Before the age of five, Wang Yangming was once considered a fool, not only his friends in the same village felt like this, but even his parents felt that they had given birth to a fool;
But such a fool who couldn't speak became one of two half-saints.
Before Wang Yangming was born, his grandmother dreamed of a red-clothed god holding a child and falling from the sky, and Wang Yangming was born the next day.
So Wang Yangming was originally named Wang Yun, and his grandfather felt that this child was auspicious, so he called the place where he was born Ruiyun Tower.
The good times don't last long, children of the same age can already speak, and Wang Yangming still can't say a word;The family thought that this child was not a fool, and the children in the same village also bullied her.
Until he was five years old, a Taoist priest from Youfang smiled when he saw Wang Yangming, touched his head, and said to his grandfather: "The noble man is late, he should be Shouren", and then, Wang Yangming was renamed Wang Shouren, and Wang Yangming could speak the next day.
Twelve-year-old Wang Yangming began to study in a private school, and he was out of place in the school.
Other students won the imperial examination and became an official as their lifelong ambitionHowever, Wang Yangming said amazingly, "I am afraid that it is not the first class thing to ascend to the top, or to study and learn the ears of sages!."”
What does that mean?
It's that the imperial examination is not the first important thing, reading the books of sages and being sages is the first important thing in life!
At the time, this was a big rebellion!
When it reached the ears of Wang Yangming's father, Wang Hua laughed and immediately said, "My family background is shown by reading, and it is used for it, and my son is wonderful!."words.
Sixteen-year-old Wang Yangming began his journey of learning about objects in order to understand Zhu Xi's knowledge of objects.
The most famous thing is his "grid bamboo" thing.
After seven days and seven nights of bamboo, Xiao Wang Yangming found that nothing was "checked", but it made a good guy seriously ill, so he had great doubts about Cheng Zhu Lixue.
Seventeen-year-old Wang Yangming got married, and since then, his luck seems to have run out.
Obviously, the poems and songs are all kind, and the art of war and tactics are at his fingertips, but he failed to participate in the imperial examination twice, and it was not until he was 28 years old that he participated in the imperial examination for the third time before he was promoted to the rank of scholar.
35-year-old Wang Yangming, because of his impartiality and outspokenness, offended the eunuch Liu Jin, a traitor, and was first taken off his pants and beaten with 40 boards, and then thrown into prison.
At this time, the real ordeal of Wang Yangming's life has just begun.
If you know about ancient punishments, you will know that if you are unlucky, you may be beaten to death!
As the saying goes, if you can't punish a doctor, you can't kill a doctor, you can't be humiliated, take off your pants and hit forty boards, but it's not just about ***, but also about humiliating Wang Yangming!
Fortunately, God bless the saint, Wang Yangming actually recovered in the darkest prison.
Half a month later, Wang Yangming was demoted to Longchang Yicheng, a small powerless official who did not enter the stream.
It's already like this, but Liu Jin, who has a very small heart, is still unwilling, he wants to kill Wang Yangming!
In May of the following year, Wang Yangming found someone sent by Liu Jin to assassinate him next to the Qiantang River, and he had a plan, put his shoes on the riverside, threw the hat into the river, disguised himself as jumping into the river, and got rid of the killer who was following him.
He kept running until the night, found a small temple, so he got in, but when he went in, he found that this place was actually a tiger's den!
This frightened Wang Yangming, but fortunately, the tiger slept soundly, and Wang Yangming was able to escape.
In the end, Wang Yangming went through a lot of hardships and finally arrived at Guizhou Longchang, so far the emperor is far away, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, Wang Yangming also began a new stage of his life, of course, that is another story.
