Du Ning looked directly at Wu Xiangwen and said: "If you want to live, kneel down and be their slave, their dog."

"If you want to live with dignity, take up arms and fight with them! Build an indestructible Great Wall with blood and flesh, as long as the people are strong and the country is strong!"

"I dare to ask Mr. Wu, do you want to be a dog of a foreign race, or do you want to shed your blood for the future generations of Yun Kingdom and return with your body wrapped in horse leather?"

Wu Xiangwen's expression changed and he said loudly: "Absurd! What a brave man! Ridiculous!"

"You sound nice, but in fact it's just sanctimonious!"

"Du Ning, Du Ning! You look grand on the surface, but in fact you are looking forward to the destruction of the Yun Dynasty. You are worse than a beast!"

Du Ning said calmly: "Du is just expressing his personal opinion. After all, some people will do anything to survive. Even if he is asked to stab his compatriots with a knife, he will not hesitate, but I would rather

To die standing up rather than live kneeling down, this is the spirit of scholars who would rather break than bend, and it is the spirit of the human race that stands firm in the Holy Forest Continent without falling. This is what our ancestors did in the past, and we are doing the same now."

"Well said!"

"I'd rather be a piece of jade than a piece of tile!"

"Everyone has to die. It may be lighter than a feather or heavier than Mount Tai. I am willing to be the latter!"

"Scholars should inherit the spirit of their ancestors so that they can create an unfailing empire!"

Many readers are excited.

"Hmph! Ignorance! A brave man like a common man!"

Wu Xiangwen raised his head slightly and looked at these people with disdain. He was so angry and funny.

"The imperial court will not do anything to quarrel with the prairie people. That would be tantamount to self-destruction."

Wu Xiangwen sneered and said: "Facts will definitely prove that my theory is correct and my vision will not be wrong."

"Maybe!"

Du Ning does not deny it, but he does not agree with it either.

Because whether it is marriage or surrender, it is just a way. There is no right or wrong.

What matters is the results.

As for the result that has not happened, it is always just an unknown quantity.

Everyone continued to chat, but as they chatted, everyone's expressions became even worse.

So, everyone stopped talking and took a break.

"Excuse me, Mr. Du Ning, is Mr. Du here?"

A young seventh-grade Jinshi came here and started looking for Du Ning.

"Dumou, I've met my dear friend," Du Ning stood up and said.

"I have admired Mr. Du's name for a long time. I am Zhuang Shouren, a student in the Jinshi class. I have met Mr. Du."

Zhuang Shouren bowed to Du Ning.

"Brother Zhuang, you're welcome." Du Ning returned the greeting.

"I have long admired Mr. Du's name, and would like to ask him to write some poems and articles." Zhuang Shouren said with a smile.

Speaking of poetry and articles, everyone knows that Du Ning has considerable strengths in this area.

Therefore, even if a Jinshi asked Du Ning for advice on poetry and articles, no one would think it was strange.

"Don't take it seriously. If there is anything we can discuss together," Du Ning said modestly.

"Actually, I would like to invite Mr. Du to a teahouse in the capital for tea. The environment there is nice. I wonder if Mr. Du can give me a favor?"

"This..."

Du Ning hesitated, feeling a little uneasy as he was invited to drink tea for no reason.

Zhuang Shouren seemed to have figured out what Du Ning was thinking, so he said, "There is a Yuxiang Tea House near the Guoxue Palace, and the Yuxiang Tea there is famous far and wide."

Du Ning thought that since it was a teahouse near the Guoxue Palace, he felt a lot more relieved.

Moreover, he felt that Zhuang Shouren had no ill intentions towards him and seemed to be sincere in making friends, so it was not easy to refute the other person's face.

The way for scholars to make friends with scholars is either wine or tea.

Usually, they exchange poems and songs in the name of tea, which is very elegant.

Even if someone wanted to harm him, he would never be so stupid as to choose to be near the Guoxue Palace. This place is under the noses of all the saints.

"Thanks to Brother Zhuang's kindness, I would rather be respectful than obey."

Du Ning also agreed.

"Everyone, I'll excuse you for now."

"Master Du, please excuse me."

After saying goodbye to the students in the Juren class, Du Ning followed Zhuang Shouren to the Yuxiang Pavilion outside the Guoxue Palace to have tea together.

Most of the people who came to Yuxianglou for tea were scholars from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Du Ning could see several familiar people, but he just couldn't call them by name.
