chen Yan heard these words, his scalp became numb.

That's Fang Jifan's land.

To be honest, going to sea with the emperor is still considered exile.

Now Fang Jifan wants him to go to Huangjinzhou, but anyone with a little heart knows that this means that his wealth and life are all in the hands of the Fang family. Once he boards the boat, who will know whether he will It will be killed in the vast ocean and thrown into the sea to feed the fish!

Fang Jifan, this bastard, can do anything. On the vast ocean, even if he is dead, no one will pay attention to it. After all, there is a huge risk in sailing, and people will only regret it. You Chen Yan Bad luck.

Chen Yan immediately wailed: "No, I won't go to Huangjinzhou."

"Don't toast, don't eat fine wine." Fang Jifan suddenly pulled his face down, it seemed that because he became a cabinet scholar, everyone always thought Fang Jifan had a good temper.

But at this moment, Fang Jifan was still lamenting that Chen Yan was a loyal person. Suddenly, Fang Jifan suddenly had a murderous look on his body, and his eyes stared at Chen Yan firmly, showing a ferocious expression on his face.

Chen Yan shuddered fiercely, and quickly looked at Liu Jian.

Liu Jian was silent, but now he wants to know whether the railways in various places can raise funds to start construction.

For a person like Chen Yan who likes to make trouble, it's better to see it out of sight.

The toast is of course going to Huang Jinzhou, so what is the fine wine, but it may not be known.

Chen Yan seemed to have taken time out, his eyes were red, he was trembling with fear.

The rest of the officials, at this time, even lost their spiritual support, like a frightened bird.

Zhu Houzhao immediately said: "Since Fang Qing's family thinks that Chen Yan is still useful, then I agree, I will send him to Huangjinzhou tomorrow, and I will pay for the boarding fee. Well, it's getting late, let's drive back palace!"

This is what Zhu Houzhao wanted.

Liu Jin was on the sidelines, watching Chen Yan covetously.

Don't look at Liu Jin in front of Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, it is a kitten, or the kind that has been castrated, but in front of others, he has become a hungry tiger. He shook the flesh on his face, and smiled. grinned.

Zhu Houzhao first went to invite the Empress Dowager, and then boarded the car by himself, and the group returned to Daming Palace in a mighty way.

First send Empress Dowager Zhang to Fengtian Hall, where Empress Dowager Zhang took a seat and let out a sigh of relief.

Today's trip shocked her. She entered the palace more than 30 years ago. How could she have imagined that the world outside the palace had already changed drastically.

Zhu Houzhao said: "My mother, this time is really thanks to the two uncles. With the theories they put forward and the plans involved, the Ming Academy of Sciences may have two more academicians."

academician……

Empress Dowager Zhang was surprised.

She has long learned from the mouth of the emperor that the academicians of this Academy of Sciences are all peerless

The smartest man, his two brothers... Are they worthy?

But seeing Zhu Houzhao mentioning the two uncles, his tone seemed to be more respectful. Empress Dowager Zhang knew the emperor's character, and her son, good or bad, was written on her face. People who don't like it can't pretend to like it, but if they admire it People can also be seen on his face.

"In addition, they have made great achievements this time. I will reward them according to their merits. I want to give Marquis Shouning the Duke of the State and Uncle Jianchang the Marquis. I am afraid that all officials will criticize them, but... let the Ministry of Rites handle it first. alright."

Empress Dowager Zhang was even more stunned.

But behind Zhu Houzhao, Fang Jifan was smiling.

In the eyes of Empress Dowager Zhang, Fang Jifan's smile must have a deep meaning. I'm afraid Fang Jifan contributed a lot here.

Empress Dowager Zhang gave Fang Jifan a meaningful look.

Fang Jifan returned with a bewildered expression.

Empress Dowager Zhang was overjoyed and said: "You and the two uncles are a family. I don't care whether this matter is successful or not. What I care about is the emperor's heart. The emperor went to Huangjinzhou. Gong is missing day and night, I wish I could also accompany the emperor, go to Huangjinzhou to serve the emperor, but I can't worry about the emperor, and I can't worry about the Zhang family... hey..."

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said: "The empress must not go to Huangjinzhou. The Huangjinzhou is now a barren land. How can the empress endure the pain of the bumps?"

Empress Dowager Zhang wanted to say something, but she hesitated to speak.

Immediately, he smiled and said: "Anyway, I feel at ease now, Ji Fan, let Xiu Rong enter the palace tomorrow, I have something to say."

Fang Jifan hurriedly agreed.

Immediately, Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan left.

Coming out of Kunning Palace, Zhu Houzhao frowned, showing a rare worry, and said, "Old Fang, the Queen Mother seems to want to go to the Golden Isle very much. What's so good about the Golden Isle? I just saw what the Queen Mother wanted to say."

Fang Jifan said casually: "Perhaps the empress is worried about the emperor."

"Father has so many people serving him, so there is nothing to worry about."

Fang Jifan said treacherously: "Maybe it's because there are too many people serving. If you are not careful, the emperor will give your majesty a few brothers."

"Yeah." Zhu Houzhao said angrily, "How dare he? Turned against him!"

After all, Zhu Houzhao shrugged his shoulders and felt a slip of the tongue: "The queen mother really thinks too much, the father shouldn't be like this, old Fang, right?"

Fang Jifan didn't answer, he was silent for a long time, but said: "Your Majesty is becoming more and more like an emperor."

These words... have a certain meaning. In the past, what he dared to say was clearly the emperor's line to Zhu Houzhao. Now it's all right, once the power is in hand...

Zhu Houzhao then touched his nose: "Lao Fang was really cruel just now, and he asked for 55% of the shares all at once."

This is a serious matter, Fang Jifan said solemnly: "What Your Majesty said is about the railway?"

Zhu Houzhao said: "In my opinion..."

Fang Jifan interrupted him: "Your Majesty, the railway is a national instrument, and it involves the national economy and the people's livelihood. It is right to allow merchants to build the railway. After all, the money that the court can mobilize is limited. But has your majesty ever thought about it? It is the railway from Tianjin Weixiu to the capital that is profitable. Of course, tens of thousands of people are willing to give money to benefit from it. But I, Ming, only the railway from Tianjin Wei to the capital? Merchants will never build it The railway went to the desert, and he refused to spend money to repair the expensive railway to Sichuan. In the end...the court had to figure out a way to get the most profitable railway, and let them take away all the benefits, then...others What does the imperial court want to repair the railway? If Xishan Bank does not take these shares and control the ownership of this railway with 55% of the shares, in the future...wouldn't it be controlled by others? Brothers can settle accounts clearly, let alone the imperial court and merchants ? Although His Majesty is relying on merchants now, he still needs to put his ugly words in front to avoid endless troubles in the future."

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao seemed to understand: "I thought you and merchants were like glue, so you also have these thoughts."

Fang Jifan said seriously: "I am only loyal to two things, one is Your Majesty, and the other is the common people in the world. But I am willing to do anything that is beneficial to Your Majesty and the common people, and I will do it with all my heart. As far as I'm concerned, it's nothing but clouds."

Zhu Houzhao thought for a while, then looked straight at Fang Jifan: "I am more important, or is the world more important?"

Fang Jifan: "..."
