Daxia Wensheng

Chapter 64 The Great Xia Dynasty Meeting, Yongsheng's Wrath, Conspiracy Reappeared, Students' Wrath

Daxia Kyoto.

Inside the main hall.

Hundreds of officials gathered.

The whole hall is a little solemn.

It's just that no matter what, as long as it's not a matter of urgency, the first half of the court is often spent talking about state affairs.

The second half of the time is to talk about things that everyone cares about.

The flood in Jiangning County is a major event, and it is a major event right now, so it is reasonable to occupy the latter half of the time.

Within half an hour, the six ministries took the lead in speaking, and after speaking out some domestic affairs and government affairs, it was up to Emperor Yongsheng to make a decision.

Wait half an hour later.

The scene fell silent again.

It's all brewing, waiting for the first person to break the deadlock, or for the emperor to speak.

It's just that Emperor Yongsheng has been silent for a long time.

In the end, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry stood up.

"Initiate Your Majesty."

"The number of refugees in Jiangning County has reached more than 200 million, and the number is increasing by more than 50 people every day. The local memorial informs that the rice merchants in Jiangning Prefecture are driving up the price of grain, all of which are around 120 taels of silver per stone."

"Even just yesterday, a rice merchant raked in money and raised the price of grain to 260 taels of silver. This was unprecedented in the prosperous years."

"I implore Your Majesty to issue an order to punish the officials of Jiangning County and limit the price of food. Otherwise, this situation will cause panic in the surrounding counties and cause great disaster."

The left servant of the Ministry of Industry made a sound.

Let's put the matter of Jiangning County on the bright side.

In fact, everyone present knew it, and Emperor Yongsheng on the dragon chair naturally knew it a long time ago.

The skyrocketing price of food is reasonable, after all, under the flood.

But 260 taels a stone, this is unreasonable, it is too dazzling, how can it be worthy of the word prosperous age.

However, hear this statement.

Emperor Yongsheng was only slightly surprised, and looked at Baiguandao.

"Is there such a thing?"

"260 taels of silver and one stone of rice?"

He looked surprised, but all the officials were silent, obviously not wanting to cooperate with the acting.

"The floods in Jiangning County brought countless refugees. This is really against the laws of nature."

"However, natural disasters and man-made disasters cannot be avoided. Jiangning County is a full three thousand miles away from the capital, and the local officials will also judge themselves. I intend to inspect the capital next month and set up a banquet for officials at that time, so I can interrogate carefully."

"After all, it is such a natural disaster. I believe that you are the servants of the Great Xia, so you will not be corrupt and pervert the law. There must be some difficulties in this, but no matter what, as long as the people are saved, I can deal with it according to my discretion."

Seeing that the ministers did not cooperate with his acting, Emperor Yongsheng did not continue to pretend.

The general meaning is also very simple, I know the matter, but what can I do?You have no idea, and the local officials can only do this. It is impossible for these officials to conjure food, right?
Just this answer, not the answer some people want to hear.

260 taels of silver and one stone of grain, which in itself is shocking, is not a good thing for these people.

The emperor wants face, and his courtiers also need face.

When something like this happened during the prosperous years, what face do these high-ranking officials have to say that they serve the country and the people?

Don't look at them as first-rank, second-rank and third-rank high officials, in the capital, they are extremely human ministers.

But after going out, scholars from all over the world may spray them into what they look like.

The emperor can be bad.

The courtiers can't be bad.

"His Majesty."

"That's a bad word."

At this time, the right servant of the household department stood up, bowed to Emperor Yongsheng, and then took out the memorial.

"Officials from Jiangning Mansion are here to report."

"Although the refugees are gathered like a sea, there is a lot of food in the mansion. All the rice merchants have accumulated food, which can be relieved for at least three months."

"If it can be delayed for three months, the main road will definitely be repaired and perfected, and the soldiers sent by the imperial court can also send food to Jiangning County."

"Furthermore, the harvest has already begun, and the prefectures, counties and townships in various places have also made preparations. Right now, we only need to stabilize the refugees and provide disaster relief to solve all the troubles."

"So I believe that the main reason for the price increase of rice merchants is the laziness of local officials."

"Of course, in the face of natural disasters, manpower is exhausted. This kind of reason is also normal, but no matter what, you shouldn't be so indulgent."

"Your Majesty has a plan to quell the chaos caused by the grain disaster. Your Majesty only needs to draw up an order to suppress the price of grain, and send imperial envoys to Jiangning Mansion to discuss with the local rice merchants together with the governor of Jiangning County."

"According to the reasonable price, the purchase of grain and rice is to ensure food stability and not lead to civil uprisings. Second, each takes a step back and lives in peace. When the situation is completely stable, then bring this matter into the issue of Beijing inspection to prevent similar incidents. It happened again."

Hubu Youshilang gave a long speech, and finally stated his purpose and his thoughts.

This is the mouth of the right servant of the household department, which is actually the meaning of the household department as a whole.

In other words, the Ministry of Households is willing to put money.

All of a sudden, Baiguan's expression changed slightly, and the household department let go, and many things were indeed easy to handle.

Don’t rice merchants just want silver taels?
If the Ministry of Households is willing to give it, then it can be negotiated, and there is no need for swords and swords. The only price is that the treasury will lose money.

But this is also something that can't be helped, who made such a thing happen this year.

"Oh?"

"Let the rice merchants lower the price? This is a good way, but how much is it?"

Emperor Yongsheng was a little interested. He sat on the dragon chair, not angry, and stroked his beard, a little curious.

"I think that 12 taels of silver and one stone is just right."

The latter spoke up and said a number.

12 taels of silver, that is, double the normal price of grain, if you say it is expensive, it is still very expensive.

But under natural disasters and man-made disasters, it is really not particularly expensive, and the market price is no problem.

It's just that after hearing this, Emperor Yongsheng immediately understood.

He nodded, looked at the right servant of the household department, and then said.

"One stone of grain in Jiangning Prefecture is usually six taels of silver. It stands to reason that during this bumper harvest, it should be reduced."

"But now there is a natural disaster, and if there is a man-made disaster, double it to them."

"Tsk tsk tsk these days, traders really know how to do business, six taels for one stone, at least [-]% of the profit."

"Now it's 12 taels and one shi. Let's do the math. Two or three million refugees want to eat more than 300 shi a day."

"That is to say, the profit of 10,000+ taels of silver per day can't continue to increase. If all the refugees in Jiangning County are concentrated, it will be more than tripled. That is to say, their profit will be 50 taels in just one day. silver."

"For the imperial court, one day is an expenditure of 80 million taels of silver."

"Counting all kinds of expenses in a month, it is as high as 4000 to [-] million taels of silver. I am afraid that [-] million taels of silver will not be enough for three months."

"Okay, okay, it's really good."

Emperor Yongsheng muttered to himself to settle accounts.

But once the account was settled, everyone lowered their heads involuntarily.

They felt that Emperor Yongsheng was already very angry.

"His Majesty."

"This is the best way, it will never happen"

The latter bit the bullet and continued to speak.

But the next moment, Emperor Yongsheng slapped the handle of the dragon chair, his voice full of coldness.

"To shut up."

"What kind of bullshit strategy, I think you are full of interests, I'm afraid those businessmen in Jiangning Mansion are related to you?"

"Twelve taels of silver and one stone, do you dare to say that?"

"The money from the national treasury can be used for disaster relief, but if it is given to those businessmen, wouldn't it encourage unhealthy trends?"

"Come here, drag him down and send him to the Department of Hanging Lanterns, and let me investigate carefully to see if he has colluded with these traders."

"Are you really bored with the idea of ​​raising the national treasury?"

He roared, the power of the emperor spread out, and all civil and military officials changed their expressions at this moment.

As for the right servant of the household department, it was like being struck by lightning.

He didn't expect that he would cause such a big trouble by proposing a strategy. What is the concept of being sent to the Xuandeng Division?
Even if the result of the thorough investigation is nothing, I still have to die. In addition, once the director of Xuan Deng conducts a thorough investigation, he will not only investigate this matter thoroughly, but also investigate all other matters.

How many officials in the Great Xia Dynasty were clean?
If you have to investigate this, if your official career is gone, the whole family will also suffer. How can he not panic?
But before he could speak first, Hu Yong came out.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

"Lin Shilang is worried about the country, and racked his brains to come up with such a strategy. Although it has flaws, it is ultimately serving the court, worrying about the country and the people."

"Please, Your Majesty, calm down."

Hu Yong stood up, and he spoke like this, pleading for the latter.

There is no enemy or not in the court, the main thing is to be right and wrong. Even though Hu Yong and He Yan are in the opposite relationship, everyone agrees on this matter.

If you just sit back and do nothing, or even add insult to injury, it will be of no benefit to everyone, and no one will continue to bring up this matter.

This is not good for oneself, nor good for others.

So when Hu Yong stepped forward, He Yan's people pleaded for mercy. One day when something happened to Hu Yong's people, He Yan would also come forward to help. As long as the core interests are not affected, everything else is easy to talk about.

"Your Majesty, please appease your anger."

At this time, basically all the civil officials spoke together, pleading for the right servant of the household department.

But most of the military officers remained silent.

This matter has nothing to do with them directly, and they don't have any interests. Of course, the civil servants will plead for mercy, and they will not make trouble, after all, they have not harmed their own interests.

It is impossible to count on them to help.

Facing this scene.

Emperor Yongsheng snorted coldly, his eyes were cold and fierce.

"When Taizu rebelled, one was the harsh taxation, and the other was the greed of the merchants, so that my father and emperor had no relatives or reasons."

"Under today's flood, you want me to negotiate with a group of businessmen? Oh, it really gave you great courage."

"I will tell you today, not to mention 12 taels of silver, even if it is six taels of silver, I will not give you three taels of silver."

"Right now, the harvest is imminent, and the monster is dead. At most half a month, a large amount of food and grass will be transported to Jiangning Mansion."

"That way, no one will starve to death."

"As for these traders, they only earn a few days of silver taels."

"And there is a good policy at this time, and I have implemented it, so there is no need to say more."

Emperor Yongsheng was very domineering.

In their eyes, these words revealed two meanings.

The first is not to negotiate peace with traders.

The second emperor really wanted to attack these businessmen.

Whatever it was, those were not the outcomes they wanted to see.

But to everyone's surprise, this well-established policy is a bit weird.

"Your Majesty, may I ask what is the good strategy?"

"I don't see the floods slowing down."

At this time, a Confucian official opened his mouth and directly asked what is a good strategy.

"The good policy has been implemented, and it doesn't take too many people to know it. It will be understood after a while."

Emperor Yongsheng didn't explain it, he just asked all the officials to wait for a few days to find out.

But the Confucian official still spoke directly.

"Your Majesty, may I ask which official offered this good policy?"

He continued to ask, breaking the casserole and asking the end.

"My nephew, presented by Gu Jinnian."

"anymore question?"

"If there is no problem, the right servant of the household department will be dismissed and investigated."

"Retreat."

He finally answered one sentence, making Baiguan silent.

Not only did he firm up his mind, but he also made an example of others. As for the person who offered advice, in their opinion, didn't he just make up a cover?

But Emperor Yongsheng had retreated and left, and he didn't give them any chance.

All of a sudden, Baiguan really didn't know what to say.

Let's look at the fate of Hubu Youshilang again.

Being dismissed and investigated for just one sentence, it is inevitable to feel a little bit sad. Although being with the king is like being with a tiger, it is indeed a bit scary.

Especially He Yan's complexion became extremely ugly.

This is his man.

Now that he was directly dismissed and investigated, his life was completely bleak, and he would have to suffer many interrogations and tortures, which made him restless.

What's more important is not this, but that this idea was brought up by himself, what His Majesty has done, is he going to beat himself again?
Do you suspect that you are colluding with traders?

If there is such doubt, it is truly terrifying.

soon.

Hundreds of officials retreated.

He Yan looked a little dignified, and at this moment, Hu Yong's voice sounded from the side.

"He Shangshu, can you go to the small courtyard for a talk?"

He opened his mouth and said calmly.

"it is good."

He Yan looked at Hu Yong, then nodded.

Then everyone left.

After half an hour.

Hu's small courtyard.

Hu Yong and He Yan sat facing each other, with a jug in front of them.

He Yan poured a glass and drank it in one gulp, still looking dignified.

"He Shangshu, do you know what's wrong with what happened today?"

He opened his mouth and asked He Yan.

"What's wrong?"

He Yan looked at the other party and asked directly.

When Hu Yong asked him to get together, he must have something to tell, so he was also curious about what Hu Yong wanted to say.

"The key point is wrong."

"You shouldn't make a fuss about Jiangning Mansion."

Hu Yong spoke calmly and pointed out the key issues.

"Who doesn't know about the affairs of the Jiangning Mansion? Civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty don't know? We can know, but wouldn't His Majesty know?"

"Your Majesty has been silent, which means that he doesn't want to mention this matter, after all, those traders are involved."

"Whoever makes a fuss at this juncture will be suspected of colluding with traders."

"So, that's the root of the problem."

Hu Yong spoke out slowly, pointing out the key point.

"If you don't make a fuss about Jiangning County, who will you make a fuss about?"

He Yan was a little upset.

Things have happened, so what's the point of saying that?
"A few days ago, didn't someone offer advice?"

"Is the current situation in Jiangning County related to this suggestion?"

"It's pointless to make a fuss about those officials in Jiangning County."

"It doesn't make any sense to make a fuss about refugees and traders."

"Whoever came up with the idea and who to trouble, that's the key."

Hu Yong spoke out, but his words were very cryptic.

But the latter couldn't help frowning, he knew what the other party meant in an instant.

It is Gu Jinnian's policy that the emperor made it public today.

In other words, Hu Yong let himself make a fuss about Gu Jinnian.

He was a little wary when he heard this.

After all, who doesn't know that Gu Jinnian is just a cover, what strategy can he offer, isn't it the emperor's own strategy?Find someone random and irrelevant to stand on top, and no one will be held accountable if something goes wrong.

"If you make a fuss about him, I'm afraid it will cause some unnecessary troubles?"

He Yan frowned and said so.

"Do not."

"Master He, Your Majesty uses Gu Jinnian as a cover, just to eliminate the influence."

"You and I both know what His Majesty really means, so there's no need to pretend to be confused, but what you and I know even more is that if His Majesty is really ruthless in killing people, there will be civil strife in Great Xia."

"Your Majesty is warlike and fierce, which is a good thing, but when it comes to governing the country, the murderous intent should not be too heavy. If we want to stop it now, we must let His Majesty know the attitude of all officials."

"So we must make a fuss about Gu Jinnian, because Gu Jinnian is a chess piece of His Majesty, a chess piece to test me and other officials. If we stay silent, this knife will fall on the necks of countless people."

"If I wait to criticize severely, His Majesty will not be too murderous, and many things can unfold slowly."

"And Mr. He, someone will speak first tomorrow. The old man's meaning is very simple. At the critical moment, Mr. He will stand up and say a few words tomorrow. I don't need to wait."

Hu Yong took a sip of his wine and smiled.

"Let's look at this matter in detail."

After hearing what Hu Yong said, He Yan didn't agree, but gave a vague answer.

But what Hu Yong said is indeed reasonable.

And Hu Yong didn't continue talking, just smiled and talked about some other interesting things.

only.

In Daxia Kyoto.

Indeed, a lot of rumors have spread.

The main reason was caused by the national movement poem a few days ago.

Gu Jinnian's writing of national fortune poems naturally attracted the attention of the scholars in Kyoto.

And precisely because of this, other students from Daxia Academy not only publicized the National Games poems, but also publicized Su Wenjing's praise of Gu Jinnian's advice.

At first, these scholars all praised Gu Jinnian for his brilliant talent, but there were also some people who were jealous and envious.

It's just that Gu Jinnian's excellence made these people find no excuse to reprimand him.

But as the situation in Jiangning County became more and more serious, some sour remarks gradually emerged.

But what really attracted the attention of these scholars was after the early dynasty.

Emperor Yongsheng personally admitted that all disaster relief plans in Jiangning County were based on the advice of Jinnian.

Some clever officials guessed why.

They knew that Emperor Yongsheng was just looking for a chess piece. After all, Gu Jinnian has been in the limelight recently. There are articles from the ages before, and poems about the fate of the country later.

It's best to use him as a cover. If something goes wrong, the big deal is that although Gu Jinnian is talented, it's a pity that he is too sharp.

Nothing happened, Gu Jinnian was rewarded for his meritorious service.

Moreover, with so many things happening in Jiangning County, the military generals group didn't say a word, which is a bit of a problem, so it is generally believed that all these are the agreement reached by Zhen Guogong, Su Wenjing, and Emperor Yongsheng.

As for Gu Jinnian, he just came out to brush his face.

But what if the officials know?Definitely won't say it.

But most scholars are different, young and energetic, what do you like most?Isn't it about avenging justice for the people, talking about morality and keeping quiet about the people?
Gu Jinnian was originally a dude, but suddenly he became the number one talented person in Daxia. Do they accept it?
Some people are convinced, basically everyone who sees Gu Jinnian is convinced.

But most people are not convinced.

Why not accept it?
Because who is behind Gu Jinnian?It's the Duke of Zhen.

The mentality of hating the rich is something that has never changed since ancient times, and a dude suddenly became the number one talented person in Daxia.

Especially this dude is still the top dignitary in Daxia, do you think there is a possibility that someone helped Gu Jinnian to build momentum?

The answer is obvious, very likely.

It's just that I can't find a reason to complain. After all, Gu Jinnian is a rich man, and he hasn't done anything harmful.

Recently, the reviews have been good, and everyone has nothing to say.

But is there a reason now?
Have.

There are millions of refugees in Jiangning County, and rumors are spreading that when they reach the capital, it is some kind of change, and the people are in dire straits.

Although the facts are not so exaggerated, they are not far behind.

Today came the news that Jiangning Mansion sold grain at a sky-high price of 260 taels of silver, and when it reached the mouths of the people, you passed it on to me, and I passed it on to you, and it became 1000 taels of grain for a stone.

This group of scholars immediately exploded.

Aren't you, Gu Jinnian, the number one talented person in Daxia?
That's it?

This is your suggestion?
Let the price of food soar to 1000 taels of silver a stone.

It wouldn't be like this if a pig was in command, would it?

And even more outrageous rumors have come out.

The Right Minister of the Household Department proposed to negotiate with the rice merchants in Jiangning Prefecture to suppress the market price and allocate funds from the treasury to purchase grain, thereby alleviating the pressure on the government.

As a result, Linyang Hou directly vetoed it, thinking that the right servant of the household department colluded with traders, and was directly fined and dismissed for investigation.

But in fact, the Marquis of Linyang did not go to court today.

But are the people willing to listen to this?
unwilling.

They are more willing to hear what they want to hear.

Is Jiangning Mansion full of refugees?

Don't you have enough to eat?

Are food prices soaring?
Yes, that's right.

Then you, Gu Jinnian, are a disaster.

"A stone of grain, a thousand taels of silver, has never been heard of since ancient times. In the past dynasties, where did the rice of a thousand silver come from? This is the idea of ​​the most talented man in the Great Xia? I think it is the Gu family who wants to take advantage of the fire to rob and make money. Take the blood, sweat and silver of the people."

"In order to protect your official career, by all means, thousands of people have become your family's official path? It's really hateful, hateful."

"What kind of bullshit is the number one talented scholar in the Xia Dynasty, what bullshit is the eternal article, I am afraid that someone behind the scenes is pointing it out, just to make Gu Jinnian official and prosperous. It is really disgusting."

"I can't imagine that a person who knows how hard every piece of Chinese food is on a plate would come up with such a strategy? How dare you say that this poem of national fortune was not written by someone else?"

"Let's go to Daxia Academy. I want to confront Gu Jinnian face to face. I want to ask him what kind of heart he has in mind. See if his heart is black when he sees thousands of people in the midst of suffering."

A sound rang out.

In the capital, it was obvious that someone deliberately discredited Gu Jinnian, scolding Gu Jinnian as a person who was unkind, unrighteous, filial, and unfaithful.

Such a terrifying comment also aroused the resentment of the people.

Someone was uneasy and kind, and provoked it.

However, most scholars follow blindly. They only need to think about the whole thing carefully, and they will find that it is full of loopholes.

But the problem is that when emotions are high, ordinary people are easily led astray.

Listening to the wind is rain, this is the norm.

In addition, with the jealousy in their hearts and the group effect, everyone subconsciously felt that Gu Jinnian was wrong. The Jiangning Mansion was full of refugees, and it was Gu Jinnian's fault. The skyrocketing food price was also Gu Jinnian's fault.

At this time, if you dare to say something good about Gu Jinnian, you will get insulted.

And in order to enter the group, you can only go with everyone, no matter who you criticize, anyway, the number of people is strength.

I am the light.

A light that stands on the moral high ground.

After all, if you ask me to do practical things, I can't do them.

Even if you ask me to write an eternal article, I can't write it.

But you let me follow you to make trouble and spray together, that's easy.

All of a sudden, thousands of scholars rushed towards Daxia Academy.

All of them have firm eyes and serious expressions, like messengers of justice, trying to judge others.

However, there were also some scholars who rushed to Daxia Academy as quickly as possible, and some of them were people who had met Gu Jinnian a few days ago.

They knew right away that someone was secretly doing something bad, so they immediately reported it, for fear that something serious would happen.

If a group of people get angry and hurt Gu Jinnian, it will be a big trouble.

Someone even went to notify the Gu family.

But the Gu family didn't pay much attention to the news, as if they had already prepared for it.

Daxia Academy.

With the sound of deafening footsteps.

Thousands of readers have gathered here.

There was anger in their eyes.

Appeared in Daxia Academy in a mighty way, with terrifying eyes, each of them was jealous of evil.

"Where is Gu Jinnian?"

"come out."

sounded.

Immediately afterwards, thousands of people spoke in unison, spreading throughout the entire Daxia Academy, alarming all birds and beasts.

Soon, figures appeared one after another. These were all students from Daxia Academy. They didn't know what happened.

But seeing these people is still a little flustered.

At this moment.

In the accommodation.

In Gu Jinnian's room, two scholars told Gu Jinnian about the matter panting.

They are students from other academies. They came to Daxia Academy a few days ago and took Gu Jinnian's class. After returning home, they admired Gu Jinnian a lot, so they came to notify as soon as this happened.

"Brother Jinnian, hurry up and run from the back mountain, these people have been completely insane after being bewitched."

"A good man doesn't suffer from immediate losses."

The two opened their mouths and persuaded Gu Jinnian to run away quickly.

And in the room.

Gu Jinnian couldn't help frowning, not because thousands of people frowned, but because they were curious.

Why did my uncle publicly admit that the strategy was offered by himself?

This is actually needless to say.

From others' point of view, his uncle wanted to kill the merchant, but he knew the real inside story.

So my uncle doesn't need to say so much news at all.

Now that it's done like this, people will lead the rhythm for no reason.

But Gu Jinnian understood.

My uncle must have his reasons for doing this, but there are some things I don't know.

"How many people are there?"

Gu Jinnian asked.

"I don't know, but at least two or three thousand people must be there."

"There aren't so many people, and they don't dare to trouble you, Brother Gu."

The other party answered.

After all, one or two people, who would dare to trouble the grandson of the Duke?

But two to 3000 people are different, more people are more powerful, the law does not blame the crowd, and they didn't come here to kill Gu Jinnian.

He just wanted to stand on the moral high ground, scold Gu Jinnian angrily, vent his anger, and raise his own worth and status by the way.

From now on, I will say to everyone I meet, does the grandson of Duke Zhen know?

I sprayed him, but he still didn't dare to speak back.

"Row."

"Thank you two brothers, this kindness will be remembered in my heart."

Gu Jinnian nodded.

Thank you both.

At this moment, four figures appeared outside the door.

It was Wang Fugui, Xu Changge, Xu Ya, Zhao Siqing, and Shangguan Baiyu.

"Brother Gu, what happened? Why did it suddenly become like this?"

Wang Fugui's face was not very good-looking, and he asked Gu Jinnian.

"There are at least three to four thousand people outside. I don't know what happened, but Brother Gu, I will ask my brother Yu Jian to take you away. No matter what, it's better to go first. These people are not kind."

Xu Ya said that he also hoped that Gu Jinnian would leave quickly, and even thought of how to escape.

"Yes, yes, Brother Jinnian, you follow my senior brother first, Jue Ming they have already gone to the dean."

Zhao Siqing followed suit, not wanting Gu Jinnian to encounter any trouble.

However, Gu Jinnian shook his head and said calmly.

"I have a clear conscience, why did I leave?"

"If this is gone, wouldn't it mean that this son is guilty of being a thief?"

"Besides, I want to see who is trying to trouble me."

Gu Jinnian wasn't afraid at all.

He even walked out of the door and walked outside.

Several people were silent.

Most of them did not continue to persuade, but Wang Fugui kept persuading. After all, people from outside were aggressive, and he was really afraid that something would happen to Gu Jinnian.

But he couldn't hold back Gu Jinnian's temper.

Followed all the way to the outside of Daxia Academy.

really.

Thousands of people gathered together, everyone looked angry, and students from the academy watched the play around.

At the same time, a lot of resentment poured into his body.

This was a complete surprise.

As for not far away.

Su Huaiyu and Jiang Yezhou stood in front of them.

Su Huaiyu remained silent.

Jiang Yezhou smiled wryly, explaining something to everyone.

"You must have misunderstood."

"How could Brother Gu collude with the merchants in Jiangning Mansion?"

"This must be someone who is secretly doing bad things. You must not do this."

Jiang Yezhou opened his mouth to explain for Gu Jinnian.

It's just that no one listened to these words.

On the contrary, there are all kinds of abuse.

"Who are you? Explain for Gu Jinnian here? Let him do it himself."

"That's right, let Gu Jinnian come by himself."

"What's none of your business? We're looking for Gu Jinnian, not you."

"What does it mean he hasn't come out? Are you guilty of being a thief?"

"This person is Jiang Yezhou, the son of Marquis Ye Yi, and also a powerful person. No wonder he protects Gu Jinnian so much. He is a raccoon of the same feather."

"So that's it, get out."

"Officials and officials protect each other, and the rich and powerful collude. It is because of you that Daxia Academy has become so unbearable."

All kinds of voices sounded, and someone recognized Jiang Yezhou, and immediately spoke out, and began to insult and humiliate Jiang Yezhou.

Just in this moment.

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

"Look, Gu Jinnian has come out."

"What? Gu Jinnian came out? Where is it?"

"Is this Gu Jinnian? Sure enough."

"Uh, it's true that he has a bad character, but it's a little too much for him to have a wicked eye?"

"You don't care what I say, anyway, he is not a good person."

"Are you Gu Jinnian's running dog?"

"No, no, I just said it casually, just said it casually."

All kinds of voices sounded, as outrageous as possible.

Someone tried to explain it, but all they got was glaring faces.

Therefore, he quickly changed his words, for fear of being regarded as a lackey of the powerful by the other party.

Inside the academy.

Gu Jinnian watched all this.

This is not the first time he has encountered this situation.

When I was writing a script in my previous life, I also encountered this kind of thing. No matter how good your writing is, as long as you are young and have achieved what you shouldn't have, then you can wait to spray it.

Trolls have existed since ancient times.

There are all dynasties and generations.

And the way of thinking is very consistent, to put it simply.

I'm a piece of shit, and you should be a piece of shit, and if you're not a piece of shit, then you have a problem.

If I can't find out that there is something wrong with you, then there is something wrong with your character, no matter whether I have met you in person or not, there must be something wrong with you.

If your character is fine, then there is something wrong with what you do, if you haven’t done it perfectly, then you have a problem.

The simplest description is that the troll will always stand on the high ground and spray you because he asks you to become a saint. If you make a mistake, you are worse than a beast.

But it’s okay if you didn’t make a mistake, because you didn’t do it right.

It's just that it's the first time I've seen thousands of real trolls.

"Uncle Jinnian, that's Yang Boyun, and the leader in the middle is Wang Xuan, and Li Xiang is also in it, the one with the loudest voice."

At this moment, Li Ji suddenly appeared.

When he heard such a big commotion, he naturally wouldn't miss the excitement.

It's just that after seeing so many people, Li Ji was taken aback for a moment, and then saw a few acquaintances from the crowd.

Hastily whispered in Gu Jinnian's ear.

Hear what Li Ji said.

Gu Jinnian looked away.

Indeed, these guys stood at the forefront, and they were all leading the charge.

"Gu Jinnian, you are not a son of man."

"Gu Jinnian, you fish and meat people."

"Gu Jinnian, you are disloyal, filial, benevolent and righteous."

The scolding was like thunder.

Twittering, like a vegetable market, this kind of behavior makes many people in the academy frown.

Because the quality is a bit low, and I don't explain anything clearly, I just keep cursing and cursing here.

It's like being sick.

"quiet."

At the critical moment, a voice sounded, shocking the audience.

It is the voice of a great Confucian.

In fact, when these scholars gathered, all the great Confucian masters of the academy came out, but they didn't show up here to watch.

But when it gets to this level, someone has to come forward.

This is an old man.

Wearing a gray Confucian robe, with a serious face, he appeared in the crowd and calmed everyone down.

"It's Wang Yun Daru."

"Wang Yun Daru is here."

"Everyone be quiet, don't make any more noise."

Seeing who was coming, everyone shut up and gradually became quiet.

And the great Confucianist called Wang Yun.

I glanced at everyone.

He glanced at Gu Jinnian again.

Then he made a sound slowly.

"This is Daxia Academy, you guys gathered people here, why?"

He raised his voice and asked the gathered scholars.

"Back to Wang Ru."

"I waited to come here today to seek justice for the tens of millions of refugees in Jiangning Prefecture."

At this moment, a handsome man came out.

This was Wang Xuan. Although he didn't know why he had an enmity with Gu Jinnian, he was the first to speak.

"Who do you seek justice from?"

Wang Yun frowned and looked at the other party.

"Find Gu Jinnian."

One after another voices sounded, and they all answered.

"quiet."

Wang Yun spoke again to calm everyone down, still looking at Wang Xuan.

"Back to Wangru, the Jiangning County was flooded, tens of millions of people were displaced, starved of food, and became a purgatory on earth."

"Gu Jinnian offered a plan for disaster relief, but it caused the food price in Jiangning Mansion to skyrocket, causing countless refugees to starve to death outside the city."

"We suspect that Gu Jinnian colluded with merchants, and used the name of offering advice to amass money wantonly and pervert the law."

Wang Xuan opened his mouth and explained why he came.

But as soon as he said this, Wang Yun couldn't help but snorted coldly.

"madness."

"It's really stupid."

"If Gu Jinnian's suggestions are for corruption and breaking the law, how can His Majesty not know?"

"Isn't this forced slander?"

As soon as Wang Yun heard this, he immediately noticed the loophole, and then refuted it.

But Wang Xuan didn't take it seriously, and had already thought about her words.

"Wang Ru, this is Gu Jinnian's insidiousness. His strategy to make His Majesty relax his vigilance seems to be for the purpose of calming chaos, but in fact it is to make money."

"Otherwise, for the disaster of refugees in Jiangning Prefecture, the national treasury can completely allocate funds to buy grain and rice from merchants, and then donate it to the people. Wouldn't it be great?"

"And we are even more suspicious that Gu Jinnian's ancient articles and poems about the country were all ghostwritten by others. This is a conspiracy, a huge conspiracy, to pave the way for Gu Jinnian, so as to take this opportunity to express his talents to His Majesty Suggesting suggestions, thereby amassing money wantonly, vainly caring about human life."

"Otherwise, why did Gu Jinnian have such a talent all of a sudden after being so useless for more than ten years?"

"Students have reason to suspect that there is a larger conspiracy involved."

"If Gu Jinnian can't explain, I will definitely not leave today."

"We must eliminate harm for the people."

I have to say, this Wang Xuan is really good at picking.

Even time can be connected together, a master of conspiracy theories, and it is also powerful to incite emotions.

"Bullshit."

"This is Daxia Academy, who dares to be presumptuous?"

Wang Yun roared.

Although what Wang Xuan said made some sense, he was not stupid, and he immediately found out that there were many far-fetched theories in it.

Furthermore, the vision thing can be represented by a ghostwriter?
It was purely asking for trouble for the sake of asking for trouble.

It's just that Wang Ru opened his mouth like this, but strange voices sounded from the crowd.

"Hmph, I think you were bought by the powerful too?"

"As a Confucian, you don't speak out for the people, but for the powerful. Are you worthy of being a great Confucian?"

"Everyone, I must ask Gu Jinnian for an explanation today. He has been silent all this time, and it is because of guilt and fear that people from Daxia Academy come forward."

sounded.

I don't know where it came from.

But this kind of person is more vicious.

Once again, it aroused everyone's emotions.

lead to more scolding.

Some people have even gone crazy.

"Go, arrest Gu Jinnian and parade him through the streets."

"Catch him, let him kneel down, and kowtow to the dead people."

Another voice came from nowhere.

Convincing everyone to attack and capture Gu Jinnian.

But right now.

abruptly.

Billowing yellow sand set off.

The sound of horseshoes sounded.

Galloping towards Daxia Academy.

"Who dares to touch my nephew."

A roar exploded.

is a man.

Wearing armor and leading a thousand elite cavalry, there was both anger and murderous intent in his eyes.

This is Gu Jinnian's third uncle.

Gu Ningfan.

A general of the Great Xia Xuanwu Army.
