Fang Jifan always convinces people with virtue.

In this regard, he always makes his disciples and grandchildren feel his benevolence and righteousness.

The concept of benevolence and righteousness... is carried out from beginning to end, and only then will disciples be effective.

Fang Jifan was filled with emotion when he thought that he had done another good deed at this moment, saved Suleiman's reputation, and could be regarded as worthy of this old man.

Some people make meritorious deeds by killing people.

But what Fang Jifan relied on... was saving lives.

One will be successful, but Fang Jifan despises such a blood-stained contribution. He is willing to help others, because saving people's lives is called greatness.

Wang Yi rushed to the deep palace without any hesitation, Suleiman was distraught and at a loss what to do.

How could he have imagined that... this beautiful city, with tens of thousands of forbidden soldiers, would be gone anyway.

When he learned from others that it was actually Li Zheng and others who offered the city, he spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

So, he laughed wildly, and cried loudly. Now, the ancestors' country, blood, and countless calculations have disappeared, and everything has disappeared without a trace.

Seeing him yelling, Wang Yi couldn't restrain him, so he stepped forward, slapped him down, and shouted angrily, "Shut up."

In the eyes of others, the man in front of him is the king of subjugation, the former Ottoman emperor. But in Wang Yi's eyes, what a thing!

The slap went on, but Suleiman was stunned.

Wang Yi gritted his teeth and said, "From today onwards, you are called Fang Thanksgiving, and you have received mercy from your benefactor, so I will send you to Huangjin Island, come and change his clothes, and send him to the pier immediately, remember, this matter must not be publicized."

There will be no more Suleiman in the world.

There is only one person named Fang Thanksgiving.

The reason why it is named Fang is probably to better integrate into the Golden Continent.

The word "gratitude" is the grace of not killing, and it is also right to commemorate Fang Jifan's kindness.

Two days later, a ship had set off and entered the Mediterranean Sea.

And here, this city that has stood for thousands of years has ushered in its new owner.

Li Zheng and others... are still in use.

Although they are always infuriating, Fang Jifan always wants to step forward and kick them a few times.

But it has to be said that in terms of stabilizing people's hearts, their contribution is great.

Monarchs and ministers, father and son, the king guides the ministers, the father guides the son...benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness, gentleness, respectfulness and thrift. After the Ming army broke through Istanbul and designated it as Xijing, the former Ottoman land, except for the occupied area, All the rest of Kasha had to submit one after another. In the past ten years, Confucian scholars who spread Confucianism naturally took advantage of this opportunity and played a huge role.

They quickly established a classmate, teacher-student relationship, and a tight network of relationships in the local area. Relying on these networks, and relying on the rule of the Ming army, they can determine their local superiority.

Once they have formed an advantage, they will immediately ensure the existence of such an advantage through marriage and other methods.

In this way... reading is not just about learning Han Chinese culture, nor is it about reading the Four Books and Five Classics.

Because of their local advantages, they naturally banded together and continued to push up the status of scholars, so... spread the idea that all things are inferior and only reading is high. And because of the ladder of imperial examinations, they obtained more privileges than others, so... they began to collude with local officials early on, and by virtue of the privileges brought by their fame, they began to encroach on the land and make a fortune.

They gained reputation, interests, and a tight network of relationships, and even gained the right to speak in the Ottoman state capitals.

Then at this time...they have become masters.

They are like the roots of old trees, deeply rooted in Ottoman.

Naturally... all over Ottoman... the atmosphere began to change.

Only by reading can one change one's circumstances, only by reading... can one enter their circle, and only by reading these four books and five classics, and by reading the way of the monarch and ministers, can one become a superior person.

Osman had already formed a new reading craze.

People are the most realistic, it is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Not only the old nobles are crazy about reading, even the richer people are also starting to read.

They speak Chinese to each other.

Repay the grace of the king with a full mouth, establish a heart for the world, establish a life for the living and the people, and inherit the knowledge of the past.

Actually...at this moment...such a person...has gradually become not much different from the Han people.

The most frightening thing is that this group of scholars begins to expand. Once their living habits and language are different from ordinary people, they will naturally...begin to distinguish between noble and inferior.

Chinese has naturally become an elegant language, and those who cannot speak it are no different from lowly slaves.

The Four Books and Five Classics are the way of a sage, and those who don't learn... are no different from pigs and dogs.

Fang Jifan sometimes...actually admires these Confucian scholars. In peaceful times, they can always quickly adjust themselves to meet the needs of new rulers and struggle to survive... Their adaptability and survival ability are amazing.

At present... For the imperial court, the most important thing in the entire Ottoman homeland is to educate and win people's hearts, and this group of Confucian scholars headed by Li Zheng happens to be in harmony with the imperial court.

Ting hit it off. They are tacit to each other.

So... the decree came down.

In addition to the establishment of Xijing in Osman's old place, thirteen provinces were established at the same time. What was implemented... was the old laws of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty. Almost these old laws were copied like gourds and ladles.

Li Zheng worshiped as the supervisor of Xijing Guozijian, and the rest were given titles.

In order to attract a large number of officials, the imperial court, in addition to continuing the imperial examinations in Suleiman's period, added Enke twice in a row to recruit talents.

Xijing and the thirteen provinces implemented a sea ban policy.

Of course... this is only temporarily aimed at the people here, the Four Seas Trading Company can still send ships to trade in the Mediterranean Sea and along the coasts of various straits.

After this battle...

The prince is still temporarily guarding Xijing.

But Fang Jifan got up and returned to Beijing to reply.

On the way back, I learned of a railway from Yumenguan to Xijing... The imperial court has already started planning, and along the way, people have begun to conduct terrain surveys.

When Fang Jifan returned to Beijing, when he saw Zhu Houzhao again, Zhu Houzhao's face was a little more calm.

A person... I have had enough fun and trouble, and the rest is just loneliness.

Zhu Houzhao calmed down.

There are too many things in the world to deal with.

The responsibility of the emperor has become extraordinarily heavy.

In addition to the need for the emperor to dispose of the newly opened territory, with the implementation of the new policy of the two capitals and fourteen provinces, the imperial court has increasingly discovered that the original system cannot carry out effective management at all.

For example, in the prosperity of business, the imperial court must establish an effective charter to manage it.

Then, the imperial court had to set up a new bureau of commerce.

But because of the great importance of the Bureau of Commerce, the minister leading this department must not be an ordinary person, and the grade needs to be high enough, even... to be on the same level as the six ministers.

The increase in commercial tax has also brought about a huge problem, that is, the difference between commercial tax and agricultural tax is that there are many kinds of activities of merchants, so commercial tax must be collected according to different situations, and in order to ensure If commercial taxes can be collected, it will inevitably require a large number of tax collectors, so that the number of tax collectors exceeds one hundred thousand.

How can such a huge taxation system be placed under the Ministry of Household Affairs, so a taxation bureau has to be established, which is of great importance to taxation, and the minister of the taxation bureau naturally needs a minister to preside over it.

So...the imperial court added 19 bureaus, each carrying out its own affairs with the original six bureaus.

As the son of heaven, Zhu Houzhao clearly felt that the number of memorials had increased by more than ten times compared to when his father was there.

With such a huge memorial, even the cabinet began to feel heavy.

Not only that... and because the affairs involved in various ministries and bureaus have become more and more detailed and professional, it is no longer as simple as the original disaster situation, and ordering disaster relief.

The memorials sent by some ministries and bureaus, as a cabinet scholar, are so blinded that they can't understand...

After all...too professional.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was facing such a situation, and he was so devastated that he scratched his head all day long.

Even if he is as smart as him and willing to work hard, he still finds out that among the myriad of things, all of them are extremely important, but none of them...he can't do his best.

Even... Zhu Houzhao felt that, not to mention being an emperor, even if he was divided into ten emperors, he might not be able to cope with such a heavy workload.

As for the cabinet... It is even more bitter. I have asked for orders several times, asking for the addition of cabinet bachelors, but in fact... it is still a drop in the bucket.

Seeing Fang Jifan, Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed and said, "Old Fang, you came just in time. If you don't come back again, I will decree to give you the throne of emperor."

Fang Jifan: "..."

You just came back, Your Majesty... you want to kill me again?
