Chapter 810: Clamor

Early in the morning, accompanied by a burst of loud cock, Qingzhou City seemed to come alive.
Some wealthy people in the houses brought their briquettes to the yard and started boiling water for cooking, while those who were reluctant to buy briquettes had long smoke.
The streets of Qingzhou also became lively. Vendors set up their stoves and sold biscuits, fried dough sticks, and tofu to the merchants coming and going. The food stalls along the street were full of people.
In this noise, the voice of the newsboy rang as usual.
Merchants and scholars on the street are accustomed to buying today's newspapers to understand the changes that are taking place in Dayu Country from the top. After all, because of the obstruction of news, they rarely know what is happening outside.
"Astronomy, what is this?"
The Dou Nao stall in front of the Chamber of Commerce was full of businessmen, and the content of the newspaper quickly attracted their attention.
"The earth is round and revolves around the sun. There are nine planets in the solar system..." The young businessman read the contents of the newspaper word by word, and the other businessmen who ate all pricked their ears to listen.
"There is no Chang'e on the moon, the shadow on the surface is just the moon sea, there is no life on the moon..."
With the words of the young businessmen, more and more people were attracted. They stopped and listened, each of them widened their eyes.
"There are no gods on the moon?" a passerby exclaimed.
The businessmen looked at each other, and an older businessman said to the young businessman, "Han Zheng, what does this newspaper really say?"
"It can't be wrong. I have read for a few years. I still recognize this word." Han Zheng sighed. "This Qingzhou Daily is crazy. If there are no gods on the moon, the sun is not a golden crow, and there are no gods in the sky. Isn't this emperor no longer the true king?"
As soon as these words came out, the older businessman stretched out his leg and kicked Han Zheng: "You kid is looking for death? Shut up."
The older businessman was Han Zheng's uncle. Shan Han Zheng not only didn't shut his mouth, but said: "It is clear in the newspaper that this means, and it is said that the newspaper was reviewed by the emperor. This may be what the emperor meant."
The merchants were silent, and soon a merchant said tremblingly: "This is probably going to happen."
Everyone, look at me, and I look at you, one by one, no longer discussing this issue, but eating silently and waiting for changes.
Compared to the discussion on the streets, the Confucian scholars in Qingzhou City have already exploded, and a group of Confucian scholars hurried to a house in Qingzhou City with newspapers. ‘
And the word Ge is written on the plaque above the house.
In the courtyard, an old man was practicing Wuxingquan, with a leisurely and elegant appearance. He didn't seem to care when these scholars came in.
Although Qingzhou University is gaining momentum in Qingzhou, a large number of Confucian students in Dayu are still alive in the thinking of the old age. They have studied hard for ten years. They are unwilling to start over and have been seeking to restore the imperial examination.
The headed Confucian student named Yu Yuankun looked at the old man and said,
Old Ge, when is it time for you to calm down, now the emperor is going to destroy the foundation of our Confucianism, you and Master Cui Hao will never come forward. There is no way for the thousands of Confucian students in the country of Da Yu to survive."
The old man called Master Ge by a group of Confucian scholars is no one else, but Ge Yiren.
One year after King Zhao was expelled from Chang'an, he never received the appointment from the imperial court. He really couldn’t help but brought his family to Qingzhou to explore the way. At the same time, because of his reputation as a great Confucianist, he entered Qingzhou City was greeted by the Confucian students, and for this reason, the Confucian School was reopened to give lectures.
"The emperor is not in a hurry. What are you eager for? Confucianism has been passed on for thousands of years. Since the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has been carried forward, and it has survived the five dynasties. How can you understand the reasons for this? You will go back for the time being and I will enter the palace. Advise the emperor." Ge Yiren's eyes flickered.
When the Confucian scholars heard the words, they all showed excitement, and Yu Yuankun said: "So I rely on Ge Lao to come forward."
Ge Yiren nodded, and said to the housekeeper beside him: "Send the scholars back."
After the Confucian students left, two people came around from behind the rockery in the yard, it was Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang.
Glancing at the direction the Confucian students are leaving, Ge Yiren said: "Old Ge, this group of Confucian scholars do not have much skills but they are very noisy. If you walk too close to them, you will suffer from a pond fish disaster."
"Yes, this time the emperor is so generous, targeting these stubborn Confucian scholars. If we walk too close to them, I am afraid that the three of us will never become official."
Ge Yiren stroked his beard lightly. After reading today's newspaper, he had already thought about it. He said: "Today's matter is the opportunity for you and me to be the most powerful ministers. Haven't the two of you seen it through?"
"What's the answer to this?" Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang were puzzled.
Ge Yiren said: "The sage is extremely human today. This celestial theory is to destroy my Confucian foundation, but at the same time it denies that he is the real son of the emperor. The reason why he dares to be so Meng Lang is only that there is no authority and no one can Shake his throne, so now it’s time for Confucianism to change. If you and I can seize the second chance, you will surely become prosperous, and at least it will be a lifetime of wealth."
"Confucianism is changing." Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang glanced at each other. As great Confucians, they knew the history of Confucianism very well.
Throughout the dynasties, Confucianism was born without subordination to the imperial power and served as an instrument for the imperial power to govern the world. It is precisely because of this that Confucianism can survive for thousands of years.
When Xiao Ming ascended the throne, they mistakenly thought that the Dayu Dynasty would still follow the old system, but now it seems that the emperor's ascension to the throne is tantamount to changing the dynasty.
If so, they need to think about it.
"Ge Lao really has a long-term vision, and neither of me can compare. In this case, we should see the emperor together." Ni Kuang said.
Yu Zhiyong also suddenly realized, he said: "Extremely yes, extremely yes."
"Okay, so I will ask the butler to prepare a carriage~EbookFREE.me~ The three of you and me beg to see the emperor outside the palace. In my opinion, the present-day sage is so smart that he will definitely meet us."
Ge Yiren said loudly.
After all, the three took a carriage and headed to the palace south of the city.
They were stopped by the guard outside the palace gate, and after a briefing, they were allowed to enter.
The three were overjoyed, and followed Qian Dafu to the palace, and the three excitedly looked at the facilities in the palace along the way.
It has been more than a year for them to be placed outside the court, but now they are secretly determined to seize this opportunity.
Following Qian Dafu, they arrived in front of the Yushufang in a short while, when Qian Dafu let the three of them in.
Ge Yiren tidied up his clothes and entered the Imperial Study Room with Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang cautiously.
At this time, Xiao Ming was standing with his back to them. After they asked for peace, Xiao Ming slowly turned around.
