Chapter 472 Public Opinion Aggressive
"presumptuous!"
Xiao Ming was furious: "When is it my king's turn to quit these serious things, and the Confucian scholar who talks nonsense all day makes irresponsible remarks!"
Pang Yukun looked carefully at Xiao Ming, but Xiao Ming's anger this time made him see some of the majesty that a vassal king should have.
He bowed and said: "Your Highness, calm down, these Confucian scholars have never looked at Bowen College from the beginning to the end. They have been studying sages and sages hard, only to be named in the golden list one day, so in their view, His Royal Highness encouraged scholars to learn such wonderful skills. Prostitutes and cleverness are the way of the lower three, and what they follow is the right way in the world."
"It's absurd, can't they see the development of Qingzhou now? Are all of them blind?" Xiao Ming was extremely angry. The death of Medical Officer Sun had already made him a little irritable. Now these Confucian scholars are taking advantage of the topic, how can he not be angry.
However, the most important thing now is to find out the cause of Dr. Sun's death. He said: "These Confucian scholars can't make waves. The most important thing for you now is to find out the cause of Dr. Sun's death. Does he really value the inheritance of master and apprentice more than his life? Is it important?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Ming suddenly felt a sense of frustration. He did not expect the power of deep-rooted concepts to be so powerful.
"Yes." Pang Yukun nodded, he hesitated and said, "Your Highness, do you want to arrest these Confucian scholars who spread rumors and cause trouble?"
After hesitating for a while, he said: "No need, let them continue to make trouble, it is best to let them make a little noise, otherwise this king will have no reason to clean them up."
"Just letting these scholars slander and belittle His Highness may damage His Highness's reputation." Pang Yukun was a little worried.
Xiao Ming laughed at this time, "Pang Changshi has been thinking too much. If this is in Chang'an, this king will be worried, but don't forget what the foundation of Qingzhou is. Now that there are no clansmen and nobles, this king relies on the common people. And these Confucian scholars are of no use to the fief."
"His Royal Highness said that as long as the people are stable, these scholars can't make trouble." Pang Yukun said.
After all, he turned to leave.
Watching Pang Yukun out of the main hall, Xiao Ming sent Li San to the palace at this time. There are secret guards monitoring everywhere in Qingzhou. Just ask him what the root of the matter is.
But just when the servant was about to go out, Li San had already arrived at the palace.
"His Royal Highness asked the subordinate to come here for Medical Officer Sun, right?" Li San said.
Xiao Ming nodded, "Since you already know, let's talk about what you know now."
Li San nodded and said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, Doctor Sun did commit suicide by taking poison, and before taking the poison, he told his family that he didn't want to offend His Highness, and he didn't want to be criticized by the doctor, so he could only die. , and it is precisely these words that reached the ears of Confucian scholars, and these Confucian scholars discussed His Highness."
"So it is." Xiao Ming sighed faintly, "Why is this necessary?"
Li San said: "However, Your Highness, Doctor Sun's suicide may not be the responsibility of His Highness. The lower official thinks that this matter has a lot to do with Doctor Sun's senior brother, because the day before Doctor Sun committed suicide, Doctor Sun's senior brother Dong Haoran visited Doctor Sun. , and according to the lower official's understanding, the two broke up unhappy."
"Yes, you have made progress now, and you have figured out the ins and outs of things right away." Xiao Ming comforted in his heart.
Wang Xuan is the master and Li San is the master. The two of them cooperate with each other to be the complete secret guard. In the past two years, he invested millions of taels to build the secret guard, and now the real Qingzhou city finally has his eyeliner.
"His Royal Highness, the official said that he would not disappoint His Highness." Li San said happily, he was ashamed and brave when Wang Xuan repeatedly stole the limelight.
During this period of time, he has been desperately training his subordinates, and now he has a firm control over the fief.
"Well, you immediately hand over the clues you got to Pang Shoufu, and let him arrest Dong Haoran immediately." Xiao Ming said.
Li San nodded and turned to leave.
Xiao Ming also walked out of the main hall at this time. At this time, there was a killing intent in his heart. He was not afraid of the battle of Cangzhou, nor was he afraid of the battle of Jizhou. Could he be afraid of this deep-rooted feudal ignorance? Is it the lingering mouth of Confucian scholars in the world?
He was surprised by Dr. Sun's death, but now that someone wants to use this to criticize his policies, his thinking is too simple.
If necessary, he wouldn't mind having a head-to-head confrontation with these Confucian scholars, depending on whether it was their mouths or his guns, he just kept his tolerance for these Confucian scholars for the past two years just because he didn't want to add to the controversy.
But the death of Doctor Sun this time touched him a lot, and he felt that it was necessary to beat these Confucian scholars.
But before that, he must deal with the matter of Dr. Sun, otherwise his medical school will be finished, and his army will not have the institution of battlefield medical care.
Frowning his brows, Xiao Ming sighed. He felt that it was necessary to establish an astronomy college in Bowen College.
In his opinion, this is the most beneficial weapon against feudal ideology, but he will not use this weapon for the time being, but will use it when necessary, because once he introduces astronomy, it means denying the divine authority of the monarchy Thought.
At that time, the most frightened person is probably not the Confucianism, but the emperor Xiao Wenxuan of the dynasty. At that time, these Confucian scholars contributed to the flames, and Xiao Ming estimated that it was no different from rebellion.
Therefore, preparations are necessary for him, and preparations must be secret. Once he has the opportunity, he can publish this astronomical knowledge, and even use this astronomical knowledge as a weapon at that time.
In this regard, he already has a plan, which is very risky and bold, because once it is successful, the Confucius family in Qufu may be able to use it for him.
While he was thinking, Li San had already brought the news to Pang Yukun.
After getting the news, Pang Yukun immediately ordered Dong Haoran to be arrested. He understood Xiao Ming's thoughts. He wanted to rectify the unhealthy behavior of the fief doctors, and Dong Haoran was the key point of this incident.
At this time, among a medical officer in the south of Qingzhou City, Dong Haoran was sitting opposite to three people dressed as scholars.
One of the scholars said: "Sun Medical Officer is righteous. In order to maintain the teachings of Confucianism, he would rather die than submit to the King of Qi. He is a role model for my generation."
"Exactly, this Bowen College has long been unpopular, and it has been cast aside for me and other Confucian scholars. Only such absurd things can happen in the land of Qilu and the hometown of sages. Now many absurd things have been written and sent to Qufu, asking Mr. Kong. Say something for us Confucian scholars."
"That is, why are we Confucian scholars unable to take the exam to enter the officialdom for this national political reform? What qualifications do those scholars in Bowen College who forget their ancestors have compared to us!"
