Xu Wei Xu Wenchang's reputation was so great that other people's reactions to Xu Yuanzuo were taken for granted.

However, Xu Wei's reputation was still suppressed by Xu Jie's aura after all.

As soon as Xu Jie opened his mouth, no one could desert, and everyone listened quietly. This is not only because of the prestige he had when he was Yuanhua, but also because of his temperament due to his academic cultivation.

"Wen Chang is a disciple of Mr. Peng Shan, Yuan Zuo is a disciple of Fushan, Zigai is a disciple of Mr. Longxi, and Lao Fu is a disciple of Shuangjiang Gong. Xu Jie joked.

Everyone laughed: Isn't it? Shuangjiang Longxi is all water, and Pengshanfu Mountain is all mountains.

Xu Yuanzuo smiled before he came back to his senses, and secretly said in his heart: Longxi is Wang Ji's number. Wang Ji learned from Yangming Public School and opened the Zhejiang Central School, so Zhang Yuanchen is really a disciple of the heart of Miao Hong.

It's just that Xu Wei's reputation is too great, but it covers up the aura of his master Ji Benji Pengshan. Thinking about it, Xu Wei only relied on a show of talent to walk the door of the prime minister, and there must be a lot of unknown resources.

Although his own master, Mr. He Xinyin, only taught the reading of the Analects, all the teachers are teachers, not to mention the teachers who teach the secret methods! Xu Yuanzuo naturally would not deny his identity as a hidden disciple.

In this way, it is purely because of the gateway of Wang Xue, so that everyone gathers here?

Xu Yuanzuo still felt a little unfinished in his heart.

Xu Jie said to Xu Yuanzuo again: "Among them, you are the youngest, you have learned the most, the roots are not deep and the branches and leaves have been formed, this is what the old man is most worried about." ”

Xu Yuanzuo was in good spirits.

When he first saw Xu Jie, there was only a golden elephant leg in his eyes.

As he progressed deeper and deeper, Xu Jie's face always shifted between light and darkness.

In the past two days, Xu Yuanzuo was at sea, and he saw the sunrise and the fish jumping, and the waves were endless. There is a faint feeling that the former right and wrong, beauty and ugliness, love and hatred, seem to have faded a lot.

At this moment, Xu Yuanzuo always felt that Xu Jie could break the confusion in his heart for him, and he couldn't help but concentrate. When I heard Xu Jie say that he "has not deep roots but the branches and leaves have become formed", it is really deep in my heart. My worries, fears, and troubles all the time seem to have been answered.

The answer is that he has no roots.

Or rather, his roots are not here.

Even though he can be polite, he always feels like an outsider.

I only heard Xu Jie continue: "This time, Lin Shizhou looked at my thin noodles and brought you to Shaoxing for the exam, and it is probably feasible to enter the school." ”

- It turned out that Lin Dachun really tested himself because of Xu Jie.

Xu Yuanzuo said secretly in his heart.

"I also told Shi Zhou, you are too young, and I want him to block you." Xu Jiedao.

——If you don't block it, you may have to expose your stuffing, how can you get into school if you block it?

Xu Yuanzuo bowed and saluted: "Sun Tzu's knowledge has not yet taken root. It's really inappropriate to venture into the field. ”

Xu Jie asked, "What if he wants you not to take the township test before the weak crown?" ”

Confucianism encompasses both academic and religious aspects.

Academically speaking, as long as the level is high enough, do you care how old I am and how old I am in Jinshi? There is no limit to the age of the exam!

From the point of view of faith, scholars do not want to see good talents and beautiful qualities lose their good years of education because they enter Vanity Fair too early.

If you can have the strength of a middle jinshi in your teens, such a superb talent, why not spend a few more years studying hard and strive to become a generation of Confucians?

This is not a private matter of the prodigy's own future, but a major event of the entire culture and education, thousands of people, and eternal education.

The champion is precious. Hongru is even more expensive.

A champion in three years, where can it be compared to a "king" who only produces one in five hundred years.

Xu Yuanzuo Yile: Is this a condition for Xiucai?

"My grandson wants to be a member. It's nothing more than a walking tour to learn more conveniently. Don't say that the weak crown should not be tested in the countryside before, even if you don't touch the art of making for life, it doesn't hurt. Xu Yuanzuo didn't have any trouble, and opened his mouth to say.

Xu Jie smiled.

Xu Fan almost laughed out loud.

Xu Wei smiled bitterly: "Chongling." ”

Zhang Yuanchen said with a straight face: "Mr. Defushan is really legendary!" ”

Xu Yuanzuo's unintentional sentence exposes his view of being an official - just a resource. If you have control over this resource, why do you need to be in it?

It only needs to be slightly extended. That is: I am not faithful.

Xu Jie had already seen through Xu Yuanzuo's heart.

Xu Fan felt that this was too childish.

Xu Wei saw the arrogance and uninhibition he once had.

Zhang Yuanchen was hit by the Taizhou school without a monarch and the courage of fighting a tiger with his bare hands. The Zhejiang-Central School he studied has always been criticized for tending to be old and Buddha, but it is conceivable that he has always been gentle and deferential.

"I'm afraid you'll deal with it like this." Xu Jie said softly: "If you are misunderstood by the grandmaster, how can you be good?" ”

Xu Yuanzuo frowned slightly.

Confucianism is opposed to seclusion.

If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world. To be alone is to build momentum in times of embarrassment. That is, the meaning of "hidden dragon, don't use it" in "Zhou Yi", and then it is still necessary to help the world. Just like "the road is not good, take the pole to float in the sea" is not to escape from seclusion, but to reopen China, and then break the flood and famine.

As the saying goes, don't tell lies in front of real people, because real people are like mirrors and can reflect nothing. No amount of knowledge can hide the truth of a person's inner thoughts.

"The kid doesn't have a hidden heart, but he is not attached to his career." Xu Yuanzuo explained.

"If you are talented but not a man, either you are a monarch without a way, or you have no father and no king, who are you?" Xu Jie said slowly.

Xu Yuanzuo frowned, I'm afraid this is indeed the consensus of Confucians in this era. He asked, "Father, why can't you find a new way?" ”

"Is there a new way to teach the people to take it as Yao Shun, to carry out the last karma and reach the highest path?" Xu Jie asked rhetorically.

- Hey, that's a good thing to say!

Xu Yuanzuo had a feeling of encountering a bosom friend, but he also knew that Xu Jie was just breaking and summarizing his thoughts, and he was far from agreeing.

Zhang Yuanchen shook his head and said: "The study of Taizhou is too extreme. ”

Even Xu Wei wanted to speak and stopped, obviously not on Xu Yuanzuo's side.

Although Xu Fan is Xu Jie's eldest son, he is indeed talented. But due to his qualifications, his progress in learning is quite slow, and he is not a scholar, and he can only watch the excitement when he is excluded at the moment. It can also be seen from him: knowledge is really a public weapon, and even father and son cannot teach each other privately.

Xu Jieduan took a sip of tea, diverted the topic, and said, "When you see Shizhou tomorrow, I won't speak for you." Today's idle gathering, I will tell two anecdotes about Shizhou, and everyone has the right to joke about it. ”

- Yay! I love hearing gossip the most!

Xu Yuanzuo was happy in his heart, knowing that this was Xu Jie's marking the scope of the exam for him.

As long as you know what kind of person the examiner is, then it is very simple to guess his exam questions, as for the answer, you just need to think about it, if the examiner himself encounters this kind of question, how will he deal with it, and it will naturally come out. (To be continued......)
