Chapter 134 I want to be a saint

Wang Hua acted like he was about to beat someone up: "Just investigating things cannot be known, and the principles of saints are suspicious. Is it what you, a rebellious son, said?!"

Yan Chengjin was still afraid that he would not be able to beat Wang Shouren, but unexpectedly, his father came!

"The lower official can testify, it was Brother Bo'an who said it." He felt anger in his heart, and suddenly he felt extremely relaxed.

Wang Shouren looked dark.

Wang Hua was so angry that he jumped: "Sad son! How dare you question the truth of the saint! Kneel down!"

Wang Shouren had to kneel obediently on the ground.

Wang Hua was a child prodigy. He studied Zhucheng Neo-Confucianism hard since he was a child, studied the books of saints, and used the principles of saints as the foundation for his life. It can be said that he was a representative of Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty and was deeply supported by gentry.

It is said that before Wang Hua won the top scorer, a gentry asked his concubine to serve Wang Hua in the name of asking him to be a private school teacher and borrowed seeds to improve his family genes, which shows how popular he is.

How could a person who regards the teachings of saints as his doctrines let his son question the principles of saints?

It's a coincidence that Wang Shouren was also a prodigy when he was young, but his purpose of learning saints was completely different from Wang Hua. He was as rebellious as Zhu Houzhao since he was young.

It’s really unfair to question the truth of the saint!

Yan Chengjin knew that without saying anything, Wang Hua would beat Wang Shouren hard.

Wang Hua scolded: "What are you learning to study for!"

"Be a saint, establish a mind for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living and the people, carry forward the unique knowledge for the past saints, and bring peace to the ages!" Wang Shouren said in a deep voice.

Wang Hua sneered: "Just because of you, you also want to be a sage?"

There is nothing in the world that is more depressing than the ridicule of his own father. Even Yan Chengjin listened on the side and felt a chill.

Wang Shouren was angry when he heard this: "Why can't a son be a saint? Confucius is a human being, and his son is also a human being. Confucius is proficient in the six arts, and his son is proficient in the six arts. Therefore, Confucius can become a saint and his son can become a saint!"

Wang Hua couldn't help but take off his belt from his waist and wanted to slap Wang Shouren.

Wang Shouren was calm and unhappy: "This is the palace, and my son is already the imperial official. When my father beat me, he beat me, and he would beat me. According to the criminal law, he could be imprisoned!"

Wang Hua staggered back a few steps, as if he had grown up a lot in an instant: "Okay, you have grown up and become an official, your wings are hard, I can't beat you anymore, haha."

This Wang Shouren is a stubborn bull!

Yan Chengjin secretly swore that if he had given birth to such a son, he would definitely beat him to death and die.

Wang Shouren stood up without saying a word and walked towards the duty room of the Ministry of Justice.

After he walked away, Wang Hua sighed: "I have taught all the talents in Jiangnan. I have taught the emperor and the prince, but I can't teach my son alone. It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous."

In fact, Yan Chengjin really wants to comfort him. You are not an isolated case. There are many people with very high knowledge. Their children are not good, and they even become scumbags. It's normal...

"Maybe Brother Bo'an has his own ideas?"

Wang Hua sighed, waved his hand, and went to Zhan Shi Mansion.

…………………………………

The next morning,

When he went to the morning court, Yan Chengjin was waiting in Fengtian Hall.

All officials took advantage of the fact that Emperor Hongzhi had not arrived yet and held a small meeting in advance to discuss major affairs in the court and the opposition.

The Censorate's position is on the left side of the hall, and Yan Chengjin stands next to the pillars of the hall.

Emperor Hongzhi walked up to the imperial throne and faced the officials with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "Reports are sent back to the border, fire sieve invaded Datong and robbed everywhere!"

The ministers were filled with indignation.

Liu Jian strongly recommended: "Your Majesty, it is better to let Datong General Ma Sheng and Weiyuan defender Wang Gao jointly defend the enemy!"

Yan Chengjin fell into deep thought. He remembered that the Ming Dynasty sent Ma Sheng and Wang Gao to meet the enemy, but Ma Sheng died in battle, and only the guard Wang Gao escaped.

Fire Screen is the most ferocious branch under the Little Prince. He is good at fighting and fighting, has a great reputation on the grassland, and even understands the military tactics of the Han people better than many Ming generals.

The battle of Helan Mountain originally suffocated the Tatars' spirit and allowed the Ming Dynasty to temporarily stabilize.

If you lose this battle to the Tatars, it will definitely make the Tatars very angry and will become more eager to invade the border again, and then the nine sides will be in peace.

The guard is extremely important.

Wang Gao’s shortcomings are: if the enemy is strong, he will be vulgar and will not move forward; if the enemy is weak, he will be greedy for merit and advance.

If he attacks this battle, he will definitely lose.

Yan Chengjin stood up and his voice was just right: "I have a word, don't you know if it's right?"

Although I couldn't see people, Li Dongyang knew that it was Yan Chengjin when he heard the words "If you should speak, you should speak."

Emperor Hongzhi's face was as usual: "Yan Qing's family said nothing."

"I think that the Tatars were defeated in Helanshan and dared to come this time, so they must have made sufficient preparations and could not deal with it with unusual means. It would be better to let the Duke of England lead the Beijing camp and have more guarantees."

Among the generals in the capital, Yan Chengjin did not trust any of them. The one he trusted the most was Wang Shouren, but Wang Shouren was a civil servant, not a military general!

The second is Wang Yue. Wang Yue wants to stay in the capital and be a bodyguard for himself. Once he goes to the border, no one will protect himself.

So, Yan Chengjin chose Zhang Mao from the shortest ones.

"How dare the censors advise on military affairs?"

"Do you know that the front line is life-threatening, this is not the time to talk."

The censor of the Censorate usually likes to make a few sentences, and he impeaches him if he has nothing to do, and the Ministry of War has been unhappy for a long time.

Yan Chengjin knew that they were not good at things, and he had just been promoted to censors, but he was not familiar with military books. He was so mean and his words were naturally not valued.

If I were an official from the Ministry of War, I would probably not believe the words of a censor.

Emperor Hongzhi didn't seem to take it seriously: "What do the Ministry of War think?"

"Only one branch of Fire Screen attacks, our Ming Dynasty has the Weiyuan and Datong armies to resist and have an advantage in military strength, so we should be safe!" said Ma Wensheng.

He believed that military suppression was the first element of military strategy.

"Then I will pass on my order. Wang Gao, the general of Weiyuan, was the guerrilla general, Deng Hong was the commander-in-chief, and he brought various troops from Datong to attack the enemy!"

After leaving Fengtian Hall, Wang Yue said to Yan Chengjin: "Wang Gao has always been proud of his achievements and is arrogant. When he was under my account, he was scolded a lot by me. I am afraid that this battle will suffer."

Wang Yue was a general who had experienced many battles, and Wang Gao had been under his tent. He could see that Yan Chengjin was not surprised.

Yan Chengjin was surprised: "Since you know, why didn't you report it to Your Majesty just now?"

Seeing that there was no one around, Wang Yue said: "The Ming Dynasty always ruled the world with civilization. In the previous dynasty, when military officers with the same ranks met civil servants, they would kneel down and bow to the public. Where could the generals speak? If you don't understand, you will know that the Ministry of War is called the Ministry of War, but they are all civil servants."

He is a sloppy man. Knowing that Emperor Hongzhi would not listen to his advice, he simply said nothing.

After leaving the Meridian Gate, the scene in front of Yan Chengjin was shocked.

I saw an old Confucian scholar holding a bamboo stick and chasing Wang Hua to beat him. Wang Shouren couldn't stop him even if he wanted to stop him.

Wang Hua is the emperor's teacher. Who is so brave to beat the emperor's teacher at the Meridian Gate?

This gentleman was very bold and cursed, obviously very angry, but Yan Chengjin was surprised. What happened to Wang Hua that made this old Confucian scholar react so much?

The Jinyiwei was beside him, but none of them went up to help.

Yan Chengjin was just thinking whether to help Wang Hua report to an official.

The old scholar was so angry that he was out of breath: "Kneel down for me!"

"Father, this is the Meridian Gate, I am an official of the Zhan Shi Mansion..." Wang Hua looked embarrassed.

The old scholar was so angry that he knocked on the bamboo stick in his hand: "So what if you become an official! I can't control you as an official? Kneel down!"

There was a tide of discussion around him, and Wang Hua really knelt down with a thud.

"Yun'er and I are not allowed to get up before we leave!"
