Chapter 8: Tongsheng Wenwei, success!
Jiang Han felt that the entire academy was shaken, and the surrounding space seemed to be distorted, and then an invisible force enveloped it.
He looked up at the icon, and suddenly saw a soft orange light shining down from the icon, and his consciousness gradually relaxed.
In Jiang Han's consciousness, he seemed to see a mountain and a temple. A middle-aged man in Confucian robes stood above, and the light from his body shone on the world.
Immediately afterwards, the environment began to distort, and he saw the sky again, which was dotted with nine dim stars. Then, the first star in his skull emitted a faint light, and the light gradually became brighter.
Jiang Han looked at the star and felt his mind became clearer.
When the light disappeared, the temples and saints in the consciousness gradually disappeared. Only the nine stars in the skull still existed.
Tong Sheng Wen Wei, accomplished!
Jiang Han opened his eyes and clenched his fists.
Is this Tong Sheng Wen Wei? Why does it feel like nothing has changed?
Do you want to try somersaulting?
Yin Xuezheng looked at Jiang Han in silence, who was eager to try, and reminded: "After obtaining the Tongsheng Wenshi, you can see things with clear eyes, even in the dark night."
Jiang Han suddenly realized that the magic of Tongsheng Wenwen was his eyes, but what about scholar Wenwen?
Yin Xuezhengdao said: "You have such a talent for poetry, and you also have a literary degree. You are qualified to study in the mountains of books, and you are very likely to develop a great righteousness in the future. In the future, you need to work harder to study the classics of saints."
Haoran righteousness is not just an adjective. In the Confucian and Taoist system, it is a supernatural power that transcends nature.
It is said that those who cultivate great righteousness will not dare to be approached by evil spirits.
Even a king cannot kill someone with great righteousness for no reason, otherwise he will suffer backlash.
However, since the emergence of Confucianism and Taoism, there have been very few people who have cultivated great righteousness.
"The student knows that he will study hard in the future." Jiang Han nodded. He seized this opportunity and immediately asked: "Master Xuezheng, although the student has become a child, he still has some doubts. I would like to ask Master Xuezheng for advice.
"
"You ask." Yin Xuezheng said warmly.
Jiang Handao: "Among the levels of Confucianism and Taoism, there are Tongsheng, Xiucai, Juren, Gongshi, etc. How can a student obtain Tongsheng's degree without taking the imperial examination?"
He was a prince-in-law. In Daxia, prince-son-in-law could not take part in the imperial examinations or be an official.
Yin Xuezheng smiled and said: "It's normal for you to have such confusion. Do you know how Confucian students practiced before the imperial examination appeared?"
Jiang Han shook his head and said he didn't know.
Yin Xuezhengdao: "The way of practice pioneered by Confucian sages had nothing to do with the way of imperial examination, but related to Wenquxing. It was only after the pioneering of generations after generations that the way of imperial examination came into being today."
"The original Confucian and Taoist cultivation system did not follow the path of imperial examinations. The first nine grades were not called Tongsheng, but called Kaiqiao."
"Enlightenment?" Jiang Han was surprised.
"Yes, the ninth rank opens the mind, the eighth rank cultivates the body, the seventh rank establishes destiny, the sixth rank serves heaven, and the fifth rank is a gentleman... This is the original Confucian and Taoist cultivation system. After the imperial examination came out, the road to imperial Confucianism and Taoism was opened up, and the imperial examination was used to test
Gradually, the title of scholar, scholar, scholar, etc. was replaced by enlightenment, self-cultivation, and destiny... But this does not mean that the original path of Confucianism and Taoism has disappeared, and Taixue University has retained the original method of practice."
Yin Xuezheng explained: "It is indeed the most convenient way to practice Confucianism and Taoism on the way to the imperial examination, but it is not the only way. The other way is to use Wenquxing to practice and open up a literary palace. This is also the path of Confucianism and Taoism still used by Taixue. Scholars
After being blessed by a saint, you can obtain a literary position without the need for imperial examination certification, but there is no merit. However, you can open a literary palace, and each literary palace has extraordinary power."
Jiang Han suddenly realized, so he just saw nine stars in his consciousness. Could it be that they were Wen Gong?
After I was cleansed by literary energy, one of the stars dimmed, which should mean that I successfully entered Tongsheng, which is the ninth level of enlightenment.
"Sir Xuezheng, how will the student practice next?" Jiang Han asked respectfully. Both his father and eldest brother were vulgar martial artists, so there was no way they could teach him this.
Yin Lushan was very satisfied with Jiang Han's studious attitude and said with a smile: "First, read the classics of the saints diligently until you know them by heart. Secondly, you can write more poems. If your poems are recited, you can also consolidate your own realm and strengthen your literary skills."
The strength of the palace.”
"Good poems and essays have literary spirit and can also help spiritual practice. For example, poems can be divided into five realms: leaving the county, going around the house, hearing about the state, ruling the country, and spreading it to the world."
"It seems like the poem you just wrote just now is at least as good as leaving the county."
I see! So as long as I take out all the poems of Li Bai and Du Fu and show them to others, sooner or later I will be able to reach the first level of cultivation? Jiang Han said gratefully: "Thank you Master Xuezheng for teaching me."
Yin Xuezheng smiled and stroked his beard, feeling even more satisfied with Jiang Han. People say Jiang Han is a dandy, but I think that is not true. He is polite, polite and extremely humble.
Yin Xuezheng said: "After today, I will let Taixuefu grant you a student status. You must come to Taixuefu for at least seven days every month to attend classes, and you can receive a grain of rice... Now you can walk freely in Taixuefu.
Close the door and lock it.”
Only attending classes seven days a month? This is too conscientious. Jiang Han said happily: "Then the students will go outside for a walk."
…
Since Yin Xuezheng had expelled all the noble disciples, it was quiet outside the Confucian Sage Temple.
Jiang Han took Zhou Hu to visit the Taixue Academy, feeling quite comfortable. After confirming the scholar's position, Princess Ningyue will marry to the Duke of Wei, and she will change from a son-in-law to a consort. Even if Princess Ningyue is more aggressive,
I would never dare to raise a noodle head in the palace of Duke Wei.
This will prevent you from cuckolding yourself.
And he also found another way - Confucianism and Taoism.
Thinking about these things in his mind, Jiang Han felt happy.
The Confucian Sage Temple is dedicated to Confucian saints. There are herbs planted outside, but the walls on all sides are covered with red paint, and a layer of rice paper is stuck on the east wall.
At this time, the cold wind passed by, making the paper on the red wall crackle.
"Young Master, I heard that that is the red wall of Taixue University. Only those who have served as officials, made meritorious service, or become a great Confucian can write poems on it." Zhou Hu pointed at the red wall and introduced: "Young Master, wait until
With the title of Jinshi, you can also write poems on it and be famous for future generations."
"Why do I have to wait until I have a Jinshi degree to write? Can't I write now?" Jiang Han raised his eyebrows and took a closer look. There were some poems posted on the wall, all with signatures and seals. Most of them were celebrities from Taixue University.
Most of the poems written by Confucius express the idea of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country.
This wall reminded Jiang Han of the anti-poem written by Song Jiang on the wall in "Water Margin". Would you like to write one yourself?
"I heard that only people with high moral standing or talents can write poems on this. Otherwise, even if you write it, you will be humiliating yourself. Master, let's go!" Zhou Hu said.
Jiang Han looked at Zhou Hu with a half-smile but not a smile: "What? You don't believe that your young master is talented? Didn't you see the poem that the young master wrote today?"
Zhou Hu looked at the sky: "This... this..."
"Zhou Hu, get your pen!" Jiang Han said.
