Saint of the Confucian way

The moonlight formed by "shuitiagetou" dissipated, and Fang Yun still remained in his study.

Fang Yun stretched out his hand and saw a book that only he could see. It was the thirty six strategies.

After the completion of concealing the world and encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao, the 36th plan derived "secretly crossing the Chencang" because it absorbed the first article of Han Xin's three chapters.

Now, in the thirty six stratagem, there is a bitter meat stratagem, but the text is very dim.

The bitter meat scheme was originally one of the thirty-six schemes.

Fang Yun put away the Thirty-six Strategies and guessed the reason why the bitter meat strategy appeared.

The world attaches importance to learning for practical use. This time, I used the art of war "bitter meat trick". Even if I didn't study as hard as before, once the trick is completed, it will be directly written. Many soldiers' families in the past dynasties have achieved mediocre justice, but because of their great achievements in the art of war, after the test of actual combat, their literary position gradually improved and finally became a great Confucian.

Fang Yun sat on the bed and thought about the details and influence of this bitter meat strategy as he studied the classics and righteousness strategy theory, so as to make the thirty six strategies more perfect.

Fang Yun realized that after the release of the list on the fifth day of junior high school, there must be corrupt scholars accusing him, but he was already majoring in Confucianism and Taoism and minor in the art of war. He had such a good opportunity to punish the curfew without the art of war. He was not even as good as a corrupt Confucian.

Not long ago, Fang Yun heard messy footsteps outside, followed by banging on the door.

Fang Yun straightened his collar in front of the bronze mirror and walked steadily to the door. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard a man outside scold: "reckless, can't even knock on the door? Drag these two people to the street, block their mouths and whip a hundred whips."

"Spare your life, my Lord! I thought..."

Fang Yun heard his voice very familiar. The person who ordered it was Chen Xibi, the general of Dayuan mansion. He smiled and thought that these soldiers' families were not all reckless men. Whether they were deliberately arranged or naturally, he took the idea himself.

When Fang Yun opened the door, he saw that there were many torches outside, making a beeping sound, flashing knives and guns, and people's eyes hurt with cold light.

The sound of whips on the flesh kept coming from the corner of the street.

Chen Xibi turned over and dismounted without expression. He held up a military order in his hand and said, "Fang Yun has suffered national grace but desecrated the saints. It is a great crime! The Empress Dowager ordered that Fang Yun be prohibited from traveling until Wen Xiang came! Surround the Fang family! If anyone leaks, bring his head to me!"

"Yes!" he saw the two teams running away and circling behind Fang's house.

After Chen Xibi finished, he looked around at all the soldiers and horses, then patted his left arm, which had just grown for a few days, and said, "Fang Yun's crime is extremely evil, you all know, but Lao Tzu's arm grew out of the fruit given by Marquis Fang Wenhou! As long as the imperial edict of seizing the Lord has not arrived one day, he is the Marquis of Jingguo! You know what to do!"

"Yes!" all the soldiers said in unison.

The whips at the corner of the street were louder.

Looking at Fang Yun, Chen Xi smiled and said, "the emperor's life is on me. I can't help it. Now that the business is finished, let's talk about private affairs."

"Please, Mr. Chen." Fang Yun made a gesture of invitation and turned to walk into the yard.

When Chen Xi pen entered the yard, he closed the door first, and then went to Fang Yun to isolate the outside world with his courage.

"It's really like what the letter said?" Chen Xi stared at Fang Yun with bright eyes.

Fang Yun said, "don't talk about it."

"Well, don't lose heart. We don't take it seriously. When I first joined the army, I was much worse than you. I'll tell you when I have time to drink. The Empress Dowager banned you to protect you. It's said that it's three years. It's estimated that you can be released in a year or two. Don't think too much. You're Fang Zhenguo. The future of Jingguo depends on you after all!"

"Thank you, Lord Chen." Fang Yun said.

"My men are outside. They can do whatever they want. If anyone dares to be disrespectful, tell me back!" Chen Xi said.

"Yes."

"Since you don't want to say more, I'll go and fight the imperial examination again at the beginning of September next year! Goodbye!" Chen Xi's pen is a military style after all.

"Farewell."

After seeing off Chen Xi's pen, Fang Yun threw his hands at the soldiers outside the door and said, "thank you."

The soldiers saluted one after another.

After closing the door, Fang Yun went back to his bedroom to sleep and didn't get up until the morning.

Fang Yun walked out of the yard and found several more people in the yard. One of them was the old housekeeper of his uncle Fang Shouye's family.

"Young master, are you awake? The young master said you are short of people here, so he sent us to take charge of your daily life and meals. Just say what you want, and I'll have someone prepare it for you."

Fang Yun nodded and said, "just as usual. I don't taboo. Can you come and go freely?"

"You can enter, but you can't go out. People who buy vegetables can go in and out, but according to the rules, two soldiers follow."

Fang Yun said, "it will be over on the fifth day at most. Please."

"No trouble. In my life, there is no barrier I can't cross. If I fall down, get up and continue walking, I always have to look forward. We Dayuan people support you!"

"Thank you." Fang Yun smiled and thanked.

After breakfast, Fang Yun began to read biographies. Today's biographies are not as many as in the past. Many people come to persuade and comfort themselves. Some people don't say anything about abandoning the exam at all, but just say something very common, just like normal communication.

Only a few people sent letters of reprimand or even attack.

After a while, many people wrote to accuse Cai he of being shameless, saying that they would never do that.

And Cai he soon sent a letter.

"I have announced that I will cut my robe and break my righteousness with you, and the voice of scolding me is like a tide. Now many scholars and officials in Jiangzhou even cut their robes and break their righteousness with me. Well, the people of Jing have backbone and have not fallen into the well because you are in a low ebb. The Qing state and the Wu state have indeed made a move. Many scholars have joined hands to concoct a Book of all peoples, which will be sent to the holy courtyard immediately and ask for its weight Punish you. The more they make trouble, the deeper they regret! "

In addition to Cai he, Zeng yuan, Zong Wude and others have successively sent outside news to let Fang Yun know more about the current situation.

After Jingguo people learned about this, except for scolding at the beginning, almost everyone supported Fang Yun. Even those who scolded Fang Yun at the beginning said it was just a small mistake, which is understandable.

The scholars of the Qing and Wu States, who had been hostile to Jing for many years, opened their mouths and denounced them. A large number of literary associations appeared everywhere. These literary associations even asked to write poems and articles on the topic of attacking Fang Yun. People with lofty ideals in Qingguo and Wuguo called on everyone to be calm, but only a few people were calm.

As for other countries, the reaction is not so big. They don't think there is any problem with Fang Yun's abandonment of the exam. At most, they say two words about young people's success.

After reading all the books, Fang Yun found that he could do nothing but read.

All the books in the study had been moved away, but it was difficult for Fang Yun, so he was immersed in the world of strange books all day except eating.

With the improvement of the literary position, the literary palace and courage are strong. Fang Yun's reading speed has exceeded ten lines at a glance. In the world of rare books, it is faster, almost one page at a glance, and the pages are blowing like the wind.

Because these books are not holy classics, but various miscellaneous books, Fang Yun has such speed, and with the help of courage and talent, he can fully understand the contents of the books.

Every time he reads an hour, Fang Yun takes a quarter of an hour off and then reads again without interruption. Not to fully absorb the knowledge in the book, but to have a preliminary understanding. With the accumulation of time, you are bound to grow up.

If you find a Book of great use, Fang Yun will pick it out and read it carefully after a while, so as to eat it thoroughly.

In the afternoon, Fang Yun was reading with his eyes closed. He heard a familiar cry at the door, so he went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, I saw more than 20 people in black robes standing outside the door. Each person's cuffs and necklines were embroidered with peaks, which were the black mountain clothes worn by the whole people.

"Qingguo is not fun, so we decided to go back to Dayuan mansion for a few days." Li Fanming smiled and shook the fan in his hand, while the big rabbit jumped over with a carrot in his mouth, then straightened up and handed the carrot to Fang Yun with two front claws, but his eyes were reluctant to part with the carrot.

Fang Yun smiled, touched the head of the big rabbit and said, "you eat, I'll get it."

The big rabbit held up the carrot again and refused to take it back.

Fang Yun pushed the carrot back and said, "I won't eat it. You eat it."

The big rabbit put away the carrots, sat on the ground and looked up at Fang Yun.

Fang Yun arched his hand and said, "thank you. I'm all right. Since the Empress Dowager has ordered me, I can't say more. When I regain my freedom, we'll drink wine together and talk about the world."

Many people flashed regret or regret in their eyes, but soon returned to smile.

"Since you don't say it, we don't ask. Fang Zhenguo in our hearts will not be hit by an imperial examination."

"It's hard to say about Fang Yun. Maybe the imperial examination will be hit next year."

Everyone smiled with kindness.

Fang Yun was helpless. Since the bitter meat plan had been made, he had to continue the performance, forced out a smile and said, "thank you."

Fang Yun's smile at the moment was very unnatural. People thought he had an unresolved heart knot. Li Fanming immediately said, "we've come to see you off! If people in Jingguo dare to harm you, I'll contact the holy families of Qiguo and rob you to Qiguo!"

"Shu is a good place. Fang Yun, you should consider it clearly!"

"Come to Jiaguo!"

The crowd deliberately joked and coaxed.

Looking at this ordinary scene, Fang Yun was full of emotion. He had thousands of words in his heart, but he couldn't speak, so he had to bow his hands.

"Let's go and come back tomorrow!"

Everyone said goodbye to Fang Yun.

Fang Yun closed the door, shook his head and smiled bitterly. After the list was released, he must spend money. He must pack the best restaurant in Dayuan mansion to entertain the people.

The gate of Fang Yun's house was surrounded by officers and soldiers, while the state literary academy in Dayuan Prefecture was blocked by countless people.

The door of the examination room was opened, and a large number of candidates rushed to the door, while the relatives and friends of the candidates rushed forward at a faster speed, like two waves colliding and making noise.

"Congratulations to Zhiyuan, this year's Jieyuan is up to you!" many scholars who abandoned the examination flocked to chenzhiyuan, especially the famous Gufu scholars.

Chen Zhiyuan saw Fang Yun passing by his own examination room with his own eyes. He had guessed about it in his heart. He pretended to be confused and asked: "what do you mean? Shouldn't the solution this year be Fang Yun's Zhenguo? I dare not compare with him except strategy."

"Fang Zhenguo abandoned the exam! What a pity, even the title was taken."
