Chapter 271: Turmoil
.......
Fengzhou, South Liang City.
Two streets away from Yangxiao Hall, there is a restaurant with three floors of private rooms.
A scribe in Tsing Yi sat by the window, looked at the Yangxiao Hall in the distance, and sighed slightly:
"The people attracted by the 100th birthday of the Taoist Governor are really not small, and Nanliang City can't live there........ I also wanted to go to Yangxiao Hall to taste the fine wine and food handed down by the Taoist chief, but now it seems that there is no chance, but it's a pity, it's a pity. ”
Recently, there have been quite a few people in the martial arts who come and go to Nanliang City.
The inns near Yangxiao Hall are almost full, and many houses are also full.
The reason is the 100th birthday of the king.
Another man in a gray robe shook his head slightly when he heard this: "Brother Xu, you just came here but you don't know that this Yangxiao Hall has been almost full every day for several years, but it is not because the birthday of the Taoist is approaching. ”
"After all, it's the best in the world, and it's not surprising."
Xu Chong nodded slightly, drank the wine in the cup, and said slowly:
"Brother Wang, you have lived in Nanliang City for a long time and want to know a lot of royal deeds, you might as well talk about it."
"Brother Xu can't be a spy from any family, right?"
Wang Gang glanced at his friend who he hadn't seen for many years with some vigilance, and then smiled:
"It doesn't hurt if it is, everyone knows the deeds of the king's power, and whoever you ask can know."
"What do you mean by that?"
Xu Chong hurriedly drank a glass of wine, his wide sleeve robe covering his twinkling eyes.
"The royal power is different from other martial arts schools, the entry conditions are not high, as long as you enter the Wenxin Hall, you can read through the Daozang within three years, you can worship under the royal power of the Tao, however, there are not too many people who can learn martial arts so far......."
Wang Gang picked up the wine that Xu Chong poured and drank it all:
"After three years of asking the heart hall, the disciples of Wang Quandao's disciples either have to open mountains and cultivate the land on weekdays, or go to various places to give lectures, and then they can learn martial arts."
"Lecturing?"
Xu Chong poured him wine, pretending to be curious: "Tell about the essence of Taoism? Will anyone listen to this? ”
"It's not just Taoist essence, there are some other things."
Wang Gang was slightly drunk, and slowly became more talking.
Xu Chong listened, thoughtful.
Wang Quandao is based in Fengzhou, and for several years, Fan Zimin has used the name of Wangquan Dao to convey the laws and regulations of An Qisheng in Fengzhou's state capitals, counties, gangs, and sects.
The heinous ones are killed, the big evildoers are killed, and the lesser evildoers are captured and the royal power is paved with the road.
Many mountain bandits and thieves who once encircled the Huayan Mountains have been swept away, and the opening of many trade routes has made Fengzhou prosperous.
And many disciples of Wang Quandao, after three years of hard study in the Wenxin Hall, have to go to many state capitals, counties and counties to give lectures and spread the law.
Xu Chong kept asking and pouring wine.
Not long after, Wang Gang was already drunk on the table.
"Brother Wang? Brother Wang? Wang Gang? ”
Xu Chong pushed him twice, and saw that he was drunk to death, but he was still not at ease, so he took out the drug and blew it on his mouth and nose.
After listening to the sound of his breathing getting heavier, he pushed open the door and walked into the private room next door.
"Brother Xu!"
"Big brother!"
"Young brother!"
In this private room, there were already several people waiting.
These people were all quite young, dressed in scribe clothes, dressed elegantly, and an old man, holding a scroll, looking at it meticulously.
When they saw Xu rushing in, they all looked at him.
"Uncle."
After Xu Chong returned the salute one by one, he looked at the old man holding the scroll in his hand and bowed slightly:
"What Wang Gang and others said is not much different from what we know."
He feasted more than just Wang Gang.
"It's only been a few years since he ascended the throne, but such a big change has taken place, and the culprit is really the king's ........"
The old man put down the scroll in his hand and sighed slightly:
"This move is really indescribable......."
After Han Weigong ascended the throne, he ruled by Qing officials, opened imperial examinations, reduced the garrison of one million, and kept the Tibetan army in the people, saving a lot of taxes and alleviating the burden on the people.
He also sent many generals, accompanied by the masters of the imperial court, to sweep away the bandits in the world.
Liu Yanchang led the Jinyi Guard, the six doors, and the masters of the East and West factories to travel all over the place, clean up the powerful bullies, and created a teaching hall, a school hall, and a village school with many powerful and powerful bullies.
Together, the two open up the wisdom of the people.
I don't know how many people's interests have been harmed, and some people are worried about it.
The Xu family is one of them, and it is only one of them.
In this world, there are no more Jianghu sects with a long heritage, and the Xu family is a thousand-year-old family.
After three dynasties, a real great family that has lasted for hundreds of generations.
Over the past thousand years, the Xu family has produced dozens of ministers, and there have also been great masters of the divine vein, which is a real great family.
"Uncle.......
Xu Chong's face changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Be cautious." ”
"It's okay."
Lao Ru waved his hand slightly: "That old Dao's martial arts are strong, and he is still an ordinary man, not a celestial being, nor a god, so that he can't even mention his name." ”
His voice was steady, but the rest of the group heard a hint of displeasure in it.
Xu Chong didn't say anything.
"Look at this scroll, the font is clear, although it has no aesthetic sense, but it is better than the low price, and the money for the dismantling of the army today is enough for me to have a volume of many classics in my Dafeng......."
Lao Ru glanced at the scroll and shook his head slightly:
"But now they do not know, and the people do not know that they know it, just like cattle and horses, why should they know too much? Books have been spread all over the world, no less than those madmen who once spread martial arts......
The harm is endless, and this move will be a disaster! ”
"Whether it's practicing martial arts or studying, it's not something that ordinary people can touch, so even if Liu Yanchang opens tens of millions of private schools, what about the teaching hall? How can those ordinary people compete with us? ”
Xu Chong shook his head:
Uncle was too worried, and when the wind blew, it passed. Just like the imperial examination, it once caused panic among countless families, but now it is not controlled by us? This has been the case throughout the ages, without exception. ”
Xu Chong didn't care too much.
Whether it is practicing martial arts or learning literature, they all need family wealth, and ordinary people do not have this qualification.
Even if all the classics are free, what if private schools and schools are not allowed to be restricted?
The vast majority of people in this world have nothing to worry about if they don't work every day, and they will go hungry.
Even if there are so many exceptions, either integrate into them, or be pinched to death casually, how can you shake the status of the family?
"Do you think I'm afraid that the status of the Xu family will be shaken?"
The old man's face sank slightly, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
Xu Chong suddenly fell to his knees, not daring to say anything.
"All things are born for use, plants and trees are eaten by cattle and sheep, cattle and sheep are eaten by beasts, and beasts are eaten by people....... There are people who are farmers, there are people who are farmers, there are people who farm, there are people who are craftsmen, there are people who are merchants, and there are people who manage the people, and this is the ....... for each to perform his duties."
The old man looked at Xu Chong and said lightly:
"When the farmer doesn't think about farming, the craftsman doesn't think about working, the businessman doesn't think about business, and the minister gets involved in others, the world will be chaotic, my Xu family is an official for hundreds of generations, after thousands of years, three dynasties, I have seen too much, this is a sign of chaos in the world.
The old man is here, is it just for the status of the Xu family? ”
"The child knows it's wrong."
Xu Chong bowed respectfully, his face ashamed.
The old man, who had heard what the others had said, fell to their knees and listened to the teachings.
"Remember, my Xu family is an official, not for the king and herdsmen, but for the heavens to guard, no matter who the king is, I don't care about the change of the court, what we maintain is the law of humanity!"
The old man tapped on the table, and did not look at the juniors who knelt on the ground, and looked out of the door with old eyes:
"Lord Liu still wants to listen to it, you might as well come in and stand outside the door, it's not the etiquette I am waiting for!"
Lord Liu?
What Lord Liu?
Xu Chong and the others were all discolored.
Today, there are not many people who can be called adults by the old man, and it must be Liu Yanchang, who has the highest status in the court today, with a brocade guard in his hand and six doors!
Bang Bang Bang ~
Crisp applause rang out.
Liu Yanchang pushed the door in, and under the crimson cloak, the goose feather knife loomed.
"Liu Yanchang!"
Xu Chong's face was solemn.
The rest of the people were also terrified.
Today's imperial court, this person is the most powerful, the most feared, the current king trusts him very much, not only let him take charge of the six doors and the brocade guard, but also the east and west factories and even many worship masters of the court are transferred with him.
There is even the right to mobilize troops stationed everywhere!
Over the past few years, he has traveled the world, and everywhere he has passed, there are people rolling around, family lords, bandits, horse thieves, and landlords, and I don't know how many people he has killed.
Killing god-like characters.
"That's a good point, it's just ......"
Liu Yanchang stepped in, his indifferent eyes swept over everyone one by one, and finally fell on the old man:
"Xu Changying, just because you also want to talk about humanitarian law?"
Facing Liu Yanchang, the most powerful Divine Vein Grand Master in the court today, Xu Changying's expression remained unchanged, and he waved his hand to restrain a few juniors, and then said lightly:
"The old man is not worthy, are you Liu Yanchang worthy? My Xu family has been an official for hundreds of generations, after three dynasties, there are dozens of ministers, and the old man ......."
Syllable!
Before he finished speaking, Liu Yanchang had already slapped his backhand and knocked him to the ground:
"It's just a slave with three surnames, and it's worth showing off again and again?"
"You!"
Xu Chong and the three of them changed color.
Liu Yanchang's eyes froze, and an invisible aura had enveloped the entire room, like a mountain, crushing everyone to the ground.
"Poof!"
Xu Changying fell to the ground and rolled three times, knocked over the screen, table and chair, and a mouthful of blood with teeth had already spit out:
"Liu Yanchang, you are just a dog........"
He still wanted to speak, as if the water goose feather knife had fallen directly into his mouth, and he didn't see how to move, and it had been returned to its sheath.
Bang~
It was only then that a severed tongue fell to the ground.
"You probably forgot, isn't it because your Xu family has been able to survive thousands of years?"
Liu Yanchang slowly let go of the scabbard and said slowly:
"I don't want to shake my head now, so I don't have to keep my head."
He glanced lightly at Xu Chong, who was in his aura, and Xu Chong, who was furious, turned around and left:
"Send them to Wangquan Mountain, and let the official see if the scholar opens the mountain to mine, is there any chaos in the world!"
"Yes!"
Outside the door, Wang Gang, who had an honest face, walked in, but there was a trace of drunkenness.
