CHAPTER XXIII
"Bang!"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was already flying high and fell to the ground again. The situation took a turn for the worse, no one thought that things would go so suddenly, following the direction of his fall, Chen Yunmo gently patted his shirt that was not stained with any traces, and looked coldly at the man who fell to the ground: "I'll wait!" ”
"Ahh
The screams rang out suddenly, and I don't know if it was because of pain or annoyance, the screams were barely audible.
I pulled Chen Yunmo and tried to settle the dispute, but I heard the man shouting like a pig: "You dare to hurt me!" Dare to hurt me! I'm going to kill you! ”
I sighed, helplessly looked at the man in front of me, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and just wanted to speak, only to see him rush up with an arrow step, overturning the long dining table, and for a while the soup splashed, the rice bowl flew high, and the ground was a mess.
Almost at the same time, several figures swept up like lightning and rushed towards me and Chen Yunmo.
Chen Yunmo snorted coldly and greeted him, for some reason, I always felt that he was a little excited, the dining hall was in chaos for a moment, the broken dishes and chopsticks and food smashed together with the tables and chairs, I couldn't see how serious the war situation was, I only knew that from today onwards I would be considered famous in the first battle.
In the midst of the chaos, some people shouted: "Report to the head of the hospital, and punish you severely!" ”
Hearing the shout, I continued to sigh helplessly, this time, my brother finally had a reason to pack me home. It has to be said that the belligerent factor flows in the blood of those who can choose military majors. At this moment, the group of spectators had long since joined the battlefield for some reason or when. Maybe it was because a few drops of soup splashed on the robes, or maybe it was someone's screams that made the noise, or maybe a friend of a friend's friend joined the scuffle, anyway, the scale of the war spread rapidly, and the surrounding area was full of shouts and cheers and roaring fights.
"Disrupt the school, gather crowds to fight, good, good, hello!" The steward was helped up from a table of broken porcelain bowls, his face pale.
However, where can we stop it at this moment! It's already a mess!
"Stop!" The sound was not loud, but I was terrified when I listened to it!
Turning around, there were a few people standing at the door at some point, looking at the messy dining hall calmly, the first person in a light purple robe, could it be the second brother, and the snow-blue robe behind him was not Ling Haoxuan?!
I groaned in my heart......
My brother looked at the messy canteen with a gloomy face, glanced at me lightly, and said, "What's the matter?" ”
The steward threw himself over and told him the details with a sad face...... The bloody attitude of the words is agitated, and my brother has been listening to it with a smile, but in my opinion, the smile is not as direct as cleaning me up.
In desperation, I turned my eyes to look at Ling Haoxuan, my face full of grievances and expectations, but I didn't know if he could understand.
He looked at me with a smirk, as if amused by my predicament.
Sure enough, the elder brother took a deep breath and said angrily: "The students of the academy are actually in the noble place of the academy, in full view of everyone, openly making trouble, and the peddlers are like pawns!" Where do you read the sages on weekdays? When did the noise come to this point?! If you don't tell the truth today, you will be severely punished! He glanced at me, and my heart suddenly mentioned, I had seen my brother's plan, and I hung my head helplessly, secretly thinking that I was really unlucky, and I was ready to leave the academy.
"Back at the hospital, we are discussing schoolwork, and we have different opinions, so the argument is not for nothing!" Unexpectedly, at such a time, Qin Zhan was a little anxious and pulled out the banner of discussing schoolwork, so that even if he wanted to be punished, it would not be too heavy.
"Oh?" The second brother laughed angrily, knowing that we were clever and defensive, but he didn't break it, and he was no longer in a hurry to deal with us at the moment, in the mess, he slowly paced in, found a clean table and sat down, only then looked at Qin Zhan with a smile, and said, "I'll listen, what you are discussing, can be noisy like this!" Well said, the past is not to blame, if it is not good, you will roll up and get out of here one by one! ”
Qin Zhan's face changed color instantly, he originally wanted to say a few words casually, not trying to pass the test, as long as he was not kicked out, it was a great luck, after all, this time for the exam, how many children of wealthy families and nobles in Beijing were not selected, and it was an honor for him to be able to successfully enter the school and become the first batch of students of Zhenglin Academy, if he was swept away, it would be a big deal. But now that the head of the hospital is serious, where can he immediately think of any topics that interest the head of the hospital, he has no choice but to be covered with blue and gray, and he can't say why he just stands there stupidly.
"The students were just discussing what it means to be a strong country!" I sighed secretly in my heart, glared at him hatefully, and knew that it was not so easy to pass, but the matter had come to such a field, and I had to accompany him to talk nonsense.
"Oh?" My brother glanced at me and said with a smile, "Tell me about it!" ”
"Yes!" I spoke softly, in a low tone, but the words were clear, "The student believes that the three kingdoms are competing for power today, and the growth and decline of national strength is the foundation of the rise and fall. What does it mean to be a strong country? First, the population is large, the people are prosperous, and agriculture is prosperous. Second, the treasury is full, and the goods and food can withstand the consumption of years of wars and natural disasters and famines. Third, the people and the court are of the same heart, and the whole country is united like an arm. Fourth, the laws and regulations are stable, and there is no turmoil and man-made disasters in the country. Fifth, the armor soldiers are strong and the iron cavalry is excellent. With these five, it can be called a strong country. ”
The elder brother was a little interested: "According to your words, is the current Tianyu a strong country?" ”
I smiled slightly, "The sky under my eyes is one of the five." Years of war, agriculture withered; The treasury is empty, and there is no food for the year; The rule of the people is loose, and the control of the court is weak; Internal law decrees, following the old system; The soldiers of the whole country, less than 500,000, are all hereditary inheritance, and there is no fresh blood. In such a day, there are endless hidden dangers, but if there is a big war, it will be a catastrophe. Does the head of the hospital think so? ”
The second brother frowned slightly and said, "Go on." ”
My expression was solemn, "The way to govern the country is to strengthen the country." There are all kinds of theories, such as kingship, benevolence, and inaction, and several students are arguing about this matter. ”
"Let's talk about it!" When the second brother heard this, his spirit suddenly perked up, his eyes were blazing, and he looked around.
"Students believe that the way to strengthen the country should first be the way of military armor, so that they can be invincible and prevent future troubles." Qin Zhan was indeed a little clever, he had already thought about these questions, and replied without the slightest hesitation.
"Students believe that the strong rule of the Ming monarch is the way to strengthen the country, the rule of the officials is clear, the implementation of the dynasty is safe, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country is naturally peaceful and peaceful." Cai Qiyan was not slow to react, and immediately continued.
"Students believe that the way to strengthen the country is first and foremost to reach the people, and only this way can dominate the world!" Chen Yunmo was not to be outdone.
"What do you think?" The second brother looked around, didn't say right or wrong, and turned to look at me.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "The students think that the vast land is not enough to be strong; Strong armor is not enough to win; The high city and deep pond are not enough to solidify; Strict punishment is not enough to determine. For those who survive, although they are small, they must survive; For those who die in government, although they are great, they will perish. ”
The second brother was a little surprised, but he turned to think that I had been studying with Mrs. He all day in Taixue, and he naturally saw extraordinary knowledge, and he sincerely sighed, and he couldn't wait to stuff me back to Taixue immediately, "You can tell me carefully." ”
"The fundamental weakness of the first three paradigms of strong countries is that they are only strong for a while, not forever, and only strong on the surface, not fundamentally. The students believe that if the following aspects are achieved, Tianyu will strengthen the country and enrich the people. One of them established the decree of abandoning well fields, opening up fields, and buying and selling fields. The second is to abandon the old tax system in which there is no fixed amount of tribute, and make the new law of paying taxes according to the acres of land, the work according to the workshop, and the business according to the transaction. In this way, the country will be rich and the people will be strong. The three who are beheaded in the battle array will be knighted by the number of heads beheaded. So that the people are all proud of serving in the army to kill the enemy, the whole country is a soldier, the soldiers are brave, the disabled are worry-free, why is there no victory? Fourth, it restricts the number of officials at all levels and their governing powers, and puts an end to government affairs going out of private affairs. Students believe that no matter what kind of national policy, the laws and regulations are unstable, and there is no iron law that a country should abide by for a long time. The previous generation was formulated, the future generations were restored, and the foundation was unstable, and it was bound to rise and die. With this shortcoming, how can it be stronger than eternity? How can it be a great cause for a thousand years? Only in this way, students think that in order to be strong, they must be fundamentally strong! ”
The second brother was strongly shocked by this theory! He didn't even bother to punish us, and looked straight at me in deep thought.
"Ahem!"
The voice was very soft, but there was a moment of silence, and I saw Ling Haoxuan's right hand clenched weakly, blocking his lips, and his eyes shimmered. Then, I saw that my brother was suddenly awakened, and the words that had already come to his lips were suddenly changed to: "Although you are fighting for schoolwork this time, you are making a big fuss in the academy, this wind cannot be promoted, the capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, from now on, you will all close the door to me and think about it!" You are not allowed to go out for three days, and if you violate it again, you will be expelled from the college! ”
I breathed a long sigh of relief, knowing that this catastrophe had finally passed, and the moment I was taken away, I looked back and saw Ling Haoxuan standing with his hands in his hands, his eyes soaked in a smile.
