Chapter 1: The Boy Here Section 18: The Situation in Beijing and Central China (I)

"Severy, we're still a day away from Kyoto. "The driver is also very diligent along the way, always thinking about several employers, if you arrive at the station, I think I will definitely give a good review.

"Then let's pack up and get ready to go. Yuan Zixin also felt that this coachman was very good, much more sensible than the boy he used to be.

The three masters and apprentices in this group packed up and got into the carriage, and the coachman drove the carriage. When the driver woke up today, he suddenly felt that he had become a little different when he walked with these three.

"Chengjie, there is a branch. The two of you are both students who went to Beijing to take the exam. Do you know the current situation in Beijing, and what should you do when you arrive in Beijing?" Although the reasons for going to Beijing and the things to do are different, they are all the same bottomless Kyoto!

"If the situation in Kyoto is not clear to the students, they know that even if there are many people in Kyoto who are involuntarily involved, they will definitely act on their hearts. At least for now, I still have a good vision of Kyoto, after all, outsiders say that Kyoto is good, and the city is lively and bustling. It's like a fairy palace that never sleeps, and only when you enter Beijing can you have a good future. Mu Youzhi said what he thought with a smile. In fact, he already felt that Kyoto must be a giant city full of right and wrong, and it may not be as good as the people in his hometown say. However, he believes that as long as he guards his heart and is not moved by external objects, he will definitely have something to do in the capital.

Listening to Mu Youzhi's words, Yuan Zixin suddenly felt that if Kyoto is a big dye vat, a person has his own goals and ideals, and when he enters the dye vat, he is not dazzled by those brilliant colors, but he just chooses his favorite color and retreats from the whole body, which is also a beautiful thing.

Li Chengjie also spoke, he wanted to popularize science for his little junior brother, after all, as the second disciple of the master, my little junior brother, even if his literary skills are slightly poor, it should be okay to find an official position in the court, "Master, junior brother Mu, this Beijing should be hiding waves in the appearance of living and working in peace and contentment." Under the rule of His Majesty, the people have been reducing taxes and forced labor year after year, and under the premise of maintaining the needs of the country, more and more people have returned to the government, and the scene is peaceful. However, the Son of Heaven has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and occasionally when he goes out of the palace to inspect, there are officials who collude up and down, hypocritically pander, and carefully arrange to sing a good song for His Majesty in a peaceful and prosperous era. It is very likely that His Majesty did not know that his national policy of assisting border management had not been implemented well, and that the people were not only the people in Kyoto, but also all the people in the world. The so-called human suffering, there are still a considerable number of poor people who have not received assistance from the imperial court. ”

"I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor you said really loves the people so much, but I know that our local taxes are still very heavy, and if the heavens are not beautiful, we will still have a certain amount of pressure. Mu Youzhi actually has no concept of the imperial court, and this is the first time he has gone far away.

"My father once told me that when the son of heaven has the people of the world in his heart, it is inevitable that the authorities will be confused. If the ministers are in charge, what His Majesty can listen to every day is just carefully prepared by others. Speaking of this, Li Chengjie was quite resentful.

"Now, Your Majesty is in good health, and there is no intention of establishing a reserve for the time being. However, all the officials in the court and the central government believed that the establishment of the prince could consolidate the country's foundation, and the three princes had reached the age of the right age, and the prince was established, and the other princes could also make arrangements. This also makes His Majesty very worried. ”

These things in the palace are not hidden in Beijing, but when Mu Youzhi heard it, as if he had heard something terrible, he was extremely excited, and hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty the Emperor, why are you worried?"

Li Chengjie also lowered his voice in a lower tone, and said, "It is rumored that Your Majesty has three princes, the eldest prince is honest and kind, but this literary and martial arts are too dull." These two princes are still martial, they like to stay in the army all the year round, and they especially love to guard the palace and city, and punish the evil for the people. You can endure hardships and don't like extravagance, but these two princes seem to have some developed limbs and simple minds, and one day Your Majesty asked him some principles for governing the country, and these two princes made Your Majesty angry. If the second prince becomes the prince, I am afraid that there will be no battle in the world, and he will immediately lead the troops to go out and unify the outside world. Only these three princes have the best reputation in the court, and their cultural and martial arts are all superior. Li Chengjie seemed to say that he was tired and took a breath.

This Mu Youzhi immediately interjected, "Then set up the third prince as the prince, what is there to worry about His Majesty the Emperor." Isn't it good that both culture and martial arts are superior?"

"Yes, it's good, but it's a pity that a few years ago, it was suddenly found out that these three princes had a strange disease. Therefore, it has nothing to do with the throne. What kind of strange disease is still a secret in the palace. His Majesty the Emperor also arrested all the people involved in the illness of the three princes, and they did not know whether they were alive or dead. Li Chengjie also fell into thinking when he said this, in fact, he couldn't understand what kind of disease it was, and it was difficult to cure it with the power of the whole country? And although it was rumored that the third prince was sick, he did not see that His Majesty the Emperor was anxious for the world's famous doctors to diagnose and treat the prince. Is it really a rumor?

"Yes, master, you are a poison master, and you must also be proficient in medical science, guess what disease the third prince suffers from?" Li Chengjie's words seemed to ignite Mu Youzhi's curiosity, and he hurriedly asked his mysterious master, and flicked his master's sleeve coquettishly.

"As a teacher, I will teach you one more sentence today, curiosity kills cats. Or if one day you think you can do it, you can ask our Emperor in person. "Yuan Zixin, the more I look at these two disciples these days, the more pleasing it is. In life, there is such a clever ghost, just like adding a little more MSG to the meal, which is more delicious.

"Senior brother, you know the things in this palace so clearly, the condition of the second prince..."Mu Youzhi saw that the master didn't eat his own set, he was not discouraged, and made up his mind to switch to his senior brother Li Chengjie, thinking that the iron-beaten Hanhan must not be able to withstand his own soft grinding and hard bubbles.

Li Chengjie also looked at the master helplessly, and when he saw that the master did not stop him, he gestured with his hand and motioned for the junior brother to come over.

Mu Youzhi is also very well-behaved, stretching out his ears, and he can't hide his excitement in his heart.

Li Chengjie told him very small that it was rumored in the market.

"Poof, that third prince turned out" Mu Youzhi listened to the words of his senior brother Li Chengjie, but he burst into laughter on the spot, and he didn't know the severity, and he didn't see restraint, so he was about to blurt out. Li Chengjie hurriedly made a shushing gesture.

Yuan Zixin was also afraid that this disciple's newborn calf would really be able to say anything, so he also stretched out his hand, patted Mu Youzhi, and said, "Sit down, don't roll over the car one by one." ”

Mu Youzhi glanced at his senior brother stupidly, and nodded frequently at the master, indicating that he understood. I took a few deep breaths in a row to adjust my mood. But thinking about the fact that the third prince actually had that kind of disease, I don't want to laugh.
