Saint of the Confucian way

"What? Fang Zhenguo abandoned the exam?"

Most of the candidates' test rooms are far away from Fang Yun. They can't see Fang Yun leave from the front, and they don't know that Fang Yun left long ago. They can't believe it when they hear this news.

"No way! You must be talking nonsense!"

"Really! If you don't believe it, ask your family. The whole world knows."

"What's going on? Tell me."

So people outside the examination room explained in detail the events of these days.

All the candidates were deeply sorry. Chen Zhiyuan clenched his fists and tried to control himself from laughing. Originally, he thought he could only compete for the top five positions in Dayuan mansion, but now without Fang Yun, he answered his three subjects very smoothly. Then he has a great chance to become the first in Jiangzhou and solve the problem in one state!

A man with Dayuan accent said, "everyone can abandon the exam. Why can't Fang Yun? You don't have to."

Chen Zhiyuan looked at the speaker and said, "if I remember correctly, you are Chang wanxu of Dayuan mansion. We talked before entering the examination room for the first time. You are Fang Yun's classmate." Chen Zhiyuan's word "chat" is very biting.

Chang wanxu said, "it's me."

Morning ambition: "Brother Chang's remarks are too biased! Are you Fang Yun a mediocre person like you and me, or an unknown rookie? He is a scholar's model and the spiritual leader of the literati in Jiangzhou. Do you understand the significance of his abandoning the examination? The best scholars in Jiangzhou and Jingguo have abandoned the examination. What have all the students in Jingguo become? Is he calling Jingguo's students to abandon the examination? Do you understand Think there is no reason for the Empress Dowager to be so angry? "

"Hum, the so-called encirclement of the Empress Dowager is obviously protecting him and making him calm down to temper for a while." Chang wanxu said.

"I admit it, but dare you say the Empress Dowager is not really angry?"

Chang wanxu was speechless. Not to mention the empress dowager, he was also a little angry and confused after determining that Fang Yun had abandoned the exam, because Fang Yun was already half the spiritual pillar of Jingguo students. No one could immediately accept this fact. It was normal to be angry.

Chen Zhiyuan continued: "you who speak for Fang Yun have forgotten the most important thing!"

"Oh? Brother Chen, please give me some advice." Chang wanxu said.

"Fang Yun is the holy front lifter! The holy front lifter is trying to abandon the exam. Don't you know what it means?" Chen Zhiyuan's voice suddenly increased.

It suddenly became quiet within a few feet, and no one objected.

Chang wanxu's face changed dramatically. An unknown fire rushed out of his heart. He hated a person so much for the first time.

The morning of the fourth day is sunny, but Chang wanxu feels cold.

"Why, brother Chang has nothing to say? I don't want to attack Fang Yun, I just regret him. I hope he can really shoulder the important task of setting an example for literati." Chen Zhiyuan smiled.

Chang wanxu looked at Chen Zhiyuan and said, "I hope so. Goodbye." then he left in a hurry.

Chen Zhiyuan said in a loud voice: "although Fang Yun is wrong, his shortcomings do not hide his shortcomings. In my heart, his poems are still unmatched and are the best scenery country! Tomorrow I will write an article praising Fang Yun's name. I hope he can survive the disaster, go to a higher level and continue to lead our Jingguo literati out of the haze!"

"Brother Chen is indeed a gentleman! He is worthy of being one of the strategies of Jiangzhou scholars. He will be high in the temple in the future!"

Some people say yes one after another, but some others have a light look of contempt. It is normal for Chen Zhiyuan to use Fang Yun's literary name. As long as there is no stigma, there is nothing wrong. Depending on the situation, Chen Zhiyuan has named the former Saint. He doesn't know what he will say in the future. He is bound to take the opportunity to step on Fang Yun's position, which is disgusting.

Chen Zhiyuan attacked Fang Yun before the exam, but now he put away his radical, became approachable, smiled and talked to everyone. When talking about Fang Yun, he basically said yes, and occasionally clicked Fang Yun's small mistakes.

Many ordinary scholars have moved closer to the place where Chen Zhiyuan is located. As the solution of a state, Chen Zhiyuan is also proficient in game theory. In the future, he will certainly make progress in officialdom, which is worthy of friendship.

On the road from the capital to Dayuan mansion, a convoy drove towards Dayuan mansion. One of the cars was very spacious and was covered by a blue dragon curtain, which was pulled by 18 Jiao horses.

On the solid ground, Jiaoma and Jianiu move forward at a very fast speed.

On a cattle cart, several soldiers whispered.

"Alas, I'd rather fight with the demon man than do such a job. The key is that there is no strong line poetry to strengthen my body. It's really hard to be so bumpy."

"Alas, there's no way. You can't violate the big gift. Even if Wen Xiang can fly to Dayuan mansion, since he is an imperial envoy, he must have an imperial envoy's honor guard. However, I don't think Lord Wen Xiang is very enthusiastic about catching Fang Yun. The Empress Dowager asked him to travel all night. He's good. He's on his way on the third day of the ninth day of the lunar new year. He'll rest for an hour at noon and stay in Nian city at night. He can't arrive today. I'm afraid he can't arrive until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year 。”

"Wen Xiang is a famous good man. You should say less behind your back."

"Hey, hey, I'm just complaining. It's harmless. In fact, I don't want Fang Zhenguo to be arrested. It's a pity."

"Alas..."

The sun was setting in the West and the lights were on. The night in Dayuan city was more lively than usual.

Thousands of scholars gathered in Dayuan mansion in Jiangzhou, waiting for the list.

These people are very tired after the imperial examination. They sleep loudly during the day. When they wake up at night, they attract friends, or go to the flower streets and willows to have a romantic story, or go to the lively restaurants and teahouses to talk about the world, while the famous or well-known scholars participate in various cultural meetings to discuss the questions of the imperial examination.

Different from previous years, hundreds of literary meetings in Dayuan mansion today seem a little dull. No matter what students say, they will talk to Fang Yun.

"It's said that the holy courtyard has evolved into a battlefield! The literary list is extremely fierce. Countless poems are listed on the list, and countless poems are pressed down. As for the discussion list, it can be described as a river of blood. Scholars from various countries write articles and fight for Fang Yun."

"That's a place where people can compete with others. We'd better stay away from that place. If we discuss the holy way, we scholars must pay attention to it and have a concussion in the literary palace."

"I was expecting that after Fang Yun became a famous person, I could be proud of the literary list of the holy courtyard. Who knows what happened. However, we Jingguo people don't need to be discouraged, but we'll wait a few years."

"In fact, Fang Yun's poems and prose have long been on the list. Unfortunately, at that time, he didn't officially mention people, otherwise his previous poems were enough to make him earn enough 'ink and prose', even if he just thought about it, it would be enviable."

"There is a person who can enter the article list next door. He is constantly publishing the news of article list and discussion list. Let's go and have a look."

"Go!"

All the readers in Dayuan mansion are busy. Only Fang Yun is relieved to study in the world of wonderful books. From the second day to the fourth day, Fang Yun has read more than 3000 books of different thickness, involving history, military, economy, politics, mathematics, physics, chemistry and so on, which has greatly broadened his horizons.

There are a lot of knowledge that can't be used in Shengyuan, but Fang Yun feels that these things are beneficial and can make himself learn by analogy.

After reading the third volume of "on war", Fang Yun withdrew from the world of strange books to rest.

Fang Yun stood up and moved his body, but his mind was thinking about what he had learned today.

Suddenly, Fang Yun listened out of the window, and then walked out quickly. His face became worse and worse. At the end, his face sank like water.

With a bang, Fang Yun took out the bolt of the door, opened the door and said to the soldiers outside the door, "please come in, Mrs. Wang."

The two soldiers at the door were frightened when they saw Fang Yun's face. Fang Yun's identity was all right, but general Chen Xibi never said anything. If something happened, he might be whipped.

A man immediately shouted at the street: "Marquis Wen has an order to let the woman in! What are you looking at? Send Mrs. Wang quickly!"

"Now! Now!"

Not long after, two soldiers escorted a middle-aged woman. The woman was dressed in light red fine royal clothes, wearing a Golden Phoenix hairpin, with light makeup on her face and dignified appearance, but the subtle crow's feet at the corners of her eyes exposed her age.

Fang Yun arched his hand and said, "are you Mr. Wang's wife? Mr. Wang once taught me classics, righteousness and other subjects in the state literary academy, and he burned his life and used his blue blood heart in the war with the turtle demon general. I admire him. If you have anything to say, as long as we can do it, we will never refuse!"

Mrs. Wang's eyes turned red. She took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, gently wiped the wet corners of her eyes and said, "no wonder my humble husband praises you every day. I didn't expect you to be a real person with heavy feelings, as he said. I can't speak. If I offend you, I hope Wenhou will forgive me."

"But it doesn't hurt to say," Fang Yun said with a smile.

Mrs. Wang immediately said, "let me be frank. Just a few days ago, our master was called to the government office and said that your four longevity fruits were sent to me. I asked my humble husband to discuss how to divide them. You know, at that time, five people used blue blood Dan Xin."

"It's really five people," Fang Yun said.

Master Wang's mother said, "these five people were all real scholars who were willing to spend ten years to kill demons. Our master said that everyone of them wanted the longevity fruit, but in the end they all gave up firmly."

Fang Yun sighed softly. He still remembers the determination of the five people. These five people may not become Jinshi all their life, but their literati heart is no less than those famous scholars. These five people can restrain their desires in front of the longevity fruit, which is really a model for literati.

"Then what happened?" Fang Yun said.

Master Wang's mother said, "let's not say that scholars are hard bones. Our master said that if someone thought too much about prolonging life at that time, it might be better. Everyone would argue, and then four people were happy and one was unlucky. But at that time, all five people were moved by the selflessness of the other four people, and all of them committed the stubborn temper of scholars. No one wanted it."

Fang Yun smiled. It can be said that the five people are pedantic and stubborn, but they are all real gentlemen.

"As soon as magistrate sun couldn't take care of it, he simply let a small official be in charge. Without the pressure of Jinshi, these five people couldn't take care of it and dragged on all the time. But on the first day of the new year, a man who claimed to be the 'housekeeper' of a famous family in the capital found one of them and said he wanted to buy longevity fruit at a high price. That's a ten-year life. Who can sell it? Is that right?" Master Wang's mother way.

"You're right." Fang Yun immediately thought that the "housekeeper" in the capital was the family of Guan surname. It was often misunderstood, but it was memorable.

"Naturally, he didn't sell it. He told the humble husband and others about it on the first day of the new year. Unexpectedly, the man went to our house on the first night of the new year."
