Zhu Xu smiled, reached out to take it, and pretended to say politely: "If you have free time in the future, you will definitely bother me."

Liu Yin looked at Zhu Xu seriously, with a smile on his lips.

Others kept looking at Zhu Xu, curious about his identity and origin.

The person who came to report the news was also wearing a Confucian shirt and sat in the head of Mao Pijiang. He seemed to have a low status and said impatiently: "Just just came from the capital, Wei Zhongxian and some other criminal remnants of the convicted nobles, including the Duke of Wei, carried out a rebellion. Thousands of rebels attacked the capital, and were all wiped out in less than half an hour. The capital had been initially pacified. By the way, the emperor ordered the king to supervise the country and eliminate the rebellion."

"Duke of Wei..."

Everyone couldn't help but feel a sudden shock. Duke of Wei is not an ordinary noble. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there are only the Xu family and the Zhang family have two dukes. The Duke of the Zhang family was still the emperor who was granted the title of the current emperor during the Chongzhen period!

The Duke of Wei has guarded the South and Beijing for generations, and his status is second only to that of the British Duke of the North and Beijing. He actually raised troops to rebel, which makes people feel chilled when he thinks about it.

Zhu Xu naturally knew it earlier, holding the wine glass, and felt emotional.

Although he "suppressed" the nobles, he only controlled their privileges, land, military power, etc., they seemed to have suffered a lot and were "bullied" by the court, but they still had far more than ordinary people. They were rich and could not be frozen or hungry.

However, it is easy to give and difficult to obtain. The court takes back their privileges, and they feel that they can't survive and the glory is gone. In order to return to the past, they will do whatever it takes!

"Brother Zhu, what do you think about Duke Wei?"

Everyone was immersed in this shocking news. Gong Dingzi suddenly looked up at Zhu Xu, and said with a very eager look.

Gu Hengbo and Gong Dingzi were husband and wife, and when they heard this, they looked at Zhu Xu and said with a smile; "Mr. Zhu, I guess he can express different opinions, right?"

Zhu Xu was turning the teacup, smiling, and not speaking.

He had already said enough, and if he continued to say it, it would easily scare them.

Seeing that Zhu Xu was silent, Liu Yin turned sideways slightly and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Brother Zhu has unique insights and looks like a torch. Please give me some advice."

As soon as Liu Yin finished speaking, Chen Zilong frowned. He didn't like Liu Yin to look at other men more, let alone look up higher. He looked at Zhu Xu with a calm expression and said, "Brother Zhu is young, and he must be from the origin of his family. I wonder if he has heard anything?"

As soon as Chen Zilong finished speaking, Liu Yin frowned slightly. Chen Zilong's words attributed the views of Brother Zhu to "family learning", which was an insult.

Zhu Xu couldn't tell that Chen Zilong was jealous, but he didn't like to be jealous. He smiled and said, "The origin of family education has come here. I'm so happy to meet you today. Next time I'm here, I'll invite you to talk about it."

"Brother Zhu is leaving?" Gong Dingzi was stunned. He hoped that Zhu Xu could say more. The advancement in the officialdom was in the examination room and outside the examination room, and it was often more useful outside the examination room.

Zhu Xu had already stood up and raised his hand and said, "The east of the mountain is not peaceful recently. I don't allow me to stay outside for too long at home. I'll say goodbye."

They were all chance meetings. Even if they wanted to chat with Zhu Xu, they would still talk to each other very deeply. They stood up politely and raised their hands and said, "Brother Zhu, I will see you later in the future."

Zhu Xu looked around and turned around and left gracefully.

As soon as Zhu Xu left, everyone sat down one after another. Chen Zilong turned to look at Gong Dingzi and said, "Xiaosheng, you have been in Ji Nan for a long time. Do you know which family does this Mr. Zhu come from?"

The Zhu family was the master of the Ming Dynasty, but aside from the royal family, there were only a handful of names and surnames. They didn’t know which two characters Zhu Xu’s “Mu Yu” were. If they could see the characters, they might be able to speculate. After all, the five elements of the Zhu family are still very famous.

Gong Dingzi thought for a while, shook his head and said, "If it were a name and surname, I would have guessed that Brother Zhu's reputation was not obvious, so he would not have come out to walk around often."

Everyone nodded silently. Now, anyone who has some talented people is trying hard to spread it around and gain a reputation as a "talented man". Only in this way can they spread the world, otherwise they will become "destroyed man".

Liu Yin also thought for a while, looked up at everyone and said, "What do you think about Brother Zhu's words?"

Zhu Xu's long comments actually mean that he was defeated by "Wei Zhongxian was executed and the East Factory was abolished". Nothing else could be confirmed.

Gong Dingzi continued as soon as he heard this: "I don't think that Brother Zhu was heard by others. What he said is reasonable and evidence, and it is indeed possible that it is done by the emperor today."

Mao Pijiang was a spectator for a long time, and now he became serious and said, "If this is true, we should go back immediately and prepare early."

The other people's expressions were slightly calm. They all rely on their families to be able to do this today, so naturally they cannot cause any trouble at home. If the emperor really wanted to reorganize the land system, then these gentry were the first to be the brunt and would never follow in the footsteps of Zhili!

Chen Zilong frowned when he heard this, especially looking at Liu Yin's thoughtful expression, his eyes flashed with disgust, and he said with a smile: "Don't think too much. Wei Zhongxian and others in the capital were not as serious as the brother Zhu said. He might have just learned the news earlier and showed off his tricks."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then looked at each other. It was really possible. After all, they were just ordinary people, so it was normal for them to get the news later. If Zhu Muyu had some family background or someone in the capital, it would be normal to know the news in advance.

But they are all talented men who are famous all over the world, and are just fooled?

After a while, even Gong Dingzi, who still had a lot of confidence in Zhu Xu, was hesitant. After all, if the young master Zhu was just making random guesses and he really flattered him as he did, he would have to pat the horse's legs.

Seeing that his words made everyone have such expressions, Chen Zilong felt very happy. He let out a slight depression and turned to Liu Yin and said, "Ruoshi, it's getting late. Let's go. We have to prepare for it before we can enter Beijing."

Liu Yin is not a person who follows the crowd. He listened to Chen Zilin's words and nodded, "Brother Chen goes first, and I have to buy some things."

Chen Zilong didn't think much, and stood up with a smile and said, "Everyone, say goodbye, let's meet again in the capital another day."

People here either want to go to the capital or go to Yingtian to take the exam, obviously they are planning to go to the capital.

After being disturbed by Zhu Xu, the group of people were all in a state of mind and could not calm down, so they had to end up early.

After everyone scattered, Liu Yin ordered people to pack up their things and called the maid and said, "Go and find out where that young master Zhu has gone."

The maid responded quickly and trotted away.

Zhu Xu slowly wandered around the yard with his hands behind his back, and Cao Bianjiao followed him.

"It turns out that this is how the talented men and beautiful women in our dynasty held literary conferences..." Zhu Xu said with a smile. In his impression, literary conferences competed with articles and poems, but he did not expect that discussing current affairs was the theme.

Cao Bianjiao didn't speak, his expression was as normal.

The court repeatedly prohibited scholars and officials from visiting prostitutes and staying at prostitutes, but these people were openly polite and honest with famous prostitutes, which was very lively. They really regarded the laws of the court as a joke and did not care about them at all.

Zhu Xu walked slowly with his hands behind his back, smiling at the corner of his mouth.

These scholars are still young, with their ideas of "traditionality" and are in line with the court, or the current scholar-official class. They all hope to improve on the original basis. The method cannot be described as good or bad. The purpose is to prosper the life of the Ming Dynasty and plan to "revival".

But in Zhu Xu's view, these methods are either deadly poisons or accelerated the disease and cannot solve the problem.

It is undoubtedly Zhu Xu's excessiveness to make them break out of the "historical limitations". He still needs to rely on the Royal Military and Political College. These students learn new textbooks, have fewer Confucian things and more "science". Perhaps it can make the Ming Dynasty more "pragmatic", close to reality, not so arrogant and boastful.

After walking for a while, Zhu Xu suddenly said, "What do you think about the abolition of the East Factory?"

There were only Zhu Xu and Cao Bianjiao here. Cao Bianjiao naturally knew that he was asking him. After thinking for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, the East Factory is cruel and bad, and the world hates it, so it should be abolished."

Zhu Xu's expression remained unchanged and he didn't speak.

Although he now has many ways to check and balance the court officials, strictly speaking, they are all checks and balances between court officials and do not belong to the emperor. The Jinyiwei turned to the secret and could not play an open deterrent role.

The abolition of the East Factory was a peace of mind for Zhu Xu to the Cabinet and the six ministries, and a concession. From the perspective of original intention or national stability, the East Factory was essential.

‘Six doors, Wang Yuyang…’

Zhu Xu slowly slapped the fan in his right hand and nodded secretly.

"Brother Zhu." Suddenly, Liu Yin emerged from a small path and raised his hand and smiled at Zhu Xu.

She was still wearing men's clothes, but the hat was not there, and her ponytail was draped behind her, her eyebrows and eyes were as stars, her outline was clear and poetic as picturesque. She was not as delicate as the south, but rather a heroic attitude.

A dress of men's clothing and a pretty face make you look unique.

Zhu Xu was stunned, smiled and raised his hand and said, "Ms. Liu."

Liu Yin came over and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "My little sister's name is Rushi. All friends call me this, and Brother Zhu can also call me that."

‘Is this classified as a friend?’

Zhu Xu touched his nose and said, "Liu...ru, I don't know what he was trying to stop me?"

Liu Rushi came over and stood side by side with Zhu Xu. She was a little shorter than Zhu Xu and said, "My little sister still has a few questions to ask Brother Zhu. Please take the liberty to bother me, please don't blame me."

Zhu Xu nodded slightly. Liu Rushi was more sparse than ordinary men. He raised his hand and signaled to walk and said, "Even if you ask, I will tell you everything I know and say everything."

Liu Rushi followed Zhu Xu, thought for a while, looked up at Zhu Xu's side face and said, "I wonder what Zhu Xu thinks about this rebellion in the capital?"

Zhu Xu laughed, opened the fan suddenly and said, "Who is the emperor today? How can even a eunuch cannot control it? It's just to deliberately give him a chance."

Liu Rushi frowned slightly and said, "I deliberately give him a chance? Please tell me clearly, Brother Zhu."

Zhu Xu walked slowly, and he wanted to ask someone to say something, but he felt uncomfortable all the time he kept pressing on his heart. Liu Rushi was suitable, and he walked and thought about it, "The root of this is relatively deep. Since the current emperor ascended the throne, great moves have been made, including salt administration, royal family, nobles, military affairs, Nanzhili restructuring, cracking down on party struggles, eliminating the Donglin Party, and a series of new regulations and new laws, which have seriously impacted the entire Ming Dynasty... The wealthy class, the people in power in these classes were swept aside, piled up and there was no way to release it, but the fierce reform has continued. Over time, the lid cannot be suppressed sooner or later. Therefore, this time it seems to be an unexpected rebellion, but it is inevitable that the old forces will counterattack the new policy."

With such in-depth analysis, Liu Rushi and the people she came into contact with naturally could not have imagined. He began to think about it as he heard it, his brows became tighter and tighter. After a while, he said, "Brother Zhu, is this a good or bad?"

Zhu Xu turned his head to look at her, and when she saw her face solemn, she couldn't help but smile and said, "What? I worry about the country and the people, and I'm worried that if the emperor continues like this, it will collapse sooner or later?"

Liu Rushi really thought so, and many people even kept worrying that the emperor and the court seemed to want to complete all innovations overnight. Tai Chi was too fast and it was easy to get into trouble.

"My little sister is stupid," Liu Rushi stopped and looked at Zhu Xu seriously and said, "I can't guess what the emperor is going to do today. I wonder what Brother Zhu has to think?"

‘Not only you can’t guess it, no one in the world can guess it…’

Zhu Xu shook his head secretly, saying that some words cannot be said to outsiders, or even revealed. Fortunately, only Cao Bianjiao and Liu Rushi are here.

Zhu Xu thought to himself and tried to avoid accidents, saying: "In fact, it is not difficult to guess. From the emperor's series of innovative techniques, we can see that he believes that the Ming Dynasty has been corrupt and cannot be redeemed. It needs to be completely broken, rebuilt in the ruins, and rise in the rubble. The so-called "no destruction or establishment..."

"Not destruction, no one can establish..."

Liu Rushi's face changed. She understood and thought more.

Indeed, the court's repeated new policies in the past have nothing to do with the current gentry. This time, the gentry in Northern Zhili was almost wiped out and it must be reshuffled. I am afraid that it is true that Brother Zhu said in front of me that the emperor would break down all old forces and establish a new Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Xu looked at Liu Rushi's face and smiled.

No matter when these words reach the ears of those ministers, he will never recognize them even if he beats them to death.

If they know about it, they will go crazy!

It will scare many people!

Liu Rushi thought for a while, his face gradually calmed down. He looked at Zhu Xu and said, "My little sister agrees with the emperor's approach. Daqing is really corrupt. Instead of surviving the irresistible, it is better to break it and then establish it and revive it again!"

Zhu Xu looked slightly shocked. Liu Rushi was really so bold? You know, every time the adults in the imperial city knew that he had big moves, they were frightened and tried their best to stop him. How could a woman have such insight?

Seeing Zhu Xu's expression strange, Liu Rushi smiled and said, "My younger sister is reckless, but this is indeed a foolish opinion. Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the previous dynasty has only been a hundred years, the Song dynasty has only been three hundred years, the Tang dynasty has not been enough for four hundred years, and the Ming Dynasty has been more than two hundred years, and the chaotic times have emerged. If we do not have the courage to survive with broken arms and the determination to scrape bones to cure poison, the country's fortune will inevitably be unsustainable. The world will be in war, the people will be in turmoil, and the people will live in poverty..."
