Chapter 521: Testing Huang Fu
"puff!"
Ma Qi was thrown forward by the knife, and couldn't help screaming a few times. "Δ" Lie Wen Wang Ww "W. Ω Lie Wen. CC
Zhu Gaoxu blinked and asked curiously: "Ma Qi, where did you get your courage? You want to rebel? Hahahaha!"
"Wrong, my lord!"
Ma Qi raised his head with difficulty, his face was covered with blood, "My lord, it was the thief He Jiawei who coerced the servant! The servant is loyal to His Majesty, and has never come in, so I wanted to report to you..."
Hearing this, even Fang Xing couldn't help laughing.
Many people were captured at the scene, as long as a confession is obtained, it is enough to crucify Ma Qi.
Zhu Gaoxu stepped down the steps, and with a movement of his right hand, the whip was pulled out.
"Snapped!"
"ah……"
Zhu Gaoxu was smoking Ma Qi, and Mu Sheng, who was cleared of suspicion, came over gratefully.
"Xinghe Bo, thank you very much. Let's have a drink after waiting for the matter here."
Fang Xing nodded, he wanted to set up an experimental field in Jiaozhi, and it was always right to have a good relationship with Mu Sheng.
The Mu family has been in Yunnan for many years and has long been deeply rooted. It is not comparable to a place like Jiaozhi that has repeatedly rebelled.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu ordered people to search Ma Qi's residence, and then ordered him to write a memorial to show his merits.
"Fang Xing, what to do with those prisoners?"
With more than 10,000 prisoners, eating every day is a big problem.
Most of the grain and grass in Cochin were taken care of by the salt merchants brought in from China and France, but it was a difficult turn to feed these captives the grain that had been transported so hard from Daming.
After thinking about it, Fang Xing said, "It's better to open up wasteland and farm, and circle around the area for people to guard."
So Zhu Gaoxu asked someone to write these words in the memorial and ask Zhu Di for instructions.
After dealing with these matters, Huang Fu discussed the matter with Fang Xing.
"Xing He Bo,
Cochin men are lazy, I'm afraid they will be forced too far and run away! "
Fang Xing said with a smile: "There are dozens of people in each team, just sit together, and there is a reward for reporting. If the whole team can escape from the guards, then we will lose."
Huang Fu frowned, and said in a low voice: "Xing He Bo, this matter is a bit..."
"That's it." Fang Xing said: "Otherwise the army will stay here all year round, and Da Ming will be overwhelmed!"
Huang Fu sighed: "I don't know what Cochin will be like in the future!"
"It will only get better!"
Fang Xing said firmly: "After the rebellion in the whole territory is eliminated, we should cultivate our health and rest, and collect taxes to support the garrison."
"It's hard!"
Zhu Gaoxu has already gone to clean up Ma Qi's wealth, and Mu Sheng went to his own camp to clean up He Jiawei's influence.
"Xinghe Bo, let's have a drink."
The past two days were too ups and downs for Huang Fu. First, the city was almost broken, and then Ma Qi, his old enemy for many years, wanted to rebel.
These things were intertwined, which made Huang Fusheng want to get drunk.
After arriving at Huang Fu's place, the chef fell ill because of the fright, and there was no one to make appetizers.
Huang Fu said awkwardly: "I know how to scramble eggs."
Fang Xing said with a toothache: "Then I'll do it."
In the kitchen, when Huang Fu saw Fang Xing's skillful movements, he felt mixed feelings.
The dignified Xing Hebo is so proficient in the kitchen, he must cook from time to time at home.
But nowadays, let alone relatives like Fang Xing, even among scholars, it's hard to find a few who can cook.
Fang Xing slipped the meat slices, made a big potpourri, and it was all over.
The two sat down in the wing room, Huang Fu touched the gauze around his neck, and laughed at himself: "This old man has always treated the Cochin people like the people of Ming Dynasty, but I didn't expect..."
Here, both of them were more casual and toasted each other.
Fang Xing took a sip of wine and smiled: "Currently the people's hearts are unstable. After all, the Central Plains has been far away from Jiaozhi for hundreds of years. The people's hearts can't be gathered so quickly. It takes time. They need to make them feel better than before, so that they can slow down. Slowly clear the gap."
Huang Fu raised his glass approvingly again and said, "Bo Xinghe is indeed a great talent in my Confucian school, capable of both literature and martial arts, I am ashamed of myself!"
Fang Xing's smile faltered, and he sighed, "Don't Master Huang know? Fang is no longer a Confucian."
Huang Fu just wanted to draw out this topic, so he asked: "Why is this so? Xing He Bo, is it exclusion?"
In Huang Fu's view, students of Confucianism should not set up their own schools. Fang Xing's behavior has never happened in many years.
Fang Xing picked up a piece of tofu that was full of gravy, slowly feeling the explosion of his taste buds, and then took another sip of wine to serve.
"Master Huang, this is not a dispute of sentiments, and Fang does not want his knowledge to be said to be miscellaneous, and he will be inferior to others from then on."
Huang Fu nodded understandingly, no one would like this kind of thing.
If you change to someone with a quick temper, you might find someone to fight for your life!
Knowledge is like one's own child, whoever dares to touch it will be unlucky.
Fang Xing picked up another piece of bison meat, squinted his eyes and ate it, "Fang and them have had conflicts many times, I repeat, this is not a battle of emotions, this is a battle of ethics!"
You want to suppress me? Hehe, even if you have a large number of people, I will not be relentless when I should dig into the wall. Time will prove who is the idiot!
Huang Fu drank his glass of wine regretfully. He felt that talents like Fang Xing could become a model of Confucianism in the future, but now it seems that, regardless of the model, everyone has become an enemy.
Huang Fu was physically and mentally exhausted, and Fang Xing confirmed Shen Hao's words that day, so he was in a bad mood for a while, and passed out after a few moments.
Fang Xing called someone to help Huang Fu away, and he stood there for a long time before returning to the camp.
Seeing Fang Xing's gloomy appearance, Xin Laoqi told Xiaodao to go out quickly. According to the habit, Fang Xing likes to be alone at this time.
"Old Seven, tell those who are on duty tonight not to come in."
"Yes, sir."
If Xin Laoqi came in at this time, he would definitely think that Fang Xing just now was a ghost.
After reappearing, Fang Xing's spirit has become much better. He is holding a book, lying on the simple wooden bed, reading it with relish.
Having nothing to say all night, Fang woke up the next morning to find Huang Fu again.
Huang Fu's spirit looked a little sluggish, he forced a smile and cupped his hands.
"Master Huang, Fang thinks that the culture and education of cochin is still not good!"
Fang Xing's trembling appearance made Huang Fu secretly lament his age, and then asked: "After years of war, Jiaozhi no longer has a stable place to teach, and it is better to be in Jiaozhou Capital."
Fang Xing said with a chuckle: "That's the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites. Those people have been clamoring all day long about Confucius saying to be benevolent and Meng saying to be righteous, but they shrink back when they hear that they are going to have intercourse. They really are invincible!"
"Master Huang, this matter can be big or small. It is related to the long-term stability of Cochin. Fang is preparing a memorial. What do you think?"
This is the first time Huang Fu has heard that Fang Xing is cheating people. He is sure that Fang Xing has a grudge against Lu Zhen, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, otherwise why would he single out the Ministry of Rites!
As long as Zhu Di agrees to this matter, then Lu Zhen from the Ministry of Rites will have to sit on the candle.
Call it, but no one wants to go.
If it is called by name and forced to be recruited, hehe! Some people guessed that Lu Zhen's villain would be behind his back.
Why! Lu Shangshu, how precious you are!
In this matter, Huang Fu couldn't refuse, so he simply agreed to co-sign the memorial with Fang Xing.
This person is really upright and awe-inspiring, willing to take the risk of offending Lu Zhen to co-sign.
Fang Xing bowed his hands to Huang Fu sincerely and said: "Master Huang, I took the liberty to test it just now, so let's leave this memorial at that."
Huang Fu was surprised and said: "But Cochin really needs to be educated!"
Fang Xing said with a smile: "The memorial was sent away with His Highness the King of Han yesterday, I think Jinling will reply soon."
Since you are frank, Fang doesn't bother to plot against you!
