Today is a grand event for these scholars to leave a name and glory for their ancestors, but the emperor found a woman to discuss with them, and they have to figure out the tricks in the meantime. If you want to become a jinshi with the title of the gold list, you must not only be quick and knowledgeable, but also know how to cater to the will of the examiner, and consider the taste of the examiner when making the examination paper, and consider the emperor's meaning in today's discussion.

The emperor invited a tricky woman to come, obviously not only to save their face, but also for the main purpose of taking the school examination. If what you say well today, it must be able to win the emperor's appreciation and have a bright future in the future, but if you don't say it well, you will be like Liao Zhishan in public.

Of course, there are also those who are not convinced, because today's topic is not difficult for them, and the gentleman is not afraid of being exposed if he sits upright, but it is precisely these showy people who either have unclean butts or problems with language logic, and they can always be refuted by Qu Ning or with some high arguments.

On "a gentleman is talented", Qu Ning can find out the model of a gentleman who has no talent in ancient times, and criticizes those who believe that they are talented, and uses examples to list their fame and reputation; On "a gentleman is righteous", Qu Ning refuted it with a positive argument, believing that a gentleman can be righteous, but righteousness cannot come first, and he must be under the three outlines and five constants.

Liu Yu thought that Qu Ning could cite extreme examples, but Qu Ning thought that "a gentleman has no faith and is also a believer", that is, no faith is relative, and no faith in some people is faith in others. In fact, the reason is very simple, who wouldn't tell a lie these days? Is it true that praising people comes from the heart? Gentlemen are informal.

In fact, the most deflated thing about these jinshi is not because the argument does not make sense, but because they have a very easy argument, but they are dumbfounded by a little woman. Qu Ning's knowledge is profound, and the scope of knowledge is extremely wide, and the knowledge of these Jinshi who study poetry and literature all day long for the imperial examination is not as good as her.

The scene of the tongue battle was exciting, and Liu Yu enjoyed watching it from the sidelines. However, he also thought of a question, in fact, with the ability of these jinshi, it is not difficult to refute Qu Ning together, everything has two sides, Qu Ning only picks one end of things to misinterpret, and it is rare for one side of the debate to admit defeat so quickly, and it is also a large number of people. This shows that many of them are hiding their strength, pretending to be talentless.

"Brother Han, have you noticed that some of them are obviously very disdainful, but they don't speak." Liu Yu said to Han Sheng, "These people should be pretending to be low-key, not showing the mountains and not revealing the water, and they are most likely to be the spies of King Huai." ”

Han Sheng also paid attention to it, nodded and said, "What Junior Brother Liu said is reasonable, we should focus on checking them when we go back." ”

Han Sheng held a booklet in his hand, picked up the pen and ticked a few people, and the sense of being in charge of intelligence was also relatively keen, and he could find clues from the words and deeds of these people. Liu Yu saw that he had hooked a lot of people, and said that those secret agents would be busy next.

The study is coming to an end, Liu Yu and Han Sheng are already bystanders, and they should also go down at this time, so that the emperor can talk to these Jinshi. As soon as Liu Yu turned around, he heard Qu Ning's voice: "That is the husband of General Xu, the female marshal of the army?" ”

was named in front of everyone, or in the name of his wife, Liu Yudeng felt that he couldn't hold his face. The heart said that this Qu Ning is also tricky enough, and a sentence can make people feel a kind of impulse to go crazy, and the emperor didn't choose the wrong person to come to her to study with these Jinshi.

The emperor had actually seen Liu Yu and Han Sheng on the side a long time ago, but at this time, he was broken by Qu Ning's words, and Liu Yu became the target of public criticism. Liu Yu could only salute the emperor, and the emperor smiled and made a gesture to let him step back.

Liu Yue wanted to leave, but Qu Ning obviously wanted to hold on to him, and continued: "I heard that General Xu's husband abandoned literature and followed martial arts, and he is quite talented, I don't know what he thinks about today's theory?" ”

Qu Ning is clearly looking at him unpleasantly and wants to ridicule him in public, more than 100 jinshi have suffered, and common sense deduces that no matter how high his talent is, he can't follow up with the scholar's knowledge. Liu Yu didn't want to answer, but the emperor smiled and said: "Wenyan, it's rare that you are also the commander of the Imperial Forest Army on the day when the Wild Goose Pagoda is famous, and this grand event, it is better to talk about it, I will not blame you if I don't say it well." ”

When the emperor said this, he was actually looking for Liu Yu to go down the stairs. The commander of the Imperial Forest Army, that is, the military general, and a close minister of the emperor. As a general, it doesn't matter if you don't say it well, after all, it's not to stand up in the court with talent, but if it's good, it's to give the emperor a long face, and the emperor's close ministers are rare talents, which shows that the emperor has a good eye for talent.

But Liu Yue knows that this argument is not easy to say, the gentleman's benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith have basically been said by those Jinshi, this can be refuted, can it be said that he is a gentleman and I take all the advantages of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom?

The emperor had a decree for him to say, and he couldn't help but say it. Why did Qu Ning look at him unpleasantly, firstly, he may have coveted Xu Xuanzhu, of course, this was Liu Yu's initial impression, and the most important thing was that he might have seen that he had been to the Qinglou, that is, he had discovered his indiscretions. No matter what he said, as long as Qu Ning talked about it, it would leave a bad impression in the eyes of the emperor and the scholars. The losing game is clearly laid out.

But today, Liu Yu summed up from Qu Ning's argument that things often have two sides, and what is bad can also become good.

"In the next opinion, a gentleman should be ......" Liu Yu paused intentionally, and saw that everyone was interested in mentioning it, before he came up with his own arguments, "...... Lascivious. ”

"Huh?"

One sentence caused an uproar in the audience.

The discourse presided over by the Son of Heaven openly stated the fallacy of "a gentleman should be lustful", and without Qu Ning, even those Jinshi who consciously "loyal to the monarch and patriotic" could argue that he was incomplete.

Liu Yu also understands this principle, he has no way, since Qu Ning discovered his indiscretion, he can only do the opposite, saying that his bad deeds are "the behavior of a gentleman".

The emperor was not angry, but was very curious, and asked with a smile: "Wen Yan, can you talk about it, why do you say that 'a gentleman should be lustful'?" ”

Liu Yu also knew that this argument was not easy to prove, and his expression was still calm: "I have heard an ancient poem in Xia, and its cloud, 'Guan Guan Ju Dove, is in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman. Jagged wattles, left and right flowing. My Fair Lady, I covet it'. The ancients took the lady as what they wanted, and took it as a gentleman, and thought that everyone has a heart for beauty, if there is no lustful heart, how can they be called a gentleman? ”

There is no poetry in this world, Liu Yu suddenly said a sentence of "ancient poetry", and the artistic conception is quite elegant, so that the scholars can't help but imagine the beautiful scene of the gentleman asking for a lady on the bank of the river.

Qu Ning said in an unkind tone: "So you have a beautiful wife and concubine and go out to look for flowers and ask willows?" ”

Maybe Qu Ning was too angry and excited, and there was a slight body language in his expression, and he accidentally knocked down the screen in front of him, revealing her appearance of an Arab woman covering her face with a black veil. Or it would be more appropriate to describe it as stunned.

Liu Yu smiled: "Lustful people should have a heart for beauty." If you have the dignity of a young lady, even on the bank of the river, you will definitely not have any intentions. Please rest assured Miss Qu. ”

Liu Yu's words were obviously provocative, driving out the anger in Qu Ning's heart, and Qu Ning immediately pointed out, "You!" He stood up suddenly, the gauze on his head was unstable and almost fell off, and the outstretched hand immediately retracted to stabilize the turban. Angry, Qu Ning didn't remember to talk about learning, and instead complained to the emperor: "Your Majesty, he ......"

The emperor smiled and waved his hand, and said to Liu Yu: "Wen Yan, you are not a good person, how can you count a lady in public?" ”

Liu Yu hurriedly explained: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that Miss Qu may have misunderstood, and the minister does not mean that Miss Qu is ugly and dare not ask, but that she is covered with black veil, and if she wants to, she must wait until she takes the black veil away to see it clearly." When you are a gentleman, you must not only love beauty, but also have the heart of careful verification. ”
