However, when they arrived at a barren land outside the city, the people who followed them were stunned.
At this moment, they were shocked to see that a huge pit had already been dug. There were many servants panting and resting around it.
"This…It seems that Young Master Zijin has long thought of burning books and burying scholars.”
"It seems that Young Master had already thought of this long ago. These people will fail. How confident are you?”
"From today onwards, I'm afraid that no one will dare to laugh at Young Master anymore.”
Everyone sighed with emotion. When they looked at Zijin, their eyes were filled with shock.
As for the Confucians, they were trembling in fear. To Ruiyu and the others, the huge crater was like a ferocious beast with its mouth wide open.
He was waiting for Zijin to feed him.
The food was none other than themselves.
"Young Master, we were wrong. Please forgive us.”
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die. I'm not married yet.”
"Young Master, I was wrong. I am willing to be your slave for the rest of my life. Please forgive my lowly life.”
For a moment, these people also began to beg for mercy.
The path from the Confucian Sect Academy to the pit was a mental torture for the Confucians. Zijin had deliberately walked very slowly, letting them suffer the faint feeling of death.
From the initial anger and the mentality of facing death unflinchingly, to now kneeling and begging for mercy and crying bitterly, these Confucian scholars had completely collapsed.
Of course, not all of the Confucians were scared to tears. Some of them gritted their teeth and glared at Zijin.
However, no matter what kind of people they were, in Zijin's eyes, they were all dead people.
"Attack!"
With Zijin's order, all the books he had copied from the Confucian School were set on fire.
The fire burned fiercely.
Immediately after, the Confucian scholars were also pushed into the pit in fear.
"No!"
They struggled and roared, trying to escape from the pit. However, the sand and fear had buried them all in a moment.
The people in Xianyang City saw this scene and shivered.
Although the Confucians had been buried, their screams still echoed in their ears.
The miserable scene from before was like a mark that was imprinted in their minds.
After today's incident, many people would probably be haunted by nightmares.
Zi Jin looked around, but his heart was cold.
Was he cruel?
Zijin did not think so.
Ordinary people knew that when others insulted them or even used all kinds of harsh words to slander them, they would retaliate.
Furthermore, he was a prince.
Of course, this time, Zijin was also putting on a show for the entire Xianyang City.
If he really thought that he was a mountain villager, he would be easy to bully.
Then these Confucians were a good example!
After doing all of this, Zi Jin returned to his residence in satisfaction, leaving behind the people of Xianyang who were shocked on the spot.
At the same time, Zijin activated his system reward.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining spiritual power upgrade and soul searching skill.
……
Zijin did go back, but this matter did not completely stop because of his departure.
The burning of books and burying of Confucian scholars was like a gust of wind that constantly swept through Xianyang City. It even had the tendency to spread outside Xianyang City.
Chunyu Yue's body was trembling with anger.
He drew his sword and waved it around the room like he had gone crazy.
As for the feeling of weakness caused by vomiting blood and fainting, it had completely disappeared.
"Damned bastard, he…how dare he do this!”
"Burning books and burying scholars, burning books and burying scholars, he…he wants our scholarly faction to break its foundation!”
"You…are so cruel!"
Chunyu Yue shouted angrily.
However, after going crazy for a moment, Chunyu Yue sat on the ground weakly as if he had lost his parents.
In fact, he knew that when Zijin had first proposed to debate with the Confucian School, he had first proposed burning books and burying scholars.
However, on one hand, he didn't think that Zijin would really succeed. On the other hand, after what happened in the imperial court, Chunyu Yue was a little afraid of Zijin.
Even when he learned of the Confucian Sect's defeat, Chunyu Yue only raged in his room and did nothing to stop it.
He had thought that if Fu Su could stop them, he might be able to let those Confucians live. However, he found out that Fu Su was actually having a meal with the First Emperor in the palace.
This…
Chunyu Yue was stunned.
"Could it be that the First Emperor is behind this?”
Just as he was thinking about this, a series of shouts came from the entrance of Chunyu Yue's mansion.
He walked out to take a look and found that most of the Confucian scholars in Xianyang City had actually come to the entrance of his mansion.
"I hope doctor can give us justice!"
"That Young Master Zijin is too cruel and too much.”
