The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 270 Sitting and Discussing with Wang Shouren

For Wang Shouren, Xie Shen's emotions are complicated.

On the one hand, he knew that this high-spirited young man would become a famous master of mind in history in the future.But on the other hand, he didn't want Wang Shouren to follow the old path of history.

If Xie Shen's time travel can really bring about some changes, Xie Shen hopes to change Wang Shouren's life trajectory
Not long after, the carriage arrived at the palace.

Xie Shen and Wang Shouren jumped off the carriage one after another and entered the mansion through the main entrance.

After Mr. Wang Hua left the Xu Mansion, he did not go back to the mansion directly but went to the Hanlin Academy.

No way, ordinary people can't imagine the idea of ​​a workaholic, and Xie Shen can't comment too much on his elders.

According to Wang Shouwen, he didn't have time to see Wang Shouren, so he rushed to Xu's mansion directly when he heard the news.

When Xie Shen heard this, a warm feeling rose in his chest.Sure enough, he is a good brother, reliable at critical moments!
Although Wang Shouren traveled around to study, the house in the middle of the capital reserved a small courtyard for him alone, and there were servants to clean it on weekdays.

If Wang Shouwen was replaced with this kind of treatment, he would definitely not be able to enjoy it, which is enough to see the "eccentricity" of Mr. Wang Hua.Of course, this also shows Wang Shouren's outstanding talents and learning from the side.

It stands to reason that Wang Shouren should be resting at the moment, and it is not very appropriate to interrupt.

But Xie Shensheng was afraid that in a few days this dear friend would go on a long-distance trip on a whim, so he had to come here in a hurry.

The two entered the room one after another, seeing Wang Shouren standing in front of the table with his back to them, Xie Shen coughed and said: "Brother Shou, since you are here in the capital this time, let's stay longer."

I am ashamed to say that although Xie Shen and Wang Shouren have a good relationship, they have never had the opportunity to sit down and talk.

Gentlemen sit down and discuss, if you want to have a deep friendship, you must reach an ideological agreement.

For example, Ouyang Xiu, the leader of the literary circle in the Northern Song Dynasty, and Fan Wenzheng became close friends because of their similar political views?
Xie Shen still admires Wang Shouren's mentality, but he has different opinions on some minor issues.

Wang Shouren turned around, surprised to see Xie Shen too.

"Brother Yu has already heard that brother Shenxian, the number one scholar in high school, has been awarded the Imperial Academy by His Majesty himself. He really has a bright future."

This sentence may be a very common compliment when it comes from other people's mouth, but it has a different meaning when it comes from Wang Shouren's mouth.

You must know that although Wang Shouren won the exam in his early twenties, he failed in the general examination one after another, and he passed the third general examination.

But in the time and space Xie Shen lived in, Wang Shouren didn't come to participate in the test at all, and there were still many differences from the details in history.

But no matter what, Wang Shouren can only wait three years if he wants to be a Jinshi.

By that time, Xie Shen might have had enough qualifications to become a lecturer.And if Wang Shouren was lucky enough to barely be able to become a Jinshi and enter the officialdom, there is no need to say much about the gap.

Xie Shen heard the sigh from Wang Shouren's words, so he smiled coyly: "Brother Shouren, you are serious. Who will say what will happen in the future, I just want to have a clear conscience."

The three sat down one after another, gossiping for a while.

Of course, Xie Shen would not ask Wang Shouren the reason for "absenting the exam" out of interest, so he naturally brought the topic to Wang Shouren's study tour route.

He originally thought that Wang Shouren should be traveling in the south of the Yangtze River, but who would have thought that Wang Shouren would say that he returned to Beijing along the Xuanfu and Datong lines.

Xie Shen took a breath.

If he remembered correctly, shouldn't the little prince Baturuk be leading the Tatars to harass Xuanfu Datong?How could Wang Shouren travel to Xuanfu and Datong smoothly?
After Zhu Yuanzhang got the road guide, he had to take the road guide with him when he walked in various places.

If ordinary people run around without leading the way, they will be treated as refugees if they are caught.

Wang Shouren is a juren, so he is half an official and naturally he will not be regarded as a refugee.But the problem is that Wang Shouren is not happy to find him when he travels to important border towns at this time?
As if seeing what Xie Shen was thinking, Wang Shouren said sternly, "Actually, brother Yu planned to go directly to Beijing to take the exam, but when he heard about Hulu Tartar Chen Bingxuan's mansion, he decided to take a look."

I rely on!

Xie Shen almost lost his composure and shouted out.

This Wang Shouren is too capricious.This is a test that takes place every three years. He gave up the big competition just to see how the Ming soldiers fought against the Tartars together?

It is really hard to guess the mind of the saint.
"Shouren brother Gao Yi, Xie admires."

But Wang Shouren waved his hand and said: "Brother Yu thought that the Tatars would besiege the Xuan Mansion, but who would have thought that they would just ride along the Xuan Mansion and loot Datong, and then leave without looking back after looting. "

Xie Shen thought, it's because you don't understand history.

Since the Tumubao Incident, the Tartars in the north have not posed any real threat to Daming.

And the little prince Baturuk is a very strategic person, of course he knows that it is difficult to capture Xuanfu and Datong with his own strength.

And the reason why he still leads the people to leap over the Central Plains is because he wants to put pressure on Daming and show his posture to the people.

In other words, Baturuk's real purpose is to show Daming his fist.

It doesn't matter whether the fist is a flower fist or a steel fist.

"However, it's not completely in vain. Brother Yu killed a Tartar scout outside the Xuan Mansion."

Wang Shouren sighed, clenched his fists and said.

"Brother, are you killing a Tartar scout?"

Wang Shouwen's mouth was as big as a goose egg, apparently unable to believe what the eldest brother said.

Xie Shen was also quite surprised.

Wang Shouren, who has always shown himself as a Confucian scholar, is actually a practicing family.
"It's just a single scout, nothing more."

Wang Shouren waved his hand and said, "When there is a chance, brother Shen Xian can also go to the north for a tour, it is completely different from the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River."

Xie Shen thought to himself, no wonder Wang Shouren came directly to the capital after his travels, it turned out that he came along the Datong-Xuanfu all the way.

"Definitely." Xie Shen smiled and said, "But for now, Xie has to stay in the Imperial Academy honestly, and compiling the "Hui Dian" for the imperial court is also a big event."

Wang Shouren coughed and said, "After the Xuanfu-Datong trip, Brother Yu thought that the Tartars were not as terrible as imagined, but they were by no means like chickens and dogs as some foolish people said. What the court should do is not to hoard heavy troops Xuanfu and Datong, but we need to straighten out our military equipment, train new soldiers, and push the line of defense beyond the Great Wall."

Tsk tsk, unexpectedly Wang Shouren is still a person with dreams.

Push the line of defense beyond the Great Wall?

The cost of repairing the Great Wall alone is enough to bottom out the Ming treasury!
