Chapter 29 Section Eleven

Sang Chongguo didn't know that the emperor called Zhang Shangying a "selling friend" when he met Zhang Shangying, but he was also being accused of the same at this time.After his cousin Tang Di found him at Baishuitan College, he dragged him into the house, and as soon as the door was locked, he cursed him for being lacking in loyalty. "Changqing, have you forgotten our ambitions back then? Didn't we agree to help Shi Yue and realize the ideal world he described together? What are you doing for? To be famous? When you were in prison, we were far away. Don't you know how Shi Yue protected you in front of the emperor in the field? How could you add insult to injury?!"

Sang Chongguo's heart ached with Tang Di's accusations. He looked directly at Tang Di, bit his lips stubbornly, and said loudly, "I haven't changed my mind! I did this to realize the ideal world Shi Yue described!" "Really? In order to realize our ideal, you used the focus page to report an unsubstantiated scandal in Shi Yue's most difficult time, so as to damage his reputation?" Tang Di sneered. "The idea of ​​a newspaper should be impartiality and neutrality. This is also what Shi Yue advocates." "What is fairness and neutrality? There is no evidence to speak ill of others, so it is fairness and neutrality? I don't understand."

For the first time, Sang Chongguo discovered that his thoughts and Tang Di's thoughts were too far apart. These thoughts that were easy to understand in Baishuitan became unexplainable to Tang Di.He said as calmly as possible: "Cousin, have you read "Three Generations" and the recent "Bai Shui Tan Academic Journal"? A fair and neutral newspaper is often mentioned by Shi Yue. We do this to respect our ideal." "Really?" Tang Di sneered, "Changqing, you are the only one who has studied. The head of Baishuitan College, the famous Mr. Sang. Your reputation can indeed be compared with that of Shi Yue back then. I don't understand you I have read those great treatises, "The Rule of Three Generations", but I didn't read your sentence. I only know that Shi Yue can lead us to realize a great ideal, and what we have to do is to help him."

"Just to help him? To be Shi Yue's slave?" Sang Chongguo was slightly angry, and sneered, "Cousin, do you understand that what we want to realize is the ideal mentioned by Shi Yue, and what we want to respect is that Ideals and related ideas, not Ishikoshi himself." "Is there any difference?" Tang Di said coldly.After a while, he seemed to suddenly realize, pointed at Sang Chongguo, and sneered sharply: "I understand, I understand. I thought that to realize that ideal, I must follow Shi Yue and help Shi Yue. But you think that others can also lead We live that ideal. So you wanted to be that person, didn't you?"

"You think of me like that? Cousin, do you think I'm that kind of person?" Sang Chongguo was shaking with excitement. "I thought you were not such a person, but I discovered that people can change!" Tang Di sneered a few times, opened the door and walked away. A few rays of sunlight shone into the room, Sang Chongguo bit his lips tightly, and a few streaks of blood flowed down the corners of his mouth. "Brother." Sang Zi'er knocked on the door of Sang Chongguo's study. Sang Chongguo hadn't had time to go home for a long time, and his face was very pale.

"Zi'er, what's the matter?" "Cousin Yifu has returned to Beijing. He just came home and met Daddy and Brother Shi." Sang Zi'er brought a bowl of ginseng soup and gently placed it in front of Sang Chongguo, hesitating to speak. Sang Chongguo immediately understood what she wanted to say. He looked at his sister lovingly and said, "Sister, you are blaming me too, aren't you?" Sang Zi'er lowered her head and said in a low voice: "I don't know who is right and who is wrong, I just want everyone to be together safely and be happy."

Sang Chongguo touched Zi'er's beautiful hair lightly, and sighed: "Sister, I know you must be in trouble. But I also have my own difficulties." "I know. Daddy and Cousin Yifu were very angry just now. Daddy said that he would stop running free schools for you and not let the printing press print your newspaper. Brother Shi dissuaded him. Brother Shi said that brother did nothing wrong. Brother Shi He also said that brother has a strong character, he said that he will go to Baishuitan to give a speech in person, so that the students can understand your difficulties." Sang Zier pursed her lips and said with a bit of pride.

"Really? Shi Yue, he really doesn't mind?" Sang Chongguo said in astonishment, he had never dared to face Shi Yue. Sang Zi'er looked up at Sang Chongguo, and Sang Chongguo quickly turned his head away, he didn't want his sister to see the tears in his eyes. Sang Zier said softly: "Brother Shi may not mind, I can feel that he is a little bit reluctant, but he also knows that his brother is doing the right thing, so although he is not happy, he still helps him to speak. Brother Shi , don’t blame Big Brother Shi, okay? For his part, it would be quite difficult if he didn’t care at all.”

When Sang Chongguo heard Zi'er's words, he actually had a deep affection for Shi Yue, and he couldn't help being surprised. "Sister, I won't blame him. It's fine if he doesn't blame me. How could I blame him?" Sang Chongguo replied gently. "Sister, do you like Shi Yue?" After hesitating for a while, Sang Chongguo finally asked. Sang Zi'er never thought that Sang Chong would ask this question, she was stunned for a moment, and her face immediately turned red to the base of her neck.She stood up, lowered her head and said, "Brother, I'll go out to accompany my mother for a while, and you can come over and say hello to my mother later." After speaking, she ran out without waiting for Sang Chongguo's answer.
