The autumn wind is bleak, the temperature has plummeted, and winter is about to begin. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

But at this moment, Su Lin, dressed in a green shirt and thin clothes, sat in front of the bookcase, the doors and windows were not closed, and the cold wind was blowing directly but he didn't know it.

"I ...... I actually crossed over. ”

His eyes were a little dull, and Su Lin still couldn't accept the current facts.

A moment ago, he was just an ordinary junior in high school, complaining about the "Analects" that must be memorized in the college entrance examination in Chinese class.

But now, in the blink of an eye, he was no longer him, but a different person.

Now he is also called Su Lin, a native of Fengle County, Wu State, Tianren Continent, fifteen years old this year, his parents are dead, but he has a vicious stepmother who is the daughter of a merchant.

"There really is such a world in the world, Confucius is the supreme sage, and the Analects is the "Holy Book" of the Tianren Continent.

There are nine countries in the entire Tianren Continent, but they all practice Confucianism and Taoism, and practice imperial examinations...... This...... It's like a world of Confucianism and Taoism......"

Struggling to digest the memories in his mind, Surin gasped.

He never imagined that the "Analects", which he had been scolded by himself as a useless test-taking textbook, would have such a lofty status in the Tianren Continent.

"This must be God's punishment for me, or a big joke on me.

I scolded the Analects for being useless, saying that Confucianism poisoned people's thoughts, and then God sent me to such a world of Confucianism and Taoism.

Everyone respects Confucianism and Confucianism, regards Confucius as a sage, and governs the country with Confucianism and Taoism. And I, on the other hand, am still a Confucian student who is desperately studying the Confucian classics......"

Completely understanding the world he was in now, Su Lin could only smile bitterly.

"In my previous life, I only took the Analects in one subject, but now, if I want to get ahead and live well in this world, I must learn the Confucian classics as high as a mountain, and I must be able to write poems and lyrics. ”

In the Tianren Continent, Confucius sanctified with Confucianism and benevolence, taught without class, helped the sons of a hundred schools of thought to achieve sub-saints or semi-saints, and then combined the power of all saints to build the Great Wall with thought as bricks and stones.

It enclosed the activity area of the entire human race, completely blocking the invasion of the demon beasts and the barbarian Rongdi clan.

At the same time, the Hundred Sages of the Sons created the temple, set up the ten major literary positions, and all countries used the imperial examination to select scholars, completely consolidating such a Confucianism and Taoism world.

"It turns out that in this world of Confucianism and Taoism, thought is the most powerful weapon.

Confucian scholars are no longer powerless, and as long as scholars open their minds, they can absorb holy power from the Great Wall built by the saints.

Use words, poems, words, and even articles as the carrier of ideas to induce the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth to transform into Yuan Li to kill the enemy. ”

When Su Lin thought that poetry could be turned into tangible objects and power, his heart was filled with excitement and ripples.

Because, although the history of Tianren Continent is similar to ancient China, it split into nine countries after the Han Dynasty, and the history and characters after the Han Dynasty are not at all the same as those in ancient China.

There are no literary giants and historical celebrities after the Han Dynasty in history. This also means.

The poems and songs that can be passed down through the ages in Su Lin's mind would rise if they appeared in this Confucian and Taoist world!

However, as soon as Su Lin remembered that he was now fifteen years old and still had not opened his mind, his heart immediately felt cold.

Enlightenment is a process that every scholar in the Tianren Continent has to go through, or to be precise, if you don't become enlightened, you can't be considered a real Confucian student.

The so-called enlightenment is to use a sentence containing thoughts to open wisdom.

This sentence can be the words of the sage Confucius, or it can be the sub-sage and semi-sage scriptures, and the third point is the scriptures of the great Confucianism, and the interpretation of the sage classics by the Hanlin and scholars.

There is no doubt that the higher the level of Kaizhi's sentence, the higher the rank that can be achieved in the future.

Using the words of a saint to open his mind, even if it is the lowest half-saint word, the first holy power absorbed after enlightening his wisdom is majestic and extraordinary, and it has the potential to soar into the sky and fight bulls.

Whenever this kind of genius is born, it is a great fortune for a country.

Because this means that another Confucian who is expected to become at least the level of a great Confucian has been born.

But there are too few such geniuses, hundreds of millions of people in the Nine Kingdoms, tens of millions of Confucian students, and it is estimated that only one genius is born every ten years who enlightens his wisdom with holy words.

Moreover, almost all of these are only enlightened with half-holy words, and the final achievements are all above the Great Confucian. As for the words of the sub-saints and the enlightened ones, almost all of them have achieved half-saints in the end.

And those who can really use the words of Confucius to enlighten their wisdom, for thousands of years, it seems that only Mencius and Confucius's grandson Si are two.

Because the words of Confucius and sages are too obscure and profound, often there is a deeper meaning under the meaning of a sentence.

Moreover, many of the words of Confucius and the sages have many explanations, even if they have reached the rank of Jinshi and University Scholar, it is impossible to know all the details, how can a child who is just a teenager know the holy will and open up wisdom with this?

Of course, the words of wisdom are not absolutely restricting the future development potential.

Among the Nine Kingdoms, there were also those who used the words of scholars to explain the scriptures of the saints, and finally achieved the rank of semi-saint.

"Hey, don't say it's the remarks of Jinshi and scholar now, even if it's a poem that lifts people, this Su Lin before can't even be enlightened.

Children from other families are generally six or seven years old, and after reciting enlightenment books like "Thousand Character Text" and "Hundred Family Names" in this world and learning to read and write, they will be able to open their minds one after another, and at the latest they will only be twelve or thirteen years old.

But this Surin ...... is so stupid that even Xiucai's almost vernacular verses can't make him enlightened...... How did I end up on such a scrappy body?"

He couldn't feel a little of the legendary holy power on his body, and combined with his memory, Su Lin knew that his fifteen-year-old body had not yet enlightened his mind.

Without enlightenment and holy power, even if you are not a true Confucian student, it is impossible to be qualified to take the imperial examination.

Su Lin thought about it even more, if he hadn't become a Confucian by the age of sixteen, even the identity of the scholar clan would be taken away by Su Wen, the son of the black-hearted and vicious stepmother.

"No, I must be open-minded, even if it is in the words of Xiucai, I must be open-minded before I become an adult next year. ”

If he lost his status as a scholar, Su Lin would have become a commoner, and it would be impossible for him to go to the free school provided by the state for the children of the scholar clan.

The status of the scholar clan is a status symbol given by the state to Confucian scholars with literary status. Xiucai's civil title is granted to the scholar family, and the person can be a doctor, and the jinshi is the secretary, and the jinshi and above are all princes.

The status of the scholar clan can be hereditary, but it can only be passed on to the eldest son.

Su Lin's father, Su Jingtian, was fortunate to be admitted to the Xiucai literary position at the age of thirty and obtained the status of a scholar, Su Jingtian died unexpectedly, and the identity of the scholar was naturally inherited by Su Lin, the eldest son.

However, if Su Lin had not been able to enlighten himself and become a Confucian scholar when he reached adulthood at the age of sixteen, according to the decree of the Wu State, this scholar status could be inherited by his stepmother, Su Wen, the son of Su Liu.

"The status of the scholar clan is a hereditary reward of the state for Confucian scholars with a literary degree, not only can they go to the scholar clan school for free, but they can also receive one or two silver medals from the county government every month.

Now I am under the persecution and abuse of the Su Liu clan, and my life is already very difficult, if I no longer have the identity of a scholar when I become an adult, I am afraid that I will starve to death on the streets......"

The more Su Lin thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he broke out in a cold sweat, although his family background was just ordinary in his previous life, he was never short of food and clothing.

But now, in this strange world of Confucianism and Taoism, both parents are dead, and there is a black-hearted and vicious stepmother and her child forced each other, if there is no longer the identity of the scholars, Su Lin doesn't know how to survive?

Just thinking like this, Su Lin heard a cold snort from a woman at the door: "Su Lin, this is your meal today." ”

Su Lin turned around and saw that it was his stepmother Su Liu, dressed in a red Luo Qi skirt, wearing gold and silver, but with an evil face, holding a bowl of gruel in her hand, she took a few steps forward and threw it on Su Lin's desk, and the porridge water splashed out.

Seeing a few books open on Su Lin's desk, he sneered evilly: "Little rabbit, don't waste your efforts in vain." Even if you see death, you can't be enlightened. The identity of this Su family's scholar must be my son Su Wen's. ”

"Bold Su Liu Clan! Even if I can't be enlightened, I am still a scholar now, how dare you be so rude to me?"

As soon as she saw this black-hearted mother-in-law, the previous picture of Su Lin being bullied by her immediately felt empathy, and Su Lin's heart was full of anger, and he stood up suddenly.

I don't know why, the words about women's three obedience and four virtues in the mourning clothes chapter of "The Book of Rites" immediately came to my mind, and I pointed at Su Liu and scolded:

"There is a cloud in the Book of Rites: 'Women have three righteousness, and there is no special way. Therefore, if you do not marry your father, you will marry your husband, and your husband will die from your son. 'Now that my father has died early, I am the eldest son of the Su family, inheriting the identity of the scholar family, and I am the real head of the family.

You are a mere woman, restless and self-conscious, taking care of the family business for my Su family, but you have repeatedly bullied me when I was young and abused me, so you are not afraid that I will sue the county magistrate, put you in prison, and then parade through the streets, so that the whole county will know your name as a wicked woman!"

After Su Lin finished speaking, he picked up the bowl of gruel and smashed it at Su Liu's feet, the porcelain bowl fell apart, and the porridge splashed Su Liu's big red Luo Qi skirt.

Startled, Su Liu retreated straight to the wall, looking at Su Lin in front of him with a frightened expression.

She never imagined that Su Lin, a nerd who had always been weak and weak, would attack herself with the three obedience and four virtues in the "Book of Rites".

Su Liu wanted to open his mouth to refute and slander Su Lin, but in the face of the holy words in the "Book of Rites", he was speechless and did not dare to resist at all.

In this world of Confucianism and Taoism, how could a long-haired woman like her dare to refute the words of a saint?
