At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 87 The Marquis of Yangcheng is also mine!

After discussing with Fang Xuanling the details of taking over the people, Xu Mu once again dropped the pick.

The current Lord's Mansion has various departments under its jurisdiction, and the most important Ministry of Civil Affairs has also been filled with a large number of small officials by Fang Xuanling.

He brought back...cough cough, the scholars who had been drugged and brought back, after passing through Lao Fang, they showed their affection and moved them with a knife, and most of them expressed their willingness to surrender.

Of course, there are still a group of really talented Imperial College students who surround Lu Chu and vow not to surrender.

There are about thirty people.

These are all outstanding students, and they have received many favors from the Luoyang court on weekdays.

In addition, Lu Chu is an honest person who admits death, so far, no matter how much Fang Xuanling persuades him, he has not been moved.

The same is true for Wang Tong, who has never expressed his willingness to join Wanmin City.

Regarding these two people, Fang Xuanling did not dare to deal with them rashly, so he kept them under house arrest in a small western-style building, living on the second floor where Lao Zhang used to live.

Xu Mu left the Lord's Mansion building and returned to the Xiaoyang Building.

As soon as he entered the small western building, he saw Lu Chu and Wang Tong chattering around Fang Yizhi who was in his early ten years.

"Oh, didn't I say that? These are all taught to me by the lord!"

"This is a contour line, and this is a scale, which can be simulated to construct a topographic map!"

Fang Yi was a child at heart, and couldn't bear the two chattering adults anymore, so he picked up the map in his hand and wanted to break free from the encirclement of the two.

The map in his hand is the topographic map of the mountains drawn after thoroughly learning contour lines and scales in the past month.

In fact, Fang Xuanling almost died of fright when he learned that he was trying to draw a topographic map near Wanmin City.

Topographical maps are a major matter for military strategists, and definitely not something that Fang's family can meddle in.

But he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was the lord's promise.

In the past month, I took Fangyi and traveled around the mountains outside Wanmin City, and only then did I make this picture.

This map is very important for his future development of the people's livelihood plan of Wanmin City.

"Don't go, you just finished talking about the contour line, how is this scale converted?"

Lu Chu and Wang Tong hurriedly grabbed Fang Yizhi, their eyes were full of curiosity.

When they saw such an accurate topographic map for the first time, they were astonished.

It took ten years of hard work to be able to draw such drawings.

But it came from a ten-year-old child.

After questioning, they learned a news that shocked them even more.

This picture... belongs to Professor Zhugong.

Being tied to Wanmin City, they have already learned that there is only one lord in Wanmin City.

"No more teaching, no more teaching, my mother told me to go home for dinner." Fang Yi rolled up the blueprint, and squeezed out of the two people's encirclement with his mouth curled up.

The two wanted to continue asking, but suddenly saw...Xu Mu's return.

The expression on his face froze, and immediately became extremely cold as if he had made an appointment.

Especially Lu Chu snorted coldly and went upstairs directly with a flick of his sleeves.

Xu Mu: "..."

He touched his nose in embarrassment, stepped forward, looked at Wang Tong, and said with a smile: "How are you doing in Wanmin City these days?"

Wang Tong glanced at him slightly, feeling cheated, and ignored him.

Xu Mu was not annoyed either, as a scholar, he is always a bit arrogant.

If it was so easy to surrender, he would doubt whether they were sincere.

Next, it's time to talk to Lao Wang about life and ideals.

After all, for this great Confucian, his lifelong mission is to revive Confucianism.

And in the world, no one understands him better than him.

"Old Wang, do you still remember the four actions I mentioned back then?" Xu Mu asked Wang Tong straight to the point without giving Wang Tong a chance.

Wang Tong's expression was slightly relieved, and he remembered the four sentences of establishing a heart for the world, establishing a life for the people, inheriting the unique knowledge for the past saints, and opening four sentences for peace for all generations.

Instinct told him that those who can say such famous words must be people who have the people and the world in their hearts.

It's just... He never expected that Xu Mu, who usually sat and discussed with him, was actually a rebel leader.

Moreover, he was so courageous that he ran to Luoyang City and directly kidnapped an entire Imperial College student!
"To be honest, Lao Wang, I am very disappointed in you."

Immediately after, Xu Muyu was not surprised, and Wang Tong was stupefied with another sentence.

He was slightly taken aback, feeling something was wrong, at this time... shouldn't he be persuaded to surrender?

"You have been in your thirties, but you have been studying Confucianism painstakingly. Have you ever cared about the people of the world? When you are not studying scriptures and annotations, have you ever opened your eyes to see this chaotic world?" Xu Mu said with a sad face. .

Wang Tong reflected for a while, and found that...he really didn't pay much attention to the world's major events.

"Do you know that the Great Sui Dynasty is on the verge of collapse, Li Mi in Henan, Dou Jiande in Hebei, Du Fuwei in Jianghuai, Fugong Ying in Shandong, Li Yuan in Taiyuan...these people have already divided one side, split the world, the people have been displaced, and the situation is precarious..."

"Do you know that in troubled times, the world has no heart, the people have no life, and the sages will be cut off, and the eternal peace is a ridiculous lie!"

"Do you know that every time I think of this, I can't sleep all night, tossing and turning?"

……

Afterwards, Xu Mu started a series of shelling.

Hmm... The reason for the tossing and turning was, of course, that Lin Qingcheng was too noisy.

Play disco on him every day.

But with his words, Wang Tong, a great Confucian, was cast into the dust.

Combined with the general trend of the world, he understood that what Xu Mu said was by no means alarmist.

"Under such circumstances, my lord has learned from the painful experience and decided to rise up to end the troubled times. With my own strength, I will do what I said that day. I will establish my heart for the world, establish my life for the people, inherit the teachings of the past, and bring peace to all generations. !"

At this point, Xu Mu stared at Wang Tong who was a little shy.

It's good to blush, it means that his words have an effect.

However, after a while, Wang Tong raised his head, met his gaze, and asked with a frown: "If you want to do these four things, you can also submit to the imperial court, sweep the world for the imperial court, calm all parties, and usher in a bright future." !"

"With...with your talents, you must be an able minister to rule the world. In addition to Yangcheng Marquis Sunying, you will be invincible. The Sui Dynasty will last forever. Why...rebel?"

Xu Mu didn't expect that, after trying to persuade him, Old Wang actually persuaded him...to submit to the Sui Dynasty.

Just kidding, Lao Yang is in my hands.

He is still obedient...

There is also Yangcheng Hou Sunying, who is also his man!

Xu Mu glanced at him lightly, and sighed: "Da Sui's life is exhausted, and he is powerless to recover."

Afterwards, Xu Mu decided to break the news for him.

"Who does the old king think the Marquis of Yangcheng is? How can a partial general stop Li Mi's army?"

Wang Tong frowned slightly, and replied: "Marquis Sunying of Yangcheng, originally under the command of Dugu Sheng, although he is a partial general, he hides armored soldiers and has a strategy in his belly. He has exhaustive strategies and is invincible. talent!"

To be honest, if Li Mi and Chen Bing Luokoucang had not been captured by the Marquis of Yangcheng, they would have already been breached.

Xu Mu listened to Wang Tong's serious answer, and the corners of his mouth curled up. It seems that his star-making plan has achieved remarkable results.

At least Lao Wang was fooled.

"You're wrong, Yangcheng Hou Sunying is also my man."

Then, Xu Mu's words plunged Wang Tong into a life of doubt.

"This is a deep mountain. After you were fainted by the medicine, you went down the Tongji Canal, entered Yangcheng, and came to Wanmin City."

Having said that, Xu Mu paused, giving Old Wang time to react and digest.

Wang Tong looked at Xu Mu in disbelief, as if confirming the truth.

But Xu Mu really didn't need to lie to him.

If this is the case...then this Wanmin City is scary even thinking about it.

He originally thought that the person who kidnapped him was a shady little force.

He might be able to persuade Xu Mu to surrender to the court.

Until now, he discovered that he seemed to have underestimated Xu Mu and Wanmin City...

Can ordinary rebels break into the Sui court?

This Yangcheng Marquis Sun Ying was conferred the princess!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel chills in his heart.

The most important thing is that this rebel force seems to have a bright future!
The belief that he had always insisted on was slightly shaken.

Although the country is broken, but the rebels broke into the Sui Dynasty that they don't even know...

Is there really any help?

Such a great Sui Dynasty has already been riddled with holes.

"Old Wang, I knew from talking to you in Xianweiju that we are the same kind of people!" Xu Mu stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said from the bottom of his heart, "There is no one in this world who is smarter than me." I understand you."

Wang Tong's body trembled.

His expression was a little weird.

But there is nothing wrong with Xu Mu's words.

The future development direction of Confucianism has indeed reached his heart.

"In the entire world, there is no place more suitable for you than Wanmin City! Only here can you display your ambitions and realize your ideals!"

Xu Mu struck while the iron was hot, and continued: "The future development of Confucianism must spread to all peoples. When the mountains and rivers are in turmoil, why don't you take the Wanmin City as a model, transform it, and try to display your ambitions?"

"It just so happens that I set my mind for heaven and earth, bring peace to all generations, sweep away Li Ting, and shake up the world, but you, establish your life for the people, inherit the unique learning for the saints of the past, revive Confucianism internally, and popularize enlightenment!"

After these words, Wang Tong was really shaken.

Especially the division of labor and cooperation promised by Xu Mu.

Really used his talents.

Let him stay in Wanmin City, teach and educate people, and educate the people, isn't this what he wants?

But out of reserve, he still didn't immediately agree.

Xu Mu didn't speak anymore.

With rich experience in fooling around, he knew that the time had come.

Always give Pharaoh a time to react.

After half an hour.

Old Wang still did not speak.

Xu Mu was not in a hurry, he waved his hand and said, "That's all for today, just give me an answer in three days!"

Wang Tong was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly and bowed to Xu Mu.

His attitude was much better than before when he treated each other coldly.

After torturing Wang Tong's soul, Xu Mu...carried Lin Qingcheng to the research institute.

For this rambunctious baby girl, he just wants her to grow up quickly, and then start with the nine-year compulsory education and let her study like crazy.

It just so happens that Wang Tong is also here, and when the time comes, I will compile all the textbooks for a series from elementary school to junior high school...

With the expansion of the population, the education of Wanmin City can also officially start.

……

graduate School.

Xu Mu handed Lin Qingcheng over to a woman in her fifties.

She was not a craftsman in the research institute, but followed the craftsman's wife, signed a death contract, and entered the research institute together.

There are many people like her.

The lovely Lin Qingcheng immediately aroused their maternal love, and repeatedly expressed that they would definitely raise her up.

After explaining the matter, Xu Mu came to the research room of the latest several subjects.

"My lord, an improved papermaking technique has been developed, and block printing has been completed."

A few old craftsmen, looking at the master who had not changed for more than ten years, bowed and said respectfully.

　Here I would like to thank Xiyu for the reward.
