Vol 2 Chapter 1563: reading aloud

  Chapter 1563 The sound of reading aloud

  Emperor Hongzhi had no expression on his face, and accepted the kneeling worship of all officials.

   Then he said lightly: "Fang Qing's family, Wang Qing's family, follow me here."

   This so-called walking is all prepared in advance.

   Apart from these few words, he did not say anything else to the officials from the beginning to the end. With his hands behind his back, he silently led the people out of sight of the officials.

  Emperor Hongzhi stayed up all night, his eyes were bloodshot, but he was in good spirits.

   Arrived at a corner of the palace, here, Xiao Jing had already prepared chariots and horses, and even selected dozens of warriors. These people, together with Wang Shouren, were enough to guarantee the safety of Emperor Hongzhi and Fang Jifan.

  Emperor Hongzhi got into the car, but called Fang Jifan to come up with him.

  Fang Jifan boarded the car and saluted: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Hongzhi said to himself: "Last night, I looked at the throne of Emperor Taizu Gao, and I kept asking, this stereotyped selection of scholars was created by Emperor Taizu Gao. It has been a hundred and fifty years since the stereotype is over. It has hindered the country, and there is no benefit for Sheji, I have the intention to change course, I don't know whether Emperor Taizu Gao will be offended."

   Hearing what he said, Fang Jifan suddenly felt a chill, these words are quite penetrating!

  Fang Jifan said: "Then..."

   Before Fang Jifan could finish his sentence, Emperor Hongzhi said again: "But Emperor Gao didn't hear anything back."

  Fang Jifan: "..."

  Fang Jifan breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid to hear Emperor Hongzhi say that Emperor Gao, the great ancestor, spoke.

  If His Majesty said so, well, this is Emperor Taizu Gao crawling out of the coffin, this is the rhythm that the coffin board can't hold back. Or... Emperor Taizu Gao is still in the sky, and Emperor Hongzhi is crazy.

   No matter what kind of result, Fang Jifan is not happy to see it.

  Emperor Hongzhi didn't know Fang Jifan's active mind. He patted the sofa with his fingers and said in his mouth: "Since Emperor Taizu Gao didn't reply, then...he has acquiesced."

"Yes, yes, yes..." Fang Jifan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "If Emperor Taizu Gao refuses, he must oppose it. Since he is a leisurely old man, it can be seen that he is optimistic. Your Majesty is really wise. Son..."

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand: "Emperor Taizu Gao is my ancestor after all. Whatever I do, whether he likes it or not, as long as he has a spirit in heaven, he will protect him. My only worry is...is this necessary... Let's go to Luzhou first, and then make a decision."

  Fang Jifan nodded, and couldn't help thinking, this Luzhou said that the academic style is at its peak, the magistrate is well educated, and praised by all officials, but he doesn't know whether it is true or not.

   Soon, the carriages and horses arrived at the border of Luzhou, after all, it is not far from Fengyang.

  Emperor Hongzhi and others went to Fucheng first.

  In this prefecture, everything is orderly.

  Emperor Hongzhi got out of the car and looked around, Xiao Jing hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to inform the prefect of Luzhou?"

  Emperor Hongzhi had planned for a long time, he shook his head and said: "For the time being, I don't need it, I came here just to listen to the sound of reading. I just don't know if there is an academy here?"

   "I guess there are." Xiao Jing hesitated in his words, appearing not very confident.

  Fang Jifan said: "Why do you need to look for academies? Which academies don't have scholars? You might as well just walk around from house to house and see how many people are studying."

this…

  Xiao Jing couldn't help but cast a resentful glance at Fang Jifan.

   This guy just comes up with bad ideas all day long, and is always used to making trouble for him.

   For Xiao Jing, going from house to house puts a lot of pressure on security, and when will the trip be over? Isn't this deliberately making him feel uncomfortable?

  After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi recognized it and nodded his head: "What the Qing family said is not unreasonable. It is said that there are reading books everywhere in Luzhou. You only need to ask one by one."

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled, showing interest.

  He now has a deep understanding of the ideas of Xinxue, and is well versed in the principles that go deep into the folk.

  So Emperor Hongzhi asked Xiao Jing, "Did you bring the map of Luzhou?"

   "Take it, take it."

  Emperor Hongzhi took the map, only roughly identified the neighborhood, and said with a casual hand: "Go and see."

Emperor Hongzhi found this place in the first place, and said to Fang Jifan: "This is the place of the prefecture, the most lively place, and those who can live in the city are not all rich, but they are barely wealthy families, and this is the place in the south of the Yangtze River. , the style of study is at its peak, I would like to see how these scholars usually study and what books they read."

  Emperor Hongzhi was very interested. He was happy to meet scholars, and he also liked to go deep into the people to hear what those scholars thought of him.

The street that Emperor Hongzhi was referring to was near the Town God's Temple. Any City God's Temple in any city is a place where three religions and nine streams live together. Although the people living there are not rich or noble, they are not considered down and out because they are located in the bustling city. .

There are rows of houses, and there is a child, barefoot, who is putting his fingers into the mouth, and the saliva is flowing out. Although he is half-grown, he is still wearing a bellyband shamelessly, with bare legs .

  Emperor Hongzhi walked over slowly, glanced at the child, and then stopped.

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "Where does your family live?"

  The child reluctantly pulled his finger out of his mouth, and said fiercely to Emperor Hongzhi, "What are you?

  The smile on Emperor Hongzhi's face gradually disappeared.

  This place is very close to Fengyang, the central capital.

  Old Zhu’s family is the son of heaven, so the official dialect is Fengyang official dialect. Emperor Hongzhi is very familiar with what the child said. Although some accents are different, they are similar.

  The meaning of this is... I will kick you to death.

  Fang Jifan also understood it, and said in his mouth: "Hey, how can you swear, you child without a tutor, when I was your age, I...I..."

  Uh, I can't continue... Fang Jifan suddenly thought at this moment that when he was as old as this child, he didn't seem to be doing very well.

  The child listened to Fang Jifan scolding him, but raised his leg and kicked Fang Jifan's foot. Before Fang Jifan could react, he ran away with bare feet... ran away.

   "This bastard!" Fang Jifan cursed and said, "I'm not done with you, just wait, it's too early for a gentleman to take revenge. If I don't kill you, I'll write the characters backwards."

  Xiao Jing said with a smile: "Duke Qi, you're just a child."

  Emperor Hongzhi was speechless, as if...he really couldn't do anything to that child.

  It's just... It seems that Luzhou gave him the impression...

  He simply asked someone to knock on the door of the first house.

  It was a woman who opened the door, with eyes hanging low, she only glanced at Xiao Jing who knocked on the door: "Who is it?"

  Xiao Jing said in a soft voice: "I am the gentleman in the library, I don't know where I am...does anyone read?"

   "No..." The woman still looked Xiao Jing up and down.

   Xiao Jing looked back at Emperor Hongzhi.

  Emperor Hongzhi has gone to the second house.

  If you don’t ask, you don’t know, but when you ask…you knock on more than a dozen families, and none of them are studying.

When I arrived at the fifteenth house, the door opened, and I heard that a scholar came to visit, but the owner's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, yes, there is a scholar, my cousin's distant nephew, I heard that he is a scholar, his family There are more than 700 mu of land, and it is famous far and wide, even the magistrate of the county goes to his house to drink. I will never lie to you, if you don’t believe me, you go and ask Li Erye of Lijiazhuang, he is a well-known man.”

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

  ...

  Chapter 4 is delivered, ask for a monthly pass.
