Journey to the West from Daqin

Li Jue nodded, and walked out arm in arm with Kong Jie, followed by Junshou Liu in a daze.

He didn't seem to be able to react yet, but Li Jue managed to persuade Kong Jie, or rather coerced and lured Kong Jie into bowing his head!

It seemed simple, but it seemed that no one could do it except Li Jue.

Because the others were more than threatening but not fatal enough to shake Kong Jie's mind.

Li Jue did it.

out the door.

When everyone saw Li Jue and old master Kong Jie coming out arm in arm, followed by the sheriff and a group of great scholars, everyone was talking and laughing, talking and laughing at Yan Yan, they were all dumbfounded.

Just as Kong Jie was about to speak, Li Jue spoke first, and said, "Everyone, go back. The old master is grateful for the long distance between heaven and earth, Ming Xiao Emperor's good intentions, and everyone's benevolence and righteousness, so I decided to go out to write a sacrificial rite."

The people were in an uproar and looked at each other.

They all asked what happened and why Kong Jie agreed to the tyrant's request.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Kong Jie became anxious.

Li Jue was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and explained plainly, but his voice could reach everyone's ears.

He calmly said: "Everyone, the emperor is not a tyrant, but loves the people like a son. According to the laws of the Great Qin, you have been fighting against the officers and soldiers these days. You should have been sitting together, the barbarians, but you are still alive and well. This is proof."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, speechless.

Li Jue continued: "The emperor invited great Confucians to offer sacrifices to heaven and old masters to write sacrificial rites. This is because he values ​​Confucianism, and he also values ​​you."

"Otherwise, I, Li Jue, are famous all over the world, and my talent is unrivaled. Why don't you invite me to write a sacrificial oration, why don't you let me offer sacrifices to heaven?"

Everyone was taken aback, it seemed reasonable.

Li Jue continued: "Don't worry, everyone who was arrested before will be released. They were used by others, not from Confucianism, but from other schools of thought, just to make you fight against Daqin, and then Uprooted so they can become bigger and stronger."

When everyone heard the words, their eyes lit up, and they nodded one after another, completely approving Li Jue!

Kong Jue was silent for a while, and Liu Junshou was also silent.

This public revenge is too obvious! !

Chapter 270

Li Jue didn't restrain himself, nor did he intend to type out Zhao Gao's ID card.

But he was guiding both inside and outside the words, burning the fire on Zhao Gao.

The common people were a little angry, and felt that what Li Jue said was too reasonable.

After all, the biggest vested interests are the most respected legalists in Daqin today, and the representatives of the legalists are Li Si and Zhao Gao.

Li Si had been yelled at by Kong Jie in order to invite a great Confucian before, and his face was lost. It couldn't be him.

Otherwise, there's no need for him to come, and he won't lose face.

Only Zhao Gao, the legalist representative, has many disciples and countless diners, and is capable of fanning the flames.

Moreover, if Confucianism does not worship the sky, Zhao Gao will send people to sacrifice to the sky, wouldn't it be the most profitable! ?

Although everything is speculation, it is also very possible.

Li Jue's analysis was clear and logical, and everyone agreed with it.

The people were all fooled by Li Jue, thinking that it was Zhao Gao who was playing tricks, and if it wasn't him, it must have something to do with him.

Then everyone clamored for the emperor to dismiss Zhao Gao, and even supported the Confucianism to sacrifice to heaven, and they must not lose to the Legalists.

Let alone other theories ride on your head.

Kong Jie and the others went down the steps at once, but were pushed up to the high platform instead, with a strong sense of mission.

It's done.

Li Jue planned to leave, but Kong Jie felt that Li Jue was really scary.

A few words let them go out of the mountain, and a few words to divert the conflict and avenge their personal revenge.

If such a person is an enemy, it will definitely be a disaster for their Confucianism.

You can't beat it, you can't talk it.

Being an enemy of this kind of person is really courting death.

Kong Jue was already scared, but at the same time he was rejoicing in his heart. Fortunately, he was on the downhill, and it was also fortunate that Gai Nie was by Li Jue's side, so Li Jue would give him some face.

in fact.

He misunderstood.

Gai Nie is a fart, now he no longer has the arrogance of a sword master, he is just a follower next to Li Jue, he can't wait to kneel down and ask for advice every day.

It is impossible for Li Jue to give him face.

What really caught Li Jue's fancy was some of their Confucian theories, that's all.

It can only be said that Confucianism saved them, otherwise, Li Jue would not mind cutting them all down personally.

You might even get a lot of rewards.

After Li Jue bid farewell to everyone, he planned to return to his mission, and it was time to enter Mount Tai and search for the Heavenly Book by himself.

Liu Junshou closely followed Li Jue's footsteps, and said, "Master Li, I really admire you."

Li Jue said, "It's just a trivial matter."

Liu Junshou said: "However, Master Li is too harsh on Confucianism, and he is also merciless. You should know that you should use emotion to reason, and coercion and temptation will not last long."

He added: "As the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet."

Li Jue smiled and said, "A twisted melon is not sweet, but it quenches your thirst. You say I am harsh, but you are kind, so why did you almost lose your own life, and almost implicate the Confucianism and the entire Shandong region?" people?"

Liu Junshou was sweating coldly, and said, "It's not that serious, is it?"

Li Jue said: "You almost lost your life yourself, you won't forget it? And because of your incompetence, Confucianism will be questioned and beheaded, and the people in Shandong will rebel and be suppressed. Isn't it because of you?"

Liu Junshou smiled wryly, which seemed to make sense.

He said bitterly: "I just said a word, but I was speechless by you. Your mouth is too powerful, I feel ashamed."

Li Jue said indifferently: "I walk all over the world with reason, but you can't walk without reason. You are speechless to what I said, which proves that I am right."

Seeing that Liu Junshou was not convinced, he pressed the Longquan sword on his waist and said, "Actually, I am not only powerful with my mouth, but also with a powerful sword. After all, I am an executioner!"

Liu Junshou was taken aback and didn't dare to complain anymore.

At the same time, I felt helpless in my heart, this eldest son was too powerful, no wonder even Zhao Gao, who had all the power in the court, was no match for him.

Zhao Gao has lost a lot of hearts recently, because he was beaten by Li Jue one after another, lost his prestige, and no one wants to take refuge in him.

Many people feel that Li Jue will surpass Zhao Gao in status sooner or later.

When the time comes, the person with the most power will probably be Li Jue.

Liu Junshou understood that Li Jue's avenging his personal revenge this time would definitely destroy Zhao Gao's prestige.

He frowned, a little puzzled.

Li Jue is so smart, doesn't he know that if he is too prosperous, he will be suspected by the emperor.

A companion is like a tiger, if the emperor suspects that he is plotting something wrong, wouldn't it be a move of his head?

Li Jue was actually not worried at all, because he didn't care about official positions, and if the emperor hadn't insisted on giving them to him, he wouldn't have wanted to be a great concubine.

If the emperor really took his official position, then he really couldn't wish for it.

If the emperor asked him to be a high official, he would definitely refuse, because he didn't care about it, and he didn't want to take responsibility.

If you don't want to be, then have nothing to fear.

He even had a little expectation that he could be slapped directly.

It would be great to be the executioner who can behead anyone, and if necessary, go directly to the sky and be happy.

Li Jue walked back quickly, but he was not in a hurry to return to his command.

Only when the Confucianists express their views can he be reinstated, otherwise the Confucianists will renege on the promise and the responsibility will be on him.

Therefore, he went directly to his residence, let Yu Ji take care of her, and enjoy the corrupt life of the landlord.

The next day.

When Li Jue was planning to enter Mount Tai, an eunuch came to report that the emperor had invited him.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

He probably guessed what happened, but judging from the eunuch's expression, it seemed that it was not that simple.

Li Jue said, "Eunuch, do you know what happened?"

The eunuch bowed, not daring to answer.

Li Jue knew that most of the time someone slandered him, or the emperor got angry, and the anger was directed at him.

Inside the imperial tent.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Only people from Confucianism were not seen, but seeing Liu Junshou also had a place, Li Jue knew that Confucianism must have been here.

Seeing Hu Hai next to his mouth reaching behind his ears, Fu Su was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot.

You know, he has something to do today.

but.

The emperor looked calm, and said: "My lord, the Confucianists have agreed to sacrifice to heaven, and Kong Jie is also fasting and bathing, and preparing for the sacrificial ceremony. You have contributed a lot."

The crowd was silent.

Li Jue looked around and knew that the emperor must have something to say, but he still had to continue, and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty, I just did my duty."

Ying Zheng said: "You have done your duty, but why do you maliciously slander other colleagues?"

Li Jue suddenly realized that the point of anger was here.
