I have been slaying demons in the Demon Slayer Division for thirty years

Wang Boan was in severe pain at first, then confused, and then furious.

A dignified minister of the fourth rank of the Ministry of Etiquette was beaten up in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. It was the most outrageous thing in the world!

Can carry the cauldron!

Wang Bo'an used Confucian and Taoist magic to bless himself, but he felt a cramp in his abdomen. The interruption of the magic also caused a backlash.

The breath all over his body was chaotic, and he couldn't raise any strength.

Du Si made a sneak attack and punched him, anticipating that Wang Bo'an would counterattack later, and was already prepared to be beaten.

As a result, Wang Boan's body softened and he fell to the ground!

"Touch porcelain?"

Du Si's head was filled with excitement, and evil arose from his courage. He rode on Wang Bo'an and opened his bow from left to right.

Crack, pop, pop, pop, pop...

After a bastard punch, Wang Boan was furious and all his strength was exhausted.

puff! puff! puff!

An unspeakable smell permeated the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and all the scholars covered their mouths and noses.

The prince couldn't help but vomit, his calm expression could no longer be tense, and he said angrily: "Sweep the floor politely!"

The other invigilators reacted immediately and used their magic skills to restrain Du Si, who wanted to beat others, and to cleanse the dirty smell in the palace.

After a lot of trouble, the Hall of Supreme Harmony finally smelled normal.

Wang Bo'an's face was red. How could he not react now? He had been tricked by Sanwu Lao Bangzi. Not only was the elixir useless, it would also weaken the restraint method.

"Your Highness, this madman ignored the majesty of the royal family and disrupted the palace examination. He should be punished immediately!"

According to the laws of Daqian, ten times would be enough for Du Si to die for whatever he did.

"Your Highness, Shi Lang farting in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is really ignoring your majesty."

Du Si argued: "This time the Tian family is recruiting scholars, as a disciple of the Emperor, Wang Bo'an dares to be disrespectful to you, the Crown Prince, how can he not retaliate with fists and kicks!"

When the prince heard the word "Emperor", he immediately felt good about him, especially for someone who risked his life and death to maintain his majesty. He was really a rare loyal minister.

Wang Bo'an was once promoted by the prince and then joined the service of Emperor Jingtai. The prince had long been disgusted by these two ministers.

"If you say that, it's excusable. I'll punish you by copying three volumes of scripture to calm your mind."

When Wang Bo'an heard this, he immediately became furious. He was made a fool of himself. How could this madman escape the law?

He said: "Your Highness, if you do this, many madmen may follow suit in the future. We must be severely punished to serve as a warning to others!"

The prince raised his eyebrows. He was sensitive and resented anyone refuting him.

At this time.

Another voice rang out from the hall: "The person who beat the people in the hall is a lunatic. He wantonly excretes filth and disrupts the examination room. This is worse than a lunatic!"

"My thoughts and ideas will be disrupted, and my overall cultural context will be ruined."

"It's understandable to beat someone to protect His Majesty's majesty!"

"If the punishment is severe, it must be treated equally!"

Voices sounded one after another, and the scholars in the palace spoke out to defend Du Si.

When the scientific examination has reached this stage, I will not be too afraid of the identity of the Minister of Rites.

Wang Bo'an's face turned pale when he heard this. He squinted his eyes and scanned the Jinshi who spoke out, remembering them one by one.

The prince said loudly: "What do you think, Minister Wang?"

"Your Highness, I...can forgive him."

Wang Bo'an gritted his teeth and said: "There have been many things going on in the court recently. In order to repay His Majesty's grace, I have been working hard day and night, and I have been feeling a lot of discomfort recently.

But in order to live up to His Majesty's trust, I forced myself to come to invigilate the palace examination, and I never thought of being humiliated like this..."

His Majesty!

Father...

The prince's expression changed slightly. Wang Bo'an was currently one of Emperor Jingtai's most valued ministers, so it would be inappropriate to fall out with him for a Jinshi.

"Well, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped."

The prince looked a little aggrieved and said: "I will go to Longchuan as punishment and take care of the royal tea garden."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Du Si bowed and saluted. He thought it was a surprise to be able to save his life in a serious crime situation.

All the Jinshi looked happy, thinking that they had maintained the strict laws of the court with their own efforts.

The other old officials in the palace looked at the prince with expressions ranging from disappointment, helplessness and even contempt.

Today is an opportunity for all the Jinshi to work together. Daudao can completely forgive Du Si and gain the approval of all the Jinshi.

Cruelty can send Wang Bo'an and Du Si to jail together. There is a high probability that Wang Bo'an will be acquitted in the end, but he will also make his voice heard in the court.

He was timid and ignored the wishes of all the Jinshi. He sent Du Si to die to win over Wang Bo'an and indirectly showed his favor to His Majesty.

The prince chose the worst option. He was relegated to Longchuan and failed to win over the scholars. Du Si was exempted from the death penalty, which made Wang Bo'an feel resentful, and he gained all his resentment in vain.

No wonder there are rumors that the prince of the prison country is indecisive and not like a human king...

…

Zhuangyuan Hall.

Zhou Yi put down several volumes of Taoist scriptures and settled the account with shopkeeper He.

The torturer said that the profit was 500 taels. As piracy became more and more popular, sales profits continued to be discounted.

Sales of Taoist scripture copybooks are booming. The price of a copy of Taoist scriptures exceeds thirty taels, and demand still exceeds supply.

Zhouyi's calligraphy has become more and more sophisticated, even faintly breaking away from the old "Zhang" style, and has unique changes.

Words are like people, and people are like words.

Each monk has a different understanding of the Tao, which is naturally reflected in the fonts. Ordinary people may copy it for a long time and have a chance of understanding some ways of cultivation.

After settling the account, shopkeeper He showed Zhou Yi the harvest of this year's champion hall. Two beautifully framed inscriptions were hung on the wall of the champion.

All the calligraphy treasures on the No. 1 Scholar wall were left by previous No. 1 Scholars and are extremely valuable.

"Mr. Zhou, this is this year's new number one calligraphy treasure. What do you think?"

Zhou Yi raised his eyes and saw that the first words read: The great road of a gentleman should not be avoided by life and death. In the 52nd year of Jingtai's reign, Meng Huaiyuan had feelings for farewell to his colleague Ke Shouren.

"Shouren?"

Zhou Yi's heart moved and he looked at the other word next to it.

——The mastery of work comes from hard work and waste from play, and the accomplishment comes from thinking and destroys from following.

this……

Zhou Yi said quietly: "Why are there two books left this year?"

"This second calligraphy was written by Du Shouren, a new scholar in the Jin Dynasty. The master's character is equivalent to the letter left by the number one scholar."

Shopkeeper He described it vividly: "This Mr. Du is really fearless and beat up the Minister of Rites in the Hall of Supreme Harmony..."

Zhou Yi's face gradually became more wonderful. No wonder Du Si looked so generous and sacrificed, but he was so courageous.

"...I heard that Minister Wang was beaten so badly that he was so miserable. It was so miserable."

Shopkeeper He sighed: "It's a pity Mr. Du, he failed in the imperial examination, ranked last, and was demoted to Longchuan to grow tea."

"Does Shopkeeper He know when he will leave Beijing?"

"I heard that today, many Jinshi from the same discipline are going to say goodbye..."

Shopkeeper He looked back and saw that there was no trace of Zhou Yi.

…

Southern suburb of Luojing.

Ten Mile Pavilion.

The north wind is strong and all the grass withers.

Du Si boarded the carriage and said goodbye to many of his colleagues.

"After seeing you for thousands of miles, we must say goodbye eventually. Shouren will never forget the life-saving grace of all the kings! No need to travel far, see you in the future!"

After saying that, he shook the reins and the carriage drove south along the official road.

All the Jinshi, headed by Meng Huaiyuan, the No. 1 scholar, watched the carriage disappear at Shili Pavilion until it disappeared.

There are those who are bold and unrestrained and can't help but play their swords and compose songs, and their heroic spirit flows through the sky. There are also those who are good at painting, who paint with a brush and leave this scene on the rice paper forever.

It is a time when the spring breeze is triumphant and there is still youthful spirit. No matter how the officialdom changes in the future, whether he is ignored by everyone or has a dark heart, he will never forget to express his feelings directly in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and refute the minister of the dynasty together.

When Zhou Yi saw this scene in the air, he actually aroused a trace of enthusiasm.

It turned into an escaping light and landed in front of Dusi's carriage, holding the bay-red horse and waiting.

A moment later, when Du Si saw Zhou Yi, he suddenly looked happy and ashamed: "Shouren met Mr. Wang and wanted to teach Wang Bo'an a good lesson, but he didn't let him have any injuries, and he was banished. I'm sorry sir..."

"You are very good!"

Zhou Yi handed him the maroon horse's reins: "This horse can travel thousands of miles in a day, through mountains, forests and swamps, as well as walking on flat ground. I will send you to Longchuan as soon as possible."

The bay-red horse has been washed and marrowed by mana for a long time, and its physical strength and speed are not weaker than those of the eighth- and ninth-grade monsters.

Du Si bowed and said, "Thank you sir."

Zhou Yi took out another roll of rice paper and said, "You and I became friends through words, and I will give you another piece of calligraphy today!"

Du Si opened it happily. The first glance was attracted by the font, and the second glance was full of horror.

Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people...

Create peace for all eternity...
