Chapter 68: Extreme (Medium)

After hearing the silent words, Mr. Chen still said indifferently: "Come on, I'll see if someone is writing for you."

Chen Si really wanted to tear this stinky mouth. He really wanted to point at this bullshit Mr. Qingxia's forehead and ask, would you indigestion if you keep something in your heart?

He had no choice but to think about it and gave up. He handed the stack of rice paper that emitted the ink fragrance to Chen Lian with both hands.

Mr. Chen took the stack of paper and looked through it expressionlessly at first, but when he saw the third one, his expression became serious. When he saw the fifth one, he couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. After reading the last one, he finally couldn't help but praise: "It's really a big deal to be able to see the integration of the mind and brush from ordinary neatness and taste the gradual changes!"

It took him a long time to come back from his intoxication, looked at the quiet handsome face, and sighed, "What a pity." At that moment, he thought of Qin Hui and Cai Jing, two treacherous ministers who wrote very well.

Although he didn't say it, Chen Mo already understood that he could not feel angry when he felt his emotions. He was obviously really numb.

He put away the stack of words neatly and pressed them with paperweight. Mr. Chen said lightly: "Did you remember the lesson after copying the lesson a hundred times?" He was about to hit him a few more times before starting to give him a lecture.

"Remembering like a stream." Silently said.

"Don't set the cannon!" Chen Lian's expression, which had just been relaxed, tensed up again: "Do you think you can recite it backwards?"

"Yes." said silently: "I can't eat or drink, and I'm so strict and respectful to Taoist masters, and the eighth chapters..."

The classmates below stopped memorizing the book, and they all took out a book of "Shen's Learning Training" and followed him to read it word by word.

Silently spoke clearly, without any speed, and soon finished memorizing a short lesson, and still said calmly: "Sir, I've finished memorizing it."

"Oh..." Chen Lian seemed to eat glutinous rice dumplings but couldn't drink water, and he felt very uncomfortable... He wanted to scold him again, but this time he asked him to memorize the lessons, and he could recite them like a stream, which shows how deep his intentions were. He couldn't even attack him with emotion or reason, but he was really frustrated without attacks, so he had to snort coldly and said, "I'll go and give him a respect." Then he shook his sleeves and strode out of the school.

Chen Lian did not go into the cottage, but returned to his dormitory, looked at the eight big words written on the wall, and repeatedly recited silently: "If you have teachings, don't be different, be careful to be forbearance", "If you have teachings, don't be different, be careful to be forbearance"... This was written specifically by him in order to restrain his hot temper. When he was irrational, he came to face the wall to relieve his anger.

He was a tough and upright person, with ambition to protect the country and the people, and was fortunate to be a Jinshi early, and he wanted to do a great job. However, he was born at the wrong time, and he was just in a hurry to take power. Seeing those flattering and opportunistic people stealing high positions, although he was conscientious and honest, he was always solidified as a seventh-rank county magistrate and could not be promoted after the exam!

Now that time has passed, his white hair has become more and more, he only sees the smoky and chaotic things in the court. He wants to clear the anger of the demon but is powerless. How can he not hate him in his heart?

He once said to his elder brother: "I hate two people the most in this life. First, I am a great traitor and evil person. For example, the father and son of Yan, the first is to take advantage of the opportunity and use Zhao Wenhua and Yan Maoqing!" Unfortunately, this extreme old man pointed silence as Xiao Zhao Wenhua, Xiao Yan Maoqing and others, and looked down on him.

In theory, he would drive him away by taking pretext if he didn't like him. But Chen Lian is a gentleman and would never do such a conscience-abiding thing. Even if he wanted to drive away silence, he would have to convince him!

Alas, what a twisted old man...

After a while, Chen Lian came back, sat upright behind the big desk with a expressionless face and said, "Recite the Thousand Characters."

Silence started to recite the beginning of the "Heaven and Earth are mysterious and yellow, and the universe is vast and vast". He did not hold his hands behind his back and shake his head like other students, but stood naturally, using his dantian to vent his energy. He did not use much force, but his words were clear and loud... This was achieved through countless meetings and reports.

"I am ignorant, stupid, and others ridiculed; those who predicate and speak are helpful!" After memorizing a thousand words, they were as smooth as silk, without any errors or flaws. He memorized them all at the age of seven or eight. He copied them again yesterday, so naturally it would not be a problem.

"I've memorized it, but do you understand the meaning of it?" Chen Lian asked in a deep voice.

"Report to me, I understand." I was silent and unhurried, and said slowly.

"You have camels and don't talk about sheep, but you just choose big ones." Chen Lian snorted and said, "Although "Thousand Characters" is a reading material for children, it is usually only for literacy and does not ask students to understand it very much. Do you know why?"

"Because it is short, it has been astronomy, geography, and dynasties, and has been involved in self-cultivation and governance of the country and family." Chen said softly: "As the saying goes, 'knowing ten lectures'. If you want to explain one by one, you have to understand all these aspects. It is really a bit difficult for people to do it."

Although his tone was soothing, Chen Lian could still hear that this was a hidden needle in the cotton, implying that the teacher had no real talent and knowledge, and he didn't even dare to understand the text of a thousand characters. Although he did not name a name, he could not escape the intention of "pointing at the monk and scolding the bald man".

However, Chen Lian still couldn't do it because Chen Si was telling the truth. Since Taizu and Cheng Yibo decided to select scholars from the eight-legged essays, they specialized in the Four Books and Five Classics. The answerer had to imitate the tone of the ancients and elaborate on Cheng Zhu's concentration to explain the topic. Taizu's orders gave the 'One of the imperial examination,' and let all scholars in the world get into the Four Books and Five Classics, and disdained other "miscellaneous books".

Over time, those who can explain the Four Books and Five Classics clearly and teach the eight-legged essays are good teachers. Who should take care of other things?

But Chen Lian is an exception. He has been smart and genius since childhood. He passed the imperial examination at the age of 25 and became a Jinshi at the age of 32. In the past ten years, he has had a lot of time to read books. He asked himself that he is well-versed in ancient times and modern times. Of course, he doesn't want to be looked down upon by this boy and sneered: "Then let's verify each other and see who is pretending to understand."

Silent but still politely said: "I don't dare to accept it, just think that the student will ask for advice."

It was this attitude that made Mr. Chen unable to get angry and said in a muffled voice: "You ask a question first."

"Sir, who are the 'Dragon Master Fire Emperor, Bird Official Human Emperor' referring to?" Chen Si smiled slightly.

"The Dragon Master is Fuxi, because he has half a dragon and half a human body, the Fire Emperor is Shennong, because he has the honor of Emperor Yan; the bird official is Shaohao, because he named the bird as all officials; the Human Emperor is Nuwa, because he made humans because he made soil." After an easy answer, Mr. Chen asked back: "What does it mean to keep it and leave Gantang and chant more?"

"When Zhao Gong was alive, he was governing under the Gantang tree. After his death, the people missed him more and sang." Silent smiled faintly.
