Chapter 1809 Closing of the essay
Recently, the people in Chang''an have been going crazy with joy. Not only is the Qinglong Temple going to hold a so-called "closing" ceremony, but they also heard that the Hussar General is going to reward his generals based on their merits, and there are even rumors that there are even prisoners. To be sent to the emperor to "offer prisoners", it is simply one wave after another, which makes people unable to stop at all.
The Great Lecture at Qinglong Temple lasted from the end of autumn to the beginning of spring. It was a lively discussion. Many topics were discussed and many scriptures were discussed. The most attractive ones were the three arguments, one was "seeking truth and seeking truth" and the other was "Zhong Zhong". "Nibu Sheng", and the remaining one is "On Sentence Reading" which not many people paid attention to at the beginning, but became more and more enthusiastic later on...
Originally, reading is a process from imagination to words, and then from words to imagination. Therefore, in this process, various cognitive biases will appear, just like someone seeing "Big Qiao Xiao Qiao" These four words, just like the four white thighs of the Japanese style, some people also think of Gone with the Wind, Les Miserables, etc., but they are different. This is normal, after all, individual perceptions are different. However, there is the so-called "nothing comes first" mentality, which makes some people think that what they think is the most correct, and then criticize those who have different ideas, slander and abuse, and do whatever they can to force them to do so. It would be a bit too much to ask others to follow your own train of thought.
Before the Han Dynasty, or before sentence reading became popular in history, the interpretation of scriptures was a very skillful matter. Perhaps the same sentence represented seven, eight, or even a dozen meanings. Wherever it is, it is the individual who has the final say, and different schools often arise due to different sentence readings. At one time, when recruiting scholars in the imperial court, they deliberately bribed the examiner to adopt the sentence reading model of a certain school. To increase the number of your own children who pass the exam.
When Cai Yan''s "On Sentence Reading" was first proposed, it did not receive much attention at first. After all, those who could participate in the Qinglong Temple lecture, whether they were participants in the lecture or just observers, were at least I know some basic methods of sentence reading and know where to break when reading a sentence. Therefore, "Theory of Sentence Reading" is indeed not as shocking as the two arguments of "Seeking truth and seeking truth" and "Zhongni is not a saint" at the beginning.
But as time goes by, sentence reading slowly reveals its importance...
As mentioned before, individuals reading the same scripture may have different interpretations due to different readings of sentences. Then when arguing with each other, they suddenly find that the bull''s head does not fit the horse''s mouth, and then they can''t help but review the original meaning. The problem extends to the question of whose sentence reading method is correct.
As more and more things like this happen, everyone realizes how important it is to have a unified "sentence reading standard" for scriptures. It is even closer to them than "seeking truth and seeking truth" and "Zhongni Busheng". After all, "seeking truth and correctness" is a concept, and "Zhongni is not a saint" is also far away. Only the sentence reading is related to how one will interpret the scriptures correctly. Therefore, in the later period, we often see some people trying to How should a certain verse of scripture be read? The debate turned red-faced.
When everyone holds their own opinions, an arbiter is often needed, and Cai Yan, who was the first to propose sentence reading, has become the best arbiter invisibly. When Cai Yan came to attend the Qinglong Temple lecture, he did not have many personal contacts with the disciples from Heluo, Hedong, Taiyuan, Guanzhong, Hanzhong, and a small number of Jingzhou gentry, so they all used It is a more fair attitude and more convincing. The second aspect is that Cai Yan has the "Library" skill that he carries. It is not too easy to quote scriptures. Often, even if there are some signs of dissatisfaction, he will be rejected like a mountain. The various scripture examples are drowned. Under the erosion of huge data, any resistance is in vain...
And some of the people who were first washed away by Cai Yan''s data flow, under the thought of "How can I be the only one who suffers, why do I have to drag one or two back", dragged in more people? People should undergo the baptism of "Cai Yan-style" illustrations...
Slowly, Cai Yan''s reputation as "the master of sentence reading" was accepted by default. Many people simply came to the back and even asked Cai Yan about some of their doubts about the scriptures, asking Cai Yan for correction. Those who originally criticized Cai Yan gradually stopped talking, and then praised Cai Yan for being worthy of being the successor of Cai Yong, for his demeanor and for being the inheritor of Confucian classics.
? Many things are like this. They are not favored by others at first, but they inadvertently stir up the situation.
It is like the Qinglong Temple Great Treatise itself.
When Fei Qian said he wanted to hold such a party, not many people took it seriously, and some even thought it was unnecessary. After all, a hussar general could just focus on military warfare. Shenhe Sutra Isn''t it just like a singer holding an art exhibition or a comic reader going to a calligraphy award?
They didn''t really get along at all, but Fei Qian, who felt that he was not a good general if he didn''t want to be a cook, really managed the Qinglong Temple lecture in a decent way. Even at the end, some people thought The meaning is still not finished.
?But, I heard that the Hussars General said that he would prepare to hold a meeting every four years, which is fine, and there is some hope.
Why four years?
Even before Fei Qian could think of an explanation, many people had already said that four years was just right, neither too long nor too short. More importantly, four years coincided with the Four Symbols. As the saying goes, "Four Symbols give rise to all things." The annual period coincides with the meaning of "the scriptures educate all peoples". Some people say that the four-year period actually represents the four directions, taking the theory of "the four directions unite"...
??What else can Fei Qian say?
I had to laugh about it and show that what you said was right.
?Fei Qian stood on the high platform of the Qinglong Temple main hall, nodded slightly, and looked around.
Colorful flags were waving all around and the sky was blue.
The gentle spring breeze was blowing, and it seemed to bring a little earthy smell.
This is an age full of hope, and this is also an age full of ignorance...
『The state-owned Han Dynasty is located in Zhongzhou! 』
『The territory is thousands of miles long, the sun and the moon are here to stay! 』
Fei Qian recited it loudly, and his voice echoed in all directions from the high platform.
The sound passed through the main hall, passed through the corridor, vibrated in the sky above Longshouyuan, and seemed to vibrate in everyone''s heart, making all the fine hairs stand on end!
『The gods came to Yaoguang, and the five emperors responded to their requests. Taiyi is bright in the north and south, and the golden crow travels in the east and west. Yao of the Tang Dynasty was in the mountains, and Shun was lying on Yijiu. In ancient times, kindness was passed down, but now it has become an enemy. The river is full of chaos, and when will it stop? They harassed each other and broke the axle! It hurts! 』
Looking at the eight deserts and the four seas, fighting against the five states of Jiujiang and Dingjing. Enter the desert and cross the weak water. When you leave the ghost valley, you will definitely drive away the bandits. At that time, the world was in chaos, with ragged flesh and bones and coffins. Looking west at Kunlun, I feel in a trance, and in the east, I look up at the Dan steps and feel worried. The mountains in the south are wild and straight, but those who return from the north wind and frost are not taught! How sad! 』
lves in you , gather all the wise men together, be knowledgeable and endure the rudeness. Hearing the sound of Lun, the beautiful voice comes together, and he is knowledgeable and like being taught by grace. Eat the morning glow and enjoy the neon lights, and enjoy the beautiful flowers and silk. With the grand gathering, you can find the right way, which can help all generations and relieve thousands of sorrows. After returning to the carriage, I turned around and headed back. The transmission was long and unclear. Go out of the narrow confines of the mist, relax your mind and go on a long boat! What a success! 』
『The four rounds of Spring and Autumn are approaching, and I sing to thank you! 』
『Eight years of desolation are the proof, waiting for an encounter! 』
"Somehow, Dahan rides, you have to work with you, but fortunately! 』
Four years later, I will be here again to hear your sonorous voices and listen to your economic principles! 』
Fei Qian cupped his hands and bowed to everyone in the audience. A group of people in the audience, led by Sima Hui and Zheng Xuan, also bowed down and bowed in return...
…(︶`)(︶`)…
??If according to Pang Tong''s theory, if people are happy, what should they do?
Have a good meal!
?However, the converse is also true, what should you do if you are unhappy?
It’s also a good meal!
The Qinglong Temple lecture came to an end, and it also announced that Pang Tong’s errands had come to a successful conclusion. Pang Tong immediately felt that the burden on his body was much lighter, and he could feel like he was floating when he walked...
In order to stay stable, Pang Tong felt that the most important thing was to eat more meat!
?Well, regardless of whether the reason was appropriate or not, after Pang Tong followed Fei Qian back to the General''s Mansion, he loudly clamored for barbecue, and Duang Duang had to knock on the table.
Fei Qian smiled and asked his attendants to prepare the barbecue in the yard. He first took Pang Tong, Xun You, Zaozhi and others to sit in a pavilion nearby.
Sima Hui and Zheng Xuan seemed to have booked the Ping Jue Tower in Chang''an City and were preparing to have a lively event. Fei Qian could just show up at the official ceremony, so there was no need to go there to join in the fun.
"I am ashamed. I thought at first that the great treatise of Qinglong Temple was nothing more than this..." Xun You said from the side, "Now that I heard the Lord''s words, I can understand its true meaning... The great treatise of Qinglong Temple is not a theory, but a conclusion!" 』
At first, when Xun You stayed in Chang''an, he felt a little bit like he was being tortured by Fei Qian. But as he stayed for a long time, he got used to it... Well, I understand that Fei Qian''s ideas here are obviously better than those in Shandong. The gang members want to be broader and deeper!
In this world, only those who set standards have the right to speak. The Great Treatise of Qinglong Temple is undoubtedly a standard-setting conference on Chinese scriptures. And such standards will have far-reaching impacts.
"Seeking truth and seeking truth", "Zhongni is not a saint", and "On Sentence Reading" seem to be like three monuments in the palace of literature. They will stand there forever and no one can get around it unless the next major When discussing, some people will refute this concept and succeed...
?However, will anyone refute the three important arguments this time?
Leaving aside the question of whether to dare or not, these three arguments are tenable even in purely academic terms. Who would say that he studies the scriptures not to seek truth and correctness, but to see if there are any little yellow people or white people? Who would stand up and say that the emperor is a **** and not a saint at all? Who would deny the importance of sentence reading and think that learning the scriptures does not require proficiency in sentence reading?
Regardless of what will happen in the future, whether the literature of the entire Han Dynasty will undergo major changes as a result, Xun You is already very sure of one thing, that is, after this Qinglong Temple lecture, the power of the entire Shanxi gentry academic world, although it is still possible Some cannot keep up with those in Shandong, but the date for reestablishing Chang''an as the cultural center of the Han Dynasty is no longer far away.
?Perhaps the next Qinglong Temple lecture will do this.
As Western learning rises, Eastern learning will inevitably decline.
Just like when Eastern learning was prosperous and Western learning was decadent.
The key problem is that even if people in Shandong want to be like Fei Qian, they can''t do a so-called "big talk" because there are still constant disputes in Shandong...
?This difference is like eating meat or drinking soup.
If it continues to expand, there may not even be soup. After all, this time, there are not only Pingyang Shoushan Academy in Bingbei, but also Sima Hui, Jingzhou Academicians represented by Pang Tong, and even Zheng Xuan. This is almost the "unification of the world" in literature!
??This is something that those old guys in Yingchuan have been pursuing all their lives. They never thought that it would be accomplished here in Chang''an under General Hussar...
Xun You was filled with emotion, but Pang Tong either took it for granted, or perhaps felt that there was no unachievable goal for Fei Qian here, so he didn''t seem to have that much emotion, or maybe his body and mind were all looking forward to what would happen after the barbecue. The smell of oil was very fragrant, so I just looked outside the pavilion and didn''t have much thought to participate in the discussion.
Zao Zhi smiled and said, "I wonder how many of these people will stay?" 』
"I''m afraid there are quite a few..." Xun You nodded and said, "In this case, the housing prices in Chang''an City will probably remain high..." It was a sigh of relief. Xun You was quite sensitive to his job, so he immediately began to make estimates, wondering if it was right. You can take advantage of the aftermath of this Qinglong Temple discussion to make some money.
"In the past, when I read "Ode to Two Capitals", I often thought, which one is more beautiful, Xijing or Tokyo..." Zao Zhi said with a smile, "Today, it seems that Xijing is even better..." What Zao Zhi meant was not simply talking about the scenery. .
…On the left side there is the fortress of the dangerous and peach forest of Xiaohan, which is decorated with two flowers. The giant spirit is squatting, with its palms high and its soles far away. The river is meandering, and the traces of its retreat are still there. On the right is the Longdi Pass, which separates Huarong, Qiliang, Qianyong, and Chen Bao''s crowing chicken..." Xun You also nodded and said, "That''s true... It''s much better than Shandong..."
Fei Qian laughed twice and said: "Everyone, let''s put aside your external affairs for the time being... A batch of spices were sent from Sichuan some time ago, just in time for today''s banquet..." These days, pepper and other things are really worth their weight in gold. .
Fei Qian''s words hit Pang Tong''s heart exactly, and he immediately clapped his hands in agreement.
Also, after being tired for so long, I just want to take some time off. If Fei Qian keeps talking about a lot of business, I really won’t be able to take it anymore.
?Two sheep were placed on top of the bonfire. Under the burning flames, the fat was mixed with spices, creating an indescribable smell that was lingering and mouth-watering.
Fei Qian picked up the wine cup and said, "I am very lucky to have received your help!" Come, drink this wine, may you have less worries today, and may you have more joy tomorrow! Drink to win! 』
『Drink to win! ” Everyone raised their glasses in response.
As the sun sets in the west, the soft and warm sunlight slants into the walls of the courtyard, dyeing everything around it with a slightly warm color...
