Tang Shunzhi saw Zheng Guang staring at the big box with a gentle face, so he spoke: "When do you plan to marry Die'er?" ”

Zheng Guang was a little embarrassed, touched the back of his head, and said with a smile: "When the student is admitted to the Jinshi and the title of the gold list, he will find a time to marry Die'er, more than ten years, and he is used to it, and he is inseparable, and it is also the luck of the student to be able to marry Die'er in this life."

Tang Shunzhi smiled and nodded, and said: "Die'er is a good girl, the same as your master back then, hahaha, I want to laugh when I think of it, I actually want to bring her whole person in for the teacher, hahaha, oops, but then again, if the woman does not give you her sincerity, how can she do such a stupid thing, in this life, no matter what, don't bear Die'er, no matter how big an official you are, how much money you have, you can't forget what just happened, a woman's life is not easy." ”

In this regard, Tang Shunzhi, who came over, talked eloquently, and Zheng Guang naturally remembered it clearly.

As he spoke, Tang Shunzhi put his eyes on a letter on the desk, looking at the six big words "If you want to fight, then fight" on the letter, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said to Zheng Guang with some guilt: "Guang'er, I never thought that you would have such an idea at that time, but the situation was so sudden that the teacher didn't react at all. ”

Zheng Guang just smiled: "The student has never blamed the teacher, it is the student himself who can't accept that such a talented person has a rough life and can't contribute to the common people in the world, such a talented person should have held power to benefit the people, not a miserable life, and the student just did what he should do." ”

Tang Shunzhi looked at Zheng Guang with satisfaction and said: "Wen Qing is too paranoid, this is the reason why he can't get fame, our group of people persuaded him countless times, he just said that if he can't accept his idea, he doesn't want such fame, but how much he longs for fame, he himself understands, he just can't let go of his attachment." ”

Zheng Guang pursed his lips: "To put it bluntly, a slut is hypocritical!" I couldn't eat anymore, and I was forced to be a son-in-law, and I wanted to save face and suffer crimes, and the students really couldn't stand it! He shouted in his mouth to clarify the things that are not white in the world, but he refused to be contaminated with a trace of dust, and he couldn't do it when he joined the WTO, so how could he talk about doing things? This kind of person's good words are useless, so he must be provoked with vicious words and scolded him awake, and when necessary, it is okay to use fists and kicks! ”

Tang Shunzhi nodded slightly, then hesitated slightly, but still chose to speak: "Guang'er, when you are admitted to the Jinshi, you will be a teacher again." ”

Zheng Guang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Tang Shunzhi in disbelief: "Teacher, you ......"

Tang Shunzhi stood up, walked in front of Zheng Guang, and said softly: "Students must obey the teacher, cannot disobey the teacher, and always stand with the teacher, but as a teacher, we must also protect the students and not let the students be harmed, this is not only the standard of teachers and students in the officialdom, but also the standard of all teachers and students in the world of the Ming Dynasty, the teacher is indeed an elder, but as an elder, while getting the respect of the juniors, you must do something that is enough for the juniors to revere you, otherwise, what face do you have to call yourself an elder?"

Although the teacher was not as paranoid as Wen Qing in the past, he was also a more stubborn person, so he repeatedly hit a wall, was driven back to his hometown from the Hanlin Academy, lived in seclusion for more than ten years, and finally realized some truth, realized how ignorant he was, realized the great wisdom and helplessness of the ancestors, and the teacher respected Yang Ming Gong the most in his life, and Yang Ming Gong did not have such a mediocre self as the teacher...... Yang Ming Gong entered the WTO, both civil and military, and did a lot of things for the people, but the teacher did nothing.

In this case, what kind of face does the teacher have to claim to be a member of the Yangming Prince's family, and what face does he have to be your teacher? Seeing that the students are officials and cannot be protected, but have to be sheltered by the students upside down, can such a teacher be called a teacher? Tang Shunzhi stopped what Zheng Guang wanted to say, and continued: "Your father's funeral is the teacher's biggest heart disease, the teacher swore in front of your father's grave that he will protect you for the safety of your life, but how can you protect your life of peace for the people in the wild?" ”

Zheng Guang was extremely moved in his heart, unable to speak, Tang Shunzhi held Zheng Guang's hand and said: "Go and get the Jinshi, don't worry about anything else, do what you want to do with peace of mind, no matter when, the teacher will support you and protect you." ”

After speaking, Tang Shunzhi left the Zheng Mansion in steps, and at this time, there were still three days before the township test.

Zheng Guang didn't know what path Tang Shunzhi would choose in the future, but he knew that the core of the path Tang Shunzhi chose would always be himself.

Zheng Guang feels that he is happy and lucky, he has not even set foot on his official career, he has already had the escort of a senior with rich experience, and as long as he meets certain requirements, there will be the largest opposition political and academic group in the Ming Dynasty to form the most preliminary alliance with him, which is an opportunity that countless people cannot have.

Since ancient times, those who want to achieve great things must have support their own forces, which can be established by themselves, or they can form alliances with other political forces, or join other political forces and become their recognized leaders, so that they can have their own power and have the ability to suppress the interests of the other party while promoting the interests of the interest groups.

As for the ideal utopia proposed by a large number of thinkers in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, in this era, it is not applicable, whether it is Li Zhen or He Xinyin, their ideals are very beautiful, but each has its own defects, but Wang Yangming through his own time put forward the unity of knowledge and action, which is an excellent thought that can be used all over the world, and it is also the most suitable thought for the Ming Dynasty.

However, Wang Yangming did not think of completely changing this helpless status quo, the unity of knowledge and action is the way to do things, and the thought of mind is an academic theory, these are the only ways to the brightest road, but not the end.

Zheng Guang cleaned up his mood and seriously prepared for the township test.

On the seventh day of August, the 25th year of Jiajing Nanzhili Township Examination was officially held, according to the regulations, candidates must enter the venue one day in advance during the examination, because there are a series of things to do such as body search and cleaning the number room, which takes a long time, so students must enter the venue in advance to prepare for the examination.

Prior to this, the old lady had been praying to the ancestors of the Zheng family in the ancestral hall of the Zheng family for several days, praying to Zheng Guang's long-deceased parents and grandfather, and asking them to bless Zheng Guang to be a lifter, to glorify his ancestors, and then to be admitted to the Jinshi, and then to glorify his ancestors!

Before dawn, Zheng Guang had already gotten up and washed up, straightened out his outfits, dressed himself up clean and refreshing, and walked out of the door, the old lady and the family had already stood at the door waiting, holding Zheng Guang's hand, and kept nagging, as if she wanted to finish the words of her life, Zhao Die'er looked at Zheng Guang with bright eyes, the more she looked at her heart, the sweeter she was, and sincerely wished that her husband could be admitted to the exam, glorify his ancestors, and by the way, he would also be admitted to the Jinshi, so that he could marry himself into the family earlier, and she was satisfied with everything, The only thing that I was not satisfied with was that the examination room did not allow women to enter......

Finally left the house under the expectations of the family's women, as soon as Zheng Guang went out, he saw Tang Shunzhi and the third uncle Zheng Jiang sitting at the left and right ends of the front of the carriage together, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and was about to ask a question, Tang Shunzhi smiled and said: "Come up!" Today's township exam, the teacher will personally send you to the exam! ”

Zheng Guang paused for a moment and laughed: "Thank you, teacher, the student will definitely be able to pass the exam!" ”

Tang Shunzhi laughed: "Come up!" ”

Zheng Guang boarded the carriage generously, Tang Shunzhi looked at Zheng Jiang, Zheng Jiang happily waved the whip in his hand, and manipulated the carriage to slowly advance towards the Jiangnan Tribute Courtyard.

Zheng Jiang and Tang Shunzhi manipulated the carriage with the lantern hanging with the five big characters of "Nanzhili Township Examination" and moved forward slowly, today is an important day for the Township Examination, the prefect of Ying Tian has mobilized enough soldiers and horses to achieve martial law in the whole city, all the shops near the vicinity of the Tribute Yuan are not allowed to open, non-examination personnel are not allowed to approach, and no noise is allowed to interfere with the candidates, the entire Tribute Yuan area is forcibly blocked with soldiers and horses, and before the end of the examination for nine days and seven nights, no idle people are allowed to enter, otherwise the officers and soldiers have the right to directly arrest and allow retrial later.

Zheng Guang opened the curtain of the carriage, sat in the carriage uprightly, looked at the countless students who went to the Jiangnan Gongyuan with him outside, and countless red lanterns, feeling the grand occasion of the imperial examination, walking and walking, the carriage stopped, and a neutral voice came from the front: "Stop when you come to the car, show the examination certificate!" ”

Zheng Guang poked his head out and saw that a street was completely blocked by well-armed elite soldiers, a group of civilian officials opened five passages, and checked the students' examination documents one by one with solemn expressions, only the carriage that showed the examination documents could enter the examination area, and only one person could accompany him, acting as a scholar, in case of emergency, Zheng Jiang had prepared some utensils in the carriage and was ready to accompany Zheng Guang to take the exam.
