Chapter 2 Liu Bei, the One Who Was Born to Know, completed ten thousand books in eight years
When Liu Bei was born, the Liu family was quite wealthy, Liu Bei's grandfather was an official to Fan Ling in Dongjun, and Liu Bei's father was also filial piety and was a petty official in Zhuo County, but Liu Sheng died early, so it was difficult for the Liu family to survive, not to mention that after Liu Bei was King Jing of Zhongshan, the family naturally had a collection of more than 100 books.
Since Liu Bei was born, he was able to speak and walk at the age of one year, Liu Hong invited a famous teacher to teach Liu Bei for Liu Bei, saying that it was a famous teacher, in fact, he sent the one-year-old Liu Bei to the teacher at the entrance of the village to learn to read and write.
Studying with other five or six-year-old children, due to the intelligence and learning experience of the soul in his previous life, Liu Bei's cognition of Chinese characters is now particularly fast. Even the old master who taught him said to his father many times: "Your son Liu Bei is a prodigy? Those who practice words like this have only seen it in my life! ”
After only one year of study, Liu Bei learned all the words, and during the study of characters, Liu Bei spent a lot of time practicing words. Because the main way of writing in the Eastern Han Dynasty was to carve bamboo slips, ordinary people could not afford to use cloth and Cai Lun paper, so Liu Bei's practice of writing on bamboo slips.
The copybook is the copybook of Zhang Heng of this dynasty, this copybook is still left by Liu Bei's grandfather, which is a family heirloom, so Liu Bei wrote a good hand when he was two years old, but because he was still young. I don't have a lot of strength when I write.
From the age of two, Liu Bei began to read the Analects, and when he was straight, Lu Zhi happened to return to Zhuozhou after completing his studies, and taught in Zhuozhou, so Liu Hong sent the two-year-old Liu Bei to Lu Zhi to study.
In 164, Liu Hong took Liu Bei to Lu Zhi's small academy. At that time, it was not like the current compulsory education, it cost money, especially learning with a great Confucian like Lu Zhi cost more money, because there was no printing in the Eastern Han Dynasty, all the books were retained by handcopying, and the general learning was dictated by the teacher, and the students copied it themselves, which was regarded as preaching and teaching.
And Liu Bei's family has a collection of more than 100 books, which was already a relatively good scholar at that time, and he had memorized all the books in his family in the year he was learning characters, but the specific understanding was not very much, so Liu Bei begged Liu Hong to send him to Lu Zhi to study!
When Lu Zhi knew that Liu Bei was less intelligent and only two years old, he accepted the two-year-old Liu Bei out of love, and gave Liu Bei a certain reward in the area of academic qualifications!
Lu Zhi is a native of Zhuo County, Zhuo County, with a height of eight feet and two inches, a voice like a Hong Zhong, and Lu Zhi has a resolute personality, studying under Taiwei Chen Qiu, Daru Ma Rong, etc., and is the same senior brother of Zheng Xuan, Guan Ning, and Hua Xin. Since I was a child, I like to read, and I am very concerned about national affairs, so I have always had the idea of Kuang Fu Sheji.
At that time, there was also Gongsun Zhan who was studying at Lu Zhi's place. Gongsun Zhan's character Bogui is beautiful, his voice is loud, witty and eloquent, he was born noble, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is good at shooting.
To get back to the point, at that time, Liu Bei was studying at Lu Zhi's place, and after the apprenticeship was completed, Lu Zhi asked: "Liu Bei, I know that you are less intelligent, I don't know how many Chinese characters you know, and how far your studies have progressed. ”
Liu Bei thought for a while, and said: "Chinese characters have all been recognized, can read and write, can be small seals and official books, are all copies of Zhang Heng's scripts of the Dynasty, but the strength is still lacking, the doctrine has learned the "Analects", "Spring and Autumn", "Zuo Chuan", "Liutao", and other books, but not all can be recited, there is the last sentence to remember the next sentence, the essence of this because no one has taught so have not been studied! ”。
Lu Zhi couldn't help but show a shocked expression: "Liu Bei, are you laughing with me?" What can a two-year-old child understand? ”
Gongsun Zhan, who was also older than Liu Bei on the side, also looked at Liu Bei in great surprise, I have been studying with the teacher for the third year, but I have just met all the men, and I have just started to learn the "Analects", so the teacher praised me for my intelligence, I didn't expect that my junior brother is so powerful, and I want to be close to him in the future.
Liu Bei made a side gesture and said, "The student doesn't dare, please try it!" ”
"Okay, I'll answer the question, and see if it's as you say!" Lu Zhi nodded, then found a copy of "Analects" from the bookshelf, found a paragraph and said: "The Tao is governed by government, and all are punished, and the people are free and shameless; What's next? ”
After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he stared at Liu Bei.
Liu Bei then calmly replied: "The Tao is virtuous, the way is polite, shameful and qualified." The meaning of this sentence is: to restrain the people by political means and to regulate order by criminal means, the people will try to avoid without feeling ashamed; Enlighten the conscience of the people with moral education, and regulate the order with propriety, and the people will both obey the order and know shame. This passage is from the chapter "Analects of ---- for Politics", I don't know if my answer is correct, sir? ”
Gongsun Zan on the side looked at Liu Bei in surprise, the book "Analects", he has just learned, and has not yet begun to memorize and memorize, and the teacher of the political chapter has not yet begun to explain, but he did not expect that this junior brother Liu Bei has really finished practicing.
Lu Zhi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and pretended to continue rummaging in the "Analects", and then said: "Great wisdom is not wise, great planning is not planned, great courage is not brave, and great profit is not good; ”
Liu Bei smiled slyly: "Those who benefit the world will be enlightened by the world; Those who harm the world will be closed in the world. The meaning of this sentence is that there is wisdom and no wisdom, there is a plan and there is no plan, there is courage and not brave, and there is combat effectiveness and no combat effectiveness. It depends on what the situation is, and if it is beneficial to the people, the people will do their best. What is harmful to the people will not be used. It illustrates the truth that there is much help for the righteous and little help for the unjust. But teacher, this sentence comes from "Liutao, Wentao, Bingdao Twelfth", not "Analects", I didn't Kuang teacher, I never thought that the teacher was actually prepared. ”
"It seems that Liu Bei, you really learned "Analects", "Spring and Autumn", "Zuo Chuan" and "Liutao". The more Lu Zhi listened, the happier he became, and he couldn't help but say, but his psychology blossomed, "It's my blessing that I can teach such a prodigy, when he becomes famous in the world, it is also the time when I become famous in the world again!" But he said again: "Liu Bei, you have already learned so much, I don't have much to teach you here!" ”
The young Liu Bei shook his head and said modestly: "There is a road to the mountain of books, there is no end to the sea of learning, I am afraid that I will not be able to finish learning the talent of the teacher, I have to learn the way of life with Mr., the way of administration, the way of using soldiers, and so on." After working hard as a teacher, I will definitely study hard and live up to the teacher's heart! ”
"Liu Bei, sit down! Gongsun Chan, sit down too! Hearing Liu Bei's words, Lu Zhi stretched out his hand to let Liu Bei and Gongsun Zhan sit down, and Lu Zhi himself sat back on the main seat, and muttered: "Liu Bei, you have learned a lot, being a man, administration, and the art of war, and then I will reformulate the teaching plan according to what you have learned, and Liu Bei, you should currently integrate what you have learned to the point where you can memorize it, and the essence of the article also needs to have your own opinions, otherwise it will be the same as the clouds, before you said that you have not learned the essence, So before I tested your two sentences, is your own understanding?. ”
"Yes, teacher, I read several books by myself, memorize them by myself, and read the books a hundred times to reveal their meanings, because I read more, I will understand some essences, and I need more guidance from the teacher!" Liu Bei arched his hand.
Lu Zhi nodded and said: "Yes, it's a good idea again, I will reorganize it according to what you have learned, and from tomorrow, I will re-teach according to your learning progress, Gongsun Zhan, don't be discouraged, I will also follow your progress, and you must also strive to catch up with Liu Bei's progress as soon as possible!" Today I won't teach you other content, you can review it by yourself, and when you are tired, you can play it yourself in the back martial arts arena, Gongsun Zhan, your martial arts are good, you can teach Liu Bei martial arts in the martial arts arena! ”
"No!" Liu Bei and Gongsun Chan nodded, and Liu Bei picked up a copy of "Han Feizi" from the bookshelf and began to read it, while Gongsun Chan continued to study his own "Analects" honestly.
At that time, Liu Bei worshiped Lu Zhi as his teacher, so he worshiped Gongsun Chan as his senior brother, and Gongsun Chan taught Liu Bei martial arts and riding archery during the recess! It can be said that when Liu Bei was studying at Lu Zhi, he and Gongsun Zhan were also teachers and friends.
In fact, Liu Bei has been exercising his body since he was a child, after all, he was the king of special forces in his previous life, and he still has a lot of experience in how to enhance his physique, endurance, etc. without harming his body! The military physical boxing and other things that the army learned before were also practiced, but there was no martial arts training like the ancient military general system, and it happened that the existence of Gongsun Zhan, who was also a teacher and a friend, made up for Liu Bei's shortcomings!
