"We have all seen this. The master is different from them. However, even so, they don't believe it." Zhan Dongwen said.
"Take your time, there has to be a process of acceptance." Tang Wen waved his hand.
"Master, the newly recruited official slaves are very dissatisfied with the official education. We went to Qingniu Town to receive the troops, but they actually refused to come.
Moreover, they joined forces to resist. As a result, Hall Master Mo brought a large number of personal guards over, and they fought to the death.
Hall Master Mo wounded a dozen of them, which aroused their anger even more, and they all huddled together.
If he refuses to come over, Hall Master Mo has no choice but to worry about hurting too many people.
Therefore, we can only stay in a stalemate with them." Li Quan said.
"What's going on?" Tang Wen was stunned and asked.
"Don't we have official documents in our hands? Do they dare to resist the government? That is a death penalty!" Luo Yiwu on the side interjected and asked.
"It's useless. They said they would rather go to jail, or be exiled, or even die, than sell themselves to outsiders as slaves." Zhan Dongwen shook his head.
"Let's go and take a look." Tang Wen said, and the group of people rode straight to Qingniu Town, and an hour later they met up with Mo Dachang's men.
It was discovered that Mo Dachang and his personal guards surrounded the entire town, and the other party also organized more than a thousand people to hold weapons and stare at each other angrily.
"All the men came up, except the women and children, even the old people came up.
There was even a group of young women who built a simple wall with wood from door panels and blocked the intersection.
As soon as our people passed by, they fought tooth and nail. My subordinates arranged for people to injure a dozen of them, but none of these guys were afraid of death.
If you don’t care about your life, your subordinates are afraid of death, so what’s the use if they’re all dead by then?” Mo Dachang said.
"If we can organize all these people, there must be a leader." Tang Wen glanced at the people on the other side and asked.
"Of course there is, that man's name is Wen Jinyuan, he is only about thirty years old, and he is very knowledgeable.
I heard that if they weren't official slaves, they wouldn't be able to take the exam. Otherwise, they would have died early in the exam.
It is said that all his disciples have died." Mo Dachang said.
"Are there still people who worship official slaves as their teachers?" Luo Yiwu asked.
"Wen Jinyuan is so talented and famous far and wide, but his status as an official slave has harmed him.
He said that the crimes of their ancestors were not yet clear. However, their ancestors were all court officials.
Therefore, I would rather be a dog of an official than be sold to lowly people as slaves." Mo Dachang said.
"Our master is a first-class uncle, how come he has become a lowly commoner?" Luo Yiwu snorted.
"I told you, but they were still unwilling," Mo Dachang said.
"Haha, these are the bad habits of scholars. They have become servants of officials and are still so pedantic." Tang Wen sneered.
"I saw that they were all pretty much the same. They were quarreling and shaking their heads, as if they were reading a book." Mo Dachang said.
"How is your martial arts?" Tang Wen asked.
"I don't know, but it seems that there are some who are not weak among them. That Wen Jinyuan is not weak. I fought with him and couldn't defeat him." Mo Dachang said.
"Okay, I'll go meet him. You don't have to follow me, Dachang, just follow me, Niu Hanzi and Yiwu," 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 wary face.
"Okay, don't worry." Tang Wen waved his hand and led the three of them towards the town.
"You guys are on standby at the back, ready to attack at any time." Mo Dachang said to the guards.
As a result, all the bodyguards raised their guns and pointed them at the opponent's group.
As soon as he saw Tang Wen coming, the other party immediately went into a panic. The piercing gong rang out, and thousands of people suddenly poured into the intersection.
Changmao held the sword and even pointed the homemade bow at Tang Wen.
"Listen, don't be rude, this is our Mr. Tang." Mo Dachang shouted aggressively.
"If you come any closer, we'll fire arrows." The other party shouted.
Valley
"Hehehe, everyone, please be patient.
Look, I came here with sincerity, and only four people came. What are you afraid of?
Put down the sword and let's have a good talk." Tang Wen said with a calm smile.
"If you want to make a surprise attack, don't come any closer!" the other party shouted again.
"Guards, listen, put away your guns and weapons and stand back a mile," Tang Wen said.
"Master, you must not do this." Mo Dachang and Li Liao both shouted in fright.
"Listen to the order and retreat!" Tang Wen waved his hand, but Li Liao had no choice but to retreat with his troops.
"So, am I sincere? There are only four of us, are you still afraid?" Tang Wen said.
"Throw away all the weapons you are carrying," the other party shouted.
"Bold!" Mo Dachang was furious.
"Throw it away." Tang Wen took off the sword from his waist and threw it a hundred meters away. Mo Dachang had no choice but to throw away the firecracker, sword and so on.
At this time, an older young man came forward.
"He is Wen Jinyuan." Mo Dachang said.
Wen Jinyuan is about 1.75 meters tall and holds a fan in his hand.
He was wearing a moon-white cloth robe with flowing wind-like patterns embroidered with blue silk.
He is about thirty years old, with a square jaw, clear eyes, and slanting eyebrows.
The whole face looks very handsome, giving the impression that he is dignified and majestic, and he actually has a hint of leadership, and he is a person.
"Are you Sir Tang?"
"How dare you not kneel down when you see Sir Alex?" Mo Dachang shouted.
"Haha, Sir, your first uncle, you are so young, you must be your ancestor Yinze, right?" Wen Jinyuan glanced at Tang Wen, with a trace of disdain in his eyes.
"I heard that you are still a scholar?" Tang Wen was not annoyed. He walked to stand a foot away from him and asked with a smile.
"What's the use of having thousands of books in my chest? Just because I'm an official slave, the court won't even give us the qualifications to take the imperial examination." Wen Jinyuan said with an angry look.
"Yes! Even if our ancestors were guilty, it was only their fault.
What's more, many of the charges are groundless.
When did the court ever think of us poor official slaves? They don't regard us as human beings at all." Next to Wen Jinyuan, a middle-aged man who looked like a scribe scolded.
"This person's name is 'Hong Feng', and he has some abilities." Mo Dachang said in Tang Wen's ear.
"Only you know how pitiful you are, I thought you didn't know your situation." Tang Wen asked.
"We are official slaves, but we are also human beings and we will never let anyone bully us casually." Someone shouted.
"If you don't want to be bullied, you have to stand up." Tang Wen said. Wen Jinyuan and the others were stunned for a moment when they heard this.
"Sir Sir Alex is right, we have to be self-reliant. So Sir Sir, please take us back. We will always be official slaves and will never be sold to private individuals," Wen Jinyuan said.
"Pedantic!" Tang Wen suddenly snorted.
"Pedantic, hahaha, no matter how pedantic I am, Wen Jinyuan, it's still not my turn for you to teach me a lesson? What's more, you are just a rich man relying on the influence of your ancestors." Wen Jinyuan laughed.
"Yes, if you don't have a good father and a good mother, who are you?" Hong Feng followed.
"That means you don't have a good father or mother, so you are great?" Tang Wen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.
"At least, we are living on our own. Unlike you, what are you capable of? If your parents fall, you are nothing." Hong Feng said with contempt on his face.
"Bold!" Mo Dachang and Luo Yiwu shouted at the same time.
"Hong Feng, right? Do you think you are very capable?" Niu Hanzi asked.
"I don't have much ability, but I am better than those people who think they are right and rely on their parents." Hong Feng sneered.
"Come! I'll give you a hand." Niu Hanzi said.
