Royal Gold Magistrate

Li Yuanzhao led Fangzheng to a remote place, dispersed many serving eunuchs, and said impatiently: "I have many questions to ask you. When you cure the flood..."

"Your Highness, wait a minute! I have something to say..." Fang Zhengyi interrupted Li Yuanzhao.

"How did you get the injury on your face? Could it be that there are still people in the palace who can beat you?"

Fangzheng became curious about this question as soon as he entered the door. The wound on the prince's face looked like a whip. Which ruthless person would dare to hurt the prince's face?

Who knew that Li Yuanzhao immediately bared his teeth and said viciously, "Who else can it be! Who else can it be!"

"Who else in the palace would dare to attack me except the emperor!"

"I don't know what medicine my father took wrongly. I went to see him yesterday to say hello, and after I said a few words, I was hung up and beat me up, and I accidentally slapped me on the face!"

"I didn't make a mistake after thinking about it for a long time! Hiss...it still hurts now!"

"......" Fang Zhengyi immediately shut up, acting like a quail.

"Uh... Hey! Whether I should say it or not, the wound on His Highness's face has added a bit of sternness. It looks extremely majestic! He is a real man with iron blood and a real man with a great view. I admire you! "

Li Yuanzhao touched the wound on his cheek and was happy: "Really!?"

Fangzheng slapped his chest fiercely: "Really! I guarantee Fangzheng's character! Aside from His Royal Highness's dragon aura, he is simply the appearance of a mighty general! It makes people bow down as soon as they want!"

Li Yuanzhao laughed immediately: "Okay, okay! Only you, Fangzheng, understand me one by one in the palace. I am a natural general, but my father and the old officials in the palace always belittle me! You have eyes but no eyes!"

Fangzheng couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It seems that the prince's life in the palace is not very good. It seems that in the palace, the emperor and his ministers take turns to tease him every day, and he doesn't have a friend around him. It is not easy to maintain this innocent and optimistic personality.

"Ah...what did your Highness want to ask me just now?"

"Sky thunder! I want to ask you how to send down the sky thunder to cure the flood?" Li Yuanzhao's eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Your Highness was joking, there is no sky thunder... It is just a man-made tool, just like a hammer and sickle, but the amount obtained by chance is not much, and after it is created, His Highness can have as many as you want."

"Oh..." Li Yuanzhao's face was full of disappointment, but he still didn't give up, and then asked: "Aren't the sword fairy flying with the sword written in the book all fake? There are no ghosts and gods in this world?"

Fangzheng hesitated for a moment. As a serious and progressive young man, of course he didn't care about ghosts and gods.

But it's a bit embarrassing that he actually came here through his mother's time.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Ghosts and gods... this minister doesn't believe it, it's all rumors from foolish people! A waste can only become a dead waste when it dies, and if you feel a little resentful in your heart, you want to turn salty fish into an evil ghost? It's just the people's good wishes. That's all!"

"And think about it, the peerless masters in those novels are either blind or beggars, or weak scholars. Most of these books are written by weak scholars, and they may want to express their unsatisfactory life."

"That's right...something makes sense..." Li Yuanzhao felt hit hard, and the spiritual world he had been fantasizing about seemed to be shattered...

"As for Yujian flying, it's just a fiction in the book!"

"Your Highness, after watching a lot, you will know that overseas barbarian sword immortals still fly on broomsticks! Is this reasonable?"

Li Yuanzhao raised his eyebrows: "Riding a broom? This is new, and riding is easier than standing, but it's not very beautiful when you think about it..."

"What's the matter? It didn't break the basket!"

"...So that's the case, then it's suitable for Liu Jin to ride."

The more you talk, the more outrageous it is, this topic can no longer continue!Fang Zheng quickly interrupted him and said, "Is there anything else you want to ask, Your Highness?"

"Oh, there's still the phonograph..." "It's been dedicated to His Majesty."

"Then I heard that there is a sketcher in Taoyuan County. His painting skills are amazing, and he can make it as lifelike as it is real. I want to see it."

Fangzheng smiled and said, "Your Highness, sketching is a painting technique. If Your Highness is interested, I will immediately send the artist over to let you learn."

Li Yuanzhao said: "It's not necessary, I just want to see and see, I can also paint, but I often think about what kind of painting is worthy of the four words lifelike."

"The painters in the palace didn't look very similar...Look, this is the picture I drew this morning, how is it?"

Speaking of which, Li Yuanzhao took out a piece of rice paper from his chest and unfolded it. The painting seemed to be some kind of animal, with black and white lines forming...

Fangzheng was surprised when he saw it one by one: "Ah! I didn't expect His Highness to draw penguins! It's so resembling!"

Li Yuanzhao was confused: "What is a penguin? It's a kingfisher!"

"................."

Fangzheng said without changing his expression, "That's right! In my hometown, kingfishers are called penguins. This is a dialect."

"That's right! It seems that Ben Gong does have some talent in this area." Li Yuanzhao sighed.

Fangzheng twitched the corner of his eye twice.

"Yes! I didn't expect His Highness to be both civil and military... It's just that this kind of art is still too early for human beings. It will be a national treasure in 800 years. Put it away!"

"Hahaha! If you have vision, then this painting will be given to you!"

"...Thank you Your Highness"

Fangzheng took the painting expressionlessly and stuffed it into his bosom, then took out a thick pile of things from his bosom, and whispered: "Your Highness, I have hit it off with Your Highness, and I have prepared a gift for Your Highness for the first time. !"

Li Yuanzhao was taken aback when he saw the thick stack of banknotes handed over by Fang Zhengyi, took a step back and said in surprise, "What is this!? Banknotes?"

This banknote was a small banknote specially exchanged by Fang Zhengyi, a total of 1 taels, and the thick stack seemed to be more than what was given to Emperor Jing at the beginning!

Seeing him dodging, Fangzheng said displeasedly: "What does your Highness mean? Look down on me, Fangzhengyi?"

"This 1 taels of silver is just a little bit of my heart. I regard the prince as a close friend, so what is a mere silver?"

Li Yuanzhao was surprised: "This is 1 taels!?"

"Exactly!"

Li Yuanzhao's eyes suddenly revealed a look of greed. The monthly money that Emperor Jing gave to the East Palace was about 500 taels, and this 1 taels was a huge sum of money for him.

But he still hesitated: "I'll take your money, is this...appropriate?"

Fang Zhengyi lamented: "Brothers are like siblings, money is like dung, if you don't accept this money, Your Highness will look down on me and won't treat me, Fang Zhengyi, as a friend!"

"I, Fangzheng, have nothing but silver at home. Could it be that His Highness despises my minister's stink of money?!"

Li Yuanzhao quickly waved his hands and said in a panic: "No! I treat you as a friend, don't think so!"

As he spoke happily, he snatched the money from Fangzheng's hand and stuffed it into his sleeve. He was touched and said, "You brother, I've confirmed it! If anyone in the palace bullies you, I will find you!"

"Your Highness, be polite! If so, His Highness will call me Lao Fang from now on! Tell me if you have anything to do!"

After a while, the two began to warm up, chatting and laughing happily, and they were completely in a mess.

At this time, the little eunuch Liu Jin ran over in a panic, and seeing the prince and Fang Zhengyi hooking shoulders together, he opened his mouth and said in a low voice, "His Royal Highness! Yan Zhan is here!"
