Chapter 291: Take the world as your own responsibility
Wang Ning didn't expect that this old man who didn't deal with him in the eyes of outsiders would come over coldly today, and by the way, he planned to say something that might be very private with him, but he was really a little flattered.
Wen Yanbo may not be as good as Qin Bi in terms of identity, but to say that in Shilin, this is far more famous than Qin Bi, this is not to say that there is a gap between the two in terms of talent and learning, in this era, those who can be recognized as a great Confucian are all great figures, at least in terms of talent and learning, they are really impeccable, the reason why there is a gap between the two is that this is not going to the court.
Qin Bi was in the office of the Ministry of Officials, and he led the Tanshui Alliance signed with Beirong, but in the eyes of everyone in the new dynasty, they were all wronged and wronged, and they were in vain for the sake of scholars, although the people were spared military disasters, but there were few people who did not scold Qin Bi, let alone these scholars who claimed to take the world as their own responsibility.
Qin Bi retired because of this, lived in Jiangning, and became an idle old man, so Shilinjian also spared from the beginning to avoid talking about it later, and for a period of time afterward, it became a taboo.
Wang Ning made a look of probability, stood respectfully, and Wen Yanbo opened his mouth: "The change of dynasty has been a catastrophe that cannot be escaped since ancient times, but my Central Plains culture has been passed down for thousands of years, have you ever thought about the reason?"
When Wang Ning heard this, she couldn't help but have a headache and smiled bitterly, "Please also ask Elder Wen to give training!" ”
He himself did not want to listen to this, and his knowledge was far from enough to debate anything with these really wealthy Confucians, so this kind of unilateral indoctrination was simply torture for him, and if he were an ordinary literati, he would be happy to silence people with a few crooked reasoning.
But in the face of people like Wen Yanbo, this trick obviously won't work.
Wen Yanbo said: "Because my Central Plains teaching has never been broken." He glanced at Wang Ning and continued, "The current situation is uncertain, and the reason why the old man stood up is just to keep some fire...... Half of the students who died in Hangzhou in the past two or three months have ......"
Wang Ning still knows this number, so he can somewhat understand the mood of the old man. A large part of these scholars may be the disciples of this old man, and even if they are not, they are basically related, so whether it is out of public or selfish intentions, Wen Yanbo feels that he should stand up.
Of course, in Wang Ning's eyes, those pedantic guys are happy to be clean when they die.
The thought can only be swirled around in the head.
"The thing to warn the world has already been done, Liu Yuan has already done it, and people like the old man who have been buried in the loess to their necks, if they don't stand up at this time, wouldn't it be in vain to read the books of sages."
At the mention of Liu Yuan, Wen Yanbo's face was sad, and his hands on crutches unconsciously clenched, and green tendons bulged out under the dried flesh.
"Everyone will remember what Elder Wen has done for the world."
Wen Yanbo glanced at him and snorted lightly, "How does the outside world comment on the old man, you don't know about me?" ”
Wang Ning sneered and shut up a little embarrassed.
Wen Yanbo also said: "Your relationship with Qin Bi is now known all over the city, which is not a good thing for you and him." I'm here today to tell you what you should do. ”
Wang Ning said: "What does Elder Wen think I should do?"
Wen Yanbo pondered for a moment: "Cut off the connection with that side."
Wang Ning said: "How to break?"
Before Wen Yanbo could speak, he was already very impolite and continued, "There are some things in this world that you can't do if you want to, even if I really want to break it now, no matter which ......side it is, I laughed bitterly," he said with a wry smile, "Don't hide it from Wen Lao, I originally just wanted to be a gentleman who bullied men and women in Jiangning, and then I have been working hard in this direction, and the result is almost as I wanted, most of the shopping malls in Jiangning have my shadow, it can be said that as long as I stomp my feet, there will really be many people who have a hard time...... But later on the flood and the Jiangpu matter, I was inexplicably involved, and I finally got out, but now I have fallen into such a situation...... You say, "Why should I come here?" ”
Wen Yanbo said: "The big husband should take the world as his own responsibility."
Wang Ning smiled, but it didn't mean to be sarcastic, "If everyone in the world can do this, I'm afraid the imperial court will not fall into the current situation of being attacked by the enemy." ”
Wang Ning pulled the topic back again, "I originally planned to do something in Suzhou, and you know that this business has become bigger, and there are a lot of people under my hands, and no matter how rich Jiangning is, it is not enough to eat...... But before he arrived in Suzhou, he was involved in some rebellions. Speaking of this, Wang Ning was stunned for a moment, looking like he could continue to speak, and after a while, he finally made up his mind, and he continued: "Originally, I planned to give up the industry in Hangzhou and retract back to Jiangning, but it backfired, Qin Lao sent me a letter, telling me to stay here, probably to help do something......
"I revealed my identity in Fang Lin's camp, and now I want to take this step really badly, if it weren't for my great fortune, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to talk to you now." Wang Ning sighed a few words and smiled, "But Old Wen, everything that has been born so far is not what I want to see, since many years ago, I stumbled all the way, and what I saw was not that everyone took the world as their own responsibility, but that everyone was their own, such a selfish world, I am afraid that your ideas will not stand." ”
Wang Ning looked at Wen Yanbo, regardless of the old man's dark face, and said: "You once said that the people can make it, but not make it known, Lu Xianggong also said that the world is governed by the emperor and the scholars, not with the people, let me ask, Wen Lao, do you think it is possible to let those people also take the world as their own responsibility?"
Wen Yanbo's face was hey, and he was about to refute, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Wang Ning again, Wang Ning walked a few steps and looked at the north: "The people in the north don't exist now, and the prime ministers of the court and the central government are still forming gangs for their own selfishness, staring at every move of their political enemies, eager to attack people who use good rice paper to wipe their butts with good rice paper when they go to the toilet, and how many of those so-called scholars are really read for the people of the world?" Which one of them has gained fame and has truly worked for the well-being of the people? Old Wen, I crawled out of the pile of dead people, and the desolation and cruelty I saw were really not something that could be understood and governed by reading a few books. ”
Wen Yanbo was stunned, and finally sighed for a while, but his tone was not the slightest soft: "What you said makes sense, but the old man doesn't think so......"
