Smiling at the peach blossom fan, peach blossoms smile at the spring breeze

After arriving in Beijing with his father, Hou Fangyu was recommended by his father to a friend who was giving him, and asked his friends to take care of the children and take care of them. During this period, Hou Fangyu met a large number of masters of his uncle's generation, such as Zhang Pu and Qian Qianyi, and some of the talents of his elder brothers, such as Wu Meicun , Chen Zilong, or political tycoons, or literary tycoons, no ordinary people.

These bigwigs who are above the top of the eye also quickly fell in love with Hou Fangyu after interacting with Hou Fangyu, and found that Hou Fangyu is really not like a child who has just come out of a small place, his mastery of Chinese cultural knowledge of 5,000 years has far surpassed that of his peers, and his vision has already jumped out of Shangqiu City and Henan, and what is more popular with everyone is his character: bold, "the dynasty is heroic and strategic, and the young book has the ambition of the world", "Arrogant and chivalrous, good speech". Qian Qianyi, who is a genius in the world, also called Hou Fangyu a genius in the world, thinking that his brother can be compared with Su Shi's brothers (Qian Qianyi did not look away, and Hou Fangyu is not Fang Zhongyong, who is not known to everyone, and the world still calls him comparable to Li Bai and Su Shi in his prime); celebrities Wu Yingji and Xia Yunyi think that Hou Fangyu can be compared to Zhou Yu and Wang Meng. This is not only a praise for Hou Fangyu's literary talent and martial arts, but also an affirmation of his bold and open-minded character.

However, many things can't stand scrutiny, and they are extremely scary when they think about it, and these good words that are praised on the surface are actually a little cursed, and finally become a prophecy: Su Shi has been depressed in the officialdom all his life; Wang Meng and Zhou Yu were born in troubled times, especially when Zhou Yu died young at the age of 35, they were simply drafting Hou Fangyu.

At a social event, Hou Sui recommended Hou Fangyu to Uncle Zhang Puzhang, the secretary general of the Restoration Society.

Uncle Zhang cordially received Hou Fangyu and encouraged him to study hard, not be arrogant or impatient, and strive for greater achievements, and said that Hou Fangyu had fully met the standards of a member of the Restoration Society, and solemnly invited Hou Fangyu to join the Restoration Society.

The Restoration Society is a sacred, noble, great and advanced organization, and it has always been Hou Fangyu's dream to join the Restoration Society, and he did not hesitate to agree to Zhang Pu's invitation and officially become a member of the Restoration Society.

In the Fushe, Hou Fangyu met a lot of members of the Fushe who were as high-ranking as him, the same Donglin second generation, the same talented and intelligent and handsome, and everyone had honorary titles such as "Young Precocious Wisdom", "Children of the World" and "County Champion", among which Fang Yizhi, Mao Bijiang, and Chen Zhenhui were representatives. Hou Fangmao Chen had the same identity, background, cultural level, etc., had a lot of common language, often studied and entertained together, and soon formed a small circle, and was later called "Fushe Four Xiucai" or "Four Sons of the Late Ming Dynasty". Of course, the "childe" here is an honorific title, and does not contain derogatory meanings such as "rich second generation", "second ancestor", "dog few" and so on.

After entering the headquarters of the Kyoto Restoration Society, Hou Fangyu's first reaction was shock. Over the years, he has stood out from the crowd in such a small place as Shangqiu, and the grade gap between him and the people around him has dropped widely, and those who are as knowledgeable as him are either some old scholars with backward ideas or lifeless court officials, who cannot get out of the trap; young people with rich brains and vitality like him lack knowledge accumulation, or they are ignorant and contemptible, or they are young and frivolous and disgusting. There are some unlayered goods around him, and Hou Fangyu is afraid that playing chess with the stinky chess basket will get more and more smelly, so he deliberately stays away from these people. At this time, Hou Fangyu felt lonely and lonely on the one hand, where to find a soulmate at the end of the world, and on the other hand, he was complacent, thinking that the heroes of the world were not enough. After joining the society, Hou Fangyu suddenly found that compared with Shangqiu's radish meeting, this is the real gathering of heroes, and the once high place was actually a hero in Shangqiu, thinking of feeling good about himself in a domain before, Hou Fangyu couldn't help but feel ashamed and had a fever on his face.

After joining the Restoration Society, Hou Fangyu found the feeling of returning to the sea to swim to his heart's content, there are classmates, friends, and comrades at the same level and realm as him, you can discuss the world every day, you can show what you have learned in your chest, you can find too many common topics and things of common interest, don't worry about them can't catch the stalk, you want to play elegant They can recite the "Book of Songs" in full The middle and remote chapters, you want to play vulgar, they are more than you think, there is no bottom line, no lower limit, you want to enjoy the beauty of poetry, they can not only blurt out similar chapters, but also know several funny versions, when you tell allusions and anecdotes, you find that they have a deep understanding from a number of tricky angles, in short, you can let go of the chat, and show off hard. The feeling of chatting with these people is very refreshing, such as drinking alcohol, like bathing in the spring breeze, not only the comfort of communicating with friends, but also the aftertaste of communicating with elegant people. Here, Hou Fangyu found the feeling of a confidant that he had never had, the reason for the confidant is very simple, everyone is an extremely smart genius, the views on many things are the same, the heroes see the same, and anyone here can communicate with each other without barriers, in short, as Stealgra said: Here are all talents, and they speak well, I like the feeling in this.

Another thing that makes Hou Fangyu satisfied is that he can find the feeling of "ordinary people" here, no need to hide it, no need to be modest, no need to worry about who is amazing, no need to worry about the temple being too small to put down, any one here is also talented, they are all famous babies, they are all geniuses on the sonic boom side, no one is worse than anyone, no one is superior to anyone, it is difficult to be conspicuous here. The stage here is unimaginably large, I'm not afraid that you can't let go of your ability, I'm afraid that you don't have the ability to be despised, how much energy can be released, how much strength you have to play hard.

Now that the friends around him are beyond imagination, how talented should those people at a higher level be? Hou Fangyu felt the pressure, he regretted it, he really regretted it, he regretted not leaving Shangqiu early. Shangqiu's place is too small, which not only limits his vision and knowledge, but also makes him complacent and arrogant, relaxes his requirements for himself, and wastes his time. People who once thought they had been successful have only just started on the road now, and it is a fluke to be able to get to this step in front of them and be able to mix at the same level as these people in front of them, and they may still be left behind by these elites if they work hard to climb up, and what qualifications do they have to slack off! Where does the ridiculous feeling of superiority come from! Thinking of the previous swaying spirit to guide the country, Hou Fangyu felt that there were more of them to show their ugliness, and what was the difference between them and those second-class young people he once despised!

Realize that the past is not admonished, and those who know the future can be chased, but the way is not far away, I feel that today is and yesterday is not, I hope it is not too late to turn back, but I hope it will come in time. With pressure, motivation, and goals, Hou Fangyu entered a new round of learning, he and the comrades of the Fushe promoted each other, and made progress together with the help of learning, which is to live with good people like entering the room of Zhilan for a long time without knowing its fragrance, the popular saying is to follow tens of millions to earn millions, and a new world appeared in front of him to let him gallop in it, and mountains appeared waiting for him to climb.

During this time, he quickly jumped out of local restrictions, as for the good girl in the house on the street in his hometown was bullied by hooligans on another street, Shangqiu paid too much in Henan and got too little, and Henan was discriminated against by the region.

During this time, he jumped out of the limitations of the article, and found that the excellent composition he was proud of before was nothing more than the foundation of the foundation, and the talent that showed him was just the Confucianism of the villain. What he prefers is the Confucianism of a gentleman, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, upright and evil, Ze and at that time, his name was left for future generations, and he began to "speak loudly" and "boast of the economy".

During this time, Hou Fangyu realized that he should not just be a weak staff officer in white clothes, and even unwilling to become Su Shi Li Bai of Wenyao through the ages, he was "conceited and overlooked", and was more willing to be the same as Zhou Yu and Wang Meng, to be a general who fought in the sand and strategized and made contributions, his personality was more bold, he sincerely got to know the heroes of the world, the pearls and jades were scattered, and he became a frequent visitor to many green buildings and restaurants, and discussed the affairs of the world with friends in a happy atmosphere, and had the spirit of being indispensable.

During this time, Hou Fangyu grew as ferociously as a crop with chemical fertilizer, his cultural knowledge soared, his horizons broadened rapidly, his taste continued to rise, the pattern rapidly became larger, and his personal connections soared. In order to express his excitement at this time, this 15-year-old young man wrote a long poem "Early Hair and Feelings", excerpting the following sentences: "The four countries are in the dust, where will they end up? The sword of Ande Yanjin is clear and clear. Yuanhou twenty-four, traces and Xiao Cao imitation. The battle is swaying the smoke, and the famous painting is on the unicorn". In the poem, Hou Fangyu will have to know the historical allusions that we can only know through Du Niang, even if we can't fully understand it, we can still feel the spirit and mind of this young man from it, far beyond us who are still asking for land and asking for money for half our lives.

At the age of sixteen, Hou Fangyu decided to show his economic talents, share his father's worries, and ghostwrote the "Report on Further Strengthening the Management of Cultivated Land and Restoring Agricultural Production" to Emperor Chongzhen.

Some people believe that the "Report" is a case study that fully demonstrates that the scientific analysis is thorough and the guidance is extremely strong, and that Hou Fangyu has a great talent for helping the country and the world; while others believe that the "Report" is flashy and unrealistic, and that Hou Fangyu is just a little kid who talks about things above the top and boasts. And ordinary people like us are obviously unconscious, very shocked, not to mention that we don't understand agriculture and don't understand management, just from the fact that we can't even recognize the words in the report, can't understand the words, connect into a sentence, and don't know the so-called point, Hou Fangyu may be a little worse than the old foxes, and he has surpassed us ordinary people too much, and there are really two brushes.

According to normal logic, another second ancestor will be on the road to success.

I have to say that the second ancestor is easier to embark on the road to success, their genes are often better than the children of ordinary families, and the educational resources and social resources they can enjoy will also exceed those of ordinary families, as well as their status, wealth, vision, insight, courage and other ordinary children must study hard and even learn painful lessons in exchange. Therefore, it is very difficult for ordinary children to defeat the second ancestor in the competition, the probability is very small, they may be able to defeat the individual strange second ancestor, but it is too difficult to defeat the diligent and hard-working second ancestor, and with the same effort, the second ancestor will be much higher than the grassroots achievement. Ordinary people need to spend most of their lives to pay off their ancestors' debts and fill in the pits, and many grassroots people will sadly find that their end point is only the starting point of the second ancestors.

Many people are emotionally reluctant to admit this, and are willing to fill themselves with free chicken soup to believe in the inspirational stories of grassroots counterattacks, and maliciously set up some typical characters for the second ancestor who are arrogant and conceited, greedy for comfort, sleeping in flowers and willows, fighting cocks, ignorant and brainless, and extravagant losers, fantasizing that the son of the poor family will defeat the second ancestor through a bunch of unreasonable miracles or near-perverted efforts. It's a bit unkind to think like this, the advantages of the second ancestors are not blown by the wind, but the hard work of their ancestors. The grassroots have been shouting that the second ancestor should put down his advantages and compete with them fairly, which is as unreasonable as "putting aside the facts", if the second ancestor gives up the ancestral shadow for the so-called fairness, this is the real unfairness. The grassroots think that it is too unfair to put in the same effort but not get as much as the second ancestor, but they are unwilling to think about the same as defeating the accumulated accumulation of the second ancestor with more than ten years or decades of personal efforts.

Hou Fangyu is a smart, diligent, hard-working second ancestor, with the shadow of his ancestors, he was born at a young age, if nothing else, a new star in the literary and political arena will soon rise.
