14. "虚有其表", "表里如一", "一见如故", "故弄玄虚" four idioms, each Chinese character represents one of 11 consecutive non-zero natural numbers, the same character represents the same number, different characters represent different numbers, and "表" > "一" > "故" > "如" > "虚", and the sum of the four characters in each idiom is 21, then what is the largest number that "弄" can represent?
【Answer】9
【Analysis】For convenience of expression, let these eleven numbers be $A / B / C / D / E / F / G / H / I / J / K$ respectively, and the total sum be $S$, then, "nong" is “$J$”, we have
$$
\begin{array}{l}
\left\{\begin{array}{l}
A+B+C+D=21 \\
D+E+F+G=21 \\
G+H+F+I=21 \\
I+J+K+A=21 \\
D>G>I>F>A
\end{array}\right. \\
S+D+G+I+F+A=84
\end{array}
$$

If starting from 2, $S \geq 77$, which is impossible, so these eleven numbers are $1 \sim 11$
Then $S=66$, so $D+G+I+F+A=18=8+4+3+2+1=7+5+3+2+1=6+5+4+2+1$
Discuss in three cases (1), (2), and (3):
(1) $H=12$ contradiction
(2) $E=7$ contradiction
(3)
$$
\left\{\begin{array}{l}
B+C=14=3+11 \\
E=8 \\
H=10 \\
J+K=16=7+9
\end{array}\right.
$$
$J$ is maximized at 9
