Finally, the Confucian scholars couldn't bear it any longer. They didn't want to wait any longer.
Someone said to Meng Ji, "Did Chunyu Yue not hear the news?"
Meng Ji hummed: "Two or three hours have passed and he hasn't come yet. He must have not heard the news. Apart from that, I can't think of any other possibility."
The Confucian scholars then said: "Then how do we let him hear about it?"
Meng Ji said: "Send a servant directly to his home and tell us frankly."
The Confucian scholars nodded.
So Meng Ji gave the servants instructions again and let him go.
Half an hour later, the servant came back and said with an embarrassed look: "The villain arrived at Dr. Chunyu's residence, but was not allowed in. The gatekeeper said that the doctor was writing a book called... An Introduction to Confucianism and did not want to see guests. "
When the Confucian scholars heard the words "Introduction to Confucianism," they all became furious.
Because these four words remind them of some bad memories.
These Confucian scholars shouted one after another: "How can he be so virtuous and capable as a Chun Yue? Why should he write an introduction to Confucianism? Is he worthy? Bah!"
After the Confucian scholars yelled and cursed for a while, they stopped.
After all, they have been here for a long time and are all a little tired.
After a long time, Meng Ji suddenly smiled: "Everyone, Chunyu Yue is certainly hateful, but this incident also revealed a message. He still longs to be a Confucian."
Everyone was stunned and nodded.
If Chunyu Yue did not aspire to be a Confucian, why did he write an introduction to Confucianism?
This shows his deep desire for Confucianism.
Suddenly a Confucian scholar said: "We...could we have wronged Chun Yuyue?"
Everyone was stunned: "How can you say this?"
The Confucian scholar said: "Chun Yuyue, why did you write an introduction to Confucianism? Why is the name of this introduction to Confucianism so similar to the introduction to immortality?"
"I wonder if this could be the reason: Chun Yuyue has been very regretful since we expelled him from Confucianism last time."
"He wants to ask for our forgiveness, but he doesn't know what to do. He wants to apologize, but he can't save face."
"It just so happened that at this time, because of the introduction to immortality, we were targeted by the general tabloid and were smeared."
"After Chunyu Yue found out, he thought this was an opportunity. He wanted to write an introduction to Confucianism to help us correct our name, as a way to show his goodwill to us. I hope to get our understanding."
After hearing this, the Confucian scholars around them all nodded: "It makes sense, it makes sense. That's what Chunyu Yue should have thought."
But after all, there are some sane people.
These people said with some confusion: "However... if Chun Yuyue wants to help us, he can just tell Li Xin directly. Why bother to go to such trouble to write a book?"
The Confucian scholar from before smiled slightly: "This... I have guessed it too. Chunyu Yue's advice to Li Xin will naturally put an end to the matter. But... who knows that he did this? How could he show favor to us?"
"So, he spent a lot of effort to write an introduction to Confucianism and build up enough momentum to let everyone know that he, Chunyu Yue, is on our side."
All the Confucian scholars were suddenly enlightened.
Many people laughed and said, "I didn't expect that Chunyu Yue would have such a small thought."
Meng Ji smiled from ear to ear, shook his head and sighed: "Unexpected, unexpected. This Chun Yuyue is really irritating and ridiculous. Seeing him doing such things carefully, I can't blame him anymore."
Everyone nodded in agreement: "Yes, why don't we give him a chance."
Meng Ji said: "I plan to go to Chunyu Yue's residence and give him kind words and comfort. What do you think?"
All the Confucian scholars nodded in unison and said, "Brother Meng is so broad-minded and admirable. Let's go together. Let's go together."
So a large group of people walked towards Chun Yuyue's mansion.
On their faces, there was a sense of noble mission to visit poor children.
When walking on the street like this, the Confucian scholars felt that a holy light appeared on themselves...
Not long after, they had arrived in front of Chunyu Yue's gate.
Meng Ji came forward and called the door.
A servant came out and said, "My master is very busy and doesn't see any guests."
Meng Ji sneered: "Fart, if the other guests don't see you, why don't you even see me? We are Confucian scholars from Qi and Lu."
The servants were all confused and thought: Confucian scholars from Qi and Lu? Is this a big name?
Meng Ji insisted on going in, but the servants refused to let them in, so the two parties started arguing at the door.
Chun Yuyue was writing an introduction to Confucianism. When he was writing Kawen, he felt extremely irritable. When he heard the dispute outside, he suddenly became angry.
He stood up and shouted: "Who is outside?"
Meng Ji shouted loudly: "It's me and other Confucian scholars from Qi and Lu who are here to visit you."
Then, these Confucian scholars pushed and pushed and broke in through the door.
The servants couldn't stop them, so they had no choice but to let them go.
Chunyu Yue looked at these Confucian scholars and was slightly stunned, but he soon understood.
Nowadays, Confucian scholars and general tabloids are making a fuss, and Chunyu Yue has heard about it a little bit.
These Confucian scholars had already broken up with me, but today they came to visit shamelessly. Needless to say, they must have come to apologize and want me to help them clear things up.
The more Chunyu thought of this, he couldn't help but smile.
When the Confucian scholars made wild claims and wanted to expel him from the Confucian school, he was actually very angry.
Chunyu Yue was angry, but not afraid.
After all, he is a doctor of Da Qin and a leader of Confucianism. He was a Confucian scholar recognized by the imperial court.
The Confucian scholars in Qi and Lu were not qualified to expel him.
However, this does not mean that Chunyu Yue will not be angry.
He was angry because he felt disgusted.
Why do you fire me?
It's like walking on the road and suddenly being bitten by a mad dog.
Although animals do not understand human nature, they can still affect their mood.
Chunyu Yue originally made up his mind to have no contact with the Confucian scholars in Qi and Lu until he died.
But now, when he saw the Confucian scholars visiting him in person, he felt a little softer.
These extremely proud Confucian scholars are actually willing to lower their faces and apologize? Come to beg for mercy? Came for help?
Chunyu Yue thought with emotion: Yes, these days, the General tabloids have really driven these people to a dead end. After all, we are all Confucian scholars, so if you can help them, there is no harm in helping them.
Thinking of this, Chunyu Yue said to the Confucian scholar: "Please come in."
After the Confucian scholars came in, the guests and hosts sat down.
Neither party spoke, and the atmosphere in the room was very awkward for a while.
Chunyu Yue was a little puzzled and thought: Aren't you here to beg for mercy? Why don't you speak?
The Confucian scholars were also a little puzzled: We have all come to visit you, which is a great honor to you. Why don't you apologize?
After the two sides were silent for a long time, a Confucian scholar finally coughed and said, "I heard that Dr. Chunyu is currently writing a book called Introduction to Confucianism?"
This topic was neither painful nor unpleasant, but it finally opened up the conversation and ended the awkward situation.
Chunyu Yue nodded: "Yes, I recently read the Introduction to Immortal Studies and was greatly inspired. I think I can organize Confucianism systematically."
The Confucian scholars all laughed. I thought: Sort out Confucianism? Are you worthy?
However, they did not forget the purpose of coming today.
Meng Ji said: "Well, since we have arrived, I will speak frankly. We gathered together today and arrived at the doctor's place. We have something to say."
Chunyu Yue nodded, thinking: They are finally going to apologize.
Meng Ji said: "Doctor, you don't have to be upset. In fact, we have already forgiven you."
Chunyu Yue: "???"
What is this word? He was a little confused.
Meng Ji said: "Who in this world has never been confused? Who has never done something wrong? As long as you know you are wrong and are willing to correct it, that will be fine."
Chunyu Yue: "What?"
The Confucian scholars next to him said in a flurry of words: "We have clearly seen the doctor's repentance. To be honest, we are a little moved by it. So we are here specifically to comfort you. "
Immediately afterwards, another Confucian scholar made a bad face and said very seriously: "But, doctor, you have to remember, this is just this time. If you are confused again, no one will help you."
Chunyu Yue finally understood now.
It turns out... these people feel that they are thinking about their mistakes behind closed doors? Feel like you're repenting? Do you feel that you are heartbroken after being expelled from Confucianism?
Chunyu became more and more angry and happy.
The Confucian scholars all looked at Chunyu Yue with smiles: Look, he is smiling. This is a happy smile. It seems that we saved a Confucian scholar who made a mistake today.
Meng Ji coughed dryly, stopped the Confucian scholars who were chattering, and then said quietly: "Chun Yuyue, now everyone is tolerant and accepts you. You must be very grateful in your heart, right?"
"We know that you wrote this introduction to Confucianism just to earn face for us and to help us seek justice."
"However, there is no need to go through all this trouble. After all, you don't know when it will be until you finish writing this book. Why don't you call Li Xin here immediately and apologize to us in person, and we will just No further investigation."
Chunyu Yue: "..."
He looked at Meng Ji in confusion: Why do these people have such long heads? Come to me, humiliate me, and then I have to help them out?
Pooh!
Meng Ji said with a smile: "Dr. Chunyu, just follow the instructions."
"Get out." Chunyu Yue said.
The Confucian scholars were stunned.
Meng Ji looked at Chunyu Yue in surprise: "Dr. Chunyu, did I hear wrongly?"
Chunyu Yue said calmly: "You heard me right, I told you to get out."
Meng Ji was a little angry: "Chun Yuyue, do you know what you are talking about?"
Chunyu Yue patted the table and said to the servant: "Get out of here."
Then the servants came with sticks.
The Confucian scholars scurried away in panic, as embarrassed as they wanted.
As luck would have it, when they escaped to the door, there was a click, a white light flashed, and someone took another photo.
And this person happened to be a reporter from the General tabloid.
Why did the reporter come so quickly?
Because the city is full of informants for the General's tabloid.
Provide a clue, and once adopted, there will be generous rewards.
Therefore, I don't know how many people in this city are staring at this group of Confucian scholars. When they came to Chunyu Yue's house, someone went to report the news.
As a result, the Confucian scholars were unlucky to be in the newspapers again.
Another hit.
…………
"Sir, there is someone outside asking to see you." Meng Ji was sulking at home when a servant suddenly ran in to report the news.
Meng Ji said angrily: "Who is it? Missing."
Meng Ji really didn't want to see him, it was already embarrassing enough for the past few days.
None of the customers who came to the door were serious people.
Some came to encourage Meng Ji to fight, some came to express sympathy, and some simply came to watch the fun.
These people made Meng Ji very angry.
The servant said: "But this man said that he brought good advice that can help you defeat the general and the tabloid."
The four words "General's Tabloid" immediately aroused Meng Ji's nerves.
He felt a pain in his heart, and then nodded slowly: "That's all, let him come in, it doesn't hurt to meet him."
Meng Ji was a little surprised. Who wanted to see him?
If you want to bring down the General tabloid, you may have to bring down Li Xin. And there are people in the DPRK who have the ability to bring down Li Xin...
Have it?
I'm afraid there's only one Chun Yuyue, but... I already had a big feud with Chun Yuyue last time, and this person won't help me no matter what.
If it wasn't Chun Yuyue, who would it be?
Meng Ji felt a little puzzled.
But he soon knew the answer. Because the servant came in with a merchant.
The merchant's face was shiny and he had a philistine expression.
Meng Ji was a little unhappy.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the Qin Dynasty had an orderly hierarchy.
He did not think highly of merchants.
but!
Now Meng Ji is also in a critical condition and has sought medical treatment. Let's just treat it as a life-saving straw and grab it. What if it can be used?
So he said calmly: "Sit down."
The merchant laughed dryly and said, "My surname is Ma. Sir, just call me Shopkeeper Ma."
Meng Ji snorted: "What's your family background? How many courtiers do you know? You actually boasted about Haikou and said you could help me defeat the general's tabloid?"
Shopkeeper Ma was the first to go and said: "Destroy the General's tabloid, a villain would never dare to say that. But it can still be done to help the adults save some face."
"General Haojiao learned that there are many Confucian scholars in Qilu and Qilu. Although most people are watching the Confucian scholars' jokes, there are also a small number of people who are filled with righteous indignation. They insist not to buy, read or spread the General's tabloid. . It’s very valuable.”
Meng Ji nodded.
Of course he knew that a large number of people sympathized with the Confucian scholars. Most of these people are wealthy people and have always been on good terms with Confucian scholars.
Shopkeeper Ma said: "If we can win over these people and create momentum, won't your honor be restored?"
Meng Ji was stunned for a moment, and felt that there seemed to be some way to this matter, so he said, "Go on."
Shopkeeper Ma said: "The villain founded a newspaper called Confucian's Daily. This Confucian's Daily is specifically designed to compete with the general's tabloid."
"So the villain wants to get the authority of the Confucian scholars to publish some remarks that are beneficial to the Confucian scholars."
"The general tabloid can use the newspaper to smear you sirs, and you can also use the newspapers to clear your name."
Meng Ji nodded with satisfaction: "It makes sense, it makes sense."
Shopkeeper Ma added: "In addition, please mobilize your relatives and friends to buy more Confucian newspapers. This will create the illusion that newspapers are in short supply and everyone likes Confucian scholars."
"Some people who don't know the truth may change their views."
"At that time, I will compete with Jiangjun Tabloid to see who can sell more. If we beat Jiangjun Tabloid, then the people will trust us even more."
"At that time...hey, haven't your reputations come back?"
Meng Ji nodded vigorously: "It makes sense, it makes sense."
"Come on, come on, sit down. I want to talk to you carefully about what a Confucian is and what Confucianism is. You should write well and praise well."
Shopkeeper Ma nodded repeatedly, with the usual smile of a profiteer on his face.
