Chapter 26: Criticism of the Word

"We don't lend him money, he doesn't have money, he doesn't spend money, for example, the house won't be renewed, so it doesn't do us any good. On the other hand, if we lend him money, and he has it, he will spend it, and let him spend it as much as he can, and when the time comes, we will pay the debt with his good land. ”

"At that time, the quality of those good land, the price, is not at our disposal, he owes money, and he can't pay it back, except to use the good land to pay off the debt, what other way is there to let us slaughter? This is called, if you want to take it, you must first deal with it!"

Zhong Dayong listened, and then he suddenly realized, and immediately smiled, and there was no objection, and he happily went to the residence with the other party to withdraw money.

After the two took out the money, Zhu Ming paid thirty taels, Zhong Da used twenty taels, and then the two came to Jiang Yun's residence, at this time Jiang Yun had also written an IOU, to the effect that Jiang Yun borrowed Zhu Ming, Zhong Da used a total of fifty taels of silver for the two of them, no interest, and repaid it after a month, etc.

After Zhu Ming and Zhong Dayong read it, they had no objections, and immediately handed over the silver, and the three of them signed and pledged on the note, and the loan business was closed.

Zhu Ming and Zhong Dayong took the note and left with a smile, Jiang Yun got the silver and it was not bad, they seemed to be happy.

With this silver, there is capital, Jiang Yun pondered to see if there was any way to make money, but he couldn't think of it for a while, so he still had to go and see it on the spot. Anyway, there is no need to worry about this, even if there is no way to make money, he will pay back the silver at that time, anyway, there is no interest, and he will not lose anything.

He suddenly felt that this Zhu Ming and Zhong Dayong were really Lei Feng who helped the poor and specialized in doing good deeds.

With the silver, he went to the academy's steward's room, took out five taels of silver, and paid the rent for another quarter.

After paying the silver, he came to the West Pavilion Hall, and when he came, the professor had not yet come, and the students in the hall were either reading silently with their heads bowed, or whispering, exchanging experiences.

The seats for students to listen to the class are not fixed, and they can occupy the front position early in the morning, and the front is closer to the professor, and the listening effect is better, so many students are keen to occupy a seat, and every time they come early, they can take a seat in the front.

However, the best positions in the front row are basically fixed, and those who are qualified to sit are either some children of scholarly families, or some talented scholars, and other students will not compete with them.

When Jiang Yun arrived at the main hall, he unusually directly found a remote corner at the back to sit down, and now there are still many vacant seats in the middle of the main hall, and his behavior is undoubtedly rare.

It was Zhu Ming and Zhong Dayong who came early today and also seized the middle two good positions.

Some students noticed Jiang Yun's arrival, and began to talk about each other, and from time to time there was a burst of playful laughter, and the aftermath of yesterday's east wind was still blowing, and it is still talked about among the students.

After a short time, the professor of the academy arrived, walked up to the podium, and the laughter in the hall subsided, and all the students got up and saluted, and then sat down with dignity.

The professor of the academy who is lecturing today is another person, named Yuan Lun, who is a talented and famous, in his fifties, with a solemn expression and no smile.

"Establish the Son of Heaven as the world, non-the world as the Son of Heaven, the monarch as the country, the non-monarch as the king, the chief of the government as the official, and the non-official as the long......"

After Yuan Lun came in, he didn't talk nonsense, he started talking directly, read a passage, and did not explain it first, but asked in a voice: "Which student in the seat can explain the meaning of this text?"

After his words fell, the hall was silent for a while, no one spoke, some people knew nothing about this passage, some people did not understand it at all, and some people had already understood, but for the sake of caution, they did not speak immediately, after all, the sage's words were not so easy to understand, if he spoke rashly, wouldn't it be a joke.

"Isn't this passage difficult to understand, I don't need you to grasp the deep meaning, just give a rough idea. Seeing that there was no sound in the hall and no one spoke, Yuan Lun frowned and said displeasedly.

At this time, I saw a student in the front row stand up and said loudly: "Teacher, the student's understanding of this passage is like this, and if it is inappropriate, please correct the teacher!"

Everyone looked at it, the person who spoke was called Li Yuanchun, and he was also a well-known talent and scholar in the academy, and yesterday his "a little heroic spirit, a thousand miles of fast wind" also received a lot of appreciation, no worse than Lu Wenpeng's "good wind with strength, send me to Qingyun".

Yuan Lun nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Li Yuanchun said eloquently: "This passage is to say that the purpose of supporting the Son of Heaven is to govern the world well, not to set up the world to serve the Son of Heaven alone; the purpose of supporting the monarch is to govern the country well, not to establish the country to serve the monarch alone, and to set up official posts to better perform their duties, not to set up official posts for the personal pleasure of the governors. ”

"I wonder if the student is right?"

After Yuan Lun heard this, his always old-fashioned and serious face showed a rare hint of appreciation, and said: "Yuan Chun, you can comprehend so much, it's already very rare, it's very good, sit down." ”

After Li Yuanchun sat down, Yuan Lun began to quote the scriptures and carefully explain the meaning of the scriptures to everyone.

"Clarify the legal system, and remove personal favors. The husband's order must be carried out, and the prohibition must be stopped. ”

"The fire is strict, so the people are fresh, the water is cowardly, and the people are drowning. ”

"The law is not expensive, and the rope is not twisted. With the addition of the law, the wise can resign, the brave dare to fight, the punishment does not avoid the minister, and the reward is not spared......"

Speaking of this, Yuan Lun stopped, looked at the students in the main hall, and asked: "Tian Sheng said that he would not avoid the minister if he was punished, and he would not spare any good man, but Zhou Sheng said that he could not be courteous to a concubine, and he could not be punished by a doctor.

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the hall again, and Yuan Lun's question was even more terrifying, but no one dared to criticize the words of the saint casually.

Seeing that there was silence again, Yuan Lun asked again, but this question was too sensitive, and no one dared to open his mouth casually. Etiquette is not inferior to the people, and the punishment is not the doctor, which is the words of Yasheng Zhou Zhi in the ritual law, and it is the words of the true saint.

Seeing that no one spoke, Yuan Lun directly began to roll call, called a student, and asked him to get up and answer.

After the student who was called stood up, his face was a little pale, and he said, "Student, the student thinks that what the two saints said is very reasonable, and each has its own profound meaning, and it is difficult to distinguish between the superior and the inferior. ”

Such an ambiguous answer naturally made Yuan Lun very dissatisfied, shook his head, waved his hand to let the other party sit down, and called other students, and called a few in a row, and most of these students' answers were vague and muddy, which is no wonder to them, although such debates are also common in Shilin, and it is not uncommon, but it is all something that only people with meritorious personality dare to do, and now they are all ants who are not even children, how dare they casually criticize the length of the saint's words, isn't that disrespectful.

Even Lu Wenpeng, Li Yuanchun, and several other outstanding talents who were sitting in the front row and were usually very active, were collectively silent at the moment, and they didn't dare to say a word.

"Is Jiang Yun here, get up and speak. ”

Yuan Lun named another name at this time, and it was Jiang Yun. He called Jiang Yun at the moment, maybe it was not completely random, yesterday's east wind blowing had already spread in the academy, and the academy professor must have heard of it, at this moment Yuan Lun called Jiang Yun, it may not be that there is no prank.

Hearing the professor's roll call, Jiang Yun stood up. Regarding Yuan Lun's question, the students here may be secretive and dare not criticize it, but he does not have this burden at all, and his position is very clear.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he said clearly: "The students think that Tian Sheng's words are a little higher, and Zhou Sheng's words are a bit out of place. ”

As soon as these words came out, it was simply a blockbuster, and everyone in the hall was shocked, including the talented professor Yuan Lun.

Jiang Yun's words were simply too direct and bold, not much worse than pointing at Zhou Sheng's nose and scolding. You must know that the Shilin debate, as long as it involves the words of the sage, even if those scholars with meritorious names have criticism, they all speak vaguely, secretively, and use Spring and Autumn penmanship, and dare not say it too bluntly, like Jiang Yun, it is really rare to say so clearly and directly, not to mention that he is still a young school boy who has not even entered school.

"Jiang Yun, you are so bold, you actually believe in the words of the saint, you are simply mad, I don't know the height of the sky! After I go back, I don't hurry to close my door and think about it, recite the righteous text of Haoran, and repent and introspect!"

Before Yuan Lun could speak, a righteous and awe-inspiring student stood up, looking like a defender, pointing at Jiang Yun and shouting at him.

Seeing this, Yuan Lun was a little unhappy in his heart, in fact, he was a supporter of the Legalist family, Jiang Yun's remarks just now were quite in line with his appetite, and he appreciated it in his heart.

"Quiet! This is a classroom, everyone can speak freely, those who speak are not guilty, and those who hear are full of caution! Jiang Yun, you go on, but you should be more restrained and careful in your words. ”

Yuan Lun repelled the students who had risen up to attack Jiang Yun, and gave him a small warning.

Jiang Yun didn't want to say more, but he thought that it would be good to publicize the spirit of the legal system, so he continued: "Tian Shengyun, he will not avoid the ministers when he has been punished, and he will not spare any effort to reward the good; to put it simply, it is necessary to govern the country according to the law! There are laws to follow, laws must be followed, law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be prosecuted!"

"I don't know if what the student said is right, if there is something inappropriate, please ask the teacher to correct it!"

He directly copied this sentence that was familiar to **** in his previous life.
