The little official nodded and said, "Lord Jia commanded, how dare the lower officials disobey." ”

Jia Hu smiled and shook his head, the little official caught a glimpse of that smile, and couldn't help but think that when Lord Jia didn't laugh, it was scary, but when he laughed, it was like a spring breeze.

Jia Hu didn't know what he was thinking, but he knew that these old fritters would not do anything that was not beneficial. He has a shallow foundation in the Hanlin Academy, so it's better not to offend these local snakes.

Then he smiled and said, "Lord Yuan is too modest. After the matter was completed, the adults went to the champion building to find his shopkeeper. He made a well-known gesture, and quietly stuffed a silver ticket to the little official.

was called an adult, and the little official said with sincere fear: "We can trust Lord Jia's character." Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced quietly, and the number on the silver ticket made his heart pound. That's only half the pay!

"Don't dare to delay Lord Jia's affairs. The lower official retired. ”

Bidding farewell to the official, Jia Hu felt very calm. He's not a guy who can't fight back, since those two people dare to disgust him, don't blame him for being disgusted.

The wine table culture in the Central Plains has a long history, and even people like Han Wenxuan inevitably think that it is natural for students to invite a teacher to dinner. Jahu was not reluctant, on the contrary, he was very willing. Han Wenxuan, as a bachelor in charge of the academy, does not shy away from suspicion at all, and also has a little bit of support for him.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere between the two became more and more intimate, Jia Hu raised the celadon cup and said sincerely: "Thank you Lord Han for your protection." One cup to Lord Hujing. He threw up his head and drank a glass of wine.

Han Wenxuan clapped his hands with a smile and said, "I didn't expect Jia Hu that your alcohol consumption should not be underestimated!" ”

Jia Hu smiled reservedly. This teacher is a strict person, and he has no other hobbies on weekdays, only loves those two sips of wine, which Jia Hu has long inquired about.

"What do you think of this wine?"

"It's crisp in the mouth and has an endless aftertaste." Han Wenxuan took a few drinks and nodded and smiled.

Although it is not a kind of elixir and jade dew, this is already the best wine in the cellar of the Champion Building. Jia Hu smiled, "It's not a wine worth a thousand dollars, it's just a wine made up by my own family to entertain themselves." If you like it, you might as well take two altars home. ”

Han Wenxuan pondered for a moment and joked: "This is an apprenticeship?" If so, then I can have a few more drinks. ”

The relationship between teachers and students in the officialdom is closer than that of the teacher, Han Wenxuan intends to get close, and Jia Hu naturally can't ask for it. However, Han Wenxuan was just joking, and Jia Hu didn't dare to take himself too seriously, so he smiled and said, "How can the apprenticeship be so perfunctory? The student should come to the door with a bundle and kowtow to the teacher! ”

Both knew it was just a joke. The matter of apprenticeship is only suitable before Jia Hu enters the office. Now find a teacher, and everyone in the officialdom will only say that Jia Hu will be looked down upon by everyone if he ties up with his boss.

Han Wenxuan only regretted that he didn't know this good seedling at the beginning, and he was very willing to accept Jia Hu as a closed disciple, so he said: "You're late!" I took in the closed disciples a few years ago. But if you want, we can be teachers and students in private, and that's it! ”

Hearing this, Jia Hu was about to bow down, "If you can get the teacher's guidance, the students can't ask for it!" He changed his words and called him "teacher".

Han Wenxuan was moved to support him and said, "Just call me teacher in private." If you have any problems in your studies, just come to me. Even if you have any confusion in being an official, you might as well come and ask me. I have lived a few more thoughts than you, and I think I am more transparent than you, and it is not difficult to give advice. ”

Jia Hu only smiled, gave the teacher a glass, and asked, "Teacher, the student's question last time, I don't know if the teacher has a clue?" ”

The Analects? There is a sentence in Taber VIII: "The Son of the People can make it impossible to know it." This sentence can be understood in two ways, one is "Zi said: The people can make it, but they can't make it known." The other is "Zi said: The people can, make it; No, let it be known. "The sentence reading that Da Zhou now uses is the first type.

At first, Han Wenxuan didn't take it seriously, but after he went back, he pondered it repeatedly, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. This is not just a matter of reading sentences, it embodies the thinking of two people in power.

Jia Hu: "The sage said, 'there is no class in teaching', so the students have great doubts, and there is no doubt that the second explanation is more in line with the sage's thinking, why do everyone only read the first sentence? ”

Han Wenxuan said with a smile: "Naturally, it's because the teacher teaches it like this." “

Jia Hu shook his head, "For hundreds of years, hasn't anyone had any doubts about this?" “

Han Wenxuan Zhengse said: "Naturally, there are, but everyone reads it like this, and no one is willing to make great efforts to change it." ”

"Others don't want to, but the Hanlin Academy is the forest of Wenhan, don't they care?" Jia Hu got to the point. The responsibilities of the Hanlin Academy are diverse, not only for the Son of Heaven to be a close minister, for the Son of Heaven to ask for advice, but also to compile and repair books. The words and phrases of the Analects are controversial, so they are naturally under the control of the Hanlin Academy.

Han Wenxuan couldn't guess what Jia Hu meant for a while, and asked tentatively: "But there are thousands of fallacies in the book, do the people of the Hanlin Academy do nothing but repair the book?" What's more, the reading of sentences is passed on by word of mouth, even if the Hanlin Academy corrects the fallacy, how big the world is, and there are countless country gentlemen, how can they know it? ”

Jia Hu smiled, "Students have had this question since they were young, and my grandfather asked students to figure out their own methods, and over the decades, students have figured out a system of punctuation. ”

Punctuation mark? Han Wenxuan pondered for a moment, "But the mark you marked in the book?" ”

When Jia Hu asked questions, he only took a piece of rice paper and wrote the sentence twice, marked with black dots at the pause. Han Wenxuan only thought that the black dot was a mark of annotation, but did not pay attention to its special features.

"What's the use of that mark?"

"Mark the sentence and read it."

"Sentence reading? What does this need to be marked for? Suddenly, thinking of that sentence reading, Han Wenxuan was silent, making a deaf look.

Jia Hu said: "Whenever you speak and write, there are pauses, there are temporary, there are ends, there are exclamations, and there are questions. Punctuation has two functions, one is to indicate the tone, such as doubt, such as exclamation, and use different symbols to express different emotions; The second is to indicate the sentence reading to prevent ambiguity. ”

Hearing this, Han Wenxuan nodded.

Jia Hu continued: "As the teacher said, there are tens of millions of books in the world, and manpower can't reach them, how can they be corrected one by one? But if there is punctuation, we only need to tell the people in the world what the punctuation means and they will use it. Besides, for all the books used in the imperial examination, such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, wouldn't it be convenient for us at the Hanlin Academy to make efforts to mark this set of books with symbols and let the Internal Affairs Office pay for it? ”

Han Wenxuan thought for a long time before saying, "This is feasible." - Still, you might be able to guarantee that your punctuation is error-free? ”

"Naturally, there is no guarantee," Jia Hu smiled, "It's just me, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions, but there are many colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, all of whom are talented and talented, and if we discuss it together, can't we improve it?" It's not hard to overturn my system and build it again! ”

Han Wenxuan smiled and nodded: "It's good if you have this mentality." You're not qualified, and most people may not be convinced. He added, "The stakes are so high that I have to report to the Holy One." ”

Jia Hu hurriedly called Hegui, and in Han Wenxuan's puzzled eyes, Jia Hu said: "I dare to put forward my own set, naturally I am confident." This is a set of scriptures that I once memorized, and the teacher may wish to point out when he is free. "A confident face.

This self-confidence is just right, not the arrogance of everyone's children, but the vigor of the young man. Han Wenxuan couldn't help but cheer secretly, and his face also showed a little love.

Jia Hu personally selected two jars of good wine, put them into the carriage of the Han family together with the scriptures brought by Hegui, stood respectfully in place, and waited for the carriage of the Han family to leave the sight, and then went home.

Back in the house, before Jia Hu could breathe a sigh of relief, he was summoned by his mother again.

As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw Jia Ying sitting beside Liu and crying silently. Her eyes were red and swollen, her eyes were foggy, and she had obviously been crying for more than a moment. But Jia Hu was distressed, and hurriedly asked, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

While stroking the little girl's hair, Liu said with an ugly face: "What happened in the other courtyard has been exposed. ”

When Jia Ying heard her brother's voice, she couldn't help but raise her head, sobbing and saying, "My brother is back, I, I ......"

Jia Hu strode over, wiped her little face with a handkerchief, and said softly: "Ying'er don't worry, there is a brother and father here." Then he asked, "What about my father?" What the hell is going on? ”

Liu sighed deeply, "You are in the Yamen, maybe you haven't heard of it yet." The rumors in Beijing are boiling, and the wives I have dated know about it! Hearing this, Jia Ying cried even more sadly, her reputation was ruined, how could she get married? Liu put his arms around Jia Ying, comforted her, and gritted his teeth and said, "Your father is still outside." - Who the hell did this?! If I can't find out, I won't spare it! ”

Today, Liu's sister-in-law, Gu, posted a post and invited someone to the waterside to enjoy the lotus. Liu thought that his daughter was bored at home, and the more he thought about it, the more he was in a bad mood, so it was better to talk to the handkerchiefs and relax.

Who knew that when the ladies were laughing, a lady laughed and talked about the recent rumors in the capital, saying that Jia Ying was looked at by a ruffian, and the lady asked maliciously: "Mrs. Jia, I heard that person was taken back by your son-in-law, but I don't know if you want to recruit a son-in-law?" ”

Liu Shi's face fell immediately.

The banquet of her mother's sister-in-law naturally does not match the nobles, and it is full of noble ladies in the court, and some of them do not buy the accounts of the Guogong Mansion. The one who spoke was Mrs. Hanlin, Mrs. Zhao.

It's just a mere lady-in-waiting, and she dares to make fun of the concubine of the Guogong Mansion like this! Liu was angry, and what made her even more angry was that Gu, as her sister-in-law and the initiator of the banquet, could have stopped Mrs. Zhao as soon as she spoke, but she just listened with a smile. After Mrs. Zhao finished saying this, Gu Shi smiled and played a round: "Mrs. Zhao said that she was joking, most of the rumors in Beijing are groundless, who here doesn't know?" He added: "It's about the reputation of the daughter of the boudoir, ladies are still cautious!" ”

As early as when Mrs. Zhao said those words, the scene was already quiet. Although Rong Guogong has no real power, it is not a scholar who can challenge it, you know, it is the son of Rong Guogong, and now it is a repair, and the future is promising.

This Mrs. Zhao is talking like this, isn't there any backstage? 166 Reading Network
