Chapter 2423: The Expanding Academy

"Miss Jean didn't see enough. I was wrong."

In an instant, the face of an indifferent grand master changed. His smile looked as warm as the sun in the sky, but also with a sense of innocence.

But who dares to regard Xin Laoqi as an honest person?

Ma Detian fell to the ground, his body still twitching, but his pupils were dilated.

The brief fight just now seemed simple, just a grab, a bump, a kick, a press, a kick, and a punch.

The moves of both sides changed so quickly that others could not see clearly even if they were not paying attention.

There were a few sounds of fists and feet clashing, and the final sound of a punch on the heart, and then it was over.

Ma Detian, a famous master in the capital, was beaten to death with just one punch.

——Lao Qi, kill him!

Everyone slowly exchanged glances with shock in their hearts.

So Xin Laoqi is so powerful?

Back then in Shandong, Xin Laoqi fought one against a hundred on a rainy night. When the news reached the ears of the powerful people in the capital, most of them did not believe it, thinking that Xin Laoqi just encountered a group of rabble, killed a few people and then dispersed.

But today Xin Laoqi killed Ma Detian with just a few moves, and no one dared to doubt his record.

Chen Zhong glanced at Ma Detian who had stopped twitching coldly, then came out and said, "Uncle Xinghe, this is over, I'm leaving now."

He led the men onto their horses and left, seemingly calm, as if they had just lost a game of chess.

But there was no one to take care of Ma Detian on the ground, and no one would take care of it later. The martial arts people would naturally throw the body outside, and wait for the people from the Wucheng Military and Horse Division to call a car and drag it to the incarnation field.

Chen Zhong, who was unwilling to collect corpses for his own family, would naturally become a cold-blooded person. If word spread, the reputation of Taining Hou Mansion would probably get worse.

Fang Xing looked at the corpse with complicated eyes and sighed: "It's okay to stand out, but you dare to enter a life-and-death situation, why bother!"

The emperor asked the servants of each family to compete, just to make these fat-minded relatives worry about whether they were too big to attract attention.

But Ma Detian was in a dead end.

After Meng Ying finished speaking, the dignitaries refused to let their servants take action, knowing that taking action at this time would be a fool.

But Ma Detian still took action. Was this instigated by Chen Zhong?

Looking at Chen Zhong's appearance at that time, it was clear that he was a little stunned, which showed that Ma Detian came out to challenge Xin Laoqi on his own.

But if it weren't for what Chen Zhongping said, how dare Ma De come out?

The Fang family and the Chen family have become enemies!

The dignitaries all greeted their men to mount their horses with serious faces. Some of them even raised their hands to Fang Xinggong before leaving, kindly reminding him to be careful of Ma Detian's former gang of brothers.

"Sir, Ma Detian originally had more than ten people under his command, and they were all extremely brave."

At this time, the prototype of the escort bureau had not yet appeared. When wealthy businessmen wanted to hire someone to protect them when traveling, they usually hired green-skinned bosses.

But Qingpi's reputation is not high. It often happens that his employer will be abandoned when he encounters a robbery. There are even cases where Qingpi and thieves join forces to make his employer disappear from the world.

Therefore, some organizations similar to those in the future emerged. They did not follow Qingpi, but they made it clear that they wanted to use their bravery in exchange for food.

Ma Detian is a pioneer in this industry. After he was killed by Xin Laoqi, his brothers were afraid that life would be difficult, so naturally they would not give in.

Fang Xing walked towards his carriage and said casually: "I am an official, and the official law is like a furnace. He serves the people, and the people are like copper and iron. If they dare to come, they will be melted."

"father!"

The sun was shining brightly, Wuyou stood on the edge of the carriage and opened his hands to Fang Xing, smiling like a flower.

…

The emperor left the city early this morning, and he also took the eldest prince with him. It is said that he was reviewing the brothers and sisters in the martial arts school.

Logically speaking, lunch must be enjoyed by the emperor and his ministers. It can be regarded as a favor given by the emperor to his relatives.

But before lunch time, the emperor hurried back to the palace. Although there were people guarding the emperor on both sides along the way, some brave people still saw the holy face, which was said to be a bit livid.

Later, the dignitaries and spectators came back one after another, bringing back most of the descendants of the nobles and relatives who were incompetent.

News that angered the emperor.

This news overjoyed the gentry, and the resentment in their hearts due to the cleanup and dedication began to go astray, and gloating over misfortune took over.

"That's the way this guy is. He's unlucky himself, but when he sees others doing well, he gets even more angry when he's unlucky."

A Taoist priest with disheveled hair stood at the city gate, looking at the dignitaries entering the city, and sighed: "But if someone is also unlucky, then they will feel that their own pain is reduced by three points. If they can still gloat about their misfortune, they will probably come because of their bad luck." And all the dissatisfaction and resentment that arise will gradually dissipate.”

Inside the door is the sergeant guarding the door, and a little further inside are more than a dozen green men.

The green men are here waiting for business. When there is business, they have to tap the heads of the sergeants guarding the gate. Otherwise, if it rains, they will be soaked outside.

"There is some truth in what this man said."

A green-skinned man stood on the side, listening to the Taoist priest's words with his hands, and said with some emotion: "Both the gentry and the powerful are not good people, but our employers are not considered good people."

"Ma Detian was beaten to death!"

After a while, someone shouted outside. The green-skinned people looked at each other, and someone said, "Are you afraid it's false news?"

"Ma Detian is so powerful. Brothers used to walk around him when they saw him. Who can beat him to death?"

"It was said that he was beaten to death by Xin Laoqi, Xinghebo's retainer, with just one punch."

"This matter...where are his brothers? I'm afraid there will be blood in the city today! No, the Fang family is outside the city!"

Some people who were curious went to Fangjiazhuang, ready to watch the excitement on the road.

The news spread everywhere, even Zhu Zhanji knew it.

Zhu Zhanji had just returned to the palace and had just eaten a few snacks. After hearing the report, he said coldly: "It's good to let Xinghebo kill that evil spirit, but what about Chen Zhong?"

Yu Jia guessed the emperor's mood and smiled: "Your Majesty, Taining Hou is said to have recruited Ma Detian as a worshiper the day before yesterday."

Zhu Zhanji's face was slightly relieved, and he said: "You have to be sensible in doing things. Those who don't know the sense of measure will sooner or later be told what the sense of measure is."

His eyes swept across Yu Jia's face, and then he began to read the memorial.

Yu Jia's heart was chilled by this look. Thinking back to the emperor's last words, he didn't know whether it was directed at Chen Zhong or himself.

He thought of the recent situation. Since the New Year, since Liu Guan came back, a series of changes have shown that the emperor has lost patience with the aggressiveness of the gentry, so he has dealt with many people.

But being too tough is not good after all. According to Yu Jia's own idea, the gentry, as the backbone of the Ming Dynasty, should not be too close, but also not too distant. However, the current situation is very bad, almost a state of falling out.

Fang Xing did not give Chen Zhong face at all today. He killed Ma Detian, but it was Chen Zhong and the nobles who lost face.

How can the servants of each family have anything to do with the emperor!

Meng Ying's inexplicable words want to make everyone fight among themselves. Who would like that?

Ma Detian suddenly popped up. This is to explore the way, and it is also aimed at Fang Xing. How can the dignitaries not be grateful?

Thinking of this, Yu Jia couldn't help but sigh in surprise, thinking that Fang Xing really lived as he pleased and didn't want to leave a way out for his family in the future.

"Let someone take 10,000 strings and give it to Xinghe Bo."

The emperor suddenly spoke, and fortunately Yu Jia was doing two things at the same time, so he reacted in time.

The emperor was naturally rich, especially the previous two emperors left a lot of family assets. When Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, he was considered a rich emperor.

But 10,000 guan is not a small amount!

If it is a reward, the Fang family is not short of money.

Then what is the name for this money?

Give it privately?

But the emperor is selfless!

Yu Jia asked hesitantly: "Your Majesty, what is the name?"

He felt the heat in his armpits and the heat was steaming.

Zhu Zhanji said: "After the expansion of Zhixing Academy, there are more students. Xinghe Bo said that there is a shortage of food money. Both the north and south should be given."

Yu Jia agreed and went out to make arrangements.

He walked along, with various thoughts in his mind.

There are both north and south Zhixing Academy, and the emperor said last time that the academy is allowed to expand.

Today, the north and south Zhixing Academy has already expanded several times, and the number of students and teachers has also expanded several times.

And if these two academies want to maintain, they need to spend a lot of money and grain every year.

The emperor gave 10,000 guan, so it must be maintenance expenses.

So who owns the academy?

Yu Jia suddenly shuddered. He felt that the nobles might have guessed the emperor's meaning wrongly.

The emperor is not only going to strike down the gentry, it seems that he will not let go of the nobles either!

When he took the money and left the palace with a group of guards behind him, a gatekeeper who wanted to flatter him said flatteringly: "Eunuch, many people have gone to Fangjiazhuang."

"Why?"

Yu Jia was about to get on the horse, and turned around and asked.

The sergeant said: "Ma Detian died at the hands of Xinghebo's family servants, and his brothers are going to take revenge for him!"
