It was still early, and coupled with curiosity, Zhu Pingan leaned against a rock, took out the two newly acquired books, and casually flipped through them.
The Jiaojiao Qing words can be said to be the encyclopaedia of Qing words, thick, casually flip a moment, although it is cloudy, but also have a general understanding of the Qing words. I really do not know the Jiajing Emperor every day to write these cloudy things have a line of meaning, Zhu Pingan skimmed the “Jiaojiao Qing word scripture” into the bag, will be another book “Transmission of the book” took out.
The Book of Transmission is very obscure, it is difficult for ordinary people to understand it, but Zhu Pingan has the advantage that many people in this era do not have, that is, thousands of years of historical precipitation. Wang Yangming’s ideas have been studied by millions of people for hundreds of years, and standing on the basis of his predecessors, it is twice as easy to comprehend with half the effort.
“There is no body of goodness or disgust, but there is goodness and malice in motion; to know good and evil is conscience, and to do good and remove evil is ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge.”
Zhu Pingan leaned against a rock while reading the Transmission Record and reciting softly.
This is the four phrases of heart study, reading Wang Yangming’s book should be matched with the four teachings of heart study that he left at Tianquanqiao, but these four phrases are only known to a very small number of Wang Yangming’s true disciples in this dynasty, but Zhu Pingan is the exception, having read it long ago.
Looking at the “Book of Transmission” Zhu Pingan could not help but be immersed in it, this book is like opening up another world, in this world Wang Yangming left the code against the world, on the world constructed by Wang Yangming in the book, different people may have different interpretations, different comprehension, to get a number of skills, but only those who truly comprehend this code can get the skills to fight against the world.
The autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves, and the fallen leaves chase the autumn wind.
By the time Zhu Pingan returned to his senses from the Book of Transmissions, the entire forest had already become a place where the wind and the fallen leaves revelled.
Patting the fallen leaves that were scraped onto his body by the wind and pulling off the fallen leaves that were stuck to his face, Zhu Pingan got up from the rock, flicked the fallen leaves away from his feet, put the book into his diagonal book bag, and walked in the direction of the inn with the black wooden board clutched to him.
People were coming and going on the street, and Zhu Pingan walked slowly through the crowd with the black wooden board clutched in his hand. While walking, he recalled the Yang Ming School of Mind, nerd-like, and looked a bit out of place compared to the people around him.
While Zhu Pingan was walking forward slowly. A carriage rolled up behind him, the pedestrians on the road dodged when they saw it, only Zhu Pingan was so immersed in his own world that he did not notice the carriage coming up behind him.
“Hey hey hey, that poor showman in front. Quickly get out of the way, you won’t be responsible if you crash and die haha.”
The carriage was unusually luxuriously decorated with a logo, the one driving the carriage was a fat man with a face full of horizontal meat, wearing clothes that still had the family branded costume, pulling the horse’s reins while waving the whip, screaming and cursing at Zhu Pingan.
Poor Xiu Cai?
Is that about me?
Zhu Pingan stood still and turned around to see the carriage pulling on the reins from afar to stop its momentum, as well as the fat man on the carriage waving his whip and shouting at himself.
“You poor showman. Looking for death, can’t you see that it’s the carriage of Lord Zhao’s residence? Don’t know how to die!”
The fat man had a ferocious look on his face and waved his horse whip in a gesture to swing.
“Young man, a good man will not be forced to do so, quickly get out of the way.” The passersby were urging Zhu Ping An to quickly get out of the way, and seemed to be quite scornful of this carriage.
Zhu Pingan arched his hand towards the surrounding persuasive crowd, but still stood there with no intention of moving his feet, after arching his hand and thanking the surrounding crowd, Zhu Pingan then turned to look at this fat man who was bullying others, and faintly spoke. “I think Your Excellency must look both ways more when you are on the road, and be careful not to get hit.”
“Why? What do you mean?” The fat man driving the car asked with a fierce look on his face.
“It’s simple, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being bumped!” Zhu Pingan hooked the corner of his mouth. Indifferently, he said.
Pigs are afraid of bumping!
The surrounding crowd laughed out loud when they heard the meaning in Zhu Pingan’s aggravated tone words.
The fat man froze for a long time before reacting to the fact that Zhu Pingan was mocking him for being like a pig, and became furious, jumping down from the carriage and flattening his sleeves. Revealing his arms that were thicker than Zhu Pingan’s thighs, he was about to make Zhu Pingan understand the reasoning of Showman meets Soldier in minutes.
“Daming Laws, Penal Chapter, Volume 4, Insults, a commoner who insults a student is degrading, when the cane is ten, the fine is three silver coins.”
“Daming Laws, Criminal Title, Volume 9, Miscellaneous Offences, a commoner who insults a student member is disrespectful, and shall be beaten with the cane for thirty days, shackled for three days, and fined one or two pieces of silver.”
“Hongwu 25th year order: strictly prohibit the common people, merchants, skills, foot soldiers, remaining soldiers and miscellaneous labourers, etc. to wear boots, can only wear leather za, only the northern regions where it is cold, allowed to use cowhide straight sewing boots, violators are punished with capital punishment.”
“Your Excellency is not a nobleman and has no merit, and the leather boots you are wearing, oh, they are still made of cowhide, hmmm, let me think, what is the offence of destroying a plough ox privately?”
Zhu Pingan looked at the imposing to beat himself a nose and face of the fat man, calmly, very calmly looked at him, every step he took, Zhu Pingan said a crime, said to the last one, the fat man’s imposing has long been extinguished, replaced by a cold sweat on the forehead.
“Count yourself lucky today!”
The fat man put down a sentence in a stern manner, got on the carriage, greyly drove the carriage around Zhu Ping An and rolled away.
As the fat man drove the carriage away greyly, Zhu Pingan also shook his head slightly and walked towards the direction of the inn with the black wooden board in his hand.
“Aiya, this young man is really something.”
“That’s not true, I was sweating for him on the sidelines, that’s Liu Er from Lord Zhao’s residence, he’s never bullied anyone, this time it’s a lesson for him.”
“What’s so great about that, it’s just a nerd who reads stupid books.”
Since the fat man and Zhu Pingan left, people looked at Zhu Pingan’s slow figure whispering and talking.
The sound of people talking scattered to the ears of Zhu Pingan, Zhu Pingan slowly hooked up the corner of the lips, if not looking at the carriage far from the brakes, they will not stand there; if not looking at the fat man so fat, in this crowded crowd, certainly not run, he alone also dare not leave the carriage to chase himself, he would not be stupid to stand there with him to talk about what the sentence of the reasoning it.
Back to the inn, Zhu Pingan found that there are more people in the inn than yesterday, it should be the students who rushed to the examination today. These people one by one are wearing student uniforms, feel like a superior person, look askance at the eyes of all kinds of inferiority, only the book high, not to mention or Xiu Cai it, a few years of hard work has been rewarded, and now it is more towards the ruling class, it is understandable.
After Zhu Pingan entered the door, these people see Zhu Pingan young age will be wearing a student uniform, especially Zhu Pingan plain clothes, at first glance is the son of the cold family, are also a little surprised.
Zhu Pingan arched his hand at them from afar, and then clipped the black wooden board and continued to walk inside, and when he passed the counter, he greeted the shopkeeper who was counting the accounts, and then walked upstairs to his room with a flourish.
“Why do we need to treat with such coppery people with courtesy, it’s really degrading.”
Those Xiu Cai sitting in the distance, after seeing Zhu Ping An and the shopkeeper’s greeting, they couldn’t help but side-eye and shake their heads, and they were not like that to Zhu Ping An just now, thinking that Zhu Ping An was petty and difficult to become a great man!
