Chapter 145: Back to the Academy(1/2)
The original plan was to climb the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuchang for a few days, but Liu Mingge, who had eaten a meal of fish, was not interested at all.
"That's all, Black Pearl will climb the building for me in Wuchang City and settle all these people. I will follow this kid to Xiangyang and go back to the academy to visit."
"Academy? Which academy is Mr. Liu going to?" Li Xiaofei asked
"There is only one Nanyang Academy in Xiangyang, you stupid boy!"
"Mr. Liu actually came from Nanyang Academy?" Li Xiaofei was even more surprised, because in his mind, people in Nanyang Academy were all rigid and serious bookworms, and they couldn't teach people like Liu Mingge.
"Just by looking at you, I can tell what kind of ruin the academy has been to those nerds taught by my senior brother! Needless to say, the current gate of the academy must be a pair of extremely symmetrical stone lions and red lacquered gates.
They also chopped down all the trees. No students hurriedly swam naked in the pond behind the academy! Well, the stealing of peanuts and cucumbers is gone, and the fights are gone." When Liu Mingge mentioned the academy, his eyes began to twinkle.
Light, talks a lot
"Well, Mr. Liu, I have only been there once. You have calculated the interior and exterior decorations exactly. As for students, it is said that they all follow the rules. Even the size of a step is stipulated. They are all good students, and everyone recognizes them very much.
!" Li Xiaofei tried hard to recall his impression of the academy. It is true that the academy is very well-behaved now, so Liu Jianlian found such a group of people to help him govern the country.
"Bah! What kind of good students are these? Do you still recognize them? They are just a bunch of puppets and clay sculptures. How can such people calm the world in today's troubled times? It's just that you are more stupid, and you actually brought a group of nerds to the sky! Really!
This is so stupid!" Liu Mingge started to get excited. This was a scene that Li Xiaofei had never imagined.
"Mr. Liu must have been expelled from the academy back then! He was so excited when he mentioned the academy." Li Xiaofei refused to miss this opportunity to tease Liu Mingge and deliberately provoked him.
"Bah, my master had appointed me to be the cave master of the academy. For the sake of a woman, I gave up and left the academy! Otherwise, how could the academy be like this!"
"It turns out that Mr. Liu is a person with stories, haha, I'm very interested in this!" Li Xiaofei laughed.
"Don't listen to Liu Bian's story. He was only a teenager back then. How could he give up his position as the cave master of the academy for a woman? The truth is that his senior brother and disciples were jealous of him and drove him away together!" Black Pearl remained silent.
Exposed Liu Mingge's old background
"You woman, why don't you always understand the style? Why don't I tell you a love story to purify the young man's mind?" Liu Mingge was exposed by the black pearl, and his mood calmed down.
"Mr. Liu, to tell you the truth, our current emperor is very fond of people from the academy. If you come back like this, I'm afraid you will make a big fuss." Li Xiaofei began to worry about Liu Mingge
"Really? As far as I know, the current emperor trusts you more. In addition, when I go to see the emperor, I will definitely show my true ability to persuade him! Don't worry!" Liu Mingge was still confident when talking about meeting the emperor.
full
"Haha, Mr. Liu is a great talent in the world, of course there is no problem, but if the emperor re-appoints Mr. Liu, the people in the academy will not agree. They are all ministers now."
"You have a pure heart. In order to check and balance you old people, the current emperor has used a large number of nerds from the academy to restrain you. Doesn't he need people to check and balance the people in the academy?" Liu Mingge's confidence lies in his belief in Liu
Jane needs him to control the people in the academy
"Shouldn't it be better for us and the academy to restrict each other? Why would the emperor bother to bring in a third party?" Li Xiaofei felt that it was most reasonable for the generals, led by Chen Jiajun, to restrict the academy.
"You don't understand the emperor's mind, let alone what balance means. When two forces fight, they will fight to the death. But with a third, fourth or even fifth party, everyone will have scruples and be afraid of being taken in by others.
Use the gun to achieve balance. In fact, the reason is very simple. Two legs cannot hold up the table, but three legs and four legs can. That's the reason! At present, there are actually four forces: Chen Jiajun, academy, internal prison, and harem, but
The inner prison and the harem are currently too weak to affect the two forces in front. If a man with both civil and military skills appears at this time with thousands of troops and dozens of ships, do you think the emperor will reuse him?"
"It seems that I am really a novice. You scholars have different ideas in your heads. I think only people like Mr. Liu can control the people in the academy. Chen Jiajun currently only has the power to parry but not to fight back!"
Li Xiaofei smiled helplessly, feeling that he had too little knowledge and was completely unaware of the battles in the court. If he got involved one day, he might not survive more than three days.
"If it weren't for being able to travel around the world with Liu Xuan in the future, I wouldn't be too lazy to help you unify this messed up world. This will shorten my life by twenty years!"
Ten days later, Li Xiaofei and Liu Mingge arrived
After arriving in Xiangyang, he went directly to see Liu Jian without even returning home.
Liu Mingge did not kneel down when he saw Liu Jian, but Li Xiaofei felt a little embarrassed after he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this is Mr. Liu Mingge Liu. He has been traveling overseas for many years, and now he has come to your Majesty with fifty ships and a lot of supplies!"
"It's a pleasure to meet Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu behaves well and he looks like a master at first glance!" Although Liu Jian was a little unhappy, he didn't care about these etiquettes when he heard that he had brought a fleet and supplies.
"No, no, your Majesty, I am a commoner who eats whole grains. I am just a layman. I don't think you will be surprised if I didn't give you a big gift today! Now that I'm here, I still have something to say to your Majesty alone!"
After Liu Mingge finished speaking, he crossed his arms and looked at Li Xiaofei. Li Xiaofei was a little surprised that Mr. Liu actually wanted to move away from him. I really couldn't guess what he was thinking.
Liu Jian understood it well: "Xiao Fei, you have been working hard for more than half a year. There will be a lot of rewards at the meeting tomorrow. It's getting late today, so you should go home quickly!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I am willing to devote myself to Your Majesty until my death!" Li Xiaofei had already said this sentence so familiarly that it popped up today.
"Go home quickly and pick up the baby. If you get back late, your two wives will beat you. Don't do the same thing as me!"
Li Xiaofei went home knowingly.
When he got home, he burst into tears again, scolded and cried, and Li Xiaofei had to kneel on the washboard to reply.
Someone had already reported Liu Mingge's return to Shen Yuanhao and other people in the academy. It wasn't that the internal prison leaked the secret, but that a man with a five-foot-long sword on his back would be very arrogant wherever he went. If Liu Mingge hadn't been taller
Nearly nine feet tall, the sword is extremely uncoordinated on the back.
In addition, since Liu Mingge entered the city, he had taken fruits and snacks from roadside vendors and left without paying him. Li Xiaofei was throwing money behind him, which had already caused a sensation in the whole city.
"No! Liu Mingge is back!"
"What? Uncle Master is still alive?"
"Isn't there no news about him? It was said that he was buried in the sea. Could this be a fake?"
"There is no other person with that long sword and way of doing things! Others can't learn from it!"
Everyone in Nanyang Academy was busy, and they were already important ministers of the small imperial court of Xiliang. They could act as if Mount Tai had collapsed in front of Emperor Liu Jian without changing their expressions, but when they heard Liu Mingge's name, they all
Everyone panicked.
"Don't panic, he is a traitor in the academy! We uphold the right path, why are we afraid of him?" Shen Yuanhao is the dean after all, and is much stronger than the others.
"Yes, yes, he is a heretic!"
"But we can't defeat him?"
"We are decent and reasonable. If we don't take action first, he won't take action. Let's meditate and adjust our breath quickly. Let's stop with silence!" Shen Yuanhao seemed to know Liu Mingge better and seemed to be confident.
"Then let's pack up and go back to the academy?" Chen Zhengnan thought that he should go back to the academy before Liu Mingge.
"No, just wait for him at Shangshu Mansion. If we go first, wouldn't it look like we are stage frightened?" Shen Yuanhao immediately refused.
However, this matter was not up to them. Immediately, an internal eunuch came to deliver Liu Jian's oral instructions: "Your Majesty, please order Shangshu and everyone to go to the academy immediately. There must be no mistakes!"
Shen Yuanhao and others knelt on the ground and were stunned for a moment, then quickly thanked them.
Looking at the retreating figure of the inner prisoner, Shen Yuanhao sighed: "It seems that he has already anticipated our thoughts. Everyone, good and evil cannot coexist. You must not bow to him today! Let's go to the academy together!"
The more people there would be, the stronger the momentum would be. Everyone thought so, so all the people who were officials in the court followed. However, Shen Yuanhao knew in his heart that facing a person like Liu Mingge, there was no use in large numbers.
When Liu Mingge came out of Liu Jian's place, he had an imperial edict and a token in his hand, and went straight to the academy.
Back at the academy, the four nurses at the door stretched out their hands to stop Liu Mingge. Liu Mingge entered the door in a flash. The four nurses hurriedly rubbed their eyes and looked inside again. Liu Mingge was no longer there.
"Did that person go in just now?"
"There is someone preparing to go in. It can't be so fast?"
"Maybe we were wrong. There are so many people coming and going at this door!"
"I must have seen it wrong!"
Liu Mingge carried a long sword and walked into the main hall. Several disciples came out to interrogate him. He took out the token given by the emperor and everyone quickly left.
The two saints Confucius and Mencius and the great sages of the academy were enshrined on the shrine in the main hall of the academy. Liu Mingge took off his sword and kowtowed several times respectfully.
After kowtowing, Liu Mingge stood up, picked up his sword, and sat on the main seat where the cave master usually sat. Several disciples serving here panicked: "Dear guest, only the cave master can sit in this seat. Please give it up!"
"
"Although you have the emperor's order
Cards, but you can’t mess around in the academy!”
Liu Mingge jumped up into the air and kicked the chair on the throne into several pieces: "It's just a broken chair. You guys are really stupid in reading!"
"How could you destroy academy property casually?"
"This is the position of the Chancellor. Let me tell you, this matter is not over today!"
"If you want to cause trouble in the academy, our eight hundred disciples will definitely fight you to the end!"
Liu Mingge sat down cross-legged with his sword in front of him and laughed, "Hey, this dignified academy is as good as any sect in the world. It was indeed taught by my philistine senior brother Yang Hengxin, haha."
"You crazy guy! How dare you insult our master!"
"Come here, arrest this madman!"
Suddenly dozens of disciples came at the door holding rulers and wooden sticks to arrest Liu Mingge.
Liu Mingge sneered: "Do you want to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors? Is it possible that no one in this academy knows my name, Liu Mingge?"
As soon as they heard Liu Mingge announcing his home address, everyone quickly took a few steps back and held the ruler stick in their hands tighter.
Of course Liu Mingge understood what was going on. His brothers and nephews had been slandering him over the years, and the name Liu Mingge had become the number one villain in the minds of teachers and students at Nanyang Academy.
Just when Liu Mingge was about to educate these disciples, the guards dispersed one after another.
"Uncle Master has come a long way, and my nephews are late to pick me up. Please forgive me!" Shen Yuanhao arrived with the others.
Originally Shen Yuanhao was just being polite, but Liu Mingge glanced at everyone with eyes wide: "Did you hear that your master calls me uncle? Just now those incompetent disciples came to bully the master and destroy the ancestors.
I hit the right cheek thirty times with my left hand, and the left cheek thirty times with my right hand!”
