Chapter 659: Peeling Back the Cocoon
"What's wrong?" Du Jinning raised his eyebrows, "Our sage Confucius is still going around in an ox cart to preach his doctrines, and I haven't seen him sitting at home, waiting for the pilgrim to come." If Confucius sat at home like you and waited for pie to fall from the sky, the world's scholars would not believe in Confucianism, but in law and yin and yang. ”
“……”
The three of them fell silent when she said this.
Du Jinning's words are so reasonable, how can you break it? I was powerless to refute it.
Du Jinning saw that the three of them were crippled by her success, so he directly clapped his hands and said, "Okay, so be it." You go back to write articles, and I will also take advantage of Mu Xiu's time today to figure out the general ideas of the two articles. When the time comes, I am busy with political affairs, and I don't know how long it will be delayed. ”
She is a politician, not a pedantic literati scholar, she is in deep danger and needs to be famous to save herself, how can she wait slowly for "the court to come"? Naturally, whatever means can be used to become famous quickly.
Don't you see, do those people in the entertainment industry in later generations use this method if they want to become popular quickly? first blackened, then whitewashed; Let people smear again, and then whitewash. Under such a black and white interlacing, a few back and forth, it will be red. As long as you have the strength to wash white, you can't see a little black at the end of the absolute red and glamorous.
It's called hype.
How can mortals understand?
After Lu Jiuyuan and the three of them left with dreamy expressions, Du Jinning began to worry about the articles he wrote.
When I wrote the theory of mind, I guessed that Lu Jiuyuan was the historical scholar Lu Jiuyuan, and in order to do what he liked and overwhelm Qi Siyu, I wrote the theory of mind under the convenience of it. Later, Lu Jiuyuan and the three followed, and she had selfish intentions, so she did not expose the fact that she was not a believer in the theory of mind.
What is Mind? To put it bluntly, it's idealism. As a good socialist young man who was "born in New China and grew up under the red flag", how could Du Jinning believe in idealism? That is, of course, a staunch materialist.
Although many philosophers in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties first believed in one theory, and then turned to other theories. For example, Zhou Dunyi advocated the study of mind first and then the science of science, but people have more than ten or even decades to change excessively.
Before she could advocate the study of mind, she suddenly changed her course and believed in science, so she didn't want to be beaten to death by Lu Jiuyuan and the others.
So, she's struggling with it now, not knowing what to do.
Touching her chin and thinking for a while, she decided to play a side game and use Wang Yangming's theory. Although Wang Yangming is also a study of mind, the development of mind to him has begun to transform.
Anyway, philosophy is still a virgin land, and everyone is still in the exploration stage. She is not really a scholar, and the status of a Confucian master depends on flickering, so she will flicker a wave first, as long as she justifies herself, she is not afraid. Because philosophy is never about philosophy itself, but about how it is explained.
After making up his mind, Du Jinning calmed down and began to write articles.
She has always been a fast gunner. As long as the central idea is determined, the article is written very quickly. In an afternoon and half an hour in the evening, she had already written two articles.
She called Yao Shuqi over, handed him the two revised and copied articles, and asked him to send them to Lu Jiuyuan tomorrow, wash himself and go to sleep.
But as soon as the lights went out, she realized that something was wrong. Her senses have always been keen, how could she feel that someone was spying on her?
This feeling is very bad, it reminds her of when Zhao Chang went to Gui Province, when she and Qi Muyuan came back from the academy, as soon as they walked into the alley, the cold air ran from the back to the back of the head.
Didn't the family send someone to assassinate her?
With this thought, she could not lie down, sat up, took out a dagger under the pillow and held it in her hand. Taking out her dagger hand, her hand reached for the mechanism at the head of the bed, and her heart hesitated.
She has always taken precautions, and when she bought this house, she asked Qin Lao Liu to secretly invite a master of organs, and set up organs in her bedroom and study. As long as she pressed the mechanism in her hand, the bed board would automatically turn over, and she fell into the secret room, and there would still be well-laid bedding and other objects on the bed board on the other side, so that people could not see the clues.
With her temperament, she naturally will not set up a secret room where people will catch turtles in an urn. Her chamber is authentic and leads to several exits. And there are hidden weapons in these tunnels, as soon as she turns on the mechanism after she walks through, the people who go behind will be plotted.
However, this is all her last resort to save her life. As a last resort, she didn't want to be exposed to others.
After quickly thinking about the current situation in her mind, she shook her head again.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall", what she said to Qi Bokun today is exactly the way she believes in life. Because of this, she plans everywhere, is cautious and careful, and does not put herself in too dangerous situations. Even if she participated in the imperial examination, she also felt that it was feasible, and took all kinds of precautions before participating. It's not just a fluke.
So what she said to Qi Bokun today, although she took a detour and didn't come forward herself, she felt that such a proposal did not touch the interests of the family - if she proposed a whip law or other tax reform plan for the family, it would be death.
It did not touch their interests, and the family made Zhao Yu unhappy because of Shen Langzhong's matter, and they would definitely not attack her again in a short period of time, so as to attract Zhao Yu's vigorous suppression.
Zhao Yu has military power in his hands, which really makes him really angry, and he takes one or two families to be the chickens of the monkey, and the family can only shrink their heads and turtles. What they want to do to her will only be like the Shen Langzhong incident, some intrigues and tricks.
Therefore, it shouldn't be the family that peeps at her.
So, who will it be besides the family? Although she has a grudge with some people, those people will at most make some stumbling blocks in her imperial examination or official career, and they will definitely not assassinate her under the emperor's nose after she becomes the founder of the Hanlin Academy. If you want to kill her, you should have killed her long before she was admitted to the Jinshi.
Therefore, the Qi family and others who have grievances with her have also been ruled out.
Neither the one who has a grudge against her, but the one who is curious about her.
And the one who can send this kind of master, except for the family, is the emperor.
After peeling back the cocoon, the answer is about to emerge.
Thinking of this, she relaxed, and the hand that reached for the switch in the dark passage retracted.
Squinted her eyes and thought about Zhao Yu's intentions, no matter how she thought about it, she felt that Zhao Yu didn't need to have any suspicions about her. After all, her origin couldn't be more innocent, Qi Bokun has watched her grow up since she was ten years old, even if she is wise and close to demons, Qi Bokun has a reasonable explanation. So Zhao Yu spies on her, is it a good intention?
Is this to protect her from being assassinated by the family?
Thinking about it like this, she was a little ridiculous, and the tense heartstrings relaxed.
But to be on the safe side, she didn't put down the dagger in her hand. Moreover, I was very vigilant that night.
Nothing happened overnight.
