Chapter 1859 follow the trend
"I definitely have no such a traitorous idea. When I delivered the meal to Hai Gong, I guessed that this consequence might be possible. Everything was the disciple's fault!" Wang Honghai hurriedly explained and said sincerely.
Although he knew that this experience was closely related to his being Lin Shiran's favorite student, it was precisely because of this identity that he was able to directly participate in the editing work of "Talking about Ancient and Current" when he first entered the Hanlin Academy.
It is impossible to enjoy convenience without taking responsibility.
The most important thing is that Lin Qingran has always been the person he respects the most, and he did make psychological preparations when delivering the meal, so he did not have the slightest resentment of Lin Qingran.
Lin Weiran saw Wang Honghai's reaction and said bitterly: "There are many people outside who are talking about it: like Xu Jie, he will also ignore his children who are trapped in prison!"
"It must be someone who deliberately poured dirty water on his mentor. The disciples will never believe in the provocation. They also know that the teacher is not a kind person like Xu Jie!" Wang Honghai said seriously.
Lin Qingran shook his head helplessly, put the teacup gently and said, "When you delivered the meal, my teacher actually knew that Xu Jie would make a fuss about this, but my teacher did not stop him at that time.
,Do you know why?"
"Disciple doesn't know!" Wang Honghai knew that this teacher who calculated every three steps did have this kind of judgment ability, and knew in his heart that the teacher would definitely not dare to persist, but at this moment he asked in confusion.
Lin Qingran looked up at the direction of the Ministry of Justice and seemed to be open-minded: "As you said, you did not do anything wrong, and you don't think you did something wrong! Since you did not do anything wrong, you have a master.
How can you stop your students from doing the right thing by spreading the responsibilities of the profession and teaching the Tao?”
"After hearing this from my teacher, even if I die, I will be glad that I can worship my teacher in this life!" Wang Honghai's tears poured into his eyes, and he said with a choked politeness.
Whether it was when he delivered food to Hai Rui in prison or after he was demoted to the place, all relatives and friends said that he shouldn't do that, and advised him to seek benefits and avoid harm. Only the mentor in front of him told him:
Nothing wrong.
At this moment, the disparity and incomprehension he received during this period, as well as the gap from Hanlin editor to local magistrates, have become less important.
Because the teacher has confirmed his approach and thinks he did it right? So the teacher did not come forward to stop him. Can there be such a teacher in this life? What else can Wang Honghai be more grateful for?
It was also from this moment that his heart was deeply impressed by his mentor in front of him? This was a teacher who truly taught him his knowledge.
Lin Qingran is a smart person? When he saw Wang Honghai's conflict between the sentiment of scholars and the world, he said in a deep voice: "In theory, you did not do anything wrong, and your teacher should help you! Just a teacher
Will taking action cause Hai Rui to suffer? But... this is not the reason why Master is unwilling to take action? The real reason is that Master wants to take the opportunity to temper you well!"
"Tempered by me? Please tell me clearly!" Wang Honghai said humbly.
Lin Qingran took a sip of tea and spoke happily like a role model: "Although you were born in the poor Qiongzhou, you were born in the family of officials and did not really feel the sufferings of the people. Although reading history makes people wise?
Does it contain the great way to govern the country? But the world will eventually change. All dynasties tried to restore the Zhou system. Even the saints said: Zhou was so depressed by the three dynasties. I followed Zhou. It just started from the Han Dynasty? But none of them could do it.
Why is this successful restoration of the Zhou system? I hope you will no longer be limited to history books? Instead, you should go to the local area to experience the sufferings of the people and understand what the people need? Find a different way to govern the country!"
The afternoon sun was tilted, and a ray of sunlight fell on the smooth stone table? It made Lin Weiran feel a little different.
"Teacher? You..." Wang Honghai stared blankly at the teacher who made his heart excited. He seemed to be reexamining the most respected teacher.
Lin Qingran gently put down the teacup and said bitterly: "This is too outrageous, right?"
This is indeed contrary to this era. All dynasties have pursued "recovering Zhou" and restoring the ideal social model, so all scholars in the world want to find a way to govern the country from the experiences of the ancients.
But Lin Qingran proposed that the way of governing the country was not actually in the ancient books and classics, but among the people ruled by this dynasty, which was undoubtedly a rebellious statement.
"Although I do have this idea, I have always known that the teacher is a wise person. Otherwise, Leizhou and Guangzhou would not prosper because of the teacher, and the court would not improve because of the teacher. Listen today
After hearing the teacher's words, the disciple now feels enlightened and feels secretly happy that he is fortunate to come out of history books. He is more willing to imitate the teacher and start as a local official!" Wang Honghai's eyes flashed with excitement and responded.
During these four years, especially since I have been involved in the editing work of "Talking about the Ancient and the Current", I have always felt confused. On the one hand, there are the governance of the sages described by the ancients, and on the other hand, there are various ill-disadvantages, which makes him also
I feel that this is impossible to govern the world.
But now, Lin Weiran seemed to point him another way, a path that was rebellious but seemed more feasible.
Lin Qingran nodded with satisfaction and said lightly: "My teacher originally thought you had less experience, so when he wanted to drive you out of the capital, Mr. Xu thought about it over and over again, but he still didn't choose to take action. As for why you did
I was sent to Songjiang Prefecture as the magistrate of Shanghai, but this incident was the result of my greeting Gao Gong!”
"Teacher, you want disciples if you make such arrangements..." Wang Honghai suddenly had a bold idea in his heart when he heard that this was Lin Shiran's arrangement.
Lin Weiran saw through Wang Honghai's thoughts at a glance, but said with a stern face: "Don't guess. The reason why I arranged for you to be the magistrate of Shanghai is to let you be a parent who cares about suffering! If you think you are a teacher,
I want you to deal with Mr. Xu. Don’t say that you can’t do it at all, you will also be narrow-minded in your mind!”
Although he and Xu Jie were incompatible with each other, they would not be so incompatible with each other. As a later generation, they naturally knew that Shanghai's geographical advantages and economic value could completely build Shanghai into an important port for East China Sea trade.
This era has changed after all. Whoever can win the dominance of the sea will be able to dominate this era. If Shanghai, Ningbo, Yuegang, Guangzhou and Leizhou form a line, China will definitely become the world's largest maritime power.
"Disciple is wrong, please forgive me!" Wang Honghai was naturally willing to do anything for his mentor, but after knowing that this was a misunderstanding, he also hurriedly apologized.
Lin Qingran picked up the teacup, but he warned seriously: "You are the magistrate of Shanghai this time. I will not be as anxious as Xu Jie to recall you, and I will let you stay in Shanghai for three years, and I will also
Investigate you for three years! If you cannot make any difference in these three years, or even do things that harm the people, then you and I won’t see you again, and the teacher can only remember the subordinates... There is a daily gift for Hai Rui
Good student who delivers food!”
"If the disciple does such a bad thing and does something that insults the teacher's reputation, the disciple will commit suicide by the Yangtze River!" Wang Honghai also vowed.
Lin Qingran took a sip of tea and then said softly: "After you become the magistrate of Shanghai, I will let the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce strongly support you in the development of Shanghai County. I hope you will not let your teacher down!"
"Disciples will definitely manage Shanghai County well and take their mentor as an example!" Wang Honghai knew that the teacher was actually silently supporting him, and also ensuring that he promised.
Lin Qingran nodded with satisfaction. He really hoped that among his disciples, some people with a spirit of hard work, rather than those civic officials who only know how to talk about war on paper.
It is not good to say that the ministers are not good, but they are too idealistic in many things. They either overly hope for the administration of the government, or they are greedy people themselves, and in the end they either fail to do things or do nothing at all.
When Wang Honghai was about to leave, he knocked three times at Lin Qingran. In his heart, Lin Qingran was not only a teacher, but also a father, but also a guiding light for his life.
Lin Xuran looked at Wang Honghai who was kowtowing and leaving, but sighed secretly.
He knew very well that Xu Jie was just the beginning of dealing with Wang Honghai, and there might be more operations in the future, and he would even point the finger directly at him, the Minister of Revenue.
