Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

From that day on, the Feng residence completely closed its doors to thank guests.

This time, no matter whether it was relatives or friends, they were all blocked out of the door.

In the following days, Feng Yibo began to follow the routine step by step.

During the day, he works in the ministry.

Even if you never place an order, you can't stop the harassment from all sides.

From time to time, officials from the Ministry of Etiquette came to him with embarrassment.

Bring messages from various forces.

This made him accidentally find out the faction composition of most officials in the Ministry of Rites.

Of course, he still ignored these invitations.

At the same time, in order to avoid someone blocking the car.

There are more than a dozen guards around him.

Although these guards were not wearing armor, they all had evil looks on their faces.

Just by looking at the cold eyes, you know it's not easy to mess with.

Anyone who dares to stop a car in the street will go up and beat him up first.

This kind of beating is in vain.

Dare to intercept the chariots and horses of the hereditary second-rank General Zhenhai in the street, even if it makes trouble in the government, it is useless.

There is a high probability that he will be punished again.

This made all parties who wanted to talk to him privately return in vain.

In the mansion, besides playing with his daughter, he also chatted with his elders.

Feng Yibo pays homage to Buddha, discusses poetry, sleeps together and so on every day.

There are so many different things.

He himself lived a fulfilling life, and so did his wives and concubines.

The joy of it is really not for outsiders.

Miaoyu also acted as a secretary when she was resting.

The two compiled textbooks and talked about articles together.

The days passed leisurely like this, and it was half a month in a blink of an eye.

Today is Hugh Mu.

During the intermission of compiling the textbook, Feng Yibo and Miaoyu studied Buddhism again.

During the research process, due to his carelessness, he was intimidated by Miaoyu 36 Buddha's supernatural power.

Although reluctantly using the method of entrusting with both hands, Miaoyu still couldn't stand Miaoyu shaking her waist.

Feng Yibo was careless for a moment, and immediately froze there.

The maids outside were dedicated to their duties, and they stayed there for several hours.

Until Miaoyu lost her strength, she waved her hand to absorb the magical powers of 36 Buddhas.

Feng Yibo's whole body softened to the chair.

Even if there is no more Buddha voice in the house, the servant girls still dare not disturb.

She waited for a while, and then whispered a test outside the door:
"Master? There is something to report in the front yard."

"what's up?"

Hearing the response from inside, the servant girl breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said:
"Returning to Uncle, there are frequent messages from the door at the second gate. The mother-in-law has come over twice before, saying that Uncle Liu and Uncle Yang have been waiting in the hall for several hours. No matter how they refuse to leave, they insist on telling them in person. You apologized and said that the uncle was gone, so they stayed there."

If it were someone else, they might have been thrown out by the door.

But these two are Feng Yibo's close friends, and everyone in the Feng residence knows it.

Before his uncle spoke, Menzi didn't dare to deal with it lightly.

Hearing this, Feng Yibo hurriedly helped Miaoyu tidy up her clothes, and said in his mouth:

"You ask people to take them to the hall to wait first, and I will go to change clothes."

I thought Liu Zheng was naturally free and easy, so this matter was nothing.

Although it is inevitable to feel guilty, it is not enough.

But since the last time, Liu Zheng has never seen Feng Yibo face to face.

He didn't even stop for a moment when he glanced at the meeting.

This made Feng Yibo think that this friendship was over.

It is inevitable that there will be some disappointment and sadness in my heart.

Unexpectedly, after half a month, he came to apologize again.

And uncharacteristically, he played a rogue in the hall.

This sounds like Yang Mingxin's style.

But he also followed, so it was probably persuaded by him.

After all, Feng Yibo couldn't let go of the friendship between the two.

He thought for a while, took a textbook from the bookshelf, turned around and said:
"Help me sort out the manuscript, and I'll go meet them."

Miaoyu had also tidied up her clothes, sat on a chair and replied lazily:
"Go, sir, I'm here."

Feng Yibo went back to his room and changed into his regular clothes, before heading towards the main hall.

As soon as he arrived, Liu Zheng and Yang Mingxin who were waiting in the hall greeted him.

Before he could speak, Liu Zheng knelt on one knee, cupped his fists and said:
"Yibo, I'm here to make amends for you, brother!"

Feng Yibo hurried forward to help him up, but when he stretched out his hand, he found it.

Liu Zheng was actually carrying a bundle of thorns on his back.

This situation made him a little dumbfounded, and while helping Liu Zheng up, he joked:

"Brother Haoran, no wonder I haven't seen you for the past few days, but I went to learn opera! I just don't know which song this song is about?"

After being supported by Feng Yibo, Liu Zheng still had a face full of shame.

He was about to speak, but Feng Yibo teased again:
"I got it! This is "Li Kui Bears the Thorn"!"

"Li Kui Bearing the Thorn" is a play in the Water Margin Opera, and in some genres it is called "Bearing the Thorn and Pleading Guilt".

Liu Zheng, who was originally ashamed, said angrily when he heard the words:

"I'm not as dark as you!"

Li Kui is known as the black whirlwind, and he is always the image of a black-faced man in operas.

Even though he was ashamed, Liu Zheng still did not forget to protect his appearance.

While talking and joking, Yang Mingxin also came to help, untied the thorns on his back together, and said:
"He originally sang "Heroes of Generals", but what you said is really more like Li Kui."

"General Xianghe" is also a story of pleading guilty to a thorn, but the protagonist is completely different from "Li Kui Bearing a Thorn".

One is the story of General Lian Po and Prime Minister Lin Xiangru, and the other is the story of Li Kui, the black whirlwind, and Song Jiang, the timely rain.

Although they are all apologies, it is obvious that "The Harmony of Generals" is more forceful.

In just a few words, the three of them regained their old tacit understanding.

The thorns on Liu Zheng's body were untied, and the grievance between the two of them was also untied.

"Hahaha!"

Feng Yibo laughed a few times when he heard Yang Mingxin's words, then shook his head and said:

"Let me just say, even if brother Haoran wanted to apologize, he wouldn't be so stalking and live in my foyer? Now that you have made such a move, it must be your idea, brother Xinmin!"

With Liu Zheng's personality, it is estimated that he could only leave the book and leave if he was told by his disciples.

But Yang Mingxin is informal and stalking is nothing.

This drama of pleading guilty is even less like Liu Zheng's style.

An apology must be apologized, but a face-to-face apology is already the limit.

So it must be Yang Mingxin's idea to create such a big show.

"The parents who gave birth to me, and those who know me are all in this room."

Yang Mingxin was still as funny as ever, and said with a smile:
"It's not that I know you won't blame him, but his shame is not fake, so I can only find a way to give him a step down."

When Liu Zheng came here, he was full of shame, but now after such a toss, there is only shame left.

Hearing Yang Mingxin's words, he sighed:

"I thank you!"

Seeing this, Feng Yibo immediately added fuel to the fire:
"Come here! Take this twig out and place it in the hall for the guests to pay their respects to."

"No!"

When Liu Zheng heard this, his face turned pale with shock.

Yang Ming said on the news, but gloated:

"Paste the name on it! His name is Liu Zheng!"

At this time, the servants had already come up, and Liu Zheng made a gesture to protect Jingtiao.

"Hahaha!"

Feng Yibo laughed a few times before waving his hands and saying:

"Just kidding, send the Vitex to the kitchen and burn it, so that someone can serve some good tea."

"Yes!" The servant retreated in response.

Following the removal of the thorns, the three sat down in the main hall, and another servant offered tea.

"Wow~!"

Liu Zheng took a sip, then exhaled comfortably, and said earnestly:
"Actually, I know that Yibo didn't blame me, but I really couldn't get over this hurdle in my heart. After I went back that day, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. In the end, my mind was full of what you said about being a gentleman."

Hearing this, Feng Yibo couldn't help laughing, and asked:

"After all this, is there anything to gain?"

He guessed that Liu Zheng would definitely be affected by those words, but he didn't know how much the influence would be.

At this moment, Liu Zheng himself mentioned it, so he asked a question.

"I thought I was lying to you for the sake of righteousness, but whether it was true or not, I was also at fault first, but if I said I didn't come to see you because of this, it would not be me."

Liu Zheng didn't respond positively, but continued to talk about the past, and then responded:
"What's more, the last time was for righteousness, and this time it is also for righteousness."

"Oh?"

Feng Yibo was a little puzzled, he frowned and asked:

"Could it be that brother Haoran is still thinking about that?"

When he heard that Liu Zheng was righteous again, he thought it was because of the terms.

But what the other party said didn't look like that, which naturally made Feng Yibo puzzled.

"of course not."

Liu Zheng shook his head when he heard the words, then sat up straight, and said seriously:
"I have checked the ceremonies and annotations of various factions in the past few days, and I feel that what you said that day is very reasonable! Today's academic atmosphere should also be swept away by the new theory!"

It turned out that during the past half month, he wasn't just wallowing in shame.

Instead, they were looking for classics and consulting materials.

Obviously, he wanted to find some evidence for Feng Yibo's words that day.

Speaking of this, he got up and bowed to Feng Yibo again, saying:
"So today, in addition to apologizing, I also want to tell you that you start and I will practice."

These words carry a lot of weight.

It is roughly equivalent to wishing to be attached to the tail and worship Feng Yibo as the eldest brother.

Feng Yibo was slightly moved, but seeing the calmness in his eyes, he asked:
"Brother Haoran, how do you plan to practice it?"

Although Feng Yibo was surprised by Liu Zheng's reaction, he didn't find it strange.

When he saw Zhang Songyue, he left seeds for Liu Zheng.

I just don't know when this seed will germinate.

The only thing he didn't expect was that only half a month later, this seed not only germinated.

It still grew into grass in Liu Zheng's heart.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng said with a little regret:
"I also discussed it with the teacher in depth, and he did not object to the comparison."

Feng Yibo heard the deep meaning in his words, shook his head with a smile and said:
"But you won't support it either, will you?"

With Zhang Songyue's style, not to object is already the limit.

He must have had a headache to death when Liu Zheng asked about this.

I just don't know if he regretted using Liu Zheng to lie to himself.

"That's right, it was my imagination that day."

Seeing that Feng Yibo guessed it, Liu Zheng nodded in disappointment, and explained:
"When you are in the position of teacher, you need to be cautious in every move. How can you start a dispute between schools for no reason?"

Although he explained to Zhang Songyue, the disappointment in his eyes could not be concealed.

Having said that, he raised his head and smiled wryly again, and added:
"At most, when we succeed, we will give a boost behind the scenes."

This was a promise he got after entangled with Zhang Songyue for several days.

For the sake of righteousness, he can help Zhang Songyue cheat Feng Yibo once.

But Zhang Songyue refused to speak out for the righteousness of the students all over the world.

Liu Zheng actually understood Zhang Songyue's actions, but he was still somewhat disappointed.

Hearing this, Feng Yibo nodded without feeling strange at all, and said very relievedly:
"It's good to be the icing on the cake."

Being able to agree to this level, he felt that Zhang Songyue treated Liu Zheng really well.

As long as this works properly, it is equivalent to an endorsement for Liu Zheng.

It's just that Liu Zheng still doesn't understand Zhang Songyue's painstaking efforts, although this painstaking effort has a premise.

Seeing that he seemed to have expected it, Liu Zheng was slightly surprised, but still said:

"So, I came to you today just to discuss what we should do next."

He wants to practice the way of a gentleman, so he naturally wants to use the meaning of "big brother at the beginning".

"Actually, my suggestion is to comment on the scriptures."

Feng Yibo smiled, but the few words he uttered were as heavy as Mount Tai!
Commenting on scriptures is tantamount to opening up a new theory!
Could it be that he wants to directly fight Neo Confucianism?

Compared with the integration of the strengths of the various factions he said before, the difficulty has escalated too much.

It can be said that one is in the sky and the other is in the ground!
Liu Zheng and Yang Mingxin looked at each other, and they could see each other's shock.

After a while, Liu Zhengcai hesitated and said:
"This...how are we qualified?"

Not to mention them, even Zhang Songyue couldn't do it.

The difficulty of annotating scriptures is not as simple as rebellion.

In other words, it is creating the opposite of Neo-Confucianism.

"Gongyang does not belong to the eight schools of Confucianism, but just a branch. The difference from other schools is that "Spring and Autumn" is the main one."

Feng Yibo had been prepared for a long time, he smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said again:

"Nowadays Neo-Confucianism is prosperous, and scholars all over the world think it is authentic, so why don't we establish a branch of Neo-Confucianism?"

That being said, it is somewhat feasible.

If directly annotating scriptures is rebellion, then establishing a branch of Neo-Confucianism is offering soil to belong to.

"what do you mean……"

Liu Zheng was slightly taken aback, thinking that what he meant was to be like Gongyang Confucianism, only looking for an annotated book.

In this case, you can find a relatively remote door.

such as……

"As long as we can express our thoughts, it doesn't matter who the bet is."

Before Liu Zheng could decide which one to choose, Feng Yibo spoke again.

"Since it's not qualified to comment on the words of a sage, why don't we just comment on Cheng Zhu?"

Liu Zheng and Yang Ming were stunned by the news.

This is not called commentary, isn't this the study of Neo-Confucianism?
This is basically what the Great Confucians did.

Speaking of this, some people may think that Feng Yibo needs to learn from his heart.

But in fact, Feng Yibo was already prepared.

"For example, Zhu Zi said in his commentary on 'Investigating things to gain knowledge': All things must have their appearance and inner essence, and every plant and tree contain the truth."

He took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to Liu Zheng, and said:

"Then we can start from the most basic gewu, and this book is some of the laws that I have observed in the world and everything in my spare time. It can be regarded as some of the gains from gewu, so I named it..."

Liu Zheng took a look and saw two large characters on the cover.

At this time, Feng Yibo also happened to mention the title of the book:

"physics!"
