Did you know that he didn't have a nun when you were lying under Zhu Zi's bed?

The scene was chaotic.

A dozen Jinyiwei quickly protected the emperor and the prince, and their hands holding knives couldn't help but tense up.

The crowd was swarming, some squeezed to the middle of the venue, and some retreated to the outside of the venue. In the shoving and pushing, some people almost fell to the ground.

Scolding, praising... It was as chaotic as the clash of knives, forks and plates at a banquet.

I don't know who finally couldn't control himself and threw a slippery fish at Zhu Bailu, and I don't know where he got it from. The fish body "slapped" Zhu Bailu's face, and the fishy smell rushed into his nose.

Zhu Bailu, a gentle man, had never seen such a battle before. He wanted to retreat, but he was too stiff to move. He could only cover his red nose and look at the mess in panic.

"Bang--"

Prime Minister Dou took out his musket and fired a shot into the air.

The scene suddenly became quiet. Everyone seemed to be paused, staring at Prime Minister Dou in a daze.

The old man slowly put away his gun with a gentle smile on his face: "We are a very well-behaved family in the Dou family. We usually don't use muskets. You should also be well-behaved, okay?"

Most people nodded stiffly.

Prime Minister Dou also breathed a sigh of relief.

If something went wrong, he, as the referee, would be blamed.

"Okay." Former Prime Minister Dou said slowly: "Whatever you want to say, whatever you want to ask, come one by one, slowly. Is that okay?"

Everyone's stiff bodies relaxed at this moment, and they hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!"

Someone seized the opportunity and asked in one breath: "Xu Shentong, you said that Chengzi said, 'No one above the rank of doctor can remarry.' Is this true?"

Xu Yanmiao looked at the system: "It is true."

There is a gossip in the system. Two great scholars debated this sentence, and the debate ended with one of them having an idea: "Your father married your stepmother, how dare you argue with me that this sentence is correct."

So now he can look at the gossip and say: "This sentence comes from the Henan Cheng Family's Testament."

The person who asked the question was shocked: "The Henan Cheng Family's Testament has a total of 25 volumes. You are really patient and have read it all?!"

Many people present have never flipped through it. At most, they flipped through the annotations, collections, and brief explanations of Chengzi's thoughts summarized by great scholars. For books that are not tested in the imperial examinations, who has the leisure time to slowly flip through and read them slowly.

Xu Yanmiao said calmly: "This sentence comes from the 22nd volume of the Henan Cheng Family's Testament. You can flip it yourself."

Tongxin was very surprised when he saw this: "It is not easy for young people in their twenties to be patient and finish reading the Henan Cheng Family's Testament."

Quan Yingzhang coughed.

Because in the next breath, Xu Yanmiao said in his heart: [It is impossible to finish reading it, so I can only copy other people's arrangement directly. ]

But people outside the Beijing officials did not know about this, and they just respected Xu Shentong. Some people blushed and began to blame themselves for their superficial research in recent years, which was not as good as young people who had just entered the age of 18.

"It's time to calm down and read books carefully." Some people sighed.

But there were more people who were thinking about protecting their own interests first.

Another student jumped out: "Since Xu Shentong understands Zhu Xi and Cheng Zi, he should know that they themselves cannot do what is in their own doctrines, right? Since they themselves cannot do it, how can we say that their doctrines represent ethical norms."

Xu Yanmiao blinked: "For example?"

Another scholar came out and said in a loud voice: "For example, Zhu Xi said that women should be chaste and self-respecting, but he seduced a nun to be his concubine! And he had no shame and even brought a nun around the city!"

"!!!"

At least half of the people became alert.

The next thing that followed was to curse the scholar:

"What a beast that is growing up!"

"How rude!"

"How could Zhu Zi have ever said such a thing!"

"Rice bag, wine barrel, meat bag, your head is full of these dirty things!"

"Nonsense!"

Everyone scolded him, but it was visible to the naked eye that one or two of them paid more attention to Xu Yanmiao than to the previous debate, with their faces full of curiosity.

Talk about this! We love to hear this!

Especially the officials in Beijing.

Ahem, Xiao Bai Ze can really see the truth!

They have been curious about this for a long time.

Even Quan Yingzhang, who is old, couldn't help but lean forward a lot.

Tong Xin was very puzzled: "Do you still believe this?"

"I don't believe it." Quan Yingzhang said righteously: "This must be the slander against Zhu Xi by his political enemies when he was an official in the court. But it is not enough to just disbelieve it. I need to listen to the details and analyze it carefully."

Tong Xin: ... Is that so?

Ahem. Then he also watched the excitement... No, he also analyzed it. Although he targeted Zhu Xi, he did not go so low. If possible, help him clarify it.

＊

Xu Yanmiao flipped through the gossip system: "Are you talking about the six major charges that Zhu Xi was impeached by his political enemies because he was involved in party disputes?"

The scholar: "Don't talk about this, just tell me, did Zhu Xi take a nun as a concubine!"

Xu Yanmiao: "No."

"Ah..."

The prince said regretfully: "It turns out that he didn't."

Yes. Zhu Zi didn't do this!

The crowd was disappointed.

They thought they would hear something exciting.

The scholar asked: "Where is the evidence? Did you know that he didn't have a nun by hiding under Zhu Zi's bed?" "

!!!"

The crowd immediately perked up.

Yes! Where is the evidence!

Xu Yanmiao: "In Zhu Xi's time, people often wrote notes and novels. From the prime minister to the common people, everyone was keen on it. There are true stories and rumors in the notes, but no note novel mentions the story between Zhu Xi and the nun. He was parading the nun around the city and no one mentioned it. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?"

Either this matter is completely false, not even a rumor in the market, or no one dares to talk about it.

The scholar retorted to Xu Yanmiao: "Notebooks? How do you know there are none? Have you read all the notes from Zhu Xi's time?"

Xu Yanmiao lied without blinking: "Yes, I have read them all."

The scholar didn't believe it at all: "You said you have read them all? Then tell me, what are the rumors about the famous painter Lu Qingcheng who painted "Peony Picture" in Dongchu?"

——Zhu Xi was from Dongchu.

Xu Yanmiao took a look at the gossip system and was shocked: "Is this your ancestor?"

The scholar heard the extremely shocked gasps of the officials in the capital, and smiled with pride: "Yes, it is my ancestor."

Xu Lang shouted: [Wow!]

The prince whispered: "Wow..."

There are still people rushing to pit their own ancestors!

The old emperor sneered mercilessly: "You are asking your ancestors, you are not asking yourself, what is there to be afraid of?"

Even if he found out that his ancestors had a nun, slept with his daughter-in-law, and were disrespectful to his mother and made him eat stale rice in the warehouse...what does that have to do with him? It is his ancestors' reputation that will be ruined.

"This is the first time I've gossiped in public... I mean, I'm talking about these rumors!"

Xu Yanmiao was eager to try: "The note you mentioned is about a story about your ancestor who was tricked by a honey trap and used 'palace guard sand'. He mistakenly thought he had taken the girl's virginity and wanted to take responsibility, but was cheated out of a thousand taels - is that the story?"

The scholar was stunned: "What did you say?"

Xu Yanmiao thought for a while: "Or, could it be that he wrote a memoir, recording that the right prime minister of the dynasty married his granddaughter to the son of the left prime minister as his principal wife, and that he would be cheated by the left prime minister as soon as he got married?" Be careful not to write that she was a concubine, which would force the character of the right prime minister to fall below the lowest limit. For hundreds of years, when people mentioned this matter, they all said: Oh! That villain who was obviously the prime minister, but he was servile and flattering to another prime minister, and even gave his own granddaughter to someone else as a concubine. Is this what you want to hear? "

Or the scholar: "Wait! What are you talking about!"

The shocked eyes of the scholar were full of words: "Whose notes recorded these two things! Aren't you making up rumors in public!"

Xu Lang: "..."

[Ah this...]

Xu Lang was stunned, and a faint melancholy rose in his heart.

[It's over, I accidentally said it. What should I do.]

The king and ministers of Daxia: "Oh!"

It's actually true!

For a moment, they didn't know whether to complain about this great painter who actually believed in such a thing as Gongsha, or whether they should feel sorry for the right prime minister who had been "groveling" for hundreds of years.

Forget it, let's feel sorry for Xiao Bai Ze who let the cat out of the bag.

Xu Yanmiao nodded affirmatively to the scholar: "There is this note, I have seen it. I am telling the truth."

The scholar immediately questioned: "Where did you see it? Where is the book?"

Xu Yanmiao weighed his words: "Um... in..."

A voice came: "In the library of the palace."

Xu Yanmiao and the scholar turned around in surprise, and saw Quan Yingzhang slowly walking towards the center of the venue.

As they walked, the other party said, "I guarantee with my reputation that the two things Xu Yanmiao said were what he really saw ." Xu Yanmiao looked at Quan Yingzhang with emotion : "Mr. Quan ...
