This censor can handle it, he really sprays when something happens

Chapter 58 The Unity of Knowledge and Action

Song House.

Song Jue, the provincial servant under the door, finished his day's government affairs and returned home with his tired body.

Song Jue is 65 years old this year, long past the age of knowing the destiny and reaching the ear.

Throughout the court, officials who were older than him, such as the Taibao Cao Mu and the Grand Master Zhang Yu, were almost all trained to stay at home and ignore the affairs of the court.

Only Grand Tutor Zhao Kui, who was about the same age, still appeared in court from time to time.

Getting off the sedan chair, Song Jue walked into the gate of the Song Mansion, rubbing his sore back.

He said with emotion: "I really don't know how His Majesty is over [-] years old, how to keep working hard every day."

Song Jue obviously felt exhausted after returning home from government affairs every day.

The body is getting worse every day, which is in sharp contrast with a year ago.

"Bring the wine, bring the wine!"

"Young master, you really can't drink any more."

After crossing the front hall and coming to the back hall, Song Jue saw the precious grandson of the three generations of the Song family drinking in the yard.

The table was already full of empty wine jars.

At this time, he was drunk and angry with the maid.

"what happened?"

Song Jue waved his hand and asked the maid to go down to get the hangover soup.

Then he frowned and walked to Song Gongwen's side.

"Drinking so much wine, aren't you afraid of drinking your body down?"

Song Gongwen took a drink break, looked at Song Jue with a drunken eye, stood up unsteadily, and said:
"Grandpa, Li Qing...then Li Qing insulted me too much!

I have never been so humiliated in my life.

You have to help me, grandpa, you must help me! "

Since childhood, he was well-clothed and well-fed, and he was extremely talented in reading, and he was taught by a great Confucianism.

As a result, Song Gongwen went smoothly from childhood to adulthood, and never encountered any ups and downs.

First in the Tongsheng Examination, first in the Xiucai Examination, and when taking the Juren examination, he also took Jieyuan.

He was rated as one of the four great talents of the younger generation.

At that time, he had infinite scenery.

I just want to continue to make great strides during the general examination and palace examination, and win the first prize and the first prize.

Become the head of the four great talents and become the leader of the younger generation of scholars.

As a result, he was slapped heavily in the result of the general examination and palace examination.

Not to mention Huiyuan and No. [-] Scholar, he didn't even get in the first class.

Yesterday, under the persecution of his father, and the careful persuasion of his grandfather Song Jue and his mentor Wang Linfu, today he reluctantly went to Yuxianlou to attend the appointment.

I thought that I was able to go to Yuxian Tower because I gave Li Qing enough face.

Who knows that Li Qing would rather choose two humble scholars than him!

This is tantamount to breaking his face mercilessly among all the same age.

This made Song Gongwen unacceptable.

He thought that Li Qing was targeting him intentionally and trying to embarrass him.

Song Jue took the hangover soup hastily brought by the maid and fed Song Gongwen himself.

After Song Gongwen regained consciousness a little bit, he asked, "What's going on?"

Song Gongwen clutched his head with a splitting headache, and told Song Jue all about today's Yuxian Tower with a sullen expression on his face.

"Wang Yan, Sima Boyan, Wu Mingxiao, Yang Tianci, Ding Ning, Li Qian..." Song Jue kept chewing on the names of these people chosen by Li Qing.

Also analyze the family background they represent.

Finally, he suddenly realized, and said with a wry smile: "Kongwen, it's not that you are worse than them.

It's just that these candidates have already been decided, no matter how good you are, Li Qing will not choose you as Yushitai. "

Hearing this, Song Gongwen suddenly raised his head, and said with a grim face:

"Grandpa, have you seen it too? This Li Qing is clearly targeting his grandson! This grandson can't stand it for a moment!"

Song Jue comforted the excited Song Gongwen, calming down the anger in his heart.

"Including Kong Dexiang, these fourteen new scholars, after entering Yushitai, will form an extremely complicated power network.

They restrict each other and monitor each other.It can ensure to the greatest extent that Yushitai will be used by His Majesty in the end.

It is difficult for any family to intervene.

If these candidates were chosen by Li Qing himself, then he would be too scheming.

But he is only sixteen, four years younger than you.At such an age, it is impossible to have such calculations and city government. "

Before Song Jue finished speaking, Song Gongwen guessed what he was going to say later.

His eyes widened, and he said, "Grandpa is saying that all of this is arranged by His Majesty? Does His Majesty not want me to enter Yushitai?

But didn't your majesty say that as long as they are new scholars, they can be selected by Li Qing to enter Yushitai? "

Song Jue looked at the innocent-looking grandson who had been spoiled since he was a child, and sighed heavily.

"It's not that Your Majesty doesn't want you to enter Yushitai, but that he doesn't want our Song family to join Yushitai.

As for the specific reason, it's too complicated, and Grandpa can't tell you clearly. "

As he spoke, Song Jue's eyes changed.

"But Li Qing humiliated you in front of everyone, not only you, but my Song family can't afford to be ashamed.

Grandpa will help you settle this account sooner or later.

During the recent period, you are at home preparing for the official assessment.

Although you can only become a Zhima official after the assessment, as long as you do well, have grandpa to operate, and your mentor Wang Linfu's contacts, the official career may not be worse than those who entered Yushitai. "

Song Gongwen was overjoyed.

The grandparents and grandchildren chatted freely in the yard.

The same scene was staged in the mansions of the major families in Shengjing.

Those who entered Yushitai were instructed by the elders in the family.

It is another kind of scenery not to enter Yushitai.

Only those two humble scholars gathered together in Fangxie Building to celebrate.

When they returned to the inn to rest, they found that someone was already waiting at the inn.

……

At dusk, there is a red glow in the west, reflecting Qingyun Mountain beautifully.

After Li Qingsan returned home, half an hour before dinner, he picked up the sage book and started reading as usual.

He didn't mean to master all the principles of sages and sages.

But you know what you should know.

Still insist on reading every day, but also to review the past and learn the new.

For the same reason, if you read a lot, you can always comprehend something different.

Li Qing put down his book and murmured: "Reading today, I always feel different from before.

But what is the difference, but I can't tell.

It seems that there is a little more spirituality?
It seems that if I persist in reading, in the long run, it seems that I can evolve something and see a different world. "

Li Qing couldn't explain this sudden feeling.

If he had to describe it in detail, all he could think of was "the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu".

"Master, Prince Wang Yan is asking to see you outside the mansion."

Just as Li Qing was thinking about his state, a housekeeper in his fifties knocked on the door.

Although the butler was well dressed, judging from his appearance, palms, and skin features, he was obviously a farmer who had worked in the fields for half his life.

This person is a widowed old man in Lijia Village, Linping Prefecture.

Li Qing went out and said: "Uncle Biao, I told you that you don't need to call me master, just call me the same as before."

"How can this be done!" Hearing this, Uncle Biao shook his head like a rattle, and said very seriously:
"The master is the number one scholar, and now he is a sixth-rank official in the capital. I still call the master by his name, what is that like?

What's more, in the future, all the people who come to the master's house will be dignitaries, how can I not understand the superiority and inferiority, and let those people make fun of the master.

If the folks in the village know about this, they will not poke me in the back. After I die, I will not be allowed to enter the ancestral hall of my ancestors. "

Li Qing shook his head helplessly.

Soon, Uncle Biao led Wang Yan to the front hall.

Wang Yan's face was full of confusion, and his eyes were full of pain and struggle.

It is in stark contrast to the elegant demeanor of the angry horse in fresh clothes during the day.

"Brother Wang, what's wrong?" Li Qing was shocked when he saw Wang Yan's appearance.

As soon as Wang Yan saw Li Qing, he said, "My lord has learned from the ancients to understand the present, and he is always wise. There is something in Yan's mind that he can't understand, so I beg you to give me some advice."

Zhu Jiuyuan, the most respected teacher, caused Wang Yan's Sanguan to collapse directly.

The rest of the elders in the family also had the same idea as Zhu Jiuyuan.

He thought about it, and the only person who could solve his doubts was Li Qing.

So he immediately came to visit Li Qing's mansion.

"Brother Wang, please sit down." Li Qing arranged for Wang Yan to sit down, poured him another cup of tea, and asked, "I wonder what trouble Brother Wang encountered?"

Wang Yan said with a painful face: "It has been 15 years since I read the books of sages and learned the principles of sages since I was young.

The principles of sages and sages taught me the principles of life.

But today I discovered that I seemed to be a prisoner in chains.

There are many things that I can't do if I want to.

I even have to do some things I don't want to do because of external pressure, because of family pressure.

In vain, I have read sage books for 15 years, but I can't flaunt my own code of conduct in accordance with the principles of sages.

I'm very confused now, please help me. "

In this world, ninety-nine out of ten people are unable to do what they want to do due to various reasons.

This will not change because of his identity, status, or wealth.

After listening, Li Qing understood the pain in Wang Yan's heart.

Li Qing pondered for a long time while drinking the tea in his cup.

Finally, he said slowly: "Brother Wang can be called a gentleman if he feels pain because he can't practice the principles of sages.

Your situation, I also encountered in the early years.

Outsiders can't help in this matter, only if you figure it out, can you come out.

I can only give you seven words.

The unity of knowledge and action leads to conscience. "

Rumble!
When the seven words "knowledge, action, and conscience" fell, the sky suddenly changed dramatically.
