Chapter 355: Secret Fight (5)

Everyone followed the voice, but saw that the person who spoke was a young man in his twenties, named Wan Lei, who was a well-known scholar in the Guozi Prison. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

As soon as everyone was questioned by him, they all blushed a little, as Wan Lei said, at this critical moment of the Great Song Dynasty, these people are here to be vassally elegant, and they are really not what a scholar should be.

"Wan Lei, what do you think about today's situation? The old man listens to you, and seems to have an idea? An old man asked.

Wan Lei stood up with an iron face: "That's natural, Mencius once said, the people are important, the monarch is light, and the society is secondary, the reason why the world is chaotic today is because today's son has no virtue, jealousy and jealousy, in my opinion, when today's son should be Zen, and choose someone else as the emperor." ”

"Don't talk about it! After all, the stakes are high. "Another old Confucian.

"I don't think so." A young scholar obviously had his own opinions, and said: "Although Zhao Gu, the Duke of Zhuoguo, has only returned to the Great Song Dynasty for four years, he has outstanding military achievements, can be literary and martial, is low-key and introverted, and never forms gangs, which is in line with the way of a gentleman, it is better for him to be the master of the Great Song Dynasty, I think under his leadership, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely develop and grow, far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties." ”

"Having said that, I'm afraid that the current emperor will not agree, and then there will inevitably be a big war between the two of them, resulting in the misery of life." An old Confucian thought about it, and finally said very steadily.

Pan Lang saw that everyone was talking about state affairs, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "You don't know, as far as I know, Zhao Gu, the Duke of Zhuo, has already contacted the troops of Western Xia and Liao, and he himself occupies Zhending Mansion and Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, but he did not send troops to Kaifeng, why do you think so?" ”

"Is he afraid of losing to the court?" After a scholar finished speaking, he shook his head again: "This is impossible, Zhuo Guogong's Northern Expedition and Western Expedition have good records, and I am afraid that no one in the court can defeat him, how can he be defeated." ”

The other scholar nodded: "That's true, is it because there is no food in the hands of Duke Zhuo Guo?" ”

Pan Lang shook his head: "No, no, Zhao Gu, the Duke of Zhuo, should not want to start a war and cause unnecessary damage to the soldiers." ”

"I see." Everyone suddenly realized, thinking about it, it is exactly this truth, otherwise I am afraid that Zhao Gu has now hit Kaifeng City.

"Speaking of which, Zhuo Guogong is not a person who pursues fame and fortune, the reason why he rebelled in person should be that he can't stand the persecution of the emperor, you think, if he is a person who pursues fame and fortune, how can he make so many elegant poems? The so-called text must have a righteous heart, and his righteousness shows that his heart is right. A scholar then said.

Wan Lei hugged his fist at this person: "This brother is reasonable, Zhuo Guogong is indeed not a person who cares about fame and fortune, so he has not sent troops so far, and even if his cavalry rebelled, he has not caused any casualties so far." On the other hand, the current emperor, after he learned that Zhuo Guogong rebelled, he first sent people to kill Zhuo Guogong's family, and then went around arresting the guys of Zhuozhou Commercial Bank, and actually exterminated all of them in the nine clans, which was really too cruel and not done by the Holy Monarch. ”

Everyone said one word at a time, and after a while, even Zhao Guangyi's plan to be given to Chai Jun by Chuanxia Road, and Xixia to Xia Weibing and Li Jiqian was also poked out, and all the literati were a little red when they heard the news.

Splitting the country is a taboo in the country, and the literati naturally poke their noses at it.

At this time, even some old Confucians, who had always been calm, began to express their opinions, and they all felt that Zhao Guangyi's actions were a little biased and not in line with Mingjun's style.

At this time, Pan Lang once again threw out a bombshell news.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I also heard one thing, it is said that yesterday in the Zichen Palace, the emperor intended to let the ministers of the court negotiate with Zhao Gu, how to make Zhao Gu withdraw his soldiers and horses and return to the Great Song Dynasty, but just when Lord Li Fu was about to ask for his life, the emperor actually directly assigned Lu Xiangye to go, and the reason for this is also very intriguing!"

"What do you mean?" The crowd was puzzled.

Wan Lei seemed to be in Pan Lang's psychology, and asked: "I have long heard that when Zhuo Guogong first arrived in Kaifeng, he was murdered by Lu Xiangye several times, and the emperor sent him there, so he is not afraid that Zhuo Guogong will retaliate against Xiangye?" ”

"What's there to be afraid of, Lu Xiangye is the leader of the literary world, does Zhao Gu really dare to do anything to him? Isn't he afraid that the literati in our world will criticize him? A literati shook his head ignorantly and smiled.

"Then what if Zhuo Guogong really killed him?" Wan Lei asked.

"Then we must avenge Lu Xiangye, he is the backbone of the world, if he is killed, the Great Song Dynasty literary world will be ruined!" The gentleman swore an oath.

Wan Lei sneered: "You know about this matter but you don't know why, you only know that you will avenge Lu Xiangye when the time comes, but you don't think carefully, who wants him to die?" ”

Shizi frowned: "What do you mean?" Don't blame Zhao Gu, do you blame me? Or is it the blame for the emperor? ......, do you mean that the emperor just wants Lu Xiangye to go to Zhao Gu, if Zhao Gu really kills Lu Xiangye, he will be attacked by the world's scholars? Is that what it means? ”

This scholar finally understood, and after his analysis, the others also understood it, and they all couldn't help but feel a burst of fear in their hearts.

Thinking that Lu Xiangye has worked hard and assisted the current emperor for nearly 20 years since he was the champion in high school, how could the emperor dare to harm him like this?

"No, we have to report this matter to Lu Xiangye so that he can avoid a crisis!" An old Confucian.

Wan Lei said: "Lu Xiangye is afraid that he has already guessed it." ”

"Then why did he go to Zhending Mansion?" The old man asked.

"This is going to talk about Zhuo Guogong, do you think he is really a person who must be compared? Would he really kill Lu Xiangye ruthlessly? No, I don't think he will, so although this matter starts off with a murderous start and is as cold as winter, the ending will definitely be a silent spring rain, quietly ending, and will not cause any turmoil. Wan Lei replied.

"Well, that's the truth. Alas, what's wrong with him, is it true that all the words and things he has said and done for so many years are being done for the world to see? As soon as the catastrophe came, he immediately revealed his true nature? The old man sighed.

"I'm afraid that's not it, that's why I said, instead of you watching calligraphy and painting here, it's better to think of a way to save the people of the world." Wan Lei said.

"How to save?"

"It's very simple, find someone who is suitable to be the emperor, assist him to quickly pacify the world, fix the country, and then govern the world." Wan Lei said bluntly.
