Emperor Jing pondered for a moment, dismissed his attendants, and sighed softly: "There are only you and me here, the emperor and his subject, so I will speak directly about some things."
"I heard that there are many rumors about the prince in Banshanfang."
"Some people claim that the prince arbitrarily interferes with the lives of the people, causing a lot of dissatisfaction. Do you know about this?"
Fang Zhengyi said honestly, "I know, but I only know one thing. I generally don't want to interfere too much in what Your Highness does."
"Whether it's right or wrong, Your Highness has to do it yourself to feel it."
"If you just follow me and listen to me talk about some truths, then there is no point."
"As the saying goes, teaching by example, Your Majesty must have let me teach the prince because I am good at hands-on work."
"Otherwise, there are many people in the court who are smarter and more knowledgeable than me. How can it be my turn to teach the prince?"
Emperor Jing glanced at Fang Zhengyi in surprise.
I didn't expect you to be so self-aware!
"Yes, you said it very well. I think so too. The prince lacks experience and studying is not his forte."
"So I have no choice but to choose you."
“........”
The imperial study fell into silence.
Fang Zhengyi's face turned into a donkey's.
What do you mean by "resorting to such a bad idea"? Am I that bad?
Emperor Jing was also extremely embarrassed, and felt that he had said something wrong. He drank some tea to cover it up before he said, "I actually admire you very much!"
"ah."
"......"
"Don't be sarcastic in front of me!" Emperor Jing slammed the table, and Fang Zheng perked up.
Then Emperor Jing picked up a memorial from the table and threw it at Fang Zhengyi.
"Look! What good things did the prince do in Banshanfang!"
Fang Zheng unfolded the memorial and read it carefully twice.
It was almost the same as the information he got from Zhang Laoliu.
But the extent of it seems to be getting worse.
After closing the memorial, Fang Zhengyi said calmly, "I have finished reading it."
Emperor Jing frowned slightly: "Banshanfang is nominally managed by the Crown Prince, but I know you are the hero behind it."
"Now you let him take over, and he caused such a big mess right after taking over. How will it end in the future?"
"Everything recorded here is simply absurd!"
"Dividing a kitchen into three rooms, each with a different function, and using different cutting boards to cut vegetables...absurd!"
"The imperial kitchen in the palace isn't that troublesome! Can someone be killed by cooking with just a chopping board?!"
"What on earth does he want to do? Let's end this matter before it gets out of hand. If people find out, I'm afraid the royal family will lose all face!"
Gave birth to such an unfortunate thing.
He messed around in the capital and did some incredible things.
Emperor Jing was already extremely troubled by this, but fortunately the time was still short and there was still a chance to stop it in time.
Although Emperor Jing completely disagreed with Li Yuanzhao's approach, Fang Zhengyi was still very optimistic about him.
As far as he knew, the messy practices in Banshanfang were not entirely Li Yuanzhao's idea.
It was mostly the people below who were causing trouble, but they were all following Li Yuanzhao's wishes, so no one cared.
Fang Zhengyi found these practices quite surprising and somewhat similar to modern management.
But it is obviously out of place in this era.
The people are too fragile and defenseless and cannot withstand such ordeal.
The complaints are understandable.
But Fang Zhengyi had no intention of interfering. Firstly, he didn't want to discourage his enthusiasm, and secondly, he wanted to teach him a lesson.
After a moment's contemplation, he said, "Your Majesty, I think there are still many merits in your Highness's move. It is not appropriate to interfere. It is better to try to let him continue to do it."
"Your Highness is young and full of vigor. I'm afraid he won't be convinced by just verbal instruction. He won't learn his lesson unless he is frustrated."
Emperor Jing frowned, "According to what you said, we're just going to let him do whatever he wants and bring disaster to the people?!"
"Your Majesty, you are too kind! Forgive me for being so bold, but Your Highness is the crown prince. It is better to make mistakes now than in the future."
"If I have to intervene every time a mistake is made, I'm afraid there will be even bigger problems in the future!"
Hearing this, Emperor Jing leaned back dejectedly: "You are right..."
"I am just worried. Yuanzhao's performance is sometimes good and sometimes bad... I only have this one son, and Dajing also has this one prince."
"If I had other princes, this rebellious son wouldn't be so rebellious!"
Fang Zhengyi licked his lips.
Good boy! Your Majesty wants to open a secondary account?
I gave birth to a lot of girls and only one boy. The probability is also...
Emperor Jing leaned back in his chair, a look of reminiscence appeared on his face, and he suddenly laughed: "Forget it, why am I telling you this."
"You have your own way. No matter what, you must keep an eye on him!"
"Let him be a good emperor, and I will be at ease."
Fang Zheng hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is still young! The prince is so outstanding because of your Majesty's teaching by example! I just did a little work!"
How is that rebellious son like me at all!
Emperor Jing glared at him and said, "Stop flattering me! If I ask you to teach me well, then teach me well."
"Do you know how many officials in the court have taught the prince before? Do you know how much pressure I am under if I ask you to teach the prince alone?!"
"Take a look! Those are all memorials impeaching you!"
After saying this, Emperor Jing pointed to the corner of the wall.
Fang Zheng looked quickly and saw a small pile of memorials on the ground.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but take a breath.
