Fan Zhongyan continued to smile and said, "Tell me why." ”

Some people can move people, but this simple middle-aged man, Sima Guang was speechless after eating. Zheng Lang said: "Sima Sanlang, you say." ”

Encourage him to say.

It is a face-to-face communication opportunity, and in the face of the sublimated Fan Zhongyan, it can also better cultivate the virtue of several teenagers.

"Fan Tianzhang, the death of Empress Guo is exactly why she mentioned the registration of hundreds of officials, why dare to mention it, there is a behind-the-scenes story, but your best support also has a relationship, this is one of her battles. If she didn't propose to be registered as a hundred officials and didn't covet the queen's position, would she suffer misfortune? ”

Again.

Fan Zhongyan said: "Sima Sanlang, we are not here to interfere in His Majesty's harem, it is etiquette. ”

Guo's is not important, what is important is feudal etiquette, and this is an important basis for maintaining the existence of the feudal state.

Sima Guang thought for a moment, but couldn't answer. Wang Anshi said: "But Fan Tianzhang, is the etiquette and law important, or is the redundant soldiers and redundant officials of the country important?" Or let you get your wish and let Queen Guo start again, what will happen to the country's shortcomings? ”

"Wang Sanlang, what you said is too utilitarian. The country's finances are important, and etiquette and morality are equally important. Qi Huan used the pipe to govern Qi, the country of Qi was rich, the people were safe, and the army was prosperous, but as soon as the pipe died, Yi Ya, Erection Diao and other [***] chaos, Qi Huan Gong was actually starved to death. It is the neglect of the importance of rituals. Not only Qi, but also the late Tang Dynasty, the monarch is not the king, the minister is not the minister, the eunuchs are in rebellion, and the feudal towns are divided, so there are five generations of disasters. ”

"Taught, no wonder Dr. Zheng has spoken of virtue many times, saying that virtue and benevolence and holiness are the foundation of Confucianism, and profit and righteousness and king are the temperance of Confucianism." Wang Anshi arched his hand.

"But I was wrong too."

"Please." Wang Anshi and Sima Guang asked curiously.

Lu Gongzhu has always been ashamed and can't say it, no matter what Fan Zhongyan did right or wrong, his father must have done wrong, such as the teacher's hypothesis, and the inside story, but his father must have participated in the murder of Queen Guo. That's the queen, whether it's the queen now or not, it's also the former queen, and in order to maintain his status, his father said he would do it.

How?

Could it be that the right is five stones, addicted to food, and my father can't do without it?

Medium!

"Your Majesty, how can you be like Empress Dowager Liu?"

"Almost," the two teenagers replied in unison.

According to the teacher's analysis, at least now His Majesty can only be about the same as Liu E, and even the ability to control the minister is not enough.

Fan Zhongyan was dumbfounded, yes, didn't argue about this, and said: "How is Lu Xianggong like Ding? ”

"It's not as good as that." In this regard, the two young people had similar thoughts to Fan Zhongyan at this time, Ding Wei in his later years did whatever he wanted, Kou Zhun, Wang Qinruo, Li Di and other famous ministers were like grass shoes, and Lu Yijian was far from reaching this point.

"So I'm going to be too extreme."

"Taught," the two young men gave up their hands again. invariably glanced at each other, looked at Fan Zhongyan, and then looked at Zheng Lang, and they could find many things in common, such as cleanliness, such as indifference to status, fame and fortune, such as concern for the country, and for example, knowing that mistakes can be changed.

With virtue alone, it is ten times better than Lu Yijian, and there are also a hundred times.

Zheng Lang sighed, he saw that Fan Zhongyan was detransforming, this spiritual journey would make him transform from a person to a saint, only the bad ones, lost a bunch of messes, it was his dispute with Lu Yijian that caused a deep chasm in the court since then. I don't know which of the gains and losses is more important, so I said, "Fan Tianzhang, let me play a song for you." ”

"Okay."

It's still a song "White Snow".

Whoever can listen to this song is the only one in the world.

"The skills have grown, Zheng Zhizhou."

"Where to grow, the time is too short, if there are no other changes in the court, maybe after next autumn, I can spare some time to do what I like."

Fan Zhongyan laughed, he knew what Zheng Lang liked.

The sound of the oars was sound, and the ship returned to Taiping Prefecture.

Cui Xian personally made tea for Fan Zhongyan, and some people, Cui Xian didn't dare to take the shelf.

Fan Zhongyan said: "I came here and wanted to learn from your strengths." ”

"Don't dare, please ask."

For the past few days, Fan Zhongyan has been watching and listening, such as Confucian wisdom, which is listening at the beginning, then knowing, and then evolving into wisdom. One by one, express the doubts in your heart, including sugar cane.

"Sugar cane is a helpless move, I took out some things, and used this thing, together with the harvest after the autumn, and some other conveniences, to make a price, set up a workshop, valued at two million yuan, the court owned forty percent, and the other sixty percent to some large households. That's about it. ”

"Two million, what is it?" Fan Zhongyan said in surprise. I finally understood how the money and goods came from, and why those big families took the initiative to donate the land.

"I don't want to say either," Zheng Lang was still unhappy when he mentioned this matter, he was not disgusted with the "joint venture", the proportion of the imperial court was for the benefit of the imperial court, and the proportion of private individuals was to increase vitality. If all of it is handed over to private management, the court will not be profitable, and it will be very dull if it is all handed over to the court. This is a new attempt.

But in any case, if the truth gets out, there will be some people who can make excuses, after all, it will affect the production of food.

I didn't want to say it, so I said: "I wrote a book with Sima Saburo and them, and it just so happened that you were here, please enjoy it." ”

Fan Zhongyan is not only virtuous, but also talented, he is one of the initiators of Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty in history. Just communicate with him. As he spoke, he took out some pamphlets, which were his Neo-Confucianism.

The three articles of the mean, the upper, middle and lower, are the general outline. The two articles on Yi are not about Yi, but about the golden mean in the Book of Changes. Three articles on politics, some of them are about history, such as the three laws of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang went against the law and ruled the country, and some pointed to the shortcomings of the Song Dynasty, but in order to be less controversial, when it comes to the part of the Song Dynasty, the words are a little vague. Three articles on seeking people, talking about how to be a man. Three articles on how to do things. Deli two articles, the adjustment of virtue and profit. The three articles in Taipingzhou, mainly written by four students, are mainly based on the case of Zheng Lang in Taiping Prefecture, talking about how Zheng Lang reconciles the contradictions of various people, and Zheng Lang has made some revisions. There are three answers in Taipingzhou, which are five dialogues between master and apprentice.

There are a total of twenty-two articles, which systematically tell about Zheng Lang's moderation.

But it is not over yet, and there are several articles on the three divisions of Confucianism, which further supplement the middle mean, and these twenty-two articles must also be revised.

Fan Zhongyan looked at the manuscript that was 10,000 words long, and pondered for a long time, which reminded him of Wang Zeng's words, and said after a long time: "Good book." ”

"Books may not be good, I just look at the sky through the bamboo tube."

"What bamboo tube looks at the sky?" Fan Chunyou asked.

"If you only see a small piece of the sky, then dare you say that what I write is the truth?"

hit Fan Zhongyan's heart again, who dares to say that what he wants to do must be right?

Fan Chunyou asked again: "Then how is Dingjiazhuang haunted?" ”

Originally, Zheng Lang didn't want to answer, but when he saw the corner of Li's mouth on the side, he couldn't bear it, so he said, "I can say it, but you don't want to say it to outsiders." ”

"Whoa."

Zheng Lang was happy, and he was puzzled in his heart, the Li family is not very old, it seems that he is only thirty years old, why did he get sick and die after arriving in Raozhou? Not to mention the weather, Fan Zhongyan is in Xinghua for a while, Suzhou for a while, and it is also in the south, and the weather is not much better than Raozhou.

I couldn't figure it out, and I couldn't do anything about it, so I said: "It's actually very simple, that day I received a report from Ding's wife, and asked me to examine the body again. By the time I examined it, there were corpse spots on the corpse, and I could see the traces of Ding Laosan being pressed on the copper coin in the water. But for the sake of the following arrangement, I will not say anything. Then I made some small arrangements on the boat, and went to see it again in the evening, and through conversation, I attracted the villagers together. ”

Fan Chunyou nodded. This is relatively easy to understand, Zheng Lang is very prestigious in Taiping Prefecture, it is difficult to get them in the village, the people will be curious, and the spirit shed is not far behind, so it is not necessary to send people to guard the spirit in front of the shed at all times.

"But I did it with a purpose. All the villagers were listening to my question, and the other side sent someone to infiltrate the shed. During the daytime autopsy, the coffin nails were removed, the lid of the coffin was uncovered, the body was carried away, and a hole was drilled from the inside to ventilate, and a living person got into it. Then I went back, and in the middle of the night, the living made some terrible noises inside, such as scratching the wall of the coffin with their fingernails, or clasping the coffin board with their hands. Scare away the four people who are guarding the spirit. This one is easier to arrange, and the next one is a little harder, which is the shouting. ”

"Exactly."

"The Confucianism that the master said can be summed up in eight words, learning from things, inner sage and outer king. Everything must be known, only by knowing can we know how to do it, and if we want to know, we must learn to learn to do things. Zheng Lang said. We are not talking about science, but about Confucianism, which the Master taught me.

Fan Zhongyan and Li looked at each other and smiled, which reminded them of the strange things in the Monogatory.

"It was spring and autumn at that time, why was the spring and autumn foggy heavy?"

"I don't know."

"The reason is also very simple, in spring and autumn, the day is hot, the night is cold, the temperature contrast is large, the water vapor of rivers and lakes is easy to be evaporated during the day, and condensed at night, it becomes fog."

Fan Chunyou seems to understand whether he understands or not.

didn't care, and continued to say: "The south of Dingjiazhuang was not encircled at that time, it was a big lake, and the fog on the lake was heavier. And it is surrounded by high ground and some slopes, forming a low basin shape. You can verify this later, for example, there are many foggy nights in Bashu. Raozhou also has some similar river valley terrain, and the more terrain it is, the more intense the night fog becomes. This terrain, this seasonality, gives me a chance. I had someone make a loudspeaker-like amplification tool, take it to the top of the big locust tree on the north side of the shed, put my mouth at the bottom of the horn, keep all the sound flowing into the horn, and the horn is facing the air, and then simulate some sounds. The sound rushed to the fog of the lake to the south, forming a sound barrier, and some of them bounced back one after another. In this way, it was as if there was nothing in the air, but there were many terrible voices flowing. It was the first day, and one of my servants did it, and it was a bit hasty. ”

"I see."

"It's not difficult to uncover, such as the Physics Courtyard, where there are some artifacts that are more complicated than this principle. Then I went to the village to see, replaced the living people, plugged the hole with a soft plug, repainted with ink paint, subtle differences, the people were afraid, no one would notice, and then replaced the body of Ding Laosan. The next night, an artist with good ventriloquist was invited from Jiangning and went up the tree. The He brothers were extremely vicious, and they were afraid that they would not confess, so they made some arrangements. For example, when I stood in front of the spirit shed, the scene was weird, and no one dared to go over, which gave me more opportunities with Qingxu. In fact, there is a wire bracket in my robe, and I face the coffin, my back to the crowd, and I quietly make the bracket with my hands, so the robe is windless and automatic. As for those two lanterns, it's too easy. There is a thread behind them that pulls up the tree, and when people pull the thread between the leafy leaves of the tree, the lantern will sway desperately. After the crowd leaves, the line is untied, and no one else can notice it. The next ones are also very difficult, that is, those heavenly talismans. The night before I did some experiments. The next day, Qingxu was released. ”

"Why did it ascend to heaven?"

"The relationship between hot and cold, it is made during the day, the swim bladder is very thin, and a small square box is supported with very thin bamboo strips, which looks like a small charm from a distance, and it is actually a box up close, and it is put in the arms to cover the heat. The air inside will be lighter than the air outside, but it is not enough to hold it up, and there is just some light wind, and when the wind blows, the weight is already light, and one by one it spins up the sky, and rises very high, and finally disappears from everyone's sight. ”

"I see?"

"What do you think? Whether it is the magic of the two religions, or the illusion of the artist, some are practiced skills, such as going up the knife mountain and going down to the sea of fire, not only learning, but also proficiency, otherwise you know the principle, and you will inevitably be injured if you go to perform by yourself. Others are purely academic. There is nothing wrong with learning, but what is wrong is pretending to be a ghost. Another example is the Gu art in the south, which is very evil in the world, saying that it is something that allows insects to bite people. That's too much. However, some Gu cultivators will use all kinds of poisons to prepare poisons, and they are very good at poisoning, standing in the wind with powder, and the suckers are poisoned. Quietly put on the sweat towel clothes, and the attached person is poisoned. The underrider is directly put into the water or food, and the eater is poisoned. So the more it spreads, the more mysterious it becomes. There is also witchcraft. Some witchcraft is poison when it harms people, and it is good medicine to save people, so there are all kinds of strange rumors. Zheng Lang said.

But it's best not to mess with these people, some of them are very clever in poisoning, and they are really hard to prevent.

He also said, "Speaking of which, it is still the Master's knowledge of things." ”

I sighed in my heart, Master, although I am repairing your book, I am also good to you, and I will soon praise you as a god.

Li suddenly said: "Zheng Zhizhou, the concubine has something to ask for. ”

"Mrs. Li, don't dare."

"I want to entrust my eldest and second sons to you," Lee said expectantly. She is very supportive of her husband, but her husband's surname is easy to offend people, and it is inevitable to run around, and several children will also suffer. Just now, I saw Wang Anshi and Sima Guang asking questions and answering with their husbands, and they asked a lot of questions, and the answers were very meaningful, and I felt a little envious in my heart. Although he is reluctant, for the sake of his son's smooth growth, look at Zheng Jiazi's admiration for her husband, and ask for a look. If you stay, it's definitely better than being by your side, a selfless and crazy husband.

Fan Zhongyan was silent.

For example, the eldest son, who was busy with government affairs and had no time to teach, supported Hu Ying to run a state school in Suzhou, so he entrusted his eldest son to study under Hu Ming. Hu Ying has some knowledge, but he will not teach like Zheng Lang, teach officials to govern, and teach to be a man. And the eldest son and second son are all very smart, Lu Yijian is proud of his three sons, and his sons are also proud of him. In terms of qualifications, his two sons will not be much worse than Lu Yijian's three sons.

"This ......" Zheng Lang looked at Fan Da and Fan Er, who were spitting.

I'm not a nursery.

Cui Xian tugged at him.

Zheng Lang looked at Cui Xian, and Cui Xian nodded fiercely. Agree, official, you accept Lu Yijian's son as a student, some people have said that you and Lu Yijian are on the same path, and Sima Guang and Wang Anshi can't prove anything. Accept Fan Zhongyan's two sons as students, and Qingchen will not be able to attack you again.

Zheng Lang was still very hesitant.

Fan Zhongyan said: "In the future, the Song Dynasty will count on ...... If not, the two sons will be entrusted to you. ”

That's what he said on the face, but in fact it's not, this time the struggle also made him realize a problem, he really needs strength, but this power is not Ouyang Xiu them, but a large number of people who can do great things. You can't expect Zheng Lang to do anything now, let's make a small knock on the ground. But what about twenty years from now?

"Okay," Zheng Lang replied.

After answering, I felt a relative, after these teenagers grew up, they were all important talents in the future of the Song Dynasty, what did they become? I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Could it be that the Zheng family will be the sixth prime minister in the future?

Fan Zhongyan stayed for another two days and talked in detail. Preparing to bring some good experience to Raozhou, he left Taiping Prefecture, Zheng Lang kept sending him, sent him to Heishazhou, and took Fan Zhongyan to take a look at the seeds, Fan Zhongyan should also be worth sending him so far.

As for the other people, what Lu Yijian, what Ouyang Xiu, that is Fuyun, talking about power and conspiracy, talking about learning, admiration, but I can see how to behave.

On the sandbar, the rice grew very well, and Ouyang Xiu said: "They are good crops." ”

Zheng Lang shook his head: "No, it grows well, it is full of fertilizer, and its own soil is good, and it will not be the case immediately when it is transferred to the field." There is an evolutionary process, though, and this is the second year, which is slightly better than last year's. One generation does not work for two generations, and two generations does not work for three generations. In a decade, the seeds will be very impressive. ”

There is an analogy, Zhao Kuangyin's brothers are really not very good-looking, with big flat faces and black faces, and the same is true for Song Zhenzong, but when it comes to Zhao Zhen, he has become very considerable, a quiet and quiet beautiful man.

Men are ugly, women are beautiful, one generation is indisputable, the second generation is okay, the second generation is not clean, and the third generation is successful?

He also said: "The master said that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, for example, this year's Taiping Prefecture, it seems that nothing happens, but once the truth of the matter is revealed, I don't know what the ministers in the court think." Ben didn't need it, it was done too quickly. I think of it in my heart, and I often think about it. I did what I did in three years. In fact, it's just three years, and it may be what other people have done in thirty years. ”

He shook his head uncontrollably.

Fortunately, future generations provide countless experiences, otherwise it would be a big deal if it is so strong.

After talking for a while, Fan Zhongyan and his wife said a few words to their son and got on the boat.

The boat went farther and farther away, disappearing into the sky, the white clouds in the sky were light, the blue sky was blue like a jewel, so clean.

…… One by one, the suns drove out of the court, and it was quiet.

Zhao Zhen was also worried in his heart, he didn't know what he was doing right or wrong, Zheng Langxiu's moderation was not transmitted, otherwise he could give him a guide, because it was written how to do it in this situation. There must be a direct minister, and the impeachment of the direct minister is a good thing. It cannot be denied that with their supervision, officials are more self-disciplined.

But as Yu Jing said, listen to the listen, listen to the side of the light, partial belief is dark, you can't let the court become a fan hall, nor can you let the court become a Lu hall. Why sit back and watch Lu Yijian expel all the suns, then nothing happens?

It's you Zhao Zhen, who has a benevolent heart of order, and if you change someone else, something will happen soon!

That's it, seeing this, Lu Yijian gradually slipped to a bad place.

Until the king had a shot!

There is a process of neutralization and adjustment, so that different voices are maintained in the court, mutual supervision is supervised, and the people choose for themselves. Let the ministers supervise, the ministers do things, and each one is in place, and the court will be rationalized. is very simple, and there are more complex and clever ways to control people, which is not something that Zhao Zhen can control now. It's Liu E who did a good job, but the best thing to do is not Liu E, but Li Shimin, these heroes.

The book has not yet come out, and even if it comes out, with Zheng Lang's current status, there may not be many people who respect it.

But Zhao Zhen suddenly saw the word Fadu written by Zheng Lang one day, and thought that Jiangnan was about to reach the autumn harvest, do you want to go over and take a look?

After thinking about it, they all said that Gao Ruone was not good, so they asked Gao Ruone and Wang Zhaoming to go to Jiangnan to comfort him. Then ask Wang Zhaoming to see what Zheng Lang's attitude towards Gao Ruone.

Autumn is coming, will Jiangnan give me a joy?

Dare to love Zheng Lang let him develop a bad dependence, and when he is in a bad mood, look for Zheng Lang and adjust his mood
