Chapter 337: Chen Ji is not simple

Has fate? Chen Ao was shocked. He would rather have a fate with Jesus than dare to have a fate with Buddha. If you believe in Jesus, at least there will be a little Loli Zhengtai to adjust your life. As for Buddha, it is better to kill Chen Ao.

Chen Ao said silence, reluctantly chuckled a faint smile, and said, "The Zen Master is too famous."

Kong Ding said: "The donor from Dali also said that he would go to the Central Plains this year and was eager to see Mr. Chen. If Mr. Chen has free time, don't refuse."

Chen Ao responded all over. Seeing that Fan Zhiyi and others were almost resting, Shi Xiaohu came over with a bun on his back crying and red eyes, so he stood up and said goodbye to Kong Ding and Kong Jing. He pulled a few Ju Ke to wait outside first, knowing that Shi Xiaohu and the two masters had something to say.

Fan Zhiyi and others knew that they were going to run back to Bianjing City later, so they couldn't help but complain in their hearts. Fortunately, they had just eaten some refreshments and recovered some strength, otherwise they would have to exhaust themselves if they really ran back.

After waiting for a long time, Shi Xiaohu was in tears and reluctantly in Kong Ding. Kong Jing and the other two came out slowly under the guard. Chen Ao led him past and was about to go down the mountain. Kong Ding and Kong Jing and the other two stood under the stone steps, watching Chen Ao and Shi Xiaohu go further and further, both of them were in a state of depression.

Shi Xiaohu cried like a tearful person, and from time to time he turned back to Kong Ding, Kong Jing waved: "Master...Uncle Master..." After a few steps, he looked back.

Chen Ao couldn't help but comfort him, "Okay, okay, don't cry, follow me down the mountain. If you are so procrastinating, you don't know when you can go down the mountain. It's not a separation of life and death. The temple is only twenty miles away from Bianjing. If you look for some space, you will often come back to visit your master and uncle."

Shi Xiaohu whimpered, "I don't know where I don't know, but my master said that this is what happened when we part. Not only do we have to cry, but we also have to turn back and wave. If I don't do this, my master must punish me."

Chen Ao was stunned and couldn't help saying, "The two Zen masters are good at it. Such discipline skills are really eye-opening." Then he deceived him and said, "This is your master, uncle lie to you. Do you see if your master is crying?"

Shi Xiaohu turned around and saw the two closest people standing dumbly. He watched him leave gradually, shook his head and said, "It seems that he has never cried."

Chen Ao said, "That's it. Look, they didn't cry. Why are you crying? Why don't you do this? In the future, I will bring you too. How about it?" As he said, he proudly talked about the prosperity of Bianjing City. Of course, the most important thing was about the candied haws and sugar people. Shi Xiaohu was moved and asked expectantly: "Can I eat them every day?" He stopped crying, but his eyes were still swollen.

Chen Ao smiled and said, "Yes, don't worry, I will never treat you badly at that time."

When we went down to the mountain gate, the peach blossoms were in full bloom in the peach forest under the mountain gate. After many pilgrims went down the mountain, they entered the peach forest to experience the beautiful scenery of the flowers. Chen Ao glanced at the lush and fragrant peach forest, and knew that the peach blossoms would not bloom for too long. I am afraid that it would be difficult to see this beautiful scenery again when I came again.

Taking Shi Xiaohu on the horse, the Jukes had already started running and slowly returned to the city. Seeing Fan Zhiyi and others, Shi Xiaohu laughed and said, "Brother Shen, what are they doing?"

Chen Ao thought and said with a smile: "Xiaohu, I have something to teach you in advance. Congming***, how about you supervise their running for me?"

……………………………………………………………………

A few days later, Chen Ao became the boss. All the training of Ju Ke and others was handed over to Shi Xiaohu. Shi Xiaohu was a small monk, and urging them was no problem. Besides, Shi Xiaohu could also go to the temple once a day, which would somewhat relieve Shi Xiaohu's longing for his master and uncle.

Chen Ao rested in the Duke's mansion for a few days and went to the flower garden. When Zhenzhen heard that Chen Ao was serving rice, she said that she was very idle in the flower garden and wanted to help. Chen Ao quickly shook his head. He was now under the debt. There was a Chuner in Suiyashan House, a lady in the Tang family, and there was Zhenzhen in the flower garden. Who knew what would happen if they got together.

Tang Moer and Chuner are close, but when they go to Suiya Mountain House, Chen Ao always feels that the two seem to be conspiring. There is always a little strange look when they look at them. Both of them are simple girls. If they add a rich experience Zhenzhen and three women in one play, this kind of thing will still be beneficial to them.

Because Tang Moer went to Suiyashan House and was not at home, Chen Ao did not have the interest to borrow books and return books. Instead, he went to the King of Jin's mansion several times, and they were all test results. If he bumped into King of Jin, he would just say perfunctory words. Seeing that he was doing nothing, the King of Jin handed over everything to a little monk. He didn't know what Chen Ao was going to have the idea of ​​Chen Ao, and he thought that Chen Ao was just bluffing, but at the moment he thought that Chen Caizi had never played according to common sense, and he had his own style, and perhaps he might not have the ability to keep the box.

After nourishing his spirits, Chen Ao suddenly became restless again. He wrote several articles of scriptures in recent days and sent them to Chen Ji. Although Chen Ji was unhappy when he saw him coming, Chen Ao could see that he was still happy, especially when he was even more welcomed by a food box that Chen Ao was carrying.

Put down the food box, Chen Ao handed over the scriptures written in the past two days. Chen Ji looked at it and frowned and said, "Have you not read books these days?"

Chen Aoda was ashamed, his heart was still too wild. Although he read Piaotianyi, how could his studies improve? Stop it, I know your affairs. I just finished the palace exam and it was time to relax for a few days." He stroked his beard and pointed out some mistakes in Chen Ao's article, and said, "A few days ago, I figured out a question. Come and see what method can I figure out to solve the problem."

Chen Ao sat down with a dangerous collar and hurriedly said, "Sir, please ask me for advice."

Chen Jidao: "How is the difference between the emperor's politics and the emperor's heart?"

Chen Ao pondered for a moment and said, "There seems that this allusion is not in the Four Books."

Chen Ji smiled and said, "Since it is a good topic, what does it matter if it comes from the Four Books?"

Chen Ao understood, no wonder he felt awkward about this question. It turned out that this question did not come from the Four Books. In fact, the meaning of the classics varies. Although the official imperial examinations are very strict in finding test questions from the Four Books and Five Classics, there are many things to excerpt test questions from other books in private, and many scholars enjoy this and use it to exercise their ability to solve the questions.

The king's policy and the king's heart? Chen Ao slowly understands the meaning of this question. The meaning of this sentence should be the relationship between the policies implemented by the king and the king's heart. After understanding the meaning, Chen Ao knew the difficulty of this question. It is naturally very easy to solve this question, but if you encounter this question in the imperial examination, it will be difficult to handle.

This topic can be roughly divided into two ways to solve the problem, one is the admonishment method, that is, students can write a classic based on the king's policies and hearts to describe the present. The consequences of doing so are easy to lose their reputation. It should be noted that what the emperor hates the most is the admonishment minister, Qu Yuan jumped into the river, Bi Gan cuts his heart, and Wu Zixu was killed. The famous Wei Zheng in history was actually hated by Emperor Taizong of Tang.

The problem arises. A candidate, who has not even been an official, writes a free and easy article on the emperor. You have to do benevolent government. Look at how King Zhou was ruined, how King Fuchai of Wu committed suicide, and how King Chu was destroyed. This is a great disaster. So, no matter how many words of such a classic are written, they are probably only a failure. The emperors have bad tempers. Even if they meet an emperor with a good temper, the examiners are not stupid. Who dares to admit candidates like you?

It is not good to use this method to solve the problem!

As for the second method of solving the problem, it is to flatter you and say that your Majesty, you are very kind, so you have good governance. Your old man's body is shocked, and the turtle's aura is like a surging river...

Bah... Don't say that Shen Ao can't slap such explicit flattery, even if he really wrote it, and if he accepted the exam paper and became an official, he would probably be ridiculed by Shilin and would not be able to raise his head among his colleagues for the rest of his life.

How to be impartial? It is not too much to touch the tiger's butt, and it cannot be too shameless. It is like walking a tightrope. If one is not good, the future will be lost or the others will be despised.

Shen Ao wandered for a long time and finally came up with a way to solve the problem: "I heard that when an emperor is in control of the world, he must have the actual policy of the manager, and then he can restrain the crowd, and intricate all kinds of things to achieve the rule of Yongxi; he must have the solid intention of advocating and leading the way, and then he can temper all labours, boost common affairs, and achieve the principle of achieving great success." Shen Ao said: "Sir, I don't know if I can solve the problem like this?"

The general meaning of this sentence is: I heard that when the emperor comes to rule the country, he must have practical methods of governing the country, and then he can restrain his subjects and manage all kinds of things every day to obtain prosperous and peaceful governance; he must have practical ideas of governing the country that advocates and leads the country, and then he can hone and inspire all officials, revitalize and reform various affairs, and achieve very prosperous governance.

To put it bluntly, solving the question is just empty words. On the surface, it is a big truth, but in fact it has no meaning at all. Shen Ao looked at Chen Ji carefully and thought to himself: "This is the best way to solve the question. Although it is all empty words, he finally avoided the two traps. According to Mr. Chen's temperament, he was afraid that he would scold me for being so bloody."

Unexpectedly, Chen Ji shook his head and chewed Shen Ao's words, and suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, Shen Ao, you finally understand what the scriptures are."

Shen Ao was stunned: "Please give me advice."

Chen Ji glanced at Shen Ao with appreciation: "What a sacred word is the article of the scriptures for scholars, but in my opinion, the so-called scriptures are actually just empty words, and only a real master of scriptures can see through this. Shen Ao, remember, do the scriptures, and you must not bring your own emotions into it. Just write out the views of the rules and distances according to the format and pile up words. As for the others, it is actually a big deal."

He drowned with a word of shit and said with a wry smile: "We are reading the book of sages, but if Saint Kong knew that the students in later generations were like this, he would be furious. The so-called meaning of the scriptures does not make any great sense, so don't write any great way out of it. Just remember that this is your stepping stone and stepping stone. With it, you can enter the Golden Palace and fulfill your ambitions."

"Hey, may this Mr. Chen have also traveled through time? Why is his views somewhat similar to those of later generations?" Chen Ao looked at Chen Ji strangely, and saw him seeing through the worldly love, thinking to himself, this is the Chen Ji who speaks frankly, not like it, really not like it, there is such wisdom in his chest and abdomen, and he has such insight, but why did he do such stupid things? He must be able to adapt. Don't you know that doing that is self-destructing your future?

Chen Ji seemed to understand what Chen Ao wanted to ask, and smiled and said with a sigh: "Do you want to ask me why I wrote a letter to say it bluntly?"

Chen Ao nodded.

Chen Ji smiled and said, "At that time, I was in the Hanlin area. Apart from the attendant, I could only read books and entertain myself. However, the Cai Party had reached its most domineering time. No one in the court dared to complain about them at all. Even Duke Zhou and Duke Wei County could only protect themselves. I thought to myself that since I could not show my ambitions, it would be better to do something earth-shaking than to be trapped in the Hanlin courtyard for the rest of my life..."

Chen Ao understood that Chen Ji was actually just a martyr. He understood what he was doing, but had to do it. So he stood up and said things many people would never dare to say in front of all the timid ministers.

Chen Ao remembers that after Chen Ji retired, Cai Jing also retired. Although Cai Jing was activated later, his strength was not as good as before.

It turns out that this is the case. Chen Ji was just a pioneer. He stood up and gave more people the courage. So after Chen Ji, the impeachment against Cai Jing fell on Zhao Ji's desk like a snowflake. On the surface, Chen Ji lost, but Cai Jing was also severely injured. The scholars were talking about it and the ministers were surging. At this time, except for restraint, Cai Jing would never dare to take the blame for the world to attack political enemies. In the second year, his resignation was a shame, which caused the Cai Party to suffer an unprecedented blow. Although he had recovered later, his strength was already much worse than before.

Chen Ji smiled slightly: "Do you understand?"

Chen Ao smiled: "Mr. Chen studied the same place wherever he studied. Because what Mr. Chen asked for was not wealth, so studying at Hanlin Academy is no different from studying here. Unfortunately, Cai Jing thought he had revenge on you, but in fact, the biggest loser was himself."
