Xiangye

Chapter 110 Well said

Scholars in the Ming Dynasty were all proud and arrogant, and they believed that they were masters, and the rest were just the sheep of the emperor's herdsmen who would become officials in the future.They were having a good time eating and drinking, but they were already impatient when they were disturbed by a group of yamen servants.

Jin Xiaoying was so rude, some scholars immediately shouted: "You lowly subordinates, you are spoiling the scenery, go away!"

"Gao Erzhi, ignore them."

Another person jumped up against the case: "We are romantic in the Book of Poetry, but these disgusting things have come here, you are such a jerk! Shameless villain, get out!" To slap him in the face.

Is it called beating when a scholar beats someone? Then educate the common people and let you understand the principle of superiority and inferiority.

What kind of martial arts is the kitty eagle, how can it be drawn by someone, and it takes a step back to dodge it.

After all, he was a young man, so he couldn't bear the humiliation anymore.As soon as the little eagle stretched out his hand, an iron ruler appeared in his hand, and he was about to pull it out.

The scholar yelled, "How dare you, you rat!"

"Don't!" Da Ying was startled, and stretched out his hand to support Xiao Ying.

Although this group of scholars seems to have no fame, they don't wear scholarly shirts, and they don't have political privileges.But who knows how many scholars, how many candidates, and how many Jinshi there are in the sect behind them.Scholars pay attention to the inheritance of masters, and these guys are in the same spirit, and when they touch one, a large group will be involved, which is the most difficult thing to deal with.

As yamen servants, even famous arresters from Shaanxi still feel short of breath when they meet them.

If Kitty Hawk's iron ruler is pulled down, it will poke a hornet's nest.If you really go back to the criminal yamen, the immediate boss is also a scholar, so he will naturally protect this group of scholars.In the end, the only ones who were unlucky were himself and Xiaoying.

Pulling away the little eagle, the big eagle smiled at Gao Wen: "I'm offended, it turns out that the young master is Zhuang Langren, also known as Gao Erzhi, but he made a mistake. I was on business to arrest Jiangyang robbers, I misunderstood, please Forgive me."

Before Gao Wen could speak, a scholar who was acquainted with him pointed his halberd at the eagle, and shouted: "What are you talking about, old man, do you know who is standing in front of you? Brother Erzhi is a well-known talent in our Pingliang Prefecture. I just won the first place in the county test, and passed the government test, and the hospital test is no problem. It's a pity that I missed the government test and won the first place in the future, otherwise it would be a small triple. He talks like that."

This was said with righteous indignation.

Another scholar sighed: "Yes, I have also read the papers of the Erzhi County Examination. It is really beautiful and charming. This time the government examination is not up to standard, and it is impossible to be a small three yuan. Otherwise, it will be A good story. Pity, pity!"

"It's a pity!" Everyone sighed.

This is already a matter of another world, and the detectives who were the criminal suspects were in awe when they heard it.

Sighing for a long time, looking up, Big Eagle, Little Eagle and the others quietly retreated into the private room without knowing when.

Seeing that all the officials were drinking away, the scholars were full of spirits, and they all laughed loudly: "Finally get rid of these disgusting things, stop, let's continue to drink and talk."

Gao Wen had something on his mind, why did he still have some lingering feelings, only something happened in the Taoist family, so that's all for today.

But the sentient beings did not agree, said, Brother Erzhi was upset by the subordinates just now.Hehe, why should I care.I am a scholar, and I have an aura of grandeur in my chest. Your efforts to nourish your qi are not good enough!
Gao Wen had no choice but to sit back in his seat to socialize.

But Daying Xiaoying and the others have been drinking in that private room, and they vaguely felt that there were shining eyes constantly glancing at him, making him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

……

In the private room, Xiaoying's face was flushed with anger, and he said in a low voice: "Master, these plague students are annoying, and I can't bear it. They are just a group of scholars without fame. If we are scholars, we may still have concerns." , they... hum."

The other four policemen also whispered: "Yes, Master Yun, just show them some color. We are officials, and they are civilians. What are you afraid of?"

Big Eagle shook his head: "It's important to run errands, don't make extra troubles. Scholars are not easy to mess with. It really alarmed the teachers of the scholars. As long as one scholar goes to the yamen, it will be a trouble."

Xiaoying gulped down the wine in the glass sullenly, and said nothing with a livid face.

Daying pondered: "However, this scholar whose surname is Gao Mingerzhi is indeed suspicious."

Seeing Xiaoying look over, Daying said: "I think you can also see that Gao Erzhi has martial arts, so he shouldn't be weak. How can a scholar have martial arts? This is one of the doubts."

Xiaoying: "Yes, the apprentice just noticed carefully. The two mouths of Plague were full of calluses, which should have been made by holding a knife. Also, there were calluses on the second joints of his index finger and ring finger on his right hand. When bowing, the bowstring is cut."

Daying: "You can see it clearly, it is true. This is one, and the other is that we came to Pingliang to catch Gao Wen, whose surname is Gao."

Xiaoying's expression changed: "Master means, maybe this Gao Erzhi is that Gao Wen."

Daying: "Maybe not, but this person is very strange. Let's check it out. Isn't that what I'm procuring and prosecuting for?" Forget it then. After all, we have to find some trouble for this scholar, otherwise, won’t he be laughed at by the yamen and the brothers in the rivers and lakes?”

"Yes." Xiaoying said to the four subordinates: "Keep an eye on Gao Erzhi, hehe, today's dinner and drink may take a while."

Da Ying was mistaken, he thought that Gao Erzhi's surname was Gao Erzhi.In fact, Er Zhi is Gao Wen's character.This name was randomized by the storyteller Chen Guaizi, and it was not recorded in the dossier.

In this era, especially among scholars, it is very impolite to call someone by their first name.Even the magistrate of Diao County would say "Er Zhi" when seeing Gao Wen to show his respect.

If he knew this, Da Ying would probably have caught people just now.

……

Gao Wen sat down and drank wine with the scholars for another half an hour, but he saw Big Eagle and Little Eagle not coming out of the private room.What's more, the six of them didn't speak much among themselves, and when they grumbled inwardly, they immediately understood that this group of people was spying on him secretly, and they would come to seek his misfortune only when the scholars had a chance to leave and he was alone.

Gao Wen had a ghost in his heart, and he became anxious: well, if you want to spend it with me, I will spend it with you.

This meal was eaten from four or five o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time until nine o'clock in the evening.Pingliang City is the headquarters of An Dongzhong's guards, and it is reasonable to enforce a curfew, although the Taiping period is not so particular.

As soon as it got dark, a bright moon rose in the sky, shining white outside.There are thousands of lights dotted with lights, and the scholars are even more interested.

After some drinking orders, the topic was brought back to Mr. Xu, the chief examiner of this year's imperial examination.

A scholar was already a little drunk, and sighed again: "I have been preparing for this college exam for two years, and I think I am still somewhat sure, and I can even win the rural exam. It's a pity that it was allocated to this mentor. He must have no future in the future. Do you know that our future mentor is a joke. It is regarded as a joke by the princes and scholars in the court. In the future, I am afraid that it will bring us These disciples will also be ridiculed and ridiculed."

Another scholar asked: "How do you say that?"

The scholar said: "In the battle of Tumu Fortress, after the Emperor Taishang fell into the enemy's hands. King Tan is now the Supervisor of the State, the Prime Minister of military and state affairs. Seeing that he advanced to the capital, he called all the officials to discuss the strategy of retreating the enemy. Master Xu Cheng unexpectedly He made an astonishing statement in the court, saying that he deduced from the astrology that the capital could not be defended, and proposed to move the capital to Nanjing. This, this, this is simply absurd. Naturally, he was severely reprimanded by the present and the court officials, resulting in a bad reputation. You said, to have such a teacher at the stall, I am lucky enough to wait for it."

"It's absurd to suggest that the emperor move the capital in the face of the great enemy!" All the living beings were in an uproar, swearing and cursing one after another. They didn't think that this person might become their future teacher.

Because Gao Wen had something on his mind, he was not interested in agreeing.

Seeing that he didn't speak, a scholar couldn't help asking, "Erzhi, do you have a different opinion."

"Yes, yes, brother Erzhi, you don't say a word, but you don't agree with me?"

Seeing everyone asking, I didn't think about anything else, so I said casually: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with moving the capital/"

A scholar said angrily: "Erzhi, what are you talking about? When Emperor Chengzu Gao moved his capital to Beijing, he thought that the emperor would guard the gate of the country. When the enemy is at hand, Mr. Xu does not think of a good way to retreat from the enemy, but thinks of moving the capital. If so , the hearts of the army and the people have fallen to the bottom, how can we defend the soil and resist the enemy?"

Seeing the indignation on everyone's faces, Gao Wen couldn't help laughing wryly.Scholars in the Ming Dynasty were a little bad, they liked to be true.It's a big deal, it has to be right and wrong, and you have to force people to express their opinions.

There is no other way, since the words have been spoken, but cannot back down.

He said: "Brothers, don't worry, I am a young scholar who understands important military and state affairs. I don't agree with Xu's editor's statement that if you want to retreat from the enemy, you must move the capital if you infer from astrology. Although our Confucianism has a genius Human induction is mentioned, but the sage also said that the child does not talk about strange power and confusion. He only keeps things like astrological illustrations and does not care about them. I think the reason why editor Xu said this is probably because Beijing City was captured by the enemy. The worst plan! Just imagine, if the city of Beijing falls and the emperor and the six tribes fall into the enemy's hands, wouldn't the situation be unmanageable? If it really comes to that time, we must first follow the example of Jingkang, so what? If the emperor and the six tribes If the Six Departments can be moved to Nanjing, even if Beijing falls, our Ming Dynasty will not be in chaos, so it won’t be like the Song Dynasty. Let’s not underestimate it first. In the battle of Tumubao, the entire imperial army was wiped out, even the Supreme Emperor Falling into the enemy's hands. It can be said that there are no more soldiers in the north. No matter how you look at it, the city of Beijing is in jeopardy. Of course, with Yu Shaobao, an unborn hero, the battle situation has changed. But at that time, who Can you see through it?"

"The so-called, all things can be established without forewarning. Many things have to be planned for both. Words are sinners. This is the opinion of brother Yu, laugh at me, laugh at me."

Hearing Gao Wen's words sound reasonable, all the scholars were not stupid, they thought about it immediately, and some even nodded slightly.

Gao Wen was amused in his heart: Let's talk about what is black and white, you ancients, how can you compare to me, an old netizen who has been fighting with people on the forum all the year round?To be honest, Master Xu's proposal to move the capital is really absurd.It's almost like Han Fuyu, Marshal Han, who guarded Shandong during the War of Resistance Against Japan. He wanted to be a runaway general, and his conduct was really bad.

After saying this, Gao Wen's heart moved: Wait, why does this historical fact sound so familiar? What's wrong?
At this time, suddenly, someone laughed: "Well said, then Editor Xu will be very happy if he hears this little gentleman. Master Xu is notorious now, and everyone in heaven and earth praises him. No, this little brother said good things about him. There are reasons and evidences in what I said, and the old man admires it. Little Er!"

Searching for the voice, he saw a short and slender scholar coming out of the private room at the other end, standing at the stairs, smiling and saluting all the students.
