Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 350 The Defense of Tokyo 38
Chen Dong didn't take it very seriously. It is true that he admires Wang Xiu, but admiration and adherence to ideals are two different things. At least he will not wrong his own ideals for Wang Xiu. , then the scholars of the world should know that the emperor is bright and his ministers are wise, and the people of later generations will also praise the officials who are sages and wise, the prime ministers who are broad-minded, and govern the country with benevolence."

Qin Hui and Fan Zongyin looked at each other and smiled, feeling ridiculous at Chen Dongzheng's shallow views. If it were as simple as Chen Dong said, there would be no wars or divisions.

Wang Xiu frowned slightly, shook his head lightly, and said, "Your Majesty has his own conclusions about Li Xianggong and Zhong Xianggong's appointment. Today's son is a sage, and he should take care of himself. Tens of thousands of people gathered at the palace gate to make noise. This is not the same as coercing the court and threatening Your Majesty." What's the difference? If you have the strength to make a fuss, it's better to be armored and sharp, and compete with the captives."

The dialogue between him and Chen Dong and the other three was clearly heard by hundreds of Tai students. In the past, with his talent and achievements, he had faintly become an idol in the hearts of some Tai students.

At this time, they found that the idol seemed to be on the opposite side. Some people hesitated, thinking that what Wang Xiu said was reasonable. Tens of thousands of people gathered at the gate of the palace. No matter how you say it, they were gathering crowds to make trouble and threaten the emperor. It is better to accept it as soon as it is good!Don't end badly at that time.Some people were filled with grief and indignation, and even wrote masterpieces on the study of the mind, and even Wang Xiu, who broke the barracks of the captives, was not the leader they imagined, and their sense of resistance became stronger.
But no one took the lead in speaking, no one got up or made trouble or left first. Since they decided to share honor and disgrace when they came, the first to make trouble is the first bird, and the first to retreat is the coward. Either they are taken down first, or they are ridiculed by others. No one wants to Do No.1.

Everyone, more or less, has all kinds of thoughts, and no one wants to be the first.

However, no one had any intention of opposing the imperial court, and many people were still in a state of confusion regarding their request.Wang Xiu's last question made it difficult for Zhong Lirui, Ouyang Che and other eloquent people to answer.

Yes indeed!Go and fight the Jurchen if you have the ability, don't engage in internal strife all day long, although it is sophistry, it goes straight to the deepest part of people's hearts, both sides block you tightly, leaving you no room for maneuver.

"Scholar, how can he be like a martial artist." Chen Dong was speechless.

"Couldn't Wu Fu be a human being?" Wang Xiu's face changed, and his eyes suddenly became sharp. He didn't expect Chen Dong to say this. His contempt for warriors made him unbearable, and he said sharply: "Scholars are human beings, and warriors are also human beings. Who is guarding the border day and night, and who is fighting with captives outside the city? The six arts of archery and imperial defense are all martial arts. Which of you can do it?" Fierce horse, draw a strong bow?"

"I think that even you claim to be the children of Confucianism, and you haven't learned the essence of the master's academics. You all look down upon yourself and despise warriors wantonly. It's really pedantic."

"Your Excellency is also a scholar, how can you?" Chen Dong blushed.

"So what about scholars? I get on my horse and ride alone in the formation. I get off my horse and splash ink. If you say I am a literati, you can say that I am a warrior. Who can do it? If you want to make trouble, okay! There are tens of thousands of captives outside the city, who can do it?" Recite a poem to defeat the enemy, and I will immediately turn around and petition for you."

What a joke, reciting a poem to retreat from the enemy, you thought it was the Daluo Immortal!What Wang Xiu said was crazy, but he said it very frankly. People have the ability to be crazy. If you don't accept it, you can also use your ability to make others speechless.

"Everyone, you should be concerned about important national affairs, and you should appeal to the two ministers for their grievances, but it is absolutely not advisable for you to gather a crowd to make trouble." Wang Xiu saw that the heat was almost here, and her tone became much softer, and said softly: "The imperial court has reinstated the two ministers. You can rest assured that if you continue to make trouble, you will do bad things with good intentions!"

A pun, smart people can understand the key point, let Zhao officials see that the prestige of Li Gang and Zhongshi Dao has reached the point of threatening the imperial power, how terrible this is, the emperor will not hesitate to eliminate the threat again.

Zhong Lirui looked at Chen Dong hesitantly, his heart was shaken, involving the family law of the emperor's ancestors, it was definitely a restricted area for literati, Ouyang Che also looked away, his expression wavering from side to side, Chen Dong was blushing, caught in a dilemma middle.

"Let's get out of here before things get serious, things will turn around." Seeing that everyone was hesitant, Wang Xiu hurriedly persuaded them
At this moment, Wang Shiyong hurriedly led fifty or sixty officials. When he saw Wu Min there, he immediately stepped forward to pay respects. The officials dispersed and confronted the Tai students.

Wang Xiu just wanted to say something, but he hesitated, his lips moved twice, and finally swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

Wang Shiyong and Wu Min greeted each other, turned around and took a few steps forward, shouting proudly, "You are so bold, you dare to gather a crowd to threaten the Son of Heaven."

Zhong Lirui looked down on Wang Shiyong very much, and sneered: "It is better to hold the emperor with loyalty than to hold the emperor with treachery."

Wang Shiyong was furious, his fat face turned red, and he shouted sharply: "Little scholar, how dare you insult me."

"I'm talking about things, what should I say about my lord?" Zhong Lirui smiled badly, and seemed to suddenly realize: "Oh, it seems that my lord still has self-knowledge. I really did it unintentionally. I hope my lord will forgive me."

There was a burst of laughter in the crowd, those students who are too proud of the sky are not afraid of ministers at all, Wang Shiyong is so stupid to the extreme, how can they not be despised by them, even Chen Dong can't help laughing, Wu Min can't help but secretly Call Wang Shiyong a fool.

Wang Shiyong became angry from embarrassment, pointed at Zhong Lirui and stomped his feet, gnashing his teeth and roaring: "Come on, come on, take this guy down for me."

The gentlemen came up one after another, wanting to capture Zhong Lirui.

Seeing that Wang Shiyong was rampant, everyone was very angry, nearly a thousand people surrounded him one after another, smashing the gentleman into pieces, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

"Kill that thief Wang Shiyong to death."

"The government has arrested people."

"Don't let Wang Shiyong run away."

Seeing the crowd rushing over, Wang Shiyong saw that the situation was not good, so he ran towards the Donghua Gate, everyone was outraged!Even if he was punched by one person, he could be beaten to death at the gate of the palace. He didn't want to lose his life here.

Wang Xiu looked angry and funny, because Wang Shiyong was ignorant of current affairs and self-willed, and the students and common people who had just calmed down were annoyed by this guy again.What's funny is that the dignified ministers of the imperial court are running around like rats, with no regard for decency. It's really embarrassing!

"Everyone, stop, stop, listen to me." Wang Xiu stood in front of the Tai students and was almost hit.

Zhang Qiyuan hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to stand up, but finally stopped.

"My lord, Wang Shiyong should be beaten, why stop him?" Chen Dong stopped and looked at Wang Xiu with some dissatisfaction.
