Xie Yi was lying on the bed, his pulse was already quite soft. He looked at Dr. Shu, different from the way he treated his master in the past, but more like an elder: "Doctor, you have a knot in your heart that should be untied.

.”

"Oh? Heart knot? What heart knot?"

"That's the reason why you resigned and went home. Your disdain for the Sima clan's usurpation of Cao Wei. Isn't this the reason why you chose to resign?"

Dr. Shu was puzzled: "Why do you say these suddenly?"

"With all due respect, although I have a low status, I have been working in Luoyang for a long time and I still understand some truths. It is certainly wrong for the Sima family to usurp Cao Wei, but is this not the retribution of Cao Wei for usurping the Han Dynasty?"

"Of course I know this, but they were obsessed with killing the Emperor of Wei. As an old official of Wei, I can never forgive them!" After many years, Dr. Shu still felt aggrieved when it came to the fact that Sima Zhao and his followers killed Wei Emperor Cao Mao.

pregnant.

Xie Yi was still conscious and said slowly: "Doctor, haven't you noticed? The Sima family's usurpation of Cao Wei is almost the same as the Cao family's usurpation of the Han Dynasty."

In the 19th year of Jian'an, the Han Dynasty declined and Cao Cao took power. Empress Fu of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty teamed up with her father Fu Wan to get rid of Cao Cao. However, things failed and Cao Cao sent people to capture Empress Fu. Empress Fu was so frightened that she hid in the wall.

, being pulled by someone and making his hair shine

Dragging her feet out, she asked Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, "Can I still live?" Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty lamented helplessly, I don't know how long I can live, how can I protect you! Then, Empress Fu and her family members

More than a hundred people were killed by Cao Cao.

Dr. Shu certainly knew about these things, but he did not answer. Xie Yi took a breath and continued to speak slowly: "Doctor, you said that Cao Cao granted the title of Duke of Wei, entered the kingship of Wei, and killed Queen Fu's family. Six years later, he

His son Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor on behalf of the Han Dynasty; Sima Zhao granted the title of Duke of Jin, became king of Jin, and killed Cao Mao. Five years later, his son Sima Yan proclaimed himself the emperor on behalf of the Wei Dynasty. The two processes are surprisingly similar, and it can be said that the Sima family copied them.

Cao's family

This result can also be said to be God's retribution for the Cao family." He paused and took another breath, "Although I am just a servant, I started working earlier than you.

I know everything. Since ancient times, the winners have been princes and the losers have been thieves. Which change of dynasty was not achieved through bloody massacre? As long as the world is peaceful and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, isn't it the same for whoever sits in the world?"

Xie Yi's words were very coherent and logical, which made Dr. Shu look at this old servant who usually didn't say much with new eyes. Seeing Xie Yi's frail body but still trying to keep up his energy to talk, Dr. Shu was extremely surprised.

.This old servant who has been with him for many years has always obeyed his advice and has never said so many words. What happened today? Is there any purpose?

"What exactly do you want to say?"

Xie Yi's eyes were firm, but without any sparkle. He had just talked a lot, but he was obviously tired, and his voice was softer than before: "As an old minister of Cao Wei, you are loyal to Cao Wei. A loyal minister will not serve the two masters. This is understandable.

, but you should not delay the future of your children and grandchildren."

"How do you say this?"

"When the Jin Dynasty was first established, the imperial court followed the six regulations. With Shu'an's talents and reputation, no one in Ruyin could match him, and he fully met the requirements of the imperial court. However, he did not want to become an official. He only wanted to work and study.

.Everyone has an enterprising spirit, why does he have no ambition for fame? Isn’t it very different from your view of the Sima family?

What's the big deal? It's just that he is a filial son and doesn't want to go against your will. Shu An can forget it, but Yan'er... Yan'er's talent, learning and moral character are even worse than his father's. You can't use you again.

My thoughts have delayed Yan'er's fame!" Xie Yi finished the above words with great difficulty, almost word for word.

Dr. Shu sighed and said: "I don't mean to prevent my children and grandchildren from becoming famous. It's just that the imperial court now uses the nine-grade official method to select officials. The entire process is controlled by wealthy nobles. We are from a poor family, even if we become officials.

, you will also be discriminated against and it will be difficult to gain a foothold.”

"Although there are no poor families in the upper class and no gentry in the lower class, those gentry children only know how to eat, drink, have fun, banquet and talk, and do not want to manage government affairs. Although children from poor families cannot become high officials, they can still contribute to the court and the people. You should

Train him to be a learned gentleman, and we must not let Yan'er bury himself in the countryside..." At this point, Xie Yi was out of breath, and only his eyes were still staring at Dr. Shu motionlessly.

Yes, what can't be solved? I am an old minister of the former dynasty, and I swear not to interfere with the two masters. But my children and grandchildren are not the same. They have no reason to be loyal to Cao Wei who has become a thing of the past. Especially Yan'er, he

He was born a subject of the Jin Dynasty, and Cao Wei had nothing to do with him. Although Xie Yi’s words were contrary to Dr. Shu’s

point of view, but Dr. Shu knew that this was what Xie Yi said from the bottom of his heart. He admired the Shu family from the bottom of his heart and had deep feelings for the Shu family. Otherwise, he was already a terminally ill person, how could he spend all his time

The last thing he had to do was to mind other people's business. Maybe these were his last words before his death.

Dr. Shu looked at Xie Yi's dull eyes and comforted him: "Don't worry, I will never interfere with Yan'er's future. Everything is up to him."

The scene on Xie Yi's death day has always lingered in Shu Yan's mind.

After the death of Eunuch Xie, Shu Yan was really relaxed and had more free time. Recently, Dr. Shu really listened to Xie Yi's last words and guided Shu Yan towards becoming an official.

One day, Shu Yan was reading a copy of the "Book of Changes". This was the last book he read among the five classics: "Poetry", "Book", "Li", "Yi" and "Spring and Autumn". "Book of Changes"

It's very abstract and difficult to understand. Fortunately, Dr. Shu was there to guide me.

Shu Yan raised his head and looked at Dr. Shu: "Grandpa, after reading this "Book of Changes", I will finish reading all the "Five Classics".

Since Xie Yi's death, Dr. Shu's spirit has become more and more haggard. Thinking back to the big family of six people back then, now only two grandparents and grandchildren are left, and it is deserted.

"According to the last words of your father-in-law Xie, you must be a learned gentleman and contribute to the country and the people. As a gentleman, you must follow the way of a gentleman. Reading the Five Classics is not enough. You must master the Five Classics and master the six arts.

.”

"What does it mean to understand the Five Classics and the Six Arts?"

"To master the Five Classics means to be proficient in the five classics: "Poetry", "Shu", "Li", "Yi" and "Spring and Autumn"; to master the Six Arts is to be familiar with and master the six kinds of rituals, music, archery, imperial calligraphy, and mathematics.

skill."

"Even if you want to become an official and the court recruits people, you can only use the "Five Classics", and "Five Classics" can be understood in one classic. I now study "Poems", "Books", "Li", "Yi", and "Spring and Autumn".

Once you are familiar with it, you are more than enough to deal with the imperial court's recruitment, so what six skills do you need to master?"

"Silly boy, the Five Classics is just a basic book that teaches you how to cultivate yourself and govern the country, apart from dealing with the imperial court's tactics. The Six Arts are several skills that you must master to settle down in the world." Dr. Shu took a sip of tea and gave Shu Yan some advice.

Got a rough solution

Explanation: "'Li' means etiquette. If you don't learn etiquette, you can't establish it. It includes five kinds: auspicious etiquette, unlucky etiquette, good etiquette, military etiquette, and guest etiquette. Since you are familiar with the "Book of Rites", you can naturally master these five etiquettes.

Lack of practice in various situations.

No matter how familiar you are with reading, if you haven't practiced it, you will be in a hurry when the time comes. "Le" pays attention to five tones, eight tones, and twelve rhythms. The five tones are Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu; the eight tones are gold,

Eight kinds of stone, gourd, leather, silk, bamboo, soil and wood

Things that make sounds; the twelve rhythms are divided into the six rhythms of Yang sound and the six Lu of Yin sound. The six rhythms of Yang sound are Huangzhong, Taixi, Guxi, Ruibin, Yize, Wushe, and the six Lu of Yin sound are Dalu.

Ying Zhong, Nan Lu, Lin Zhong, Zhong Lu, Jia Zhong. These five tones and eight tones,

The twelve laws are interdependent and ever-changing. "Shoo" means archery. Archery can not only strengthen the body, but also improve your demeanor. The most important thing is that it can be used for self-defense at critical moments. Archery includes five techniques: white arrow, participation

Lian, Yanzhu, Xiang

Chi, well instrument. "Yu" means driving. This skill is very important. Although we can't afford a carriage, it is best to master it, maybe we can use it in the future. It also includes five techniques: Ming and Luan,

Chasing the Water, Guojunbiao, Dance

Jiaoqu, Zhuqinzuo. "Shu" refers to calligraphy. Needless to say, you are already quite proficient in it. "Shu" refers to the algorithm of nine numbers. It includes nine items: Fangtian, Libu, Difference, Shaoguang,

Business merit, average loss, profit, equation,

Pythagorean. The number of nine can best reflect a person's mental agility. Compared with the other five arts, the number of nine is the most widely used. It is used by everyone from princes to merchants. It is the most basic skill in life, involving

to every aspect of life.”

After listening to this, Shu Yan asked with some confusion: "Grandpa, among these six arts, apart from 'ritual', 'calligraphy' and 'number', I haven't seen you use the other three?"

Dr. Shu laughed loudly: "That's right! I have never been exposed to these three items of 'Le', 'Yu', and 'Shooting' in my life. I only know some simple principles. For me, it is a pity. But

Not everyone can master the Five Classics and the Six Arts. I think back when I was in the capital, I knew many princes, grandsons, and famous civil and military figures, but there were not many people who could truly master the Five Classics and the Six Arts."

"So how do you learn these skills?"

"It's easy to say it's easy, but it's hard to say it's difficult. Among the six arts, you have already mastered two of them, 'ritual' and 'script'; I can also teach you this 'number'; as for the other three, I am powerless.
