As he walked forward, Wei Zhongxian said, "How disgraceful!"
"Look at you all, you are all scholars. Where has the civility of scholars gone? You actually fight here? You are unworthy of the title of scholars. The soldiers in the army are better than you!"
Wei Zhongxian's words were very rude, but everyone present had already been arrested and no one stood up to object.
The current situation is very complicated. If anyone yells at Wei Zhongxian, he will definitely be arrested.
The fight just happened, it was just a fight between students; if we fight with Wei Zhongxian now, we will be inseparable from this matter.
So although the students glared at each other, no one stood up to resist.
Wei Zhongxian walked over and Cui Chengxiu hurriedly followed.
The two men walked past the detained students and went straight into Shoushan Academy.
There were also students fighting inside Shoushan Academy, but they have now been separated.
When Wei Zhongxian and his companion walked in from outside, Shoushan Academy was in chaos, with broken chairs, knocked-over tables, and even students lying on the ground wailing.
This place doesn't look like a place for teaching and educating people.
Wei Zhongxian had a dark face and cursed in his heart as he walked inside.
Things have turned out like this. The initial goal has changed from arresting people to cleaning up the mess and appeasing the students. Is this what our East Factory should do?
But Wei Zhongxian also knew that he could not care less about other things, but he could not care less about Cui Chengxiu, who was one of his few subordinates in the court and had a very high status. He could not let Cui Chengxiu fall.
He is the person in charge of the reform of the Royal Academy this time. If he fails, then things will be troublesome.
I also want to use this opportunity to recruit more people. So I can't let him fall. Things here must be appeased as soon as possible. And the matter must be resolved perfectly. Otherwise, it will give people an excuse to attack Cui Chengxiu.
Although he was filled with anger, Wei Zhongxian still tried hard to suppress his temper.
"Go and find Zhong Yuzheng and Ruan Dacheng." Wei Zhongxian said to Cui Chengxiu.
Cui Chengxiu nodded and went to look for someone with a dark face. In his heart, Cui Chengxiu also cursed Zhong Yuzheng and the other two.
What do you two do for a living? How did you end up like this?
Zhong Yuzheng, aren't you a senior? Don't you have a high reputation among the scholars? How did you come up with something like this?
And that Ruan Dacheng, everything he said made sense, but what was the result? Not only did he not get things done, but he also caused such a big mess. It's really nonsense!
When he walked to the back, Cui Chengxiu finally saw Zhong Yuzheng and the other person.
The two hid in a room with the door closed from the outside.
Cui Chengxiu twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, walked forward to open the door, and let the two out.
Zhong Yuzheng and the other man had their hair disheveled and their clothes were covered in dirt. Ruan Dacheng even had a black eye.
He was obviously beaten.
"Lord Cui, you are here!" Ruan Dacheng said excitedly after seeing Cui Chengxiu.
Ruan Dacheng had lost his composure and looked extremely embarrassed. After seeing Cui Chengxiu, he was even more excited.
The savior has finally arrived!
Zhong Yuzheng, who was standing at the side, was shaking all over, and he kept repeating, "How shameful! How shameful!"
Looking at the two people's embarrassed appearance, Cui Chengxiu didn't curse, but held it in his heart. The most important thing was to find out the reason and solve this matter perfectly.
No matter how impatient Cui Chengxiu was, there was nothing he could do.
"You two come with me." Cui Chengxiu said.
After saying this, Cui Chengxiu turned around and walked forward, leading the way for the two of them.
Although Cui Chengxiu wanted to ask now, Wei Zhongxian was over there, so he couldn't ask first.
The three men walked out and soon saw Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian also saw the three people. Seeing that there were two embarrassed men following Cui Chengxiu on both sides, Wei Zhongxian knew their identities.
Seeing the miserable looks of Zhong Yuzheng and the other man, Wei Zhongxian frowned.
"How did it become like this? Where is this place? Why did the fighting start?" Wei Zhongxian asked.
Zhong Yuzheng and the others naturally also saw Wei Zhongxian, and they knew who this person was from his clothes.
Ruan Dacheng then took a step forward, bowed, and said, "Thank you so much for saving me, Governor! You came just in time. If you had come a little later, who knows what might have happened!"
Wei Zhongxian glanced at Ruan Dacheng and still felt impatient.
At this moment, who has the heart to talk to you about this?
Wei Zhongxian then asked directly: "Stop talking about this useless nonsense. Now tell me, what exactly happened?"
Ruan Dacheng quickly said, "This incident was an accident. Originally, the scholars gathered here and everyone was relatively peaceful. I don't know how someone came up with the idea of opposing the imperial academy reforms, saying that they were stifling learning, not to mention preventing the spread of the sages' teachings."
"They feel that the imperial court is suppressing scholars and is unfair to them. Therefore, Shoushan Academy shouldn't oppose what the academy teaches, but rather oppose its reform. If the academy doesn't reform and simply maintains the status quo, that would naturally be perfect."
"Some even suggested that if the Royal Academy wanted to build a new academy, it should do so on its own. Why suppress other academies? This is a case of ganging up on dissidents, and there are treacherous officials in the court who are excluding dissidents!"
