Chapter 11: The Sage King Shouren (II)
After some twists and turns, Wang Shouren's marriage is concluded, and he has also become a solid fire in Hongdu, and everyone says that he is a weirdo. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info in fact, the symptoms are similar to those of today's neuropaths. However, Wang Shouren is not the weird person in their mouths, those ignorant people who laugh at him don't know that people have long been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and the scientific examinations are all floating clouds. After that, he often discussed health preservation issues with Taoist priests in various places.
Wang Shouren's ideal is magnificent, because there are so many sages after thousands of years, such as Kong Erye, and Meng Ye.
Although Wang Shouren did not know how to follow the path of the sages, he firmly believed that as long as they kept walking, there would be a way. The hard work paid off, and it was almost not long before I took a bright sage road!
After getting married, eighteen-year-old Wang Shengxian left Hongdu, Jiangxi, and took his wife back to his hometown of Yuyao, Shaoxing, Zhejiang. ”
The scholar fell into a deep silence when he heard this, and after thinking for a long time, he told Wang Shouren, "Learn from things!" ”
Wang Shouren naturally didn't understand what it meant, so he asked, "What do you mean?" ”
The scholar smiled faintly, "You will understand if you look at Sage Zhu's book." The above is very clear! ”
Wang Shouren seemed to understand something, and he seemed to have found the answer. An answer to becoming a sage, an answer that I have been searching for for a long time has finally surfaced!
The so-called Zhu Shengren is Zhu Xi, and Zhu Shou has the same surname. Zhu Shou has always considered himself his ancestor. Didn't our Emperor Taizu ever want to change his family tree to him as a descendant?
The sage is quite profound, and Zhu Shou doesn't understand it, let alone himself. It can only be said that Wang Shouren is a person with pursuits, pursuing the kind of ethereal things that don't seem to exist, it is said that it is related to the Tao, that is, the truth, everyone understands the truth, but how many people really understand? The real reason can't hear or see, and can only rely on the "grid"! I want to comprehend and use "grid", and I want to understand and use "grid". "I don't know exactly what Ge himself is. Being in a daze is a grid, and doing things is also a grid, as long as it is a method, it can be called a grid.
Such an esoteric truth, the great sage Wang Shouren understands, and I will help you ask when I get to the end of the day.
Eighteen-year-old Wang Shouren embarked on the path of seeking sages without hesitation, and after a few years......
Wang Shouren, who had been in his hometown for a year, returned to Beijing with his wife. Wang Hua looked at him very vigilantly, for fear that he would do something strange again. However, Wang Shouren disappointed Wang Hua, and when he came back this time, Wang Shouren seemed to have changed, and every day he saw it was just to see. Wang Hua breathed a sigh of relief when he thought that his son had finally stopped being a sage, but what he didn't know was that Wang Shouren had never stopped on the road of being a sage, although he was reading books, he was reading books. Or as always, unswervingly be a sage!
Suddenly, one day Wang Hua found that Wang Shouren in the study was gone, and he was afraid that he would do something out of the ordinary, so Wang Hua hurriedly sent someone to find him. Finally found him in the garden, where Wang Shouren was staring at a piece of bamboo. This is called "lattice", right?
Wang Hua asked him a little angrily, "What do you want to do?" ”
Wang Shouren didn't even look at it, just waved his hand and said that I was going to play, I want to understand the way of the sages.
Wang Hua was so angry that he left with a huff, and finally gave up control over Wang Shouren.
Wang Shouren still stared at the bamboo and kept looking, oh, shouldn't it be "grid!" ”
Li is in the bamboo, Wang Shouren just keeps looking at it. With the longing for the sages and enthusiasm, Wang Shouren stared at the bamboo for seven days and seven nights, and found nothing, but the person fell ill because of it, which is the famous "Shouren Gezhu". Since then, Wang Shouren and Wang Da Sage have great doubts about the doctrine of "Gewu". "Is what Sage Zhu said right? So why can't I find out so hard? Am I not qualified enough? ”
Wang Hua had enough of Wang Shouren's behavior, and finally he said a word. I don't care what you want to do, but you have to get into the Jinshi. Your father is the champion, if you can't even pass the Jinshi exam, then what kind of face do I have for your father.
Wang Shouren agreed, and then he began to re-open the Four Books and Five Classics and began to prepare for the exam. At the age of twenty-one, he won the first township examination.
In 1493 A.D., in the sixth year of Hongzhi, Wang Shouren fell off the list. That is, as mentioned earlier, it is now the seventh year of Hongji, and there are still two years before the next exam.
The second scientific expedition still failed to make the list, but Wang Shouren is not an ordinary person, he found Wang Hua again and admitted his mistake again.
Wang Hua was very pleased to hear it and told him, don't take it to heart about your talent and intelligence, don't take it to heart about your next effort, and the next time you work hard, it roughly means that the test results are not good, and the teacher thinks that you are talented, and the next time you do well, he will talk to you, yell at you first, and then praise you. Gives you confidence yet useful for some students and useless for others. There are examples of songs in front of me, who doesn't say it.
Wang Hua said with emotion, it stands to reason that Wang Shouren should be grateful for the pain, and then Wang Hua patted his shoulder to comfort him, and then went to continue preparing for the exam.
Wang Shouren didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, but said to Wang Hua: "Father, your old man has misunderstood, I thought about it for a long time before I realized that there is no need to take the matter of falling off the list to heart, but I really shouldn't take it to heart!" Miss by a mile! ”
Wang Hua looked at his son with a confused expression, what do you want to do as a stinky boy? Don't be angry, isn't it? However, Wang Shouren ignored it at all and continued, "It is useless to study hard for several years, and learning the art of war and being familiar with Tao strategy is the foundation of serving the country." After saying that, he bowed and retired.
Looking at the back of Wang Shouren walking out, Wang Hua let out a hysterical cry, "Are you going to be angry with Lao Tzu?" ”
Wang Shouren didn't joke with Wang Hua, and at the age of twenty-six, he began to learn the art of war, began to practice martial arts, and learned archery. I still can't read the Four Books and Five Classics, but I don't want to be the Lord, so I should give my dad some face, right?
Day after day, year after year, Wang Shouren has mastered military mysteries and extraordinary martial arts, and he has quietly surpassed many people in both civil and military affairs, and Wang Shouren has become strong to a certain extent. I have to say that Wang Shouren is a genius,,
After stumbling for two years and at the age of twenty-eight, Wang Shouren finally excelled in the exam for the third time, ranked among the best, won the jinshi, and was the head of the military department. However, because of the fraud in the scientific examination, Wang Shouren became the second place, but it did not affect his future.
The way of the saint of Zhu Shengren is that in order to only seek ideals and lofty morals, all desires can be sacrificed, including the most basic! This had a great impact on later generations, which was the law of behavior and guiding ideology of bureaucrats at all levels in the Ming Dynasty, leading the thinking of all people. No one dared to question it. But Wang Shouren dared, and has already begun to question. Because of one thing......
These are no longer important, in the next life path, Wang Shouren's fate will change in advance because of the appearance of Zhu Shou!
