Ma Yu didn't want to come, but under the pressure of Zhang Quan and Zhao Hao, Ma Yu had to come.

Ma Yu didn't want to show up, but after Wang Mang had already named the White Horse Academy, Ma Yu had to stand up.

Ma Yu stood up is attitude, in the Great Qin and Jixia School Palace, he chose the Jixia School Palace, in fact, as early as when he brought a group of outstanding scholars from the White Horse Academy here to intercept the imperial army, Ma Yu was already on the opposite side of Wang Mang, but Ma Yu never wanted to admit it.

In Wang Mang's eyes, Ma Yu is slender and graceful, and looks like a gentleman like a spring breeze, and this is also the impression given by most Confucian students, but now Ma Yu's face is not good-looking, he came from a distance, but in an instant, he arrived in front of the high platform, and said respectfully to Wang Mang: "Ma Yu, an outsider, has seen Your Majesty, I wish Your Majesty a prosperous Spring and Autumn Period, Ma Yu is a citizen of Daqin, and he dare not go against His Majesty, His Majesty laughed." ”

Wang Mang looked at Ma Yu coldly, and Li Lan, who was standing beside him, pointed to the high platform where he was lecturing and shouted: "Ma Yu, you said that you don't want to go against Your Majesty and the imperial court, so what are you going to do now?"

Ma Yu looked embarrassed and said: "The two on the high platform are university scholars invited by Ma Yu from the Jixia School Palace, and they will give lectures here, I will listen to the lectures here, the time and place have been set a long time ago, Ma Yu did not know that the army of the imperial court would pass through here, so this happened, this is all a misunderstanding, please forgive me." ”

"Misunderstanding!" Li Lan shouted: "What a misunderstanding, I think you just want to go against the imperial court, against Your Majesty, and let your people get out of the way quickly, otherwise you will let your blood splash on the spot today!"

Ma Yu's expression was even more ugly, although these words were not said by Wang Mang, but they must have been instructed by Wang Mang, he didn't expect that he would put on the name of Jixia School Palace, and Wang Mang would be so strong.

Could it be that Zhang Quan and the others have something to hide from me?

Ma Yu said in his heart, but continued on his face: "Your Majesty, Ma Yu really has no intention of going against Your Majesty, once this lecture is placed, it needs to be placed for a day and a night before it can be removed, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the saint, and Ma Yu can't help it." ”

"Do you mean to let the imperial army and let His Majesty wait for you here for a day and a night?" Li Lan sneered.

Ma Yu's expression froze, and he said embarrassedly: "Ma Yu also knows that this matter is a little inappropriate, but as a scholar, the awe of the saint has always been the same, and the desire for knowledge has always been the same. ”

"Joke!" Li Lan shouted: "When did you, a foreigner, dare to negotiate terms with the imperial court and His Majesty?"

Ma Yu, who was repeatedly questioned by Li Lan, and looked down on the eunuch in his heart, was also a little annoyed, so he looked at Wang Mang and said: "Your Majesty, the White Horse Academy has been diligent and diligent for many years, and has imported many talents for Daqin, and the contributions made to the strength of Daqin are obvious to the world, and Your Majesty also knows, Ma Yu, as the president of the White Horse Academy, is not to mention meritorious, at least it is a little face, Your Majesty always lets this little eunuch talk to Ma Yu, is it too disrespectful to Ma Yu? Or is it that Your Majesty is disrespectful to the White Horse Academy behind Ma Yu?"

Wang Mang looked at Ma Yu at this time and sneered: "Ma Yu, now I give you two roads, one is that you get out of the way, I give you a face to let you go, and the second is that I lead people to kill you directly, you can choose one of the two roads." ”

Ma Yu looked at Wang Mang with a shocked face, from Wang Mang's expression, Ma Yu couldn't see the slightest joke, and couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, I am Ma Yu, the dean of the White Horse Academy, the White Horse Academy is the first academy in Daqin, the White Horse Academy that has sent countless scholars to Daqin for many years, and the people who give lectures here are the scholars of the Jixia School Palace, even if Your Majesty doesn't give me Ma Yu's face, won't Your Majesty give me the face of the Jixia School Palace?"

"Face is earned by yourself, not by others. Wang Mang said coldly: "I don't care what you Ma Yu or the White Horse Academy did before, now you stop the imperial army from going to Hangu Pass, it is a big crime, if it is a crime, you will be punished, and if it is punished, you will have to admit it." ”

Ma Yu, whose face turned pale when Wang Mang said it, shouted: "Your Majesty, don't you even give face to the Jixia School Palace?"

"Jixia School Palace, I naturally give face, but two people who are swaggering and deceiving in the name of Jixia School Palace, do I need to give them face?" Wang Mang said coldly.

As long as Daqin is still in the mainland system, Wang Mang will not be able to really turn his face with the Jixia School Palace, in the same way, the Jixia School Palace can secretly make small moves, but it must not be openly said that he wants to intervene in the internal affairs of various countries, after all, on the surface, in the eyes of the world, he is only and will always be a saint school, and he will always be neutral.

Jixia School Palace did not announce to the world that he was going to attack Daqin, even if everyone knew that Jixia School Palace was attacking Daqin, but if he didn't show it, he didn't show it, and Wang Mang would never easily make enemies with Jixia School Palace.

This time, the people from the Jixia School Palace came to stop Wang Mang's army from rescuing Hanguguan, but they were only the people from the Jixia School Palace, and there was no official document from the Jixia School Palace, the meaning was very clear, and everyone did things according to their abilities.

For this situation, Wang Mang knows very well, whether it is Jiang Wen or Zhang Quan and others, Wang Mang will be treated as a liar, so that no matter whether he wins or loses, he will not put the contradiction between Daqin and Jixia Xuegong on the table.

Ridiculous politics!

Wang Mang sneered, hearing Wang Mang sneer, Ma Yu panicked, he also realized something wrong at this time, but he is difficult to ride a tiger now, so he can only follow Zhang Quan and others to the black, otherwise he will offend Wang Mang and Jixia School Palace, if the two ends are not good, how can there be his way to live.

Gritting his teeth, Ma Yu said loudly: "Your Majesty, these two people are not liars who are swaggering and deceiving under the banner of Jixia School Palace, one of them is called Zhang Quan, and the other is called Zhao Hao, they are university scholars appointed by Jixia School Palace, and they have a very high status in the academic world, I knew them when I was studying in Jixia School Palace, and I will not be wrong about this." ”

"Really?" Wang Mang said coldly: "But I see that the two of them look strange, they are not good people at first glance, and they are liars at first glance, I think you should call the two of them down for interrogation." ”

Li Lan didn't wait for Ma Yu to speak, and shouted directly: "Bold Ma Yu, don't hurry up and bring those two liars to Your Majesty as Your Majesty ordered." ”

As soon as Wang Yongji and the others did the ministers of the Qin Dynasty, they took a step forward at the same time, and suddenly all kinds of momentum pressed towards Ma Yu, Ma Yu was in a cold sweat, his expression was flustered, he was at a loss, and he didn't know what to do at all.
