Chapter 206: The Nine Sages Discuss the Dao!
"Oh~! Finally, I can transfer to the arithmetic hall! Brother Zifan, this time it's thanks to you! In the future, we can also take two days off every five days. β
Inside the Taigakukan Teaching Building.
Yu Dongcai patted Sun Zifan's shoulder excitedly and laughed.
"Hehe, Dongcai, do you think that I went to great lengths to transfer to the Arithmetic Hall just for this?"
Sun Zifan laughed in a low voice.
The little fat man's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he approached Sun Zifan's side awkwardly and asked, "Oh? Could it be that Brother Zifan's move has another meaning? β
"Hey, hey!"
Sun Zifan laughed proudly, and then he said mysteriously: "Of course, Dongcai, you think about it, Dr. Li has taught Mu Assistant Coach them before, strictly speaking, we all have to call him Master, right?" β
"Well, that's true!"
"Hehe, but after we were transferred to the Arithmetic Hall in two days, Dr. Li became our master, and Assistant Teacher Mu became our senior brother, and we, wouldn't we have become the uncles of other students! Aha~! β
Sun Zifan said with a sneer.
Yu Dongcai was stunned by his buddy's strange thinking, but after thinking about it, he also felt that this was indeed the case, so he quickly gave a thumbs up and laughed:
"Yes, yes, Brother Zifan's words are reasonable, reasonable! Ha ha! I didn't expect you and me to become uncles so soon, hahaha! β
This wild laughter immediately attracted the attention of the other students in the teaching room.
"Smack!"
Sun Zifan slapped him hatefully, and said angrily: "Are you stupid?" Is it so loud to let everyone know? β
"Uh, sorry, sorry! But why hasn't Assistant Teacher Mu come today? β
Yu Dongcai rubbed the back of his head, and then asked suspiciously.
Sun Zifan rolled his eyes and said, "Where do I know?" But at noon, let your boy buy a newspaper and pay me a copy, did you buy it? β
Yu Dongcai hurriedly smiled and said, "Haha, Brother Zifan, don't worry, I have already sent my scholar to the Qiqu Pavilion to inquire about this newspaper, and I will definitely be able to buy it at that time." β

In the pine forest to the east of the country.
Nine gentlemen from different schools sat on the stone benches in the forest, drinking and talking, so that they could live freely.
"Assistant Teacher Mou, this Ma Zhou can write such a splendid article, he must be a great sage, I don't know if you have heard of this person before?"
Wang Yalun took the lead in asking with a glass of turbid wine.
"Dr. Wang, this person has been unknown before, and he has never heard of it, but now this Ma Zhou Ming is amazing, which really amazes everyone!"
Assistant Teacher Mu hurriedly replied.
Wang Yalun nodded, brushed his beard and groaned: "Well, the old man has different views on some of Ma Zhou's views, but I don't know, if the old man writes an article, can he be published in this "Datang Daily", and then he can debate with Ma Zhou on the same stage." β
The rest of the teaching assistants and doctors also chimed in: "Yes, if you can debate with Ma Zhou on the same stage, it would be the best!" β
"Yes, yes!"
Assistant Teacher Mu replied: "I also have this idea, but I don't know how to publish the article in Datang Daily. Why don't I wait and watch it together, how about it? β
"That's a great thing!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Suddenly.
"Shocked! The murderer is so mad that he destroys all over the house! γβ
Why did this article start in the vernacular? Not the slightest bit of style? β
"Yes, it's disappointing, but it's very interesting!"
"Well, maybe this Ma Zhou deliberately used the vernacular, so that ordinary people could understand it."
After reading the first news, the nine gentlemen couldn't help but talk about this huge change from literary to vernacular.
""The drunken scholar met the Qinglou Oiran by chance, and he did such an unbearable thing! γβ
"Chang'an Wuhou rushed to a widow's house in Zhaozhuang overnight, the reason turned out to be like this! γβ
"Shocked! A woman would do such a thing in broad daylight! γβ
followed three news articles in succession, but everyone was dumbfounded.
"I thought this Ma Zhou was an elegant person, but I didn't expect it to be so vulgar!"
"Yes, the titles of the following articles are exaggerated and vulgar, which is really insulting!"
"How can my generation of scholars be so shameless! What an abomination! β
The voices were almost one-sided, almost all of them condemned Ma Zhou, and Ma Zhou suddenly changed from the clouds where everyone worshipped to the scum of Sven who everyone criticized and wrote.
Only Assistant Teacher Mu and Wang Yalun did not speak, and after the rest of the people finished criticizing, Wang Yalun opened his mouth and smiled: "The old man doesn't think so, the so-called vulgar is elegant, and vulgarity and elegance are just a thought, it depends on how you look at it." The old man guessed that this part was mainly written for those who were barely literate and had no study of the scriptures and poems. β
"Why does Brother Aaron think so?"
"yes, why are these topics so good?"
Wang Yalun glanced at Assistant Teacher Mu and said with a faint smile: "Assistant Teacher Mu seems to have something in his heart, why don't Assistant Teacher Mu tell me your opinion?" β
Assistant Teacher Mu straightened up and said in a deep voice, "I think Ma Zhou may have written this on purpose." Dr. Wang said before that these articles are written for the people, so these titles are more pleasing to the people and will make them more interested in reading them. I think this is the smartest thing about Ma Zhou, when it should be elegant, when it should be vulgar, when it should be vulgar! β
Wang Yalun stroked his palm and smiled: "Assistant Teacher Mu is right, and the old man thinks so too." Let's keep looking! β
Wang Yalun is the oldest here, and when he said this, the rest of the people couldn't refute it, so they continued to read it together.
"Shocked! Astound! The man will be silent when he sees it, and the woman will cry when he sees it! γβ
Everyone gradually got used to the pompous title, and this time they didn't make a fuss, and when they saw the content, they were all surprised.
"Huh~? This "Datang Daily" actually solicited manuscripts from everyone? β
"Male or female, and very well paid?"
"This method is very novel!"
"Dr. Wang, do you want to send your masterpiece to this interesting culture?"
"Yes, Dr. Wang, your scripture and righteousness articles are done seamlessly!"
When Wang Yalun heard this, he was quite moved, he didn't care very much about the reward given by Strange Culture, but the literati have a good name, who doesn't want his articles to be seen by the world?
"What my colleagues said is that the old man is out of company, so I will write an article and debate with this Ma Zhou!"
With that, he and the rest of the people said goodbye and left in a hurry.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Uh, the blood collapsed, I fell asleep in bed last night while writing and writing, and I woke up at three o'clock in the morning and quickly finished writing and sending it, I'm really sorry for everyone. Fortunately, I can buy a leave note, otherwise the full attendance will be gone, and I can only eat soil, it seems that I must have a manuscript to save it!
