Chapter 15, The Story of Yueyang Tower
Xu Shande's move was stunned, the two ladies were frightened, and they were about to open their mouths to reprimand, but Xu Shande didn't care about these After shouting, he stepped into the study, and after entering, he closed the door inside, and the angry two ladies smoked and stomped their feet and scolded the street, and Xu Zheng Xu Jing saw that someone was the first bird, and they got up one by one, ran to the base of the study wall, and eavesdropped on the situation inside.
At this time, Xu Caizheng in the study heard the voice, and saw Xu Shande come in, and closed the door, Xu Shande was conscious, seeing that Xu Caizheng did not speak, he moved a bench and placed it opposite Xu Caizheng, sat on it, stared at Xu Caizheng, and made it clear that Xu Caizheng was not moving, and he would never move first, and he also inadvertently hiccuped, showing that he was prepared, and he would definitely not lose to Xu Caizheng in the time-consuming competition.
Xu Caizheng saw Xu Shande's actions, and suddenly became crying and laughing, what melancholy, what entanglement, all of them were left behind, and at this moment he just wanted to kick Xu Shande's ass hard, but after calming down, Xu Caizheng was also a little close to Xu Shande. Xu Caizheng didn't know what kind of mood he was in now, but probably when he heard that Master Fan had died, he sighed that there was one less sage in the world, and he was relieved to see that Xu Shande was talented and intelligent, and he had the qualifications to worship the prime minister, and the cultural inheritance had not been broken.
Thinking of this, Xu Caizheng regarded Xu Shande as the inheritor of Fan Zhongyan, and was full of relief, but Xu Caizheng looked at Xu Shande carefully, but found that although Xu Shande was sitting with a straight waist, there was a trace of cunning in his expression. Xu Caizheng just has no emotional intelligence, but he is not without experience, Xu Shande has seen this kind of look before, but it is not the eyes of any Confucian master, but the eyes of those villains in the court have such a look.
Thinking of this, Xu Caizheng couldn't help but worry again, the father and son sat like this for a while, and finally, the first to sit still was Xu Caizheng, it was not that Xu Caizheng was going to be embarrassed in front of Xu Shande, but Xu Caizheng hadn't eaten for a day, and his spirit was still strong, but his stomach grumbled and protested.
Well, according to the principle of whoever speaks first loses, Xu Caizheng lost, and Xu Caizheng asked: "Deshan, what are you doing when you come in?" Xu Shande should have said: "Naturally, I asked my father to eat." Xu Caizheng said: "I'm not hungry yet, you go eat first." Xu Caizheng said, but Xu Shande didn't move, both of them are smart people, and they both know that the first two sentences are just regular politeness, and the next conversation is the most important thing.
Xu Shande asked: "Father frowned, with a sad look in his eyes, I don't know what happened?" Xu Caizheng sighed, and did not answer Xu Shande's words, but said: "Deshan, I taught you to read, and now it has been two years, you are very talented, especially like to read a wide range of books, you have read a lot of ancestral works in two years, and now I read an article, how about you listen?" Xu Shande nodded in agreement.
"In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, Teng Zijing guarded Baling County. The more the next year, the politics will be harmonious, and all kinds of waste will be prosperous. …… The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy. Belch! Weisi people, who am I with? Xu Caizheng closed his eyes slightly, stroked his beard with his hands, and slowly recited Fan Zhongyan's eternal text, "The Story of Yueyang Tower".
When Fan Zhongyan was squeezed out of the imperial court and the new deal was abolished, Fan Zhongyan injected all the mood and artistic conception into this piece of Yueyang Lou Ji, not to be happy, not to be sad, the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world is to bring out Fan Zhongyan's transcendent realm, great revenge, and the last sentence of who I am with the return, but also to tell Fan Zhongyan's lonely mood.
Fan Zhongyan's article is well written, Xu Caizheng is not bad at reading, speaking of which, Xu Caizheng's experience is not much different from Fan Zhongyan, Fan Zhongyan is both internal and external, fighting in the northwest, pushing the new deal, and then being expelled from the court, and Xu Caizheng has always been excluded, has never been interrupted, full of ambition has nowhere to release, so Xu Caizheng felt the same when he read the story of Yueyang Lou, and the artistic conception was desolate.
Xu Caizheng finished reading, and the father and son did not speak for a long time, they were all savoring the majestic spirit left by Fan Zhongyan in the Yueyang Lou Chronicle, and finally, Xu Shande also sighed and wrote a comment to Yueyang Lou: "As soon as this article comes out, what poems, books and rituals are all bullshit." Xu Caizheng was stunned for a moment, then became furious and scolded: "You kid, dare to insult the sage!" ”
Xu Shande said: "How can I insult, I'm not complimenting this article?" Xu Caizheng said angrily: "This piece of article is Fan Zhongyan's masterpiece of Fan Xianggong, but no matter how Fan Xianggong is, he is also a person in the court, how can he be compared with the sage Confucius, you insult the sage even more than bullshit, it is really presumptuous, see that I don't need to whip you with a ruler." ”
After Xu Caizheng finished speaking, he couldn't care about sadness, and he jumped up to take the ring ruler, but Xu Shande moved faster at this time, and shouted while hiding behind the table: "You and I are both readers, and readers don't move their mouths, how can you be rough." Xu Caizheng said: "I said you Laozi, I want to mention the sage to teach you a lesson as an unfilial son." Xu Shande said: "Okay, even if you are my Lao Tzu, but you are also a Lao Tzu who reads, we always have to be reasonable, and we can't do it without saying a word like those rough people outside." Xu Caizheng glared and said, "You kid dare to insult the sage, what kind of reasoning do you have to say." ”
Xu Shande said: "You put down the ring ruler in your hand first, and then I will reason with you." Xu Caizheng snorted: "Okay, I'll listen to you, I see what kind of flower you can tell, I also want to tell you first, if you mess around and can't say it, just because of your crime of disrespecting the teacher, you will be lighter to discount your legs." ”
Xu Shande saw that Xu Caizheng really stood still, so he no longer hid, pointed to the Taishi chair where Xu Caizheng was sitting before, motioned for Xu Caizheng to sit down, and he himself climbed to his bench and sat down. It's just this one move, and Xu Caizheng is angry enough, Xu Shande is like this, it is clear that he doesn't take himself in his eyes, how can this be reasonable, but in the family, children always have some privileges, one of which is to let adults have to follow his routine, Xu Caizheng really has no temper for Xu Shande's behavior, and secretly breathed a sigh of luck, and honestly sat on his own Taishi chair, listening to Xu Shande's fallacy and heresy.
