Then, Prince Suleiman's face was solemn: "Your Majesty, Xiao Wang received the express news from the country last night, which was extremely urgent. It was because his father was seriously ill and urgently urged Xiao Wang to set off and return home immediately."

After Prince Suleiman said this, Emperor Hongzhi seemed quite surprised because the news was a little sudden, so Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but wonder if this was an excuse.

But Fang Jifan didn't seem surprised.

Because in history, this Prince Suleiman inherited the throne roughly around this time.

This news is exactly the same as in history.

Emperor Hongzhi naturally would not reveal his thoughts, and a gentle look appeared on his face: "Since that's the case, I will not be able to keep you here. I have heard some anecdotes about you in the capital. It is said that you are a Confucian scholar and I hope that I will send some Confucian scholars to the Ottoman. I have followed the advice of Fang Qing's family. These two thousand Confucian scholars have already sent them in advance. Now that I heard that my father is seriously ill, I am very anxious. It would be better if I set off tomorrow, and I will prepare for you. Fortunately, since the Tatars surrendered to my Ming Dynasty, the journey westward has been smooth. My Ming Dynasty carriages can travel dozens of miles a day. Although this journey is thousands of miles a day, I think it is enough to make you return safely."

Prince Suleiman actually heard many rumors about Emperor Hongzhi from the Confucians.

For example... His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty favored treacherous ministers, for example... he changed the law of his ancestors.

But...Suleiman saw Emperor Hongzhi like this, but thought to himself that even if he was not a good emperor, he would be considered a good person.

But... a good monarch and a good man are contrary to each other. This is mostly the case in the history of the Ottomans and the Ming Dynasty.

He glanced at Emperor Hongzhi deeply, and then bowed deeply politely: "Thank you for your kindness, I will definitely pay you back in the future. As for business matters, Ottoman will welcome any caravans from the Ming Dynasty."

As he said that, he seemed to be in a hurry to deal with the matter before leaving, so he wanted to say goodbye.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "Jifan, you will send him tomorrow."

Fang Jifan nodded.

The next morning.

The convoy of the Ottoman princes was prepared, with five hundred elite guards, plus several Ottoman entourages, and a vast expedition to the post station.

The black green under Suleiman's eyes was very heavy. In fact, he had not slept all night and was planning to settle down in the Ottoman country after his father was seriously ill.

Fang Jifan was ordered to send him off and saluted Suleiman. Fang Jifan said, "Brother Su, we are destined to see you goodbye. I heard that your father is seriously ill, so please feel sorry for me."

Suleiman seemed very calm, and said, "A man has birth, old age, sickness and death. His father is just a call from heaven. When he comes to heaven, he will naturally have endless wealth. This time, he has worked hard for the Duke of Qi..."

"Don't call him Duke of Qi." Fang Jifan patted his shoulder, as if he was close to the elders: "You should call me brother."

This has already given this great emperor in history a lot of face. For ordinary people, Fang Jifan is called "Uncle or grandpa".

Seeing Fang Jifan's intimacy, Suleiman was also solemn and bowed to Fang Jifan: "Thank you Brother Fang, Brother Fang's kindness, I will never forget you. May I, Ottoman, be like you and my brothers, and always be in love with Qin and Jin, from now on, I will be like a country of brothers."

Fang Jifan couldn't help but complain in his heart, Qin and Jin were so kind... Qin State was almost beaten by Jin State later. What book did this Prince Suleiman read?

Fang Jifan said, "Although the world is great, I will see you again if you are destined to do so."

Suleiman clasped his fists: "Please take care of it."

Suleiman did not get on the car, but skillfully rode on the horse, and headed west towards the morning glow with the mighty carriage and horse.

…………

One month later.

Yumen Pass.

When you arrive here along the Hexi Corridor, you will inevitably be covered in yellow sand.

Compared with the comfortable and prosperous capital, this place... is really different.

"Water...the water is coming..."

A soldier hurriedly entered the crowded station with several large water bags.

This station is newly built.

After the Ming Dynasty regained the Hexi Corridor, it began to garrison troops from Yumen Pass to Lanzhou. The originally abandoned Yumen Pass was also re-opened. This inn was built after countless efforts.

Almost no one comes here.

But suddenly, a huge convoy came.

More than two thousand people, plus the soldiers escorting them, were so powerful that they were like covering the sky and the sun.

I heard that the water was coming.

The scholars who were lying on the ground or leaning on the wall and whispered suddenly became energetic.

The eyes were excited and the crowds were surging.

"Water, where is the water..."

"Ahem... Let me take a sip first..."

"Sir, do you want to rely on your seniority?"

In some places, water is more precious than gold, and for this saliva, it almost caused a stampede.

Chen Jingye was pushed away by someone in the crowd. He was already covered in dust and could not have the style of a great scholar.

He wanted to rush forward, but was pushed away by a few young and stronger people.

Chen Jingye coughed, and since he arrived at the Hexi Corridor, almost everyone felt that his throat was dry, as if he was on fire.

After a heart-wrenching cough, he supported his body, his eyes were resentful, and he said with a thumping foot: "Why is this? Why is this? Now we are in trouble here, we should have worked together and have a hard time. This time, we are still thousands of miles away from the Ottomans. What is ahead and what will tomorrow be like? Heaven knows it, the earth knows it, you don't know, I don't know. If we don't unite, we will die in the future. Let go, let go..."

The Confucian scholars hesitated and all looked at Chen Jingye silently.

Chen Jingye stepped out of the crowd, snatched the soldier's water bag, and shook it. There was a beautiful sound of sweet spring shaking inside.

Chen Jingye gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth and said, "We are scholars, scholars... If the great responsibilities of this man are given to him, he must first suffer his mind and mind, exhaust his muscles and bones, and starve his body... What is this? It's just water. Have we gentlemen lost all our culture for this mere drinking water? Tell me, tell me, tell me!"

All Confucian scholars: "..."

Chen Jingye laughed: "Haha...drink water, drink water...what is the use of drinking this water? There are sweet springs in the book, and this water...it's fine if you don't drink it!"

He stamped his feet, then threw the water bag to the ground.

Bang...

The water bag was dropped to the ground, and the transparent and clear sweet spring vented from the mouth of the water bag.

The water flow mixed in the mud and sand, making the land moisturized suddenly.

“…”

Then there is...silence.

Everyone was silent.

They looked at Chen Jingye silently.

At this time, Chen Jingye's heart was like waves rolling in his chest, with a stern face, and he held his hands behind his back and said, "Zi said..."

Speaking of this, someone suddenly interrupted Chen Jingye.

"My surname is Chen, you don't need to drink water, but you smash everyone's water. What did you teach us to drink?"

"I don't have water to drink today, this old dog..."

"Kill this dog to death."

The Confucian scholars who were still slow just now were excited by the stimulation of these sounds and rushed forward.

The solemn expression on Chen Jingye's face gradually disappeared, replaced by panic and shock.

I saw countless people rushing towards him with anger, then surrounded Chen Jingye and then fucked and fucked. Soon, Chen Jingye's hissing sound came.

...

In the chaotic and rough scene, the accompanying guards used all their strength and finally dragged Chen Jingye out.

Chen Jingye was already exhausted at this moment. He tried hard to open his eyes, but unfortunately, these swollen eyes, like kiwis, could not hold on to the line no matter what.

He was stuttering and a guard poured water on him.

After drinking water, he suddenly became much more energetic, as if his body had finally injected some strength.

A medical student cured his injury and said, "I can't go with you after leaving Yumen Pass. I'm injured. I'll take care of myself along the way. I'll prepare some medicine for you... Oh, and..."

The medical student took out a book very seriously, looked at it, and said, "You are Mr. Chen Jingye, Mr. Chen. Master mentioned you and said that he had been acquainted with you for a long time and had always wanted to make a friend with you. Mr. Chen has a son named Chen Jianning. This person has been admitted to school. Don't misunderstand. Master is not a threat, but... He has always known that Mr. Chen has a great talent and will definitely become Suleiman's minister in the future. Master has a letter here, which he will tell Mr. Chen to read it now, or read it after leaving Yumen Pass. Remember, this letter was written by Master Chen, so Mr. Chen might as well read it."

"You...who is your master..."

Chen Jingye still seemed weak. When he spoke, he leaked his air in his mouth, but his front teeth were knocked down and he asked with difficulty.

"Duke of Qi..."

Duke of Qi...

Although Chen Jingye was covered in bruises and was in great pain at this moment, he couldn't help but tremble when he heard these three names.

This... this dog thing, he...what he wants to do.

Isn't it enough for him to harm me? If it weren't for him, why would it be like this?

At this moment, Chen Jingye wanted to jump up and curse.

Unfortunately, at this time, he had already lost the strength to move.

After explaining the matter, the medical student turned around and left without saying anything.

What stayed in Chen Jingye's arms was a letter.

…………

In the cabinet of the capital.

Liu Jian had no temper at all about the Confucian scholar's return to the west this time.

This was the first time he had seen such a gameplay, which was really amazing.

But... if you do this, are you afraid of this Shilin...

Oh, by the way, Liu Jian seemed to have forgotten that at this moment, the Shilin Confucian scholars who led the Qing Notice had almost caught up in one go, and there seemed to be few fish that had missed the net...uh...naturally... there were no more Shilin Confucian scholars.

"Report, report..."

But at this moment, a clerk stepped in quickly and said with a breath: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu... There was a hurry to report from the West Mountain... His Highness the Crown Prince... said he wanted to report the good news."
