    What Fang Jifan admires most is Zhu Houzhao's courage.

    He dares to do things that others dare not do.

    He did not hesitate to take the blame that others did not dare to take.

    It¡¯s really amazing.

    Zhu Houzhao said: "Make it now?"

    Fang Jifan shook his head: "No, we have to follow the rules of the country. We must abide by the law first. I will write a memorial first."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, suddenly wanted to become a scholar.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It¡¯s really impossible to pass the time.

    His Majesty ordered the Ministry of War to issue a regulation regarding the Jiaozhi rebellion, but Jiaozhi is thousands of miles away, what ideas can he have?

    Faced with His Majesty's displeasure and the doubts of the princes in the court, Ma Wensheng felt more and more that there must be a broom star beside him.  Who is this bad guy?

    He always looks at the people around him with suspicious and critical eyes.

    Early this morning, someone from the palace suddenly came to see him.

    Ma Wensheng did not dare to neglect, and hurried to the Meridian Gate, and then entered the palace. When he arrived at Nuan Pavilion, he saw His Majesty's brows furrowed and he was still asking about Jiaozhi: "Is there no news from Jiaozhi yet?"

    Liu Jian shook his head. Regarding the matter of the Chief Envoy of Jiaozhi, Liu Jian was also worried: "Your Majesty, there is no news yet."

    Emperor Hongzhi stared at Liu Jian and said: "I heard that there are many rumors inside and outside the court that the imperial court and Jiaozhi are suspected of being overjoyed with great achievements, right?"

    "This" Liu Jian was ashamed, and he thought for a while: "This is such a discussion, but Your Majesty, this is nothing to worry about."

    Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Actually, it's not their fault. If everything goes smoothly, people will naturally praise it as opening up territories, civilizing and martial arts. But now that something has happened and the court is in a state of distress, people will naturally think that this  It is a great achievement to waste people and money. It is better to reset Annan Kingdom and send envoys to the palace. I have not slept well these days, thinking about this. Why is Jiaozhi always rebelling? If it is because of corrupt officials  I can punish evil officials. If the people are not fully clothed, the court will always find ways to help. But now is the most terrifying thing. Now, although there are corrupt officials and evil officials, they are not too bad; the people  Although they are also in poverty, they are not to the point of not having enough to eat. But they still rebelled. So, those people inside and outside the court were not wrong. This was indeed my fault, which led to the court's use of troops and countless expenses.  Money and food, in the endbut this is the result"

    Liu Jian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty must not blame yourself like this."

    Emperor Hongzhi seemed to have figured it out: "I have been thinking about this matter these days. In fact, Liu Qing's family, you don't need to comfort me. I know that I am not a sage emperor, and even my qualifications are far inferior to those of others."  Our ancestors. At the beginning, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty went on a military campaign. Although he had military exploits, he made the people miserable. In his later years, he issued a Luntai edict to blame himself. I am wondering if I have also made the same mistake as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.  Same mistake."

    He thoughtfully said: "Nowadays, the national treasury is already empty, but for Jiaozhi, we still need to deploy troops and generals, and we need to allocate countless money and food. These money and food are all the blood and sweat of the people. Even now, the repression has been suppressed.  After three or five years of rebellion, will they rebel again? Now it is a good year, and if they want to rebel, one day, if there is a natural disaster, I am afraid that the rebellion will be even more intense."

    "The people of Jiaozhi are not willing to submit to our Ming Dynasty, and they are unwilling to submit to me."

    Emperor Hongzhi looked depressed.

    He seemed a little resentful and was silent for a long time, revealing his inner thoughts: "Recovering Cochin is a rare achievement. What's more, I have ordered the British to announce the sacrifice of my ancestors three times."

    ""

    Liu Jian and others were speechless.

    This is of course His Majesty¡¯s little thought.

    Your Majesty is very simple and diligent. In fact, he has no other hobbies in this life, except that he wants to be a holy king.

    "But how can it be so easy for the Holy Lord? Wen Zhi is still reluctant, and martial arts At the beginning, the land west of Hexi was lost in His Majesty's hands.  After finally annexing Jiaozhi, His Majesty was extremely happy. He issued many edicts to treat the people of Jiaozhi well. He also required these edicts to be circulated and copied in the imperial newspaper.

    On the surface, these edicts are for the people of Jiaozhi. In fact this is a warning to the world. Come and see, I have taken over Jiaozhi. I have done what Emperor Wen failed to do.

    For this reason, many memorial texts were specially written, and the British Duke was sent to Nanjing to offer sacrifices to Taizu Emperor Gao and read them once.  I went to Fengyang, the central capital, to the Fengyang Sacrifice Mausoleum, and recited it again.  Finally, he returned to the capital to pay tribute to Taizu, Emperor Gao and other officials.is useless.  "

    Emperor Hongzhi thought thoughtfully: "Then give them generous gifts and give them privileges and benefits just like when Annan was here?"

    "That's not possible. Once they are given enough privileges and benefits, they will definitely bully the people, and the people will be starved of food and clothing. They may not resent these people, they will only resent the Ming Dynasty."

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled bitterly: "It's really difficult to have both ends."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    At the same time, an urgent message arrived in Guiyang.

    Fang Jinglong, the Marquis of Pingxi, was ready to dispatch troops and generals and immediately went to Jiaozhi to suppress the civil uprising.

    He didn't sleep well these two days, but this urgent report made Fang Jinglong's eyes drop.

    "Husband, what's the matter?" Ms. Liu was dressed in military uniform. She had also mobilized many young tribesmen to join the army, preparing to follow her husband into Jiaozhi to quell the rebellion.

    Under this military uniform, she looked even more heroic.

    ? Seeing Fang Jinglong¡¯s crazy look on his face, Mrs. Liu couldn¡¯t help but feel strange.

    Fang Jinglong took a breath of cold air: "There is no need to go to Jiaozhi." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
