The expressions of everyone present suddenly changed.
I originally thought that the delicious food and drinks in Liangzhou Prefecture today and the high standard of treatment were to express my apology to them, the scholars.
Many people also felt that if Liu Zhizhou was willing to give in, they would not embarrass Liu Zhizhou too much - they would just reimburse the expenses incurred when he came.
Unexpectedly!
He needs to be tough!
Looking at Liu Zheng and his group, everyone is holding a lot of books in their hands. The meaning is self-evident, Liu Zheng, are you going to fight with the heroes?
The deans of the four major academies also frowned.
The atmosphere at the scene instantly became eerily quiet.
People couldn't help but look at each other.
After Liu Zheng, Qing Yangshuo and his entourage came over, he stood on the podium, looked around, and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, first of all, on behalf of Liangzhou Prefecture, Liu Zheng welcomes everyone to gather in Liangzhou. Regardless of the purpose,
Finally, countless scholars from all over the world have gathered here, which is quite rare. Liu Zheng has been busy compiling new books in the past few days, so he has no time to receive you all and extend his friendship as a landlord. Liangzhou has always respected scholars, so in the next seven days,
You can enjoy your time in Liangzhou, and all expenses will be borne by the Liangzhou government!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place became lively.
Liangzhou Prefecture pays the bill?
Is there such a good thing?
Don't tell me, they are in Liangzhou these days, but they have really seen how prosperous Liangzhou is. Many people have a mentality of not thinking about Shu. They have to stay in Liangzhou for seven days, and they don't have to spend any money.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have your own money?
atmosphere!
Liangzhou Prefecture is full of atmosphere!
Many people smiled and nodded.
But some people did not appreciate it and snorted coldly: "Does Liu Zhizhou want to buy us with money? Do you think that this will make everyone ignore your sinful behavior of resisting Confucianism and insulting the saints!"
"Yes! Don't even think about it!"
"Liu Zhizhou, you must give everyone an explanation for this matter!"
"What's the difference between what you do and a traitor who forgets his ancestors?"
A group of people also started shouting.
Traitor?
Liu Zheng laughed bitterly after hearing this. Literary men are good at killing people with soft knives. This is indeed true. What happened to him that he became a traitor?
He waited for the commotion in the audience to stop for a while, and then smiled: "This is exactly why Liu Zheng gathered everyone..."
"Hmph, do you want to admit your mistake?"
"Too late!"
"Don't try to bribe us!"
"The character of a scholar cannot be insulted!"
Many people, while secretly carrying the exquisite cakes in their pockets, shouted indignantly.
The dean of Yuelu Academy also laughed, stroking his beard with his hand, and said: "Recognizing mistakes can greatly improve things, but Liu Zhizhou's argument is so rebellious. I am afraid that no scholar in the world will accept Liu Zhizhou's apology.
ah......"
"yes!"
"It's better to let Liu Zhizhou fund the construction of more Confucian temples and spread Confucianism!"
"right!"
"Only in this way can the world be brought to peace..."
A group of people chatted and gave Liu Zheng advice.
They had already decided that Liu Zhizhou would definitely give in to them.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zheng chuckled and changed his tone: "However, Liu Zheng has no intention of apologizing today. In fact, Liu Zheng believes that the decay of Confucianism is the shackles of our Longyan Dynasty's stagnation for many years! Today, Liu Zheng gathers the world's literati
, is to break the corruption of Confucianism, the dogma of Confucianism, and the ignorance of Confucianism!"
These words were like a bomb dropped in the crowd.
