The rise of the poor

Chapter 1366 Four Slaps
What qualifications does Jin Shengtan have to be your confidant? !
Hehe, if Jin Shengtan is not qualified to be your confidant, there will be no one in the world who can be your confidant.

Zhu Pingan smiled slightly at the greasy fat man, and said slowly, "Jin Shengtan, like Brother Hu, has taken the imperial examination many times."

"So what? Those who have taken the imperial examinations are gone, can they all be my confidantes?! If you understand it according to your logic, then I will have confidants everywhere, and I will have confidants everywhere."

The greasy fatty shook his head.

"Let me give two examples. Brother Hu judges for himself whether Jin Shengtan is qualified to be your confidant."

Zhu Pingan smiled.

"Hehe, come here, let me listen to you." The greasy fat man replied casually.

"One time he took part in the imperial examination, and the title was 'I'm [-] and I'm not tempted.'" Zhu Pingan said slowly.

"This is also what Mencius said. Gongsun Chou asked: "Master Jia Qi's minister of state can practice the way, although it is not different from being a king. If so, is it tempting?" Mencius said: "No. I am not tempted at forty. '" The greasy fat man took a sip of his tea and said casually, "This question is easy and nothing new."

Nothing new? !
Well, indeed, such a stereotyped topic is indeed simple and uninspiring for most scholars.

However, this is also divided.

"Brother Hu, do you know how Jin Shengtan answered?" Zhu Pingan twitched the corner of his mouth and asked the greasy fat man.

"I'm not him, how do I know." The greasy fat man shrugged and rolled his eyes.

"If it's Brother Hu, how do you answer it?" Zhu Pingan ignored the fat man's white eyes and asked leisurely.

"Mencius is not tempted at forty, and his realm is the same as that of Confucius at forty. What is not confused, there is a saying in "The Analects of Confucius Yan Yuan" that love desires its life, and evil desires its death. Wanting to die is confusing.' To solve the problem from this angle, do you think so?" The greasy fat man said casually.

"Of course." Zhu Pingan nodded with a smile.

"How did he answer?" asked the greasy fat man.

"Brother Hu, listen carefully." Zhu Pingan said with a smile, "Jin Shengtan wrote on the first line of the test paper: There are ten thousand taels of gold in the empty mountains and poor valleys, and there is a beautiful woman outside the white reeds. May I ask if the gentleman is tempted? Then Immediately afterwards, on the second line of the test paper, I wrote: Be tempted, be tempted, be tempted, be tempted, be tempted, be tempted, be tempted, be tempted, and be tempted. I wrote 39 words in a row.

"what?!"

The greasy fat man was indifferent at first, but after hearing Zhu Ping'an's words, he felt as if he had been electrocuted, and left the table all of a sudden.

"Mencius said that 'forty is not tempting', so in the 40 years before the age of 39, he was tempted by gold and beautiful women, so Jin Shengtan wrote 39 tempting?! Wonderful, wonderful! Jin Shengtan, really second person Also!" After the greasy fatty stood up, he paced excitedly while talking to himself.

"Brother Hu is the one who knows Jin Shengtan." Zhu Pingan nodded with a smile. "After the exam, the examiner asked Jin Shengtan why he wrote 39 heartfelt words. Jin Shengtan's explanation was exactly the same as Brother Hu's."

"Is there another example?" The greasy fat man was no longer casual before, and asked excitedly.

"Another example is the exam. Jin Shengtan was tempted by 39, so he was naturally named Sun Shan. When the next scientific exam, Jin Shengtan went to the exam again, this time the topic was 'Xizi is coming'." Zhu Pingan said slowly under the urging of the fat man.

"Xizi is coming?! Comment on Xishi's envoy to Wu Guohu?" The greasy fat man quickly solved the problem.

"Of course." Zhu Pingan nodded.

"How does Jin Shengtan answer the question?!" The fat man couldn't wait to know how Jin Shengtan answered the question.

"Jin Shengtan said in the test paper: When you go out the east gate, the west man will not come; if you go out the south gate, the west man will not come; if you go out the north gate, the west man will not come; if you go out the west gate, the west man will come? Will the west man come? The west man will come. The examiner read Jin Shengtan's test paper and was furious, commenting, "The beauty is coming, but it's a pity that you have lost your reputation!"

Zhu Pingan also told Greasy Fatty about another of Jin Shengtan's scientific research feats.

"Hahahaha. What a beautiful thing is here. Miaozai, Miaozai, it should be clear." The fat man laughed loudly, poured the tea on the ground, took the jug and filled a teacup full of wine, and drank it in one gulp. do.

"Hehe, is Jin Shengtan qualified to be Brother Hu's confidant?" Zhu Pingan asked with a smile.

"Yes, of course he is qualified to be my confidant! However, I am not qualified to be his confidant." The greasy fat man sighed, "Jin Shengtan regards his achievements as dung, his heart is clear and his mind is free, I am not as good as that."

Jin Shengtan regards merit as dung, his heart is clear, and his mind is free
You can see this from the two stories, and you are qualified to be Jin Shengtan's confidant.

"There is such a brilliant talent in the world, but I don't know it. I'm just watching the sky from a well, and I don't know much about it."

The greasy fat man repeatedly patted his thighs emotionally, then looked at Zhu Pingan attentively, and asked repeatedly, "Little brother, tell me quickly, where is Jin Shengtan from and where does he live?"

"Jin Shengtan is also from Wu County, Suzhou." Zhu Ping'an replied.

"What?! Wu County, Suzhou?! It's only four hundred miles away from Shaoxing. I don't know that such a talented person is so close at hand! Damn it, damn it." The greasy fat man gave himself two mouthfuls.

Zhu Ping'an and Liu Dadao on the side were dumbfounded.

After the greasy fat man slapped himself twice, he clasped his fists at Zhu Ping'an and Liu Dadao, said, "Thank you for your hospitality, I'm sorry.", and then started to walk out.

"Brother Hu, where are you going?" Zhu Pingan quickly grabbed the greasy fat man's sleeve.

"It's not too late to make amends, I'm going to visit Jin Shengtan." The greasy fat man said anxiously while tugging at his sleeves, "Little brother, don't stop me, I can't wait to see Jin Shengtan."

The corners of Zhu Ping'an's mouth twitched uncontrollably when he heard that, where can you find Jin Shengtan in Suzhou now?He was born in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and he has not yet been born.You go now, only to find his grandpa's grandpa.

"Ahem, Brother Hu, Brother Hu, Mr. Jin Shengtan, he is no longer alive."

Zhu Pingan coughed and explained that he couldn't tell him that Jin Shengtan wasn't born yet.

"What?! Not alive anymore?!" Hearing this, the greasy fat man felt as if the ball had been deflated, and instantly languished, and then he gave himself two big mouths in excitement, "such a person is so close, But I missed it, I really deserve to die, I really don't want to die!"
