The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 124

[Chapter 124 Hosting Right]

Fang Xiu smiled and said, “It’s not because of the assassins from the past few days.”

Wu Yi suddenly understood and nodded.

Indeed, when he encountered an assassin for no apparent reason, he naturally wanted to strengthen his defenses.

Even he, after the assassination that day, added a few more guards to himself.

After all, no one wants to be on guard all the time, otherwise life would be too boring.

Not far away, the sound of fighting continued.

Wu Yi and Fang Xiu chatted wordlessly.

Suddenly, Wu Yi seemed to remember something and asked mysteriously: “Recently, something big happened in the palace. Have you heard about it?”

Fang Xiu was speechless.

Sometimes, he always felt that Wu Yi looked like the neighborhood aunt who gossiped all day long in his previous life. He

shook his head and said, “No.”

Wu Yi glanced around and saw no one around. He leaned into Fang Xiu’s ear and whispered: “I heard that His Majesty was furious yesterday. The eunuch was the dead eunuch. Liu Cheng, his head was hit with a tea cup and his head was bleeding.

Guess what happened?”

Fang Xiu glanced at Wu Yi angrily and said, “If you like to talk, get out.”

Wu Yi was stunned. Although he was in such high interest, he still said: “Someone saw Liu Cheng going to Prince Ning’s Mansion to announce the decree. Prince Ning hurriedly entered the palace and did not come out until late at night. One leg was lame and his face was covered with injuries.”

Fang Xiu asked: “What does this have to do with us?”

Wu Yi paused and was speechless for a moment.

yes.

Wu Xun has never participated in the matter of seizing the heir, and even if he did, his right to speak in the court is far less than that of civil officials.

Which one of King Ning and King Kang gained favor, which one fell out of favor, and what does it have to do with them?

Anyway, most of the military honors made great contributions to the founding of the new dynasty.

If there is no serious crime such as rebellion, even the emperor can’t do anything to them.

“It’s just chatting, why are you so serious?”

Wu Yi said.

In fact, when Fang Xiu heard the news, he was still a little happy.

After all, among the forces in the court who supported King Ning in seizing the throne, there was the Yang family, the Minister of Rites.

Mr. Yang, the Minister of Rites, did not have a good relationship with him.

“Master”

while Fang Xiu was thinking wildly, a voice interrupted him.

He looked up and saw a fat figure covered in blood walking in front of him.

Bai Xiaochun glanced at Wu Yi and said, “Master, today’s practice is over. Do you want to take a look.”

Fang Xiu waved his hand and said, “No, you can handle it yourself.” “Yes,

Master

.”

Bai Xiaochun, who only knew how to flatter and was like a dog in front of Fang Xiu, actually looked a little ferocious against the backdrop of blood.

Wu Yi frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

How could the training of government soldiers reach this point?

But even if Fang Xiu didn’t want to say it, he didn’t bother to ask.

He stood up, waved his hand, and said: “I came to you today mainly to tell you about the pro-military review. Since you already know about it, I will leave first.

Next time, I will treat you to Chunfeng Tower.”

Fang With a look of disgust on his face, Xiu waved his hand and said, “Go away.”

After Wu Yi left, Fang Xiu stood alone in the yard, lost in thought. If

the pro-military review

is done well, eighty thousand taels of silver will be nothing.

After all, in this era, there are no tickets, no investment, no advertising.

If the emperor can be persuaded, he will give himself the right to host the pro-military parade.

Then, you can make a lot of money with these.

The merchants in the capital are all shrewd.

I will never let go of something like this that can show my face in front of His Majesty.

Just

how to convince the emperor

is a big problem.

Need to think hard.

A stick of incense passed. Bai Xiaochun walked into the courtyard, stood in front of Fang Xiu, and said, “Master, there are seven assassins who infiltrated this time. Four of them were killed, three were captured, and none of them escaped.

You Look, how should we deal with them?

Fang Xiu thought for a while and said: “Keep them in separate custody and starve them for a few days, then I will handle them myself. “

“yes! “

Bai Xiaochun responded respectfully.

In the past, he was respectful to Fang Xiu because of the determination he had made since being bought by Fang Mansion.

So, his respect for Fang Xiu now is more sincere.

Others say that the young master has a brain disease, but how can a person with a brain disease earn 40,000 taels of silver in just three months?

Able to face assassinations without fear or change in expression; able to invent hot pot and smoothies; able to know when objects of different weights fall to the ground at the same time.

Can you guess that the assassin’s accomplices will definitely sneak into Fang Mansion and rescue the assassin?

Now, in his eyes, the young master is like Zhuge Liang or Jiang Ziya.

He knows everything from astronomy to geography.

I also admire him more and more.

Fang Xiu didn’t know this. He was just thinking about how to persuade the emperor.

After thinking for a long time, I couldn’t come up with a suitable method.

Simply, go all out, break the jar, and shout: “Come here, pen and ink!”

Yangxin Hall, Nuan Pavilion.

Emperor Chu looked at the memorial on his desk and was a little surprised.

This memorial is ordinary and has nothing special about it.

It attracted the attention of Emperor Chu only because it was presented by Fang Xiu.

Fang Xiu is a boy who is extremely lazy on weekdays.

I heard that I haven’t been on duty for half a month.

But every time, he could find a reason.

Either he was feeling unwell, or his brain disease had recurred, or he was bedridden because of an incapacitating illness.

Now, the assassin case gave him a reason to take a month’s leave.

However, the Wu Beiku case and the prince’s words yesterday, “worry before the world’s worries, and rejoice after the world’s happiness” gave him a new understanding of this lazy Fang Xiu.

After thinking about it, let him be.

Today, it is rare that a memorial will be presented.

Out of curiosity, Emperor Chu opened the memorial and read ten lines at a glance.

After reading it, his expression was a little strange.

Pro-military review is a tradition that has been left since the time of Taizu.

Once every four years, unless something big happens, it never stops.

The money required has always been shared between the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War.

However, the northwest, southwest, and grasslands are now unstable, and a large amount of money is needed for expenditure.

In comparison, the pro-military review seems less important.

In order to ensure that the salaries of the border troops can be paid on time, they can only be paid from the money originally collected by the pro-military review.

It is a helpless move to let the pro-army guards raise their own funds.

Emperor Chu had considered this matter.

If it doesn’t work, the event will be suspended.

Special times, special circumstances, special treatment.

But

this kid Fang Xiu actually received a memorial for this.

We must single-handedly bear all the money needed for the pro-military review.

This is a little strange.

Could it be that this kid wants to take this opportunity to please me?

Emperor Chu was a little confused.

This doesn’t seem like this guy’s style
