Every time Su Tiancheng participates in a debate, he takes Qu Qingze with him, and the meaning of this is also profound.

Qu Qingze's identity is different, every time he follows Su Tiancheng, he can quickly spread the opinions of these debates to the ears of the emperor, as long as he gets the support of the emperor, Su Tiancheng has the greatest support and confidence.

He also needs to get other support, the scholars of the Ming Dynasty, the strength is not small, sometimes, even able to influence the situation of the government, such as Zhang Pu in front of him, using the Restoration Society, left and right the imperial examination, influencing the decision-making of the imperial court, in Zhang Pu's side, gathered a large number of scholars, these people waved their flags and shouted, showing a strong attempt to participate in politics, they through many classmates, but also formed an unusual force, any individual, in front of them, is a little insignificant.

Su Tiancheng's influence is extraordinary, but after more than a year of development, he also has a problem, that is, because there are too many things, he only pays attention to doing practical things, focuses on taking into account the suffering of the people, works hard, and does not increase the intensity of publicity, so there are not too many literati around him, and everyone only hears his name and does not see him.

If you want to expand your influence, you don't have to brag about yourself, you don't have to show your governing philosophy, and you don't have to teach someone by hand.

Su Tiancheng didn't think about it, but in his heart, he was a little disgusted with this kind of practice, and now it seems that there was a mistake in his judgment at the beginning, and he still had to expand his influence through the opportunity of running a school and forming a society, and fundamentally shake the influence of the Donglin Party and the Restoration Society.

Some of the concepts of the Donglin Party and the Fushe are correct, and these correct concepts should be well absorbed, and those concepts that should be discarded should be unceremoniously discarded and criticized.

Control of school associations. It is to be strict, there are hundreds of people, all kinds of colors, knowing people and faces but not hearts, there must be small people who take the opportunity to get in. This requires a pure concept of running schools and associations, focusing on academic discussions, and prohibiting the formation of parties for personal gain and attacks on others to the greatest extent.

As long as the team can be purified to the greatest extent, such a school association should be carried out in a timely manner.

Today's opportunity is very good, through heated debates, we can once again expand our influence, and also show our own governing philosophy, so that Zhang Pu and others know the Tao. What kind of goal do you want to achieve?

"It seems that Mr. Zhang Pu has a treat, is a lot of exquisite, only people with status can participate, patrol according to the imperial history of Lord Wu downstairs waiting for guests, the specifications are not ordinary, but unfortunately, I am the magistrate of Jiangning County. What you see in your eyes is the suffering of the common people. What I think of is to do things for the people, for some so-called scholars, what kind of identity and what treatment do I pay attention to, I don't seem to see that in my eyes, the most disgusting thing in my life is self-purification. I thought I was a saint, and I came to the world to purify all sentient beings, and I boasted that I had a great deal of talk and laughter, and there was no vain correspondence. Relying on a bombastic mouth, he said the great truth of a saint and a gentleman, and he was used to pointing fingers. ”

Seeing that Zhang Pu and Qian Qianyi's faces had changed, Su Tiancheng was even more unkind.

"Mr. Zhang Pu, Lord Qian, Lord Huang, if you have such a opinion, you are not welcome, we do not agree with each other, this matter of eating and drinking is still exempt."

Before everyone could speak, Wu Weiye spoke.

"Zou Pingzhang, Master Su, Lord Qu and Brother Wang are all guests of the teacher, at least hospitality, you have to be clear, you are still a scholar, how to say this."

Zou Pingzhang's face was flushed, in front of Wu Weiye, he couldn't lose his temper.

"Master Su, I apologize to Zou Pingzhang, Brother Wang, please sit down, Lord Su, don't be angry, forgive me."

The atmosphere inside the private room has changed subtly.

Zhang Pu and Qian Qianyi's expressions looked a little serious, but Huang Daozhou's demeanor was different, looking at Su Tiancheng, his eyes revealed the meaning of appreciation.

After drinking the first glass of wine, Zhang Pu spoke.

"Master Su, you and I are classmates, it's rare to have such an opportunity today, I speak very directly, if there is anything offended, please forgive Master Su."

"Mr. Zhang Pu is old, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, I will listen to it."

"Master Su has only been in Jiangning County for more than a year, and he has done a lot of things, which I admire very much, Jiangning Ying has made so many meritorious deeds, captured Zijin Liang alive, forced Lao Huihui to commit suicide, win more with less, such credits, I dare not imagine."

The higher you hold it, the harder you fall.

There was no expression on Su Tiancheng's face, he would not be fooled by a few words, and he didn't know what was going on.

"Lord Su raided Kuang Siming's mansion, the thunderbolt method, so that I admire, recently, I heard that Jiangning County has some new actions."

Su Tiancheng was a little impatient, what did Zhang Pu mean when he spoke about the clouds and mountains and fog, if he wanted to be direct, he would say it, let it go if he had a fart, and he seemed to be at a low level, but in fact, everyone could hear the unkind meaning in his words, since it had reached such a point, what to do.

"Mr. Zhang Fu, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."

Zhang Pu smiled on his face and spoke slowly.

"There is a saying, Lord Su must know the Tao, the scholar can be killed but not humiliated, for thousands of years, the reader is such a temperament, for the country and the people, go to the soup and fire, at any cost, it is precisely because of this, my Ming Dynasty emperor is wise, agrees with the character of the reader, and gives the reader a lot of favors, these favors are the reader should enjoy, I don't know if the Lord Su of the Tao of the Ming Dynasty agrees with this truth."

A smile also appeared on Su Tiancheng's face, such a pediatric topic was also brought here.

He didn't answer, looked at Zhang Pu, and waited for the words that followed.

"If Lord Su doesn't say it, it's a tacit acquiescence, then I don't understand, since the gentry and rich households enjoy the favor of the court, what Lord Su said for what to say, what to be grateful for, to pay, what to say about the gentry and rich households, should have become an example for ordinary people, righteous people first and themselves, what gentry and rich households say one thing. is high-sounding, but behind it is a dime, what you see in your eyes is your own interests, saying that the actions of the gentry and wealthy families make many people think. What qualifications do you have to judge. ”

"What scholars need to consider is the major affairs of the family and the country, taking the rise and fall of the world as their own responsibility, and the righteousness is full of heaven and earth, regardless of personal knowledge, and does not care about personal fate. Isn't this the greatest insult to scholars and scholars, and isn't it the enemy of scholars all over the world. ”

"The favor enjoyed by the scholars is given by the emperor, and they should enjoy it, and the scholars must be respected by the society, and the worship of everyone, if anyone thinks about it, it will shake the foundation of the reader. I would like to ask the people who read the world will agree. ”

Speaking of the back. Zhang Pu's tone was a little stern, and he had already shown an unusual demeanor.

After saying these words, Zhang Pu looked at Su Tiancheng and looked a little disdainful, as if he had stood in the position of a critic, and Su Tiancheng was here to accept criticism and admit mistakes.

"Zhang Pu. Are you done? ”

Su Tiancheng suddenly spoke, which surprised everyone, you must know that Zhang Pu is the leader of the Fushe and is respected by many scholars. No one has ever dared to call him by his name, but he didn't expect Su Tiancheng to call him by his name directly.

Zhang Pu's face became ugly.

"Su Tiancheng, I'm done, I'll remind you at the end, I hope you know that you respect people."

"Haha......"

Su Tiancheng raised his head and smiled.

"Zhang Pu, there is a sentence called Dezhi is rampant, what is your attitude, what is your identity, is the official of the court, someone calls your name, you can't stand it, I don't want to say ugly words, just remind you, have self-knowledge, don't think too highly of yourself, some people praise you and worship you as a god, I Su Tiancheng doesn't care about you at all, to put it nicely, we are classmates, it is not good, I am an official, you are a people, at least the rules, you have to be clear."

Zhang Pu's face was red and white for a while, obviously I don't know what to say, as the person in charge of the Restoration Society, he is sought after by many scholars, and during his time in the Hanlin Academy, Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the cabinet, respected him, and he didn't expect to plant such a big heel in front of Su Tiancheng.

Thinking about it carefully, Zhang Pu really couldn't lose his temper, he originally resigned from the position of the Hanlin Academy, but he was registered, not a court official, Su Tiancheng was the magistrate of Jiangning County, a serious court official.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about what you just asked, there are a few questions, I want you to answer them, since we are debating, it is mutual, no one should think of treating themselves as saints, holding a huge shelf, specifically to accuse others, to put it mildly, such an attitude, I don't pay attention to it at all, if it weren't for Brother Wu's face today, I would have brushed my sleeves away."

Inside the private room, it was already very quiet.

Qian Qianyi and Huang Daozhou had a conversation with Su Tiancheng, but the atmosphere was good, not at all like today, and they looked very hot on the field, completely tearing off the veil of warmth.

Qian Qianyi originally wanted to speak, but when he saw such a situation, he was silent, people still have to be interesting, Su Tiancheng's sharp words, he also understood.

As for Huang Daozhou, he has been pondering for a long time, he is not a member of the Donglin Party, nor is he a member of the Fushe, but in terms of knowledge, he is somewhat similar to Qian Qianyi, Zhang Pu and others, and after talking with Su Tiancheng, there are some truths, he is also thinking, and he feels that what Su Tiancheng said still has some truth, not a bunch of nonsense.

Wu Weiye's situation is very embarrassing, Zhang Pu is his mentor, and Su Tiancheng is his most admired classmate, at such a time, he can't express his position, and whoever he supports is a harm to himself, but it is unreasonable not to express his position at all.

Huang Tingping, Yi Ligao and Zou Pingzhang have no qualifications to speak, and they don't dare to interject at will.

Qu Qingze's expression was the most relaxed, he had every reason to believe that Su Tiancheng would definitely be able to teach everyone a hard lesson, he had already seen such a scene, no matter what kind of character he faced, Su Tiancheng could talk eloquently and say a convincing truth, and it was the same today.

Wang Dazhi's face had no expression, what he cared about was Su Tiancheng's safety, and he would never worry about the rest. (To be continued.) )
