Mu Niuniu didn't deny it, "I just want to go out for a walk."

"Although my experience in the martial arts world wasn't very good, I still want to go out more often."

"Brother has never really been out, so he doesn't know how vast the world outside is."

Mu Pingping had never really been out. The farthest place he had been was to town.

To him, the town was already a good place.

But now after hearing Niu Niu say this, he began to yearn for the outside world.

"Second brother, you have to understand one thing. Not to mention that it's dangerous outside, there are many people out there who look down on us."

Mu Niuniu said, "It's dangerous in the village too."

"As for those people outside who look down on me, then so be it."

"I believe that one day I will prove myself."

Mu Pingping raised his eyebrows and looked at him. Perhaps he understood. No wonder Niu Niu recovered so quickly after returning from the martial arts world.

"The Imperial College's affairs cannot be decided by just a few of us."

"We want to go, but other brothers may not want to go."

Mu Niuniu asked, "What do you think, big brother?"

Mu Pingping said, "How about this, we brothers discuss it first, and after we make a decision, we can discuss it with the elders. What do you think?"

Mu Niuniu thought it was a good idea, "I'll go get a few other people and we'll discuss it."

Soon, Mu Yuyu and others came to Mu Pingping's house.

Let’s discuss whether or not to go to the Imperial College.

"I don't care. My goal is not to pass the imperial examination or the military examination. My goal is to do business, so whether I enter the Imperial College or not doesn't have much impact on me."

"You can't say that. You need connections to run a business. Especially for people like us. The teacher said that the Imperial College has a lot of connections."

"I'd like to go to the Imperial College and see if it's really as good as you say, sir."

"I don't want to go to the Imperial College. There are so many important people in the Imperial College. I'm afraid of offending someone and bringing danger to my family."

After Mu Pingping understood all his brothers' thoughts, he said, "Let's talk about the pros and cons first."

"First of all, the Imperial College is a place with a lot of connections and children from big families. It will definitely be of great benefit to people like us."

When the teacher took him to visit the wealthy families in town, he taught him a lot.

Only then did he understand what real connections and interpersonal relationships were like.

It turns out that what wealthy families value is not only status and identity, but more importantly, connections.

Mu Niuniu and his companions listened obediently.

Mu Pingping continued, "Secondly, if we go to the Imperial College, we will definitely encounter a lot of trouble."

"Just like in the village, there are always some people who dislike us and try to make trouble for us."

Mu Niuniu and the others nodded in understanding.

"If you want to cause trouble, just let us ignore it. If it really doesn't work, we'll ask the gentleman to make the decision."

"I don't want to go either. The Imperial College is so dangerous. We might as well stay in the village. There will be a private school in the village soon."

Mu Pingping said, "I think grandpa and grandma want us to go to the Imperial College, but they are also worried that we might get into danger."

"My idea is that if there is such an opportunity, we should seize it."

This was the result of his much thought.

Some of the children agreed, while others disagreed.

"I still don't want to go to the Imperial College. I don't want to deal with those kids from wealthy families."

"I want to go to the Imperial College. It's such a good place. Why not go if you have the chance?"

Mu Pingping already understood what his younger brothers were thinking. Some wanted to go to the Imperial College, while others didn't.

Those who want to go do so because of what the gentleman said.

I didn't want to go because I was worried that I would get into trouble in the Imperial College and bring danger to my family.

"Well, think about it carefully, and don't rush to give me an answer in the next two days."

He smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. If we really go to the Imperial College, we're going there to study, not to cause trouble."

It didn’t matter to Muniuniu and the others who wanted to go to the Imperial College, but the other children were still not very willing to go.

After leaving Mu Pingping's house, the children stood in the yard and looked at each other.

"What's so good about the Imperial College? There are so many children from wealthy families who will look down on us. It's better for us to stay in the village."

"You are ignorant. Do you want to stay in the village forever? We are still young and we will have to go out and travel in the future."

"It's better to go out for a walk now than to go out for a walk later."

Mu Pingping listened to his brothers arguing, but did not go out to stop them or say anything.

Seeing a few younger brothers who don’t want to go out is like seeing his past self.

At first, he was also afraid of meeting wealthy families, always feeling that they were superior.

Later, after experiencing those things, he realized that wealthy families were not so arrogant.

When the private school was being built in the village, various things were progressing.

For example, the town's snow and ice clearing efforts have finally yielded significant results thanks to the efforts of countless villagers and townspeople.

There was also the issue of disaster relief supplies being robbed. Thanks to the efforts of General Zhuo Ren, a large number of people who took the opportunity to cause trouble and rob relief supplies were cleared out.

Let some of the relief supplies be used for the victims.

During this period, Emperor Sheng also dealt with several ministers, and even several members of the royal family were dealt with.

They are all people involved in looting disaster relief supplies.

When Zheng Xingguang got the news, he immediately went to find Cheng Zishi and Doctor Deng.

The two were sitting in the main room, warming themselves by the fire and drinking wine.

After the two sides exchanged greetings, they sat down to discuss business.

"I just received a letter from Uncle Emperor, and learned the details of the disaster relief supplies being looted." Zheng Xingguang said directly.

"You two know that there are always a few restless and scheming people in the royal family."

Cheng Zishi and Doctor Deng knew this.

Not to mention that there are a few restless people in the royal family, there are also a few restless people among the ministers.

Such is human nature.

When a person has power and status, he or she will think about having greater power and status, or even want more.

Zheng Xingguang continued, "With Wang... you know, right?"

Cheng Zishi and Dr. Deng were a little surprised.

"It turned out to be with Wang. I can't believe that someone who is usually so honest and doesn't care about anything would do such a thing."

"As the saying goes, you can judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart. He Wang appears to be honest, but he is actually pretending to be honest in order to make the emperor relax his vigilance against him."

Zheng Xingguang said, "To be precise, this was not the King's idea, but the Princess's."

"Because He Wang was honest and obedient, the emperor treated him very well, which gave the He Wang family a very high status."

"Over time, Princess He began to harbor inappropriate thoughts and instigated Prince He."
