When did this girl become so brave and eloquent?
Gan Mei was also surprised.
She was originally a poor girl, and her status was like heaven and earth compared to Yuan Yao. Normally, she would not dare to talk to someone of Yuan Yao's status. However, now that she was standing in front of Liu Yang, she felt that even if the sky fell, Liu Yang would support her. This sense of security and trust made her fearless!
Yuan Yao looked at Gan Mei's appearance. She was extremely exquisite and beautiful. Her skin was as white as snow, and her beauty was comparable to Diao Chan's.
Putting aside her heroic bearing, Gan Mei was even better than Lu Lingqi in terms of looks.
He was even more jealous of Liu Yang. Liu Yang had a wife like Lu Lingqi, but he still had such a beautiful woman to stand up for him!
Yuan Yao's face turned red from Gan Mei's words. He flew into a rage out of humiliation and gritted his teeth as he said,"What Nine Stars Alignment is just hearsay!
As for killing two birds with one stone, perhaps those two condors were also birds that were frightened by the twang of a bow. He was lucky enough to let those two big condors fall!
He was just a country bumpkin, a poor boy who had never seen the world. How could he have such brilliant archery skills!
He wasn't good enough for Lingqi in every way!”
The story of the birds startled by the twang of a bow came from the policy of the Warring States Period, which had already been published in the Western Han Dynasty. Therefore, Yuan Yao twisted the truth and said that the two big eagles were birds startled by the twang of a bow, taking the opportunity to belittle Liu Yang's archery skills.
Originally, Liu Yang couldn't be bothered with a profligate young master like Yuan Yao. However, Yuan Yao had humiliated him again and again, and Liu Yang couldn't take it anymore.
Liu Yang looked at Yuan Yao with disdain,""Yuan Yao, you always say that I'm a country bumpkin, a child of a poor family. You think that you're from a noble family, but you still remember your ancestor, Yuan An!
When Yuan An was not an official, he was also poor. He curled up in bed and shivered in the snow, just like me in the past!
When Yuan Yao's ancestor, Yuan An, was not an official, he lived in Luoyang and was very famous. One winter, the magistrate of Luoyang braved the snow to visit him. The snow in his courtyard was very deep. The Luoyang order asked his attendants to sweep a path before entering Yuan An's house. Yuan An was curled up on the bed, shivering from the cold. "Why didn't you ask your relatives for help?”"Everyone's not having a good time. How can I disturb them on a snowy day?" Yuan An said.”In an instant, the story of Yuan An lying in the snow spread.
Of course, in Liu Yang's eyes, Yuan An was just a pretentious person. However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, people were keen on fishing for fame. In a short time, this person surnamed Yuan rose to fame and then prospered. He was a minister in the Han Dynasty. His son Yuan Chang was appointed Sikong, his grandson Yuan Tang was appointed Taiwei, and his great-grandchildren Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui were appointed Sikong and Taifu respectively. The "Yuan Family of Runan" held the position of three dukes for four generations, so they were called the "Four Generations of Three Dukes", which was as famous as the "Hongnong Yang Family".
However, looking at the actions of the Yuan family in history, killing them all would not have any impact on history. They were all people who knew how to be officials but did not know how to do proper things!
Yuan Yao was flabbergasted at that time. He did not expect Liu Yang's eloquence to be so aggressive, leaving him speechless.
Liu Yang continued to scold him angrily," You, Yuan Yao, can only shoot an arrow from 50 steps away. You're just a lowly person. You're just a little bit of smoke from the ancestral graves of these ancestors. How dare you speak nonsense here and look down on the children of the poor!
Cao Sikong (Cao Cao is not the Prime Minister yet) was born in a family far inferior to your Runan Yuan Family. Compared to you, he was considered a descendant of the Humble Class. However, he still managed to kill your father and forced him to flee in panic. He lost Nanyang County and fled to Huainan in a panic. From then on, he did not dare to fight with Cao Sikong and only bullied Liu Xuande, who used to sell shoes!”
Liu Yang had exposed the ugliest failure of Yuan Yao's father, Yuan Shu!
Even if you are the descendant of the four generations of the Three Dukes, so what? You are just a loser!
Yuan Yao's face was livid with rage as he glared at Liu Yang.
If he wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to beat her, he really wanted to pounce on her!
Liu Yang looked at the disciples of the aristocratic families around Yuan Yao with contempt,""Mencius once said that the grace of a gentleman should be cut off after five generations (A noble and capable gentleman who has worked hard to achieve his career and left his blessings to his descendants will be exhausted after a few generations). The grace of a villain should be cut off after five generations. The aristocratic families of the various countries during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are still alive. The aristocratic families of the founding dynasty of the former dynasty (Western Han Dynasty) are still alive. Even if your ancestors have contributed greatly to the court and the country, they will be exhausted after five generations when they meet unworthy people like you!
The river flows thirty times east, and the river flows thirty times west. Today, you despise my Humble Class. How would you know that in a few years, some people's fathers will be defeated and will also be reduced to Humble Class? No, they will be even worse than Humble Class. They will vomit blood and die without a burial place!
When that day comes, remember what I said today!”
All the guests present were flabbergasted and extremely shocked!
Just now, all of them looked down on Liu Yang because of their family background. However, Liu Yang used Mencius's words," A gentleman's grace shall last for five generations, but a villain's grace shall last for five generations." Their pride was shattered!
They were now shocked and stunned. They had never expected that a peasant from a poor family would be able to quote classics and beat them until they were helpless!
Especially Yuan Yao, who was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. The Yuan family of Runan had four generations of three dukes, and Liu Yang's statement of " the grace of a gentleman should be cut off after five generations, and the grace of a villain should be cut off after five generations " was clearly aimed at the Yuan family of Runan. However, Yuan Yao could not argue because the original words were said by the quasi-sage Mencius. The people of the Eastern Han Dynasty respected the Scholarly Sage very much. Who would dare to say that Mencius was spouting nonsense?
