Five-eighty-0, crossbow sting
When planning the university city, Zhou Quan consciously avoided some big trees. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This large locust tree is one of them, because it is so big that four people can't hug it, and it has become a landmark when the university city is not fully built. When a lot of people meet, they will make an appointment in this place.
Especially every day, there are students from all walks of life, here to point out the passionate words, as if they are already the ruler of the world, so there are few people who come to quarrel, come to sell melon seeds and dim sum and rent small benches, and like Wang Lin, etc., they meet and debate on the surface, but they actually come to fight.
The incident happened a lot, and the patrols did not care, so when dozens of scholars began to gather the next day, they only sent more men and did not disperse the two sides.
These patrols are the same idea as Di Wei, instead of letting these scholars spend their energy on criticizing Zhou Quan and Shixue, it is better to let them fight among themselves, and finally beat each other's dog brains out first, so that there will be fewer buzzing flies in the world.
But there are also people who come to see the excitement.
Ying Tianfu's economy has risen rapidly in recent years, and there are a lot of more citizens, who have some money and a little leisure, so they naturally like to join in the fun.
There is a bustle here that doesn't need money, and they rarely have to gather over, which makes the patrol a little nerve-wracking. By now, they had simply circled a place for the exclusive use of these brawlers.
It was the first time for Zhou Yu to see this kind of excitement, so he was relished, and it was none other than Zhou Quan himself who brought him to see the excitement.
It's just that Zhou Quan has made some decorations, and he can't recognize him unless he is very familiar with him.
He heard Zhou Yu go back and say that he had met a little friend named Lu You, and learned through the intelligence system that the two sides of the war had Wang Anshi's great-grandson, so he became interested and wanted to see what would happen.
As for whether the fight will turn into bloodshed, Zhou Quan is not worried - he used to be a student himself, and he has seen a lot of fights between students and girls for seats, for cutting in line, or even just for unpleasant sights, at most, his nose is blue and his face is swollen, and the limit is to break two bones, what big deal can happen?
Besides, isn't there still a patrol on the side!
"Which one is Wang Lin?" When a group of young students walked under the big locust tree, he asked curiously.
"The one whose head is not tall and walks a little bit outside is the one who walks." Lu Jae said next to him.
Zhou Quan was not worried about Zhou Yu and came to watch the fight, and he was also not worried about his four-year-old son, who also came over to watch the fight. The parents of the two children met for the first time, although Lu Zai also used to be a high-ranking official, but Zhou Quan was released when he was active inside and outside the capital, so he didn't know Zhou Quan.
Even so, Lu Zai was quite polite to the "participation in politics" of the Privy Council of the new dynasty, especially after the two talked, Lu Zai found that although he didn't read the sage's articles very much, he didn't seem to understand some of the allusions in his words, but he had a very high level of practical learning, which made Lu Zai have the heart to make friends.
If the two sides can become a good family, even if he wants Xiao Luyou to learn practical learning, he will not worry about having no access and connections.
Lu Zai believes that whether it is old learning or practical learning, there is one aspect that is the same, although learning is important, the connections formed in the process of studying are even more important. Since this "Li Participating in Politics" can become a political participant, he must have his own connections in the upper echelons of the new imperial court, and if he can make friends, Lu You will be able to use this network in the future.
"It's a pity that Jing Gong I is a hero, but his descendants are a little unsuccessful." Seeing Wang Lin's appearance, Zhou Quan sighed.
He admires Wang Anshi a little, in this era, those who dare to shout "the ancestors are not enough to be lawful, the sky is not enough to be afraid, and the words of people are not enough to be compassionate" should really have some fearless spirit.
"The withering of new learning begins with a mixture of fish and dragons." Lu Zai also sighed and said euphemistically.
In his opinion, the key to having no successor to Xinxue is that there are too many scum mixed into Xinxue. When there are too many scum, the true Magi will stay away.
"Perhaps." Zhou Quan did not argue about this topic.
Soon after Wang Lin arrived, the other party's people also arrived. The two sides argued a few words, and the people watching the excitement on the side couldn't wait, and someone shouted: "Fight, fight, what are you waiting for?" β
These people who came to see the excitement did not come to listen to what moral articles they discussed, of course, they had to see the fights, and preferably some blood, so that they would have something to talk about when they went back. A fierce fight can even make them discuss it for half a year, and they will never get tired of it.
Wang Lin is no longer as impulsive as yesterday at this time.
Hearing the shouts of those idlers, he was even less interested in fighting, if so, what was the difference between him and the clown?
He was hesitating, but he could be seen by the Luo Xue disciple opposite him, but he was discouraged. Between the other party's words, he even insulted Wang Anshi himself, so that Wang Lin couldn't retreat.
Seeing that the academic dispute turned into a personal attack, and then developed into a street fight, Zhou Quan was very satisfied, but Lu Zai kept shaking his head: "Sven sweeps the floor, Sven sweeps the floor, if you see it for King Ji, I'm afraid that I will also learn from Tang Taizong, saying that all the heroes in the world are in the middle!" β
Zhou Yu heard him talk about his father, raised his eyes and looked at his father, but saw Zhou Quan's expression calm.
Although Zhou Yu is young, he was born in a family like Zhou Quan, how could he not be precocious, he secretly learned in his heart, it turned out that his father could do this.
When others talk about him to his face, he can not change his face!
"Why did Mr. Lu say this?" Zhou Quan asked with a smile.
Lu Zai raised his chin slightly and motioned to the scholars who were twisting in a ball: "Now that all over Ying Tianfu are reporters from various newspapers, how can they let go of such a scene?" It won't take long for everyone in the world to know the ugliness of scholars, and by then, how many people will believe in these polite and righteous words? β
Zhou Quan laughed, and secretly gave Lu Zai a thumbs up in his heart.
This is indeed one of his intentions, and one of the important reasons why scholars have a high status in the eyes of ordinary people is that their knowledge is mystified, which makes ordinary workers daunted. But when the ordinary laborers found that the scholars were no more than that, it would be difficult for the Confucian scholars to regain their former influence.
They watched the excitement here, and the dispute over there had gradually become white-hot, and at first it was just pushing, but at this time they had already raised their fists. It's just that everyone is a scholar, naturally a scholar is dressed up, one by one long-sleeved and wide-sleeved clothes, it is not very convenient to pick up a fist, so after a few strokes, it becomes you pull my hair and I pull your clothes.
Lu Zai shook his head when he saw it, thinking that this would teach bad children, so he pulled Lu You to turn around, not wanting him to see it.
Then he saw something faintly pointing at Xiao Lu You in the crowd.
No matter who you are, when you see something pointing at your son, your first reaction must be to protect your son!
Lu Zai hugged Lu You, directly used his body to cut off the things pointing to his son, and then heard a loud sound!
A hand crossbow arrow shot out, directly into Lu Zai's thigh, he screamed in pain, and at the same time, another crossbow arrow also shot out, this one was nailed into Wang Lin's heart!
Wang Lin, who was scuffling with someone, trembled his body, and before he knew what was going on, he completely lost consciousness.
"Murdered!"
"Murder, terrible, murder!"
In the crowd, there were people shouting, and those who were watching the excitement, there were hundreds of them, and they scattered in an instant, and the assassins were also mixed in the crowd, trying to take the opportunity to escape.
Lu You was so frightened that he cried, Lu Zai covered his legs and fell down and moaned, while Zhou Yu turned pale and looked up at his father.
Zhou Quan pursed his lips and hugged Zhou Yu, his gaze became cold in an instant.
There are assassins!
He didn't expect that in such a situation, especially in the city of Yingtianfu University, there would be assassins!
And there is more than one assassin, Zhou Quan has experienced a hundred battles, and he understands the matter better than others, there are two people holding crossbows to assassinate, and there are also comrades who shout and make noise to make chaos, so that the assassins can get out of the chaos!
It's just that the means are still too amateurish.
Zhou Quan brought Zhou Yu here, although it was a private visit to Weifu and there was no pomp, it did not mean that there were no guards around him.
Unhurriedly followed him like four domestic servants, personal guards, and about seven or eight paces away from them, there were eight guards who faintly lined up the others.
Farther away, there were more than twenty guards on the periphery, and in fact, when the Assassins took out their crossbows, some of these guards noticed that they were charging directly at the Assassins!
The original target of the assassins was not Xiao Lu You, but Zhou Yu, but the guards around Zhou Quan intentionally or unintentionally separated Zhou Quan and Zhou Yu from each other, and they never found a suitable opportunity.
So the Assassins thought they could get away by messing up the crowd so that the patrols couldn't react in time, which was naΓ―ve.
Their methods were simply not enough in front of these professional guards, so after a few moments, the guards grabbed the six of them and pushed them to the ground.
The guards around Zhou Quan looked at Zhou Quan, and Zhou Quan made a gesture, so they also signaled.
At this time, the patrol was already looking at the guards with a wary face, and some patrols even began to blow their whistles wildly, and nearby patrols stepped forward to support. One of the guards stepped forward and showed them his documents, and the patrols breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Zhou Quan walked to the place where Fang Cai was still scuffling, where Wang Lin fell to the ground, and a Luoxue scholar who had just fought with him was pale and sitting in the dust with blood on his hands.
Zhou Quan stepped forward and bent down to probe Wang Lin's snort, Wang Lin had already lost his breath.
He turned around, came to Lu Zai's side again, and saw that Lu You was still crying, so he said to him: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, your father will be fine...... Yu'er, comfort your friend. β
Zhou Yu's own face was still pale, but he was older than Lu You and had more knowledge, so he stepped forward to hold Lu You. Zhou Quan squatted beside Lu Zai and looked at his injuries again: "How do you feel?" β
Lu Zai himself is also a scholar, where did he go through this kind of thing, his face was ugly in pain, and when he heard Zhou Quan's question, he endured the pain and groaned: "Pain...... Pain...... But it should be fine, so what happened to Wang Lin? β
"It's dead." Zhou Quan said, his gaze becoming colder.
