Royal Gold Magistrate

Emperor Jing's gaze was still glued to the painting, refusing to move half a minute.

Yang Yingcai beside him was already sweating profusely.

As an old man in court, he can naturally see the current situation very clearly.

Just relying on this painting, many people have turned their hearts to Fang Zhengyi.

The girl's school is about abandoned babies, and the baby girl in the painting captures everyone's hearts. If I object now, I'm afraid it would be foolish.

However, Fang Zhengyi couldn't just rely on one painting and let Fang Zhengyi go on his way.

The hall was still in silence. After a long time, Yang Yingcai said: "Your Majesty, the baby girl in this painting is really regrettable. The painting is impressive. The so-called abandoned baby is really a helpless act. But as ministers of the court , it’s not just individual cases that have to be considered.”

"It would be unwise to disturb the decision-making of the overall situation because of a single painting. I personally think that the imperial court is sympathetic to the people, so they should find the parents of the abandoned baby, and the imperial court should provide great support to alleviate their plight."

Emperor Jing sighed and said: "Yang Qing is right, the family of abandoned babies in the painting..."

"The family of the abandoned baby in the painting is probably nowhere to be found. Since the parents abandoned their daughter in the wasteland, they just don't want anyone to know about it. On the other hand, they didn't directly kill the killer. I think they have kept a hope in their hearts. Things have passed. At the end, I don't think anyone should be sent to look for his parents." Fang Zhengyi hastily interjected.

"Even if the imperial court intends to help, but there are tens of thousands of other families who are helping this family, is it possible that the imperial court can treat one more favorably than another?"

Emperor Jing nodded slightly, regretfully said: "Let's just let it go and hang this painting in the imperial study!"

Fangzheng was full of joy, and pursued the victory: "You guys have a deep understanding of the plight of the abandoned baby."

"To alleviate the current situation, in my opinion, opening a girls' school is the best way to reflect the value of women and reduce abandoned babies."

"Absolutely not! Fang Duwei, I do not deny that the situation of abandoned babies is miserable. But the court's decision-making only looks at the whole, and you can't use a painting to disturb the audience. Of course, girls' schools may alleviate the situation of abandoned babies, but if you want to What to do if it causes other problems among the people, you must not avoid the important ones."

Yang Yingcai retorted hastily, but the gunpowder smell in the words has been much less.

After all, the painting just now had a great impact on him.

Fangzheng nodded: "Your Majesty, I cannot agree with what Lord Yang said. Yamen's judgment also emphasizes that the suspect should be lightened, or even never suspected. How to balance the obvious benefits and the disadvantages that may not happen? , I don’t think you should have too many worries.”

"Of course, I expected that someone would object to my establishment of a girls' school according to those stereotypes and customs, so there is a second thing to present to the hall."

"Present it!" Emperor Jing said.

Fangzheng said yes, and not long after, a guard carried a huge wooden box to the hall.

When the wooden box was opened, there was a lot of letter paper inside.

Everyone leaned over to look inside the box. The letterhead was full of content, and there were still red handprints on the corners.

Fang Zhengyi casually took out a stack, and held it up high: "The letterhead in this box is the official's order to collect the opinions of the people in Beijing to establish a girls' school."

"The reporter has explained the stakes and interests of every citizen who has had their fingerprints taken. They have also promised that for every woman recruited by Eastern Suburb University, they will be willing to support ten abandoned babies!"

"During the visit, the reporter from the newspaper encountered many homes for abandoned babies. Some of the contents were dictated by those ordinary people. Recalling what I regretted at the beginning, it can be said that every word is crying blood!"

Emperor Jing picked up one of them and read it carefully.

This page was printed in batches, and it described the girls' school and the abandoned babies in detail. At the end, there was a red handprint and a crooked name.

Presumably because the people are illiterate, the reporter wrote it in advance, and let the people imitate it.

Emperor Jing leaned over and took another sheet. This stack of letterheads was different from the others in that it was not written in a fixed content format.

It describes the memory of the common people's abandoned babies. There is no name, time, or place in the content... only endless regrets and longings.

Since it was spoken by ordinary people, the reporter described it according to the facts, and the language was straightforward and simple.

But it was just the simple words, plus the occasional smudged points between the words, which moved Emperor Jing.

Fangzheng stretched his head to look at the letter in Emperor Jing's hand, and licked his lips.

Everything is real, except that the smudged ink dots on it are the water he sprinkled...

The rest of the courtiers each took out the letterhead from the box to read, and fell silent again after reading it.

No one would suspect that Fang Zhengyi was a fake, it was impossible for this big box to be fake.

Just go out and ask around.

At this moment, even Yang Yingcai felt like a thorn in his throat.

He said that every girl's school would affect the folk atmosphere, but now this box of things just represents the public opinion.

Can he say that Fang Zhengyi deliberately sent people to guide the people to press the fingerprints?If you say so, I am afraid that His Majesty will be angry.

Take it easy and think about countermeasures...

While everyone was still immersed in the content, Fang Zhengyi approached Yang Fengfan and said, "Master Yang, I admire the first person to eat shiitake mushrooms, because they might be poisonous mushrooms."

"The same is true for some things, but once it is done, it will be the career of future generations of Fukuzawa!"

"Today, the greatest enemy in the north of Dajing has been pacified. Looking around the world, my biggest opponent in Dajing is myself."

"All the people in the world are His Majesty's subjects, but women face such tragedies and injustices, but because of some unfounded excuses, they procrastinate and take no action. What responsibility do they have?"

Fang Mingwei slightly raised his voice: "The court and the people are a whole, and the misfortune of the people is the misfortune of the court."

"In the face of those dead baby girls, who is the funeral music for? It's for you, and for me...Master Yang, am I right?"

Yang Yingcai broke out in cold sweat unconsciously, and kept silent.

Emperor Jing put down the letter in his hand and looked up at Fang Zhengyi, and said with relief: "If you live in a high temple, you will worry about your people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about your king. It really is not empty talk."

Fang Zhengyi said modestly: "My son's life principle is to worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joys later."

Good guy, another sentence popped up?Emperor Jing's eyes lit up!

hiss~~!

The ministers also put down the letter in their hands in surprise, and focused their shocked eyes on Fang Zhengyi.

If you live in a high temple, you will worry about your people; if you live far away, you will worry about your ruler. Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's happiness later... Did he say this?

At this moment, Fangzheng raised his chin slightly, and in the eyes of everyone, he seemed to be possessed by a holy light.

It is indeed a thankless task to open a girls' school and save abandoned babies.

And there is no conflict of interest with anyone else.

An official...a captain consort with no official title, it takes so much effort and determination to think about doing such a difficult thing.

Is this a whim of nonsense?

Obviously not, a painting and a box of Manmin Books are enough to show that he has put a lot of effort into it.

In the face of such a noble person, no matter what Fang Zheng's temperament or political views are, everyone admires him.

Li Yansong brushed his beard, his eyes flickered, and finally sighed: "After all, it is the young people who have the drive...the old ones."

"If you live in a high temple, you will worry about its people..." Someone murmured thoughtfully.

Li Yuanzhao was short of breath, and his excitement was beyond words.

Lao Fang can play six!This set of sets has done so much work in private.

Fang Zhengyi said at the right time: "I think everyone has a steelyard in their hearts, and now there are results."

"The affairs of the state are heavy, and you should not delay your discussions on other issues because of this matter. I suggest a show of hands to vote, support Mr. Yang's show of hands! Those who support me don't move."

...no hands raised.

Yang Yingcai didn't raise himself, a trace of grief and indignation flashed in his eyes, and he silently retreated to the side.

Lost, completely lost the defense.But why should those who support me raise their hands!Those who support you don't need to move?

Emperor Jing looked around, the corners of his mouth gradually turned up, and pointed at Fangzheng: "This is my son-in-law!"

"With such a heart, how many people in the world can compare to my son-in-law!? Tell me, who else is there!!"

Hearing Emperor Jing's laughter gradually rampant, all the officials bowed together and said: "I wait to congratulate Your Majesty."

"Hahaha, it's okay! Since this matter has been concluded, there is no need to discuss it from now on!"
