All the great scholars from aristocratic families also looked at Fu Shuyun, with different expressions on their faces.
Some were shocked, some were puzzled, some were confused, and some were angry.
Many great scholars kept winking at Fu Shuyun, hoping that Fu Shuyun could calm down and stop acting out of emotion.
"No need for you to remind me, of course I know what I am doing."
Fu Shuyun turned a blind eye to everyone's looks and said slowly: "Although I am older, my vision is not short. The proposal to abolish the privileges of the All Saints Family is the most important decision in the contemporary era that is conducive to the progress of the human race. Yun Qijun has a more advanced
The views of our current era... No, it should be said that he has a longer-term vision than we do, so he put forward this major proposal."
"What a joke! How could abolishing the privileges of the All Saints Family be beneficial to the human race? I don't agree!" The representative of the Ji family of Yun Kingdom immediately spoke out.
"Well said! The privileges of the All Saints Family must not be abolished. This is the bottom line!"
Ke Changzhi said loudly: "We, the Ke family, also firmly disagree with the abolition of the privileges of the All Saints Family. This is a fundamental move that shakes the foundation of the human race and is a ridiculous act that will seriously harm the human race!"
"And me, I don't agree either..."
"I object too. No matter what, I can't just watch the human race decline!"
More and more great scholars stood up and spoke out, and each one of them was filled with indignation and shared the same hatred.
Fu Shuyun's expression remained unchanged. Faced with the oppression of many great scholars, he just smiled.
He is old and has long lost the enthusiasm of young people.
But he also sees many things in the world clearly, and his vision is longer-term than those who only care about the interests of their respective families.
"Quiet! Quiet!"
Conde slapped the alarm and said loudly: "This is the Hall of Confucianism and the site of an important meeting. Please keep calm at all times, Confucians!"
All the great scholars closed their mouths one after another, but raised their heads very proudly, looking at the world with an expression that they were confident of winning.
At this moment, Comte also raised his hand.
Even though many of the great scholars present had been mentally prepared, they all felt extremely angry at this moment.
The Holy Family actually expressed support for Duning’s view of abolishing the privileges of the All Saints Family!
Everyone thought of Duke Yan's initiative to abolish the Confucius family's privilege of choosing the general leader in Sanjie Mountain in the Holy Court Hall, and they thought it must be Duke Yan's suggestion as the head of the family.
Yansheng of the Kong family has high moral standards and is a carefully selected family leader within the Kong family. As long as everyone still recognizes him as the head of the family, they will remain neutral even if no one directly opposes him.
Duke Yansheng’s status in the Confucius family is very high!
But this does not determine the outcome of the public discussion.
Normally, no one wants to offend the Holy Family, but once the interests of the Holy Family are involved, the families will join forces to fight against the Kong family.
After all, this is related to the future and development of the entire human race!
Conde put down his hand and continued: "The Great Confucian Hall has been discussing this matter for the past two days, and there has been no more satisfactory conclusion so far. So I invited Mr. Yunqi to the scene today just to ask Mr. Yunqi to comment on his
Advocate for a clearer view."
Everyone looked at Du Ning.
"Students take orders."
Du Ning handed over to Comte, and then said loudly to everyone: "You are all great Confucians. Even if you don't admit it with your mouth, you should know in your heart that there are certain drawbacks to the privileges of the saints' family. The existence of those pedantic privileges has given people
Many people have brought disaster. If things continue like this, the All Saints Family will soon begin to corrupt..."
"Insolent! You dare to say that the All Saints Family will become corrupt. This is the biggest slander against the All Saints Family. You are simply treasonous!" Ke Changzhi said loudly.
"Quiet!"
Kong De shouted sternly, "Mr. Ke Changzhi, Mr. Yun Qi is speaking now. If you have something to say, you have to wait until he has finished his speech before making a rebuttal. Otherwise, the Great Confucian Hall will despise you and expel you from the meeting." "Yes..."
Ke Changzhi had no choice but to hold back his emotions, cast a resentful look at Du Ning, and shoot the first bird. If he was expelled from the Great Confucian Palace for contempt of Confucianism, the Ke family would be laughed at and become another shame to the Liao Kingdom. p>
Du Ning continued: "My opinion is very simple. The All Saints Family can retain some of the preferential treatment privileges of the Holy Academy. After all, the merits of the All Saints cannot be insulted. Giving appropriate preferential treatment to the All Saints Family is also a token of gratitude for the Saints' contribution to the human race." "But for those privileges of aristocratic families that have serious drawbacks, we must unconditionally abolish them. Only in this way can we achieve the fair strategy of 'princes who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people', so that the scholars of the saints' families can restrain themselves and no longer use the privileges of aristocratic families.
As their unscrupulous support, we can completely eradicate the luck mentality of scholars from aristocratic families, so that mankind can step out from the pedantic rules. This is the blessing of humankind and the blessing of the world."
Some of the great scholars nodded slightly, thinking that Du Ning's words were very reasonable, but they still could not change their determination to firmly deny the abolition of the privileges of aristocratic families.
Even a part of it is not willing.
In the minds of most people, the abolition of the privileges of the All Saints family seriously infringes on their interests, so they naturally have to keep the golden rice bowl of the family privileges.
"Next, I will briefly talk about three privileges of aristocratic families that should be abolished. As for other privileges that should be abolished, they will be supplemented or discussed by the great scholars of various countries."
Du Ning continued: "First, the privilege of lenient sentencing for serious crimes committed by scholars from the Saints' family will be abolished."
After the words fell, many great scholars from aristocratic families changed their expressions, glared at Du Ning, and their eyes spit fire.
This is one of the privileges that establishes the status of the All Saints Family. Once abolished, the All Saints Family's status will be greatly exploited.
A few great scholars such as Fan Heshan and Fu Shuyun nodded silently. Although this privilege can consolidate the status of the Saints Family, it is a cancer that must be eliminated.
"Second, the privilege of exempting scholars from saints' families to the greatest extent or reducing their punishments will be abolished."
"Third, the privilege of preferentially selecting all saints' families to hold important positions shall be abolished."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
More great scholars were angry. The abolition of such privileges would destroy the positions that many aristocratic families should have and the possibility of many aristocratic families to "take the back door" in the Holy Court.
Kongde said: "Master Yunqi proposed three family privileges that should be abolished. If you have any different opinions, please raise your hands and speak."
Before he finished speaking, seven to eight hundred great scholars quickly raised their hands.
"None of these three privileges can be abolished. Once abolished, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"The All Saints family deserves to enjoy such privileges and preferential treatment, why should it be abolished?"
"There is absolutely no way we will agree to this!"
Opposition voices arise one after another.
"Quiet! Quiet! Don't make noise, don't make a mess!"
Conde hurriedly slapped the gavel.
"Since everyone has their own opinions, asking and discussing one by one will only waste more time, so let's hold a vote according to the rules of the Holy Academy. No matter what the result is, it is only for the reference of the saints. After all, the decision to abolish the privileges of the saints family is
It has gone beyond the decision-making scope of the Great Confucian Palace."
Comte said: "If you are in favor of abolishing the three privileges of aristocratic families, please vote in favor; if you are opposed, please vote against; if you remain neutral, please vote neutral."
As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately wrote on the bamboo cards on their respective tables.
A force of talent manifested itself, forming a curtain of light in the air with the results of the vote written on it.
Everyone can tell at a glance that there are less than 100 votes in favor of abolishing the privileges of the family, while more than 800 votes are firmly opposed, and less than 100 votes remain neutral.
"Haha..." Ke Changzhi couldn't help laughing.
"The results of the first vote have come out. The majority of votes are against the abolition of the privileges of the family. Therefore, the vote will be won by the one with the most votes against it."
Conde said: "Based on the results of this vote, please vote again to determine whether you agree with the result of the first vote, but no matter what the result is, the Great Confucian Palace will submit this report to the saints for reference."
The great scholars from various countries voted immediately and passed the first voting result with an absolute advantage.
"Hey...it's really hard to survive alone..."
Fu Shuyun sighed and said to Du Ning: "Before the saints make the final vote, they will refer to the results of the votes of the great scholars of the famous families. Once more than 80% of the people oppose the abolition of the privileges of the famous families, your proposal will most likely fail.
."
Du Ning nodded lightly, and then said: "The saints have a long-term vision. No matter what happens, the saints will definitely support my suggestion in the end."
"Shameless words!"
"Ridiculous!"
"Who do you think you are!"
Many great scholars scorned and ridiculed Du Ning and disliked him very much.
"Quiet!"
Comte looked a little angry. If it weren't for the important occasion here, just their rude words to Du Ning would be enough to give them a slap and a warning.
Those people didn't take this seriously, but raised their heads slightly towards Du Ning, feeling very proud.
"Now, we can only ask the saints to vote."
Comte wrote the contents of the first vote into a document, then placed it in the direction of the temple, cupped his hands and said: "Please vote for the saints."
Waves of powerful thoughts came from the Holy Temple and descended on the entire Great Confucian Hall.
Comte's document was lifted up by a strange force and suspended in mid-air.
Ke Changzhi was very proud, thinking he was sure of victory.
What's more, there are so many great scholars present who hold objections. If Du Ning wants to win, there is absolutely no hope.
Many great scholars looked at Du Ning with contempt, as if they were condescending.
After a moment, two words appeared in mid-air.
Passed!
The will of the saints passed the first vote of the Great Confucian Hall, rejecting Du Ning's suggestion to abolish the three privileges of the saints' family.
"Haha..."
Great scholars from all over the world laughed.
"Hey..."
Fan Heshan looked decadent and was very disappointed with the vote of the saints. You should know that even Fan Qianfeng of his family agreed with Du Ning, so the other saints should also adopt Du Ning's opinion.
Don't expect things to backfire.
Fu Shuyun showed an expression of "as expected" and expressed regret for Du Ning.
The saints denied it, and the privileges of the saints' family were defended by the saints.
