Chapter 142 The B-character volume stirs up wind, rain and **** stick
The arrival of Miao Changqi and Zhu Guozhen indeed caused a shock in the entire academy. These great scholars were of high standards in terms of image, demeanor and demeanor.
Zhu Guozhen and Miao Changqi were also shocked when faced with such thorough and meticulous preparations by Qingtan Academy. Especially when they learned that all this was jointly organized by students from Qingtan Academy and Chongzheng Academy, Zhu Guozhen and Miao Changqi were also deeply touched.
"Brother Chengfeng, Brother Youfu, Dongxian, I didn't have any intuitive feelings before, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that Qingtan and Chongzheng students are indeed well-deserved." Zhu Guozhen put his hands on his back and said leisurely: "I have heard about Qingtan Academy for a long time. Students focus on the unity of knowledge and action, and the study of things to achieve knowledge, leaving aside the rest, but the Qingtan students’ practice and hands-on ethos are indeed worthy of praise and learning, and the same is true for Chongzheng Academy,..."
Zhu Guozhen, as the head of the Chongwen Academy and a scholar from Jiangnan, has always been highly respected for his behavior. Compared with Miao Changqi's wild and unruly style, he is undoubtedly more popular among northern scholars.
But Miao Changqi is more famous in Jiangnan, and Mr. Xixi's reputation will spread to the wind for thirty miles wherever he is placed.
"Well, what Brother Wenyu said makes sense, but I think we scholars should still take reading as our foundation. The unity of knowing and doing does not mean knowing and doing. A gentleman works hard and a villain works hard. This is the nature of us scholars. Points." Miao Changqi raised his short eyebrows on his dark and thin cheeks and retorted unceremoniously.
Zhu Guozhen didn't feel dissatisfied. He was obviously accustomed to his old friend's style. He smiled and said: "Gentlemen are harmonious but different. At that time, Brother Yu thought that although scholars should be based on learning, the fundamental purpose of learning is to educate the world. Governing the world, but putting learning first does not mean that we must exclude all other miscellaneous studies and chores..."
Qi Yongtai, Wang Yongguang and Guan Yingzhen all watched with smiles as they discussed the discussion along the way.
They don't think that these two people are really harmonious but different. As representatives of Jiangnan Shilin, whether it is the level of scriptures, demeanor, or city cultivation, they are all first-rate, and it is definitely not what they see on the surface. So simple.
As the host, Qi Yongtai interrupted very politely: "Brother, our situation at Qingtan Academy may be slightly different from that of your Baima Academy. Our academy is small and most of the students come from poor families, so we advocate doing what you can do by yourself." , this can be regarded as a kind of exercise for one’s muscles and bones. Of course, studying must be the first thing, otherwise why would we students travel thousands of miles to come to our Qingtan Academy?”
This statement implies a hint of tact.
When Qingtan Academy began to recruit southern scholars, it also caused some dissatisfaction with Baima and Chongwen Academy.
Originally, it was governed by dividing the river, but now Qingtan Academy seems to be laid out with the world in mind.
However, Baima and Chongwen Yuan benefited from the support of the local gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was impossible to suddenly turn to recruiting northern scholars, so it also caused some disputes between the two parties.
In a sense, Qingtan Academy’s invitation to Miao Changqi and Zhu Guozhen to give lectures in the north was also a gesture and measure to alleviate the conflicts between the two parties.
Miao Changqi glanced at Qi Yongtai, but said nothing more.
I still have to give the owner a small portion, and what I said is true. Qingtan Academy itself is the shabbiest and humblest of the major academies. The donors are demanding, so the income is naturally meager. Who can complain about this small family atmosphere? ?
"Let's go, when we come to the capital, we must come to Qingtan and Chongzheng Academy. The mountain is not high, but the immortals are famous." Zhu Guozhen smiled and acted like a good guy, "Brother Youfu, we are here in Qingtan this morning Let’s take a look and go to Chongzheng Academy for a walk in the afternoon. It’s a rare time for us to get together tonight, so we’ll be in trouble.”
"It is also an honor for Chongzheng to invite Brother Wenyu and Brother Dongxian to come to Chongzheng. Although Brother Chengfeng and Brother Dongxian are only a few miles away from us, we rarely meet each other. Tonight's conspiracy to get drunk together can be regarded as a deepening of the relationship. It's the feelings of neighbors." Wang Yongguang spoke more plainly: "When will Brother Guest arrive?"
“The guests may be a little later.” Guan Yingzhen replied. "Guest" is Tang Binyin's nickname, and of course he deserves to be a guest.
The group, accompanied by several students, began to visit Qingtan Academy.
Han Jing, Lian Guoshi, Feng Ziying, Xu Xie and others must accompany him. Naturally, Yang Sichang and Feng Ziying from Chongzheng Academy also attracted the attention of several others.
Needless to say, Han Jing and Xu Xie were both students of southern scholars. They were both well-known among the young scholars in Jiangnan. They had both visited Miao Changqi and Zhu Guozhen, so they were very familiar with them. Although Lian Guoshi had never met them. Both Miao Changqi and Zhu Guozhen also knew about this son. Chunwei did not perform well in the upper division, but his classic knowledge and literary talents were still highly expected.
On the other hand, Feng Ziying, a young man who was obviously much younger than Han Jin, Xu Xie and Lian Guoshi, made Miao Changqi and Zhu Guozhen quite curious.
"Brother Chengfeng, who is this young man? He is as heroic as a dragon and a tiger as fast as a tiger. He is not like you students from Qingtan Academy." Zhu Guozhen looked at Feng Ziying and asked Qi Yongtai with a smile.
"Brother Wenyu, what you said is wrong. This boy is a real student of our Qingtan Academy. Ziying, why don't you say hello to Mr. Pinghan and Mr. Xixi?" Qi Yongtai stroked his chin beard, his face was gentle and friendly, and he also hid his hidden secrets. A touch of pride.
“Feng Keng and Feng Ziying have met Mr. Pinghan and Mr. Xixi.” Feng Ziying naturally did not lose her etiquette and bowed respectfully.
It is said that although this son was young, he was very courageous and very quick-witted. He was recommended by Qiao Yingjia to study at Qingtan Academy, which also caused great controversy.
But looking at Qi Yongtai's expression, he seemed to be particularly satisfied with this son.
They all know what kind of temper Qi Yongtai is, but they won't betray Qiao Yingjia's face.
“That’s right, student.” Feng Ziying was still respectful.
"Well, everyone said that during your trip to Shandong, you broke into the bandits' den alone and assisted the government in making great achievements. You are an outstanding example. When I saw you today, you are indeed extraordinary." Zhu Guozhen nodded with satisfaction.
He is not jealous of a young man. Although he also laments that Qingtan Academy takes this opportunity to become famous, it is not a very honorable thing for others to become famous first, and for you to recruit them later.
"Mr. Pinghan has given too much praise. It was just a coincidence that the students happened to be at the right time. It was all thanks to the decisive and courageous actions of the governor Li Gong, the imperial censor Qiao Gong, and the commander-in-chief General Chen. They were able to put down the rebellion in one fell swoop. The students really didn't dare. Greedy for heaven’s merit.”
It was so polite that even Miao Changqi, who was a little displeased with Feng Ziying, looked much better.
Li Sancai has always been friendly with southern scholars. He is one of the few ministers in the court who was born in the north but has close relationships with southern officials and scholars.
There are different opinions on the reasons behind the suppression of the rebellion in Shandong, but Li Sancai benefited a lot from it. Therefore, many people believe that this was Governor Li's first contribution. Therefore, seeing Feng Ziying's high praise, he followed Miao Changqi and Zhu Guozhen. The southern scholars all looked happy.
"Well, you don't need to be too modest. I also heard that you were indeed very brave. You helped the government put down this chaos and avoided a catastrophe for the people of Shandong. There is no greater good." Zhu Guozhen glanced at Qi Yongtai with a smile. He Guan Yingzhen said, "Brother Chengfeng, Brother Dongxian, don't let these students go to Qingtan to waste."
"Brother Wen Yu admires this person so much. I also ask Brother Wen Yu and my brother at that time to give me some more advice if I have the opportunity. This person's scriptures are still superficial. Although I have worked hard after entering the academy, I am still far from what we expected. I still need to work hard." Read and polish." Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen exchanged glances and said calmly.
"Haha, brother Chengfeng, why do you need to be so humble? You and brother Dongxian are great talents in the literary world, how can it be our turn to give advice?" Miao Changqi took the initiative to answer the conversation and glanced sideways at Feng Ziying, "I heard that this boy is in college The debate between Huguo Temple and Yang Wenruo was very unruly, is this possible?"
The atmosphere in the entire venue suddenly stagnated, and even Wang Yongguang, who had always maintained a calm and relaxed expression next to him, could not calm down.
This is trying to cause trouble. Feng Ziying glanced at Yang Sichang, whose expression was changing at the side.
Yang Sichang had a rather special status, just like Feng Ziying who entered Qingtan Academy.
Yang Sichang was from Huguang. In theory, he should be considered a southern scholar. However, his father Yang He had been an official in Beijing for a long time. Although Yang Sichang was very famous in his hometown of Huguang, he did not go to the academy in Jinling. Instead, he went north to Chongzheng Academy. This is natural. This made Southern Shilin a little dissatisfied.
Miao Changqi suddenly became angry at this time, obviously intending to stir up trouble.
But he is a leader of southern scholars, and it seems right to protect the reputation of southern students. You, Yang Sichang, cannot not appreciate it.
And Chongzheng Academy, which is also a northern academy, is also the academy where Yang Sichang is located, so it is impossible not to maintain support.
But if you want to echo and support, it will undoubtedly cause dissatisfaction among the students from your home academy, who are mainly northern scholars, so this also puts Wang Yongguang, who is Chongzheng Academy, into trouble.
Although Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen had expected that this lecture event would not pass so peacefully, they did not expect that this guy Miao Changqi would start to attack so early, and his method was quite clever. He actually used the debate between Feng Ziying and Yang Sichang. Come as hard as hair.
This move immediately put Chongzheng Academy, which is also a northern academy, aside, making it difficult for Wang Yongguang to help. Once a heated debate occurs, it may also cause dissatisfaction with Qingtan Academy from Chongzheng Academy.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Feng Ziying, and even Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen couldn't interrupt for a while.
The debate at Dahuguo Temple was also aroused by the good people in the capital, but there is no doubt that many people felt that this was Feng Ziying, a fledgling boy, challenging the three great talents in the capital.
From the mentality of ordinary people who challenge authority, of course they like to see this scene, but from the perspective of these great Confucian scholars who pay attention to rules in the scholarly world, this is subverting the rules and order.
