Zhang Kui suddenly shouted at Zhao Gou: "The crown prince is the crown prince of a country. How can he not ask about right and wrong? He does not argue about the truth? He does not pursue the great way of heaven?"
Zhang Kui was both harsh and brave, facing the crown prince of a country, he was really brave.
However, it also reflects from one side that the top leaders of Shilin society are not so afraid of imperial power.
Especially when facing a prince like Zhao Gou who has no real power and is almost mascot, he looks even more disdainful of him.
Zhao Gou's face turned red and he said coldly: "Why don't you understand right or wrong?"
Zhang Kui sneered: "The achievements of the King of Yan are to the country and the court will reward themselves. This is also the duty of a minister. Yes, the merits of a military general and the title of Confucian master are ridiculous and extremely absurd?
The sages have been well-versed in history and have a spirit that has been passed down forever. The sages founded Confucianism was intended to educate all the people, regardless of the changes of dynasties.
If a warrior is a forceful man, he is arrogant and forcibly imparting the title of great master, this is a blasphemy to the saints and a humiliation to Confucianism and scholars all over the world!
From now on, if all warriors can earn the merits and honor the title of Confucianism, where will they place disciples of saints?"
Cheng Yuanjing took over the conversation and shouted: "We are not talented, so we should stop this absurd thing! Do you think all the scholars from all over the country?!"
Zhou Ziyan looked around the surrounding group of scholars and literati, raised her arms and shouted: "Blasphemy of the saint, his gentleness will be ruined, and his human ethics will be ruined! If you ignore it, the world will be so great that it will be like selfless scholars to set up a land of land!"
This is really incitemental.
That's true. If even the title of Confucian master is occupied by warriors, the status of scholars in the future can be imagined.
Therefore, Zhang Kui and the other two came to cause trouble for the ceremony today, mainly for this.
Resolutely defend the class interests of the gentry and scholar class.
There have never been only class interests in this world, but no class interests in the opposite class.
The onlookers' emotions were gradually mobilized, and there were many discussions and people were buzzing.
Even some of Wang Lin's supporters gradually felt that it was too absurd that the Kong family was honored as the great master of Confucianism for Wang Lin.
Is this what the saints do to please the powerful and powerful in their reputation?
It's really embarrassing.
Zhao Gou was scolded by the harsh voices and expressions of these three great scholars, and he could not say a word.
With his knowledge and insight, he is not a match for these three people.
It's even worse to be quarrels.
After all, Zhang Kui and others make a living by talking.
Kong Lin, dressed as a man, stood at the door of the Confucian Temple, looking even more embarrassed.
In fact, what the Kong family intends to do this is originally a tacit matter for everyone.
As a result, three well-known scholars opened this layer of window paper to the public.
In this case, even as the Lord Yan Sheng, it is difficult for Kong Jie to do it with a tough title and then give Wang Lin this title.
And the ceremony of honor was destroyed, so was her marriage unfinished?
But now the marriage between Kong and the King of Yan has spread all over the world. How should she deal with herself in the future?
Kong Lin's eyes were faint, and the girl's thoughts were ethereal, looking at Wang Lin, who was arrogant but still in a calm expression.
Zhao Gou looked at Wang Lin in embarrassment.
Wang Lin knew that he had to argue.
This is like when a minister encounters impeachment, he has to defend himself.
If he remained indifferent, his reputation would be completely ruined by Zhang Kui, Zhou Ziyan and Cheng Yuanjing.
The so-called rumors accumulate and destroy bones.
He looked at Zhang Kui and the other two and said slowly: "I would like to ask the three great scholars, I wonder if my emperor, Fan Wenzheng, is a scholar or a warrior?"
Fan Zhongyan?
Zhang Kui looked stern and said slightly: "A generation of famous ministers are immortal. Duke Wen Zheng is a famous minister of the Song Dynasty. If he has passed the imperial examination, he will naturally be considered a scholar."
Wang Lin smiled: "Can you know that Mr. Meishan know that Duke Fan Wenzheng defended the country and guarded the border. As the marshal of the commander of the army, he once won several battles against the Western Xia, guarded the border, and made immortal achievements for the Song Dynasty?"
Zhang Kui's expression changed.
But Wang Lin said again: "Therefore, Mr. Fan Wenzheng can also be called a military general and is well-versed in military affairs and strategies... Is this what the lay Buddhist Meishan doesn't object?"
Although Zhang Kui felt that Wang Lin was suspected of changing his concepts, he still had to admit that: "Wen Zheng Gong is both civil and military, and is known to everyone in the world."
Wang Lin smiled softly: "Since civil officials can be military generals, and since there is a saying in this world that both civil and military are both civil and military, then military generals can also be well-versed in literary affairs and knowledgeable scholars. Is it reasonable, right?"
Cheng Yuanjing frowned and said, "What exactly is the King of Yan going to say?"
Zhou Ziyan and the scholars present both looked at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin bowed to the three of them slightly: "Although I am not talented, I dare not compare myself with Fan Wenzheng's immortal civil and military achievements, but when I ask myself, I can still fight, get off the horse and read, have the country and the people, advocate the way of the saints, and practice it in my own hands.
All these years, it has been consistent!”
Zhang Kui and the other two looked at each other quickly, thinking that it turned out to be like this. It was really shameless to compare Fan Zhongyan to himself.
This King of Yan is really...
Zhang Kui sarcastically said: "I know that King Yan is very talented in poetry, and there have been several poems that have become famous all over the world. But poetry is actually a small way, entertainment, and entertainment. How can we benefit from protecting the country and the people?"
In modern people's words, theorists look down on writers.
In fact, this mentality spans thousands of years, and in modern society, there is still a big market.
University professors and cultural scholars, how many young poets can look down on humming?
The female poet who claimed to sleep with men across China, although he has become famous all over the world, has some social status?
Wang Lin's poems were famous in the Song Dynasty, but that's all. This is probably what it means.
Cheng Yuanjing also said calmly: "I wonder how many books and five classics of King Yan have read, have you ever entered the imperial examination?"
This is a ridiculous mockery of Wang Lin not being promoted to the imperial examination.
Although the emperor also gave Wang Lin the Jinshi, this is worthy of ridicule for scholars who have regarded the imperial examination as a standard.
In the same unit, they are 985 or 211. How do you compare your academic qualifications in the same party school?
"Haha, I haven't had any academic examinations, but I am a martial arts student, and I have been awarded the same Jinshi as the senior student." Wang Lin said calmly.
Zhang Kui suddenly laughed loudly: "Since the King of Yan confessed to being a martial arts student, how could he claim to be a scholar?"
It is hard for him to be over 60 years old, but he still sounds like a loud bell.
Cheng Yuanjing and Zhou Ziyan took the lead and laughed, and many scholars around him burst into laughter. However, Wang Lin glanced at him with sharp eyes, and many scholars immediately closed their mouths and put their smiles down and hung their heads honestly.
Seeing that Wang Lin was being ridiculed in public, Zhao Gou's face was gloomy and he almost jumped up and was about to curse.
This is his master, a master he has always regarded as an example and glory.
Although he also thinks that the master is a bit lustful... there are many problems, but the flaws do not conceal the merits.
Wang Lin seemed to be smiling and retorted: "If you don't go through the imperial examination, you won't be a scholar? So, do you have forgotten the allusion of failing to finish the tenth grade?"
This is about Luo Yin, a great scholar in the Tang Dynasty.
Luo Yin was very famous when he was a child. His poems and articles throughout his life were praised by the world. However, he had participated in more than ten Jinshi exams, and all returned in a defeat. It is known in history as "the first ten best".
But this cannot erase Luo Yin's subsequent works and is famous for being famous in Shilin.
In fact, there are many similar examples after Song, but Wang Lin can't just say it at this time.
For example, Chen Xianzhang, a Ming Dynasty man.
Chen Xianzhang failed to get the exam.
After more than ten years of teaching, he has been full of students all over the world. Zhan Ruoshui, the minister of the three ministers of etiquette, official, and military affairs, as well as Liang Chu, the chief assistant of the Tai Pavilion, all came from his disciples.
In short, a person who is not a Jinshi taught a large group of Jinshi.
Emperor Wanli remembered his great achievements in his studies and ordered him to worship the Confucius Temple. He also became a person who did not pass the exam and worship the Confucius Temple.
Zhang Kui's face froze and hesitated for a moment.
There are such people. It cannot be said that Wang Lin is just creating something out of nothing.
But is there any suspicion of changing the concept in this analogy?
Zhou Ziyan pondered: "Can the King of Yan compare himself to the great scholars of the ancient times? Then, I have to take the exam for the King of Yan."
Wang Lin bowed calmly: "I listen to me with my ears."
Zhou Ziyan stared at Wang Lin and blurted out a very simple question: "What is the way to university?"
This is to check whether Wang Lin has read classics and classics.
Judging from the basic simple question he asked, it shows that this person is actually unwilling to make Wang Lin too embarrassed.
Wang Lin said without hesitation: "The way of university is to be clear about virtue, to be close to the people, and to stop at the ultimate good."
Zhang Kui followed closely: "So, what is the way to study in King Yan?"
Wang Lin remained calm: "I read the books of sages alone and thought that the way to study is to be determined to learn and persevere; the second is to learn to achieve the Tao and learn to achieve benevolence; the third is to learn and not be ashamed to ask questions; the fourth is to combine learning and thinking, review the old and learn the new;
Five is to learn without constant teachers, and to learn from the wise; six is to apply what you have learned and integrate knowledge and action.”
Seeing that Wang Lin actually answered like a stream of answers, he could not help but talk, with allusions, Zhang Kui and the other two were obviously a little surprised.
Although this is not a profound knowledge, it seems to be too profound for a general?
But they knew that Wang Lin was a keyboard warrior on the Internet in later generations. He often mingled in various cultural forums and geckos. He often read online historical novels. He read too many of these things.
Well, he has never seen a pirated copy.
Zhou Ziyan looked at Wang Lin deeply, and he suddenly realized that the fighter and the powerful King Yan in front of him could not be underestimated.
Seeing that the three old masters in front of him were already showing signs of being frightened by him, Wang Lin curled his lips in his heart and wanted to laugh.
Zhou Ziyan suddenly said, "Since the King of Yan is familiar with the meaning of the scriptures and claims to be my Confucian children, then I still want to ask for advice, what is the essence of my Confucian classics?"
Zhang Kui and Cheng Yuanjing both stared at Wang Lin, their faces slightly solemn.
If the previous casual exams were just simple questions and answers, it was related to common sense of Confucian classics.
Then, the proposition proposed by Zhou Ziyan is a bit grand, metaphysically, belonging to the spring and snow.
It is very good at examining the theoretical level of a scholar in the classics.
The onlookers around him also looked at Wang Lin with bright eyes.
Cheng Yuanjing sneered: "Wangshan Gong, isn't this difficult for King Yan? King Yan may have read a few classics of scriptures. Well, I heard that King Yan was a teacher in the past and relied on his life as a saint... But that's it
How could he tell the magnificent and righteousness?"
Zhao Gou could not help but: "The Master said: I must have my teacher when I walk in three people. The sage is humble and studious, and he is not ashamed to ask. Does Mr. Cheng think that he is more academic than a saint and is enough to be arrogant to all the people? But he is alone but
How did you hear that Cheng Gong was also a tutor in the Cheng Family School in Luoyang in the past?”
Cheng Yuanjing was a tutor when he was young.
As soon as Zhao Gou said this, Cheng Yuanjing's old face turned red and his mouth was trembling, and he didn't know how to refute it.
Wang Lin smiled and secretly praised Zhao Gou, fighting back beautifully.
