Chapter 1197
During the Zhengtong period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a small official in the capital. His surname was Chen, his first name was Ye, and his style name was Hanfan. His hometown was Dingxing, Baoding Prefecture, North Zhili.

He was a Jinshi during the Hongxi period. Since he passed the examination, he left his hometown and became an official. He handed over the [-] mu of fertile land passed down from his ancestors to his wife Fang's elder brother Fang An to manage it.

Fang An's style name is Siwei. He used to teach village studies in the village. He was a loyal and honest person. When the rent was collected in the first year, he exchanged it for silver and sent it to Chen Hanfan. His wife Liu said:

"You broke your leg in a year of running, and worn out three or five pairs of soles, so all the money will be given to him for nothing?"

Fang An said: "Don't we use this money for food and clothing? Don't be too greedy."

Mrs. Liu got angry after hearing this: "Why am I so greedy? Isn't this just for the benefit of your Feng family?"

Mrs. Liu quarreled and quarreled all night, but Fang An ignored it, and sent the money to Chen Hanfan's office the next morning.

At that time, Chen Hanfan was just a small county magistrate. He was honest and upright, and his life was not easy, but he refused to accept the money no matter what.

Fang An had no choice but to take the money home again, and said to Mrs. Liu: "You keep this money carefully, and you must not use it. From now on, save up the money every year, and give it to him when he needs it urgently. In the future If you have a nephew, help your nephew to start a family and start a business; if you have a niece, use it to buy a dowry."

Mrs. Liu agreed, but secretly rejoiced in her heart, thinking: "I have already given birth to two sons, but their husband and wife have none. From now on, not only the annual land rent will be returned to me, but also the [-] mu of fertile land will be lost. It belongs to my son!"

This Mrs. Liu only thought so at first, but after a long time, fortunately, she burned a stick of incense every day, begging the gods to bless Fang's not to have children.

In order to achieve this goal, Mrs. Liu heard that there is a White Lotus Sect in the village recently, and the enshrined Wusheng Old Mother is responsive to requests. It is called "Wusheng Old Mother, Vacuum Hometown", and she is the one who can best fulfill her wishes, so she quietly entered White Lotus Sect.

Time flies, and how many years have passed in a flash.He didn't want Chen Hanfan to be very arrogant to his supervisor because of his good performance appraisal, so he transferred him to the capital and worked as a sixth-grade experience department in the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Unexpectedly, in the second year after Chen Hanfan came to the capital, Fang gave birth to a fat boy in middle age, which made Chen Hanfan extremely happy.On the [-]th day, the mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and officials from the court who were close to him came to congratulate him.

Chen Hanfan named his son Chen Zhao, and when he was five years old, he invited a well-educated gentleman to teach him how to read and write.

At such a young age, Chen Zhao was very calm and intelligent, and Mr. Fan would never forget it once he taught it once.

At this time, on the northern grassland, he also inherited the position of the leader of Oara from his father. He respected the descendants of the Golden Family, Tuotuobuhua, as the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, and proclaimed himself the Grand Master Huai King, and actually grasped the highest power. Break through Wuliangha in the east and destroy Hami in the west, unify the grasslands, and shake beyond the Great Wall.

In order to completely rule the roost outside the Great Wall and establish a great career like Genghis Khan, in order to get rid of the shadow of the Golden Family, he led his army southward to attack Daming.

Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizheng was born in the hands of a woman in the deep palace. He was only 22 years old. , the imperial driver went out to fight, but suffered a big defeat in Tumu Fort, and Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was captured.

First, taking advantage of the collapse of the main force of the Ming army and the emptiness of the capital, he led the army southward in an attempt to capture the capital of the Ming Dynasty. At a critical moment, Yu Qian was ordered to serve as Minister of the Ministry of War. As the Supreme Emperor, Zhu Qizhen presided over the defense of Beijing and finally repelled the Oirat army.

After this battle, Yu Qian's prestige reached its peak, and he began to preside over the government and reuse loyal and upright officials.

After taking back the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen, Emperor Jingtai was unwilling to abdicate, so he imprisoned his elder brother in Nangong and honored him as the Supreme Emperor.Zhu Qizhen was placed under house arrest by Jin Yiwei, under strict control and surveillance. The palace gate was not only locked, but also filled with lead, and food could only be passed through a small hole.

However, this is a dispute between the Zhu family brothers, and Yu Qian has no intention of intervening, but only wholeheartedly governs the world and selects talents.

Because Chen Hanfan was upright and capable, he was promoted to be a member of the household department of the fifth rank, Wailang.

The family was even more joyful. Chen Hanfan felt that he was valued by the court, and he was more strict with himself and conscientious.

At this time, Fang An's wife Liu gave birth to three sons. The two eldest ones had already married and started a business. The third son was born the latest, named Fang San. He was the same age as Chen Zhao, but he didn't like to study and played around all day long.

He even followed Mr. Liu to the secret society of the White Lotus Sect, where he fooled around with those children and learned a lot of bad habits.

Because the elder brother of the Jiaozhong thought that Fang San was clever, he praised him a few times, and Mrs. Liu thought that her son was so great, and that he would be honored in the future, so he was very happy.

When Chen Zhao was 14 years old, the "Change of Seizing the Gate" occurred in the capital of Daming.

Because Emperor Jingtai's son died young and faced a national crisis, general Shi Heng, politician Xu Youzhen, eunuch Cao Jixiang, etc., in order to establish immortality, invited Zhu Qizhen to support him and restore him. The reign name is Tianshun. Arrest Yu Qian, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and Wang Wen, Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials.On January 22, the first year of Tianshun, he killed Yu Qian and Wang Wen for the crime of treason, abandoned the city, took his family, and persecuted civil and military officials recommended by Yu Qian.

Because Chen Hanfan's official position was small, his official position was just eliminated.

Chen Hanfan returned to his hometown with his wife Fang and son Chen Zhao. Because of anger and depression, he died of illness within half a year.

Fang soon fell seriously ill, and seeing that he could no longer survive, he asked his brother Fang An to come to him and said to him: "My brother-in-law left a message before his death, saying that the three hundred acres of fertile land will be left to you. In the future, Xiaozhou will grow up." There is no need to give it to him. His family’s ancestors have taught him that everything must be done by oneself. Never rely on the ancestral property and become an idle person with no income in your life. This is the real estate title, you have collected it..."

After Fang finished speaking, she gasped and grabbed Liu's hand again, and said with tears, "Xiao Zhao is still young, so I entrusted him to you, so treat him well... I think you like this child very much, so I will not worried……"

Mrs. Liu also cried, "I like Xiaozhao more than my third son. You can go at ease."

Mrs. Liu took Chen Zhao to her mother's bed. Chen Zhao cried and called her mother, but there was no answer.

After Fang An took care of his sister's funeral, he brought his nephew Chen Zhao home. When he entered the house, he accidentally fell and Chen Zhao fell and fell into a coma.

Fang An was in a hurry, and hurried to find a doctor, who knew nothing could be found, seeing Chen Zhao's face was pale, and his breath seemed to be unstable,

Fang An was extremely anxious, but Liu Shi was secretly happy.

But that night, Chen Zhao woke up, and when he saw Fang An, he called uncle, and when he saw Liu Shi, he called aunt, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing that he was fine, Fang An felt relieved.

When Mrs. Liu saw this, she had no choice but to suppress her disappointment and happily served Chen Zhao his soup.

That night, Fang An discussed it with his wife Liu: "Xiao Zhao is an extremely smart child and is at the age of studying. There is a Yuelai Academy in the town. My brother-in-law studied there. I want him to go there." Study and go with the mistress, both of you have someone to take care of you."

Fang An sent Chen Zhao and Fang San to the academy, and went to work on his own. He is the pillar of the family. He manages the real estate and land for a living, and has business contacts with people from time to time. It's over, and I'm drunk again, and I have to stay in an inn in the city.

Therefore, family affairs are all in charge of Mrs. Liu.

As a result, Mrs. Liu quietly went to the academy and gave her husband a large sum of money. Mr. Guan said that the one who wants to study at home is Fang San, and the one named Chen Zhao is just a companion. He has also read a lot of books. bother.

Watching Mrs. Liu leave quietly from the corner, Chen Zhao chuckled and didn't take it seriously.

If he is still the same Chen Zhao, who is small and weak, and has no parents to protect him, he is afraid that he will be tricked by this kind-hearted and cruel aunt sooner or later.

But now that he has recovered and is proud of the world, how can he take an old lady to his heart?
It's a pity that he came here a little late this time, more than half a year has passed since the change of seizing the door, otherwise he would have saved Yu Qian.

He is now 14 years old, his parents are dead, and he is taking shelter at his uncle's house.

Today the world is still considered peaceful. Ming Yingzong, who took over the door, and his son Ming Xianzong, are masters who don't make much trouble, and the lives of ordinary people are still passable.

If that's the case, then let's have a good experience in this Ming Dynasty.
