At the beginning, Zhang Shi did not intend to intervene in the debate between the students.

He felt that students could debate freely, because truth was not afraid of debate.

Those students who uphold the old ideas will eventually find themselves wrong and will eventually realize that the changeable Confucianism cannot guide them into Datong society, and they will eventually fall into the arms of truth.

However, he underestimated the stubbornness of some stubborn men's brains affected by their butts, so he did not stand up before the split between the All Martial Arts and the Academy, which eventually triggered the fight and the split between the academy students.

After the fight, the students in the academy were divided into two distinct factions, namely pro-Ming faction and anti-Ming faction. They disliked each other and had many quarrels and small-scale fights.

If Zhang Shi had not intervened in time and strictly prohibited the fight, many large-scale physical exchanges would have occurred in the academy afterwards.

In fact, at this stage, the students who can accept "Hongwu Political Commentary" have basically stood on the side of the pro-Ming faction, and the rest are all stubborn and stubborn tough guys who cannot be educated.

They were very clear about the hypocrisy and dirty Confucianism in their hearts, and knew that they could not achieve any Datong society at all, but they enjoyed the privileges they now and their current status, so they could not accept the struggle concept of the Ming Dynasty, and could not revolutionize their lives first.

The situation of the struggle has changed.

Zhang Shi did not realize this problem at the beginning.

It was not until the government came that Zhang Shi realized the seriousness of the matter.

The parents of several stubborn students had some official relationships and were very dissatisfied with their son being beaten many times. So they discussed it and exposed the matter to the government. They also added fuel to the fire and said something about Ming Guo’s detailed work in the academy, which attracted the attention of the government.

The government entered the academy to investigate and took away several students who were members of the Revival to interrogate them.

This incident greatly touched Zhang Xiao. Zhang Xiao immediately mobilized his connections and begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother, and finally took out several students. Although they had been beaten up, they did not reveal any news to the government officials.

Zhang Shi's friend in the government told Zhang Shi that although this matter can be revealed for the time being, the government has begun to care about the academy.

They don’t want to see such things again, nor do they want to see people who are looking forward to Mingguo appear. They must handle this matter well.

Whether it is teaching, scolding, or expelling students, in short, there are no fans of Ming Kingdom in the academy.

Otherwise, it won't be so easy to pass the next time.

At the internal meeting of the Jinghu South Road Revival Association branch, Zhang Feng reviewed this matter, saying that he underestimated the stubbornness of the stubborn elements and misjudged the situation, believing that debate and influence could bring about a sustainable and benign transformation.

But even young people have completely different ideas. For the sake of their interests, some people can do everything.

The conflict between the two sides has obviously been made public and the sidelines have been completed, and there is no possibility of reconciliation.

Now the government has even intervened, which obviously means a change in the struggle situation.

Su Changsheng's subsequent speech was very representative and deeply touched the hearts of the young members in the Jinghu South Road Revival Association branch.

Gu Ming

"If everything can be resolved by debate, will there be wars in the world? Did the Ming Dynasty need to violently overthrow the Jin regime in the form of war and establish a new country? We directly debated with the Jin emperor and told him that he was evil and we were just, so he abdicated directly.

But is there such a good thing in the world? It is impossible. Comrade Chairman has said many times that revolution is not a friendly treat to dinner, or a good negotiation between Datong society, but it is not a good deal for everyone. It can only be achieved through bloody struggle.

The old vested interests would never give up their vested interests easily. Cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents. This sentence fully reflects how people value interests. People like you are the minority after all, and will not occupy the majority of the entire Southern Song Dynasty scholars.

Therefore, we must recognize a reality. Debate and preaching cannot really change the situation. What can really change the situation and be determined is always a struggle, a bloody struggle, a resolute and decisive bloody struggle!”

This meeting gave Zhang Feng a very profound lesson, which made Zhang Feng understand a lot of things. Just when he was about to continue doing something, his friend from the government suddenly passed him a message.

The families of those beaten students continued to make trouble and put pressure on the government, wanting to make things bigger and let the students in the academy who supported Hongwu political comments get out of the academy. The government felt very embarrassed about this and wanted to hear Zhang Feng's opinion.

Zhang Xiao immediately realized that things were not simple, so he quickly contacted friends. Only then did he learn that some guys were very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiao's behavior of suppressing the matter and led the matter to Lin'an. Zhang Jun's political enemy planned to use this matter as a weapon to attack Zhang Jun.

As a continuation of the political struggle in Lin'an, Zhang Shi and the students of Yuelu Academy are likely to become victims of this political struggle.

Zhang Feng was surprised and informed the Jinghu branch of this matter. After the Jinghu branch held an emergency meeting to discuss, he reached an unanimous opinion.

They don’t care about political struggles, but Zhang Shi and the comrades in the academy must protect them.

The branch of the Jinghu Revival Association suggested that Zhang Bai personally criticize the "Hongwu Political Commentary", criticize the students who are members as fools, punish them severely, and expel several leaders to make a statement.

Then Zhang Shi can use his reputation to hold a critical meeting to make things bigger, turn the offensive, and become a defender of feudal theory, so as to improve his reputation, consolidate his status, and thus better protect the comrades in the academy.

After some painstaking management, Zhang Bai successfully packaged Yuelu Academy and Chengnan Academy as ideological positions of the Southern Song Dynasty, protecting the students who were members of the Revival, and causing the official suspicion of the Southern Song Dynasty towards Yuelu Academy and Chengnan Academy to disappear.

This crisis has been resolved.

But just before and after this crisis, Zhang Jun was killed.

Even without Zhang Feng and Yuelu Academy as weapons, the failure of the battle to attack Jiangnan West Road made Zhang Jun unable to survive this round of political offensive. As a loser in the political struggle, Zhang Jun was unable to even get the treatment of exile.

When facing his father's death, the two brothers Zhang Feng and Zhang Piao were confused at first, then cried bitterly, and then gritted their teeth and hated the Lin'an court, hated the treacherous and slanderous people, and then developed a strong hatred for Zhao Xing.

According to the news sent to them by Su Changsheng, who was mainly engaged in Lin'an, they learned that Zhang Jun did not need to die. Although he was guilty, he would never be sentenced to death. The reason for his death was caused by fierce political struggles within the court.

The peace faction wanted to replace the war faction to gain power, so he tried his best to impeach Zhang Jun. Originally, Zhang Jun just needed to be sentenced to exile, but was tortured into death.

Even Zhang Feng, Zhang Piao and others were sentenced to a joint sanctions and were exiled to Leizhou together, but they were pardoned but refused to return it. It was just because some officials couldn't stand this matter and strongly opposed it. Zhao Xing changed the disposal and punished only Zhang Jun, which would not harm his family.

Despite this, Zhang Shi's attitude towards the Southern Song Dynasty took a sharp turn for the worse.
