The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1895
[1895. Chapter 1804 Turning enemies into friends]
Jin Zhengxing was completely out of his mind at this time.
He could no longer hear the regent’s words clearly.
Just the word “Go”…but suddenly, he seemed to see a ray of light in the darkness.
After the light chilled his whole body, he felt a little warmer in an instant.
Get out… get out… get out…
At this moment, Jin Zhengxing suddenly felt tears pouring from the corners of his eyes.
He was beyond excited.
Don’t you have to die?
He was busy kowtowing: “Thank you for not killing me. Thank you for not killing me. Your Highness… Your Highness…”
Fang Jifan tried to raise his leg to kick him.
He subconsciously tilted his head, dodged, and immediately said: “Get out, student, get out now.”
There was no other word in the world that made him more elated at this moment, as if his wife had given birth to a son for him.
All of a sudden, he disappeared without a trace.
Fang Jifan clasped his hands behind his back and sighed, he was still too soft-hearted.
He immediately picked up the anti-poem that Jin Zhengxing left on the table and placed it on the candlelight. In an instant, the flames started and the paper was burned clean.
“Go and tell Wang Bo’an to pick up money and food in a few days.”
Wang Xiaohu put away the knife and looked a little regretful. After all, he was a guard beside the regent and the number one killer in Xishan. I don’t know why, maybe because of the kindness of the regent. He never had a chance to draw a sword and see blood. Every time he missed an opportunity, he felt a little regretful, as if something was missing in his career.
He bowed and said, “As ordered.”
…
Jin Gui saw his distraught son and stammered about his experience in Xishan.
Jin Gui was furious: “Is there any more law for the king? Is there any more law for the king? He, the dignified regent, does such a despicable thing? This…this…” He
was furious.
“I… I want to impeach this bitch.”
“No, no…” Jin Zhengxing knelt down and hugged his father’s thigh: “My son really mentioned anti-poetry, so the regent acted… …Cruel and unkind, he kills people when he says he will, not to mention…his gang members are all over the government and the public. Dad, dad, we must not do it. Let’s just accept this.”
Jin Zhengxing doesn’t want to die, let alone today’s bad luck .
On his head, he cried profusely and kept persuading.
Jin Gui felt that he could not get off the stage.
Of course he knew that since the anti-poetry was written by his own son, this was irrefutable proof. Moreover, His Majesty had always trusted Fang Jifan. Once this poem was sent to him, it was not too much to judge him as a rebel.
It’s just…he can’t swallow this breath.
I am the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, do you accept this nonsense?
I, Jin Gui, am also a respectable person.
So Jin Gui remained silent.
“Humph, traitor, you can settle your own accounts, but you are still talking nonsense here. How come I gave birth to a son like you when I had a clean reputation all my life? Is this an ordinary thing? The allocation of money and food is a national matter. This matter You don’t have to worry about it, I don’t believe what Fang Jifan can do, I am upright and have a breeze on my sleeves, hum!”
With that, Jin Gui walked away.
It’s just…
Jin Gui is still insisting.
In the ministry hall, he still acted like a normal person. He thought clearly that if he compromised on this matter, he would break the rules. He usually prided himself on being honest and strict, so he couldn’t bend his back because of this. If he really wanted to hand over the poem, he would He argued with reason, and even though he had many colleagues as guarantors, and Mr. Liu and Mr. Li spoke for him, His Majesty might not… just believe in such absurd things.
But these two days, when he was on duty, he found… that there were many more people in his home.
Someone is coming from my hometown.
There was an endless stream of people coming.
First, the relatives in Beijing… After all, the capital is now prosperous, and many officials have brought their family members to settle here.
Immediately afterwards, even those in Baoding came by train.
“Uncle…”
Jin Gui saw an old man, leaning on a stick and being supported by several cousins. The uncle could hardly open his eyes. He tried to open them. When he saw Jin Gui, he grinded his teeth. This was rickets. The old man, who was lying on his back and dying, suddenly found strength from nowhere. He raised his stick and started to hit people: “Beast, beast, you are trying to destroy our whole Jin family. What evil have we done?” , I was pointing out that you would rise to the top and revitalize the family, but who would have thought that you, a beast, would cause a huge disaster. “
“Uncle…” Jin Gui felt very embarrassed.
Immediately… I was surrounded by uncles, aunts, cousins, sons, and nephews. Everyone cried: “No, even if you risk your life, you can’t harm our whole family. Who is the regent? You Did you know that on the first day? How could you do such a thing? If you go against him, you don’t want to die. That’s fine. If you die cleanly, we, the relatives, will definitely give you a grand burial. But You can’t harm us, so why do you teach us to die with you?”
A junior on the side added: “Even if we don’t die, we will be sent to the Golden Continent…”
Then… everyone burst into tears again.
The whole family burst into tears.
Jin Gui was restless.
But someone else said: “It’s not good, it’s not good, Mother Liu is going to jump into the well, she is going to jump into the well.”
When Jin Gui heard this, his scalp was about to explode.
He lost his mother when he was young and was raised by Mother Liu’s milk. Although Mother Liu was a servant, in Jin Gui’s heart, she was almost the same as his biological mother.
His face was pale with fright, and he hurriedly followed the sound. The relatives on the side were still pulling and howling, which made him want to jump into the well.
Sure enough, when they arrived at the patio, Mother Liu, who was stopped by someone, sat down on the ground and cried loudly: “I fed a white-eyed wolf out. It’s only been a few good days, and he doesn’t want to live anymore. I’m a servant, no surname.” Jin, but I also know that the regent is ruthless and wants to kill your entire family, leaving no one alive. I will just die with the great nobleman. What am I afraid of? I am only afraid that I still have two sons. With Dagui’s help, it can be considered a peaceful life now, but when the time comes, the knife will be placed on their necks.”
When Jin Gui heard his mother calling him Dagui’s nickname, the memory of his childhood suddenly came to him. It came to his mind that when he became an official, he had always kept a straight face and kept a serious smile. Now… hearing the word noble suddenly made his nose feel sour and his eyes blurred with tears.
The uncle on the side actually broke away from the person who was supporting him and stepped forward: “Then die, it’s a clean death.”
Seeing that the person was about to fall into the courtyard, he was somehow held back by someone.
Jin Gui then heard the crying and cursing. He didn’t know whether it was ridiculous or the suffocation of being evacuated from the air. He raised his head blankly and stamped his feet: “I’ve done it, I’ve done it, I’ve done it, I’ll pay for it tomorrow.” Money and food, tomorrow…just tomorrow!”
He gritted his teeth and his body trembled.
