"Well, that's good!"

Before Zhang Sheng could open his mouth to refute, the cheers had already resounded, and even if the old man had anything to say, he could only be drowned. [Full text reading]

In fact, the onlookers have long wanted to applaud, afraid to be afraid, but most people don't have a good impression of the celestial induction, who wants to have such a god on their heads?

It's just that no one dares to argue, and there is no way to argue, after all, all kinds of disasters are real, big or small, and there will always be a few times a year somewhere in Daming.

And most people didn't hear the metaphors in Zhang Cai's words, but because his words were easy to understand and the truth was straightforward, everyone listened to it clearly. At least in the case of the champion Hou, the celestial and human induction advocated by the scholars is not very effective, and there is even a suspicion of slapping himself in the face.

Whether it is Xie Hong's own miraculousness, or the so-called natural science is the truth, the people are happy to see it.

If Hou Ye is favored by God and comes on behalf of God's will, then from his consistent style, everyone has hope, and it is not a dream to live a good life.

Tianxin Benren is very obvious in Hou Ye. Although most of the people are illiterate and don't understand any big truths, their eyes are bright, including when they were in the capital, they remember everything Xie Hong did.

That's right, Hou Ye's methods are indeed ruthless and courageous, but he has never bullied the people, look at the people he cleaned up.

The original Jinyi Wei Fanzi, don't look at it now, they are all decent, but during the Hongzhi period, those guys didn't have any good things; The soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, these people can only be summed up in two words, scourge! According to their duties, they were supposed to maintain law and order in the capital, but at least half of the security problems in the capital were caused by these scourges; Then, the most that Hou Ye cleaned up was the ministers of the court, and for these people, the people's perceptions were a little complicated, and there was even a process of change in mentality.

When the old emperor was there, there was no Houdefang in the capital, and there was no roadside club, and everyone's understanding of the government and politics was obtained from those who read the books.

Therefore, although life has not gotten better, and even worse than in the Chenghua years, prices are a little higher, there are more corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and public security is also a little worse, but everyone still thinks that the Hongzhi Dynasty is a good year, and the people in the court are prosperous and prosperous, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Of course, the small people are such a mentality, even if they don't really feel that their lives have changed for the better, but since they can still live and some people are promoting it in their ears, they can only think that the beautiful vision they hope for in their hearts is gradually coming true, even if it is simply a beautiful dream.

However, when Xie Hong arrived in the capital and triggered a series of trends, they gradually realized that there are many ways to live a good life, change their fate, and get ahead.

Compared with the ethereal Zhongzheng Ying Dynasty or the Great Truth, the changes that occurred in the first year of Zhengde are real and tangible.

If you have a craft, you can be a craftsman, unlike the outside, no one in the Ordnance Division discriminates against craftsmen, and the treatment is even more favorable, which makes people blush; If you have a bright hand, you can be a player, whether it is baseball or billiards, as long as you are good enough, you can fight for the name of a protégé of the Son of Heaven, and even compete with the Son of Heaven; Those who have courage can join the army; Good at dealing with people, and then some people can do business, not only the dealers of Zhenbao Zhai, but also the sea trade that is about to come out, and it is no longer a vain thing to fight for wealth; There is also the academy with the greatest influence and the highest degree of attention, which does not charge tuition, and there is no class in teaching, which is the purpose of the academy, which is much stronger than the previous government schools and private schools.

More than a year has passed, and most of the people have found their place in it, even if they can't do it, they will put their hopes on their children and grandchildren, otherwise there will be no fundraising.

Therefore, they also realized that the way of the world is a little different, and what the reader said before does not seem to be quite right. Especially after the turmoil in August last year, everyone who was killed or dismissed from office was charged with many crimes.

Those are not just crimes, but real sins.

Before the murder, the charges of the criminal officials were publicized in the court, and many bitter masters were taken to the scene, and the most impressive thing for the people of the capital was none more than the case of the son of Zhang Fuhua, the former left capital Yushi Zhang Fuhua, who drove in a car in trouble, hit the girl, and then ran over several times, the victim's flesh and blood were blurred, and he died on the spot.

What a murderous act, when the criminal Zhang Shuhe was beheaded, the girl's parents cried hoarsely, but their eyes were full of gratification, and the scene was deeply engraved in everyone's hearts.

These are the so-called scholars, they claim to be upright men and gentlemen, pillars of the country, and they are all sanctimonious on the surface, but in private they bully men and women, and do all kinds of evil.

In the list of prisoners, there is no shortage of so-called Zhongxing ministers; Among the long list of crimes, there are also all kinds of heinous crimes, only what people can't think of, and there are no bureaucrats who can't do it, and corrupt officials and corrupt officials are among the least serious crimes.

Seeing all this, the string in the hearts of the people finally broke, and the doubts about the scholars became more and more, and they completely erupted a month ago.

Seeing that Liaodong was suffering from disasters and did not provide relief, he laughed happily when he saw that the people of Liaodong were going to starve all over the place...... In the hearts of the bureaucrats, there is no place for small people, and even the concept of the state is very vague, they only care about their own power and wealth. Not to mention the so-called gentlemen, whether these people can be called human beings is probably debatable.

Therefore, the people of the capital abandoned the scholars and changed their beliefs, and they firmly believed that if they believed in the emperor and the marquis, they would be able to live a good life!

If the Hou Ye represents the sky, then it is the mercy of the heavenly heart, overturning those silverfish in the name of scholars; If natural science is the truth, then it is even better, everyone in the capital knows that many colleges in the academy teach natural science, as long as you want to learn, you can have the same ability as Hou Ye, and serve the emperor under Hou Ye.

Therefore, Zhang Cai's performance was heartily applauded by countless people, and he was also overjoyed in his heart, knowing that he had made the right bet.

Of course, his happiness was also based on the pain of his opponent, and listening to this deafening cheer, Zhang Sheng and the great Confucian who came with him could only tremble.

Before coming, they had already expected that this academic battle would be extremely difficult, Xie Hong had always liked to engage in intrigues and tricks, and this time it was planned and then moved, and of course it would not be easy for the scholars to deal with it.

Therefore, among the great Confucians who came this time, except for Zhang Sheng, there were no important ministers in the court.

The son of a daughter can't sit down, those people are used to it, of course, they have to test it first, and then calmly plan to make a move, in order to avoid risks, if they dispatch a university scholar at the beginning, and then make a disgraced face, then do you still need to fight the battle later?

Zhang Sheng imagined that the other party might use Fanzi, if there were scholars who refuted it during the preaching, they would directly arrest people, this was the kind of routine when Confucianism engaged in academic disputes, Dong Zhongshu took the upper-class line back then, and laid this model.

The current one, that is, Zhang Cai's first and scholarly debates, Zhang Sheng also expects this, but he is not too worried, Xie Hong has a lot of talents, but there are not many scholars, and on his own side, hum, there are so many corporal in the world, how can he lose in the debate?

In the last court meeting, although the imperial party gained the upper hand, Zhang Sheng didn't care, that was because the emperor's black whistle was making trouble, otherwise, how could the Shi party lose to others? Even if there is an imperial party today, they can't move the emperor here, right?

It was precisely because he believed that Xie Hong would use violent means, so despite realizing all kinds of difficulties, Zhang Sheng still came, full of anger and injustice, and planned to show his iron bones in front of the world, in order to leave a name in history and pass it on to the world from generation to generation.

Well, he even thought of the slogan before the uprising, but he didn't expect the current situation, Zhengde's black whistle was indeed not there, but public opinion was still one-sided, and the entire capital seemed to be on the opposite side of him.

The cheers of the torrent and tsunami were like stormy waves, and Zhang Sheng felt like a flat boat, and in front of the power of heaven and earth, only trembling remained.

This...... What the hell is going on? What kind of demagogic skills do you need to do to achieve this level? Zhang Sheng's body trembled, his heart was dazed, and he was speechless for a while.

In addition to the reversal of public opinion, in fact, Zhang Cai's question is also difficult to refute. For the people, the two possible surnames listed by Zhang Cai are what they like to see; But for Zhang Sheng, both sides of this question are traps.

As a great Confucian and a high-ranking official, he is very determined, although he also maintains awe of heaven and earth, but he does not blindly believe in Dong Zhongshu's set, so he doesn't care about the intimidation in Zhang Cai's words.

But if he wants to refute it, he must either admit that God favors Xie Hong, or he must recognize natural science, otherwise he can only mess around.

This trick Lao Zhang Sheng is also good at it, he has been an official for so long, and he has cried a hundred and eighty times in the Jinluan Palace, every time he lies down, he can smell whether the Jinluan Palace has changed the carpet, which shows the depth of his skills.

But in such an atmosphere, it is difficult for people to hear their voices, and Zhang Sheng will not be naïve to think that he still has the qualifications to mess around.

You know, what he is facing now is not the generous and benevolent Hongzhi, but the tricky and eccentric Zhengde, and the people of the capital who were completely bewitched by Xie Hong, crying? That would just make people laugh.

Looking at Zhang Cai on the platform, full of spring breeze, Zhang Sheng felt sad in his heart, he understood that the tone of this academic battle was Wendou, although there were fewer talents on Xie Hong's side, but they had the sharpest weapon in their hands, that is, the natural disaster in Liaodong!

When countless scholars rejoiced because of this, it can be called a sharp weapon in the hands of scholars, and now, just like those things before, this weapon has been stabbed back, and it has become sharper through the sharpening of the people's hearts, and the knife is bloody, making people unable to resist, and their hearts are like ashes.
