Chương 82: Chapter 82
What's the most important thing in this world?
Of course, it's my character.
Shen Lang, you're trying to ruin my character!
This is a life and death feud!
Zhu Wenhua gritted his teeth and said, "My friends, gather everyone you can. We're going to the City Lord's Residence to seek justice. As scholars, we have the responsibility to get rid of the filth and righteousness. We're going to Lanshan City's scholars to have a bright future. "
Zheng Changnian immediately understood that Zhu Wenhua wanted to gather people to cause trouble and force the City Lord to ban the sale of Shen Lang's book.
When the few scholars heard this, they were instantly overjoyed.
We're going to be rich again!
Every time this happened, Zhu Wenhua would pay according to the number of people he could gather. The more people he could gather, the more money he would pay.
Zhu Wenhua didn't have much else, but he had money.
In just a short hour, Zhu Wenhua had gathered more than 200 scholars behind him and they headed towards the City Lord's Residence.
"Shen Lang, I'll make sure that your book has no place in Lanshan City, or even the entire Yangwu County and Nujiang County."
"So what if your book is selling well? I'll just ban it. "
…
Lanshan City Lord Li Fang had two books in front of him.
One was Zhu Wenhua's "Mandarin Duck Dreams", and the other was Shen Lang's "The Legend of the Romance of the Plum Blossom".
He first read the second volume of Mandarin Duck Dream.
He didn't want to read it at first, but his daughter and wife read it.
Not only that, his wife even told him the story in bed, so he had to read it.
After reading it, City Lord Li Fang couldn't help but praise.
This Zhu Wenhua was indeed impressive.
Although the book talked about the relationship between a man and a woman, it also touched on the political struggles of the country. Be it the writing or the construction of the plot, it was the best of the best.
He was indeed the most popular scholar in the city.
No wonder all the women were mesmerized by it and went crazy over it.
Then, Li Fang picked up Shen Lang's book, "Boundless Plum Breeze".
When he saw the cover, he frowned.
Utterly vulgar.
When he looked at the title of the book, his impression of it was even worse.
She was trying to please the crowd with her seductive charm.
The City Lord flipped to the first page with disdain in his heart.
After reading the first paragraph, his brows relaxed.
After reading the first page, he was in high spirits.
After that, he couldn't stop even if he wanted to!
Good!
Good book!
That was great!
Exquisite beyond compare!
Such words and poems could only be written by someone with great wisdom.
What a pity, what a pity!
Such a classic book was actually sold to those vulgar people.
Were they even worthy of reading such an article?
Could these vulgar people at the bottom of society understand it?
You should just go and look at your erotic paintings. How dare you come and look at our "Golden Vase: Endless Plum Romance". You really have no self-awareness at all.
Only people like me who have been tempered and tortured in the field of power can appreciate each other and understand the beauty of this book.
What a great book!
Originally, Lord Li Fang was interested in Zhu Wenhua's "Mandarin Duck Dreams" and felt that it was not bad.
But now, he felt that it was just a pile of shit.
Too childish, too deliberate, too pretentious, too pretentious.
He even started to doubt his own taste.
What's going on?
Is it because I've been immersed in politics for too long and have been ravaged by reality so much that my taste in literature has deteriorated?
I can even bear to read Zhu Wenhua's "Mandarin Duck Dreams"?
It was as if a certain handsome young man had been holding back for too long and went into a dimly lit shop on the side of the road.
After that, he entered the sage mode and recalled the wrinkles on the auntie's face. He was filled with regret and felt slightly nauseous.
That was too scary!
I haven't read for a few years and my taste has deteriorated to such an extent.
People must read, read more, read good books.
Thus, Lord Li Fang used two fingers to pick up Zhu Wenhua's "Mandarin Duck Dreams" volume 2 and threw it to the side. He even wiped his hands with his sleeves.
Then, he flipped open Shen Lang's "Boundless Romance of the Plum Blossom" and read it with great interest.
It's really … too comfortable.
These words, these sentences, are books that people of high status like us should read.
But as he read, Lord Li Fang felt a little awkward.
Because … his stomach felt a little warm from reading?
Why not go and rest with his concubine after reading till here?
And at this moment, there was a commotion outside.
Someone even started to beat the drum.
City Lord Li Fang was instantly enraged. Who is this? A bad mood in the middle of the night.
At this moment, his advisor rushed in and said, "Lord, it's not good. There are a few hundred scholars attacking the City Lord's residence."
City Lord Li Fang frowned and the hair on his neck stood up.
What was the scariest thing to be an official?
Mass incidents.
Especially when scholars caused trouble, it was the most troublesome.
"What's going on?" City Lord Li Fang said, "Is there some injustice in the examination, or is there a bully who beat someone to death?"
Immediately after, he asked a crucial question.
"Who's the leader?"
Advisor said, "The great scholar Zhu Wenhua."
Instantly, City Lord Li Fang's nervous state disappeared without a trace.
He laughed coldly in his heart.
"Let them in." City Lord Li Fang said, "Not all of them, at most five people."
…
After a while, Zhu Wenhua brought the four fiercest scholars in. All of them had the title of Elementary Scholar. Of course, they were his four lackeys.
To be honest, Zhu Wenhua felt superior in front of City Lord Li Fang.
After all, he was the young master of Lanshan Viscount's residence. Even if his title wasn't high, he was still an old noble with a fief.
Although he was actively trying to get close to the forces of the new government, this didn't stop him from feeling proud that his ancestors were much richer than him.
Moreover, he was already a High Scholar, he didn't have to bow to officials.
"Greetings, Lord Li." Zhu Wenhua cupped his hands.
"Greetings, Lord Li." The four Elementary Scholars behind him bowed.
Lanshan City Lord Li Fang said, "Young Master Zhu, what's the matter?"
Zhu Wenhua said, "Master Li, please seek justice for the people of the city and seek justice for the literary world of Lanshan. Let the Sage's learning be clear."
Li Fang frowned.
He hated people like this the most. They threw hats at him.
And each hat was bigger than the other, as if he was always holding justice in his hands.
The key was that I, Li Fang, had done this 20 years ago.
Everyone would have the same feeling when they thought back to themselves 20 years ago.
Idiot!
"What's the matter?" City Lord Li Fang said coldly.
Zhu Wenhua took out Shen Lang's' Boundless Breeze and Moon in a Golden Vase 'and said, "Lord Li, please seal this book and arrest the person who printed it. Also, burn all the books and search the printing workshop."
Zhu Wenhua only talked about the book printer and didn't mention anything about arresting Shen Lang.
Because everyone knew that arresting a Count's son and son-in-law for a book was asking to be humiliated.
City Lord Li Fang laughed coldly in his heart. So it was because of this.
He stroked his beard and said, "Oh? Why? "
Zhu Wenhua said, "This book is vulgar and unsightly. It tarnishes the knowledge of the saints. Not only does it poison people's hearts, but it also corrupts society's morals. It must be completely banned."
"Oh?" Li Fang picked up the book and flipped a few pages. He said, "Does this book deny the doctrine of the saints?"
Zhu Wenhua frowned. Who would be so stupid to explicitly deny the doctrine of the saints in the book?
City Lord Li Fang asked again, "Then does this book contain any attacks on the government?"
Of course not.
City Lord Li Fang said, "There's nothing here and nothing there. Why should I ban it?"
Zhu Wenhua said coldly, "Vulgar and vulgar, isn't that enough?"
City Lord Li Fang squinted his eyes and said, "There are many books that are even more vulgar and vulgar than this. There is no law in the State of Yue that prohibits erotic novels between men and women. Even erotic books can be sold, let alone this book."
Zhu Wenhua said, "Then how dare this book allude to me. It's completely tarnishing and trampling on my reputation. Isn't this against the law?"
"Are you against the law?" City Lord Li Fang said to Youyou, "Besides, where did this book allude to you?"
Zhu Wenhua flipped to a certain page. Inside was a paragraph where High Official Ximen was favoring Zhu Wenshan.
He pointed at this paragraph and said, "Look, isn't this Zhu Wenshan allude to me? Isn't it just tarnishing my reputation? "
City Lord Li Fang said, "Isn't this character called Zhu Wenshan? What does it have to do with you? We have so many Chinese characters, it's normal to accidentally have the same name. "
Zhu Wenhua's gaze turned cold.
City Lord Li Fang's attitude was not right. She was obviously siding with Shen Lang.
"City Lord Li, what do you mean by this? Are you clearly siding with Shen Lang?" Zhu Wenhua said coldly.
Li Fang said, "High Scholar Zhu, I advise you to be more broad-minded. Don't be jealous of the talented. Just because someone else's book is better than yours, you want to ban him. What right do you have? "
This was a slap to his face.
Zhu Wenhua's face instantly turned ugly.
"City Lord Li, what right do you have to say that?" Zhu Wenhua said, "In terms of poetry and writing, how can Shen Lang's book compare to my book?"
City Lord Li Fang sneered disdainfully, "Indeed, Lang Ling Xiao Sheng's book, Endless Plum Breeze, cannot be compared to your Mandarin Duck Dreams."
As soon as she said this, Zhu Wenhua showed a smug smile.
City Lord Li Fang continued, "If that's the case, it's completely tarnishing Shen Lang's book. This is a classic that only appears once in a hundred years. How can it be compared to some vulgar book? "
Slap slap slap slap!
The air seemed to be filled with the crisp sound of slapping.
Zhu Wenhua's chest was about to explode.
What right do you have to say that?
How good is my writing? How good is my poetry? How good is my book?
How dare you say that my book is vulgar?
You dog official, I'm afraid you have eyes but can't see.
Li Fang's expression revealed a trace of sincerity as she said, "Young Master Zhu, I advise you to calm down and read the book 'Boundless Romance of the Golden Vase'. It's really … amazing. The cynicism in the book, the insight into the affairs of the world, it's simply breathtaking. I can tell you this, once you understand this book, it will be of great benefit to you. "
"Pfft!" Zhu Wenhua was disdainful.
I'm already brimming with talent and knowledge, and you want me to read this rubbish book by Shen Lang?
What a joke.
But this City Lord Li Fang was going to protect Shen Lang to the end.
Zhu Wenhua said indifferently, "City Lord's actions, I'm afraid it will disappoint the scholars in Lan Shan City."
This, was a naked threat.
If City Lord Li Fang did not give him an explanation, these few hundred scholars would cause trouble.
Or besiege the City Lord's residence, or go on strike.
In short, money makes the world go round. Ordering a few hundred scholars to cause trouble was the easiest way.
These young scholars were the stupidest, as long as someone took the lead, there would be people following.
"Zhu Wenhua, what are you trying to do?" City Lord Li Fang asked coldly.
"Haha ….." Zhu Wenhua laughed, "Since Lord Li cannot stand up for the scholars in Lan Shan City, then we will seek justice for ourselves."
City Lord Li Fang picked up a brush and drew a line on the white paper.
"Do not besiege the City Lord's residence, do not besiege the school!" Li Fang said indifferently, "Once you cross this line, I will arrest you on sight."
With this, the four scholars behind Zhu Wenhua shrunk their necks.
Getting paid to do things was one thing, but compared to their own safety and future, it was nothing.
Zhu Wenhua said, "Do you think I am such an impolite person?"
Then, he said loudly, "The culprit behind this book is Deng Xian's Spring Bookstore. For the sake of the righteousness of the literary world, for the sake of Lanshan City, everyone, follow me to smash this bookstore and burn all the copies of 'Endless Breeze of Plum in a Golden Vase'."
Then, Zhu Wenhua took the lead and went out.
A few hundred scholars followed him excitedly, heading towards Deng Xian's bookstore.
"Let's go, let's smash Spring Bookstore!"
"Let's burn this Great Poisonous Grass written by Shen Lang!"
After Zhu Wenhua left, the advisor walked in and said, "Sir, why didn't you stop Zhu Wenhua from causing trouble? Instead, you added fuel to the fire? "
City Lord Li Fang said, "Test the quality of this Son-in-law Shen Lang, he should be a wonderful person. If he can't even withstand this little storm, won't I be disappointed?"
…
Inside Deng Xian's Spring Bookstore.
"Shen, will Zhu Wenhua and the rest come?" Deng Xian asked excitedly and nervously.
Shen Lang smiled, "Yes, definitely!"
He had set up an ABC package for Zhu Wenhua ten days ago.
There will be one that suits you, and one that can kill you!
Then, Shen Lang asked, "Has everything been arranged?"
Deng Xian said, "According to Young Master's orders, everything has been arranged. If Zhu Wenhua comes, I guarantee that he will be killed. "
Shen Lang said, "It's impossible to kill him completely, but half dead is fine!"
