Chapter 537: The Imperial Court, or the Temple of Literature (Three Watches)

Qin Feng's words can be regarded as loud, criticizing those who refuse to enter the imperial court, saying that those who aspire to the Temple of Literature are cowards, which is also a bit biased, and the target he is targeting is only Ji Ning.

But Ji Ning, who would be attacked, still closed his eyes, as if he hadn't heard it, and didn't participate in this debate at all.

Qin Feng said to himself for a while, and now it seemed that something was missing, thinking about it carefully, wasn't what was missing was the link where Ji Ning got up to argue for himself? He didn't know what Ji Ning was thinking now, and looked at Ji Ning for a while, as if Ji Ning still didn't mean to speak, he said, "What does Ji Gongzi think?" ”

Everyone turned their eyes to Ji Ning, and even Zhao Yuanqi looked at Ji Ning curiously, wanting to see what Ji Ning had in mind.

Ji Ning opened his eyes slightly and asked, "Aren't you here to discuss the content of the exam today?" ”

"Haha......" Some people present couldn't help laughing, and the feelings were said so much just now, and this Ji Jieyuan didn't seem to listen.

Zhao Yuanqi said with a slightly embarrassed face: "Yongning, didn't you just talk about it...... Is serving in the imperial court or the Temple of Literature more conducive to the issue of serving the country and the people? ”

Ji Ning frowned and said, "You have all been admitted to the Jinshi, do you need to make a final decision?" ”

"This ......" Zhao Yuanqi's face was still very awkward, obviously all the people present were lifted, none of them were Jinshi, and they couldn't be involved in the issue of serving in the imperial court or serving in the Temple of Literature, unless they could be admitted to the Jinshi, they were qualified to say so.

Just when even the prince of Chongwang didn't know how to answer, Qin Feng sneered: "What I'm asking now is hypothetical, if Ji Gongzi is admitted to the Jinshi, is he going to be an errand boy in the Temple of Literature or the imperial court?" ”

Ji Ning shrugged his shoulders and said: "After passing the exam, let's talk about the things in the exam, now it's just a person, thinking about things that go so far, if you can't do it, then it's not pragmatic, the thing to consider now is that if you can win the tribute, you can participate in the palace examination, if you don't win the tribute, you have to consider the next examination." The most important thing today is to concentrate on learning! ”

"Well said!" Tang Xie and others next to him applauded.

Ji Ning knows how to grasp the key to this problem very well, you are not Jinshi yet, just thinking about whether to enter the Temple of Literature or the imperial court after becoming a Jinshi, it is better to think about whether you can do a good job in learning, this is what a person should do.

Ji Ning's remarks made Zhao Yuanqi feel a little faceless.

Qin Feng was stunned at first, obviously intimidated by Ji Ning's high debating skills, but he quickly found a breakthrough in the problem, and said: "What Ji Gongzi said also has some truth, since he is a student, he naturally wants to devote himself to learning, but under Ji Gongzi's consideration, is it better to be an official in the imperial court or an errand in the Temple of Literature, and he can serve the country and the people?" ”

Ji Ning was slightly surprised, which made everyone present wonder why he had to make a surprised expression, and then Ji Ning asked: "Why do you have to be for the country and the people when you are studying in Xia, or even taking the Jinshi examination?" ”

"What did you say?" Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, and then his voice raised an octave, "You were admitted to the Jinshi, but you didn't do it for the country and the people?" So what do you do with your studies? ”

Ji Ning took a good time to say: "Doing scholarship in the next generation is naturally to promote Chinese civilization, so that future generations can inherit the contemporary cultural system, and can have certain achievements, add glory to the learning of future generations, as for the country and the people...... Seems a bit biased, right? ”

"Huh?"

Because Ji Ning's argument was quite unusual, everyone present was shocked, and there was a little more whispering in the originally quiet hall.

They are also debating whether Ji Ning's mentality is correct.

"Do you dare to say that you are biased for the country and the people?" Qin Feng seemed to have found Ji Ning's weakness and was ready to continue to suppress Ji Ning, "Ji Yongning, do you know what you're talking about?" If you want to study today, you naturally have the ambition of a man, to contribute to the country's society, to seek the welfare of the people, this is what a person with lofty ambitions should do, you actually disobey the teachings of the saints, and now you are not ashamed to say that you do not seek to study for the country and the people, you are heresy! In the next step, I will invite the Temple of Literature, deprive you of your literary name, and completely remove Sven scum like you from the ranks of scholars! ”

Zhao Yuanqi heard Qin Feng say a big problem, and hurriedly said peacefully: "Qin Gongzi, today is just to discuss knowledge, there is no need to make such a big move, right?" ”

Ji Ning slowly stood up and looked, raised his hand, interrupted Zhao Yuanqi's words, and said, "I don't understand a little, since Gongzi Qin is dedicated to the country and the people, has he achieved something to this day?" ”

Qin Feng tilted his head to the side, putting on an attitude that Lao Tzu didn't want to hear what you had to say, and said, "I haven't been admitted to the Jinshi yet, and I haven't been able to do so!" ”

"If you can get your wish, who says you can't?" Ji Ning said curiously, "The imperial court clearly has a clear rule that if you win the promotion, you can be awarded an official title, and you can be an official in the court, doesn't Gongzi Qin know?" ”

"What if you know?" Qin Feng squinted his eyes and asked rhetorically.

"If you know, why didn't Gongzi Qin hurry up and enter the imperial court in the name of a person to contribute to the imperial court, the society, and the people?" Ji Ning asked curiously.

Qin Feng was very annoyed by the question, but it was also a little difficult to answer Ji Ning's question in his heart.

Others will also think, yes, don't you Qin Dajieyuan want to serve the country and the people? If you don't hurry, you can serve the country and the people if you win the promotion, why wait until the middle jinshi?

"After I have to wait for the Jinshi to pass the exam, I will serve the imperial court!" Qin Feng said, "After being admitted to the Jinshi, you can do more and work for the well-being of more people!" ”

Ji Ning spread his hands and said: "It means that after Gongzi Qin is a jinshi, he can also become a bigger official and gain more power?" That...... Aren't you still thinking about yourself, thinking about becoming a bigger official and then doing things, instead of focusing on the people? ”

"You!" Qin Feng was furious, he didn't expect Ji Ning to be so eloquent, he was stunned and "survived in a desperate situation", and argued back an issue that was almost at a dead end.

Wu Bei saw that Qin Feng was a little short of words, so he hurriedly got up and said: "Ji Yongning, now I'm talking about your problem, you said that you are not studying for the country and the people, this is heresy, don't avoid the problem!" ”

"Yes, yes." Someone next to him helped, "Ji Yongning, you still answer the original question!" ”

Zhao Yuanqi saw that the situation was not right, and many people were attacking Ji Ning, so he quickly got up and said: "Today's topic is over here!" ”

Ji Ning didn't understand Zhao Yuanqi's kindness, waved his hand, and said: "Even the Confucian saints, who were first officials, and then got tired of officialdom, devoted themselves to learning, cultivated countless disciples, and promoted their knowledge, and now we are all inherited sage doctrines, according to your meaning, the will of the saints is also heresy?" ”
