Chapter 45 True is the first person I have seen in my life
Fang Yuanfu spent another night peacefully, but none of these adults slept well, and they all suffered until dawn in fear. Even though the exhaustion rushed towards their bodies like a tidal wave, the fear in their hearts still made them dare not close their eyes.
"I can't stay like this any longer! I'm in the open and the enemy is in the dark, how can I be on guard everywhere? I'll wait until I get through it, I'm afraid that we won't have to come to those vicious people, and we will die by ourselves!"
"That's right! The first priority is to get out of this place immediately! There's no one to use, there's nothing to do, what's the point of us staying here?"
"For today's plan, the only way to leave this Longtan tiger's den is to leave this Longtan tiger's den for the time being, and then slowly figure it out. ”
At this point, no one had come up with a different opinion. The morality and reason in their hearts can't overcome the physical and mental exhaustion, and they really can't stand it.
Zhao Xincheng poured a large sip of herbal tea and glanced around at everyone, but he didn't have a firm idea in his heart.
"Lord Zhao, you can get an idea!"
Zhao Xincheng panicked in his heart, and subconsciously asked, "What are your opinions?"
Except for true great wisdom, very few people can apply what they have learned. Zhao Xincheng is full of wealth, but he can't turn it into practicality, so he can't do anything.
These long-time officialdom people in the room have already seen the bottom of the prefect Zhao Xincheng, and almost at the same time explained the reason why they must retreat.
Of course, Zhao Xincheng also wanted to retreat, but he knew that once the court blamed him, the crime would be bigger and bigger, but he would have to connect the nine clans.
"Well, then according to your wishes, let the Imperial Forest Army escort it, and retreat to the edge of Fangyuan City for the time being, and everything will be considered in the long run......"
"My lord Mingjian!" has been officials for so many years, and they know very well that all responsibilities belong to the highest decision-makers, and they will not be held accountable for any opinions, and they will only say it for their own interests.
Zhao Xincheng sighed silently, this is also a helpless move, and it is probably the same result if it is to let people come. If the court really wants to blame it, then blame it, he really has no other way.
A group of people surrounded Zhao Xincheng and walked downstairs in a panic, abandoning everything they had brought over.
Bai Yishi, who was still reading the county chronicles, heard the movement upstairs and couldn't help but look up in the direction of the stairs. Step by step, Zhao Xincheng and other officials appeared in Bai Yishi's field of vision.
Xu Ji had just gone upstairs at this time, and when he saw this scene, he glanced at Bai Yishi, and stood next to him and kept silent.
"Lord Bai, this is really a dangerous place, it is better to leave with me for the time being, and wait for the imperial court to send enough people before acting here. Zhao Xincheng said in a depressed mood.
Bai Yishi also sighed slightly and said, "Lord Zhao, have you ever thought of coming back?"
"Naturally. As long as the imperial court gives enough military power and can suppress this gang of extremely vicious people, we will naturally have to come back to govern Fangyuan Mansion. Although Zhao Xincheng said this, he also knew in his heart that it was almost impossible. But in front of so many people, he can't be too negative, he always wants to leave some hope.
"Then I'll tell the adults now, it will be impossible for the adults to come back after leaving, and it is even more impossible to govern Fang Yuan Mansion!" Bai Yishi suddenly said righteously, his voice so loud that it sounded like thunder in everyone's ears.
Zhao Xincheng was shocked in his heart, and looked at Bai Yishi at a loss. Everyone was taken aback, and their eyes showed anger.
"Huangkou Xiao'er, do you think this is a school? After all, talking on paper is harming yourself and others!" Someone immediately sneered.
"We are different from others! People are from Bailu Academy, or the top of this year's list, they read sage books, and they raise Haoran Qi, how can they be the same as us ordinary people?"
"If Lord Bai has any high opinions, just say it and listen to it?"
These ridicules fell into Zhao Xincheng's ears, as if he was begging you and him, and his face couldn't help but turn blue and red.
Bai Yishi's face did not change, he only stared at Zhao Xincheng, and said in a loud voice: "If the adults leave this time, not to mention whether the imperial court will be blamed, just talking about the people of Fangyuan City will definitely think that the so-called Fangyuan Mansion is useless, even if the next time the army presses the border, people will not care." ”
Zhao Xincheng's face gradually sank.
"I don't think Lord Bai has any lofty opinions, and it's not a general remark! This kind of theoretical thing must be said in three days and three nights with Lord Bai's knowledge! But what about the countermeasures? What about the countermeasures for not leaving?"
Bai Yishi said in a very light tone: "There is no countermeasure. ”
"Hah? Didn't Lord Bai still talk about it just now? Why are you running out of words now? Speaking of which, Lord Bai just analyzed the consequences of leaving, but has Lord Bai considered the outcome of not leaving?"
From beginning to end, no one has ever really paid attention to Bai Yishi, not only for his humble official position, but also because of his age, he is just a young man who has just grown up, how can he understand the world?
"Next, Lord Bai may have to come up with that set of saints' wise sayings, which are too empty and useless. Since Lord Bai insisted on refusing to leave, it would be better to stay here, and this huge Fangyuan Mansion would be left to Lord Bai. ”
"Not only can't I go, but you can't go either. Bai Yishi looked at everyone and said.
"What? Bai Yishi, aren't you crazy? You are a little Zhaoma, what right do you have to order us?"
The official, who had been suppressed for a long time, finally found an outlet and poured all his anger out on Bai Yishi.
Zhao Xincheng was also slightly dissatisfied in his heart, and his gaze when he looked at Bai Yishi was a little cold.
In fact, Bai Yishi had already expected the scene in front of him, but what really happened in front of him at this time, he was still a little disappointed in his heart.
Bai Yishi looked at everyone, his gaze did not evade, and said, "You all say that the people in Fangyuan City are extremely vicious people, but in fact, these extremely vicious people don't care about you at all. Have any of you actually gone out to see Fangyuan City? And who really knows the people here? Since you don't know, how did you come to such a conclusion? I can't help but ask you how you came to this conclusion!"
"Absolutely ridiculous! You have to wait for someone else to take your head before you can conclude that the other party is a vicious criminal? Couldn't the arrows of the day before yesterday and yesterday's rain of arrows prove anything? What kind of ridiculous remarks is this! What a ridiculous remark in the world!
Everyone was naturally indignant and would never agree with what Bai Yishi said.
Although Zhao Xincheng disagreed, he also felt that there was a little bit of truth, and the dark color on his face eased slightly.
Xu Ji, who was listening from the side, looked as usual, and he didn't think that Bai Yishi was amazing, nor did he think that what he said was right.
Bai Yishi commented on the people in Fangyuan City like this, I'm afraid most people in this world can't agree with it. Fangyuan City is not a place full of friendship, but a corner where all the dirty darkness of the Ming Dynasty gathers, where there is no mercy and mercy, only bloody violence.
"I really don't know how Lord Bai was admitted to Bailu Academy, and I can say such things!"
"Black and white are reversed, and there is no distinction between good and evil. Lord Bai, if you insist on staying here, then it's better to stay here!, I advise you to do it yourself!" Everyone also shook their sleeves angrily, not wanting to say anything more to Bai Yishi, and preparing to leave this place of right and wrong immediately.
Bai Yishi suddenly laughed, and his laughter was full of mockery, causing everyone to look angry.
"Since you insist on leaving, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"If we bet on whether Lord Bai dares to jump from the upper floor, we naturally don't dare, because with Lord Bai's brain, he may not be able to do something incomprehensible to ordinary people. Everyone sneered, obviously not even thinking of betting with Bai Yishi.
Bai Yishi didn't care about the ridicule, and still said confidently: "What I want to bet with you is to go out as Fangyuan Mansion and walk around Fangyuan City. If it is true that they are all the most wicked men, as you have said, then those who have left will surely die, and if they come back alive, then your judgment will be proved wrong. ”
"Hahahaha! I didn't expect Lord Bai to really make a bet like jumping off a building! Lord Bai's wisdom is really the first person I have ever seen in my life!" everyone laughed sarcastically.
Bai Yishi smiled faintly and said, "Can any adult dare to walk with me?"
"Oh, why don't you ask if anyone dares to jump down from this building with you? Threatening people with such an act of dying is not a real hero's bravery!"
Bai Yishi looked up to the sky and smiled, and said, "Since there is no one to go with me, then I will go by myself! This is the south, how about I go to the north to buy something and come back?"
"Who knows if you were prepared in advance and deliberately acted on this play today?"
Bai Yishi ignored it and walked straight out.
The officials were stunned in place, looking at each other, not knowing whether to continue to walk.
"How can you be frightened by a boy who has not grown any hair? If he dies outside and never returns, will we have to wait here for him to die?
"Yes, yes, yes, this kid is crazy himself, we don't want to go crazy with him!"
"That's right, let's go!"
The officials crowded together and walked downstairs, but found that Zhao Xincheng did not move, and couldn't help but stop.
"Lord Zhao?"
"Since Lord Bai has said so and done so, we might as well wait for him to reach noon. If he doesn't arrive at noon, it's not too late for us to go. Zhao Xincheng still had a trace of fantasy in his heart and refused to leave here.
"Lord Zhao, didn't you also believe that kid's crazy words?"
"Half a day, so that Dong Jinwei can come. ”
The officials looked at each other, and although they hesitated, they reluctantly agreed.
Zhao Xincheng walked to the window, looked out, and saw Bai Yishi's figure disappearing into the staggered buildings.
"Bai Yishi, can you really do it?"
