You Miao said: "No, I will stay in Jiangcheng for one night, you can go back."

You Hange left, leaving You Miao and Li Zhifeng. Li Zhifeng asked, "Are you going back to the villa?"

"I haven't finished talking yet." You Miao said: "Tomorrow, I have to continue to pick up my grandson, let's go, let's go to the market, or buy something."

Li Zhifeng led the horse, and the two strolled around the market. They bought some gadgets and food. They bundled a cart. When Yumiao stayed overnight in Jiangcheng, they got up at dawn the next day and went to Sun Residence. Stand outside.

When the door was opened, the butler was very surprised to see You Miao, and then smiled knowingly: "Wait inside, the master hasn't gotten up yet."

You Miao entered the side hall and poured and drank by himself, while Li Zhifeng waited on the side. You Miao drank tea by himself, took the book of Poetry and flipped through it, and motioned for Li Zhifeng to drink with him.

Sun Yu didn't get up until early in the morning. The two maids were combing his beard. Hearing that You Miao was waiting outside at dawn, she nodded in satisfaction and ordered the housekeeper to serve You Miao breakfast. Just sitting in the hall, You Miao started talking about articles and asking questions today.

Sun Yu was born in Liuzhou, and he also served as a Beijing official for ten years. Later, he was transferred to Huizhou to serve as an official and director. His tenure lasted for fifteen years, and he was a scholar in Qingshuo for three years. He had friendship with several great scholars in the capital. . When I read You Miao Paper this time in the township exam, it was like seeing an old acquaintance, and I liked his literary and literary heart, so I personally ordered his Jie Yuan.

However, with You Miao's accumulation, he naturally needs to read a few more years of books. After a full day of talks between teachers and students, You Miao has benefited a lot. He feels that he can no longer spend his days in the capital like a year ago.

The way of officialdom, the way of reading, the affairs of the country and the people, as a man, you have to think about it all the time.

You Miao was very worried about Zhao Chao's situation, and when he talked about the situation in Goryeo, he couldn't help but say a few more words, and asked Sun Yu about the border issue.

Sun Yu was surprised that You Miao knew the military situation on the border like the back of the hand, but You Miao was surprised that Sun Yu was still fighting! The art of war, the layout, Sun Yu analyzed them one by one.

"Thirty years ago, when the apocalypse was prosperous." In the end, Sun Yu couldn't help but sigh: "Civil officials can mount a horse to kill an enemy with a bow and arrow, and they can write a book with a pen. Look, there are still a few young people who can do it. Can you do it? In today's court, most of them are rotten Confucians who only understand official articles, and when it comes to arranging troops, they don't know anything about it. As for incurring a fiasco.”

You Miao said: "Students want to learn something, that is, hey..."

Sun Yu said leisurely: "Master naturally knows that you want to learn something, otherwise, you will not come to the door again today."

You Miao heard this compliment, but her heart was still a little heavy, and the anxious look in her eyes was all in Sun Yu's eyes, and Sun Yu said again: "You have to learn the art of war, learn warfare, this matter cannot be urgent."

"What is a victory? What is a loss? What is a soldier?" Sun Yu said: "Mo underestimated a civil servant, a real capable minister. In the imperial court, one can top a million soldiers. Do you believe it?"

You Miao seemed to understand something.

Sun Yu: "The upper armies attack Miao, the second is to attack Jiao, the second is to attack the troops, and the lower is to attack the city."

You Miao immediately became clear in her mind and understood what Sun Yu said, this old civil servant is indeed very talented, and only heard Sun Yu say again: "A good fighter..."

"Subduing soldiers without fighting!" You Miao said.

"That's right." Sun Yu said, "Thousands of miles away, if the situation in the DPRK can be resolved, many battles will not even be fought. Back then when I was in Beijing, I offered a countermeasure to His Majesty. The Goryeo faction is sitting on the big side, causing such trouble?"

You Miao said, "Teacher, you... also served in the DPRK and China?"

Sun Yuyun smiled lightly and said, "The teacher was actually demoted to Liuzhou!"

You Miao understood, it seemed that Sun Yu was still a high-ranking official back then, but he didn't dare to ask more, he just frowned and sighed: "His Royal Highness led the army, I just hope to return sooner."

"That's what I think." Sun Yu sighed heavily and said, "But the current Prime Minister has made a wrong move. First, he can't keep up with the food and wages, and secondly, he dispatched the Yanbian garrison to go on an expedition to Korea. It's really..."

"Does it hurt the people and money?" You Miao said.

Sun Yu frowned slightly, You Miao hurriedly kept silent, and Sun Yu said again: "In a while, the court's collection of Jiangnan grain as army salaries will most likely come down, that's all, you can go back now, no matter what. early."

You Miao got up to say goodbye, and said, "Can I borrow some books from the teacher to go back and read?"

Sun Yu said: "You can take it."

You Miao went to the study to borrow a book, then said goodbye respectfully, and after returning home, she thought about it, and indeed learned a lot from Sun Yu. After reading the book carefully and going to the door, Sun Yu took a test on his homework, but scolded him and ordered him to go back and read again.

"How to read?" Sun Yu asked him: "You just read it and understand it, without any ideas of your own?"

You Miao's forehead was dripping with sweat. At first, she just wanted to show herself as a good boy, to show that she had finished reading the book, to please Sun Yu, and to learn something, but Sun Yu could see through You Miao's careful thought at a glance.

"I'll just ask you a question." Sun Yu asked, "The Tao is not far away and everyone is the Tao, but the far people can't be the Tao, what's the solution?"

You Miao: "… "

Sun Yu sat down with the book and said, "You answer, I won't punish you."

You Miao laughed, thought about it, and said, "Students think that the Tao is not far from people, and people are far from Tao, and they can't be Tao."

Sun Yu was silent, You Miao cut off a sentence, and explained: "This way, you can't live in isolation, but..."

You Miao thought she understood, but as soon as she said it, she suddenly found that she couldn't express it.

"Haha." Sun Yupi smiled and looked at You Miao.

You Miao was dumbfounded.

He thought about it for a while and said, "It's the truth... If we want to implement this truth, it should be practiced from the people... from the crowd... Once you live in isolation from the crowd, you won't be able to learn it?"

Sun Yu held the book high, his face ashen, almost slapped You Miao's face.

After You Miao finished saying this, she felt that she didn't understand shit, her facial features were twitching, and she had an expression she couldn't bear to see.

"Ask you again." Sun Yu held the book but didn't give it to him, and said in a deep voice, "What is Tao?"

"Dao... is... Dao Dao Dao..." You Miao knew that the words of the examination school were a sentence in "The Doctrine of the Mean", so naturally it was the Doctrine of the Mean. Dao, You Miao couldn't speak anymore.

"The Tao is sensible, and it is very Tao." Sun Yu took it slow.

"Yes, yes, yes." You Miao said, "This way, I just can't tell."

"Go back and figure it out for me! I don't know much about it! It's almost gone!"

Immediately after, the book was smashed across the face.
