"Bang!" There was a loud noise, and a little foot wearing leather boots kicked the door open.
The little girl with an angry look on her face and her cheeks flushed with anger rushed in. She glanced around with a sharp look and selected the target - an old man wearing a Confucian shirt, a jade crown, and a fur coat, and was spitting.
"You are not allowed to slander my father!"
The girl's clear and sharp voice shocked several people in the room.
Especially Yan Shikuan, the great Confucian scholar.
"Young lady..." Xu Da whispered in shock. He was about to ask you why you came here. Before he could say anything, the little girl had already run in front of him, spreading her arms, as if in a protective posture.
.
At the same time, he turned around and shouted at him: "Hold your words!"
Xu Da: "..."
"This is......"
As soon as Yan Shikuan opened his mouth, Xu Yue immediately shouted: "You can also hold back your words!"
I was so angry that my accent came out loud.
Yan Shikuan was stunned, where did this yellow hair... little girl come from?
The old man had never seen Xu Yue dressed in such a fashionable dress. After staring at her two feminine long braids for a while, he dared to identify her gender.
"You, a great scholar of your generation, why would you accuse my father of disregarding human life and slandering bachelors without any evidence?"
"Is it possible that you have been to Bohai County in person and seen the person's oral statement?"
"Everything must be supported by evidence. You are a contemporary public intellectual. There must be hundreds of disciples, not to mention thousands, of supporters. If this word comes from your mouth, these hundreds of disciples will spread the word to ten, and then to hundreds.
Aren’t my father’s reputations going to be ruined by you?”
Xu Yue said angrily: "Don't you know that my father hates people talking about cleaning the toilet the most in his life? You still want to poke him where it hurts. You are so despicable. Are you worthy of being a great Confucian who is respected and loved by thousands of students?"
"You speak without any basis. If it had been in the past when the law was sound, we would have immediately sued you for slander!"
"It is said that seeing is believing, and hearing is true. You don't listen or see, and you just rely on your own narrow prejudice to add unwarranted charges to my father. There is no such reason!"
Xu Yue's barrage of arguments and questions made everyone in the room blurry.
Yan Shikuan wanted to open his mouth to refute several times, but was surprised to find that he could not refute. His face turned pale with anger, and he froze in place, pointing his finger at the eight-year-old child in front of him, shaking like chaff.
After a long while, Xu Yue's small mouth finished speaking, and then she choked out a sentence from her throat:
"You kid, you have such a sharp mouth!"
Xu Yue hummed: "Compared with you, Yue feels inferior."
"Okay, okay, okay, your Xu family is really good!" Yan Shikuan nodded repeatedly, and he must have lost his mind with anger, so he behaved so irrationally and said sarcastic words.
After all, I have been respected by others all my life, and when I am old, I am still criticized by a child and have nothing to say. I am so angry that I keep taking deep breaths.
If Yan Gu hadn't brought the tea in a hurry, Yan Shikuan would have almost lost his temper.
Xu Da silently looked at the villain in front of him to defend himself, his eyes filled with disbelief and deep emotion.
But seeing that Yan Shikuan was about to recover after drinking tea, he pulled Xu Yue behind him and said apologetically:
"She is just an ignorant child. She doesn't know what Mr. Yan means. She only heard her father being slandered and insulted, and she felt unfair, so she spoke arrogantly. Mr. Yan, please don't be as knowledgeable as her."
Children, don’t be sensible, don’t be as knowledgeable as her. Xu Yue had heard these words too many times while surfing the Internet in her previous life, but this was the first time they were used to herself.
The feeling, how should I put it, is very subtle and a bit refreshing.
Dad was kidnapped by morality as soon as he came. She saw how Yan Daru had the nerve to care about a "child" like hers.
In fact, it feels really good to speak out what is in my heart.
But after feeling refreshed and her brain calmed down, Xu Yue felt a little weak.
You know, this man is a real scholar. If he becomes unreasonable, they really can't do anything to him.
Yan Shikuan finally regained his composure, but Xu Da forcibly imposed moral shackles on him and almost fainted again.
Fortunately, this time, the yellow-haired little girl didn't add insult to injury by scolding him.
Yan Shikuan calmed down for a while and then regained his energy.
Yan Gu was afraid that things would get serious, so he stepped forward to smooth things over with a cautious look on his face, preparing to coax the clan uncle back to rest first to avoid getting sick from his anger.
Unexpectedly, the old man was also a straight-tempered man, and he would not say anything quickly. He immediately waved his hand to stop Yan Gu, looked at Xu Yue who was standing behind Xu Da, and asked with narrowed eyes:
"You just said that I slandered your father. What evidence do you have to prove that what I said is not true?"
This is the attitude of trying to break up with her, a child.
Xu Da turned around and glared at his daughter helplessly, "It's over, I've met a gangster."
Xu Yue snorted and tilted her head, saying that she was not afraid either. Dad, please look at it. My daughter will not allow anyone to add unfounded charges to you.
Xu Da was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
That look seemed to say, go ahead and make trouble, we, father and daughter, will go out and teach this narrow-minded old man how to behave together today.
With her father's full support, Xu Yue felt relieved, stood up in front of her, and replied:
"First of all, my father did not kill any innocent civilians."
"When Bohai County attacked the city, the great scholar came to the city gate with his disciples to block the city gate and prevent the army from entering the city. This was to put himself in the position of a soldier defending the city."
"Since they have chosen to be soldiers instead of scholars and scholars, they should know what will happen to them if the city is destroyed."
"Two armies are at war, and soldiers attack each other. This has been the case since ancient times. Since they became soldiers and chose to give up their original identity as Confucian scholars, how can they use their original identities to accuse the general of killing innocent people because they were defeated and the city was destroyed?"
"After entering the city, my father and the others did not kill any civilians. The only people who died under their swords were soldiers who were enemies."
Xu Yue took a deep breath, poured herself a cup of tea, and after drinking it, she asked word by word:
"So, where does the idea of killing civilians come from?"
After asking, those black eyes looked directly into Yan Shikuan's astonished eyes, and suddenly regained the playfulness of the little girl, and added:
"I haven't mentioned the grand funeral that my father held for the great scholar. At the funeral, he also tried hard to persuade the students who wanted to become soldiers to be calmer and more sensible. This saved many people from death.
?”
Yan Shikuan retorted eagerly: "But your father and the others still killed many people, and their hands were stained with the blood of countless people!"
"Sir, I'm afraid you've never been on the battlefield, right?" The girl tilted her head and looked at him and asked firmly.
Yan Shikuan nodded. It is true that he has never been on the battlefield, but so what?
What does it have to do with Xu Qingyang and Gongsun Zan, the two butchers with blood on their hands?
Xu Yue sighed softly, as if she saw with her own eyes the character of an idol she admired collapsed in front of her.
She asked the stubborn old man in front of her, "Suppose, sir, you are a general, and your army is fleeing from a city. The city is full of people who are completely strangers to you. But the enemy is about to attack, and you must defend the city."
.”
"However, the enemy's army is strong and our army is weak."
"At this time, the other party proposes to trade the head of your most loyal lieutenant in exchange for the safety of tens of thousands of people behind you. How do you choose?"
"Should I send the head of my loyal comrade and chill the hearts of the soldiers, or should I sacrifice the tens of thousands of people behind me and be criticized by thousands of people?"
Yan Shikuan fell into deep thought, and the whole study became quiet. Even Yan Gu and Gongsun An were thinking seriously about what they would choose if they were generals.
