Chapter 54: Debate over Taixue (2)
After hearing Wang Dun's words, Shi Chong felt that he had made a mistake and said sternly: "A scholar should be rich and stable in status and status. How can I compare myself with these two poor people!"
After listening to Shi Chong's words, Shu Yan and everyone present were in an uproar: You know, as scholars, how glorious it is to be able to enjoy the worship of Confucius in the Imperial Academy together with Confucius! But this Shi Chong did not look down on Confucius at all.
Those two poor and high-ranking disciples refused to join them, which shows how arrogant this person is.
As soon as Shi Chong and Wang Dun walked out of the room, they saw a young doctoral student approaching. He bowed down and called Shi Chong "Uncle Shi" and Wang Dun "Uncle".
This imperial student, like the other doctoral disciples, all wore uniform uniforms. At first glance, Shu Yan thought this doctoral disciple looked so familiar. After a closer look, "Ah", it turned out to be Shi De. He was indeed there.
Taixue reads.
Shu Yan couldn't help but secretly thought: Shi De was actually able to talk to such a wealthy family of the A clan, and he was also related to them. Sure enough, the wealthy families had contacts with each other.
However, although they are both wealthy families, in terms of wealth and status, Shi De's family is far behind Shi Chong and Wang Dun's family. Shi De's mother is also from the Langya Wang family, but although they are from the same family, her mother is not the same as Wang Dun and Wang Dao.
His relatives were far away. When Shi De's family came to Beijing, his father Shi Hui lured Shi De to meet Wang Dun's family in order to gain influence from the Wang family. Therefore, Shi De could call Wang Dun "uncle".
Why did Shi De also know Shi Chong? Because Shi Hui served as a Sanqi minister beside the emperor, and Shi Chong not only served as a minister, but also served as a regular Sanqi minister. Both of them were Sanqi, but Sanqi
The status of a regular knight is higher than that of a casual knight. Because Shi De's father and Shi Chong were colleagues, Shi De also got to know Shi Chong.
"Hey, isn't this Shu Wenxue?" Shu Yan was thinking to himself when he suddenly heard someone calling him. When he turned around, he saw that it was Shi De.
Shu Yan cupped his hand and said, "It is indeed Mr. Shi. Congratulations to Mr. Shi for being able to study at Imperial College."
Shi De said proudly after hearing this: "This Taixue is indeed a first-class institution. I have studied here for several years and have made great progress. The beauty of it is hard to describe. It is not comparable to the rural schools in our hometown and the rotten Confucianism."
"Yes." After many years, Shi De was still so outspoken.
Shu Yan just walked through several study rooms and peeked in secretly. He found that these imperial students were discussing the scriptures they had learned in twos and threes. The old doctors sat there and did not interfere. In his imagination, as the top students
Taixue should be an extremely rigorous place, but here people can debate freely, which is completely different from what he imagined. So he asked: "Is this a first-class university of yours such a chaotic and unorganized place?"
?”
"Hahaha, Shu Wenxue, you don't understand this. This is what I call the 'beauty'. What our Taixue emphasizes is the free academic style. The old doctors only make general comments on each classic.
Explain, and then leave it to the students to debate freely, allowing students to learn from each other's strengths, help each other, and improve during the debate."
"I have learned a lot!" Shu Yan wondered. Although this teaching method was not rigorous, it was novel and brilliant.
"Oh, Shu Wenxue, I'm also surprised. Didn't you work as a literary publisher in our hometown? Why did you end up in the capital?"
"I have been promoted as the Xiaolian of our Ruyin, so the people who came to Beijing to take the exam just arrived in the past two days."
"Oh, Shu Xiaolian, come to Beijing to take the exam! It turns out that this is the only way for you to become an official from a poor family." Shi De chuckled, "Shu Wenxue, I suddenly remembered that last year you asked me for donations to build Xiang University.
I wonder how the construction is going?"
Shu Yan thought, although he was arrogant when talking about the establishment of Xiang School, he still had to thank him, "Thanks to your generosity, now many Xiang schools in Ruyin have been rebuilt, and the students in our hometown have books to read."
Read it.”
"That's good, but then again, what kind of students can those rotten scholars in our hometown teach? It's just a few words, what else can they do? Any school in Luoyang is better than
It’s strong there.”
"You have only been in Luoyang for a few days. Don't belittle the Confucian scholars in your hometown. Are there no famous Confucian scholars in your hometown?"
"Oh, I forgot about your family..." Shi De then remembered that Shu Yan's grandfather was a famous Confucian of his generation and once served as a doctor of the Five Classics in Taixue. At this time, he discovered that there was a young man beside Shu Yan.
He asked, "Who is this brother? Also, how did you get in through the gate of Taixue? I just saw you coming in with Shi Shizhong and General Wang. Do you know them?"
Just as Shu Yan was about to speak, Xiao Mo said proudly: "My name is Xiao Mo, and I am not a member of the Luo City family. Just now you asked us how we came in? Humph, of course we walked in, couldn't we have flown in? You
What we just said about 'being in the middle' and 'not being in the middle' has nothing to do with what we want to do!"
Shi De was speechless. Shu Yan couldn't help but smile after hearing this, "Mr. Shi, I won't disturb you to continue your studies. Let's take our leave!"
"Wait a minute." Shi De stopped Shu Yan, with a hint of teasing in his words, "Shu Wenxue, I will take the exam in a few days, I hope you can pass it smoothly. In addition, in a few days, I will have completed the study, and will soon
I’m going to be an official, but I don’t know if you can come into the court with me. I hope you won’t be sent home like most filial and honest people!”
"I wish!"
In fact, what Shi De said is true. Being promoted as a filial and honest person does not mean that he will be able to enter the official position smoothly, but the children of wealthy families are quite sure about becoming an official. Xiao Mo saw Shi De's arrogance and felt very unfair.
.
When Shu Yan saw Shi Chong and Wang Dun walking around in a circle and about to go out of the gate, he quickly pulled Xiao Mo, and the two followed the group out, and then went back to the inn to rest.
"Brother Shi De, what are you doing standing still? Come and debate, we are waiting for you here."
Shi De was still looking at the backs of Shu Yan and Xiao Mo when he heard someone calling him and hurriedly responded: "Oh, Brother Xun, here we come."
"We also went on to discuss what Confucius said, 'Only women and villains are difficult to raise. Those who are close will be inferior, and those who are far away will be resentful'."
The so-called "Brother Xun" is named Xun Bao, and he is also a son of a wealthy family. He is more articulate: "I think Confucius said, 'It is difficult to raise a woman with a villain. If you are close, you will not have grandchildren, and if you are far away, you will resent.'
"Women" refers to all women. What the Master means is that only women and villains are difficult to get along with. If you get close to them, they will become rude, if you stay away from them, they will complain."
Shi De shook his head: "No, Master definitely did not mean to despise women. This sentence should be understood in conjunction with the above text. The word '女' here should be commonly used as the word 'Ru', which means 'you', specifically referring to
What Zigong said means that Zigong is as difficult to get along with as a villain, and his husband
If the Confucius is close to him, he will be rude to the Master; if he is far away from him, he will complain about the Master. Reading through "The Analects", we will know that among Confucius's students, Zigong is the most assertive and loves to refute the Master.
The student and the master showed his dissatisfaction with him many times in his words."
These Tai students are very interested in the most controversial words in "The Analects of Confucius". At this time, they also came around to discuss.
A white son next to him said: "No, no, you are not right, the meaning of" and 'here is the meaning of marrying.
Wife. When they get close to their daughter -in -law, they will be rude; alienate them, they will complain. "
Everyone listened, and they all smiled.
Xun Bao reiterated: "I think the Master here must be all women. Women are difficult to please. When she gets close to her, she has to enter the foot. When she alienates, she will grievance.
The villain is often Qi Qi ', and it can be said in other words. Men are frank, women are often Qi Qi. "
Shi De laughed: "You have to be careful, Confucius has been in infamous because of" women and villains that are hard to support. Fortunately, you are unknown, otherwise the saliva will drowns you. I
I feel that in the era of Confucius, the text is not mature, and many of them are fake characters.
The word "Sun" is not the story of the descendants, but the word "Xun" that is humble. So since the 'Sun' and 'Xun' are fake, then
"
Everyone nodded and said it was.
The son -in -law said: "Most women are what Brother said, this is good, but there are exceptions, and I have encountered it. Although this person is not a heroine, it can definitely be said to be the gentleman of the woman.
. ""
Xun Bao showed his respect for the white son of Baiyi: "Brother Xia is a few years older than us and has rich experience.
Brother Xia Hou smiled slightly: "Gao Jian can't talk about it, but my Xia Houmen grows in your age, and there are some experiences."
Shi De Dao: "Brother Xia Hou Junior, a few years ago, he followed the army to participate in the battle of Pingwu. If you are going to Tai Ping today, come to Tai Ping to study again.
I admire it. "
Xia Houmen shook his head with a smile: "If you want to mention it, it is just that his father participated in the battle of Pingwu, and Uncle Shi Chong also participated, so I went with the big son of the Shi family, but from
I haven't reached the battlefield, but I just played water on the mountains on the north bank of the Yangtze River. I did not stand for the size of the court. Later, my father was still young, so I sent me to Taixue. "
,: "Now, there are many people who have come to Tai Xue for a few years, but my brother can not learn from your experience. For example, what kind of strange woman you just talked about, you might as well listen to it for us to listen to it.
listen."
"Okay." Xia Houmen agreed, "That year, in Ruyin, I and Shi Gongzi met a strange woman ..."
Shi De he heard that it was his own hometown. I just wanted to listen carefully. Suddenly he heard a "pop", and the old doctor made a case with a ruler and drank: "The classroom only discusses the issues related to this scripture, and the topic is not allowed.
