Volume 1: Twilight Decadence and Wind and Rain Chapter 15: The Rise of the Gentleman (I)
Since the founding of Daning, the inheritance has lasted for the same long time as the national ancestor, and schools in various states and counties have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain with the continuation of the family's incense.
In the early years, hundreds of great Confucian scholars spent several days together to evaluate a ranking of universities, and they are still very convincing to this day.
For example, the Yuelu Academy in Jingchu can be said to be more pompous than the world's universities, and the plaque hanging in front of the main entrance of the school also has four words: 'Only Chu is talented'. It makes people feel proud when they listen to it. For example, in the Songyang School Palace, the first school in the Central Plains, there are as many as 3,000 Confucians who explain the scriptures alone, and the Confucian students who go to study and apprentice every year can go around Chang'an City more than ten times.
But in this ranking of schools, one is Tanhua and the other is the leader, and they all have to eat ashes behind the Taixue Academy.
Mr. Xun said that the plaque at the main entrance of Taixue University was made by him?
Su Yin smiled when he was someone else, and he was all on the sidelines, but today he saw the style of Zhou Nanxing, the head of the Taixue Mansion, and Corporal Lixian, the king of Zhenping, but he couldn't help but believe it.
Half of Su Yin's face twitched a little, and his mouth couldn't close for a long time, for him who had studied in the Taixue Academy for three years, this shock was far more shocking than meeting the group of Beidi people outside the city and seeing the King of Zhenping.
Mr. Xun was very calm, although he was standing at the foot of the steps of the main entrance, not far away, but looking at his Mobao, his eyes seemed deep and far-reaching.
"I'm curious how you understand those four words."
Mr. Xun lowered his head and looked at Su Yin with a light smile. A wisp of green silk floats up with the wind, the left hand is placed in front of him, and the right hand is behind him.
Su Yin came back to his senses, to be honest, he never paid much attention to these four words on the plaque, just the daily firewood, rice, oil and salt are enough for him to be busy, and there is also a heavy study, how can he have the time to guess blindly about these four words?
Su Yin pondered for a moment and said: "A gentleman is a gentleman, he should do something and not do something!" ”
Mr. Xun nodded and said, "This is your opinion, the same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, and everyone has different opinions and opinions on things." Back then, I inscribed these four words, just to let the students of Taixue think for themselves, since they were children, they have been studying the books of sages and sages, and they are gentlemen. What about being born between heaven and earth? People always have to go through many ups and downs in this life, and they also have to make many choices. These choices are the traces you leave in this world, and I just hope that when you make a decision, you won't regret it afterwards. At critical times, I can always remember my original intention and not violate my original intention. ”
Su Yin also smiled: "That gentleman's opinion is that a gentleman is a gentleman, and it doesn't violate his original intention?" ”
Mr. Xun laughed heartily for the first time, and said softly: "There is no answer to the solution of these four words, and it varies from person to person. What I think now is what you said, which is why I returned to Chang'an City. ”
Su Yin's curiosity that had just been dispelled fluttered a few more flames, this Mr. Xun was simply a treasure trove full of mysteries to him, waiting for him to discover.
Whether it was the attitude of those high-ranking people towards Mr. Xun, or the information revealed by the occasional words, Su Yin couldn't help but break the casserole and ask to the end.
The instrument door in the middle of the Taixue Mansion was pushed open from the inside, and out came a few great Confucians who were not strangers to Su Yin, and saw Mr. Xun standing in front of the steps with different expressions, and the atmosphere was also subtle.
Mr. Xun was unfazed, as if he had guessed this expression on their faces.
"Mr. Xun, please inside, the lord of the mansion has ordered a few of us to wait here for a long time."
"I'm tired."
Mr. Xun returned the salute, and the iceberg beauty also stepped down from the carriage, still holding a lyre.
Su Yin hurriedly walked over and said attentively: "I'll come, I'll come." ”
"Su Yin!"
One of the big confucians stopped Su Yin, blew his beard and glared, "When did you become Mr. Xun's domestic servant!" ”
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Mr. Xun with a little jealousy, and then snatched the body of the piano from Su Yin's arms and scolded: "Go home!" ”
Su Yin grinned, naturally he didn't dare to disobey his master's orders, but this great Confucian's move was really intriguing.
Su Yin remembered that on the carriage, Mr. Xun said that half of the people in the court wanted him to die, and the other half didn't want him to enter Chang'an City.
"That's interesting......"
Su Yin touched his chin thoughtfully.
Back to his humble cottage, Li Pingyou and the others had long been nowhere to be found, but fortunately, Li Dagongzi did not burn his cottage in anger to vent his anger, Su Yin picked up the books scattered in the house, and then lay down on the bed, breathing a sigh of relief.
This day is the most memorable day to beat him out of his mother's womb, first Li Pingyou and a few people looked for trouble with him, and then encountered the Beidi killer and Ye Mingsi's sticky pole fight, and in a hurry to stop a carriage and stop Mr. Xun who made the king of Zhenping bow down and salute.
"Xun Tui Twilight ......"
Su Yin frowned and said Mr. Xun's name in his mouth, but he couldn't remember where he had heard this name if he wanted to break his head.
has been in the Taixue Mansion for so long, Su Yin still has a certain understanding of the famous officials in the imperial court, and the three dukes and nine kings, and the six imperial history platforms must have nothing to do with Mr. Xun.
As for the martial arts, the three-kilometer Taiwei Wang Ang was born in the royal family of the Hanoi County Shi clan, and the general Jiang Cheng is the eldest son of the Jiang clan of the Qingzhou clan in the Central Plains.
Besides, Mr. Xun's weak body and bones are not strong, and he has a typical morale, he is not like a martial artist who kills the enemy on the battlefield with a prancing horse and whip.
Su Yin thought about having a headache, and fell asleep in a daze.
At dusk, there was a knock outside the door of the grass house, Su Yin opened his hazy sleepy eyes, yawned and opened the door, and saw Jiang Shuobei rushing into the house with an excited face.
Su Yin wondered, it's really strange today, usually this kid always has a cold face on his face, and he never cares about the big and small things that happen in the Taixue Academy, why does he look like he has eaten a big melon today?
"You're not going to take Wushisan with anyone, are you? So excited? ”
Jiang Shuobei sat on Su Yin's bed without seeing it, rubbed his hands and said, "Fart!" Lao Tzu won't suck that thing even if he dies! ”
Su Yin woke up and felt like he was falling apart, collapsed weakly at the head of the bed, and said with his hands on his head: "Then let's talk about it, what can make our little general of Yingyang Mansion so excited, I'm really interested." ”
Jiang Shuobei stood up like a thief and covered the door, leaned his head in front of Su Yin and said softly: "Do you know who came to our Taixue Mansion today?" ”
Su Yin raised his eyebrows, he had already guessed who Jiang Shuobei was going to say and still made a look at him to continue.
Jiang Shuobei stood up suddenly, and shouted with irrepressible excitement: "Xun Tuidu! Yingchuan's Xun Tui Twilight! ”
