The angry minister of the Ministry of Rites took the "Secret Scroll of the Confucius Mansion" that he bought for 300 guan, and led a group of people from the Ministry of Rites to find Kong Yingda. Everyone was a disciple of the saint, and in the past, they all respected Kong Yingda, a descendant of the saint.
Yes, but today, in the face of 'big right and wrong', no one can care much about it.
Some people were sad and angry: "How can you join the bandits!"
"Kong Jijiu, who is as virtuous and highly respected as you, is it also because of Li Mu's lustful power?"
"Disgraceful and chilling!"
Kong Yingda didn't say a word for a long time. There was also a "Secret Volume of the Confucius" on his desk. He was a descendant of the Kong family. He was also going to take the imperial examination this year. He had been staying in his house. When he went out to buy newspapers in the morning, he bought it by the way.
I came back. Since I left very early, I only spent the same amount of money. It is the least money I spent today to buy this "Confucian Secret Scroll".
"I have nothing to say. Part of the content of this book was indeed given to Li Mu by me. But it was given to him a few months ago in order to repay his favor. However, the explanations of the scriptures given to him
, is completely different from this one. All my colleagues at Hongwen Museum can testify to this."
Kong Yingda opened the "Secret Volume of the Confucius" and said: "Although this book is signed with my name, I will not admit that it was written by me. Most of the contents here have been changed by Li Mu
Especially the information given to the person who asked the question later. How can I know such detailed information? Even if I know it, how can I know how many concubines someone has, how many lovers there are in Pingkangfang, and other secrets? Gentlemen.
You might as well think about it, could Kong Yingda do such a mean thing?"
"This..." The Minister of Rites and everyone looked at each other and sighed. Indeed, as Kong Yingda said, this style of behavior is the standard Li Mu style. Kong Yingda was a 'standard' person who grew up under the influence of Confucius and Mencius.
Great Confucian, he would never do such things that go against the way of a saint.
"Forgive me Kong Jijiu, we were also impatient and offended. But what should we do now? Li Mu has almost predicted all the possibilities of the question. With him messing it up, the Ming Jing test can no longer be taken. This book
"The Secret Scroll of Confucius" covers the Five Classics, Three Rites, Three Traditions, etc., and almost all important chapters and sentences are shot. We can't just ignore the trivial matters and ignore the great righteousness, and only focus on trivial matters. How sad, right?"
Kong Yingda also frowned, and he could not think of a way to crack it. In the examination of Ming Jing, he first posted the text, and then took the oral test. He asked ten questions about the main principles and answered three questions about current affairs. Li Mu refined all the meanings of the scriptures and included all the main chapters and sentences containing thoughts in this book.
It’s in the book. Whether it’s an essay or an oral exam, as long as you memorize this book, you will basically be able to pass it. If you want him to fail, there are only two ways, either not to test the content of the scriptures, or,
The important content is not tested, but if the unimportant content is tested, why should we memorize the meaning of the scriptures? And for Li Mu, if we don’t test the important scriptures and meanings, doesn’t it mean that we have acknowledged the power of Li Mu and stumped the entire Ministry of Rites? History Book
As a reminder, the scholars of the Zhenguan Dynasty will be infamy and dishonored for thousands of years.
Kong Yingda pondered for a while and then said: "Now we are on the verge of taking the exam. The exam will be held in a few days. If the system is temporarily changed, no one can afford to lose this person. The post and oral exam will still be carried out according to the original plan. Now I can write articles.
Only when current affairs are taken care of."
The Minister of Rites asked: "What do you mean?"
"Policy theory has no fixed number. It can't be found in the scriptures. If you don't have an idea, memorizing it will be useless. Moreover, the quality of policy theory will be different from different angles. As long as you come up with a difficult policy theory,
, even if the students make no mistakes in their essays and oral exams, they can still be distinguished."
"Yes!" Everyone said yes, and suddenly the Minister of Rites said again: "No! Which current affairs policy is better than Li Mu's? Which current affairs policy was not made by him?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. The so-called current policy refers to the word current affairs, which is about asking for solutions to current problems. And among the major events in the court today, such as salt, mines, Turks, and the New Deal, which one has nothing to do with Li Mu?
If he was allowed to answer, wouldn't it be exactly what he wanted? Everyone was at a loss again. Kong Yingda's method was to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. Although it could distinguish the students from the top, it still couldn't stop Li Mu.
"There is also the Jinshi subject!" someone shouted to boost morale: "The Jinshi subject tests Ci and Fu. I don't believe it. Li Mu is proficient in everything."
Before he finished speaking, someone poured cold water on him and said, "Don't forget the poems written by Li Mu. Which one can you write?"
"What do you mean? According to what you said, don't we have to admit defeat now? Then what are we talking about? Just admit defeat and let everyone go back to their respective homes!"
"How can poetry and fu be the same? After all, poetry is a minor way, but fu is the right way. Li Mu's poetry is great, but it does not mean that his fu is equally great. Nowadays, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor, and then reformed, there will be nothing for a while.
As a result, haven't you seen that the students outside are now going to be in trouble? I don't know which smart person has touched the villain's mind and wants Li Mu to take the blame. Is he the one who is willing to take the blame? Let him come up with this
Waiting for the means of revenge to come, now the students' hearts are all about Li Mu, and we are very passive, very passive!"
"You are so unreasonable. When we were discussing that day, I remember you were one of the first few people to agree. Why does it seem like today it has nothing to do with you and the fault is all our fault? You still have a conscience when you are so clean in your shirk.
What? Is it possible that you want to switch sides and go to Li Mu?"
"Hey, this dear friend, you still have the nerve to criticize me? Don't think that no one will know if you are secretive. You found Changsun Chong through your connections and wanted your youngest son to study at Datang Technical School. What are you thinking?
I'm a fool, can't I guess?"
"I...you are so slanderous!"
"Oh, whoever does something shameful knows it in his heart!"
The two officials were arguing and finally got into a fight. Kong Yingda looked at the two people and thought of the contents of the letter sent by Li Mu yesterday. He couldn't help but sigh. Li Mu was right.
That’s right, it’s a mess, it’s a piece of loose sand! What great things can be accomplished by being with such people?
That's all, that's all, even if I'm complicit in this, I'd better accept his kindness. A library? It's a new thing. In this era when anyone with a book wants to hide it in a cave, how can it be used?
To collect all the books in the world and provide them for everyone to borrow and copy, this kind of ambition is far beyond the rabble in front of us.
