Chapter 295: The Eighth Eighth
I came back from my uncle's house that day, maybe because the wind blew on the river at night, I didn't feel anything at the time, but I was sleepy, I went home and sent a leave notice to go to bed, and I couldn't get up the next day, and the otaku really couldn't blow the wind! Hung up the water for three days.,It's finally good.,Return to normal updates.,Owe four chapters.,Ming'er began to make up in the case of normal updates-
With this old voice, a young man's surprised voice immediately sounded, "Master Tai, it's your old man, the student still thinks you are in the edict prison ......" Then there was a meal, a little frustrated, and his voice lowered, "The student is now in prison, and he is making a joke about Master Tai." It's really a shame for the teacher and the master. ”
It was Yan Shannong who said in an old voice, he laughed, and then his voice was a little sarcastic, "If you don't know anything, you want to be the first in the world, what?" Do you feel that [if you want to rule the world peacefully, in today's world, no one can do it (Mencius)? You didn't even know that my old man had come out of the Imperial Prison, but you dared to lead a group of scholars in Suzhou to make trouble, saying that he was asking for the people's life. Let me ask you, do you know the price of a stone of rice in the Ryukyu Kingdom? What is the price of one stone of rice in Suzhou? How much does it cost to transport a shipload of rice from the Ryukyus to Suzhou? ”
Fan Yuheng was speechless, he knew that he couldn't even eat white rice, but how to know how much a stone of rice is in the world, these things are naturally the business of his wife Liu, not to mention the price of a stone of rice in the Ryukyu Kingdom, and he has to add freight, how does he know how much material a sea ship has, how many sailors are needed, how much wages each sailor costs, how many days it takes to go back and forth, and how much silver is in total...... Yan Shannong tugged at his beard and asked him lightly, "What?" I don't know? It turned out that I asked Yu Blind. Fan Yuheng has been locked up for so many days, he was already depressed, and at this time, he was hit by Yan Shannong, and he couldn't help but retort: "Master Tai, Qingliu discusses politics, that is the practice of the dynasty, the students don't know what you asked, but the students know that the people of Suzhou Mansion are boiling, and the scholars can't even eat rice......
The obedient official pursed his lips and smiled slightly, Yin Susu listened to it for a while, and also tasted some flavor, and couldn't help frowning slightly, while Yan Shannong next door laughed, "This last sentence is the truth!" Hello guys! In which book did the Master teach you that if you can't eat white rice, you will make trouble? Fan Yuheng said that he ate the old man, his face suddenly turned red, and he wanted to refute it, but he was embarrassed, he was also shameless, and he couldn't say that he didn't eat white rice because he couldn't eat it.
At this time, although the atmosphere of Jiangnan scholars was [ruthless], it had not yet reached the era when the Donglin Party was in power, and he had not learned to brazenly say that [if he is not my fellow Daoist, he will annihilate the party], or to put it politely, he has not been justified to that point.
And Yan Shannong pressed forward step by step, "Do you know, how much silver was sold for the goods that Kyushu Xuanshu brought back overseas?" Do you know how much money the imperial cabinet has to allocate every year? Do you know what the Royal Treasury is in stock? Do you know how much Ningbo, Quanzhou, Guangzhou and other cities buy every year? Do you know what the cabinet elders ate last night? What did the dynasty say this morning? What government affairs were discussed? ”
A series of questions directly blinded Fan Yuheng to ask, and he was speechless, Yan Shannong looked at him for a while, and then sighed: "I don't know anything, shame on Confucianism!" Yu Heng, at the beginning, I thought that you had a spiritual surname among the disciples of Rufang, but now it seems that it is my old man who has lost his eyes! ”
As soon as he said this, Fan Yuheng's face suddenly became hot, and his face was purple and wanted to drip blood, and Yan Shannong took a few steps back and forth, and said: "I am now over seventy years old, and I have traveled all over the south, north, and 613 provinces of the Ming Dynasty all my life. Even if you dare, how can you say this? You don't even know the price of rice in a state capital......"
Fan Yuheng was embarrassed by the old man Yan's words, holding his head and squatting on the ground, Yan Shannong saw him like this, so he didn't say any more, took out a people's newspaper from his arms and threw it in front of Fan Yuheng, then walked to the side and sat down on a chair, the chair was sat on with a butt, and suddenly squeaked for a while, but he was like nothing, the people who had been in and out of Jinyi Guard Prison several times, this was a small house changed from the Yamen of the Procuratorate, for him, the conditions were very good, and he leisurely picked up the tea pot on the table next to him, checked it, and frowned"Is there anyone out there, come in one." ”
Then there was a door knock, and a brocade guard came in from outside, and saw the old man rubbing the tea pot on him, and immediately nodded his head, then turned around and shouted that he sent in a pot of hot tea outside, and personally poured tea for the old man, looking at the tea bowl was a little dirty, frowned, and took out a sweat towel from his arms to wipe left and right, and said while wiping: "This is the head lady of the family just changed today, I haven't used it once, the old man can rest assured." Seeing that Yan Shannong was noncommittal, he picked up the tea pot and poured a cup of hot tea, and carefully handed it to the old man, the old man took it, and then pouted at him.
Old man Yan was drinking hot tea slowly, and then he watched Fan Yuheng squatting on the ground and reading the newspaper.
The obedient official here picked up the teacup and sucked it lightly, next to Yin Susu saw that his face was light and light, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, what did he mean by bringing me here to listen to this?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn my eyes slightly, and looked at him suspiciously.
The obedient official raised his head, just met her eyes, and couldn't help but smile, I have to say, this skin is really the younger brother of Concubine De's mother, and it looks really good, under a smile, just as Xiao Qian said at the beginning, it is as shocking as a dazzling jade, although Yin Susu is also a child of the rivers and lakes, but there are only two of them in the room, so she suddenly blushed, and lowered her head slightly, and then listened to the opposite side whispered: "Miss Yin, don't be impatient, continue to listen." ”
Suddenly, there was a voice in the room next to him, it was Fan Yuheng who understood the newspaper and couldn't help but look up, "Master Tai, what are you...... Advocate for that Zheng Guofan? ”
Old man Yan put down the tea bowl and didn't answer his question, but asked, "Zhuangzi, the eighth one, you carry it and I'll listen to it." ”
Since the founding of Zhu Yuanzhang in the Ming Dynasty, advocating the unity of the three religions, all the powerful readers are intensive reading of the three religion classics, pay attention to [the difference of teaching is like a hundred rivers, the same reason is like a water], the name of the great monk to talk about Zen This kind of thing is not uncommon, it is in the whole environment at that time will happen, Fan Yuheng was taught under Luo Rufang, Mr. Luo Rufang is particular about debate, teachers and students sit and talk about the Tao, but also to read through the hundred schools, so Fan Yuheng is also proficient in Zhuangzi, although a little hesitation, but open his mouth to come, "Luo Thumb pointed out that the surname is ah, And extravagant in virtue...... The villain is martyred, the scholar is martyred, the doctor is martyred, and the saint is martyred......"
He turned his back here, his face was slightly red, thinking that he understood what Master Tai meant, but seeing that Yan Shannong still squinted his eyes and didn't speak, he continued to carry it down, "...... The world is martyred, and the benevolence and righteousness of his martyrdom are commonly known as gentlemen, and the goods and wealth he martyred are commonly known as villains...... Although the thief and the boy are both silver. Yu is ashamed of morality, because the above does not dare to be benevolent and righteous, and the next dare not be a silver secluded trip. ”
Listening to him finish reciting the thumb, Yan Shannong tugged at his head, "It's not bad, I'm proficient in my homework, but it's a pity that I don't know why I know it." ”
Zhuangzi's thought, summed up in a sentence of later generations, Hegel's sentence [existence is reasonable] is quite appropriate, everything in this world has its own fixed laws and principles, you don't take your moral criterion to trick me, what good people do may not be right, and what bad people do may not be wrong. Especially in this one, the fragments can simply be put on the heads of the Ming literati, talking about benevolence and righteousness, flaunting their morality to sell their fame and reputation, advocating and advocating unrealistic French styles, putting their minds on [Jianbai] [similarities and differences], and gaining reputation with empty words...... All of these are crooked ways.
Yan Shannong casually mentioned a few of the sentences, which probably meant the above, the old man has been lecturing for decades, and one mouth can really live the dead, and Fan Yuheng's face was red, and he bowed his head and said nothing.
"Lao Zhuang said that it is not to say that he sees the other, but he sees it, what is the difference between this and the famous religion that I say that I am three provinces and my body? It's easy to know others, but it's hard to know yourself. Leniency and self-discipline, strictness and discipline, is this true Confucianism? Yan Shannong said, his eyes shimmering, staring at Fan Yuheng tightly, Fan Yuheng was ashamed in his heart, and fell to his knees with a pop, "Master Tai, student...... Student ......"
"Then Zheng Guofan's method may not be right, but you scholars are making trouble, is the method right?" Yan Shannong did not stop there, and continued: "I often say that all people are created equal, and the way of the sage is used by the people, although you Fan Yuheng was born in a poor family, then Zheng Guofan is now your uncle, but your soul should be equal, but what I see is that you are willing to fall, for you to eat white rice for yourself, you have to let the entire Suzhou Mansion and even Jiangnan turmoil to satisfy your selfish desires, the party is the same as the other, you say, what qualifications do you have to read the sage book?" ”
Fan Yuheng trembled all over, his face turned pale, and he trembled his lips and muttered, "Student...... Wrong. ”
Old man Yan scolded Fan Yuheng fiercely, then turned around and sat down, took a sip of the tea bowl, smacked his lips, and said, "Okay, get up!" My old man didn't come here specifically to scold you, that Zheng Guofan's fetal hair has not faded and the smell has not dried, but in the end he made money for the imperial court, do you know how much silver the imperial court spent last year when the Yellow River flooded and millions of people were displaced? The silver he earned was enough to save tens of millions of people, and the so-called saints were unkind and used all things as dogs......"
The meaning of this sentence is not as literal as the word, but that heaven and earth are ruthless, and saints are unkind, just like a straight tree, which human beings call a pillar, a tree with a crooked neck, and human beings are tired of cutting it when they use it as firewood, but in the eyes of heaven and earth, they are just trees, and there is nothing good or bad.
However, when Fan Yuheng and Yin Susu next door heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised, this inevitably raised Zheng Guofan too high? Sage?
Fan Yuheng couldn't help but look up at Yan Shannong, while Yin Susu next door looked at the good official in astonishment, the good official was a little embarrassed on his face, rubbed his nose, scratched his head, and thought to himself, this old man Yan was shocked when he spoke. Yin Susu looked at him restlessly scratching his ears and cheeks, and couldn't help but smile, but his heart still sank, it seems that this time the Suzhou Mansion scholars are making trouble, and I am afraid that it will turn a big thing into a small matter.
Sure enough, Yan Shannong next door continued: "Yuheng! I still say the same thing, the way of a saint is used by the people, if one day, you can benefit all the people in the world, you are also a saint. This turmoil in Suzhou Mansion, you also have a huge role, however, my old man still has this little face, after a while, you will go out with me, pick up those who have some backbone and some ability, and slowly say to them, next year, the Empress Dowager Cisheng's birthday, you will definitely open Enke, you will take these people to Beijing to catch the exam, if there is no mistake, this time next year, Zheng Guofan's subordinates will be wantonly employed. ”
Fan Yuheng was first happy in his heart, after all, people will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and he was always happy when he heard that he could release it like this without any relevance, but when he heard the following words, he was immediately surprised, especially when he heard that Zheng Guofan was employing people at this time next year, he was really shocked to lose his eyes, and there seems to be no such precedent in the two hundred years of the dynasty? A relative uncle wants to use two Jinshi, and there is more than one, is it difficult?
Seeing his strange face, Yan Shannong smiled, "People who have earned millions of taels of silver for the imperial court in a year, no matter how the imperial court uses it, it is not too much, you!" It's too rigid, too little experience, and a lot of things, I can't see through it! Don't talk about it, just follow me! You should think about it carefully, which of the scholars who made trouble this time are willing to be used, and which ones can be used, and as for those who are indiscriminately bitten and have no backbone, let them go. ”
Fan Yuheng followed behind Yan Shannong and asked cautiously, "Master Tai, what ...... What will happen to the rest of the scholars? Yan Shannong was not angry, "Do you think Hai Rui Haigang Peak is so easy to fool?" What's more, this time, there is also Cheng Shensi, the envoy of the Zhejiang Education Division, in Suzhou, how can he scare people if he does not get rid of the fame of a group of people. ”
Hearing this, Fan Yuheng's heart shrank, but anyone who reads books and hears that he has lost his fame, this is the same as abolishing martial arts in martial arts novels, and it is probably worse than death.
"Master Tai, can people really be born equal?" Fan Yuheng was a little discouraged, Yan Shannong stopped and turned to look at him, and said lightly: "I said, in terms of soul, there is no difference between you and that Zheng Guofan. After speaking, he turned around and strode out of the door, if Fan Yuheng couldn't even figure this out, then he was not qualified to be his apprentice and grandson of Yan Shannong.
Fan Yuheng was stunned for a while, gritted his teeth, and said in his heart that Zheng Guofan is only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he can also benefit the world, is it possible that I Fan Yuheng can't do it? At that moment, his face was resolute, and he chased after him in great strides, "Master Tai......"
Here Yin Susu seemed to have a smile on his face, "The folk girl wants to congratulate the Governor of Dadu and congratulate the Governor of Dadu, in a blink of an eye, I am afraid that hundreds of scholars will soon be willing to work, and as soon as Enke opens tomorrow, there may be countless Jinshi masters who will bow down at the feet of the Governor of Dadu." At this time, I realized that the feelings of the turmoil in Suzhou Mansion this time, people are calculating, think about it carefully, and suddenly admire, this has attracted a group, hit a group, and it is really a veteran of the deep eunuch journey! Thinking about it, behind Zheng Guofan, there are still many people who help him with advice, such as the old gentleman next door, I am afraid that he is also a well-known figure in the world!
Thinking of this, and then think about their own Luo Sect and Cao Gang, most of those people are vulgar, even if there are some people like Li Nan, who are willing to use their brains to think about everything, but if they really compare with this Zheng Guofan's subordinates, they will suddenly be overshadowed, this is simply incomparable! For a while, my heart was cold.
