Ma Du was surprised and hurriedly asked, "I heard that Mr. had a disease a few days ago, could it be that he has some terminal illness?" ”

"Don't be afraid of terminal illness, Ma Hou has the ability to live and die and be cured!"

"Where do I have such great ability, but I can still give it a try, I don't know where Mr. Liu is uncomfortable!"

Liu Ji waved his hand dejectedly, "Ben Hou is not sick, although it rained a little at the entrance of the vegetable market that day, he was only infected with the wind cold for a few days." The old man is going to die, not because of illness but because he has evil the emperor...... Uncle Guo, what are you doing with your ears plugged? ”

"What do you say? I didn't hear it, Mr. Liu should be louder! Madu shoved his fingers into his ears like an ostrich with his head buried in the sand.

"You're not a child anymore, why bother acting like this, the old man is serious with you." Liu Ji was angry and funny, and directly took Ma Du's arm down.

"I had earwax just now, I didn't hear what Mr. Liu said, I have to go back to see the child when it's not early this day." Ma Du turned around to take the collar but was hooked, and turned back helplessly: "Mr. Liu, I'm really busy." ”

"Then wait for the old man to finish speaking before leaving, otherwise you will regret it."

Ma Du sighed and said, "Okay, Mr. Liu, you can say it, I'll listen to it." ”

"Let's go, go over there, there's little shade over there!" For fear that Ma Du would run away, Liu Ji dragged Ma Du to the side of the swing, sat down on the wooden board unceremoniously, and patted the other half, "Come, sit with the old man!" ”

For fear that the famous people have some special habits, Ma Du directly refused, "You sit, I'll help you push!" ”

Ma Du slowly pushed the chain, and the swing shook slightly, not much, so that Liu Ji's feet would not leave the ground.

"Just now I wanted to say to Xuanzhong, 'I have hated the emperor, and the emperor will kill me'." Hearing that there was no movement behind him, Liu Ji smiled and asked, "Xuanzhong doesn't seem surprised!" Could it be that the emperor gave you a breath? ”

"No, although I am a relative, the emperor treats me closely, but he will never tell me about this kind of mysterious thoughts. Mr. took the opportunity to calculate, but he often couldn't figure it out! ”

"Hey...... Xuanzhong is right, the old man has suffered losses for most of his life. This time, the emperor used the empty seal case to beat the literati in eastern Zhejiang to pieces, and Yushitai also suffered, and a smart person like Xuanzhong will definitely be able to see the way. ”

Ma Du is not because he is smart, he just realized that Liu Ji seemed to die at this time after Liu Ji's reminder, if he didn't die of illness, it could only be Lao Zhu's hand.

"If Mr. stays in the academy, he may be able to find a glimmer of life, don't you think Bo Qi is good here? When the time comes, a few gentlemen and I will intercede for you. ”

"Huh...... I'm afraid I don't even believe what Xuan Zhong said, and staying here will only implicate you. Since ancient times, kings and ministers have to die. The old man can be regarded as having made some contributions to the Ming Dynasty, the emperor will not tear his face, and he is afraid that he will not even have a chance to intercede.

A few days ago, I found out that the old man's house is very likely to lurk in the brocade guard, maybe in the middle of the night, he will sneak into the old man's bedroom and stab the old man's throat...... No, this trick is too ostentatious, and it is better to poison it, and die unconsciously. ”

Ma Du lowered his voice and said, "Since the gentleman knows, why is he still delaying leaving." ”

"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. The old man is the sincerity of the Ming Dynasty, there are countless people living in the Qingtian clan, where can he go, people are rare in the seventies, the old man has passed the sixtieth birthday, and what if he dies early and late. You're still young, and you'll understand when you reach the age of an old man. ”

Ma Du was speechless, he really underestimated the reader, and would rather be a dead uncle than be a wanted criminal and affect others.

"Say what the old man does, the old man is not here to ask you to come up with ideas to survive today, the empty seal of the old man has affected Brother Jing Lian, I am afraid that sooner or later I will follow in the footsteps of the old man, Jing Lian is a sincere and honest gentleman, if the old man is involved, even if I die, it is not uneasy, I hope you can turn around at that time."

"Mr. Song taught me to read and learn characters vividly, as a student, I try my best to turn around, otherwise I don't have to teach here, I'm afraid that I won't need my help when the time comes, and the mother and the prince will definitely intercede for him."

Liu Ji shook his head and said, "Xuanzhong doesn't know that your words are much easier than those of Niangniang and the Prince." ”

"Niangniang and the crown prince are the emperor's flesh and blood, and I am just a courtier."

"The emperor listens to you more! Niangniang and the crown prince are afraid that they can't casually let His Majesty make drastic reforms and new financial policies. The old man can see that the weight of your emperor's heart is extraordinary. The old man told you that day that the emperor had the intention of letting you assist the prince, and it was not a guess. ”

"Oh!" Madu immediately became interested, "What is the basis for sir?" ”

Liu Ji smiled mysteriously, "At the court meeting that day, everyone was concerned about the empty seal, but the old man remembered what the emperor said. He asked you, 'A few days ago, you said that you would replace agricultural taxes with commercial taxes, but you dare to say that it doesn't make sense for civil affairs.' Commercial tax instead of agricultural tax, the old man Xuanzhong was startled, since ancient times, all dynasties have taken agriculture and mulberry as the foundation of the country, in order to show that the emperor attaches importance to farming and raising silkworms, but the more attention is paid to the family, the heavier the burden of the peasants, a pick on the thousands of years, if they can let them take a breath, it will be brilliant in the annals of history, and the emperor in power will also be the holy monarch beyond Yao Shun. ”

Ma Du walked to the side and looked at Liu Ji and said, "Does Mr. Liu believe it?" ”

If it is said by others, the old man does not believe it, just like the prosperity of commerce and trade in the Song Dynasty is far from comparable to today, and there is no exemption from agricultural taxes. However, the old man who said Xuanzhong felt that there was still hope, and the emperor must have thought so too. Xuanzhong is not greedy for power, and he has the trust of the prince, no wonder the emperor likes you. ”

"That's hard to say, maybe the emperor will guard against me becoming a king."

Regardless of whether Liu Ji's guess is true or not, Ma Du will not take it seriously, the plan will never catch up with the changes, and Lao Zhu, who killed the red-eyed man later, can't control himself.

Liu Ji smiled, "Wang Mang's reputation before usurping the throne is a hundred times better than yours!" Liu Ji suppressed his smile and said in a deep voice: "Looking at the emperors of the past dynasties, there are wise and wise people, there are stupid and incompetent people, and there are cruel and unkind people, it can be said that there are all kinds of people. But the emperor is an outlier among the different compared to any one person, and the old man will inevitably be confused with common sense! ”

He got up from the swing and walked slowly out along the edge of the playground, "The old man is young and ambitious, resentful of Meng Yuan's corruption and left several times, but when he is old, he is attached to the power and what he wants in his heart has not been realized. He looked around, "This academy is so good, even the king of the dead country can enjoy himself here, and the old man regrets it too late." Accompany the king like a tiger, and treasure it! ”

Looking at Liu Ji's bleak back, Ma Du's heart softened, and he shouted: "Mr. stay......"
