Zhao Wushuang and the others, who were sitting in the largest VIP box in the Drunken Dream Pavilion, heard the roll call behind them, and knew that the four celebrities and scholars had really all arrived. At least at this point, it can be regarded as giving the Dragon God Sect enough face. It made Zhao Wushuang feel quite comfortable in his heart.

Xie Lingqing was originally a member of the Guangdong Shilin group, and he was also the leader of the younger generation, so he immediately got up and bowed to Zhao Wushuang: "Dragon God, my subordinates will go out to greet you masters first?" ”

Zhao Wushuang waved his hand: "Go ahead." By the way, Elder Chen and Elder Yang should also go with the Divine Envoy of Thanks, which can be regarded as a sign of my Dragon God Sect's respect for scholars. ”

He had spoken, Chen Liansheng and Yang Ye naturally couldn't refuse, and they and Xie Lingqing respectfully retreated. Then they left the box together and walked towards the antechamber.

Yang Ye seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and muttered in a low voice: "What's so great about a scholar? It doesn't depend on us to fight the world. ”

Xie Lingqing smiled and didn't speak. Chen Liansheng, who was Yang Ye's "old boss", reminded him solemnly: "Elder Chen, pay attention to your words, since it is the decision of Lord Longshen, there is no room for disobedience and questioning. You'd better cooperate with the envoys and be respectful to the people who come to read. ”

He listened to these words with a slight lesson, and immediately stopped saying more and adjusted his mentality. I greeted him......

At the same time, a group of young scholars in long robes walked into the hall of the Drunken Dream Pavilion under the leadership of four old men with white beards, all of whom looked polite and walked with style. At least the appearance is still good. The shopkeepers and others on the side all showed envious looks, while the high-level leaders of the Thirteen Elements of Guangzhou and the Dragon God Sect who were standing at the dinner table were noncommittal.

In their opinion, this group of so-called meritorious scholars are respected by the people of the world and enjoy many privileges, but they have not made any contribution to the people of the world at all. Where it is like waiting for oneself, it will either bring wealth. Either resist foreign enemies. It's a real thing.

But some readers naturally don't see it that way. They feel that the world has been peaceful for a long time, and the reason why it has recently begun to be chaotic and has the atmosphere of a dead country. It is precisely because people's hearts are not ancient, they do not cultivate virtue, and everyone is blinded by interests. In addition, the rulers of the imperial court do not follow the code of conduct according to the words of saints. So heaven warns.

This mode of thinking is almost the same as the brain-dead theory of "the country is solid, and there is no danger in Germany".

If it is said in the strong era when the country is at its peak and all countries are coming to the dynasty, it can be understood as political showmanship and pretense. But when the world is changing drastically and the mountains and rivers are falling, they still hold such thoughts and take it as a guideline. If Lord Ryujin knew about this, he would definitely want to bite off his head!

But fortunately, not all scholars have such thoughts, and Zao Wushuang has no time to pay attention to a group of idle young scholars. His target was the respected leaders of Shilin......

But among this group of young scholars, there is a man named Huang Deqing. He is a descendant of Huang Zhongxian's clan, although he has some talents. But he thinks very highly of himself. Every day I feel that as long as I make myself a feudal official, I will definitely immediately adjust the wind and rain to the peace of the country and the people, but there is no chance.

His fame ranks among the top three among the younger generation of scholars in Guangdong Shilin, second only to Xie Lingqing and Guo Xu's son Guo Mingda.

This time he came to contact the Dragon God Sect, he was originally strongly opposed, and his attitude was worse than that of his third uncle Huang Zhongxian. I think it's just a folk religious group that relies on swagger to deceive and coax the common people. It's just that when I fell in love with these snobbish businessmen in the Thirteen Lines of Guangzhou, I felt that I was awesome and forced to deal with noble scholars?

It's ridiculous!

Therefore, as soon as he entered this drunken dream pavilion, his nose was not a nose or an eye, and it was uncomfortable to look anywhere, and his head was raised high. It's quite like a big rooster that shows off its might.

A gentleman next to him tugged at his wide sleeved robe. Remind Huang Deqing not to be too arrogant. After all, even the well-known Confucian scholars in Guangdong have given face to come, and they are all young students. Even if you don't agree, you shouldn't be too rude.

He snorted coldly: "What kind of Dragon God Sect Dog God Sect, it's just to coax the ignorant people at the bottom." Do you really want to come when I am my third uncle? It's just to sell the military general Chen Liansheng a face-I heard that this time he also mixed up with Zhang Luo, because he defeated those Fanbang barbarians. It's called the country of the British chicken. ”

"It's England." Another scholar who was more open-minded and had been exposed to new things kindly reminded him.

Huang Deqing waved his sleeves dissatisfied, a little disgusted: "Such a small overseas country is not worth mentioning." Who can remember the name? I want to use Ban Chao to run the Western Regions in the past, and I want to do what I want. The hundred countries of the Western Regions did not dare to disobey. Besides, when the Tang Dynasty was at its peak, a war could destroy the sixteen countries of the Western Regions. Today, the territory of the Qing Dynasty is larger than that of the Han Dynasty, and it is not inferior to the Tang Dynasty, and it should be so. ”

This old-fashioned element who only knows how to bury himself in the pile of old papers and read the so-called Three Outlines and Five Constants, Four Books and Five Classics. Actually compared the Manchu Qing with the Han and the Tang Dynasty! And it will be compared to the British Empire, which is absolutely powerful in the world and is still on the rise, compared to the truly small countries in the Western Regions.

Such remarks are so brain-dead!

Even Zhao Wushuang. Objectively, we have to admit the strength of the European powers.

He continued: "If I had been in a high position, it would have been easy to defeat them. It is the incompetence of those who are now in high positions that make the villain successful. Today, I not only want to see what kind of virtues the people of the so-called Dragon God Sect are, but also want to question General Chen why he fought against the small country of Xiyi and suffered such heavy losses. But how brilliant are the results? ”

This time, except for his fox friends who are closely related and attached to the Huang family, no one around him has spoken out to persuade him.

These scholars all understand in their hearts that this guy has made up his mind to be a-stirring stick today!

Speaking of which, Huang Deqing does have crazy capital. He has a little talent for poetry, but when his family and country are in danger, he really has no use at all. It's ridiculous that this guy is still so self-righteous.

The gentlemen here sat down in turn under the guidance of the shopkeeper, and did not mention it for the time being.

Cheng Mingzhang, Huang Zhongxian, Guo Xu, Liu Yunzi and other respected Confucians, as well as some Shilin celebrities, accompanied by Xie Lingqing, Chen Liansheng, Yang Ye and others, walked towards the most luxurious box upstairs. Zao Wushuang was waiting for them there, both of them having some curiosity and expectation for each other.

Unbeknownst to everyone, there was a-stirring stick sitting in the hall downstairs. I plan to find an opportunity to give the Dragon God Sect and the people of the Thirteen Elements a dismount. so that they can know that this world is not only the world of the royal family, but also the world of scholars. Those merchants and reckless men in the army, who do not understand the learning of the saints, must all be put aside...... (To be continued.) )
