It was seen that Fu Youwen not only had no hostility towards Xia Yuanji, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue who had suddenly emerged, but was even closer to him.

The CPU in his brain is really overwhelmed.

The other students in the Imperial College had a mixture of envy, jealousy, helplessness, disappointment, and many other emotions in their eyes. They discussed in twos and threes, suppressing their voices:

"A third-rank official, is he being treated like such a joke?"

"This is not only unfair, but also too hasty and reckless. Isn't it too arbitrary and self-serving? How can one act this way?!"

"Hmph! Where does this leave the teachings of the ancient sages and saints?"

"From now on, no one needs to study hard. Just focus on how to catch His Majesty's eye and gain His Majesty's favor!"

"That's right! If this continues, the Ming Dynasty..."

"..."

They had read many books and knew many principles and rules. As the saying goes, scholars are full of pride. Today's incident had already made them extremely upset. Now that the messenger left, they couldn't help but vent the resentment they had been holding back for a while.

Zhu Yunhuan made such a big fuss to appoint him as the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

He certainly has his considerations.

However, it was impossible for others to see this consideration clearly, let alone understand him. Emotionally and rationally, they all felt that the little emperor Zhu Yunhuan was simply too absurd, nonsensical, and frivolous.

Many people are extremely disappointed and pessimistic...

Even putting aside their envy, they saw Zhu Yunhuan's actions as the product of a tyrant ruler. The Ming dynasty's official system was in turmoil. Would the court be filled with incompetent individuals who rose to power by pleasing the emperor? Would His Majesty continue to escalate his behavior?

Worse still, if this continued, would the Ming Dynasty, which had just enjoyed twenty years of stability, inevitably fall apart under the leadership of such a "willful and reckless" little emperor? ...

What happened in the Imperial College today.

This made these so-called scholars even more disappointed with the Ming Dynasty.

"Shut up, everyone!"

"No matter what you think or feel, be careful with your words and actions! This is the Imperial College! We are under the Emperor's feet! There is no room for your nonsense!"

Amid the public outcry, even the Imperial College's chief academic officer himself was filled with confusion, and even felt that the arguments of the group of students behind him were correct, but he could only stand up to stop everyone from speaking ill of him.

After all, he knew it well.

If this group of students continues to rant, words like "Ming Dynasty is doomed", "incompetent ruler", "national destruction" will start to come out of their mouths.

He didn't dare let such a thing happen under his jurisdiction.

"Go! Go! Go!"

"Everyone, go to morning class! No more discussion of this matter!"

The chief academician of the Imperial College put on a serious expression and scolded.

Everyone could only give up and rush into the school in a depressed atmosphere.

Wait until everyone else has left.

The Imperial College's chief academic officer finally sighed with disappointment, shook his head helplessly, and hesitated to speak with a look of disappointment: "Da Ming... Alas..."

Although he is calm and knows his limits.

But how could what he was thinking and what his students were complaining about not be the same?

He swallowed his words back into his stomach, with a look of pessimism and disappointment on his face.

And the other side.

Fu Youwen took Xia Yuanji out of the Imperial College and headed straight towards the imperial palace.

Seeing Xia Yuanji lost in thought, Fu Youwen asked, half in a casual, half in a teasing tone, "Why? You're not really willing to be the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"

Xia Yuanji was silent for three or two breaths.

He raised his head firmly and said, "I am willing. However, Your Majesty's reward is too grand, and I am not able to adapt to it for the time being. In my heart... I am also a little worried about Your Majesty. I have to endure a lot for this, but Your Majesty... has to endure even more. I am grateful to Your Majesty, but I am also worried about you."

“But now it has come to this.”

"The imperial decree has been issued, and the students and adults have come here..."
