Chapter 1637: What is the basis of the sutras?
When Pang Tong heard about Xu Yue, he was also excited. He rubbed his hands repeatedly as if he had seen something delicious, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing! If this book is completed, all farmers in the world will benefit from the Lord''s favor." also!"
Fei Qian smiled and nodded.
Pang Tong smiled, but quickly glanced at Fei Qian, and something seemed to flash in his eyes.
Fei Qian didn''t notice. He just looked down at the various important documents delivered from all levels. He suddenly pointed at one of them and said: "Qinglong Temple lacks beam wood? Wait for it to be transferred from Sichuan?"
Pang Tong stretched out his hand to take the document, glanced at it, and explained: "What I know about this... is that there is a shortage of beams in the main hall... Chang''an City originally had some beams in reserve, but these... the ones with the right length are slightly They were damaged beyond use, and the remaining ones were basically smaller...and I couldn''t find suitable ones nearby, so I wanted to let Sichuan and Shu people see if they had any..."
"Transporting huge trees and beams from Sichuan and Sichuan?" Fei Qian pinched the beard above his chin and pondered.
Pang Tong nodded, somewhat unconcerned. Because not only the Han Dynasty, but also the Qin Dynasty did this. After all, there have been human activities in Guanzhong since the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. Palaces, cities, etc. were constantly built, and all the better giant trees around the Qinling Mountains were basically cut down. If we talk about fish that slipped through the net, there must be some leftover, but these must be in places that are quite difficult to find, or in cliffs, where it is impossible to cut down at all.
So once a palace was built, it became a common practice to mobilize giant trees from Sichuan, Sichuan or surrounding areas.
"This matter will be postponed for now..." Fei Qian said slowly, "Daliang... I want Ling Ming to try a new method first..."
Since the establishment of the workshop in Binh Duong, Fei Qian has been constantly trying building materials similar to cement concrete. However, most of them were used on walls before and were not load-bearing beams. The quality was not very satisfactory at first, but after experience After so many updates and experiments, Fei Qian also wants to see if new materials can replace the old wooden frames and reduce the loss of trees, especially huge trees like main beams. It does not mean that they can grow in ten or eight years. It even takes hundreds of years to complete, and it is indeed a pity to cut it down once it is cut down.
“This…” Pang Tong hesitated.
Fei Qian knew what Pang Tong was hesitating about, so he said: "If the existing main beams can be used to build side halls, build them first... Put the main hall at the back and try it first... If it really doesn''t work, then change the side halls to be the main ones." It’s just a temple, it’s just a Qinglong Temple anyway…”
Pang Tong thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I will follow your lord''s wishes..."
When talking about Qinglong Temple, the topic could not help but turn to the study of Confucian classics. Fei Qian and Pang Tong started chatting sentence by sentence while reviewing the text.
To conduct a discussion, naturally there must be a moderator. This moderator is not like the kind from later generations, who just make an introduction and then let the big guys fight among themselves. Instead, they must have some background, otherwise what will the big guys say? , the host always looks confused, doesn’t he lose his own face?
?However, it is obvious that the position of host cannot be easily given to outsiders, otherwise any problems will arise on the spot and it will not end well, so you must first choose from within your own faction.
"Although "Poetry" is not established in the academy, it has been widely circulated..." Pang Tong gathered up the manuscripts he had just approved, put them aside, took a new volume, opened it, looked up and down, and continued He said, "Poetry originally belonged to three schools. Now that "Mao Shi" is flourishing, all three schools are in decline. Among them, Qi Shi is at the bottom, which is a little bit..."
"Qi Shi..." Fei Qian also said, "Success is based on yin and yang, failure is based on the five elements... Nowadays, it is reasonable to decline..."
Pang Tong laughed and nodded.
"Qi Shi" was passed down by Yuan Gu, a native of Qi. However, "Qi Shi" divided into multiple factions during the inheritance process, the most prominent of which was the Yi Feng faction. Their most notable feature was that they interpreted the "Poetry" Combined with the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, using Yin-Yang and Five Elements to express the words in the Book of Songs is indeed somewhat absurd from a historical perspective, but it truly reflects the trajectory of Confucian scholars pursuing power, fame, and fortune.
The achievement of Qi Shi is in the aspect of Yin Yang and Five Elements, but its decline is also due to this. Although at the beginning, the evolution direction of Qi Shi was generally consistent with the trend of officialization of Confucianism in the Han Dynasty, and it became the most effective pass for Confucian scholars to enter official careers. After the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were many people who became high-ranking officials through the treatment of "Qi Shi", but Because in the process of dissemination of "Qi Shi", the chapters and sentences have become increasingly complicated, and superstitious elements such as yin and yang prophecies have also increased day by day, resulting in huge problems in the inheritance. It has lost its original academic true value and has become completely idealistic. , was gradually not accepted by others. Therefore, in the inheritance process of the three poems of "Qi Shi", "Lu Shi" and "Han Shi", Qi Shi was the first to decline.
"Fu family..." Fei Qian shook his head and said, "Unless he died, there would be no Qi Shi..."
At present, the most famous heirs of Qi Shi are the Fu Wan family. However, since the decline of Fu Wan''s family, there is only one young Fu Dian left. He must not be able to stir up the whole family of Qi Shi. After that, Qi Shi was considered to be the last one.
Pang Tong nodded, suddenly thought of something, raised his head and said: "This Qinglong Temple discussion, Qi Shi... Mao''s poems are the most popular at the moment... By the way, Liang Dao is good at poetry, so he might as well..."
"Liang Dao?" Fei Qian also stopped writing and asked, "Let Liang Dao hold poetry theory?"
Pang Tong said: "Liang Taoism was passed down from his father to Xie Ye in Jiujiang..." Jiujiang Xie Manqing was good at speaking "Mao Shi" and gave exegesis for "Mao Shi". Jia Qu''s ancestor also learned poetry from Jiujiang Xie Manqing. , so it can be considered that the inheritance is orderly and somewhat follow-up.
"Jiujiang Xie..." Fei Qian said, "Forget it, let''s write to Liang Dao to inform you of the matter and make more preparations... This "Book"..."
When Pang Tong saw Fei Qian looking over, he waved his hand and said: "I can''t do it with Shu... If Lu Ziqian is still there... Besides, I wonder if Youruo is good at it?" Among the people in the Eastern Han Dynasty who were good at "Shu" since Ouyang, They spread out and became a battlefield for many companies to compete for superiority. Pang Tong said that he was not good at reading. It did not mean that Pang Tong did not know the scriptures in the book, but that he did not have the skills in this area.
In comparison, Xun''s family is more famous. After all, Xun Shuang published a book called "Shang Shu Zheng Jing", which is widely circulated. It can be said that he is quite accomplished in "Book". It can be said that Xun Shuang''s descendants came forward to preside over the discussion of "Shu".
"If you hold the theory of the Book of Changes..." Fei Qian pondered, feeling a little headache, "What about the Book of Changes? Shiyuan, are you good at the Book of Changes?" Xun was also good at the Book of Changes. During the Sichuan period, Xun held a special public class on the I Ching.
"Yi? Wenyou...uh...this..." Pang Tong said subconsciously, but after he said it, he felt something was wrong, so he stopped and got stuck.
Li Ru is good at Yi, but the problem is that he cannot be allowed to appear in such an occasion.
Li Ru can serve under Fei Qian. Even if others find out, he will turn a blind eye and not say anything. Although it is said that the executor who poisoned the deposed emperor was Li Ru, but Just like many temporary workers in later generations, someone always has to do the dirty work. Can this blame be placed on the temporary workers? Will they seize and stalk the temporary workers, and will they stop only if the temporary workers are ruined and their families are ruined?
However, such a thing cannot be put on the surface, so Pang Tong reacted after subconsciously saying it.
Both Fei Qian and Pang Tong were a little worried. After sifting through the people in their hands, there seemed to be no suitable ones... ?????Speaking of which, Cao Cao is also good at "Yi", and then I heard that Liu Biao was also quite good at "Yi" Research, but unfortunately these two people will definitely not be willing to participate in the so-called Qinglong Sutra here in Fei Qian.
"Let''s put this aside for the time being..." Fei Qian glanced at Pang Yi and said, "Shiyuan, your poems were given to Liang Dao, your books, recommended to friends, and Yi, you don''t understand, why can''t you do it? Want to host the ceremony?”
"This "Li"..." Pang Tong smiled awkwardly, "I actually thought...but, haha...how about this..."Spring and Autumn" I will do it?"
"You''re going to host "Spring and Autumn"?" Fei Qian pondered for a moment and nodded, "...that''s fine..."
Among the Five Classics, the one Fei Qian is most familiar with is the Spring and Autumn Period. After all, this is Fei Qian’s original classic.
The Spring and Autumn Period received great attention during the Western Han Dynasty. "Gongyang Zhuan" and "Gu Liang Zhuan" were both serious doctoral official studies, while "Zuo Zhuan" was an extensive private study. Both of them have been passed down. Through teaching, different schools of teachings were formed.
?However, due to Wang Mang''s turmoil at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the entire Spring and Autumn Period inheritance system was greatly damaged. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, after the restoration of Emperor Ming and Zhang, the "Spring and Autumn" was re-established.
"But you want to say what is important in the Spring and Autumn Period..." Fei Qian examined Pang Tong, "If you say it well, I will let you preside over it. If you say it badly, haha..."
Pang Tong naturally learned from the school of Pang Degong, and Pang Degong was a disciple of Huang Lao, so he was naturally familiar with books such as "Spring and Autumn", and this would not cause any problems.
“The Spring and Autumn Period naturally focuses on history... This is not difficult... but...” Pang Tong said, “What is the basis of the three Chunqiu Biography?”
“What is the basis?” Fei Qian frowned.
In fact, at the beginning, there were also three legends in Spring and Autumn Period. The text of "Spring and Autumn" was too simple and difficult for later generations to understand, so exegesis works appeared one after another to explain and explain the records in the book, which were called "biography". Among them, Zuo Qiuming''s "Chun Qiu Zuo Shi Zhuan", Gong Yanggao''s "Chun Qiu Gong Yang Zhuan", and Gu Liangchi''s "Chun Qiu Gu Liang Zhuan" are collectively called "Three Biography of Spring and Autumn".
When Emperor Guangwu was preparing to reinstate the Ph.D. in Confucian classics, during a discussion in Yuntai, Fan Sheng, a Ph.D. in "Liangqiu Yi", said, "The Zuo family does not originate from Confucius, but from Qiu Ming. It was passed down from master to disciple, and there is no other "It is not a human being, and it is not the existence of the late emperor, so there is no reason why it can be established." He also listed fourteen things that were wrong in "Zuo Zhuan" and thirty-one things that were "unrecordable" to refute Zuo Zhuan.
At that time, Chen Yuan, a great scholar in Zuo''s biography, said in a tit-for-tat Shangshu that Zuo Qiuming "accepted Confucius personally, while Gongyang Guliang heard about it in later generations", which was not unrelated. Secondly, Dr. Fan Sheng said, "Both of them cut off the Xiaowen. , The slight difference in age is used as a big fallacy, and the small details are left out as big errors. In other words, the deviation in year, month and time cannot cover up Zuo Zhuan''s literary excellence.
?This issue sparked controversy, which led to the fact that at the time of Guangwu''s reign, "Zuo Zhuan" did not establish a doctorate.
Later, when Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty held a meeting on the White Tiger Temple, he said that "Zuo Zhuan" "invented and benefited a lot from the Spring and Autumn Annals", but in the end when Ban Gu wrote "White Tiger Tongyi", he still hesitated. Wherever "Spring and Autumn" is involved, most of them adopt the meaning of "Gongyang Zhuan", occasionally adopt the theory of "Gu Liang", and never use the meaning of "Zuo Zhuan", which ultimately leads to the current weak study of "Zuo Zhuan"...
?So what Pang Tong meant by asking was to ask Fei Qian if he wanted to take out "Zuo Zhuan" again...
??And once Fei Qian expresses his intention to support "Zuo Zhuan", it will definitely lead to another **** storm.
“Tuk duk, duk duk…” Fei Qian thought, tapping his fingers lightly on the table like a woodpecker, and finally made up his mind, “Just follow Zuo Zhuan!”
??Anyway, isn’t this Qinglong Temple scripture discussion just to cause trouble?
One sheep is driven like this, but ten sheep should be driven like this?
Completely muddy the water, maybe there will be an unexpected surprise...
"It''s just..." Fei Qian said again, "You can''t come forward in this matter... Just find someone to pick it out, and you will be responsible for presiding over it..."
"So..." Pang Tong raised his head and thought for a moment, then moved closer to Fei Qian and whispered, "I have thought of a... Lord, what do you think..."
"Hmm..." Fei Qian also nodded, "This person is quite good...but he may not be willing..."
Pang Tong chuckled twice and said, "Please don''t worry, my lord... I have my own way..."
Fei Qian glanced at Pang Yi, thought for a while, and finally nodded, "Okay, I''ll leave it to you..."
?Now, among the Five Classics, there are generally only three suitable candidates, and there are still vacancies in "Yi" and "Li"...
Fei Qian was thinking about it, and suddenly thought of a person, and whispered: "Is this "Li"? I also thought of someone..."
Pang Tong''s eyes widened after hearing this. He originally thought that doing Zuo Zhuan was a big enough matter, but he didn''t expect Fei Qian to create a bigger scene. If this person really came forward to preside over the discussion on "Li" , I’m afraid it can’t be described as windy and rainy, at least it’s at the level of stormy seas…
