Ni Chong entered the door in despair. Even if he was beaten to death, he didn't expect that Yu Ruyi and one hundred taels of silver could only survive.

How damn excessive!

Li Yuanzhao couldn't hold himself any longer. He had been watching from Fang Zhengyi's side from the beginning.

It doesn't matter what he does if Fangzheng is so thick-skinned, he can't stand it!

Seeing that no one came to the door again, Li Yuanzhao impatiently pulled Fang Zhengyi to a corner where no one was.

He asked: "Lao Fang! Are you short of money? If you are short of money, tell me, as a human being, we should have some face!"

"I can't stand it anymore!"

Fang Zheng smiled slyly: "Your Highness, you don't understand this. I'm making a fool of myself."

"Self-deprecation...why are you so angry?" Li Yuanzhao twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Haha, I suddenly feel that my reputation among the people is too good. I am almost perfect. But there is a problem. A perfect person must be a hypocritical person. I have to make some flaws for myself to enrich my image.

, and so on

When people look at me, they think I am a lively, lovely and respectable person. Can Your Highness understand? Besides... wouldn't he be happy with charging more money? Look at the ministers who came today. Who doesn't have some happy events in his family? And I

Isn’t it because I haven’t followed you before that I can’t collect some capital?”

"Uh...it seems you are really shameless."

"Hey, after today, I don't know how many public officials will impeach you, and even the six ministries will issue reports to attack you among the people. Are you not bothered enough by so many political discussions?" Li Yuanzhao said helplessly.

Six departments sent a report to attack me? This is what I want!

Otherwise, how can I be allowed to be blacklisted by Banshan Daily? That’s outrageous. How can I post a section about famous people’s quotes in the future?

Fang Zhengyi sneered: "I have been impeached by them all year round. Am I afraid of them? They all only know how to write moral articles and practice Qi-nurturing Kung Fu. They don't like people like me if they do well, and they don't like them if they don't do well.

If you don't care about your eyes, why should you be so hot-tempered but cold-hearted? I only do what I think is right." Junquge

"Never mind this for now, why do I feel that so few people from Honglu Temple and the cabinet are here today? Has His Highness noticed it? His Majesty said he would come today, can he still come?"

Li Yuanzhao thought for a while: "Oh, when I said hello in the morning, I heard that the Kingdom of Jin sent letters of credence to celebrate the trade between the two countries and sent a delegation to visit. The leader of the delegation was the second prince of the Kingdom of Jin."

"My father must have been convening people to discuss this matter after he retired from the court, so that's why he didn't come."

"Oh..." Fang Zheng nodded and said thoughtfully: "It's a little strange. We are the ones who have made a lot of money from trade in these years. What do they mean by being so enthusiastic? They even sent a prince. This person is

What's the origin?"

Li Yuanzhao recalled: "Well, let me think about it... Utu has seventeen sons..."

"What the hell, how can a reincarnation of a breeding pig be so fertile?"

"That's right!" Li Yuanzhao had a look of hatred on his face. He had worked hard for so long to give birth to a cub, but it was sobbing like a pig or a lamb.

I don’t know what kind of medicine Wutu took.

"Hey! Don't interrupt. Among his sons, only the eldest is the eldest, and the third and fourth are more famous. The second eldest son... is not well-known. I think his name is Ali Bai, and he has no achievements."

"Hmm... that's fine. I'll have to be picked up by my royal guards at that time. I might cause some trouble with my arrogant remarks."

Fang Zheng raised his hand, and suddenly a voice floated from far away.

"According to the Inspector General... I only gave fifty taels of silver..."

"Damn it, you have the nerve to take out fifty taels to lick your big face, what a poor guy! Your Highness, come with me to make him angry!"

...

In the Qinzheng Hall, all the important officials are there.

Emperor Jing said: "The Kingdom of Jin suddenly sent a mission, what do you think?"

Chen Hong, the Minister of Honglu Temple, said: "Your Majesty, I don't think there is much need to worry about this matter. In addition to a letter of credence, I also present a handwritten letter from Grand Master Paba."

After saying that, Chen Hong took out the letter from his sleeve and handed it over.

Then he said: "Although the Jin Kingdom did not gain much from trade, it can be said that each exchange gained what it needed."

"This trade is to express goodwill and to further expand the scope of commercial goods. I don't think I have any other intention."

"In addition, Paba also specially invited Mr. Fang to meet in the capital of the Kingdom of Jin."

Emperor Jing picked up the letter and looked at it carefully. After a long time, he raised his eyes and said, "Fang Qing? This is not what he should do. It would be overstepping the bounds for Praba to name him by name, right?"

Chen Hongdao: "Your Majesty, the Jin Kingdom is sending people here this time, and it is the second prince who leads the team. The sincerity is profound, and the courtesy is not disrespectful!"

"Although Mr. Fang is not responsible for trade matters, when Praba visited our country before, he and Praba had a very pleasant conversation and had similar interests."

"I think we took this situation into consideration."

"What's more, although the second prince Alibai is not favored by Utu, his status is indeed real. If he just sends an ordinary envoy, I am afraid that it will be disrespectful and the courtesy is inconsistent, which will damage the reputation of our Dajing.

.”

"My intention is that some officials can be sent to assist Mr. Fang. This trip is suitable for him to enjoy the mountains and rivers."

"Besides... I see that Mr. Fang's performance towards merchants and merchants is far inferior to that of ordinary officials. I wonder what your Majesty thinks?"

Emperor Jing nodded, turned around and asked, "Master Li, what do you think?"

Li Yansong bowed slightly: "I think this is just a small matter and not worthy of the court being too nervous. In recent years, there have been frequent exchanges between border towns and the two countries are friendly."

"Before the trade, the relationship between the two countries was tense, and there were often conflicts on the border. But since the trade, there have only been occasional frictions. Last year, the Jin Kingdom was hit by heavy snow, but the border was not violated. This shows the sincerity of the other party."

"It's just a formality to show friendship. It doesn't matter who you send, as long as the etiquette is appropriate."

"Do you all think so?" Emperor Jing asked.

Everyone below nodded in agreement.

Emperor Jing closed his eyes and thought, tapped the imperial case with one finger, and said slowly: "Even so, I always feel uneasy in my heart. Beirong has changed its name to Jin, and its actions in recent years have been quite strange. This time, I took the initiative to show my kindness.

, I don’t know if I’m overthinking it.”

"It's okay to send Fang Qing, but I still want to ask his opinion. After all, my grandson was just born, so I can't not see my father for several months."

"Speaking of which, today is the full moon for my grandson!" A smile suddenly appeared on Emperor Jing's face.

"I would like to congratulate Your Majesty."

Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "That's it for today. The Princess Mansion is holding a full-moon banquet. It might be too late for all my dear friends to go there now. We will make plans for the rest of the matters after the Jin Kingdom's envoy arrives in the capital."
