There are still three days left before the township test, Xu Qian entrusted Wang Gonggong to inquire about the news, and after a short time, finally there was news that Qin Cha Dove occupied the magpie's nest, saying that it was a collaborative exam, but the identity was higher than Zhao Tixue, and the grade was not comparable to Zhao Tixue.

"Shameless thing!" Xu Qian couldn't help but scold in his heart, in fact, there are things to rob the merit everywhere, but the problem is that this Qin Cha is really shameless, relying on the Qin order, he even wants to take care of the township test, so as to obtain political capital.

Moreover, it is also rumored that this messenger seems to be very disgusted with himself, and once when he talked to the governor, he talked about the country's selection of scholars in front of the governor, and virtue was the most important, and learning was secondary. And what is virtue? It should be to do their duty, farmers can be virtuous in farming, and workers can also be virtuous, so it is virtuous for the reader to ignore the things outside the window and only read the books of the sages. He also said that the atmosphere in Zhejiang is getting worse and worse, which is inseparable from the fact that some scholars do not do their jobs.

Of course, he didn't mention Xu Qian, but the meaning was very clear.

These remarks made Xu Qian feel a sense of crisis, and he couldn't help but scold this shameless thing, but what is the use of scolding too much? The test should still be taken.

Xu Qian was upset, but at this moment, a guy from the newspaper came and said, "Young Master Xu, Wang Bian asked you to come over, saying that there is something to discuss." ”

Xu Qian was angry in his heart, and couldn't help but say, "Have something to discuss?" What does he want me to do with something? Didn't you hear? Someone says that I am not doing my job, and that I am indebted in virtue and integrity. ”

Although he was angry, he quickly calmed down, in the end, it was not Wang Gen who provoked him, nor this guy, why bother to sprinkle his anger on them, he sighed, and said to the guy at the newspaper: "I'm not talking about you, let's go, go to the newspaper." ”

When I arrived at the newspaper office, I went to Wang Gen's office with a familiar car, and when I crossed the threshold, I found that Wang Gen was not the only one inside.

In addition to Wang Gen, there is also Zhao Tixue, Zhao Tixue is wearing a plain shirt, chatting with Wang Gen, Xu Qian came in, just nodded at Xu Qian, and continued to say to Wang Gen: "What Mr. Wang said is good, students are taught, but students still have a question, Mr. Yang Ming said: Knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and going evil for good is a thing." So what is good and what is evil? ”

Xu Qian came in and touched a gray nose, and no one paid attention to it, so he had to wait obediently on the side.

Wang Gen smiled and said: "Human beings are inherently good, but children are ignorant, although they have good thoughts, they don't know what good and evil are, so they must know, what is knowing?" It is nothing more than reading books and reasoning, so that they have no selfish and material desires, and if people have selfish desires, they cannot know good and evil, but science always has heavenly principles and destroys human desires. Mr. Yang Ming disagrees, he thinks that since human desires have existed, there is a reason for them to exist, but to get rid of human desires, it is not simple and rude to do, so there is the sentence to conscience. ”

Zhao Tixue had to continue to ask for advice, Xu Qian finally couldn't help it, and said: "Since this is the case, then please ask Mr. Wang to tell me, is the student good or evil?" ”

Originally, everyone was discussing theories, but suddenly a guy came out talking about the world, and most of the ordinary masters who met this kind of blind guy were killed.

Zhao Tixue suddenly felt displeased, but fortunately, Master Wang had long been accustomed to Xu Qian's confrontation, and said with a smile: "According to the old man, Xu Xiaoyou should be a good person. ”

Xu Qian would not be put on a high hat and give up, and continued to ask: "But I often have the urge to peek at women taking a bath, even if so, am I good?" ”

Zhao Tixue was so angry that his beard was cocked, and he wanted to strangle Xu Qian, a heretic, to death.

Wang Gen was not in a hurry, and asked Xu Qian: "Then may I ask Xu Xiaoyou, have you really seen a woman taking a bath?" ”

This question is very acute, Xu Qian was stunned for a while, and cautiously looked at Zhao Tixue, who was eager to rush up and kill someone, and said in his heart, if I answered yes, Zhao Tixue would probably immediately say that I had broken the atmosphere and school rules, even if it was to get rid of my fame, it was natural. So he hurriedly denied it: "Students only occasionally have evil intentions, but how can this kind of unconscionable thing be done." ”

Wang Fuzi smiled slightly and said: "That's it, you have evil thoughts in your heart, this is because you have human desires, human desires cannot be extinguished, and desires arise from your heart." But the reason why you don't want to do it is because you know good and evil, and you know that this thing is evil, so you will restrain your behavior and restrain your human desires, so the old man said that you are a good person, and anyone will have evil thoughts in their hearts, but when you know good and evil, you will know what you should do and what you should not do, and such a person is naturally good. Just like the sage of Confucius, there are times when bad thoughts are suddenly born, such as this "Zi Sees Nanzi", the master and the beautiful Nanzi are in the same car, and their faces are embarrassed, why is this? This is because the master also has human desires, but he is a great sage, even if he has evil thoughts and desires in his heart, but because he knows good and evil, he still respects Nanzi like a guest. ”

After saying a few words, quoting scriptures, even the troubles of Sage Kong and his old man moved out, so that Xu Qian was speechless for a while, although Xu Qian likes to mess around the most, he also has to admire Wang Gen at this time, no wonder this guy can spread Wang Yangming's thoughts, and soon become popular all over the world.

Xu Qian had to divert the topic and said, "Mr. Wang invited me to come, I don't know what to teach?" ”

Wang Gen said: "It just so happens that Zhao Tixue came here to sit idly, so I just invited you to come and talk together, and I have no other intentions." ”

Xu Qian didn't believe that Wang Gen called him to come just for chatting, and Zhao Tixue couldn't come to sit around for no reason, besides, the township test was imminent, and a person who was not good at preparing for the study had the leisure to talk to others, which in itself was contrary to common sense.

There is only one explanation, Zhao Tixue was vacated by Qincha, and now he can only play with mud on the side.

Xu Qian smiled and said, "When the students come to the newspaper hall in their busy schedules, the students are naturally welcome. ”

He deliberately said that he was busy, although he was sincere, and he couldn't see any other intentions, but in Zhao Tixue's ears, he couldn't help but feel a little ironic, it stands to reason that he should indeed be in a busy schedule, but now he has become an idle cloud and a wild crane, and it is really a lifelong shame to be so unruly to be tricked by others, but he obviously can't publicize the contradictions here, just smiled and said: "Xu Qian, have you been reading recently?" ”

Xu Qian nodded: "I've been studying hard these days. ”

Zhao Tixue said: "I don't know what book to read? ”

Xu Qian said: "Etiquette." ”

Zhao Tixue nodded and said: "Yes, you are very smart, Qincha is originally from the Ministry of Rites, and most of the questions in this township exam will be intercepted from the Book of Rites." ”

Xu Qian pretended to be stunned and said: "Why is it Qincha's question, shouldn't it be an adult?" ”

Zhao Tixue remained silent, and said indifferently: "It's okay, after all, he is a poor person, and his knowledge is much higher than that of his own official, so it is nothing to ask the boss to ask the question." ”

He said it generously, but Xu Qian faintly heard the irony from Zhao Tixue's mouth, so he clenched his fists and said indignantly: "That's what I said, but rules are rules, and the rules of the court have always been like this, even if the cabinet ministers come down, shouldn't it be like this?" In this case, what did the imperial court do when it set up scholars? ”

Zhao Tixue's face changed, and he scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, what do you know, dare to make a big fuss?" ”

Xu Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm just holding grievances for adults." ”

Zhao Ti's style of learning was indifferent, and he said: "Does this school still need you to hold grievances?" You read your books well, and you can take your exams. After speaking, his tone was even more relaxed, and he said: "Actually, your knowledge is among the first-class in the whole of Zhejiang, and it is just commonplace to raise a prize." ”

Xu Qian hurriedly said: "My lord praises it. ”

Zhao Tixue paused for a moment, and then said: "But this time you have to be careful, fame is a matter of the future, so naturally you should be careful." ”

Xu Qian couldn't help but say, "Why is this?" ”

In fact, everyone knows the reason, but Xu Qian wants to break the casserole and ask to the end. Zhao Tixue was silent for a moment before he said, "Have you heard about the recent rumors?" You don't want to deceive Benxue, Benxue has always treated you as a junior, don't be sloppy with Benxue. ”

Xu Qian couldn't help squinting his eyes, the whole person became a little excited, and said in his heart: I know that you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and look at what you say.

Xu Qian said: "This ...... The student has heard some of it, but the student does not believe it, these rumors may not be true, the student does not believe that the dignified and poor man will be so stingy after two dynasties, just because the student offended him, he will wait for the opportunity to take revenge. ”

In fact, Zhao Tixue's mind is to instigate Xu Qian to go outside to make some noise, and make a whole mess, after all, he is an official and is crushed to death by others, but Xu Qian is different, Xu Qian still has a Qin life, as long as he is willing to cut his body, he will definitely be able to make some trouble. Who knew that Xu Qian was twisting and turning, no matter what, he was not fooled, which made him a little angry for a while, but Xu Qian said whether he believed it or not, whether you believe it or not, you can't do anything about him.

Zhao Tixue finally couldn't help it, and sneered: "According to this study, this may not be, the officials in the court are mixed, what is their character, who can say?" In short, Benxue heard the rumors in the yamen, saying that this time someone has to make your name fall to Sun Mountain, so you can do it yourself. ”

Xu Qian smiled slightly and said: "Talent Ceremony, students don't believe that anyone dares to be so blatant, students don't win, it's not others who have the final say, but students who have the final say, as long as the article is done well, there is no reason not to be successful." ”

Zhao Tixue glared at Xu Qian, and said indifferently: "Let's tell you the truth, if it were someone else, maybe you wouldn't have the ability, but whether the main examiner of this exam can make you fall into Sun Shan's name is not up to you." ”

This guy ...... Is it really simple or is it deliberately squeezing the old man?
