Chapter 285 I protest!
Two days later.
Du Ning came to the Great Confucian Palace again to participate in the congress and vote.
As usual, before the vote begins, everyone should start to discuss the content of the vote.
The great scholars who opposed the abolition of the privileges of aristocratic families had no objection, so they did not need to express too much opinions, nor did they bother expressing those opinions.
They are already sure to win.
Those who have opinions were Du Ning, who supported the abolition of the privileges of the aristocratic family, and a few great scholars, including Kong De, who represented the Kong family.
"Now is the discussion, so let me first talk about our Kong family's views."
Kong De said to everyone: "Actually, you all know that because of the privileges of aristocratic families, the scholars of my Kong family made serious mistakes in the Three Realms Mountains. Yan Shenggong is still worried. Therefore, he decided to use the proposal of abolishing the privileges of aristocratic families to rectify the Kong family, and at the same time apologize to scholars all over the world. Since he decided to abolish the privileges of aristocratic families, our Kong family should lead by example and set a good example for all aristocratic families."
"Today's meeting is crucial. Should we agree to abolish the privileges of aristocratic families or continue to retain them? Should we let the race take a big step or continue to maintain the status quo?"
"I hope that all the great scholars can consider more human race and cast this crucial vote."
"That's what our Kong family means, Yun Qijun, do you have any additional opinions?"
Kong De then threw the topic to Du Ning.
The great scholars of various countries looked at Du Ning, and their respectful eyes also turned into indifference and ridicule.
They can respect Comte for the sake of the Most Holy Family.
But they all seemed extremely disdainful of Du Ning, the rising star.
Du Ning bowed to Kong De and said, "My great scholars and gentlemen, although in the last vote, you denied the suggestion of abolishing the privileges of the Holy Family with absolute votes, I still stick to my own point of view."
"The pedantic family privileges must be abolished, which is an important key to the human race's progress. Otherwise, more cases will occur like Kong Chengting and Kong Chengrui. Only by abolishing the privileges of the Holy Family can the Holy Academy have more fair law enforcement."
"If the privileges of the Holy Family are used to safeguard the status of the Holy Family, then in the near future, there will be another incident that will harm the human race."
When Du Ning said this, many great scholars looked dark. Although they were reluctant to admit it, this was indeed a fact that had happened and no one could deny it.
But more great scholars laughed disdainfully, looking at Du Ning as if looking at an extremely stupid person.
In their eyes, Du Ning is still the jumping clown. Standing in this great scholar's palace, he barely gains a sense of humble existence by making some ridiculous remarks.
"Then I would like to ask Mr. Yun Qi, if the privileges of the Holy Family are abolished, how can the Holy Family maintain their status?" A great scholar sneered.
"The Holy Family does not need to maintain its status." Du Ning said.
"What are you saying! You are arrogant! How dare you say such a ruthless thing? Where are the Holy Family families?" the other party shouted angrily.
Many great scholars' eyes were even colder, and some sneered and full of hostility.
Du Ning shouted: "The status of the Holy Family depends on the attitude of the Holy Family towards the human race. If a person can treat the human race in a way that public is greater than private, then no matter whether he was born in the Holy Family, even if he is just an ordinary person in the city, he can still receive the respect he deserves."
"Only those scholars who are more selfish than public and often do evil will choose family interests in the face of family interests and human justice, but are worried that their status will be shaken, so they will use privileges to intimidate others to protect their status and interests. Then no matter how noble he is from, he will be criticized and scolded by countless people."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Heshan immediately spoke: "Well said! Mr. Yun Qi's words hit the nail on the head. As long as the Holy Family can contribute to the human race, they will naturally have status. The status maintained by using privileges cannot last long, and it may even be disgusted by everyone because of the oppression of privilege on others."
Many great scholars' expressions changed, some thoughtful, some gritted their teeth because of conflicts, and some still sneered disdainfully, without adding any food, rice, oil and salt.
Du Ning continued: "Everyone has the right to be selfish, but if we hope that the human race can prosper, we must give up our selfishness and seek great justice. But I don't know if the great scholars present are willing to make this contribution to the human race?"
After saying that, he raised his head high and glanced at the many great scholars present.
Some of the great scholars took a deep breath and couldn't help avoiding his eyes.
The scene was quiet.
Even the great Confucian Ke Changzhi fell into deep thoughts.
He firmly denies the abolition of the privileges of the Holy Family, but Duning's words are indeed very reasonable, and no contradiction can be found from any perspective.
Some great scholars sighed silently, the other ones hesitated, and some great scholars looked ugly.
"Mr. Yun Qi has finished speaking. If there is no other opinion, we will just talk about it and go directly to the voting stage." Kong De spoke.
Many great scholars whispered to each other and whispered a few words, and soon became quiet.
"Since everyone has no objection, we will start the second round of voting. Those who favor abolish the privileges of the aristocratic family vote for voting, those who oppose vote for voting, and those who remain neutral vote for neutral vote for voting." Comte said.
Everyone voted immediately and wrote on the bamboo plaque.
Then, the light curtain appears, showing the voting results.
Du Ning voted directly for the vote, then looked at other great scholars and found that except for most great scholars who quickly wrote the text, there was another great scholar who still did not start writing.
There are also some great scholars who wrote half of the text and used their talents to eliminate and rewritten it, and repeated it over and over again.
Above the light curtain, the number of votes in favor exceeded 200, which is much more than when the vote was voted two days ago.
It can be seen that it is precisely because of the buffering of these two days and Du Ning's speech that some great scholars have changed their views.
But the number of votes against it has continued to increase, reaching 400.
The number of votes that remained neutral quickly reached more than 100.
Some great scholars also wanted to abolish the privileges of the saints family, but did not want to offend the saints family, so they could only make choices by maintaining neutrality.
The big scholar who firmly opposed the face slightly darkened, and some even looked angry.
The great scholar who insisted on opposing the past two days suddenly turned against him today, and he was really easy to be convinced by sweet words.
However, even if some great scholars change their minds, they still cannot shake the absolute advantage of the number of votes against them.
Seeing this, Ke Changzhi's face showed a victory-like smile.
In the end, the voting result of this time was announced with more than 500 votes against, more than 300 votes in favor, and more than 100 votes to remain neutral. The victory of many opponents was announced.
Ke Changzhi smiled so hard that he couldn't stop, and looked at Du Ning with great relief.
"As it really failed?"
Fan Heshan's eyes were dim and he felt unwilling to accept it, but he could only accept it.
But Fu Shuyun looked hesitant and didn't know what he was thinking about.
Kong De's face looked a little bad, and he could only use a serious expression to cover it up as much as possible.
"The voting has ended, and the voting results have come out. Please confirm this vote again. Taking advantage of the fact that this result has not been officially submitted to the saints, you still have the opportunity to change your mind." Kong De spoke.
Ke Changzhi immediately said impatiently: "Since the result has come out, sirs, please do not waste time, determine the second voting results immediately and submit them to the judgment of the Saints!"
Many great scholars immediately reconfirmed the voting results.
But this time, many votes remain neutral suddenly decreased, and the number of votes that followed increased.
The number of votes that were originally opposed was also reduced a little, and finally added to the number of votes that remained neutral.
Only the votes for favor continue to increase, but they are still not enough to shake the absolute advantage of the votes against.
After the final determination, the number of votes against them was still large.
"It seems that the situation is very clear, and we can hand it over to the saints for the final verdict." Ke Changzhi said with a smile.
Kong De sighed helplessly and said, "Since this is the case, I will immediately ask the will of all the saints to vote."
"Let's wait!"
Du Ning suddenly stood up and said firmly and resolutely: "I, protest!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the great scholars of all countries changed their faces.
"presumptuous!"
Ke Changzhi scolded: "The voting results have been released and you cannot tolerate protests, and your protest alone is invalid!"
Du Ning ignored it, but bowed to Kong De and said, "I dare to ask Mr. Kong, I remember that in the Holy Academy, Wen Jun himself had a special power to attend major conferences, which was not owned by ordinary great scholars. I wonder if what I said below is correct?"
Ke Changzhi immediately said: "No, Du Ning has not been officially granted the title, and is not the true Wenjun, so he cannot use his privileges. Moreover, the abolition of the privileges of the Holy Family was proposed by him. If he uses the privileges, wouldn't he be slap himself in the face?"
After saying that, he cast a very disgusting look at Du Ning.
"You are really disgusting!" Ke Changzhi cursed.
Many great scholars immediately pointed and laughed.
Du Ning said to Kong De without changing his expression: "Mr. Kong asked me to answer my question positively."
Kong De pondered on the spot, then slapped the arbor and said to everyone: "Although Du Ning has not been officially enthroned by the throne ceremony, the Holy Academy has given Du Ning the title, which means that he recognizes his identity and status, and that is the real Wenjun. The throne ceremony is just a celebration ceremony. Furthermore, Du Ning attended the meeting as Wenjun, so he can naturally use Wenjun's privileges..."
The faces of many great scholars changed instantly, and an unknown premonition surged into their hearts.
