The next day, Ji Ning took a carriage to Jinling City to meet Shen Kang.

As before, Shen Kang carefully examined Ji Ning's copy of the Analects and the Mean.

Because he knew that Shen Kang didn't care how many times he copied "The Analects" and "The Mean" in five days, he only cared whether he copied it seriously or not, plus there were many things in the past few days, Ji Ning only copied it three times seriously.

After checking the manuscript, Ji Ning asked Shen Kang about his doubts about studying Shen Kang's annotated Analects.

Almost an hour later, the question was finished.

Ji Ning did not immediately salute Shen Kang and retreated, and stood with a deep groan.

"What else?" Seeing this, Shen Kang asked.

Ji Ning saluted Shen Kang, and then said, "Disciple Sun Xiang wants to ask you about Zhou Yi. ”

"Say it." Shen Kang bowed slightly.

Ji Ning said: "The small seal and the big seal can pass through the heavens and the earth, the article can call the wind and rain, and the "Zhou Yi" is also a book of divination on the surface. ”

When Shen Kang heard this, his eyes opened, and he stared at Ji Ning with some burning eyes.

Ji Nington felt a real momentum pressure, which was by no means felt in his heart.

However, since it has been proposed, it can only be insisted on, and there is no reason for me to back down first.

After a while, Shen Kang retracted his stern gaze and said sternly: "We Confucian and Taoist disciples read the books of sages and sages, and have been educated by sages. ”

"Zi said: 'The gentleman is frank, and the villain is a relative.' You are self-cultivation and strict with yourself on weekdays, so why do you need to ask about bad luck? ”

"Integrity and wisdom are gods. Song Yu's "Wind Fu" cloud: 'The wind rises at the end of Qingping. 'A gentleman should read the books of the sages, learn the wisdom of the sages, gain insight into the future, and anticipate the future. "Zhou Yi Department Resignation": The gentleman hides the weapon in his body. Study weekdays, accumulate talent and strength. In this case, why should you ask about the bad luck? ”

For a while, Ji Ning was sweating like a pulp and was ashamed.

"Master Tai, the apprentice knows that he is wrong." Ji Ning bowed his head and confessed his mistake.

Seeing that Ji Ning knew his mistake, Shen Kang didn't continue the training, and asked in a slow tone, "What else do you have to do?" ”

"The apprentice is fine. The apprentice will retire and say goodbye to your old man in five days. Ji Ning said.

Shen Kang waved his hand and agreed to Ji Ning's retreat.

Ji Ning saluted respectfully, then took two steps back, and finally turned around and walked out of the study.

Out of the study, Ji Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Shen Kang reprimanded him for not taking the right path just now, he also pointed out the solution. It's easy to say, but it's hard to do.

Fortunately, Zhang Linwu is already monitored by Nalan Blowing Snow, so don't worry too much.

However, it is not without gain, Shen Kang did not directly denounce the way of divination as a deceptive thing, indirectly indicating that the way of divination may really exist.

Walking all the way from Shen Kang's study to the courtyard gate, Ji Ning couldn't help but think of that brutal tomboy, but unfortunately he still didn't see her, let alone that she suddenly jumped out to block his way.

……

……

Alone in a foreign land as a stranger,

I miss my relatives every festive season.

Knowing the Brothers from afar,

There is one less person in the dogwood.

In front of a joint burial tomb, incense candles, paper money offerings, and a few bouquets of chrysanthemum, dogwood and other flowers are placed.

Although Ji Ning has no brothers, what he thinks of at this moment is the first poem about the Double Ninth Festival when he was in junior high school.

On the Double Ninth Festival in September, standing in front of the tombstone of his cheap parents Ji Ling and his wife, Ji Ning read Wang Wei's "Memories of Shandong Brothers on September 9th" in his heart, and his thoughts couldn't help but be a little mixed.

Isn't he "alone in a foreign land as a stranger"?

In the midst of his mixed thoughts, He An respectfully sent a bouquet of lit incense to Ji Ning and said, "Young Master, please mourn." Incense the lord and the lady. ”

Ji Ning came back to his senses, took the incense, and then knelt down and bowed to the tombstone of Ji Ling and his wife with the incense.

He An also knelt down behind him and bowed to Ji Ling and his wife.

After bowing, Ji Ning couldn't stand up immediately, because He An in the back nagged and "reported the good news" to Ji Ling and his wife, and then prayed for him reverently for Ji Ning.

However, Ji Ning didn't have any opinions. occupies the body of other people's sons, and it is nothing to kneel more.

It took half a day, and after the worship was completed, Ji Ning and the others returned to Jinling City.

Since it was the Chung Yeung Festival, Sam Wei College did not hold classes. However, Ji Ning still went to study at Sanwei Academy.

The blue-purple divine light of Sanwei Academy works very well, and Ji Ning himself understands it deeply.

Of course, at present, outsiders still don't know that the light of the divine blessing of the Three Flavors Academy is blue and purple, and they all think it is yellow.

For two days, Ji Ning did not receive a reply from Liu Ruye, and he was basically sure that Liu Ru was angry.

Although Ji Ning had some regrets, he didn't plan to take the initiative to come to the door to ask for guilt.

And on the second day, Ji Ning received an invitation from Chongwangfu.

It turned out that after about ten days, Zhao Yuanqi wanted to chat with Ji Ning again.

Zhao Yuanqi invited for the first time, and Ji Ning readily agreed.

"Brother, I heard that you are going to have a banquet for Ji Ning?" After Zhao Yuanxuan learned the news, he specially asked Zhao Yuanqi.

Zhao Yuanqi nodded and said, "Not bad." Sister, do you want to attend? Ji Ning is talented, far more than poetry and mathematics, but more valuable is that he is full of wealth, and between his casual words, he can reveal a lot of thought-provoking opinions and insights. ”

"It's good if you can talk to him, better than if you keep your head down and study." Zhao Yuanqi persuaded.

Zhao Yuanxuan hesitated for a while and said, "I can attend, but I don't speak." I just want to hear what you think of him so much, what amazing things he thinks. ”

"Haha, yes." Zhao Yuanqi said.

Zhao Yuanxuan asked, "Is it just for him?" ”

"No, I also invited a few young talents to accompany my brother." Zhao Yuanqi said.

After a pause, he said again: "By the way, for my brother, I also invited Liu Ru is girl from Tianxianglou to perform a song. ”

"Brother, you won't fall in love with Liu Ru is girl, will you?" Zhao Yuanxuan couldn't help asking, "Although Liu Ru is girl can get out of the mud without staining in the land of fireworks, which is admirable, her background is a big problem after all, and my father and mother will never agree!" ”

King Chong is the prince of the highest rank and rank, and he is deeply trusted by the emperor. Unlike some of the county kings, General Feng'en, who have been broken, the Chongwang Mansion pays great attention to maintaining the face of the heavens. Therefore, Zhao Yuanqi, as the son of King Chong, not to mention that Naliu is a concubine, is not allowed to have more interactions.

When Zhao Yuanqi heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "You think too much." It's good for my brother to listen to Liu Ruye playing the piano and singing at the bonfire party, and inviting her to the banquet is just to add to the fun. Absolutely nothing else. ”

"That's good." Zhao Yuanxuan breathed a sigh of relief and said.
