In front of the Marquis' Mansion, a group of people were cursing at the gate.
The voices of those who spoke became louder and louder, and the force of their criticism became stronger and stronger.
But in a nutshell, it's just the same few sentences over and over again.
What about Fang Zheng's apology, restoration of the old system, respect for ancestral laws and the state system, abolition of science, abolition of scientific doctorates and so on.
Fang Zhengyi stood not far away holding Fang Chenyu, watching the group of people shooting at the empty Marquis' Mansion which was uninhabited.
I don’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Fang Chenyu tilted his head, looked at Fang Zhengyi and asked, "Dad, why are so many people targeting you?"
Fang Zhengyi looked at the Houfu and said, "Because of different philosophies, did you hear what they were saying?"
"They say they want to maintain the ancestral system and abolish science, but we also learn science in class. What's wrong with science?"
"That is a science, a method, and has nothing to do with right or wrong." Fang Zhengyi explained patiently, and then asked, "Do you think they are right?"
"No, my ancestors were human beings, and so am I. If my ancestors can change, then of course I can change too. Since humans can change, it seems that everything can change." Fang Chenyu said as he thought.
"Yes, everything can change. Then what kind of people do you think would ignore reality, ignore logic, and even do whatever it takes to protect their ancestors or something?"
Fang Chenyu fell into deep thought, and after a long while hesitantly said: "It seems that only servants protect their masters like this..."
Fang Zhengyi smiled with relief: "That's right, only slaves will defend their masters without asking for reasons and without principles. They are slaves of their thoughts, so they don't care about anything and just want to defeat the opposite side. When you grow up, you must not be like them. You must study hard to accumulate the basics, and then observe carefully, think with your brain, and carefully draw your own conclusions. You can even try to refute your old ideas countless times in your mind, so as not to become a mediocre person."
"You have to keep an eye on them and remember to stay rational at all times, otherwise you will be taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives."
Fang Chenyu said: "I remember Dad, but they are scolding you, aren't you angry?"
Fang Zhengyi sneered, "Angry? Anger will make you lose your wisdom. Dad has always done the right thing. They are going against the tide of history. Dad is not afraid of what others say!"
Fang Chenyu asked puzzledly: "What is the historical trend?"
"All the strongest people in ancient and modern times would ask themselves a question when they were at their peak: what is the trend of history? But in the end, only two or three people can live to see the answer, but this question does not exist for my father."
Fang Chenyu raised his head again, his eyes full of questions.
Fang Zhengyi smiled mysteriously: "I am the trend!"
Fang Chenyu shook his head to express his confusion, but he understood one thing.
His father is always right.
"Dad, why don't you find someone to beat them away? How can you let them keep cursing and making trouble?"
Fang Zhengyi patiently advised, "Don't use violence lightly. It is a last resort. The conflict between them and Dad is not a conflict of interest, but a difference in ideology. They are not evil people, so the most important thing to deal with them is to learn to reason. You must learn to be patient and reason with others in the future, and even listen to what the enemy says. If they don't listen, think of other ways."
"Don't start talking about fighting. That's not good. You've seen enough for today. Go back to bed early. You have to go to school tomorrow."
As soon as Fang Zheng finished speaking, he casually arranged for a Jinyiwei to escort Fang Chenyu home.
After Fang Chenyu left, another Jinyiwei came up to him and whispered, "Sir, the palace urgently summoned you."
Fang Zhengyi said calmly: "Has the leader found out?"
Jinyiwei said: "Not yet, but we have noted down a few people who are very capable of inciting. We will have results in a day or two, but what should we do with these people now?"
what to do?
Fang Zheng's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Come here, a group of people, beat anyone you see, as long as it doesn't hurt their bones or internal organs, beat them to death!"
"If the tiger doesn't show its might, you think I'm a sick cat! You dare to act wildly in my territory? You don't even know to pick the soft persimmon to squeeze!"
The Jinyiwei was shocked: "Ah? These are scholars from all over the world. If we use violence, won't it intensify the conflict? This will damage your prestige..."
Fang Zheng glanced at him and said, "Use your brain. Let's have our subordinates change clothes and disguise themselves as gangsters. Well... let's say it was done by Sun Xiaochuan. Then, let them use Sun Xiaochuan's name to do gangster things in Beijing for a few days. Then, we can publicize it in the newspapers and no one will associate it with us."
"The next day, see who jumps the most among these people. That person will be the leader. Find out the truth and report back to me."
"I'm going to the palace now. Be careful when you beat people up later. Don't hurt anyone."
"Yes! I will do it right away!"

The readers' excitement continues.
There were many people gathered around Zhou Maoxue, having detailed conversations in private.
Obviously, Zhou Maoxue's eloquence and the demeanor revealed by his background impressed many candidates.
Zhou Maoxue has been getting better and better since his public speech, and he is able to win over the crowd with his tactful manner.
As they were chatting animatedly, a group of people appeared on the street corner not far away, drunkenly carrying jars of wine and coming to the outside of the Marquis of Jianye's Mansion.
The crowd that was originally discussing animatedly immediately quieted down and stared at these uninvited guests cautiously.
Seeing another opportunity to show off, Zhou Maocai stepped out from the crowd and asked loudly, "What are you all here for?"
The drunk leader didn't even look at him and shouted, "I'm drinking on the other street, you sissy guys are so loud, shout at your mother! You're disturbing my drinking, so shut up!"
It turned out to be a group of vulgar hooligans!
A group of scholars immediately became agitated and denounced the incident.
"How can you talk like that?"
"Do you know who we are?"
"Leave this place quickly! Don't say I didn't warn you!"
Zhou Maoxue frowned, feeling something was wrong: "All those present today are candidates from all over Dajing who came to Beijing to take the imperial examination. I advise you all to keep your mouths shut and do what you need to do. Everyone should go their separate ways to avoid getting into trouble."
The drunkard laughed, "Fuck! You bitches are still serving it? Who dares to curse again!"
"What's wrong with scolding you! You have a mother who gave birth to you..."
"Fuck! Brothers, fight!"
The leading drunkard gave an order, and the people behind him rushed into the crowd carrying jars of wine.
The movement was so swift that the weak scholars present were knocked over.
The scene fell into chaos, with wailing sounds everywhere. Zhou Maoxue's hair stood on end, and he immediately realized something. He screamed, "My fellow classmates! This is Fang Zhengyi secretly hiring someone to take revenge on us! Don't be afraid, we have many people, and we can all resist! As long as we unite..."
Before he could say a word, the drunk leader grabbed him by the collar and hit him in the face with a jar of wine in his other hand.
This blow made him see stars.
Then, the drunkard laughed grimly with a mouth full of alcohol: "What are you talking about? If you see me on the street next time, remember to be polite. Your grandfather's name is Sun Xiaochuan!"
