"Here, here, it's Lord Fei from the Ministry of Rites..."!
There was a commotion in the crowd, and many people let out a low voice.
Soon, chaos occurred. Many officers came out and made a way out. Many people retreated one after another, so naturally they could not help but scream.
Fei Hong sat in the sedan chair and turned a deaf ear to hear the screams and scolding outside. The sedan chair entered the Confucius Temple. Then, adults from various ministries in Nanjing came one after another.
The roads became increasingly congested, but fortunately, there was no trouble for the service to maintain order.
As for Wang Shouren and Xu Qian, they arrived late and finally arrived after the time of Mao.
As soon as they arrived, there was a cheer from the crowd. This time everyone was obedient and there was no need to be driven away by the service. Naturally, someone gave up a way. Nanjing is one of the birthplaces of Wangxue. Wangxue is the most prosperous, and Wang Shouren
The status in Wangxue is Cheng Zi and Zhu Zi in Wangxue, and Xu Qian is also the most popular figure in Wangxue.
Many people took some spontaneous respect to the two of them. Even when Wang Shouren's sedan chair passed by, many people bowed to Wang Shouren's sedan chair.
After entering the Confucius Temple, many people were already gathered together.
When we came to the officials, officials, many great scholars, and even some students, we were invited to come here, and there were no greetings. When we met in such a solemn occasion, we could just signal our heads.
As for the officials in Confucius Temple, the pressure is quite high at this time, because time is short and there is not much time to prepare, and there are too many people who are offering sacrifices. Many officials are afraid of some trouble and pass by carefully
share.
But everyone is a person who understands the rules and follows the steps, first led by the officials, then the ministers of various departments, and then entered one after another according to the grade, first entering the Dacheng Hall, and everyone was divided into trains to burn incense, and then the music was rituals.
, The so-called "hearing music and knowing virtue, watching the dance, knowing rituals and benevolence, being polite and upright, and being upright, and being harmonious and cultivated." Therefore, this dance music is the top priority of sacrifice. In a short time, the music of the Dacheng Palace music array
The male dancer in the formation danced gracefully in Confucian robe.
But this scene really blinded Xu's eyes. It was okay to dance, but a group of big men with wide sleeves jumped out with unshaven beards and danced, which really made Xu's appetite.
After the rituals and music, it is a sacrifice. This sacrifice is originally the hand of the Ministry of Rites. The so-called sacrifice is to be spoken for ghosts and gods on the one hand, but on the other hand, it also means that the ritual officials who are listening to themselves are sonorous and the tone in the hall is melodious: "Wen"
Holy ancestor, benevolence to Haiyu…”
This lengthy sacrifice took a stick of incense, and finally ended with the prayer of the prayer.
After the tribute, the officials and students all respectfully performed the student ceremony. Then they turned to the temple to worship the ancestors of the saints. After a great ceremony, the atmosphere was tense. Many people were already a little tired, and many people
His forehead was already soaked with sweat.
After worshiping the ancestors of Qisheng Temple, the ritual officials asked you to rest in the side hall first. Because the worship of Confucius Temple was long and could not end without four or five hours. On official occasions, the rituals of the sacrificial priests
Most of them are young, and there are still a few young people like Xu Qian, so they have to rest for a while.
In the side hall, all the adults sat down one after another. The ritual officials and priests ordered people to bring tea inscriptions. Everyone was not polite and started eating and using them.
At this time, it was a tense moment for everyone. Fei Hong squinted his eyes, and he was as reserved as the Minister of Rites, and he showed a taciturn attitude. In fact, he was secretly guarded in his heart. The sacrificial texts were drafted by the Ministry of Rites, that is,
All of this is also arranged by the Ministry of Rites, but the key to the problem is that the Wangxue officials led by Wang Shouren did not request modification, which means that they seem to agree with the sacrificial text.
If so, everything will follow the script of the Ministry of Rites. Wang Shouren, the leader of Wang Xue, not only wanted to worship Master Zhu, but also praised Master Zhu. However, they made such a big fuss and even treated Master Zhu.
I am so respectful that I also call him the wise master. Wouldn't I be afraid of slapping myself in the face?
You know, other things can be discussed carefully in this era, but if you make compromises in political and academic terms, this is a very taboo thing. The debate between Wang Xue and Neo-Confucianism is precisely because the two concepts go against each other and are incompatible with water and fire.
Even the basic purpose is completely different, so there is such a sharp dispute. Once you recognize Master Zhu's lofty status and call him the role model of the master of all ages. Since you are a teacher, how can you overthrow your disciples and disciples overthrow your mentor?
This.........It seems difficult to explain. There are many people who worship Confucius in Wang Xue, but it is often informal occasions. If you worship the Supreme Master, no one will care about you if you lift your legs and leave. Or if you are a national ceremony, you
When people were mixed up, no one paid attention to it, but today, Wang Shouren's status is obviously inappropriate.
In fact, Fei Hong was confused, and the other officials were confused, and they couldn't help but guess what Wang Shouren and Xu Qian were thinking, but they had no clue at all. In fact, they were sitting! Many of them were Wang Xue officials and
Most of the great scholars were worried about them.
But in their status, in this situation, it seems that they can only be cautious in their words and actions. Everyone is eating tea in silence without saying a word, but their hearts are very complicated. Someone quietly went to see Wang Shourenhe
Xu Qian's face. But Wang Shouren was sitting upright without saying a word. Xu Qian seemed to be very interested in the pastries in Confucius Temple, and it seemed that the young man had a good appetite and was still having a feast there. He was holding a tea inscription in his other hand, as if
Didn't focus on subsequent sacrifices
Zhu Mao, who was in the last seat, seemed calm and composed. The doctor named Wu had already found it. He suddenly discovered that he had found a killer weapon. With this killer weapon, he was not worried at all. What kind of tricks did the person named Xu play?
,It seems that everything is under control, and there is nothing to worry about.
He even looked at Wang Shouren coldly, and a little disdainful look in his heart.
Everything seemed to be very calm. After a short rest for half an hour, the ritual officials came in and asked you to go to the left and right halls to worship the ancestors. Everyone moved one after another.
The emperor was not anxious about the eunuchs. The princes inside were calm and composed, but they were extremely anxious about the people outside. Although countless students outside were not qualified to participate in such a grand event, they were very concerned about this sacrifice in their hearts.
Someone who was looking forward to the news and had a good time, guessing about where it was going from the sound of rituals and music inside.
"Hurry up, the music is almost over. After this ritual and music, I will worship the most holy master in Dacheng Hall..."
"Oh, right, this is the second ritual music. I think you have already gone to Qisheng Temple. I am afraid that the sacrifices of Qisheng Temple will end in less than half an hour. I want to take another break and prepare to worship the ancestors.
.”
"I just don't know what kind of sacrifices the wise men used, and this sacrifice is quite a bit."
"I heard from the people inside that this tribute was always written by the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites followed the steps, it seemed..."
"This may not be true. Don't you know that there is a bonus sacrifice?"
The so-called additional sacrifice is a rule passed down during the Song Dynasty. It was a national sacrifice at that time. The emperor personally led all officials to worship at the Confucius Temple. After reading the sacrificial text, another official suddenly jumped out because of his excitement.
It seems that he felt that the tribute from the Ministry of Rites was not enough to express his respect for the most saints and wise men. At the end, he freely exerted his tribute and continued a few tributes.
At that time, the official situation was so unruly, so how could you say suddenly? The official felt that he was frightened and was worried for a while. Who knew that at that time, he was just a good talk, even the emperor was right.
This was extremely commendable, and even a decree was issued to commend it.
In the Ming Dynasty, there was no such extraordinary thing. However, the Ming Dynasty highly praised the Song Dynasty for its ethics. In a sense, although no one practiced it, this situation was accused by everyone.
It’s just that everyone sticks to the rules and is afraid of becoming the focus of everyone, so they are not out of line.
The court neither supports or encourages such things, because although it is a beautiful talk, if it is encouraged, everyone will follow suit and cause chaos at that time.
At this time, there was another sound of rituals and music, but it was much shorter than before. Everyone had guessed that the sacrifices to ancestors began, and everyone held their breath.
In the temple, the ancestors worshiped each other, and finally arrived at Master Zhu.
Under Master Zhu's bronze statue, the ritual official took out the tribute. This tribute was not out of line.
"The year Dingchou... Dazai's teacher, who started the Hongmeng, founded the Xiude, Shaode Yisheng..."
Judging from the article written by the Ministry of Rites, this time the tribute to Master Zhu obviously gave Master Zhu a lot of face. Among them, Master Dazai blinded all Wang Xuemen's disciples, but scholars all over the world were all students of Cheng and Zhu.
No one can say anything about it when he said he was my teacher, but now Wang Shouren is one of the main priests, which seems worthy of fun.
At this time, when you work as a teacher, you should pay attention to obedience and respect. In other words, your teacher must not be disobedient. Master Zhu is my teacher, and naturally, you are your Wang Shouren's teacher. As a disciple, you will not promote your master.
But the learning is the opposite of the way. This is to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, and the crime is of great consequence!
As for other officials from Wang Xue, they frowned when they heard this sacrificial passage. They couldn't help but look at Fei Hong, the Minister of Rites, but they couldn't help but mutter in their hearts.
Basically, we have to hold meetings every day, and we don’t have much time to write, so we can only write all night long. Alas, finally, we have done it. There is no need for everyone to really not stay up all night, it is very harmful to the body, especially in such a cold day!
