Someone once said that the most effective things in this world are nothing more than two things, knife and money.

Jiang Xia successfully walked through the special passage through a dagger and got the golden position in the middle of the second row.

Li Dongyang has already started his lecture on the stage, and today he is the main lecture on "The University".

During the imperial examination, "The Great Learning" is one of the necessary contents. However, the reason why Li Dongyang talked about "The Great Learning" was not to tell these scholars how to use the Great Learning to write a good article, but to talk about the three principles of clear virtue, closeness to the people, and to the ultimate good.

The eight items proposed in "The Great Learning" are about investigating things, seeking knowledge, sincerity, uprightness of the heart, self-cultivation, managing the family, governing the country, and pacifying the world. Through Li Dongyang's narration, everything is so in-depth and easy-to-understand that makes people feel a sudden realization when they hear it.

When scholars study, they do not seek much understanding because of the eight-legged essay. Perhaps most of the people who come here to listen to the lectures can memorize the "Great Learning", but there are probably very few people who truly understand the profound philosophy of life contained in it.

Jiang Xia sat in the audience and watched Li Dongyang talking, and seemed to feel in her mind that she was back to the scene when she was listening to Li Dongyang’s lecture at Xiaoyao Villa.

It hasn't been seen for a while, and Li Dongyang seems to have not changed much.

Without the worries of state affairs and the struggles of court, it seems that Li Dongyang has not only not grown old, but has become younger.

In the Ming Dynasty, when it comes to Li Dongyang's status, he can definitely rank in the top three in both the literary world and the court.

And such a person would be willing to pretend to be a study master and approach a brothel boss for the court, and be willing to become a master, and ignore worldly ridicule and criticism.

For Jiang Xia, if he wanted to count his relatives in the Ming Dynasty, Li Dongyang would definitely be one of them.

It took about an hour for Li Dongyang to finish his lecture. He glanced at the audience. When he saw Jiang Xia and Zhu Houzhao, Li Dongyang was slightly shocked, and then looked at Jiang Xia with a slight reproach.

The meaning of this look was obviously to blame him for taking the emperor out of the palace for adventure.

Jiang Xia smiled and grabbed the back of her head, spread her hands out and made a helpless expression, meaning that she was forced, and it was all Zhu Houzhao who wanted to come out.

Li Dongyang smiled slightly, as if the old man smiled knowingly when he saw his descendants being naughty and disagreeing.

Li Dongyang asked, "This is the end of today's lecture. I wonder if you have anything else to ask about."

Then several scholars asked several questions, and then Li Dongyang answered them one by one.

Just as Li Dongyang got up and was about to say the end, another scholar stood up.

The scholar was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a good jade pendant hanging around his waist. He knew he was born in a wealthy family at a glance.

The scholar said, "I also said that what the Taifu in the dynasty taught me was what he said. It turned out that all the great principles of Zhihuzheye. I would like to ask the Taifu, what you are talking about may be used during the imperial examination?"

Li Dongyang glanced at the scholar and replied: "It may not be available during the imperial examination, but you must use it when you are a human being."

"Be a human being?" The scholar suddenly raised his head and laughed. He said, "Everyone's life in this world is different. How can everyone use the same method?

For example, I have already become rich in my family as soon as I was born. Do I still need to manage my own affairs? I can directly govern the country and pacify the world. If I had known what you were saying, I would not have come to listen to this, and I would have been delayed.

I believe that those who are here to listen to your lectures want to hear how to take the imperial examinations well, rather than just cultivating oneself and managing the family.”

As soon as the young master finished speaking, many people present nodded subconsciously.

Indeed, Li Dongyang was a super-ranked official of the Ming Dynasty and was among the three ministers. Since he entered the officialdom, he has personally presided over the imperial examinations or promoted countless scholars.

The scholars who came to listen to his lectures naturally came to see the true face. Some wanted to hear them tell the truth about being a person and doing things, and it is not ruled out that some people wanted to listen to how to take the imperial examination well.

After all, no one understands the rules of the imperial examination better than Li Dongyang.

If it weren't for the place where his master taught, Jiang Xia would have rushed over and beat the guy who looked like a young man to the third place.

However, Jiang Xia still stood up and asked the young master: "Hey, this young master, do you have a ruler on you?"

The young man glanced at Jiang Xia, shook his head and replied: "No."

Jiang Xia nodded and said suddenly: "So you are a shameless person, no wonder your mouth is so smelly."

"You scold me?" the young man pointed at Jiang Xia angrily and asked.

Jiang Xia nodded and said, "Yes, I'm scolding you, do you know why I scold you?"

"Why?" the young master asked angrily.

Jiang Xia said: "I'll ask you a question first. Do you know what beasts like to ask the most?"

"How can beasts speak? I don't know." The young master replied.

"It's a pig." Jiang Xia said.

"Why?" asked the young master.

As soon as he asked, many scholars laughed out loud. Jiang Xia had just said that "pigs" like to ask "why" the most, and he immediately asked "why". Wouldn't he admit that he is a pig?

The young master was furious and pointed at Jiang Xia and cursed: "You are fooling me?"

"Yes, I'm trying to trick you into it. People have brains, so they won't get fooled. But pigs don't, so I'll get fooled when I tempt you. You said you're not good at pigs, why do you look like a human?

Do you think you are right in this way, you gave birth to you and raised your pig? Are you right in your identity as a pig? Do you think you are worthy of being a pig?"

"I" the young master said something for a moment. How can Jiang Xia answer the question? "Are you still worthy of being a pig?"

If you answer "Friend!", wouldn't that mean you admit that you are a pig?

If you answer "I don't deserve it!", wouldn't that mean you are not even as good as a pig?

Jiang Xia glanced at the young master with contempt and said lightly: "I also said that there is no difference between myself and others. It is indeed different. Everyone present has human brains. They know that coming to listen to lectures is to listen to the truth. Only your pig brains do not need to learn the principles of being a human being, because you are an animal, not a human being."

"Bastard!" The young master roared, then immediately pointed at Jiang Xia and said to the guards beside him: "Go! Break his legs and tear his mouth apart. I think he dares to talk nonsense!"

"Slow!" Jiang Xia suddenly reached out to stop him, and the young man said proudly: "What? Are you scared?"

Jiang Xia said, "This way, I will give you a chance to prove that you are smarter than a pig. One plus one, do you think it's difficult?"

"Of course it's not difficult." said the young master.

Jiang Xia nodded and asked again: "Young Master, are you a woman?"

"I am so heroic, of course I am not a woman. You are blind."

Jiang Xia suddenly looked dazed: "No wonder you can't say that others are going to do it. It turns out that you are not a man or a woman."

"You're OK." The young master felt that there were traps everywhere when talking to Jiang Xia. He said angrily: "Okay, I will change the answer. One plus one book, and the young master finds it difficult!"

This time it was not just Jiang Xia, but even Su Meiniang and Zhu Houzhao beside Jiang Xia laughed. Jiang Xia shook her head and sighed: "It's true that it's a pig's brain. Even a three-year-old child like One Plus One knows the answers, it's very difficult."

"Hahahaha" At this moment, almost all the scholars who heard Jiang Xia and the young master laughed.

The young man was extremely angry. He immediately pointed at Jiang Xia and shouted loudly: "What are you doing when you are standing there? Go! Break his legs, break his legs!!!"

The seven or eight guards squeezed away the crowd around and rushed towards Jiang Xia. Jiang Xia did not use any use to attack. Zhong Bin, Han Mufeng, Yu Ren, Leng Yu, Qian Juexing and others pulled out their weapons one after another.

All the guards' throats were either pointed at the tip of the sword, or held with a dagger, or two flying knives were inserted in front of their toes, and they might have lost their toes one step forward.

Before the young master could react, Jiang Xia ran over and kicked him to the ground.

"Bang!" Before the young master could speak, Jiang Xia suddenly slapped him in the face, and then drew out the short sword from his ankle.

He pointed his sword at the young master's eyes and asked coldly: "Say, what's your name?"

"My name is Wang Qingyun, and my father is Wang Xuren." Wang Qingyun saw that Jiang Xia and the others would illuminate their weapons as soon as they tried, and everyone flashed out all the murderous auras of the Sen people, so he was immediately scared and dared not be arrogant anymore.

The short sword in Jiang Xia's hand pushed a little into Wang Qingyun's eyes. Wang Qingyun's eyes widened, for fear that his eyelids would hang on the tip of the short sword when he blinked.

Jiang Xia muttered, "The king is a dragon and phoenix among people, and the green clouds are like a green cloud. Such a good name is really ruined for you. You are not allowed to use this name in the future. I will change one for you. You will have your surname in the future."

Jiang Xia thought for a long time and said, "From now on, your surname will be 'Qingri', which means Qingtian Bairi. As for the name, it is called 'Woliang', which means you must not forget to be a kind person when sleeping. Do you remember your new name?"

"Remember, remember, remember, remember," Wang Qingyun kept saying.

"Remember it and read it out loud and read it a few more times."

"Yes, yes, yes," Wang Qingyun shouted loudly: "Lying in Qingsun, lying in Qingsun, lying in Qingsun"

At first, everyone hadn't realized that there was any mystery in this name, but Su Meiniang laughed first and whispered: "It's so bad."

Then everyone realized that the homonym of Qing Ri Woliang is "Wanting Sun"?
