At 9:47 a.m., Wren's carriage slowly approached the old library, and the crisp sound of the bell neutralized the solemnity of the carriage itself, and together with the sound of the horses' hooves, it formed a relaxed and bright music. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The crowd of people in front of him almost encroached on the entire road, and Blair frowned, "My lord, the road ahead is blocked. ”。 He took the reins to slow down the carriage, and through the sound hole behind the coachman's seat, he reported the situation on the road to Wren, who was sitting in the carriage, and Wren answered softly.

Wren asked, "Who are they?"

"Some people in scholar's robes, some bachelors, they blocked the door of the old library. ”

In fact, without Blair's elaboration, Wren also noticed that the noise gradually became clearer, and he pulled the window of the car, allowing the sound from outside the carriage to pour in.

"Hand over the murderer!"

"Severely punish the executioners who trample on the dignity of the law and scholars!"

"The nobles who use their power for personal gain get out of the imperial capital!"

The arrest of Colin and others frightened the self-proclaimed truth-seeking scholars to some extent, but they soon grew anger from fear. Fear is more likely to be "extreme" than other emotions in many cases, and coupled with the peculiarity of the group of bachelors, a group of self-proclaimed righteous guys soon gathered together to demonstrate in front of the old library. This must be the result of someone pushing the heart, but on the other hand, Wren needs them to do the same.

If you want to stand up and speak out about your interests and get the attention of others, it is absolutely not enough to just rely on lobbying, and you have to show your muscles when necessary. People will never be afraid of docile animals, even if they show their fangs, and in people's perceptions, meekness means harmlessness, even if they have sharp teeth. In the same way, animals that are full of threats to people, even if they do not grin and show their sharp claws, people will fear them.

Rennes's Ministry of State Security wants to fire the first shot, not that it can be done by arresting a few nobles, this must have a complete routine, step by step to pull the vast majority of people into this whirlpool, let them experience the horror of the Ministry of State Security, they will face Wren and his interests.

The first step is to start with these people.

It seemed that the stopped carriage had attracted the attention of some people, or some scholars who were constantly paying attention to their surroundings and were still waving their fists and shouting and invective in open their voices, immediately looked at Wren's carriage. Black and gold give the carriage a mysterious and noble atmosphere, and the wreath of thorns silently proclaims its status and power to all sides.

This is the carriage that belongs to Wren, the carriage that belongs to the golden aristocracy.

The enraged scholars ran over and surrounded the carriages, shouting loudly for their opinions and positions, but also with the same demand, that is, to let Wren "get out" and accept a righteous judgment.

In the distance, two people stood on the corner of the street, smiling at what was happening here, their eyes full of pride. This department of the Ministry of State Security has attracted the attention of many forces, especially the top forces who dare not underestimate this department. The more top-level forces are, the more sensitive they are to political turmoil, and they are very keenly aware that when there is still Empress Pars behind the listing of the Ministry of State Security, every force does not dare to take it lightly.

The Orlando family has not set off a political storm once or twice, and perhaps this political storm will start in this small, once inconspicuous department. When these people began to trace the predecessor of the Ministry of State Security, they all inexplicably felt a cold wind.

The Archives Department, no one takes this department seriously, they call the Archives Department a fish pond, and Bethel is the biggest fish, followed by countless waste fish. They are never taken seriously, and they are like air in the imperial capital, without any sense of existence. Work that is not valued by people has suddenly become a deadly noose. Aristocrats always have to make some mistakes and then smooth them out with privilege, and in many cases these mistakes are not worth mentioning, and they are not even as powerful as a small grass on the side of the road to impact the world. However, when the Ministry of State Security was established, these stains were like handles in the hands of Wren and Empress Pars, and no one knew what they would do and when they would be rectified.

A lot of people are now desperate to see Rennes unable to sustain the situation before they have a chance to turn the tables in this round of the meeting.

In the face of these scholars and scholars who could be manipulated, Wren showed no mercy. Since ancient times, Confucianism has been chaotic with the law, and this group of guys who think they are superior always put themselves on the moral high ground, thinking that only they are right. Whether it's another world or this world, knowledge can not only change fate, but also make people conceited. Connecting oneself to authority can only obscure one's own eyes and not see clearly what is close at hand.

The crowded scholars faced the indifferent Wren, and a wave of anger burst out in their chests, and they didn't know who pushed Wren's carriage first. He may simply think that as a scholar, he has knowledge that others can't, and that he can not flinch in the face of the powerful. But his actions lit a fire among the people, and a second man began to push the carriage. This action quickly infects other people, and the emotional crowd is most afraid of a person with a rhythm, and once the rhythm is brought up, someone will immediately follow.

Bethel was stunned for a moment on the second floor of the old library in the distance, and immediately picked up the staff of civilization hanging on the hanger, but his movements suddenly paused, and he took his hand back again. After a moment's silence, he smiled and shook his head, and sat back down.

Most of the people in the Department of National Security are now on Wren's side, including him Bethel. Wren brought about a change, not only in their awkward status now, but also in their future. These people, who have not been taken seriously since they came to the Archives Department, have become fragrant and sweet overnight, and attention brings self-esteem and makes them feel the dignity they have lost for a long time. They rightfully stood with Wren and defended each other's interests.

There was no need for Bethel to instigate, and more than a dozen people rushed out at once, all of whom were from Ortlenburg. Immediately after that, more than a dozen staff members belonging to the old archives department in the old library rushed out, and they rushed towards the scholars who were desperately shaking the carriage with sticks in their hands.

Blair is a Khan, this is not Ortlenburg, this is the imperial capital, the center of national politics and culture, he naturally does not dare to act as brutally as before. He hurriedly got out of the carriage and guarded the door, and in the face of the crowd of people who kept pushing and crowding, he asked a little embarrassed: "My lord, what now? Do you want me to escort you away?"

"Leave?", Wren laughed contemptuously, staring coldly at the scholars outside the carriage who kept pushing the carriage and making the carriage start to sway from side to side, "Blair, what is the crime of attacking the golden nobles?"

Wren's voice was not small, and in addition to Blair, some scholars next to him also heard it. Some of them visibly stopped and took a step back, the look of fear on their faces flickering. They are scholars, so they know more than anyone else, and in the Orlando Empire, the crime of attacking the golden aristocracy is equal to the crime of attacking the royal family, and they can be killed on the spot if necessary, and they don't even need to report to the criminal department.

If you die, you will die in vain.

Blair was stunned, one hand unconsciously pressed on the hilt of the sword, the fingers that clutched the hilt of the sword turned white from excessive force, he didn't know if Wren really wanted to kill these scholars, but he knew that if it was, maybe it would be a big trouble. But he had to answer, "My lord, the impact on the golden aristocracy is described as rebellion, and the sin is unforgivable." ”

Wren chuckled, raised his eyes and glanced at Blair, and was about to speak, his lips moved, but there were screams and cries of pain from outside the crowd, as well as some shouting and killing. These voices interrupted Wren's words and drew some of his attention.

The men who did it came from Ortlenburg, and this part was only the vanguard, and the others would enter the imperial capital in batches and in fits and starts, and become clerks of certain departments, or servants of the estates. They will become Wren's private army, hidden in a special way.

These scholars, dressed in scholar's robes, with the third virtue of Lao Tzu in the world, retreated in pain, cursing the atrocities of the atrocities inflicted on them, and also cursing the cruelty and cold-bloodedness of Wren, and his desecration of knowledge and truth.

When the group of scholars were kicked aside from the side of the carriage with sticks, the scene finally calmed down a bit.

The carriage door slowly opened, and Wren stepped down with the handrail. He changed into a pure white formal suit today, with a white shirt, white pants, and a white top hat, which made him look more bookish and bookish, and less of the cold feeling unique to aristocrats. He raised his eyes and swept the angry crowd, in the face of those who chose to devour people, Wren showed considerable disdain, he raised his eyebrows, and sneered, "You are all scholars, but you are also the stupidest people. I've been in Ortrenburg, what you call the countryside, for more than a year......"

There was no tension in his flat gaze at all, it was like a speech, a casual walk, and he didn't take this group of scholars in his eyes at all, even if the other party knew more than the people on his side.

"Even the ignorant farmer in the countryside who you think is uneducated will put himself in a vantage point before arguing with others. Wren's voice was steady and slightly low, which also attracted the attention of scholars, "You have no reason to use violence against state organs, use force to attack the carriage of the golden nobles, and also want to use the trend of mass demonstrations to influence the justice of the law." ”

Wren laughed sneeringly, "You people are worthy of being called scholars, I think, you are not even as good as farmers, are you?"

His words made some people fall into deep thought, and it was not that no news came out after Colin was arrested, at least he slandered and desecrated the dignity of the royal family, and he also made a deal with the nobles for economic gain, and advocated for the nobles.

Some people despise what Colin did, while others know that this is the path that the Bachelors will take after they become famous. The light on the powerful and the slow princely are just ideals, the motivation to motivate scholars to move towards higher scholars, scholars, and saints, and they cannot be taken seriously.

But there are also some people who believe that the crimes that Colin confessed to are all crimes that were placed after being tortured to extract confessions, and are not necessarily true.

Moreover, even if it is true, isn't this the exclusive privilege of scholars? Isn't attacking the royal family and praising and belittling current affairs precisely the privilege of scholars to demonstrate their own existence and value?

Their anger, perhaps, really was for Colin.

Or, for one's own sake and one's rights.

Wren glanced at the silent scholars, fearless of the fierce gaze, he shook his head slightly, just a bunch of cannon fodder. He turned around and raised his foot, and was just about to take a step when a question came from behind him, "Mr. Wren, what you said is your side of the story, we can't trust you, unless you let Master Colin come out and confront each other personally, we will believe that all this is a misunderstanding!"

Wren's raised foot slowly fell, startling the dust at his feet, he turned around and looked at the scholars with deep eyes, "Those who just spoke, please stand up and stand in front of me." I very much agree with your proposal, but you have to show your attitude, come, stand in front of me, don't hide in the crowd. ”

The scholars looked at a man in the crowd who looked to be in his thirties and dressed in a scholar's robe. The man was inexplicably dazed, his face was slightly pale, the panic in the depths of his eyes flashed away, he squeezed out a dry smile, and reluctantly walked out under the gaze of the people, standing in front of Wren.

"I repeat, I just want to be acknowledged by Master Colin himself, I don't mean anything else, I hope you don't get me wrong. He bowed his head slightly, and his attitude flinched.

Wren pursed his lips and nodded, "Misunderstanding, plus what I said, in just a short period of time, there were three misunderstandings. He looked at the man, "I'm sorry I didn't ask for your name?"

"Not worth mentioning...... The scholar waved his hand repeatedly, unwilling to reveal his name. At this time, there are so many scholars behind him, and some of them know him, if he lies, it will naturally be exposed. But to tell the truth, he was afraid of Wren's revenge, so he might as well simply stop talking about it.

"Very well, unnamed sir, are you familiar with the Imperial Codex?"

"Yes, I am familiar with the Imperial Codex. ”

Wren smiled, "I would like to ask this scholar who does not want to be named, what is the crime of attacking the gold nobles, and what kind of punishment will be imposed?"
