Chapter 154: The Gentleman's Metaphor

Shen Kang saw Shi Hong and arched his hand: "Meet Lord Bookkeeper." He bowed slightly to Zheng Dongmen: "I've seen the mountain chief." ”

Shi Hong took a few steps forward and said with a smile: "Lord County has gone to govern the village, and this time I am busy with official business, so I can only give this gift." As he spoke, he squinted to the side and said, "Present it." ”

The yacha on the side, holding a long wooden box in both hands, bent his body to ninety degrees, and respectfully presented it to Shen Kang.

Shen Kang bowed slightly, and took the wooden box with both hands.

Shi Hong said: "Open it and take a look." ”

"Yes."

The classmates on the side also came out to watch, Song Yuan squeezed to the front and said, "I'll help you get it." ”

Shen Kang nodded, handed him the wooden box, and then opened the lid.

The yacha helped him open the scroll and wrote: The gentleman is righteous. Five big words. Under these five words, Zhang Wei nominated and sealed.

A county magistrate, he is full of poetry and books, and he doesn't say whether this word is good or bad, but only says these five words. The gentleman is said to be righteous, and the next sentence is that the villain is said to be profitable, and the Analects of Liren are exemplified.

In just five words, he expressed his gratitude, and praised Shen Kang as a "gentleman".

There are many nine-year-old prodigies, but what about nine-year-old gentlemen?

Shen Kang bowed his hand and thanked him: "Thank you for the praise of the county lord!" ”

The students on the side showed envy, and asked themselves if they couldn't do such a righteous act as Shen Kang, so they threw themselves into goodwill.

Shi Hong said: "Shen Kang, at the age of nine, he can know the righteousness and give up the small profits, which is worthy of praise." He also said to the students: "You should learn from Shen Kang's actions!" ”

"Yes!" Everyone replied in unison, and their voices were uniform, which was sincere admiration.

Shen Kang's face was slightly red, his fingers quietly twisted his sleeves, and Jiang Liu smiled and said, "San Lang is ashamed!" ”

"Hahaha!" The crowd laughed and laughed.

Bai Qichang was left behind everyone, and seeing Shen Kang's liveliness, his heart was cold. He didn't know how he got to the front of the people, and as everyone laughed and praised this Shen Kang, the whole person was confused and stiff.

Xu Cong asked: "Shen Sanlang, you are really a lucky star, since you came to the academy, the bodies of our academy students have become stronger and stronger, and they are all the effects of morning exercises." I thought you were a peasant boy, but I didn't want to, you secretly did such a big thing! ”

Shen Kang smiled and said, "It's just a gesture, why should Brother Xu praise me." ”

"Thumbs up, thumbs up." He turned his head and asked, "You say, yes and no?" ”

"yes!"

"Zande!"

Shi Hong smiled and patted Shen Kang's shoulder: "Good boy, come to the county another day, I have prepared a set of four treasures for you, and you will have to fight for Xiping County in the big competition of the four academies in Japan." ”

Shen Kang said: "Thank you, Lord Bookkeeper. Shen Kang didn't dare, Shen Kang didn't succeed in learning, just do his best. This big competition also depends on your brothers. ”

Look at what people are talking about, advance and retreat appropriately, a kid who is not even a child, if he is really affected by this adult's words, he feels that he is in the sky, and he does not know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, then in the academy in the future, he will not go out.

Shi Hong smiled and said, "Okay." But these four treasures of the study must be taken! ”

"The elders don't dare to quit, but the students remember."

"Yes." Shi Hong turned around and said, "Go back to the yamen." ”

The yacha on the side opened the sedan curtain, Shi Hong sat in the sedan chair, and smiled at Shen Kang, the sedan curtain was lowered, and the group walked out of the academy in a mighty way.

Song Yuan helped Shen Kang take the word back into the wooden box and said, "Let's send this word back to the room first." ”

Shen Kang shook his head and said, "No, let's go back to the lecture hall first, and send it back after school later." ”

Jiang Liu said: "Hey, in terms of diligence, we are not equal." Now, in terms of mind, we are comparable. It seems that you are indeed a fellow believer with me. ”

Phew, shameless this.

Everyone present pouted.

Shen Kang smiled and said, "Huh? Really. ”

Jiang Liu's face turned red: "You, as for being so unsure?" ”

Shen Kang smiled: "Do I have it?" He smiled and walked towards the door.

"Shen Kang! You're angry with me again! ”

Shen Kang looked at Bai Qichang and asked, "Brother Bai has something on his mind?" ”

Bai Qichang smiled warmly: "No, being a brother is just worrying about the four major academies." ”

Shen Kangnunu said: "It's useless to think too much, do your best." The responsibility is on your brothers, and I... Don't be ashamed. ”

Bai Qichang smiled: "You have to do your best." ”

"Yes. Naturally, naturally. ”

That being said, this kind of academy competition must be the best. With this bit of ink in his stomach, he didn't dare to step forward to offer ugliness, as long as he could successfully pass the examination, it would be Amitabha.

Bai Qichang's eyes were slightly fixed, Shen Kang had only been enrolled for one year, and his academic knowledge was outstanding compared to the same year, but compared with himself, it was still very different.

He wants to convince those who look down on him, and if he wants to make his husband satisfied with himself, he is bound to become a leader in the big competition, although Shen Kang is proud of the spring breeze at the moment, he is not his opponent, if it comes to the big enemy, Wang Lucao cannot be ignored.

He frowned slightly, looked out the window, Wang Lu.

Old Master Xu learned of Shen Kang's righteous actions, affirmed him in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "Come, write silently." ”

The morning passed quickly, Shen Kang and Jiang Liuchou went back to Youju to deliver the words first, and Bai Qichang went to Minglun Hall to wait for them first.

Walking on the road, Bai Qichang was worried in his heart, but he still couldn't get around Shen Kang.

Now that Jiang Liuxuan and Shen Kang are friends, he is a little annoyed. Seeing that Shen Kang's reputation spread far and wide, he was a little jealous.

However, he also remembered that when Baiyang Shanren was taking the school to paint, Shen Kang really helped him once.

In such a balance, it is even more difficult to balance the heart.

At this time, an unfamiliar face was waiting under the corridor, and when he saw Shen Kang coming, Liao Minghui bowed his body and smiled.

Bai Qichang returned the salute, and did not intend to talk to him, so he walked forward.

Liao Minghui coughed lightly a few times and caught up: "Qichang." ”

"What?" Bai Qichang asked.

Liao Minghui smiled and said, "Next month is the big competition between the four major academies, how are you preparing?" ”

Is this the case? Bai Qichang's face softened slightly: "I'm fine, why did your body become like this?" ”

Liao Minghui smiled: "I'm fine, just ask Brother Xu to buy a few pills in a while." It's just that I've heard people talk about the big competition of the academy, this is a good time to make a name for themselves, and I don't know how many people are staring at the name of the leaders of these four major academies. ”

The head of the four academies?

Bai Qichang's eyes slowly brightened, yes, what to do with these trivial things, and now Mr. has already agreed to let him go to the imperial examination, and it is the big competition of the four major academies, he should find a way to make a name for himself!

Seeing his reaction, Liao Minghui smiled and said, "I just don't know which is better or worse between you and Wang Lu?" Wang Lucao is from a famous family, so you can compete with one of them. You have to be a good student, you can't lose. ”
