When the powerful people start to act for their own lives, how strong can their action be?

In two days, all the famous great Confucians, Confucian schools, mountain gates, and academies in the Great Song, even those without names, or those that had long been broken, as long as there was still a trace of breath, were all brought to Bianliang.

Nearly half of the purple-green ministers, plus the emperor's rotten meat, were still placed in the palace.

Su Xing dared to kill, and it was a slaughter that dared to kill everyone.

The former emperor Zhao Huan and almost all the civil and military officials except for a few really misjudged.

They had feared Su Xing's strength before, but they really thought they could rely on the usual practices, culture, and traditions to restrain Su Xing, nothing more than being more respectful, holding him high, and letting Su Xing become an immortal sculpture.

But who knew that Su Xing's reaction was so great that it exceeded everyone's imagination, directly killing into the imperial palace, clearing almost all the purple-green officials present at the time, and even killing two emperors in a row. And looking at that appearance, it was like he was going to destroy the world if he didn't like it.

They were really scared.

And all the Confucian scholars, masters, Confucian schools, and Confucian children from various mountain gates and academies who were "sent" to Bianliang by the soldiers were all in a confused state.

Because as soon as they entered Bianliang, they immediately heard that there was a palace change. All kinds of news were flying everywhere, saying that Zhao Gou launched a palace change, imprisoned (killed) the former emperor, saying that the northern Jin people came to attack again, replaced the palace, saying that the military generals were in chaos, the military warlords of the late Tang Dynasty were in power again, saying that Zong Ze rebelled, cleared the royal family and became king...

The whole heart was in chaos, and it even began to affect the people and the army.

Then Su Xing took action directly, killed all the ministers who passed news to the outside, and then rightfully told Zhao Gou, Qin Gui, and Zong Ze to tell the army, the people, the Confucian scholars, and the whole world "exactly as it is," without changing a word of what happened.

He, Su Xing, why he started killing back from the north, how many people he killed, those people who should be killed, then he killed into the imperial palace and did what, said what, what is the situation of the Song Dynasty now, all of which were told directly without changing a word.

"Change one word, I will kill the person who changed it. Change ten words, misunderstand my behavior, misunderstand my meaning, I will kill everyone, including you."

Su Xing said to Zhao Gou, Qin Gui, Zong Ze, and all the civil and military officials behind him with calm eyes.

This was a very clear and unmistakable meaning. It really had to be exactly the same, and no one would be allowed to misunderstand.

"... As for scolding me as a chaotic thief... hehe."

Su Xing shook his head and turned out of the imperial palace, leaving everyone completely confused.

"Believe it or not, you are the chaotic thieves?"

On the third day, which was the fifth day Su Xing returned to this world, the clerks and eunuchs sent by the imperial court, holding the official court seal and even the emperor's jade seal, began to tell the people, the Confucian scholars, and everyone in Dongjing Bianliang what exactly happened.

Shocking!

Three views shattered!

Everyone felt that this world had become so strange in an instant, especially when Zhao Huan's corpse, a lump of rotten meat, wrapped in the emperor's clothing that represented the supreme imperial power, was hung in the most central and conspicuous place in Bianliang. Countless Confucian scholars knelt and cried, countless gentry were like mourning for their parents, the three cardinal guides and five constant virtues, the great etiquette of monarch and minister, everything was gone, everything was shattered.

Then that night, there was a sound of killing in the official residences where Confucian scholars, academies, mountain gates, and Confucian schools were concentrated.

Su Xing killed another ten thousand Confucian scholars, and it wasn't a so-called assassination, but walking directly into these buildings in full view, and then killing them one by one.

He didn't remember many memories of the past in the 21st century, but his memory was very good now.

During the day, anyone who cried for Zhao Huan, anyone who was like mourning for their parents, anyone who expressed derogatory remarks about the Northern Han people, anyone who expressed dissatisfaction with his destruction of the three cardinal guides and five constant virtues, anyone who was the highest reader, supreme imperial power... all killed!

The kind that exterminates the whole family!

It was also a waste of his whole day, fully exploding Dan Jin, walking around Bianliang everywhere.

A shocking tragedy, this was something that had never happened since ancient times. Almost all the people Su Xing killed were spread throughout the Great Song, from south to north, ten thousand Confucian scholars, their families, their old friends, their teachers, almost all of them were caught in one net.

The next day, Su Xing found Zhao Gou, Zong Ze, Qin Gui, and these imperial court officials again, and made a request again. "The propaganda team is very good. Today's propaganda task is, I will start to sweep away demons in the world later. I will visit the families of those Confucian scholars I killed, their Confucian schools, their old friends, their teacher-student relationships one by one, and still promote it without changing a word."

And then it was another day of the Great Song people's three views continuing to shatter...

That night, Su Xing visited these Confucian scholars and the remaining Confucian schools again, but this time he didn't kill anyone, but took out imperial wine from the imperial palace, and boar demon meat he specially roasted, listened to several Confucian children of the Gongyang school who were almost completely broken, talked about the past and present, and called Confucian scholars of the Mencius school to drink imperial wine and eat boar demon meat together. The sound of laughter echoed through the entire Bianliang.

The next day, the imperial court issued an edict, ordering all Confucian schools to debate the classics in the Zichen Hall in the imperial palace, to determine the orthodoxy of Huaxia, to determine the fate of the Han family in the future, and to determine the national fortune of the Great Song!

The content of this debate will be broadcast in real-time to everyone in Dongjing Bianliang by a large number of clerks and eunuchs.

Then Zhao Gou, Qin Gui, Zong Ze, and all the remaining civil and military ministers listened to the debate of the great Confucians with dumbfounded eyes.

"Zhao Huan is not worthy of being called an emperor! Even being buried with the people's ceremony is not worthy! This is a lone man! He should be burned and then smashed to ashes!"

This was the Lu Confucian faction, almost killed by Su Xing. The remaining few didn't happen to live together. At this time, their faces were flushed, and they scolded the Zhao Song imperial court, and determined that Zhao Huan was a tyrannical lone man, and the people of the world should have attacked him together long ago.

Even in the end, these remaining Lu Confucians knelt on the ground and knocked their foreheads broken, demanding that Zhao Huan's corpse be whipped to pieces, and then taken to feed the dogs. If not, it would be contrary to the will of all Huaxia people in the world.

Immediately after, Confucian scholars, great Confucians, and masters of various factions, academies, and regions appeared on the stage one after another, either scolding Zhao Huan, or scolding the court officials, denying their behavior of "letting go" of the north, and scolding their despicable behavior of selling the country and the people. These Confucian scholars all expressed that they would record their traitorous behavior of selling the country and the people in the literature and history, and they would be scolded by future generations for ten thousand years.

Some Confucian scholars from the wealthy Jiangnan faction expressed that after returning, they would cast these pigs and dogs in the court with brass and white iron, and let them kneel to the north forever.

!

Rounds of Confucian scholars, great Confucians, and masters, citing classics to prove that Zhao Huan was worse than pigs and dogs, and all the civil and military officials in the court were traitors, and they were so traitorous to the country and the people. They simply weren't their literati lineage. They refused to recognize any decisions of Zhao Huan and the civil and military officials in the court, and in the debate, they unanimously agreed to expel their Confucian scholar literati status. Many Confucian scholars tore off their sleeves on the spot, indicating that they would never associate with them again.

At the same time, all Confucian schools and Confucian scholars united under the banner of the Gongyang school and the sub-sage Mencius school, discussing Confucian classics with them, and expressed that the Confucian classics of their own schools must be wrong, and must be changed now, immediately, and immediately, otherwise it would make the saints feel ashamed, and they would not be true Confucian children.

And the Gongyang school and the Mencius school suddenly had dozens of great Confucians, dozens of masters, and ten thousand Confucian scholars. They explained their own school's claims in the hall, and the two schools had confrontation, but they also sought common ground while reserving differences, unanimously believing that barbarians who were not Han were not people, but just happened to have an appearance similar to people. Of course, if they were toward Han culture and worked hard to integrate into Han culture, those who enter Huaxia are Huaxia, and after three generations, it is not impossible to evolve into people.

And then it was that the people are heavy, must be heavy, all the gentry in the world must listen to the teachings of the saints, reduce taxes, must reduce taxes, whoever doesn't reduce, let the immortal visit his home... no, whoever doesn't reduce, then it must be reduced from the imperial court, from policy, from military power.

And then it was the court...

From morning to afternoon, Confucian scholars from all over the country, from the initial restraint, to the subconscious flattery of the royal family and the imperial court when they couldn't let go, and the effort to eliminate Su Xing's atrocities, to *slap slap slap*... to the later citing classics, loud discussions, and after Su Xing applauded, Zhao Gou sensibly gave a banquet, and announced on the spot that some Confucian scholars entered the court, how many grades of officials, what positions, these Confucian scholars all let go.

From morning to night, when the sunset went down, the Consultative Senate composed of the Gongyang school and the Mencius school, plus the people's representatives selected by Dongjing Bianliang who listened to all the debate content, plus the village elders from the surrounding areas, and the village elders who would join from all over the country in the future, plus the civil and military ministers headed by Zong Ze in the court, successfully divided almost all the power of the Song Dynasty.

Of course, it definitely wasn't called the Consultative Senate and the House of Representatives, and even the two factions of Confucianism and the representatives of the villagers hadn't given their group a name, but undoubtedly, under Su Xing's witness, the two successfully obtained part of the power that originally belonged to the powerful.

Su Xing left satisfied. He still had three days left of his ten-day vacation, and these remaining three days finally belonged to him.

On the other side, Zong Ze and other civil and military ministers had all become the likes of Qin Gui in the original time and space. They could fully anticipate what image they would become in history books, but their faces were ugly, but they were also lucky. At least they survived, at least their power was preserved.

Zong Ze looked at the bright moon outside the hall, and only then did he understand what Su Xing meant by the sound of great Confucians shaking heaven and earth. After a long time, he murmured, "Really, the sky has changed..."

On the other side, Zhao Gou and Qin Gui were also talking.

Qin Gui bowed respectfully, "The former emperor... no, Zhao Huan just couldn't see through all this, so he ended up with no whole corpse, and the emperor must not be like this."

Zhao Gou nodded immediately, and said sincerely to Qin Gui, "What Hui said is very true, the elder brother just couldn't figure out the situation. How can we mortals fight with immortals? How can we fight with heaven?"

"Those Confucian masters are right, their debate today really woke me up completely!"

Zhao Gou said viciously, "I will definitely love the people like children, must love the people like children, must severely punish the barbarians, whoever blocks..."

"Must execute their nine clans!!"

On this day, the voice of the great Confucians spread to the entire Great Song, and then continued to spread to the surroundings.

Its sound, echoing between heaven and earth!
