Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 726 The opening day of the school

  Outside Pingyang City, the early spring wind has not yet given much warmth, but there are more pedestrians on the road. Among these passers-by, most of them were students wearing silk and wearing square scarves on their heads.

  Although they are walking in the same direction, some people take a car and some walk.

The car is decorated with fine silk, thick-walled interlayer, and carpeted with felt to keep out the cold. There are even copper pipes hidden in it, and then charcoal is burned with a brazier under the car to keep out the cold. Compared with those who are shivering by the cold wind on the road, they are more personable and extraordinary.

  The weather is cold and freezing, that is the job of the poor. As for the rich and well-off, the cold is no longer a threat, but an environment to show their strength.

The trend of studying in the Han Dynasty was at its peak. Among the people who went to Taoshan Academy in Pingyang, they were all students who were given high hopes by a family, or even a family. Ways to change your life...

Different people, although the goal of walking is the same, but the roads of life are different. Therefore, although they are on the same road, some are inviting friends, drinking and laughing while sitting in the car; Even if you walk two steps, you have to take a look at the polished scroll.

Going back and forth, the road ahead suddenly became congested. There is only one road up the mountain. Naturally, there is no way to accommodate so many carriages and horses at the same time. Therefore, under Qumen, we can only abandon the car and climb the mountain. .

  Xun Zhi looked up and saw a stone path winding up. The peach trees on both sides had slightly green buds. The students in green shirts walked slowly, adding a lot of vigor and vitality to the whole peach mountain.

   "Ah cut..."

Just as Xun Zhi's heart was surging, a person next to him suddenly sneezed hugely, saliva flew everywhere, and then his servant yelled, "... quickly bring some **** soup and hot wine, Xiaolang Junmo It caused the wind and cold...you, that idiot, hurry up and go to the leather robe to put on Xiao Langjun..."

  Xun Zhi turned his head and saw that a boy from a wealthy family had just come out of the warm car, and was blown by the cold wind, and suddenly sneezed a few times.

  Xun Zhi lowered his head, concealing his uncontrollable smile, and followed the flow of people through Qumen.

   "Qumen..." Xun Zhi murmured for a while, and then couldn't help but look up again, "...Qumen, Qumen...hehe, it's quite a bit different..."

  Xun Zhi is a descendant of the Xun family, but it is already in decline. Except for a surname of Xun, he is only hanged under the clan uncle, and he can receive a scholarship from the clan once a year.

  However, even the meager scholarship has been cut off since last year.

Xun Shuang followed Liu Xie to Chang'an, and Xun Yu took his family away to Jizhou. The Xun clan that remained in Yuzhou was chaotic and leaderless, and the declining offshoots like Xun Zhi, no matter how they were counted, were not in the first order of care. on the list, so their livelihood was cut off.

As a last resort, he packed up the few things in the family, and prepared to go to Xunchen, who was relatively close to Jizhou. But I ran into Xun Chen who had resigned...

Xun Chen took Xun Zhi with him, and did not return to Yuzhou, but stayed in Hanoi near Wen County. Hearing that Pingyang had newly opened a school palace, Xun Zhi took the attitude of giving it a try, and told Xun Chen that he had also obtained it. support, came here.

   "Qumen...well, there is a way..." Xun Zhi looked at the word Youdao flying on the stone wall halfway up the mountain path, "...the one who walks through the road doesn't come? Or there are other meanings..."

  ********************

  At this time, on Taoshan Mountain, inside the Shoushan Academy, Fei Qian was sitting with Cai Yong, looking at the students who came to the Academy one after another.

   Today is just the start of school, and many students have already come.

Of course, the number of students that can be accommodated on the academy is limited, so if you come later, you may not be able to live on Taoshan, and if you can’t live on the mountain, even if you say you are a student of the academy It also lowered its head, so many students came to Pingyang early, in order to be able to enroll smoothly at the beginning of the school...

   "Ziyuan, why don't you honor Duke Zhou?" Cai Yong stroked his beard, then looked at Fei Qian and asked with a frown.

  Cai Yong himself was more in favor of ancient Chinese classics, so he asked to erect a statue of Zhou Gong instead of Confucius, which happened to be a fundamental point of difference between Jinwen classics and ancient Chinese classics.

  Jinwen Confucianism respects Confucius, and believes that all Confucianism comes from Confucius, so Confucius is sanctified as the embodiment of knowledge, so there are many portraits or statues of Confucius in the school palace.

However, ancient Chinese classics believes that not all the so-called Four Books and Five Classics are from Confucius, but only record the history books from ancient times to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, which are not sacred things. It is the beginning of all Chinese rituals, so there are many portraits of Duke Zhou.

   Cai Yong’s question about Fei Qian’s words was not just about a portrait, but about Fei Qian’s attitude and stand towards the entire school’s Confucian classics system.

  In fact, Cai Yong is not completely opposed to Jinwen Confucianism, but as one of the main authors of Kexiping Stone Classics, he really does not agree with the so-called Weishu and subtle words in Jinwen Confucianism.

Everyone has their own understanding of the scriptures, and there may be some deviations between them. This Cai Yong has no objection, but Cai Yong dislikes someone who imposes his own understanding on everyone, and requires other people to Arbitrarily interpret the scriptures according to my own assumptions, and if there is any difference, I will put on a hat of opposing Confucius...

  So when Cai Yong found out that Fei Qian had removed the statue of Zhou Gong from the main hall of the Academy, he immediately became a little uneasy, and came to ask Fei Qian for clarification.

   Feiqian smiled and said: "Dare to ask the master, is Confucius a man? Or is he a saint?"

  Cai Yong frowned even more, and said: "Since Zhong Ni said, 'You don't know life, but how do you know death', you can know that he is also an ordinary person."

   Fei Qian continued: "Duke Zhou is also a man? Is he also a saint?"

  Cai Yong was taken aback for a moment, then paused for a moment, and said: "Duke Zhou... can't live forever, he should be a mortal..."

   Fei Qian said: "The master is right. A sage should live forever, so only heaven and earth can be called holy... But dare to ask the master, if Zhongni and Zhou Gong are all mortals, if there is no Zhongni, why bother to carve Zhou Gong?"

  Cai Yong thought for a while, then looked at Fei Qian and said, "Ziyuan's intention... is to disregard the past and the present?"

   Comments on Guanggu Zongju:

   Journey to the West: (a traitorous book that promotes the superiority of Western civilization)

   Red Chamber: (a vulgar book that promotes a dirty way of life)

   Water Margin: (A dangerous book that incites people who don’t know the truth)

   Three Kingdoms: (a book with ulterior motives to promote the separatist forces)
