Chapter 170 I'm here to help you
with your mercy
"That's what it is..."
After Yun Zhao described what Kong Xiu did in Chang'an, Qian Duoduo's face turned black.
"A dog thief like this..."
Yun Zhao stopped Qian Duoduo's angrily scolding and said to her with interest: "Don't you pay attention to whether his painting was sold?"
Qian Duoduo suppressed his anger and said, "Has it been sold?"
Yun Zhao sighed and said, "When Kong Xiu was taken to Chang'an County Government, the painting was sold."
“Who bought it?”
Qian Duoduo was extremely surprised.
"There are many people who want that painting, including my grandfather, Yang Xiong's grandfather, many former officials, and even Zhu Cunji participated in the competition. In the end, the painting sold for 6,000 silver dollars."
When Qian Duoduo heard her husband say this, he immediately calmed down and looked at her husband and said, "So, our grandfather's family got that painting?"
Yun Zhao nodded and said, "That's right, my grandfather got the painting and invited Kong Xiu to live in his house, but Kong Xiu refused.
Qian Duoduo frowned and said, "He is too arrogant. He is waiting for our couple to come to visit."
Yun Zhao smiled slightly and said, "The centipede insect will die but will not be stiff."
Qian Duoduo glanced at her husband carefully. Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, he whispered: "No matter how Yushan Xinxue suppresses it, Confucianism still exists. Will your husband accept Confucianism?"
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "That depends on whether Confucianism has the ability to improve itself and reform itself. Anyway, I don't want the eight-legged essay here."
Qian Duoduo said: "Or, I will come and see Kong Xiu? This time he was willing to make such a big noise. I want to see if this person is really capable. If Kong Yinzhi dares to find a bastard to deal with me, he must be good-looking."
Yun Zhao waved his hand and said, "Don't doubt it, Kong Xiu is the only remaining master in Kong's family! That is, he is a little more arrogant. Otherwise, Kong Yinzhi would have recommended him."
"Shuo Crazy? How crazy can it be?"
"Kong Yinzhi wrote a letter saying that his uncle, who regards etiquette and law as nothing, once his temperament is revealed, he may do anything dirty."
"Is such a person suitable to be a teacher for Xian'er?"
"I don't know, it depends on whether this person can control his temperament. However, I thought it should be possible. After this person entered Chang'an, he immediately told us clearly that he was bringing Confucianism to surrender this time.
He also told me through a painting that Confucianism still has great influence and through his weird behavior, he told me that all rumors about him are true.
Putting the pros and cons in front of me depends on how I choose.
Judging from this incident, Kong Xiu is probably also a meticulous person. Doing so will cause the least harm to Kong, and it will completely drag Kong out of the quagmire of the prince's strife for the throne. After all, everything was arranged by me.
Basically, the four words "stubborn and open" are also very consistent with the traditional Confucian teachings."
Qian Duoduo looked at her husband and smiled: "You can see so much from a small matter?"
Yun Zhao shook his head, took a document from his side and threw it to Qian Duoduo and said, "Look, this is a summary of opinions compiled by the secretary and supervisor."
Qian Duoduo looked at the thick document and hesitated for a moment, but it didn't open it.
Yun Zhao opened it directly and stuffed it into Qian Duoduo's hand and said, "Look at this moment, I think your husband is a fool, and you are my favorite fox boy."
Qian Duoduo was actually quite content with the title of "Fox Meizi". She also felt that she was a "Fox Meizi". If she didn't have this name, wouldn't she have grown so beautiful in vain?
The heat waves in Chang'an in May are rolling.
Kong Xiu looked at the prosperous Chang'an with interest with his hands behind his back.
After experiencing the farce last night, Kong Xiu seemed even more relaxed and contented.
This is not the most prosperous Zhuque Street in Chang'an, but there are many restaurants on the river bank. In summer, many women wearing extremely cool clothes waving their little fans and constantly summoning pedestrians with charming voices, hoping that they can enter their own shop to rest.
Today, in Chang'an, not only are Han women recruiting customers, but Huihui women wearing small hats and covering half of their faces with white gauze are also recruiting customers. Although there is no wine in their small shop, there are a lot of boiled and roasted fragrant mutton.
When the slim young man in a white hat stopped when he saw the guest, he would grab a handful of cumin and throw it on the grilled oily lamb skewers, which was full of fragrance.
Occasionally, you can hear a brisk sound of hand drums. Women in Western Regions dresses danced lightly and danced to the warmth. They would bring out bowls of bright red wine and half-squat on the ground to offer them to the guests to taste.
Xiaoqing felt very embarrassing to follow her husband.
Because when the old man met someone who invited him to taste it, he refused everyone. Therefore, from entering this street to walking out of this street, his old man had been hiccupping and was slightly drunk.
"You know, what I tasted was not wine and meat, but the glorious Tang Dynasty atmosphere. One bite of meat would bring half a part of the moonlight to your arms. One drink of wine would bring three parts of the heroic spirit to you.
After drinking and eating, you can sleep in Chang'an City forever and wait for the emperor to call."
Xiaoqing frowned and said, "You can tell the emperor that you don't get on the boat, are you a fairy in the wine?"
Kong Xiu shook his head and said, "No, if the emperor calls me, I will definitely get on the boat and will definitely show what I have learned in my life."
Xiaoqing looked at her husband strangely and said, "Aren't you pretending to be confused?"
Kong Xiu laughed and said, "The appearance of a prosperous era has come out. At this time, I, Confucianism, must actively participate. Only by launching a prosperous era with the royal family, whether it is Confucianism or Confucius, can there be a need to continue to survive.
Otherwise, if you only eat your old capital, you will eventually go into the coffin."
Seeing that the old man seemed to have gotten up and talked about his sex, Xiaoqing handed over the two donkeys to a woman who was eager to come and helped the young man into the small shop with only seven or eight tables.
After a cup of cool fruit was exposed, Xiaoqing whispered: "Didn't you say that the people in the family are waste?"
Kong Xiu smiled and said, "Don't lower your voice and say this, they are waste. What kind of new knowledge can be created by drilling old paper piles?
The things of our ancestors have been studied for thousands of years. They said what our ancestors thought of, and they said what our ancestors didn’t expect, and then they mixed together and said that they were said by our ancestors.
Hahaha, this is how our ancestors are praised on the altar.
Ten years ago, I started to study Yushan New School. At the beginning, my son looked down on these things. After I studied hard with a look for trouble for three years, Wo finally discovered the greatness of this science.
After six years of hard study, I finally integrated the new Yushan learning. It took me two years to push the new Yushan learning one step forward, and finally took me three years to integrate my Confucianism with the new Yushan learning.
Xiao Qing'er, you are already thirteen years old this year, and it is just the time to enter the Yushan Academy and go to school. When we arrive at Yushan, you will take the Yushan Grand Examination in June this year and show your talent. If you don’t get the first place, you will die.”
Xiaoqing took another sip of Guo Zilu and said, "If you can't get a position like the second prince's tutor, should you die?"
Kong Xiu shook his head and said, "The Lantian imperial court has no such thing as a tutor. However, I can just take the opportunity to teach the second prince and make a deal with the emperor so that he can discover the benefits of my new study."
This will prolong my life in Confucianism.
To be honest, although Xu Yuanshou is already amazing when it comes to teaching and educating people, he is nothing compared to my Kong family’s thousands of years of teaching and educating experience.”
Xiaoqing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get a first place. First, prove the young master's ability to teach and educate people, and then you can kill the rest of the people who want to be teachers for the second prince, and then monopolize the second prince."
Kong Xiu laughed and said, "No need to say that he is so sinister, Confucian gentleman is as gentle as jade and open as righteous. If we cannot show the Confucian spirit of a vast and broad spirit, it will not be enough to match the Lantian imperial court's aura of being as fierce as a tiger.
The new Yushan School was very effective when it embezzled the world and dominated the Ming Dynasty. When it comes to educating the people and nourishing the world, the disadvantages of the new Yushan School were fully demonstrated.
Moreover, in the following time, what the Lantian imperial court wants is stability in the world, what it wants is to let the people live, the political system return to the right path, and the robber theory seems extremely inappropriate at this time.
In today's Ming Dynasty, the people are all ambitious. Everyone wants a good life and more wealth. This spirit is actually deliberately cultivated by Yun Zhao and the others.
In a short period of time, the people of Ming Dynasty will indeed become rich.
However, if everyone seeks profit and strives for the first place, this is definitely not a good thing for a dynasty that pursues stability and hopes forever to last forever.
The pursuit of interests has a certain limit. We cannot continue to be rich indefinitely. When wealth is no longer the most important goal pursued by people in the world, the crisis of the dynasty will come.
In addition, the Lantian imperial court attacked from all sides and plundered everywhere. No matter it was Uszang, the Western Regions, Japan, North Korea, Annan, and Rakshasa, they could not be safe.
Yun Zhao not only cultivated the arrogance of the people in China, he was even feeding his powerful army with victory after victory. To be honest, when these armies were in China, they were still a disciplined army.
However, once they left the Ming Dynasty, they immediately became bandits, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil. Xiao Qing'er, haven't you noticed that the current army of the Lantian imperial court is somewhat acquainted with the army under Temujin?"
Xiaoqing sipped Guozilu and refused to answer because he found that a dark-faced man was sitting not far from them, pricking up his ears to listen to his old man's words.
He originally wanted to drive away this gloomy person, but after measuring it for a long time, he found that he didn't seem to have the ability, so he sat there quietly and listened to the young master bragging.
At the same time, he had long seen that the person his old man was talking to was not him at all.
