Chapter 256: Pedantic (1)

“We can see that. Old master is different from them. However, even so, they don’t believe me. ” Zhan dongwen said. “Let’s take it slow. There’s a process of acceptance.” Tang Wen waved his hand. “Master, the new batch of official servants are not convinced. We went to Green Bull town to pick up our men, but they refused to come. Moreover, they had joined forces to resist. In the end, clan master mo brought a large number of personal guards over, and they swore to fight to the death. Clan leader mo had injured more than ten of them. In the end, it had incited their anger and they all huddled together. If they refused to come over, clan master mo had no choice. He was afraid that too many people would be injured. So, we can only fight them in a stalemate. ” Li Quan said. “What’s going on?” Tang Wen was stunned and asked. “Don’t we have official documents in our hands? Did they dare to go against the government? That’s a capital crime!” Luo Yiwu, who was at the side, interrupted and asked. “It’s useless. They said they’d rather go to jail, be exiled, or even die than sell their bodies to an outsider as a slave.” Zhan dongwen said, shaking his head. “Go! Let’s go take a look. ” Tang Wen said. The group of people rode straight to Green Bull town and met up with mo Dachang’s men two hours later. He discovered that mo Dachang had brought his personal guards to surround the entire town. The other party had also organized more than a thousand people to hold weapons and glare at him. “All the men have come up. Other than the women and children, even the elderly have come up. There was even a group of young women. They used wooden planks to build a simple wall to block the intersection. Once our people go over, they will risk their lives. This subordinate arranged for people to injure more than ten of them, but these guys were not afraid of death. This subordinate is afraid of death. At that time, what’s the use of all of us dying?” Mo Dachang said. “To be able to gather all these people, there must be a leader.” Tang Wen glanced at the other party and asked. “Of course there is. That person is called Wen Jinyuan. He is only about 30 years old and is very knowledgeable. I heard that if it wasn’t for their status as officials and servants, they wouldn’t be able to attend the examination. Otherwise, he would have been dead long ago. It’s said that his disciples are all in the middle of the earth. ” Mo Dachang said. “There are still people who want to take officials and slaves as their Masters?” Luo Yiwu asked. “Wen Jinyuan is too talented and is well known. It’s just that his status as an official’s servant has harmed him. He said that the sins of their ancestors were not yet clear. However, their ancestors were all officials of the court. Therefore, they would rather be the dogs of the officials than be sold to the lowly people as slaves. ” Mo Dachang said. “Our master is a first rank uncle, how did he become a lowly commoner?” Luo Yiwu snorted. “I told them, but they still aren’t willing.” Mo Dachang said. “Hehe, this is a bad habit of scholars. You have already become a servant of an official family and yet you are still so stubborn. ” Tang Wen sneered. “I think they’re all the same. When they quarrel, they shake their heads as if they’re reading.” Mo Dachang said. “How’s your martial arts?” Tang Wen asked. “I’m not sure, but it seems like there are some strong people among them. That Wen Jinyuan is not weak. I exchanged a blow with him, but I couldn’t take him down. ” Mo Chang said. “Alright, I’ll go meet him. You guys don’t have to follow me. Dachang, you, Hanzi Niu, and Yiwu can just follow me. ” Tang Wen said. “That’s too dangerous. It’s better to bring more people.” Mo Dachang shook his head. “Don’t worry. My master is very powerful. They are nothing. ” Niu Hanzi said with a cheeky face. “Alright, don’t worry,” Tang Wen waved his hand and took the three of them to the town. “All of you, stand by at the back and be ready to attack at any time.” Mo Dachang said to the personal guards. As a result, all the guards raised their muskets and aimed them at the other party. As soon as they saw Tang Wen coming over, the other party immediately exploded like a pot. The ear – piercing sound of gongs rang out, and suddenly, thousands of people swarmed up at the intersection. They held swords, Spears, and even self – made bows and arrows and aimed them at Tang Wen. “Listen up, don’t be rude. This is our Master Tang.” Mo Dachang shouted in an aggressive manner. “If you come any closer, we’ll shoot.” The other party shouted. “Hehehe, everyone, please calm down. You see, I’m here with sincerity. There are only four of you, what are you afraid of? Put down your weapons and let’s have a good talk. ” Tang Wen said with a calm smile. “If you want to launch a surprise attack, don’t come any closer!” The other party shouted again. “Guards, listen up. Put away your blazing meteor weapons and retreat one li.” Tang Wen said. “Master, you must not.” Mo Dachang and Li Liao were so frightened that they shouted. “Hear my order, retreat!” Tang Wen waved his hand, and Li Liao had no choice but to take his men and step back. “What do you think? am I being sincere? There are only four of us, are you still afraid?” Tang Wen said. “Throw away all your weapons.” The other party shouted. “How audacious!” Mo Chang was furious. “Just throw it.” Tang Wen untied the sword from his waist and threw it a hundred meters away. Mo Dachang had no choice but to throw away his fire Swan sword and other weapons. At this moment, an old and mature young man walked up. “He is Wen Jinyuan.” Mo Dachang said. Wen Jinyuan was about 1.75 meters tall, and he was holding a fan in his hand. He was wearing a moon – White cloth robe, and the clothes were embroidered with a flowing wind pattern using black silk. He was about 30 years old, his jaw was square, his eyes were bright, and his eyebrows were sharp. His entire face looked very handsome, giving people a feeling of arrogance. He actually had a trace of leadership. He was a character. “You are Lord Tang?” “How dare you not kneel after seeing Lord Jue?” Mo Dachang roared. “Hehe, Lord Jue, you’re a first – ranked Earl. You’re so young. You must be the shadow of your ancestors, right?” Wen Jinyuan glanced at Tang Wen with a hint of disdain in his eyes. “I heard you’re a scholar?” Tang Wen wasn’t annoyed. He walked to a distance of three meters from him and asked with a smile. “What’s the use of having ten thousand books on your chest? Just because I’m an official slave, the Imperial court doesn’t even give us the qualifications to take the imperial examination. ” Wen Jinyuan said angrily. “Right! Even if the ancestors were guilty, that was only the sins of the ancestors. Not to mention, many of these crimes were groundless. When has the Imperial court ever thought of us pitiful officials and slaves? they don’t even treat us as humans. ” A scholarly looking middle – aged man beside Wen Jinyuan chided. “This person is called ‘Hong Feng’, and he has some ability.” Mo Dachang whispered into Tang Wen’s ear. “Only now do you know how pitiful you are. I thought you didn’t know your situation.” Tang Wen asked. “We may be officials and slaves, but we are also humans. We will never let anyone bully us.” Someone shouted. “If you don’t want to be bullied, you have to stand up.” Tang Wen said. When Wen Jinyuan and the rest heard this, they were stunned. “Lord Jue is right, we have to be independent and strong. So, Lord Jue, please go back. We will always be official slaves and will never be sold to private people. ” Wen Jinyuan said. “Pedantic!” Tang Wen suddenly snorted. “Pedantic, hahaha, no matter how pedantic I, Wen Jinyuan, am, it’s not up to a kid like you to lecture me? Moreover, you’re just a rich young master who’s relying on the ancestors. ” Wen Jinyuan laughed. “That’s right. If you don’t have a good father and mother, what are you?” Hong Feng said. “Does that mean that you’re very impressive because you don’t have a good father or mother?” Tang Wen squinted his eyes and asked. “At least, we live on our own. Unlike you, what ability do you have? If father and mother fall, you’ll be nothing. ” Hong Feng said with disdain. “How audacious!” Mo Dachang and Luo Yiwu shouted at the same time. “You’re Hong Feng, right? Do you think you’re very capable?” Niu Hanzi asked. “I don’t have much ability, but I’m still better than those self – righteous people who rely on their parents.” Hong Feng sneered. “Come! I’ll give you a one – hand handicap. ” Niu Hanzi said.
