Of course, with Fang Yizhi, the brawl did not happen, but Gu Jiang and Hou Fangyu are both arrogant people, although after Fang Yizhi's mediation, both parties agreed not to worry about each other, but the mutual contempt or hostility between the two has not improved. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIn Gu Jiang's view, Hou Fangyu is just a shallow person who relies on his father's identity and can write some articles that are not meaningful, and he has no real knowledge, and he lacks the sincerity to take his studies seriously, and even has a bad heart. Because there is a saying in "University": "Those who want to correct their hearts must first be sincere in their intentions." "Hou Fangyu's intention to discuss knowledge is not sincere, and there are a lot of private thoughts, which will naturally lead to improper mental skills.

In Hou Fangyu's view, Gu Jiang's remarks deviated far from the master's teachings, but he was able to justify himself, making it difficult to find problems. And this is difficult to find out the problem, and it is also his most hateful point, it can really be said that "the heart is dangerous and dangerous, the line is open and firm, the words are false and argued, the ugly and Bo, and the obedience is not Ze", (this is the reason for Confucius's punishment of Shaozheng Mao recorded by Xunzi) is really a scum, a big traitor. It's just a pity that Fang Mizhi has also been bewitched by him a lot. Of course, this is not to blame Fang Mizhi, it is all because this Gu Jiang is too treacherous and too capable of confusing people, just like Shao Zhengmao back then, even the master's students, except for Yan Hui, can be confused by him. Now although he can recognize his treachery, it is a pity that he is not as good as Confucius, as the prime minister of the Lu State, and can do the "punishment of a gentleman".

And both of them also have a lot of supporters, Gu Jiang has been fighting with Confucianism for a while, and many people have indeed been impressed by his knowledge, including some children of the Fang family; And Hou Fangyu is a famous family, and his moral articles are also well-known in the world, and there are many fans, among which there are some children of the Fang family. Naturally, their views on each other also influenced the views of their supporters, and as a result, ...... Naturally, Fang Yizhi felt that he was even more busy than before.

But today, after receiving a letter, Fang Yizhi was in a good mood. Putting down the letter, he couldn't help but say with joy: "This harmful spirit is finally here!" ”

The "harmful spirit" in Fang Yizhi's mouth naturally refers to Zheng Sen. Zheng Sen's letter said that he was now visiting his teacher Qian Qianyi at home in Changshu, and that he would soon be ready to leave for Tongcheng. Of course, Fang Yizhi was very happy to know the news, this was the joy of reuniting old friends: secondly, it was also because, compared with Gu Jiang, Zheng Sen's level in mathematics and heavenly gifts was significantly higher, and he was better able to have academic discussions with him: Of course, another reason was that Fang Yizhi felt that Zheng Sen was better than himself and Gu Jiang in dealing with others, and now in this messy situation, he was needed to help clean up.

……

Suzhou Mansion, Changshu.

A few years ago, Qian Qianyi was freed from prison with the help of the eunuch Cao Huachun, but he was also cut back to live in his home. After returning to his hometown of Changshu, Qian Qianyi, who had no hope of advancing in a short period of time, stayed in his hometown temporarily, but he was not desperate, because he knew that Zhou Yanru, the great enemy of the Donglin Party, had fallen, and his comeback was only a matter of time.

Although Zheng Sen has been busy in recent years, he often writes to greet him, and even asks someone to bring a lot of gifts to Qian Qianyi, and Qian Qianyi also knows that it is now a troubled era, and in such a troubled world, if he wants to make a difference in politics, he must find a military general who can be used as a backup. Although everyone does not talk about the consequences of the total collapse of Yang Sichang's strategy of "four positive and six corners, ten sides of the net", especially the consequences of the comprehensive warlordization of generals from all walks of life, although everyone does not talk about it, Qian Qianyi, who has read poetry and books and is very familiar with the history of the past dynasties, is not unable to see it. It's just that although he sees it in his eyes and thinks in his heart, Qian Qianyi also understands that some things are not easy to say in his mouth. That's where the old man is better than the hairy boys. Because of this thought, he was naturally very enthusiastic about Zheng Sen's visit. not only personally took Zheng Sen's hand and took him around his home, but also took him to meet his wife, and let his son Qian Sunai come out to see Zheng Sen, and asked him to learn from Zheng Sen. Engraved with this skinny child, Zheng Sen suddenly remembered a story related to him in the original time and space.

said that back then, Qian Qianyi did not die because the water was too cold, and he shaved his head because of an itchy scalp, and then became an official of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. After he left home to become an official in the capital, Liu Ru said angrily: "If a man refuses to observe a festival for the country, do I still have to observe a festival for him at home?" So he found a scholar surnamed Sun and put a big green hat on Qian Qianyi. Qian Sunai was furious when he found out about this, so he led someone to beat the surnamed Sun to death and went to sue the official. Then, Qian Qianyi, who learned of this, was furious, and wrote back to scold his son, saying: "Liu Ru can't be without grandchildren for a day, and I can't be without Liu for a day!" If you kill Sun Shusheng, it is tantamount to murdering you Lao Tzu and me, Lao Tzu, I don't recognize you as a son! So Qian Sunai had no choice but to withdraw the lawsuit obediently, and then honestly watched Liu Ru bury Sun Shusheng with the rite of burial.

"Teacher, the junior brother's body seems to be a little thin......" When Qian Sun fell in love, Zheng Sen said to Qian Qianyi.

"Alas!" When Qian Qianyi heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said, "The old man is not blessed, he gave birth to several sons, but they all died one after another, and now he only has this son, but he has been thin and weak since he was a child, alas, ......"

"Teacher, Hua Tuo has a saying, the human body wants to work. When I look at the attitude of my junior and younger brothers, I am afraid that in addition to reading, there is rarely time for exercise. Zheng Sen said, "Actually, moving often is indeed good for the body." The rule at home is that every morning, the children need to get up and run a lap or two along the school grounds. So the students and the students' younger brothers are all in good health. The teacher can also let the junior and younger students try, but it should be gradual and not too much. ”

Qian Qianyi listened, nodded and said, "It's okay to let him move." ”

He paused, and then said, "Ah Sen, I have read the book you have read carefully recently. It is indeed quite reasonable, but the rhetoric in many places is too intense, and it is not the meaning of the saint's kindness. ”

Zheng Sen listened to it and knew that Qian Qianyi had really read the "Origin of Species" and their accompanying explanations carefully, and he must have taught something, so he said: "The student is crazy, and I ask the teacher to teach." ”

"Well," Qian Qianyi nodded, and said, "Your book, deduced from the 'Heavenly Gift', although there are still some places that are not very clear, but in general, it can be regarded as very strict. Relying on this book alone, your academic achievement status in the future will not be comparable to that of the old man. ”

"The teacher praised him like this, and the students were ashamed." Zheng Sen hurriedly hugged his fists.

"Don't come to these vains." Qian Qianyi smiled, "Ah Sen, I heard people say that you aspire to be a saint. The old man is far from being a saint, if you can't far surpass the old man, what kind of saint should you be? It's just that this explanation of yours has some inappropriate words, the old man looked at it carefully, and then annotated it, you can take it back and see. ”

Speaking of this, Qian Qianyi called a servant and asked him to go to his study to get the copy of "The Origin of Species" and its explanation.

The servant said yes and went, and in a few moments he returned with a thick set of books.

Qian Qianyi said again: "Ah Sen, Confucius said: 'Words are not written, and deeds are not far.'" And he said, 'Be courteous, then gentleman.'" Your book is more than simple, and the style is quite insufficient, but it has a bit of the flavor of Mozi's articles. It's just that although Mozi is a great sage, he is not a saint. You have to be a saint with all your heart, and this statement should not be completely deviated. ”

Zheng Sen hurriedly saluted and said, "The student has been taught." ”

Qian Qianyi nodded and smiled: "So good, very good......"

……

On the same day, Qian Qianyi arranged for Zheng Sen to live in his house, and at night, Zheng Sen lit a whale oil lamp on his desk, and the bright yellow light illuminated the whole house. Nowadays, this whale oil lamp is very popular in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The original vegetable oil lamps or candles are rarely seen except in temples. (In the temple, whale oil is not used because it is obtained by killing.) ）

Zheng Sen opened Qian Qianyi's annotated "The Origin of Species" and its commentary under the light, and saw that between the pages of the book, Qian Qianyi used a red pen to make detailed changes in many places. Especially in the later commentary, there are many changes, and in many places, the text has even been changed more than the original text. Zheng Sen looked at the past one by one and found that Qian Qianyi basically did not change the original intention of the book, but the words were indeed accurate and beautiful after he changed them. Especially in the commentary part, after Qian Qianyi gave full play to many of the contents, he confirmed the way of Confucius and Mencius sages, and did a lot better than himself and Gu Jiang and Fang Yizhi. It's also a little more convincing. Zheng Sen knew from this that Qian Qianyi had indeed put a lot of effort into this book. And when it comes to learning, at least for now, Zheng Sen, Gu Jiang, and Fang Yizhi can't compare to this Tanhualang.

Zheng Sen also knew that Qian Qianyi was helping him not only with words, but also by doing so, he was endorsing himself. There are definitely a lot of things that may cause controversy and trouble in these words. It can certainly help you build up your reputation, but it can also bring you a lot of opponents and bring a reputation such as "crazy birth". When the time comes, it is not impossible to brush up a Li Zhen-style reputation. But with Qian Qianyi's annotation, the whole situation is completely different, not to mention that Qian Qianyi's words effectively soften those places that are too exciting, and when quoting the words of the sage to corroborate it, it is also better and more convincing.

"Mr. Qian's investment is not small." Zheng Sen thought, "For the sake of this investment, no matter what the future holds, I can't let him fall into the reputation of 'the water is too cold' and 'the scalp is itchy'." ”
