Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Dong Cheng also knew about the scholar. When he learned the whole process of the incident, he laughed out loud on the spot, as if his chance of revenge had come.

"Chen Yang, and Cao Ang, you guys are looking for death, so no wonder I'm cruel!"

As long as he thought of what Chen Yang scolded him that day, Dong Cheng couldn't swallow his breath. He said ruthlessly: "This time, I will definitely let you be stigmatized for thousands of years, and you will never be able to hold your head up in this lifetime."

"Go and find a group of people for me right now, whether they are scholars or not, as long as they can get in with the scholars, let them all make trouble for me, the bigger the trouble, the better!"

"Also, let me know that this incident is not only Cao Ang's fault, but also Chen Yang, who is the leader behind it. I will make his restaurant never open again."

After finishing speaking, Dong Cheng felt that half of his anger had been vented, so he continued: "Immediately call all the ministers in my name, and I want to go to see the emperor right now!"

An hour later, outside the palace gate.

Led by Dong Cheng, a total of more than 100 officials all jointly signed a letter, demanding that Chen Yang and Cao Ang be punished, otherwise the hearts of scholars all over the world will be chilled.

Not only that, they were worried that they would be persecuted by Cao Cao in the future. They had already spread the news before writing the letter. Those who surrounded the gate of Cao's mansion already knew that Dong Cheng was seeking justice for them.

If Cao Cao would harm Dong Cheng and others, those scholars would be the first to be unwilling, and the trouble might get worse.

After making all the arrangements, before Dong Cheng brought more than 100 people directly to the emperor's bedroom, the guards did not dare to obstruct them because there were too many of them.

As a descendant of Confucius, Kong Rong's reaction was the most violent, and he talked about all kinds of wrongs with Cao Ang. It was better to say loudly: "Cao Ang has insulted the saint. I implore your majesty to descend on Cao Ang and give justice to the scholars in the world."

After hearing his words, all the ministers around him knelt down and repeated Kong Rong's words.

Seeing their behavior like this, Liu Xie felt a headache. This matter is not a big one, but it is not a small matter if it is a small matter.

He didn't know what to do with the request of many ministers and the prime minister's house that he was most afraid of. He thought in his heart that the Cao family could really do things for him.

"Your Majesty, what Cao Ang has done has made the scholars all over the world angry. If Your Majesty lets it go and ignores it, it will chill the hearts of the scholars all over the world!" Dong Cheng said loudly.

Among the officials present, except for those from aristocratic families, most of the rest were developed by scholars and then recommended to become officials.

They were all heartbroken for Cao Ang's behavior.

"Okay, you all get up!"

Liu Xie rubbed his forehead, he had no choice but to say: "I will pursue this matter to the end, Eunuch Zhang!"

"The slave is here!"

Eunuch Zhang immediately stepped up and spoke.

"Help me draw up an imperial decree..."

Speaking of this, Liu Xie didn't seem to want Dong Cheng and others to know the content of the imperial decree, so he waved and said, "You all go back!"

At this point, Liu Xie also started to chase people away, and Dong Cheng and the others had to retreat first.

After Eunuch Zhang finished writing the imperial edict, he quietly wrote a letter and sent it out of the palace.

As for the content of the imperial decree, Liu Xie has not yet sent someone to announce it.

However, Chen Yang soon knew the contents.

When Chen Yang returned home, he just received the letter from Eunuch Zhang, and he read it carefully for a while.

Afterwards, Chen Yang crumpled the letter into a ball, and said, "Come here, call me over here!"

After a while, Fang Hua appeared in front of Chen Yang, and he asked respectfully, "Master, what's your order?"

"Tomorrow all our restaurants and wineries will be closed, and I will let you know when they will open." Chen Yang said.

"why is that?"

Fang Hua quickly said, "Master, did I do something wrong?"

Recently, Lao Fang is very proud of his spring breeze. To be appreciated by Chen Yang, he feels that he will soar into the sky.

It's just that Chen Yang suddenly talked to him like this, making him feel that his good days are coming to an end.

"You didn't do anything wrong. Follow my instructions. Also, go to the factory and tell Ye Shun to bring 1000 people into the city to protect our restaurants and wineries."

Chen Yang continued: "Someone will come to make trouble tomorrow, but let them make trouble. If they dare to smash our things, they will all be arrested."

After Fang Hua heard this, he probably knew that something serious would happen tomorrow, so he didn't dare to neglect and went to inform everyone himself.

"Zian, I'm afraid it's wrong for you to do this!"

Not long after Fang Hua left, Zhang Wang also came over. He worried: "It will damage your reputation!"

Chen Yang didn't think so, he smiled and said, "Father-in-law, take a look at this first, and you'll know who the unlucky person is in the end!"

After speaking, Chen Yang took out a book from his arms and handed it to Zhang Wang.

This is a volume of "The Analects of Confucius" sent by Ma Jungang. It was only printed today, and there is still a faint fragrance of ink on it.

"This is……"

Zhang Wang opened it and looked at it for a while, then said in surprise, "This is the book you mentioned? It's really much better than the bamboo slips we used, and it's easy to carry. The paper is amazing!"

Chen Yang smiled and said, "Is this kind of book enough for me to fight back?"

Zhang Wang's vision is also unique, and he can see the benefits at a glance. He nodded and said: "Not only can we fight back, but it is also a good thing for the benefit of future generations."

"Therefore, there is no need to worry about this matter. I never do things that I am not sure about." Chen Yang said.

"That's right, with your talent, I'm the one who worried too much!"

Zhang Wang smiled relievedly, and asked again: "Can you give me this book?"

Chen Yang nodded. He will have more of these books in the future, and even the whole city will not be short of books.

Almost at the same time, another piece of news suddenly spread among the scholars.

That is, the culprit of the whole incident is not only Cao Ang, but also a person named Chen Yang, so someone made Chen Yang's mansion and property public.

Before nightfall that day, the group of idle scholars were divided into two groups, one group went to besiege Cao's house, and the other group naturally besieged Chen's house.

Coupled with Dong Cheng's role in fueling the flames, the incident became more and more serious. If it wasn't for the need for a curfew at night and soldiers to drive them away, they would have the urge to stay outside Chen Yang's house all night.

"It's finally clear outside."

Chen Yang had expected this, even if Cao Ang was responsible, he would be dragged into the water sooner or later.

At the same time, Cao Ang also learned about Chen Yang's current situation, and his depressed heart finally felt relieved.

"Shopkeeper Chen, this time you even cheated yourself, haha..."

Cao Ang said gloatingly, then he took out Chen Yang's book of poems and read it with relish.
