When Gao Gong pushed the door in, Gao Pragmatic had already gotten up and saluted in a proper manner: "Third uncle." ”

"Well, what are you reading?" Gao Gong said, sat down on the main seat, and waved his hand again: "Sit down and talk." ”

Gao pragmatic then sat down and replied: "I am reading Qiu Wenzhuang Gong's "University Yanyi Supplement". ”

Gao Gong frowned slightly, and said: "I know that you can already recite the "University", but for now, you should still focus on the "Chapters and Sentences" (note: referring to Zhu Xi's "University Chapters and Sentences"), and the rest of the "Yanyi" or "Yanyi Supplement", it is not too late to read it again in the future." ”

Gao pragmatically nodded respectfully, his tone was very honest, but his words were quite conceited: "Today I was originally scheduled to recite the sixth and seventy-second chapters of the right biography of the "Chapters and Sentences", but these two chapters are quite short, so even the eighth chapter is memorized. After that, my nephew saw that he still had some leisure, and he had nothing to do, so he read "Yanyi Supplement" again. ”

"Oh?" Gao Gong was overjoyed, but then he said: "Then I'll test you a few words, I'll start, and you memorize the next sentence." ”

Gao is pragmatic and fearless: "Please start the third uncle." ”

"The so-called self-cultivation is in the right heart......"

Gao pragmatic immediately said: "If you are angry, you can't be right; If there is fear, there is no right; If you have fun, you can't do it; If there is a problem, it will not be corrected. ”

Gao Gong asked again: "What is Cheng Zi's explanation?" ”

Gao pragmatic replied: "Cheng Zi said: The body is the heart. ”

"What is Zhu Zi's interpretation?"

Gao pragmatic replied: "Angry, Fu Fan is anti." 懥, the value of the anti. Good, happy, and sound. Angry, angry. The cover is the four, all for the use of the heart, and the one that people cannot do without. However, if you have it and can't detect it, you want to win with emotion, and you can't do what you use it without losing its integrity. Absent-minded, blind, hearing but not smelling, eating without knowing what it tastes like. If the heart does not exist, then there is no way to examine its body, so that the gentleman will observe it and respect it, and then this heart will always exist and the body will not be cultivated. This is called self-cultivation in the right heart. ”

In later generations, China's education methods were heavily influenced by Western education methods, which were basically based on encouraging education, that is, whenever children behave a little better, they would be fully praised and encouraged, because this would help children build self-confidence, and children who grew up in this way of education would be more likely to be optimistic and confident and high-spirited in the future.

However, in ancient China, the education methods were basically the opposite, and the main thing they insisted on was frustration education, which was often manifested in artificially raising the standard of educational requirements, so that the educated children often failed to meet the requirements of the teacher, and then punished them, and at the same time vigorously supervised. In this way, children can maintain a modest and cautious attitude, not fall into a situation of pride and complacency, always introspect, guard against arrogance and rashness, and at the same time because of repeated "setbacks", so that they can develop a kind of perseverance and face difficulties.

This is the advantage of each of the two types of education, but they also have their disadvantages. For example, encouraging education can easily make children self-centered and ignore the feelings of others, become arrogant and arrogant, and although they are usually confident, once they encounter setbacks, they are prone to self-doubt, self-abandonment, and even collapse. Although children under frustration education are usually modest and tenacious, they sometimes seem to lack responsibility and are too round, simply put, they lack leadership and dare not be the first.

Of course, this refers to general manifestations and does not preclude the emergence of individual counterexamples.

In later generations, because of the ignorance and backwardness of the Qing Dynasty, the Chinese experienced a painful lesson. Later, the western wind gradually prevailed, and some people even proposed comprehensive Westernization, although it was never implemented in the end, but it has to be said that Western-style thinking was still widely injected, so that China's traditional education model was almost completely replaced by Western education models and ideas.

But Gao Gong obviously does not have a half-star of Western educational thinking, and what he is practicing is still the traditional Chinese-style frustration education. Therefore, he saw that Gao pragmatically responded like a stream, although he was actually quite relieved in his heart, but his face did not show the slightest, but nodded lightly: "I still used some heart." Then he immediately changed his words: "Do you know why I came back so early today?" ”

Gao Shishi's heart suddenly suddenly, and he said secretly: I don't seem to have done anything bad, right?

At that moment, he rolled his eyes and asked tentatively, "Isn't it that your elders have a dispute over certain things?" ”

"Hmph, with Zhao Dazhou here, when will the cabinet be free of controversy?" Gao Gong showed a trace of disgust on his face, and waved his hand, as if to drive away a fly that didn't exist at all: "It's not that the cabinet is discordant - no matter how discordant the cabinet is, I won't let it go and leave the duty in advance...... I am here because today the Holy God has called me to talk to me about something. ”

Gao Gong looked at Gao Pragmatic with blazing eyes, and tapped his left index finger twice on several cases: "A matter related to you, the Holy Lord asked for my opinion." ”

Gao Pragmatic chuckled in his heart, and secretly complained: Emperor Longqing shouldn't really say anything to Gao Gongzhi, right? Could it be that the idea that came out that day, Boss Longqing decided so simply, and was ready to ask Gao Gong if he was against it, and if he didn't object, he would implement it? But...... If you do it, don't sell me! I'm only eight years old now, if you do this, if the matter gets out, will I mess up in the future? Manchu officials must not treat me as an enemy who killed my father?

But Gao Gong stared at him like this, how dare he not respond? I had to make a bitter face and said, "Third uncle, I'm ...... I don't know what's going on. ”

Look at that pitiful appearance, it's not much worse than shouting "The grass people are wronged".

Gao Gong frowned: "Of course you don't know......" He withdrew his hand from knocking on the table, touched his beard, raised his head slightly, his eyes pressed against the beam, thinking, as if he was saying to Gao Shishi, and as if he was just talking to himself: "The saint praised you, and then said, the prince wants you to enter the palace......"

Gao Shishi was taken aback, jumped up directly, and couldn't speak: "Enter...... Entering the palace? ”

Gao Gong was shocked by his sudden shock, then came back to his senses and slapped the table hard: "What is the fuss, jumping up and down, what a system!" Sit down for me! But as soon as his voice fell, he suddenly came to his senses, couldn't help laughing, pointed to Gao Shi and looked up to the sky, and said happily: "You kid, where did you think of it?" It's not that 'entering the palace'! ”

It is related to the safety of the little brother, and this matter can not be negligent, so Gao Pragmatic is still nervous, and asks suspiciously: "There are many kinds of entering the palace?" ”

Gao Gong said slightly: "Who dares to let the descendants of my Gao family do that act of betraying my ancestors!" He waved his hand a little annoyed, stopped playing dumb riddles, and said bluntly: "What the prince means is that he wants you to enter the palace to study with him." However, although the children of important ministers served as the prince's companions, there was no precedent in our dynasty, and the saint was worried about the discussion of the outer court, so he first asked me what I thought. ”

Gao was so surprised that he could put an egg in his mouth, and he didn't say anything for a while.

Gao Gong suddenly stared at him intently: "You shouldn't have mentioned it to the prince yourself, right?" ”
