They were all scholars under Xue Shifeng, and they all followed Xue Shifeng's orders to splash horse manure outside Du Ning's tent.
Du Ning sent someone to invite Xue Shifeng to come. Xue Shifeng would definitely protect them and would not punish them at all.
At best, he was just showing off in front of Du Ning.
Therefore, these scholars did not have any worries at all. Instead, they showed contempt and disdain for Du Ning. They looked down on Du Ning very much.
In their eyes, Du Ning is so ridiculous. Do you think that just by inviting Xue Shifeng here they can be punished?
How ridiculous!
Du Ning had a panoramic view of the expressions of these people. Seeing these people's unrepentant looks, he sneered in his heart. If Xue Shifeng could enforce the law impartially, he would not embarrass these people, but if Xue Shifeng dared to protect these people
, Du Ning will never be used to it, and will make these people pay the price they deserve.
Not long after, Xue Shifeng arrived at the scene with a group of Hanlin scholars.
"Brother Xue."
"General Xue."
Those scholars bowed their hands to Xue Shifeng with smiles on their faces.
"Um."
Xue Shifeng nodded slightly, which was regarded as a return gift. He glanced around and asked, knowingly: "What happened?"
Du Ning said: "Brother Xue, these are the people who poured horse manure outside my tent. Please enforce the law and punish them severely. I, the scholars of the Holy Forest Continent, must not suffer such humiliation repeatedly."
"oh?"
Xue Shifeng pretended to look at the door of Du Ning's tent, then his eyes fell on the scholars who were throwing horse manure, and he shouted coldly: "You are so brave, how dare you do such a thing, you are simply giving us the great Zhou Dynasty."
I have been smeared by many scholars, but you still won’t let me apologize to Mr. Du!”
"What? Let us apologize to him?"
"Who is he?"
"ridiculous!"
The faces of those scholars changed, showing extremely unconvinced expressions, and they were not willing to apologize to Du Ning at all.
"Huh? You dare to disobey my order?"
Xue Shifeng's face darkened and he became a little unhappy.
Seeing Xue Shifeng's whole face pulled down, those scholars did not dare to neglect, so they had to admit their mistake to Du Ning.
"I made a mistake, please forgive me Mr. Du."
"I can't help Mr. Du, so please don't take it to heart."
"We sincerely apologize to Mr. Du. Mr. Du should be satisfied!"
These people just gave Du Ning a perfunctory hand and said they were apologizing to Du Ning, but there was no sense of sincerity in the apology.
Du Ning suppressed the anger in his heart and was about to say something.
At this moment, Xue Shifeng smiled and said to Du Ning: "Master Du, since these people have apologized to you, please forgive them. It's just a trivial matter. Don't hurt the harmony."
"Oh? As a scholar of the Zhou Dynasty and a descendant of the Xue family of Qi, this is how you settled the case? Can such a bad thing be revealed with just an apology?" Du Ning sneered.
"What do you want Mr. Du?" Xue Shifeng asked jokingly.
"According to the rules of your Zhou dynasty's patriarchal system, they are Jinshi, I am Hanlin, my Confucianism and Taoism are higher than theirs, and my status is higher than theirs. They threw excrement outside my tent as a Jinshi. The following is an offense, and it is treason.
, deserves to be punished with a cane.”
Hearing the word "stick punishment", many scholars showed a little fear in their eyes. The Zhou Dynasty advocated the patriarchal legal system and also paid attention to punishment. The stick punishment here was administered by scholars with strong cultivation. If
If we enforce the law against these Jinshi scholars, we will definitely beat them to pieces. Without a month or two of self-cultivation, they will not be able to get out of bed.
Although they were afraid of the cane punishment, those Jinshi scholars did not feel overly panicked because they did not think they would be punished by Xue Shifeng. After all, they followed Xue Shifeng's order to throw excrement outside Du Ning's tent. If they were punished for this,
Then who else is willing to work for Xue Shifeng in the future?
This is the Zhou Dynasty and the Xue family army. They believe that Xue Shifeng will definitely absolve them of their guilt.
"presumptuous!"
Xue Shifeng spoke. He looked at Du Ning and said: "My Xue family army is crusading against foreign tribes. Now is the time to recruit people. These people are all Jinshi geniuses of our Zhou Dynasty. How can we say that the punishment of the rod is the punishment of the rod? As a saint, you
Do the scholars in Lin Dalu only care about personal grievances and forget about the righteousness of the human race?"
"Brother Xue is serious. At this moment and here, there is someone who only cares about personal grudges and forgets about the righteousness of the human race."
The corner of Du Ning's mouth raised slightly, revealing a bit of sarcasm. The implication was that the guy who forgot the justice of the human race was not Du Ning himself, but the Xue Shifeng in front of him.
"presumptuous!"
Xue Shifeng looked at Du Ning and said loudly: "I am a general, and you are the vanguard under my command. Just by your words, you can be punished in the army for the crime of disrespect. I have good intentions to resolve your grievances. Don't give me anything."
Shameless!"
"So you are so open and honest about protecting your people? This is not the first time, but the second time. The first time I could not pursue it, but now it is the second time. I have been caught and I have no right to demand it.
Punish them?"
Du Ning was not angry, but looked as usual, but every word he said was somewhat sarcastic.
Xue Shifeng suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and said: "I know you are angry, but you cannot blame them entirely for this matter. It must be your bad conduct, so they poured horse manure on the door of your tent. This is
This is a warning to you, but they are also at fault after all, so they can just apologize to you, why do you have to be so aggressive?"
"Does this mean that if I think there is something wrong with your character, I can throw horse manure at the door of your tent and just apologize?"
"presumptuous!"
Xue Shifeng was furious, but he did not dare to answer Du Ning's rhetorical question directly.
"It seems that even Brother Xue can't tolerate others throwing horse manure at the door of his house. Since you can't tolerate it, why should you ask me to tolerate it? Who are you!"
Du Ning raised his head slightly, exuding a strong pressure and looking down at Xue Shifeng.
"That's enough! Xue has no time to mess around with you here. Since they have apologized, you should forgive them." Xue Shifeng said.
"If they sincerely admit their mistakes and apologize sincerely, I can forgive them, but they do not realize their mistakes and lack the sincerity and attitude to apologize, so I will definitely not forgive them. This matter will not be forgotten like this.
." Du Ning said.
"Then what do you want?" Xue Shifeng asked.
"It's very simple. Do you remember what I said last time? Whoever throws horse manure, I will let him eat it." Du Ning said calmly. Those who like Confucianism and Taoism, please collect it: (www.sodu777.net) Confucianism and Taoism
