Chapter Seventy-One

Shi Zui and Li Mo'an smiled bitterly at each other, Li Mo'an thought about it and said to Shi Zui: "You see if we can also write it, at least we can give Mingzhi support." ”

Shi Zui said: "If this is the case, there will be no room for redemption in this matter." Think about it, if we read the book at the same time, causing a group of students to oppose Master Jia and the entire political affairs hall, I am afraid that we will all be expelled. If we are not dealt with, Jia Ru may exaggerate the harm of this demonstration in front of the Queen Mother. Mo'an, now our question is how to keep the outcome of the matter within an acceptable range. You can't even write, the three of us are the organizers of this demonstration, I believe that the Queen Mother and the ministers of the Political Hall also have an understanding of the status and influence of the three of us among the Tai students, in case they are used by someone with a heart, the matter will evolve into the King of Xiangyang and Wang Cheng secretly instigating the entire Tai students to launch an attack on the imperial court policy, trying to usurp the power of Daxia, and then spread some rumors, which will really affect the status of the King of Xiangyang in the heart of the Queen Mother. ”

Shi Zui's words made Li Mo'an cold to the bone, challenging the entire Daxia management, the crime of usurping power was too big, and a cold sweat flowed down his spine, it seemed that he still thought about the problem simply. This stone drunk is not simple, he actually saw so far in such a short time, and he didn't think of many problems at all, and he deserved to be known as a Taixue duo with Lu Mengxiong.

"Mo'an, you go and persuade Mingzhi again; If you really want to write, it is better to only talk about disaster relief, and not talk about anything else, and it must be done in accordance with the procedures of the imperial court. ”

"Okay, I'll go." understands that Shi Zui wants to control things, of course he agrees with this kind of thing, after all, Peng Mingzhi is his friend, and it is his duty to persuade him by himself, and he is also the best candidate.

The next day, Peng Mingzhi handed over his book to Tang Pincheng, a great Confucian of Taixue Sacrificial Wine, and Tang Pincheng handed over the book to the political affairs hall, Jia Ru was furious after reading it, and immediately summoned Peng Mingzhi again.

Shi Zui and Li Mo'an waited anxiously for Peng Mingzhi to go to the Taishi Mansion, only the two of them knew about Peng Mingzhi's book, and the two talked about the result of the matter in a low voice in Peng's Mansion, Li Mo'an actually had no hope, he had completely believed in Shi Zui's judgment.

Two hours later, Peng Mingzhi came back, Shi Zui and Li Mo'an hurriedly caught up, Li Mo'an's surname was anxious, and he asked, "How is it, what did Jia Ru say?" ”

Peng Mingzhi smiled and said, "It's nothing." ”

"You're going to kill me in a hurry, say it quickly." Li Mo'an grabbed Peng Mingzhi's shoulder.

"I was really told by Brother Shi Zui, Master Jia said that it was instigated by someone, and said that I was young and ignorant, so I should write a letter of repentance, otherwise I will no longer care about the affairs of other more than 300 classmates who were arrested."

Shi Zui and Luo Mo'an were stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect Jia Ru's reaction to be so big, calm down, Shi Zui hurriedly asked Li Mo'an and Peng Mingzhi to go to Xiangyang Palace's mansion to find Gan Tang,

After listening to Peng Mingzhi's words, especially what Jia Ru said, Gan Tang sat on the bed and drew horizontal lines on a blank piece of paper with the charcoal pen in his hand, but he knew very well in his heart that Jia Ru was ruthless, and it seemed that he had left a way, but in fact, Peng Mingzhi had no way out at all.

To write a letter of repentance, you must admit that you were instructed by others, so who is the instigation, it can only be yourself and Wang Mingzhi, in this way, Peng Mingzhi can stay in Taixue, but his reputation in the world will be over; And the handle of himself and Wang Mingzhi is left in the hands of Jia Ru, if Jia Ru doesn't make good use of it, he won't be Jia Ru. But they can't say it explicitly, because they don't have that understanding yet.

Seeing that he was silent, Li Mo'an's heart sank, they were all independent figures in the school, but last night, Shi Zui's analysis of the development of the incident conquered him, and the result of the incident also proved that Shi Zui was correct, so they subconsciously hoped that Shi Zui could come up with an idea.

"You have fallen for Jia Ru, and those three hundred students are not in danger of dropping out of school at all, after all, this time it is the imperial court that is at fault, at most they will be given a warning, or if it is serious, they will be transferred from inner students to outer students."

Gan Tang continued: "On the contrary, Peng Mingzhi is the most dangerous, and now that Jia Ru and Zhengshitang have Peng Mingzhi's evidence in their hands, it is possible that Zhengshitang will use Peng Mingzhi to kill chickens and monkeys." You look for Tang Pin City, and let Tang Fuzi take the initiative to give a warning or stay on probation in Taixue to see if it works. Gan Tang said to Li Mo'an seriously.

"I'm looking for a few classmates with backgrounds in the imperial court to find the elders in the family, and let them come forward to dredge up the relationship with the other Zaifu in the political affairs hall."

"Through this incident, the contradiction between me and Jia Ru in the court has been put on the surface, and it is not good to contact other members of the political hall, so I have to go to the palace now to talk to the Queen Mother." After Gan Tang finished speaking, he immediately instructed Shao Huan to have his carefully prepared four-wheeled cart ready, and Jiang Shun pushed him out of the house and walked towards the palace.

Peng Mingzhi understood what Gan Tang meant, if he couldn't plead, he had to leave.

After Gan Tang left, Li Mo'an was stunned and said, "This is over, is there no other way?" The prince didn't say what Zhi should do. ”

Peng Mingzhi didn't feel anything, he clapped his hands: "Brother Li, the prince didn't say anything, he just said everything." ”

Seeing that Li Mo'an didn't understand very well, Shi Zui nodded, and said in his heart that it seems that Peng Mingzhi is an understanding person, and his future achievements will surpass Li Mo'an.

"What the prince means is that he is not sure about this matter, so everyone has to find a way to do it separately, and the letter of regret cannot be written."

Li Mo'an looked at Shi Zui and nodded when he saw Shi Zui, and then he suddenly realized. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Why can't you write a letter of repentance?" It's okay to admit your mistake. ”

Shi Zui and Peng Mingzhi looked at him in astonishment, the two of them didn't think about why they couldn't write a letter of repentance, they simply thought that they should adhere to the integrity of a literati and should not write words against their hearts.

Shi Zui thought about it for a while, and Prince Gan said that it was acceptable to give a warning or probation, but he never mentioned the letter of repentance, indicating that in the prince's heart, he believed that the harm of writing a letter of repentance was even greater than that of being expelled from school, why did he have such a judgment?

Through the analysis of the whole thing, Shi Zui suddenly understood, and then felt a wave of fear.

He suddenly stood up and shouted, "Mingzhi." ”

Peng Mingzhi was bowing his head and pondering, when he heard Shi Zui calling him, he raised his head, and when he saw Shi Zui's face, he felt bad, and asked, "Brother Shi, what's the matter?" ”

Shi Zui said to Peng Mingzhi word by word: "You must not write a letter of repentance, even if you are expelled from school, you can't write it, if you write it, you will have a ruined reputation in Taixue and officialdom, and this life will be over." And it will affect the status of the prince and the prince in the court, and all the consequences will not be borne by you personally. ”

In fact, Peng Mingzhi didn't think about the repentance at all, he thought that he was right, it was Jia Ru's mistake, it was the imperial court's mistake, but Li Mo'an's question just now suddenly reminded him of Gan Tang's words, but he hadn't thought about it so deeply, and now seeing Shi Zui so solemn, he suddenly thought of something.

He nodded: "Brother Shi, don't worry, I, Peng Mingzhi, am by no means a capricious villain, and I will never cause trouble to the prince and the prince." Whatever the outcome of this matter, I will bear it with all my might, and I will regret it, I never thought about it. ”

Li Mo'an didn't speak at this time, frowned and thought about it and said: "The family has provided us step by step to the present, so that I can glorify my ancestors for the family, if Ming Zhi is really expelled, how can I explain to the family?" ”

"Mo'an, the book of repentance seems to be nothing, but in fact, it is deeply evil,......, as for the family..., I came to propose to the prince, with the prince's status in the imperial court, Mingzhi does not take the imperial examination, and he has a very good future." Shi Zui whispered his analysis to the two, and the two suddenly realized.

Li Mo'an looked at Shi Zui with admiration: "It's still Brother Shi who is amazing, I didn't expect these at all, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed." ”

Shi Zui said self-deprecatingly: "Where am I powerful, it is the prince who is powerful, I thought of it from him." He didn't mention the confession just now, which means that he thought it through at that time. Seeing Li Mo'an's look of disbelief: "Don't believe it? You ask Mingzhi. ”

Seeing that Peng Mingzhi also nodded, Li Mo'an was suspicious.

Peng Mingzhi said slowly: "The prince's sense of smell is indeed keen, and his talent is more than a step above me, do you remember the teahouse in the south of the city?" But I always feel that there is something missing in him..., well, it should be the vitality of a young man, he is too calm, too concerned about gains and losses. Brother Shi, I don't think he has the indomitable courage of Wang Xianggong. ”

Shi Zui shook his head and said: "Mingzhi, my opinion is the opposite of yours, Wang Xianggong can only be Xiao He, Han Xin, Zhang Liang, but the prince can be Liu Bang, I can always see the hope of Daxia from the prince, but the prince is younger than me, how do I think that the prince is like Jia Ru, as if he has been honed in the officialdom for decades, it is indeed incredible." ”

Peng Mingzhi opened his mouth, but when he saw Shi Zui's serious expression, he didn't say anything anymore.

In midsummer, the sun is like fire, but it can only stop the vigorous greenery between heaven and earth. In the palace city, a hundred flowers are blooming, and there is a lot of purple and red. It adds a bit of beauty to the carefully renovated Miyagi.

Although the building is small, the space inside is quite large, divided into three parts by the curtain, and the middle is laid out in the shape of a small Ming Hall, Gan Tang sat on a four-wheeled car, and was pushed into the space separated by the curtain on the left by Jiang Shun.

This is a space of about 100 square meters, and there are one or twenty officials dressed in vermilion in it, although they are fighting a little loosely, but the order is orderly, as if they are being ruled by an invisible ruler.

As soon as Gan Tang was pushed in, all the Zhu Zi officials looked at him in unison.

In addition to Jia Ru, the eyes of these Zhu Zi officials looking at Gan Tang were not only curious, but also shocked at most.

The commander of the City Defense Division has already explained the cause of the incident in detail, and these officials naturally know what happened, and they also know the relationship between this prince and Wang Mingzhi in their hearts, and it can even be said that without this young prince, today's shock to Jiankang would not have been spread, and there would have been a riot of scholars all over the world.

The reason why the word "riot" is used is because today's events and even the roars and even cheers that can be clearly heard here just now make these dignitaries change color, and at the same time, they also instantly think of the "national riot" recorded in the "Chinese" during the reign of King Li in the Western Weekend.

Of course, now is not the year of the Western Weekend, and the current Queen Mother is not the faint King Zhou Li who is more protective of the people than of Sichuan. Today's Qingjin torrent theory, which is composed entirely of scholars, is even more incomparable to the "Chinese riot", but for some reason, Zhu Zi's officials still couldn't help but think of this for the first time.

Perhaps it was because the cause of both was due to maladministration and dissatisfaction with the current government, and the "Chinese riots" that occurred in the Western Weekend year. In the end, it ended with King Zhou Li being ousted from the throne by the angry people and banished from afar.

At that time, these flashed in their minds, and the Zhu Zi officials were forced not to let themselves think about it anymore!
