Chapter 557 Public Debate
Sun Tian looked at Xie Yuan on the stage, and saw that her back was stiff, her lips were tightly pursed, and she showed a rare and lonely expression of powerlessness.

In the ears, I heard the bustling, or whispered or excited discussions under the stage.

Moreover, those people pointed at Xie Yuan with their eyes and fingers, and suddenly a burst of anger rushed to the top, and they roared loudly:
"Who the hell is talking nonsense again, I'll cut him off!!!"

The crowd suddenly became quiet, and most of them ran away in fright. Some of the more courageous ones also gathered together and looked at him with timid eyes.

As for the other soldiers who had just learned about it, although their eyes were shaken, they had some doubts, and some even seemed a little at a loss, they still stood there. After hearing Sun Tian's roar, they subconsciously drew their swords out of their sheaths together, and jointly defended Xie Tian. Yuan's dignity.

They couldn't tell whether it was habit or intention, so they had already done so.

In the stands, the old master looked at Sun Tian and the others' reactions, then turned to the stubborn Xie Yuan and said:
"The old man's surname is Wang. The Wang and Xie clans have always had a marriage practice. I heard that your mother is also a member of the Wang clan. Maybe if you look up the genealogy, we are also distant relatives.

I know that you are in a high position now, holding military power in your hands, and others have to avoid you when they see you, and dare not speak out.

But no matter for the honor of the Wang and Xie clans or for the etiquette and order of the world, the old man has the responsibility to stand up and risk his life to persuade the general to return to the right path. "

Xie Yuan narrowed his eyes and sneered:
"The right way? Is it true that Xie has repeatedly made military achievements in leading troops to fight, arresting criminals and still justly rectifying the country's laws? In the eyes of the master, this is a crooked way?"

The old master with white beard also laughed, and said sarcastically:

"Why do you forcibly distort the meaning of the old man, if General Xie had not made one or two achievements, the whole world would have mobilized to attack him, how could it be the old man's turn to come out to persuade you to change your ways?

Now, General Xie’s fake identity has been exposed. In view of your meritorious service to the country, you will be exonerated for deceiving the emperor and ruining Gangchang... But you should know that this is not what you should place to stay.Isn't it a kind of dignity to retreat bravely from the rapids at this time? "

Xie Yuan listened, sneered again, leaned back helplessly, spread his arms and said loudly:

"Decent? If I were a boy, would you let me retire? Would you think it would be decent to retire?!"

She was originally a person whose every move touched people's hearts and could easily infect others.

This action at this time, the voice was full of unwillingness and resentment, which immediately made Zhuo feel anxious, as if seeing the end of a hero...

"But you are not! Why do you divide men and women into human beings? Why do heaven and earth divide Yin and Yang? People are doomed from the moment they are born. A woman is in charge of the house and keeps her children. The land protects the family and defends the country. It is precisely because of the observance of such laws and rituals that there are endless generations of grandparents and grandchildren today.

Is it because of you alone that you broke the ancestral etiquette and disrupted the order of the world, so rebellious, you dare to do it?

You have lost all the face of your Xie ancestors!Didn't your parents teach you etiquette, righteousness and shame? "

Xie Yuan's brows jumped wildly, and he clenched his fists on his knees, afraid that he couldn't help it, so he went up and punched the old man opposite him to death!

Han people have always respected and admired scholars, and it is precisely because of this that the Xie family has been able to maintain its glory for nearly a thousand years.

It is precisely because of this that Xie Yuan, who has been fascinated by his ears and eyes, can still maintain a semblance of reason when the other side is so provocative.

Even the emperor of a country would not dare to kill a famous Confucianist easily.

If she did it, because of her poor reputation as a girl, she would immediately become notorious, and the world would attack her.

Slowly, more and more people gathered under the stage.Xie Yuan turned his head and glanced at the audience, just in time to see a woman leading a little girl, and the two of them stared at her with curious and shocked eyes.

The little girl's clothes were stained with dirt and her hair was frizzy, just like her naughty appearance when she was a child.

She retracted her gaze, straightened her spine, and said in a calm tone as much as possible:
"Yes, my parents said the same thing, saying that I was born to be a girl, and a girl should be dignified and quiet, not able to run or jump... I have heard these words a lot since I was a child.

I thought that as a woman, I really couldn't do anything except housework and having children.

The results of it?Look at me... it turns out that there is no such thing as predestined.

Men can do things, and I can do them better than them. I can also fight the enemy and defend the country.Master, if you explain this truth, I can do it, why not? "

The old master looked at Xie Yuan, and at the heroic, confident and dazzling young man opposite, there was a momentary wavering in his eyes, but soon, he suppressed the wavering, and said:
"Since Pangu opened up the world, there have been no women who have served as officials or generals. This is the law of heaven.

You think you can do it, but there are tens of millions of men in this world, where is it your turn to be a girl who can do it for you?You just need to go back and do your part well. There are so many things that men do to protect their home and country! "

Hearing this, Xie Yuan slowly stood up from his seat, looked at the old man opposite, gritted his teeth and asked word by word:
"What if I just don't want to?"

The old master looked up at Xie Yuan, shocked and angry, pointed at her nose and said:
"You... are stubborn! Shameless! Why did Mrs. Xie teach you such a rebellious shrew? It's out of face, it's ridiculous!"

Xie Yuan sneered and said:
"So, master, this is unreasonable..."

"Sophistry! The old man has said so much, but you didn't listen to a single word. How can you say that the old man is unreasonable? The way of heaven is ordinary, and if you don't abide by the rules of etiquette, you are in vain!"

Xie Yuan pointed at the sky with his hand, and said angrily in a high-pitched voice:

"The way of heaven is ordinary, and the rules of etiquette are common? From the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the present, the ordinary way of heaven is changing, and the rules of etiquette are also changing. Master, if you have a few ancient books at home and have read poems and books, you should know that what I say is true!

If we say that since Pangu opened up the world, no woman can stand in court and be a general.Then, since I Xie Yuan, I have it! ! "

Her voice was up and down, deafening, and she took a breath when she turned around, with her hands behind her back, standing majestically, the hem of her clothes fluttering with the wind.

She scanned the crowd under the stage, and said majesticly and coldly:

"If someone refuses to accept it, let's see you on the battlefield, and see you on the sword! There is no need to waste time by talking so much!"

After finishing speaking, she walked down the steps gracefully, passed the personal guards standing on both sides, and walked towards the general's mansion.

Everyone's eyes followed Xie Yuan's figure, and they were unusually quiet.

If it is said that before they had to shut up because they were afraid of the authority and cherished their lives, now they looked at this maverick woman, and they were quiet from the bottom of their hearts...

　"Since I Xie Yuan, I have it!!"
