Chapter 15 Chengmen Lixue
"I'm going to wake up your teacher." After that, the old lady wanted to welcome the three of them into the house and wake up Cheng Lao, but she didn't expect Li Zisheng to block Mrs. Cheng's way.
"Master, Zisheng knows that the teacher has a habit of taking a lunch break, but due to heavy snowfall, the students are unfortunate to come at this time, it is because of me, how can I disturb the teacher's dreams in vain. My mother didn't have to wake up my teacher, but Zisheng's parents were quite tired all the way, and I hope that my mother will take my parents to rest for a while, and Zisheng can wait in front of the teacher's door. After saying that, it was another one.
At this time, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and Li Zisheng's parents and Mrs. Cheng wanted to wake up Cheng Fuzi directly, but they were all stopped by Li Zisheng.
The sky is getting darker, the snow has no sign of stopping, and after the three of them were stopped by Li Zisheng many times, they had to look at Li Zisheng standing outside the door of Old Master Cheng, originally Wang and his father wanted to accompany Li Zisheng, but after Li Zisheng's unfilial rhetoric, he had to give up this idea. I could only look at Li Zisheng outside the door anxiously, hoping that Old Master Cheng would wake up quickly.
Mrs. Cheng had already put on a thick cloak for Li Zisheng, looking at Li Zisheng's stubbornness, as if she had seen the young Cheng Zhongliang, the corners of her eyes were full of tears
The snow had accumulated nearly a foot deep. There was a faint cough in the house, and the three people waiting outside the door were also relieved, Li Zisheng had become a snowman at this time, if Old Master Cheng didn't wake up again, the old lady would definitely not care about Li Zisheng's obstruction, and directly wake up Old Master Cheng.
The door opened softly, and a stream of heat wafted out of the room. Old Master Cheng, who was wearing a cloak, was holding a teapot, and suddenly saw Li Zisheng waiting in front of the door.
The snow on Li Zisheng's body has no longer melted, the eyebrows and eyes have become pure white, and the snow under his feet has also accumulated extremely thick. suddenly realized that Li Zisheng didn't want to disturb his nap.
"Little Sage, come in, come in." Cheng Zhongliang put down the teapot in his hand, got up and directly welcomed Li Zisheng into the house, and at this time, Li Zisheng's parents and Mrs. Cheng also entered Cheng Laozi's study directly.
"You old woman, why don't you wake me up, what should I do if I freeze?" Cheng Zhongliang's eyes were full of complaints.
Before the old lady could speak, Li Zisheng hurriedly replied. "Teacher, this is the disciple's obstruction, you can't disturb the teacher's dream because of the disciple, and please ask the teacher to scold me, don't embarrass the master."
Looking at Li Zisheng at this time, Cheng Zhong's conscience was cleansed, eight years old, he may only know the soil and Mengxue outside, but Li Zisheng was able to do it so much, not only that, but at this time, he could also relieve his master and mother without humility or arrogance, and his parents did not see the slightest wetness, which shows that he respects his teacher and respects his heart, and the virtue of filial piety and righteousness.
"The disciple bows to his master and wife, and wishes his master and wife blessings like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and a longevity that is better than the old pine of Nanshan." Li Zisheng also directly buckled his head.
There is gold under the man's knees, but in ancient times, the monarch of heaven and earth was a teacher, and the ritual of bowing was human, so it was natural to bow to the old couple Cheng at this time.
"Haha, Xiaosheng, come on, come on, this is a red envelope, hurry up and take it." The more Mrs. Cheng looked at Li Zisheng, the more she liked it.
Li Zisheng naturally won't be pretentious, so he will accept it right away. Cheng Zhongliang, who was sitting on the chair in the main hall, was also smiling and very happy.
"That little saint, what do you say about this longevity than Nanshan?" Cheng Zhongliang looked at Li Zisheng with a smile, and he also had a little bit of thoughtful meaning, after all, this allusion to Shoubi Nanshan is a congratulatory message in the Book of Poetry, but it also has some origins and is worth studying.
"You old man, Xiao Sheng hasn't warmed up yet, you are making things difficult here, starving you tonight." Mrs. Cheng pretended to be stunned, and Li Zisheng's parents were also happy on the side, but they couldn't say anything, so they simply stood aside honestly and accompanied Mrs. Cheng.
"Shoubi Nanshan comes from the Book of Poetry, Xiaoya, Tianbao, and is taken from the eternity of the moon and the rise of the sun. Such as the longevity of Nanshan, it does not collapse. Such as the pine and cypress of the luxuriant, there is no lack or inheritance. Li Zisheng talked eloquently.
"Oh? What is Nanshan? Cheng Lao touched his beard.
"Poetry, Qin Feng, Zhongnan Zhongshuyun, Zhongnan He has Mao's biography: Zhongnan, the name of Zhou, Zhongnan. The fourth year of Zhao Gong: Santu, Yangcheng, Taimur, Jingshan, Zhongnan, and the danger of Kyushu. This is the direct meaning of Nanshan. After Li Zisheng finished speaking, Cheng Zhongliang didn't expect Li Zisheng's relay to be so strong at this time.
"Little Sage, let me ask you, how do you know this?" Cheng Zhongliang asked.
"Teacher, there are a lot of things about historiography in the books you gave me, and there are also a lot of things about famous mountains and rivers, so in our Tang Dynasty, the importance of historiography and geography and humanities is absolutely very high, so the disciple didn't read more books in this area. Therefore know a thing or two. ”
"Good, good. Children can be taught, children can be taught. Cheng Zhongliang was very happy, and his parents and the old lady were naturally smiling.
"Little Sage, after this year's festival, my wife and I are going to leave here, for the teacher was invited to Chang'an to teach etiquette, originally for the teacher plan, when you get to the county school, take this as a board, with me in the practice of half a year later, take you to the state to study, but this matter happened suddenly, I want to go to Mount Tai to seal Zen through Dao Lingzhou to His Majesty, this is a thousand years of events, for the teacher can not be excused."
"Tarzan Feng Zen? The disciple remembers that borrowing the Dao Lingzhou is really far away. Li Zisheng naturally knew the reason for this matter, but he still asked a little at this moment, he must have read the records in the history books, and he was not clear about the details.
"Well, yes, I have a son and nephew who is the living room of His Majesty Xuanzong of my dynasty, and he revealed to me that His Majesty's move is on the one hand to seal the great cause of Zen, and on the other hand, it is to patrol the territory of our dynasty and show the majesty of my heavenly dynasty. Lingzhou is an important military town adjacent to the Turks, and the first to come to Lingzhou is to deter the Turks and the surrounding Hu people. But the other reason is to find people and talents in the territory of my Celestial Empire. Therefore, this time can be said to be the best time for the world's talents to show their strengths. ”
Cheng Zhong said with a surging conscience, for every person who learns etiquette, this kind of Mount Tai Feng Zen is a very important thing, but it can not be sought, not every emperor is qualified to seal Zen, now the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, the country and the people are safe, His Majesty Xuanzong is virtuous and long, and the people are wanting, so the matter of sealing Zen is on the agenda.
"Disciple, thank you very much. After the Shangyuan Festival, the disciples immediately set off for the county school. Li Zisheng suddenly said this incompatible words, and the three old ladies didn't understand, but Cheng Zhongliang laughed again, and he was very relieved.
