Chapter 3 Zi meets Nanzi
He Xi silently wrote down this incident in her heart. I thought to myself: "We need to prepare for this in advance."
When Liu Song saw that He Xi had listened, he thought to himself: "You can teach me a child." He had seen many sons of distinguished nobles become officials, and those who could listen to his words would achieve something in the future. Even if you lack ability, you can still get a high-ranking position with a few capable subordinates. At his age, he doesn't care about anything anymore. But his disciples and heirs all still needed support, so he even wanted to give He Xi some guidance and said, "Let's do this. I'll take you to see the Imperial College. By the way, let's meet for a wine ceremony."
He Xi said: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
In fact, in He Xi's opinion, although the Imperial College was newly built, it was not as good as the university campus he had seen in later generations. But it's too different.
Liu Song was older, so the two of them didn't walk fast. Liu Song pointed out the names of these buildings to He Xi as they walked. He Xi did see some students coming and going in a hurry. He can be called a diligent and studious person. However, he was immediately startled by a scream.
He Xi said: "This is it?"
"I don't know how to whip such an unlucky person." Liu Song frowned slightly, and then He Xi explained: "Before Song Ne, the academic style of the Imperial College was loose and caused a lot of troubles. The emperor was very dissatisfied. After Song Ne took office, the academic style changed When it gets tight, students often come here for punishment because they have violated prison rules."
"This is the prison's punishment hall."
He Xi looked up at the plaque and said, "Can I go in and have a look?"
"Of course." Liu Song said: "Since you are already the director of the Imperial College, there is nothing you can't see here. Just pay attention to propriety."
He Xi glanced at Liu Song and understood the old man's transparency. He also knew that since he was new here, there were some things he shouldn't interfere with. He said: "I just took a look, nothing else."
Liu Song said nothing more.
He took Liu Song into the Punishment Hall.
As soon as he entered the Punishment Hall, He Xi smelled the smell of blood. But he saw an extremely embarrassed young man being pressed on a mahogany stool and had been whipped several times. The back was bloody. It instantly reminded He Xi of the pain of being scolded with a cane.
Liu Song turned a blind eye because it was too ordinary. Then he said to He Xi: "This is the Scholar Song of the Imperial Academy."
He Xi saluted and said, "I've met Shangguan."
Song Ne said: "Since His Majesty has appointed Mr. He as the director of the Imperial College, please do not let Mr. He down."
He Xi said, "That's natural."
Liu Song said: "This is Bei Qiong, the Imperial Academy's Prime Minister."
Bei Jincheng was also in his fifties. When he saw He Xi, he slightly bowed his hands and said, "I have met Mr. He."
He Xi also saluted and said, "I have met Mr. Bei." He Xi then asked, "What happened?"
Song Ne said: "It's just a routine matter." Song Ne looked at Liu Song. Liu Song had a smile on his face, but gave Song Ne a helpless expression. Song Ne immediately knew that He Xi had come for something. Song Ne was not afraid at all, he felt that he only had to uphold the right path. It doesn't matter.
Although He Xi has a holy favor, doesn't Song Ne have one?
Song Ne changed the academic style of the Imperial College and was also a figure in the emperor's heart. He has dealt with many relatives of the emperor, and it doesn't matter if there is one more or less prince-in-law.
It's just that Song Ne can do nothing. But not Bejoon.
From the official position, his career was higher than that of the Prime Minister. From the background, He Xi had a solid background, and anyone in the Imperial College knew it.
Bei Qiong quickly explained: "This Guangye Hall Supervisor Yang Zhen slandered the saint and disobeyed the teacher. It's just a light punishment."
He Xi said: "Is this a light punishment?" This Yang Zhen had already passed out, and blood flowed from the redwood bench to the floor. Over time, this can be life-threatening. Can this be called a slight punishment?
Song Ne said: "As a prison student, I don't respect the saints. This is already a small punishment but a big warning."
He Xi said: "What did he do?"
Song Ne said: "Filthy words are difficult to say out loud."
He Xi looked at Beiqiong. Beiqiong coughed twice. One of them was the supervisor. Although he was no longer the supervisor, he was still his superior. He also had a huge backstage, which made him very embarrassed, but he still whispered: "He When Duzi met Nanzi, he said, something must have happened between Confucius and Nanzi. Otherwise, why would he defend himself so strongly? It's as if I have always said this to my wife when I have something to say outside."
He Xi's reaction was a little full. He thought for a moment before he remembered what the unlucky child meant.
This is a passage from the Analects of Confucius: When Zi saw Nan Zi, Zi Lu did not speak. Confucius pointed out: "Those who deny it will be disgusted by heaven! Heaven will be disgusted by it!"
Nanzi was a great beauty, the wife of Duke Linggong of Wei, who held great power in the Wei Kingdom, and was extremely beautiful. It was said that she had a very bad style and was favored by numerous men. But Nanzi admired Confucius' talent in governing the country. So Confucius went to see Nanzi. Zilu was unhappy. I think Confucius thought it would be a disgrace to associate with such people. So he said, "This man and I have nothing. If there really was something, then Heaven would be disgusted with it, and Heaven would be disgusted with it."
If you really think about this paragraph in three ways, it is okay.
After all, it’s hard to say what the scene was like when Confucius met Nanzi. But Confucius' speaking style is indeed a bit of a scumbag. It's like scumbag men lie to girls and say: "If I ever do such a thing, God will kill me."
In He Xi's opinion, it was just a joke.
He Xi said: "What are you going to do with this student?"
Bei Qiong's eyes wandered around, looking at He Xi for a while, then at Song Ne, and said: "It has been decided. Wear the shackles for three days to show the public."
He Xi frowned, although he knew that this was not the best time for him to speak. After all, he had just arrived and knew nothing and had no foundation. Doing things with Song Ne. Not a good thing.
First of all, this is Songne's home court.
Secondly, He Xi also needs fame.
Yes. Since he is in the officialdom, he cannot overthrow his immediate boss everywhere he goes. After this reputation spread. It will be detrimental to He Xi's future.
But he just couldn't bear it. I can't bear to lose a life like this. But because I said something wrong.
He Xi said, "Scholar Song, I think that for the students, we should punish them before they do, and treat the sick and save people. Yang Zhen has already done this. Thinking about it, he also knows that he is wrong. If he wears the shackles for three more days, it will kill him. .”
Song Ne said: "Otherwise, how could the saint's reputation be ruined by this junior? We won't take it seriously today. I don't know what else will be said in the future."
"Master Jijiu, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please spare me this time." This Yang Zhen seemed to wake up from his coma and heard He Xi pleading for him. He said quickly. It's just that he is very weak at the moment and his voice is very small. If you don't listen carefully, you won't be able to hear clearly.
Rationally, He Xi knew that he shouldn't say anything anymore.
Song Ne in front of him obviously had a problem with him. He really shouldn't have done this when he got out of the car. But he really couldn't do it when he saw a person's life being wasted so innocently. He was very aware of the medical environment in this era, and Yang Zhen's injuries could lead to death if not done right.
Not to mention, carrying dozens of kilograms of shackles. That is torture worse than death.
He Xi said: "Scholar Song, the sage is based on benevolence, and a benevolent person loves others. How can a scholar behave like this without compassion?"
Song Ne said: "I don't need He Siye to discipline me when I do things. I have always been frivolous in my studies, and it's because of this generation. If I don't punish them severely, how can I serve as a warning to others? He Siye is new here, so he should do things honestly."
He Xi sneered and said: "Well, I have a poem for Song Scholar to appreciate. How can there be many chickens in the neighbor's house? How can a beggar have two wives? There was an emperor of Zhou at that time, so why are they talking about Wei Qi?"
Before Song Ne finished listening, his face was already red, his eyes were about to burst, and he felt like he was choosing others to eat. He shouted fiercely: "He Xi, what do you mean?"
He Xi said calmly: "Scholar Song, I don't know what I think of this song, and what Master Jijiu wants to do with me?"
Song Ne was so angry that he was so angry that he said: "He Xi, I want to come to you, I will help you."
