Chapter 112 Zhu Cijiong, Director of the Suzaku Division!
Chapter 112 Zhu Cijiong, Chief of the Vermillion Bird Division!
Emperor Chongzhen felt that what Lin Fan said was reasonable, but he also felt that there was something wrong with this matter.
Just as he was about to express his doubts, Lin Fan's heartbeat rang out again.
"I hope this reason can be passed through. The existence of this gambling house must have certain disadvantages for the stable development of the Ming Dynasty!"
"However, what the Ming Dynasty lacks most now is money. Only with money can we carry out construction. When the construction of the Ming Dynasty reaches a certain level, we will integrate the entertainment city again and set up a casino specifically in the Ming Dynasty!"
"From now on, gambling will only be allowed in casinos, but not elsewhere. This way, people in need can be gathered together to the maximum extent, and it will be easier to manage!"
Lin Fan thought in his heart that Chongzhen had completely eliminated all doubts.
What he is most worried about is that when the entertainment city rises, more people from all walks of life will gather together, which will have a negative impact on the stability of society.
But if one casino is eventually built and entertainment cities are canceled elsewhere, then this hidden danger can be perfectly solved.
"Well, what you said makes sense. It is very suitable for the imperial court to earn this money!"
Emperor Chongzhen said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, I have made an agreement with them to give you 20% of the profits, and they will also guarantee that they will no longer engage in loan sharking business!"
Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
“So best!”
Chongzhen said with satisfaction.
"Hehe! You are so satisfied with giving you 20%. What would you think if I told you that I would get 60%?"
Lin Fan chuckled in his heart.
Creak!
Chongzhen was completely dumbfounded and clenched his fists. This Lin Fan actually only gave himself 20% and kept 60%. This is too dark!
Chongzhen really wanted to tell Lin Fan that he already knew what he was thinking, but after weighing the pros and cons, Chongzhen decided to endure it.
After all, it would be most beneficial to him to be able to hear Lin Fan's inner voice without anyone noticing. If he said it himself, Lin Fan would be on guard and he would not be able to hear the truth in the future.
"Your Majesty! You! How can you indulge him like this?"
Queen Zhou was anxious.
"Father, our Ming Dynasty has explicitly prohibited gambling houses. Father should ban this matter instead of condoning it!"
Zhu Cijiong also spoke.
Chongzhen said solemnly: "In extraordinary times, extraordinary things are done. Now the Ming Dynasty is full of waste and waiting for prosperity. It is the time when there is a shortage of money. Get the money in your hands first, and we will talk about the next things later."
Emperor Chongzhen's words silenced Empress Zhou and Zhu Cijiong. Empress Zhou couldn't help but cry when she thought that her eldest son's life and death were unknown and she was being bullied by Lin Fan.
Lin Fan walked up to Zhu Cijiong, pinched Zhu Cijiong's little face, and said, "The third prince is indeed a talented person. This little face is extremely white and tender."
"You! Get away!"
Zhu Cijiong was furious and was going to kick Lin Fan.
Lin Fan stood there and was kicked by him. However, he had the Seventy-Two Shaolin Skills, the golden bell shield to protect his body. Zhu Cijiong kicked him over and fell to the ground, covering his feet.
"Ah! My feet!"
Zhu Cijiong yelled.
Lin Fan said: "Your Majesty, the third prince's body is too weak. Why don't you send him to our Jinyi Guards? I will teach him some martial arts. At the same time, he can also practice more in the Jinyi Guards."
.”
Zhu Cijiong was only twelve years old and had a good heart. Lin Fan planned to start a prince training program so that Zhu Cijiong would gradually worship him.
Furthermore, if he lets him know that he is his brother, Zhu Cijiong will give up his dream of becoming emperor and assist him instead.
By helping him as Prince Zhu Cijiong, he will be able to stabilize the situation of the Ming Dynasty faster in the future.
At the same time, this was also for Emperor Chongzhen to see, letting him know that when he became emperor in the future, he would not harm Zhu Cijiong, but would reuse him.
"You! What did you do to my Jiong'er! You bastard, get out of here!"
When Queen Zhou saw Zhu Cijiong lying on the ground screaming, she hurriedly leaned down to help Zhu Cijiong.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard that Lin Fan wanted Zhu Cijiong to join the Imperial Guard and teach him martial arts, he suddenly beamed with joy and said, "Queen, I think Lin Fan's proposal is good!"
"Jiong'er is usually spoiled and pampered. It's time for him to sharpen himself. Entering the Jinyi Guard can just temper him."
"Your Majesty! Those Jin Yiwei are all doing hard work. How old is Jiong'er? If there is a bad guy in there, how can I live?"
Queen Zhou cried and said.
She was worried that Zhu Cijiong would end up like Zhu Cixiang if he entered Jinyiwei, so she would not let him go.
"Queen, don't worry about this. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the Jinyi Guards now. Your Majesty has 50,000 personal guards in his hands. The third prince has come to my Jinyi Guards. I will temporarily incorporate him into the Suzaku Division as the head of the department, and then give him to Suzaku.
There are two thousand people in charge!"
"I will teach him everything. As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, I naturally have to uphold the ancestral teachings. The emperor guards the country, and the king dies in the country. Without martial arts, this is not possible."
Lin Fan spoke every word and every sentence made sense.
Even Queen Zhou couldn't refuse. Chongzhen trusted Lin Fan very much and said: "Queen, it's time for Jiong'er to have some experience. Please agree to Lin Fan and let him join the Jinyi Guard."
Queen Zhou nodded helplessly. Zhu Cijiong was still lying on the ground, and the pain in his ankle made him unable to stand up.
Lin Fan looked at Zhu Cijiong and said: "Third Prince, after the morning court tomorrow, I will appear at the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen, and I will select two thousand people for you."
"From now on, the security of the Ming Dynasty will be left to you."
Zhu Cijiong looked at Lin Fan and gritted his teeth, while Lin Fan just smiled. This kid hated him to the core of his bones.
After the morning court session on the second day, Lin Fan went to the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen. Sure enough, Zhu Cijiong was there. All the Jinyi guards from Beizhen Fusi gathered around Zhu Cijiong and treated him respectfully.
Obviously, Emperor Chongzhen must have arranged something in advance, otherwise, the Jin Yiwei of Beizhen Fusi would not be so polite to him.
"Master Lin! You are finally here! His Highness the Third Prince has been waiting here for a long time!"
A Jin Yiwei came forward and said with a smile.
Lin Fan walked over and said: "From now on, the third prince will be the head of the Suzaku Division of Jinyiwei. You can select 2,000 people from the Fusi people in Beizhen to join the Suzaku Division!"
"Yes! Sir!"
The Jinyi Guards of Beizhen Fusi hurriedly went to take care of it. Lin Fan walked up to Zhu Cijiong, put his big hand on his head, and said: "Boy, you must be obedient from now on, or you will be severely reprimanded by me!"
