Great Confucians are not stupid, but it is difficult for Great Confucians to achieve the same academic heights as they do in their official careers, precisely because of their academic advantages, which have become their own shortcomings after they have been transferred to the official career as they are.

That's why they are struggling on the road to their careers, and they are extremely difficult and bumpy, and they can't reach the height they expect at all.

Practice and theory are always two different things, but there is an inextricable relationship between the two, through practice can summarize a true knowledge, through the theory to obtain the ideal under the support of theory.

Scholars can do whatever they want, and the integrity of literati and scholars is vividly displayed in the book, which allows them to express their views and ideas in the book.

More importantly, the pedantic attitude of the literati in seeking truth and knowledge, or the tenacious and persistent attitude, can make them tireless in academic imagination, or rely on their own understanding to make their opinions on the human heart and human nature.

But obviously, whether it is temperament or perseverance, in the process of creating academics, it will become a sharp blade that is beneficial to oneself, but if it is in the official career, then it will become a sharp sword that will only hurt oneself.

Everyone has their own principles and persistence, and everyone will also have a stubborn side, the great Confucianism brought his own academic invincible principles and persistence to the official career, insisted on what they thought was the truth, and then fought with those politicians who were sleek and sophisticated, deep in the city, and used flexibility as the biggest weapon to fight, and their fate was actually divided from the beginning.

Among the courtiers who can reach the height of Shi Miyuan, Liuzheng and others, and even the officials who can do it in one state and one county, holding real power, there are very few real literati, and the reason is nothing more than the four words ideal and reality.

The ideal is plump, the reality is skinny, the ideal exists in the book, the reality comes from the world, and every official who can achieve real power has the most basic spirit of being able to bend and stretch, not afraid of slapping his face, and not afraid of leaking ugliness. And these are exactly what Confucianism does not have.

Whether in the book or in reality, for the so-called authorities such as experts and Confucians, there are only two words that are most afraid: questioning.

What authorities are most afraid of is a slap in the face, and what they are most afraid of is being questioned, which leads to the formation of ...... If you dare to question him, he will dare to scold your ridiculous logic, but it is this ridiculous logic that has always existed in the thousands of years of history of the Chinese nation, and even became more and more fierce in later generations.

The Song Dynasty was a dynasty that paid attention to integrity, the style and integrity of the literati, coupled with the imperial court's strategy of emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts, the name of the weak Song Dynasty was actually not wronged at all.

Whether it is fighting a war or governing the country, integrity and character are obviously not desirable, but among the officials of the Song court, in the Northern Expedition, there were too many civilian officials who forced the generals to hold high the banner of integrity and style to fight.

The wind and bones can make people famous in history, which is the reason why some great Confucians, and even literati and scholars, are willing to grasp the wind and bones.

Yue Fei's style and temperament make people remember Man Jianghong, and Wen Tianxiang uses desperate poems: Kong said Chengren, Meng said to take righteousness, only his righteousness is exhausted, so benevolence is to. What do you learn when you read the books of the sages? Now and then, I am almost worthy of it. So as to make himself famous in history.

But if he is really a qualified politician, after judging the situation, his integrity and character will be immediately thrown out of the sky by him: there is no special life, what loyalty and ideals do you talk to me about?

The wind and bones are suitable for the policy of fooling the people, a prosperous and stable dynasty era, the wind and bones must exist, and a group of people full of enthusiasm are needed to create a prosperous era. It takes a group of strong authorities to ...... With rhythm.

If they are all like politicians, the city is deep, sophisticated, and everything is seen clearly and clearly, when such a dynasty needs someone to make sacrifices, won't they all have to shrink back? In the end, the emperor will find that he has been pushed to the front without realizing it.

"You have said good things and bad things, isn't it left or right like Zhu Xi?" Zhong Qing listened a little dizzy.

Ye Qing didn't reply to Zhu Xi's letter for three days, but kept it on the table, which made Zhong Qing a little confused about what Ye Qing meant, so when she asked, Ye Qing talked at length, and even he himself was almost caught in the so-called theory.

"It is enough for Zhu Xi to do his studies well, why should he participate in the political affairs of the court, and it is not that he has not suffered the loss of officialdom. But he's not stupid, and now that he's thinking about it, he knows that when the court is extremely weak, his set is obviously not popular. knew that when the imperial court slowly became stronger, the ruler would need his academic theories. Now it is defined as pseudo-science, and he is also to blame. Ye Qing said with a long sigh.

"But he wants to come to the Northland again, don't you agree?" Zhong Qing clicked on Zhu Xi's letter and asked.

"I'm weighing, judging the situation......." As soon as Ye Qing spoke, he was glanced at by Zhong Damei, and then muttered the word insidious in his mouth.

Seeing that Ye Qing raised her hand and was about to slap her buttocks, Zhong Da Meiren hurriedly turned to one side and asked, "Then what are you going to do next?" Couldn't Zhu Xi be of any use? ”

"I have no opinion on accepting Zhu Xi to continue to do scholarship and start a sect in Qufu, but what I need to weigh is ...... What will the Holy One think when he learns about this? If I offend the current saint because I gave Zhu Xi a place, wouldn't I lose more than I gained? I'm not afraid of offending Shi Miyuan, and I can even use the request in Zhu Xi's letter to turn my head against Shi Miyuan. Can...... I have to weigh Xinjun's attitude seriously. Ye Qing said with some embarrassment.

"This is the difference between a literati and a powerful minister, right?" Zhong Damei's tone was still not good, and the meaning of mockery was more than the meaning of questioning.

Today's Zhong Da Beauty, since the new monarch Zhao Kuo succeeded to the throne and she gave birth to Zhong Ye, is no longer the original letter to Ye Qing, and the words are full of "virtuous helpers" who support Ye Qing's self-reliance, but her appearance has become more and more beautiful, and she is more and more like a mother-in-law who only likes to talk in her husband's ear.

"No, that's the difference between a smart person and a stupid person." Lord Ye was proud, as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in his mother-in-law's tone at all, but then sighed and said: "Zhu Xi still wants me to help Zheng Qingyi, you say he is not a stupid person who is a stupid person?" ”

Zhong Qing put away her thoughts and continued to mock her husband, and her husband sighed with her wife, and then said: "After Zhu Xi was recalled to Lin'an as a waiter, he never came back to Lin'an except for coming to Lin'an once. And this Zheng Qingzhi was originally a capable general under Shi Miyuan, but because he failed to get the pacification envoy of Lin'an Mansion, he gradually distanced himself from Shi Miyuan...... ”

"After Zhu Xi became a waiter, he was already waiting for me to take the initiative to visit him, so that he would condescend to wait for Yefumen, how could that be? So you can see it, right? Zhu Xi and Zheng Qingzhi are actually still all the way, Zheng Qingzhi ...... I can't help it. Ye Qing said with emotion.

"In that case, then why are you still hesitant about Zhu Xi's request to come to Qufu?" Zhong Qing frowned, she still didn't understand, although there seemed to be a contradiction between the two, but with her understanding of Ye Qing, things were by no means as simple as she thought.

She could feel that Ye Qing's desire to help Zhu Xi was by no means what Ye Qing said, it was entirely because he still needed to take care of Xinjun's feelings and attitude, so he was so hesitant.

"Oh, now it seems that she has changed back to that smart beauty." Ye Qing praised Zhong Da Beauty, but the result was still a blank glance by Zhong Qing, and then he stared at Zhu Xi's letter on the table, and said slowly: "It's just time." ”

"Timing?" Zhong Qing asked puzzled.

"It takes time for the saint to digest the dissatisfaction with Zhu Xi in his heart, science is defined as pseudo-science after all, if he agrees to Zhu Xi to come to Qufu now, it will indeed make the new monarch unhappy, not to mention that there is a request for the imperial court in the north now, so we must take into account the attitude of the imperial court and the saint. Moreover, helping Zhu Xi now is equivalent to helping Zheng Qingzhi, once there is a stir in the north, once Zhu Xi is connected with the northland, the court is above...... Do you think that no one will look at your husband and me? Therefore, once Zhu Xi came to the Northland, for some officials in the court, they would think that this was a signal that Ye Qing wanted to protect their master and apprentice. In this way, it will offend the saint, and it will offend Shi Miyuan, but it is not good for me at all. So it's better to wait until Zheng Qingzhi is suppressed by Shi Miyuan, and then I will reply to this letter. With his trademark easy-going smile, Ye Qing patted the letter from Zhu Xi on the table and said.

Zhong Qing was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, she spit out the word sinister from her mouth again, and then this time her buttocks did not escape Lord Ye's poisonous hands, and with a hint of ambiguous sound, even the maid who had just brought in the tea heard it clearly.

Blushing slightly, he glared at the culprit angrily, and when he watched the maid bow her head and walk away quickly, Zhong Qing was sure that the maid must have heard it, and even saw it.

After the maid's back had disappeared without a trace, and only the two of them were left in the study, Zhong Qing remembered that the purpose of stepping into the study was not to be ambiguously slapped by Ye Qing, but because Ye Luyue gave birth to a daughter for Ye Qing.

Yeluyue, who was already sitting in the confinement period, looked lovingly at her daughter sleeping next to her, with sparse hair, faint eyebrows, small facial features and the quiet sleeping appearance, and at the same time, a sense of happiness rose in her heart, but also accompanied by a trace of melancholy.

How good it would be if Da Liao didn't die, I am afraid that the daughter she gave birth to will be more precious in the future, although she is very satisfied with everything now, but the demise of Da Liao is a scar in her heart that is difficult to heal completely.

The gentle breeze drifted into the room from the window in front of him, and with the shaking of the door curtain, Bai Chun walked into Yeluyue's bedroom with a joyful smile, first walked to the window lightly, looked at the little guy who was sleeping very quietly, and then stretched out his fingers, and under Yeluyue's gaze, he happily touched the little guy's little hand clenched into a fist, and then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Facing Ye Luyue, whose face was full of happiness, he whispered softly, for fear of waking up the little guy, and said: "Ye Fuxue and Ye Yue, two names, let you, the mother, take the idea, saying that it is the meat that fell from your body after all, of course, you have to listen to your mother." ”

Bai Chun said as he handed Ye Qing's handwritten letter to Ye Luyue, and then continued to lean down, and continued to caress the little fist of the sleeping little guy with affection.

Ye Yue's name Ye Luyue naturally knew that this was Ye Qing's affection for her, and it was taken from his surname and her name, just like Zhong Qing's child was named Zhong Ye.

But for the word blowing snow, Yelu Yue likes it the same, which reminds her of the scenes when Da Liao was in the country, when she was escorted by Yelu Yixue and many other soldiers, braving the wind and snow that permeated the whole world from the Liao King City, and broke through the Mongolian cavalry's blocking defense line, and finally defected to Ye Qing.

"Let's call it Ye Fuxue." Ye Luyue put down the letter in her hand, glanced at Ye Fuxue, who was sleeping next to her, and then said to Bai Chun.

Bai Chun was slightly stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then is this letter back to you, or am I going back and forth?" ”

"If my sister is willing, let me give it back and forth...... Husband, right. Ye Luyue's face flashed with a hint of unnaturalness and said.

Bai Chun smiled and grabbed Yeluyue's other hand, but he didn't know how to speak to comfort Yeluyue.

It's just two simple words husband, but when it comes out of Yeluyue's mouth, it obviously requires unimaginable courage from ordinary people, and similarly, these two words also mean that she will give up too many things for Yeluyue.

Of course, from the standpoint of a woman, even if she doesn't think about something as heavy as a mountain, just in terms of the attitude of her children, Ye Qing can't help but be the husband in Ye Luyue's mouth, after all, this name is ...... Even if she didn't even have a ceremony to pass through the door, she became a real woman in Ye Qing in such a daze.

Ye Qing over there involuntarily sneezed, and after reading the letter from Chang'an in a hurry, the guilt in his heart for Ye Luyue also increased a little.

"It's decided, it's called Ye Fuxue, and the name Ye Yue has been vetoed." Ye Qing said as he met Zhong Qing's gaze.

"Won't you take it back to Jinan?" Zhong Qing said with some complicated feelings.

She didn't care that someone would share with her the living person Ye Qing in front of her, but she felt a little emotionally that this family was now torn apart, and she didn't know when she would be able to let all the people reunite in one place really and quietly, like a real home.

"Let's talk about it later, I can't take care of it for the time being." Ye Qing's tone was also with a hint of helplessness.

Jinan is not an ideal home after all, his eyes and thoughts have always been based on Yanjing, and his most ideal destination...... The same is also Yanjing.
