Thinking of this, he couldn't help but mutter, "Whether it's wise or not, let it be."
Unexpectedly, Liu Tieniu heard this and stood up, pointing at Wang Erzhu's nose and angrily said, "How dare you say that? How dare you say that His Majesty is not wise!"
When he roared, everyone in the yard heard it and stopped what they were doing.
He looked at Wang Erzhu eagerly.
Wang Erzhu's hair stood on end, and he rushed behind Emperor Jing, saying timidly, "I didn't say that Your Majesty is not wise, please don't say that!"
Emperor Jing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Liu Tieniu slowly sat down and continued to work, and said angrily: "I don't think you dare! Everyone in this city is grateful to your Majesty. Although everyone has not received much education, they still need to know how to be a good person."

This is the true will of the people, without a trace of impurities. He did not wear a dragon robe, and no ministers accompanied him.
How many emperors in ancient and modern times can deserve this evaluation from the people?
But then he changed his mind and thought of Wang Erzhu behind him.
I don’t know how many people like this there are in the world, and I feel another kind of feeling in my heart.
After Liu Tieniu finished speaking, Wang Erzhu felt ashamed, but still asked boldly: "Brother, are you still hiring?"
He wants to do it even if it only costs three or two taels a month.
I'm not going home, I'm just reinventing wheels here!
Liu Tieniu glanced at him and shook his head: "No, you can't do it. You are too old. We don't want people over 35."
