Chapter 173
Now it's good that not only the military strategists came forward to suppress Yang Zheng, but even the Taoist people came to challenge and took advantage of the situation to rob.
Yang Zheng faced two groups of people alone. Putting aside his strength, the gap between the two sides in the scene was too great, and he felt like a lamb fell into a wolf pack.
"Taoist, surnamed Tian..."
When Yang Zheng heard this person's name, he felt a little nervous, "He said, I injured his younger brother, and Tian Yuan is also Mengchangjun's son. It seems that I want to be an enemy of his family."
Behind Tian Yuan, a young man walked out and said with a smile: "Although the young master took action personally, the surname Yang will definitely fail, but I also want to show off. After all, if a student can bully a guest official, this will definitely leave a name in the history of the academy, haha!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone echoed and laughed.
Indeed, it is unprecedented for Yang Zheng to be a guest minister in the Academy, and there is probably no one to come. From another perspective, this is also the most recent gap in strength between guest ministers and students. Who can defeat guest ministers will of course be a kind of honor.
Of course, this was actually Yang Zheng's shame, and also made Xunzi feel ashamed.
The man looked unruly and said with a stern voice: "Taoist, Hu Buyi, challenge Yang Zheng!"
Tian Yuan and Hu Buyi took the lead, and the Taoist people all took the blame and stood up to challenge Yang Zheng. This situation was as if Yang Zheng was going to be exhausted to death today.
Yang Zheng was not surprised by this situation. He had already formed a gang with Taoism and was close to Xunzi. He was valued by Xunzi and would not be suppressed and excluded by Taoism. Since all the enemies were gathered together, he didn't mind cleaning up and leaving Qi State in a grand manner.
After the Taoist group of people fought, he coughed dryly, turned his gaze to the onlookers, and asked, "Anyway, I have many opponents, and there are not many more. Is there anyone who can't get along with me? Just go together!"
When everyone heard this, they were shocked. Yang Zheng was really arrogant. Faced with so many people's provocations, he not only did not fear at all, but he even said such words. Does he think that the hundreds of disciples in Jixia Academy are all decorations?
At this moment, another young man walked out of the crowd and stared at Yang Zheng and said, "Although I really want to challenge you, I don't want to take advantage of others' dangers and make your advantage. I heard that you were attacked four days ago and were seriously injured. Now you must have not recovered."
Yang Zheng was stunned, but he didn't expect the other party to say this.
This man is right. Although he left the back mountain and was able to move freely, his injuries did not recover and he still needed some time to recuperate. Military and Taoist people bullied him, and he had to face the battle and did not intend to use his injuries as an excuse to escape.
However, this strange young man took the initiative to excuse him and said he wanted to challenge him. Where did it come from?
Before he could speak, Sima Jian was already displeased and said coldly: "He Jun, young mother-in-law, there is nothing you do here! If you want to challenge Yang Zheng, just issue a letter of war immediately. If you don't dare, get out of here!"
The Zongheng family is best at disrupting the situation, which is well-known. Seeing that He Jun’s intentions were wrong, Sima Jian did not dare to let him continue and wanted to drive him away to avoid ruining his good deeds.
Yang Zheng seemed to be thinking and didn't say anything.
He Jun glanced at Sima Jian, not intimidated by his tyranny, and retorted: "Yang Zheng is the one he likes to the ancestor of the Magistrate, and he has the Taoist seed of the sages of the sect. Why is there no one for us? I don't object to send someone to challenge him, but if he takes action before he recovers from his injury, it will be unfair to win!"
The assassination in Tingfenglou has spread throughout the city, and everyone onlookers have heard of this. Therefore, when He Jun made a note, they all agreed. Yang Zheng is a guest minister and deserves respect from his apprentices. It is too rude to challenge him when he is injured.
Yang Zheng blinked and quickly guessed He Jun's complex psychology.
During the winter test, he swore in public that he would not join the Zongheng family. For the Zongheng family, of course, he was hostile to him and wanted to defeat him and smash his pride. But on the other hand, they could not go against the will of the ancestor Guiguzi and watched Yang Zheng be deposed.
It made Yang Zheng realize the cruelty of the world and was forced to enter the Zongheng family to practice Taoism. This was the result He Jun wanted to see the most.
Therefore, He Jun immediately stood up and spoke for him, not to rescue him, but also as if he was rescued.
Sima Jian was not expecting this incident and was unable to get rid of the tiger. He was not sure how to respond. At this time, Tian Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered.
"The Zongheng family is really interesting. Yang Zheng obviously doesn't like you, so why bother to put a hot face on his cold butt and say good things for him? He Jun, don't you feel embarrassed?"
His words are neither yin nor yang, and they sound extremely harsh.
He Jun's face changed slightly. He was worthy of being a member of the straitor. He spoke quickly and said, "Young Master misunderstood. I have no intention of stopping you from challenging him. I just talk about the matter and don't want him to have an excuse to refuse the defeat."
Tian Yuan heard that He Jun had no intention of offending him, and his face calmed down, "What do you think, what should you do?"
He Jun said in a deep voice: "It's very simple. Anyway, he is a guest minister and will often come to the school in the future. You might as well give him a month to cure his injuries first. At that time, before you can take action, I will be the first to stand up and challenge him and teach him how to be a human being!"
Afraid that Sima Jian had concerns, he added: "Of course, if he was so scared that he wouldn't dare to go back to the school, wouldn't that be a big joke? It would be much more ironic than being crushed by us!"
Sima Jian snorted coldly and said expressionlessly: "Since that's the case, then follow..."
He wanted to say, then according to your suggestion, give Yang Zheng another month, but unexpectedly, Yang Zheng suddenly chuckled.
"Is it interesting if you guys discuss here for a long time?"
He Jun and Sima Jian were stunned at the same time.
One of them excused Yang Zheng without authorization, while the other was reluctant to give up and discussed it happily, but never considered how Yang Zheng, as the party involved, would decide.
Yang Zheng kept watching coldly, looking at them like an idiot. At this moment, he could no longer help and said, "It's true that I have injuries, but it's not the turn of others to be self-indulgent and help me buy time. I will never owe the favors of the Zongheng family in this life."
He knew that He Junan was not kind-hearted, and he didn't want outsiders to mistakenly think that he was the favor of the Zongheng family. Isn't it just a fight? Fighting early and fighting late, there is no big difference. He would rather fight with injuries than have anything to do with the Zongheng family.
He Jun's face was stiff and ugly than Sima Jian.
He thought that his performance just now was perfect, so that Yang Zheng could see the methods of the Zongheng family and be grateful to him. Unfortunately, his tricks could not catch Yang Zheng's eyes at all, and he could not even sell this favor.
"No need to change the days. If you want to fight, just fight today!"
Yang Zheng glanced at everyone without any turbulence.
When everyone heard this, their expressions were complicated and they thought to themselves, this kid is really bold!
At this time, a voice suddenly rang out in the air, interrupting their thoughts, "No fight today. A group of apprentices are willing to challenge the injured guest officials. If this matter is spread, where can the face of the academy be put?"
