"Knock knock knock·······." With a few loud bangs, several figures were thrown out of the flower hall and into the corridor outside.

"Oops, my waist."

"It hurts me."

"Bastard."

“···。”

Liu Jin and Zhang Zhong made a move, they couldn't even resist, and they didn't bring guards with them, and they didn't dare to come with escorts.

But after all, they are the children of official eunuchs, and they are not just anyone to humiliate, if they don't find their place today, how will they gain a foothold in the capital in the future.

"If you have the courage to leave your name, don't go." Several people who were thrown out scolded and pointed at Liu Jin.

Liu Jin smiled, didn't speak, turned around and left, you guys, you don't deserve to go against our family, you want to know who our family is, go back, and tell your Lao Tzu if you have the courage, it's almost the same to let these old guys come.

Wang Jinglong and the other two and Yang Shen and others were fine, Wang Jinglong ran out with the other two, quickly helped a few people up, stood in the corridor, glared at Zhu Houzhao, and threatened; "Your Excellency's style is really domineering, let me wait to embarrass me, your surname is Zhu, right, do you dare to leave your full name?"

"Zhu Shou." Zhu Houzhao said lightly.

Wang Jinglong nodded coldly and said; "Okay, have the courage, see that you are also a scholar, you are here to participate in Enke, you and I are understandable to have fun, but Brother Tai is too domineering, the flower lady is not your ban, Zhu Shou, very good, the day after tomorrow, it is Enke, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile when he heard this; "What do you want?"

"My name is Wang Jinglong, I am willing to make a bet with Zhu Gongzi, if you win, the flower lady is yours, we will no longer harass her, if you lose, please publicly apologize to us, since then I have seen me and others on their own detour, just take the ranking of this branch as a bet, as long as your name is on the list, even if I lose."

Liu Jin pursed his lips disdainfully on the side, thinking that it was a gamble, but in this case, it is not easy for His Majesty to want his name to go up?

Zhang Zhong was indifferent, like a wooden man.

Yang Shen and Zhu Houzhao sat opposite each other, looking at the two slaves behind Zhu Houzhao, one of them showed a look of disdain, and his heart was not calm, and then he looked at Zhu Houzhao shaking the fan calmly, and his indifferent attitude aroused his speculation and curiosity even more.

Hua Niang heard the words behind the screen, and her tone was a little anxious: "The slave family thanked Zhu Gongzi." ”

Then he turned his head and pleaded with Wang Jinglong and others, "Wang Gongzi, the fault is all the fault of the slave family, and the slave family has neglected a few people, so please blame, and ask the son to do a lot." "She can't open her mouth, although her Zhu Houzhao is not simple, but it is just not simple, can she still be stronger than the son of seven court ministers, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this gamble is a dead end at all.

That Wang Jinglong's father is Wang Qiong, but the minister of the imperial court, the other people, either the son of Shangshu, or the son of the important ministers of the court, that is not the hand and eye to the sky, although they can't directly control their father, but as long as they go back and chew their tongues, let the fathers remember Zhu Shou, then he will be finished this time, and maybe his career will be hopeless from now on.

But this Zhu Gongzi is arrogant, and when people ask, he spit out his name and surname, which is death.

Yang Shen also spoke for Zhu Shoudao; "Brother Wang, if you don't look at the thin noodles below, forget about it, but the battle of will, why make such a fuss."

Wang Jinglong didn't want to give Yang Shen a face, after all, Lao Tzu was a hot figure in the cabinet, and he would be his boss in the future, so he couldn't afford to offend, but he couldn't afford to lose the face of himself and others, he groaned for a while, and said; "Okay, the gambling contract can be stopped, but, Brother Yang, as long as he compensates my brother for wine and admits his mistake, I can treat this matter as if it didn't happen."

Hua Niang breathed a sigh of relief, got up and thanked her, after all, it was because of herself.

Yang Shen looked at Zhu Houzhao opposite, this was the maximum concession he could do, I hope his kindness would not be in vain, hey, I knew that I wouldn't come to join in the fun, he was not familiar with Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao thanked him, pressed the folding fan in his hand, signaled the flower girl to feel at ease, with a casual attitude, and arrogant, the fan shook lightly on his chest, and said with a smile; "Your bet is very interesting, but, I don't agree with what you said about taking the flower girl as a bet, she is a person, not a cargo bet, why don't I wait for another bet?"

Hua Niang listened to him help her speak, her heart was moved, her eyes were slightly red, although she was a Qing person, but she was also a dusty woman, who really valued her, just her skin and reputation, I didn't expect this Zhu Gongzi to speak up for her, can she not burst into tears?

Yang Shenben is also a straightforward character, and he is ashamed to hear it.

Wang Jinglong casually bowed his hand to Yang Shen and said: "Brother Yang is not that I don't give face, but that this Zhu Gongzi doesn't accept your kindness, since this is the case, then I, Wang Jinglong, will be offended." ”

He turned his head to Zhu Houzhao and said in a deep voice: "What bet do you want to exchange?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile; "My bet is very simple, I don't want you to apologize for drinking, as long as you do one thing, that is?" He deliberately hung his appetite and didn't finish.

Wang Jinglong said angrily: "What? ”

"When I see Ben Shao in the future, I will kowtow to Ben Shao, and shout grandpa three times, hahaha······."

After Wang Jinglong and the others heard his bet, they suddenly became angry, they were so insulting that they couldn't speak, and pointed at him and said, "You, you, you." ”

Liu Jin saw that someone dared to point at His Majesty, and shouted: "Bold, don't get out yet." ”

Liu Jin was about to fight, and Wang Jinglong and the others fled in fright, not daring to stay.

Yang Shenliu didn't follow them, so he wasn't embarrassed, and looked at Zhu Houzhao with a sympathetic face; "Zhu Gongzi, why is this difficult, endure the storm for a while, this is trouble."

Hua Niang also said on the side: "Zhu Gongzi, you are really reckless, that Wang Jinglong is not easy to mess with." ”

He shook his fan, didn't care, raised his wine glass, and asked Yang Shen; "Brother Yang doesn't have to care, a few clowns who jump off the beam, what can they do to me, could it be that they dare to say anything about today? Or does it mean that there is power behind them, and this son does not? ”

Yang Shen heard him say this, and he stopped talking, since you are not worried, I am worried about a fart for you, by the way, your surname is Zhu, right, is it still a descendant of the Zhu family, and the descendants of the Zhu family still have to take the imperial examination?

Flower Lady Heartway; "Zhu Gongzi may really not be afraid of them."

It's not unusual for Qionglou to make trouble, I haven't seen it for a long time, and no restaurant thug has come to see what happened, as long as there is no death, these uncles love to make trouble, and they are all rich or expensive when they come here, no matter which side they are, they are not offended by Qionglou, they are all big moneymen.

Although the forces behind them are not small, they don't want to offend these people, and when one side loses, it will naturally be over, and there is nothing to look at.

The superfluous people left, Zhu Houzhao thanked Yang Shen again, after understanding each other, the guests talked happily, Hua Niang served beside Zhu Houzhao, poured wine for the two, listened to the two chatting about the world, from poetry and songs, to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Yang Shen almost knew everything, Zhu Houzhao sighed and admired, the time was almost the same, the two were familiar, and there was a sense of hating each other, Zhu Houzhao saw the poor dagger, and intended to mention the disadvantages of the Ming Dynasty, and test the opinions of this talented man.

"It's late to have a relationship with Brother Yang, Brother Yang, when I look at the history books, there are some ills and opinions about the past dynasties in the book, and I have questions in my heart, I want to hear how Brother Yang thinks about it, may I ask, what is the cycle of chaos?"

When Yang Shen heard this, he was shocked, looked around in a panic, saw that there was no one, and then looked at the indifferent expressions of the two servants behind him, and then breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice; "Brother Zhu, don't talk nonsense, if you let someone listen to it, the catastrophe will not be far away." looked at the flower girl beside her, and the meaning was self-explanatory.

Although Hua Niang didn't understand what she meant, she also knew that maybe Zhu Shou said something bad, otherwise, how could Yang Gongzi be scared like this, she was a talented woman, and she only seemed to understand politics, so she left under the pretext of leaving, and Zhu Houzhao signaled her to take it easy.

"Brother Yang, don't be surprised, out of your mouth, into my ears, we only talk about ancient history, Brother Yang doesn't hurt to say." Zhu Houzhao saw that he was frightened by himself, reminded him that we were talking about ancient history, not the present dynasty, and said encouragement.

Yang Shen sighed slightly, he hadn't been admitted to the imperial examination yet, but he didn't want to ruin his future because of his remarks.

In fact, this problem, his father Yang Tinghe occasionally talked about at home, saying that the Ming Dynasty is currently becoming more and more serious malpractice, and it is constantly repeated in Daming, and it is difficult to return, to get rid of this kind of malpractice, there is only one way, innovation, but it is so easy to innovate.

The problem of Daming lies in the four points, tax silver, military households, vassal kings, land contributions, Zhu Houzhao has already had some plans in his heart, after all, this is his country, if he is played to death, in the next life, I don't know what to experience?

As soon as the topic was opened, Yang Shen let go, and talked about the current matter, who could say no, and while talking, Zhu Houzhao invisibly led back to the topic.

"Brother Zhu, what do you think of the scholars in my dynasty compared to the former Song Dynasty?" Yang Shen talked about sex after drinking, and asked rhetorically.

Zhu Houzhao thought about the final outcome of the two imperial courts, shook his head; "The four bodies are not diligent, and the grains are not divided." He summed it up in eight words.

Yang Shen didn't approve of it, and shook his head: "It's true that the four bodies are not diligent, and it's not bad if the grains are not divided, but it's not enough to describe the current readers. ”

"Brother Yang is reasonable, and incisive, in one sentence, but what does this have to do with the cycle of chaos we are talking about." In fact, Zhu Houzhao already understood and asked deliberately.

Yang Shen raised the wine glass and drank it all, and his courage was a little bigger, and he said with a smile when he heard the words: "Just now you asked me about the way to control chaos, and I asked you how you are today's scholars, then I will ask you again, how to govern the world depends on the scholars to become officials after being promoted, right?" Then think about it, what is the benefit of such a person to become an official, for the country and the people? Hmph, it's good not to mislead the country and the people. "He is a straightforward person, and his father is simply the same character, if this sentence spreads, he will be scolded to death by the world's scholars.

It's crazy and straightforward, but I like it, hehe.

"It is said that the Ming Dynasty has three major drawbacks, commercial taxes, vassal kings, and military household systems, but in fact, otherwise, how powerful is my Taizu in my dynasty, and when the world is determined, how many capable ministers are there, how can we not see these problems? Of course not, when forced to be helpless, in the end it was difficult to collect the water, when the ancestor had tried, but did not succeed, so that it continued to the present, in fact, the most important thing now is that I solve the problem of reading too little, if the people are enlightened, the decrees of the imperial court are accessible, and there is no need for the following officials to misinterpret and mislead, the imperial court will be much better now, and it will not be so difficult to collect commercial taxes, because, the people know what is commercial tax, and military households will not be so difficult, because they know what is the military household system, as for the vassal king, hiccup~. Yang Shen burped.

"That's even simpler, Brother Zhu has ever thought that Taizu's original intention was to let them guard the Quartet and divide them out, but Taizu can't move the seal without an edict, and now there are still internal troubles in the north and south that need to be guarded? Since there is none, then move them all out, as long as the imperial court agrees to autonomy, I don't think anyone wants to stay in the fief and be a dependent vassal king! The more Yang Shen spoke, the more energetic he became.

Zhu Houzhao also understood, originally thought that the disadvantages of the Ming Dynasty lie in the disadvantages he said, but now it seems that his knowledge is not as good as that of an ancient, and he still crosses the loss, even the great people of the previous life know that the people are not wise, and the country is not rich and strong, this Yang Shen is really not simple, he is worthy of being the first genius of the Ming Dynasty, don't say anything about Xie Jin, if he is smart, he will not die so miserably.

"According to what you said, then if the vassal king does not agree to move the feudal seal and rebels? And how to prevent it? Zhu Houzhao gradually leaned back on the low chair and asked comfortably, he liked Yang Shen more and more, and he didn't know how Zhu Houzhao in his previous life let go of this great talent.

Yang Shen drank a glass again, a little drunk, his face was ruddy, and he shook his head; "The Analects 'Wei Linggong, Zigong asked for benevolence, Zi said, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, what is a tool? It is a soldier, a soldier, a treacherous way, and his majesty is wise and wise, and his means are unfathomable, and he eradicates the usurping King Ning and his comrades, isn't it the East and West Factory, the Jinyi Guard, the Forbidden Army, and the Iron Eagle Guard, which has never heard of? They are His Majesty's weapons, not His Majesty's swords! Your Majesty holds such a sharp weapon in his hand, with coercion against the government and the opposition, with benevolence and virtue to the people, and with a sharp weapon to get rid of the thieves, who dares to rebel? Who is attached? Yang Shen Kankan said yes.

Zhu Houzhao praised without shouting, "Okay." ”

Liu Jin and Zhang Zhong both listened to it and were relaxed, this Yang Shen spoke, reasonable, quoted scriptures, and quoted His Majesty's rebellious means to deal with King Ning's rebellion, this happened in front of him, it can't be fake, until Yang Shen said it today, I didn't understand that His Majesty was not simple, it was really a fan of the authorities, and a bystander was clear.

They have been following His Majesty's side, naturally they just think that Zhu Houzhao has done things before, so although King Ning's matter surprised them, they didn't feel much wisdom and martial arts, Yang Shen's analysis and explanation suddenly surprised the two of them, isn't that it?

Zhu Houzhao nodded frequently, and he couldn't help but be a little complacent.
