Chapter 219 Urgent Discussion

() Lu Ye, Gu He and Zhou Song did not follow the parade, but bypassed Taishe and took the right imperial road to go straight to the palace. Although it was about two miles away from the Baiguan Mansion, they "removed Zhou Song" one after another.

The shouts seemed to be ringing around them. Even though it was midsummer, their complexions seemed to be covered with a thick layer of frost like the twelfth lunar month in the middle of winter.

Baiguan's residence is facing Xuanyang Gate. There is a large open square in front of it. This is where Yunfeng and Zhu Daoqian debated. The right imperial road leads directly to Guangyang Gate. When the three of them arrived at the city, a Huangmen greeted them.

He stepped forward and saluted: "The Prime Minister and all the officials have been waiting at the Chancellor's desk for a long time. Please ask the three servants to go quickly."

"Huh?" The three of them looked at each other. The speed of Liu Kun's actions surprised them. However, they had already made sufficient psychological preparations. Now Wu Jun's face was completely lost. They were not afraid of scalding pigs with nothing more than boiling water.

Even if he is dismissed from office, what else can he do?

The three of them followed the yellow gate into the vermilion gate without saying a word.

When he was led to the Chancellor's Desk, it was crowded with people. Liu Kun stood at the top, his face covered with haze. Obviously, he was caught off guard by such a big commotion...

Wang Dao, Yu Liang, Huan Yi and other important ministers with foreign surnames were all shocked. For these people, more than 100,000 people gathered at the main gate of the palace and chanted slogans demanding the removal of court ministers. This was unprecedented since the beginning of the world.

Such a sensational move, if anyone had told them yesterday that people would gather for demonstrations, they would have been spat on!

After being shocked, everyone secretly estimated Yunfeng's huge influence among the people. It was obvious that this incident was planned and instigated by Yunfeng's secret agent in Jiankang, regardless of the name of anyone else.

There is no way to mobilize so many people.

The kings of the clan, headed by Nanton Wangzong, were fierce in their eyes. In their view, the people's demonstrations were tantamount to rebellion.

Lu Ye and the other three didn't say much, they just bowed their hands to Liu Kun, then came to their respective seats and sat down, with their backs straight and angry expressions on their faces.

Liu Kun asked: "Zhongzhi, how could the situation be so serious? I just walked away, how could such a big mess happen?"

"Hmph!" Zhou Song snorted angrily: "The unruly people relied on someone to back them up and refused to obey the discipline. They had no control over the court, so the three of me were transferred to the palace guards to disperse them by force. Unexpectedly, the subordinates of King Qin actually arranged their troops and used force to disperse them.

How can you resist stubbornly and be so arrogant? To protect yourself?

The prestige of the court was not lost, and I couldn't bear it any longer. Just when I was about to order a strong attack, old man Xun Song arrived. I thought he was here to mediate the matter, but the three of us were secretly relieved. After all, we were able to find out the unknown truth.

The people persuaded him to go back, which was really the best thing to do.

However, not only did he not mediate, he also relied on his status as a nobleman to support the unruly people in the academy, and he also spoke harshly to Brother Shiguang. However, this person's family background is too high, and we have nothing to do with him. We can only watch helplessly.

The ignorant people gathered more and more, and finally rushed to the palace gate!

Prime Minister, since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there has never been such an evil incident. In Song's opinion, we must not tolerate it, otherwise the court will lose face!"

"That's right!" King Zong of Nanton followed and said: "The punishment must be severe and severe. The army should be sent out of the palace to suppress it immediately. The leader should show his head to the public, and the followers should be exiled to Lingnan. If there is a little appeasement this time, the unruly people will not

If you don't appreciate it, you will think that the imperial court is weak, and the fierce flames will become more and more arrogant. From now on, everyone will gather together to threaten the imperial court. Wouldn't the imperial court be held hostage by the common people? Please give the order immediately, prime minister, and don't hesitate."

"Eh~~ That's inappropriate!" Bian Yi waved his hand: "Since the academy opened its doors, it has never caused any trouble. Instead, it teaches people how to read and write for free. It also often organizes students to go into the private sector to help orphans, the elderly and the young, which has won unanimous praise.

There must be a reason for this gathering at the palace gate. May I ask Zhongzhi, why did you want to close down the academy?"

Zhou Song said coldly: "How can we not be banned for spreading evil and heresy? Although the court issued an edict two years ago to allow teaching, you all know what happened. It was nothing more than a military emergency and coercion by the King of Qin.

Since I was appointed by the Prime Minister as a Doctor of Imperial Studies, I cannot allow him to poison me.

World, please think about it, what are the things taught in the academy? It is to break the roots of our scholars! I understand that what I do today may be scolded and ridiculed by the world, but I, Zhou Song, have a clear conscience.

The plan for future generations has to be sealed! How dare you turn a blind eye?"

As soon as Zhou Song said these words, he immediately placed himself on the moral high ground. Lu Ye and Gu He both secretly gave a thumbs up. Even Liu Kun's eyes were filled with wonder and he re-examined Zhou Song. In fact,

He originally planned to push Zhou Song out of the public anger, but at this time, he felt a little shaken in his heart.

Not only the above three people, but everyone present also deeply believed that they were all from noble families, and no one was willing to give up their immediate benefits. They all understood that for the court and the noble families, the academy was a big star.

cancer!

Although Yunfeng has mentioned more than once that power will be decentralized in the future, that is a matter in the future and is full of variables that are difficult to estimate. How can there be the comfort and certainty of firmly holding the interests in hand? But they are worried about Yunfeng's

Without strength, we can only sit back and watch the academy gradually expand its influence among the people, and there is nothing we can do.

Today, Zhou Song is acting as a pawn. This is a result that everyone likes to see. However, the way of doing things is worthy of discussion. If the academy is chosen by force, can Yunfeng swallow this breath? Will he be inspired to become vicious?

What the nobles need is for Yunfeng and Liu Kun to maintain a relative balance, not to offend either party, or to help one party defeat the other.

Everyone was thinking secretly, but Nandun Wangzong said angrily: "Everyone, listen to what is being clamored outside? Has it ever happened before? What does the appointment of someone as an official in the court have to do with being promoted to a commoner?

If it continues to develop, wouldn't it mean that all the emperor's heirs would interfere? Prime Minister, please immediately summon troops to suppress it. Without blood, some people will never know the pain!"

Director Wang quickly stopped him and said: "Your Highness, there is no need to be so extreme. This matter must be handled with caution. The Prime Minister has just taken charge of the Central Committee and sent soldiers to suppress the people on the second day. How will the people of the world view the Prime Minister?"

As he said that, Wang Guangdao bowed his hand to Liu Kun: "Both "Jizhong Annals" (Bamboo Annals) and "Historical Records" contain: The Zhou people's rebellion (the people's riot) began with King Li's high-pressure tyranny, and the feudal

Ren Zhikou suppressed the people of the country, but the people invaded the palace. King Li fled in a hurry along with his relatives and fled along the Weishui River to Hu (today's Huozhou City, Shanxi Province), where he died of illness fourteen years later.

When Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he committed numerous evil deeds, one of which was the wanton killing of the people of Luoyang, and was eventually beheaded by Lu Bu. From this, it can be seen that killing the people of the capital was an ominous sign. Please forgive me for speaking harshly, but the Prime Minister entered the imperial court to assist.

Do you not want to be compared with Dong Zhuo in the future? This matter should be handled with caution, and it is better to channel rather than suppress."

These words spoke to Liu Kun's heart, otherwise he would not have seized the opportunity and fled, so he asked: "According to the opinion of the great Situ, how should we guide him?"

Director Wang said calmly: "Although it is true that the academy was established under the pressure of the King of Qin, it has become a fait accompli and has a good reputation among the people. If it is banned suddenly, there will inevitably be fierce opposition. It is better to maintain the status quo for the time being and make another plan.
