Chapter 60 Ideological Enlightenment

The group gradually drifted away, and at the end of the plum garden, there was the Yucheng study.

As soon as he approached the study, a man's clear and passionate voice came, as if he was arguing with others about something. Occasionally, there will be praise or criticism from the old gentleman.

After hearing this, Wu Shiyan couldn't help but proudly show off to everyone: "My group of children are so hard that they refuse to give up their studies even during the Chinese New Year. Listening to how lively their arguments were, it seems that Mr. Nguyen's class must have been very interesting today. Would you like to go in and listen to it? ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to listen to the class, Wu Mu immediately cried with a sad face: "Uncle, I finally took a two-day break for the Chinese New Year, and you forced me to enter the hall again!" ”

"You!" Wu Shiyan scolded with a smile: "Asking you to study, I'm afraid it's more difficult than ascending to the sky!" ”

"Hey, I hear them arguing about whether it is better to study and enter the government to assist the king in his ambitions, or to be free and bold and be a charlatan. This topic is fresh, uncle, let's go in and listen! Wu Pei was very interested in this and immediately agreed to Wu Shiyan's proposal.

As soon as Jin Shu heard it, this topic was just right for Shen Zhizhang!

So she immediately agreed: "Uncle, I also want to go in and listen." This old Mr. Ruan and my Taifu used to be classmates, and the Taifu mentioned him many times during class, so it's a rare opportunity today, why don't we go and listen to it? ”

"Okay, then let's go to the back and see how they argue!" Wu Shiyan made a decision and led everyone to quietly enter the school through the back door.

The scale of Yucheng's study is not large, a bright room, surrounded by bookshelves. There are more than a dozen tables neatly arranged in the middle, all of which are also full of books.

The scholars in it are all about seventeen or eighteen years old, the oldest is no more than twenty years old, and the youngest may only be eleven or twelve years old. The old gentleman sat at the front, with a white beard and a kind face, and in the middle of the room, two teenagers, one tall and one short, were fiercely arguing, and they were talking impassionedly, and everyone listened to them with relish, so that no one noticed that a large group of people suddenly came in.

The one who is short in the word supports the idea that he actively joins the government to serve the king. He waved his little fat hand and said excitedly: "A good son should actively enter the office, he is not born for the country, he has no ambition, what is a person?" ”

The tall one held the opposite point of view, and immediately retorted: "Since ancient times, there were few officials and many people, if everyone entered the office, who farmed, and how to raise officials?" What if you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you can also do things for the people! ”

"But if there is no one to be an official, no one to preside, and the country has no outline law, how can the country be established? Now sitting on the platform, if you don't have ideals, why do you study hard here? ”

"Brother Sun, I want to ask you, is it possible that you are studying here just to serve your family and country without any selfishness? Don't want to return to your hometown, and don't want your fame and fortune? The tall guy was in trouble, and when this question was mentioned, the other party was instantly speechless.

Jin Shu pouted, this question is tricky! In fact, there is no right or wrong between these two states of life, and this Mr. Ruan must have another purpose for asking such a question.

"I don't think there's any need to argue about it." Shen Zhizhang whispered in her ear: "It's tricky." In fact, you can choose any way, it's all your own life, just live well! ”

"Agreed." Jin Shu agreed with Shen Zhizhang.

At this moment, another person who sat down stood up and said aloud, "Sir, I would like to express my opinion. ”

"Dongxu, you say." Mr. Ruan smiled and said, "What do you think?" ”

What the? Zhu Dongxu?

How did this guy get here? Jin Shu sighed secretly, could it be that the law of bad luck is online again?

Zhu Dongxu stood with his hands in his hands and talked eloquently: "I want to say a few words for Brother Sun." In fact, there is no conflict between being an official and personal fame and fortune. We win glory for the country, that is, we fight for ourselves. When the country prospers, the courtiers will also be glorious. There is nothing in the way of each other. We take the title of the gold list as our life goal, and the name in history as the ultimate dream, so that life will be very motivating, urging us to be motivated and be a useful person. But if you are an idle person, you can indeed do good deeds, but in this life, you are nameless, no one knows your life and death, and when you die of old age, won't we be ashamed of doing nothing in this life? ”

Pretty!

Jin Shu couldn't help but applaud him in his heart, what he said in this passage is really worthy of being a traverser! It's so burning!

For a while, even Wu Shiyan couldn't help but high-five and praise: "What a Mr. Dongxu!" Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! ”

Only then did Mr. Dongxu turn his head and look: I went, why did there suddenly become so many people in the back of the classroom? Why are the six princesses and Shen Zhizhang also there?

"Lord Wu, you have won the award, and you dare not be ashamed." Dongxu hurriedly said modestly.

Old Mr. Ruan laughed: "Lord Wu, I saw you coming!" ”

"I delayed Mr. Teaching, I also listened to Zhu Dongxu's words, and I couldn't help it for a while!" Wu Shiyan apologized.

"Lord Wu is polite!"

For a while, the students in the study hurriedly got up to greet each other, and Wu Shiyan happily introduced the people who came with him to Mr. Ruan: "This is the sixth princess, this is the sixth concubine Shen Zhizhang." ”

"The sixth princess is fine." For a while, everyone hurriedly knelt down to say hello, and the bluffing brocade quickly stood up: "You are all the pillars of tomorrow, you don't need to be polite." ”

"The six princesses really have a pattern." Mr. Ruan said with a smile: "I heard that the princess studied under my fellow senior brother Li Qingjie, and today the old man also has the courage to be the princess's uncle, and ask the princess's opinion. ”

"You and Taifu are equally divided, and I have benefited a lot today." Jin Shu said a few words briefly, and didn't dare to say too much in front of Zhu Dongxu.

"Oh?" Mr. Ruan smiled and asked, "Then what does the princess have on this topic?" ”

Jinshu was depressed, this old professor, why did he just grab me and ask alone? There's a row here, why do you ask me one?

She had to think about it a little and said with a smile: "I don't dare to call myself high, in fact, whether a man serves the motherland or is far away from the rivers and lakes, it is too difficult to be worthy of others, and it is enough to be worthy of his own life." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Shiyan threw a surprised look at her, and even Mr. Ruan's eyes lit up, and he said with emotion: "The princess's words are exactly what I want to teach you today." A good sentence is enough to be worthy of yourself! It seems that in terms of teaching, I really can't compare to my brother! Shame shame shame! ”

Jin Shu hurriedly shook his head: "Hey, Uncle Shi, you are too modest. Where I came up with these words, they were all taught to me by the horse! ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Zhizhang was momentarily stunned: Did I say it? That's what I mean?

Only then did Mr. Ruan notice the man in the stone blue robe. Looking at the eyebrows, the air is extraordinary. Hearing what the sixth princess said again, she immediately became interested and asked Shen Zhizhang: "This was actually said by the master of the horse, so you might as well express your opinion on the horse, right?" ”

"Hmm......" Shen Zhizhang was a little nervous, at this moment his chest was slightly hot, his heart was pounding, and his whole lungs were surging through a warm current, as if something lost was returning little by little.

But at this moment, his mind involuntarily recalled some scattered fragments of his childhood, like watching flowers and flowers, replaying them one by one.

It seemed that the little partner spoke beside him in an envious tone: "Shen Er! Today is the first time you memorized, how did you do it! ”

It seems that the old gentleman praised kindly: "Shen Zhizhang has the best explanation of this article, he has understood the essence of it!" The rest of you are going to do your best! ”

It seemed that his father was also there, holding him with a smile and letting him compose a poem: "Zhang'er! Come, write a poem and wish this uncle a birthday! ”

Memories came flooding in, and Shen Zhizhang couldn't help himself. Suddenly, his sleeve was gently pulled, and he suddenly came back to his senses, and suddenly saw Jinshu's bright and clear eyes full of concern.

He seemed to have been empowered, his thoughts were clear in an instant, he saw the moon through the clouds, and his eyes were clear and open.

"In my opinion, either way of life is just a way of life that I have chosen. If you want ideals and fame and fortune, then chase and pay. If you want peace and freedom, then be relieved and serene. You can't have both, there are no pros and cons, it's just up to you how you choose. In the court, don't be distracted by interests and betray your original ideals. In the rivers and lakes, don't be surrounded by mediocrity, and end up in the crowd. No matter what state you are in, it's good to remember your original intention. Shen Zhizhang's remarks were gentle and calm, eloquent, and straight to the hearts of people, which made people admire.

After finishing speaking, the whole study was silent.

After a while, I heard Mr. Ruan high-five and praise, and his tone was excited, and his voice trembled: "Okay! Good! That's the best answer! ”

For a while, everyone high-fived and praised in unison. Shen Zhizhang's eyes were slightly red, and even the hands hidden in his sleeves couldn't help but tremble.

Jin Shu also smiled and applauded him.

Sure enough, the experience of countless predecessors tells us that to change a person, we must first change our thoughts.

The effect of today's ideological enlightenment class is really good, not in vain! Collect the troops!
