In the Tianren Continent, Xiacheng, Kyoto of Wu, the Minister of Revenue Ran Zicheng sat upright in front of the desk, holding a dragon and phoenix pen made of real dragon bones and spiritual phoenix feathers in his hand, and wrote on the spiritual turtle shell on the table over and over again.

"Ninety-nine..."

Ran Zicheng's eyes flashed with thoughts, and his hands were faster, and strange patterns began to appear on the shell of the spirit turtle.

Close his eyes, but the movements on his hands remained inertia. A sizzling sound broke out in the turtle shell, but at this time, Ran Zicheng's mind had already sunk into the sea of ​​wisdom.

The wisdom key between the eyebrows is where all human wisdom and thoughts are gathered. Ran Zicheng, who is already a Hanlin cultivation level, is now rolling up huge waves of thoughts.

It was surging and surging, waves sweeping over, the sound of waves roaring, it was the sound of class division.

Standing on this surging sea of ​​wisdom and towering into the clouds, there were already ninety-nine holy power peaks. Moreover, these ninety-nine peaks were even higher than the other. From the first to the last, it seemed to form a magnificent ladder.

That's right, it's the ladder.

The ninety-nine-story ladders rise from Ran Zicheng's sea of ​​wisdom, each one higher than the previous one, climbing one by one, forming a road to heaven.

"Ninety-nine floors! Ninety-nine floors! It's still one level away. My class ladder can reach the sky..."

Ran Zicheng's voice echoed in the Sea of ​​Zhi, like the holy sound of the nine heavens. The colorful auspicious clouds in the sky fell down the golden holy power, turning into a stream of rivers, merging into the Sea of ​​Zhi, and then even rose up from the sea after the 99th floor of the ladder.

The sea embraces all rivers, and the holy power pours into the sea of ​​wisdom like a river, is soaked in the water of thought in the sea of ​​wisdom, and then rises up from the sea. According to the different Taos of each Confucian scholar, it forms mountains of various shapes.

These holy power peaks are the tools of Confucian scholars. Confucius said that Duanmu Ci was a weapon, which was coral. As expected, Duanmu Ci advanced to the realm of great scholars. The mountains and rivers of the Holy Power rose from the sea and became coral.

There is also the founder of the Legalists, the saint Han Feizi. Legend has it that the instrument in the sea of ​​wisdom is one hundred heaven-measuring rulers. This is Han Feizi's Legalist idea. He uses the law as a ruler. Even if it is a sin of heaven, he dares to punish himself, so he dares to call himself "the heaven-measuring ruler".

Zhuangzi, who was a Taoist sub-saint, is said to have a weapon that is not dead, does not fall into the ground, or falls into the sea. When he was promoted to a great scholar, the world changed color, and a dreamy butterfly that flew from nowhere actually penetrated into Zhuangzi's sea of ​​wisdom and became his "utensil".

The difference in Tao is the difference in tools. And this is Ran Zicheng, who takes the concept of class as the Tao and is determined to use a strict class system to manage the Wu Kingdom. His tools are one hundred ladders and peaks. Now, there are ninety-nine who have achieved a hundred ladders and one who is under construction, and the great scholars are about to succeed.

"The day when the Hundred Ladders of Heaven is completed is the time when I, Ran Zicheng, fully implement the concept of class governance."

Very satisfied with the current situation in Zhihai, Ran Zicheng slowly retracted his mind. After opening his eyes, he was full of energy and bright eyes, and his body exuded a momentum, as if he wanted to connect the entire world with a class ladder. He climbed from the ground to the sky one by one.

"Master, Prince Zeng, the young master of the prince, is here."

The servant butler Ran Tong outside the door knocked carefully, for fear of disturbing his master's thoughts and contemplation.

"Can Zeng Gui come? You can let him in!"

Ran Zicheng was energetic, and then gently covered half of the corner with a book, deliberately leaving half of it.

"Mr. Ran, Zeng is here to disturb him again!"

Zeng Guineng, from the first-rank prince’s junior teacher, Hanlin Wenwei, had a beard and smiled, and he said as soon as he entered the door.

"Where! Where! Lord Zeng is the young master of the prince, and he is a great master. When he comes this time, he will discuss with me the "On the Richness and Poverty and Humbleness"?"

Ran Zicheng smiled politely and said.

"That's right! It's right! Lord Ran's "Theory of Wealth, Poverty and Humbleness" has now penetrated into the children of major aristocratic families in our dynasty. As far as I know, among the children of Hanlin and above, one percent of them used Lord Ran's "Theory of Wealth, Poverty and Humbleness". Now, all the whole country is hoping that Lord Ran can immediately advance to the great scholar's cultivation, so... "Theory of Wealth, Poverty and Humbleness" can be from the masterpiece of Mingzhou to become a criminal code that can govern the country."

Zeng Guineng, who walked into the study, said compliments while searching the room. When his eyes touched the covered corner of the hundred-year-old turtle armor in the book case, he saw a crack on it, and his heart immediately sank, his face changed slightly, but he immediately returned to normal.

"Mr. Zeng is too proud. Since my father died, I, Ran Zicheng, vowed to use class concepts and policies to govern all the gentry and people of our Wu Kingdom. Fortunately, the current emperor agrees with my point of view. This ideal can be achieved just when the hundreds of ladders in my sea of ​​wisdom are built."

Ran Zicheng obviously noticed the fleeting changes on Zeng Guineng's face, but he said calmly.

"Why would you like Lord Ran, how many ladders have been built today?" Zeng Guineng asked with a smile, but he had already begun to feel a sense of urgency in his heart.

In fact, Zeng Guineng did not agree with Ran Zicheng's class concept. He was born as a poor and humble child, and his enlightenment concept was "poor and stronger". He believed that no matter how poor and humble he was, he could move towards the way to achieve his goals as long as he worked hard.

However, since Ran Zicheng's "Theory of Wealth, Noble and Poverty" was born, not only did the king Sun Jianshi highly praised it, but even the upper class of the entire Wu Kingdom was quite moved. Because once Ran Zicheng broke through to the great scholar's cultivation, the "Theory of Wealth, Noble and Poverty and Poverty" rose and became a strategy to maintain the country. Then, for the king Sun Jianshi, the "Class Decree" could be promulgated to completely separate the people and the gentry of the entire Wu Kingdom with detailed classes.

In this way, it will be even more difficult for the lower class people to get rid of their destiny. Moreover, the gentry and people of different classes must not communicate, otherwise it would violate the Class Law.

However, because Ran Zicheng's "Theory of Wealth, Nothing, Poverty and Humbleness" takes Confucius's "Those who are not as good as oneself without friends" as the basis, this sentence has formed a consensus for thousands of years. The ministers in the court, who are in the position of literary creation created by Confucius, dare not openly stand up and refute Ran Zicheng even if they have any objections and different opinions. In addition, this set of laws has an incomparable effect on the monarch Sun Jianshi's control of the people and the gentry, so he gained strong support.

“It’s a very different place, it’s a very different place!”

Faced with Zeng Guineng's questions, Ran Zicheng did not answer positively, but pretended to inadvertently put aside the book that was changed to the century-old turtle spirit armor, revealing the full picture inside.

"The spiritual armor is broken, and the great scholar is born?"

When Zeng Guineng saw the turtle spirit armor that had been cracked with nearly a hundred thin cracks, he was shocked in his heart. He knew that Ran Zicheng was probably at the most critical moment of the Hanlin breakthrough at this time. Without guessing, he could know that the ladder in his sea of ​​wisdom should have been built with ninety-nine ladders, only the last one.

"This... Lord Ran, I want to congratulate you! A hundred ladders are here!" Zeng Guineng hurriedly bowed his hand to congratulate him.

"What did Lord Zeng say? How could the hundred ladders and great scholars' literary status be achieved so easily? I am still far from each other! It's far from each other!" Ran Zicheng hurriedly hid the turtle spirit armor, as if he was really accidentally seen by Zeng Gui.

"Mr. Ran is still as humble as ever! I will not disturb my practice, so I will leave first! Let's leave!"

On the surface, he looked calm and wanted to leave, but in fact, Zeng Guineng was already like an ant on a hot pan, eager to leave the Ran Mansion, and quickly looked for Grand Tutor Wu Jin to discuss countermeasures after Ran Zicheng was promoted to a great scholar.

"Then Lord Zeng walk slowly, let's discuss the classics of the scriptures in the future." Looking at Zeng Guineng's back, a smile of a successful plan appeared on Ran Zicheng's mouth, and he said secretly, "It's virtual and real, it's real and it's virtual. I deliberately exposed the turtle spirit armor that practiced "Theory of Wealth, Honor, Poverty and Humbleness" to Zeng Guineng. Do he believe it? Or don't believe it?"

With a calm smile, Ran Zicheng began to concentrate and close his eyes again, sink his spiritual consciousness into the sea of ​​consciousness, and said intimately, "Whether Zeng Gui can believe it or not, when he discusses with Grand Master Wu Jin how to deal with me, my great scholar's ladder will be born, who can stop my sharp edge?"

With his majestic ambition, Ran Zicheng laughed three times, and accelerated the crystallization of the sea of ​​thought. One by one, the thoughts were surging. The last ladder in the sea water actually accelerated the speed of condensation. Now it has reached most of the 99th ladder. I am afraid that the hundred ladders can be cast as soon as today.

At this time, in the military camp of Changcheng Town, located on the border of Wu State, Grand Secretary Hong Jingzhang was worried and said to the general Shen Ruoxue, who was in the camp, with a worried look on his face: "General, this time, the teacher, Grand Master Wu, sent me here. Ming was the trial of Tong Sheng, the leader of the team, but in fact, he begged the general to take action and use the Shangfang sword to kill the Minister of Revenue Ran Zicheng. Otherwise, once his great scholar's cultivation is achieved, the poor people in the Wu State will never have a chance to stand out!"

"Sir Hong, you also know. I, Shen Ruoxu, used my official position to open up the sea of ​​wisdom, was destined to be loyal to the emperor in this life and never treason. Now, what is the reason for you to use the Shangfang Sword given by the Lord to kill a first-rank minister of the Ministry of Revenue who was valued by the Lord? Wouldn't you betray me a place of unfaithfulness and unrighteousness?"

General Shen Ruoxu was wearing dragon scale armor, his aura was introverted, but he showed a calm and obscene look down on the world. He rejected Shen Ruoxu's request reasonably and reasonably. However, Shen Ruoxu was also struggling in his heart. In essence, he could see that class policy was not good for the long-term development of the country, but the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor affected his thinking in the sea of ​​wisdom.

"General, the loyalty of the official position is given by the national destiny, and is loyal to the country, not certain intentions and arrangements of the king. Now Ran Zicheng is trying to use the class policy of "Theory of Wealth, Wealth, Poverty, and Humbleness" to turn our Wu Kingdom into a hell on earth. As a guardian of the country, how can the general sit idly and stand by and watch?"

Hong Jingzhang was trying to convince Chen Ruoxu again, but suddenly a golden light flew directly into the camp. Hong Jingzhang immediately grabbed it with one hand, his face changed drastically, and he shouted: "General, the teacher's letter is coming. It will be too late if he doesn't do it! Ran Zicheng's hundred ladders are about to complete!"
Chapter completed!
