Chapter 603: The Wisdom of the People Is the Wisdom of the Country

"What did you say?"

Ma Xing shouted out of composure and asked, an astonishing force erupted from his aging body, and he grabbed the visitor by the collar.

The visitor had never seen Ma Xing like this before, so he had to repeat what he said just now.

"Fang Dehua! Xie Jin can't think of such a sinister trick, it must be Fang Dehua!"

Ma Xing's friends also looked livid, and one of them said: "If this matter is not handled well, His Majesty will have a lump in his heart."

The Ming Dynasty did not allow students to discuss politics, but today's behavior of blocking the door is actually discussing politics, and it is meddling in politics.

Ideological struggles also belong to the political category, because it will affect the subsequent direction of political development.

"Go! Go quickly!"

Thinking of Zhu Di's indifferent eyes, Ma Xing trembled all over and asked someone to change his clothes.

But just as the clothes were changed, someone came again.

"My lord, everyone from Zhixing Academy has left."

"What?" Ma Xing's eyes widened, and he said angrily, "Going away?"

"Let's go. They stood there for a quarter of an hour and then left."

Ma Xing's body relaxed, and then he said angrily: "Who asked those students to block the bookstore? Who?"

The visitor wiped off the oily sweat on his face, bowed his head and said, "Lord Liao has been in the Imperial Prison today. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find out who was in charge. He only knew that someone yelled a few times, and then slowly spread out."

Ma Xing was speechless. If he could find the source of this matter, then he could use the reason that someone bewitched the students to shirk the responsibility of the Imperial College.

But how to shirk now?

...

When the news reached the palace, it happened to be the time when Zhu Di asked the scholars to go back separately.

After walking out of the main hall, Hu Guang heard people from Jinyiwei report the matter inside.

"...The students of the Imperial College first went to block the doors of various bookstores in Jinling, and they were not allowed to sell Xing Hebo's books outside. Then Xie Jin took the teachers and students of Zhixing Academy to block the door of the Imperial College and pulled a A banner that reads…”

"What is written?"

Zhu Di's voice was not very pleasant to hear.

"It's written...to block the bookstore today, to block tomorrow..., and there will be no His Majesty below."

There was silence for a while, Hu Guang waved to the officials, and everyone dispersed quickly.

Yang Shiqi said with a bitter face: "Lord Hu, Fang Xing's move is ruthless enough, I'm afraid I'm going to sit in the Imperial Academy now."

Hu Guang held back his anger and said, "Who told them to block the bookstore? Where's Ma Xing? Where's Liao Bin? Are these two people out of business?"

Yang Shiqi said: "Shumu, the Imperial College today!"

Hu Guang just remembered this, and he sighed: "Today we should also take a rest, but His Majesty ordered us to go to court as usual, but what about the Imperial College! Can't these people live in peace?"

Yang Shiqi sighed: "Your Majesty must have a lump in his heart. If Ma Xing is smart, he should come to plead guilty right away."

Hu Guang snorted, "This person is best at forbearance, it's no wonder he doesn't come!"

Sure enough, when the two of them returned to the room, they heard that Ma Xing had arrived.

Not long after, someone came to report: "Lord Hu, Lord Yang, Lord Ma of the Imperial College was reprimanded by His Majesty, and he was ordered to go back to rectify the Imperial College and cancel the half-year rest of the Imperial College. And... Xing and Bo also came gone."

Uh... is this going to beat Ma Xing violently in front of His Majesty?

But it didn't take long before someone came to report: "My lord, Xing and Bo posted a notice outside the bookstore, and the price of those two books has been reduced."

Fuck! This is a combination punch!

One punch made Guozijian dizzy, and the second punch made all potential buyers flock to it.

Books are not something ordinary people can afford, even if Fang Xing reduces the cost, many people still have to save money to afford those two books.

This is drawing from the bottom of the pot!

Such a drastic method!

Hu Guang and Yang Shiqi looked at each other with awe in their hearts.

...

Fang Xing looked at Ma Xing's lifeless face,

I really want to blow him up with a punch!

But Zhu Di was on it, and he was losing his temper.

"Incompetent! Shameless!"

Ma Xing was dizzy from the two words, but before he finished, the veins on Zhu Di's neck twitched, and he shouted: "I can't find out who is making noise, so why do I want you!"

"The minister deserves death..."

Ma Xing could only kneel down and plead guilty.

Zhu Di glanced at Fang Xing, and said in a deep voice, "You are only afraid that the world will not be chaotic!"

Fang Xing said innocently: "Your Majesty, I just think that the students of the Imperial College are too attractive, and they just simply linked together. The bookstores in the entire Jinling City are almost unable to do business. Your Majesty, I am worried that someday they will It will block the minister's house, and the minister will not be able to go to the court at that time, isn't that a great crime!"

Shameless!

Ma Xing cursed Fang Xing's shamelessness in his heart: You are clearly alluding to the Imperial College, no, you are implying that scholars will form a group in the future, and when they encounter something that doesn't suit them, they will swarm to block the door.

Maybe even do some... things!

Fang Xing said eloquently: "Your Majesty, Emperor Taizu Gao said back then that everyone in the world can talk about everything in the world, but students can't say it. Taizu Gao Emperor is wise, of course it is justified."

Damn it!

Ma Xing almost vomited blood!

How can this be related to the ancestral system?

And it is said that the matter of discussing the salt policy that day was that you, Fang Xing, opposed the ancestral system!

The eunuch shook his head slightly, thinking that Ma Xing wanted to challenge Fang Xing, it was really an impossible task!

Fang Xing opposed the ancestral system, but it was from a position that was beneficial to Daming. And you, Ma Xing, killed yourself and got the students involved in a fight that they shouldn't be involved in.

This is a fight between gods and mortals!

...

A circle of people surrounded Juwentang, Chen Sanli glanced at it, and then asked someone to read it out.

This was just posted by Fang Wu's people. Chen Sanli remembered that Shang Yun who was arrogant to him was taken down last time, so he didn't dare to refuse at all, and he didn't even dare to look at it.

"Want to learn how to read? Then buy a Fangxue dictionary."

"Want to understand the mysteries of the world? Then you have to buy a math book first!"

"Within seven days from now, the price of these two books will be reduced by 30%! Don't miss it when you pass by, you will never find such a good opportunity after seven days!"

After someone finished reading before the announcement, Chen Sanli asked in doubt: "Those scholars are all opposed to Fang Xue, so will anyone still buy it?"

His buddy was also uncertain and said: "Shopkeeper, look at those scholars, they all look contemptuous! They definitely won't buy it."

yes!

Chen Sanli felt that Fang Xing's trick was in vain, and it would make people think that Fang Xue was worthless knowledge, who would buy it?

"I'll buy!"

A man wearing patched clothes walked in, asked the price, and carefully took out a bag from the skirt.

The copper coins are all shiny copper coins, it can be seen that the owner often touches and counts them.

It seems that the money has been saved for a long time, the man counted it three times with a silly smile, and then asked: "Shopkeeper, is it enough?"

Chen Sanli didn't know what he was thinking, he went to collect the money himself, but said: "Ten copper coins are too much, you take it back."

"Oh, thank you, shopkeeper." The man said with a naive smile, "The little one is just a bit stupid, so I have saved up money for a long time, just to buy Xing Hebo's books for the children in the family, so that they can learn by themselves!"

"When the young children and grandchildren grow up, they will definitely be smart. Not to mention they can catch up with Uncle Xing, but it's good to be able to settle accounts..."

The man took the two books, carefully wrapped them in oiled paper as if protecting treasures, and put them in his arms.

Chen Sanli was a little dazed. He saw that there were already many people in the store, most of them were dressed in simple or even tattered clothes, and they all came for these two books.
