"oh?"
Liu Zheng smiled.
The whole place was in an uproar, and everyone had different expressions.
The seventh prince Hemuti was so rude to the distinguished guests of the third prince Harik, which shows that his arrogance in Kucheng and his coveting of the throne at this time are already a bit unbearable. Not intending to give the third prince any chance to make a comeback, he came to embarrass the student Long Yan in public.
Liu Zheng chuckled: "Why don't you dare?"
Hemuti laughed loudly: "Loulan has worshiped the Han Dynasty since ancient times, and he has also raised many sour Confucian scholars, but in my opinion, they are nothing like that, and they are not as powerful as the sharp sword in my hand!"
"Come here, bring that traitor to me!"
Hearing such arrogance, Liu Zheng frowned. He had known that Hemuti was a fierce person, but he didn't expect that he didn't even give any face to his third brother and the Long Yan Dynasty. As he shouted loudly, the whole street changed color and everyone was terrified. I saw a man with disheveled hair being pulled out by several thick iron chains.
"Master Huang!"
"Huang Yantai!"
Regardless of the third prince Halik, Reheman, or the civil and military officials present, as well as the people, when they saw this person, they were all furious, and some couldn't help but cursed. It is all because of this Huang Yantai, which was originally the sacrificial wine for the prince of Loulan. Huang Lao devoted his life to spreading Han culture. During his forty years in Loulan, he served as an honest official and had peaches and plums all over the world. He devoted his whole life to the construction of the Loulan royal library. It can be said that Huang Yantai is the top one with the highest status among the Longyan talents introduced by Loulan.
Even the teacher of several princes and princesses.
However……
Just after the death of the old king, the seventh prince Hemuti, who had been angrily accused by Huang Yantai of being "barbaric like a beast", ransacked the Huang family on the charge of Huang Yantai of "slandering the temple", and Huang Yantai entered the house with a bang. Prison is extremely humiliating.
At this time, it caused an uproar in Loulan Kingdom.
It was also because of this matter that the vacillating civil and military officials did not rashly side with the Seventh Prince - he was so anti-Han. If he really ascended the throne, where would the Han people be?
"grown ups!"
"teacher!"
"Old Huang..."
Seeing Huang Yantai in such a miserable state, thin and yellow, with lifeless eyes, everyone present burst into tears.
Hemuti rode up to Huang Yantai and said with a proud smile: "Huang Han thief, do you know your crime?"
Huang Yantai raised his head and took a deep breath: "It's an imported magic stick that will mess with Loulan!"
Snapped!
Hemuti's riding crop fell accurately on Huang Yantai's face, leaving a shocking trace of blood.
Others were furious, and finally the third prince couldn't bear it anymore and angrily shouted: "Seventh brother, this is outside the palace, don't be too arrogant!"
Reheman's army of soldiers and horses also glared fiercely.
Hemuti laughed: "Third brother is joking, look, this is not what my mother was saying to me a few days ago, saying that this old thief Huang is old and has done a lot of work. Let me see that she serves her wholeheartedly." Temple, spare his life! How about we pull him out today and confront this Long Yan student? If he wins, he will be exempted from guilt! If he loses, there is nothing we can do."
As soon as these words came out, the whole crowd was furious.
The dignified prince offered wine and was so humiliated, people and gods were outraged.
Liu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, Hemuti's move today was really vicious. If Huang Yantai wins, he, as a student of Long Yan, will become famous and gain fame. He wants to help the third prince, but he doesn't have the ability.
But if he wins, Huang Yantai will definitely die!
It can be heard from his words just now that he has always wanted to kill Huang Yantai, but because of the great resistance from all aspects, he did not kill him either. It's perfect to take it out today.
Kill with a borrowed knife!
Killing with a borrowed knife in both directions!
Liu Zheng suddenly smiled. This plan was definitely not something that a reckless man like Hemuti could come up with. It can be seen that behind Hemuti, there is another person who makes suggestions.
Temple people?
This is almost setting up a dead end for Liu Zheng!
He should and should not, and should not.
Hemuti looked at Liu Zheng mockingly, wondering how you would answer. They are all Longyan people. Should I die for you or for him?
Reheman also looked distressed, wondering why the seventh prince suddenly had such a bright mind?
Liu Zheng smiled slightly.
How could this be so difficult for him?
He smiled faintly and said: "Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, Huang Lao's reputation is still heard in Long Yan, even in Xiang Zheng. Huang Lao is well-read, has a wealth of knowledge, and has written extensively in ancient and modern times. Strictly speaking, Xiang Zheng is a disciple of Huang Lao's family. ,"
As soon as this was said, people nodded frequently.
A few years ago, Huang Lao's "Travel Notes on Loulan" shocked the literary world. It discussed in detail the scenery, geography, climate, customs, and various information along the Loulan Kingdom. It was extremely romantic and fascinating. This man's status in the literary world is beyond doubt.
Hemuti laughed mockingly: "Master Xiang, are you afraid?"
"If you are not even as good as a prisoner of the first rank of Loulan, why are you still studying? Go back!"
The soldiers behind him also booed.
Huang Yantai also looked slowly.
Although he was in a state of embarrassment, his pride was still there, and he had not taken the yellow-mouthed kid in front of him seriously.
Liu Zheng smiled faintly: "I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid. It's because Xiang Zheng is not part of Huang Lao's school. Xiang Zheng is dedicated to traveling around the world. He just wants to collect the world's educational strategies, extract their essence, and discard their dregs for his own use. , this is what Xiang Zheng has been pursuing all his life, so Zheng believes that what Xiang Zheng has learned is 'new learning', which is completely different from what Huang Lao has learned."
The whole audience was in an uproar.
This guy's tone is so loud!
One person wants to create a theory? What kind of talent does this have to have to dare to say such a thing? You must know that Huang Yantai is in Loulan and has been engaged in this work for forty years. They only dare to spread culture and never dare to say that they want to create a doctrine alone.
New to learn?
Huang Yantai's turbid eyes also shone brightly, and he couldn't help laughing: "Young man, your tone is not small!"
Everyone also showed ridicule.
Regarding educating people, that is something Huang Yantai has been studying in Loulan for forty years. Although Huang Yantai was likened to "old learning" by Liu Zheng, since ancient times, hasn't educating people meant inheriting traditions and keeping in mind the teachings of the ancients? This is true wherever you go.
Liu Zheng smiled and said nothing.
He said this naturally to anger Huang Yantai. Just now he saw Huang Yantai, who was hopeless and wanted to die. This was normal. His house was ransacked and his wife and children were separated. He went from being a dignified prince to offering wine to a prisoner. And this man in his early sixties Regardless of age, anyone will be discouraged.
Liu Zheng knew that Huang Yantai had a very high status among Loulan scholars and officials. If he could escape prison today, it would be of great benefit to the third prince.
A dead situation can also be turned into an opportunity!
"Okay! Come then!"
Hemuti laughed loudly and waved his hand.
So two tables were set up outside the Loulan Palace, more than fifty steps apart. People in the city heard the sound and came. For a moment, Loulan officials, soldiers, traders, and people all gathered around.
The Longyang students faced off against Huang Yantai. This was a once-in-a-century scene!
Huang Yantai's reputation in Loulan exploded, and Long Yan's students were just starting out and faced such a great master.
The scene is beautiful.
What's more, there is also the life-and-death agreement proposed by Hemuti, which makes this battle become a strong smell of gunpowder.
The two looked at each other from afar.
Huang Yantai looked confident.
Liu Zheng looked indifferent.
"please!"
"please!"
The two were polite to each other.
Huang Yantai looked at Liu Zheng coldly: "Master Xiang's so-called new learning, is it disrespectful to the ancient masters?"
Everyone applauded.
In ancient times, the most important thing for people was to respect their teachers. Once a teacher, he would always be a father. What kind of new learning are you doing? Are you trying to be rebellious?
Liu Zheng smiled: "I respect my teacher, but I respect Li even more!"
"It is better to believe in no books than to have no books at all. Although there are many ancient books, they are full of contradictions. I dare to ask Master Huang, who do you believe in "Historical Records" and "The Year of the Bamboo Secretary"?"
Huang Yantai was shocked.
The crowd also became noisy.
Everyone knows that "Historical Records" has always been a highly respected official history book. However, in the later "Bamboo Secretary Year", there are many places that are inconsistent with "Historical Records". For example, in the historical impression of the world, the ancient capitals of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors They are virtuous saints, and they all give way to superior positions. However, the "Bamboo Book Annals" records that "Shun imprisoned Yao in Pingyang and took the throne." This means that Emperor Shun imprisoned Emperor Yao and came to power. Another example is the Shang Dynasty Prime Minister Yi Yin recorded in "Historical Records". In this ancient book, it is completely opposite to that in the "Historical Records".
When Long Yan discovered "The Year of the Bamboo Secretary", the literati were shocked and angrily argued that this kind of history book should be destroyed because many things recorded in it were too inconsistent with the image of the royal family and had an extremely serious impact on Confucian rule.
However, the "Year of the Bamboo Secretary" was still passed down.
This situation.
Who is real and who is fake?
Huang Yantai took a deep breath, and when he looked at the young man again, his eyes were different. In this era of ideological restrictions, books like "The Year of the Bamboo Secretary" are quite taboo. Not only did this guy study it, he actually dared to speak out in public?
Not an ordinary person!
Is this really an officially recognized traveling scholar?
Rebellious!
Show off your edge!
Huang Yantai also laughed loudly and shouted: "Master, please listen, virtue is the foundation of a career, and the work of a career is the work of virtue. As virtue improves, the career will improve, and as the career improves, virtue will flourish. Master, as you are. Father, if you don’t believe me, isn’t it unfilial and unvirtuous?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone cheered loudly.
Liu Zheng smiled slightly.
This is the shortcoming of the ancient bullshit education system. In everything, we must first pay attention to the concept of emperor and father. The emperor is the supreme innate power. In the family, the father is the guide for the son and the husband is the guide for the wife. This kind of ignorant education has kept the people in a state of exploitation for a long time.
Of course, Liu Zheng also knew that this concept could not be corrected in a short time.
Therefore, at this time, this Huang Yantai used Xiao and De to describe himself, and it was indeed like a bloodless knife!
Liu Zheng was directly pushed to the edge of the cliff.
Everyone also sneered, thinking that this young talented man was still a little immature. With his level of debate, how could he have any original theory?
It’s so generous!
The third prince and Reheman also looked at each other worriedly.
