"Do you know about Kuniko's studies?" When he asked this, Wu Bozong's voice trembled a little, and it was difficult to hide the fear that came out of the depths of his soul.

"I've heard of it." Zeng Tai nodded and said, "When I came, I passed by the Confucius Temple, and I also saw the things on those bamboo poles." ”

"There are Wang Jiahui, Chen Qianfu, and a famous Confucian in Jiangnan, everyone in the literary world, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is half of the Jiangnan literary world." Wu Bozong said sadly: "When you pass by the Ministry of Officials another day, you will see that there is still the head of Yu Xi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials!" Horror, right? ”

"It's terrifying." Zeng Tai nodded.

"This is all done by His Royal Highness the King of Chu that you are full of praise." Wu Zhuangyuan's breathing was a little short, and he said: "They just wanted to administer justice to the students, and they tortured and killed them all in a joint bullet stamp, you say, is this still a human being?!" ”

"How did I hear that they also instigated the students to go on strike?" Zeng Tai frowned.

"That was spontaneous by all beings in order to support the teacher!" Wu Zhuangyuan raised his voice and said: "He killed them, and he also insulted their corpses and slandered their reputation!" Crazy to the extreme! ”

"But in my impression, His Royal Highness the King of Chu never kills." But Zeng Tai has been a feudal official for a year, which is not so easy to fool.

"There is no habit of torture and killing. If you want to talk about His Royal Highness King Yan, I think it's still a little possible. But King Chu, you can't do such a thing, right? ”

"How can you speak for him?!" Wu Bozong couldn't help but scolded: "He is already the public enemy of the world's scholars, and all scholars with a conscience will be inseparable from him!" ”

"You can't say that." Zeng Gangjing was a little displeased:

"I also taught at Guozi School for two years, and Song Ne hadn't gone at that time. There is a miasma of smoke and smoke by the southerners, and they join forces to crowd out the instructors in the north, not to mention the students...... Nine out of ten students who are dropped out of school every year are from the north. So I don't dare to say it elsewhere, the scholars in the north will definitely support him. ”

"You're also a southerner, so you have to figure out where you stand." Wu Bozong couldn't help but say angrily.

"I'm an official of the Ming Dynasty." Being a high-ranking official is different, Zeng Tai raised his voice and said: "They all belong to the same Huaxia and are the same people of the Ming Dynasty." Why is there a division between north and south? So what is the significance of the unification of the Ming Dynasty? ”

"The north has been under the rule of Hu Lu for hundreds of years, and it is no different from the barbarians." Wu Bozong said in a sullen voice.

"Okay, then you can revoke the title of Yan Sheng Gong tomorrow!" Zeng Tai can always find a tricky angle to make a bar. "The Kong family is also a barbarian now, what qualifications do they have to be the Holy Father of Yan again?!"

"You, don't you lift the bar......" Wu Bozong almost choked to death. How could they Confucianists smash the job of Yan Shenggong? Isn't that a deception to the teacher and the ancestor?

"I'm really not raising the bar," Zeng Tai said in a deep voice: "But I really think that Brother Bozong, as a horse wash in the East Palace, should jump out of the trap of the north and the south and think about the problem from the position of the entire Ming Dynasty." ”

"Hehehe, teachable." Wu Bozongpi nodded with a smile and said, "It's really three days, you should be impressed." Brother Anding is now in a big swing. ”

"It was His Royal Highness the King of Chu who taught me." Zeng Tai sighed: "If the country wants long-term peace and stability, it should bridge the contradictions, not artificially create a gap." ”

"Hahaha, it's okay for you to think like this, gentlemen are harmonious but different." Wu Bozong hated to death in his heart, and he had to smile on his face.

~~

The so-called 'words are not speculative for more than half a sentence', the two did not expect to see each other for a year, and now the difference in concept is so big.

So the planned all-night long talk ended hastily with 'Brother Settle down on a tiring journey and rest early'.

Lying in the guest room of the Zhuangyuan Mansion, Zeng Taidu regretted that it was too hasty to agree to live in Wu Bozong's house.

"Alas, I knew that it would be better to go to sleep with Mr. Luo, at least he spoke nicely and could still be seen." Zeng Tai sighed secretly, and thought of having to face the saint today, and he tossed and turned more and more, and it was difficult to sleep.

Fortunately, he didn't finish the formalities, and he wasn't a Beijing official, so he didn't have to go to the morning court, otherwise he wouldn't have to sleep.

He didn't stare for a while until dawn, and was soon woken up by the little maid, and hurriedly washed and dressed.

At this time, Wu Bozong had already gone to the court, he hastily had breakfast, and then walked to the palace in a car.

As soon as he left the Zhuangyuan Mansion, he breathed a sigh of relief and instructed the little servant: "Later, I will go to Zhongshu to report after I meet the saint, and as soon as the official party is arranged, you will come back to pick up your luggage." ”

The Tao is different, and I don't want to stay for a moment.

~~

He walked all the way along Taipingli, but saw that the street was bustling, the shops were lined up one after another, and all kinds of signboards and banners were dazzling.

Zeng Tai couldn't help but sigh secretly, it has only been a few years, and Nanjing City has prospered a lot.

It's just that there are also disadvantages, there are too many pedestrians on the street, shoulder to shoulder, no one notices him, a second-class master, and almost squeezes his black gauze hat off.

Zeng Tai secretly complained, he knew that he should have listened to the arrangement of the Wu family and went by carriage. This is good, what kind of system is it?

Fortunately, after crossing the Dazhong Bridge and walking on West Chang'an Street, it was not so crowded all of a sudden.

First, West Chang'an Avenue is very wide, and second, there are yamen on both sides of the street, and no stalls are allowed to open shops, so there are naturally fewer pedestrians.

Zeng Tai tidied up his clothes at this time, and smiled bitterly at the little guy: "Don't look at the difference between this Nanjing and our Nanchang, it's just different." I can't stand walking. ”

"That's for sure." The little guy laughed in response.

"Alas, three years ago, I didn't squeeze around the crowd every day, walking to and from work? Now that I've become a second-class master, I can't stand it? It really shouldn't. "No one raised the bar, Zeng Tai even barred himself.

While the master and servant were talking, they saw a group of dwarfs coming from the Wuman Bridge on the left side of the road.

Well, it's rude to say that, I should say that I am a short child-like outsider.

This scene is not unusual, because in the north of Wuman Bridge, there is a hall to receive foreign envoys, as well as a Wuman post to receive his entourage. Therefore, foreign envoys often haunt here.

Zeng Tai has seen the world, so naturally he will not make a fuss...... But seeing that they are wearing official robes similar to Daming, just like children stealing adults' clothes, it's really funny, hehehe.

He hurriedly tightened his face so as not to damage his official body. But the envoys of the Lilliputian Kingdom actually went the same way with him...... All the way along West Chang'an Street, into the right gate of Chang'an, and then Chengtian Gate, Duanmen.

Watching them look up and talk to the tall officers and soldiers guarding the gate is really hard to sigh.

Fortunately, Zeng Tai is professionally trained and can still hold on. But the next moment, he couldn't hold back at all - I saw that those Lilliputian officials actually went straight to the Dengwen drum outside the noon gate!

I saw the leader of the official jump up, take off the drumstick hanging next to the drum, and be about to beat the drum!

But someone grabbed the drumstick......

"Don't mess around, it's not something you can knock!"
