Ji Tang

Chapter 956

At this time, there was a loud quarrel in the formerly peaceful Qilin Pavilion. The big bosses were talking to each other and refused to give in, so they almost started fighting.

boom!
"Shut up the old man!"

Fang Xuanling slammed the table and said angrily.

"This is outrageous. Where is this place? This is the most solemn Qilin Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty. And what are you doing? If this spreads out, you will laugh out loud."

After scolding for a while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is there anything you can't sit down and talk about slowly? Do you have to have a loud quarrel?"

Then he pointed at Ma Zhou and said, "You tell me!"

Ma Yiyi was stunned, looked at everyone's faces, and could only say: "I can hear your opinions clearly, and I know that everyone is doing it for the good of Datang, but after all, what has happened, what we should do now is what to do Fighting like this is not the way to deal with this matter!"

Fang Xuanling frowned and looked at Ma Zhou with some dissatisfaction.How high-spirited was Ma Zhou back then?His Majesty called him into the palace three times in one day to discuss government affairs, but since he came back this time, he has become more and more tactful.

After Ji Song resigned from Xuanzhou, he was appointed by the emperor to take over Ji Song's position and became the governor of Xuanzhou.Later, he served as the governor of Xuanzhou, Hangzhou and Suzhou in Jiangdong.

He stayed in the field for more than ten years. After the establishment of Qilin Pavilion, he was promoted by the emperor to Qilin Pavilion to participate in politics in the eyes of everyone in surprise. Although his official rank remained unchanged, his power was greatly increased.It makes many veterans who want to enter Qilin Pavilion extremely envious.

For more than ten years, Ma Zhou was once forgotten by the world. Except for hearing a little news about him from the year-end plans every year, the events of that year have long been forgotten by the world.

But who would have thought that the emperor would call Qilin Pavilion back as soon as it was established. Based on his experience over the years, there are really few people who can compare with him.

During his tenure, with the exception of Xuanzhou, the three other prefectures became rare wealthy places in the Tang Dynasty. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the population grew rapidly, and two-crop rice was vigorously promoted, which greatly increased local agriculture.

This kind of resume has completely secured his current position, but what is surprising is that he, who thought he would show off his talents when he came back this time, rarely speaks. Even if he has suggestions, he is extremely humble.

Just like today, in the eyes of others, this is He Xini.

"Prince Bin, there is no one else here. You can say whatever you want. This is not okay!"

Du Ruhui paused and said.

Ma Zhou frowned a little and said, "Since Prime Minister Du wants me to say something, I won't be polite."

"It's time to stop. If we continue, there will be big trouble!"

Ma Zhou's words were not surprising and he would not stop. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone was a little embarrassed.

"Hey, Prince Bin, are you exaggerating a bit? Everyone knows it well. Everyone plays this scene well and everyone gets what they need. Why not?"

A trace of gloom flashed in Chu Suiliang's eyes, but it was quickly hidden, and he said a little unhappy.

Ma Zhou did not look at him, but said directly to Fang Xuanling: "Fang Xiang, there is nothing wrong with us doing this, but have you forgotten the original intention of this matter?"

Without waiting for everyone to speak, he continued: "It is the anger of students all over the world after facing injustice. This is not a game played by one person or that family. Students from all over the country are eagerly waiting for news from Chang'an. If something unexpected happens at this time, , I am afraid that it will completely anger the students who are already furious."

He raised his head and looked at Fang Xuanling with burning eyes, and what he said almost made him fall to the ground.

"For example, someone died to remonstrate"

Boom~
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were as dumbfounded as if they were lost in thought.

"Is this impossible?"

An official behind Ma Zhou said in disbelief.

Everyone was shocked. If such a thing really happens, no matter what the purpose is, it will definitely ignite the already angry students. By then, every one of you here will probably become a victim.

If there is any Qingming and the majesty of the court at that time, those students will completely drag them into the abyss, and they will never be able to climb up again.

No one dares to take this responsibility, and no one dares to be the introduction.

"This is not impossible, but it is very likely to happen soon. Prime Minister, Prime Minister Du, you have passed this time."

Just when Fang Xuanling opened his mouth to say something, a loud voice came from outside.Everyone frowned, but why did this voice sound so familiar?

"Jisong? What are you doing here?"

Seeing Ji Song wearing a red robe, Chu Suiliang, who had a grudge against Ji Song, immediately scolded him.

"Go away, if you dare to make any noise again, I will beat you to death."

Without even looking at him, he pushed him aside.

Chu Suiliang's face turned green and white for a while, but he didn't stop Ji Song anymore. The bastard said that the beating was a real beating. Last time, His Majesty Tai Chi's hands were too harsh, so he lay down for a month before getting out of bed.

"presumptuous!"

Fang Xuanling slapped the table and said angrily: "Ji Song, if you want to show off your authority, go to your military department. This is not the place for you to act wild."

This bastard is so presumptuous. He dares to do this in front of himself, the prime minister. What else can he not dare to do?
Ji Song didn't take it seriously and said with a smile, "Do you know what I heard outside?"

He looked around and said angrily: "An old county magistrate came all the way to Chang'an to seek an explanation from the court for the students under his rule, but now he can't even meet you all."

"He told me that if he couldn't get a satisfactory answer, he would be killed immediately outside the Suzaku Gate, so that all the scholars in the world could take a good look at what kind of people were in the Tang Dynasty's court."

Fang Xuanling trembled when he heard this, and the others did not dare to say anything.

"What? You don't say anything? Okay, okay! You don't tell me, but you all want to be famous and want to go crazy? That's all the local officials do, but you do the same?"

"Do you feel a sense of accomplishment when students all over the world are fooled around by people like you? Are you going to give up and do what you say once you have the power?"

"Have you ever thought about what the students all over the world would think if someone really died? They would think, is the court really planning to give up on them? Is it really not going to give them a chance? Think about it, everyone. What will a desperate student do when the time comes?"

At this time, Fang Xuanling had fallen down on the chair without saying a word.

Ji Song sighed after speaking, "Let's give them a reassurance as soon as possible. If it's later, I don't know what will happen."

"I'm going to tell His Majesty about this matter. Please handle it as soon as possible. I hope it's not too late!"

Ji Song left, and everyone in Qilin Pavilion was left looking at each other. "Fang Xiang!"

Ma Zhou hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and whispered: "This matter should be done sooner rather than later. Although Duke Tan is rude and his words are rude, his words are not rude. If it is too late, I will worry about you."

Fang Xuanling raised her hand to stop Ma Zhou from continuing, as if he had aged several years, and said to Lao Du: "Keming, go out and tell them quickly. The Japanese official will definitely give them an explanation tomorrow so that they can wait with peace of mind. In addition, tell them that students in the world, regardless of north or south, are all students of the Tang Dynasty, and the imperial court will definitely deal with them impartially and will never let down the scholars in the world."

Du Ruhui hesitated to speak, but finally sighed, shook his head and turned around to go out.He knew that when this order was issued, this old friend would no longer be able to stay in the court.

I interrupted His Majesty's arrangement without consulting His Majesty. What did Your Majesty think?
The other one is to protect oneself wisely. Now that we are old, we should think about our children and grandchildren.Do you really think they don't know the consequences of doing this?Is it necessary for Ji Song to talk nonsense in Qilin Pavilion?

But His Majesty has His Majesty's plan, and even if they know what the consequences will be, they still have to do it.

Suddenly, Du Ruhui laughed!

"That's fine. You're already so old. What can't you let go of? This time it's about bringing some benefits to future generations. As for Your Majesty?"

"Let him do whatever he wants!"

When Du Ruhui released the news, everyone was overjoyed. They won. Not only did they get the results they wanted, but they also gained a lot of fame.

Everyone was cheering, everyone was smiling, and Du Ruhui also laughed.But those who also laughed were the ones who jumped the most. I hope they can still laugh in the future!
Many of these people have bad intentions. Do they think they can make the court and His Majesty bow their heads by taking advantage of the general situation?Who do you really think they are?Your Majesty, is it so easy to bow your head?
But there are some people who sincerely ask for help for the students under their rule. Most of these people have no hope of official career, and they are broken. No matter how bad they are, how bad can they be?
The magistrate of Luo County who was talking to Ji Song burst into tears over this incident. He could finally give an explanation to the students under his rule. The court is still filled with wise people, and His Majesty is a very wise man and will not let the Tang Dynasty. The students were disappointed.

Ji Song walked out of Qilin Pavilion without going out, and went directly to Wuying Pavilion to wait. At this time, the cheers outside had already attracted everyone's attention. If they inquired a little, they would know what happened.

As for Ji Song's riot in Qilin Pavilion, of course it would not be spread. After all, it would not sound good to curse on other people's territory, so everyone tacitly forgot about it!
When Ji Song came to Wuying Pavilion, Li Jing already knew what was going on.Seeing Ji Song's silence and lack of interest, his heart skipped a beat.

"Boy, does this matter have anything to do with you?"

No wonder Li Jing was so surprised. At the beginning, everyone just wanted to perform the scene well and get what they needed.The imperial court gained the reputation of caring for scholars all over the world, and local officials also gained the reputation of praying for the people. Everyone was happy!
But in the end, things became more and more confusing. Everyone saw His Majesty's actions in private, but they just pretended not to see it.In order to cooperate with His Majesty, Li Jing and others pretended to be stupid, preferring to let their sons be the chickens who killed the chickens to scare the monkeys, rather than expose the matter.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others are also pretending not to know, preferring to bear infamy and cooperate with His Majesty in acting.

Everyone is pretending to be stupid. What if a 'smart person' appears at this time?Do you really think His Majesty is easy to get along with?
"I just can't stand it anymore. Everyone is thinking about getting benefits. What does Your Majesty want to do by taking such risks? They are all idle. How can the Tang Dynasty finally get such a good atmosphere, and then it is all gone?"

"Toying with all the students in the world, if something goes wrong, you can't just kill one or two people. Aren't you still worried about the family? One generation does what the other generation does, and is so eager for quick success and instant benefit, there will inevitably be backlash. What do you really think? Don’t you even know? If they are really pushed into a hurry, believe it or not, war will start all over the Tang Dynasty. Even if the imperial court wins in the end, the Tang Dynasty will be back to its previous poverty-stricken state."

"Is this what you want to see? You all want to protect yourself wisely, and you all think that doing more is worse than doing less. If everyone thinks like this, I really doubt how many years the Tang Dynasty can survive."

"Jisong be careful!"

Li Jing quickly stood up and walked to the door to take a look. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and closed the door. He pointed at Ji Song and said angrily: "You are the only one who is smart. You can see clearly that you are a great saint and we are all villains." ?”

"Your Majesty is getting more and more erratic now. Anyway, we are afraid. Lao Fang and Lao Du can't see clearly like you? But they would rather pretend to be stupid than disobey His Majesty."

"It's better for you. You directly disrupted His Majesty's arrangement. You just wait. His Majesty will summon you soon. Remember, we are all old and we still count on you to deal with the aftermath for us. If you get into trouble Well, our family has no hope."

Ji Song lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, letting Li Jing curse angrily!

"Is Duke Ji Song of the State of Xi here? Your Majesty invites you!"

The eunuch's voice came from outside. Ji Song packed up his clothes and walked out directly.Li Jing fell down on the chair, looking a little uncertain.

"I hope it's okay, otherwise"

To Ji Song's surprise, it was not Chen Shou who came this time, but Zhang Cheng.

"Brother, you're good. Are you almost becoming the successor of that old guy Chen Shou? What? When he leaves, will you start to take over?"

Ji Song teased when he saw Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng waved away the people around him and said with a wry smile: "Good Lord, what did you do to make His Majesty lose his temper? You almost scared me to death just now, so be careful."

After speaking, there were no more words. Being able to speak can be regarded as a friendship over the years.

Ji Song smiled and nodded, then followed Zhang Cheng towards the Tai Chi Hall.

But what surprised him was that Zhang Cheng did not enter the Tai Chi Hall directly, but walked towards the school grounds behind.

"Your Majesty is waiting at the school grounds, please be careful."

When Ji Song heard the call, his heart began to beat. Is it because Li Shimin wanted to kill someone and silence him?

After passing the urn city between the high walls, we came to an open school field. This was originally the training place for the Jinwu Guards, but there was no one there today.

No, except for the emperor standing on the high platform and the miserable Chen Shou on the side.

"Chen Jisong pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Ji Song had no expression on his face and saluted directly.

"You all leave!"

Li Shimin waved his hand, wanting Chen Shou and Zhang Cheng to retreat.

"His Majesty."

Chen Shou was startled and quickly stepped forward and shouted.

"Ok?"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

Chen Shou did not dare to neglect, and he had no choice but to retreat. When passing by Ji Song, he only said in a voice that they could hear: "Young Master Xi, please take care of yourself!"

When he and the emperor were the only two people left on the school grounds, Li Shimin turned around and pulled out a horizontal knife from the weapon rack, and threw it to Ji Song.

Ji Song was startled and couldn't help but take the Hengdao in his hand.

The moment he took the knife into his hand, his hair stood on end, and he almost left the knife on the ground.
