Chapter 835: Famous Teacher, Great Confucianism and Shuzi
When Zhu Ping'an arrived at the main hall, he realized that he was not the only one who came to give lectures today.
There were five ministers waiting in the tea room of the main hall, all of them were famous teachers and Confucian scholars with strong auras.
"Good morning, Mr. Gao..."
Zhu Pingan only recognized Gao Gong among them, so he took the initiative to step forward and greeted Gao Gong warmly.
After all, they are all colleagues in the Hanlin Academy.
However, after Zhu Pingan took the initiative to say hello, Gao Gong still sat there motionless, as steady as a straight and towering mountain. He just nodded arrogantly, with a hint of surprise and contempt in his eyes.
Zhu Ping'an read his subtext from his eyes: Damn it, why did this idiot come to lecture?
Okay, that's pretty high.
After greeting Gao Gong, Zhu Pingan also took the initiative to greet the other four seniors one by one.
Except for a white-haired old official who smiled and said a few words to Zhu Pingan and introduced everyone present to Zhu Pingan, the other three seniors were all aloof, and one of them looked at Zhu Pingan.
His eyes were like those of an enemy.
After being introduced by the white-haired old man, Zhu Pingan discovered that there was a reason why these people were so cold and cold. Their wrists were much bigger than his own.
Needless to say, Gao Gong was famous in his hometown for his "Book of Rites" at the age of seventeen. Now more than 20 years have passed, and Gao Gong's attainments in the Four Books and Five Classics are even better than before, and he is famous in the current dynasty. Now Gao Gong is
A bachelor of lectures at the Hanlin Academy and the chief lecturer of Prince Yu's Mansion came to give lectures to the two princes today. Not only was his name justifiable, but his level was also more than adequate.
The white-haired old official who just smiled and spoke to Zhu Ping'an is the minister of Honglu Temple, a fourth-rank official, Mr. Liu Boxing and Mr. Liu.
Although Mr. Liu's official position is too high, he can be said to be a leading figure in the literary world, and he was the former imperial minister.
Opposite Gaogong, the one with a strong sense of confrontation was Mr. Zhang Wentian, the chief lecturer of Prince Jing's Mansion.
King Yu and King Jing are in a competitive relationship, so it is normal for their chief generals to confront each other.
Zhang Wentian, Mr. Zhang, is a few years younger than Liu Boqing. He is also in his fifties and early sixties. He has gray hair, but every hair is combed meticulously. There is not a stray hair on his head. Outside the slightly sunken eye sockets
, covered with crow's feet, but a pair of black eyes are still as lively as an eagle.
Mr. Zhang has a thin frame, but he has the temperament of a famous scholar, and even the folds on his face seem to reveal wisdom.
A famous scholar.
It's normal to look down on a latecomer like Zhu Pingan, so what Zhu Pingan saw most was Mr. Zhang's chin.
The person who bowed his head to Mr. Zhang was a handsome old official in his forties. He had a sharp face, a straight nose, and a short beard. He looked a bit like Wu Xiubo. He was handsome and elegant.
The handsome old man is both knowledgeable and romantic, but his expression is full of arrogance and arrogance.
This handsome old official is Master Yang Guoliang, a doctor of the Five Classics from the Imperial College.
Doctor of the Five Classics is from the eighth grade official position. Logically speaking, Zhu Ping'an is from the fifth grade, which is much higher than his official position.
But Mr. Yang looked arrogant, as if he had a much higher official position than Zhu Ping'an.
When Zhu Pingan met him just now, he seemed to be indifferent.
Maybe most talented people have character.
Those who can be doctors of the Five Classics in the Imperial Academy are all well-known figures in the academic world, and Mr. Yang is no exception. He is especially famous in the Five Classics. Many senior officials have asked him for the meaning of the Five Classics.
The last official, like Master Zhang Wentian, is also a lecturer in Prince Jing's Mansion. His name is Master Ma Huating. He is in his forties, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, has a handsome demeanor, and always has a smile on his face.
But only when facing Zhu Pingan, there was no smile on his face, more of a look of being ashamed to be with you.
This Mr. Ma is also famous in the academic world, especially in education and writing. His annotations on Zhu Xi's "Collected Commentary on the Four Books" became an important reference book for the imperial examinations at that time, and were also appreciated by Emperor Jiajing.
He praised him, and therefore transferred Master Ma to Prince Jing's Mansion to serve as Prince Jing's lecturer.
Zhu Ping'an, who was vaguely rejected by everyone, became a little transparent in the tea room. He sat calmly in the corner, poured himself a cup of tea, and watched several adults chatting and laughing happily.
I just poured myself a cup of tea.
Someone came into the tea room again.
It's King Jing.
Although Zhu Ping'an didn't recognize him, he could tell from his clothes that he was a prince, but he didn't know whether he was Prince Yu or Prince Jing.
"Zai Zhen has met all of you and took the trouble to come to the main hall to lecture on the sutras despite your busy schedule. Zai Zhen is extremely grateful."
King Jing walked into the tea room and did not go further in. Instead, he stood respectfully at the door, bowed and saluted, and said hello to Zhu Ping'an and the other six people sitting in the tea room.
"King Jing is really offended by this."
In the tea room, Mr. Liu and others all stood up and returned the courtesy, as if Uncle Liu had visited the thatched cottage three times. Their faces were flushed and excited. A prince who might inherit the throne in the future treated them with such respect and courtesy. How could they not help them?
So emotional.
Zhu Ping'an also stood up and returned the courtesy.
"My dear master, Lord of Heaven and Earth, all of you who come to the main hall to lecture are all teachers from Zai Zhen, so you can naturally accept this gift from Zai Zhen. Master Zhang, Master Ma, Master Liu, Master Yang, and Master Gao." King Jing insisted and only smiled after finishing the salute.
Then he walked into the tea room, first said hello to Zhang Wentian and Ma Huating, the two bachelor's lecturers of Prince Jing's Mansion, and then said hello to Liu Boxing, Yang Guoliang and Gao Gong in order of age.
"This is Mr. Zhu Ping'an. Zai Zhen has heard Mr. Zhu's name for a long time. His father has used Mr. Zhu to inspire me and my brother many times. Mr. Zhu is about the same age as Zai Zhen and his brother Huang. He comes from a poor family and studies.
The conditions are far inferior to those of my brother and I, but we relied on our own abilities all the way to become the number one scholar in high school at a young age, and now we are a fifth-grade Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. It really makes Zai Zhen ashamed that he asked Master Zhu to teach him today. Zai Zhen is determined
I will listen attentively."
After King Jing said hello to Gao Gong and others in turn, he came to Zhu Ping'an again, smiled and bowed his hands in greeting, and his words were elegant and polite.
Zhang Wentian, Ma Huating and Yang Guoliang on the side couldn't help frowning when they saw King Jing thinking so highly of Zhu Pingan, and their faces darkened. They felt that Zhu Pingan was so virtuous and capable, and that he was completely unworthy of King Jing's treatment. They looked at Zhu Pingan's
His eyesight is even worse.
"King Jing is so complimentary. I feel ashamed for being safe. I don't dare to give you any advice. Today I just hope to communicate and learn from Prince Jing and Prince Yu."
In full view of everyone, Zhu Pingan stood up calmly and bowed in return.
Seeing this, the faces of Zhang, Ma, Yang and others became even more gloomy, and the looks they looked at Zhu Ping'an were even more unkind. King Jing is so polite to you, but you are not grateful and shed tears!!!
You are a kid who relies on your words, flattery, and opportunism to get to the top, and you are so greedy for money that you are not willing to mess with pigs!
