The old man's words were solemn and convincing.
It was like a basin of cold water poured on those loyal fans, causing their enthusiasm to drop a lot in an instant.
Many people even nodded slightly in agreement.
They hadn't noticed this before, they just thought those four beauties were really charming. The moment they saw them, their minds went blank.
However, if you think about it carefully, you will suddenly realize that this is Zhuangyuan Street, a holy place for scholars in Sioux City. How could a woman wearing such revealing clothes be allowed in?
In this way, what is the difference between them and these women?
People!
When I see something, I don’t think it’s unusual at first, but as soon as someone takes the lead, it immediately becomes a topic of conversation.
"My boss, he is Feng Moqing, a well-known storyteller in Sioux City. I heard a few days ago that he had a storybook for sale. The reason why we launched an investigation is because we influenced the sale of his storybook."
Zhou Zhong leaned close to Jiang Yifeng's ear and told all the old man's information.
Sure enough, colleagues are enemies!
The corners of Jiang Yifeng's mouth turned up slightly, and he said calmly: "I don't know if the senior is here, but the junior is a little disappointed, so I hope you can forgive me."
"snort!"
Feng Moqing snorted coldly and put his hands behind his back, "Don't want to have anything to do with me. Today I'm here to question you, why did you find four... women like this?"
Jiang Yifeng asked knowingly, "What kind of woman?"
When Feng Moqing saw Jiang Yifeng pretending to be stupid, he said angrily: "He is dressed so revealingly, like a brothel girl."
"They are actually brothel girls!"
Jiang Yifeng did not hide anything and directly admitted the identities of the four Shishi people.
When the scholars around them heard this, they were stunned. They thought these four women were a bit 'excessive', but they didn't expect that they were actually women from a brothel.
"You...you actually brought the brothel girl to Zhuangyuan Street. What are your intentions?" Feng Moqing pointed at Jiang Yifeng, with an angry expression on his face, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
Yesterday was the day when his storybooks were sold. Perhaps because he was older and could not write good storybooks, the number of readers who bought his storybooks was much less than before.
In order to increase the number of buyers, the bookstore owner discussed with him and asked him to come to Zhuangyuan Street in person to promote his storybook.
So, he took his disciples to Zhuangyuan Street to promote it.
Not to mention, the effect was quite good, and I sold a lot more in the morning.
But I never expected that no one would be around in the afternoon. I asked the disciples to go out and inquire, only to learn that disciple Su Shikui had also written a storybook and was selling it.
At that moment, Feng Moqing felt that it would be difficult to sell his storybook.
Because his reputation as a storyteller is completely incomparable to that of Su Shikui. Even Su Shikui's disciples crush him in popularity.
However……
Just when he was about to go back, he saw the four people of Shishi handing out leaflets. Suddenly an idea came to his mind, and he came to investigate.
His purpose was simple, either to destroy this bookstore or to ruin the reputation of Jiang Ning, a disciple of Su Dongchu.
But he didn't expect that everything would go so smoothly, and Jiang Yifeng would directly admit the identities of the four women.
Jiang Yifeng asked: "Does the sage stipulate that women from brothels cannot enter Zhuangyuan Street?"
Feng Moqing thought for a while and said: "A sage is a person who cares about the world, and the things he manages are all major world affairs. Is this a small matter worthy of a sage personally taking care of it?"
Jiang Yifeng glanced over and sneered, "You bring your disciples to find things that the sages don't ask about. Is it possible that you are better than the sages?"
Feng Moqing was shocked and quickly retorted, "How can I be compared with the saints? Don't talk nonsense."
"You have asked about things that sages don't ask about. Isn't that more powerful than sages?"
"of course not."
Feng Moqing calmed down and thought about it and said, "What's your point? Can't I intervene in things that sages don't ask about?"
"Sages are the people who set the aspirations of the world. We set our aspirations for the saints. The saints are great and may not have the same experience as you, but we scholars cannot just sit back and do nothing. What's the problem with this?"
As soon as this statement came out, one of Feng Moqing's disciples immediately cheered, "Well said."
The other scholars who were watching nodded again and agreed with Feng Moqing's remarks.
"It's a bit hard to lie!"
Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly when he heard this.
When Feng Moqing saw that Jiang Yifeng was silent, he continued: "We, the scholars, look up to the sages and receive their teachings. We should regard the sages as gods, but you brought the girl from the brothel to Zhuangyuan Street. This is a great disrespect for the sages."
"You are still a scholar. If you can even humiliate sages, do you still deserve to be a scholar? Is it necessary for your bookstore to exist?"
Wait a minute...
You old guy just attacks me, why do you want to attack my book store?
Could it be that Zhou Zhong was really right? It was a lie that you launched an army to investigate, but in fact it was just to discredit the bookstore.
"It turned out to be a troublemaker!"
Jiang Yifeng suddenly stopped panicking, and a smile appeared on his face.
At first, he thought that Feng Moqing was here to defend the sages. He instinctively admired such religious people and planned to show mercy.
But now, since we know that the other party is here to cause trouble, there is no need to show mercy.
well!
He is a very kind person and is always bullied.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng brewed up his emotions and made himself look like those who had done something wrong, crying bitterly.
He solemnly saluted Feng Moqing with an annoyed expression on his face, "Senior, you are right. As a scholar, I should not have brought the brothel girl to Zhuangyuan Street, and I should not be disrespectful to the saints. I have sinned deeply and it is in vain. I have read books by sages for so many years.”
Is this an admission of mistake?
Jiang Yifeng's sudden change made not only Feng Moqing, but also other scholars and Shishi four people stunned.
For a quarter of a moment, Feng Moqing felt that it was too easy for Jiang Yifeng to admit defeat.
But the four people in Shishi looked ashen as death.
If even Jiang Yifeng admits his mistake, then no one will protect the four of them. If these scholars continue to discredit them, no one may patronize them in the future, and they will become the lowest prostitutes.
But at this moment, Jiang Yifeng raised his hand towards the scholar, "Everyone, in order to prevent me from making further mistakes, "Water Margin" and "Jin Ping Mei" will not be sold. This is regarded as my punishment. In addition, the poem by Su Shikui It’s a masterpiece that you all won’t have the chance to see, I’m really sorry.”
"What a pity! What a wonderful poem...Uncle Zhong, please return the money."
The last words were addressed to Zhou Zhong.
Although Zhou Zhongxin was reluctant, Jiang Yifeng said so, and he had no choice but to return the money he had just collected.
When Feng Moqing saw this, he couldn't help but smile. If nothing else, he won.
However……
Feng Moqing didn't notice that the scholar who had supported him not long ago looked at him with cold eyes.
