The scholars of the Zhao family rolled up their sleeves one by one and showed off their talents, preparing to take down Du Ning in one fell swoop.
"Stop! You are so outrageous!"
"Who dares to touch my Hanyi Club students!"
A series of loud shouts suddenly sounded, and the scholars in the Zhao family were startled because they felt guilty.
Du Ning followed the sound and saw Li Changsheng coming quickly with a large group of people, and soon separated the Zhao family scholars.
There are many scholars in the Zhao family, but there are even more scholars in Hanyi Club.
Zhao Donghai's face became extremely ugly.
Some people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master Du, are you okay?" Li Changsheng came over and asked.
"Dumou is fine."
Du Ning asked: "How did you come?"
"We already know what happened today in the liberal arts college."
Li Changsheng said: "I heard from my friends in Hanyi Society that a large group of people from the Zhao family had been dispatched, so I thought that Zhao Dongcheng's Wen Palace was open, and they must have come to you to ask for punishment, so I immediately summoned the students of Hanyi Society to come to the front.
Come support you."
"Thank you, Brother Li, thank you all."
Du Ning felt grateful and bowed to everyone.
"Young master Du, you are welcome. You are a student of my Hanyi club. As the leader of the club, how can I just watch you being bullied? What's more, you are not wrong in this matter." Li Changsheng Yi Lingran.

"Hmph! What a brother Li, are you trying to go against my Zhao family?" Zhao Donghai said in a deep voice.
"Do you, the Zhao family, want to go against my Hanyi Club?" Li Changsheng asked.
"Presumptuous!"
"Crazy life!"
The Zhao family scholar roared.
"Zhao Donghai, your Zhao family is just a distinguished family, why are you so arrogant!"
Li Changsheng stood in front of Du Ning and said loudly: "Do you think that Du Ning has no fame, so you think he is easy to bully? Let me tell you! Mr. Du is a student of my Hanyi Club. Bullying him is bullying Hanyi Club and bullying me.
In front of us, try touching him. Believe it or not, I will write a memorial asking the court to revoke the reputation of your family!"
Zhao Donghai didn't dare to move. Li Changsheng had a great reputation, and even the prefect did not dare to offend him easily. He was someone who could go directly to the court with a memorial.
"Brother Li has misunderstood. A gentleman talks but never takes action. How could we do that kind of thing?"
Zhao Donghai winked at the others, and the talents around him were quickly restrained.
"My brother Dongcheng just criticized Mr. Du in the "Nanping Wenbao", but Mr. Du used "Bamboo and Stone" to tear Dongcheng Wen Palace apart. We are here today just to seek justice." Zhao Donghai shouted.
Tao.
"Since you want justice, why don't you go to court as a judge?" Li Changsheng asked.
"This..."
Zhao Donghai thought for a while and replied: "It is better to reconcile enemies than to make enemies. As long as Mr. Du kowtows to my brother and apologizes, the matter will be over. Why bother the Lord?"
"Fart!"
Li Changsheng said angrily: "A scoundrel like Zhao Dongcheng is simply a disgrace to the literati. Let alone the collapse of the literati palace, even if he is killed, it is not a pity to die. You still want Mr. Du to kowtow to apologize? Do you think?
Who is Zhao Dongcheng? Who do you think your Zhao family is!"
"Li Changsheng, you are so presumptuous!"
Zhao Donghai was so angry that he couldn't stand Li Changsheng humiliating their distinguished family.
"Shut up!"
Li Changsheng stared at Zhao Donghai, with anger bursting in his eyes: "Aren't you going to take action against Mr. Du? Zhao Donghai, let's use what happened between Mr. Du and Zhao Dongcheng in the Academy of Literature to see who has the strongest literary courage.
Who dares to fight if he returns home with bleeding from all his orifices?"
An invisible momentum soared into the sky, making Li Changsheng's clothes snap and making Zhao Donghai and others feel a chill in their faces.
Zhao Donghai's eyes showed fear, and he was also furious.
In normal times, who is Li Changsheng, and he dares to yell at himself?
But in today's matter, Zhao Dongcheng was indeed wrong. No matter how strong Zhao Donghai's literary courage was, he would never be able to defeat Li Changsheng, who stood up for Du Ning.
"Hmph! Even if I borrow ten of your courage, you don't dare to challenge my literary courage!"
Li Changsheng had a sneer on his face, "Master Du used "Bamboo and Stone" to tear apart Zhao Dongcheng Wen Palace, so Li will also write a poem for you today. All you children of the Zhao family should listen to me!"
"A distinguished family has no shame. They only talk about being heroic. They follow the trend of others and seek to be noble. They bully the weak and fear the strong. What a coward!"
"This poem is called "Li Changsheng's Poems Presented to Zhao Donghai"!"
After Li Changsheng finished speaking, an invisible force surged in all directions.
The power of literary courage!
This poem simply scolded the scholars of the Zhao family completely, turning it into an invisible knife, ruthlessly piercing the heart of every scholar of the Zhao family.
"You...you...how dare you..."
Zhao Donghai's eyes were blood red and he could not say a word while pointing at Li Changsheng.
"Poof!"
A subtle sound came from Zhao Donghai's Wen Palace. It sounded like sand falling to the ground.
Literary courage is covered in dust!
Zhao Donghai was furious.
It is not terrible for literary works to be covered with dust. It only requires readers to reflect on their own mistakes and allow their talents to wash their literary works again, and then the dust will disappear on its own.
However, Zhao Donghai could not accept it no matter what, because he was also an eighth-rank scholar and was scolded by Li Changsheng's poems.
This is a huge humiliation!
The other scholars of the Zhao family were even more frightened. The scholar of the eighth grade was shaken, while the boy of the ninth grade had a splitting headache.
The Zhao family had done something wrong in this matter in the first place, and now they were insulted by Li Changsheng's poems and attacked with literary courage. How could they stand it?
What makes them even more angry is that once this poem spreads, the reputation of the Zhao family will be completely ruined.
The consequences of offending a juren are more severe than offending a child.
Du Ning took a deep breath, feeling in awe of Ji Changsheng.
As long as a person's literary courage is strong, he can attack with the power of his literary courage with the help of poems and articles, and he can hurt people even if he speaks in verses.
It’s really scary!
Du Ning encouraged himself in his heart that he must obtain a meritorious title in the future. Once he has a meritorious title, he will have the right to report to the imperial court and the Academy of Arts.
If a scholar without fame reports a powerful person to the court, he will be considered to be guilty of the following crimes.
This is the biggest difference between having fame and not having fame.
The mere power to submit a memorial to the court was enough to intimidate Xiao Xiao.
Everyone in the Hanyi Club cast mocking glances at the Zhao family scholars. They didn't say anything, but it made them feel more embarrassed and angry than pointing at each other's noses and scolding them.
The scholars of the Zhao family gritted their teeth one by one, and they didn't have the same momentum as before to criticize Du Ning.
There are also people who secretly regret that they should not have come here to cause trouble.
"Zhao Donghai, if you are not convinced, you can go to the Yamen to challenge me at any time, or file a lawsuit with the Academy of Arts to have my title revoked. I, Li Changsheng, will stay with you until the end."
"If you don't dare, take your people back now. If you dare to take a step towards Mr. Du's house again in the future, I will definitely not scold you for being so polite with a poem!"
Zhao Donghai was frightened, which showed that Li Changsheng would most likely report to the court as a scholar in order to keep Du Ning.
Although it is a small matter, once it becomes a big deal, it will become a big deal.
As a powerful person, he can use his connections to reduce big things and make them trivial.
But students from poor families can magnify small things infinitely to attract more people's attention, so as to achieve the effect of calling out the injustice.
It is only natural that Li Changsheng complains about the poor family.
"Li Changsheng, just wait for me! This matter is not over yet!"
After Zhao Donghai said these harsh words, he planned to leave with the Zhao family scholars.
"Brother Donghai, please stay!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd.
Everyone followed the sound and saw that it was Wang Run leading a group of scholars from Jieying Society.
"Brother Wang Run."
"Prince."
The scholars present all came to greet him, whether they were scholars from the Zhao family or Hanyi Society students, including Ji Changsheng and Du Ning.
Etiquette must not be lost.
"Brother Wang Run, you came at the right time. This Li Changsheng is really outrageous!"
Zhao Donghai said respectfully: "My Dongcheng family just criticized Du Ning a few words in the Nanping Wenbao, and Du Ning used his instant literary courage to tear Dongcheng Wen Palace apart. You are the leader of our Jieying Society and also the prefect."
My son is of high moral character and respect, please come and give us your judgment."
Li Changsheng, however, was not afraid of Wang Run and said slowly: "Brother Wang Run, you guys from the Jieying Society have repeatedly insulted my poor students, and now you have gathered people to make trouble in front of Mr. Du's house. If you don't give us a
Li Mou told the magistrate."
Wang Run is the son of the prefect, and Li Changsheng's advice to his father is just a euphemism.
If his father doesn't listen, then it won't be a private communication, but it will be brought to the Suzhou Yamen court.
By that time, no matter who it is in Jieyingshe, it seems that they can’t stand it anymore.
Wang Run smiled and cupped his hands to Li Changsheng: "Brother Li, don't worry, this matter is our fault, Jieying Club, and Zhao Dongcheng's fault. In the name of Jieying Club, I apologize to Hanyi Club on behalf of the Zhao family, and also
Apologize to Mr. Du."
As soon as the words fell, the faces of the scholars in the Zhao family changed wildly. They couldn't believe that as a powerful man, how could Wang Run apologize to Du Ning? How could he say such a thing?
Li Changsheng was also surprised. He had never seen Wang Run apologize to anyone on weekdays. Why did he change his attitude today?
Wang Run said to Du Ning: "Master Du, Zhao Dongcheng is responsible for what happened today. I can't blame you. Although we are divided into two opposing societies, to put it bluntly, we are all scholars, students of the saints, and we are all for the rise of our country.
And when you study, if you study for the benefit of all people in the world, you should have a gentleman's mind."
"If Mr. Du doesn't dislike it, wouldn't it be better if Wang holds a banquet at Wangjiang Tower three days later and everyone has two drinks to turn the hostility into friendship and remain friends from now on?"
As soon as he finished speaking, people around him praised him one after another.
"Young Master Wang is a noble man and a true gentleman!"
"To put it bluntly, it's just a dispute over literary names and a misunderstanding."
"That's right! We are all scholars. We meet each other with our heads down but not our heads up. Why should we cause discord?"
All the students from Jieying Club echoed with smiles on their faces.
