C211 Detonation Countdown (2/2)
Ci An was still able to stabilize his stance, she comforted softly, ”Sit down and rest, An Dehai, give your master another Dragon-well Clearing Fire … I can see through these literati. They are afraid. ”
”Before, these people did not even take Xiao Letian seriously, they were all using underhanded methods. They never thought that Xiao Letian would be able to solve all the problems he faced after passing through so many trials. Now, Qing Liu is afraid, they know that they are unable to suppress Xiao Letian. Therefore, they are going to take the field themselves. These scholars are going all out because they are afraid that the imperial government will give up on showbiz! ”
”Then what's to be done according to elder sister's wishes?”
Ci An laughed bitterly as he shook his head and sighed. As you said earlier, now is not the time for the founding of the imperial court. ”I can't suppress them, but I still have to persuade them kindly. Since these scholars are still warm after a while, I'll let them go if they get tired …”
At the most critical moment, the Golden-purple City had also chosen to deal with the situation coldly. This was the last chance to control the situation, and the Manchu royal family didn't seize this opportunity.
After Xiao Letian's nuclear weapon had officially exploded, Qing Liu and the Manchu royal family had regretted it more than once. If they had known that Xiao Letian had such a scheme, they wouldn't have made things so bad. None of them dared to force Xiao Letian into a corner.
In the end, the Mugwort didn't receive the order to expel him. The meaning of the summit was to separate the crowd and let them disperse on their own, as long as they didn't have to fight again. Mugwort sighed as he rode his warhorse to maintain his morale. This cold weather did not let anyone rest, so his bros were filled with anger.
However, this group of scholars was also in a frenzy today. Their noses and faces were all swollen, yet they still hadn't retreated yet. To think that they were actually bullying the soldiers! Not only that, but as time passed, more and more students came to support them. Seeing how badly the pioneers had been beaten up, they all became anxious.
”What a disgrace, what a disgrace!” How can we scholars be so insulted? How can the Empire treat us like this? What have we done wrong? Expulsion from Western Studies is a perverse concept. How did Protecting Appearance become a sin? ”Give me an explanation …”
”An answer, an answer to all the scholars of the world …” More and more scholars were crowding around the frontlines, holding their shields as they roared in anger. They surged forward like stormy waves, almost startling the warhorses beneath them.
”An explanation?” What kind of explanation do you need from me? The court gave me an order not to let you fight, and I can't give you an explanation. ”However, I still want to advise you to calm down. Just cause a ruckus, it's almost noon. Quickly go back and drink some wine …”
Mugwort acted like he did not care, completely infuriating the scholars. The more they gathered, the louder their shouts became. In the end, over a thousand scholars were gathered there, their angry slogans causing the entire sky above the capital to buzz.
”Expulsion from Western study, killing Xiao Letian, and giving us justice …”
”To expel Western learning, to kill Xiao Letian …”
”Kill Western Studies, kill Xiao Letian …”
The more people this thing shouted, the shorter it would become. In the end, there were only two sentences, 'Kill Western Learning, kill Xiao Letian'. The entire street was filled with shouts and shouts, and the imposing manner that assaulted one's senses was so shocking that even Prince Kung s who were peeking behind the door nearly fell to the ground.
”Fellow students, the same year... If the imperial government doesn't want us to fight, then we'll use our throats to wake up all the nobles and all the hooligans in the world. Today, Great Qing Dynasty will hear our voices... ”
Hundreds and thousands of scholars chose to demonstrate their prowess. As they walked on the streets, under the incredulous gazes of the capital's citizens, they shouted out their demands.
”Kill Western Studies, kill Xiao Letian …”
Very quickly, the group began to change. A long dragon divided into two, then into four, then eight, and they rushed to the various streets of the capital. Strangely enough, no matter how many long dragons there were, there were still a lot of people.
Countless people from the capital and the crowd that was watching the show were tailing them. Some of them even joined in and gave a few roars. In a society with a high pressure like the late Qing, being able to act as she pleased was indeed a very attractive thing.
The capital was in an uproar. Hundreds of thousands of citizens had heard the voices of the scholars. The people who worshipped knowledge subconsciously chose to believe in the scholars. It wasn't just because he was used to it, but also because at this moment, the voice of a scholar was the loudest.
Scholars always say that if studying in the west is bad, then it's bad! In any case, the large nose s had burned three mountains and five gardens and it was truly bad enough … …
The scholar said that Xiao Letian should be killed, so he killed him! Didn't they say that he was going to rebel? If the Elementary Scholar said that he should be killed, then it would not be an injustice.
The roar was like thunder, not only did it strike the sky in the capital, it also struck the hearts of the people. Xiao Letian became the target of everyone for a moment.
However, no one expected that near every long dragon, there would be vigilance observing them. Some of the figures had even climbed to the roof, Xiao Letian's counterattack was about to begin.
