Chapter Seventy-Two: Door-to-door questioning

A few emaciated Confucian students could not withstand the beating of strong men with their arms and waists, and soon, several people were beaten to the ground with their heads bleeding, and their mouths kept screaming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Su Heng stood aside, silently watching everything, without a trace of soft-heartedness, and naturally would not say anything to dissuade him.

And Wen Yuan didn't seem to be angry, and walked over in person, punching and kicking the Confucian students lying on the ground again, and shouting from time to time: "Since my son has grown up so big, no one dares to tell me to get out, you kid is so bold." ā€

After a breath, Wen Yuan said to the guards behind him: "Set a fire, burn this place, and let them know that this son is not something they can provoke." ā€

"Yes!" Knowing the character of their son-in-law, several strong men did not dare to hesitate in the slightest, and immediately went down to carry out the order.

It seems to be a bit of a fuss......

Hearing that Wen Yuan was going to set fire to this place, Su Heng's eyelids jumped slightly, Kong Lou is one of the landmark buildings of Kong Fu Academy, Wen Yuan made trouble and fought here before, maybe he could also use Wen Sitong's relationship to negotiate with Confucianism, and apologize, but if he burned here, it would undoubtedly offend Confucianism completely.

"Gongzi Wen, just forget it when you get angry, just set it on fire, after all, this will attract the envy of Confucianism." Su Heng lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and then persuaded Wen Yuan.

Su Heng dared to say this naturally because he understood Wen Yuan's character, and knew that he would repay him, as long as he persuaded him not too resolutely, he would never care, and if he said this, after the matter became big, it could also reduce the suspicion of outsiders about him.

Sure enough, Wen Yuan has always been arrogant and domineering, and he has the intention to show himself in front of Su Heng, and immediately said after hearing Su Heng's words: "Mr. Su, you are too merciful, when dealing with these people, you have to be ruthless, and beat them up once, otherwise there will be a next time, as for revenge, I am not afraid, my father, as the Taishou of Lingnan County and the ambassador of the imperial court, would he be afraid of a small Confucian branch." ā€

As Su Heng guessed in his heart, Wen Yuan would never give up, and the people below also began to pick up torches at this time and start setting fire from the highest floor of Kong Tower one by one.

As soon as the Confucius Tower caught fire, everyone rushed to flee out, standing outside the courtyard, you could clearly see the black smoke and skyrocketing fire from the spire of the Confucian Tower, under this fire, the books inside would be destroyed.

Wen Yuan stood outside with a smile on his face: "Haha, happy!" ā€

set fire to Kong Lou and beat the Confucian people, this matter is just a trivial matter in Wen Yuan's eyes, and he doesn't care too much, just like bullying ordinary people, this matter will not be put in his heart at all, but he is also tired for a day, and Su Heng offered to go back to rest, so the group walked back.

The news that Confucius Academy was set on fire quickly spread in Lingnan City, and the news naturally reached the high-level Confucian leaders in Lingnan City and the ears of Wen Sitong.

Wen Sitong is not as stupid as his own son, he clearly knows the power of Confucianism, otherwise he would not be polite to Confucian people over the years, and he will curry favor every time, and now after hearing the news that his son set fire to Kongfu Academy, he immediately asked people to check the reason, wanting to see if someone was using his stupid son.

After learning more about it, knowing that the matter had nothing to do with others, it was only the conflict between his own son and the Confucian disciples that caused a series of later incidents, Wen Sitong collapsed with a pale face.

The mouth also repeated: "Fool! What an idiot! ā€

Wen Sitong inquired that he went to Kongfu Academy with his son and Su Heng, if he was an ordinary person, then he could still find a way to blame Su Heng for this matter, saying that everything was provoked by him, and then secretly give Confucianism some benefits, maybe he could settle the matter, but what is Su Heng's identity, he is from the capital, and the Nine Emperor Princes and the Queen Mother are standing behind, if he really lets him choose, he would rather choose to offend Confucianism than offend Su Heng.

Although Confucianism is powerful, it is not big enough to determine the life and death of Chu officials in one word.

"My lord, the Confucian people are here." The concierge of the Taishou Mansion rushed in in with a panicked face, and said the last thing Wen Sitong wanted to hear now.

"Idiot!" Wen Sitong scolded again, and then said to the porter: "Hurry up, please come in." ā€

"Lord Wen, please give me an explanation for this matter, otherwise I will have to report the truth to the capital and ask the master's family to decide." The person in charge of Confucius Academy in Lingnan City is called Zhang Ye, and like Zhang Nian and Zhang Xian, they are all members of the Zhang family in the Chu State, and the Zhang family is all loyal followers of Confucianism.

As soon as Zhang Ye entered the door, he was angry and asked the teacher, he rushed over non-stop after learning that Kongfu Academy was burned, if it weren't for the fact that Wen Sitong was the Taishou of Lingnan County and was in charge of the power of a county, he would have brought someone over to capture it.

Wen Sitong is also a county guard, although you are a Confucian power, but you don't give face, as soon as you enter the door, you will be angry and threatened, he is also unhappy in his heart, but he knows that he is at a loss, or he bowed politely, let the next person serve good tea, and said: "Mr. Zhang, don't be angry, this matter is caused by my unfilial son, and he has been taught a hard lesson, as for all the losses of Kongfu Academy, I will make people double the compensation." ā€

Although Wen Sitong's posture was very low, Zhang Ye still had a gloomy face and shouted: "Compensation? There are many handwritten manuscripts of my Confucian great, as well as some hand-me-down books, can you afford to pay for them? ā€

Zhang Ye didn't wait for Wen Sitong to answer, and shouted again: "I order you to hand over your rebel son immediately, and I will bring it back to Shouyang to ask for guilt!" ā€

Set fire to Kongfu Academy, this is a major event that has not happened in a hundred years, Wen Sitong doesn't have to think about it to know what kind of punishment his son will be punished if he really has to hand it over to Confucianism, and immediately pleaded: "Mr. Zhang, I am also a county guard, and it is inevitable that there will be many important things to discuss with Confucianism in the future. I will be grateful for it by all means. ā€

Wen Sitong lowered his posture again, and at the same time hinted at various benefits in the future, but it was a pity that Zhang Ye was an old stubborn, sour and Confucian taste, so he didn't let go at all, and he had to take Wen Yuan back to Shouyang and hand it over to the master's family.

Seeing that the negotiation could not be reached, Wen Sitong sighed, he has been an official for many years, and he is also a calm person, so he didn't panic at the beginning, but said to Zhang Ye: "Okay, please Mr. Zhang also go back to rest, and hand over the rebel to you in a few days." ā€
