Chapter 22: Broken Temple Endorsement
Maybe it's because there is an extra woman in the broken temple, and the few people who were originally discussing poetry and songs are as quiet as chickens, making Lu Manman very unaccustomed to such a quiet environment, and then Lu Manman took the initiative to break the silence and threw his snack bag over: "I don't know when the rain will stop, you can eat something too." ”
Then I heard a few scholars say very gratefully, "Thank you, girl." ”
Then I only heard the sound of eating, and it was still quiet, and I had to say again: "Aren't you going to participate in the imperial examination?" Now that I have free time, I can discuss it for a while, and don't let me delay your studies because of my arrival. ”
I heard Xiuyuan say: "We are afraid that what we said is too noisy, which will affect the girl's rest." ”
Lu Manman thought in his heart: Although the scholar is really annoying, but although the stupid scholar in front of him is stupid, his character is not bad, so help them.
Lu Manman said directly: "No, you don't speak, this is too quiet, a little unaccustomed, you don't have to worry about what you say, I don't understand, I have been familiar with all kinds of books since I was a child, maybe I can help you." ”
This group of scholars is obviously based on Xiuyuan, thinking that Xiuyuan's knowledge is the best, and then a few people nodded, which can be regarded as agreeing to Lu Manman's request, but they didn't take Lu Manman's things to heart, after all, women's upbringing and books for the imperial examination are fundamentally two different things, and how many talented women who are famous all over the world are actually just exaggerations. But they are still grateful that Lu Manman has such an idea, after all, Lu Manman is a child of a rich and noble family, and it is rare to be so kind.
Then Xiuyuan and they began to discuss all kinds of four books and five classics, and they dozed off after a long time, because what they said was too simple, and sure enough, these young people and students are still very different from those great Confucians who can write books.
Lu Manman once thought that the imperial examination was still difficult and profound, after all, she was crammed with too many books when she was a child, and there were countless esoteric and obscure, so that Lu Manman once felt that those were those students who wanted to take the exam, and he was very sympathetic to them, because although Lu Manman's memory is very good, he can memorize all those things, but it still takes a lot of time to really read them, so Lu Manman is still in awe of many academic things.
After listening to it for a long time, seeing that they were always discussing very simple things, Lu Manman couldn't help it, because Lu Manman felt that it was stupid to read like them, and he only knew that he would read according to the book, and the hope of failing was great.
In line with the idea of accepting other people's help and returning one or two, Lu Long asked tentatively: "I don't know if I can say a few words." ”
Xiu Yuan hurriedly returned: "Did you disturb the girl, the girl can say it directly if she has something to say." ”
"No, it's just that I heard what you talked about, it seems to be quite basic, if you test a little obscure thing in the exam, you don't practice first, and then you will be blind."
Hearing that Lu Long could understand their words, and felt that it was simple, the rest of the people let out an unbelievable voice: "Ah. ”
In the end, Xiu Yuan nodded, and said very calmly: "The girl is reasonable, but several of us are not from a good family, and if we can read it to this day, it is already a waste of power, and we really don't have the ability to worship Confucianism as a teacher, and we can't get in touch with precious literature, so I let the girl smile, but no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will not give up. ”
Seeing such a courageous person, Lu Long suddenly felt a little affected by their persistence, and he had no self-motivation that he had not had.
Then Lu Manman said: "Although I don't know everything, but I have read a lot of books, all of them can be memorized, if you have a book you want to read, you can say it, if I have read it, I will recite it to you, and then you will discuss it with each other, it is better than what you discuss the most basic things, you can be lifted, it means that the brain is still enough, but the resources can't keep up, if you fall off the list because of this, it is really a pity." ”
The Lu family is a family that has been handed down for hundreds of years, and the books collected are of course not known to ordinary people, and the people of the Lu family were allowed to go to the Lu family's study in order to sell Lu Manman at a good price, and also to increase Lu Manman's bargaining chips.
This group of scholars is not very old, the largest estimate is in their early twenties, this group of people is a group of young and promising people, although they stayed for a while, but their qualifications are good, and the most unsightly thing about the long road is that good qualifications are wasted, so they are also really helpful.
Soon one of the scholars asked Lu Manman if he knew a book of the great Confucian of the previous dynasty, because the scholar admired the great Confucian of the previous dynasty very much, but unfortunately the great Confucian was a big temperament, when Haoyue founded the country, he scolded the emperor of Haoyue for being a thief, all the books of the great Confucian were burned, and only some solitary books were hidden in various families, because it was the emperor of Haoyue, so those families hid the books very well, only circulated internally, and the royal family turned a blind eye. So people from the outside can't reach it at all.
And this book, Lu Manman just knew it, so he slowly memorized it, and it took more than half an hour to memorize the book, and then this group of scholars were so surprised that they couldn't speak, although they didn't want to be like Lu Manman, but they were all people with very good memories, and they could remember a good part, and they were all happy like something.
Just a book makes these people so happy, and the road is a long way and a little speechless, but it's no wonder that they, this book is only available to the powerful and the family, these people have the top resources and the most wealth and power in Haoyue Country, no wonder so many people desperately want to get into the powerful.
Then the other most calm person also asked a book about a school called "Hongxue", this school has declined, because "Hongxue" is the idea of an ideal country of Confucianism surnamed Hong, which is very inappropriate for the ideas of those in power, so of course it will be suppressed, "Hongxue" is talking about a paradise, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, there is no suppression, there is no distinction between high and low, and it is regarded by many people as a school that challenges the imperial power.
Lu Manman remembered seeing an article about reverie about the ideal country from Fengyun scholars, and he didn't know if it was the book they wanted, but Lu Manman still memorized this article very seriously.
These students listened very carefully to Lu Manman's endorsement, and they began to know that Lu Manman really knew a lot of ancient books and lonely books, and they wished that Lu Manman could recite all the books to them, but unfortunately time passed too fast, Lu Manman only memorized four or five books, it was already dark, and the rain had stopped, but they had no way to rush overnight, so they could only spend the night in this place, relying on the dried meat snacks on the long road, so they would not be hungry.
If at the beginning they were polite because Lu Manman was a girl, then now they love Lu Manman from the bottom of their hearts, after all, what they have learned today is really a lot, and they have always been very single thoughts, and suddenly found that there are many other things, many very deep things, even if it takes a lifetime to learn things that cannot be learned, that is, new thoughts.
A few people shrank into the corner to sleep, under limited conditions, to avoid Lu Manman to the greatest extent, so as not to tarnish Lu Manman's reputation, and the little boy has not woken up until now, Lu Manman only asked Xiuyuan what happened to this child, and only then did he know that this child looked small, in fact, he was already seven years old, and he was the concubine of a rich family in their Jingyang Mansion, their mother and son had been favored for a period of time before, and their mother and son fell out of favor before they were less than a year old, and they were suppressed by their mother-in-law since childhood, and his aunt had passed away, Xiuyuan once had the help of this aunt to have the opportunity to get the master's teaching, so he has always been very grateful, this time he was entrusted by the aunt's deathbed to take him to the capital to find his grandfather's house, otherwise such a young child, staying in Jingyang Mansion, I am afraid that he will not be able to live.
Xiuyuan is a person with a very sense of justice, so in the case that he is not enough to take a child on the road, the difficulty can be imagined, fortunately, this child is very sensible, all the way to follow Xiuyuan to make money on the road, the last time Lu Long saw them, it was because he wanted to make some money, but the child suddenly fell ill, they would obviously set off a day earlier than Lu Manman, but they only came here, they rested in the broken temple for a long time, and then went out to find food, only to get wet and roasted, and this child was drunk medicine, so he fell asleep.
The child is sick, it is easy to die, Lu Manman is not a hard-hearted person, so he took the initiative to say to the child to see, the group is very grateful, but when Lu Manman touched the child's pulse, Lu Manman's face sank suddenly, and several people were a little scared to see Xiuyuan, for fear that something would happen to this child, but they basically spent all the money on their bodies, so that they could afford to see a doctor for the child.
It was originally a Pingshui meeting, if it weren't for Xiuyuan, a few of them have always respected Lu Manman very much, Lu Manman wouldn't talk to them at all, after contact, I found that these people are actually very simple people, Lu Manman really can't see them die like this.
