159 National Warriors (1)
"Is this the reason why you won the provincial examination twice but did not participate in the palace examination?"
Zhu Yunxi looked at Jing Qing with shiny eyes and asked.
The Confucian scholars of this era were completely different from the scholars who were the same as those who later had a different story, and seemed to be carved out in the same mold. They were really all, with tight personalities, hard bones, and iron heads.
Jing Qing may have realized that he had made a mistake, and Tie Xuan was nervous about pulling him just now, which made him unwilling to say more.
Li Jinglong smiled from the side, "It's okay to say it's good. There are no outsiders here, so who can take it out and talk to you!" As he said that, he continued to smile, "Besides, my cousin's identity is more expensive than me, and he can speak well with the palace. What if you think you are right and turn back and make suggestions, it is also a good thing, right?"
Jing Qing looked at Zhu Yunxiu, and the other party's eyes were clear and implicitly encouraged.
Looking at Tie Xuan again, his expression also changed to agree.
At that moment, he spoke loudly, "It's not all. The first time my mother is in poor health. I'm going to be filial to her at home."
"Everyone in the world regards the word filial piety more than the sky, but for the sake of filial piety, he gave up the palace examination, gave up the promotion rank of Yu Juelongmen, and gave up the high-ranking officials and generous salaries. How many people can do it in ancient times?" Zhu Yunsheng picked up the wine glass, "This matter should be revealed!"
The word "filial piety" is higher than the sky.
However, few can be done well!
A glass of wine was drunk together.
"Where is the second time?" Zhu Yunxiu personally filled Jing Qing with a cup and continued.
Jing Qing thanked him and said, "I'm too angry when I say it's the second time!" As he said, he smiled bitterly, "I'm going to the provincial examination for the second time, and I'm going to go to the palace examination for the capital..."
At this time, Xie Jin shook his head and said, "Tsk tsk, look at the two consecutive provincial examinations, and they are still Jie Yuan. This is the talented man!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Shiqi suddenly turned red.
Zhu Yunxiu knew Jin at a glance, and the latter immediately lowered his eyebrows and drank with a pleasing look and stopped interrupting.
"Before entering Beijing, Lord Zhang, the right governor of Shaanxi Xuezheng, held a banquet to entertain scholars!" Jing Qing continued, "During the meal, Lord Zhang had a dispute with me about discussing Confucianism!"
Zhang Yunzhao, the academic master of Shaanxi, has a bit of impression on Zhu Yunzhao. He was born as a student in Jiangnan and western Zhejiang. He was a hard-core fan of the so-called Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. He was quite noble in the court and had a good reputation.
"What are you arguing about?" Zhu Yunxi continued to ask, "But you said that Neo-Confucianism is not good?"
"Neo-Confucianism began in the Song Dynasty and has been passed down for generations to collect the talents of all the wise men and women. It is naturally good and excellent!" Jing Qing said hurriedly, "I am also studying the Neo-Confucian scriptures, but my experience is completely different from that of Lord Zhang!"
"Mr. Zhang likes to talk about the Three Bonds and Five Constant Persons, and the ethics of the world."
"I think that whether it is Neo-Confucianism, Han Confucianism, or Tang Confucianism, the fundamental core of the talk is that scholars must be broad-minded and resolute, and scholars must be upright and upright and strong!"
"Actually, I didn't say anything else, Zhang Xuezheng was very unhappy!"
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxiu could also think about why the academic master in a province was unhappy.
It is a good thing to hold a banquet to entertain these high school students. It is also a good thing to talk about knowledge, but there is such a young man who is in public and has a debate with him in this study.
In the world, ordinary leaders always say that everyone can speak freely.
But the implication is that he will shut up and listen to me.
I said, you applaud.
"Zhang Xuezheng said, don't read these surfaces when you are reading."
"I will say this below, it is precisely because I have studied deeply that I say this!"
"The Neo-Confucian scriptures are not written by one person, but the students only recite Zhu Zi's comments. If this continues, will the students in the world come out of the same mold?"
"A scholar should be prosperous and resolute, and should be self-improvement, which is not a boast of talking about it!"
"Along with that, the so-called scholars should be diligent in national affairs rather than blindly educate morally!"
As he said that, Jing Qing suddenly became a little angry, "What is starving to death? Is it a big loss of integrity? It's also a blessing for them to say that it's simply.......... Is moral education a kind of education? Is it immoral to remarry a widow? All scholars in the world read books to the dog's belly, and they don't do serious business all day long, saying that the country and the world are only focused on women's remarriage. It's really outrageous!"
"This statement should be clear again!" Zhu Yunxiu continued to smile.
It should be noted that, including during the Song Dynasty, the social atmosphere was always very tolerant. The daughters-in-law of the prime ministers in the Song Dynasty, and the husbands remarried many times. Wang Anshi's daughter-in-law Chongshi, Yue Fei's ex-wife Liu, and Lu You's ex-wife Tang Wan all remarried others. Even the queen of Song Renzong...
Remarriage is human ethics.
These Taoist masters have forced what they think of as morality and forced people to accept it.
But then again, Neo-Confucianism is not completely bad, it is the human heart.
Neo-Confucianism originated in the Song Dynasty, but rose in the Yuan Dynasty.
It is because Neo-Confucianism has a place that is beneficial to the rulers, that is, the righteousness of the monarch and ministers he promoted exceeded the debate between China and the barbarians in the theories of all dynasties.
Jing Qing drank half a cup and continued to smile bitterly, "Actually, I am still thinking hard at the moment and debated with Zhang Xuezheng. Later, Zhang Xuezheng seemed a little annoyed, so he told me that you are a student in Shaanxi. If you go to the capital, where the students in Jiangnan gather, it will be a little too much to see!"
Zhu Yunxiu smiled and said, "Although you and I have known each other for a long time, I think you are a bit arrogant in your personality. The more he says this, the more competitive you should be. You have to take the lead in the palace examination. Why don't you participate in the palace examination?"
Jing Qing laughed a few times and said, "I thought so at the beginning of the next time, but Zhang Xuezheng said again that the court should value virtue first. I am so frivolous and rude, and I like being stubborn and stubborn, and may not be happy with the examiner!"
"He also said that all the officials in the court were from the south, those who gave questions from the Ministry of Rites, those who reviewed the papers in the Hanlin Academy, those who were invigilating the exam, those who were in charge of the exam, those who were the examiners of the Southern people, and those who were all disciples of Cheng and Zhu Neo-Confucianism. I won the provincial examination, but I may not be able to enter the palace examination."
"So in the next anger, I also said something I shouldn't say!"
"What did you say?" Zhu Yunxi asked with a smile.
"I will say below that when the founding of the country, all high-ranking officials were from Huai, and now all of them are men. Cheng and Zhu generalize the Neo-Confucianism with a partiality and shackle people's hearts. It would be better if you don't participate in such an imperial examination!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunxiu instantly pulled down his face.
At the same time, after Jing Qing finished speaking, Tie Xuan suddenly added, "Later, Zhang Xuezheng wrote to the emperor, saying that Jing Xiandi was arrogant and took the imperial examination as a joke. The emperor was furious and punished Jing Xiandi, who could not be the imperial examination for ten years!"
At this moment, Zhu Yunxi's face looked even more ugly.
"It's over, the old Taoist scholar named Zhang is going to be in trouble!" Beside, Li Jinglong looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and said in his heart. Then he looked at Tie Xuan again, and said in his heart, "It's true that dogs biting do not bark. Lao Tie doesn't talk much on weekdays, but as soon as he speaks, he says it on the Cunjie. It's so steady, accurate and ruthless!"
The reason why Zhu Yunyu looked bad was because of the words in Jing Qing's words that all high-ranking officials were from the south.
To put it in detail, most of the officials in the Hanlin Academy of the Inspectorate and other places are Jiangnan officials.
This involves one issue: forming associations and forming cliques!
The fall of the Ming Dynasty was due to the fact that the party struggled to form a party!
