"I'll tell you the truth! This is the first time I've worn a white coat. Yang Meng walked around in Pan Anguo's office wearing a doctor's white coat: "Do you have a mirror here?" ”

Pan Anguo said: "There is it in the bathroom!"

Yang Meng ran to the bathroom, and it took him a long time before he came out: "Tsk, handsome!

Pan Anguo said speechlessly: "Is it really good for you to say that you are handsome like this?"

Yang Meng said: "Some things are obviously the truth but can't be said, and if you say it, you will be thick-skinned." I never cared about that, to tell you the truth, handsome is handsome!"

Pan Anguo no longer wants to entangle this topic with Yang Meng: "You can do whatever you say." I said Xiao Yang, I heard Pei Yu say, you have been doing nothing at home every day lately?"

After hearing this, Yang Meng sat down on the sofa: "Who said it wasn't! There are only game consoles left, and by the way, I broke the speedrunning records of a bunch of games." Now 'speedrun' has my name on it. ”

Nowadays, some game console players pursue the record of game speed clearance, and some games are still very competitive, such as the original version of "Super Mario", which everyone knows, and now the time competition has reached the millisecond level, and the current world record for customs clearance is 4 minutes 56 seconds and 245 milliseconds.

Yang Meng didn't play any "Super Mario", but he broke all the speedrunning records he had played in games such as "Bloodline", "Nioh", "Salt and Shelter", "Cuphead" and "Resident Evil".

Pan Anguo said: "Isn't your life too boring? It's not me who brags about my son, but look at Peiyu, now he has become the golden sign of the orthopedic department of the municipal hospital, you are his master, you must be more powerful than him!"

Yang Meng lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "I'm planning to be Confucius! ”

"You kid, are you saying you're a saint?" said Pan Anguo said with a smile.

As a result, Yang Meng spread out his hands: "Now people know Confucius, but who knows his old man's deeds?

Pan Anguo said: "He wrote the Analects!"

Yang Meng smiled and shook his head: "Confucius's works are 'six arts', that is, "poems", "books", "rites", "Yi", "music", and "Spring and Autumn", and they are all 'compilation', which is just to sort out and correct what others say. The Analects, which has made Confucius's name known to this day, is actually a book written by Confucius's disciples and his followers. So the apprentice received it well, and the master mixed it with incense. I just take some apprentices and teach them how to respect the master. Hahahaha. Old man Pan, let me ask you a question, what is Confucius's surname?"

Pan Anguo was stunned after hearing this, in fact, as Yang Meng said, many people's cognition of Confucius only stays at 'three thousand students' and 'traveling around the world', and he really doesn't know what his old man has done.

"His surname is Kong, isn't it? Aren't all his descendants surnamed Kong?" replied Pan Anguo.

Yang Meng shook his head: "No, 'Kong' is his 'clan' and not his 'surname'." ”

In ancient times, there was a strict distinction between 'surname' and 'clan'. 'Surname' is a sign of a person's lineage, which generally does not change with the inheritance of ancestors, and people will know their lineage as soon as they see the person's 'surname', while 'clan' represents the family, and the reaction is one

The characteristics of the family, such as where you live and what your occupation is, so the 'clan' often changes, for example, if several children in a family have their own families, then their 'clan' will be different.

Let's take a simple example: Jiang Ziya, who said that 'the wisher takes the bait', knows that his surname is Jiang Mingshang, and 'Ziya' is his 'character', but he is called Lu Shang in the history books. This is because his 'clan' is 'Lü', and he is a descendant of the surname Jiang who was sealed in Lüdi, including Lü Buwei, a great merchant of the Qin State.

At that time, people were addressed by 'clan' rather than surname. The poet Qu Yuan's 'Qu' is also his name rather than his surname, and his surname is Mi. (By the way, 'Hara' isn't his name either.) Qu Yuan's name is plain Qu Yuan. ）

Pan Anguo was puzzled and asked: "What is his surname not Kong? Kongqiu, Kongqiu, is his surname Qiu?"

"That's his name, Kongqiu's name is Qiu Zi Zhongni. At that time, people called 'Zi', so it should be called Kong Zhongni. Yang Meng shook his head and denied Pan Anguo's statement.

"Then what is his surname? Confucius。。。。。。 You can't have the surname 'Zi', right?" Pan Anguo was confused.

Yang Meng snapped his fingers: "You're right." ”

"What's that?" Pan Anguo pointed at Yang Meng and said, "Don't fool me! Even if I don't know the history of that time, I know that 'Zi' was the honorific title for people at that time, what 'Laozi', 'Mencius', 'Xunzi' and the like, just like calling those highly respected people Li Lao and Zhang Lao now!"

"Look, look, let's see? The Analects is good: Zigong asked: Why does Confucius Wenzi mean the text? Zi said: Sensitive and studious, not ashamed, ask the next question is to say the text. Don't say you don't know this!" Yang Meng pouted and said: "Before I finished speaking, you refuted, how can you make progress? You still can't catch up with your son! Why are you so not modest?"

Pan Anguo's face was black: "Okay, then you say!"

Yang Meng explained: "Confucius had a good father, who was a descendant of the Shang Dynasty's royal family, and his ancestor was Wei Ziqi, the brother of the Shang Dynasty. At that time, when the Zhou Dynasty was established, Wei Ziqi was enshrined in Shangqiu to establish the Song State, which was the ancestor of Confucius. What was the surname of the royal family of the Shang Dynasty? What was the surname of the king of Shang? The surname of the family was 'Zi'! Therefore, Confucius was the surname of the son, the surname of Kong, the name of Qiu, the character Zhongni! In the era in which he lived, this was necessary to distinguish in detail, and later in the Qin and Han dynasties, the number of people became more and more numerous, and there was not much cohesion between the same surnames, so the surnames were gradually assimilated, and it was okay to call a person with a 'surname' and a 'surname'. For example, Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, some history books call him Zhao Zheng, this is because his surname is 'Win' and 'Zhao'. ”

Pan Anguo was indeed speechless after hearing this: "I said Yang Meng, what are you doing studying these messy things all day long? Isn't it good to do something serious?"

"I don't want to listen to what you say!" Yang Meng said: "Why is it not the right thing to educate apprentices? I am now learning from Sage Kong how to educate apprentices, including your son, okay?"

The story of the Confucian saint is actually very legendary, the legend is that the Confucian saint is the 'divine son' sent by the unicorn to find his mother, of course, the legends are not very reliable, in fact, his old saint is 'wild X', that is, 'illegitimate child'.

His father's uncle Liang Su was also a cattle man back then, with an aristocratic status and a literary and martial arts, and he was a doctor in Lu State. At that time, he was known as one of the 'Three Tiger Generals of the Lu Kingdom'. (This is also the reason for Confucius's tall stature.) ）

This Uncle Liang

Although Su is enough to be a cow, there is a problem, that is, nine daughters and one son, and his son is not good at legs and feet, so Shu Liang Su wanted to have a son, so he married Confucius's mother Yan Zhengzai gave birth to Confucius.

Of course, this is a statement in the history books, and there is a great beautification component.

Why do you say that? Shu Liang Su is a real nobleman, while Yan Zhengzai is an ordinary peasant woman. And at that time, Shu Liang Su was at least sixty-six years old, and Yan Zhengzai was only a teenager. So it's hard to say what the hell is going on.

And after Yan Zheng gave birth to Kong Lao Sage, Shu Liang Su didn't care about him at all, and even people didn't know that they had this son. From the birth of Sage Kong to the death of his uncle Liang Su three years later, the two may not have met.

The turn of events was when Sage Kong was fifteen years old, and Yan Zheng passed away that year. I don't know if there is a high-ranking person to guide or if Sage Kong is young and intelligent, he directly moved Yan Zhengzai's coffin to a busy street, saying that he would let his parents be buried together. Nominally, he didn't know about his father's burial place and asked the people about it, but he was really creating public opinion pressure.

At that time, the Han State ruled the country with loyalty and filial piety, and his old man's behavior caused a social impact, and the Confucian family noticed the existence of Confucius, and the result was that Confucius not only let his parents be buried together, but also regained his aristocratic status. Of course, it is also a big noble, that is, an ordinary 'scholar', who began to devote himself to the official career, and he is not a big official, but also looks at the warehouse and manages animal husbandry.

However, Confucius loved to read, and in those years, if the nobles wanted to marry and funeral, there was a set of complicated etiquette, and Confucius cooked this set of rolling melons, so at that time, if the nobles wanted to handle red and white ceremonies, they invited him to be the master of ceremonies, and he had a certain reputation in the aristocratic circle.

It was at that time that he began to open schools to teach people to read, and whoever could become his student with just a bunch of bacon, and that's how Confucius had 3,000 disciples, 'Seventy-two Sages'. And he also managed to enter the upper aristocratic circle.

But you say that if you are engaged in learning, you will engage in learning, so why do you have to get involved in political circles? In the various infighting in Lu State, he tossed and turned for about 20 years, and even became the chief secretary for a time, and even served as the acting minister of state. But in the end, he failed and was kicked out of the circle of power, which is why he traveled around the world with a large number of disciples.

Moreover, when he traveled around the world, he was not welcomed by people everywhere he went, as people imagined, and there were many hardships along the way, and he was not welcomed by others.

The word 'mourning dog' is used to describe Confucius: when he ran to Zheng Guo and was separated from his disciples, the disciples inquired everywhere about the whereabouts of the master, and finally Zheng Guoren said: Someone stood at the east gate of the outer city like a 'mourning dog', but his apprentice went to take a look, good guy, it was really Confucius.

He wandered outside with his apprentice for fourteen years, no matter where he went, and finally returned to pass by. At that time, he was almost seventy years old, and he completely broke off his mind of becoming an official, so he began the compilation of the 'Six Arts'.

But he can't stand his many apprentices! Zigong is super rich in business; Zilu became a big nobleman in Weiguo; Ran You led the Lu ** team to defeat Qi State。。。。。。

It was the strength of these apprentices that gave rise to the later "Analects" and today's Confucian saints.

Speaking of this, Yang Meng stretched out his thumb: "So, it is definitely more important to accept some good apprentices than to mix well yourself!"
