Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 536 Benevolent Teacher

  Qi Jingtong.

  He is Qi Jingtong.

  Look at this guy.

  Fang Jifan was moved.

  Qi Jiguang's father.

  Fang Jifan stepped forward, immediately supported him, wanted to lift him up, and said calmly: "So it's Qi Qianhu, please get up quickly."

  Ding Yuanhou will never play his cards according to the routine.

  Even Deng Jian, who was following Fang Jifan, had already gotten used to it. His face was numb, as if... whatever the young master did, he was very reasonable.

  Qi Jingtong was stunned.

  From what Tang Yin and Hu Kaishan said, he knew very well that Marquis Dingyuan was a very proud person, and he was looked down upon by anyone.

  Anyone, in his eyes, is a scum, even a person like Tang Shixue who can be named on the gold list, ranks first, and has made great contributions.

   For such a disciple, whoever is his mentor should boast about it everywhere, right?

  It can be determined that Yuan Hou is not.

   It is said that some disciples only passed the second-class Jinshi examination, and the Marquis of Dingyuan gave him a slap in the face.

  I am a vulgar martial artist, and I am just a mere deputy. To be honest, in front of Fang Jifan, I am really like an ant.

   But looking at Fang Jifan's amiable look, he wanted to help himself up.

  Qi Jingtong knelt and refused to get up.

  Fang Jifan thought to himself, I am ashamed to say it, I borrowed your son's military book, and now I have Ningbo Shuizhai, but I can't tell the outside world about these things.

   I, Fang Jifan, are a man of three views and uprightness. If it wasn’t for the fight against Japanese pirates, I would **** your son’s book? No, plagiarizing your son's book?

  Therefore, Fang Jifan has sympathy for Qi Jingtong. This is due to his noble morality. He always feels that piracy is not good, and people should support genuine ones. It’s not easy for book writers.

  Qi Jingtong was stunned, looking at Fang Jifan's amiable look, he was so moved that he was trembling with excitement.

  In the human world, it is so unreasonable. If a person who is affectionate to everyone, you will not think there is anything wrong with him, but you will take it for granted.

   But a lone star of heaven and evil, he is very stern when he meets everyone, but he is like a spring breeze to you, a small person. At this moment, it is like the dry wood in his heart is ignited by Fang Jifan, and the fire suddenly bursts into flames, ah, what a big fire.

   A stream of warmth swept across Qi Jingtong's body in an instant, and Qi Jingtong burst into tears, feeling extremely excited.

"If the mentor doesn't tolerate the student, the student will not get up even if he dies. The student was able to wear the sinful minister from the mere vassals and make military exploits. These credits are all the merits of the mentor. The student has met His Majesty and affirms His Majesty. According to the decree, I, Qi Jingtong, will be accepted as a disciple. I, Qi Jingtong..."

  Qi Jingtong is such a big soldier, when he talked about the emotional part, he burst into tears, sobbed and choked up.

   "I, Qi Jingtong, am a vulgar person. I know that I am not worthy of my teacher, but even if the student is only a lackey in the Fang family, I will be content in this life. I also hope that my teacher can give the student a chance to serve."

  Fang Jifan shook his head quickly: "No, no, I can't be your mentor. Speaking of which, I feel very ashamed."

  Deng Jian was behind him, his body shook.

  Young master... unexpectedly became humble.

  The sun is coming out from the west.

  Wen Yansheng nodded secretly beside him, yes, yes, a young man is so talented, yet so humble, rare, rare.

  Qi Jingtong was very stubborn, and said very firmly: "It is the student's lifelong wish to come to Beijing this time to worship the teacher. If the teacher does not recognize me as a student, the student will not be able to kneel down."

   "..."

   Is the world crazy, or is he crazy?

  Brother, I, Fang Jifan, are also a shameful person. I stole your son's art of war, and I still have the face to recognize you as a student. I, Fang Jifan... will always be upright...

   Can't do such a thing.

   "Teacher..." Qi Jingtong quit. He hugged Fang Jifan's thigh tightly and burst into tears.

  Fang Jifan frowned and looked at him, feeling extremely guilty in his heart, but it was impossible for him to say such a thing, so he sighed deeply: "Master, I dare not do it, you can be my senior brother."

  Qi Jingtong's body trembled, what could he do, is this a joke?

  He shook his head, resolutely rejecting Fang Jifan's request.

   "Brother, how do students match? Teacher, don't joke, just let my wish come true. In this life, students will be oxen and horses, and serve the teacher."

  Fang Jifan sighed with his hands behind his back.

  Life...is really lonely.

   "Okay, since that's the case, Qi Jingtong, from now on, if you enter my door, you must live up to it."

  Qi Jingtong was overjoyed.

  This benefactor is worthy of worship.

  He doesn't dislike my background, and he treats me so politely. Compared with Brother Tang, he treats me with more sincerity.

Thinking of this, Qi Jingtong felt even warmer in his heart. Think about it, Senior Brother Tang and the others, which one is more noble than himself, but it is said that Senior Brother Xu Jing still jumped from the upstairs when he was getting started, and his mentor reluctantly agreed At that time, Senior Brother Xu was already a Gongsheng student, and he was a mere deputy of a thousand households.

But…

  Master...benevolence and righteousness.

  He entered the hall with Fang Jifan excitedly, solemnly performed the apprenticeship ceremony, even Shu Xiu was ready, and after offering Shu Xiu, he consciously stood behind Fang Jifan.

  Fang Jifan was sitting, he was standing, not polite at all, and quickly entered his role.

  Fang Jifan asked about his name, Shixian.

  Wen Yansheng came to see the ceremony at this time: "Your Majesty, Wen Yansheng, prefect of Ningbo, has met Lord Hou."

  Fang Jifan nodded to him: "I've heard about you too, you are a nice person."

"Where, where, I can't afford to be a good word. In front of Lord Hou's disciples, I am like the light of a firefly. I dare not compete with the sun and the moon. Today coincides with the meeting, and Lord Hou accepted a Disciple, I would like to congratulate you."

  Fang Jifan couldn't help being overjoyed, and asked lightly: "This time you came to Beijing to report on your work, why, what did you say to Your Majesty?"

   "Only said one thing." Wen Yansheng said.

   "I would like to hear more about it." Fang Jifan has a good impression of this prefect Wen. This guy has a calm and indifferent face. He will not be obedient on the surface because of his notoriety, but secretly have other emotions. He will not deliberately curry favor with others just because of his high status.

   "Eat!" Wen Yansheng said firmly.

   "..." Fang Jifan froze for a moment, suddenly he thought of his chicken, and then he remembered that he didn't seem to eat much of his chicken, and that **** Zhang Yanling ate all of it.

At last…

   Well, there is no end, because Fang Jifan is hungry.

"Instead of talking about eating, it's better to eat first. Since Wen Zhifu talked about eating in front of the imperial court, it can be seen that Wen Zhifu is a person who loves food very much. It just so happens that I am hungry, and you are hungry too. Why don't we eat first. "

  Wen Yansheng couldn't help but speak.

   "This way to the north, the food for the lower officials is not good, so why not let the lower officials show their shame and serve Master Hou."

   "..."

  Fang Jifan is already at a loss for words to this magistrate who is willing to volunteer to be a cook.

   Daming is so wonderful.

  …………

  Prefect Wen set up a table of wine and food.

   There are not many dishes, just three dishes and one soup.

  Fang Jifan took a sip, and suddenly felt that his taste buds were dancing.

Prefect Wen took a sip of rice wine first, and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, there is so much beef in Hou Ye's house. You must know that this beef must not be overcooked. Once it is fully cooked, the taste will be a bit old. You should cut it up." Cut it into small pieces, roll it in a hot pan, and put it on the pan immediately. If you can’t control the heat for a little bit, all previous efforts will be wasted. This beef has been seasoned too much, but it loses its flavor. On the contrary, this meaty smell is the most rare. Why? So, Master Hou, you can still enter."

  Fang Jifan kept nodding: "It's delicious."

  Looking sideways at Qi Jingtong, Qi Jingtong just swallowed, but didn't dare to put down his chopsticks.

  Fang Jifan said: "Eat."

  Qi Jingtong got his teacher's order, he was very hungry, and immediately started to gobble it up.

  Wen Yansheng shook his head and sighed: "You are so rude. To eat this beef, you need to take a sip of warm rice wine to rinse your mouth before eating. This warm wine is mixed with beef, and it is delicious in the world."

  Fang Jifan took a sip of the rice wine in a hurry, and suddenly said: "Why don't you use the rice wine as a condiment, put it in the beef and steam it?"

  Wen Yansheng was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he was happy: "Haha, using rice wine as a material, Lord Hou is really smart, like ghosts and gods. Not bad, you can try it next time."

  He was very happy, dancing with excitement.

   This meal, Fang Jifan's stomach was full.

  He suddenly felt a little depressed.

   What should I do in the future, it seems that I have become picky eaters.

  Thinking of the usual food again, it’s really pig food.

  Qi Jingtong was blushing when he ate, but he knew that his teacher liked to eat beef, so he tried his best not to eat it, and mostly chose the bamboo shoots on the side to eat, but even so, he ate happily.

  Wen Yansheng was in the midst of drinking, and Wen Yansheng happily touched his belly: "Finally, I had a good meal. It's really not easy for people to travel."

  Fang Jifan said with a smile: "I wonder how long Wen Zhifu will stay in the capital?"

  Wen Yansheng thought for a while: "It should take at least a month. Besides, I don't know if the imperial court will have new appointments. Everything is unknown."

  Fang Jifan said: "This Marquis really wants to ask Governor Wen a favor."

  Wen Yansheng looked at Fang Jifan: "Your Majesty invited me, I dare not do my best."

"You don't need to work hard." Fang Jifan said cheerfully: "There is only one thing to do, and that is to go to Xishan. There are many strange fruits and vegetables in Xishan, but... how to eat them, or how to cook them is more important. It's delicious, but it's a headache. It's great that Wen Zhifu is here. Wen Zhifu can try to eat those new ingredients and compile a recipe. When the time comes, When these foods were promoted, the prefect Wen played a vital role."

Wen Yansheng was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing: "This is the wish of the lower official in his life. Even if Lord Hou doesn't mention it, the lower official still wants to give it a try. I'm not bragging. I don't care if it's sweet and bitter, as long as I eat it. Those who cannot die, I, Wen Yansheng, can make them into delicious dishes."
