Lu Jiuyuan's non-kitsch "crazy" text "strange" letter - "Seeing the Letter"

author:It is grounded in the sky and the sea

There is no family policy, hometown Wu Taihe.

Longzhou shashi jian, fast pavilion water and clouds.

The field house is tired, and the years of the jianghu are grinding.

Mao Chai had a glass of wine, relatively worried.

This poem is from the Song Dynasty Liu Guo's "Que Jing Chu Jin Na Chang'an Phase Value in the Western Quarrying Dialect and Family Causes and Confrontations", vividly and realistically reflecting the difficulties of the two Song Dynasties.

Partial Lu Jiuyuan was born in that era, and the master of psychology who was tired of the imperial examination was born!

In the thirty-second year of Shaoxing (1162), Lu Jiuyuan was already a twenty-four-year-old youth.

According to the age of the nails, this year is "Noon". In the Southern Song Dynasty, Fengzi, 卯, Noon, and Unitary were the years of the "township test". In feudal society, there was no other way for scholars to enter the ranks, only to pass the imperial examination, "learn to become a literary and martial art, and the goods and the imperial family" were passed. Did Lu Jiuyuan participate in the "township examination"? This is his second most important life choice.

In ancient times, it was also called "election". Since the establishment of the imperial examination system during the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui, it has been inherited from generation to generation and has been completed one by one. It should be said that this kind of measure has had its progressive side in history for the selection of talents, especially during the political Development and Ming period of various dynasties. The famous Gong Hongru and the Qing officials and ministers are all derived from this. However, the selfishness of the concept of the door, the involvement of high-ranking officials and nobles, and the drawbacks are repeated; the articles of the examination are all sage classics, the scope is narrow, the thinking is bound, and even become empty talk embellished with peace, the official articles of general discussion, and the tricks; plus one person wins the official, the chicken dog ascends to heaven, and the examination becomes a "stepping stone" for fame and fortune. Some candidates, busy all their lives, are poor in their heads, lose their bones, and do not get a meritorious name, so they have to complain about the fate of the world, and the examination complex is difficult to fill, so that they die under the forest. Entering the grave, still dreaming of "fame and glory", the "soul" is difficult to rest. Influence the next generation of descendants to repeat this. The long-term backwardness of China's feudal society is also related to the "imperial examination". This "strange circle", I don't know how many unjust souls have been buried!

Lu Jiuyuan's non-kitsch "crazy" text "strange" letter - "Seeing the Letter"

"In the early Song Dynasty, the Tang system was inherited, and although the tribute was extensive, it was more important than the jinshi system. The second is the three-choice supplement. Although there are many methods of quan, it is more important than raising systems and reforming officials, grinding and surveying and changing ranks. "Later, the mutation changed and was not very stable.

The Southern Song Dynasty formed three levels of examinations: township examination, provincial examination, and temple examination. Subjects vary, and from time to time there are additions and subtractions: "Take the scholar to literature and art, but not with virtue, but consider it in terms of literature and art; the glitz of the theory of endowment is not as good as the practical study of scripture." "Generally speaking, there are three disciplines: scripture, poetry, and strategy." Gao Zongli Erudite Macroscience. The twelve questions: Making the Commandments, Commandments, Dew Cloth, 檄, Proverbs, and Praises, are mixed with six questions in the hymn sequence, which are divided into three sessions, and each system is ancient and modern. ”

During the Two Song Dynasties, the atmosphere was corrupt, and a kind of "roll-in" was prevalent, that is, relying on the "public recommendation" of powerful officials. Examiners favoritism, teachers and students form a party, and they become public nuisances. Although Zhao Kuangyin and his heirs have successively adopted many measures, so that they have stipulated: Candidates are not allowed to "cast papers," are not allowed to "make public recommendations," are not allowed to set up a "door," are not allowed to call the chief examiner a "benevolent teacher," call themselves "protégés," and so on, the drawbacks of the imperial examination have increased unabated, and they have become a "noose" that imprisons the soul and a "hidden danger" in the trading of power and money. However, there is only one channel for the service country, or it is only hidden and dead. At that time, the taxis who were difficult to choose between retreat and retreat called the examination "the tiredness of the field house".

Twenty-four-year-old Lu Zijing is not interested in "gongming". He immersed himself in learning, traveling in and out of the three great wisdom gates of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, with a higher vision and a wider range of ideas! He was bent on inheriting the Taoist system, not to plant the banner of philosophy, and to find a green shade to save the souls of the people. He despises the withering wind of social kitsch; he is not afraid of the views of the scholars; fame and fortune are the things he despises from the depths of his heart. Spiritual torture made him transcendent; spiritual adventures awaited him. Those thieves and vulgar people mistakenly believe that he is "crazy" and "weird", a "nerd" who has read too much!

He was indifferent to the three-year examination; he dismissed the "Cheng Wen" of the official-like article; occasionally he looked at it, which was made for his father to see. He made friends with monks, Taoists, hermits, hundreds of workers, farmers, and pulp sellers, talked about the Tao, drew wisdom from the commoners at the bottom of society, and enriched their studies. Even more worrying, he is not superstitious about authority. The "Six Classics" were his footnotes; Confucius, Youruo, Zigong, Cheng Yi, and Some of the wrong remarks of Mr. Zhu Xi, one of the "Three Sages of southeast China" at that time, were the objects of his manipulation. His thoughts are like wild horses, galloping in the six, searching up and down; his language is often transgressive and shocking.

Lu Jiuyuan's non-kitsch "crazy" text "strange" letter - "Seeing the Letter"

He said: "Everything depends only on its reason, not on who it is." "In the Southern Song Dynasty, where thought was extremely imprisoned, who dared to deny the authority of the sages, there was only a madman like Lu Zijing, a strange person!

Mr. Daoqing saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. Does this have to be done? The Lu family's old house was so easy to produce a prodigy, was it "Fang Zhongyong"? Already has an old fourth, is the sixth old going to be a hermit again? Zi Jing did not take the "right path" of the imperial examination, was confused by heresy and heresy, deviated from the scriptures, and became a "madman and a strange person". The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, the Son did not teach, the Father's fault!

Lu He called out to the old fourth and nine Shao, and the old five and nine years old discussed major events together, as if the future of his son all depended on the arrangements of his father and brother.

Lu Jiushao was idle by nature, and he knew very well the aspirations of the sixth disciple Jing, and gently persuaded: "Everyone has their own aspirations. Zi Jing's vast atmosphere is not limited by the world. Please rest assured that he will not take the road of examination and can become a talent.

Lu He shouted, "Nonsense! ”

Jiu Shao said, "Bao Er is telling the truth." Although the imperial examination is the right way, there are also those who are trapped in the sea and cannot extricate themselves. Far from it, let's just say that it is close, Shaoxing second year nonzike, Emperor Gaozong personally pointed out Mr. Zhang Jiucheng, his Golden Temple countermeasure article is very well written! The female lyricist Li Qing took care of the article and praised him in a poem: "Dew flower reflection willow three changes, night gui fluttering fragrance Zhang Jiucheng." Yi Anjushi brought Zhang Jiucheng alongside The Northern Song Dynasty talent Liu Yong. The result? He offended Qin Juniper for his affair, demoted his officials and exiled him, lived in Baoguo Temple in Nan'an County, Jiangnan Province, for fourteen years, and from Zong Gao Zen Master Tour, converted to Buddhism, and became a crane in the clouds. Speaking of a Xinzhou Yushan man Wang Yingchen, eighteen years old in the Yi Ji Ke High School, the young dezhi, Kui Jia Tianxia, also because of his integrity, offended Qin Juniper, he himself suffered and even his family members, the result is even more tragic ..."

Lu He was very unhappy and intercepted his words: "Count it out." As you see it, it is the gate of hell. When you say this in front of Zi Jing, the more he listens, the more he becomes confused! ”

Lu Jiuyuan's non-kitsch "crazy" text "strange" letter - "Seeing the Letter"

Lu Jiuling did not think so, he said: "Father, the child thinks that the career is difficult, and it does not stop the boy's heart to serve the country. Whether a person can become a saint or not depends on whether he can enrich himself with moral cultivation; whether an official can exert himself to govern with vigor depends on whether he can adapt to the needs of the imperial court and make political achievements. The eunuch sea is floating and sinking, and it is difficult to be auspicious, but people with lofty ideals should not be discouraged. Let's say that this dynasty also has loyal and favored.

In the twenty-seventh year of Shaoxing, Wang Shipeng of Wenzhou Yueqing, Geng Zhi dared to speak out, urged Emperor Gaozong to be pro-xian and far from adulterous, and pointed directly at the scourge of Qin Jun, and even won the trust of the emperor and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. The country is in the autumn of many events, and the descendants of the Lu clan must have the ambition to be in the world, regardless of personal safety. The examination is the step of advancement, what should not be examined by Confucians? Serve the country and save the people, the Guangzong Yaozu, the national soldiers are not out of the right clan of our jiangsu, shouldn't we sit and wait for the barbarians to bully and slaughter? ”

The passionate and generous words made Lu He excited and asked busily: "Zi Jing's future, what do you think?"

Lu Jiuling did not hurry to say the person, surnamed Li, name Hao, also known as Mr. Orange Garden, Linchuan people, Shaoxing twelve years into the soldier. He was well learned, worked as a servant of the bureaucracy, had a high level of style, and was well-cultivated. Now living in Fuzhou to await his post, Jiu Ling said, "Li Shilang is very familiar with Keju and Cheng Wen, and I heard him lecture when I was in The County. He treated me kindly. I might as well choose a day, my sixth brother and I went to visit Mr. Orangery, how? ”

Lu He was overjoyed: "So good." Huan Zhi also went with him. ”

Jiu Shao didn't want to interject again, and smiled easily.

After Jiuyuan knew his father and brother's decision, he couldn't figure it out at first. He believed that Brother Six-Nine's words were exactly in line with his wishes, and Brother Seven-Nine's ideas were not clever. Although it is rumored that Mr. Orangery is both good in character and learning, gengsuke, nicknamed "Li Zhi said," But to throw a long stab and pray to him, isn't this just "throwing a scroll" and building a "division gate" in an attempt to "recommend it"? Such a kitsch behavior, how can he Zi jing do it? Jiu Shao advised him: "The father's order is difficult to violate. I have retired to the mountains and forests, but I can avoid the mundane; you are prosperous, and your father hopes that his son will become a dragon, so you will never be kitsch. ”

Jiuyuan could not sleep at night for this matter. How can we not disobey our fathers and are not kitsch? The only way to get it all is: the first time you visit a celebrity or elder, you generally have to carry a generous gift. He himself decided not to follow this cliché and wrote only a short essay as "Book of Seeing". How about casting? Mr. Orangery read the book of whether he was happy or angry, or kissed or rejected, and he did not think about it. So he sat at night with a lamp and wrote a book:

"The scholar of the ancients, the view of a gentleman." It is not because of its position that you can be noble, not because of the victory of jiluyi, you can benefit yourself, not because of its magic and speed of the art can be taught, but people are suitable. Later generations will do the opposite. Whoever has servants to others will also be in the land of great power; otherwise, he who will be the winner of Jilu will also be the winner; otherwise, he who will be the magician of magic and speed will also be. It is not the three, although the gentleman has no opinion. There is not the act of the three, but the obedience of the gentleman will be with the crowd and the Yayu (Noah) will be mad and strange.

A certain student studied at the age of seven, thirteen zhi ancient learning, and now there are four in the twenties. And the thorn did not try to throw a shot, but drew the door of his excellency, and the people thought it was crazy and strange. However, if you are willing to commit it, you can only masturbate with the ears of the ancients. It is advisable for you to teach and advance. (Lu Ji, p. 46)

This is a "crazy" article and a "strange" letter, which was rare in the Southern Song Dynasty society at that time. The ancient scholar, who only sincerely meets people with moral learning, is not trying to improve himself with his magnificent and prominent position, nor is it because he has a wealth of money to give to himself, let alone covet what ways he has and what tricks he can tell himself. Anxious and in a hurry to meet an official figure, he did not seek fame, nor did he seek profit, nor did he seek mental skills, so what did he do? At the age of seven, Lu Jiuyuan, who had never thrown his business card at the age of twenty-four, satirized the inflammatory tendencies of the vulgar with spicy words, and regarded himself as a madman and a strange person, not afraid of the ridicule and ridicule of everyone.

Lu Jiuyuan's non-kitsch "crazy" text "strange" letter - "Seeing the Letter"

On the second day, he handed over the "Book of Seeing" to his father and brother. Lu He was shocked at first sight, was this written by his son? It's so bad! How can it be written like this? A moment of anger on his face, half-silent, walking around... The early spring weather made the old man shiver all over: "You, you are too abrupt!" Is this like a book? ...... rewrite! Zi Jing said, "If you want to rewrite it, I won't go." Lu He narrowed his eyes, "You? Tell me about it. Jiu Ling also felt in his heart that his brother did not understand politeness, but he also appreciated Zi Jing's writing and courage. He knew that The sixth elder had his own opinions since he was a child, and he was not swayed by anyone, so he hurriedly said to his father: "Li Shilang is a famous man, high wind and bright festival. My brother's letter may be favored by him! Jiu Shao admired his brother's moral integrity from his heart, and he also said: "This letter is a rare strange text in ancient and modern times. The article did not hurt Li Shilang, only talking about his own ambition, on the contrary, it also affirmed that Mr. Orangery was an upright scholar with moral learning. Jiu Shao and Jiu Ling said this, and Old Mr. Lu He was discouraged, so he obeyed his son but insisted on backing up the gift. Brother Liujiu and Qiqi also advised Zijing to be with the light, and Zijing acquiesced. Father and son gave in to each other and successfully realized the "trip to Linchuan".

Li Shilang knew that Lu Jiuling had an outstanding younger brother, and he was extremely happy to meet him, and he examined Liang Jiu for a long time: "The Yushu linfeng is worthy of the name." The theory of the universe and my heart is a creative idea! Lu Jiuling asked in surprise, "How did Mr. Orangery know?" Li Hao said, "Xu Xin sued me. Jiu Ling said, "Is Mr. Xu okay?" Li Hao said, "Alas! It's a long story. He offended the emperor because he was in the bureaucracy and disagreed with the emperor, and he lived in Fuzhou for many years. Recently, the imperial court recalled and sent him to Shaoyang as a prefect, but he did not expect to fall ill as soon as he took office.

The Lu family brothers and nephews were dejected. Everyone observed a moment of silence for Mr. Xu Xin.

After Lu Jiuling explained his intentions, Jiu Yuan took out the "Book of Seeing" and presented it to Mr. Orange Garden. Li Hao received the letter, read it carefully, and was surprised in his heart: "Good! Throw long thorns and ask for nothing, worship adults without kitsch, and the wind of a gentleman also! Let me ask you: Are you a Boyi who will advance by ruling and retreating from chaos? Or is it Yi Yin, who is also in turmoil? ”

Zi Jing said, "In the late life, there was no Bo Yi Zhi Jie, nor did he have the talent of Yi Yin." It can be stopped, it can be stopped, it can be long and long, and it can be fast and fast. ”

Li Hao said: "If this is the case, why are you not interested in the imperial examination?" ”

Zi Jing said to him again: "When it comes to the affairs of the world, it must be the tiredness of no house, no idea of wealth and nobility, but really go to the peaceful residence to do research, study and verify) The people who control chaos in the world and gain and lose in ancient and modern times can be regarded as having the strength to serve the country!" (Lu Ji, p. 88)

Upon hearing this, Mr. Orangery was amazed: "Well, high opinion! After saying that, he turned to Lu Huanzhi, who was standing with his hand hanging down: "What does Xiao Xianggong think?" ”

Huan Zhi arched his hand, "Don't use the proper method to steal the rich, the disciple thinks it is evil; don't use the thrifty method to get rid of poverty, the disciple is ashamed!" ”

Mr. Orangery laughed, "You're a nephew, aren't you?" The three generations of the Lu family have morality, respectability and respectability

Jiu Ling said busily, "Brother She's nephew is young, he doesn't know how serious he is, and he still looks at Haihan." My father sent me to the door, one was to seek advice, the second was cheng wen's model, and the third was to choose a book. ”

Mr. Orange Garden said, "Mr. Daoqing is so sincere, the subordinate officials dare not try their best." Today, the new Tianzi is preparing to ascend to the throne, opening up the road of speech, Guangluo Caiyan, and zhongxing great Song Wangye, which is the autumn of serving the country. Uncle Er's nephew is so handsome, why worry about no merit? As far as I know, Cheng Wenduo takes the ZTE way as the key, but it should not be too involved and fought, and it should be remembered. As for the Kyoto annotated books and poets, there are many candidates, but the Zhou Li section is short of people to register. Er, wait for self-mastery. After saying that, he immediately took out dozens of Cheng Wen's models for speculation; and elaborated on the way to select talents today, the bamboo curtain in the examination field, the shortcomings of personnel, and so on, all in detail.

Jiu Ling thanked Mr. For his guidance and took Zi Jing and Huan Zhi home to restore his life to his father. Since then, the Huai Tang has been burning the anointing and burning the sun, all night long. The brothers and nephews attacked Zhou Li and were familiar with Cheng Wen, making solid preparations for the examination. From time to time, Mr. Daoqing personally instructed his children and grandchildren. Although Jiu Shao was said to be a hermit of Suoshan Mountain, he did not have the heart to do fame, but he had to go down the mountain often at the behest of his father, preach the scriptures in the Huai Hall, and do some counseling work.

The tiredness of the field house, can Lu Jiuyuan be spared?
