In another room at Liu Ximing's residence, Chen Zilong was also chatting openly with Gu Yanwu and others.

Gu Yanwu was obviously quite interested in everything about Dengzhou and pulled Chen Zilong to ask.

"Brother of the people, Dengzhou's appearance is obviously better than other prefectures and counties. Since you came here first, what are the reasons? By the way, why did you come to Dengzhou?"

Chen Zilong has not been in vain for the past two months. In order to obtain the details of Dengzhou, after seeking Dou Yuquan's consent, he took his servants to walk around the Dengzhou countryside.

Hearing Gu Yanwu's question, Chen Zilong smiled and said, "It's also related to Liu Wujiang when I can get here."

"I guess you have had connections with Huang Zewang over the past two years? Has he ever promoted the Datong theory to you?"

Seeing Chen Zilong looking at him among so many people, Gu Yanwu was immediately embarrassed.

He is now in his youth and a strong spirit, and he yearns for fairness and justice theories are perfect and clear in logic, which is very attractive to him.

Although he has not joined Datong Society in the past two years, he has also helped Huang Zonghui promote it in the Restoration Society a lot.

Gu Yanwu's expression said everything, and Chen Zilong smiled and did not pursue the matter too much.

"Brother Taichong has also sent me many letters to discuss the matter of Datong Society. I will go to Queshan County first for this trip. Judging from his appearance, he thinks he is already planning to join Datong Society."

Gu Yanwu thought, "Brother Taichong once said that the world is the master and the king is the guest. In his opinion, the world is more important than anything else. Do these situations in Dengzhou now show that this Datong theory is the way to govern the chaos? His choice is not impulsive."

"I don't deny the Datong theory, but I have other concerns."

Chen Zilong stood up and paced behind his back with his hands behind his back.

"One of them, Liu Wujiang, Huang Zewang and others are named Tuogu, but they are actually a description of the present. They have many refutations about the wise men of Neo-Confucianism, which is what I am worried about."

"The second is that the Datong theory mainly focuses on investigating things, and what they talk about is mostly the way of changes in the universe, rather than those who specialize in morality. Whether such a method is beneficial to the world is my concern."

"The third is the issue of power. Why can Dengzhou have its current prosperity? It is entirely because all parts of Dengzhou are all controlled by Datong Society. Dou Xingde implemented an integrated grain collection in Dengzhou villages and towns, and unified grain purchase and sale, and the people formed a baojia. Therefore, the government drove the people as if they were using their arms."

"Is there anything wrong with this?" Gu Yanwu asked in confusion, "The current difficulties today are that the court cannot mobilize the people's strength, the money cannot be collected, and the troops cannot be built. However, the Datong Society can make the people as usual. This is the most powerful thing."

Chen Zilong immediately retorted: "If all the places are controlled by Datong Society, how should the court handle themselves?"

"Hahaha, what's the difficulty?" Gu Yanwu laughed discontently.

"If this is true, then Brother Wujiang should join the court as prime minister. Brother Taichong is not

Have you said it many times? The biggest disadvantage of this dynasty is to dismiss the position of prime minister."

"Although the cabinet has the reality of the prime minister, it does not have the name of the prime minister, so that the reputation and position are reversed. This is to facilitate the king to play with power, but it is not conducive to the world. Now that something has happened, everyone in the cabinet is shirking the responsibility. Who should be responsible for the world?"

"I think this is actually the advantage of Datong Society. Have you ever learned about the organizational structure of Datong Society? The structure extends layer by layer, which is really much more convenient for governance."

Chen Zilong originally didn't understand Huang Zongxi's argument, but now looking at the government affairs and local conditions, he was a little relieved.

However, Chen Zilong vaguely felt in his heart that Liu Ximing did not seem to be determined to be the prime minister.

But he couldn't say this directly. As long as there was no basis or evidence, it was said that people had other ideas, which was like digging people's ancestral graves.

Secondly, there was never a precedent for civil officials to rebel since the Ming Dynasty, and in the minds of scholars like Chen Zilong, he was very resistant to it.

He himself is also a literati. If he wants him to admit that Liu Ximing intends to rebel, wouldn't that mean that he admits that he has this possibility?

This is something that Chen Zilong cannot accept.

While everyone in the room was discussing, a shout came from outside the room, "Zhongcheng is here in person."

Chen Zilong, Gu Yanwu and others looked at each other, quickly opened the door, and Liu Ximing and Dou Yuquan, who were dressed in regular clothes, walked in with smiles.

As soon as he saw the many children from the Fushe family in the house, Liu Ximing paused and then laughed: "All the talents are here, are they discussing something big? "

"Hahaha, it's just about Dengzhou."

The room was full of open-minded people, and they were talking about the world. Chen Zilong immediately replied with a smile.

"That's right," Liu Ximing stepped in, "I brought the governor of Dengzhou here, so let's discuss together."

Everyone in the house invited Liu Ximing to the seat, and the group sat down in sequence according to the imperial examination.

As a landlord, Dou Yuquan shook his clothes and smiled unscrupulously, "Seeing that everyone is so concerned about Dengzhou, my Dengzhou is really honored, which means that we are doing our work well."

"Hahaha", Gu Yanwu and others burst into laughter again.

At present, Gu Yanwu took the lead in asking Dou Yuquan about some of the Dengzhou affairs that he and others were concerned about. Everyone was more concerned about why Dengzhou was different from other prefectures and counties, allowing the people to live and work in peace while maintaining local safety.

Dou Yuquan was also quite direct. In addition to the matters that the Liu family participated in, other questions such as the militia system and integrated food payment were also answered one by one.

Faced with Gu Yanwu's question of why local officials and gentry could agree to pay food together, Dou Yuquan pretended to smile bitterly and replied that Dengzhou was located in the heart of the Central Plains, and it was already ruined before he came. How many officials and gentry were left?

This is why this matter was implemented.

Seeing that the group of friends in the house were about to become fans of Datong Society, Chen Zilong finally spoke.

He stood up and bowed to Liu Ximing and Dou Yuquan, saying, "Datong Society can benefit the people, it is indeed a blessing for Dengzhou. I don't want to ask more about the various Datong Society. I just want to ask Brother Wujiang, what do you mean?"

Seeing Chen Zilong staring at him, Liu Ximing stood up and laughed without any fear, "Of course, I will protect my China's foundation and prosperity and prosperity."

Liu Ximing smiled further and said, "My Datong Society's proposal is not something shameful. All of them have been explained in detail to everyone. Liu reiterated that what I asked for in Datong Society is to build a fair and just world."

Chen Zilong looked solemn, "Please be honest. Judging from Chen, Datong Society's approach does not seem to consider the court. The policies you implemented are all self-decided. Why is that?"

"Hahaha, it turns out that Brother Renzhong is worried about this."

Liu Ximing looked at Dou Yuquan with a big smile, turned around and asked:

"Does Brother Renzhong know what Zhang Pu and Zhang Gandu do at home after he was demoted?"

Chen Zilong, Gu Yanwu and others were both stunned, why did they get involved in the leader of the Fushe Society Zhang Pu again?

Chen Zilong also heard about Zhang Pu's plan. Seeing Liu Ximing ask such a question, his face immediately changed a little uneasy.

Liu Ximing smiled and signaled Li Biao to close the door.

The light in the house suddenly became much dimmed, making the expressions of the scholars in the house become unpredictable.

"There are all people here, and Liu told the truth. I heard that Zhang Gandu has been planning to promote Zhou Yanru to return to the prime minister. This should be correct, right?"

"I believe everyone knows what kind of person Zhou Yanru is. I also know Zhang Gandu's thoughts on doing this. It is said that Zhou Yanru has a handle in his hands. If Zhou Yanru gets promoted to the throne, the government will definitely be controlled by Zhang Gandu."

With a smile, he looked at Chen Zilong and others with a big change in his face. Liu Ximing asked back:

"I dare to ask Brother Zhang Gandu to do the government affairs in his hands. Where is the position of the court?"

"This, this, Brother Gandu made this bad plan for the sake of the world," Chen Zilong said stammering in cold sweat on his forehead.

"My Datong Society is also for the world!" Liu Ximing pressed step by step, "Anyone who governs politics must first find the foundation."

"What Brother Gandu saw was the court, so he could only think of controlling the court and promoting reforms. The world we saw was the people, so of course we could only start from the grassroots level."
