In this world, everyone has their own accustomed style of doing things. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)

However, in Zhao Junchen's view, these so-called practice styles, in the final analysis, are nothing more than "moving" and "quiet".

Some people are better at "moving" and are accustomed to preemptively, to fighting fast and slow, to taking the initiative, and to muddying the waters after disrupting the situation.

Others are better at "quiet" and are accustomed to being preemptive, accustomed to accumulating thick and thin, accustomed to waiting for the right time to make a move, and accustomed to planning before acting.

Although the two are very different, there is no difference between superior and inferior, just different ways, as long as they are used well, they can achieve their goals.

And Zhao Junchen has now gradually formed his own style of practice, which is obviously more inclined to "quiet" in comparison.

Therefore, at the Deqing Birthday Ceremony, although Zhao Junchen first learned from Zhu Hejian that Zhou Shangjing would accompany him on the southern tour, and then had relevant speculations about Zhu Hejian's position, there was too little news and insufficient preparation, and Zhao Junchen would not act rashly without more adequate certainty.

At this time, Zhao Junchen tends to wait patiently.

Waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the situation to be clear, waiting for the other party to come out first, waiting for Huang Yourong's banquet, waiting for the "explanation" given to him by the eunuchs in the palace.

While waiting, Zhao Junchen will not be idle, he needs to prepare, he needs to be careful to try, and he needs to carry out his planned things in an orderly manner.

According to Zhao Junchen's plan, with the end of the Deqing birthday ceremony, he will start preparing for the upcoming Spring Festival.

After all, what Zhao Junchen lacks most now is the talent he can trust, although the Spring Examination - and even the entire imperial examination system - in Zhao Junchen's eyes, is just a necessary means for the feudal dynasty to stabilize people's hearts, and it cannot really select any really useful talents. Even those candidates who passed the imperial examination to become officials will degenerate into one of the countless corrupt officials within three or five years of becoming officials. But after all, it is also a means of selecting talents.

Not to mention. Zhao Junchen himself is a corrupt official, and in a way, this imperial examination system is only for the purpose of selecting a new batch of corrupt officials, which is very consistent with Zhao Junchen.

So. The day after the end of Emperor Deqing's birthday ceremony, Zhao Junchen summoned Liu Zimin.

This is a chess piece that Zhao Junchen has been inspecting for a long time.

………

Continue. Zhao Junchen is Liu Zimin summoned in the study, since the Liu family brothers and sisters were received by Zhao Junchen to the Zhao Mansion, except for the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve. Zhao Junchen never saw Liu Zimin again.

Liu Zimin just started to ask to see Zhao Junchen for three days. But after being rejected repeatedly, Liu Zimin seemed to have guessed something, and then he was not so impatient, but stayed quietly in the Zhao Mansion, and while concentrating on reading and studying, he also had a good relationship with the Zhao Mansion. Occasionally, he would go to Guozijian to exchange knowledge with those candidates who took the exam, as if the place where he lived was not the Zhao Mansion. It's an ordinary inn.

On the twenty-ninth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Junchen gave Liu Zimin a New Year's gift, which was not valuable, just ordinary pastries and fruits, but thirty copies of each were prepared, and Liu Zimin was surprised, but also quickly understood what Zhao Junchen meant, and took those New Year's goods to Guozijian on the same day, distributed them to the candidates in Guozijian, and received many praises.

Zhao Junchen is quite satisfied with Liu Zimin's appearance, so he plans to use him as well.

"Student Liu Zimin, I've seen adults."

After entering the study, Liu Zimin was as humble as ever, but with a little apprehension, he saluted Zhao Junchen.

Zhao Junchen put down the fold in his hand, looked up at Liu Zimin's eyes, and nodded with a smile: "Very good, it seems that you have learned something these days, after all, you are not as impatient as before, you must know that the things in this world are always fast and not reached, no matter what, you have to manage slowly, if you are like you originally, you just want to rush to make a contribution in one fell swoop, whether you can succeed or not for the time being, you will only lose your demeanor, let people see through the purpose, but also make people lose their good feelings." ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Liu Zimin could no longer hold back the joy in his heart, and said in a loud voice: "The adult has a deep meaning, the student already understands, thank you for your teaching." ”

He had been thinking that Zhao Junchen would have a purpose for bringing him into the Zhao Mansion, but he had been avoiding it, and he must have wanted to hone and investigate. It's just such an idea, after all, it's just a guess, whether it's true or not, Liu Zimin also has no bottom in his heart, and now when he hears Zhao Junchen's personal confirmation, he is naturally overjoyed when he thinks that Zhao Junchen will reuse himself.

It's just that, while being happy, thinking of Zhao Junchen's teachings just now, Liu Zimin hurriedly restrained the joy on his face, and tried his best to make himself appear stable and comfortable.

Seeing Liu Zimin's tight face pressed by himself, Zhao Junchen shook his head with a smile, and said: "It's good that you understand what the official means, the official was originally worried, and he has been avoiding you these days, and you will complain, but now it seems that the official is too worried." ”

Liu Zimin hurriedly smiled and said: "The adult underestimates the student, since he has already understood the deep meaning and teaching of the adult, the student feels that it is too late, how dare he complain about the adult?" What's more, adults are in high positions and are busy with court affairs, while students' affairs are just small things, and it is natural for adults to summon students whenever they want. ”

Zhao Junchen nodded, suddenly changed the conversation, and said: "It's rare that you can think about this official, but now that I think about it, this official rashly took your brothers and sisters to the Zhao Mansion, but this official was out of consideration, and now that such a long time has passed, I am afraid that many people have known, you are originally a Qing official, and this official has a bad reputation among the people, speaking of which, this official has dragged you down, and now the Guozijian, I am afraid that many people are dissatisfied with you, right?" ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Liu Zimin's face.

Indeed, since Liu Zimin moved into the Zhao Mansion, there were quite a few pedantic Confucian students in the Guozi Prison who broke off contact with him, and they kept talking coldly.

However, Liu Zimin didn't care about this, and the embarrassment was only a flash, and said: "Adults are too worried, what do those pedantic Confucian students know?" My lord, these days, you have been diligent in government affairs, busy with people's livelihood, living a simple life, and being easy-going. The students are all looking at the gossip of the people. It's just a rumor. As the so-called rumors stop at the wise, those pedantic Confucian students will be huddled by rumors, and obviously there will be no future. ”

Speaking of this, a hint of weirdness flashed between Liu Zimin's eyes. But because he knew he was telling the truth.

It is precisely because it is the truth that Liu Zimin is strange. In his eyes, a court official like Zhao Junchen, whether he is a corrupt official or not. They should all live luxuriously, sing and dance, and be full of official authority. However, through Guò Liu Zimin's observation, he found that just looking at Zhao Junchen's daily life, not only did he not have the slightest appearance of a corrupt official, but he even looked like a Qing official more than a Qing official.

At least, although there are not many Qing officials in the Ming Dynasty now, Liu Zimin has seen one or two after all. But when it comes to simple life, easy-going, and diligent government for the country, he is not as good as Zhao Junchen.

Zhao Junchen didn't guess Liu Zimin's thoughts. just sighed and said: "You can think of this, it's not simple, but it's a pity that there are more foolish people than wise people in this world, more stubborn people than good people, more people like clouds than clear minds, but I don't know how many people can be like you in this imperial examination." ”

Seeing that Zhao Junchen seemed to be a little lonely, Liu Zimin hurriedly said: "What the adults said is very true, but according to the students, among the students in today's imperial examination, there are still many people who admire adults and want to be close to adults. ”

"Oh? How so? Zhao Junchen looked surprised: "It's a pity, now that the spring season is approaching, it's not good for this official to get closer to these young talents, otherwise he would have to entertain them well, these people can not be bound by gossip, I'm afraid they have a great future, it's really a pity." ”

After a pause, Zhao Junchen changed his words again and said: "However, speaking of which, the Spring Festival is approaching, it is not suitable for you to live in the official mansion again, not to talk about the reputation of the official, just at such an opportunity, if you live in the official mansion again, I am afraid that the gossip will be full of rumors, which will hinder your future, so after the New Year, you will move back to the country to live in prison." ”

Ignoring Liu Zimin's slight change in face, Zhao Junchen continued: "In the opinion of this official, with your current talent and knowledge, there will definitely be no problems in the Chunyu Examination, although Huiyuan does not dare to guarantee it, but it is no accident to become the head Gongsheng." Therefore, there is no need to spend time on reading and studying, and communicate more with the candidates of the same period, which can also help the official pay attention to it, and see who is a talent among the undergraduate candidates, who is a mediocre talent, who is disgusted with the official because of folk rumors, and who is not affected by the rumors and intends to get close to the official. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Junchen seemed to be smiling, and said meaningfully: "If you can not be disturbed by rumors, you must be talented, and after the Chunfu will try, you will definitely be on the list, Zimin, don't you say?" ”

Speaking of which, where does Liu Zimin still not understand? Hurriedly said: "The student understands, please rest assured." From the student's point of view, there will be many people who will have the heart to get close to adults, and students will do their best to spread the kindness of adults to them. ”

Thinking that Zhao Junchen's arrangement can increase his weight in Zhao Junchen's heart, not to mention, there are countless benefits, Liu Zimin couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Zhao Junchen nodded with a smile, but said meaningfully: "It's good that you understand, but this official really wants to find a group of talents this time, so it is normal for people to be jealous of the virtuous and jealous of the ability and abolish the public because of sī, but the official hopes that you can avoid it as much as possible, do you understand this?" ”

While speaking, although Zhao Junchen smiled, between looking at him, Liu Zimin couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly said: "Students understand that students will never let adults down. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Zimin suddenly hesitated, and asked again: "However, it is naturally nothing for the student to move back to the Zijian, but Liu Rui is ......."

Zhao Junchen hesitated for a moment and said: "Miss Liu Rui's words, it depends on her own intentions, if she wants to leave with you, you can find her a good inn, if you still want to stay in the mansion, then I won't drive her." However, speaking of which, after you return to the Guozijian, all kinds of social entertainment also need silver, and Miss Liu Rui is not around, and she also needs someone to take care of her, so let's ask Qingyan to prepare five thousand taels of silver for you, and two clever scholars, although you use the silver, if it is not enough, you will come to the house to ask for it, and those two scholars will also be your own people, if there is anything, you can also arrange it, and you don't have to worry about it. ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Liu Zimin hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for your orders." ”

Zhao Junchen nodded, continued to look down at the fold, and said at the same time: "If there is nothing to do, you can go and prepare." ”!。
