Chapter 52: The Parade of Bad Taste
What is righteousness, in the eyes of these students, the words of the saints they speak are righteousness.
What is righteousness, in the eyes of the Tokyo people who are watching around, what the officials and ministers are talking about is righteousness.
What is righteousness, in the eyes of some people with ulterior motives, righteousness is just a fig leaf.
For example, today, the students who shout for righteousness must not know that their marches, petitions, and books are actually what some people want to see.
All savings, all calculations, all everything, will be decided at this last moment.
Success or failure, give it a go here.
When Shen Xun knew, in fact, the matter was irreparable, he knew the Tao here, he didn't say it, he just sighed deeply, and didn't say anything else, just a person who returned to the small Buddha hall he built for his deceased wife in the backyard.
When Cai Qing knew, he just smiled slightly, sat in the center of the main hall, looked at the bright sunshine outside the hall, and said lightly, "The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and the idle change is the old people's heart!" β
When Lin Jing knew, he just smiled indifferently, stood on the platform of the high Shenxiao Wanshou Palace, pointed to the palace city in the distance, and asked lightly to Zhang Yan beside him, "Ruoming, you say, what will the official family do?" β
Zhang Hui lowered his head and said softly, "The disciple doesn't know ......."
"******** are mostly scholars," Lin Jing said with some sarcasm, "They still don't understand the official family, they are too naΓ―ve, and they are too anxious......"
"Ruoming, go tell Qingxi about this......"
"What?" Zhang Hui raised his head, looked at Lin Jing with some surprise, and asked suspiciously, "Is this appropriate?" β
"Hehe......"
Lin Jing smiled meaningfully, and said loudly, "After all, people are also for her!" β
The small courtyard behind this Shenxiao Wanshou Palace is still calm, after all, the people who live here are all poor people in Tokyo, and no one will care about these national affairs, but when a government official came to Lu Zhi to report that even the girls in the teaching department wanted to support this petition activity, the illusion heard it from the neighbor next door.
The Great Zhou Dynasty has always been like this, and the news that should not be delivered usually spreads faster than the news that should be delivered.
And for the things that should not be involved, I want to be more enthusiastic than the things that I should participate in.
For example, when the petition of the students began, the man with the most keen eyes was Qing. The women found a good opportunity to become famous.
As long as they support these students, then they will be applauded, no matter what happens to these students. Lou women will still be recognized by Shilin, maybe there will be literati who will write poems and lyrics to them, and then the whole city of Tokyo. Lou Chu Pavilion stands out.
Maybe they can't compete for the name of the Oiran of Tokyo City, but for them, who thinks that such a reputation is less?
So along the way, anyone who met Qing. In the Lou Chu Pavilion, there are always those originally reserved girls who come out to greet them, or hand them tea, or play a song to make a strong voice......
So some of the restaurants that are not on the direct path are green. Lou or the like, instead, sent someone to greet in advance, and led the team to the front of his own store to entertain him.
In this way, the prestige of the procession grows louder, but the route to the palace becomes more winding.
This student petition movement has become a carnival for the entire city of Tokyo.
Li Dong stood in front of the carriage, his face was solemn, because he drank some sake, his face was flushed and he looked at the large group of people leading the way in front of him, this kind of momentum, this kind of prestige, this is something he has never experienced.
At this moment, he thought that he represented all the people in the world, he represented the literati Shilin, he represented justice and righteousness, what he wanted to do was to make him famous in history, and their students would become the existence that everyone admired just like the students of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
He, Li Dong and Li Shaozhang, will become a new generation of rising Shilin leaders!
Li Dong is not from that poor family, the family is also an official family, his father Li Qian, the word is Zhengji, the name is Mr. Yuliang, the official to supervise the imperial history and the palace of power to serve the imperial history. He is a well-known official of the clear stream. Because his father is a royal history, he has been influenced by his father since he was a child, and he is jealous and hateful. But he is very intelligent, and he worships Zhang Chu's father Zhang Yanzheng, Zhang Yanzheng is the leader of the literati in the seven northern provinces of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with a family history.
Therefore, it is not unfamiliar to these power schemes.
As soon as this happened today, he knew that someone was calculating, and even how he should do it had already been planned, so he couldn't help but go. Even if he refuses at the time, he is afraid that he will be coerced away, and when the situation is even more uncontrollable.
And now, everything is in his hands, and this feeling makes the heart of a young man who is only less than twenty years old excited, and even at this moment, he feels that the eldest husband should act like this.
Holding righteousness, moving forward all the way, winning food and prosperity, it is not incorresponding.
The Great Zhou Dynasty, for 200 years, cultivated scholars, admired literature and suppressed martial arts, and had already made literati the most advanced existence in this society. A small talent can be respected as a master, and a person will be complimented as a father.
He, Li Dong, is only eighteen years old, he is the first student of the country, and in the near future, he may be named on the gold list, and then the teacher will naturally go to Shen Xianggong's mansion to propose marriage, a talented and beautiful woman, a good story.
All of this was supposed to be the best.
But it came to an abrupt end.
He thought that this was the end of the matter, and that it would be just a spring in the future. Dream without a trace.
But today, if he arrives at the Golden Palace, he will become the hero who saves her, and she, the little lady of the Shen family, may not know that there was once a man who marched, petitioned, and wrote for her to save her from fire and water.
Li Dong, who was thinking of Pian, didn't even stop the twists and turns of this route, or he subconsciously wanted to delay that time, the later he could reach the palace, the later he arrived.
Emperor Xuanhe is not the kind of gentle, elegant and modest he seems on the surface.
His father once said to him that in this Great Zhou Dynasty, in the city of Tokyo, there will be no more than three people who can calculate Emperor Xuanhe.
He Li Qian is not, and neither is his teacher Zhang Yanzheng.
Li Dong even looked at the road ahead with some faint worries, will his private behavior bring any disaster to his father, but as Zhang Chu said, it is difficult to ride a tiger, what can I do about it?
Before the trance, Li Dong seemed to see a fairy, standing in front of her, and other Qing. The difference between the woman in the building is that there is no desk in front of this woman, no tea, wine and fruit, only a green dress, which looks fresh and refined.
Li Dong was a little startled, his heart was shocked, he suddenly came to his senses, and asked very suspiciously, "Miss Xia Dai......"
