Chapter 144: Three Realms of Reading

Lin Ruhai was rescued, and he has already departed from the original world. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

He was begging for his remains again. Emperor Long'an would definitely arrange for someone to take over the vacancy of the Salt Patrol Censor, just in case.

Although this official vacancy is only of the third rank, in terms of importance, it is by no means lower than that of a feudal official. How can it be allowed to remain vacant for a long time?

Since Emperor Long'an sent people, it would be impossible to change the order overnight, even if Lin Ruhai was accidentally rescued.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai will definitely leave Yangzhou.

With his extraordinary achievements of more than ten years, it would be too inhumane to let him experience other places.

Moreover, Lin Ruhai was different from the Ban Shan Gong. The Ban Shan Gong obviously wanted to be the chief auxiliary of the military aircraft, so he spent twenty-eight years in the state capital to gather the hope of the world.

Lin Ruhai could not be the first assistant because he had been sitting in Yangzhou as a loyal minister of the emperor, keeping an eye on the important salt tax areas of Lianghuai and Huaihe Rivers.

After all, the Xunyan Censor is only a third-grade scholar, and there is still some distance between him and a first-grade bachelor.

Therefore, there is no need to continue to endure hardships outside, just go back to Beijing and endure it slowly.

Furthermore, when Lin Ruhai took office, he lost his legitimate son first and then his wife. This time, he almost got involved...

If he were allowed to serve as an official in other provinces, the Tian family would be called a poor man, which was obviously not possible.

In this case, when Lin Ruhai recovers from his illness, he will definitely return to Beijing and serve as a senior official in Yizi!

Jia Qiang's eyes fell on Lin Daiyu's face. This girl, who was full of grace and beauty, had a father. She would definitely not end up crying and dying again...

"Dad, you...you really want to go to Beijing to become an official?"

Daiyu asked, her eyes red with excitement.

Even if the relationship in her heart with her father is no longer as close as it was in the early years, how can the blood relationship be completely severed?

If Lin Ruhai can really come to Beijing, it will be a great blessing for her.

Lin Ruhai glanced at her lovingly and said softly: "That's most likely the case. I'm just a minister, so I'll wait for the court's decree first."

Daiyu was in a good mood when she heard the voice. She thought about the hero of this matter, rolled her eyes slightly, pursed her lips and smiled: "Dad, Brother Qiang is eager to learn, but he has never met a famous teacher. Although my daughter has given him some guidance, it's just that he is stupid.

It’s so bad that I can’t learn the essence. So when my father is healthy and strong, I can let him see what Tanhua Lang’s articles are!”

When Lin Ruhai heard this, he looked at his daughter and then at Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiang smiled ashamedly and said: "No matter how arrogant I am, I dare not use my aunt's father-in-law's beautiful article to enlighten me. I just hope that I can ask my uncle's father-in-law for advice on how to solve the problem and how to solve the problem."

When Daiyu heard this, she smiled like a blooming orchid. She pursed her lips and joked: "You said you are not arrogant and dare not use my father's article to enlighten you. You asked my father to teach you how to break the topic. I'll accept it.

Don’t you want to worship my father as your teacher?”

Lin Ruhai came to the rescue for the embarrassed Jia Qiang and said: "Let's go to my study first and read the articles that Yucun left when he initiated your aunt. If your aunt were a man, even if she hadn't won the exam now, she would still be close.

, breaking down the topic and taking up the topic, they are all quite spiritual. Yucun’s comments on her article are also so precious that I couldn’t bear to throw them away after reading them. I have kept them. If you think about it carefully, you will definitely gain something. Wait and see

After that, you can read some of the articles I wrote in my spare time, which may also be helpful. Giving you advice too early may easily make you aim too high, which may not be a good thing."

Daiyu was worried that Jia Qiang would misunderstand Lin Ruhai's unwillingness to teach him, but Jia Qiang bowed her head and thanked her sincerely: "It's a blessing for her that her great-uncle has taken such trouble."

When the Lin family father and daughter saw this, they all smiled.

The rarest thing in this world is to meet someone who understands.



"I never thought that my great-uncle would be such a person..."

After coming out of Zhonglin Hall and under the corridor of Chaoshou, Jia Qiang said softly.

The sensitive and suspicious Daiyu immediately raised her eyebrows and asked in a bad tone: "What kind of person is my father?"

Jia Qiang had no choice but to glance at the girl and said softly: "I originally thought that she would be the same person as the second master of Xifu. But now it seems that my great-uncle is the one who is truly thorough in reading. He is always in the ceremony.

, but do not stick to the words of saints. His high realm and elegant demeanor are far beyond the reach of ordinary corrupt scholars."

Although Daiyu heard some of Jia Qiang's disdain for Jia Zheng, she couldn't help but curl up her lips when she heard him praise her father so much, and said angrily: "You are so young that you can flatter others! You study hard and study hard.

Being motivated is better than anything else. Besides, don’t say anything to me without speaking in front of my father..."

It seems that this elder's style can't be let go, but no matter how you look at it, it's a bit arrogant...

Jia Qiang doesn't care either. It might be more interesting and comfortable to get along with him this way.

He chuckled and said: "I once heard someone say that there are three realms of study and three realms of life. I thought that the third realm was only attainable by a true scholar, but I didn't expect that my great-uncle was such a person."

This is not just flattering, just look at the attitude of the so-called elders of the Jia family in front of him, and you will know how difficult it is for Lin Ruhai to be so approachable.

The Jia family often boasts that although they have made great achievements, they pass down the family with poetry and etiquette, and they emphasize benevolence and filial piety.

However, let alone how Jia Zhen treated Jia Rong, and how Jia She treated Jia Lian, even Jia Zheng, a rare "upright person" among the Jia clan, must abide by the rules of raising his children strictly when treating Baoyu.

In fact, not only the Jia family, but most families in the world treat their younger generations in this way to maintain the dignity and status of filial piety.

Their so-called benevolence and filial piety are just trying to emphasize this rule and then rely on it to dominate and bring blessings.

There are really very few people who can treat juniors like Lin Ruhai!

Doesn’t he take etiquette, filial piety, and principles seriously?

No, obviously not!

Just thinking about why he sent the orphan girl to the capital in the first place, I know that in his heart, Tsuna Chang is more important than the family relationship between father and daughter.

Perhaps, he was once a first-rate figure in Jia Zheng.

But today, Lin Ruhai is obviously no longer trapped by etiquette, is no longer rigid and rigid, and is living a more transparent life.

Jia Qiang deeply admires this state of mind.

If Jia Zheng could do this, the Jia family would not end up in a pure white land.

However, although Daiyu was smart and graceful, she could not think of this at the moment. She just felt that Jia Qiang simply had no bottom line...

She asked teasingly: "I would like to hear what are the three realms of studying and what are the three realms of being a human being. After listening to it, I can tell my father. He will be happy after hearing it, and maybe he will teach you well."

This little girl's mouth is really like a knife.

Jia Qiang did not look at her, but said softly: "The so-called realm of reading is divided into three levels: the first level, last night the west wind withered the green trees, I went up to the tall building alone, and looked at the end of the world. In this state, I can first read the words and memorize them.

, and you can achieve success. Now, I have probably just stepped onto the threshold of this realm. I have first encountered the vastness of the sea of ​​learning, but I am still a little at a loss."

Hearing what he said was serious, Daiyu also "calmed down", straightened her face and continued to listen to what he said for the second time...

"The second stage is when the clothes become wider and wider, but you don't regret it anymore, and you feel haggard because of the beauty. In this stage, because you have read thousands of books, you start to think in your heart and try to figure out the truth in it. This is very important."

Daiyu nodded in approval and said: "Is this what the Analects of Confucius says: Learning without thinking is wasteful?"

Jia Qiang nodded and said: "That's right. I've heard people say that most of the world's brightest people can't achieve this level if they study hard for a lifetime and never get a job title. However, most of the scholars in the world can read it.

To this realm, most of them stop at this realm. This realm is very wide. The deeper you think, the deeper the realm is. Although it is the same realm, it is actually divided into countless small realms. But no matter how deep you read, if you

If you don't reach the third level, you can only be trapped by the words of sages, act according to dogma, and be rigid and ruthless."

Daiyu paused, looked at Jia Qiang with clear starry eyes, and asked softly: "Then, what is the third realm?"

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "The third level is 'looking for him thousands of times in the crowd, but suddenly looking back, he is in the dim light'. When you reach this level, you have returned to nature. It is what is said in "The Great Learning"

To be clear and virtuous is to stop at perfection. This is what Laozi said: 'The earth follows heaven, heaven follows Tao, and Tao follows nature'. When you reach this state, you can finally unite your knowledge and action, and explain the profound things in simple terms..."

"Is this what Confucius said: 'When you are seventy, you should follow your heart's desires and never go beyond the rules'?"

Daiyu's starry eyes were bright, she looked at Jia Qiang and said.

Jia Qiang always hit the bullseye when she heard what she said. She had a tacit understanding and nodded comfortably in her heart: "That's it. At this level, the etiquette and rules of the world are actually in the heart. It is a true understanding, instead of just superficially following what others say."

Obey and change the words of the saints as your own words. I think my aunt and uncle seem to be in this state."

Daiyu looked at him for a while, then said with a strange expression: "Just because daddy is so kind to you, is he willing to teach you?"

Although she gradually realized in her heart that Lin Ruhai was different from before, she could not admit that she had received advice in front of the "juniors".

Jia Qiang ignored him. He finally figured out that although the hibiscus had not yet bloomed, Aunt Lin, who was already charming and beautiful, was not actually a fairy woman who did not eat the fireworks of the world, but had a narrow and mischievous heart.

The interesting girl with an earthly heart, maybe she already gave him a nickname behind his back...

Seeing that he ignored him, Daiyu wrinkled her little nose and snorted boredly, and asked again: "What about the three realms of being a human being?"

Jia Qiang stood with her hands behind her hands, looking at the green bamboos under the verandah, and said softly: "The state of being a human being is similar to studying, but it is much more difficult than learning..."



Zhonglin Hall, in the ear room.

After Jia Qiang and Daiyu left, a beautiful young woman in white clothes and skirt entered from the back door.

Her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, full of the soft beauty of the Jiangnan water town.

She stepped forward and covered Lin Ruhai with the thin quilt, sat down next to the bed, and said softly: "Master, this junior of the Jia family is a talented person? Master, have you decided how to repay his kindness?"

Lin Ruhai's face was pale, but he frowned. After pondering for a while, Fang slowly said: "This child is much more complicated than I expected. Usually, for someone of his age, even if he is a noble son, he grows up in intrigues.

Among them, there may be a clever mind to harm others, but it is difficult for him to have such thoughts as this child. Besides, didn't you say before that he is a polite person?"

This woman was Lin Ruhai's concubine. Hearing this, she smiled and said, "You saw me playing the harp over there through the bamboo forest at night, and you knew how to stay away from me from a distance. Naturally, you deserve the word 'knowing etiquette', which is a good thing."

Lin Ruhai said "Yeah" and said: "He is a good boy... I will think about it again and I won't let him suffer."
