Chapter 661: Reaction (2)
Guo Rong pondered for a moment and replied: "The child can't see through him, Li Fengyun doesn't seem to have any ambitions, but is a bit like Luo Yi back then (Note 1). β
"Hmph! The last general doesn't think so, Li Fengyun's ambition is only not small. Zhao Kuangyi said, "The Son of Heaven and scholars rule the world together, which is the right way, and Li Fengyun suddenly put forward the 'theory of equality' simply to be opportunistic." He knew that there would not be many people in the gentry and aristocracy who supported him, so he simply put aside the gentry and aristocrats and was bent on currying favor with the peasants and merchants, and even those untouchables, in order to win their support. β
Guo Wei looked at Zhao Kuangyin again, Zhao Kuangyin also shook his head, and replied: "The last general can't see clearly, saying that Li Fengyun is dishonoring his name, and the last general doesn't believe it, according to the last general's understanding of him, he is not that kind of person at all." Li Fengyun is clever and cunning, and he is quick-witted, it is difficult to say what plans he is hiding.
However, there is one point, the last general believes that Li Fengyun is not enough to poison the world. β
"Luo Yi?" Guo Wei turned his head to look at the far north and sighed, "Luo Yi has made great contributions to the Central Plains, but unfortunately he can't keep his heart after all, and he can't die well!"
After more than a year of recuperation and recuperation from the war, coupled with the extremely low taxes collected by the Yiwu Army, and did not exploit the locality, Dingzhou gradually regained some vitality, although it was far less prosperous than when the Khitans did not invade the Central Plains a few years ago, and the population in the city was also gone, but it gradually gathered some popularity.
Among the ruins of the city's war-torn houses, people have begun to clear the ruins, trying to find something that can still be used and build new straw huts.
Especially in the past month or so, as the rumors of the upcoming Lingering Garden Feast have spread more and more widely, more and more people have come from all over the country, just waiting for the day when the Lingering Garden Feast is held, or the general Li who does not know the height of the sky and the earth and does not know the skills of the world, refutes it to the ground, even if he is cut off because of this, he can become famous in one fell swoop, and he will be famous in history.
Even if you don't have the qualifications and can't enter the Lingering Garden, such a rare event in the troubled times, if you don't come to join in the fun, wouldn't it be a pity for life?
Moreover, the Fengyun Dart Bureau also issued a message, as long as they participate in the feast in the Lingering Garden, if they come to the branch dart bureau of the Fengyun Dart Bureau, the Fengyun Dart Bureau will escort them to Dingzhou for free to ensure the safety of all the scholars. Food and lodging were also provided along the way, which inspired the determination of many scholars to eliminate demons.
The Fengyun Dart Bureau is famous in the rivers and lakes, who doesn't know, behind the Fengyun Dart Bureau is Fengyun Wei. Although there are as many thieves as locusts along the way, who dares to provoke the Fengyun Dart Bureau, Fengyunwei is an iron army that even the Liaoguo Iron Cavalry is afraid to hear.
Li Fengyun is even more amazing, although his brain is confused, but he is a good hand in war, and his martial arts are high, he is the number one master in the world, he is omnipotent, and his strength is infinite.
It is said that he is more than one zhang eight feet tall, and his body width is also one zhang eight feet, holding two magic knives, one weighing 7,200 catties and the other weighing 3,600 catties. The eyes are as big as brass bells, and they can swallow a pig in one bite. A loud roar can shatter the three souls and six spirits of the opponent. There is even a secret that Li Fengyun has to eat a cow for a meal, and he has to even the ten royal daughters to sleep at night.
Who would dare to offend such a person, those little thieves, and not want to die? Only these scholars, who have a mighty and righteous heart, dare to reprimand him to his face regardless of life and death.
Moreover, all those rough men in the Fengyun Dart Bureau are fools, as long as they say that they are going to participate in the feast in the Lingering Garden, they believe that one person will issue a pamphlet of "The Theory of Equality", and as long as there are enough people, they will set off immediately. Even some profit-hungry business travelers actually pretended to be participating in the feast in the Lingering Garden, obviously carrying a whole vehicle of private goods to Dingzhou, and those fools from the Fengyun Dart Bureau actually believed it, and they were also arranged with Shizi and escorted to Dingzhou for free.
How can the merchants be on an equal footing with the gentry? How can such a lofty thing as the Lingering Garden Feast allow these copper-smelling merchants to participate, it is simply insulting.
So there was a lot of noise along the way, and of course the merchant couldn't argue with him, but he would only flip through the booklet, find a few words from it, and say it again and again, and he was tired of listening to it.
The most infuriating thing is that the dart master doesn't care at all, as long as he doesn't fight, even if it is noisy, they don't pay attention to it. If you really want to fight, the frail gentleman may not be the opponent of those fierce businessmen who go south and north.
"Shame, shame! Shame on my generation, along the way, actually with these villains. A group of scholars who came to Dingzhou gathered in the newly built simple tea shed in Dingzhou City, and scolded the Fengyun Dart Bureau, "Wait until the day when the feast in the Lingering Garden begins, and I can't see how to show my might and refute those ridiculous theories!"
"Brother Liu is one of the three great talents in Weizhou, and he will definitely win, Wu should shout for Brother Liu!" a thin-eyed scholar shook his head and praised.
"However, there seems to be some truth in what is said in the "Theory of Equality"?" A faint, discordant voice was particularly awkward and out of place in the midst of many rhetoric, like a rat poop in a pot of porridge, an ugly duckling in a group of cranes, unbearable for uncles and unbearable for aunts.
"Cheng Lin, how can you make such a rebellious statement? Are you still a protΓ©gΓ© of a saint?" Someone immediately jumped out and reprimanded loudly.
"Cheng Lin, in vain, I will treat you as a fellow person, it turns out that you are such a person, and I, Xu Mao, want to cut off my robe with you!"
"Brother Cheng, you are confused in your reading, the so-called three religions and nine streams, monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, each in their own place, if they are all equal, then the world will not be in chaos?"
"I ...... I...... I just said that there are some merits in the "Theory of Equality". β
"It's nothing? Fallacious reasoning and heresy, you actually say that there is merit? Where is your position? I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that I regarded you as a fellow believer, but who knew that you were a big bad wolf in sheep's clothing. β
......
There was a sudden noise in the teahouse, and the sound of abuse continued.
"Labor, labor, everyone, two pots of tea, a plate of salted beans, a total of ten cents. Xiao Er, who was running around like a little bee, finally couldn't help it and ran over, interrupting everyone's quarrel.
The ladies looked at each other, and one of them couldn't help but say, "We haven't said we want to settle the bill yet?"
"But, you've already added water eight times, and the customers in the shop have been scared away by you!, what are we eating?" Xiao Er puffed up his chest, stuck his waist, and said confidently, "Besides, you scholars are all superior, why are we being called by you to drink and serve you? Could it be that I was born cheap, and I begged to be a slave for you?"
......
This kind of thing happens everywhere in Dingzhou City.
