Although this level of etiquette is a bit difficult.
But it was hard to stop Chen Yuan from cheating.
Because Chen Yuan knows what to do to pass the level.
The most difficult part of these five levels of fantasy is that it blocks self-consciousness, leaving only the most instinctive consciousness deep inside.
As a result, many people will naturally not be able to survive.
Chen Yuan entered Lidaoguan.
What is etiquette?
"Li" originally refers to offering sacrifices to gods and worshiping gods.
The norms gradually formed in ancient sacrificial activities evolved into the hierarchy of ancient society, with corresponding codes of conduct and moral norms.
To put it bluntly, it is a set of social order, which is called etiquette.
Also known as etiquette.
This is the biggest conflict between Confucianism and Legalism. Confucianism wants to use rituals to govern a country, while Legalism wants to use laws to govern a country.
Etiquette and law are combined, and you can kill people.
This time at the Li Dao level, two stories appeared.
One was Zengzi who was avoiding the banquet, and the other was Zhang Liang's apprenticeship.
Chen Yuan, who has memory, passed the level directly and perfectly.
And it's very fast.
Ever since, everyone saw this scene again.
Without even a single cup of tea, Chen Yuan passed the third level.
At this time, everyone's level of shock increased greatly.
You must know that in Jiantiantai today, the highest level of clearance is only three levels.
Now Chen Yuan has reached it.
As long as Chen Yuan can pass one more level, he will surpass the entire Jiantiantai.
Come to the fourth level, Zhidao Level 1.
There are three stories that appear in this level: Touching the Dragon to Talk about the Queen Mother Zhao, Jiang Taigong Fishing and Sweet Wine No More.
There's not much to say about the first two.
The last story almost made Chen Yuan overturn.
Because I haven’t thought about this for a while.
What is this story like?
Liu Jiao, the younger brother of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, was named Queen of Chu Yuan and was very respectful to Mu Sheng, Shen Gong and others.
Musheng does not drink, so every time King Yuan held a banquet, he would specially prepare sweet rice wine for Musheng.
When his son Wang Wu succeeded to the throne, he started to set up sweet rice wine, but later gradually forgot about it.
Musheng returned home and said, "I should retire. No sweet wine. It means that the King of Chu no longer cares about me. If I don't leave, one day the Chu soldiers may catch me and kill me in half."
.”
So he claimed to be sick and stayed at home.
Duke Shen and Bai Sheng forced him to attend a banquet, and persuaded him: "Have you forgotten the kindness that the late king showed to us? Now the king of Chu occasionally neglects a small courtesy, how can you care about it like this?"
Musheng said: "The Book of Changes said: Zhi Ji is a god. 'Ji' means subtle changes in things. This is a harbinger of good or bad luck. When a gentleman sees 'Ji', he should take action without delay for a day."
The reason why the former king treated us three courteously was to promote morality. Now the King of Chu ignores us because he has forgotten morality. How can we stay with a person who has forgotten morality for a long time? Why am I doing this for a little courtesy?"
So he left on the pretext of illness.
Shen Gong and Bai Sheng stayed. Later, Wang Wu gradually became arrogant and cruel.
Twenty years later, because of his secret collusion with the Empress Dowager Bo, he was removed from Xue County in the East China Sea. Later, he planned to rebel. Duke Shen and Bai Sheng came to remonstrate with him, but the King of Chu did not listen at all. They left the King of Chu in disappointment and lived in seclusion.
The land has gone.
This fully illustrates Mu Sheng's wisdom of knowing the subtleties of his writings and predicting others ahead of others.
Chen Yuan didn't react at first, but then he suddenly remembered this story when he thought of sweet wine.
The main reason is that the whole story is not very famous, and most people really can’t remember it.
Liu Jiao's sons were all mediocre, and so were his grandchildren. It wasn't until Liu Yu that he became so awesome.
Yes, Liu Jiao is Liu Yu's ancestor.
It was Liu Yu, Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty.
Fortunately, this level can be considered passed, but it took a little longer, extending to the time of one stick of incense.
Even so, Wang Yue, Shi A and others were shocked.
Since the establishment of these five levels, many people have cleared three levels in history, but very few have been able to clear four levels.
There are only two in total, one is Li Ying and the other is Zheng Xuan.
Li Ying was hailed as a model for the world. He was on the list for two times of party imprisonment. He was even tortured to death during the second party imprisonment. Therefore, one can imagine Li Ying's reputation among scholars.
Zheng Xuan is even more remarkable.
Zheng Xuan's scholarship was mainly based on ancient classics and also adopted modern classics.
He wrote extensively about Confucian classics and spent his whole life sorting out ancient cultural heritage, bringing Confucian classics into a "mini-unification era."
He is the author of "Seven Political Treatises on Astronomy", "Zhonghou" and other books, with a total of more than one million words. He is known as "Zheng Xue" in the world and is the master of Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty. During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, Zheng Xuan was listed among the 22 "first teachers" , worthy of enjoying the Confucius Temple.
This is an academic master and a master of encyclopedic knowledge.
Because they not only studied the classics, but also understood astronomy, geography, typology, exegesis, phonology, and vocabulary.
Terrible and awesome.
And this person is still alive.
It can be said that Zheng Xuan is the first scholar of Confucian classics in the world today, a leading scholar and a leader in the literary world.
But now that Chen Yuan has passed the fourth level, he is tied with the two to a certain extent.
Don't be dissatisfied, Jian Tiantai Five Paths Illusion Card is recognized as fair by the world.
in a small circle.
Because those who can know Jiantiantai are not ordinary people.
Chen Yuan has now passed the fourth level. Once word spreads, his reputation will definitely increase tremendously.
Wang Yue was also a little uneasy at this time.
"Chen Biejia, are you still going to pass the last level?"
Chen Yuan glanced at Wang Yue, why didn't he break in?
"If I don't intrude, can the old prince let me in and satisfy my request?"
Wang Yue thought for a moment: "Chen Biejia, please wait a moment."
Then, Wang Yue left to find Lao Qinghe King.
Why is this happening?
Because if Chen Yuan continues to intrude, it will not only be bad for Chen Yuan, but it will also be difficult for him to do the Tiantai test.
It would be okay if Chen Yuan didn't pass the fifth level.
But if Chen Yuan really breaks through, what should he do?
Not only did he slap the old Qinghe King in the face, but he also slapped Li Ying and Zheng Xuan in the face, and even slapped the faces of the scholars all over the world.
Because Li Ying and Zheng Xuan can represent the world's Confucian scholars in a sense.
One is a model in officialdom, and the other is a master in learning.
If Chen Yuan really surpasses these two people, all the Confucian scholars in the world will lose face.
In this case, Chen Yuanke would be in danger.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
Those people are very good at doing other things but slandering others.
Wang Yue is also considering the overall situation.
When Wang Yue found Lao Qinghe King, he told the story.
The old prince was also hesitant in his heart.
In fact, King Qinghe originally proposed this condition to reject Chen Yuan.
Because he didn't believe that Chen Yuan could get through.
But looking at the current trend, maybe Chen Yuan can really pass the fifth level.
Once Chen Yuan breaks through, a slap in the face is the next best thing. Another important point is that if someone breaks through the five levels, they will automatically gain the authority of the deputy director of Jiantiantai.
This was stipulated by Emperor Guangwu back then.
Why is this stipulated?
In Liu Xiu's view, if someone can pass the five levels, he is definitely a morally perfect person and a wise person.
Such a person sitting in Jiantiantai will definitely benefit the country of Han Dynasty without any harm.
In fact, Li Ying and Zheng Xuan, who had passed the four levels back then, were also invited to join Jian Tiantai and were willing to give them the authority of deputy director.
However, neither of them had this ambition.
Now King Qinghe is in the dilemma of whether to slap himself in the face or slap others in the face.
After thinking about it, King Qinghe said to Wang Yue: "Go and ask that boy for his opinion. If he is willing to break in, then he can continue to break in. If he doesn't want to break in, forget it. Regardless of whether he wants to break in or not, I will agree to his request."
King Qinghe still decided to slap himself in the face.
After all, we still have to consider the country of Han Dynasty.
Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
That's the best.
Wang Yue returned and directly told Chen Yuan what King Qinghe wanted.
He fully thought that Chen Yuan would not continue to invade.
But he would never have imagined that Chen Yuan still had to pluck wool, so how could he not continue to venture into it.
As for offending the Confucian scholars in the world?
Are there not many people offended?
If you have too many lice, you won’t be itchy; if you have too many debts, you won’t have to worry.
Therefore, Chen Yuandao said: "Master Wang, I am willing to continue to pass the fifth level."
Wang Yue was suddenly surprised and suspicious.
"Chen Biejia, don't you know the pros and cons?"
Chen Yuan waved his hand: "Of course I know the pros and cons of this, but I have my own reasons. I can't let the old prince break his trust to the people of the world."
Seeing what Wang Yue wanted to say, Chen Yuan said directly: "Master Wang, let's go to the last level."
Seeing that Chen Yuan had made up his mind, Wang Yue could not say anything more.
After all, it is their Jiantiantai that allows people to pass the five levels. If people are willing to go through, there is no reason for them to stop them.
So, everyone came to the fifth level.
Before the fifth level, many people had already arrived.
Now everyone in Jiantian Tower has heard that Chen Yuan has passed the fourth level, and this is all to verify whether Chen Yuan can pass the fifth level.
This is a big deal.
Because since its establishment, no one has ever passed the fifth level.
According to Emperor Guangwu, if someone can pass the fifth level, even if he is not a saint, he is not far behind.
At least it is at the level of a disciple of Confucius.
Moreover, they were the most respected disciples, such as Zilu, Yan Hui, Duanmu Ci, etc.
When Chen Yuan saw so many people, he couldn't help but said to Wang Yue: "It seems that all the wise men in Jiantiantai are paying attention to me!"
Wang Yue just smiled and said nothing more.
When he came to the fifth level, Wang Yue did not hesitate too much and directly opened the fifth level of the channel.
Chen Yuanduan sat on the stone platform, waiting for the dense air to fill up.
The next moment, the fantasy begins.
There are four stories in total about this letter: a promise of a thousand pieces of gold, a tree built as a letter, Zengzi killing a pig, and the tail of a pig holding a pillar.
A Promise A Thousand Gold is the story of Ji Bu.
The story of Shang Yang is the story of Shang Yang.
Zengzi's killing of pigs is naturally the story of Zengzi.
There is no need to say more about Obi holding a pillar. It is the story of Obi holding a pillar and being drowned while waiting for someone.
Chen Yuan was familiar with these four stories.
He also knew the specific content very well, so he passed the test very smoothly.
However, this level made Chen Yuan feel a lot in his heart.
It’s about the feeling of integrity.
He found that the ancients really valued integrity.
So what you say must be done, and what you do must be fruitful.
As long as you say it, you must do it.
It looks silly, but in fact it is a kind of rule-abiding spirit.
The rules here refer to a code of conduct, or a contract, recognized by all members of society.
There is a saying that ancient people had a much more contractual spirit than modern people.
Among these four stories, the one about Weisheng Baozhu is especially one.
From a modern perspective, this guy is definitely a fool.
You can completely change the place, so that you can see the person you agreed with without going too far, and it won't delay things.
But why didn't he change places?
This is a kind of deep-rooted integrity, and he is also a very sincere person.
It's where it is and I won't change places.
Society needs people like this who look silly but are actually the backbone of society.
Of course, this kind of spirit needs to be learned, but the specific things you do need to be flexible.
Even Master Confucius, who advocated honesty, sometimes deceived people.
When Confucius was traveling around the country, on his way to Weiguo, he encountered a rebellion by the Gongshu family, and the group was besieged in Pucheng. Confucius sent his disciples to negotiate with the rebels, hoping to be released. The Gongshu family did not embarrass Confucius too much. There was only one
The request is that you cannot help Wei Linggong, so as long as you promise not to go to Chaoge, I can let you go.
Confucius beat his chest and said: Deal! Unexpectedly, as soon as they left Pucheng, Confucius ordered his disciples to hurry up and go to Chaoge.
Zigong quit: Teacher, you see, the rebels trust us so much. They let us go just after making a promise. If we go back on our word, isn’t it a violation of integrity?
Confucius rolled his eyes at Zigong: Can a promise made under coercion count? You can't be honest with such a person! When Chaoge arrived, Confucius immediately encouraged Duke Ling of Wei to kill the uncle.
The spirit must be understood, and things must be done flexibly, as long as they do not violate the original meaning, and cannot be dogmatically copied, otherwise you will become a nerd who studies by rote.
When the dense air dissipated and Chen Yuan's figure was revealed, everyone in the Xindao Palace was shocked.
This Chen Yuan actually passed the fifth level.
And just when everyone was shocked, a loud bell suddenly sounded in the Jiantian Terrace.
The bell rang a total of forty-nine thirty-six times.
Second only to the death of the emperor and the succession of the new emperor to the throne, 5945.
The so-called Nine-Five Flying Dragon is in the sky, which also means the Nine-Five-Year Lord.
Ninety-four, or jumping into the abyss, no blame.
Thirty-six bells ring, which means the first person to pass the fifth level appears.
At this time, even the old King Qinghe couldn't sit still.
After passing five levels, although one cannot be called a saint, he can already be compared to a sage.
For example, Yan Hui, Zi Lu, Duan Mu Ci and so on.
Even as the old Qinghe King, I would never dare to treat such a person lightly.
And the Emperor will also come.
What does it mean that such a wise man is born?
It represents the virtues of the imperial court.
This was of great significance to the imperial court which had just been ravaged by the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Because today's court is in great need of such people or things to avert a serious political crisis.
It's a pity that Chen Yuan is not aware of this problem yet. He just wants to pass the five levels and get the information he wants.
As he passes the five levels, the impact will completely change his original plan.
If Chen Yuan wants to return to Jingzhou again, it will be as difficult as going to heaven.
