After Lin Tailai made up his mind, he asked Dong Qichang again: "You said that Gu Jingyang would go to the Taixue Ancestor Temple, how did you find out this news?" ”

Lin Daguan did entrust Dong Qichang before and asked him to help him inquire about relevant developments, after all, Lin Daguan has no social circle among scholars, and the channels are very narrow.

And he is mainly worried that Dong Qichang's sources are unreliable and will make him toss in vain. Because if you ask someone to do something, you have to do favors, and if you waste it, it will be gone.

Dong Qichang replied: "It was said after he drank too much when he was entertaining a Wuxi scholar."

But he didn't know exactly how, only that there was going to be such an event, and I felt that it should be true. ”

Then Dong Qichang couldn't wait to ask: "Friend Lin, you said that there is good news for me, what is it?" ”

Lin Tailai sighed: "I have been dismissed by Hai Qingtian, and I will not be responsible for the errand of rectifying the atmosphere in the future, so I am afraid that the district inspector I appointed will also be invalid."

Then you can concentrate on the township test and no longer have to work for the education and supervision, isn't it good news? ”

The reason why he said this at this time was mainly because Lin Daguan was not very at ease with Dong Qichang.

After all, in history, although Dong Qichang is excellent in both calligraphy and painting, his character has always been criticized.

If you first hear the news of your resignation, and then you turn away from yourself and hide some information, wouldn't it be a big loss?

Therefore, Lin Daguan will dig up the information brought by Dong Qichang before telling him about his resignation, just in case.

"No!" Dong Qichang hugged his head in pain.

Since he was in charge of supervising and indoctrination in a certain area of the old courtyard in Nanqu, he has become a popular figure in the group of friends.

His friends all praised him with stars, countless scholars tried their best to get to know and befriend him, and all the beauties in the area greeted him with smiles.

Dong Qichang likes this kind of life very much, and his calligraphy and painting have been in Songjiang Mansion alone, and he doesn't feel so cool.

I didn't expect that the good days would be over in a few days.

Lin Tailai persuaded with a righteous face: "Don't indulge in red dust, take exams, practice calligraphy, and paint seriously!"

What is this sweetness, when you become famous and famous all over the world in the future, some of them can enjoy the wealth of the world! ”

Dong Qichang raised his head and wondered, "Why are you the same as what Chen Jiru said?" ”

Lin Tailai asked again: "What about others?" Why not? ”

Dong Qichang replied: "He is now studying hard behind closed doors, determined to seize the fame of the people, and he will not be detained casually in the future!" ”

Lin Daguan couldn't help laughing, and laughed a few times in a bit of rudeness.

I hope that Chen Jiru, the most famous Buyishan man in the late Ming Dynasty, will not vomit blood when he sees his friend Dong Qichang in the middle of the Jinshi, and he is another pair of abusive friends.

Lin Tailai suddenly said with a bad taste: "If you really cherish red powder and expect to indulge in flowers, I can also show you a way." ”

If Dong Qichang, a young man in this time and space, is corrupt and degenerate early, and can't succeed in the imperial examination and have a smooth career, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for him?

sent Dong Qichang away, it was too late that day, but early the next morning, Lin Daguan said goodbye to Zhao Caiji.

"In the next few days, I'm going to go to the country to stay in prison." Lin Daguan said seriously.

Zhao Caiji asked in surprise: "You won't hide out, right?" Eighteen or nineteen years old, it's only a few days before it's gone? ”

Lin Tailai said angrily: "It's just that there is something serious, so you need to go over!" Reading people's things, what do you know! ”

In the Ming system, the county school and the state school are schools, and the Guozijian known as Taixue is also a school, but the level is much higher.

For example, the "Confucius Temple" that later generations are familiar with is not the Nanjing Guozijian of the Ming Dynasty, and its predecessor in the Ming Dynasty is only the "Temple of the First Master" of the Tianfu Mansion.

Ying Tianfu Fuxue has no status at all, let alone a famous school, but the geographical location is excellent, next to the Gongyuan where the big exam is located, and the old Qinhuai courtyard is on the other side of the river.

If the students in the county school and state schools have not been able to pass the examination, they can be sorted according to the year, go to the country to study, mix a prison student and then become an official.

This is a different path to fame from the imperial examination, but it has a very low status in the officialdom.

Since they are all schools, the layout is similar, but the scale of Guozijian is much larger.

However, the overall architectural pattern of "left temple and right learning" is the same. But every school has a temple of the first teacher, and there is a main hall and a Dacheng hall, so there are also in the Guozi Prison.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was no "Confucius Temple, the first school in the south of the Yangtze River", which was a popular Internet celebrity attraction, and Guozijian, located in the north of the city, was theoretically the highest school in the country.

Therefore, even if the scholar wants to worship Confucius, it is the temple of the ancestor of Guozijian that should be more effective.

Regarding the worship of Confucius, there are two grand sacrifices every year, one in spring and one in autumn, on the Shangding day in February and August.

The more diligent emperor will also come to the Guozijian to sacrifice Confucius in person, and the lazy emperor will forget it.

And now it happens to be August, and Nanjing Guozijian has just finished the ceremony of sacrificing Confucius on the Ding Day.

Then the temple and the Dacheng hall were opened according to the custom, and they were open until the end of the township examination, and scholars were allowed to come and offer incense to the saints.

The closer to the date of the township test, the scholars here began to come in an endless stream, calling friends and companions to come to offer incense.

Lin Tai came to Guozijian and visited Zhao Zhigao, the head of the house.

Old man Zhao is very idle most of the time, and of course he is very happy to have someone to accompany him to pass the time.

"I've been dismissed from Haizhongcheng in Xia, and I have more leisure time." Lin Tai said.

Zhao Zhigao sighed: "For a grim and demanding person like Haizhongcheng, it would be very good for you to be able to get out of the way when you were working under him." ”

Lin Tailai said again: "I'm idle below, and the old bachelor can also give me a temporary errand." ”

Zhao Zhigao subconsciously said: "I am here in the land of Sven, and I don't need a thug." ”

Lin Tailai was very unconvinced: "Old bachelor! In the next is the first child of the double case, or from Suzhou City! Half a literati, how can you only look at it as a thug? ”

Zhao Zhigao replied: "With your talent, I have wronged you by being an errand here." ”

There is really no need for people in the Guozi Prison who can penetrate from the back door to the front door and suppress the prisoners with violence.

Lin Tailai hurriedly said: "No grievances, no grievances!" There is a place in the Guozi Prison, so that I will never be wronged when I go down on an errand! ”

To put it mildly, Lin Daguan finally persuaded Zhao Zhigao and became a handyman of the Guozijian with honor.

Then Lin Daguan seemed to ask casually: "Recently, I have seen a lot of scholars who have offered incense to Sage Kong, but what is the big news?" ”

Zhao Zhigao said while thinking about it: "If there is any big movement, it is that the Nanjing Sanzhi will collectively incense the Sage Kong the day after tomorrow." ”

Lin Tailai asked in surprise: "What Nanjing Sanzhi?" What is this combination? ”

Zhao Zhigao replied: "From last year to this year, because of the courage to speak out, the three righteous ministers who were demoted to Nanjing City.

They are Wei Yunzhen, Zou Yuanbiao, and Li Sancai, although their official positions are only five grades, they have a very good reputation and are representatives of upright ministers. ”

Lin Tailai: "."

Aren't these names the Donglin Party, don't think that the current vest is called the Qingliu Force, so I don't know a few of you!

Also, since these three buddies are here, what about Gu Xiancheng, the spiritual leader of the Donglin Party?

Zhao Zhigao said: "I didn't hear that Gu Xiancheng was going to participate, I only heard that Nanjing Sanzhi worshiped Confucius together." ”

This makes Lin Daguan a little strange, the Qingliu forces are very cohesive, these three direct ministers go to incense with great fanfare, how can they not bring Gu Xiancheng who is also in Nanjing?

Not to mention that Gu Xiancheng is the only Jiangnan clan in this group, and it can't be said without this only "landlord".

Coupled with the information provided by Dong Qichang, judging from all aspects of information, Lin Tailai can only think that Gu Xiancheng will definitely and will definitely pretend to be forced on the spot.

But now Gu Xiancheng didn't dare to speak out in advance, and even asked the three ministers to cover him so that outsiders wouldn't notice him.

So in the eyes of Lin Daguan, what is the difference between Gu Xiancheng's approach and sneaking? Just like a thief, I don't know what I am afraid of.

So Lin Tailai reminded Zhao Zhigao and said: "Old bachelors should be vigilant, they like to create political issues the most."

If something goes wrong in the country, you have to eat and hang, such as they sarcastically mock the Son of Heaven in public or something. ”

Zhao Zhigao was stunned and said, "Not really, right?" They're not crazy. ”

Lin Tailai persuaded: "All in all, the old bachelor still needs to strengthen vigilance, send more people, and be careful." ”

Zhao Zhigao said: "It's enough to have you, aren't the rumors in the market claiming that you can be a thousand?" ”

The day after tomorrow, the clear stream forces of Nanjing City poured out of the nest and came to the Taixue Ancestor Temple to worship the Confucian saint.

In addition to Nanjing Sanzhi, Gu Xiancheng was also present. In addition, Li Sancai's friend, Wei Yunzhen's fellow villager, and Li Hualong, the director of the Nanjing Ministry of Industry, also arrived.

Most of the people who came here were scholars, so this group of people wearing official robes was very eye-catching.

Gu Xiancheng, whose political status is not the highest, was surrounded by the first place in the middle at this time.

Among the stars of the Qingliu forces, Shen Li is from Henan, Zhao Nanxing and Wei Yunzhen are from Beizhili, Zou Yuanbiao is from Jiangxi, and Li San is from Shaanxi.

In the Jiangnan region, which is the most prosperous and wealthy in the world and has the largest group of scholars, there is no political star who can support it.

Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation of the territory of the Qingliu forces, they must support Gu Xiancheng.

What's the point of sacrificing one's own position a little? They're all righteous men and gentlemen.

Several people walked up the stairs majestically and walked to the platform at the entrance of the Dacheng Palace.

At this time, Gu Xiancheng suddenly said "ah", sat down directly, and then began to close his eyes and meditate.

Others gathered around Gu Xiancheng, as if they were Dharma protectors.

These people immediately blocked the entrance of the Dacheng Palace, making it difficult for other scholars to enter the hall, so they could only surround the steps outside the hall.

Li Sancai said loudly: "Li Sancai of the Ministry of Rites and Rites, my friend Gu Jingyang recently read the scriptures, and suddenly had a problem in my heart.

Last night, I suddenly dreamed of Mr. Kameyama, a great Confucian in the Song Dynasty, and in the dream, Mr. Kameyama asked him to come to worship Sage Kong today.

Now looking at Gu Jun's appearance, it seems that he has realized something in front of the Hall of Saints, and he dares to ask you not to disturb. ”

I can't beat it again, and the rest of the people can only watch it from below for the time being.

Fortunately, it didn't take much time to meditate and realize this time, Gu Xiancheng quickly opened his eyes, looked at the sky, and opened his mouth to recite:

"The first month of the Spring King. In March, Gong and Yi Yi's father were allied with contempt.

In the summer of May, Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan.

In the autumn and July, the king of heaven sent the emperor to return to Huigong and Zhongzi. In September, and the Song People's League stayed overnight.

There is a second month in the tenth month of winter, and the sacrifice is made. Childe is a teacher. ”

Anyone who has a little knowledge of the Four Books and Five Classics can hear that Gu Xiancheng is reciting the first article of "Spring and Autumn" "The First Year of the Hidden Emperor".

I just don't know what to do with this article, do you feel the truth?

Gu Xiancheng said again: "The sage's Spring and Autumn Period is a small word of righteousness, I can't understand it thoroughly, what is the gist of "Spring and Autumn", and where is it embodied?

Yesterday, Mr. Kameyama had a dream, and today he received the shadow of the saint in the Dacheng Hall, and suddenly he realized it!

The Spring and Autumn Decree is in the first article! The first word of heaven in the whole scripture highlights the true meaning of the saint! ”

Everyone recalled that the first word "heaven" appeared in the third sentence of the Spring and Autumn Classic, and the original sentence was "The king of heaven made the emperor come to return to Huigong and Zhongzi".

The interpretation is that King Zhou Ping sent people to give funeral goods to Huigong and Zhongzi of Lu State.

But at this time, Huigong's funeral had ended, and Zhongzi had not yet died, and the funeral goods were not suitable.

So the implicit implication is that King Zhou Ping's move is very unruly.

The first article of the Spring and Autumn Period said that King Zhou Ping did not conform to the etiquette law, and the deeper meaning required various interpretations by experts.

Gu Xiancheng still sat down and didn't stand up, as if he was very excited and said:

"Here you have to look at a celestial word. There is a way to cover the world, but there is a way for the world, but there is a way for the king;

There is no way in the world, and there is no way in the world, but there is no way for the king.

Before the word king, put forward a word of heaven, doesn't it mean that the world is ordered by the king, and the king is ordered by the sky.

The Spring and Autumn Decree, the true meaning of the saint, is in the first article! That's it! It's just one day! ”

Li Sancai turned around and shouted, "Gu Jun was awakened in the dark today, and he finally understood it!" ”

The atmosphere was very good, and the readers in the audience were talking. This exegesis is still very ingenious, and it is worth pondering.

Just as the atmosphere was advancing further, a loud laughing voice suddenly came from the hall, "But that's it! ”

Everyone turned their heads to look into the temple, and there were still people inside?

Suddenly, a broom flew out of the hall and fell beside Gu Xiancheng.

Although it didn't hit Gu Xiancheng, it also startled Gu Xiancheng and subconsciously stood up.

Immediately a figure appeared from the temple, holding another broom.

If you look closely, this person is tall, wearing coarse cloth short clothes, covered in dust, but he can't stop his breath.

After seeing the other party's eyes clearly, Gu Xiancheng seemed to be even more frightened, "Why are you here?" ”

The tall figure nodded and said, "It's just a pioneer temple sweeper, but when I hear Mr. Jingyang's interpretation, I feel that it's just like that." ”

This is not Suzhou, and there are still many people who don't know who that tall figure is.

I just thought, could it be that even a sweeper in the Guozi Prison dared to come forward to refute the university scholars?

I spent most of the two days on the road, and it was fragmented, but it would be nice to be able to write a few thousand words. It's normal to go home tomorrow night.
