Chapter 528: Sorry, Today I Am Here to Confront You Head-On

"Is he crazy?"

Upon hearing this news, Xie Ling jumped up.

He could not even control himself and began to laugh wildly.

The other wealthy men also looked at each other and laughed.

It's settled!

This time, it's settled!

Their thinking was the same as that group of scholars. If those men of letters gathered in Liangzhou Prefecture this time and Prefect Liu hid inside his office and simply refused to come out, in reality, this matter would at most have some impact on Prefect Liu's reputation, and in the end, it would just fizzle out.

But now.

Prefect Liu could not hold back!

He could not help but jump out!

"Hahahaha, let's go, let's go, let's go watch the show together!"

Xie Ling was getting excited.

He believed that this time, he could be considered to have turned defeat into victory!

He is finished!

He felt that Liu Zheng was truly finished this time! What does he want to do? Does he want to set himself against all the scholars in the world? Thinking about such a thing with one's backside, is it possible? Could he possibly succeed?

"Your Highness, go watch the show!"

"Right, we will continue to stay here and get to work!"

"Smash the Yinzhou Coin down completely!"

"Good!"

……

Over ten thousand scholars from all over Longyan, in a mighty force, set off toward the Liangzhou Poetry Society.

Arriving at the Liangzhou Poetry Society once again.

Liu Zheng's mood was actually somewhat subtle.

He still remembered that when he had just transmigrated here, his first stop was this Liangzhou Poetry Society. At that time, Chen Ping was still the Prefect, and he had snuck in with his old man; in order to please Chen Ping, he had slaughtered everyone here.

In the blink of an eye, more than two years had passed.

The Liangzhou Poetry Society was very large after being expanded.

Liu Zheng, pushing Qingyang Shuo's wheelchair, had already appeared here. He chuckled: "A tiny poetry society occupies such a large space in Liangzhou Prefecture; I always feel it is a bit of a waste."

To be honest, Liu Zheng did not like the atmosphere of obsession with poetry and lyrics throughout the entire Longyan Dynasty.

Qingyang Shuo laughed: "Does the Young Master intend to turn this place into an Academy?"

Liu Zheng nodded.

Talking with a soulmate was always that relaxed and simple.

That's right!

This was also an idea that had suddenly popped into his head. An Academy! Why are the Four Great Academies so impressive in the Longyan Dynasty? They can summon the scholars of the world to come and cause trouble at the gates of Liangzhou Prefecture?

Because they control the public opinion circle, control the academic circle, control the ideology of the intellectuals, and even control the ideology of the entire society.

To truly crush their monopoly on ideology.

He could only build an Academy of his own in Liangzhou!

Currently, the Public School in Liangzhou could not yet be called an Academy; its scale was still relatively small. So, why not take this opportunity to build the reputation of Liangzhou Academy? To make Heart Learning the founding doctrine of Liangzhou Academy?

Moreover.

He would certainly need to develop exchanges of talent with Wangbei Academy in the future.

He also needed an Academy to serve as a carrier; Liangzhou Academy and Wangbei Academy would complement each other.

Not only that!

He had another idea in his heart.

That was, on the foundation of Liangzhou Academy, he also wanted to establish a Military Academy!

Liangzhou Military Academy!

This was very necessary!

Although Wangbei Academy itself had subjects on military affairs and military law, for Liu Zheng, who came from later generations, it was completely insufficient. He needed a real Military Academy, one where the atmosphere from beginning to end, from inside to out, was entirely that of a Military Academy!

Throughout history.

How many military talents were cultivated for the Huaxia nation by things like the Small Battle training or the Lecture Hall?

And now, the entire Longyan Dynasty did not have a single true Military Academy, or rather, an institution similar to a Military Academy. He felt this was a shortcoming of the Longyan Dynasty.

He could even imagine it.

Once Liangzhou Military Academy was established.

Liangzhou would certainly see a fountain of talent in the field of military affairs.

A poetry society?

What use is that?

The concepts of an Academy and a Military Academy had already formed in Liu Zheng's mind.

Of course.

Whether Liangzhou Academy could gain the recognition of the world still depended on the battle to come.

……

"Hmm, although this Liangzhou is obsessed with militarism, it still looks up to the poetic atmosphere of my Longyan after all!"

When the Deans of the Four Great Academies walked into this poetry society, they still could not help but offer praise.

The place is huge!

The decor is exceptionally elegant!

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Liangzhou Poetry Society can fully accommodate these hundred thousand-plus scholars.

It seems normal that this Prefect Liu is overflowing with talent and that his poetry shocks the world.

But soon, someone nearby snorted coldly: "Sir, you only know one side of it, not the other. Not to mention this Prefect Liu, that Liangzhou Prefecture Governor Liu Dahao is completely and utterly a boor! In my opinion, this is entirely just an affectation of refinement!"

"Hahaha! That's right!"

"How could this barren land of Liangzhou understand the elegance of Zhongyuan?"

"Boors, a bunch of boors!"

"But looking at it today, Prefect Liu intends to apologize to us!"

"What else?"

"Hmm, this standard is barely acceptable..."

These scholars, one by one, shook their heads and swayed, holding folding fans and wearing square caps.

Scholars naturally take pride in elegance and romanticism. But in reality, when many people present saw the fruits, pastries, and fine wine prepared for them by the Liangzhou Poetry Society, although they remained stubborn in their speech, they still couldn't help but secretly swallow their saliva.

No!

They are just a bunch of rich boors!

And so...

A group of people pretended to be sanctimonious on the surface, but when they sat down, they were already secretly stuffing the exquisite pastries into their pockets. This thieving appearance looked exactly like the literati of the current Longyan Dynasty... pretentious!

Some Liangzhou staff members responsible for receiving them saw it as if they had seen nothing.

This is called a high standard?

This is just Liangzhou's most basic etiquette for receiving guests, alright...

"Oh my, what is the meaning of this?"

"Hahahaha, what is the meaning of that podium?"

"Does this Prefect Liu want to debate us, or does he want to lecture us?"

"Absurd!"

"Arrogant and conceited!"

A group of people walked in, and just after sitting down, they discovered something wrong with the seating. The seats for the Four Great Academy Principals were the furthest forward. But they were not in the center position!

The center position was a podium, which so many people could see at a single glance!

The podium was currently empty.

This caused many people's expressions to change.

This Prefect Liu has such a high opinion of himself!

Does he intend to stand there?

He is actually so arrogant even toward the Four Great Academy Principals!

They had originally thought that by coming here, with Liangzhou Prefecture having prepared so much good food and drink, Prefect Liu intended to bow his head and apologize to them.

However, they did not expect it.

The man had no intention of apologizing at all!

The man was here to go head-to-head with them!

The whole venue was in an uproar.

The whole venue was furious.

The Four Great Academy Principals also had gloomy expressions, one by one.

A fine Prefect Liu!

What on earth does he want to do?

Soon.

The noise became deathly silent as Liu Zheng and his party slowly walked toward the podium in the middle, which was large enough to hold a dozen people.

The eyes of over a hundred thousand people.

Simultaneously looked at Liu Zheng.

Prefect Liu!

This is the world-renowned Prefect Liu!
