Chapter 574

One bite at a time, what about our scholars,

Every one of them is just a craftsman of humble origin, a pariah of Li Shu.

Zhou Jie is too proud, he is a scholar, he is a Hanlin, and he is considered to be a star of Wenqu. Wherever he goes, he is flattered and humbled to please?
Whether it's a farmer, a businessman, or a magistrate, who doesn't nod and bow when seeing him, and says "Zhou Hanlin" every time he sees him?
He is a Beijing official, a Hanlin!
But his eyes were raised too high, and he could only see the six ministries and the cabinet, but he couldn't see the people at the bottom, the farmer Li Shu whom he disdained to mention.

Now, surrounded by Li Shu whom he despises, Zhou Jie is still unwilling to bow his head, he is still a "untouchable", as if he is supposed to be superior and these common people Li Shu should kneel in front of him.

"Kill this dog official who dared to beat Bachelor Wang!"

I don't know who shouted, and the people who were suppressing their anger couldn't help but rushed forward. The young man who was crying for his old mother who passed away due to the disaster just now took the lead and rushed to the front, watching In front of him, the Hanlin dog officer whose chin was almost lifted up to the sky, directly kicked Zhou Jie to the ground with his kick.

How similar is the situation of this kick to Zhou Jie's fight against Wang Lichen, who was born as a craftsman, by relying on his Hanlin status?
This moment is like that moment!

Following the shout of "Kill the dog official", the common people stepped forward one after another, punching and kicking, and after a while, Zhou Hanlin, who was aloof, was beaten by the angry common people and could only curl up on the ground and howl endlessly.

"Kill this dog officer!"

"This dog officer doesn't want us to be full, and we don't want him to live!"

"You still dare to beat Immortal Wang? Kill this evildoer!"

"Fathers and folks, don't let this traitor go!"

"."

After a burst of punches and kicks, Zhou Jie was beaten until his eyes were staring, his mouth and nose were bleeding, and his vision gradually became blurred. As he wailed and groaned, Zhou Jie's voice became weaker and weaker until he lost his voice.

Whether those Hanlin bachelors or old pedants, they could only watch the surging crowd surround Zhou Jie. Zhou Jie only screamed a few times before being overwhelmed by the angry shouts of the crowd. Thousands of people surrounded Zhou Jie. Surrounded by Jie, they couldn't even see what was going on inside, but they all knew that Zhou Jie was doomed!

The anger of the common people erupted, and these Hanlin, who usually had one "untouchable" and one "foolish people", knew how terrible power these seemingly honest and obedient mud legs contained.

"The mob! The mob!"

An old pedant tugged at his beard and turned pale. How dare these untouchables beat scholars? !
The rest of Hanlin was also very frightened, and if they were asked to rescue Zhou Jie, they would definitely not want to die, but they were still unwilling to admit their mistakes, and were still stubborn:
"Reverse, reverse, how dare these mud-legged people do anything to scholars?! The country is about to perish, the country is about to perish!"

"When will it be the turn of the lessons of the people to become officials? Scholars are treated so harshly, it is a sign of chaos in the world!"

"Your Majesty, hurry up and stop these mobs, Zhou Hanlin is going to be beaten to death!"

"Your Majesty, how can there be any reason in this world for a farmer to attack a scholar? They are planning to rebel!"

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but sneered at these so-called "court loyal" and "national talents" and said, "Don't you say that you don't blame the public?"

"And didn't you say it, this is an act of righteous indignation."

"In my opinion, what you say makes sense. The law does not blame the public. With so many people standing in front of you, how dare you say that you are not at fault?"

An old pedant couldn't help saying, "Your Majesty!"

"I am dedicated to serving the country, how can you treat me and other scholars like this!"

"No matter how bad Zhou Hanlin is, he is still a scholar. The so-called politeness is not inferior to ordinary people, and punishment is not superior to a doctor. Even if you want to punish Zhou Hanlin, you can just punish him with court battles. These peasants are rude. Zhou Hanlin will be beaten alive by them. Die!"

The rest of Hanlin also pleaded for Zhou Jie: "Your Majesty, you can't just watch Zhou Hanlin being beaten to death by these mud legs!"

"You are cutting yourself off from the world of scholars!"

Seeing these Hanlins kneeling on the ground and crying, Zhu Youxiao was very irritated by their crying, while Zhang Haogu looked at the crowd, and after confirming that the crowd showed signs of dispersing, he said in time: "Your Majesty, since the Hanlins , begging hard, why not let the people disperse."

"I think the anger of the people has dissipated. If that's the case, why not forgive Zhou Hanlin once."

A group of Hanlin looked at Zhang Haogu in surprise, this traitor would actually speak for them?
The old pedant breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that although Zhang Haogu was cruel and cruel, he was still a scholar after all, he was the number one scholar in scientific examinations, and he still knew where his butt should sit.

And Zhu Youxiao also listened to Zhang Haogu's suggestion, and said casually: "Since the master said so, let him go."

The imperial guards hurriedly ordered Jin Yiwei to go up to rescue people: "Hurry up, hurry up, disperse the mob!"

"Zhou Hanlin, Zhou Hanlin, we are here to save you!"

However, when the people dispersed and the Hanlin people ran to Zhou Jie crying and shouting, Zhou Jie had already been beaten beyond human form, and the Hanlin's clothes were all torn to pieces by the furious people.

"Zhou Hanlin?"

"Zhou Hanlin?!"

Su Mingzhe stretched out his hand tremblingly to test Zhou Jie's breathing, and finally cried to Hanlin around him, "Zhou Hanlin, he was beaten to death by those mobs!"

"what?!"

The faces of Hanlin turned pale in an instant, and each of them looked at each other with sympathy and sadness. The rabbit died and the fox was sad. Today, Zhou Jie was beaten to death by the mob driven by the dog emperor. Will it be their turn tomorrow?

"Your Majesty! Please punish these mobs severely, Zhou Hanlin deserves to die!"

"Your Majesty, these lawless mobs actually beat Zhou Hanlin to death, let them be buried with Zhou Hanlin!"

"That's right, Your Majesty, let these mobs be buried with Zhou Hanlin!"

"These mud-legged people dare to kill officials today, and dare to rebel tomorrow. The emperor should deal with these mobs quickly and frighten Xiaoxiao's heart!"

A group of Hanlin knelt on the ground crying and shouting non-stop, making Zhu Youxiao very upset.

The majestic Hanlin, besides drinking and having fun, gambling with prostitutes all day long, criticizes the government, and cries, cries, cries!
Do these Hanlins do anything else besides cry?
At this time, Zhang Haogu stepped forward to take a look, and after confirming that Zhou Jie was really beaten to death by ordinary people, he said with a smile: "Everyone Hanlin, according to the meaning of this pavilion, it is better to stop this matter."

"The imperial court is not pursuing Zhou Hanlin's beating of Wang Xueshi, nor will he pursue the responsibility of the common people. After all, the law does not blame the public."

"And Zhou Hanlin doesn't have any objections, does he?"
