Chapter 363: Give You a Reason
"That's it, knowing your mistakes can improve a lot, as long as you remember it in the future." Liu Yao waved his hand casually and said generously. But at this moment, his heart was already happy. At the beginning, he was able to persuade Cai Yong, but now it is not easy to deal with a group of nerds.
"But the state herdsman, the grass people still have a question, I don't know if the state herdsman can answer the grass people?" Dong Lin asked respectfully.
"Ask!" Liu Yao said lightly. Obviously, no, Dong Lin's problem is in his eyes. He is going to convince people today, and solve the problem at one time, so as not to trouble in the future.
Dong Lin sorted out his thoughts for a while, and then asked, "Dare to ask Lord Zhoumu, why in this imperial examination, the martial arts examination, the marching array can be an official, this agriculture can be an official, and this handicraft can also be an official, even if it is astronomy and geography, etc." Why is it that only we, Confucianism, cannot be officials? ”
Liu Yao chuckled twice in his heart, and finally asked the question, and immediately looked up to the sky and glanced at it, and then said, "This person with superior force, just like my Youzhou Huang Zhong Huang Hansheng, can be a general, lead troops to the battlefield, thousands of troops are easy to get, and a general is hard to find." And this person who is good at marching and arranging formations, just like Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao beside me, can give advice to the military advisor and the army, and kill the enemy thousands of miles away. I don't need to explain more about these two. ”
Dong Lin nodded stunnedly, obviously he had no objection to these two points. He has also heard of the names of Huang Zhong and Guo Jia for a long time. With the ability of the two of them, it is naturally no problem. He actually cares about the following few.
Liu Yao looked at Dong Lin's appearance. He smiled and continued to explain, "This person who is proficient in agriculture is just like our agricultural school captain Zaoyi in Youzhou. The tuntian system invented by him alone has made the grain production of our entire Youzhou increase day by day, so that the people of Youzhou now have surplus grain every year, and they have enough food and clothing. You say that he can be an official with his ability? ”
Dong Lin was stunned when he heard this, and nodded a little stupidly. Although he didn't know who this jujube was, if it was really like what Liu Yao said. Their contribution is absolutely huge, even those who are generals can't compare. Such a character. Naturally, he can be an official and benefit the people.
"As for the craftsmen you are talking about, they are like Mo Tian, the director of my research institute in Youzhou. and Ma Jun. The paper and books invented by the two of them have done great things for all the readers in the world. And the equipment that came out of the Youzhou Research Institute was equipped with the soldiers and horses of Youzhou. That's also a big increase in combat power. I think I was flat yellow scarf. In the great battle of exterminating Karasuma, the losses were reduced, and that was a huge credit. Do you think the two of them can be officials? Liu Yao asked rhetorically.
Dong Lin still kept nodding, obviously agreeing with Liu Yao's words. Their group of students are also grateful to Mo Tianma Jun for inventing paper books. If it weren't for them, I'm afraid that if they want to read a book now, it will take a lot of effort, and they may not be able to get it. With the ability of the two of them, they can naturally be officials.
"This learned astronomer. When you are able to gaze at the sky, you reach the depths. Even being able to predict the weather and predict disasters can completely avoid many disasters in this way, and it can also take the lead in wartime and lay the foundation for victory. Can such a person be an official? Liu Yao said lightly.
This Liu Yao is not talking nonsense. But Zhuge Liang, who was mythologized. Ability to predict the weather. In the same way, even an old man who has lived in the area for decades, with their experience, can also observe the sky, just like an old fisherman who often goes to sea, they can always predict the arrival of a storm and choose the best time to go to sea, this is the reason.
Dong Lin continued to nod wildly.
"The one who learns geography can predict the terrain and make the most favorable arrangements for the expedition of the army. I don't need to say more about the importance of the right time and place. With such a skill, can he be an official? ”
Dong Lin still nodded wildly, in the process of Liu Yao saying this, all he Dong Lin could do was nod. The action was about to throw his head out.
"Well, since you agree with all the above things, let me ask you, what kind of ability do you know about Confucianism to be an official, do you rely on poetry or vassal?" Liu Yao looked at Dong Lin's appearance and asked funny.
"Ahh Click! With Dong Lin's exclamation, Dong Lin's head that couldn't stop shaking up and down finally stopped, but the crisp sound of bones seemed to tell how surprised Dong Lin was at this moment.
He had been immersed in Liu Yao's theory before, and before he came back to his senses, Liu Yao's question came, and he didn't have time to react for a while.
After a long time, he reacted and began to think about Liu Yao's question. The industries mentioned by Liu Yao earlier have made great contributions to the development of Youzhou. What can I do? The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't think of it, and cold sweat couldn't stop flowing. I always feel like what I learned in the past is rubbish, and it's useless.
"I ...... that I can teach the people to know etiquette, honor and disgrace, to be sensible, and to learn the ways of the sages. I...... Can I still do it? Dong Lin blushed and said a little confidently, but looking at his intermittent tone, he always felt that his confidence was so ashamed.
"Huh!" Liu Yao chuckled twice and asked funny, "Dong Lin, if you are a refugee now, you have been hungry for several days. Now I have a large loaf in my left hand, and I am injured and have a book of Analects. If it were you, which one would you choose? ”
"This ...... This...... I...... I choose "On ......" Dong Lin remembered that he was sweating profusely, and he kept thinking about which one to choose. It stands to reason that if there was a copy of "Analects", then Dong Lin would definitely rush up and choose him without hesitation. But now that Liu Yao has given restrictions, he is about to starve to death, so what's the use of taking the "Analects", at this time the Analects are not as good as a big cake, at least the big cake can still kill himself.
However, his belief in Confucianism in his heart prompted him to say things against his will, and he wanted to say that he chose the Analects
"Huh?!" Liu Yao looked at Dong Lin's appearance, frowned, and pointed to his left chest, signaling him to speak with his heart.
"Hey!" Dong Lin let out a long sigh, he didn't know what Liu Yao meant, and finally said helplessly, "Lord Zhou Mu, you won, if it is really in that situation, I will definitely choose the big cake." ”
Liu Yao nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "What you think like this is also what the vast majority of the people think." Cang Liao is full of etiquette, and food and clothing are enough to know honor and disgrace. But if you are even worried about eating, drinking, clothing, and sheltering to death, what kind of etiquette do you have to learn, and what honor and disgrace do you understand? ”
"Pedal Pedal Pedal T As soon as Liu Yao's words fell, Dong Lin's face was like ashes, and his body involuntarily took three steps backwards, but fortunately, a few companions behind him supported him, and then he stopped, but he still muttered to himself, "Am I wrong, is it true that everything I have learned in my life is wrong?" ”
Liu Yao didn't say anything more, some things have to be comprehended by themselves to be useful, otherwise it's all useless.
After a long time, Dong Lin came back to his senses, saluted Liu Yao without chaos, and said, "The grass people are rude, and I ask the state pastor to atone for my sins, so I will leave Youzhou and no longer disturb the state pastor." ”
After speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave this Youzhou in despair, and Dong Lin's companions, seeing Dong Lin leave, even if they were unwilling, they still turned around and left with Dong Lin, they didn't want Dong Lin to be so bold and dare to face Liu Yao so directly, and speak so casually.
"Wait a minute!" Liu Yao looked at Dong Lin's back and hurriedly stopped him.
Suddenly, those students were excited in their hearts, and they were scared. One by one, they all thought that Liu Yao wanted to settle accounts after the autumn and trouble them.
"What else does the state pastor command, the grass people must do it?" Dong Lin didn't have such an idea, turned back, and asked respectfully. (To be continued......)
