"And the fourth and fifth articles, once they are publicized, my tyrant brother, you will really be invincible."
Seeing Abacus looking so solemn, Wang Zhi also put away his playful smile and asked a little more seriously: "How do you say this?"
"How to say it?"
Qin Jiuzhao said anxiously and angrily: "Even I can see that these two are wrong, how can you not see that you are smarter than me?"
In fact, Wang Zhi also had some understanding at this time, but he was open-minded by nature, so he didn't take it seriously even if he thought about it.
Qin Jiuzhao looked at his indifferent expression and said angrily: "You say that everyone is equal, but can slaves and prostitutes be equal to the officials of Zhao and Song Dynasties? You say that all walks of life are equal, so can lowly people from Shang Valley be equal to scholar-bureaucrats?"
"'The Great Harmony of the World' was originally an ideological doctrine put forward by the saints Confucius and Mencius. Look at those scholars who talk about Confucius and Mencius every day. Which one dares to mention the Great Harmony of the World?"
"Do you still need me to explain to you what 'the world is unified' means?"
"You just want to be the one who stands out, right?"
"In this dynasty, the imperial power and the scholar-bureaucrats jointly rule the world. Once your two academic ideas are publicized, it will be over. There are two pieces of sky above us. Which one can't kill you, Wang Erlang?"
"Then what should I do? I've said it all, can I take it back?" Wang Erlang still looked indifferent.
"able!"
Qin Jiuzhao, with a serious expression, lowered his head and came forward and said, "You will have a chance to take it back after fasting today."
"what chance?"
"After fasting today, your supporters of 'New Learning' will make an appointment with the Neishe students for a doctrinal debate on the backyard podium. When you show up, you can just admit defeat with a few perfunctory sentences."
"As long as you, the founder of the new school, bow your head and admit defeat and admit the shortcomings of the new school, the catastrophic disaster will naturally disappear, and the higher-ups will naturally not care about you, a student who has not reached the top."
"This discussion was prepared for you by Fatty Scholar and me behind the scenes. If you don't come today, we plan to go to your house to look for you in the afternoon."
"No matter what happens this time, you must bow your head and admit defeat, in order to preserve your usefulness."
"Abacus, thank you."
Wang Zhi looked at the young man beside him, who was as slender as a rod. He was very sincere at this moment.
Qin Jiuzhao smiled casually and said: "We are two brothers who have been together for the rest of our lives. We are talking about whether to thank you or not. We have seen each other outside."
After saying that, he warned sternly: "Do you remember? You must admit defeat!"
"Well...I will consider it." Wang Zhi nodded.
Qin Jiuzhao immediately became anxious when he heard this, "What are you thinking about? Is the moment of happiness more important than the lives of your biological family?"
"If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about your parents and family. It's not easy for them to raise you. Can you bear to see their white-haired people giving away black-haired people?"
"Okay, I understand. I'm sensible. We're almost at the fasting hall. Let's talk about it after fasting."
Wang Zhi pushed him, then suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, which academic professor is teaching today's class? Is it Liu Xuezheng?"
Qin Jiuzhao originally wanted to give some advice, but when he heard him talking about Liu Xuezheng, his attention was diverted. He couldn't help laughing and said: "You said Liu Xuezheng, of course it couldn't be him. He was there that day You were sent to the medical hall after you left the fasting hall, and you haven't come to fast for a week."
Wang Zhi said in surprise: "Ah, what's going on?"
Qin Jiuzhao rolled his eyes at him and said, "What else can happen? I'm so angry with you. The doctor said it was a sudden attack of anger that hurt the internal organs and needs to be recuperated at home."
"Am I so powerful?"
"It's so powerful. I was fine for half a quarter of an hour after you left. Later, you may have become more and more angry. You left again, and there was no place to vent. Then I fainted from anger. When I stepped forward to look at it, my face All turned purple."
"this……"
Wang Zhi didn't know what to say. He was also scolded at the time. He was so angry that he retorted. Later, when he thought about it, he actually felt that it was inappropriate. Liu Xuezheng was his teacher after all, and he didn't have any special occasions on weekdays. This was a good move. Well, he Wang Dadan has to bear the title of angry teacher again, but it doesn't matter if he has many debts or itchy lice.
"Let's bring some fruit and go see him together when the Imperial High School takes his bath during the Qingming Festival in the next two days." Wang Zhi said seriously and sincerely.
"..."
Qin Jiuzhao expressed that he was speechless. Liu Xuezheng was only injured, not dead. If you bring fruits to see her during the Qingming Festival, you are...what a dog!
Qin Jiuzhao couldn't help but shudder when he thought of that scene.
The two of them entered the dining hall together while they were talking. In addition to Qin Jiuzhao, Wang Zhi's best friends in Taixue also had two other friends, the scholar and the fat man in their mouth. They were known as the "four cheap guests of Taixue", oh no... they were the "four". swordsman'.
Why are they called the Four Musketeers? It's just because of the four of them, one is good at fighting, one is good at gambling, one is good at whoring, and the other is good at eating. Well, they are eating, drinking, whoring, gambling and fighting. They have all the five evils. It can be said that birds of a feather flock together and have the same smell. In short...a perfect match.
It's just that the other two were admitted to the inner dormitory one after another the year before and last. They were the only two who failed the exam repeatedly and still stayed in the outer dormitory.
As soon as the two of them entered the dining hall, they immediately exploded when the students saw them, and the students gathered around them.
"Wang Zhi, now that you're here, I know you won't allow the old school to continue to be rampant."
"Brother Wang, when you come this time, you will definitely lead my new learning to win debates, leave the Imperial Academy, and spread throughout the world."
"Brother Zhi, I admire you so much, and I will follow you, Brother Zhi, to carry on your unique teachings to the saints and create peace for all generations."
"Classmate Wang, there are still some things I don't understand about the new study. I will answer my questions after fasting."
"..."
Wang Zhi was surrounded by all the students and listened to the various greetings. He was also very happy and agreed with all his words. Abacus frowned deeply when he heard it.
Of course, there are also students who are watching with cold eyes. They still believe what the great Confucian scholars and politicians said. All things in the world are naturally in the Holy Word. If there are some things they don’t understand, it is because they are not good at their studies. Wait until they continue to study hard. After reading it intensively, you will naturally understand cause and effect and know all the truths in the world.
Not long after, when the time for fasting came, Xuezheng entered the dining hall. The chief of the restaurant took the lead and led all the students to salute. Xuezheng returned the salute and all the students took their seats.
Wang Zhi looked up and saw that it was another Xuezheng named Zhang in this house. As expected, Liu Xuezheng was not there.
Zhang Xuezheng naturally noticed that there was someone sitting in the usually empty seat. He knew Wang Zhi, but he was just stunned for a moment and looked away. He stopped looking. How is his colleague Liu Xuezheng now? He is a disciple. Erqing also knew what was going on. This was a thorny student. Although he didn't like it, he had better not take the initiative to provoke him, so as not to make him angry again.
Today's fasting lesson focused on the meaning of the classics. Whether intentionally or not, Zhang Xuezheng looked for some scriptures to study about respecting teachers and respecting principles. He also named some of the students and asked them what it means to respect teachers. What is righteousness?
It's a pity that he was destined to wink at the blind man. The student from Wang University sat down cross-legged and propped his chin on the case with one hand. He turned his head and closed his eyes. Those who didn't know thought he was thinking about something, but the student next door clearly heard what he said. There is a buzzing sound.
The time for fasting is always long, but the time for sleeping is indeed short. Time passed quietly amidst the sound of Wang Zhi's snoring. It was not until he was gently pushed that Wang Zhi woke up leisurely.
After seeing clearly that it was an abacus, Wang Zhicai asked foolishly, "Have you finished fasting?"
"What do you think?"
Qin Jiuzhao said angrily: "Hurry up, let's go find the scholar and the fat man. We are studying law this afternoon. You don't need to go to school. Let's go."
Legal studies is a part-time course, and it is also included in the public examination. However, it only takes five cases. As long as the answers comply with the law, it will be fine. Therefore, if you don't want to take the path of punishment in the future, you don't need to take it every day. It's enough to have a general understanding.
In this way, Wang Zhi was dragged into the Taixue dining hall by Qin Jiuzhao. The three of them had made an appointment to meet in the dining hall for lunch. After dinner, they would go to Wang's house to look for Wang Zhi together. Now that Wang Zhi is already here, it's not a surprise. Saved a lot of trouble.
After several generations of development in the Song Dynasty, Taixue now has three buildings: outer, inner and upper, with a total of more than 3,000 students. The dining hall at lunch time can be said to be full of white. It is necessary to find two students among so many students. It's not difficult.
But fortunately, there was no need for the two of them to search. When they entered the dining hall, they heard several familiar shouts before they even had a chance to look around.
"Aba, Abacus...this way."
There is no way, in this era when the height is generally over six feet, which is about one meter and sixty in later generations, Wang Zhi and Qin Jiuzhao, who are over seven feet and over eight feet tall, can be said to stand out from the crowd. There is no need to look for them at all, and they can be seen at a glance. The thin pillar is stuck there, making it difficult to find it.
Wang Zhi and the other two looked towards the sound and saw a thin scholar and an obviously bigger man next to them waving to them. Who else could it be if it wasn't the scholar and the fat man?
Wang Zhi and Wang Zhi waved in response, but did not go over immediately. Instead, they lined up to get their meals.
The food in the dining hall of the highest university in this dynasty is not bad, but it is not free. Taixue only gives students a certain food subsidy, and you still have to buy the food yourself.
After the two prepared the meal, they went straight to the table where the scholar and the fat man were sitting and sat down. The tray in front of Wang Zhi was filled with chicken, duck, fish, meat, and vegetables. Looking at the tray in front of the abacus... steamed buns, steamed buns , or steamed buns!
A student nearby saw this and couldn't help but wonder, you... don't need a tray at all, okay?
Qin Jiuzhao sat down, picked up a steamed bun from his own tray and put it on Wang Zhi's tray. He also brought two plates of good food from Wang Zhi's tray. It was something that a scholar couldn't do.
The three of them were not surprised and didn't say much. They knew that Abacus's father was an official in the court. Although his official position was not big, his family background was quite good. But Abacus... How should I put it? You want to say he is a bad person. He spends a lot of money on the gambling table without even frowning. If you want to call him grand, he feels bad even if he spends an extra penny on food.
