Chapter 82: Black Jade Fragments

Wang Miansheng talked with Du Mingzhang in the dean's study for a while, mostly the latter was asking, the former was answering, and when he was finished, Wang Miansheng got up and saluted and left.

Wang Miansheng, who was still carrying his luggage, walked to the dormitory, passing by the classroom of the first class, only to see that Liu Fuzi's class was being taken inside, Wang Miansheng was in both civil and military double cultivation, both aspects are excellent, naturally he has not been punished by Liu Qingting, but for her teaching methods, there are also some lingering palpitations, although excellent students will never be afraid of how strict the teacher.

At the back of the class, there are three students at the moment, tied to the horse, Wang Miansheng looked at it and smiled, it seems that every student in the school year, there will be a few students who clash with Liu Qingting, and she will be punished by her for squatting and copying texts or something throughout the semester.

Wang Miansheng returned to the dormitory, took his bag off his shoulder, and began to tidy up things, suddenly Wang Miansheng put down the tidying action at hand, and took out a black fragment from his arms, which looked like jade, but it was broken, and this piece of black jade should be one of the complete pieces of jade.

"It looks like it's one of the pieces of a round jade that has been shattered. Wang Miansheng touched the black jade fragment in his hand, flipped it back and forth and looked at it in detail, and then muttered to himself.

A gentleman loves jade, just like a woman likes to wear jewelry, I don't know whether it is natural or natural, it seems to have become a matter of course.

The founder of the Ren family is called the Holy Master, and a student named Zigong once asked: "Why is the gentleman valuing jade and despising the beautiful stone like jade? Is it because there is less jade and more stones?"

The Holy Master replied, "It is because in the past the gentleman compared virtue with jade, and the warmth and luster of jade is benevolence; The dense and solid jade and the orderly pattern are wisdom; The horns of jade are square and do not hurt others, which is righteousness; The heaviness of jade is a ceremony. The percussion of the jade, the clearer and longer the sound, and finally abruptly stopped, it is music; The flaws of the jade can't cover the good part, and the good part can't hide the flaws, that is, loyalty; The color of jade overflows, which is faith; The temperament of jade is like a white rainbow, which is the sky; The spirit of jade is embodied in the mountains and rivers, that is, the earth; The jade guizhang is used for ceremonies, which is virtue; There is no one in the world who does not value jade, that is, the Tao. ”

Zigong nodded, convinced.

In fact, there are some words, or another meaning, that the Holy Master did not say, that is, people are born with faith, what kind of person those beliefs make you become, and then work hard and persevere for it.

Just like the swordsmen in the rivers and lakes, they have a sword in their hands, they can break through the rivers and lakes, but they can wander the world, the sword is their faith, because of this belief, they can restrain themselves, persist and work hard, to become the ultimate goal in their hearts, to become famous in the rivers and lakes or to become a generation of legends in the rivers and lakes.

Later, Xu Shen, a scholar in Dongtu, said that "jade has five virtues", which is benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, courage and purity.

In this way, the belief and symbol of jade are fixed, which is both a constraint and a guide, so that the reader can become what kind of person and the person who wears jade become.

Therefore, it has become a reason for a gentleman to love jade.

Not a big truth, but a lot of sense.

Black jade has always been precious and rare, like the imperial black jade, Hetian black jade, black jasper are rare in the world, and this black jade fragment in Wang Miansheng's hand is that he passed through an ancient town, passed by an antique shop, suddenly felt and stopped, went into the shop to take a look, and then found this piece of black jade fragment that he liked from the bottom of his heart.

The shopkeeper is not actually clumsy, but has no eye for antique things at all, the shop who was born in the ancient town is looking for an antique shop where it must be very real, so he took a few old things and the things in the broken temple on the mountain, and opened an antique shop in the store.

After Wang Miansheng entered the shop by mistake, he saw the black jade fragment in his hand at a glance, and then after some bargaining, the final price made the shopkeeper and Wang Miansheng both embarrassed on the surface, and they were very reluctant, but in fact, both of them laughed in their hearts.

It doesn't matter how much you earn, in fact, both of you earn.

The shop is just a small piece of random pick-up on the road, thinking it is an ordinary thing, but it looks so deceiving, so it is sold in the shop, and the result is sold, and it is the same reason and the same result as the silver picked up on the road.

Wang Miansheng saw the value of the black jade fragment, and he also liked jade, so he bought the black jade fragment with a lot of silver, but the money to buy a piece of jade with the best material was okay, and it was far from enough to buy black jade.

The black jade fragment in Wang Miansheng's hand looked at it, the original completeness should be the size of an adult's palm, but now it is broken, only the length of a middle finger, Wang Miansheng does not want to wear it, he doesn't like this, the two practices of wearing jade on his body and going out must hold a folding fan, he feels that it is too ostentatious and exaggerated, he only needs to put this black jade fragment in a place where he can usually see it, and he will be happy when he sees it, that is enough.

But the dormitory is not his own home after all, Wang Miansheng thought about bringing this piece of black jade back next time he went back, and then asked someone to get something special to place the black jade fragment and put it in his study, which was very beautiful.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and then there was a pleasant voice, and when I heard the voice, I knew that it was a beautiful and gentle woman, and the woman outside the door said, "Mian Sheng, are you there?"

Wang Miansheng looked in the direction of the door when he heard the words, and when he heard the voice, he knew that it was the county lord Lin Yuanmei, so he replied: "Yes." ”

Wang Miansheng put away the black jade fragment in his hand, and then went to open the door, as soon as the door opened, what greeted Wang Miansheng was a dignified and beautiful woman with a gentle smile, this woman named Lin Yuanmei was the county lord of Anzhou, in fact, she was not short among women, standing in front of Wang Miansheng, who was about the same height as Kong Qiu, she looked short.

"Mian Sheng, I heard that others said that you were coming back, so I came to see you. Lin Yuanmei smiled softly, and then said.

"Hmm. Wang Mian was at the door, but he just hummed, and then said nothing like a big log.

Lin Yuanmei saw that Wang Miansheng was so puzzled, his eyebrows furrowed, and his face was full of resentment.

Wang Miansheng naturally knew that Lin Yuanmei was interesting to him, but his mind was not on this, he cultivated both civil and military, had his own talent, but he also had troubles, and he also blamed Wang Miansheng for being greedy, and then fell into a dilemma, whether to wear battle armor, overcome obstacles on the battlefield, and become the enemy of ten thousand enemies that shocked one side, or like his father, share worries for the monarch, worry about the society, and relieve the worries of the common people.

In fact, Wang Miansheng still prefers the latter, because his good brother Zheng Yuqing will inevitably become the new emperor of the Dazhu Dynasty under the general trend. Because there is Mengchuan who is in the prime of life, he can at least guard the border of Dazhu for thirty or forty years, and there is Mengchuan on the border who is not afraid of foreign enemies, this is what Emperor Zheng said back then.

"Yuanmei, why don't we go out for a walk?" Wang Miansheng asked tentatively.

"It's up to you. Lin Yuanmei turned resentment into laughter.

The two walked out of the dormitory side by side and walked towards the courtyard of the college.

————

In a classroom for a school year.

It is no accident that in Liu Qingting's class today, the trio appeared at the back of the class again, squatting there, Wen Song was taken care of, just standing, Su Qing and Ma Lian could only squat and walk without any care.

Su Qing also explained that it was because they would be late until they waited for Ma Lian, so it was reasonable that he and Wen Song should not be punished, but Liu Qingting said that he was heinous, saying that Su Qing himself didn't have any problems?

Seeing Su Qing's unconvinced face, Liu Qingting didn't want to let go of Su Qing, he wanted to talk to the latter about the reason, talk about the trend of the righteousness of heaven and earth, in desperation, Su Qing could only bow his head, who can compare to the change of face, Su Qing instantly looked well-behaved, his tone was serious, his attitude was sincere, and he admitted his mistake to Liu Qingting, but he scolded her in his heart.

Liu Qingting let Su Qing go, left the back of the subject, and returned to the front to continue the lecture, Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief, but because of this, Su Qing could feel the reality of the world, the person in front of him was real, he himself was real, and all the false illusions and fears in his heart were disintegrated in the sunlight shining in from the window.

Su Qing looked out the window and smiled slightly.

"Su Qing! I didn't listen to the class, and I looked out the window again, was there any beautiful girl outside the window? Liu Qingting's voice came from the front of the classroom to the back.

The classroom burst into laughter.

Liu Qingting just wanted to go to Su Qing, and then teach this student who doesn't learn and don't have skills, even if he is late every day, he doesn't listen carefully in class, he is simply a teacher, but it is a coincidence, at this time, the bell for the end of class rang, Liu Qingting asked everyone to get out of class, and let Wen Song and Ma Lian also return to their seats, but Su Qing continued to squat, anyway, she found that Su Qing was very good at squatting, and she didn't see a little shaking after squatting for a class, so she continued to squat.

Su Qing watched Liu Qingting leave the classroom with an unkind face, and as soon as the latter left, Su Qing was like being unlocked and arrogantly active in the classroom, but several of these first-year students were from traditional scholars' homes, and the idea that scholars should keep to themselves and behave in a decent manner was deeply ingrained in their hearts, so when they saw Su Qing like this, they were full of disgust and disdain in their hearts.

But although Young Master Su knew their hostility, he still went his own way, followed his own path, and didn't care what others thought.

Along the way, Su Qing, who originally studied books and read books and imitated Kong Qiu, because he saw the demeanor of people in the rivers and lakes, befriended the prince of Dazhu, and saw the unparalleled strength of the great monk's hand, and began to become the most true self.

So arrogant, so frivolous, so naughty, so restless.
