The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

No one gave an order, and no one took action. The main gate of the palace made a rumbling sound and was slowly opened by invisible force.

The king's voice is heard, and hundreds of officials discuss it in court.

Except for the capital, all the holy temples in Jingguo all project the same three-dimensional light and shadow on the square in front of them. That light and shadow is the Fengtian Temple.

The squares in front of the holy temples everywhere are larger than the Fengtian Hall, which is more than enough to accommodate a Fengtian Hall.

As time goes by, the light and shadow of Fengtian Palace slowly solidifies, and finally becomes exactly the same as the real Fengtian Palace.

Officials from various places stood at the entrance to the projection of Fengtian Hall and did not enter immediately.

At the Jingguo Palace, officials arrived at the entrance of the palace quickly one after another, then after a while, they quickly entered the main entrance and walked to the door of Fengtian Hall.

There were many low-ranking officials in the capital, and before long, a large number of people were crowded outside the Fengtian Palace.

Most of these people looked solemn and did not dare to speak easily, but some of them had already had arguments before the court meeting.

"That's nonsense! As a Xusheng, I have no right to comment on what he does, but he is also a Jinshi of Jingguo, a Duke of Zhenguo, and a cabinet councilor! What time is it now? It is when the demon barbarians are about to invade the south. It is Chen Sheng. When the serious illness is not cured, it is when Qing is strong and Jing is weak! They are just some libraries. If they are lost, they are lost. Why drag the entire Jing State into the abyss!"

Ou Mo, the minister of official affairs, was righteous and very angry.

"Don't forget, Minister Ou, Fang Xusheng has made it clear that it is not a civil war of ten people, but a battle of one state alone, which will not harm our country, Jingguo!" said the Minister of Rites, Sai.

In order to jointly fight against the monsters and barbarians and reduce the losses among the human race, the Holy Academy formulated a national civil war to replace the previous battles and killings and retain the power of the human race to the maximum extent.

The Ten Kingdoms Civil War generally involves picking out ten people from the same position to fight against each other. The side with more victories is the victorious country and can occupy a territory in the enemy country.

In addition, individuals can also launch a civil war against an enemy country. As long as one enemy is defeated, they will be successful.

There have been times when one person fought against ten people in a literary fight. Because the danger of a literary fight was limited, most scholars would be sent out to fight against each other.

But the civil war is different.

As soon as the Wen Zhan came out, they were basically the oldest group of people with the same Wen position.

Even the four great talents of each generation are no match for the oldest group of people with the same rank.

Take Li Wenying as an example. Now that he is a great Confucian, he can naturally outperform those old scholars who have stayed in the academic field for decades. However, when he was still a great scholar, he was no match for those older academics.

Those old bachelors often have at least twenty years of bachelor's experience and are forty or fifty years older than Li Wenying. Whether it is verbal confrontation or war poetry, whether it is talent or literary boldness, they have been polished to the extreme after thousands of years of hard work.

This is the difference between humans and monsters. After monsters age, their energy and blood will gradually deplete and become weaker and weaker, but humans rely on wisdom and will. As long as their bodies can hold on, the strength of those old scholars will always be better than that of the younger generation. .

These old men are aging and rarely participate in wars. They are all teaching the next generation in various places. If they engage in civil war, spring will come out of dead trees and their power will shock the world.

The ten folk associations recommended the "ten elders" of each academic degree, including the ten elders of Jinshi, the ten elders of Hanlin and the ten elders of bachelor's degree, to select the truly strongest persons of each academic degree.

Ou Mo couldn't help but chuckled and said: "That's a big statement! Not to mention that one of the ten old Jinshi scholars is in Qingguo. The bloody scholars in Qingguo alone are enough to beat Fang Yun!"

"That's not necessarily the case! Fang Xusheng can defeat the clone of the Lord of Plague, but why is he afraid of a bloody warrior?"

Many officials frowned slightly. Mr. Sai's answer was tough, but he did not mention the "Ten Scholars". Apparently, like most people, he believed that Fang Yun could not defeat one of the Ten Elders.

What's more, one of the ten elders of Qing Kingdom has a terrifying reputation, and many people present are frightened when they think of it.

Ou Mo chuckled and said: "The news of the demon world has spread to Shengyuan Continent, why hide it. Fang Yun killed the Plague Lord, it was a coincidence. If the clone of the Plague Lord had not been reborn within three days, if the plague clone had not encountered the medical book, If the illusory clone had not encountered the Eye of the Moon, Fang Yun would have never been able to win. Among the Qingguo Jinshi who participated in the civil war, no one could use the power of disease and plague, nor could they use illusions. What was the use of Fang Yun's two powers. ?”

"What about his military strategy?"

"How can the Art of War be used continuously? Even if it is better than one person, what will happen to the other nine people?" Ou Mo said.

"Fang Xusheng's war poems and verbal swordsmanship are all extraordinary, especially the dragon-like sword, which is invincible among Jinshi."

"What a joke! How can a bloody man use the verbal sword that he has honed for forty to fifty years to be weaker than Fang Yun! I'm afraid Fang Yun's verbal sword will collapse as soon as the two swords clash!"

"Hmph, it's useless to talk more. Since Fang Xusheng dares to fight alone, he must be at least 80% sure!"

Ou Mo said sternly: "Absurd! What Fang Yun did was just because he was deprived of the holy way of enlightenment. He became angry and lost his mind, so he declared Wen Zhan Qingguo. I think he regrets it now!"

"So what? He is one person, and the opponent is ten people. Even if ten people fail in the civil war, it is still an honor to lose!"

"It's really ridiculous. The king's voice is heard, hundreds of officials are discussing, and the people are looking forward to it. Are they just waiting for his failure?" Ou Mo said unceremoniously.

I heard Ji Zhibai say: "Servant Ou, please stop saying a few words. My mentor just told me that since we are from Jingguo, even if Fang Yun gets carried away, we should support him instead of pouring cold water on him."

Ou Mo glanced at Ji Zhibai, and immediately understood that Ji Zhibai's praise of Fang Yun was indirect, echoing his own, so he continued with a dark face: "Zhibai's words make sense. However, although he is a virtual saint, he is also a citizen of Jingguo and an official of Jingguo. I don't care and can't control his loss of face for the virtual saint, but he lost the face of Jingguo, causing shocks in the court and the country of Jingguo and consuming Jingguo's national strength. As the Minister of Personnel, I have to control it!"

"I know that Minister Ou is fair-minded, but he is a virtual saint after all. You accuse him like this, where is the face of the virtual saint?" Ji Zhibai said.

"Is the face of the virtual saint more important, or the inside of Jingguo more important? For Jingguo, I have no choice but to do it, but if Fang Yun is wrong, can it be said that it is a big deal? Let alone the virtual saint, even if the half-saint is wrong, we can criticize the saint!"

Many scholars present were furious. The reason why everyone tried not to mention Fang Yun as a virtual saint was because they were worried that these people would take the opportunity to cause trouble and disgrace the name of the virtual saint. If they don't mention that Fang Yun is a virtual saint, they can attack him at will, because as long as it involves state affairs, they will not be punished for their words.

Qiao Juze said coldly: "Lord Ou, it is normal for you to discuss state affairs as a minister. However, you tried your best to stop the Duke of Zhenguo from fighting the Qing Kingdom. If he wins the war and takes back Xiangzhou, will you resign from the position of minister?"

"I am just discussing political affairs outside the court. How can I take responsibility before the court meeting?"

"Since Fang Xusheng fought the war in Xiangzhou, he took all the failures on his shoulders. If you dare not take responsibility, please give more words of encouragement and less sarcasm. At the very least, you should be like a scholar of the human race and be cautious in what you say and do." Qiao Juze said loudly.
