Chapter 121: Betrayal and Stepping Stones
"Student Qin Shou, meet Master Jia."
Qin Shou shook his respectful hands at Jia Yidao, fell to the ground deeply, and said loudly.
There was a dead silence in the room, and this time it was a real dead silence.
When enemies see each other, they should indeed be very blushing. It's just Qin Shou, but it directly makes people's eyeballs burst out.
The eyes of the scholars who came back to their senses were surprised and meaningful, but more undisguised disdain. I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such shameless.
Although, this disciple ceremony was originally said to be good at the gambling contract of the Seyuan Poetry Club. But no one really believed that Qin Shou and the others would do this after losing.
Everyone is a literati, and they all read the books of sages. What is the most important thing for literati, integrity. However, this Qin Shou in front of him had obviously already thrown all the gods and horses into the Mongolian desert.
However, then again, ask yourself, if they are faced with the situation of offending like a god, and losing extremely miserably, what choice should they make? Is it to give up the status of Jinshi that has been hard to get for more than ten years or even decades, or is it the same as Qin Shou to bow and bow to Jia Yidao and bow to that disciple?
The question came out, but many people didn't know how to answer it.
Here, Wang Ke and Du saw Qin Shou like this, and they had completely ghostly expressions.
The poetry meeting of Seyuan should be the scene that the three of them are most reluctant to recall in their lives. At the Seyuan Poetry Meeting, they not only lost all their face, but also lost all the **** in the inside, of course, if they really wore ****.
On top of the poetry meeting, Zheng Qingzhi needed them to touch the bottom of Jia Nidao, and at that time, there were indeed many people who thought that Jia Nidao was a person who sold fame and reputation, and there were indeed many people who stood on their side.
But after really finding out the bottom of Jia Nidao, how could Zheng Qingzhi really have a bad relationship with Jia Nidao because of the three of them? How can the three little jinshi who have no power, no power, no talent and no character compare with Jia Nidao, who has a deep sacred heart and a special ** harem, and is pregnant with a dragon concubine Niangniang as his sister?
The two sides are not a heavyweight at all, and it is self-evident which is more important.
Of course, it's not that there is really no one behind the three of them, but the school of science standing behind the three of them, although they finally gained a foothold in the court because of their embarrassment with Qiao Xingjian, but after all, they haven't stood firm, right? Even Qiao Xingjian was just using Yuan Shao and the others to use each other, not to mention that Yuan Shao, who was the teacher of the three of them, had already died last year.
The other bigwigs of the Lixue faction in the court, such as Zhen Dexiu, Wei Liaoweng and others, turned a blind eye to what happened to the three of them after offending Jia Nidao, how could Zheng Qingzhi lend a hand.
Therefore, after the poetry meeting in Seyuan, it is not an exaggeration to describe the days of Qin Shou and the three of them as years. This is not important, the important thing is to see that the various Jinshi classmates of the Wuxu Branch have successively issued official edicts, but the three of them were stunned and did not move at all, and went to ask to see the prisons of various schools of science in the court, but most of them were closed, even if they reluctantly looked at Yuan Shao's feelings and met them, they were vague about the situation of the three of them. The warmth and coldness of the people can be seen.
Because of what?
Because Yu Tianxi not only controls the household department, but also the secretary of the ministry. Unless Zhao Yun has a life, no one can interfere with Yu Tianxi. Although Qiao Xingjian is the prime minister of Zuo, Qiao Xingjian is far from reaching the realm of covering the sky with one hand and above ten thousand people under one person when Shi Miyuan was far away.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but it's impossible for Zhao Yun to let the second Shi Miyuan appear. Of course, in the original history, the emergence of Jia Nidao was also a helpless move.
The huge Great Song Dynasty is no longer available. Zhao Yun, who has entered his twilight years, has long lost the enterprising mentality of his youth, and only thinks that he can be happy in time and maintain that appearance to continue the Great Song Dynasty, which is enough.
After all, there are many things in the world, but there are a few people who send charcoal in the snow. Not to mention, being in officialdom.
The scholars basically watched what happened to Qin Shou and the three of them coldly, and even gloated a little and secretly rejoiced. After all, the power of the Lixue faction in the court is not small, if it weren't for the fact that the three of them happened to poke Jia Yidao with their eyes, I am afraid that the three of them would have to snatch three good positions again.
In fact, the people of the science school are not really standing idly by and watching the three of them, but are waiting for an opportunity. Moreover, Qiao Xingjian has already made a move, but the levels involved and the risks caused by the battle are far from being able to participate in and get a glimpse of them, and it is naturally impossible for these white-bodied Jinshi to know the Dao.
However, it was precisely because of the cold sidelines of the school of science that Qin Shou and the others thought that they and the others had been completely abandoned. Although self-abandonment is a bit exaggerated, the state of the three of them is almost the same.
The three of them, who were suffering from the same disease, simply went directly to the same inn to live.
At this banquet, I don't know where Qin Shou heard that Jia Yidao would come to participate. At the beginning, Wang Ke and Du said that they were unwilling to come. Literati, pay attention to integrity, and admitting gambling and losing is also a kind of integrity, and it is a very important one.
Seeing that Jia Rudao really performed that disciple ceremony, he couldn't afford to lose his face, and he couldn't do it at all; But if you don't do that disciple ceremony, I'm afraid that the integrity of the literati will also be lost.
It's not a person inside and out, so it's better not to go.
However, after Qin Shou patted his chest and assured that Jia Nidao would definitely not pursue this matter and that there was a way to resolve the feud between him and Jia Nidao, Wang Ke and Du were both moved.
After more than ten years of cold windows, it is not easy to have the capital to advance, who is willing to be **** like this, and there is no need to spend time with a full stomach of talent. Of course, this full of talent is also what they think they are. Whether there is or is not, only they know the Tao.
The two of them who were moved followed Qin Shou with a cheeky face.
It's just that things have developed far beyond the expectations of the two. Wang Ke and no one expected that the method Qin Shou said would be such a method. The most important thing is that what the two of them really find difficult to accept is that he did this without consulting the two of them beforehand.
This is to use the two of them as his name and stepping stone to flattery Jia Rudao.
Qin Shou had already bowed to Jia Rudao as a disciple. However, Wang Ke and Degree, who were also involved in the gambling contract, did not, Wang Ke and Degree knew that Qin Shou had not discussed this matter with him, but others, the fellow students in the lobby did not know the way, so they naturally thought that the two of them did not want to practice the gambling contract.
Qin Shou, the first to eat crabs, although he lost his integrity, but he confessed to losing the gamble with a promise, but he checked back a lot of integrity, right?
If Wang Ke and Du, who had already been determined to not want to fulfill the covenant at this time, went to perform the discipleship ceremony again, I am afraid that not only would they not be praised, but all their integrity and face would be lost.
Being forced and voluntary, those are two very different natures, aren't they?
In the field, the most embarrassing ones now are Wang Ke and Du, who were used as stepping stones by Qin Shou.
