Chapter 42: The Prodigy Moves (Thanks to My Love Monster Boy Yingying for Becoming the Alliance Leader)
Zhang Yue smiled after hearing Zhuang Xuexue say this, and asked directly: "Oh, then what benefits can Mr. Zhuang get from this?" ”
Zhuang Xuexue listened to Zhang Yue's words and felt that it was a little too straightforward.
But Zhuang Xue didn't say it explicitly, but said with a smile: "San Lang, put the benefits aside first, I dare to ask San Lang Shi Meng first?" ”
Zhang Yue smiled, this Zhuang scholar was still exploring his bottom.
Of course, Zhang Yue understood that if he didn't show enough talent, it would definitely not be enough to convince the other party that this "Three Character Classic" was really written by himself.
Zhang Yue couldn't help but say: "I made it very clear in the three-character poem. At the beginning of man, the nature is good, and he is born with compassion, shame, resignation, and right and wrong. ”
Sex is similar, Xi Xiangyuan has always been a Confucian tradition, needless to say.
The main thing is that sex is good and sex is evil.
Confucius never talked about sexual evil and sexual goodness, but only advocated that people should receive a good education from an early age.
However, his second disciple Xunzi's theory of subjective evil became the foundation of later Legalism, but Mencius advocated the theory of sexual goodness, which was also the fundamental proposition of the later Simeng school and science.
In addition to the theory of sexual goodness, Zhang Yue himself is not a traveler who follows the script, for example, in the three-character classic, the history of 'Yan Song Xing, by Zhou Chan, and the following is 'Eighteen Transmissions, Mixed North and South' to 'Ancient and Modern History, All in Zi' These dozens of sentences were added by later generations and were repaired in the late Qing Dynasty.
The original version of the Southern Song Dynasty only ended up with 'Yan Song Xing, subject to Zhou Chan', and Zhang Yuezi also screened out this part and directly connected it to 'Governing Chaos, Knowing the Rise and Fall'.
Zhang Yue is still very rigorous consciously, so the problem will not be very big.
Zhuang Xue showed a straight face, and then said: "I have been taught, it turns out that San Lang is really a teacher." ”
"But this 'Su Laoquan, twenty-seven. What does it mean to be angry and read books? Who is this Su Laoquan? I've been reading books for half my life, and I don't know where he is. ”
Zhang Yue looked at his left hand when he heard this, and then looked at his right hand, and almost gave himself two mouths on the spot.
Who is Su Laoquan? Su Shi's father.
Su Xun didn't study until he was twenty-seven years old, but he had just entered Beijing with his second son this year, and he was recommended by Ouyang Xiu to become famous in Beijing.
This is also the matter of this year and next year, Zhang Yue actually wrote his name into the three-character scripture?
It's not rigorous!
But at this time, Zhang Yue could only say the wrong way: "Heh! Mr. didn't know about Su Laoquan? ”
Zhuang Xue was surprised: "Is there really such a person?" ”
Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "I don't know if Mr. has read "Heng Theory"? ”
"I haven't read it, have you read the Book of Rights?"
"I've also read it, but have you read "A Few Strategies"?"
Zhuang Xuezhi looked at Zhang Yue and shook his head in confusion, these three consecutive questions made him feel a little lonely.
I'm relieved that you haven't read it. I haven't read it either, I just remember the title.
Zhang Yue said with regret: "Su Laoquan's article is nothing more than Liu Xiang and Jia Yi's resurrection, this is not what I said, but what Mr. Ouyang said." ”
"Jingshi Ouyang Gong?"
"Yes, Su Laoquan's name has already spread all over the capital now, and it is too late for Mr. to read his article today. Not only him, but in my opinion, the name of Sansu will spread all over the world sooner or later! ”
"Sansu?"
Zhang Yue had an expression of 'you don't even know this': "There is also his second son, who is also the dragon and phoenix among people." ”
"I was taught, but I didn't expect that San Lang would be able to recognize the characters of Jingshi before he left the county...... It's really ......."
When Zhang Yue heard this, he had no choice but to laugh and not answer.
"Yes, San Lang takes 'University, Analects, Mean, Mencius' as the four books, I don't know what the basis is, and what is the source?"
Zhang Yue said with a smile: "But I try to say, the four books are also called the four books, the university is from Zengzi, the Analects is from Confucius, the mean is from Zisi, and Mencius is from Mencius, so I call it the Four Sons." ”
Zhuang Xue said with a smile: "I'm afraid this is too controversial, and someone will argue when it reaches the imperial court." ”
Zhang Yue said: "I said it earlier, and this is my family's words.
Zhuang Xuezhi smiled when he heard this: "San Lang doesn't know, in the Han Dynasty, 'filial piety and honesty test the scriptures worship Lang, and young and talented people worship Tong Zilang'." This dynasty also follows this system, and there are prodigies! ”
"Zhenzong has a son who memorizes the Book of Changes at the age of six, and the court gives him a prodigy. After the prodigy of this dynasty, there is no shortage of prodigies who are nine, ten, and twelve years old. ”
Zhuang Xuexuan smiled and felt that he pointed out a bright road to Zhang Yue.
"Saburo can write this poem, there is no doubt that he is a prodigy. In my opinion, San Lang can become famous through three-character poems and present them to the imperial court, and the imperial court will summon you to Beijing and then try it, and if you win, you can be awarded an official. In the three-character poem, it was also said, 'Tang Liu Yan, Fang is seven years old. Raise a prodigy, make orthography', this Liu Yan is a prodigy. ”
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a special prodigy department that was a regular subject, which limited children under the age of ten to participate, as long as they could pass the official award, so there were often people who passed the 'boy' exam and the first.
The Song Dynasty was changed to a system of subjects, which was set up by the edict of the Son of Heaven.
In addition to the examination time, the examination method is different, and the most important thing is that the system is not like the regular subject, as long as the qualified candidates can take the test.
In order to participate in the subject examination, the most important thing is that there must be a recommendation.
In the Song Dynasty, the boy test must be under the age of fifteen and 'have a state to ascend to the dynasty', that is, recommended by the state and county officials to the imperial court, and finally asked by Tianzi himself.
For example, the talented Yan Shu is a fourteen-year-old prodigy and the first, and he was awarded the official by the prodigy.
But Yan Shu is just that, the most mysterious in the prodigy test is Cai Boyu, who was only three years old and passed the boy test and was awarded an official by Song Zhenzong on the spot.
Cai Boli is a native of Fuqing, and Song Zhenzong also wrote a poem 'Seven Fujian landscapes are beautiful, and the three-year-old strange child is in his prime'.
However, there are also many problems with prodigies, and the emergence of prodigies has made many people 'suffer their children, teach the Five Classics, and strive to be prodigies'.
The promotion of the seedlings by the parents, as well as the lying of age, asking for fame, etc., made many people disgusted with the prodigy, so from the atmosphere of advocating prodigies in Taizong Zhenzong, to Renzong, especially in the officialdom, there was a decline.
Generally, officials from the prodigy department are only conferred on officials, not on official assignments. To put it bluntly, the imperial court gives you the money of the officials, but does not give you anything to do.
For example, Yang Yi of the Yang family in Pucheng was recommended by Zhang Quhua, the Jiangnan transfer envoy, and asked by Song Taizong, and was awarded an official at the age of eleven. But he took the Jinshi exam again in the third year of Chunhua, and this really began his journey.
But Zhuang Xuejiu did point out a way out for Zhang Yue, a "Three Character Classic" dedicated to the state and county, for the state and county officials, of course, it is beneficial to culture and education, and at the same time, for the official family to have such a scripture, it is also a prosperous and auspicious time.
And Zhang Yue can make a name for himself, and at the same time he can also be an official.
But Zhang Yue knows his own affairs, where is his own knowledge? The book is memorized to the Book of Poetry, and there are still six of the nine classics that have not been recited.
The other party is Zhuang Xuexue can still fool one or two, but other officials in the court, the big man on one side is not so easy to fool. A good meal is not afraid of being late, and I will study for another year or two, and if I really want to participate in the prodigy, I still have two years of hard work.
So Zhang Yue said: "Thank you Mr. for your kindness, the three-character poem is my family learning, and it is inconvenient to reveal it for the time being." It's not as good as that, how about I write a letter to ask the second brother and then reply to Mr.? ”
"If the second brother agrees, then everything will be up to Mr. Lao at that time."
Zhuang Xuezhi was also contemplative when he heard this, and Zhang Yue gave a statement that was neither agreeing nor refusing.
Zhuang Xuezhu smiled and said: "San Lang is not famous, but he is worried that others will not be convinced that this three-character poem is written by you?" ”
"That's true, Saburo is thoughtful at a young age. Although these three-character poems are plain in language, they do not seem to outsiders to be written by a twelve-year-old child. It's okay for me to say a few words, if outsiders have this question, then there are more doubters, wouldn't it make Saburo's prodigy name a little flawed, so it's really not beautiful. ”
"And what about in my opinion?"
Zhuang Xuezhu stroked his beard and smiled: "Therefore, I have a humble opinion, which can be regarded as a reluctant invitation, if San Lang can worship my door and let me polish one or two of San Lang's three-character poems, then there are some unreasonable points, and it is also reasonable." ”
Zhang Yue thought to himself, is this your real intention?
"Sir, do you mean to cooperate with this three-character poem?"
Zhuang Xuezhi smiled, waved his hand and said: "I don't dare to be, but I can ask San Lang to share some thin names, and there is one more thing I must tell honestly, I am very familiar with Li Xuezheng, a state student, and I usually chant poems together every day." In the future, if you want to promote San Lang as a prodigy, that is a matter of Li Xuezheng's words. ”
Can Mr. Mengxue intersect with the state school? The credibility of this person's speech is also limited.
Zhuang Xuexue also smiled: "San Lang is not in a hurry to answer me, and then think about it." ”
After speaking, Zhuang Xuexue got up and left.
Sent downstairs, Zhang Shi had already returned with a food box, and hurriedly said: "Mr. said that he would stay and eat, why should he leave in a hurry?" Third brother, it's faster than me to stay with Mr. ”
Zhuang Xue smiled: "There are still important things, don't dare to stay for a long time, San Lang, I will visit again in a few days." ”
"Okay."
After speaking, Zhuang Xuexue left in a hurry, and when he was leaving, he was absent-minded, and his foot kicked the door.
Zhang Yue smiled slightly when he saw this.
After Zhang Shi sent Guo Xuexue away, he returned to the house and said, "Third brother, what did Mr. tell you?" ”
Zhang Yue said with a smile: "Recently, I wrote a poem to teach Ah Xi to Mr. Zhuang, and he said that he would report this poem to the state school." ”
Zhang Shiyan was taken aback when he heard this: "There is such a good thing. ”
"But I didn't answer him?"
"Why? Such a great opportunity......"
Zhang Yue touched his stomach and said, "Brother, I'm hungry, let's talk while eating." ”
Zhang Shi shook his head and said, "You eat the most important thing from childhood to adulthood." Help me set the plates, Ah Xi, you go upstairs and call your mother to eat. Third brother, tell me more about ......"
"Okay," Zhang Yue replied absently, and then jerked his head up to look out the window, only to see that the snow had already fallen.
At this moment, as soon as the north wind blows, the wind blows even more.
Pedestrians on the street hurried to their homes, and food was about to arrive.
"Brother, today's monster is so cold." Zhang Yue rubbed his hands and said.
"Yes, can it be cold during the New Year? yes, it's all snowing. It's snowing, it's a good year! Zhang Shi said as he poured the food from the food box into the bowl.
On the side, Zhang Qiu was already jumping downstairs and said: "Daddy, why do you say that Ruixue is a good year?" ”
"Ask your third brother!"
"Third uncle?"
Zhang Yue put the plate on the plate and said: "Because the snow is as soon as it freezes all the insects that eat rice in the field, the crops will grow very well in the coming year." ”
"The third uncle knows so much."
"Don't be a good girl, has your mother invited you down?"
Zhang Qiu shook his head and said, "Dad, my mother said she didn't eat it." ”
"How can you do it without eating?" Zhang Shi put down the matter at hand and said, "Third brother, you give Zhang Luo, I will go upstairs to invite your sister-in-law down, it's not where the temper comes from?" Yes, you have to remember to tell me about Mr. Zhuang. ”
"Yes, brother, you better be careful when you speak, and make a compensatory to your sister-in-law!" Zhang Yue picked up the food, grabbed a piece of sliced goose meat, and quietly stuffed it into Zhang Qiu's mouth.
Zhang Qiu frowned and gnawed with a smile.
Zhang Yue also put the oil and water on his fingers in his mouth and sighed.
"The lady can figure it out. Third brother, is the meal ready? ”
"Great!" Zhang Yue shouted loudly, and Zhang Qiu picked up his sleeve and wiped the oil star from his mouth.
When Zhang Yue brought the food to the table, the wind and snow were even bigger at the moment.
The hills around the county are covered with snow on the tops, but the mountains are still green.
In the cold weather, every house turned on the lights, and the wind and snow drove everyone into the house, and the family gathered at the table to celebrate the festive season. The shouting of pushing the cup and changing the lamp came from afar, and gradually there was an atmosphere of the New Year.
PS: Thank you to my lover for being the fourth leader of this book!
