Confucian and Taoist scholar

Cao Jing broke out in a cold sweat. He could say something to offend Du Ning. After all, Du Ning is a rising star. After all, his qualifications in the Holy Academy are higher than Du Ning, but he would never dare to embarrass Kong De.

Face.

Du Ning glanced at Kong De gratefully. If Cao Jing continued to press him step by step, his situation would become very embarrassing and even a dilemma.

Now that Kongde has stood up to support him, Du Ning has no worries at all and can boldly do it.

If you come up with the plan yourself, then you do have the obligation to fulfill the plan, and as a scholar of the human race, you should set an example for scholars.

So Du Ning said: "Although I can't guarantee that I can complete the task with 100% certainty, as a scholar of the human race, I will definitely try my best to do this. Even if unexpected circumstances arise,

I will try my best to make amends as much as possible and minimize the loss. This is the only promise I can make."

"Humph!"

Cao Jing showed a displeased look on his face, feeling very unwilling to let the Ke family miss the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, so he said: "Cao thinks that Mr. Du is the civil lord of our human race after all, and it would be too risky to go to the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom alone.

, I would like to suggest that some more scholars should be assigned to go together, so that we can be taken care of."

Kongde said: "Mr. Cao's words are reasonable. Why don't we select a few Hanlin from the semi-saint families in Yun State to follow Du Jun, and all actions will be obeyed by Du Jun's command."

Cao Jing immediately said: "My Ke family from Liao Kingdom..."

Du Ning impatiently interjected: "The scholars of the Ke family of the Liao Dynasty have failed more than they have accomplished. Except for the semi-saints, every one of the Ke family is a piece of shit. I will never associate with those things."
"Presumptuous!"

Cao Jing was furious, and it was a shame for Du Ning to interrupt him.

"My status is not lower than yours, so why should I be so presumptuous? If Mr. Cao insists on selecting scholars from the Ke family, I would rather not go to the Seven Islands Sea Country!" Du Ning said firmly.

"You...you..."

Cao Jing was extremely angry, "Du Jun, this matter is of great importance. You will never be allowed to act on your own initiative, let alone bring your personal grudges into it. I know that you have a grudge against the scholars of the Ke family of Liao Kingdom, but you also

You can't look down on them like this."

Du Ning snorted coldly, "Looking at the many aristocratic families in various countries, which scholar is not better than the Ke family? Fan Rulong of the Yun State, Fu Yue of the Ping State, Tian Feipeng of the Jing State, which one does not have a better view of the overall situation than the scholars of the Ke family? This book

Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey, so you must choose a scholar from the Ke family?"

"You...you..."

Cao Jing was so angry that his whole body was trembling. Du Ning actually scolded him in a roundabout way for being kicked in the head by a donkey. He showed no mercy to him at all, which was enough to make him a joke to the great Confucian representatives of various countries.

"Du Jun, you are going too far. I am recommending talents for the human race. How can you taint me like this?" Cao Jing said coldly.

"Is the one you recommended a talent? Take the example you mentioned of Ke Changzheng. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a stupid pig. He has no self-awareness at all. He has a high vision but a weak hand. He is strong on the outside and weak on the inside. Who the hell is he? He deserves to be a talent?

Do you dare to speak with your own literary courage?"

"I..."

Cao Jing wanted to prove it immediately with his literary courage, but he had to swallow the words as they came to his lips. Chief Ke is a genius who practices Confucianism, but he is definitely not a talent. Since his failure in the literary battle with Yue Tianyi last year

This proves that his vision is so short-sighted that he has no self-knowledge at all.

"I have met many scholars from the Ke family. Except for Ke Honglong, who was driven away by them, and he looks like a scholar, there are not many other good people. This is obvious to scholars from all over the world, so there is no need for me to do anything more.

Explain." Du Ning said disapprovingly.

Cao Jing was speechless. Although Du Ning's words were not pleasant to listen to, the reputation of the Ke family was really bad. Even if Du Ning agreed to let the Ke family accompany him, he would not be reused by the Holy Court.

Unless the Holy Court’s brains are also kicked by a donkey.

Some other great scholars from the Liao Kingdom's aristocratic families were also blushing. Seeing that the Ke family was scolded so badly by Du Ning alone, their faces were also shameless.

This is so embarrassing!

At the same time, they also hated the Ke family very much. If the scholars of the Ke family had not been so embarrassing and ruined the face of the Liao people, they would not have been able to stand upright and speak loudly in the Great Confucian Hall.

If today's great scholars from the Liao Kingdom recommend some Liao people to go on missions to the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom, not only will they be strongly opposed by Du Ning, but also by Fan Heshan, Conde and other great scholars from other countries.

If a country's reputation is ruined, it will not be reused in the Confucian Hall of the Holy Academy.

Besides, there are so many scholars from aristocratic families in various countries, why do we have to choose scholars from aristocratic families in Liao? Can’t other scholars? Are they worse than people from Liao?

Fu Shuyun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke: "Mr. Cao, please say less. We understand your feelings, but the situation in your country of Liao is quite special. For such an important task, it is better to participate less."

p>

A Jingguo scholar echoed: "If I were you, I should give advice from the perspective of the human race. Don't make it sound like only you Liao people can take on this important task. How can you make other families like us embarrassed?"

Cao Jing's expression changed. This great scholar gave him a big thumbs up and said hurriedly: "You misunderstood. Cao did not mean this."

"Then shut your mouth." The other party said rudely.

"Humph!"

Cao Jing saw that the situation could not develop in the direction he imagined, so he could only give up and continue to serve the Liao people.

Some great scholars from the Liao Kingdom sighed silently. They used to speak very loudly in the Great Confucian Hall, but now they are so humble that anyone present can scold them very rudely.

Fan Heshan and other great scholars from the Yun Kingdom are proud and proud. The literary world of the Yun Kingdom has been oppressed by the literary world of the Liao Kingdom for a long time. Since Du Ning came out to reverse the situation, the people of the Yun Kingdom have become more and more confident.

Nowadays, only when the great Confucian of Yun Kingdom speaks in the Great Confucian Hall can he speak loudly.

Kongde said: "The opinions that you gentlemen have just exchanged will be carefully considered by the Great Confucian Palace. Now one thing can be determined, that is, Du Jun is about to go to the Seven Islands Sea Country on behalf of the Holy Court, and for other accompanying personnel, the Holy Court needs

The re-screening will be conducted by Du Jun. The Confucianism and Taoism should not be high or low. I think that if Du Jun has a suitable candidate, he can recommend it to the Holy Academy."

The great scholars from various countries looked at Du Ning, hoping to get Du Ning's recommendation. After all, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make meritorious deeds.

"Since Mr. Kong asked me to recommend them, I will recommend a few scholars that I recognize. As for whether I agree or not, I don't have to say, you have to say."

After Du Ning finished speaking, he took up a pen and wrote down the names and identities of several people on the eucalyptus table. The other scholars also consciously avoided taking a peek.

But everyone can guess that either Tian Feipeng and Fu Yue are roommates, or they are scholars from the Fan family in Yun State, or they are scholars who share weal and woe with Du Ning in the Three Realms Mountains.

These scholars who have lived and died together are the most reliable, and they are the only ones who are most qualified to accompany Du Ning to the Seven Islands Sea Country.

If scholars from the Ke family are sent, if there is another conflict due to personal grudges, and the people of the Seven Islands Sea Country think that the mainland human race is not united, won't they be even more disgusted with the mainland human race?

After writing the recommendation list, Du Ning submitted it to Conde for browsing.

After reading this, Comte nodded slightly: "I have heard a little about these people's literary names, and they are also famous in the literary circles of various countries. I can consider it, but do you really think they can definitely help?"

After finishing speaking, he showed a little worry.

"At least they don't have bad intentions towards me, nor are they short-sighted rats. Their Confucianism and Taoism may not be high, but I can treat them with sincerity and have unswerving trust. They will definitely not insult the majesty of my mainland human race.

"Du Ning made a decisive decision.

"I understand. The Great Confucian Palace will accept the case seriously and will give a reply within three days. You should make more preparations during this time," Kongde said.

"I know."

Du Ning nodded lightly, and then said to everyone: "I am about to go to the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom. Before that, I want to announce something to everyone. I hope that the great scholars from all countries can bear witness."

"What's going on?" Comte asked curiously.

Du Ning looked at Cao Jing and said: "I have decided to set off tomorrow to the Guoxue Palace in the capital of the Liao Kingdom to fight for the country. Please Mr. Cao quickly convey this news to the Liao Academy and prepare ten Confucian, Taoist and Imperial Academy to fight."

p>

As soon as the words fell, the whole audience was shocked.

Du Ning actually wants to go to Liao Kingdom to fight!

And it’s still a country of civil war!

Then the Liao Kingdom would summon ten top scholars of Hanlin level across the country to engage in a literary battle with Du Ning.

All Confucian, Taoist, and Hanlin scholars in the Liao Kingdom, regardless of their status and origin, are qualified to challenge Du Ning.

Cao Jing's whole face turned dark instantly. In front of the great scholars of other countries, Du Ning declared that the civil war was against the Liao Kingdom. He simply didn't take the Liao Kingdom seriously.

This is a great provocation to all scholars in Liao!

And such a provocation is very effective. The Liao Kingdom must accept the challenge, and cannot lose, otherwise it will become the laughing stock of the entire human race.

Fan Heshan was also stunned. He did not expect that Du Ning would actually challenge the Liao literary world at this time.

Using Wen Jun to fight against the Liao Kingdom was unprecedented in the history of other countries. Regardless of the victory or defeat, it can be recorded in the annals of history.

Literary fighting is a discussion and exchange in the literary world, not an internal fight, so even if Cao Jing is unhappy, there is no way to accuse him.

"Du Jun, you are too arrogant. You actually want to fight against me in Liao Dynasty. Aren't you afraid that the fight will fail and your reputation will be ruined?"

Cao Jing looked at Du Ning fiercely, with a bit of ridicule in his eyes, thinking that Du Ning actually wanted to suppress the Liao literary world and was overestimating his capabilities.
