In Surabaya County, Pei County, and in the school, twenty-three seven or eight-year-old teenagers read aloud with books bound with thread in their hands: "Zi said, when you learn and learn it, don't you also say it! Some friends come from afar, and they are happy? People don't know and are not ashamed, and they are not gentlemen?"

Old Master Li, who was standing on the stage, looked at the young man's serious and eager for knowledge, his face was gratified, and he couldn't help but pat the ring ruler to make peace with him.

This is the twenty-fifth year that Mr. Li has led the students, watching the students grow up, thinking about the peach and plum all over the world described by Confucianism, Mr. Li feels that life is very satisfying.

"I want to teach my students until I am old and I can't teach anymore, and then I will go home to care for the elderly. ”

Old Master Li thought so.

A loud "bang" woke up Old Master Li from his fantasy, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that the door of the school was violently broken open by five or six officials.

Seeing this, Old Master Li was furious, and said angrily: "Who are you waiting for, who dares to be presumptuous in the school? Aren't you afraid that the old man will make a statement to Lu County and cure your crimes?"

The first official snorted coldly and said, "Old Zamao, do you think that if you move out of Lord Lu's name, you will be able to have something to do with your lord?" The brothers are under the order of Lord Lu, and from today onwards, all schools in the county will be closed and all masters will be arrested. ”

"Brothers, drive this group of dolls home, and take this old immortal to prison, and the credit will be in hand, up. ”

When the other five officials heard this, they held the unsheathed knives in their hands, and while slapping the tables and chairs, they shouted: "Go, little rabbit, go home to your mother." ”

These teenagers were only seven or eight years old, and they had never seen such a battle, one by one they dropped their books, cried and shouted, and shouted in a ball.

Old Master Li saw that his heart was aching, how could he care about his old age and frailty, took the ring ruler, and smashed his head and face at the nearest official.

Unexpectedly, Old Master Li dared to hit someone, and the official was repeatedly whipped two big ear scrapers.

The official who reacted became angry, directly drew a knife, slashed at Old Master Li, and scolded: "Old Zamao, dare to beat people?

Seeing that the officer's knife was about to cut at Old Master Li, he was stopped by the fast-eyed officer.

The servant, whose face was marked with a red mark, was stunned and said, "Head, why are you stopping me?"

The chief official patted him on the shoulder, and said with a wry smile: "A bad old man, as long as he is arrested in prison, he will have to go to at least half his life, so why should you have trouble with him." ”

The beaten official was anxious: "But ......"

The chief official hurriedly pulled the beaten official aside, and said in a low voice: "Don't do it, this time it was ordered by the imperial court to close all the schools opened by Confucianism and arrest Confucian disciples.

Seeing that he was still puzzled by the beatings, the chief servant had to remind: "This old man once taught Lord Lu to read, and Lord Lu himself is close to Confucianism, but the court gave an order and had to obey." ”

"But if you let Lord Lu know that you killed this old man Li, will you have a good life in the future?

After being beaten, he was afraid, his back was wet with cold sweat, and he said again and again: "Thank you for reminding me, my little brother almost caused trouble without knowing it." ”

The chief official waved his hand and said, "It's okay, brothers, can I watch you get into trouble?"

Seeing that all the young men were kicked out of the school, the chief official shouted: "Brothers, seal the gate and take the old man back to his life." ”

In addition to being beaten by the officials, the other four people were divided into two waves, and two of them danced with their hands left and right, delusionally trying to kill the old man, lest he do anything bad.

The two found a few wooden bolts, nailed the broken door of the school, and affixed a seal.

Then the chief official waved his hand, took the people, and walked away.

Only then did the onlookers approach, looking at the crying teenager, and there was a lot of discussion.

......

Let the old master Li be sent to the prison, and the chief official walked into the Peixian county office, and saluted the middle-aged official sitting in the lobby: "Lord Qiyu, my subordinates have sealed the school in Confucius Lane in the west of the city, and I am here to restore my life." ”

The middle-aged official, the commander of Lu County of Yipei County, heard that a trace of unbearability flashed on his face, and replied with a straight face: "Continue to seal down other Confucian schools, and you must not be lazy." ”

The chief official bowed and saluted: "The subordinates obey the order." ”

After the official left, Lu Xian Ling said to the warrior in a black suit on the side, "Have you ever been satisfied?"

Hearing this, the black-clothed warrior bowed down and said, "It's just a small banner of the black-clothed guard, and you can't be so honored by the county commander." ”

"Besides, it's all for Your Majesty, how can you be satisfied or dissatisfied?"

Lu Xian Ling said with a smile on his face: "Your Excellency is on an errand on the orders of His Majesty, but it is really a Qin errand, and his status is naturally higher than that of the lower officials. I wonder what your lordship will tell you next?"

The black-clothed guard Xiaoqi smiled when he heard this, and did not continue to dwell on the title, but said: "Lord Lu is very efficient, and he will report it to the next meeting, and now the school in Pei County is also closed, and the people who are still arrested have also been arrested, and the adults need to send the suspect to the Surabaya camp as soon as possible, so as not to be robbed by the chaotic party." ”

"The Surabaya camp has 10,000 troops, all of whom are elite Janissaries, and guarding suspects is never a problem. This time, His Majesty specially dispatched 100,000 Praetorian Guards, and he will definitely be able to wipe out the chaotic party. ”

Lu Xianling's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Xiaguan, let people escort the suspect over." ”

......

In the camp of Surabaya, the flag of the word "forbidden" is flying in the wind.

Lin Ze sat in the tent, looking at the map expressionlessly, thoughtfully.

Three days ago, Lin Ze went to Chang'an to return to Emperor Qin, and the southern Buddhist temple was leveled.

Emperor Qin encouraged him a few words, rewarded two eight-grade treasures, and sent him to the land of Kanto to preside over the extermination of Confucianism.

The time limit given by the Qin Emperor is one month, and if you succeed, you will live, and if you don't succeed, you will die, and the completion standard is that Confucianism has lost its momentum and is powerless to cause trouble in the world.

The best way is for Lin Ze to kill all the Confucian disciples, and naturally no one can cause trouble in the world.

But Confucianism is not as good as Buddhism, there are Buddhist temples everywhere, and Confucianism only has schools.

The master in the school may be a Confucian, but he is not the object that Lin Ze wants to exterminate.

Nest in one place all your life and teach honestly, how can you have the ability to cause trouble in the world?

The ones who can really cause trouble in the world are those Confucian students who travel around to study and give lectures on reactionary ideas at every turn.

This kind of person is very keen, either hiding in the city, hiding at home and not showing up, or hiding in the wilderness and hiding in the deep mountains and old forests.

If you want to exterminate, how can it be so easy?

The pressure of Emperor Qin was there, even though Lin Ze seemed that Emperor Qin would not kill him, but this kind of thing could not be gambled with his life.

After thinking about it, Lin Ze had no choice but to attack the schools in various places and catch more people to lure the snake out of the hole.

A Praetorian Guard commander stepped into Lin Ze's tent, bowed down and said: "Qi Shu Hou, the local government has cooperated with the black-clothed guards to arrest more than 8,000 Confucian students, please ask Shu Hou for instructions." ”

Lin Ze raised his head slightly and said: "Well, the action to arrest Confucianism continues, and then send someone to post an announcement, just say that someone in Confucianism intends to rebel, Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous, and I wanted to only kill the first evil." ”

"Who expected the first evil to abscond and refused to return to the case, Ben Hou was forced to have no choice but to ask for Confucian life and pursue the first evil. ”

"I also hope that the Confucian Confucianism will contact Benhou as soon as possible and jointly find out the traitorous party, otherwise once His Majesty is angry, he will issue an order to punish Confucianism, and it will be too late to regret it. ”

"Ben Hou guarantees the credibility of the Qin State, if there is a great Confucian willing to enter the camp in Surabaya at the expense of himself, ten innocent Confucian students will be released immediately, and if the rebel party is ambushed, Ben Hou will release all Confucian students. ”

"I also hope that Confucianism will think of the common people, the family and the country, and cooperate with the Hou to arrest the traitorous party. ”

The commander of the Praetorian Guard took a deep look at Lin Ze and took the order.

This Marquis of Shu is really as rumored by the outside world, his heart is black.

Lin Ze naturally didn't know what others were saying about him, and sighed slightly: "The bait is released, but I don't know if there are any fish on the bait." ”

Then Lin Ze was a little relieved, if Confucianism did not react, and the reputation was estimated to be stinky, the task assigned by Emperor Qin would be completed in a certain way.

It's just that in this way, it can be regarded as a mistaken offense by Confucianism.
