Chapter 876(1/2)
The true meaning of pretending to be stupid
In fact, there are really not that many coincidences. The problems Liu Ying encountered happened to be arranged by the great Confucian scholars.
The purpose is of course not for anything else but to maintain the orthodox status of Confucianism.
"Li", that is, system, is one of the cores of Confucianism. The actions of the great Confucianists were naturally extraordinary. They did not give direct answers, but put a realistic question in front of Liu Ying.
Elves are a reality, military wives are a reality, and even dudes who come to visit and retired soldiers who work as bodyguards for wealthy families are also a reality. When these factors are exposed to the public, there must be a solution to deal with it.
.
That is, as the country becomes stronger, the status of alien species, the status of Koreans, Japanese, etc., and how to identify the status of retired soldiers.
This standard of identification must be formulated by Confucians. Only by grasping this source can Confucians sit more firmly on the throne of orthodoxy.
These great scholars did not deliberately plan the situation, but just went with the flow. An incident full of coincidences unfolded in front of Liu Ying.
Everyone knows that there is a problem, but this problem arises in reality and must be solved. From this perspective, these great scholars can be regarded as caring about the country and the people.
However, their move can be regarded as a formal declaration of war on Legalism, and they plan to attack the legal system first. Since you advocate the rule of law, let's see which of our systems is more clever.
"Teacher, our move won't offend Chen Xi, right?" A disciple of the Confucian scholar raised his own doubts. They were observing and planning to make next adjustments based on Liu Ying's reaction.
"Pah!" The great scholar took out the ruler with a displeased look and slapped the disciple's palm hard.
"Teacher, please calm down. Disciple understands his mistake!" The disciple was confused for a moment and quickly admitted his mistake. The Confucianism of today is not the Confucianism of the past. Nowadays, people can do things without making a fuss. Seeing his teacher's body covered in flesh, he was afraid first.
Three points.
"Children, do you know where you went wrong?"
The great scholar sighed, why did the environment back then seem to be in ruins? After recruiting such ineffective disciples, now we have to go back and rebuild it with all the effort.
"I don't know!" The disciple hesitated for a moment and then answered honestly.
"First, Chen Zichuan is the current prime minister and a great sage in the world. How can you call him by his first name when you have neither merit nor official title?"
"Secondly, we have done nothing but put the reality in front of His Highness."
The great scholar looked at his disciples who were not enlightened and felt quite melancholy. He was extremely envious of Lu Zhi's disciples, including Yizhou Mu and General Baima. Looking at his own disciples, he wished they could all be stuffed into a blast furnace and redone.
.
Seeing the disciples seem to understand but not understand, the Confucianism is not gone anywhere.
"Go back and copy the classics ten times! You are not allowed to go out until you finish copying!"
Watching his disciple go away, the great scholar shook his head, and then continued to focus on the excitement.
This is another plan. If Liu Ying does not perform well enough, they can also find two teachers to teach Liu Ying Confucian classics.
It would be best if Lu Zhi could be given to Liu Ying as a teacher, and the head of the Confucian school would also serve as the emperor's teacher. If this tradition could be continued, their Confucian status would be more stable.
In fact, Chen Xi noticed this sign. After all, his father-in-law Cai Yong was one of the great Confucians, and he had already been angry with him overtly or covertly.
However, what Confucianism adopts is all conspiracy, or upright and healthy competition, and Chen Xi has no way to suppress it, which will only dampen the enthusiasm of various schools of thought.
However, Chen Xi is happy to see the results. Hundreds of schools of thought are contending, and the most important thing is the word struggle. As the saying goes, the truth becomes clearer with more debate. How can we make progress without arguing?
However, competition is competition, and it would be terrible if it develops into vicious competition, and then it becomes a battle to destroy orthodoxy, which would violate their original intention of relaunching the contention of a hundred schools of thought.
Therefore, Chen Xi strictly stuck to a red line, and those who crossed the red line were directly handed over to Jia Xu for processing.
A person's name is like a tree's shadow. Ever since everyone knew that Chen Xi had handed over the punishment to Jia Xu, they immediately felt a lot safer.
Putting aside Jia Xu's infiltration information, the mere possibility that Jia Xu had killed the prince actually frightened them. He dared to kill even the prince, including a great scholar.
…
"Little lady, this is the third time our young master has come to visit us. It's your blessing that our young master has taken a liking to you. Don't be disrespectful!" said the bitch with a proud look on his face.
"These are all betrothal gifts, accept these and come with my young master!"
"I refuse. Even if I die, I will not marry him!" Tears rolled in the eyes of the forced elf girl, but she resolutely rejected the other party.
"Then don't blame us for being rude! Come on!" the loser ordered, but the guards behind the playboy ignored him at all.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward, and the loser's face was a bit unbearable. He looked back angrily, and was instantly relieved by the indifferent eyes of the guard.
He almost forgot that these people who came today were the retainers hired by their master, not the former servants. He could only look at his young master.
"Ariel, do you really want to reject me? The boss lady can't protect you! It's your blessing to give me a concubine!" The playboy's words full of superiority made the whole place fall into silence.
But the people who eat melons don't think there is anything wrong. In this era, the people of the Han Dynasty themselves are superior to others. This is the arrogance engraved in their bones.
When facing Goryeo, Hu people, and foreign merchants, the Han people were always full of a sense of superiority, because the Han people were their strongest backing, and being located in Luoyang, they were not afraid of any threats from outsiders.
As the dandy said, it is indeed a blessing for a foreign race like an elf to marry a Han Dynasty commoner, but in other words, they cannot stand the evil behavior of a dandy, just because the target is an elf.
They are foreign barbarians, so no one has taken action yet.
Because the laws of the Han Dynasty protect the people of the Han Dynasty, although these elven barbarians do look quite beautiful, they also have concerns about what is going on.
After all, foreign barbarians are not considered human beings. This concept has been rooted in the hearts of Han people for some time.
If they were women from good families in the Han Dynasty, the dandy boys would have their heads smashed. In the Han Dynasty, which was a martial arts house, and in the imperial capital of Luoyang, if a brick was dropped, some strong man might come out.
The last time I met Cao Cao, the Sikong of the current dynasty, it really taught a lesson to the children of all families, even the children of the aristocratic families. Their behavior has restrained a lot under the education of the family. After all, you may not be able to
They didn't want to bet on the probability that they would run into some important executive.
Once the secret is revealed, it doesn't matter if you know the other person. When the matter gets serious, it turns out that the other person's official position is higher than that of your father. This is not a direct scam.
Liu Ying was eating the melon with great interest. She actually held an ice-cold watermelon in her arms before eating it. She didn't learn much about the ability to fight with internal energy outside the body, but she learned a lot about those fancy secret techniques.
"Your Highness, this..." Mu Guiying couldn't stand it anymore. She was a very aggressive person. When she saw a bully teasing a decent woman, she would punish him on the spot.
"Look again!" Liu Ying reached out to stop her and continued to watch the bloody drama unfold with interest.
It has to be said that this was the first time Liu Ying saw a playboy, which also gave Liu Ying more ideas in her mind, whether she should go out to play more in the future.
No, no, no, it's not a game, it's a private visit incognito, to discover the truest side of the people under your rule.
In fact, Liu Ying is not stupid. She has already seen the problem. The opposite is a script, but it is not completely acted. It can be regarded as the essence of a common phenomenon. Even the two leading actors do not know that they are scripts.
.
There is no way, Liu Ying herself has good qualifications, coupled with the superior resources of her status, even if she is forcibly promoted to become a spirit-separated person without practicing anything, it is not a strange thing to develop a spiritual talent.
Liu Ying herself has the best resources, and everyone can ask for advice from famous teachers. In addition, she usually comes into contact with first-class people. Under the influence of what she has heard and seen, her IQ has naturally increased.
The playboy's expression was uncertain. He instinctively felt that something was wrong, but it was hard to get off the tiger. If he really couldn't defeat a foreign barbarian, then he would be completely disgraced in the Luoyang circle.
Besides, his own purpose is not very pure. He has never seen any beautiful women. In his eyes, the novelty of the elves is really not as good-looking as the girls from Jinyulou and Jiaofangsi.
He came here for the technology of elves, a handicraft. Although it was just a simple technology, the elders of the family got a glimpse of a new system from it. Their real purpose was this.
Just like no one in an aristocratic family in the past would object to the large collection of books in their own family, now they naturally would not object to the large number of technologies inherited from their family.
"Come on, I have to take her back today even if I rob her!"
The young man in light-colored satin finally decided to take action. To be honest, he didn't know why his family master had to let him forcefully marry an elf back home, but now it was about his own face, so he had to take action.
Fortunately, the guards following him today are retired soldiers hired by his father. They are so powerful that any elves will definitely take them down if they take action!
"Let's see who dares!" The shop owner finally stood up and kept silent because she was afraid of causing trouble for Ju Yi and the elves.
But now it was really unbearable. She couldn't watch her people being taken away without saying a word. How could she lead the team in that case?
Looking at the long sword in the proprietress's hand, the young man became furious.
Hiding weapons privately is not a serious crime. The martial culture determines it. Who doesn't have a sword hidden in their home these days?
"Fuck me!" the young man shouted angrily.
"Huh?" Hua Mulan and others were stunned as soon as the guards took action.
He was obviously a veteran of hundreds of battles, and maybe he was retired from the dual-talented army. Under the clouds that filled Luoyang, more than a dozen people cooperated, and the elves were defeated steadily.
The fighting power of the elves themselves is average, and those who can fight are all left on the grassland to manage pastures and deal with ferocious beasts. The elves left in Luoyang are all old, weak, sick and disabled. They have not been exposed to fighting in Luoyang for a long time, so their fighting power is naturally weak.
Pitiful.
However, these veterans knew very well and did not resort to lethal means. If anyone was killed on the street, they would all be arrested by the urban management team and taken in to drink tea.
As for the fight, just pay a fine and it will be settled. If it really comes to that, they will have the advantage. What is their identity and what is the identity of the elves.
"Stop everyone, put down your weapons!"
The two sides fought fiercely, and Luoyang's urban management team arrived at the scene not long after.
But they also encountered difficulties. It was their job to maintain order and protect the Han people, but as mentioned before, foreign barbarians were not considered human beings, so they really didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
Originally, at a time like this, a few words of reprimand and a fifty-fifty hit from both sides would be enough.
Playboys don't take control of things, and elves don't take responsibility for status. Let's just mediate this matter.
But the problem is that the captain of this urban management team is a soldier who retired first. If you come to Ju Yichen's shop to cause trouble, isn't it just a slap in the face that they were first retired?
"Captain, how about we take them all back?" The team members clearly saw the captain's hesitation. This kind of matter has no legal basis and is really difficult to handle.
"But..." The captain hesitated. He could see further than the team members. If he really took it back, it would probably be detrimental to the elves.
"Okay! I've just seen the scene here, and I finally understand it!" Liu Ying threw the watermelon in her hand into the void, clapped her hands and said.
To be continued...
