Chapter 66 Debate Arena
Chapter 66
Hongsheng Restaurant has been really lively recently. The great scholar Zhang Yonghe and two other respected academy presidents have held a debate competition at the venue of Hongsheng Restaurant. Participants can be students from major academies or famous scholars.
This debate competition even shouted the slogan of "distinguishing right from wrong and arguing for the justice of the world", and the slogan was shouted very loudly.
Lu Songli came out at the right time, and today's debate competition just started.
"This Fan Quan is really amazing. Is this his fifth game?"
When Lu Songli heard the name Fan Quan, she looked at the scholar-like man wearing a dark gray straight gown standing on the stage downstairs. He stood straight and looked at his opponent calmly.
In addition, she also saw her younger brother Lu Mingzhi, who stood below the stage and looked at Fan Quan on the stage quietly.
"We have already debated 'Human nature is good and human nature is evil'."
Someone began to count the topics that had been debated in the past few days.
"Which comes first, starting a family or a career?"
"Can loyalty and filial piety be achieved at the same time?"
"It is difficult to know but easy to do, but it is also easy to know but difficult to do."
"The topic to be debated this time is, 'Can we judge a hero by his success or failure?'"
"Yes, but I don't know if he can keep it."
Lv Songli listened. In just two or three days, there have been four or five debate topics, and each of them is quite in-depth and attracts attention.
"Yes, two games a day, it's not easy. The key is that he won every game, it's really amazing."
"It's really amazing. You know, he is facing knowledgeable people who are well-read."
"The debate arena in Hongsheng Restaurant is well organized. I think it's better than storytelling."
"The angle of the debate is unique and refreshing."
"Yes, you don't know, when I just listened to the first game, I was really shocked. I didn't miss any of the three games later. After listening, I really felt what it means to 'listen to your words, it's better than reading for ten years'. Many of the doubts I had before have answers."
"Yes, every time I listen to a game, it makes me suddenly enlightened."
Listening to these discussions, Lu Songli knew that no matter whether there was a shill in the praise, this debate arena was at least very lively and successful on the surface.
Lu Songli leaned on the railing and listened for a while. She felt that Fan Quan had something to say. His opponent was not as good as him, not as knowledgeable as him, and not as sharp as him. She wanted to listen for a while, but Mo Bing came to tell her that Qin Sheng had woken up.
So Lu Songli didn't listen anymore, turned around and went to the box. When she left, she had a meaningful smile on her lips.
After taking a nap for half an hour, Qin Sheng woke up, but he continued to lie down without opening his eyes.
Qin Sheng was very busy during this period. After all, he was also a cloud cavalry captain of the three thousand camps outside the city, and he had to maintain his daily training. In addition, their wedding date was very tight, and his mother was busy with people, and even postponed the matter of his eldest brother's remarriage. Naturally, he had to take time to help his mother.
In addition, he paid attention to the movements of the Xie family and the Zhao family. He could feel that Zhao Bin hated Lu Songli very deeply. He knew that Zhao Bin and the Zhao family would definitely take revenge, and there was no need to think about it. Lu Songli was the first one to bear the brunt.
At this moment, he was completely sober. He still remembered his drunken memories, and the land deed in his waistband reminded him that it was not a dream.
His fiancée gave him a land deed of 100 hectares at once. Her attitude seemed ordinary, as if she gave him a basket of eggs of ordinary value. But because he had been to the border, he knew the land price over there. Although the land in Shangyang County was not worth much, it was huge. 100 hectares could be worth at least 20,000 or 30,000 taels.
She gave such a large piece of land just as she said. Did she trust him so much?
For a moment, Qin Sheng was in a good mood, and at the same time, he secretly said in his heart that he would definitely do it.
When Lu Songli came in, he found that he was drinking tea. The two did not say anything more. There were many people, so Qin Sheng protected her downstairs to go home.
The two men were handsome and the woman was pretty. When they went downstairs, people who met them would inevitably look back and take a few more glances.
Walked through the lobby and walked towards the door.
This scene happened to be seen by Xie Zhan in the box on the second floor. He was stunned at first, and then his eyes were full of surprise. Then, he called the shopkeeper and found out that Qin Sheng and Lu Songli were treating guests at Hongsheng Restaurant today, and the guests were four rangers from Chang'an City. Xie Zhan lowered his eyes and thought, is this a coincidence? If the banquet was arranged at Hongsheng Restaurant on purpose, then they were too sharp.
"Ah Zhan..."
Xie Zhan came back to his senses and turned to look at Zhao Yutan, "Why did you come out?"
"You have been out for so long, I thought something happened, so I came out to see."
"Nothing, there are a lot of people outside, let's go in."
Qin Sheng sent Lu Songli back to the Lu family safely before leaving on horseback.
After Lu Songli returned, he gave Chen Rong some silver and told him to go out and collect the past of the scholars who had been on the debate stage at Hongsheng Restaurant in the past few days and the content of their debates. The information about Fan Quan was the top priority.
"Is my father back?" Lu Songli asked while taking off the pearl hairpin on her head.
"The master is back, and he has been back for half an hour."
"Okay, I'll go to the main courtyard later." Her father has been leaving early and returning late recently. Sometimes he goes to the market to buy things, and sometimes he goes to the palace to accompany the emperor. It's really hard.
In Lu Songli's eyes, the old man Lu, who is very hard-working, is lying on the couch, enjoying the massage of his wife.
Lv Desheng lay on the couch and took a nap under Jiang's massage. When he woke up, he felt a lot more relaxed. He had been going out early and coming back late these days. It was not too hard. Even if Zhao Bin hadn't happened, he would have to go to the palace to accompany the emperor. After all, the relationship between the emperor and him had to be maintained. Recently, he was just more diligent and attentive.
After changing into her regular clothes in her yard, Lv Songli walked briskly towards the main courtyard.
She thought she probably knew what the Xie and Zhao families had come up with. They really wanted to change the knife for Emperor Kang Cheng. When she guessed this, she even felt a sense of laughter and tears. Was her prediction so accurate? Did she predict their prediction?
However, the other party was also very powerful, and I don't know which master came up with it. To be arrogant, if she hadn't come, her father might not be able to withstand their attack. But if she hadn't come, the Lv family might not have suffered this disaster. So, this is a paradox.
Their plan was sound. To capture a thief, first capture the leader. To shoot a man, first shoot the horse. Does this metaphor seem a bit wrong? Never mind. It's not important. What's important is to knock down her father directly. The rest of the people will be crushed and twisted by them.
Now that the 'new knife' is ready and the stage is set, the other party will definitely ask Emperor Kang Cheng to leave the palace.
