Chapter 56: The Sword of Officialdom(1/2)
Hedao Mansion.
Tang Hedu, who was chatting with river officials in the courtyard, suddenly changed his expression, jumped up suddenly, and jumped to the roof.
He looked at the sky above the Yamen and could see the writings written by Du Ning.
"Bold maniac!"
Governor Tang He had an angry look on his face. He had never thought that Du Ning would dare to write an article in front of the Yamen Gate, including the Hedao Prefecture.
This simply nailed their Hedao Mansion to the pillar of shame in Yun Kingdom's history.
Other Hedao officials also sensed the writing, and some of their strength was already rushing towards Hedao Mansion, causing their expressions to change instantly.
"Who is so impudent as to dare to criticize Hedao Mansion!"
"The name in the signature of the article seems to be Du Ning from Hanyi Club."
"Who is Du Ning? He still dares to criticize our officials. He is simply trying to shake a tree with his teeth. He is not overestimating his own capabilities!"
Some officials showed contempt and felt very disapproving.
The next moment, Governor Tang He saw the official sword appearing in the sky above the Yamen.
"Haha... the sword of officialdom! It's the sword of officialdom!"
"Sister Du Ning, today I will show you the power of the government!"
"Officials of Hedao Prefecture are willing to lend a helping hand to the prefect Wang!"
After the words fell, a force of talent appeared in the sky above Hedao Mansion and merged into the Sword of Guandao.
The power of the official sword has skyrocketed, as if it can tear the world apart.
Du Ning raised his head and looked at the sword of officialdom. It was the condensed talent of officials and seemed to have the power to resist writing.
With a "squeak" sound, the yamen door opened.
Wang Yang led a group of officials and walked out angrily.
"Du Ning, I will give you a chance. As long as you kneel down, kowtow, admit your mistake, and take the initiative to withdraw the article, I will not hold you accountable for slandering the Yamen. Otherwise, I will use the sword of officialdom to kill you for the article.
Broken Palace!"
Wang Yang raised his head slightly, showing a sarcastic look, and his tone was even more commanding and unquestionable.
"The writing has been made and will never be taken back."
Du Ning said loudly: "Please give me a helping hand from all the students in Nanping Mansion!"
Li Changsheng immediately said: "Li Changsheng, a student from Nanping Prefecture, is willing to write with Du Ning!"
"I would like to follow Du Ning's writing!"
Many scholars around spoke.
Many strands of talent and power appeared, condensed into writing brushes one after another, and integrated into the writing articles written by Du Ning.
"Boom!"
The writing and writing are full of talent, and a ray of light shines on the Yamen, and another ray of light shines on the Hedao Mansion.
"Well done! These dog officials are so heartbroken! They deserve to be criticized!"
"Fortunately, they are still officials of the imperial court. It is simply an embarrassment to the imperial court!"
"Criticize them! Let them be infamy for eternity!"
Many people are filled with indignation, and many students speak out for them, so naturally they also want to encourage them.
The talents of many officials boiled like boiling water, and they felt as if they had been severely provoked and threatened.
"Rebellion! You have rebelled!"
"You are so brave, how dare you gather a crowd to rebel!"
"Du Ning, what crime do you deserve!"
Wang Yang looked at Du Ning. Although he was angry on the surface, he was secretly happy in his heart.
The more Du Ning incites people to target the Yamen, the greater his guilt will be.
In this way, the Yamen will have a good reputation, and it is logical to kill Du Ning.
"It's not about rebellion, it's about conforming to the people's opinions and opinions!" Du Ning looked at Wang Yang and said.
"Shameless words!"
Wang Yang said: "Since you are stubborn, don't blame me for being rude to you. Today, I will let you know the power of the official sword!"
As the words fell, the sword of officialdom trembled slightly and struck at Du Ning's writing, and his majestic talent shrouded him.
At the same time, a huge talent brush appeared in the sky and wrote the word "cut" in the sky.
"Boom!"
The two forces collided in the air, and the situation changed in an instant.
"Click!"
The brush of great talent cracked instantly.
Seeing this scene, Du Ning frowned.
The expressions of many students became extremely ugly.
The power of writing is no match for the sword of officialdom!
Most of the students present are top-ranking students, ninth-ranking scholars, and eighth-ranking candidates.
Within the yamen, most are Jinshi and Hanlin, and the sword of officialdom formed by their talents has a very powerful power.
Governor Tang He watched all this quietly and thought to himself: "Du Ning gathered a crowd to rebel, and his crime cannot be punished. Today next year will be your memorial day!"
"Haha..."
Wang Run was elated and laughed loudly: "Du Ning, with your talents, you are no match for the sword of officialdom. I advise you not to make any more senseless resistance. Today you gathered a crowd to rebel."
You should be punished with the death penalty. If you are willing to plead guilty and obey the law, the Yamen will remember your past achievements and spare your life."
Many officials also laughed wildly, looking at Du Ning and others with expressions full of sarcasm.
"Really? Then add us!"
A voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone followed the sound and saw that it was Dongfang Xiong who was walking quickly with a group of Hanlin and Jinshi.
"It's the Lord of the Academy! There are also teachers and editors from the Fuwen Academy!"
"They must be here to help us. This is great!"
The common people are very excited. The more scholars who participate in writing, the stronger the power against the sword of officialdom will be.
"I've met Mr. Dongfang." Du Ning cupped his hands.
"Young master Du, you're welcome. We're a step late."
Dongfang Xiong looked ashamed. Du Ning dared to criticize the Yamen regarding the case of corruption in Hedao Mansion, but they, the Hanlin and bachelors, were indifferent. After all, they were no longer passionate young people.
When Wang Yang saw the appearance of Dongfang Xiong and others, his eyes became extremely cold and he snorted coldly.
"Mr. Dongfangyuan, you are going to come to the Yamen to rebel! Be careful that your black gauze hat is not guaranteed!" Wang Yang warned.
"If you can't share the people's worries, then it's okay not to wear this black gauze hat!" Dongfang Xiong said.
"Well said! Mr. Dongfangyuan is noble and upright, and is a role model for the younger generation like us!"
"This is the character of a well-deserved literati! A true scholar!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
All the students were overjoyed.
Wang Run stepped forward and said: "Mr. Dongfangyuan, younger generations respect you as the leader of the literary world in Nanping Mansion. But now you are colluding with Du Ning and others regardless of right and wrong. You are simply unworthy of being the king of the literary academy."
"Shut up!"
Dongfang Xiong said angrily: "Wang Run, as the leader of the Jieying Society, you don't want to benefit the people, but collude with corrupt officials. It is simply a shame for scholars in Nanping Prefecture. I will report it to the National Academy of Sciences and have you dismissed."
Fame in the liberal arts academy!"
"You dare!"
Wang Run's expression changed greatly. As a scholar, if he was expelled from his official position, it would be difficult for him to display his ambitions in the court.
"Mr. Dongfangyuan, if you go against the Yamen, your reputation will be ruined. You have to think clearly!" Wang Run yelled angrily.
"Corrupt officials are the enemies of scholars in the world, and I have a clear conscience!"
Dongfang Xiong looked up at the writing in the sky and said loudly: "Dongfang Xiong, the president of Nanping Academy of Arts, is willing to write with Du Ning!"
"I am willing to follow Du Ning's writing!"
The scholars behind them spoke one after another.
