Chapter 203 Zeng Shilin: You had physical contact with Sai Chuxue? ! ! Are you worthy of Wan'er!
A test of character?
Zeng Anmin felt a little excited.
I wonder what Tao will use to test my character?
[Nan: Well, I always feel that there is something wrong with four people opening the four great Heavenly Dao diagrams at the same time.]
[Nan: Although we don't know what will happen in the future, it's always a good idea for us to accumulate strength.]
【Huang: You guys are making so much noise that I can’t sleep. 】
【Bei: Huang is here too? Long time no see.】
[Huang: I was sleeping soundly just now, but I felt a vibration in my chest. I took out the Taotie map and saw that it was you guys chatting.]
Um? ?
See this line of words.
Zeng Anmin was suddenly stunned.
Chest tremors???
Pull out the Taotie picture from the chest? ?
Although it is just a simple line of information.
Zeng Anmin keenly noticed that something was wrong!
no……
Aren’t you like me, directly absorbing the true meaning of the picture into your sea of consciousness?
really.
Zeng Anmin narrowed his eyes.
It’s pretty much what I thought.
They just awakened the Heavenly Dao Diagram.
And what I am doing is...absorbing.
Different.
But he didn't show any abnormality.
His fingers continued to write on the shadow of the Dragon Map:
【North: I actually have a question for everyone here.】
【Dao: What's the problem?】
[Bei: Who among you knows the most about the history of Confucianism and Taoism?]
There was a hint of solemnity in Zeng Anmin's brow.
He has not yet cultivated to the fourth level.
Want to spy on Dad's plan.
He must be promoted to the fourth rank first, but it is not easy for him to be promoted to the fourth rank.
Moreover, the overall quality of the teachers in the Imperial College is lower than that of Qilin Academy.
In the entire Imperial College, there was only one great scholar, Qin Shoucheng.
Now that Qin Shoucheng is dead, the remaining teachers in the Imperial College are of the same rank as himself.
There's nothing to be gained by asking.
"I feel like the reason my father allowed me to enter the Imperial College instead of the Qilin Academy was probably because he was on guard against me, afraid that I would find out some of the secrets of Confucianism and Taoism by going to the Qilin Academy..."
"After all, Dad has never doubted my intelligence."
Zeng Anmin touched his chin, his eyes gleaming with brilliance.
"Since we can't get anything out of the capital, let's ask the allies of the Tiandao League."
[Nan: Confucianism and Taoism? If you want to learn about the history of Confucianism and Taoism, I suggest you find a college. Most colleges have a copy of "A Chronicle of Confucian Cultivation."]
The history of Confucianism?
Why haven’t I heard anyone else talk about it?
Zeng Anmin nodded seriously:
【Bei: Okay, I'll go take a look when I get a chance.】
He memorized the book "Chronicle of Confucianism".
Nan: I know most about the history of Confucianism before the Han Dynasty. As for the history of Confucianism after the Han Dynasty, I know most about the history of Confucianism in Jiang State.
See this sentence.
Zeng Anmin grinned.
The previous dynasty was the Han Dynasty.
Since the Han Dynasty, Taizu of the Great Sheng Dynasty and Taizu of the Jiang Kingdom divided the entire world into two.
Therefore, the history books of the two countries are naturally different.
He continued curiously:
[Bei: Oh? Then have you seen anything strange in Jiangguo's Confucian history?]
[Nan: The path of cultivation, each system has its own unique characteristics, and the history of Confucian cultivation is extremely boring. I only remember the first few sentences now.]
Then Nan wrote:
In the first year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, the great scholar Qin Li went to Jiang and spread Confucianism.
In the second year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, Qin Li accepted eighty Confucian disciples as his own.
Zeng Anmin was a little confused.
He reached out and wrote:
[North: Are all the records of this kind of boring stuff?]
Nan: It's all like that. Compared to the "Jiangguo Confucian History," the "Chronicle of Confucianism" has better content.
Zeng Anmin yawned:
[Bei: Okay, if you have nothing else to do, I'll go to sleep first.]
【Dao: Well, I am about to practice.】
【Nan: I’m going to sleep too.】
[Huang: Huh? I just got here! Oh, I woke you up. Were you guys asleep?]
[Huang: Hey! ! Speak! ]
【Huang: I’m really impressed.】
[Huang: Forget it, I can't sleep, so I might as well go kill some monsters.]
…
Exit from the sea of consciousness.
No words were spoken that night.
The next day.
Zeng Anmin rode a horse to the Imperial Academy to serve on duty.
After entering the gate of the Imperial College.
Without any hesitation, he came to Guo Zijian's library.
Looking at the familiar door in front of me.
Zeng Anmin walked in slowly.
The last time I came to the bookstore at the Imperial College was to look for records about Yin Wu's slaying of the demon.
"Please help me find the Chronicle of Confucian Cultivation."
There were clerks in charge of the library at the Imperial College.
He found a place to sit down and took out a badge.
After seeing his badge, the clerk looked respectful.
Soon, he found two books from the bookcase.
"Thank you."
Zeng Anmin looked at the two books in front of him, his eyes flashing with thought.
"Chronicles of Confucianism"
History of Confucianism in the Holy Dynasty
Of these two books, the first one is a little yellowed.
The next one is brand new.
Without hesitation, he opened the first book and his eyes fell on the yellowed cover.
【In the first year of the new year, the Confucian saint is born.】
In the 45th year of the Xinyuan Yuan Dynasty, the Confucian sage founded Confucianism and Taoism.
In the sixtieth year of the Xin Yuan era, the Confucian sage journeyed to the Myriad Demon Mountains and single-handedly slew the Demon Emperor, the Ten Demon Kings, and three hundred Demon Lords.
…
【In the tenth year of the Hechu era, Ya Sheng was born. 】
In the twenty-sixth year of the Hechu reign, the Second Sage entered the Dao.
[In the 27th year of the Hechu era, the Second Sage was promoted to the seventh rank.]
[In the 30th year of the Hechu era, the Second Sage was promoted to the sixth rank.]
In the thirty-first year of the Hechu era, the Second Sage, due to the extraordinary power of the Purple Palace, realized the second of the Six Arts.
[In the thirty-third year of the Hechu era, the sub-sage was promoted to the fifth rank, slew the evil spirit, and became famous throughout the world.]
…
In the 43rd year of the Hechu era, the Second Sage wrote a book and was promoted to the first rank. He traveled to the border to fight the Suanni Demon King.
In the forty-third year of the Hechu era, the Second Sage returned from the border, but soon died, transforming into a colorful butterfly and disappearing. At the end of the same year, the Suanni Demon King died suddenly.
Zeng Anmin was speechless.
The book "Chronicle of Confucianism" does not record any miraculous things about Confucianism and Taoism.
It is full of stories about various Confucian and Taoist studies.
Not even deeds.
Just some bystander's records.
He felt that he had gained nothing from watching it.
[In the 17th year of the Hongqi era, the great scholar Qin Li was born.]
[In the 37th year of the Hongqi era, Qin Li attained enlightenment in calligraphy.]
In the fifty-seventh year of the Hong Qi era, he poured all his life's wisdom into calligraphy and compiled it into a single scroll.
In the 60th year of the Hongqi reign, Qin Li passed away. In the same year, the Han Dynasty was destroyed.
That's the last page of the book.
After the Han Dynasty was destroyed, the human race in the world was divided into two, becoming the current Sheng Dynasty and Jiang Kingdom.
Therefore, the subsequent history of Confucianism was recorded by each country within its own country.
After finishing the book, he looked at the book "History of Confucianism in the Holy Dynasty" next to him.
This book is about some Confucian monks who have left their names in history over the past thousand years of the Great Sage Dynasty.
He began to watch from the first year of the Holy Dynasty.
[In the first year of Qianyuan: the great scholar Shi Han entered the holy dynasty.]
[In the seventh year of Qianyuan, the great scholar Shi Han taught his disciples]
…
Watched till the end:
In the spring of the 13th year of Jianhong, the great scholar Qin Shoucheng followed the army to Mount Baideng, where he fought a desperate battle with the great demon king Bixuan and died with him.
The last sentence.
It inexplicably touched Zeng Anmin's heart.
He pursed his lips, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the pages of the book that exuded the scent of ink.
"President Qin..."
His voice murmured.
Qin Yuan's life is simply condensed into this sentence by this book.
He felt that his sea of consciousness was a little hazy.
After reading it, he slowly stood up and returned to his room in the Imperial College.
Finished reading two books.
It's already very late.
After staying in the Imperial College for a while, he headed towards his home.
…
"Another day of reading."
“I feel much more fulfilled.”
"I am one step closer to the realm of a great scholar."
Return to the yard.
Zeng Anmin played with Hu Zi for a while.
Then he saw his father returning from office.
"father."
Zeng Anmin was sitting on a chair in the yard. When he saw Zeng Shilin, he stood up and greeted his father with a smile:
"Why are you coming to my place instead of going back to your yard?"
Zeng Shilin had no expression on his face:
"The Crown Prince's disguise was exposed yesterday, and he was punished by His Majesty today."
Forehead.
Zeng Anmin was shocked when he heard this.
"His itinerary for coming to Shangshu Mansion..."
Zeng Shilin shook his head slowly. He came to sit in front of Zeng Anmin.
"No, he just told His Majesty that he wanted to go out for a stroll in the imperial city."
"But my father took the initiative to tell His Majesty that he came to the palace to seek news about you."
…
Well.
Zeng Anmin instantly understood what his father meant.
Dad is being upright and incorruptible.
It also sends a message to Your Majesty: I am only loyal to Your Majesty.
It's just a pity for the prince.
Got stabbed in the back by my dad.
"The prince is looking for you to capture the Southern King for the celebration in the capital, right?"
Zeng Shilin lay on the chair, looking at Zeng Anmin with a faint gaze.
"Dad, you are indeed a prophet."
Zeng Anmin gave a thumbs up.
"snort."
The old man raised his lips slightly, then looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice:
"The battle for the throne is thrilling at every step. Your father advises you not to get involved."
"And this place has a close relationship with Duke Ningguo..."
Having said that, Dad stopped talking.
"That's what I thought."
Zeng Anmin nodded seriously and said, "But I will definitely go to the celebration. After all, I played a significant role in capturing the Southern King."
"So, you also want to ask what scenes will be there during the celebration that will stand out?"
Zeng Shilin raised his head and looked at Zeng Anmin with a smile.
"It's better to be prepared. I don't want to be in the spotlight, but I'm afraid that if His Majesty really asks me about it, I'll be caught off guard and lose my reputation."
Zeng Anmin sighed and said:
"I can lose face in front of the officials, but my father is behind me, and I cannot bring shame to your reputation."
"You're thoughtful."
Zeng Shilin sneered:
"After the fall of the Han Dynasty, there was war for seventeen years before the two nations of Sheng and Jiang were separated. The reason they were able to maintain such a long-lasting peaceful relationship was because of the covetous eyes of the demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains."
"Without the demon tribe by our side, there would be no possibility of a thousand years of peace."
"The capture of the Southern King this time can be considered the greatest conflict between our Great Saint Dynasty and the Nanjiang River in the past thousand years."
"If this matter is not handled properly and the two countries fall into war, it will be the people who suffer!"
"You're still here, thinking about showing off at some celebration."
Speaking of this.
Dad suddenly changed the subject:
"What's going on with Miss Sai from the Xuanzhen Division?"
"ah?"
Zeng Anmin was stunned when he heard this.
He didn't understand what his father meant.
"snort!"
Daddy's eyes were filled with brilliance as he looked at him:
"I originally thought you didn't initiate the marriage proposal because Wanyue had to observe three years of mourning."
"I never thought that you and Sai Chuxue from the Xuanzhen Division had already had physical contact?"
What?! !
Zeng Anmin looked at his father's somewhat cold eyes.
People feel a little numb.
What is going on?
How did I have physical contact with Miss Sai...
"Not Dad, who told you that?"
Zeng Anmin looked at Zeng Shilin in confusion.
"snort!"
Zeng Shilin snorted again:
"My father saw it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears!"
So dishonest!
Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.
Not to mention that Miss Sai and I have no physical contact at all.
Yes, there is.
You can't see it with your own eyes or hear it with your own ears...
"Miss Sai and I are completely innocent!"
Zeng Anmin's face turned red with anxiety.
He was almost jumping up and down.
Zeng Shilin just looked at Zeng Anmin expressionlessly:
"What did you say to Sai Chuxue from the Xuanzhen Division in this courtyard yesterday? Do you need me to explain it to you again?"
"I didn't hear it myself, but there are people who did!"
"and!"
Speaking of this, Zeng Shilin's eyes became more fierce:
"Do you know what's going on in the streets today?"
"A disciple saw you and Sai Chuxue embracing each other naked in her meditation room."
"Wanyue loves you deeply. Do you know that if Wanyue hears these rumors..."
At this point, Dad's eyes turned impolite.
He was very bad at saying:
"Even if this is all a misunderstanding, you and Sai Chuxue are indeed innocent."
“What will others think?”
"It doesn't matter to you, but Miss Sai's reputation is really ruined."
…
Zeng Anmin opened his mouth.
There was an expression of incomparable shock on his face.
And confused.
no……
Is this okay? ?
etc!
Rumors? ?
Xu Mingxin!!
Zeng Anmin suddenly thought of the figure of a disciple of Xuanzhensi in his mind.
It’s him!
In Miss Sai's quiet room, that's what he saw...
no……
"I'll take care of this."
Zeng Anmin was silent for a moment.
really.
Now the rumor has spread.
He once pacified the people and was a famous person throughout the world.
Every word and action will be magnified infinitely.
Miss Sai is a direct disciple of Xuanzhensi.
It is also a noble status.
If there is no explanation for this matter, let alone the gossip of the world.
Just getting past Sister Qin is not easy.
Besides, what would the princess think? She would definitely imagine herself as a scumbag.
It will probably be difficult to use the eldest princess's power again in the future.
Hiss, speaking of the eldest princess.
I don't know how she's been doing lately.
Did you miss me...
Bah! What are you thinking!
Zeng Anmin raised his head again.
However, before he could say anything, his father had already left.
Looking at his father's back, Zeng Anmin opened his mouth...
“Women…”
"A woman's heart is as deep as the sea..."
Zeng Anmin smiled bitterly, slowly stood up, his eyes dark:
"What if I really marry Sister Qin, Sai Chuxue, and the eldest princess all at once?"
Having said that, he shook his head directly:
"Wouldn't the house be in chaos then?!"
"Fighting between women is definitely more brutal than fighting between men!"
"How could those authors who wrote harem novels in the past understand how real women get along with each other?"
"It's definitely more brutal than the seventeen years between the Jiang and Sheng kingdoms after the fall of the Han Dynasty."
Speaking of this.
Zeng Anmin was about to step into the house.
Sudden.
His body suddenly stiffened!
etc! !
The Jiang and Sheng kingdoms have been fighting for seventeen years?!
He raised his head suddenly, and there was a sharp gleam in his narrowed eyes.
The few words that Nan had said in his sea of consciousness yesterday slowly emerged in his mind:
In the first year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, the great scholar Qin Li went to Jiang and spread Confucianism.
In the second year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, Qin Li accepted eighty Confucian disciples as his own.
…………
Then, he remembered the information he had gained from reading the Chronicle of Confucianism today.
[In the 17th year of the Hongqi era, the great scholar Qin Li was born.]
[In the 37th year of the Hongqi era, Qin Li attained enlightenment in calligraphy.]
In the fifty-seventh year of the Hong Qi era, he poured all his life's wisdom into calligraphy and compiled it into a single scroll.
In the 60th year of the Hongqi reign, Qin Li passed away. In the same year, the Han Dynasty was destroyed.
Qin Li!
A great scholar!
Hongqi was the reign title of the last emperor of the Han Dynasty!
Qingqian was the reign title of Emperor Taizu of Jiang State!
And Qin Li was a great scholar who had passed away at the end of the Han Dynasty.
And how did it reappear in historical records seventeen years later when the Jiang Dynasty was founded?
