Chapter 273: Fan Lao digs a pit
Second brother, you and I are from the same school, why are your strategies stronger than mine? ”
On the way back, Li Yun felt that his ancestor and his old man were hiding their secrets, otherwise, why would the gap be so obvious? Speaking of which, Li Yun also thinks that he has an obvious advantage over Li Kui, and he has to study two years earlier than Li Kui. I studied at least two more books. Although these two books are of no use to scholars.
When he could memorize "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text", Li Kui didn't know how to pee and play with mud in that mess? But why did he enter school earlier than Li Kui, but he was always suppressed by Li Kui?
This is not normal. Li Yun felt that he must have been deceived.
In Yingzhou and Yangzhou, Li Kui almost ate, lived and studied with him. Although Li Kui always likes to show off his talents in front of him, if you really want to talk about real talent, Li Yun feels that he is not bad!
The main thing is that it is no worse than Li Kui.
As soon as Li Kui saw Li Yun's aggrieved reaction, he knew that this kid was not convinced.
Who is he?
Li Kui, dictatorship is not satisfied.
Li Kui glared and said, "You kid don't study well, and you dare to complain?" ”
"I didn't complain, but I felt that you and I both studied in the family of my ancestors, and my teacher taught more on weekdays. Even if it is a strategy, the master often enlightens us. But why can you write something that says something and I can't? The more Li Yun spoke, the more excited he became, giving people a sense of arrogance.
It's like a young man with a lot of money, and the money in his pocket is the same, why did one of them become a handsome boy and be loved by everyone? Why did the other one become stupid?
If there is no reasonable explanation for this, Li Yun will not be able to pass the hurdle in his heart if he says anything.
Can Li Kui let him get his wish? I saw Li Kui's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was in a good mood and said: "Speaking of which, you and I are from the same school, but do you ask yourself if you have worked hard?" The homework assigned by the master, did you do your best to complete it at that moment? In the end, because he abandoned his studies, he found all kinds of reasons to complain, which was done by the eldest husband? ”
Li Yuncheng was silent, he was not a genius like several uncles. But when he was in Yangzhou, he often saw Li Kui being made up by his uncle Chao, and his uncle Li Qian was abused, and several uncles also abused him, which gave him the illusion that he and Li Kui were a level of readers.
But now that I think about it, Li Kui seems to be different, he seems to work harder than himself.
Of course, Li Kui didn't want to attack Li Yun from hard work, which was not in line with his style: "Besides, if you don't work hard, you still complain." In fact, Uncle Fan said just now that your strategy is just decent, in fact, it is more to give face to the ancestor, after all, if you are studying in front of his old man, if it is really unsightly, the face of the master is not yours, but the face of the ancestor. That's what gave this seemingly ordinary evaluation. Do you think that if you really rely on real talent and real learning, you will be able to pass the county exam, solve the exam, and then go to Bianliang Zhongjin Shi stupidly? People who don't work hard are not qualified to have such dreams at all. ”
In an instant, Li Kui's image suddenly brightened, as if he really worked hard.
He has been thinking about taking shortcuts, how can he study hard like other readers? If it weren't for the physical strength required to take shortcuts, he wouldn't have bothered to learn!
The Four Books and the Five Classics must be of no use to him.
But he couldn't say this, and if he said it, he would slap himself in the face. Li Kui raised his head, felt good about himself and said, "Li Yun......"
Li Yun was stunned, he rarely saw Li Kui speak so seriously, and after hesitating for a while, he chose to listen.
"Li Yun, if you don't work hard, you shouldn't complain about injustice. Instead, complain about why you don't work harder. When you don't work everyone, you will find a truth......"
When Li Kui said this, he deliberately paused to lure Li Yun into the bait.
Li Yun really asked expectantly: "Second brother, are you saying that if I work hard enough, I will be better than others?" ”
Can Li Kui not be able to figure out this kid's thoughts? It is false to compare with others, but it is true to compare with him. Li Yun's life goal in this life is probably Li Kui, his martial arts can't be compared, and he has no way at all. Li Kui is born with divine power and has a strong talent for martial arts. He now has no idea of surpassing Li Kui in force, and he is not stupid.
But when reading, everyone has nothing to lose, so why should they be pressed to death?
He was not convinced!
Seeing that Li Yun finally couldn't help but ask, Li Kui laughed out loud: "Then you will find that if you work hard, the more confident you will be, make yourself stronger, and play your highest level at a critical time, but the result will be ruthlessly beaten." Because if hard work is useful, why should the world be divided into three, six, nine and so on? Sometimes talent is more important than hard work, and there are thousands of hard workers, but what are the real successes? As for failure, you'll get used to it later. ”
Li Yun snorted angrily, turned his head and left. He secretly swore that he would hit Li Kui.
Xie Qian and Xie Wan followed them weakly, trembling. They only know that Li Kui is brave and invincible, has killed tigers, and has also made trouble in Linyi City. However, in the information, I have never heard that Li Kui is a disciple of Su Men, or the leader of the disciples who studied with Master Da Su.
If Li Kui knew what they were thinking, he would definitely tell them that this was not how the leader was used, at least not on him.
Li Yun's strategy is not good, mainly because his vision is not broad enough. In addition, although Su Shi's strategy is very good, it is only gorgeous in words. If he really let his old man share the king's worries and solve problems, he would also be blind.
After all, before Su Shi was in Huangzhou, he had never paid attention to people's livelihood issues, and he went out to wave with all his heart. It wasn't until he was imprisoned that he was demoted to Huangzhou that he began to go deep into the people. However, due to the limitations of the times, he saw many problems, but there was no solution. The ability to deal with specific things is not as good as Su Zhe's.
But Su Shi's theory is really good, so good that it stands alone in the world.
After all, the theory is based on the past as a metaphor for the present, and it is more of a warning. After all, the problem has been on the surface for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, and a little knowledgeable reader can tell one, two, or three. But if you want to write a good theory, you must polish the text all year round, this is a water grinding effort, you can't be in a hurry, and it's useless to be in a hurry.
Li Yun has been studying with Su Shi for a short time, not to mention that his talent is not enough. The level of the theory is also the middle and upper middle among the ordinary test solving students, or in the small place of Yizhou. In the world, he doesn't even have the capital to shout.
In fact, Li Kui also has such a problem, and his level of discussion is average. is better than Li Yun, mainly because he reads a little more books. But if you really want to say that you are placed among the scholars in the world, you will also be submerged by the world's scholars. But his strategy is very good, which is strange even to Su Shi. It seems that Li Kui is a crop that grows in the wrong place, and suddenly appears in his own field, which makes Su Shi puzzled.
But even if Li Kui's argument is not good, it is good in Yizhou. After all, after being nurtured in front of Su Shi for more than two years, even he can't forgive himself if he doesn't have the breath of dancing and writing.
Coupled with the promotion of strategy, proud of many turtle scholars in Yizhou, Li Kui's identity as Xie Yuan is almost stable.
Three yuan and the first step, he finished.
It's a pity that Li Kui looked around, and he didn't even have an object to show off, which was boring!
Can he be willing to fall into the face of thousands of reconciliations to show off his proud achievements? What kind of serious scholars are these two people?
I thought that I could block Li Kui in the martial arts test, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Li Kui was actually ordered by Fan Xiang to be Xie Yuan.
Most of them will not participate in this martial arts test.
It's a pity to solve thousands and solve thousands.
From the moment they came out of the mountain, they regarded Li Kui as their biggest opponent on the road to solving the test. It is a stumbling block on their way to the highest honors.
What makes people angry is that Li Kui has never taken them seriously.
It's no wonder that Xie Qian and Xie Wan have been staring at Li Kui's force value, if it weren't for the fact that the tiger was not easy to catch, they might have to catch a tiger with real knives and guns to try to see if a human fist can really kill a tiger.
But when they met Li Kui and observed it up close, they found that the original idea was so ridiculous.
State Studies.
In the marking room, Yan Ming left the examination room and followed Fan Chunren into the room.
Before the exam is over, the exam papers are not put away, and the marking room is just a place for the examiner to rest. Yan Ming is also an examiner, as a general judge, even if he can't mix the identity of the chief examiner, but the identity of the deputy chief examiner in Yizhou no one dares to rob him. He also has the right to enter the reading room to rest.
However, Fan Chunren saw Yan Ming follow him into the marking room, and immediately looked at Yan Ming vigilantly.
"The old man has to close his eyes and recuperate, you step back first!"
Yan Ming was a little funny in his heart, Fan Xiang still had the habit of protecting food. But he didn't dare to laugh, so he had to lower his head, the ninja was amused, and said the purpose of seeing Fan Chunren: "Fan Xiang, the lower official is dull, and he has been an official for many years but has little merit. But it happened that Li Kui's strategy appeared, which made the lower officials shocked and ashamed, and what surprised me was that there were many talents in my dynasty, and the younger generation was amazing and gorgeous......"
"Don't brag about it, just say what you think!"
Fan Chunren is not so unkind on weekdays, but at the moment of food, when he met an acquaintance in front of him, he just didn't want to leave. I always feel that the other party's intentions are very suspicious.
Yan Ming had no choice but to say: "Fan Xiang, the lower official implores Fan Xiang's permission to send Li Kui's test paper to Bianliang." ”
"Send it to Bianliang?"
Fan Chunren hesitated, Li Kui's strategy was very insightful, and it seemed that there was also a possibility of realization, once it was realized, the taxes of the Great Song Dynasty would be on a higher level. The problem of financial relief will also be greatly alleviated. But this small farm economy seems to be easily stolen by the reformers. Far away, let's talk about the "Baojia Law", which is still the core outline of Wang Anshi's reform, aimed at the protection of the Great Song Dynasty, the training of peasant soldiers, and the training of a large number of soldiers to supplement the army.
Not to mention the result, this "Armor Protection Law" is very unreliable, not only did it not send qualified soldiers to the army of the Great Song Dynasty, but once the local disaster and rebellion, these trained people seemed to be as difficult to deal with.
Over time, even Wang Anshi lost confidence in the "Baojia Law", and the same decree and the "Baoma Law" caused countless resistances.
But no matter what the decree is, it is difficult to implement, and even the side effects are obvious, and there is only one main reason - poverty.
The people are poor, and if they stir up a few times, they will make trouble.
But what if the people become rich?
Are you still making trouble?
Fan Chunren fell into hesitation, it seemed that Yan Ming also saw Fan Chunren's embarrassment, and explained: "Fan Xiang, this strategy is useful to the imperial court, and reporting it is only the duty of officials such as us." And no matter who uses it or where it is used, it is not a decree that can be influenced by the lower officials. ”
After finishing speaking, Yan Ming lowered his head weakly.
Why did he insist on reporting to the court?
Not just to ask for credit?
In a place like Yizhou, it can be said that any official will tremble. Not to mention the people's customs, they still make trouble at every turn. The rebellion of 100,000 people has been caused twice, what else is there that these people dare not do?
Yan Ming was sentenced for three years in Yizhou, and if he wants to be promoted by his political achievements, he has no hope in this life. can let him change places and continue to make general judgments, and he is a little unwilling. And Li Kui's strategy is undoubtedly a good reason. Once his voice is heard by the bigwigs in the court, it will naturally get more attention. When this official is done and the officials are assessed, it seems reasonable to get a first-class evaluation. In this way, wouldn't it be simple to get promoted and make a fortune?
For Yan Ming, what he needs to do is to remind Fan Xiang, fight with reason, and get things done.
Anyway, after Fan Chunren waited for the solution test, it was time to leave. When the time comes, even if you want to punish him, you can't reach the whip.
Fan Chunren has been an official for so many years, can he not see what kind of small calculation Yan Ming has in his heart?
However, even if he saw through it, he didn't say it, not only did he not say it, but he also showed that he didn't expect it to support. Now that the conservative front is shrinking, there is still a temptation to be there.
Since Cai Jing knew Kaifeng Mansion, he rushed ahead of everything, as if he had become a vicious dog raised by Zhang Dan, causing trouble everywhere.
If it is a different person, Fan Chunren is not worried. However, Cai Jing is extremely capable, and he restored the new law in three days, giving people the posture of making a big show and charging into battle.
Zhang Dian holds his own identity, and it is unlikely that he will directly conflict with Su Zhe and himself. But Cai Jing is a master who has nothing to do. Let him continue in Tokyo, too many variables.
If Cai Jing is asked to study the problem of the farm in Li Kuice, and then find a pilot place on the ground of the Great Song Dynasty and distribute it...... Quack Quack ...... This seems like a good way to kill without seeing blood!
Thinking of this, Fan Chunren immediately decided to do it! Lao Fan decided that it would be better for Cai Jing to be a poverty alleviation official, and the province would block them in the capital.
With the determination in his heart, he said solemnly: "My Fan family has received great favor from the imperial court, and I can't repay it, this is the opportunity to repay the imperial court's grace, how can I miss it?" The old man decided, and after transcribing Li Kui's strategy, he immediately sent the copy to Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province. Not only that, but also strive to send officials to try, if it is really a good way to govern the world, Your Majesty is very fortunate, and the Great Song Dynasty is very lucky. ”
Yan Mingqi almost burst into a rage, he is just a six-grade general judge, how can he be qualified to write a chapter and send it to Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province?
He knows where the doors of these two yamen will open, but even if he goes to the capital to submit a book in person, he can't get in!
Unexpectedly, Fan Chunren, who seems to be a loyal and honest person, will also make the credit of robbing his subordinates. hateful, I still thought Fan Chunren was easy to speak.
However, Fan Chunren is really a kind person, and he threw Yan Ming into the abyss at the last moment; The next moment, he was immediately rescued. said with a smile: "This matter, the old man will take the lead, you go to draw up the official document of the chapter, and jointly report it to the court." ”
"Joint?"
Yan Ming was stunned, happiness came so fast that he couldn't react.
"Xiaguan, how can he play side by side with the boss?" His status is too low, and he played together with the former prime minister and the current vice minister, how can he have the courage and blessing.
Fan Chunren smiled: "Otherwise, you don't want to sign it." ”
"Xiaguan, Xiaguan!" I heard that he is no longer needed, so won't he have no share in this credit? Yan Ming suddenly became anxious.
Fan Chunren laughed: "The old man is just joking with you, come and come, those who see it have a share, the old man rewards you with a chicken leg, and after eating, I will figure out how to write a recital." ”
When Yan Ming left the marking room, he was holding a chicken leg that was still slightly hot in his hand. That is to say, Fan Chunren is still childlike, and if he can do such a thing, if he is a big man in the court, he will not do such a disgraceful thing at all. But Yan Ming's heart was hot, like the heat bubbling on the chicken legs, and the tempting fragrance aroused his endless appetite.
When he tried to take a bite, the tenderness and juiciness of the chicken filled his mouth, and he couldn't help himself.
Although Fan Chunren decided to report to the imperial court, to put it bluntly, it was for Zhang Dian to see. As for whether Zhang Dun would care, he did not know. Of course, the most important thing at the moment is to find Li Kui and list all the problems in the policy theory.
What a piece of music!
I still have to write it myself, as for Yan Ming...... Just let this stupid boy be happy for a while.
Another day, the results of the test will be released.
Only the top ten scholars have the opportunity to participate in the provincial examination in the ninth year of Yuan You, and as for the scholars who are ranked after this, they have not ended this Yizhou examination.
Because there is also an announcement posted on the side of the list, there are 15 people in Yizhou this year, and 10 people will decide the results of the literary examination. The fallen scholars do not have to be discouraged, and they still have the opportunity to participate in the martial arts test.
In the stage of the Yizhou Liberation Martial Arts Examination, five scholars were admitted.
All scholars who have passed the examination are eligible to participate in the provincial examination.
The subjects of the examination are: bows and arrows, swords, guns and clubs, horsemanship, and the art of war.
As soon as the announcement was posted, the fallen scholars suddenly became excited, and the Linyi Bow and Arrow Club was overcrowded. For most scholars, many people know a little bit of knives, guns and sticks. After all, Yizhou is the hometown of martial arts and has a tradition of practicing martial arts. But after the scholars studied, there were very few people who did not put down their kung fu, and they were all children's gong, which they practiced when they were children.
As for riding, it is even more unqualified, and only a few people have experience in horseback riding. Everyone is pretty much the same.
The art of war is not difficult, and scholars rarely ignore such major issues as border security. Without the blessing of the art of war, when you talk about it, isn't it a lack of confidence?
The only thing that can be practiced in a short period of time seems to be the bow and arrow.
So Linyi Cheng you have a very evil scene.
A large group of scholars dressed in scholarly clothes, all carrying bows and quivers hanging from their waists, walked through the streets in groups of three or five, not shouting in the bow and arrow club.
Either they appeared outside the city of Yizhou, and groups of people were on the edge of the fields where the crops were harvested, competing to put dogs in the fields to grind small animals and shoot arrows.
After a tiring day, another mouse in his waist returned to the city, which immediately attracted bursts of amazement, and he walked with extraordinary spirit.
However, the two brothers Xie Qian and Xie Wan came back from the street with a disdainful face, and they were very disdainful of these temporary Buddha-footed scholars: "The bow is soft and unshaped, and the arrows are floating when they go out, and they dare to say that they want to participate in the martial arts test?" Don't you ignore our brothers? ”
