Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

"Indeed, Your Majesty... you can command the complete trust of Lord Fu, a veteran official with many years of experience in the political world!"

Xia Yuanji felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine and got goose bumps.

Countless other thoughts suddenly flooded into my mind:

"Because of your Majesty's thorough understanding of the world's economy? Because of your Majesty's unprecedented and never-before-seen ideas?"

"Such a penetrating, clear, and piercing vision is truly beyond the comprehension of ordinary people! Your Majesty's pioneering approach is truly astonishing!"

Thinking about what I learned from this afternoon until tonight.

My heart is still filled with excitement.

However, even now, Yuan Ji still wants to applaud in his heart what he learned in "economics" today.

But he immediately denied his idea: "No..."

"The two exam questions this time were given by His Majesty to everyone in the world. Furthermore, they were triggered by the two proposals that Lord Fu submitted to His Majesty at the beginning of this year."

"At that time, His Majesty openly rejected both proposals made by Lord Fu, the Minister of Revenue, and even denied him honor... When the answer was revealed today, only the four of us were present, so it's clear that Lord Fu doesn't know the answer either."

"Even so, Master Fu has complete trust in His Majesty's decision..."

Thinking of this, Xia Yuanji couldn't help but think of the young, handsome face he saw today, and the pair of eyes that seemed to contain vastness and seemed to be overlooking everything from the sky.

My heart felt like it was being squeezed by something and I couldn't breathe.

"This Emperor Kaiqian of the Ming Dynasty...just how much power does he possess? Even if we strip away that so-called 'economics,' it's still enough for Master Fu to let go of his grudge against me, the person who poses the greatest threat to him..."

Xia Yuanji took a deep breath and tried to stay calm and not lose his composure, but beneath the calm surface, his heart was beating wildly, filled with curiosity and exploration.

At the same time, there was an inexplicable layer of awe: This Emperor Kaiqian... he was absolutely completely different from what was rumored!!

"Weizhe, you look worried?" Fu Youwen, who was sitting next to him, was thinking of investing in the future on the one hand, and wanted to show his loyalty and make progress through Xia Yuanji on the other hand. Naturally, he noticed Xia Yuanji's slight changes and asked kindly.

Xia Yuanji regained his composure and forced a humble smile, saying, "I just...feel a little frightened."

This statement is still very reliable.

Suddenly, he went from being a commoner to a third-rank official. A person with an unstable mind would be elated at this time, but a smart person would indeed be frightened.

So Fu Youwen didn't suspect anything.

He then softly comforted her, "Don't panic! Your position was bestowed upon you by His Majesty's personal blessing. His Majesty values ​​your talent and is investigating, recruiting, and appointing talents for the sake of the Ming Dynasty... There's absolutely nothing wrong with this!"

"All you have to do is repay His Majesty's kindness in the future!"

"Otherwise, you don't have to worry about anything."

After saying that, Fu Youwen patted Xia Yuanji's shoulder encouragingly.

Didn't he know what kind of person Zhu Yunhuan was? No matter how big or small the decision was, no matter how reasonable or outrageous it was, there was no room for maneuver. To put it bluntly—he was a dictator! Even more powerful than the Taizu Hongwu Emperor!

Regarding the reward given to Xia Yuanji.

Fu Youwen saw it clearly and decided that it would be better to do a favor at this time.

Of course, there was another reason involved, one that Fu Youwen himself might not have realized: from Fu Youwen's perspective, Zhu Yunhuan was indeed a true dictator, but gradually, he had to admit... His Majesty had the responsibility, ability, and courage to be a dictator!
