The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1759 Lord Wu declares war

Many scholars in the Qing Kingdom are a little confused, and some high-ranking officials are even angry. Although the Qing Kingdom's national power has increased, it is because the power of the Zongsheng and the Zong family has increased, and there is no advantage in other aspects. After all, the Qing Kingdom is somewhat peaceful, and the Wu Kingdom fights with the Qi Kingdom, and In barbarian battles, they never fall behind and are strong in all aspects.

If it were a literary competition, at most it would be a comparison of poetry, articles, music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Qingguo and Wuguo were evenly matched, but if it really came to a literary contest, Qingguo would have at most a 40% chance of winning.

Especially those people from the Qing Kingdom who scolded Lord Wu at the beginning wanted to bite off their tongues. If they had known this, they would never provoke the Kingdom of Wu. But now they are riding a tiger and cannot get off, so they can only hold on and accept the declaration of war by the Kingdom of Wu.

Qingjun looks very ugly. Now he has not even solved the matter of Fang Yun, but has provoked a large number of scholars from Wu State. The key is that Wu State is far away from Qingjing, so even if Wu State scholars want to cause trouble with Qing State, they will rarely do so. Go to Qingjing. But now, a large number of Wu people used the temporary sea eyes to come to Baling, and Baling is very close to Qingjing.

The officials of the Qing Kingdom also frowned with worry. Who would have thought that Fang Yun held a cultural gathering and actually transported scholars from the Wu Kingdom to the vicinity of Qingjing?

"Diverting trouble to the east!" All Qingguo officials looked at Fang Yun helplessly. If this was really Fang Yun's plan, he would almost be granted the title of Conspirator, and he was completely toying with the two countries.

Wu Jun was getting more and more excited. He was obviously very close to Fang Yun, and he said with a tongue full of spring thunder: "Fang Xusheng, I'm here for your literary meeting. Our Wu Kingdom is going to celebrate the literary competition in Beijing, will you go?"

Without thinking, Fang Yun immediately replied: "I support the Wu Kingdom in my personal capacity and support the scholars in the Wu Kingdom. If you need anything, just ask, and I will never refuse anything that I, Fang Yun, can help with!"

"Okay! With you, the nemesis of the Qing Kingdom, we will definitely win a complete victory! I will declare war on the Qing Kingdom now, and fight for the whole Qing Kingdom!" Lord Wu was even more happy. With Fang Yun's help, the scholars of the Wu Kingdom can Morale doubled.

Everyone in Wu Kingdom suddenly cheered.

The people of Qingguo all look like dumb people who are suffering from coptis, so what do they mean by "Qingguo's nemesis"? This Yueyang Tower is outside the Qing Kingdom, and Fang Yun can create Qing dogs barking in the snow and Qing donkeys with poor skills here, which is enough to make Qing people scolded for hundreds of years in the future. When Fang Yun arrives in Qing Capital, will the Qing people endure it?

However, although the people of Qingguo were worried in their hearts, they did not admit defeat in their hearts. Although Wuguo was strong, it did not have a crushing advantage over Qingguo. Even Yi Zhishi had never overwhelmed the people of Qingguo like Fang Yun.

The two countries are not merciful with their words, and the cultural competition between Qingjing and Beijing is a foregone conclusion.

Qing Jun watched the scholars from the two countries fighting back and forth. One was the leader and the other was the leader. He had prepared many means to target Fang Yun. Once this incident broke out, many means could not be used. Moreover, now the forums were discussing the relationship between the two countries. It seems that no one cares about this literary society anymore.

Just when the two people were arguing, a scholar in purple suddenly stood up, slightly raised his hand to Fang Yun, and said with spring thunder, "I have something unclear, please ask Fang Xusheng for advice."

The loud voice made everyone's ears buzz. Everyone stopped shouting and followed the sound. Some people quickly recognized this person and were surprised. Could it be that this person also wanted to oppose Fang Yun?

Tang Zhengwei, a great Confucian of the State of Shen, was also the Literary Minister of the State of Shen. He studied the holy way of rituals intensively and took the restoration of Zhou rites as his own responsibility. He was rigid and stubborn. He was an old scholar who had a headache for everyone, but his knowledge was really solid. Too profound.

Some great scholars of the same generation asserted that if this person was not obsessed with the holy way of etiquette, and if his character was not too square, he would definitely become a literary giant, and he would most likely be canonized. However, this person is too paranoid to be canonized.

Fang Yun looked at the old gentleman, who was wearing a purple robe that had turned white after washing. His hair was snow-white with only a few strands of black silk. This man has an ordinary appearance, but his eyes seem to have great majesty. He can reorder the mountains and rivers, establish his own order, and make people intimidated and involuntarily follow his will.

Fang Yun said: "I am very happy to hear from Mr. Zhengwei. However, I am about to have a literary competition with Zhang Longxiang. After the literary competition, I will ask for advice from Mr. Zhengwei. What do you think?"

Tang Zhengwei said: "I just want to ask you in front of the world. After the literary competition, you may not give me a chance to ask questions, nor may you have a chance to discuss this matter. I am not asking for my own personal gain, but for many friends."

"Many friends? Those people who are called the 'male society'?" Fang Yun did not conceal the ridicule in his tone.

"Nanzunshe is someone else's name. In my mind, our society is just a temporary literary society with no name or surname." Tang Zhengwei said indifferently, not caring at all about Fang Yun's ridicule.

Fang Yun nodded lightly and said, "Mr. Zhengwei really doesn't leave me any room and insists on forcing me to answer in front of Wenbi?"

"If you are shaken because of my question, you are not worthy of competing with Zhang Longxiangwen, the hero of the Two Realms Mountains, and you will definitely lose. If my question cannot affect you, then even if you lose, you can't blame me." Tang Zhengwei's expression was the same as before, like dry bark, unchanged at all.

"Well, let me ask Mr. Zhengwei a few questions first. Are you willing to answer them?" Fang Yun asked.

"Tell me everything I know, and tell me everything I know," Tang Zhengwei said.

"May I ask, sir, if I put a straw on you, would you think that I am obstructing you or trying to make you bear a heavy burden?" Fang Yun asked.

"I'm not so narrow-minded." Tang Zhengwei said.

Fang Yun continued: "Then, hundreds of millions of Jingguo people, one by one, each puts a straw on you. Assuming that the straw can be gathered together and not scattered, all the weight can press on you, will you? die?"

"Although I am a great scholar, my body has its limits after all, and the weight I can carry has its limits." Tang Zhengwei seemed to want to say something else, but he just answered seriously.

"Of these straws, there will always be a time when the last one is put in, causing you to be overwhelmed. So, will the person who put the straw in the end kill you, or will I who put the straw in the first place kill you?" Fang Yun ask.

The whole place was silent, everyone already understood Fang Yun's intention.

Tang Zhengwei was silent for a few breaths and said slowly: "No one will kill me, but everyone who puts straw on me will hurt me."

"Then, let me ask again. Should Mr. Zhengwei insist on asking me now, or should I wait until the competition is over?" Fang Yun looked at Tang Zhengwei's eyes quietly, not at all shocked by the aura in his eyes.

Tang Zhengwei handed over his hand to Fang Yunyi and said: "I didn't think carefully and almost became someone else's pawn. After the cultural meeting, I brought someone to visit. The rest of the people are waiting. If the word Tang Zhengwei is a bit thin, no matter what If you have any questions, please wait until the conference is over to find Fang Xusheng.”

After Tang Zhengwei finished speaking, he sat down.

All the members of the "Men's Society" looked at each other, and finally shook their heads. No one stood up. In fact, the conversation between the two had made it very clear. If Wen asked after the meeting, Fang Yun would not blame him, but if he pressed Fang Yun now, , I am afraid that Fang Yun will be regarded as an enemy and will most likely encounter an extremely fierce counterattack.
