Dafeng's Night Squad

42 The quasi-Sage and his wife.

The cold wind swept through the forest, and the dead branches wailed mournfully.

Xu Qi ‘an looked at Xu niannian, whose clothes and black hair were dancing in the wind, on the stone-paved path. His cousin, who was so good-looking that it made people jealous, looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.

He pointed to a waterfall in the distance and introduced, ” this is the place where a senior of the Academy comprehended the Tao. There is a stone tablet by the waterfall, which records the life of that senior.

There was a lack of water in the winter, so the waterfall was thin and weak. It rushed into the pool listlessly, and the water was so clear that one could see the bottom.

There was a stone tablet beside the pond, and a bronze man was sitting cross-legged in meditation. The stone tablet was inscribed with the life story of a scholar named Qian Zhong. This person was born 600 years ago, and he was active during the founding of the DA Feng dynasty.

At that time, the king of the previous dynasty was muddleheaded, the officials were corrupt, the tyrants preyed on the people, and the Central Plains was filled with smoke and rebel armies.

At that time, the Imperial court, great Zhou, and the rebel armies were engaged in a tug-of-war that lasted for more than ten years. The people living at the bottom of the society were extremely poor.

Qian Zhong, a second grade great Confucian, had been traveling for three years and had witnessed the People’s miserable lives. He was filled with anger and brought the People’s grievances to the capital of great Zhou, using his body to destroy the few National fortunes of great Zhou.

After that, Da Feng established a country, quelled the chaos, and the four Seas were peaceful.

“Is the great Confucian realm that powerful?” “Why don’t I see the word ‘awesome’ on the three great scholars?” Xu Qi ‘an asked doubtfully.

Xu niannian didn’t know what ” awesome ” meant, but it was undoubtedly a vulgar word. Thinking of his brother’s poem, he couldn’t help but mock him and replied, ”

“Who told you that teacher and the others are second stage great Confucians? they are only fourth stage gentlemen.”

what? ” Xu Qi ‘an was in disbelief. how can you still call yourself a great scholar? ”

Xu niannian squatted down by the pond, washed his hands, and explained, “”There are two meanings to a great scholar. One is a scholar with deep knowledge and a reputation;The other was a rank-2 that specifically referred to the Confucian path. The great scholar of our Academy belongs to the former.”

Destroying a country’s fate with the grievances of the people, even if the fate of the dynasty was weak at the end of the year, was still not something that could be done by human strength. Just how strong was a rank-2 in the way of Confucius? What about rank-1?

Xu Qi ‘an fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said in a respectful tone, “”Does the Yun Lu Academy have a second rank great scholar?”

No. Xu niannian shook his head and said regretfully, ” in the past 200 years, there has only been a third-grade great scholar. The third-grade great scholar is the fate establishing realm. I only heard about it from my teacher when I was sending off layman Zi Yang. Our Academy’s Dean is a rank-3 life establishing master.”

Xu Qi ‘an’s tone suddenly became relaxed, and he commented casually, “”Not bad.”

The three old gentlemen seemed to be a little boastful and frivolous, lacking a little calmness and seriousness. Xu Qi ‘an told Xu Erlang his evaluation.

“They weren’t like this in the past. After the gentleman realm, it’s the third stage of the life establishing realm ...” This might have something to do with the life establishing realm.”

“Yes, layman Zi Yang used to be like this too, but recently, he’s changed his personality. I heard from my teacher that layman Zi Yang is only half a step away from establishing life.”

The two brothers strolled aimlessly around the academy. Xu Xinian brought him to visit some famous places. As the Academy with a long history of 1200 years, if it were not for the fact that it was usually forbidden for outsiders to enter and disturb the students ‘study, Mount Qingyun would have become a tourist spot.

“Big brother ...” As they were walking, Xu niannian suddenly shouted in a deep voice.

Xu Qi ‘an stopped and looked at him.

Xu niannian glanced at him, then turned his face away and pretended to look around. “I thought about it for a long time yesterday. If it weren’t for you, father would’ve been beheaded and his female family members would’ve been taken into the Imperial Academy.”

“If it wasn’t for you, little sister lingyue would have been in danger yesterday. It’s very likely that he was bullied by that Zhou guy.”

if it wasn’t for you, the Xu family might still be immersed in the luck of surviving a disaster, and then one day, they would suddenly be exterminated.

After he finished speaking, he strode forward for more than ten meters and said silently, “Thank you!

......

Quasi-Saint Academy.

Xu Qi ‘an followed his cousin up the steps, past the incense burner, and into the hall. A seven-meter-tall red-painted pillar supported the dome. The quasi-Saint that was worshipped in the Academy was the founder of the Yun Lu Institute.

In the thin flame of the candle, the quasi-Saint was wearing a blue lapel Confucian robe and a tall Confucian crown. One hand was behind his back and the other was on his waist, looking into the distance.

Beside the quasi-Saint was a beautiful white Deer. One could vaguely see cloud patterns on its white fur.

Xu niannian pointed at the White Deer and said, “”This is the origin of the name of Yun Lu Academy.”

“Scholars are elegant,” Xu Qi ‘an said.”The White Deer is the Mount.”

Xu niannian glanced at his cousin and corrected him, “”It’s not a Mount, it’s a wife,”

“!!!”Xu Qi ‘an reexamined the quasi-Sage and muttered, “”There’s no difference.”

He didn’t dare to say this out loud.

Xu niannian seemed to know what his cousin was thinking and said, ” in the records of cloud deer of the Academy, it was recorded that this White Deer was a demon. It sat down and listened to the Scriptures of the sage before it transformed into a human and accompanied the quasi-Sage. The human and demon had been together since they were young and had a deep relationship. They became husband and wife.

“The love between a human and a demon was not allowed to exist in the world at that time ... It was the same now. However, after the sage found out, he didn’t break up the couple. Instead, he agreed to their marriage.Boundless love. It can be seen that as long as there is love, humans and demons can also live together.”

Since ancient times, the love between humans and demons had a nickname, like the unity of heaven and man. So, what was the nickname of this quasi-Saint?

Pointing out a deer as a horse ... The horse’s horse? Xu Qi ‘an cupped his hands at the quasi-saint statue.

As Xu xinnian was respectfully greeting the quasi-Saint, Xu Qi ‘an looked around the hall and found a stone tablet as tall as a person on the left and right sides of the hall.

One side was blank, while the other side was carved with words.

He walked in front of the tablet and read,”repaying the king’s kindness with justice, your name will be passed down for generations-Cheng Hui.”

The handwriting was neat, not sloppy, not scribbled, not exaggerated, giving people a feeling of a gentleman’s magnanimity.

“This was left behind by the quasi-Saint from the Directorate.” Xu niannian walked over and stood in front of the stone tablet with his cousin.

“A quasi-Saint from the Directorate ... That’s right, I’ve never been clear about the details of the grudges between the Directorate and the Yun Lu Academy.” Xu Qi ‘an was very interested, and the word ” eat melon ” was written in his eyes.

Xu niannian looked around and saw no one around. Then he said in a low voice, “”This matter starts from the war for the throne two hundred years ago.”

“Fight for the country’s Foundation?” Although Xu Qi ‘an was an amateur in history, he still knew what it meant to fight for the country’s Foundation.

The Crown Prince was the foundation of the country!

Fighting for the country was to fight for the position of the Crown Prince.

“At that time, the Renzong was in power, and the position of Crown Prince had been vacant for more than ten years. The two princes were strong competitors at that time. One was the eldest son of the Emperor, and the other was a Prince born of a concubine. That noble was very charming and charming, and was deeply loved by the Renzong.

...

“When the benevolence sect decided to make a common-born Prince the Crown Prince, they were opposed by the entire court. The benevolence sect had issued many edicts, but they were all rejected by the cabinet. At that time, the ones who led the court were the scholars of Yun Lu Academy.

“The rules of the ancient times have been established, and not even the Emperor can go against them. Big brother, you’re right. The ritual system is a dragon-slaying technique used by scholars.

“In this war of national importance, neither side was willing to admit defeat. They fought for six whole years. During this period, four people were changed in the cabinet, and one batch of officials left the court. There were more than two hundred officials involved in the capital and other places.
