Chapter 845
Buying a house and getting married in Beijing, where every inch of land is worth a lot of money...tsk tsk.
Zhu Yuanzhang came from a hard life and was notoriously stingy, so naturally his salary was not that good.
Although everyone is considered a member of the imperial court, only a small group of people at the top are powerful and influential. To put it bluntly, these middle and lower-level officials are just working for the imperial court.
"What is this guy showing off!" Lin Yishan, who is still single, cursed in his heart.
However, Lin Yishan didn't dare to complain, so he could only pretend to be relaxed and replied, "Uh, yes... I haven't married yet."
Feng Xu noticed the fleeting embarrassment on the other man's face, shook his head and smiled, "I didn't mean anything else. I meant... you're young and carefree, so you're naturally not afraid of taking risks. That military advisor is certainly strategic and wise, but the waves this ship is facing are too strong. If you're not careful, you'll be shattered."
While speaking, his brows were always furrowed.
Lin Yishan showed a hint of realization on his face, and realized what the other party meant: the political vortex between the current emperor and the Huaixi nobles is too dangerous. At least at first glance, there is no chance of winning. He has concerns and ties, so he will naturally be timid.
He nodded. "I understand."
However, Lin Yishan was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke up, "You have a wife and children. Shouldn't you be hoping for the victory of His Majesty and his military advisor? If the Ming Dynasty were ever to be completely overthrown by that group, life would be difficult, not easy, wouldn't it?"
As he spoke, a hint of determination appeared in his eyes.
In fact, in the eyes of these people.
Apart from the small group of people at the top who stand at the center of power and can participate in abusing power and pursuing profit, as well as those who have interests involved with them, whether officials or ordinary people, what they hope for is definitely stability and a good world.
If the Huaixi nobles were in power, they would even override the imperial power.
This world is definitely not easy to live in.
Hearing Lin Yishan's words, Feng Xu's brows relaxed unconsciously, and his originally solemn expression brightened. "That's true! If I can fight to the death for a better world... I'm definitely willing to do it. I didn't expect that even though you don't have a wife or children, you're more open-minded than me."
Lin Yishan's expression froze again, and he felt a little helpless.
Gan!
Another personal attack!
While the two were talking, someone faintly heard the sound of wheels rolling over the ground coming from afar. From a distance, they could see that the carriage drove straight into the Alchemy Department. At the same time, a Jinyiwei on horseback was also galloping towards them from afar.
Although everyone came from different departments and regional guards, they had been in the Jinyiwei for quite some time and naturally adapted to the strict rules of the Jinyiwei. The original noise and excitement immediately faded away like a tide.
Everyone stood up consciously.
Under the coordinated guidance of the centurions, general flags and small flags, all the people lined up neatly in units of centurions, forming three squares, and all of them looked solemn.
Everyone understood that no matter what speculations, dissatisfactions and resentments they had in their hearts, no matter what they would encounter in the future, they had no choice but to obey.
The Jinyiwei who came on horseback reined in his horse and stopped.
The three captains each took two steps forward, and one of them asked, "Captain Zhang, the higher-ups only told us to wait outside the Alchemy Bureau, but now... I don't know what's going on? We've been waiting here for over two hours."
"Commander Song has ordered that you may enter the Alchemy Department now." Having said that, the Jinyiwei known as "Captain Zhang" took out a token from his waist and threw it to the captain who had just spoken.
He continued, "I am not qualified to know what is going on. Commander Song means that if you bring this sign, someone from the Alchemy Department will take you to where you need to go."
