Chapter 111: Awesome, My Traverser
Although Shunyo was not very willing to come to this kind of place where he had to eat or drink, he had to follow Lin Lan. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info compared to Yangzhou's house school, this Jinling Palace can be described as magnificent.
The design of the front temple and the harem makes reading seem to be a superior thing. Indeed, Lin Lan also saw a hint of pride on the faces of every student who wore school uniforms and entered and exited the school palace.
The wall of Confucius Temple, located on the bank of the Qinhuai River, two yellow dragons open their teeth and dance their claws, and the momentum is soaring. Shun looked at the two big dragons, his eyes lit up, this exquisite stone wall, naturally not seen in Yangzhou City.
The pan pond in front of the temple is transformed from a section of the river, and it is still extremely rare to use the river as a pan pond. There is Kuiguang Pavilion in the east on both sides, and there is Juxing Pavilion in the west, symbolizing the prosperity of the literary style.
Some students and Jinling talents chanted poems in the pavilion on the side, or discussed articles, such a learning atmosphere, if placed in the previous life, is a learning atmosphere only in key high schools.
Stone pillars are erected on the east and west sides of the square in front of the temple, and the book "The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs has dismounted here" to show the reverence for the Confucian saint. In fact, no one dares to ride a horse and ride a sedan chair here, and they generally get off the horse and get off the sedan chair consciously at the Panchi place.
In front of the temple gate, there is a cypress archway of "the center of the world", and behind the archway is the "Lingxing Gate", which is the archway of Zhangyu Gaoshi. This kind of background is probably only available in Nanyong. There is a peony brick carved relief carved between the three doors, and the column head has a cloud carving, and the shape is a Chinese table.
In the early spring, the school palace is about to open, and there is an endless stream of students worshipping the master in the Temple of Literature. Rites, as an important core of Confucius's ruling thoughts, are naturally deep-rooted in the Dajing Dynasty. Don't be rude. Seeing the pious appearance of the students, Lin Lan also smiled, this "imported" Confucian thought seems to be very effective.
The reason why Lin Lan wanted to see this Confucian Temple was not to pay homage to the sages, but to see what was going on with this "imported" Confucius master.
In Lin Lan's mind, when Confucius is mentioned, he thinks of the Spring and Autumn Period, followed by the commendations for Confucius in all dynasties. Some dynasties have some difficulty reading the name in front of Confucius in one breath, but none of them say that Confucius is an immortal from heaven.
However, in the Dajing Dynasty, Confucius meowed as an immortal. This made Lin Lan a little unbelievable, and she really wanted to explore how this Confucius suddenly fell from the sky. This is a question worth thinking about, Lin Lan has read the history books before the Dajing Dynasty, and there is no history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period at all, so there is no Zhongni as a character, but in Confucianism, he found the figure of Confucius - that is Wensheng, the god in the sky......
Lin Lan has also been to the Confucius Temple in Nanjing, which is roughly the same as here, and the layout is extremely similar. Behind it is the first school palace in Jinling.
Shunyo followed behind Lin Lan's ass with some reluctance, and said, "Young master, a few pieces of mung bean cake can't fill your stomach, why don't we go eat something first?" ”
"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat!"
"And drink!"
Lin Lan twisted Shun Yu's fat face, and said, "Look at the fat one who feeds you, why don't you just grow meat?" ”
Shunyo muttered, looking like a dog.
Lin Lan walked into the Wencheng Palace, the giant statue of Confucius stood majestically in the hall, and many students of the school palace wore uniform clothes and kowtowed.
Lin Lan went around, and felt that there was nothing special, that is, this Confucius held "Spring and Autumn" in his hand, a large pen, and stepped on auspicious clouds, which looked more sacred than the stone statue in front of him with his hands in the square. If you hold that big pen above your head, the shape is simply the Statue of Liberty.
The seventy-two sages of Confucius were even deified into seventy-two Wenqu stars, like a bunch of arhats, with different shapes and holding all kinds of ritual and music instruments, and it is difficult for the people who introduced them to imagine it in the first place.
"This girl, who is so talented, making up such a big lie, aren't you afraid that Confucius will have knowledge and come to destroy him?" Lin Lan scolded with a smile.
"This son, the old man has seen you wandering around this Wencheng Hall for a long time, I don't know what you are looking for?"
Lin Lan saw that it should be a temple blessing here, bowed his hand, and said, "It's nothing." Let's take a look at whether there are any traces left by the Confucian saint in this temple of literature. ”
"That boy is in the wrong place. This Wencheng hall is the people of later generations to feel the grace of the saint, and stand with admiration, in the temple of Confucius in Jinling, the legend has something to do with the master, it may be the sage tablet, but the book written in the sky, no one can know its meaning, can only look at, but can not understand the words of the sage. ”
"Oh?" Lin Lan didn't expect such things to exist, and after thanking him repeatedly, he hurriedly pulled Shun and left. Because the smooth eyes stared directly at the dazzling offerings on the table, it was difficult to guarantee that he would do something embarrassing if he didn't drag them away.
Lin Lan took a turn in the Wencheng Hall and re-exited the Lingxing Gate.
There are respectful gates on the east and west sides of this, and the middle is the Dacheng gate, also known as the halberd gate.
Every Shuo, Wang, pilgrimage and spring and autumn festivals, the county officials, teachings, and instructors enter from the Dacheng Gate, and the scholars go to the door to worship Kong.
The lower step is Danqi, which is the place of the sage monument. Under the shade of the tall pines and cypresses on both sides, there are many words engraved on the weather-beaten stone stele.
"Young master, what's painted on this?"
Lin Lan muttered, "Xiao Seal? He didn't expect that someone in the Dajing Dynasty would be able to write a small seal. Lin Lan has learned some ancient Chinese characters, and he still recognizes the general characters. However, the evolution of the writing of the Dajing Dynasty, all dynasties, there is no such thing as seal script, as if it was born to write regular script and traditional Chinese characters.
……
When you see these words, you can understand its meaning, then congratulations, there is an old man from the Ming Dynasty. I am a Jinshi in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Hong Wende, I didn't expect that the yin and yang made a mistake and came to a world without Confucianism.
You must be curious, why is there no Qin and Han kingdoms in this world, and there are no Tang, Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties? I'm also curious, but I created the Confucian Sage, and this is probably my greatest contribution to the world.
I wish you so far, my junior, I really hope that one day, I can return to Daming. By the way, my little seal is well written.
……
This inscription is naturally not so straightforward, but when translated, it probably means so.
Lin Lan gasped, he didn't expect that before him, there were even traversers who crossed over from the Ming Dynasty, which would explain why in this world, why Confucius is just a legend, and the imperial examination has been a baguwen from the beginning.
Lin Lan should be glad that this ancestor did not become a copyist and collected all the poems of the Tang and Song dynasties, and he may be keen on his career and just want to be a Confucian preacher.
Lin Lan looked at the seal inscription at the end of the stele again.
"Tempo? Which dynasty and generation is this? ”
"Tianbao is the name of the Pingzong of the Guang Dynasty, and it is more than 2,000 years ago." The old man was obviously so proficient in historiography that he could quickly react it in his mind when he heard the name of the era.
"More than 2,000 years?" Lin Lan pinched his fingers and calculated this, it is very likely that the Confucius of feelings was stillborn because of the traverser......
The old man walked slowly, squinted his eyes, and looked at Lin Lan, "Why do you think of the era name Tianbao when you look at this sage tablet?" He was very curious, although the sage monument has an extraordinary origin, but after so many years, no one knows the words on it, and it has long been ignored.
"Uh...... This casual remark, the old gentleman should not be surprised. ”
The old man stroked his white beard and said, "This monument, no one can solve it, it's really a pity." ”
Lin Lan could only laugh, if someone was released, it was estimated that it would shock the entire Dajing Dynasty and shake the faith of all scholars.
When things were figured out, Lin Lan was also relieved. It is estimated that two thousand years ago, this Ming person with some cultural knowledge may also be an old god, educating the people, just like spreading a religion, and promoting Confucianism.
It is only religion and belief that are more acceptable than the so-called academic schools. It is also because of this that the Wensheng gods of the Dajing Dynasty are also constantly incense, and there are many people who worship them.
Seeing that Lin Lan was stunned, the old man continued to ask, "What's wrong?" ”
"Oh, I love it here."
The old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "The old man also likes this pure land the most. By the way, are you a student of the Academy? ”
"Yes, yes."
"What do you mean by arguing? Yes, yes, no, no, where did so much come from. ”
Lin Lan said with a smile: "The juniors are about to enter the school palace, so it can only be said to be." ”
"What's your name? Where? ”
"Late-born Lin Lan, a Gusu person."
The old man raised his eyebrows and said a little staggeringly: "Amazing! ”
"Huh?" Lin Lan didn't know what the old man was referring to.
The old man took out a small bronze medal and said, "Coming over with this bronze medal tomorrow should save a lot of energy." ”
"You are ......"
The old man squinted his eyes and smiled: "I'll know when the time comes." ”
