Chapter 88: Set up the Qilin Pavilion, the Great Xia Dynasty, the disaster again, the slaughter of t
Daxia Academy.
Gu Jinnian left the room.
I saw Su Huaiyu not far away.
Still the same aloof.
It’s still the same do not disturb strangers mode.
"Brother Su."
Walking over, Gu Jinnian cupped his hands.
"Congratulations to His Highness, the Crown Prince, for condensing the Nine Refinement Chariot."
Su Huaiyu said with a soft smile, not congratulating at all.
"It's just a virtual thing."
"Brother Su, may I ask what's important?"
Gu Jinnian didn't say much and directly asked Su Huaiyu what was important.
"The world of Xiandao is not peaceful these days. There is a demon who is going on a killing spree. Your Majesty, please be careful."
Su Huaiyu spoke up and told Gu Jinnian about this.
"What does this have to do with me?"
Gu Jinnian frowned a little. The devil was going on a killing spree. It was none of my business. Could it be that I was asked to take action? Deliver food to others?
"No."
"This devil claimed to be your master, so he went on a killing spree."
Su Huaiyu spoke up and explained the reason.
Gu Jinnian: ""
"Isn't this clearly a frame-up? I am a scholar, how can I be involved with the devil?"
"Besides, even if he is my master, why is he killing so much?"
Gu Jinnian felt a little numb.
My own master?
When did I become a demon master?
"He believes that you have eternal talents and will be a giant in the magic way in the future. He is afraid that someone will take the lead and become your master."
"So I went on a killing spree to kill all the powerful men in the world, and then I will let you become my disciple."
"Because at that time, you didn't have a choice."
Su Huaiyu explained.
Gu Jinnian was stunned. This brain circuit was as good as Su Huaiyu's.
Why are they all crazy?
"Who did he kill?"
Gu Jinnian asked.
"The Eight Ancient Demon Sect and the Blood Demon Sect have been slaughtered by him. I heard that recently in the Xiongnu Kingdom, they planned to kill the Xiongnu National Master."
"And it is said that he originally wanted to wipe out the Shangmo Sect, but he met a Huns on the road and then went to the Xiongnu country."
Su Huaiyu said out loud, this is very strange. He obviously would not go to the Xiongnu Kingdom, but he went there again for no reason.
"Has it been slaughtered?"
"What's the point of slaughtering a whole family?"
Gu Jinnian became less and less understanding of this guy's thoughts.
"He does things cleanly and neatly, and usually eliminates the root causes."
"But His Royal Highness, there is no need to worry too much. If he comes to see you, I will teach you a way to save your life."
Su Huaiyu answered and asked Gu Jinnian not to worry too much.
"How to say?"
Gu Jinnian asked.
"Worship him as your teacher."
Su Huaiyu is very serious.
Gu Jinnian was slightly silent. This was really a good idea, although it was the same as not saying anything.
"Is this person very powerful?"
Gu Jinnian continued to ask.
As soon as he said this, Su Huaiyu couldn't help but fell silent. He frowned and then spoke.
"If I come to Kyoto, it might be difficult to take you away by force."
"But freedom of movement in and out of Kyoto won't be a big problem. As long as it's low-key, it won't be too high-profile."
"It is said that he has entered the sixth realm and has entered the seventh realm of martial arts."
"But I never know how strong Mr. Gu is. He must be hiding something."
"It shouldn't be a big problem."
Su Huaiyu said this.
"The sixth realm? Attack the seventh realm?"
Gu Jinnian was a little speechless.
That's really strong.
But fortunately, the other party wanted to accept me as his disciple instead of killing him. This was the best thing among misfortunes.
"It's a pity. It would be great if he could help me deal with those guys."
Gu Jinnian groaned in his heart.
"Brother Su, is there anything else you can do?"
Gu Jinnian asked.
"There's nothing else to do."
"If I have to say it, the national destiny of the Xiongnu country has been undermined, I'm afraid this matter will cause trouble."
"But it has nothing to do with us. Your Majesty, please rest early. Be careful not to be too presumptuous, otherwise."
Su Huaiyu reminded seriously.
"Understood."
"Brother Su, take a rest early."
Gu Jinnian ignored Su Huaiyu, but he didn't go back directly either. Instead, he went to the church to study hard.
God knows if Fairy Yaochi is still at his residence. If she is, Gu Jinnian is really afraid that he won't be able to control it.
It was not until noon that Gu Jinnian went back and took a look. When he found that Fairy Yaochi was not there, he sighed in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face.
Maybe this is a wry smile.
in this way.
Time passes day by day.
This day.
The Great Xia Poetry Festival started again, and it was still as lively as yesterday. Perhaps because of the absence of Gu Jinnian, the Wenxin Hall was a lot more lively. At least everyone dared to write poetry.
Even Wang Fugui also composed a poem, and after Jiang Yezhou read it, he gave a pertinent answer.
Although the poem is not good, it can be seen that Brother Wang put his heart into it.
Without Gu Jinnian, everyone gradually relaxed. Indeed, if Gu Jinnian came to compete today, everyone would withdraw collectively.
It's not to show off to the Xia Dynasty, but mainly because Gu Jinnian is too good. If he comes, he will be like a sun. These people dare not speak at all.
The top spot on the second day was won by a talented person from the Jin Dynasty, but everyone tacitly understood that it had no gold content.
If there is no other reason, there will be no vision.
To say that it was uncomfortable, it was the scholars outside the Wen Palace and the wealthy businessmen in Kyoto who paid a lot of money to stand outside the Wen Palace.
After waiting for a day, I hope to have some vision and witness with my own eyes an eternal masterpiece.
But what I didn't expect was that when it was over, there was no sign of anything unusual. After learning that the talented man from the Jin Dynasty had won the first place, all of a sudden, these men of letters and wealthy businessmen all said that they had been cheated and shouted for their money back.
And the rich and talented man who won today's top prize didn't have much face to see anyone. No one praised him, they all understood it.
The Ministry of Rites saw all this and had nothing to say.
Who made Gu Jinnian so good? If four eternal poems are placed there, who dares to compose them?
However, the event was held as usual without any problems.
On the third day, which was the end of the grand event, Gu Jinnian had been studying peacefully in the academy.
What happened yesterday also made everyone lose their taste. Compared with the grand occasion of the second day, today was a little more deserted.
Gu Jinnian didn't come to the poetry meeting, and it always felt like it was missing a bit of flavor, so it was normal for it to be a bit deserted.
But the good thing is that today's grand event is over. With this idea in mind, everyone is selectively happy. It's impossible to go there with a straight face, right?
In this way, the grand meeting ended, and the ranking was jointly announced by the Minister of Rites and Su Wenjing. Gu Jinnian was absent for two days in a row, but he was still recognized as the number one.
The Kong family has long disappeared.
And this grand Great Xia Poetry Fair finally came to an end.
In these three days, Gu Jinnian's four eternal poems became famous all over the world, especially the affairs between the Gu family and the Kong family, which became the talk of countless people.
However, what people did not expect was that what Gu Jinnian did at the Daxia Poetry Society would be criticized by scholars all over the world.
But for the past three days, everything seemed quiet.
The Kong family didn't say much about this matter. Even the answer given by Chuan Shenggong to the outside world was just a struggle among the juniors without much explanation.
at this time.
Kong family in Kyoto.
Kong Yu was kneeling under the statue of his ancestor, with an ugly expression on his face. Kong Ping was also kneeling beside him. Although he was Kong Yu's uncle, the Holy Father spoke out, so the two of them had to kneel.
The two of them have been kneeling since the end of the first day of the Daxia Poetry Festival. Fortunately, they have good foundations, so kneeling for a few days will not be a big problem.
As long as there is no other punishment, that's fine.
It was at this time.
A figure walked into the hall, it was the figure of Duke Chuan Sheng.
He walked into the hall with a calm expression.
"Do you know what's wrong?"
The voice sounded, without any intention of reprimanding, but the tone was not very good, causing the two of them to fall silent.
"Dad, it's just a child who is aggressive and aggressive. This matter has nothing to do with my fifth uncle. I hope dad can forgive me."
Kong Yu was smart, he didn't pass the blame to others, but took the responsibility himself, and he showed his kindness by getting favors.
"snort."
Chuan Shenggong snorted coldly, he could see what Kong Yu wanted to do.
"The only mistake you made is that you took the lead."
"Being strong and aggressive is nothing. The Kong family has never been afraid of fighting, but this kind of thing should be done by people from the Fuluo Dynasty."
"We, the Kong family, are going to deal with each other again. My father has told me countless times that you have to stay out of anything you do. You can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat, so that there will be no disaster."
"Compared to your brother, you are not as good as him."
Chuan Shenggong rebuked.
He doesn't blame Kong Yu for fighting. It's normal for young people to be competitive, but if he fights himself, isn't he leaving something to say?
If the talented men of the Fuluo Dynasty were allowed to do these things, even if Gu Jinnian was aggressive, the Kong family would still be in an invincible position.
They can also gain a good reputation. Even if they do get into a fight, the more fiercely the Kong family fights, the greater the favor they will gain.
You won't lose anything.
Although the losses have been recovered to the maximum extent, there is no benefit at all. This is what is wrong.
After listening to what his father said, Kong Yu understood clearly.
"My child realizes his mistake."
He opened his mouth to speak, but Kong Ping beside him couldn't help but make a sound.
"Brother, no matter what, even if something is wrong with Yu'er, Gu Jinnian cannot insult the saint."
"I don't accept this matter."
Kong Ping said, he had no other intentions. Gu Jinnian's humiliation of the saint would never end.
"Don't touch this matter yet."
"We will discuss it later when we return to Kong's house."
When Chuan Shenggong spoke, his mind couldn't help but recall every word Emperor Yongsheng said a few days ago.
Immediately afterwards, he stood up and asked the two of them to kneel for a few more hours.
Then disappear.
This matter is definitely not over yet.
The struggle between the Gu family and the Kong family is no longer a power struggle.
It escalated to an academic dispute. He had to suppress Gu Jinnian and make him lose his moral integrity.
It's just that there are too many people staring at the Kong family now, so they need to calm down for a few days.
Walk out of the lobby.
Chuan Shenggong had many thoughts in his mind.
However, no matter what, the Daxia Poetry Fair is over.
Completely ended.
As long as you go back, many things can be implemented.
The national destiny of the Xiongnu country was undermined. This is not a small matter.
There are so many things to do.
He is not in a hurry.
There are ways.
Thinking of this, Chuan Shenggong no longer thought about anything else.
So it went until the next day.
In the twelfth year of Yongsheng's reign, November 19th.
Mao Shi.
Bactrian Palace.
Inside the main hall.
All civil and military officials stood in the main hall with calm faces, holding court meetings as usual.
After the discussion of national affairs in the first half is completed.
At this moment, the figure of the left minister of the Ministry of War appeared.
"Your Majesty, the Left Minister of the Ministry of War has a memorial."
As the voice of the left minister of the Ministry of War rang out, everyone in the hall couldn't help but look at each other.
Everyone knew that something was coming.
"Accurate performance."
On the dragon throne, Emperor Yongsheng spoke in a calm tone.
"His Majesty."
"A spy from the northern border came to report that in the past half month, looting incidents have occurred frequently on the border. As of yesterday, money has been robbed from seven villages, and two of them have been massacred, with a total population of 457 people."
"The general guarding the border has sent a report, hoping that your majesty will allow him to lead an army of three thousand to kill the invading bandits."
Zuo Shilang spoke and handed over a memorial at the same time.
Wei Xian took it and handed it to Emperor Yongsheng.
The latter opened the memorial and after reading it, his face immediately turned cold.
"How did the Huns respond?"
In the border areas, things like this often happen, but generally speaking, they are robbing cattle, sheep, money, and massacring villages, which is a bit bad.
"Back to Your Majesty, the Huns responded that this matter was not done by them, but by some bandits."
"But the border general reported that it was the Huns who were wearing my Daxia clothes and disguised themselves."
The left minister of the Ministry of War gave the answer.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yongsheng had no reaction. This kind of thing happened in previous years for the same reason.
If you can't find any evidence, it's really difficult to attack.
"What do you mean, my dear friends?"
Emperor Yongsheng did not answer, but looked at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and asked aloud.
Once you say this.
The ministers did not speak. After thinking for a moment, the Minister of Rites, Zuo Shilang, spoke up.
"His Majesty."
"I believe that border riots occur all year round, but the massacre of villages is so outrageous that we can ask the camp to send 3,000 people to patrol day and night to see if they can catch these Huns."
"If we can catch him, we can still negotiate like this. If we can't catch him, we can also effectively prevent the massacre and looting of the village."
The left minister of the Ministry of Rites said, this is his suggestion.
However, the left minister of the Ministry of War immediately spoke.
"Your Majesty, I don't think it's appropriate. Robbery on the border does happen from time to time. However, if you plunder cattle and sheep, the court will compensate you. The people have no complaints. However, if a village massacre occurs, if you still sit back and do nothing."
"I'm afraid I will lose the support of the people on the border."
"Therefore, I believe that we should send a large army to patrol secretly. If anyone is discovered, we will kill them without mercy. We will not give up an inch on the border. Firstly, we can demonstrate the prestige of our country in Daxia. Secondly, we can warn the Xiongnu people that if this matter is really related to the Xiongnu,
It can be an effective deterrent even if it has nothing to do with the country. If it has anything to do with the Huns, I, Daxia, are not afraid."
The left minister of the Ministry of War spoke up.
You've already been bullied to your face, why are you still here to defend yourself?
"No."
"Although this matter is hateful, if we attack with such force, it will definitely trigger a strong counterattack from the Huns."
"At that time, more people will be slaughtered."
"We should use gentle methods, otherwise if we don't get it right, war is very likely to start."
The Minister of Rites, Zuo Shilang, refused directly.
He was not cowardly, but he considered the feelings of the people on the border. They were famous for their cavalry and could come and go freely. Even if the Great Xia Dynasty sent three thousand elites, they might not be able to do much.
It doesn't matter if you chase me and waste time.
But if we really kill him, it will cause trouble, and it is very likely that the two countries will go to war.
"The knife is on your face, what's there to be afraid of?"
"Fight, your majesty. I sincerely request your majesty to declare war. Our Daxia dynasty is now strong in military strength. This time the national destiny of the Xiongnu country has been undermined. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We will take this opportunity to send troops to the Xiongnu."
"When the time comes, the whole country will definitely cheer. With this support from the people, we will be able to fight the chaos and regain the lost territory."
The left minister of the Ministry of War spoke up and asked Emperor Yongsheng to start a war.
As soon as these words came out, all the generals spoke.
"I agree."
Today's court meeting was their own purpose. The massacre of the village was just a trigger.
I saw the group of generals speaking together.
The civil service group can no longer sit still.
"Your Majesty, we must not start a war. There is not much money in the national treasury right now, and there is still a lack of funds to repair the Yongsheng Ceremony. The crisis in Jiangning County has not yet been completely stabilized. There is another drought in Liaozhou. Heavy rains in the three southwest counties have destroyed many crops. The harvest in the coming year will be inevitable.
Sharp decrease.”
"There are also flash floods in the Longzhong generation, and natural disasters in Pingfu in Dongchuan. Every place needs silver to rescue them. Once a war starts, the Daxia Dynasty will not be able to bear it without an absolute chance of victory."
"Your Majesty, please think again."
The left minister of the Ministry of Rites opened his mouth and told one thing after another.
"Your Majesty, please think again."
The other civil servants spoke one after another. Except for Li Shan, who remained silent, the other civil servants spoke to stop him.
On the Dragon Throne.
Emperor Yongsheng was somewhat silent.
He glanced at the civil and military officials of the court, and after a moment, he spoke slowly.
"The Ministry of War prepares for war. If the situation becomes serious, prepare for war."
"The Ministry of Revenue strictly collects grain and grass, controls grain prices across the country, and prevents looting."
"The Ministry of Industry will inventory the military supplies and transport some to the north."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke. He did not directly agree to fight, but this preparation for war instantly caused an uproar.
"Your Majesty, this is not possible."
"Your Majesty, you must not do this."
"This battle cannot be fought, otherwise Daxia will be dragged down."
Several ministers became anxious and knelt down directly, begging the emperor to change his mind, especially He Yan, who said with a sad face.
"Once the war starts, the food, grass and military requirements are astronomical. After the three armies are rewarded, the national treasury is directly empty. The Yongsheng Ceremony cannot be completed within ten years. There are natural and man-made disasters everywhere, so there is no money to allocate. Please think twice, Your Majesty."
He Yan began to settle accounts. He was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, so he could only use this as an excuse.
"I did not agree to war."
"But preparations for war cannot be stopped. Don't cry to me here."
"The Huns have deceived me. If the Yongsheng Ceremony is not completed, we can exchange it for the twelve cities. I will agree to it."
"That's how it's settled."
"As for whether to start a war, we will discuss it in three days."
"Retreat from the court."
Emperor Yongsheng sneered.
When it comes to war, we cry and cry, we don’t have enough money, we don’t have enough money.
Isn't that official down here talking a lot behind his back? Although the general direction is correct, and what He Yan said is also true, there are countless reasons why there is no war?
Once the war starts, there will be domestic turmoil, which will affect the circulation of money and a series of other problems.
In this way, these people will also be affected.
From their point of view, it is a good thing not to go to war. The country is peaceful, the weather is smooth, everyone makes money, hello, me, everyone.
But what about those people?
Can the people on the border endure the humiliation and bear the burden?
As for the impact of the war on the people within the country, this is even more of a joke. Isn’t it because these officials want to be corrupt and pervert the law because they rely on a stable era?
If there is a real war, you don't dare to mess around. Before fighting outside, you must first settle down inside. Eyes are watching you from top to bottom.
Emperor Yongsheng is also considering it.
It's just that I'm angry when I see these people acting like this. None of them are good people.
Compared with his nephew, he is a waste, every one of them is a blood-sucking maggot lying in the Great Xia Dynasty.
Emperor Yongsheng is gone.
The civil servants were left looking at each other, while the generals were overjoyed. Although they knew that the emperor did not fully agree, it was a good thing to at least have this idea.
If a war really breaks out, their power can be enhanced and they will have more say in the court.
In the future, civil servants will be popular, and they know this.
But taking advantage of the fact that I still have rights now, I can completely arrange for my descendants to be properly arranged.
For them, the benefits are great.
Finally, all the officials retired from the court and left the palace.
Yang Kai immediately took He Yan and Hu Yong to the Prince's Mansion.
Let the prince persuade your majesty.
However, the news in the court gradually spread.
Daxia intends to start a war and points its sword at the Xiongnu. In theory, such a big event should not be spread out. Anyone who spreads the news will die. If such a big thing is spread out in advance, it is not a joke.
All the officials were not stupid, they were careful in their words and deeds.
There are many spies from the Hanging Deng Division and the Zhenfu Division in Kyoto, but no one is looking for death.
But the news just spread, and I don’t know who took the lead.
After the news came out, the people applauded. For the people in Kyoto, war is not a bad thing. No matter how hard the war is fought, the people in Kyoto will still live the same life.
Those who can make a living in Kyoto will never suffer because of the war.
This is the advantage at the emperor's feet.
Suddenly, everyone in Kyoto was discussing this matter. For them, fighting was a good thing and it showed national prestige.
Even some stages immediately changed the music to songs about war.
But for many people, this is not a good thing.
The next day.
The Kyoto Dibao was published, and the massacre of villages on the border was very eye-catching.
When the people learned about this, they were filled with anger.
The massacre of villages is against the laws of nature. Many massacres of villages occurred during the civil war in Daxia. At that time, environmental issues were still tolerable.
Nowadays, the Great Xia Dynasty is flourishing, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the prosperous times are approaching. If something like this happens, how can the people not be angry?
Some literati even wrote poems to criticize the Xiongnu.
The desire to fight gradually started to burn like a spark in a prairie fire.
But the news spread too quickly, and it was obvious that someone was adding fuel to the flames, trying to make the people angry and force the court to go to war.
Emotions brewing.
Daxia Academy.
Go inside the church.
When the Kyoto newspaper came, these students also began to curse.
"These Huns are really beasts. They dared to massacre villages when I was in the prime of Great Xia? Are they really tired of living?"
"Hate has not yet become a general, otherwise I will trample the Huns with my horse."
"These little Xiongnu bastards, if one day I become a general and break through the royal court, behead the king and destroy the country."
Angry voices sounded one after another.
Go inside the church.
Gu Jinnian couldn't help but frown while looking at this Kyoto residence newspaper.
Because this is a little unusual.
The Huns should not be so stupid. It is normal to loot silver and money, but the massacre of villages is somewhat unnecessary.
Daxia was powerless to steal cattle, sheep, and silver, so he could only take more precautions, and he couldn't afford to cause any trouble.
But at this juncture, the Huns slaughtered the villages. This was Chi Guoguo's provocation to Daxia.
It's totally unnecessary.
More importantly, the national destiny of the Xiongnu country has been undermined. Logically speaking, it should be better to keep one's tail between one's legs?
What's going on?
Are you really not afraid of Daxia sending troops?
Although Daxia's treasury does not have much money, it is really exaggerated to put down everything at hand to fight with you. It is a bit exaggerated to go straight to the royal court, but taking this opportunity to recapture the twelve cities is not a big problem.
It's nothing more than paying a certain price.
"If my grandpa, the emperor, doesn't kill all these bitches, one day, after I ascend the throne, I will definitely lead my own troops and conquer them myself, leaving my name in the royal court."
Li Ji on the side spoke.
He had been in the Prince's Mansion a few days ago and was called back to give him a lesson because of matters involving the Kong family. In Li Ji's words, his father didn't have enough to eat and the beating was not particularly harsh.
I just returned to school yesterday.
After all, after going to the Kong family for the first time and forming a feud, everyone knew that the Daxia Poetry Society would fight with the Kong family.
The prince asked him to go back to avoid causing trouble, which was reasonable.
At this moment, Li Ji was sitting aside with a fierce expression on his face.
Snapped.
Gu Jinnian was a little scornful after giving Li Ji a slap on the head.
"You're such a stupid person, you still want to take the royal court directly?"
"For professional matters, let professional people do it. Don't just think about what you have. How about a personal expedition? If something goes wrong and you are captured alive by the Huns, the Great Xia Dynasty will be over."
Gu Jinnian said very seriously.
Li Ji is a boy with a strong head and a strong brain. He is quite smart, but he is just a little clever. If he really wants to command the three armies and lead the army himself, it will probably be for nothing.
If you are unlucky and get caught, you will be in trouble. Eternal jokes aside, the Great Xia Dynasty will really vomit blood.
A certain god of war is an example.
"Uncle Jinnian, don't forget that I am not good at studying. I have no problem riding a horse and shooting arrows, and I have not fallen behind in martial arts. Moreover, I have learned the art of war from the emperor since I was a child. In time, I will definitely conquer the royal court."
Li Ji was a little unconvinced.
If you say he can't study well, he admits it.
But if you say that he is not good at war, he really doesn't admit it.
"Okay, then let me ask you, you lead an army of 100,000 people and face an enemy army of 100,000 people. There is a river in front of you. After the soldiers crossed the river overnight, their morale is low. What should you do? How can you let them hug you?
Go into battle with a death wish?"
Gu Jinnian looked at Li Ji and asked such a question.
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes couldn't help but cast their eyes over, and everyone was very curious.
"I will promise that after this victory, I will reward the three armies and those who are brave will be promoted to high positions."
Li Ji spoke without any hesitation.
After hearing this, everyone nodded. It was a very common method, but it was very effective.
"Then you'd better take a shower and go to bed."
"It is good to be promoted to officers and nobles, but once the battle is defeated and the morale of the army is shattered, it cannot be solved by adding officers and nobles."
Gu Jinnian continued to read the Di newspaper.
Is this the level?
Should we leave it here and go straight to the Royal Court? The Royal Court of the Void?
"Uncle Jinnian, tell me, what would you do?"
Li Ji was a little dissatisfied.
The others were also very curious, wondering what Gu Jinnian would do.
"It's very simple. Just smash all the pots, sink all the ships, and then promise all kinds of benefits."
Gu Jinnian is very casual.
As soon as he said this, everyone frowned.
Why smash the pot?
But immediately, Jiang Yezhou's voice sounded.
"It's a waste of time. I understand. Smash the pot and sink the ship. Let the soldiers go to war with the mentality of winning or dying, and then give various rewards. The morale will be high, high, high. Brother Jinnian, I have never
To think you have such an understanding of the art of war."
Jiang Yezhou's father was Ye Yihou and a military general.
He also knew something about the art of war, so he was naturally deeply shocked by what Gu Jinnian said.
The rest of the people also gradually came to their senses, and each one of them looked amazed.
"Hey, Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to know the art of war? That's amazing."
"Wen can use his pen to bring peace to the world, and Wu can mount his horse to settle the world. Your Royal Highness, I admire you."
"Have you forgotten? His Royal Highness is the grandson of Duke Zhenguo, so he naturally knows the art of war."
"Yes, yes, forget about that."
Everyone gathered around and praised Gu Jinnian in every possible way.
It has to be said that Gu Jinnian has already conquered these people with his strength. As long as he does something, these people will come over and praise him.
"Brothers, your words are serious."
Gu Jinnian smiled, then coughed slightly and looked at the crowd.
"Everyone, Gu actually has an idea. I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
Seeing how enthusiastic everyone is, I can't help but bring up what I was thinking about yesterday.
"Your Highness, please tell me."
"Yes, yes, your Royal Highness, please tell me."
"What do you think?"
Everyone was curious.
Gu Jinnian didn't waste any time and spoke directly.
"It's like this. In fact, since the Great Xia Poetry Society, Gu has discovered that reading still requires mutual discussion to make progress. However, due to his status, it is inevitable that there will be some unspoken secrets."
"So, Gu thought for a night, we can set up a society. If you join the society, everyone will help each other. No matter what your status is, whether he is a prince or a prince, if you join the society, you will become a family and become brothers."
"The rich help the poor."
"I wonder what you think?"
Gu Jinnian opened his mouth and said this.
As soon as these words came out, almost everyone in the school showed joy, and even the four cultivators who had been invisible for this period of time couldn't help but come over.
However, Xu Changge never appeared. I don’t know where he went. Anyway, I haven’t seen him since he condensed the fairy roots.
"This is good."
"Your Highness, this is a good suggestion."
"I never thought that the prince would have such an idea. I am willing."
After hearing this, everyone was naturally happy.
After all, Gu Jinnian is the heir apparent, so it must be good for them.
However, Gu Jinnian also suppressed everyone's enthusiasm and said seriously.
"Everyone, if this association is to be established, Gu has three requirements, which can be regarded as rules."
"Let's discuss it after everyone listens."
After suppressing everyone's enthusiasm, Gu Jinnian became more serious.
"First, those who join the association must not bully the weak, help each other internally, respect superiors and love inferiors, and externally must act benevolently and righteously, and be low-key and modest."
"Secondly, those who join the association cannot rely on any power in the family and rely on their own strength to become an official or general. Otherwise, relying on the clan members will be suspected of forming a clique."
"Third, those who join the association are a family. If someone makes a mistake, they should be dissuaded in time and must not cover each other. If someone really does something bad, he will be severely punished and expelled. But if someone is wronged, everyone in the association should be expelled together.
, Don’t be greedy for life and afraid of death, and don’t be afraid of power.”
"So, are you willing?"
Gu Jinnian made three requests.
The first rule is very simple, don't be high-profile, do what you need to do, maintain your gentlemanly demeanor, and don't attract bad guys.
The second rule is simpler. You are not allowed to rely on family background. The reason is for no other reason. Gu Jinnian is the most powerful person in Daxia. In fact, he does not need to rely on other people's influence at all. He does this because he wants a group of truly powerful and talented people.
Otherwise, what's the use of bringing in a group of powerful people? They might be tricked to death that day. Only when everyone has the ability can they secure their position. No matter how big the family background is, they are not as powerful as themselves.
It's just like a kid from a rich family. Although he goes out with fine clothes and fine food, he really can't come up with 10,000 taels of silver. After all, he's not the one with the money.
The last one is bundling. If something happens in the future, everyone will work together. After the interests are bundled, the subjective emotions will directly change.
"Your Highness, if there are not these three rules, I would not think anything of it. With these three rules, I really admire His Highness, and I am willing to participate."
"Yes, that's a good thing to say without relying on family connections. We don't want to rely on family background and become a figure on our own. This is the only way to have dignity."
"Indeed, Your Highness, I don't know why, but I'm very excited. We will help each other in the future, and with our strength, we will definitely impress the tribe."
After listening to the three requests made by Gu Jinnian, everyone became even more excited and joyful.
To be honest, these powerful people actually find it quite uncomfortable sometimes. No matter what they do, others will say, "Can he do it if he doesn't have this background?"
It is undeniable that their background has brought them too many benefits, but if they are useless people, it is impossible to come to Daxia Academy.
It's just that people don't recognize them and always like to call them who they are and who they are.
Gu Jinnian's three rules are exactly what he wants.
Therefore, everyone is more enthusiastic.
Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Gu Jinnian was a little surprised, but looking back, it made sense. After all, these people were teenagers at heart, and they all desperately wanted to be recognized.
"Okay, if that's the case, then Wang Fugui and Brother Wang will register the list, and Gu will design the jade shape and make it our accessories. We will work hard for each other in the future."
"You can also go to the other two schools to promote something, but no matter what, you have to be a gentleman. Regardless of status, status, or talent, as long as your heart is right."
"Gu is not talented, so I will take over the responsibility of being the leader for the time being. If there is a wise man in the future, I will take the initiative to give in."
"But let me say something in advance. After joining, if you choose to quit voluntarily, you will never record again, so you should think carefully."
Gu Jinnian spoke.
Since everyone is in such high spirits, there is no need to worry about being left alone, but there is still a restriction that must be added. If you take the initiative to exit after entering, you will never be able to come in again in this life.
Otherwise, you can advance when you want and retreat when you want, which is just a fool's errand.
"good."
"Yes, this is the rule."
"Brother Jinnian, what is our club called?"
"Yes, yes, what is it called?"
Everyone nodded, completely agreeing, but they were more curious, what would this be called?
"Qinglong Club, what do you think?"
Gu Jinnian is a bad namer.
Somewhat embarrassed to speak.
Everyone: ""
Damn, everyone is a powerful person, either the son of a minister, the son of a minister, or the son of a noble family.
He can be considered a respectable person, right?
Qinglonghui? Why does it look like a Jianghu gang?
"Brother Jinnian, can you change it? This name is really a little bit..."
"Yes, brother Jinnian, let's change it."
"Brother Jinnian, you are so good at writing poems, how can you choose a name like this?"
Everyone couldn't say much, so they could only force themselves to smile and speak.
Seeing everyone's reactions, Gu Jinnian had an idea.
After thinking about it for a while.
Gu Jinnian had an idea.
"How about Qilin Pavilion?"
"I can't think of anything else, so you guys can do it."
Gu Jinnian thought of one, Qilin Pavilion.
"This is acceptable."
“Both the refined and the popular, it’s no big problem.”
"Qilin Pavilion is very domineering, I like it."
"Yes, yes, quite domineering."
Everyone nodded in agreement. In fact, Qilin Pavilion is not that elegant, but compared to Qinglong Club, it is much better.
Naturally they all agreed.
"good."
"Brother Wang, please register one or two."
Gu Jinnian patted Wang Fugui on the shoulder.
The latter quickly agreed.
But Gu Jinnian continued to speak.
"By the way, you can't just join the cabinet. You have to do two things to officially join the cabinet."
"First, the so-called teachers are famous, we are not forming cliques, but helping each other, imitating the sages, benefiting the people, accumulating good deeds ten times, standing up for the people or helping people in need, all of them are counted as accumulating good deeds, and we have ten talents. To be admitted to the cabinet, one must have a complete background and must not cheat. Once discovered, he will be expelled directly."
"Secondly, we are not allowed to rely on the help of the clan to earn one hundred taels of silver and pay the palace fee. All of it will be calculated by Brother Wang. From now on, we will be paid for our travels, flowers and jade, and we will continue to strive for self-improvement."
Gu Jinnian made two more requests, which were considered two small tests.
As soon as he said this, everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, they thought it was quite fun and very motivating.
"Uncle Jinnian, I will also participate."
At this time, Li Ji spoke with excitement on his face.
"OK."
"Count you in, but you have to follow the rules."
"Well done, I'll let you be the deputy master."
Li Ji wanted to participate, which Gu Jinnian couldn't ask for. In any case, this was suspected of forming a party for personal gain. Emperor Yongsheng didn't care, but what about the next emperor?
If Li Ji was involved, it would be a protective umbrella after all.
And hearing that Li Ji was also joining, everyone wanted it even more.
Li Ji was also very excited. Deputy Pavilion Master, damn, does this feel better than the emperor?
"Okay, Brother Wang, please handle it carefully. This important task is entrusted to you and you can't make any mistakes."
Gu Jinnian looked at Wang Fugui and said.
The latter was very excited.
How could he not understand that Gu Jinnian was taking care of himself?
If you register yourself, you will be deemed to have rights and belong to the senior management of Qilin Pavilion.
He was very moved in his heart, but he didn't say anything. He just nodded heavily. He wanted to get this matter done not only for Gu Jinnian's sake, but more importantly for himself.
It was at this time.
A cough sounded.
It belongs to Su Wenjing.
With the appearance of Su Wenjing, everyone returned to their seats and stopped smiling slightly.
Su Wenjing walked in.
He heard clearly what happened just now, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, he took some files and came to the main seat.
"One person can be a teacher for a day has come to an end."
"This time Daxia Academy, the ranking of students has also come out."
"This is the list, you can watch it yourself, I won't say anything else."
Su Wenjing opened his mouth, then threw out a piece of rice paper and suspended it in mid-air for everyone to watch.
Ranked first is Gu Jinnian.
This is not surprising.
But ranking second, Su Huaiyu is a bit weird.
In the school, Su Huaiyu didn't seem to have any interest in this ranking. He didn't even have the slightest interest in the Qilin Pavilion just now. He kept sitting there, extremely cold.
"Master, is this ranking based on teaching?"
Someone spoke up and asked about Su Wenjing.
After all, this ranking is more than second. It feels a bit weird overall. Some people should not be ranked so high, and there are other people's names who are not going to the church.
"No."
"Do you still remember that on the first day you went up the mountain, two officers detained the prisoner?"
Su Wenjing opened his mouth and mentioned what happened when he went up the mountain.
"Remember."
Everyone answered one after another that they all remembered this.
"Well, based on your answers, the Ministry of Punishment asked officials from various places to do it one by one."
"The answer given by Gu Jinnian made the local officials hunt down all the bandits."
"That's why it ranks first."
Su Wenjing said neither salty nor blandly.
As soon as he said this, the whole hall was in an uproar.
It's not that they were surprised that Gu Jinnian came first, but that no one expected that Daxia Academy was actually playing for real?
Most of their answers at that time were to behead him without giving him a chance.
But I didn't expect that it would really happen.
As expected of Daxia Academy, it is really terrifying.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Su Wenjing was very satisfied.
"One day, all of you will become officials in the court, or one of your parents will be an official, or you will be a high official in the border area, or you will be a general in the country."
"But you must remember that no matter what you do, you must think twice, especially after you become an official. Every order you give cannot be taken back. If something goes wrong, you will have to bear the responsibility."
"The person ranked last has been expelled from Daxia Academy."
"He chose to send people to collude with the bandits in an attempt to obtain intelligence clues, but the result was that the bandits remained wary, pretended to surrender, and instead of escaping from the prison, they killed each other and disappeared without a trace."
"Although the government arrested him again, the government officer is already dead. This is the consequence."
Su Wenjing said calmly.
The announcement of the last place result moved everyone present.
Even Gu Jinnian couldn't help but be moved.
This is really a profound lesson.
"okay."
"When you go back, think about this carefully."
"Now, I have five files from the Ministry of Justice in my hands. This is the topic for the second month."
"These five files have been finalized, but I want you to give a summary in one month. Whether there are any mistakes in the files, or whether the penalties are heavy or light, you must treat them carefully. If there are any mistakes, you will report them and close them."
"Seven of you will form a group, discuss with each other, and summarize your opinions. I need at least five people to agree before submitting the paper, and give corresponding reasons, and I will finally review and approve it."
"You each choose reviewers in these two days, and you can gather up to seven people."
Su Wenjing spoke.
It also tells what the topic will be in the second month.
This kind of subject is really unique and arouses everyone's curiosity.
"Get someone together to come find me in the study."
After saying this, Su Wenjing stood up and left as quickly as he came.
Leave everyone behind to form a team.
And at the same time.
Daxia Kyoto.
A figure quickly entered the military headquarters.
His face was extremely ugly.
"Report from the border."
"Last night last night, thirteen villages on the border were massacred, leaving no one alive."
"The patrolling officers, in anger, led 300 elite soldiers and killed 200 Xiongnu soldiers. They were later captured alive by the Huns and their heads were displayed to the public."
The voice sounded.
In the inner hall of the Ministry of War.
Several figures instantly glared angrily.
"It's so fucking outrageous."
"These beasts."
"Do you really think I have no one in Daxia?"
"Let's go to the capital to see the saint."
"If anyone dares to stop me again, I will pluck out his skin."
The roar of the Minister of War was heard.
It shocked everything in the hall.
in this way.
Half an hour later.
One after another, the eunuchs walked out and headed to the Baiguan Mansion.
His Majesty was furious.
Summon all officials to the court.
In the Yang Mansion.
Upon learning of the sudden call, Yang Kai couldn't help but frown, secretly thinking that something was wrong.
After questioning the officials and roughly learning some things, Yang Kai couldn't help but take a deep breath.
His face was extremely ugly.
"It's them again?"
Yang Kai looked ugly. After a while, he turned around and returned to the house, immediately wrote a letter and handed it to the housekeeper.
"Send it to the Zhenguo government office immediately."
"It must be handed over to the Duke of Zhenguo."
Yang Kai spoke out, extremely serious.
Something big is going to happen this time——
There is no update for today.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
I recommend a very creative book.
"Global Hearing, I Became Qin Shihuang's Defender"
I actually finished reading it, even though the title is a bit long.
But the writing is really beautiful and the emotions are well captured.
It's very cool. If you like cool articles, you can read it. It's not a friendly recommendation.
Really not, I only recommend it because it looks good.
