Guiqing

He had read books, and it wasn't until his eldest son Liu Xuewen went to school in Tongjiagou that he learned to write his own name and read some characters. He could barely read and half guess the meaning of the notice.

Listening to it now, naturally I didn't hear anything, I just felt that what the elder brother said was very comfortable to listen to, and seemed to be easier to remember than what the eldest son babbled when he was young.

As the eldest grandson of the third generation of the Liu family, Liu Chengping is also the only one, and he is usually doted on by the whole family, especially after his father lost two children in a row because he couldn't keep up with nutrition and couldn't rest from work. It is the treasure of everyone in the family, including uncles and uncles.

But he is sensible as a child, and he takes the initiative to be careful and does not talk about it. Although he cherished it when he learned to study with his father, he never said that he would buy a couple of bamboo slips at home. The bamboo slips were sold, although his eyes were red with pity, he still smiled and helped move the bamboo slips out.

Liu Chengping like this, although he knew a lot of characters, he hadn't read many slips.

So he didn't think the things taught by his cousin were so great, he just read them catchy, and felt that Gong Twelve's practice of drawing and writing on the sand with a branch was really fresh.

It wasn't until Liu Xuewen set up the duck house and came back to pick up the mats made by Liu Mao. He saw that he made one, and he sat down and started weaving——

It was Gong Twelve's idea to leave big doors and windows for the ducks, and to pull them up for ventilation and to cover them for warmth. Fortunately, Liu Mao and his son didn't care about the work.

The general appearance of the duck house was built one by one, and some of them made water tanks and food troughs according to Gong Twelve's intentions, and some flushed some water to check whether the sewage discharge function was qualified...

Because Liu Xuewen's bamboo weaving skills are not exquisite but he does it quickly, he helped his father weave door mats, window mats, etc., and listened to it casually. At first, he just thought it was his son playing around with his cousins. Suddenly exclaimed:

"Big brother taught you, don't you Gong family's unique enlightenment method? This, this..."

But it turned out that although the current dynasty has relaxed the restrictions on book collection and literacy, the imperial court now runs some official schools, and some great Confucians who are close to the current dynasty also give lectures, but how can this be said? It is the craftsmanship of weaving mats Well, although almost everyone knows how to do this one or two times, some of the little tricks here also pay attention to passing on to your children and not to your children!

The skill of weaving mats is still the same, not to mention the poetry and books that can be used as an official after reading it?

Big families have their own ways of raising dolls, and the enlightenment of poetry and books also has their own particularities.

Liu Xuewen didn't dare to say that he was familiar with the scriptures, but he had read them for ten years anyway, and passed the exams for all his children. It was because of the drastic changes in his family that he didn't have the nerve to make it difficult for his family and leave him alone, so he stopped. In terms of academics, not to mention the scholar who had to pass all five exams, because of the neglect of studies, the quota for children was kept for three years, and in the fourth year, because he failed to pass three exams three times in a row , was snatched away.

But even if he doesn't have any fame nowadays, Liu Xuewen asked himself that he is familiar with the enlightenment books circulated outside. As for other books, as long as the Tongjia Academy originally had them, he didn't say he was familiar with them, but at least he had read them.

But I have never heard of these Gong Twelve Readings, which are catchy, easy to memorize and memorize, and contain many allusions from sages and good words to encourage learning:

"It's a good enlightenment book that I've never heard of. I..."

Liu Xuewen is very willing that his son can learn it, even if he only learns one or two things, it is a good thing that can be used inexhaustibly, but he finally gritted his teeth:

"But this kind of thing is a secret that is not handed down by each family. I have occasionally heard dolls with foreign surnames in your village get together to compare their endorsements these days, but there has never been a single word like this...

I think it is because the elders in your clan really love you that they let you know that most of them are not passed on.

It's just that the elders love you, so you should be more careful. No matter how good my uncle's family is, my cousin is just like my elder brother, but it's not my elder brother. He can't learn the secrets of your clan! "

He was very reluctant to take away such an opportunity from his son, but Liu Xuewen was always a kind and honest person.In the past, when he had to choose something from his cousin, he felt guilty, but he knew that it was just a little difficult and frugal for his cousin, but it was a life-saving thing for his own family, so he accepted it with the cheek, even the food and shelter these days , Not very polite.

But some things are always different.

Liu Xuewen also sternly told his son:

"Big brother will teach Shuanzi to read from now on, you will not be allowed to come near! Three steps... no, three feet is not enough, you just look for some work, even if it is to find some pigweed, you are not allowed to stay in the house, if you can't do it. Going home first also makes it!

As for what you learned today, I don't force you to forget it, but you are not allowed to mention a single word to others! "

Gong Twelve was stunned.

Nima said that stealing characters in the previous dynasty might be punished with a cane or even beheaded, but now, is it so important to listen to a few lines of the "San Zi Jing"?

He wanted to say that this thing had nothing to do with any clan secrets, but suddenly he got excited:

Mr. System only said that this is an enlightenment book, and he did say that it is an enlightenment book adapted according to the special situation here, but he really didn’t say that it is an enlightenment book that already exists here?

Shouldn't it be unique?

Thinking about how much Gong Qixi and others valued paper and other things, Gong Twelve swallowed back his words and said:

"Uncle and the others didn't explain this to me, so I went back and asked, if it is possible, I will still teach.

If it doesn't work, anyway, there is ethnology, and the next one is the slack season and the cat winter, uncle is not short of the labor of his cousin, right?

I'll go find uncle and talk about it, let him go to the village to learn and follow along? "

Liu Xuewen was so happy that there is nothing wrong with it. If you say that the Liu family is really not bad for an eight-year-old boy like Liu Chengping to work, it's just that his family wanted to take his cousin—that is, Gong Adie—back home in the early years. Regarding the matter of raising, there was some tension with the uncle's family on the other side of Tongjiagouzi.

Uncle himself was doing well, although he was bewildered by the people behind him, he was a little confused about small things, but he could still see big things clearly.

But my uncle's uncle took back the dowry because the Liu family brought back his nephew, and because the Cheng family behind him couldn't snatch the relatives of the Gong family and so on, he couldn't help but look down on the Liu family. .

Liu Xuewen himself went to Tongjiagou attached school because his uncle was still alive. He has a good temper and can endure no matter how many gossips and dislikes. He read until he couldn't read any more.

In Liu Chengping's generation, there is really no way to take advantage of it, not even Liu Xuewu and others can get in!

Liu Xuewen was optimistic about the Gong family school early in the morning, and Xiaowang village school was also very good, but unfortunately, there was Gongliuxi later. Their old Liu family was at a loss, so they didn't have the nerve to mention it, and they didn't even have the nerve to call on their cousins. the door.

Now, the relationship with his in-laws has somewhat eased, and it was Gong Twelve who spoke first, how could Liu Xuewen not be tempted?

Tao Shi was chopping pig food and heard it, almost chopping it to the point that he didn't care about his fingers, he just cared about Le: "That's a good feeling, that's a good feeling!"

After all, Liu Mao's grandparents still think about it: "It's good, Shu Xiu can still use his work to pay for it, but... well, I haven't found anyone from other villages, so it's not good to let the big brother sit on the wax!"

Gong Twelve just laughed: "Not sure about anything else, the village school is definitely fine, but we have to agree first, my family needs to raise a lot of ducks and geese, and we have the original chickens, rabbits and pigs, I really can't take care of it, cousin If you want to stay, besides the job of resisting Shuxiu, you will also have to support my family."

Dow said, "What's the matter? He usually has to work at home. Brother, if you have anything to do, just order him!"

Liu Mao, Liu Xuewen, and even Liu Xuebin and Liu Xue were also very happy: "Yes, yes, not to mention Taiping, just the few of us, big brother doesn't mind, we will do work for you too! Do whatever you want, no matter how delicate it is Your livestock house will also accompany you to toss!"

Apa Gong laughed with a "poof": "I just said he was panicking, right?"

Although tears came from laughing, it was also joyful to laugh.

☆, embellish pen

Seeing Father Gong's expression in his eyes, Gong Twelfth General patted Xiao Shuanzi who was inexplicably happy but also a little frustrated, and turned to find Gong Qixie.

Sure enough, after casually reading a few words from the "Three Character Classic", Gong Qixi's eyes lit up:

"Good stuff! Good stuff! Did you make this?"

Gong Twelve was not that thick-skinned, and only got: "I heard it in my dream."

Gong Qiexi said "Hey" twice, and couldn't help saying bitterly: "I don't know what kind of luck you have, kid, why are all the good things going to your side?"

After all, I was still happy, "Do you still hear it now? Can you write it down?"

Palace Twelve ==: Willing to give you the job of endorsement?It's a pity that Mr. System doesn't accept subcontracting business!Otherwise, I would be willing to charge a few percent of the handling fee!

When he was depressed, he panted deliberately: "I can't hear it anymore...not bad but I recited it all."

Gong Qiexi's expression changed interestingly with his every move, and he stared again:

"At such a young age, what's the point of panting for a few words?"

Then he asked again: "Did you really memorize it? How long is the book? Do you have any mistakes in memory? Come on, come on, recite it with me quickly, and I will write it down and refer to it carefully."

As he spoke, he proudly picked up a brush, and took out a stack of paper with great care, but he was not willing to use it, so he spread out a bundle of bamboo slips instead:

"Come on, come on, memorize it quickly, Grandpa will write it down for you. Even if there are no mistakes or omissions, let's write it down quickly and feel at ease, right?"

Palace Twelve ==: You are the one who needs peace of mind, right?I have nothing to worry about.

But looking at the old man with gray hair and beard, he insisted on smiling his old face like an old chrysanthemum, and his expectant appearance is really, ahem, not to mention hurting the eyes, it is too strange, so there is no Taking Qiao again, he memorized a paragraph quickly, and saw the word written by Gong Qixi——

Horizontal and vertical are passable, but it is obvious that the old man of the Gong family has not been extravagant enough to practice calligraphy with plain silk and bamboo in the past. This brush is far more unfamiliar than a carving knife.

In addition, the ink is solid, and I am not used to paper. The characters I write are just passable horizontally and vertically. Even the speed is really frightening. It took him eight times to write it out, and Gong Twelve always felt it was more uncomfortable than the moment of memorizing it!

I couldn't help pretending to dig into my sleeves, but actually I took out the writing brush that Mr. System rewarded him after completing the first reading task from the system, dipped some ink at will, and brushed...

Not to mention how good the handwriting is, anyway, the speed is seven or eight times faster than that of Gong and the last, and even though Gong Twelve was unwilling to hang his wrists to practice calligraphy, at least he watched many aunts and cousins ​​at home practicing calligraphy, what? The willow body, face, and body can't be distinguished, but they look familiar; he has also learned a few watercolor ink graffiti, although the brush is not the same as the pen used for writing, but he is used to it, and the writing is easy. Quick, what about the font, shocking the aborigines who haven't even developed the official script, how effective it is, just look at Gong Qixi's mesmerized appearance.

It is obviously just a book for children's enlightenment, no matter how catchy it is, it is for the enlightenment of little dolls, but Gong Qixi walked back and forth around the rolled bamboo slips, and his hands did not stay around the bamboo slips. The whole person rushed forward to kiss dozens of mouths, or hugged the bamboo slips in his arms and never separated. It was so fun to mention, but because he cherished too much, what was written earlier seemed to be done, and he didn't. Willing to really touch it.

Gong Twelve really couldn't understand his excitement: "Isn't it just a copy of the "San Zi Jing"? Is it so rare?"

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper that Gong Qixiu himself was not willing to use, and tried to see how the ink would absorb and smudge after it was painted on. Then, with one hand of pen and one hand of paper, the paper was filled almost in a blink of an eye, and a new one was opened.

At first, Gong Qiexi watched him throw away the paper he had written on, and stomped his feet:

"Leave it well to dry! It's a pity to smear the ink stains, not to mention the trouble of sorting them out later!"

In the end, after a closer look, where did Gong Twelve just throw it around?It is obvious that one by one is spread out one by one on the other side of the table and chairs.

Then he sighed again: "Your skill, alas, why aren't you a real boy?"

Gong Twelve got annoyed when he heard this, stopped his hands and stared: "Do you still want this exclusive collector's edition?"

←← This guy's cheeky!

The partial palace and the last are quite fond of his style, leaning over and stretching his neck, staring and smacking his tongue, he didn't realize what he said that made Gong Twelve impatient, but he still flattered him:

"Yes, yes! Good twelve, you write well, and uncle and grandpa will give you a big refill fee later."

Gong Twelve curled his lips, he has taken reassurance now, although he still has to put his heart into saving JJ points, but he is no better than the stingy guy who was full of burning hearts, really wanting something strange, who else in the world can list it better than Mr. System the whole?

Sui Dafang said, "Let's forget about embellishing the pen. I'll be grateful when you don't talk about the brat when you grow old!"

It was only then that Gong Qixi was willing to look away from the more extraordinary words written on the paper:

"Yo, don't you see that Xiao Shi Twelve is quite ambitious?"

Gong Twelfth: "I can't talk about ambition, but my body is less than a man's body? How can I be weaker than a man? How many men can I know? I don't know how to be a man! I really don't like people talking about it. You need to know that brother can hold up half the sky, but now there are few people who are experienced enough to see this, but it’s not that brother is incapable.”

Gong Qiexi was about to laugh, but he remembered something, murmured "Brother can hold up half the sky" a few times, and then suddenly realized:

"It's no wonder that many ancestors and gods don't like it, but they chose you for such a small...cough cough! But it turns out that in the future, that seat should be suitable..."

Immediately aroused Gong Twelve's appetite, and refused to say what kind of seat that seat is, and what should be done, Ren Gong Twelve stopped writing and took Joe, but refused to say, just stroked his beard and smiled mysteriously:

"Since you heard such a sentence in your dream and haven't listened to the rest, it must be the idea of ​​the gods. Don't worry, you will know it in the future!"

Palace Twelve ==: What do you know?It's obvious that your brain is too big, okay?The most annoying thing is that under the inspiration of my uncle, I opened my mind, but I refused to say it and have fun together!

But no matter how I put it, I’m not ashamed. I only wrote half of it and put my hands on it. I also finished the second half of the article dully, and swallowed back the words I just said in a blink of an eye:

"Grandpa, look, our family says that the fee for finishing touches is too much, but it's also a family of grandparents. If there is something I need, you should help me, right?"

Gong Qietou didn't return: "What evil do you want to do?"

Palace Twelve:

"It's nothing bad. Isn't it just how many members of my uncle's family have come to visit relatives in the past few days? The pigpen and duck house built by my uncle are quite to my liking, but the relatives of the family, what are you talking about?" The salary is not good either.

It just so happens that although my cousin has a mediocre brain, he is serious and hard-working. I taught Shuanzi a few lines of the "Three Character Classics", and he was able to write them down silently!

It is my uncle who thinks that the "Three Character Classic" is a secret that is not handed down in our family, so he dare not let him continue to learn, and he is not allowed to mention half a word...

I thought about it, how about letting my cousin stay and learn from you in the village school?Of course, it would be even better if you can enter ethnology!It just so happens that he doesn't have to be greedy for me to teach Shuanzi to read, and he can also stay and help me manage the livestock in the old house——

I hate the animal smell, it smells like three showers a day. "

Gong Qiexi: "Take three showers?"

Whether it's for yourself or for livestock, it's too exaggerated, right?Especially now that the severe drought has just passed, even though the grain has been harvested, the water level of the Baishui River is still much lower than in previous years!

What's more, no matter how much water is available, bathing three times a day is really...

Knowing that brothers love Jie, isn't this too much?

Shocked by this, Gong Qixi didn't bother with other things, only said:

"You said it yourself. I can't say no to the village school. It's just that Lao Wu... After all, there is something about Liuxi, you still have to talk about it."

Gong Twelve grinned: "Do you still need to say it? Grandpa saw my cousin outside the village school a few times before telling me—"

There is no such thing as making the horse work but not grazing the horse.

Grandfather also said that if there is someone in the Liu family who can pull it off, a little push will save Dad from worrying about it, and it may not be impossible to give Ah Qi a little help. "

Gong Qiexi raised his eyebrows: "What? Did the old Liu family and your grandpa and grandpa explain it clearly?"

Gong Twelve shook his head:

"I didn't explain anything specifically, and I didn't talk much. It's just...

It's really a pity for Uncle Liuxi, only the dead are gone, since even the Tao family has not been punished, for the Liu family, grandpa and grandpa are only looking at papa's face.

In the future, we will understand in our hearts that no relatives should be trusted. "

Gong Qiexi stroked his beard:

"Do you still understand this? I thought you were so coaxed that you couldn't tell the difference between the south, the east, and the north——

Brothers and nephews in the orthodox clan haven't heard of the "Three Character Classics", but have you heard it first? "

Gong Twelve blinked:

"Just a few words, just to try people's hearts!

Besides, it always has to spread——

It's best to spread the word in this and February, although cats are popular here in winter, but the capital and other places are bustling! "

Gong Qiexi raised his eyebrows: "Spread it out? Are you willing? Are you sure that everyone in the clan is also willing?"

Gong Twelve smiled:

"Are you testing me? What's your reluctance?

It's just something for children's enlightenment. Instead of cherishing it with a broom, it's better to conform to the meaning of enlightening people's wisdom today, and to earn a reputation for our palace family as a teacher for thousands of children in the world, and for thousands of years. Let's spread it as an introduction! "

Gong Qiexi nodded slowly:

"That's right, although you are... you are indeed more generous than most men."

☆, return to the world

Palace Twelve is indeed not an ordinary atmosphere.

He has already seen the benefits of being a teacher for all generations—at least one or two thousand years—but when Grandpa Gong said:

"It's a pity to give him such a big name a baby who will only be nine years old in the next year."

At that time, he had nothing to give up:

"Brother Qi Clan was selected as a scholar at the age of 15, and he will also participate in Qiu Wei next year? This reputation is a good thing, not to mention that the examiner will definitely get it, but it is more or less useful when weighed among a few people.

Or Grandpa, he has the status of a juren, and he is the first batch of juren who passed the exam after he succeeded to the throne. Those great Confucians are also the pioneers who opened up the wisdom of the people!To say that summing up the "Three Character Classics" is more trustworthy.

Or it can be said that Uncle Uncle brought a few brothers and uncles of the scholar clan to make it out. "

Grandpa Gong nodded repeatedly when he heard it, and there was no one among the clan elders who was moved, Gong Qiming only smiled:

"Are you willing? This is not a reputation for a lifetime, but a legacy that generations can't spend."

Gong Twelve One raised his eyebrows:

"Could it be that I'm not a member of the palace family? Could it be that Shuanzi and I don't have a share in the legacy of the clan? Could it be——

Uncle, do you think that all I can take out is such a small thing? "

In the last sentence, the eyes were staring at each other, and there was a sudden burst of pride.

Seeing the resemblance between his eyebrows and his second son, Grandpa Gong was both happy and sighed.

Gong Qiexi was clutching the bound "San Zi Jing" tightly in his hand, and at the moment when he was reluctant to let go, he was pleasantly surprised:

"What else is there? Write it to me quickly!"

Gong Qiming waved his hand: "The future is the future, brother, don't worry."

Nodding to Gong Twelve again: "You are generous, you don't stick to your own strength, you think about the family in everything, that's very good. It's just—"

He also raised his eyebrows, the old man's arrogance is no less than that of the young man Gong Twelve:

"You only think about the clan, but being a clan will take away your meritorious reputation, but it is a big mistake!"

"As you said, it's not bad to give this reputation to the elder brother and a few scholars in the clan to give them momentum, but they are not you.

Whether it is due to your talent, or the blessings of your ancestors and gods, you are the only one who dares to say that you can come up with something better than the "Three Character Classic", the method of exterminating locusts, and the art of papermaking and printing. "

"In the long run, the reputation given to you is better than that given to the eldest brother or other juniors.

not to mention--"

"From the perspective of the long-term continuation of the prosperity of the clan, this is an act of depriving the clan members of their fame at will, and it is absolutely unprecedented."

"In a clan, there can be distinctions between the descendants and concubines, and orderly seniority, but you can't easily win the achievements of the humble just because of the status. That is the source of disaster for the clan and the root of chaos."

Gong Qiming looked around at the crowd, and said loudly:

"I have established the rules today, not only for this matter, but also for everything in the future. The interests of the overall situation must be taken into account, but if it is not a matter of life and death, no one is allowed to use the so-called greater interests, or more shameless things. In the name of protection, to deprive the tribe of wealth or achievements!

——If my Gong family can't even protect the aboveboard achievements of our clansmen, what face will we have in the world?

As a last resort, when the situation is stable, the patriarchs and elders participating in the discussion will go to the ancestral hall for a long time to make up for their heart and virtue, and an appropriate part of the clan's public finances should be taken out to make up for their wealth with the damaged clansmen. ! "

As soon as these words came out, even Grandpa Gong, who was hesitant about whether his eldest brother was suitable for such a reputation, nodded his head, and the few who had been moved before bowed their heads in shame. The little brother who got the original body is so big and cheap.

Such a family is no worse than the old men and aunts in our own family!

In addition to being moved, Gong Twelve was also shocked:

It seems that the days to come will be difficult!

#族人is too good to be heartbroken, my uncle is too embarrassed to enjoy it with peace of mind, is it swollen? #

←← What's more terrible is that even though the future is not good, Gong Twelve still has no intention of waiting online to find out. This is the real big problem!

It's a pity that Gong Twelve didn't realize this.

What Gong Qiming and others discussed was only:

"Since you want to keep Xiao Twelve's achievements, then the signature..."

Can't be still Xiao Twelve, right?

Everyone looked at Grandpa Gong in unison, and Grandpa Gong laughed dryly: "Brother Twelve didn't get a name, isn't that known to everyone?"

The Gong family can be regarded as a family that values ​​​​brothers very much, even brothers will be included in the genealogy.

But how should I put it, it is Xiao Shuanzi, he is the only boy under Gong Daichuan, the same as Xiao Shuanzi, Xiao Shuanzi, even if he enters school in the next year, he may not be included in the genealogy, and he will probably be given a scientific name first It is said that the name was only taken with Zi during the coronation ceremony, and it is also very likely——

Moreover, it is not necessarily recorded in the genealogy, and it may only be recorded in the ancestral hall once every three to five years!

The elder brother of the Gong family is usually recorded when he is a child, or at the latest when he gets married before going to the ancestral hall to pay his respects, which can be regarded as extremely important.

The only problem is that Gong Twelve and Ji are still several years away, but the "San Zi Jing", "The Picture of Exterminating Locusts", etc., will be widely known in the world as soon as one or two months, and at least three or five months later. known.

Aunt Gong is a bad namer. It took a lot of effort to name Gong Daiyue back then. He discussed it with his husband for a long time. Every time, Grandpa Gong thought "this name is good", and he overturned his thinking again. ==

Now that I want to name Gong Twelve, it seems that I have to name it immediately...

Qiu Huhu didn't dare to come out to wreak havoc, but Grandpa Gong forced his brow to sweat.

Gong Qixie and his brothers have known about his problem for years, so they couldn't stop laughing.

But here is the name of the grandson, even he, the uncle, can't speak casually, and Gong Twelve's status is very special, Gong Qiming and they all want to call him "little grandfather" Naturally, she would not open her mouth casually, and only pointed out a little:

"Although buddies don't follow the kids' seniority, Xiao Twelve is different. Even if you use the word 'learn', you don't have to be reluctant..."

Grandpa Gong gave the eldest brother a grateful look, but he was still troubled: "Gong Xue, Gong Xue, what is Gong Xue good for?"

Even if you only need to think of one word, it is still a big problem for Grandpa Gong!

After wandering around in the same place for several times, people's eyes were dazzled, he still couldn't choose the last word, Gong Luoying got impatient, and simply slapped the table: "Just call it Gong Xue!"

Palace [-] ==: You are the palace blood, your whole family is palace blood!

He didn't want to use his original name here, but he always felt that after he gradually regarded Shuanzi's father and others as real family members, and the people in this clan were also regarded as serious relatives, he would let people call him the original name. The name may make me extra anxious, or it may smooth out my obsession and enthusiasm for returning home after getting used to the anxiety, but since Mr. System has taken the rare and generous reassurance pill, I don't have so many worries.

Coupled with the fatal palace blood pouring down on his head, Gong Twelve didn't dare to look badly at Grandpa Gong turning around, so he hurriedly said:

"What can I learn or not? If I am extraordinary, why do I need to be equal to the boys to show it?

I am me, I am Gong Guiqing! "

Gong Luoying's turbid eyes suddenly lit up, and Gong Qiming also stroked his palm:

"Guiqing, Guiqing, my palace family will eventually return to the ranks of Shilu Gongqing, and will even go farther and farther than the so-called aristocratic family name...

Sure enough, a good name! "

Although Grandpa Gong was a little disappointed that he couldn't name his grandson, but he was less troubled and felt that the name really meant something good, so he followed suit:

"It's a good name!"

Miyazaki thought a little further——

When the Taizu of this dynasty took the lead in initiating this "imperial examination" system, he once said:

"The prestige of virtue is enough to be regarded as filial and honest, so I will naturally accept it.

However, there is no shortage of virtuous and incompetent people in this world. There are also many madmen who manipulated the matter of filial piety and integrity at will by the local generals, and there are even many people who try to gain fame for the word filial piety.

Now that I have instituted the imperial examinations and created a rank for people in the world to be promoted based on their talents, it is not a complete rejection of filial piety, but it means that all knowledgeable people in the world can have a way to be loyal to the country and make a living for the people. "

These words were originally intended to alleviate the contradiction between the imperial examination for scholars and the selection of Xiaolian, but there is a word in it, which is very interesting.

Taizu said that those who can take the imperial examination are not the men of the world, but the knowledgeable people in the world.

Although I haven't heard of any brother who was promoted through the imperial examination and later became a public minister, when Taizu announced the imperial decree to the world, he also made it clear that he left a way for his brothers.

Although this road may not be Taizu's original intention, it may just be a momentary clerical error of the person who intended Taizu's words as an announcement, but anyway, Taizu's hadith comes first, and from now on...

Gong Qiexi squinted:

"This is Gui Qing Gui Qing, it must be the palace family Guiqing, but it may not be just my palace family who was born in the family and Lu Gongqing!"

Brother can hold up half the sky.

Gong Qiexi recalled all the rare things about these twelve elder brothers, and couldn't help but feel "could it be God's will".

This is completely just a feeling misled by Gong Twelve. Gong Qixi persuaded Gong Qiming and others to let the Gong clan accept the olive branch thrown by the Chu family and support the dynasty all the way. It is also the first time in history. This is not the only brother emperor, but by accident, he really became a transcendent surname that no gentry of a thousand-year-old family can match, but it is all a later story.

Just talking about the present, Gong Twelve finally used the name of returning to the palace to return to the Qing, and under the name of the guest under the bridge, and signed it on the "Three Character Classics", "The Illustrated Record of Mie Locusts", although the "Illustrated Records of Mie Locusts" is temporarily I haven't had an interview, but the "Three Character Classic" has been sung all over the north and south of the river and on both sides of the river within half a month. Even the emperor laughed and praised:

"If I had this book back then, I'm afraid my interest in reading would be even higher."

The name of Guiqing in the guest palace under the bridge was heard all over the nobles and nobles, and the paper and books were cheap, and there were many folks who were enlightened by it, and it was sung all over the world. In just one or two months, unless the news is extremely closed , There is no one who does not know the name of Guiqing.

☆, goodbye

Chu Zheng also found Xiaowang Village by following the three characters of guest under the bridge.

Although the people he is looking for on this trip are extremely important, since their Chu family followed the Taizu to establish this dynasty, no matter how the world changes and the population declines, they have always insisted that as long as there is a little clue, they will search one by one. It is not an exaggeration to think that the Chu family has been thinking like crazy for decades,

However, after many years of failure, Chu Zheng came to visit the Shuangkou Bridge in person this time, but it was only because he had other business, and happened to pass through this possible point that had not been investigated, so he went there in person.

Not much hope actually.

It's not that he is unfilial and doesn't take the wishes of several generations of the Chu family to heart. It's that the family retired under the deployment of "the first general of the Great Jin (former dynasty)", and the world of Kyushu is full of confusion. .

On that day, the last three emperors of the Jin Dynasty ordered the whole country to search for it, but it was still impossible to find it;

The Taizu of this dynasty also searched for it once, but in the end he just ended up sighing "The famous general is only because of the Mingjun, but now the Lu family will not come out, it is obviously because of my shortcomings, so I can't force it"——

Regardless of whether it was because the first two emperors before the Jin Dynasty were looking for them, people all over the world thought they were looking for them to take revenge and vent their anger. Therefore, even if they have a little conscience, they may not be very hard to find people;

Later, the third emperor, who was the last emperor of the Jin Dynasty, might have tried his best to find someone. At that time, the world was already in chaos, and government orders were difficult to pass. The search for someone was also delayed. To the Great Jin Kingdom will perish;

However, during the six or seven years that the Taizu of this dynasty devoted all his efforts to searching for it, because the world was initially determined and the manpower was not enough, it was inevitable that he missed it...

But even for various reasons, he deserves the reputation of being unobtainable after pouring all the power of the whole country several times. It can also be seen that the number one general of the Jin Dynasty not only made great achievements in defending the border city, but also had great concealment skills.

Even though the Chu family is particularly powerful in this dynasty, they dare not say that they are more capable than those emperors.

It's normal not to find it.

Chu Zheng found the Shuangkou Bridge.And more than a hundred years ago, the Tong family from Tongjiagouzi, who moved here and built the bridge for the first time, and the three families of Zhu, Xuan and Ke who moved here in the next 20 years and took turns to maintain the Shuangkou Bridge, found that the four surnames Although they are more knowledgeable than ordinary villagers, they seem to have little to do with the events of more than a hundred years ago.

Furthermore, this piece of land was originally a fiefdom before enthronement. It is not uncommon for the people to respond to this to open up the wisdom of the people and to obtain scholars through the imperial examination.

After confirming this point, although Chu Zheng was somewhat disappointed, he felt that it was expected——

I've been so disappointed all these years.

——It’s just that I didn’t rush to get up and go back to Beijing, and it’s just because I saw the tragedy caused by the water grabbing in Shangxi Village and Xiaxi Village when I visited Shuangkou Bridge, and I heard the joke of Chengjia Village:

A child student in the Cheng family, um, not anymore now, it should be said that he was a former child student. Due to the drought two months ago, and I am afraid that he will not be able to pass the assessment this year. They were all deprived of it, and they made a fuss about the so-called "righteousness" of sacrificing their sons to heaven, but in fact they had to deal with Yue's family for the sake of a village and a family's survival. Husband Yijue's son branched off from the clan, and he himself became a well-known joke...

Such strange talks made Chu Zheng wonder on the one hand, and on the other hand, he thought about the method of preventing and controlling droughts and floods, and the matter of nurturing the people's morals after enlightening the wisdom of the people, so he stayed for another month.

In this young month, a big surprise was reserved, and his marriage in this life was also reserved.

But at the beginning of November, Chu Zheng understood almost everything he wanted to know, and when he was about to rush back to Beijing to participate in the Winter Solstice Festival, the "Three Character Classic" written by the guest under the bridge passed along with the Gong family paper. Bookstores all over the country distributed it.

Yong'an Town is actually not faster than other places, but when Chu Zheng walked to the neighboring county and entered the city to rest for supplies, he was blocked by the crowd of people outside a book store, and was curious why the Subo was cut into such small pieces. And how to make those many people willing to rush to buy, so that the entourage bought a copy
