Chapter 67 I want to reform the style of writing
Such desperate words are like throwing a bomb. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Although the people in the audience are good at qi cultivation, they still have a shocked look on their faces after listening to Luo Yan's words. Like the younger ones, some of them were depressed, some were indignant, and there was a little noise on the field.
Fang Xuanling had to shout "Silence" to shock the audience. Although what Luo Yan said was a little surprising, he hadn't finished speaking, so naturally he couldn't let the noise on the field continue. Moreover, if the form is not controlled, I am afraid that some people will leave it.
Seeing that the scene was quiet again, Luo Yan didn't care what Li Shimin's expression was, and said to himself: "The abolition of the East Palace is related to the society. The abolition of the prince over the past generations is nothing more than immorality and rebellion, if it is not a serious crime, how can it be easily abolished. ”
As he spoke, Luo Yan raised his head and asked everyone present: "In all fairness, the current prince, what is there to transgress?" ”
Luo Yan's question really stopped everyone present.
Today's crown prince Li Jiancheng, if you really want to talk about it, he is already a very virtuous prince. In terms of military merits, although he is worse than Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng has followed Li Yuan to fight in the south and north from the beginning of Li Yuan's army, which is nothing more than the number of times he led the troops than Li Shimin; As for political affairs, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng, as the crown prince, has also been a great help to his own Lao Tzu politically, but Li Shimin has done a lot less like this. As for talent, there is nothing to find fault with, otherwise how could someone like Wei Zheng sell himself to Li Jiancheng just because of an official position.
The fact that these people support Li Shimin is only due to political views and personal preferences. So it's too difficult to catch Li Jiancheng's pigtails.
"For today's plan, it is just to respond to all changes with the same, otherwise, I am afraid that we will follow in the footsteps of Mr. Du one by one." Luo Yan actually doesn't have any good way now, he can't tell Li Shimin directly, if you cut Li Jiancheng, you are the prince. If he wanted to say this, he himself would have to be cut down by Li Shimin.
There was no way, Luo Yan could only come up with such a bad idea. After all, the form has not been so bad that Li Shimin has no way out, and everyone is playing with the mentality of hello, hello, hello, everyone.
After saying so many heart-pounding words, I originally thought that Luo Yan would give some earth-shattering plan, but who would have thought that in the end, it would be such a negative approach. No one wants to believe Luo Yan's words now, after Li Shimin heard it, he was also a little disappointed in his heart, but he just saw that Luo Yan was still young, so he comforted him a few words, and then turned his eyes to others.
Among the second-rate strategists, Luo Yan, who was the most optimistic, had fallen off the altar, and the others naturally wanted to be on top, so they spoke enthusiastically. Seeing those people talking about particularly radical methods, Luo Yan could only helplessly bow his head and continue to think about his future path.
When the initial suggestion evolved into the final touting, even Li Shimin himself couldn't listen to it, and the banquet ended hastily.
On the way back, Luo Yan was complained by Old Master Lu for a while.
"Come in, you're too hasty to do tonight." Lu Deming still didn't understand Luo Yan's approach, so he could only say this about Luo Yan.
"Teacher, in fact, the disciple must say this today, and he can only say this." Luo Yan still didn't want to hide it from his teacher.
"Oh? How so? Lu Deming was a little puzzled.
"As for the prince's opinion, I think even a teacher can't help but admit that he is right. The current situation is not too grim, so everyone is optimistic that King Qin still has hope, but in the eyes of the disciples, I am afraid that King Qin wants to sit in that position, and without going through a bloody storm, how can it be so easy to complete the transfer of power. "Luo Yan can only explain his thoughts to Lu Deming clearly." Although the disciples will definitely become the laughing stock of those people for a while, I think they will change their minds when my words are fulfilled today. ”
Since Luo Yan said so, Lu Deming didn't have much to say.
What Luo Yan really wanted to say to Lu Deming was about the reform of poetry and literature that he thought of at the banquet. So seeing that Lu Deming was silent, Luo Yan began to get to the point.
"Teacher, in fact, the disciple was distracted at the banquet, and he really thought of the matter of learning. The disciple wanted to discuss it carefully with the teacher. Luo Yan pondered for a moment and said to Lu Deming.
"Well, in that case, let's talk about it in the study of the house." Although it was a matter of learning, Lu Deming treated it more cautiously than he had just talked about the banquet. The coachman was sent by Li Shimin, so Luo Yan would naturally pay attention when he spoke. But in terms of academic matters, since Luo Yan only mentioned it, it means that it is not suitable for more people to know about it for the time being.
The carriage quickly drove to the Lu Mansion, and after getting out of the car, the master and apprentice entered the study, and after Lu Deming sat down, Luo Yan immediately opened his mouth. This kind of thinking in his heart is too far away from the current literary world, which can't help but be excited.
"Teacher, I want to make the poems retro." Luo Yan's words were messy, although he tried to express his inner thoughts in the simplest words, but obviously he had no way to fully express them at this time.
"Sit down and speak slowly." Pointing to the chair next to him, Lu Deming said.
Following his teacher's advice, after sitting down and taking a long breath of relief, Luo Yan began to explain carefully: "The teacher also knows that the disciple has read a lot of books in the past six months, so he was a little carried away some time ago. However, when I write about it, I really feel that this prose has too few words and too many words, which is too gorgeous, and violates my Confucian essence. Therefore, the disciple wants to change the current tone of this article. ”
"Do you know what you're up against?" Lu Deming did not answer his attitude towards Luo Yan's thoughts directly, but asked Luo Yan.
"This is nature. Since the Six Dynasties, literature has become extravagant, and in the long run, Confucianism is in danger. It's just that for so many years, this style of writing has been very popular, not only for ordinary students, but also for the children of these families with five surnames and seven wangs. If the disciple does this now, I am afraid that he will be pointed out by Qianfu and become an outlier in the literary world. Luo Yan saw very clearly that if he was in a hurry to reform literature at the moment, he would definitely be grinded by the secular torrent.
"And what are you going to do?" Lu Deming still didn't say anything at this time.
"Twenty years of hard study, twenty years of hope." Luo Yan didn't have the courage to say that he would get this thing done within a few years, after all, this is not a trivial matter, after Han Yu Liuzong Yuan Ancient Literature Movement, the follow-up was weak, resulting in the late Tang Dynasty The literary style was all kinds of extravagance, which led to the Song Dynasty's ancient literature movement. Fortunately, there were many talents in the Song Dynasty, so this matter was really done.
No matter how Luo Yan says it, he is a person, if he is lucky enough to live to more than sixty and can meet Chen Ziang and these people, then he is still somewhat sure. For this matter, Luo Yan plans to spend a lifetime doing it.
As for hard study and cultivation, Luo Yan also referred to Wang Anshi's practice.
This famous minister of the Song Dynasty doesn't say much about political matters, but his appeal to Shilin at that time was not ordinarily strong. This prestige can only be achieved after 20 years of painstaking study of the scriptures and continuous writing and teaching.
Luo Yan is also going to take this path.
The reason why he is so confident that he can go on is only because he can contribute to Li Shimin's struggle for the throne, so when the time comes, he will imperceptibly influence Li Shimin, and then go up and down. In this way, coupled with Luo Yan's own hands-on, the effect must be much better.
The most important thing is that he is only seventeen years old this year, even if he does not succeed in twenty years, as long as he pays attention to his body, he will have more time to work hard.
Although this is not as exciting as the battle for domination, and it will also rely on the help of the system, but think about it, being able to change the literary trend of an era with one's own strength is simply the greatest achievement for a literati.
Hearing that Luo Yan was not like a stunned young man, he rushed up when he thought of it, but prepared to slowly figure it out, Lu Deming was very satisfied. And the time limit for this slow picture is very long, a full twenty years. According to Luo Yan's seriousness in reading now, by that time, it is certain that he will not read all the books in the world, but he will read a wide range of books. If you can study the scriptures carefully, it is not impossible to become a family of your own in the end.
"The old man is very pleased that you can think like this. But what the teacher wants to remind you is that no matter what you want to do, don't forget the fundamentals. Since you admit that you are a protégé of Confucianism, then in the end, the study of scriptures is the most important thing. All the articles revolve around this fundamental. ”
After a pause, Lu Deming said again: "Your plan, don't tell anyone else until you have completed your preparations." Also, since you want to change the current style of writing, first of all, you have to be able to do and do a good job of today's articles. Your Jinshike essay is surprising and pragmatic, but if you want to do what you want to do, learn to write a prose first. Well, in the future, I will go to Assistant Teacher Kong's house more. ”
Obviously, Lu Deming agreed with his disciple's idea and was more supportive. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said so much, and he made a move by the way.
As for letting Luo Yanduo go to Kong Yingda's house, that is simply the most important point at the moment.
If you want to say that the most dissatisfied with this glamorous sound now, it must be Kong Yingda. The current style of writing is seriously contrary to the essence of Confucianism. As a descendant of Confucius, it's no wonder that he can endure such a thing. To say that Kong Yingda's efforts now are indeed unknown, but after Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, the "Five Classics of Justice" edited by him, after reading it, I know that Kong Yingda has definitely not been idle over the years.
I'm afraid that those who study hard can only be compared to Luo Yan.
