Chapter 134: I want to be a saint
Wang Hua looked like he was going to beat people: "Fang Cai's 'things cannot be known, and the sage's truth is suspicious', did you say this rebel?!" β
Yan Chengjin was afraid that he wouldn't be able to beat Wang Shouren, but he didn't expect his father to come!
"The lower officials can testify, it was Brother Bo'an who said it." There was a bad breath in my heart, and I suddenly felt very comfortable.
Wang Shouren's face was black.
Wang Hua jumped to his feet angrily: "Son! How dare you question the teachings of the saints! On your knees! β
Wang Shouren had no choice but to kneel on the ground obediently.
Wang Hua is a prodigy, since he was a child, he studied Zhu Cheng Lixue, studied the book of sages, and took the principles of saints as the foundation of his life, so to speak, he was a representative of Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty and was deeply supported by the gentry.
It is said that when Wang Hua was not yet the champion, a wealthy gentleman asked him to be a private school teacher in the name of asking his concubine to sleep with Wang Hua, borrowing seeds to improve his family genes, which shows how popular he is.
How can a person who follows the teachings of the saints make his son question the teachings of the saints?
Coincidentally, Wang Shouren is also a prodigy when he is a child, but his purpose of learning the knowledge of a saint is completely different from Wang Hua, and he is as rebellious as Zhu Houzhao when he is a child.
It is really against heaven to question the teachings of the saints!
Yan Chengjin knew that without saying anything himself, Wang Hua would also beat Wang Shouren severely.
Wang Hua scolded: "What are you learning to read for!" β
"Be a saint, establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!" Wang Shouren said in a deep voice.
Wang Hua sneered: "Just by you, you also want to be a sage?" β
There is nothing more shocking in the world than his father's ridicule, even Yan Chengjin listened to it on the side, and he felt that his heart was cold.
Wang Shouren was furious when he heard this: "Why can't my son be a saint?" Confucius is a man, his son is also a man, Confucius is proficient in the six arts, and his son is also proficient in the six arts, therefore, Confucius can become a saint, and his son can also become a saint! β
Wang Hua couldn't help but take off the belt around his waist and wanted to whip Wang Shouren.
Wang Shouren was not flustered: "This is the palace, my son is already an official of the imperial court, and if my father beats me, he will beat the official of the imperial court, and according to the criminal law, he can go to prison!" β
Wang Hua staggered back a few steps, as if he had aged many years in an instant: "Okay, you have grown up, you have become an official, your wings are hard, I can't beat you, hehe"
This Wang Shouren is a bull!
Yan Chengjin secretly swore to himself that if he gave birth to such a son, he would definitely beat him to death and die cleanly.
I saw Wang Shouren stand up without saying anything and walked to the duty room of the Criminal Department.
After he walked away, Wang Hua sighed: "This official has taught all the talented people in Jiangnan, taught the Son of Heaven and the Prince, but he can't teach my son alone, it's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous." β
Actually, Yan Chengjin wanted to comfort him, you are not an exception, there are many highly educated people, their children are not good, and they have even become scum, it is normal......
"Perhaps, Brother Bo'an has his own ideas?"
Wang Hua sighed, waved his hand, and went to Zhan Shifu.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Early the next morning,
In the early dynasty, Yan Chengjin was waiting in the Fengtian Palace.
Taking advantage of the fact that Emperor Hongzhi has not yet come, the hundred officials will hold a small meeting in advance to discuss the major affairs of the government and the opposition.
The position of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is in the left column of the hall, and Yan Chengjin stands next to the pillars in the hall.
Emperor Hongzhi Xu Bu walked onto the throne, facing the hundred officials, his face was a little serious, and he said in a deep voice: "The border has sent back a report, and the fire screen has invaded Datong and looted everywhere!" β
The voices of indignation from the ministers arose.
Liu Jian strongly recommended: "Your Majesty, it is better to make the general soldiers of Datong and the general Wang Gao of Weiyuan jointly resist the enemy!" β
Yan Chengjin fell into deep thought, he remembered that the Ming Dynasty sent Ma Sheng and Wang Gao to meet the enemy, but Ma Sheng was killed in battle, and only the defender Wang Gao escaped.
The fire sieve was the most ferocious branch of the Little Prince, good at marching and fighting, famous on the grassland, and, even better than many Ming generals, knew the Han art of war.
Originally, the battle of Helan Mountain frustrated the Tatars' spirit and allowed the Ming Dynasty to gain temporary stability.
If this battle is lost to the Tatars, it will definitely boost the morale of the Tatars, and they will once again intrude on the borders, and then there will be no peace on the nine sides.
Guarding is extremely important.
Wang Gao's shortcomings are that if the enemy is strong, he will not move forward, and if the enemy is weak, he will be greedy for merit.
This battle will surely defeat him if he strikes.
Yan Chengjin stepped forward, and his voice was just right: "The minister has a word, I don't know if it's appropriate to say it?" β
Although he couldn't see anyone, when Li Dongyang heard the words 'should not be spoken', he knew that it was Yan Chengjin.
Emperor Hongzhi's face was as usual: "Yan Qing's family, but it doesn't hurt to say it." β
"The minister thinks that the Tatars have suffered a great defeat in the battle of Helan Mountain, and they dare to come this time, they must have made full preparations, and they can't deal with it by ordinary means, so it is better to let the British Duke lead the Beijing camp to go, and it will also have more protection."
Among the generals in the capital, Yan Chengjin doesn't trust any of them, he trusts Wang Shouren the most, but Wang Shouren is a civil official, not a military general!
The second is Wang Yue, Wang Yue wants to stay in the capital as a bodyguard for himself, and when he goes to the border, there will be no one to protect him.
Therefore, among the short ones, Yan Chengjin chose Zhang Mao.
"Just a mere imperial history, do you dare to talk about military affairs?"
"You know that lives are at stake on the front line, and this is not the time to talk about it."
The imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate usually likes to insert a sentence or two, and if he is impeached if he has nothing to do, the military department has long been unhappy.
Yan Chengjin knew that they were not the right person, he had just been promoted to the imperial history, and he was not familiar with military books, so he was soft-spoken, and his words were naturally not taken seriously.
If he was an official of the Ministry of War, I am afraid that he would not believe the words of an imperial history.
Emperor Hongzhi didn't seem to take it seriously: "What does the military department think?" β
"There is only one branch of the fire screen to attack, and my Ming has the two armies of Weiyuan and Datong to resist together, and they have an advantage in troops, so they should be fine!" Ma Wensheng said.
He believed that military suppression was the first element of the art of war.
"Then pass on my order, Weiyuan guards Wang Gao as a guerrilla general, Deng Hong as the commander of the capital, and brings all the departments of Datong to attack the prisoners!"
Out of the Fengtian Palace, Wang Yue said to Yan Chengjin: "Wang Gao has always been proud of his achievements, no one in his eyes, when he was under the old man's account, he was scolded by the old man, and I am afraid that I will suffer a loss in this battle." β
Wang Yue is a general who has experienced a hundred battles, and Wang Gao has been under his tent again, he can see that Yan Chengjin is not surprised.
Yan Chengjin was strange: "Since your Excellency knows, why didn't you explain it to Your Majesty just now?" β
Wang Yue looked at the people around him, and then said: "The Ming Dynasty has always ruled the world with literature, and in the previous dynasty, when the military attachΓ© with the same rank saw the civil official, he had to bow down and bow, where is the military general's share?" If you don't understand, just look at the Ministry of War, and you will know that the Ministry of War is called the Ministry of War, but all of them are civilian officials. β
Old slippery head, knowing that Emperor Hongzhi would not listen to his advice, he simply didn't say anything.
Out of the noon gate, the scene in front of him shocked Yan Chengjin.
I saw that an old Confucian student was holding a bamboo stick and chasing Wang Hua to fight, and Wang Shouren couldn't stop him if he wanted to.
Wang Hua is the teacher of the Son of Heaven, who is so bold as to dare to beat the teacher of the Son of Heaven at the noon gate?
This gentleman is very bold, scolding and scolding, obviously angry, but Yan Chengjin is strange, what did Wang Hua cause to make this old Confucian student react so much?
The brocade guards were on the side, but none of them went up to help.
Yan Chengjin was thinking about whether to help Wang Hua report to the official.
The old man was so angry that he couldn't breathe: "You kneel down for the old man!" β
"Father, this is the noon gate, I am an official of the Zhan Mansion......" Wang Hua looked embarrassed.
The old man was so angry that he knocked on the bamboo stick in his hand: "What if you become an official!" I can't control it if you become an official? On your knees! β
There was a tide of discussion around, and I saw Wang Hua puff and really knelt down.
"Yun'er and I are not allowed to get up until we leave!"
After all, the old Confucian saved him some face, and he didn't want to let Wang Hua kneel for too long.
