Ming Diary

Chapter 72: Night Chat 1

"All right! The meal is ready. Please send it to Lord Wang while it's still hot. He said with a smile, put the last plate into the basket, closed the lid, and handed it to Cao Muwen.

Cao Muwen also finished his last mouthful of rice at this time, put down his rice bowl, took it and thanked him, and left.

Walking on the corridor, I still encountered several chores in the house on the way. After greeting, I went straight to the courtyard where Wang Shouren lived. He walked to the door and looked at the bright lights inside and a lot of lights. It looked like he was looking at something.

Cao Muwen knocked on the door, and there was a sound of "enter." Cao Muwen opened the door and went in.

After turning the entrance, through several open curtains, he saw a huge sandalwood table. Wang Shouren sat behind him and was concentrating on what he was looking at. Cao Muwen walked over gently. Wang Shouren looked up and said, "I didn't expect it to be you!"

"I'm here to deliver meals for the cook. You can also take a rest. Don't work too hard. This morning, I went out to the barracks. I haven't had a rest since I arrived there. Up to now, you have read these documents again without even eating.

Wang Shouren laughed loudly and said, "Haha, there is no! When it comes to fatigue, what are you doing now? Thinking of my sleepless meditation for three days and three nights ten years ago, these days are nothing at all. It's you. I asked you to have a rest. Why did you come here to bring me food?

"I'm just here to see the adults. There's nothing else." Cao Muwen replied and put the food basket on a garden table beside him. Opening the lid, Cao Muwen said, "Your Excellency, there is still a pot of wine in it. Please take a rest first and prepare for dinner. You don't miss the wood cutter by sharpening the knife. You have eaten, and you are naturally very good at dealing with things, aren't you?

Wang Shouren laughed softly and said, "Haha, well, it's up to you. I'm almost done." After saying that, Cao Muwen had to set up the plate first. Ha ha, it seemed that the cook had made a lot of dishes and looked very rich. Fortunately, the dining table is still large, so most of the tables are arranged. Cao Muwen looked at the pen while placing the plate.

Before that, Wang Shouren finally stopped writing and completed his masterpiece. Putting down the pen, he walked to the table with great interest and looked at the dishes on the table, which was a little surprised. Asked, "What's going on? Why did this cook make so many dishes? It's a waste." Cao Muwen doesn't know if Wang Shouren has a sense of guilt for many people around him who rebel because they can't eat, but as a court official... Is there a sense of guilt in such luxury? If you want to say rich, maybe. But it's really not worth mentioning compared with those luxurious corrupt officials.

Cao Muwen echoed, "Your Excellency, maybe the cook has seen you work so hard these days. It's rare to come back earlier today, and he may not be too hungry, so the cook has more time to prepare dinner, so let's do more for this."

"Oh...that's it." Wang Shouren stared at the table and said, "Oh, you haven't eaten yet. Come on, let's eat together." After Wang Shouren said that, he pulled two stools and put them at both ends. Cao Muwen looked a little stunned.

Wang Shouren is naturally close, and then said, "I have been busy thinking about something these days, especially after thinking about my name for more than ten days and searching for a lot of books, but I have gained something. Wang Shouren said this and looked a little complacent. In this way, Cao Muwen's curiosity was also aroused, and he asked curiously, "What is the adult saying? It seems to be so mysterious. I don't know what it is?"

Wang Shouren's words suddenly turned around, frowned, and said while thinking about it, "If it is really a way to protect the people. If this method can be done, the troubled times that have been going on these provinces for so many years may really calm down. If there is some arrogant saying, if this law is properly implemented, it may be preserved for a hundred years. Cao Muwen was even more curious when he heard this, "I don't know what's wrong with Wang Shouren's box. Why did it suddenly come out like this?" Cao Muwen is very curious. Wang Shouren has indeed not only created "heart learning" in history, but also made great achievements in governance. Since Cao Muwen knew this historical fact, he calmed down, but he didn't know what the law of protecting the people was that Wang Shouren thought of? First, he stabilized his body and mind without leaking his face, but his face looked slightly worried and asked, "Your excellency, you are the governor of southern Jiangxi, and naturally you are the imperial official. Naturally, the daily dealings are military affairs. Although I have met with you every day and often accompany you these days, but..." Cao Muwen said here, and the words gradually slowed down, revealing the worries pretending in his heart naturally, saying, "I'm just a servant, your great How can you reveal it to me? Naturally, I shouldn't know more about this... So, you'd better not say..."

At this point, Wang Shouren suddenly laughed, and his voice was so angry that he almost scared Cao Muwen from the chair to the ground. Cao Muwen's mouth was slightly open and he didn't know what to do.

Wang Shouren laughed loudly, "You are really interesting and good." Wang Shouren picked up the glass and took a sip, and then said, "You are thoughtful, but what you think is really thoughtful. But this box is a little over-concerned.

"What?" Cao Muwen became curious again and asked, "Your Excellency, what does this mean?"

"Don't be restrained. Let's talk while eating now. Naturally, there are no governors or attendants here. Children don't have to be as good as teachers, and teachers don't have to be virtuous and disciples. Today, I changed it to, 'The governor doesn't have to be higher than the servant, you servant... Naturally, there is nothing to feel inferior.' Wang Shouren said and drank another cup. Cao Muwen looked at Daqi. It seemed that he was in a good mood now, but when he looked at the people in those pubs in the afternoon, he had shown clues. Cao Muwen watched him talk to the people from that time...

"It seems that he talked to those people this afternoon and didn't know what the truth was. Seeing that he returned to the house, he spent me and couldn't stay out when he returned to the room alone. I guess that's the reason." Cao Muwen thought in his heart and looked at the slightly drunken man opposite who poured a glass of wine into his mouth. My lord... You'd better drink less. You have to go to work tomorrow. There are still many things for you to do. It's better to drink less." Cao Muwen advised.

"Okay, I won't drink anymore. Let's talk about the right thing." Wang Shouren said happily.

"Okay, since the adults want to talk, it's hard to sit down."

" Sit down quickly." Wang Shouren raised his hand and pointed to the round stool beside Cao Muwen.

Cao Muwen picked up the glass and said, "Then the humble job will drink the next cup first. After saying that, he drank it all. Wang Shouren shouted softly, "Okay!"

Cao Muwen put down his glass and swung his lips. Isn't it good?! When it comes to drinking, this is the only place where Cao Muwen can play Wang Shouren. He is still very confident in this regard, although... he is a little like an alcoholic.

Wang Shouren opened the chat box at this time, "Mu Wenna, you are also a person who has spent some books. Do you know a famous Luo Qinshun?"

Luo Qinshun? Cao Muwen tried his best to recall this man's name. Um... The name sounds very nice, and it seems to be a famous person, but... Cao Muwen's brain is not a hard disk, and it can be seen with a call back.

Luo Qinshun...Luo Qin...what! I remember it! Cao Muwen suddenly paused and suddenly remembered this person. Wang Shouren had been looking at Cao Muwen just now, and it seemed that he had found his abnormality.

Wang Shouren smiled slightly, "So, you have remembered that you seem to know this person."

Cao Muwen nodded. This person, Luo Qinshun, naturally knows him. It's just that this acquaintance is the same as Wang Shouren's acquaintance in the book. It's just that Wang Shouren not only knows each other, but also has seen and lived together for a period of time, but this Luo Qinshun has never met. This person... Cao Muwen thought, how did he have contact with Wang Shouren? It's really interesting... Cao Muwen carefully recalled the memory in his mind that he had almost forgotten. This person should be about the same age as Wang Shouren, but he lived a long life. He lived more than 20 years more than the one opposite him and lived until the middle of Jiajing.

Luo Qinshun, courtesy name Yunsheng, nicknamed whole nunnery, Taiheren. Hongzhi was a scholar for six years, taught editing, and moved to Nanjing Guozi Supervision Department. In Zhengde, Liu Jin was angry and took office for the people. Jin was killed, reinstating, and moved to the right servant of the Ministry of Officials. Shizong ascended the throne, turned to the left servant, and ordered to take the calligraphy before and after. In April of the first year of Jiajing, he moved to the Ministry of Li in Nanjing, and in March of the second year of Jiajing, he changed to the Ministry of Ceremonies. Soon Dingyou returned home. At that time, when the "big ceremony" was discussed, Zhang Cong and Gui Qian suddenly became expensive with a piece of paper, upholding the party and chasing upright people. He was ashamed and listed with him. Therefore, in February of the sixth year of Jia's six years, he was removed from the restoration official, and in May, he moved to the Ministry of Officials, all of which did not resign. On the 6th day of July of the same year, Emperor Shizong allowed him to serve, and there was a division to give Lumi Rushi. Liju has been devoting himself to the study of knowledge, focusing on reason, mind and intellectuality. At that time, Wang Shouren learned and taught with his heart, and followed it from the north and south of the Yangtze River. He didn't think so and tried to explore the relationship between knowledge and objects with Shouren. He believes that "through heaven and earth, ancient and modern, nothing more than one breath." Jiajing died on April 24, 2323. To the crown prince Taibao, Fu Wenzhuang. Luo Qinshun has successively held the positions of Nanjing Guozi Supervisor, Taichangqing, Right Shilang of the Ministry of Li, Shangshu of the Ministry of Li and other positions.
