Chapter Fifty-Fifth: The Winds and Clouds Rise in Kyoto, A Confucian Official Is Shocked! (Part 2)(1/2)

"Jiang Han, you don't deserve to be a son of a human being. You beat your teacher and humiliate our Imperial College. Do you still have any humanity?"

"Dandy Jiang Han, you are disloyal by writing a book to humiliate me! Teachers are like parents, and you are unfilial by beating them! How can you survive in heaven and earth with such an unfaithful and unfilial appearance!"

"Jiang Han, come out if you have the ability!"

As Wang Yuan recited the limerick, there was even more abuse outside. Some unsuspecting people were provoked by others and started to curse too.

In the palace of Duke Wei.

"Madam, no! These people have been bewitched. Even if you come forward, they will never let it go." Chen He stopped Madam, shook his head and said.

Suddenly something yellow and white was splashed in from outside the courtyard, followed by a foul smell, and several maids screamed.

It turns out that someone poured excrement and water into Duke Wei’s mansion!

The eldest lady was furious and said: "How dare they throw such disgusting things into Duke Wei's palace!"

Chen He also frowned, with anger appearing on his face.

Fortunately, the scholars were more polite in their scolding, but the common people were completely unaware of it. After being bewitched, they could curse all kinds of obscenities, and even dared to throw excrement into the Duke Wei's palace!

Although the Duke of Wei does not want to be charged with killing scholars, he cannot be bullied like this!

"Where are the soldiers!" Chen He shouted coldly, his voice shaking the big trees in the courtyard to rustle, and the aura of killing on the battlefield filled his body!

He no longer had the old and amiable demeanor, but switched to a veteran who fought and killed!

Tap tap tap!

As Chen He's voice fell, the gate of the Duke of Wei's Mansion opened, and the soldiers were dispatched. All of them were armed and armed. When they walked out of the Duke of Wei's Mansion, a fierce and murderous atmosphere instantly filled the air!

The expressions of the scholars and people outside the door suddenly changed. Many people looked fearful and wanted to retreat.

After all, they just heard about it and started to make noises. They were frightened when they saw this kind of attitude.

Those who threw excrement water also threw away their excrement buckets and hid in the crowd.

Chen He's hawk-like gaze swept across the crowd and shouted: "This is the Duke of Wei's palace. If you gather a crowd to cause trouble in front of the Duke of Wei's palace, then you think the Duke of Wei's palace has no sword!"

Click!

Three hundred soldiers of the government drew their swords in unison, and the light of the swords shone brightly!

Many people suddenly showed fear and couldn't help but retreat. Only then did they remember that the place they were surrounding was the Duke Wei's Mansion!

Wei Guo Gong Jiang Zhensheng was a very ruthless person back then!

His elite subordinates are all fierce generals who can fight against a hundred!

There were once hundreds of Fan monks who caused chaos in the western Liaoning area, robbed the Xia people's money and property, killed people and set fires everywhere. Jiang Zhensheng led only thirty soldiers to the western Liaoning area, killed all the rebel monks and hung their heads high. They even went deep into the hinterland and chased Fancheng to the west. They killed the monks so much that they did not dare to step into the borders of Daxia for more than ten years!

The name of Weiguo Gongjiang's trembling sound is unparalleled for a time.

Who do they think they are? How dare they surround Duke Wei's mansion?

For a while, many people resented those people who threw shit.

Really, just scold me, why do you still need to throw excrement water at me?

At this time, Wang Yuan walked out slowly and said in a loud voice: "General Chen! I am a scholar. I came here today to ask for justice from Jiang Han in your mansion for the beaten Li Fuwei and Li Xuezheng!"

"General Chen ordered the soldiers to draw their swords. Could it be that he wanted to kill all the scholars like us?"

"Is it possible that the Duke of Wei now doesn't even look down on scholars and even the Imperial Academy? He will humiliate them if they want, and kill them if they want to."

"In this case, I, Wang Yuan, am willing to be the first to be killed by the sword!"

Wang Yuan raised his head and held out his chest, as if he was looking forward to death.

His words were both an accusation, a threat, and a reminder.

In an instant, many scholars suddenly realized, yes, what am I afraid of? No matter how powerful the soldiers of Duke Wei's palace are, they would not dare to kill students in broad daylight!

No matter how powerful Duke Wei is, he would not dare to bear such a crime!

Chen He was extremely angry. He knew what Wang Yuan had planned. He was just using scholars to coerce the people and force the Duke of Wei to admit his mistakes!

But he really can't order the soldiers to kill people. It's true that Duke Wei's Palace is a top-notch palace, but if he kills the princes and supervisors in broad daylight, Duke Wei's Palace will inevitably be destroyed.

Today's emperor only respects Confucianism and Taoism, so you kill Confucian scholars? Do you want to go against the emperor?

"Chen He, if you want to kill someone, we are not afraid!"

"Yes! Kill us if you can!"

"Let Jiang Han, an unfaithful and unfilial person, get out!"

"Get out!"

"The Duke of Wei will never dare to use his soldiers to kill people, don't be afraid!"

The dozen or so scholars at the front immediately started cheering loudly.

When the people behind saw this, they also started shouting.

Chen He's face became darker and he glanced at Wang Yuan with a sharp look.

This person should be the leader!

The Minister of Rites criticized the master in the court, while his son led people to make trouble in front of Duke Wei's mansion. It was indeed a good trick!

It seems that today they will not give up until they tear off a piece of flesh from Duke Wei's mansion!

At this moment, a voice sounded from not far away: "Quiet!"

After the sound rang out, a man wearing Confucian robes also walked into the crowd.

"It's him! The great scholar from Taixue Academy, Chu Yunqi!"

"Chu Daru is here."

Many scholars recognized Chu Yunqi and moved out of the way. The original noisy voices also calmed down a lot.

Chu Yunqi usually teaches at Taixue University and is considered the most well-known Confucian scholar in Kyoto. Many Confucian students want to be his disciples, but unfortunately Chu Yunqi has never accepted a disciple.

Wang Yuan narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists.

As expected, Chu Yunqi accepted Jiang Han as his disciple!

This is where Jiang Han comes to the rescue!

Chu Yunqi's eyes fell on Wang Yuan and he spoke slowly: "Why did you gather in front of Duke Wei's mansion?"

After Zhou Hu rushed to Taixue Academy and explained the situation, Chu Yunqi started reciting a quick poem.

Seeing the situation at the scene, Chu Daru also understood in his heart that someone was inciting public anger and criticizing Jiang Han.

"Nine out of ten people who came to the scene did not know what was going on and were deceived into coming here..." Chu Yunqi was a little worried.

Everyone's mouth speaks louder than gold.

This matter is indeed difficult to handle!

"Hello, Mr. Chu! I am the son of Wang Zhongze, the Minister of Rites, and I am accompanying His Highness the Crown Prince Wang Yuan!"

Wang Yuan came out and announced his identity.

"Today we are here to seek justice for my master Li Fuwei! To ask Jiang Han for his crime!"

Chu Yunqi said: "How can we seek justice? What crime does Jiang Han have?"

Wang Yuanlang said in a loud voice: "Jiang Han has ten crimes! Please listen to me, great scholar!"

"The first crime is to insult the teacher and despise Confucianism. Li Fuwei was Jiang Han's teacher, but he was insulted and beaten by him in the street. This is contempt for Confucianism and Taoism!"

"The second crime is that he wrote a book that disturbed the law! Jiang Han wrote a book called "Red Mansions". The book went against the grain. Men and women were reversed, and yin and yang were not distinguished. He actually said that women are better than men. This is a huge rebellion. How dare he do this!"

"The third crime is to humiliate your Majesty! He compiled bad words about His Majesty in the book and secretly cursed His Majesty today. The evidence is conclusive and there are books to prove it!"

"The fourth crime is advocating Long Yang! Xue Pan has a habit of Long Yang in the book. Jiang Han's move is to promote good things and destroy Yin and Yang. The crime should be punished!"

"The fifth crime is to show off! Selling books out of order at the gate of the Imperial College..."

"The sixth crime is beating the court official and contempt of the king's law..."

"The seventh crime is being arrogant and arrogant. He calls himself the greatest poet in the Xia Dynasty, but what does he think of the scholars in the world?"

"The eighth crime is that he has a withdrawn personality, has bad relations with many of his classmates, and has a bad reputation."

"The ninth crime is to compete with the people for profit, but the son of a dignified prince opens a bookstore to compete for the people's profit."

"The tenth crime is stealing someone's literary name! His name has not been known for more than ten years, but his literary reputation has become very popular. We suspect that all his previous poems and essays were ghostwritten by others! Otherwise, why would Jiang Han have not written for more than ten years?

There was a poem that even led to him being expelled from the Imperial Academy, but in one day, he had an amazing talent?"

Wang Yuan's voice sounded loud and clear, instantly arousing the emotions of the people around him.

"What qualifications do such young people have to stay in Kyoto?"

"Get him out!"

"I now suspect that all the poems he wrote were stolen from me, because they are very similar to a poem I once wrote!"

The scholars hugged each other forward and shouted accusations.
