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

Seeing Zhu Yunhuan only looking outside, Xu Miaojin couldn't help but stare at him angrily, cursing in her heart:

"Hey! I come from a family of high officials and nobles, and you come from a family of merchants, yet you're so unresponsive? Are you really not even a little upset?"

"You're still so interested and interested in listening to storytelling!"

In fact, compared to the disparity in their identities, Xu Miaojin cares more about this.

Rather than saying she was angry, it would be more accurate to say that she felt more lost and annoyed - the other party didn't seem to care much.

She didn't even notice the slightest glance at me, nor did she even have the dirty thought of climbing up to a young lady from a noble family and achieving a class leap...

Xu Miaojin snorted at Zhu Yunxun, pretending to be nonchalant and comforting herself, "Forget it, forget it. You listen to storytelling, and I listen to it too. I don't care what you think! Humph!"

She forced herself to focus on the stands outside, where the storyteller had just finished telling the story about Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen.

This caused a flurry of discussion among the guests in the restaurant. Those who did not know the truth had been misled by the article, saying that they had misunderstood Marquis Jingchuan, and that Marquis Jingchuan was a veteran who had followed the late emperor since before the founding of the dynasty...

However, other people did not know about the stories of these Huaixi nobles. Xu Miaojin was born into one of the greatest founding nobles, so he could naturally hear that this article magnified the details, talking about a small part and hiding the other half.

She was already filled with anger and frustration, and now she thought that this kind of article that distorted right and wrong was written by the incompetent emperor of the time to confuse the people.

For a moment, I hated my blind date whom I had never met.

If it weren’t for that tyrant.

Why am I so embarrassed today?

He immediately cursed angrily, "They only picked out the good things to talk about, and didn't mention a single thing in the article that was bad. It's totally biased! They're obsessed with material things and are trying to confuse these ignorant people. To please those Huaixi generals, they're turning black into white. As expected, a tyrant is a tyrant!"

Although Zhu Yunhuan was looking outside.

But in fact, he didn't pay attention to what the storyteller was saying. It was more because he had just been discriminated against by Xu Miaojin, and suddenly remembered the big problems of the Ming Dynasty's agricultural tax, commercial tax and other tax systems.

With the current tax system of the Ming Dynasty, there is definitely no long-term development prospect.

Reform is definitely necessary - Zhang Juzheng's "One Whip System", Yongzheng's "Equalizing the Land Tax and Capitation"... or going a step further?

However, there are so many complex issues involved. Where should we begin? Should we proceed gradually or all at once? And how can we withstand the resistance and obstruction of various interest groups? These are all questions.

So Zhu Yunhuan was lost in thought for a while.

Hearing the word "tyrant", Zhu Yunhuan came back to his senses in surprise, and saw Xu Miaojin like a small mine that had exploded, madly attacking him.

"Every day there's a new trick, a new way to waste money."

"Playing with flowers and plants and ceramics is fine, but now that winter is approaching, the Ministry of Industry has forced all weaving workshops to stop working to replace parts, and they're competing with the people for firewood to survive the winter!"

"Not only have the people's firewood been snatched away by those cunning and treacherous departments like the Ministry of Industry, but they've also used the people's hard-earned money to set up coal mining and a coal transportation bureau... He's a descendant of the royal family, and he doesn't know that coal is bad. The officials in the court must have warned him, but this tyrant still insists on doing it his way!"

"Now it's even more outrageous. They've started recruiting alchemists to make elixirs again."

"If this continues, he might become a tyrant like Jie of Xia and Zhou of Shang, or even worse than Emperor Cheng of Han, Emperor Ling of Han, and Emperor Yang of Sui! A tyrant! A tyrant!"

Xu Miaojin seemed to have found an outlet to vent her emotions, and she caught Zhu Yunhuan and started complaining and cursing at him.
