Forty-eight miles around the city wall of Jingshi, set up nine gates, two city gates in the north, Desheng Gate in the west, Anding Gate in the east, the highest national institution of learning in the Ming Dynasty and the Confucian Temple dedicated to the Holy Ancestor, is located in the east of Desheng Gate a stone's throw away, and the north city wall of Jingshi is only separated by an alley.

Since ancient times, the east is on the left and the west is on the right (just the opposite of the map of later generations), according to the ritual system of the left temple and the right learning, the Guozijian is in the west, and the Confucian Temple is in the east.

Confucianism flourished in the Ming Dynasty, almost every city has a Confucian Temple, of course, on the scale of Qufu, Shandong, of course, the first to recommend Shandong, but the political status of the lofty, that is the Beijing Division, after all, the monarchs and ministers of the Beijing Division are very busy, there is not much time to go all the way to Qufu to worship Kong, can only express the admiration for the holy master nearby.

On this day, there were many people outside the Confucian Temple, there were showmen with square scarves and shirts, and people with gauze hats and round necks, all of them were full of sweat.

The Guozijian who was close to the Confucian Temple was even more out of the nest, no matter what the teacher, doctor, Xuezheng, and the students, regardless of the tribute and shade, all ran out and stood on the steps and stretched their necks to look ahead.

The imperial court issued a decree, and today it will be enshrined in the Confucian Temple by Mr. Wang Shouren, Mr. Yangming, which means that Yangming Xinxue has been recognized by the imperial court, and will be the same Confucian path as Cheng Zhu Lixue.

There is an old saying that literati are inferior to each other, and there are many people who read and have many verbal disputes, and there are a lot of disciples of mind and science here.

The scholars of the Ming Dynasty treated academic thoughts, of course, they would not be as incompatible as the two religions of Wusizang, Yellow and White, and in fact, many scholars were both Cheng Zhu Lixue and Lu Wang Xinxue, and they were eclectic and their own understanding.

But there is always a preference between psychology and science, which lays the foundation for the controversy, and as long as there are many people, it is those with extreme attitudes who have the loudest voice and can attract the most attention, plus most of the scholars are young and strong-blooded, this quarrel cannot end, roll up their sleeves and wave their fists. There are several places where there is pushing and shoving.

Only a group of richly dressed prisoners on the steps, standing beside them, pointing and pointing as if watching a play, giggling and laughing from time to time, they didn't seem to be interested in the study of mind, just watching the scholars quarrel and have fun.

The other prisoners of Guozijian also kept their distance from this group of people, because they were Yin Sheng. And it's Wu Yinsheng.

There are four kinds of supervisors, among which Gongsheng is a three-good student and a guaranteed student selected from Xiucai by Confucianism in Fuzhou County; The supervisor is a person who will take the test to stay in Beijing to study and prepare to continue to take the examination, which is equivalent to graduating from a bachelor's degree and studying for a second degree; The regular supervisor is a "school choice student" who donates money to come in; Yin Sheng is the second generation of officials who have been a big official and have been sheltered by Yin to study in the school.

The Ming officialdom is the most rooted in the Jinshi, and if the simple prison student qualification is not admitted to the Jinshi, there is actually not much future, so in comparison, the first three kinds of prisoners are all poor, short and ugly, but the shadow is protected by his father and ancestors, and he is really handsome and rich.

Yin Sheng is also divided into civil and military. The sons of the Wenchen family and the noble relatives of Wuxun are naturally different, and these Wu Yinsheng who see jokes have the status of prince and uncle in each family. After studying in prison, he went out to be an official position of three or four grades, and even won the title of super grade.

One of them said in a rough voice: "What are these file birds doing?" Whispering about something that the master doesn't understand, what kind of heart and desire, it's not as interesting as listening to a little song in Goolan Hutong, Sister Xianglan sings eighteen touches, and it's also 'slave heart and liver, what does Lang Jun want', haha! ”

All the scholars looked at this man angrily. He also puffed out a pair of strange eyes and glared back one by one, but that group of Wu Yinsheng was used to being naughty and mischievous, and he didn't stop his friends from talking nonsense, and they cheered and applauded.

It's making a fuss. From the west, there was the sound of a gong, and the soldiers and servants sounded the gong to open the way, and a large group of officials, some in sedan chairs and some on horses, came to this side.

In front of the Confucian Temple, the inscription reads, "Civil and military officials, military and civilians, etc. are stationed in the sedan chair and dismounted." Officials get off the sedan chair and get off the horse.

The first one was Zhao Jin, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, who wore a six-beam crown, a court dress, a brocade ribbon, and held the spiritual seat of the ancestor Wang Yangming, and walked slowly step by step, with a solemn expression.

followed by Shen Shixing, Yu Youding, and Xu Guo, the three cabinet ministers, their official positions are higher than Zhao Jin, but today's situation is obviously not calculated according to the level of official positions, Zhao Jin, as Wang Yangming's closed disciple, is more qualified than them to hold the spirit in front.

Shen Shixing and others are mainly based on psychology, but they are in the position of auxiliary ministers, and their academic status is transcendent, and they generally do not intervene in the dispute between science and psychology, but now the situation is different, Shen Shixing and Xu Guo have fallen out with the old party Qingliu in the matter of Zhang Siwei, and they are happy to use the heart to suppress the old party Qingliu based on science.

Further back, there are Song Yingchang, Zhou Xidan, Chen Hejiao and other Xinxue disciples, with splendid official robes and crowns.

The science disciples of the court resolutely refused to appear on such occasions, such as Yu Maoxue, Wu Zhongxing, Zhao Yongxian and others, so they changed into civilian clothes, took their families to mix in the large group of scholars, looked at Zhao Jin coldly, and let them wear court clothes to cheer the party, which was not to be thought of.

"Uncle Gu is really here!" Yu Mao learned that Yu had a big mouth, and he really opened his mouth wide.

It is indeed unexpected, the group of Xinxue disciples who worship Wang Yangming from the Confucian Temple, Gu Xiancheng and Gu Dajieyuan are also among them, which is a bit strange, after all, he is a staunch believer in science, and he used to have many articles against Xinxue disciples!

Wu Zhongxing and Zhao Yongxian sighed together: "Alas~~ Uncle, why is this difficult? ”

Not only that, but they also saw three old friends, Jiang Dongzhi, Yang Keli, and Li Zhi, who were also mixed in the crowd, but their expressions were not as calm as Gu Xiancheng's, and they showed resentment from time to time.

Gu Xiancheng saw Yu Maoxue and the others, and also noticed the demeanor of Jiang Dongzhi around him, he shook his head with a wry smile: The current situation, I can only try my best to show Zhao Jin, there is no other way, as long as the thing that worries him the most will not become a reality...... Who knows what to be afraid of, Zhao Jin has not yet reached the door of the Confucian Temple, a carriage parked on the side of the street lifted the curtain, Xu Wenchang walked out with a smile, and Zhao Jin made eye contact, and then stood in the queue of Xinxue disciples.

Gu Xiancheng's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

Jiang Dongzhi pointed at Xu Wenchang and said in a trembling voice: "You, you, you ......"

Xu Wenchang glanced at him: "The old man studied under Wang Longxi, and the authentic heart is passed on!" ”

No way! Jiang Dongzhi, Yang Keli, and Li Zhi scolded and were fooled at the same time, Old Man Xu was half-hearted and acted absurdly, even in the Hu Zongxian, Wu Dui and Qin Lin shogunates, the style of doing things was close to vertical and horizontal, so that everyone almost forgot that this guy is Wang Longxi's disciple, Wang Yangming's authentic disciple!

Then the answer is all clear, the Qingliu Old Party completely fell into the trap of Qin Lin and Xu Wenchang, Zhao Jin has long had a tacit understanding with Qin Lin, but it is ridiculous that Gu Xiancheng and Jiang Dongzhi are still stupid to think that they can win Zhao Jin in the middle of winter, and they stand in the queue of Xinxue disciples!

Jiang Dongzhi, Yang Keli, and Li Zhi were so angry that they trembled all over, and they wanted to slap themselves twice, Xu Wenchang's actions were simply telling everyone to their faces: they were tricked.

Isn't it, Yu Maoxue, who was crowded in the crowd on the street, opened his mouth, Zhao Yongxian and Wu Zhongxing looked at each other, and the kind of eyes that came over made Jiang Dongzhi's brother embarrassed.

Gu Xiancheng was also depressed, boasting that he was superior, but he was always planted in Qin Lin's hands, and he had nothing to do at the moment, so he had to shout: "Zhao Dutang!" ”

Zhao Jin heard Gu Xiancheng's call, but he only showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and then he didn't look back, holding Mr. Yangming's spiritual throne and going straight to the Confucian Temple.

A gentleman can be bullied, Zhao Jin is indeed a down-to-earth and honest gentleman, he originally adhered to a fair position, strived to unite knowledge and action, and sought truth from facts, but Gu Xiancheng calculated him, forced him to choose a side in the court, and became the opposite party of Qin Lin, no matter how simple Zhao Jin was, how could he have no mustard in his heart? It's just that the shape is forbidden and can't have seizures.

After Xu Wenchang and Zhao Jin discussed, the old man Xu knew the reason for advancing and retreating, and only asked Zhao Jin to judge justice and act according to his heart in the future, and did not use Mr. Yangming's worship of Confucius Temple to blackmail him, but won Zhao Jin's favor.

said that he was impartial, in fact, Zhao Jin had already been on Qin Lin's side at the moment, as the saying goes, clay figures have three points of fire, Gu Xiancheng played with him, how could he not be hated?

Yang Keli and the others were in the queue of Xinxue disciples, and they really couldn't get out if they wanted to go out, so they had to go into the Confucian Temple to pay their respects.

Especially Xu Wenchang's evil smile, it's like getting them to play monkeys!

Gu Xiancheng could only force a smile, pretending not to care, but he was actually depressed. Until the end of the whole ceremony of worshipping Confucius Temple by Feng Wang Yangming, he and several friends had faces as black as coal.

Finally, after the ceremony was completed, these people were about to leave, but when they saw Qin Lin's python robe and jade belt coming from the horse, they dismounted with a deception leg, and smiled and waved towards the officials.

How did he get here? Gu Xiancheng had a plan in his mind and shouted, "Lord Qin, do you also come to worship the Confucian Temple?" ”

"That's right," Qin Lin nodded.

Gu Xiancheng sneered: "Hmph, if the overseer doesn't suppress speech, block the virtuous road, it's okay to indiscriminately arrest righteous people and gentlemen!" Recently, Dongchang has been out of the four battles to suppress my generation of Shilin gentlemen, you must know that Mr. Fanfushan was killed, Yin Jian is not far away! ”

He Xinyin called Fushan, Gu Xiancheng said this sentence, no matter the readers of the science of the mind have resonance, because the faction of the science of the heart is not like the two religions of Wusizang, the yellow and the white, at least everyone is from the Shilin, and the factory guard eagle dog urine is less than a pot, He Xinyin was killed because of Zang Zhang Juzheng, Qin Lin recently used some means to make the old party clear stream and want to die, which is easy to make people reminisce.

Qin Lin sighed continuously, Gu Xiancheng's ability to respond to emergencies is indeed good, but unfortunately this is also expected by Zhang Zixuan!

"Yes, this governor is about to talk to all the gentlemen about this," Qin Lin made another circle in all directions, and then said loudly: "When Mr. Fushan was killed, Yu Jiayue Jiangling said fairly, then 'I don't kill Boren, Boren died because of me', so this governor has gone to Jiangling, and several brothers-in-law will buy boats and go straight to Wuchang, and pay tribute when Mr. Fushan erects a monument." ”

What the? Gu Xiancheng's pupils narrowed suddenly: Qin thief actually played this hand, it was too much, too cunning!
