Chapter Ninety-Seven: Examining the Teacher (1)

(Starting tomorrow, three changes a day, respectively from 8 to 9 o'clock in the morning, from 2 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and from 7 to 8 o'clock in the evening, it will be basically like this in the future. I look forward to getting more support, clicks, favorites, recommendations, thank you readers. )

Su Tiancheng is the Huiyuan of the examination, and according to the rules, he must visit his teacher, that is, Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren, who are the chief examiners of the examination, that is, his teacher.

This is the minimum etiquette, the etiquette that the reader must follow.

If other people were high school members, they would have gone to visit the two adults a long time ago, one is the first assistant of the cabinet, and the other is the second assistant of the cabinet, the power is monstrous, if they are appreciated, what is there to worry about in this future, but unfortunately Su Tiancheng is not an ordinary person.

Both of them must visit, in this process, they must encounter some things, how to deal with it, must think clearly, since they are determined to let go, don't reflect too much stammering, but also can't show the attitude of being a device and rejecting people thousands of miles away, that is looking for death.

According to historical records, Zhou Yanru was a little more upright, but he was also a little talented and ambitious, and it was difficult for him to be qualified for the position of first assistant, and he was extremely trusted by Zhu Youzhen, but he was unable to turn the tide. As for Wen Tiren, he is purely a traitorous villain, he has no ability of his own, but he is good at playing politics, and he has been in the position of the first assistant for many years, and has never done anything to benefit the country and the people.

The description of history is a description after all, what kind of people are Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren, since they have traveled to the end of the Ming Dynasty, Su Tiancheng naturally relies on his own judgment. Whether it is the official history or the wild history, it is a reference after all, and if you look at the Ming Dynasty with preconceived concepts, you will definitely suffer.

There is also one of the most important reasons for this, describing the exploits of Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren, most of them are the remnants of the Ming Dynasty, or the Donglin Party, including some historians of the Qing Dynasty, who are standing on the above angle, which is worth pondering.

And the description of the two has a great degree of partisanship.

In his opinion, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, not only did it not play the role of fixing the sea, but blindly excluded dissidents, propagated their own thoughts, and cracked down on all remarks that did not conform to their own interests.

Historians, when describing history, or commenting on history, need to stand on an impartial standpoint, and unfortunately, very few can do so.

There are a lot of historical comments, and Su Tiancheng is particularly unaccustomed to it, that is, people who comment on history regard themselves as justice

Body, no matter how outstanding and outstanding historical figures are, in their eyes, there are always huge flaws, and they use standards that cannot be done in the world to demand historical celebrities, anyway, standing and talking without backache.

For this reason, he especially did not believe in official history, and many official histories were the embodiment of the ruler's own needs.

Zhou Yanru's mansion was not so luxurious, which surprised Su Tiancheng a little. In his opinion, the residence of the head of the cabinet must be second to none.

Hui Yuan came to visit the teacher, the porter is very smart, and he will never make things difficult, if he annoys Hui Yuan, maybe he will be beaten by the board, however, Hui Yuanlang gave the silver, and the porter still accepted it with a smile, and felt in his heart that this Hui Yuanlang really understands things, and behaves humbly, has a low-key attitude, and really has the demeanor of a general.

The porter trotted to report to the housekeeper Zhou Kang.

Hearing the report from the porter, Zhou Kang nodded and walked to the door of the mansion in person.

Su Tiancheng saw Zhou Kang and didn't feel strange, when Zhou Kang saluted, he returned the salute.

It is said that the identities of the two are different, although Zhou Kang is a housekeeper, he is always a subordinate, Su Tiancheng is a person who will test Huiyuan, participate in the palace test, to a large extent, within the three of them, and turn around to be an official of the court.

Zhou Kang personally took Su Tiancheng and entered the mansion.

After walking through the courtyard, Zhou Kang smiled and spoke.

"Master Su, the front is the master's study, the master has specially instructed, if Huiyuan comes to visit, he will bring it directly to the study."

"The students are grateful for the favor of their teachers."

Seeing Zhou Yanru for the first time, Su Tiancheng blinked.

Zhou Yanru is a really talented person, Wanli forty-one years, 21 years old, even Zhonghui Yuan, champion, Chongzhen in December of the second year, the Ministry of Worship and Dongge University Scholar, entered the cabinet, at this time only 36 years old, Chongzhen three years in February, plus the prince Shaobao, reappointed as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, in September, as the first assistant of the cabinet, plus the prince Taibao, reappointed as a scholar of Wuyingdian University, became a member of the imperial court from the first grade, and at the age of 37, embarked on the peak of power.

No matter what dynasty it is, such brilliance is worth showing off.

Zhou Yanru is dignified, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, revealing a temperament that is not angry and self-assured.

"History of the Ming Dynasty" listed him as a traitor, and Su Tiancheng felt a little strange.

"Student Su Tiancheng, meet the teacher."

"Kun Yuan, you're welcome, this is in the study, feel free."

"The student thanked the teacher, but the student didn't dare to mess with the etiquette, so he still stood and listened to the teacher's teachings."

Zhou Yanru frowned slightly, still with a kind smile on his face.

The first round of temptation was reflected in two sentences.

As the first assistant of the cabinet, he was able to lower his posture, see him Su Tiancheng in the study, and tell him to be casual, the meaning of this is still very clear, but Su Tiancheng's answer is decent, and there is no special expression.

"Kun Yuan's poems, the old man is admired, especially this "Sauvignon Blanc", a sentence of broken hometown dreams can not come true, the old garden has no such sound, the pain of the soldier's thoughts, if it is not for the situation of Kun Yuan, the old man will think that this is a good sentence written by the poet of the border pass."

"The students also heard about some of the hardships of the battle, and they felt the same way, but they just sighed in vain, which made the teacher smile."

"Hehe, Kun Yuan is modest, such excellent poems, there is no amazing talent, that can never be written, your "Magnolia Flower Order" and "Butterfly Love Flower", the old man's family said that they like it very much, they are familiar, and they are all back, if the life is only as first seen, there is also the hardest pity for the sky and the moon, the past is like a ring, the past is Chengjue, the artistic conception is far-reaching, the old man thinks to himself, he can't make such excellent verses."

"The teacher is dedicated to the people, and all he worries about is the family and the country, and it is rare to have such idleness, and the students dare not sell in front of the teacher

Lane, the teacher is the role model of the student, and as long as the student can learn in case, he will be satisfied. ”

Zhou Yanru stroked his beard and nodded.

"As a township test solution yuan, will test the yuan, can be so modest, it is indeed good, the water is full, the moon is full, it seems that Kun Yuan understands the truth, at the age of nineteen, he can be pampered and humiliated, with a good mind, not simple, he will become a pillar of the country one day."

Zhou Yanru is the first assistant of the cabinet, such a compliment is too high, Su Tiancheng doesn't know how to answer, being too modest is equivalent to pride, but it is not appropriate to accept it.

"The teacher's praise makes the students ashamed, the students have always taken the teacher as an example, and they have consciously done not enough, but they have been affirmed by the teacher, and in the future, the students will continue to work hard to live up to the expectations of the teacher."

Zhou Yanru's face was still smiling, but his attitude had changed slightly, if Su Tiancheng had just come in, he thought of solicitation, and what he thought of using power to make Su Tiancheng submit, but now it has changed a little.

Nineteen-year-old Su Tiancheng has such adaptability and wisdom, including that natural maturity, compared to his own time, it is also more than that, I don't know if Lu Dao has any adventures.

"Last year, Kun Yuan took the courtyard to exterminate three hundred liukou, and the emperor rewarded him, so it seems that you are both civil and military, and the emperor is thirsty for talent, and the old man must recommend you."

Su Tiancheng hurriedly bowed, Zhou Yanru said such a thing, he couldn't refuse, and he couldn't answer, his previous performance had already been a little too much, and the so-called excesses were too much.

In the study, I stayed for half an hour, and later, it was mostly Zhou Yanru who spoke, of course, at this time, I didn't talk about the government, it was nothing more than talking about some principles of being a human being, and the issues that need to be paid attention to in the future.

During the conversation, Su Tiancheng tasted it carefully.

Although the conversation was not long, he had a preliminary feeling.

Zhou Yanru, as the first assistant of the cabinet and an executive of the imperial court, is extremely noble, so he doesn't have to be so low-key for himself to try the yuan, and he didn't fully accept Zhou Yanru's olive branch, Zhou Yanru didn't show any special anger.

This may be Zhou Yanru's mood and anger, but a person who is the head of the cabinet and the peak of power, no matter what he thinks in his heart, can show an amiable attitude in front of his descendants, which is equivalent to his juniors, which is not simple.

Leave it hundreds of years from now, don't even think like that.

When leaving the study, Zhou Yanru stood up and personally sent Su Tiancheng to the courtyard in front.

The two are about the same size, Zhou Yanru is slightly shorter, but his body is a lot burly.

Zhou Yanru's move really moved Su Tiancheng a little, and it also taught him a lesson, no matter what position he occupies, he must be a low-key person and do things in a high-profile manner.

Historically, the evaluation of Zhou Yanru is also said to be very good at coordinating and handling relationships, which is originally an advantage, but in the mouths of some people, this has become Zhou Yanru's biggest hypocrisy, because Zhou Yanru has ulterior motives, in order to please the emperor and the power in his hands.

On the way back to the inn, Su Tiancheng thought a lot, he felt that history really needs its own experience and understanding, and partiality is really killing people.
