Chapter 218: Stirring up the turbid and raising the clear!
After Shen Yi came to this world, or after he became the new Shen Yi, the person who helped him the most was Mr. Lu in front of him.
Without Mr. Lu, Shen Yi would most likely have died in the jail of Jiangdu County Government. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would probably have escaped with his life while being exiled. The best situation now would be to hide in a certain Shankaka and "farm". In short
It's going to take a lot of hardship.
And now, Shen Yi has transformed from the young man who was almost tortured to death in the prison more than a year ago to the Yayuan Gong who took the new provincial examination and became the "Master Shen" of Jiangdu Prefecture. Master Lu was the greatest contributor to this.
This is a great nobleman in Shen Yi's life. Even he was able to meet Zhang Jian, enter Liquan Tower, get help from Zhao Shilang in Jiankang, and even be taught by Old Man Gu. In the final analysis, it was all because of Master Lu's face.
He is also Mr. Lu’s personal connection.
Shen Yi knew this very well.
Therefore, he thanked Lu Anshi from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing Shen Yi knelt down and kowtowed, Master Lu stood up from the chair, stretched out his hand to help Shen Yi up, and said with a smile: "Didn't you already kowtow to become a disciple before you went to Jiankang? It's just a supplementary ceremony for the apprenticeship."
"Now, Qilang, you are already the seventh-ranked Yayuan Gong in the provincial examination, and you are also the highest-ranked scholar in our Jiangdu Prefecture this year. Accepting you as a student will bring glory to your face as a teacher."
Master Lu's words echoed Shen Yi's words.
Shen Yi stood up quickly and said with a smile: "In the next two days, I will ask my father to bring the teacher a bunch of gifts, and then I will hold a formal apprenticeship banquet in Jiangdu City with wine and dinner."
"There's no need to go to such trouble."
Lu Anshi said quietly: "In a few days, we will set up a banquet or two in the academy, invite the gentlemen of the academy, and the students in the academy who have passed the current examinations and have returned to Jiangdu to have a meal together, and announce at the banquet
That’s it for once.”
"This is a small matter."
Master Lu looked at Shen Yi and said slowly: "The key is whether you take the exam next year or four years later. It is a very important matter for you. Brother Changping even sent a letter back specifically for this,
Let my master discuss this matter with you."
Shen Yi was thoughtful, he lowered his head and said: "Teacher, Uncle Zhao should have told you his opinions in the letter?"
"Um."
Lu Anshi exhaled a breath and said: "What he means is that you'd better take the scientific examination next year. Even if you are only a top three scholar and a Jinshi, you can take advantage of the wave of renewal of the court next year to become a capital official. As for your reputation,
I will make up for my shortcomings with my achievements in the future.”
Shen Yi sat opposite Master Lu again. He looked at Lu Anshi and asked, "Teacher, since you said this, it means that you do not agree with Master Zhao's opinion."
"He has stayed in officialdom for too long."
Lu Anshi sighed and said: "It has become too utilitarian. Even if you go to the entrance examination next year and I will give you a job as a capital official in the second half of the year, it will have no effect on the court. And the status of this fellow Jinshi,
It will be weighing on you for decades to come, and among other things, when you quarrel with others, you will be the loser."
Having said this, Lu Anshi gave his own suggestions.
"Master, I hope you can stay in Jiangdu and calm down for a while."
Shen Yi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then lowered his eyebrows and said, "Teacher, since Uncle Zhao has written to you, you should know about the Di Bao. The student thinks that the Di Bao is very important."
"And if a student doesn't go to court for a day, he can only write but not ask about the newspaper, and he can read but not talk about it."
Lu Anshi frowned slightly: "I have heard about the Di Bao matter, but I have the same view as your Uncle Zhao. This thing is just a side detail before you are named on the gold list. You don't need to consider it now."
Shen Yi shook his head slowly, very firmly.
"Teacher, in addition to earning a reputation, I also want to do something when I take the exam."
Lu Anshi finally looked at Shen Yi and asked, "What's going on?"
"Stir up the turbid and raise the clear!"
Lu Anshi frowned again: "What does this have to do with when you will take the exam?"
"teacher,
To stir up the turbid and raise the clear requires means, and this Di Bao is one of the means that the disciples have figured out."
"What about clear and turbidity?"
Master Lu looked into Shen Yi's eyes, as if he wanted to look straight into Shen Yi's true heart.
"In your heart, what is pure and what is turbid?"
"It can be big or small."
This is something Shen Yi has already thought about clearly. He said slowly: "Teacher, in the hearts of disciples, there are many turbid things in the world. To put it mildly, it is Ma Jun, Luo Maocai, and Fan Dongcheng."
"These are my little boys from Jiangdu Prefecture."
His face was calm: "When I achieve success in the future, I should sweep away these filthy things for Jiangdu fathers."
Master Lu was stunned.
Looking at Shen Yi's resolute expression, he couldn't tell for a moment whether his disciple was "upright and upright" or "small-minded".
Or both?
Master Lu was silent for a while and asked: "In your eyes, what is great turbidity?"
Shen Yi stood up from the chair, walked to the door of the study, opened the door and took a look. After making sure there was no one outside, he came to Lu Anshi and whispered: "Teacher, I have been in Jiankang for half a year, so I know more or less."
After reading some of the current structure of the imperial court, in the eyes of the disciples, there are many dirty things in Jiankang City, such as the prime minister who is lying in a state of disgrace, and the Zhao family, the general who has occupied the Huaihe River Navy for many years, but has become a coward..."
"These are all turbid things from the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"However, these turbid objects still cannot be regarded as great turbidity."
Lu Anshi took a deep breath and asked, "Then what's the big turmoil in your heart?"
"It's Northern Qi."
Shen Yi said slowly: "During the past six months, I have been in Jiankang Liquan Tower, uukanshu.com www.uukanshu.com, and I have seen many unique books that I can't usually see. These books describe some shocking things, such as the six
The process of crossing south ten years ago, for example, the process of Qi people going south sixty years ago, and..."
"And more than ten years ago, Zhou Jinan of the Northern Qi Dynasty went on a killing spree between the Jianghuai River and the Huaihe River."
"There are also some books that record some shocking deeds of the Northern Qi royal family in Yandu."
Shen Yi said in a deep voice: "At that time, my disciples determined that these Qi people were the great evil in the world and the great turmoil in the world!"
Shen Yi's words were full of indignation and righteousness.
However, he had some words that he did not say explicitly to Mr. Lu.
Because the word "purity" essentially uses Shen Yi as the criterion for judgment, that is, based on Shen Yi's own interests. If someone touches Shen Yi's interests and is detrimental to Shen Yi himself, then that person will naturally
It is also a dirty thing in the world!
This standard even includes the young emperor in Jiankang City.
After hearing Shen Yi's "argument between innocence and turbidity", Lu Anshi sat in his seat, lowered his head and thought for a long time without speaking.
I don't know how long it took before he raised his head and looked at Shen Yi. After a while of silence, he sighed slightly: "Qilang's plan is so great that he is far worse than being a teacher."
Shen Yi smiled modestly.
"This disciple is just thinking wildly. Everything must be done according to one's ability. In this life, if the disciple cannot clear away the great turmoil in the world, he will be satisfied if he can clear up some minor turbidities in Jiangdu."
"Since you have your own ideas, teachers will not interfere with your decision."
The Jiangzuo scholar looked at Shen Yi and finally spoke with emotion.
"What you said today can be regarded as a resolution in front of my teacher. Since you have made a great ambition, as a teacher, I sincerely hope that your great ambition will come true."
