The key to the so-called interpretation of the classics is to interpret the meaning or general meaning of the Confucian classics in the form of annotations, and the key is not to fully annotate the annotations, but to understand the principles of the classics and interpret them clearly.

In addition, it is calligraphy, or additional ability, that is to say, an article, you not only have to be righteous, but you also have to write beautifully, Li Sanjian has a headache, understand the classic righteousness, Li Sanjian can also pass the previous Chinese foundation, plus Li Sanjian's cleverness, diligence can barely understand, but calligraphy is not an overnight thing, not a few years but decades of invasion, how can you write a hand of calligraphy that flies and dances, and enters the wood?

When Li Sanjian was studying, he also tried to practice calligraphy as much as possible to keep his words from looking so ugly.

A book or a sentence can also be understood by referring to the commentaries of the predecessors, but there are many commentaries of the predecessors of a Confucian classic, and there are various understandings, so you have to judge the correct understanding from them and interpret them.

The key to interpretation is to solve the question, the question is expensive and concise, when it is subtle but not obscure, one sentence or two sentences to break the question for the upper also, followed by three sentences, and then four sentences, a lot of verbose writing to solve the problem, that is, a waste of firewood, in the imperial examination in this case, the examiner will directly throw away your paper.

The words used in the topic are all the bones of an article, and those who have no void should be followed later, which is the basic skeleton of an article.

In addition, there are also recognition, inheritance, ideas, language and so on.

Zi said (colon) :(preceding quotes) "Yidi has a king (comma), not as good as the death of Zhuxia (full stop)." (post-quotation marks)"

Huang Lian, a professor of county studies in Lingshan County, Qinzhou, slowly read the questions of this public examination.

What made Li Sanjian feel secretly amused was that he presented Huang Lian's sentence reading method, and Huang Lian actually read it out in public at this time, as if he was afraid that other students would not understand.

But it's no wonder that Li Sanjian thought that Huang Lian could quickly master this method of sentence reading, but if the comprehension and learning ability of other students were uneven, Huang Lian would be a good way to do this.

At the same time, it also shows that Li Sanjian's sentence reading method has been recognized by Huang Lian, compared with the past, this sentence reading method can not only enable the county students to understand the meaning of the scriptures more easily and quickly.

This title is taken from the Eight Hundred Chapters of the Analects.

If you want to interpret the meaning of the scriptures, you first need to understand the meaning of this sentence, and Li Sanjian first translated this sentence in his own language in his heart.

The so-called eight hundred is sixty-four people, 佾, the meaning of ranks. According to the "Zhou Li", only Zhou Tianzi can use eight hundreds, the princes are six, the secretary is four, and the scholars use two, which is a matter of etiquette.

Li Sanjian understood that the meaning of this sentence was that although Yidi had a monarch, it was better than the Central Plains countries without a monarch.

Of course, this is only a literal understanding, and to penetrate the meaning of the scriptures, it must be understood in the text, and cannot be taken out of context.

If you want to explore "Yidi's king, it is better to die in the summer." The meaning of the Analects must be interpreted in its entirety.

The first chapter of the Eight Hundred says that the Jisun family transgressed the etiquette system and enjoyed the dance of the Son of Heaven, and the second said that Mengsun, Uncle Sun, and Ji Sun played the music of the Son of Heaven at the end of the sacrifice, that is, the song "Yong", which was extremely transgressive.

Under these circumstances, Confucius was extremely dissatisfied with the three families of Mengsun, Shusun, and Jisun were ministers of the Lu state, and openly transgressed the system of etiquette and music, and asked, what is the use of observing etiquette if a person does not have a heart of benevolence? If a person does not have charity, what is the use of rejoicing?

People are not kind, what is the courtesy? People are not kind, how can they be happy?

This is the thesis of Confucius's entire essay.

Confucius believed that the most fundamental reason why the three slaves of the Lu State dared to openly transgress the system of etiquette and pleasure was the lack of benevolence.

In the face of the current situation of the collapse of etiquette and music, Confucius advocated the restoration of the culture of etiquette and music, and to understand the meaning of Confucius, it is necessary to connect with the situation of the Zhou room at that time.

After the Zhou family moved eastward, the authority of the emperor of Zhou declined, and the strength of the emperor and the princes further changed in the Spring and Autumn period. At this time, there was no way in the world, the princes were above the Son of Heaven, and the Zhou family existed in name only.

"Fuyi Di still has a king, and Huaxia has no king... Li Sanjian pondered for a long time and understood the key, so he put pen to paper, generally speaking, the first sentence of the paraphrase article is that dual sentences must be used to solve the problem, and it should be concise and to the point, and quickly enter the topic.

After Li Sanjian broke the question, he began to clarify his own point of view, or his understanding of the sentence of Bayu.

Li Sanjian wrote that since the Zhou Dynasty moved south, the royal family gradually declined, the princes of the Spring and Autumn Period rose, the five hegemons rose one after another, fought against each other, and the etiquette collapsed. And within the princes, the monarch is weak, and the doctor is in charge of the country's affairs, so the Lu Guoji Sun clan trespasses and uses the Eight Hundred Dance, the brigade sacrifices Mount Tai, and the salute is not complete.

Li Sanjian believes that Confucius's proclamation of his concept of ritual music in this article is intended to restore the ritual system of Zhou rites and recreate the civilization of three generations of ritual music, and Ji Sun's actions are contrary to this.

The people of Yidi are simple, and they still have the positions of the upper and lower monarchs and ministers, and the Zhuxia is in chaos, so Yidi has a king, and it is not as good as the death of the Zhuxia, and the meaning of this sentence is that Yidi still has the distinction between monarchs and ministers, and Zhuxia is chaotic, and there is no ruler in his eyes, and the etiquette is broken.

"Those who are in the world are also the people in the world. Non-North-South, Chinese, and Foreign-Acquired Private. Shun Dongyi, King Wen Xiyi, how can there be no difference between east and west? Orthodoxy must be related! ”

Li Sanjian finally took a sharp turn for the worse, and in the last sentence of the article, he sarcastically satirized Confucius once.

In the sentence of the Analects, Confucius has a somewhat "Yidi view" and a somewhat "Yixia defense".

Although Li Sanjian's father is Han, his mother is a Li person, and in the eyes of the world, he is Yidi, at least half of Yidi.

For this reason, Li Sanjian was deeply unhappy in his heart, the ancient sages and gentlemen were still able to tolerate Yidi, why did you Confucius want to "defend against Yixia"?

Li Sanjian was suddenly able to write articles at this time, which has a lot to do with the dream some time ago, Li Sanjian has recalled the past at this time, or has inherited some of the skills of Li Sanjian in the past, his father Li Qing taught him Dundun, and his mother Fu Erniang loved him very much, and so on, Li Sanjian and the former Li Sanjian have become one, but the former Li Sanjian was a demented child, and his memory is extremely limited, but his father Li Qing is a "cramming" professor, made Li Sanjian know most of the words in this world, and got a lot of knowledge in the past.

。。。。。。。。

"Fuyi Di still has a king, and Huaxia has no king...

After the public examination, it is the evaluation, if the county school is excellent, it is very likely to be recommended to enter the state school, and then it is possible to enter the Taixue.

At this time, after reading Li Sanjian's article, Zeng Wei, a county scholar in Lingshan County, Qinzhou, couldn't help but praise: "Wonderful! The old man hasn't read such a wonderful text for a long time.,The interpretation is accessible.,That's it.。。。 Word... too... ”

Li Sanjian's calligraphy is indeed too ordinary, and it is so embarrassing that it is not visible at all.

However, Li Sanjian's interpretation of the scriptures is indeed more accurate and unusual, which is completely different from the quotations from other disciples, quoting the commentaries of his predecessors, and even directly copying the commentaries of his predecessors.

The most important thing is Li Sanjian's own opinions, which are smooth and reasonable.

"Those who are in the world are also the people in the world. Non-North-South, Chinese, and Foreign-Acquired Private. Shun Dongyi, King Wen Xiyi, how can there be no difference between east and west? Orthodoxy must have something to do ... When Huang Jian read Li Sanjian's last sentence, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "The saint actually dares to be sarcastic? ”

"Hahahaha" After hearing this, all the scholars were stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed.

Li Sanjian's mother is a Li person, and all the scholars have known about this matter for a long time, and it has already been written in the document.

All the scholars felt that Li Sanjian was a little uncontrollable and a little juvenile, but it was no wonder that all the scholars thought that Li Sanjian was originally a young man who was less than fifteen years old.

At the same time, the scholars were amazed that this article was written by a boy under the age of fifteen.

"Who should be better this time?" Huang Lian then asked.

"It's none other than Danzhou apprentice Li Sanjian." Zeng Wei replied.

Zeng Gong is the nephew of Zeng Wei, Xueyu of Lingshan County, Zeng Wei is a loyal and upright person, and he recommended Li Sanjian to avoid his relatives, and Zeng Gong's article is indeed inferior to Li Sanjian.

"Although Li Sanjian's article is wonderful, his calligraphy is also too ... It's commonplace. A scholar surnamed Zhang objected: "The essay of the apprentice Sima Du is also outstanding, the interpretation is accessible, and the calligraphy and writing are excellent, and Sima Du's public examinations are all superior, so I think this public examination should also be Sima Du." ”

If Li Sanjian surpasses Sima Du in this public examination and becomes an honor student, and at the same time comes several times, Li Sanjian is likely to replace Sima Du to enter the state to learn to listen and read, so this scholar is a little anxious.

。。。。。。。。

"Han Ren, I'm going to be recommended to study and read in the state, what do you think?" Huang Jian said to Li Sanjian.

Go to the state to learn to listen and read? Li Sanjian was a little surprised when he heard this, didn't he say that the quota for entering the state had already been given to Sima Du? Why did Huang Lian say this at this time?

Of course, Li Sanjian understands the advantages of entering the state school, that is, it is only one step away from the Taixue, and at the same time, the state school is much better than the county school in terms of scale, book collection and the treatment of students.

Li Sanjian is faced with such a temptation, how should he deal with it?
