Wings of Hung Chien - Chapter 27

Early the next morning, Bai Yi carefully instructed Si Hong Cang Yuntian, and they still went.

Si Hongcang, Lu Jiaxin and his group came to the mansion, but saw that the battle in the lobby was not the same day by day,

In addition to the prefect of Han sitting high in the hall, there are two other middle-aged officials in robes sitting on the upper right side, looking like a hearing. Both sides of the hall. There were many young girls and scholars, as well as middle-aged scribes and Confucian scholars. Han Yu and Ji Ruji are in it, standing on the left.

Lu Jiaqin was still kneeling in the middle.

When she saw them, she smiled and greeted them with joy.

Si Hongcang also smiled at her, gave her a comforting look, walked side by side with Yun Tian into the lobby, stopped in the center, and first knelt down to meet Han Zhifu.

The officials who have never seen Si Hongcang, Bai Yi, Yuntian, etc., except for the prefect Han and the governor Ji, who knows Si Hongcang, she and the scholars are amazed! Although these people are good-looking, apart from the Lu family sisters who are wearing brocade clothes, the other three women and girls standing beside the Lu family sisters are dressed in short clothes in commoner clothes, obviously they are small country girls. Why did you put it in?

The prefect of Han stood up and bowed to the two officials on his right hand, “Master Governor, Master Censor, this is a fellow villager of Lu Jiaqin, please excuse her for her crime. Therefore, I am allowed to enter.”

An official in his thirties nodded slightly and nodded, “In that case, just wait.”

Si Hongcang immediately said, “Thank you, my lords!”

Then he led Yun Tian back to stand behind Lu Jiaqin.

The scholars all looked at them attentively, but their attention was quickly diverted. Because the prefect of Han slapped the gavel, the court trial began.

Today’s trial is different from the past, it’s like a college debate.

It turns out that there is a lot of reason behind this case.

On that day, Governor Ji read Lu Jiaqin’s article and felt that his literary style was good and his insights were remarkable. However, she thought of the complicated situation in the DPRK and the fact that the current sage is extremely evil in the Xiyan Kingdom, this suggestion is ultimately inappropriate. It is no wonder that Lu Jiaqin is only sixteen years old and has no official experience. So he sighed and said, “Little Nizi doesn’t know how high the sky is”, and put it aside.

But if it was normal, Lu Jiaqin would never be able to turn around again with this mistake.

In officialdom, it is better to sacrifice little people, who is willing to take responsibility for this?

Besides, they all said vaguely, and after turning a few corners, they couldn’t find the person who made the rumors.

Of course, in the case of Lu Jiaqin, it was no coincidence that two friends of Lu Jiaqin, Ji Ruji, the nephew of Governor Ji, and Han Yu, daughter of the prefect of Han, were talking about Lu Jiaqin being detained because of a policy theory. When I was angry, I happened to be heard by Governor Ji himself, and then I couldn’t help being surprised!

After asking why. It turned out that it was a misunderstanding!

Because at that time, he was receiving the imperial censors who were inspecting by order, and there were always dozens of officials from all walks of life, and there were officials with ulterior motives who used chicken feathers as arrows, so they misinterpreted Governor Ji’s original intention and passed an order to Yan. The prefect of the prefecture sent Lu Jiaqin to prison.

This is a misunderstanding that the speaker has no intention and the listener intentionally misinterprets it!

Governor Ji immediately issued an order to the prefect of Yanzhou, asking her to release Lu Jiaqin immediately.

As soon as the prefect of Han received the order of Governor Ji, he was about to let him go. As a result, Governor Ji learned that there was a small village girl from a mountain village who was going to argue for Lu Jiaqin’s injustice.

So, when her mind changed, she wanted to see how the little village girl who was born in the mountains and forests was going to vindicate Lu Jiaqin’s wrongful imprisonment this time.

Therefore, Governor Ji arranged this extraordinary court trial, and asked the academy students to argue with the village girl who was born in the mountains and forests. Regardless of the dialectical result, the prefect of Han came forward to declare Lu Jiaqin innocent, reprimanded Lu Jiaqin for a while, and then closed the case.

Her boss thought so, but the scholars didn’t know it! Excited for this unprecedented court trial! There are even more people who want to show their heads in front of the governor and the censor.

Therefore, as soon as the court trial began, the two sides clashed with each other.

Si Hongcang and Yun Tian didn’t make a sound, they just listened intently to the arguments of the academy students.

The scholars in the hall were divided into two factions. One faction supported Lu Jiaqin’s refutation for her. Han Yu and Ji Ruya were among them. On the other hand, those who wanted to show their skills to stand out, or those who were jealous of her taking the opportunity to get down on the ground, and those who were purely on the matter, and those who refuted for the sake of refuting, should be headed by a scholar surnamed Cheng.

Lu Jiaqin was different from what he saw the day before.

Indeed, after being informed by Han Yu and Ji Ruji last night, she already knew that Governor Ji had acquitted her.

But it was Governor Ji who wanted to see how Si Hongcang would defend her in court. So, she had to be more wronged and spend another night in jail.

How about just one more night? Being able to hand over Si Hongcang and Yuntian is the biggest gain in her life!

Lu Jiaqin is arguing that he is full of concern for the country, and the suggestions in the article are all for the sake of the people, which is a bit inappropriate, and also lack of knowledge and qualifications, and there is no disrespect or collusion with the enemy.

Cheng Shusheng smiled and said, “This time, that time is also. Now our Feng Kingdom is still at odds with Xiyan, the border gate has been in flames for years, and the emperor has also angrily scolded Xiyan Kingdom for tearing up the covenant and betrayal of faith. All these Lu Xiucai know, He also wrote such an article, proposing a soft strategy to restore the alliance between the two countries, so shaken people’s hearts, do you want to hand over our Feng Kingdom to others?”

What a heartbreaker!

Han Yu immediately stepped forward and threw out the words and words that Si Hongcang said that day, “Thousands of people read books, there are thousands of methods. Ten thousand people read books, there are ten thousand kinds of principles and methods”, and citing scriptures to prove it, reprimanded Cheng Shusheng was far-fetched, and he spurted out blood.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and smiled at Si Hongcang, meaning to learn from her and not take credit.

However, sophistry is totally unreasonable.

Another person came out and said that Lu Jiaqin’s text meant that even a newly enlightened child could understand it. His thoughts were so obvious, how could it be far-fetched?

Si Hongcang was annoyed.

These people don’t need to use the book on the right path after reading the book, but use it exclusively on these sidewalks, to make a name for themselves and to compete for fame and fortune.

She didn’t want to listen anymore, and she didn’t want to worry about Lu Jiaqin’s plans. Since she’s here, she can’t go there for nothing. It’s not enough to just listen to others.

Besides, this is a rare opportunity for the bears to fight against the Confucian scholars. You must end up with a tongue-in-cheek battle to make this trip worthwhile!

So, she raised her fists and said loudly, “Sir, the girl has something to say.”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone from the top and the next looked at her.

Lu Jiaqin was stunned and wanted to stop her, but Si Hongcang didn’t look at her at all.

Yun Tian knew that she was worried that Si Hongcang spoke, so he hurriedly pulled her and whispered, “Let her speak. You listen first, if you can’t, you can go up.”

Lu Jiaqin had no choice but to do so.

The prefect of Han was refreshed, because she was waiting for her appearance! He hurriedly said, “Come forward and tell me.”

He glanced at the Governor, and said, “Today’s court trial is different from the usual trial. It is mainly based on the rebuttals of Er and others. This official and the two Shangguan judges in court. Si Hongcang, this official allows you to stand and answer.”

After Si Hongcang heard it, he knelt down and worshipped before getting up to answer.

When Bai Yi saw Si Hongcang kneeling down at the prefect of Han, his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he had something to say, but he just pursed his lips and said nothing, and glanced at the prefect of Han, not knowing what he thought. something.

Si Hongcang first asked Scholar Cheng, “Dare to ask this young lady, do you know how the former Xiyan Emperor Hui fought against me, the former emperor Yan?”

Cheng Shusheng said proudly, “Hmph, I’ll ask questions like this!”

Actually disdain to answer.

Si Hongcang stared at her sharply. He said in a deep voice, “You know that history, and you should also know the history of the first emperor Yan Emperor when he fought against the Xiyan Kingdom! The situation back then was even worse than when the Yan Emperor fought against the Xiyan Yu Emperor. Shifeng Kingdom and Xiyan Kingdom are even more deeply enmity, and everyone rises up to execute them.

If the emperor also thinks like you just said, he will never die with Na Xiyan? The former emperor Yandi and Xiyan fought to the death at first, and later signed the ‘Auspicious Alliance’ with Xiyan. It was a win-win situation that promoted the peace and prosperity of the two countries for nearly a hundred years. Otherwise, how could there be the rule of ‘the prosperous age of the Emperor Yan’! “

Cheng Shusheng listened for a while.

Before she could think about a clear answer, Si Hongcang immediately said, “According to you, did the previous emperor Yan also betray his ancestors? If you were born at that time, would you also blame the previous emperor Yan and his relationship with them? Xiyan is fornicating, and you want to hand Feng Guo over to someone else?”

Cheng Shusheng broke into a cold sweat. He shouted, “Nonsense!”

He hurriedly turned to Han Zhifu and the others, knelt down, pointed at Si Hongcang’s nose and scolded, “My lords, the students have absolutely no intention of doing this. This person spit out blood!”

Han Zhifu remained silent.

Lu Jiaqin was shocked, and Han Yujiru looked at each other in astonishment.

Because what Si Hongcang said was exactly what they were going to say. Although the content of the expression was different, the idea was the same, that is, it started with Emperor Xianyan. Make it impossible for others to refute.

How is it so coincidental?

Another scholar stood up and said to Si Hongcang, “The first emperor, Emperor Yan, judged the situation and signed an ‘auspicious alliance’ with Xiyan according to the situation at that time, and achieved the emperor’s career for the ages. However, the situation at hand is completely different, how can they be compared!”

Si Hongcang asked eagerly, “Why can’t the current situation be compared with that of the past?”

The scholar replied, “In front of me, Fengguo and Xiyan are still on the same page, but they suddenly handed over the national book to discuss and seek an alliance? Compare. The power of the country is strong, if our Feng Kingdom promises to resume the alliance with Xiyan with the policy of Huairou, it will definitely be taken advantage of by it.”

Si Hongcang followed closely, “How do you know that Xiyan will take advantage of it? If you say it is inferred, then it is inferred that Lu Jiaqin’s policy of Huairou is feasible. Which inference is more reasonable and correct depends on the court and the emperor. Come and decide. How can you, a scholar, make a fool of yourself!”

The scholar blushed and said, “I am now ordered to argue with Lu Jiaqin.”

Si Hongcang raised his eyebrows, stared straight into her eyes and said, “You can argue, why can’t Lu Jiaqin argue? You say she is collaborating with the enemy, can I say you are alarmist and delusional?”

When the scholar heard the words, he was startled and said, “You…you…”

Si Hongcang cut off her words and said, “I don’t want to frame you. But——” She raised her voice. Then he said, “You can’t treat a student who has the heart of serving the country like this! Because your own words and deeds will also be scrutinized by others.”

The hall suddenly fell silent.

Taking advantage of Si Hongcang’s momentum, Yun Tian chased after the victory, “It is recorded in Fengguo Fengyunlu that in the fifteenth year of Emperor Yan, Feng was worried about foreign troubles at home and abroad, and the policy topics of the General Examination and the Palace Examination in those years were all based on the current politics at that time. The exam questions asked candidates to share their concerns for the country, express their own opinions, and speak freely, so as to promote talents. During the reign of Emperor Ye, Emperor Ye also vigorously promoted talents without sticking to one pattern. If they are like you, if they do not agree with their wishes, they will be given to them. People are labelled disrespectful and collaborating, and if things go on like this, who will dare to tell the truth?”

Everyone has a heart.

Si Hongcang followed closely and said, “I’m waiting for a young man, and he is in his prime. It’s time for the book business to be angry, and I scolded Fang Qiu! While talking and laughing, ‘pointing the country, stirring up the words, and the filth was ten thousand households.’ This is the spirit that a young man should have. As for what I said wrong–” She turned to the lobby and clasped her fists, “Of course there are the teachers of the academy, the adults in the court, and the emperor on top to teach us. Just looking at the situation in today’s trial, we will I know the good intentions of the three adults.”

The three of Han Zhifu were excited and comfortable, exchanged glances and nodded slightly. After a short pause, I heard Si Hongcang say again,

“Also, what is the purpose of the imperial court setting up Guozijian in the capital and academies in the states?”

Without waiting for anyone to answer, she vigorously continued, “The purpose is to educate the people, guide the late-schoolers to advance, and cultivate talents for our Feng Kingdom without sticking to one pattern!”

“If a young scholar does not dare to make a statement, or when he makes a statement, he looks forward to the future, considers the situation, and tries to protect himself before he speaks. He speaks and agrees with his own interests, and his words are purely flattering and confusing, and he will lose the youthful spirit and simplicity. If the youth of the whole country loses their vigor and simplicity, our Feng Kingdom will lose its vigor. After a few decades, the existing worthy ministers and generals of the court will be gone. Who will replace them?”

The scholars don’t need to say these words, if they were struck by lightning, it would be Governor Ji and the Censor Gao. And Han Zhifu was also shocked.

Si Hongcang firmly grasped the rhythm of the speech, raised his voice again, and threw out the sonorous golden words, “A young man is wise, a country is wise, a young man is rich, the country is rich, and a young man is strong, the country is strong! The young people of my generation are like the rising sun. It is like a river flowing out of the river, and the ocean is gushing. My generation is like a dragon diving into the abyss, with flying scales and claws, like a milk tiger screaming in a valley. A hundred beasts are shaking, like an eagle and a falcon trying its wings, the wind and dust sucks. My generation is like the first child of a strange flower. , squatting emperor; like a cadre with a shackle, there is a light. My generation is young. The sky wears its blue, and the ground walks its yellow. Throughout the ages, looking across the eight wastes, the future is like the sea, and the future is long!! If you shrink back, or open your mouth It’s just flattering words. The words full of praise and praise have lost their youthful character, so what’s the benefit to the country? If things go on like this, what will be the future of our Feng Kingdom??”

The other party has run out of words and can’t argue any more!

Under Si Hongcang’s throw of a rock, in a few days, a thousand layers of water waves will be stirred up!

“it is good!”

Governor Ji suddenly stood up and cheered loudly.

Gao Yushi’s hard face also showed a rare expression of approval.

The girls and scholars in the hall were even more excited and flushed.

There is a lot of copying of articles in the world, it depends on whether you can copy or not.

Si Hongcang came at her fingertips, because she came across with the essence of the treasure house of wisdom from her previous life. She even quoted the works of two great masters in the previous life, took the part corresponding to the current situation, and added and changed a few words, and the whole discourse was integrated by her. How can it not be amazing! ?

Since she and Yun Tian connected, she has been guiding the main line of the debate to the tenon position she has prepared earlier. Live the rhythm and dominance of this debate, and finally, the final word!

The author has something to say:
