209 The literati are also furious

The Manchu court began to pretend to be ostriches, but the Qingliu people would not let go lightly, and these gentlemen who were full of benevolence and morality were immersed in the pleasure of burning the gatehouse of the Xiao family these days, and they didn't even bother to read books every day.

"Oh, Brother Huang, it's been a long wait, I've been waiting for a long time, I'll punish myself for three cups......"

"My jade son, when is this, do you still have the heart to hide in the study and read? The Qing Dynasty has reached the moment of life and death, how can my generation hide in the study......

"What's the matter, is there anything new? Didn't the imperial court say that it would be managed?"

"Yu Gongzi is so confused, there have been traitors in the court for a long time, don't you know yet?"

The teahouse and wine shop in Sijiu City are crowded with people from all over the country, and opening their mouths and closing their mouths is this Tanggu incident, which is to scold Xiao Letian, it seems that they still haven't come from the excitement of burning the gatehouse.

That night was an unforgettable night for all the lifters, they burned down the entire gatehouse of the Xiao family, and even rushed to the Forbidden City to kneel outside the city gate to force the palace, and even saw the emperor's dragon face.

These scholars were killed and did not expect that this time Enke would gain so much, although the Qing Dynasty said that they respected Confucianism, but it was only a beautiful word on the surface, and the imperial court did not kill scholars less.

The lifelong ideal of all Confucian scholars is to restore the literati system of the Song Dynasty, how good it was at that time, the Zhao family vowed not to kill the Wenchen, no matter how big the crime was, at most it was an exile, and the scholars at that time were living in heaven.

And today, this group of lifters tried the taste of forcing the palace for the first time in the Qing Dynasty, and they didn't expect that the imperial court actually didn't punish them, and Enke didn't cancel it.

Not only that, but their actions also won the collective applause of the people of all the four or nine cities. The common people don't know what to learn from the West, they know that this group of people is quite kind, and they dare to go to the imperial city to force the palace, so they have to pick a thumb for this.

From that day on, it was common for people to secretly help settle the bill, or simply get free of orders in restaurants. Even during the banquet, the children of the nobles of the Eight Banners came over to toast, patted their shoulders and raised their thumbs and shouted, 'This is the seed of reading, have the ability and ambition'.

In the midst of the compliments all over the city, the hearts of these scholars became higher and higher, and an evil fire began to spread in their hearts.

"O thief, thief... Have you ever known that in Tanggu Xiao Letian's secret dungeon, the guards with knives in the Forbidden City said that they would be locked up, and countless perjuries were made under torture to extract confessions..."

"I know, I know, not only that, but he also relied on his wealth to coerce the merchants of the whole city to listen to his command, and his disobedience was clearly revealed..."

"What's more, he fishes and eats the people in the city, not to mention the grass people, even the landlords and gentry can't escape his poisonous hands. The villagers were unwilling to sell their land, so they killed people, set fires and even poisoned them...... How did Huang Juren die? Isn't it because he opposed that special zone......

"The most outrageous thing is his fallacy and heresy, this surnamed Xiao is a spy sent by foreign devils, a detective, and a spy, who is here to dig up the national vein of the Qing Dynasty, what bullshit earth is round, and what kind of person can fly in the sky, and even say that he uses iron to build a sea ship? is simply a madman, the iron sinks when it sees the water, and it is used to build ships, hahaha......"

The crowd was talking, and on their faces reddened by fire and wine were angry souls burning, and they couldn't wait to take out their hearts for the emperor to see, and for all the people in the world to see.

The scholars are in tandem, conspiring, and even secretly forming associations, and under the instigation of a large number of well-intentioned people, they are ready to break the kettle and fight a battle with Western learning.

However, there are always some people who are born with a penchant for pouring cold water, that is an independent soul who is unwilling to conform to the herd, and that is a group of people who like to look at the world coldly and are full of doubts.

Although these people also participated in the forced palace, most of the time they were on the periphery of the crowd and observed this qiē coldly, and they were quiet as if they did not have zài.

Silence doesn't mean they don't think, when these rotten people start to attack Western studies with clichés again, a voice suddenly floats faintly from a table in the corner.

"A bunch of ignorant fools, it's not uncommon to build ships with iron, Citigroup and Britain and France have already launched iron ships, and you are still chattering here......"

One sentence made the drunken and red-faced rotten people angry, "Who... Who the hell is it? You stand up for me...... It turned out to be you, you Cantonese Yankee, who had given you face several times before and invited you to the banquet, but you shirked something and didn't come, it turned out that your real identity was a lackey of the Western School...... Bah... I'm ashamed to be with you......"

The scolded Guangdong Juzi blushed, "This is also a person who has read the books of sages? I dare not admit the facts in front of me, I think you are not blind, but blind......

"The earth is round, and people and Westerners have proved it for hundreds of years, and the iron-clad reality is in front of us, and the ship can return to the starting point if it travels in one direction, so what is there to question about it? People and foreigners have been sailing like this for hundreds of years......

"It's not news that people are born to fly, including the thousand-mile sound transmission technique, which has appeared in Citigroup. What else is there to argue about, what is there to argue about?

The quarrel immediately escalated, and the drunk man jumped up and yelled, "Fart, you fart... What about the evidence, I want evidence, you prove to me that the earth is round, people can fly in the sky, you fly one and I will see ......"

At the table of the people in Guangdong, they were all scholars from coastal provinces who could contact foreigners, and their mentality was originally very open, so they were the first disciples to take Xiao Letian as their teacher.

These people can be silent, but it doesn't mean that they are easy to bully, and a Fujian lifter next to him slapped the table and responded, "Evidence... What kind of evidence do you want? Cold in winter and hot in summer are the truth in front of us, and there is no need to debate the truth, and everything Mr. Xiao said has already been proved by Westerners, and it is the reality in front of ...... eyes."

"According to what you say, do I have to ask you one more question, and you confirm to me that you are your parents' own son. If you can't prove it, you're a wild seed?"

"Hahaha......" The tavern burst into laughter.

"Oh, it's unbearable, I'll fight with you......" The drunk man rushed up with a punch, but the drunk man struggled to walk in a straight line, and as a result, the chair leg stumbled and fell to the ground, reaching out and touching the nose with blood.

"Are you still watching, do it, Xixue has beaten people......" This voice came down, and half of the street heard it clearly, and the people who were loyal to Xianxue pounced like a group of vicious dogs, and lifted the table when they got started, and a table of wine and food was beaten to a pulp.

"Hit hit...... Kill this group of Western learning dogs, there is no place for you in the Qing Dynasty..."

"Phew... A bunch of rotten people with razor-eyed eyes, rats in the trenches, will be destroyed in your hands early and evening...... When Lao Tzu is afraid that you won't succeed, he will fight..."

The scholars on both sides picked up Wang Ba's fist and began to fight, and the surrounding drinkers dispersed, giving up a big empty space at once, and there will always be people watching the excitement.

The tavern owner had already cried, all this was silver, and he might not be able to accompany him when he turned around, "Ladies and gentlemen, raise your noble hands, it's not easy to run a small shop, you have pity on the poor old man, me......" Before he finished speaking, a saucer flew over his head and hit the wall with a bang.

At the same time as the boss lowered his head to hide from the dishes, a Eight Banners uncle next to him was protecting his bird cage with one hand and the tavern owner with the other. "Don't shout, this is a scholar's fight, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I'm blocked today, and there will be new bulls to brag about in the future......"

"Above, up there, what's the matter with your slapping in the head? Hitting him on the bridge of the nose...... Hey, the monkey steals the peach, hahaha, the literati are even more ruthless......"

There was a clattering sound as he spoke, and the two men who hugged each other smashed open half of the wooden door, tore through the cotton curtain and rolled directly into the street. At this time, there were also piles of people watching the excitement on the long street, and everyone looked at each other, and no one thought that the polite and polite people in the past would be so fanatical.

Just when the scuffle was at its most intense, a large group of officials from the Shuntian Mansion came running on the street, "Stop, stop, as a lifter, you are fighting along the street, don't you want to be famous......?"

The people who fought this time were afraid, they were not afraid of the officials, or even the officials of the Shuntian Mansion, but they were afraid of the Ministry of Rites. If this is brought out of the training of the saints, it will not be revoked of their fame. Without saying a word, let's run quickly, a group of people covered their faces and fled, not caring about the tavern owner crying behind him.

The officials are just scaring and scaring people, where do they dare to arrest these future officials, if they can scare them away, it will be a great achievement. Before a few of them could catch their breath, someone suddenly shouted, "Brother a few reinforcements are coming, Nancheng Taibai Lou is also fighting, and everyone who is playing Western studies has taken gunpowder today......"

That's right, starting today, I don't know how to do it, those admirers of Western studies who were extremely low-key in the past actually took the initiative to cater to the provocation of the disciples of Xianxue, and a fierce conflict broke out between the two sides.

In the city of Beijing, there are many entertainment venues in the south of the city, and tea shops and wine shops abound, and it is in these places that the lifters from all over the Qing Dynasty came to a full martial arts, and there were twelve fights and brawls in just one day's effort, and there were countless scolding wars.

It stands to reason that there should be a minority of Westerners, but it is strange that these Westerners have not suffered much in today's conflict. The reason is also very simple, these provocative Western scholars don't seem to drink much, and they have always provoked drunks in a sober state.

And there are still a lot of people supporting them, although they didn't start to help fight, but when they retreated, they didn't do anything to cover up or something.

The servants of Shuntianfu were tired of being dead dogs for a whole day, but they couldn't rest like this, and the night has always been the golden time for the literati to come out, fighting in the restaurant during the day, and maybe they have to fight in the Qinglou at night.

Sure enough, it was still the unlucky Baihualou, when the foreigner's seat clock had just hit half past nine in the evening, two groups of people in the hall smashed up because of the fight between Western scholars.

"This is the place where Wang Shizheng and Wang Lao Hanlin fought, our juniors must not retreat, we must inherit the legacy of Lao Hanlin and do it with them...... Fuck you..."

"Hahaha, you rotten Confucians will fight in the Qinglou Restaurant, we all know that Wang Shizheng is greedy and lustful, this Baihualou is of course his position......"

The two groups of people started scolding first, then throwing things, and finally throwing fists. The powder on the old bustard's crying face was gone, and she sat on the ground and cried.

"Xiao Letian, you lack great virtue...... It's because of you, my Baihualou was smashed twice, why am I so unlucky, I don't live anymore......"
