Chapter 147: Longing for Seven Words to Learn Rhyme

Wu Weiye is still very interested in how Hua Xue compiled the "Book of Agriculture".

He has been in the Hanlin Academy for six years, and he has also seen how others compile books, which one is not meditative and careful consideration? How can Hua Xue write like this?

Moreover, Hua Xue asked him to sort out the materials in the bibliography before, so he roughly scanned the materials, except for the manuscript itself, which is the 100,000-word manuscript, those reference materials are the most tomes. Some of them are related to the exposition works of the predecessors, and more are the transcription of historical materials, township chronicles, etc., which record the hydrology and water conservancy situation.

When a normal person encounters a problem and checks the information, if there is no authoritative encyclopedia, they usually have to read multiple materials and compare them with each other in order to solve the problem.

But when Hua Xue was compiling, she never checked the information and found the content she needed, but directly took it and copied it on a certain page. This makes Wu Weiye especially incomprehensible.

If you don't understand, you ask: "Mr. Hua, I see that you never need to look through it, just take the book over and turn the pages, and you can directly turn to the content you need to use, how did you do this?" ”

Hua Xue was stunned, this problem is really hard to explain! Hua Xue can't say that the system told him which book and which page of the content he wants to copy, right?

Looking down, Hua Xue was glad, fortunately, Wu Weiye asked this question early, and he still wrote less, and this question was easy to answer: "It's not." It's just that I've read a few books I've used so far, and I'm just going to open them to verify my memory and prevent mistakes. ”

Wu Weiye nodded, this makes sense, and only in this way does it make sense.

After satisfying his curiosity, Wu Weiye felt that he was also Hua Xue's deputy in compiling books, and he couldn't do nothing, so he asked again: "Mr. Hua has a good memory." I don't know what I should do next? ”

Hua Xue was still thinking in her heart, would she have to look through a few books to find information to supplement in the future? Listening to Wu Weiye's question, his eyes lit up: "Lord Wu has won the award." Who doesn't know that Lord Wu, you are famous for your good memory? Speaking of which, there is indeed something that needs the help of Lord Wu. I haven't read some of the information here, so I don't know much about it. It also needs to be read carefully by Lord Wu to have an impression of its general content. At that time, if I need any kind of information, I will go directly to you, Mr. Wu, and ask where there is relevant or similar content. Immediately, Hua Xue pointed to a part of the bibliography that Wu Weiye had sorted out and told Wu Weiye what he needed to read.

"Huh? Doesn't Mr. Hua need to read all the information? Will it cause omissions? ”

"I've read all the treatise books in it. Important historical records are also well known. What I point out to Master Wu are some regional hydrological details or a lot of repetition. Master Wu can also use this to verify whether there are any recorded examples, which contradict the content of my compilation. ”

Wu Weiye thought about it, Hua Xue was able to discover the cause of the formation of rain and predict the outbreak of natural disasters, and his knowledge was unimaginable. I don't know how much content related to astronomy, geography, hydrology, and water conservancy has been studied. Chen Zilong thought that he had read the materials sent by Chen Zilong, but with his talent, he was far from Hua Xue's knowledge. From this, it can be roughly judged how many kinds of books Hua Xue has studied more than him.

Wu Weiye was impressed in his heart and gladly agreed to Hua Xue's request. For him, studying is not a hard job, it is just a daily routine.

Hua Xue and Wu Weiye worked hard to compile the book, and Chen Liu and Chen Liu in Liyuan were not idle.

Since Dong Bai left, the head of the class went to the bedroom arranged for Dong's mother Bai to accompany his girlfriend.

Leaving Chen Yuan and Liu Ruis and Xiaoyahuan to make progress together.

Chen Yuan can read the opera lyrics and songs, and can read the legends of the script, so the basic literacy problem naturally does not need to be further studyed, and the three levels of "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text" have already passed.

But that's about it.

Her ability to read and remember is outstanding, after all, she has been trained by singing lyrics for many years, but her creative ability is far behind.

Whether it's a poem or an article, it is possible to write a letter in the vernacular, but if it rhymes or something, you can only rely on quotations.

Liu Ru asked Chen Yuan about the goals and directions of his next learning, and usually according to the different purposes, the content of the next learning is also different.

In order to take the imperial examination, it is natural to study the scriptures, the four books and the five classics are compulsory courses, and Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming are limited.

If you want to learn poetry and prose, you should naturally learn rhyme. At this time, Li Yu had just passed the children's examination for two years, and he was still studying hard for the township examination in the year after tomorrow. continent against the sky". At this time, the rhyme textbook used by people was "Xunmeng Pun Sentences" written by Si Shouqian: "The sky turns to the north, and the sun rises to the east." The east wind is faint, and the dawn is cloudy".

If you want to learn calligraphy, there is Wang Xizhi's "On Books" and Su Dongpo's "On Books", all of which are famous articles. To learn painting, there is also Gu Kaizhi's "On Painting", which is also a proper meaning.

I don't learn any of these, it's good to learn history, and although I can't remember it, it's easy to find it. Books such as "Warring States Policy" and "Zizhi Tongjian", she believes that Hua Xue can definitely get it.

If Chen Yuan has other preferences, such as piano and chess, Liu Ru said that she is not necessarily stronger than Chen Yuan, and it is good to say that chess should be Chen Yuan's professional scope.

As for the "Biography of the Daughters" and "The Female Commandments" and the like that of the normal high-ranking families who teach their daughters, Liu Ru herself disdains them. What's more, she looked at the relationship between Hua Xue and Chen Yuan, and felt that in comparison, it might be more feasible to let Hua Xue make up a "Biography of the Heroes" and "Male Commandments" by herself.

Chen Yuan was originally most interested in history, which was a hobby cultivated by singing and reading scripts all year round. But she felt that Liu Ru obviously couldn't compare with Hua Xue in terms of the level of history, and this part still made Hua Xue more reliable to teach her.

Hua Xue originally told her that the main direction of learning from Liu Rushi was to write articles, but in the past few days, Dong Bai and then Liu Rushi have all shown off their poetry skills in front of her, which made Chen Yuan very envious.

Chen Yuan thinks that there are few words in poetry and many words in articles, and if you want to learn to write articles, you should start with basic poetry writing. So he told Liu Ru about his choice.

Of course, Liu Ru didn't know that she would have "learning to write poetry is the basis for learning to write articles", this strange idea of relying on the number of words to infer the difficulty of creation, and gladly agreed.

"Xunmeng Sentences" has a total of 2,700 words, Liu Ru is extremely familiar and fluent, and there is no need for Chen Yuan to go back to Taohua'an to look for it, he directly picks up the pen and writes silently, and asks Chen Yuan to copy according to what she wrote.

It's time to start teaching.
