Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 680
"What's wrong?" Du Jinning raised his eyebrows. "Our sage, Confucius, is still riding around in a bullock cart to promote his theories. He has never seen him sitting at home, waiting for the emperor to come. If Confucius is sitting like you If the family is waiting for the pie to fall from the sky, the scholars all over the world will not believe in Confucianism, but law and yin and yang."

"..."

When she said this, the three of them fell into silence.

Du Jinning's words are so reasonable, how can it be broken?Unable to refute.

Seeing that the three of them were limped by her success, Du Jinning said directly: "Okay, that's it. You go back to write articles, and I will take advantage of Muxiu's free time today to figure out the general idea of ​​the two articles. At that time, when the political affairs are busy, I don’t know how long it will be delayed.”

She is a politician, not a pedantic literati and scholar. She is in deep danger and needs to be famous to save herself. How can she wait slowly for "the king comes from her own hands"?Naturally, whatever method can be used to quickly become famous can be used.

Don't you see, those people in the entertainment industry in the later generations all use this method if they want to become popular quickly?First blacken yourself, then whitewash; then let others discredit, and then whitewash.Under such black and white interlacing, after a few back and forth, it became red.As long as you have the strength to wash it white, you will never see a little black in the end.

It's called hype.

How can you mortals understand?

After the three of Lu Jiuyuan left with dreamy expressions on their faces, Du Jinning began to struggle with the articles he wrote.

When I first wrote the theory of psychology, it was because I guessed in the examination room that this Lu Jiuyuan was the psychology scholar Lu Jiuyuan in history. In order to match his preferences and overwhelm Qi Siyu, I wrote the theory of psychology under expediency.Later, the three of Lu Jiuyuan followed, and she was selfish again, so she didn't reveal the fact that she was not a believer in the theory of psychology.

What is Psychology?To put it bluntly, it is idealism.And as a good socialist youth who was "born in New China and grew up under the red flag", how could Du Jinning believe in idealism?That is naturally a firm materialist.

Although many philosophers in the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties believed in one theory first, and then switched to other theories.For example, Zhou Dunyi first advocated the study of the mind and then the Neo-Confucianism, but he had more than ten or even decades to make excessive changes.

She hadn't started advocating the study of mind, but she suddenly changed her mind and started to believe in Confucianism. She must have been beaten to death by Lu Jiuyuan and the others.

So, she is struggling now and doesn't know what to do.

After rubbing her chin and thinking for a while, she decided to use Wang Yangming's theory as a sideshow.Although Wang Yangming is also a study of the mind, the study of the mind has developed to him and has begun to transform.

Anyway, philosophy is still a virgin land, and everyone is still in the groping stage.She is not really a scholar, and the status of a master of Confucianism depends entirely on fooling around, so let her fool around first, as long as she justifies herself, she is not afraid.Because philosophy never lies in philosophy itself, but in how to explain it.

After making up his mind, Du Jinning settled down and began to write articles.

She has always been a quick shooter in writing articles.As long as the central idea is determined, the article can be written very quickly.In one afternoon and half an hour in the evening, she had already written two articles.

She called Yao Shuqi over, handed him two revised and transcribed articles, and told him to send them to Lu Jiuyuan tomorrow, wash them up and go to bed.

But as soon as the lights went out, she realized something was wrong.Her senses have always been keen, why does she feel that someone is spying on her?
This feeling was very bad. It reminded her of when Zhao Chang went to Gui Province, when she and Qi Muyuan came back from the academy, and walked into the alley, the chill felt from the back to the back of the head.

Could it be that the family sent someone to assassinate her?

With this thought, she couldn't lie down anymore, sat up and took out a dagger under the pillow and held it in her hand.Taking out the dagger hand, she stretched out her hand to the mechanism at the head of the bed, and hesitated in her heart.

She has always planned ahead. When she bought this house, she asked Qin Lao Liu to secretly hire a trick expert to set up traps in her bedroom and study.She only needs to press the mechanism in her hand, and the bed board will automatically turn over, and she will fall into the secret room, and there will still be well-made bedding and other things on the bed board on the other side, making it impossible to see the clue.

With her temperament, she naturally wouldn't set up a secret room where someone would catch her in the urn.Her secret room is tunneled and can lead to several exits.And there are hidden weapons in these tunnels, as long as she turns on the mechanism after she walks through, those who walk behind will be assassinated.

However, this is her last resort to save her life.Unless it was absolutely necessary, she didn't want to use it and expose it to others.

After quickly thinking about the current situation in her mind, she shook her head again.

"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall", what she said to Qi Bokun today is exactly the standard of life she believes in.Because of this, she plans everywhere, being cautious, and not putting herself in too dangerous a situation.Even taking the imperial examination, she felt that it was feasible, and took various precautions before participating.It's not just trying to get away with it.

So what she said to Qi Bokun today, although she made a detour and did not come forward herself, she felt that such a proposal did not touch the interests of the family—if she proposed a whipping law or other tax reforms aimed at the family Plan, that is courting death.

It didn't touch their interests, and the aristocratic family made Zhao He unhappy because of Shen Langzhong's matter. They will definitely not attack her again in a short time, so as to provoke Zhao He's vigorous suppression.

Zhao He has the military power in his hands, which really angered him. If one or two aristocratic families are used as chickens to scare monkeys, the aristocratic families can only shrink their heads.What they want to do to her is to use some tricks like Shen Langzhong's incident.

Therefore, it should not be the aristocratic family who peeped at her.

So, besides the family, who could it be?Although she had grudges with some people, those people would at most hinder her in her imperial examination or official career, and they would never assassinate her under the eyes of the emperor after she became a scholar of the Imperial Academy.If he wanted to kill her, he should have killed her long before she became a Jinshi.

So the Qi family and others who had a grudge against her were also ruled out.

It is neither the person who has a grudge against her, but the person who is curious about her.

And the one who can send out such a master, apart from the aristocratic family, is the emperor.

After peeling off the cocoon, the answer is ready to come out.

Thinking of this, she relaxed, and withdrew her hand that had been extended to the secret passage switch.

She squinted her eyes and thought about Zhao He's intentions. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that Zhao He didn't need to have any doubts about her.After all, her background couldn't be more innocent. Qi Bokun has watched her grow up since she was ten years old. Even though she is very intelligent and close to a monster, Qi Bokun has a reasonable explanation.So it's good intentions for Zhao Hu to spy on her, right?
Is this to protect her from being assassinated by the family?
Thinking of it this way, she felt a little dumbfounded, and her tense heartstrings relaxed accordingly.

But just to be on the safe side, she didn't put down the dagger in her hand.Moreover, he was very alert that night.

All night.
