Chapter 327 The Xiyi dog will be punished by the Ming Dynasty!

   Zhang Pu and a group of Confucian scholars watched this scene in astonishment.

  They didn't expect that Cao Benrong would suddenly stop giving up the exam because of this.

  Cao Benrong did not expect that he would have to make such a choice.

  But for him, it was a choice he had to make.

   After all, it is too difficult for him to refuse the kindness of the imperial court!

   You know, his family has not been a Jinshi for three generations.

  Whether it was his grandfather or his father, or himself, or even all the people and neighbors in the clan, they all hoped that he could win the crown and become a Jinshi master.

  Cao Benrong himself has already failed for the third time in a row, and he is still tirelessly trying to take part in the imperial examination, which shows how much he hopes to get a Jinshi in the imperial examination.

   Now, the imperial court has increased the number of Jinshi to 500, how can he just sit back and watch himself lose this opportunity with a greater probability of being ranked first?

   Therefore, and because of this, Cao Benrong suddenly felt that no ritual system and kingly way are fragrant, as long as he can realize his dream of honoring his ancestors.

  Can etiquette and kingship compare to the importance of honoring one's ancestors?

  Cao Benrong then, under the shocked and contemptuous eyes of the Confucian scholars, abandoned the boat and landed, heading for the capital.

   "The emperor's kindness is vast, and the emperor is thirsty for talents. How can we refer to it regardless of the king's worries. As for the maintenance of famous teachings, let's take it slowly."

   "Yes, let's refer to it, the court cannot be full of treacherous officials and villains. How can scholars be willful?!"

  Most of the Confucian scholars could not refuse the temptation to have more opportunities to become officials, and each of them began to find their own excuses to explain why they suddenly gave up the exam again, and then they all followed Cao Benrong, preparing to return to the capital.

Seeing this, Zhang Pu became furious. He didn't expect that his fellow scholars would be so vulnerable in front of the court's so-called "ende". When a bone comes, it wags its tail.

  This made Zhang Pu feel very uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists and said, "We are not dogs! We are scholars who continue to learn for the past saints! The imperial court can't humiliate us like this, and we can't despise ourselves like this!"

   "What do you want brother to do?"

  At this time, the Confucian scholar who came with Zhang Pu asked.

  Zhang Pu also followed the abandoned boat and went ashore and said: "Beat the drum on Deng Wen, implore the imperial court to abide by the ancestral system, restore the old imperial examinations, and withdraw the edict to increase the number of Jinshi to 500 in order to show favor to the scholars of the world!"

   Then, Zhang Pu said again: "Any gentleman with blood should not despise himself so much. He should stop taking the exam if he says he wants to, instead of being an inconsistency, hypocrisy and cunning villain!"

  Many Confucian scholars were shocked when they heard this, and then cursed Zhang Pu one after another.

   "Zhang Gandu, how can you destroy His Majesty's grace, everyone's future!"

   "Zhang Gandu, you are a fame-seeking person, you will only bring shame on yourself by doing this!"

   "Zhang Gandu, if you do this, you will die badly, and no one will sympathize with you!"

  …

  But Zhang Pu didn't listen to these people, and resolutely walked to the capital.

  Cao Benrong was about to arrive at the capital and was about to enter the city, but several Confucian scholars from Xilin Academy blocked his way.

  Among them, Confucian scholar Li Yu asked Cao Benrong: "Are you Cao Xinmu?"

  Cao Benrong replied: "I am right, I wonder who this friend is?"

Li Yudao: "You don't have to ask me who I am, I just admire your feat of beating the drum for a foreign guest in the past, let me ask you, you really don't agree with the saying of 'respecting the Ming and degrading the barbarians', but think that people in the Ming Kingdom are not Should it be above all barbarians?"

  Cao Benrong didn't know Li Yu's true identity, he just thought he was an ordinary Confucian scholar who came to see him out of admiration, so he puffed up his chest and said, "Naturally! If the common people are slaves, how can they be disrespectful to allies for being slaves?"

  Li Yu asked with a smile after hearing this: "Since this is the case, if foreigners kill Han people, how should we deal with it?"

  Cao Benrong said: "If the person who was killed was a commoner, forgive him if he can! If it is a nobleman's request, he should also consider not damaging the diplomatic relations between the two countries."

  Li Yu still only smiled slightly, and immediately cupped his hands: "Thanks for being taught!"

   Then, Li Yu left here with a group of Confucian scholars from Xilin Academy.

  Cao Benrong was stunned for a while, and he didn't know why people like Li Yu asked such a question.

   And when he was about to walk towards the gate of the outer city of the capital, a Xiyi man suddenly appeared in front of him, and directly pulled out the broken blade and stabbed him in the chest.

  The Xiyi man also sneered: "Now that I kill you, shouldn't you also think that my behavior can be forgiven?"

"you!"

  Cao Benrong was very surprised and asked, "Why did you kill me?"

  The Xiyi man smiled and said, "Why do you ask why you kill someone?"

  Cao Benrong said: "You will be tortured! Your Majesty has just issued a decree that foreigners who kill Han people are all accomplices in treason!"

  The Xiyi people asked: "Didn't you want your majesty to return this imperial decree? Why are you thinking of threatening me with this imperial decree now? Are you cheap?!"

  Cao Benrong panted heavily, and said weakly: "I regret it! From the moment you killed me, I regret it! You barbarians don't know good from bad. Not only do you not appreciate my speaking for you, but you even want to kill me!"

  The Xiyi man replied: "You are wrong. It's not that we don't know the good and the bad, it's that you don't know the good and the bad. Besides, why should I be grateful to you, why should I be executed for disobeying the master's order?"

   Cao Benrong was taken aback when he heard this, and struggling to take his last breath, he asked, "Who is your master?"

  Xiyi said: "It's okay to tell you, the person who asked you just now is my master!"

  Cao Benrong realized that he had been fooled, and gritted his teeth: "How can they use foreign barbarians as slaves? This is not the etiquette that Confucianism should have!"

  Cao Benrong closed his eyes as he spoke.

  All the Confucian scholars who followed behind saw this scene.

   These Confucian scholars were quite angry for a while.

Because they didn't expect that the barbarian would kill Confucian scholars of the same class as them. This obviously touched their bottom line. In an instant, the concept of treating barbarians with courtesy collapsed at this moment, and they wished they could Immediately swallowed the barbarians alive.

  At this time, Jin Yiwei, who was guarding the outer city, came over.

   "Catch him! He killed Benchao Juzi!"

   "This barbarian should be hacked into pieces! Dare to kill Confucian scholars!"

   "You Jin Yiwei can't tolerate him!"

  In a moment, some Confucian scholars shouted angrily at Jin Yiwei who came over.

   At this time, the foreign barbarian knelt and explained to the Jin Yiwei who came: "I am not a foreign barbarian, I am a dog of the master. Even if you want to kill me, you have to ask my master what he means!"

  Li Yu came over at this time and patted the white-skinned foreigner's head: "He is indeed my dog, a Western pug I bought from Nanyang, called Laiwang."

   Li Yu told the white-skinned barbarian, "Laiwang, you can bark like a dog for the big guys."

  The white-skinned foreign barbarian called Laiwang really screamed.

  Wow!

  Wow!

  Wow!

   It caused all the wild dogs at the city gate to bark together.

At this time, a Confucian student said angrily: "How can you let a foreign barbarian be your dog? If you do this, it is not in line with the sage's way of treating barbarians with courtesy! Of course, regardless of this, even if this foreign barbarian is yours Dogs, but your dog has killed the Juren of the court, and must be punished by Ming Zhengdian!"
