Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

After listening to it, Le Cheng was stunned.

The official of Handan Mansion who came to inform said anxiously: "Da Sima, we have to think of a way now."

Le Cheng turned his gaze and asked, "Can't we disperse or arrest them?"

The Handan official shook his head and said, "No way, there are too many people. If there are casualties, we won't be able to take responsibility at all."

Le Cheng was furious, and said: "It's unreasonable, could it be that thousands of scholars are trying to challenge the majesty of the Handan government?

I immediately mobilized Handan soldiers and horses, and sent troops to disperse them! "

Le Cheng was also red-eyed this time, he knew that someone was targeting him, so he wanted to calm down this matter at all costs.

Just as Le Cheng's order was issued, the steward came to announce again: "Patriarch, Lord Xin is here!"

Le Cheng was taken aback. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the figure of Xinjun Lin Xiangru.

Lin Xiangru said angrily, "Da Sima, what's the matter with you?"

Since Zhao Guo is about to start the annual plan, Lin Xiangru, who is an internal historian, is so busy during this period that he has no time to pay attention to the big and small things in Handan City.

Therefore, Lin Xiangru didn't get the news until the scholars from the academy entered the city on a large scale, and came in a hurry.

Le Cheng blushed slightly, and said: "I don't want to hide it from you, this is actually someone who wants to deliberately target me, either Wu Xinjun or Pingyuan Lord.

But don't worry, I have dispatched troops and horses, and I will be able to disperse this group of scholars from the academy soon! "

When Lin Xiangru heard this, his face changed drastically: "Send troops to disperse the scholars?

Are you crazy!Hurry up and stop, otherwise, when the scholars are dispersed, it will be the end of your life as a big Sima! "

Chapter 494 Your Le Cheng will be over tomorrow!

When Le Cheng heard these words, he obviously didn't take it seriously: "Xinjun is just some scholars, why is this!"

Lin Xiangru became anxious, grabbed Le Cheng directly, and roared angrily: "What do you mean just some scholars?

That is Da Zhao's reputation among the scholars in the world! "

Zhao Guoxue Palace is now a sacred place in the hearts of all scholars in China. Every scholar regards entering the academy as a great achievement, and many people regard the knowledge and ideas in the academy as their standard.

As long as any well-known scholar in the academy is willing to become an official, he will immediately get an official position in any of the vassal states in China.

It is no exaggeration to say that the academy has now become the mainstream of the entire Chinese ideological circle, and has a decisive influence on the scholars of the entire world.

Once the scholars in the academy were arrested by the Zhao government, or even sent out the army to suppress them, it would be a big deal if word got out.

At that time, the scholars in the world will definitely think that Zhao State is a place that treats scholars very harshly, and they must be alienated from Zhao State.

Someone is going to ask, isn't it just the low-level scholars, is it important?

Very important!Unlike any previous era, the low-level scholars actually dominated the entire Warring States period.

In the Warring States Period, there were no imperial examinations and no schools that could train Huaren in batches. However, if you want to govern the local area, educated officials are indispensable.

Where do these officials come from?

Of course, it came from among these low-level scholars.

Scholars are actually the lowest and largest layer of the bureaucratic class among the vassal states in the Warring States Period.

Since the Seven Heroes stood side by side in this era, scholars came and went quite freely.

If you don't stay here, you have your own place to stay. If this country treats me badly, I'll just change to another country and continue working.

Shang Yang, the concubine son of Wei Guozhong, entered Qin and helped Qin to reform and prosper.

Wei State Wu Qi entered Chu, and helped Chu State reform and become strong.

Zhang Yi of Wei State entered Qin State and helped Qin State to dominate the world with the strategy of Lian Heng.

There are many, many such examples, all of which are manifestations of scholars who have made significant contributions after changing their schools.

Therefore, the attitudes of the monarchs of various countries towards the scholars have always been very polite, and even many times the monarchs can only smile when they are spit in front of some respected scholars. This is a situation that many dynasties in later generations will never see.

Therefore, once a country is labeled as "discriminating against and suppressing scholars", the country will be in big trouble.

Not to mention everything, at least the vast majority of scholars will not go to this country to become officials, and this country will lack a large number of grassroots officials and senior talents, which will cause the operation of the entire country's ruling machine to get stuck or even fail.

When Lin Xiangru said this, he said to Le Cheng viciously: "Do you understand now, my big Sima?

If something really happened to the scholars, even if only one scholar died in the suppression led by you this time, Da Zhao's reputation for abusing scholars will be completely established!At that time, in order to appease the anger of the scholars all over the world, what else can the Queen Mother do if she doesn't take you under the knife? "

Le Cheng was dumbfounded, cold sweat spread all over his back in an instant.

After all, he is just a general of the Zhao State, and he has been paying attention to military affairs for many years. How can he understand these twists and turns?

Le Cheng's face collapsed, and he said to Lin Xiangru, "Xinjun, save me!"

Lin Xiangru took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "Go to the place where the scholars gather immediately, and ask them to stop you.

The old man will go to the palace to meet the queen mother! "

Handan government office.

Handan upset Zhou Shaoliang, he shouted: "Those damned scholars are still not leaving?

Where is Da Sima, what is he doing? "

The officials in front of Zhou Shaoliang all looked at each other in blank dismay. It wasn't that they didn't want to report, but that the angry scholars had already blocked the entire government office, and there was nothing they could do.

Zhou Shaoliang's eyes flickered, his face was extremely ugly.

At this moment, a junior official of the Handan Mansion suddenly appeared, and made a gesture towards Zhou Shaoliang calmly.

Zhou Shaoliang breathed a sigh of relief, then gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice, "Quickly, open the gate, I will go out and have a talk with these scholars!"

The officials of the Handan Mansion were shocked and said, "Your Majesty, this can't be done."

"Fu Zun, there are a group of thugs outside, if they attack you, what should you do?"

Zhou Shaoliang shouted: "If you don't go out again, this government office will be demolished, open the door!"

After a while, the gate of the Handan government office opened, and Zhou Shaoliang walked out boldly, leading more than a dozen Handan officials.

As soon as he came out, a mass of scholars suddenly appeared in Zhou Shaoliang's sight, which made him startled.

A burst of overwhelming shouts followed: "Release the scholars and many innocent people!"

"Remove Le Cheng, the incompetent!"

But he still forced himself to suppress the fear in his heart, and said loudly: "Scholars, this old man is Handan Commander Zhou Shaoliang, I have something to say, just listen!"

After Zhou Shaoliang yelled more than a dozen times, the scholars gradually calmed down.

Zhou Shaoliang coughed, and said loudly: "As for the arrested scholars, they were arrested by the government according to the order of Da Sima Lecheng. Now they are all imprisoned in prison, but their lives are definitely not in danger! As long as they are interrogated If it turns out later that they are indeed not criminals who spread rumors in the city in order to dismiss important ministers like Da Sima, then the government will release them immediately!"

After listening to Zhou Shaoliang's words, the scholars did not feel any quiet, but became more restless.

"It turns out that this despicable person, Le Cheng, was instigated!"

"Our scholars are innocent, and freedom of speech is innocent!"

"He can do it happily, but we can't?

Release the scholar immediately! "

Zhou Shaoliang waved his hands again and again, signaling the scholars to listen to him quietly, but the scholars had been waiting outside the government office for a long time, and the anger accumulated in their hearts just formed a breakthrough, and no one listened to Zhou Shaoliang's words after all the disturbance for a while.

At this moment, a sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded.

Many soldiers of the Zhao army poured out from the nearby streets and surrounded these scholars.

A young general named Le Zhen, Le Cheng's nephew, gave the order almost without thinking: "Dispel these scholars immediately!"

The next moment, the soldiers of Zhao Jun began to rush towards the scholars, and began to punch and kick the scholars.

The scholars are unarmed and not all of them practice martial arts on weekdays. How can they be the opponents of Zhao Jun soldiers?

Many people were beaten down and even fainted at once, and the sounds of various fractures kept ringing out.

But among the scholars, there are also those who have martial arts and courage, and immediately shouted: "Fight with these bastards!"

So the two sides began to entangle fiercely, directly turning the square outside the Handan government office into a large-scale fighting venue.

Chapter 495

Handan Commander Zhou Shaoliang was startled when he saw this, he rushed to Le Zhen and shouted angrily, "General Le Zhen, what are you doing?"

Le Zhen was condescending, and said to Zhou Shaoliang coldly: "Didn't the Fu Zun hope that Da Sima would help him?

This is the help of Da Sima. "

Zhou Shaoliang shouted: "The old man wants him to come forward and explain to the scholars, not to take such violent actions! You should stop your subordinates quickly, otherwise Da Sima will not be able to protect you!"

Le Zhen shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, we won't stop unless Da Sima orders us."

Zhou Shaoliang was in a hurry, so he didn't care about Le Zhen at all, and went straight up and dragged a number of soldiers from the Zhao army to prevent them from further violence against the scholars.

However, these soldiers of the Zhao army were already red-eyed. At first, some people directly pushed Zhou Shaoliang away to let him not get in the way. fist.

With a bang, Zhou Shaoliang only felt a sharp pain, his eyes went dark, and he passed out with a loud cry.

Le Zhen had a panoramic view of this scene, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

In Le Zhen's view, Le Cheng's appointment as Da Sima means that the Le family will soon become one of the most prominent military clans in Zhao State. Anyone who speaks ill of the Le family at this time will be damned!Since these scholars attacked Le Cheng so openly, it was Le Shi's kindness to beat them up!Le Zhen's smile hadn't completely disappeared when suddenly there was a rush of hooves.

As soon as Le Zhen turned his head, the expression on his face suddenly became solemn, and he said respectfully to Le Cheng who came to him: "I have seen Da Sima, the last general" Before Le Zhen could finish speaking, the distraught Le Cheng The slap directly slapped Le Zhen's face, and instantly knocked Le Zhen to the ground with a slap.

"Le Zhen, you idiot, what have you done?"

Le Cheng cursed.

This slap and scolding directly confused Le Zhen, who got up from the ground, and said after a few seconds: "Of course the last general is carrying out the orders of the great Sima."

Le Cheng roared angrily: "The old man has never given such an order, immediately ask your people to go back to the old man, otherwise the old man will only ask you!"

Seeing that Le Cheng's face was so gloomy that he could almost kill someone, Le Zhen was full of doubts and felt very wronged.

You were the one who ordered the troops to disperse the scholars, and now you are the one who came here to beat and curse and order the troops to withdraw. It is too difficult to be your Le Cheng clansman, right?

The grievances are grievances, Le Zhen immediately ordered his subordinates to stop doing anything, and then left quickly.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Le Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

Scholars were lying all over the square, many of them were motionless on the ground, they must have passed out, and many of them were wailing non-stop, blood was everywhere, the situation was very tragic.

If many people really died, Le Cheng suddenly yelled at the followers around him angrily: "What are you waiting for, don't you hurry up and call for a doctor?

Invite me all the best doctors in Handan City, hurry up! "

At this moment, Le Cheng knew that he probably couldn't escape this catastrophe, so he could only hope that Lin Xiangru, who entered the palace, could turn the situation around and save his life!Zhao Kingdom Miyagi.

Lin Xiangru hurriedly got off the carriage, cupped his hands at Eunuch Ling who was waiting, and said, "Eunuch Ling, the old man is asking to see the queen mother, please inform me."

Eunuch Ling smiled and said, "Wen Xinjun, please follow me."

After walking a few steps, a thought suddenly appeared in Lin Xiangru's mind, and he couldn't help but whispered: "Eunuch Ling, have Lord Wu Xin and Lord Yuan come to see the Queen Mother these two days?"

Although this Eunuch Ling was not the Miao Xian who recommended Lin Xiangru, he still had a good relationship with Lin Xiangru. He turned around and said with a smile, "To tell the truth, Lord Wen Xin, Lord Wu Xin and Lord Yuan are currently meeting with the Queen Mother."

With a bang, Lin Xiangru seemed to have something exploded in his mind.

At this moment, Lin Xiangru suddenly understood everything.

From Pang Nuan's fame at the school opening day celebration, to the ferment of public opinion in Handan City, to Le Cheng's overreaction, and now everything is set up by Lord Wu Xin!But the idiot Le Cheng didn't know anything, and stepped into Wu Xinjun's trap step by step.

If in previous political struggles Wu Xinjun charged forward more often in person, this time Wu Xinjun has become a chess player behind the scenes, controlling everything quietly, until the truth is revealed. his presence.

From killing people physically to killing people invisible, this is a kind of progress in realm, and this kind of progress makes Wu Xinjun even more terrifying and irresistible!Thinking of this, Lin Xiangru's legs suddenly became weak, and he couldn't even walk.

If everything is already in Wu Xinjun's plan, then with Wu Xinjun's character of killing with one blow if he doesn't move, is it still too late?

The eunuch Ling who was walking in front turned around and found Lin Xiangru standing there with a pale face, he couldn't help saying in surprise, "Mr. Wen Xin?"

Only then did Lin Xiangru come back to his senses, and hurriedly said, "Here we come."

Lin Xiangru clenched his fist secretly, making up his mind.

The old friend Lian Po has lost power, and it took a lot of effort to win Le Cheng over to become a new ally. This time, no matter what, Wu Xinjun can't let him go down!It's just that Wu Xinjun's general situation has been achieved now, what should we do?

Lin Xiangru thought quickly while walking.

After a while, Lin Xiangru walked into the hall.
