The ignorant is fearless!

It was founded during the Zhenghe period of the Northern Song Dynasty, a place where the Neo-Confucianism flourished, and a holy place for scholars in Jiangnan. It was named after the first ruling party of the Ming Dynasty. Donglin Academy, second only to the Confucius Mansion in Qufu, was really burned.

It's burned, it's burned like that!

The firemakers will be proud and do not think that they have made any mistake.

It’s just a college. In order to understand the dangers of Eunuch Wei, what can I do if I burn ten academies? What can I do if I burn the government office or the governor’s office?

Seeing his subordinates setting fires happily and looking at the Donglin Academy without any respect, Zheng Duo figured out one thing, that is, why Eunuch Wei was so illiterate that he was illiterate.

My father-in-law is foresight!

Zheng Duo has a deep understanding of this. Although he is a Korean, he is also a scholar, and he can even be said to be a Confucian scholar.

Therefore, whether it was participating in the destruction of Confucius in Teng County or ordering a fire, he had hesitation and confusion in his heart.

However, his subordinates who didn't know a single word did not have this psychological burden.

They did a lot of fun and were very happy.

If it were a person who reads and reads, it would be not so easy.

This is the difference, and it is also Eunuch Wei's foresight.

Looking at the fire he ordered to light in front of him, Zheng Duo smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The one who is the one who is in the world, is the first to Donglin.

The North Koreans also know this sentence.

Zheng Duo had no intention of questioning Eunuch Wei's unique recruitment ideas, nor did he question how Eunuch Wei could not get along with the children of sages. Now he had to save Eunuch Wei.

"Disassemble all the pavilions and railings nearby for me, put them on them, burn them for me, and burn them hard!"

"Take all those students aside to avoid getting in the way!... Damn, I told them to open the door before, but now they all ran out like rabbits!"

"Don't you have the guts? If you have the guts, go in and stay!"

“…”

Zheng Duo, who was riding on the horse and watching the fire in front of him, abandoned the unreasonable concerns in his mind, was full of pleasure and cursing. Under his shout, his subordinates dismantled everywhere like bandits, and all the ones that could be dismantled were removed, and all the ones that could be burned were burned.

The students of the academy who were forced out by the fire knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. Many people wanted to rush up to put out the fire, but the fire was too fierce and could not be saved.

In the fire, the gate disappeared.

What disappeared with it was a couplet written by Mr. Donglin Gu Xiancheng - "The sound of wind and rain sounds, the sound of reading is heard; family affairs, national affairs, the world affairs, everything is concerned."

This couplet is not only Mr. Donglin’s earnest teaching to the students, but also the purpose of the academy.

Now, it disappeared in the fire.

The burning of the gate and the courtyard wall alone was not enough for the arsonists to stop. They rushed into the academy and ignited the fire everywhere.

Stone stele cemetery, Yimen, Lize Hall, Stele Pavilion, Daonan Temple...

The academies were swallowed up by the fire.

"You bandits, you bandits, you god-killing people, why do you burn my academy?"

A school teacher accused and cursed angrily. Hundreds of academy disciples gathered together, but they could not save the academy. They could only accuse these thugs dressed in robes of officers and soldiers.

"I can't stand the desks of my teachers and students!"

The grief-haired teacher was so excited that he wanted to rush up and beat the officers and soldiers who came from somewhere, but unfortunately, he was stopped halfway.

Zheng Duo looked at the teacher and the students around him who hated them to the core, and he really had nothing to say about these people.

Perhaps, this is just that the Tao is different and they don’t plan to each other.

He also disdained these unarmed scholars at all. Killing these people is like killing a chicken to him, but he would not kill anyone.

His purpose here was not to kill people, but to save people.

Zheng Duo stood there, looking at the burning Donglin Academy.

He wanted to turn around and ask the white-haired teacher and the academy students, what did his Eunuch Wei do wrong, and ask you Donglin Party members to mobilize so many people to shout and kill him.

But he didn't do this because he knew that these people certainly didn't know the truth, so it would be better not to ask them.

Moreover, he also knew that even if these people didn't know the truth, they would shout and kill Eunuch Wei.

Because Eunuch Wei is an eunuch.

The eunuch seems to be damned in the eyes of scholars.

But in the eyes of Zheng Duo and his subordinates, this is not the case.

The young Eunuch Wei saved them, and never did anything bad. He was a good father-in-law who cared about his subordinates very much and rewarded them clearly.

Therefore, this is worthy of their desperate service and swearing to protect him to the death.

Others are not important.

The white-haired teacher was still cursing loudly. Perhaps seeing that the robbers who set fire did not do anything to him, he couldn't help but curse even more.

I don’t know if it was because of my youth or because I was too excited, but in short, the old teacher fainted. The students thought the teacher was dead and couldn’t help but cry, and then accused the robbers who set fire to kill their teacher.

Zheng Duo turned his head and glanced, and his accusations against these students were a bit strange.

If you set fire, he will not harm anyone.

But at this moment, he was too lazy to say anything to these students, and he was ready to evacuate.

In fact, we can't blame Zheng Duo for ordering the academy to burn. If you want to blame, you can only blame the disciples of Donglin Academy for being too fast and actually locked the gate of the academy first. They also brought many heavy objects behind the door, posing a situation of dying with the academy.

This made Zheng Duo very anxious. He tried to ask his subordinates to push the door, but he couldn't open it. He used a knife to chop it. The damn academy gate was made of thousand-year-old wood and wrapped in iron sheets, which could not be opened in a short time.

The county government is far away, and Eunuch Wei is not aware of life and death. The main force of the infantry army has not yet entered the city. Zheng Duo cannot delay it, so he really has no other way.

So, he had to order a fire.

Only a fire can force people in the academy out, and only a fire can attract Wuxi City's gaze from the county government.

Donglin Academy is the old nest of Donglin Party members, and its foundation is. Eunuch Wei said it very clearly. If he had any trouble, he would look for Donglin Academy.

This means to surround Wei and save Zhao.

The fire became increasingly fierce, and the raging fire was no less than the fire in the mansion of the second prince Kong Er of Teng County.

I could faintly hear exclamations everywhere.

Zheng Duo believed that those who wanted to kill Eunuch Wei would definitely see this fire, and Eunuch Wei would also see it.

.....

Mr. Jing Yi was woken up by pinching, and his first sentence after waking up was to go back to the academy soon.

The gentlemen and disciples of the academy, who were already in chaos, hurriedly climbed the dragon downstairs.

The building was soon empty, and the gentlemen rushed back to the academy as if they had lost their parents.

On the street, there were still many people watching the fire in Donglin Academy stupidly.

Late in the night, the fire was like a guiding light, not only illuminating the county town, but also illuminating people's hearts.

This human heart is to put out a fire.

"The academy is burning, the academy is burning, everyone hurry up and put out the fire!"

There were sounds of firefighting everywhere, and the crowd quickly dissipated from around the county government and gathered towards the location of Donglin Academy.

Many people who went to put out the fire took buckets and basins. They ran to the academy anxiously and did not dare to stop at all.

Gao Panlong and his party were moving forward in difficulty in this messy crowd. If the disciples hadn't walked and shouted "Mr. Jing Yi is here, everyone will give in", I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to return to the academy in an hour.

No one called for the execution of the traitor temple and to seek justice.

The fire in the academy is at this moment, and everyone in the city is concerned about it.

…………….

At first, Wu Fuming thought that the fire suddenly lit up in the southeast was the fire on the county government, and his face turned pale. After hearing the people around him shouting that the Donglin Academy was on fire, he settled down. Then he was shocked again and said to Cao Wenyao in a lost voice: "This fire was not what our people did?"

Cao Wenyao was not very clear, but he felt that this matter must be related to their people. Otherwise, if he didn't burn it early or late, why would the academy start to burn at this critical moment?

Seeing Cao Wenyao hesitating, Wu Fuming shouted: "Oh no! Donglin Academy can't burn!"

"Why can't you burn it?"

Cao Wenyao stopped and looked at Wu Fuming in confusion. He didn't know the importance of Donglin Academy, but just said it was an ordinary academy.

Usually, the academy will burn after burning. What’s the point? What can I do if the second young master of the Kong family in Teng County can burn it? What can’t the academy not burn?

"Donglin Party!"

Wu Fuming pulled Cao Wenyao over and stuttered: "The first...the first minister is Donglin...the Donglin Party!"

"My husband of Fuqing?"

Cao Wenyao was stunned for a moment and understood what Wu Fuming meant. This person wanted to say that the current chief assistant Ye Xianggao was a member of the Donglin Party. If he knew who Donglin Academy was called to burn it, he would be able to spare it?!

Yes, Eunuch Wei and Master Ye must be incomparable. Their weight in the emperor is one heaven and one earth. Who really knows that Eunuch Wei ordered the burning of Donglin Academy, and how could he spare Eunuch Wei?
