I, the queen and the father, start with a deer as a horse

Chapter 127 The Shocked Little Empress
Qin Shouyang raised his eyes to look at him, and said leisurely:
"The son is enlightening."

Qin Xingyan stretched out his hand, pointed at him, and said in a trembling voice:
"Don't study, don't take a bath, just stare at a stone, and you can see it for seven days. What kind of enlightenment is this?"

Qin Shouyang slowly spit out four words:

"Investigate things to know."

The voice fell.

Qin Xingyan was stunned.

As a serious Erjia Jidi, a dignified Hubu Shangshu, he naturally knows that he knows everything.

From the sage classics - knowledge is in the investigation of things, and then knowledge is obtained after the investigation of objects.

The sage did not elaborate on this statement.

The vast majority of people in later generations believe that the so-called investigation of things and knowledge means that one must first contact all things in the world before they can comprehend the truth.

but.

Investigating things to gain knowledge, what has it to do with stones!
Qin Xingyan looked at his son and asked, "What does this have to do with knowing things?"

Qin Shouyang said:

"The Great Confucianism said that all things must have a rough surface and a rough surface, and every plant and tree contain the truth"

"My son thought, since every plant and every tree contains the truth, he must be able to learn about it through investigating things and distinguish it."

Qin Xingyan was startled again, and asked: "Which great Confucianist said this? Why haven't you heard of this father?"

Qin Shouyang said: "Guozijian sacrifices wine, Cheng Zhengdao Cheng Daru."

Qin Xingyan's eyes showed anger, he slapped his thigh, and cursed: "So it's this bastard!"

Although Qin Xingyan is not familiar with this Cheng Zhengdao.

But his name is often heard.

because……

This dog often writes articles to ridicule him explicitly and secretly.

I didn't recruit him, I didn't provoke him, and I was scolded for no reason.

Qin Xingyan was very upset.

But thinking that this guy is the Guozijian Jijiu, and his disciples and former officials are all over the place, he finally endured it.

As long as you are not impeached, it is nothing to suffer a few ridicules.

But he didn't expect that his backing down would result in the other party's bullying even worse!
He also turned his mind on his son.

I can't stand it!

"Find an opportunity to beat him up! Let's see if he dares to talk nonsense in the future!"

Qin Xingyan said angrily.

Qin Shouyang: "..."

Qin Xingyan glanced at him, saw that his expression was normal, and sighed:

"Son, you've been coaxed!"

"Every plant and tree are all reasonable. If this is the case, why is he so indifferent?"

Qin Shouyang said: "The investigation of things is my son's own idea, and has nothing to do with Cheng Jijiu."

Qin Xingyan looked at him, with a look of hatred on his face, and said angrily:
"To tell you the truth, the man surnamed Cheng, who holds the identity of the Imperial College Jijiu, has always disdained your father, the traitor of the country, the Fang Party eagle dog.

To teach you these inexplicable things is to use you to disgust dad!
You can't fall into his trap! "

Qin Shouyang still said: "Investigating things to know is the principle left by the sages, and Cheng Jijiu just inspired his son."

When Qin Xingyan heard this, he sighed in his heart.

Instead of continuing to entangle on this issue, he asked instead: "Then you checked for seven days, did you find any reason?"

Qin Shouyang's eyes showed disappointment, and he sighed: "My son is dull, and he only found out a lot of problems."

Qin Xingyan was a little surprised.

"What kind of problem can a stone solve?"

Qin Shouyang looked up at Qin Xingyan, and said seriously:
"for example.
Where did this stone originally come from?
Where did it end up?

What is the difference between it and other stones?

Why is this stone hard and other stones weak?
Why can't the stones be spliced ​​together when they are broken?
Why do stones thrown into the air fall to the ground instead of continuing upward?
Why is the stone this color?

why"

Qin Shouyang actually asked dozens of questions in one breath.

Qin Xingyan was dumbfounded for a while.

It never occurred to him anyway.

Qin Shouyang could find so many problems with a small stone!

There were so many questions, none of which he could answer.

"Could it be... is he really investigating things?"

At this moment, Qin Xingyan fell into deep thought, and asked after a while:
"To be clear, what is the relationship between these questions and the study of things?"

Qin Shouyang said: "In my son's view, the so-called study of things to gain knowledge means that one must thoroughly study the principles of things before one can comprehend the truth.

In other words, only by discovering the problem can we solve the problem and understand the reason”

After a pause, he continued:

"Father, to be honest, my son has drawn bamboo, sun and moon, stars, tables and chairs, benches and stones in the past six months.
For the rest of his life, his son wants to do everything he can to make everything under heaven.

When my son is old, maybe he will be able to write a book about Gewu's experience.

The name of the book, my son has already thought about it, it is called "Physics", which means, the truth of everything in the world! "

For a moment, Qin Xingyan was speechless.

then.

Du Chen'an's words could not help ringing in his ears.

"For such children, we still have to beat them. If you beat them too much, it will be normal. Stop thinking about those messy things and just focus on the imperial examination."

"At this point, if you say it's useless, you have to fight!"

Qin Xingyan's vicissitudes of face showed firmness, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

He picked up a wooden stick from the ground, aimed at his son, and said sternly:
"No object!"

"Zaigewu! Daddy beats you!"

When Qin Shouyang heard this, he suddenly stopped talking.

A pair of eyes looked at Qin Xingyan, a little dull, exactly the same as when he was just picking the stone.

"."

Qin Xingyan's heart skipped a beat, his mouth trembled, and he asked, "What are you doing again?"

Qin Shouyang had a serious face, and said sternly, "Father has Tao in him, and my son is enlightening to Tao."

this moment.

Qin Xingyan actually felt his hair stand on end, and instantly understood the feelings of the oiran.

"This is really scary!"

He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said:
"Don't think that Dad dares not hit you, if you continue to investigate things, Dad will definitely hit you, and you don't even know who beat you!"

Qin Shouyang didn't speak, but still looked blankly at Qin Xingyan.

Seeing this, Qin Xingyan finally couldn't bear it anymore, took the wooden stick in his hand, raised it high, and was about to smash it down.

At the last moment, it stopped again.

After all, I am old enough to have a child, I can't bear it!
Qin Xingyan looked at him with a cold heart.

With tears in her eyes, she begged:

"Shouyang, father, I beg you, listen to what father says, be careful, do more homework, and take the imperial examination next year."

Qin Shouyang still didn't speak.

then.

Qin Xingyan shed old tears.

"Shouyang."

see this scene.

Qin Shouyang finally stopped being in a daze like before.

The eyes regained clarity.

He sighed leisurely and said:

"If the son wins the exam, the father can no longer stop the son from Gewu."

Qin Xingyan was startled when he heard this, and then his old face showed excitement.

His voice trembled with excitement.

"Father promises you! As long as you win the exam, you can do whatever you want, and father will never interfere!"

Qin Shouyang pondered for a moment, nodded, and said:
"The son will be successful in the coming year."

Qin Xingyan was very happy when he heard this, but he still said: "Son, Zhongju is not as easy as you think. I have studied hard for ten years before I will start."

Qin Shouyang was noncommittal, but said, "My son wants to read."

Qin Xingyan saw that he really didn't care about things anymore, and didn't bother to worry about these details, so he nodded excitedly.

"Okay! From now on, Dad's study is yours!"

After finishing speaking, he looked outside the door and ordered loudly:

"Come here, take the young master to the study!"

Immediately afterwards, the servants guarding the door came in and led Qin Shouyang, who was wearing a gray gown, into the study.

"Father is obsessed with imperial examinations. If I don't take part, he will think about it for the rest of his life."

"In this case, I will take part in an imperial examination, win one of the candidates, and gag his mouth."

"It's not too late to check things after winning the lift"

Think of this.

Qin Shouyang sighed in his heart, looked at the stone in his hand, let out a foul breath, and said slowly in a firm tone:
"Everything in the world contains truth. I hope I can count it in my lifetime."

The voice fell.

He sat at the desk and was about to look through the classics of scientific research when he suddenly found several new books that he had never heard of before.

"Hey, touch your head"

"Life can be repeated"

"University Questions"

For the first two books, just looking at the titles, I feel that there is no value in reading them.

The latter one is rather interesting.

university question.
Is it the author's opinion on "University"?

With some curiosity.

Qin Shouyang turned to the first page.

Asked: "In the "Great Learning", Confucianism in the past thought that the learning of adults is the learning of adults. Dare to ask why the learning of adults lies in Mingming?"

"It really is about "University"."

Qin Shouyang thought about it, hesitated for a moment, and continued to read.

look at.

His expression changed.

From the initial indifference, to the later trance, and finally to the final shock.

After half an hour.

He looked at the "University Questions" in his hand and fell into deep thinking.

After a long time, he let out a mouthful of foul air and muttered to himself:
"Yang Mingzi is such a sage, why have I never heard of it before?"

at this time.

The door of the study was pushed open.

Standing there with a blank sheet of paper in his hand, the steward was startled when he saw Qin Shouyang, then wrinkled his nose, held his breath, and called out, "Second Young Master!"

Qin Shouyang looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

The steward held up the white paper in his hand and replied: "Master Fang gave some books to the master, and the younger one asked someone to write this picture and posted it on the bookshelf."

Qin Shouyang looked at the white paper in his hand.

There are a few big characters written on it flying like a flying phoenix - Fang Xiang gifted the book.

The corner of his mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything. He asked, "Which books?"

The steward pointed to Qin Shouyang's face, and said, "Those are the books."

Qin Shouyang was slightly taken aback, his eyes showed disbelief, and he muttered to himself:
"Could it be that Yangming is the prime minister's alias?"

Thinking of this, he fell silent.

After a long time, I just came back to my senses, stopped thinking about it, and said slowly:
"Don't put this book on the shelf yet, I want to copy it."

The steward hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Understood."

Qin Shouyang glanced at him and said lightly, "Go down."

"Yes!"

The steward turned and left.

Qin Shouyang dipped his pen in the ink, and with a serious face, he copied "University Questions" carefully word by word.
In the Qin residence, Qin Shouyang transcribed it all night, hoping to learn more truths from it.

in the palace.

Wu Mingkong is also enlightening.

Her beautiful eyes stared forward blankly, and what Shang Gong said kept echoing in her ears.

"Some people are like this, the more you hit him, the more excited he gets, and the more you scold him, the more excited he gets.

There are also some people, on the contrary, the more they hit someone, the more excited they become, and the more they curse, the more excited they become.

Folk people often take pleasure in this and put it on the bed.
In this process, some tools are often used.

such as a whip
like candles"

Although already mentally prepared.

But listened to Shang Gong with his own ears.

The little empress was still shocked.

"It turns out that there really are such people in the world, and... listening to Shang Gong's suggestion, there seem to be quite a few people who take pleasure in it."

"I just don't know if the traitor Fang Xiu belongs to the former, or the latter, or both."

"If it's justified, and he wants me to take a whip and beat him hard, will I agree, or not?"

this moment.

The little empress fell into deep thought.

Behind her, Lin Wan'er saw this, and her delicate face once again showed the expression of "all slaves understand".

Heart said: "It is estimated that in a few days, I will prepare a whip for His Majesty."

Wu Mingkong and Lin Wan'er, one master and one servant, both had their own concerns and didn't speak.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation was quiet.

at this time.

There was a sound of footsteps outside.

A court lady stood outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation and said loudly:
"I have something important to do, please see Your Majesty!"

The little empress woke up from her trance, looked outside, and said calmly:
"allow!"

next second.

The palace maid held a piece of letter paper in her hand, walked up to the little empress, presented it with both hands, and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty! Urgent information from Yongzhou!"

The little empress was slightly taken aback, her heart skipped a beat, she became nervous, and asked:
"But the state of Zhou has invaded again?"

The maid shook her head and said, "No."

The little empress asked again: "What's the matter?"

The maid said: "The message to His Majesty is about the information about the Zhou Kingdom Mission."

"The Zhou Guo Mission... actually found out!"

The little empress looked at the letter paper in the hand of the maid, and suddenly remembered what Fang Xiu had said before, and her eyes showed curiosity.

"I'd like to see if the purpose of the Zhou Guo mission is really what the traitor said, to win him over!"

"Bring it up!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

The maid presented the information with both hands.

Lin Wan'er reached out to take it and handed it over to the little empress.

After the little empress opened it, she browsed from top to bottom.

After only watching for a while, her expression suddenly changed.

Eyes wide open, mouth slightly open, with an expression of disbelief, he muttered to himself:

"It's true."
