Chapter 15: The Wind of a Gentleman

Xie Shen scratched his head embarrassedly, revealing the smile that a child of this age should have, and looked at Confucius with a pair of innocent and watery eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Ahem."

Old Kong was stared at by Xie Shen for a while, so he coughed lightly and said, "Continue to study hard, if there are no accidents, you will definitely be able to obtain the qualification of a student." ”

Xie Shen was overjoyed in his heart. Who is Master Confucius, he is a county official from Jinshi. In other words, if Xie Shen is qualified as a student in the future, he will still renew his master-apprentice friendship with Kong Dedao when he goes to the county to study. There is such a big Buddha who appreciates Xie Shen, Xie Shen's road to the imperial examination is bright, at least before the college examination, there is no need to worry about it at all. What's more, Wu Youfu, the county lord of this county, also appreciates Xie Shen, and with the appreciation of the county lord and the teachings, Xie Shen has double insurance, and this show seems to be done.

In the following days, as long as Xie Shen steadily went through the Four Books and Five Classics and Zhu Xi's "Notes on the Four Books", and then humbly asked Wang Shouren for advice on the questions he didn't understand, he wouldn't have failed to sink into the sand in the child's life.

After all, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is a love field, and the imperial examination, as the road to officialdom, is more human favor than regulation.

Confucius took his hands behind his back and walked around the school, sometimes nodding and sometimes frowning, although he occasionally saw a few poems that were written quite well, but they were much worse than the "Early Spring" poem that Xie Shen had just written.

It is no wonder that Wang Shouwen's song "Yellow Bird" is still outstanding, after all, Mr. Longquan Wang Dehui is the champion of Chenghua for 17 years, the Wang family is a family of poetry and books, and it is reasonable for Wang Shouwen to have a good literary style.

Since it was the first day of re-teaching after taking a leave of absence, Confucius's teachings did not increase their intensity as soon as they came up. After only a few articles, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go to school." ”

These students are all twelve or thirteen years old, although they usually behave in a serious way, but in the end, they are children, and they are all overjoyed when they hear the words, and they all get up and rush towards the door of the hall.

Only Xie Shen and Wang Shouwen got up unhurriedly and walked slowly.

"Xie Shen, since you're out of school, why don't you hurry out to play."

Kong Dedao walked in front of Xie Shen and asked lightly.

Hearing this, Xie Shen turned around and first bowed to Kong Dedao, and then said in a deep voice: "Back to Master, the reason why students are not in a hurry to play is because they want to cultivate their minds and not be disturbed by external things. Su Mingyun once said, 'For the way of the general, you should first cure the heart.' Mount Tai collapsed in front and the color remained unchanged, and the elk was on the left and did not look instantaneous, and then it could control the interests and harms, and it could treat the enemy'. Although Su Mingyun's original intention was to explain the road to the general's army, the students thought that this principle could also be used in their studies. If you can't keep your mind like water and not be moved by external objects when you study, you can't have great achievements. ”

Kong Dedao nodded again and again, Su Mingyun's words came from "Heart Technique", Xie Shen knew that it was not surprising, but he was able to touch the bypass, and it was really rare to understand the admonition of the generals to march and fight.

What's more, Xie Shen is only twelve years old, and if he can be cultivated, he will definitely become a capable minister who rules the world.

Wang Shouwen has been studying in Sanwei Academy for two years, and his heart is naturally clear, as for Xie Shen, it is really an unexpected discovery.

If Xie Shen used to impress the Confucian teachings with his literary talents, then he now won the appreciation of the Confucian teachings with his gentlemanly temperament.

"Okay, okay." Kong Dedao actually patted Xie Shen's arm and said, "Go ahead." ”

"The student quits."

Xie Shen did not show the slightest sense of pride, but only bowed his hand to the old sect and respectfully withdrew from the school.

Not far from the school, Wang Shouwen chased him out, and seeing his surprised look, Xie Shen only felt funny.

"Why, you're not stunned, are you?"

Wang Shouwen's eyes were full of respect for Xie Shen, and he said excitedly: "Brother Xie Xian, do you know that Sect Confucius has never praised others so much. ”

Xie Shen frowned and said, "Did the master praise me?" ”

In his impression, just now Confucius just smiled slightly, patted him approvingly, and didn't say anything special.

"Don't you know, Confucian has always been a strict teacher, with a straight face all day long. The students of the county school and the academy, which one has not been beaten by him. But he is completely different from you, and he patted you on the shoulder for the first time, isn't this what is appreciating you? ”

Xie Shen was speechless for a while, he really couldn't imagine that an ordinary action would be understood by Wang Shouwen with so many layers of meaning, no wonder they all said that the ancients were good at philosophers.

"If that's the case, it's a happy event......"

Of course, Xie Shen is not a pedantic person who can only die studying, and if Confucian teachings really favor him so much, Xiucai's fame will almost be in hand.

"Hehe, Brother Xie Xian, you must be hungry too, why don't we go out and have a good meal."

Xie Shen frowned when he heard this: "Now is the time to enter the academy, shouldn't we live in the academy?" ”

Wang Shouwen rolled his eyes and almost held his breath.

"It's also night, so we just need to rush back to the academy before sunset. As for the daytime, as long as the master finishes his coursework, he can naturally go out for a walk. ”

Xie Shen scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "So that's the case." ”

It seems that he misunderstood the meaning of boarding, and it seems that he is much freer.

The two of them left the academy with their front and back feet, and under the leadership of Wang Shouwen, Xie Shen followed them to a quiet alley.

"Where are you taking me, not ......?"

Xie Shen instinctively swallowed his saliva, which amused Wang Shouwen.

"Of course I'm taking you to my house to eat, what good can you eat outside?"

"Uh." Xie Shen suddenly realized that the Wang family is a family of poets and scholars, and Wang Hua is the champion of Chenghua for 17 years, and his family background is bound to be very good. This Wang Shouwen has eaten since he was a child, and where he is used to eating outside. Recalling Wang Shouwen's sad expression on pickles in the bamboo building, Xie Shenzhi sighed.

Let's go, anyway, sooner or later he will have to make friends with Wang Yangming, and sooner will have the benefit of sooner.

"I'll go with you, but I want to see how delicious the dishes of the prince's house are."

Xie Shen half-jokingly walked forward.

Wang Shouwen was naturally overjoyed. In terms of knowledge, he is naturally not as good as Xie Shen, but it is not a problem to invite Xie Shen to have a big meal.

The two of them walked through the alley to a fairly lively main street. Wang Shouwen walked to a corner door and stopped, stepped forward and lightly buckled the door knocker, and soon heard a small sound of footsteps.
