21. The Power of the Heart (II)

Hearing the ridicule of the white-haired old man, Tang Shunzhi smiled helplessly: "Guang'er is talented in different C, but along the way of the scientific examination, there are countless talented different C, in Suzhou Mansion, and even in Nanzhili, Guang'er can still suppress the rest of the people, if it is within the scope of the whole Ming Dynasty, it can rush into the top two ranks, which is my biggest requirement for him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

The white-haired old man said with a smile: "This year, the possibility of the imperial court electing the Shu Ji Shi is extremely high, if Zheng Guang can rush into the top two ranks, it is very likely to be selected as the Shu Jishi, enter the Hanlin Academy, and have the qualifications to enter the cabinet, by the way, if Zheng Guang can really be admitted to the Jinshi and elected as the Shu Jishi, I think, you should also bring him to meet our old guys, the heirs who can be selected by you, we can't slack off." ”

Tang Shunzhi folded the letter and put it in his arms, and said with a smile: "Don't wait until then, when the college examination is over and Guang'er becomes a Xiucai, I will bring him and let you see him, and let him meet us, the descendants of Yang Minggong, Guang'er is very longing for Yang Minggong, and he agrees with Yang Minggong's doctrine very much, I will not judge whether he is qualified to be my successor by whether he can achieve results in the imperial examination, he is already my successor." ”

The white-haired old man looked at Tang Shunzhi with deep meaning: "Shunzhi, it's not that I'm a snob, now I'm waiting for the Xinxue people to be severely suppressed, and the gathering has to be on the painting boat, and the Xinxue people in the court have also been repeatedly suppressed, aren't you all leaving the court because of this?" Now there are not many people left in the court, thanks to the blessing of the head of the court, but now, Xia Yan's situation is also not good, our friends in the capital let out the rumors, Xia Yan, I am afraid that he will quit for the second time.

Although Xia Guixi seized power, but he was a gentleman, Zhang Xuan was the first assistant in the past, and he was also criticized, but Zhang Xuan was indeed talented, and did a lot of practical things for the Ming Dynasty, and even more severely suppressed the arrogance of those eunuchs, and was very happy, Xia Guixi compared to Zhang Zhang, not only has more ability, but also has more tolerance, and has a heart for the public, even if others suppress his people, Xia Guixi will not abolish the public for private purposes, these years we can be safe and sound, Xia Guixi has contributed a lot.

Although he does not agree with Yang Minggong's knowledge, he admires Yang Minggong's personality, and he also turns a blind eye to us and tries his best to protect, but today we are not allowed to develop, Xia Guixi is also difficult to support alone, and now Yan Fenyi is deeply favored by today, coveting the position of the first assistant, as if there are signs of replacing Xia Guixi, Xia Guixi is gone, there is no one in the court who can shelter us, at that time, it is not good to have a big deal! ”

Tang Shunzhi's face tightened: "Strict?!" Xia Guixi is a benefactor of Yan Fenyi, if it weren't for Xia Guixi in the past years to protect Yan Fenyi regardless of his past suspicions, Yan Fenyi would have fallen to the ground long ago! But now...... Yan Fen is living to this point, to this point?! Why? Why did Yan Fenyi come to this point? ”

Everyone in the boat had a bad complexion, and the white-haired old man was even more so: "Back then, the reputation was all over the world, and Yan Fenyi, who would rather give up his official position and live in seclusion for ten years for the sake of different streams, has actually reached this point, officialdom, power, hehe, what Yang Minggong said is true, what he said is true!" Devil of power! It is really not easy for anyone to fall into demons, we wait for the rapids to retreat bravely and maintain our hearts, if you want to take root in the court and protect the heart of the scholars, how easy is it to talk about it?

Now Zheng Guang can be favored by you, if he really has a future, we will naturally mobilize forces to protect him, but if he is not worthy of our protection, Shun Zhi, you must also be prepared, we have little strength left, and has been repeatedly suppressed, if Xia Yan is dismissed, it is appropriate to come to power, the first to open the knife must be we who know the roots, at that time, as your descendant disciple, Zheng Guang, can he be safe and sound? ”

Tang Shunzhi hesitated: "In the past, we traveled with Yan Song to talk about psychology, and Yan Song himself also agreed, psychology is psychology, and power is power, and the two have nothing to do with each other!" ”

When the white-haired old man heard this, he suddenly became stern, and his tone became sharp: "It's irrelevant!" By the way, you said it yourself, it's irrelevant! But since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which of my Chinese doctrines is not combined with the political disputes of the imperial court? By the way, don't mess up your mind for the sake of one person! Excellent descendants should be protected and cultivated, but now, he can't let us put all the chips on it! ”

The originally relaxed atmosphere began to become tense, and people who wanted to enliven the atmosphere could not do anything, so they could only look at Tang Shunzhi, Tang Shunzhi hesitated for a long time, revealing a firm expression: "Zheng Weizhi's funeral, for the most regrettable thing in my life, I swore in front of Wei'er's grave, I will do my best to keep Guang'er safe for life, and live up to my years of mentorship and apprenticeship, Guang'er is not only my student, but also my grandson, I watched him grow up, how can I give up on him!" If I can't do anything, I have my own decision, and I won't bother you to do it! ”

A hint of undetectable appreciation flashed on the white-haired old man's face, but he didn't let go: "Shunzhi, for a son, is it worth it?" ”

Tang Shunzhi showed a smile on his face and pointed to his heart: "This is a sentence that Wei'er often says, and it is also a sentence that Guang'er often says, the Zheng family takes this as a family motto, and I will reply like this now, but I have a clear conscience, Peng Shangong, everyone, farewell!" ”

Tang Shunzhi got up and called the boatman, and no longer looked at the people in the boat, he took a small boat, went ashore and left, no one kept him, everyone was looking at the white-haired old man, and the guy who had been beaten around cautiously asked: "Peng Shangong, is this really good?" Brother Ying De is just licking the calf deeply, I'm waiting like this, I'm afraid it's a little bad, right? ”

The white-haired old man smiled: "Wenqing, you should care more about yourself than Shunzhi, right?" You didn't pass the last township test, this time, are you confident? ”

The guy's face immediately fell: "Come on, don't mention it, I'll study hard, at least, I've passed the township exam!" Moreover, this time you can't lose, there is still Yingde's disciple in your hand, I am friends with Yingde, if you lose to Yingde's disciple, this face is really nowhere to go! ”

The white-haired old man laughed, looked at Tang Shunzhi's departing back, put away his smile, his face gradually became serious, and then said: "The people of the Heart Sect are in the same line, at this moment, it is the autumn of critical survival, how can I mess up and cut off my arm?" I just want to see if he still has the original heart, if there is, he will not continue to sink, I tried once, judged that he no longer has that heart, but today I found out that he should never have given up that heart, just to see, for whom.

Before Yang Minggong passed away, he once said to me that a person, no matter what he looks like, he still has a hidden power, hidden in his heart, and only when he wants to protect a person who can give his life for him, will it burst out, and the power of the heart is not only on the lips, but also in action.

If we want to protect Zheng Guang, of course we can take action, although we are suppressed, but if it is not personally ordered by Jinshang, we will not even be able to protect anyone, but if I wait to make a move, Yan Fenyi and others will inevitably not notice that we treat Zheng Guang differently, if we further perceive that we deliberately experience Zheng Guang and pay attention to inheritance, it will prompt Yan Fenyi to take action, which will harm him. ”

The guy was surprised: "I see! ”

The white-haired old man nodded and said: "Moreover, the old man is also a little selfish, the Xinxue people have been suppressed, and the right to speak in the DPRK is not as good as before, we urgently need a group of handsome people to hold up a protective umbrella for us in the court, Shun Zhi is talented, capable, and more ambitious, and should not bury his talent between the mountains and forests, the old man hopes that Shun Zhi can go out of the mountain, become an official again, and seek a position while Xia Guixi is still there."

In this way, not only can you protect your own disciples, but also do something for the people of the southeast, you have a civil and military strategy, and you also have many views on the troubles. ”
