Chapter 616 Expose the hypocrites and determine the performance of agricultural affairs
Hearing Zhao Jinzhu's words, Liu Xing sighed secretly in his heart: Is this a thirteen-year-old girl? This mind can directly guess the master's really long-term plan.
It's amazing, it's really amazing, who said that there are more losers in the royal family, at least this little princess is a prodigy.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing couldn't help but secretly rejoice: It's okay, fortunately, this little girl likes my master, and she is also determined that even if her father and brother sit on the dragon chair again, they will swear to protect me instead of harming me.
Otherwise, just her mind as a goddess prodigy is here, and I can't allow her to continue to live like this, at least I should give her some medicine first and make her become a crazy child......
Thinking so in his heart, on the surface, Liu Xing did smile lightly and said to Zhao Jinzhu: "Is Tao Yuanming very powerful?" He picked chrysanthemums under the east fence and saw Nanshan leisurely, but he was still shouting not to bend his waist for five buckets of rice. That can only fool those who only read books and don't think about the other reason behind it. ”
After a slight pause in his voice, Liu Xing's face turned cold, and he continued: "If he hadn't been an official, Tao Yuanming wouldn't have been an official, where did he get the capital under the chrysanthemum fence, and he would have starved to death." If you become an official, you have to be a ** archway, shouting that you don't bend your waist for five buckets of rice, and you can only deceive those nerds who don't even have basic thinking skills. ”
After stopping again, Liu Xing's face became fierce: "The honest officials are valuable, but the clean officials are reflected in the honesty. As long as I am in charge for one day, I don't want the kind of guy who wants to be the first to be the archway in the court. The capable are up, the mediocre are down, the honest are up, and the trickster doesn't kill him, so he really doesn't bend his waist for five buckets of rice and starve him to death. ”
As soon as Liu Xing finished saying these words. Not only Zhao Jinzhu, but also the surrounding soldiers couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Tao Qian, Tao Yuanming, and Mr. Jingjie are a generation of celebrities in Chinese civilization. It is the true originator of idyll. His "high wind and bright festival" and his "neither humble nor arrogant" have been since the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It has long become a kind of soul worship in the depths of the minds of the Central Plains people.
But deep in Liu Xing's heart, he can't stand scrutiny at all. At least in terms of being a man, his character may not be really so "high-spirited".
Liu Xing will not easily belittle anyone, just like when he dealt with those two cases before, Liu Xing had a well-known principle in his heart.
That principle is based on facts, if you want to determine who is the murderer in a case, you need evidence, and if you want to confirm what kind of person a person is, Liu Xing will always draw inferences from one case to determine whether that person is worthy of his true respect or even worship him, and will not blindly say what people say and go with the flow.
It is precisely because of this principle. Once upon a time, when Hu Anguo told Tao Yuanming's story in Songshan Academy, Liu Xing stood up and asked Hu Anguo a few questions on the spot.
Those few questions, the first question Liu Xing asked Professor Hu at that time was whether Tao Yuanming was born in the imperial examination?
Hu Anguo replied: "No, but from a family of eunuchs and scholars." ”
Liu Xing said with a smile: "Scholarly family, how did he start his career as a wanderer?" ”
Hu Anguo replied: "It is equivalent to sealing grace in the shade, and starting the life of a wandering eunuch." ”
Liu Xing still smiled and asked again: "You Guan, are you an official?" ”
Hu Anguo replied: "Naturally, he is an official. ”
When he got such an answer, Liu Xing's smile became a little disdainful: "Since he has been an official, how many years has he been there?" Needless to say, I remember being a variety of officials for 30 years, starting at the age of 20. Ate the imperial court for thirty years. Just because his ambitions were too high to be degraded by others, he stood up and shouted something, 'Don't bend your waist for five buckets of rice'. Isn't it a hypocrite? ”
When Hu Anguo heard that, he was so angry that he wanted to kick Liu Xing out of the school on the spot.
But without waiting for him to rush, Liu Xing continued: "It's a person who knows that if you want to farm land, you must first have money to buy land when you don't want to be an official, right?" When Tao Qian went to pick chrysanthemums, his chrysanthemum garden was not earned by him when he was an official, and it must have been left to him by his ancestor as an official. ”
When he was picked up by several seniors and pulled out of the school, Liu Xing was still saying: "He shouted not to bend his waist for five buckets of rice, isn't he still gnawing on the inheritance that his ancestors bought with Yulu, or is he using the Yulu he took from the court to buy the land so that he can see the idyllic life of Nanshan leisurely?" ”
"Everything he has is given by the court, and he is still flaunting his seclusion and cleverness there, is it deceiving the world? As a professor, you asked me to take a hypocrite as an example. Are you teaching me to learn well, or are you teaching me to learn to be a hypocrite who fails......" When Liu Xinghua came here, he had been picked up by several seniors and thrown directly out of the school.
Liu Xing remembered these past events himself, but he never regretted them. Because it was precisely after questioning the teacher in public that Hu Anguo not only did not settle accounts after the autumn, but stared at himself and bitten.
On the contrary, he gained a different kind of respect from a Confucian leader, who considered himself to be a "young and old-fashioned, well-thought-go, and a strange genius who drew inferences from the sidelines." ”
There is a folk saying, called "eight years old to see eighty". Liu Xing brought these thoughts from his predecessors, and naturally when he heard the allusion of "five buckets of rice bending his waist", he burst out with such a remark that can be called "shocking".
The words are not shocking and endless, but Liu Xing doesn't just want words to be amazing, because he is not a grandstanding clown.
In the midst of everyone's consternation, Liu Xing looked at the captain of the pro-soldier again and said, "Let me think more about the matter of food and agriculture, and then make new rules and supplements." But at the same time as this set of decrees, you asked Lei Zhen to issue another decree on my behalf. ”
Speaking half of the sentence, although he lowered his head to think, Liu Xing's face was extremely firm: "From now on, when the autumn harvest and spring ploughing, all the big officials and officials below the year of the Mandate of Heaven, including myself, must go down to the fields to participate in labor for at least seven days. The performance of the people in the three examinations of the Ministry of Officials, the Counselor, and the Imperial History shall be included as the basic performance evaluation item. ”
"Ah, Taifu, do you want all the officials to go to the fields in the spring and autumn to participate in farming?" Lu Mingtao, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but shout and ask in surprise when he heard Liu Xing's order.
Looking at him coldly, Liu Xingsheng said coldly: "What's the matter, can't you?" If you don't have a home, not only is firewood and rice expensive, but if you don't go to the field, how can you know that farming is hard. I don't know the hardships of farming, how can I understand the true meaning of respecting farmers, protecting farmers, and benefiting farmers. I don't want Tao Yuanming to eat the people's food, but the hypocrite who scolds the people for being cheap is an official in the same dynasty as me, do you need to be so surprised? ”
"Brother Liu, isn't this a little paranoid!"
Without waiting for Lu Mingtao to speak, Zhao Jinzhu stared at Liu Xingdao with a pair of beautiful big eyes: "Many of the big officials and officials in the DPRK have never been to the fields in their lives, if you force them to do the work of farmers by decree, I am afraid that it will be difficult for some strong people." Aren't you afraid that those men will suffer for seven days, and punish the farmer who dragged him to suffer for seven months? ”
"Dare!" As soon as he heard Zhao Jinzhu's words, Liu Xing's eyes widened and he said with a fierce face: "Whoever wants to play revenge with the people under the rule of the master, the master will let him be crushed first." (To be continued.) )
