After hearing what Ke Changpu said, both Qin Wengong and Wei Boqing showed expressions of disbelief, almost unable to believe what they heard.
The grievances and resentments between the Ke family of the Liao Kingdom and Du Ning can no longer be explained clearly in a few words. The Ke family of the Liao Kingdom has been reduced to the land it is in today, basically thanks to Du Ning.
Almost every scholar of the Ke family wished to cut Du Ning alive to vent their hatred.
It stands to reason that as long as it is about Du Ning, the Ke family will actively participate.
However, at this moment, Ke Changpu, the head of the Ke family of the Liao Kingdom, directly rejected this plan against Du Ning after hearing Qin Wengong's offer of cooperation.
This made Qin Wengong and Wei Boqing very confused. What is Ke Changpu's attitude? Has he given up because he was beaten by Du Ning?
"Mr. Ke, what do you mean? In the past, you Ke family always targeted Du Ning, why didn't you dare to do it this time?" Wei Boqing said with an unhappy look on his face.
Qin Wengong said: "In the past six months, you Ke family scholars have been very low-key in the literary circles of various countries. What happened to make you Ke family so afraid of Du Ning? If the head of the Ke family said it in front of us, would you be afraid?
Du Ning, we will never force ourselves too hard."
"It's ridiculous! Who is Du Ning? As the head of the Ke family, how can I, Ke Changpu, be afraid of him?"
Ke Changpu became angry from embarrassment, gritted his teeth and said: "I, Ke Changpu, really want to kill...ahem...teach him a lesson and let him know how powerful our family members are!"
After all, Ke Changpu did not dare to directly say that he wanted to "kill Du Ning" because this place was under the rule of the Holy Court and there were many saints in charge, and Du Ning was a human king. If anyone dared to say that he wanted to kill Du Ning,
The saints will definitely be aware of Ning's words, and will impose holy punishments to nip all crises that are not good for Du Ning in the cradle.
"In that case, why doesn't Mr. Ke help me? Don't you have confidence in my plan? Or do you think Qin's plan will fail?" Qin Wengong asked.
"Hey... you two don't know something!"
Ke Changpu sighed and said: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Our Ke family has been suppressed by Du Ning in the past two years, and our reputation has plummeted. It has become a shame in the literary world of Liao Dynasty. As a scholar of the Ke family, why don't we want to win?"
Overcoming Du Ning and restoring the prestige of our Ke family in the past? When we learned that Du Ning was about to take office in Lanzhou, we also wanted to use some force to put pressure on Du Ning, but that person suddenly arrived and we were not allowed to do it.
Something bad happened to Du Ning, so..."
"That one? Who?"
Qin Wengong was confused. Even though the Ke family was far less prestigious than before, with a semi-saint in charge, was there anyone the Ke family could be afraid of?
"That's the one!"
Ke Changpu did not dare to mention Ke Yufeng's holy name, for fear that Ke Yufeng would know about his conversation with Qin Wengong and Wei Boqing here, so he could only deliberately increase his tone and point upward.
Qin Wengong suddenly realized it, a cold sweat broke out on his back, and he did not dare to say a word.
No wonder the scholars of the Ke family have been so restrained in the past six months. During this period, it was basically the scholars headed by the Qin family who provoked Du Ning in the literary world. There was no news of the scholars of the Ke family being active. It turned out that it was not that they gave in, but that Ke
Yufeng issued an edict to the family that no member of the Ke family was allowed to participate in any disputes over Du Ning's governance of Lanzhou.
It is precisely because of this that in the literary circles of other countries, the scholars of the Qin family have been finding faults in the eggs, looking for loopholes in Du Ning's governance of Lanzhou. However, within the literary circles of the Liao State, they were pushed by many scholars of the Liao State's aristocratic families.
It came to the forefront and was reviled by many scholars.
If any scholar reads the newspapers and newspapers from various places in the Liao Kingdom, he will find that scholars from all over the Liao Kingdom are very disgusted with many scholars headed by the Qin family, and almost scold them without any limit.
Therefore, in the past six months, the scholars of the Ke family have inexplicably felt that their ears are clear, and all the abuse has been redirected to the scholars of the Qin family, causing the scholars of the Qin family to bear a lot of tremendous pressure.
Qin Wengong had no choice but to shut his mouth. Ke Yufeng had already issued an edict not to allow the scholars of the Ke family to interfere in anything related to Du Ning. However, at this moment, he wanted to drag Ke Changpu into trouble. If Ke Yufeng knew about this matter,
Qin Wengong has to finish it. He is just an ordinary scholar, but he does not have the strength and qualifications to challenge the semi-saints.
"In that case, let's just assume Qin didn't say anything just now."
Qin Wengong spoke cautiously and winked at Ke Changpu.
Ke Changpu understood and said: "Mr. Qin was just joking. Of course we won't take it seriously. Mr. Wei, are you right?"
Wei Boqing nodded hurriedly and said: "That's it, that's it. Actually, my memory is not very good. I didn't hear clearly what Mr. Qin said just now..."
After the three of them looked at each other, they couldn't help but reveal a somewhat embarrassed smile.
"I suddenly remembered that there was something important, so I took my leave."
Ke Changpu handed over to the two of them, stood up and prepared to leave.
"Mr. Ke, please walk slowly. We will not send you far."
"Mr. Ke, see you soon."
Wei Boqing and Qin Wengong also stood up and handed each other goodbye.
After seeing Ke Changpu off, the two sat down again and continued drinking tea.
"Mr. Qin, have you really decided to go out and target Du Ning personally? Even the Ke family member chose to avoid his edge. How about we just let it go? How can the Ke family member's vision be comparable to mine? Although
I'm very reluctant to admit it, but it's obvious that the person who came here must have foreseen something." Wei Boqing said with an ugly face.
Qin Wengong secretly clenched his fists and said slowly: "No! I don't believe it! We finally had a plan against Du Ning, how could we just give up? We are not doing it for our own selfishness, but for the etiquette and laws of the human race. In the future of the human race, the Legalist idea of "ending punishment with punishment" must not be subverted by the "New Law of China", even if the Legalists introduce it as a new idea of the Holy Way. That sanctimonious guy Du Ning simply cannot With such qualifications, who is he?"
Wei Boqing showed a bit of fear and said: "Although I agree with your idea, even the Ke family member...forget it! It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years..."
"Hmph! Mr. Wei, are you giving in?"
Qin Wengong said: "As a great scholar of the human race, I will never tolerate the trampling of the etiquette and laws of the human race. I must defend the legalist thoughts of the holy way. It's up to you to decide this matter!"
"Okay...Okay..."
Wei Boqing replied tremblingly, but a sneer flashed in his eyes. He had angered Qin Wengong by using some tricks, so even if Qin Wengong failed, he would not be considered an accomplice.
