Many people forced a smile at Fang Zheng, then quickly turned their heads away, indicating that they didn't want to pay any attention to him.
Yang Yingcai's eyes were red as he stared at Fang Zhengyi.
This bastard is going to open a girls' school and has been advertising it all over the newspapers. His only granddaughter is now clamoring to go to school all day long.
Isn’t this ruining the family tradition?
Not only did he refuse to agree but he also cried. If it weren't for this guy, how could such a disaster have happened in his family for no reason?
The Yang family has always passed down poetry and literature, but now their descendants have to beg and beg to get along with the common people.
Fortunately, His Majesty gave me a chance to have an open debate with Fang Zheng today. I will defeat him in no time!
Fang Zhengyi also looked Yang Yingcai up and down.
This guy has been at odds with him since he entered the court.
Essentially, there is no major conflict of interest with him.
He is just an old zombie who will bite people if they don't agree with his ideas.
I don't know why he suddenly went crazy this time. I've already resigned from my job, but you're still so disrespectful to me?
It looks like he's going to scold me today!
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng bowed and said with a smile, "Lord Yang, long time no see."
"I dare not meet him. Captain Fang was once an emperor. If I were to meet such a young talent, I would feel ashamed of myself." Yang Yingcai said indifferently.
Many people covered their mouths and looked at the two of them.
Fang Zheng's face froze and he couldn't help cursing in his heart.
This old bastard, he always brings up things that are not relevant to the topic!
Seeing a hint of sarcasm on Yang Yingcai's face, Fang Zheng smiled innocently and said, "Master Yang is quite self-aware at this age."
"You...!" Yang Yingcai widened his eyes and flicked his sleeves angrily.
I almost forgot. It’s been a while since we’ve faced each other in a row. This bastard is so shameless.
"Do I have any grudge against Lord Yang? When I heard that I was opening a school, you were the first one to oppose it. Although I, Fang Zhengyi, have no official position, I still have the title of the son-in-law of the emperor. Lord Yang couldn't help but come out to step on me?" Fang Zhengyi said lightly.
Yang Yingcai said with disdain: "You call this a school? Captain Fang, since you know that you are the son-in-law of a royal family, you still openly recruit girls from the public to enter Dongjiao University, causing people to be distracted and girls to not want to wait for marriage and raise children. Is this reasonable? "
As he spoke, Yang Yingcai's voice gradually became higher.
The people around were discussing in low voices, with some nodding from time to time.
Fang Zhengyi looked around and saw that many people were waiting to see him laugh. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I think you are determined to go against me. There is no need to waste your breath here. Let's go to His Majesty and make it clear who is right and who is wrong."
Having said that, Yang Yingcai no longer held his temper. He sneered and whispered, "I want to go against you. How about that? I will never allow you to undermine the discipline of the court!"
"Not to mention this school, even the matter of pacifying Wanxian County's merchants, I will not let you succeed."
"Don't think that I didn't see that Yang Fengfan is also your man, right?"
It turned out that this old guy had placed people near Xinzhang County near Pingwan County.
Fang Zheng glanced at him and said, "You can see why you didn't say it at the time. Yang Fengfan was pushed forward by one of your own people. Why are you pretending to be so smart?"
"Hmph!" Yang Yingcai's old face turned red and he turned his back.
......
"Your Majesty, there is a quarrel outside the Meridian Gate." Guo Tianyang reported in a low voice.
"Fang Zhengyi?"
"Captain Fang and Lord Yang, the two are really at loggerheads with each other."
Emperor Jing was drinking tea, and just as the teacup reached his lips, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"You are so busy. Let them in. I want to see how they quarrel in front of me."
...
The ministers entered the palace and returned to their familiar working environment.
Fang Zhengyi couldn't help feeling a little emotional. He looked up and saw Emperor Jing sitting on the table, staring at him.
Judging from the look in his eyes, he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, so he could only smile naively...
Seeing his appearance, Emperor Jing glanced away and looked away.
This beast is really able to keep his composure. He has been back in Beijing for such a long time but has never come to the palace to pay respects.
It seems that he really doesn't want to be an official. He deserves a beating!
When the ministers finished their questioning, Emperor Jing said, "Yesterday, Yang Qing impeached Fang Zhengyi for opposing Dongjiao University's plan to open a girls' school. Fang Zhengyi is here today, so why don't you discuss the right and wrong?"
Yang Yingcai said immediately: "As I said yesterday, although the signs of girls' admission to school are just beginning, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the future. In addition, as the son-in-law of the emperor, Captain Fang is also a member of the royal family. If this move continues, I am afraid that the world will laugh at it and the royal dignity will be lost."
Fang Zhengyi said calmly, "Your Majesty, Dongjiao University is my private property. Since it is my private property, I have the right to dispose of it. Whether the students are male or female, it does not violate any law of our Dajing. What Lord Yang said is pure nonsense and subjective. To put it more seriously, this is naked slander!"
"Besides, the Princess is in charge of the Girls' School of Dongjiao University! Zhao Linglong has joined the school as her reputation grows. Ordinary people are eager to join, so how could she be ridiculed by the world? I'm afraid that Lord Yang is in a high position and has long lost touch with the people's feelings."
Yang Yingcai raised his eyebrows and said, "Subjective assumptions? Although Dongjiao University is your private property, it is well known that it is one with the Royal Academy of Sciences. I would like to ask everyone in the room, who doesn't think so?"
"Speaking of the sentiments of the people, Commander Fang only understands the sentiments of the people in the capital, right? All the dignitaries in the court are role models for scholars all over the world. Their ideas represent the sentiments of the people in our great country, from north to south, and from all over the country!"
The ministers nodded in agreement.
Li Yuanzhao sat on it with an expectant look on his face.
The situation today is completely unfavorable to Lao Fang. I wonder what he will come up with to break the deadlock.
Seeing that the situation was favorable, Yang Yingcai continued to talk: "Not only that, the Banshan Daily is also under the name of Captain Fang, right? For several consecutive days, you have been spreading reports in the capital to promote the custom of abandoning babies, causing unrest among the people."
"Then I can't help but ask! It's understandable that these news were released on one day, and two days is also reasonable, but what about the third and fourth days? How do you explain it?"
"What is your purpose in posting this? What is your motive? Who are you satirizing? What do you want to imply?"
Faced with Yang Yingcai's four questions, Fang Zheng remained silent...
Good man, isn't it trying to imply to others that you are doing harm to the court through your words and deeds?
This old thief is just trying to disgust himself.
I, Fang Zhengyi, am a die-hard patriot. Besides, all the news has been reviewed by the palace. Why would I be afraid of your tricks?!
Emperor Jing's expression couldn't help but become a little strange, and he looked at Fang Zhengyi curiously.
Although he didn't take Yang Yingcai's words seriously, he was indeed curious as to why the Mid-Levels newspaper had published so many news stories about abandoned babies in recent days.
After briefly organizing his thoughts, Fang Zhengyi said, "Your Majesty, the matter of abandoned babies is actually closely related to my intention to open a girls' school."
