Wang Yisun said loudly at that time: "Okay, I didn't expect you to not only make a poem in a pillar of incense, but also the artistic conception and language of this poem have reached a very high level!" The official underestimated you a little before, and this interpretation is even more sophisticated! However, the next question is to test the scriptures. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info you listen well, the sage Mr. Hengqu has a saying, for the heaven and earth, for the people, for the saints to continue learning, for the eternal peace. The last two sentences are written on the gate of the Guozijian, you must have seen it, please tell me your understanding of this famous saying! ”

When Li Xiang heard it, he almost became happy, but fortunately, this Wang Yisun didn't know that many famous people in later generations had explained these four famous sayings, and they had also been mentioned in high school and college courses, and he still remembered some. Borrowing the explanations of the four sentences of Hengqu by later generations, presumably they will not jump out and blame themselves, right? Li Xiang said in his heart.

So, Li Xiang stood with his hands in his hands, and after a little thought, he replied: "To set up a heart for heaven and earth is to enable people to have the heart of a benevolent person who loves and helps all people, and the heart of a saint who is a great duke. In fact, the heart of compassion is the heart of not tolerating others, that is, Confucius Sheng's self-desire, do not do to others, that is, the starting point of benevolence. The matter of a scholar should not be to seek benevolence in the knowledge of benevolence, good benevolence and evil are not benevolent, but to be able to do this is to establish a heart for heaven and earth. ”

Second, the idea of establishing a life for the people is directly derived from Mencius's idea of establishing a life. Mencius. There are clouds in the heart, and those who do their best know their nature. If you know its nature, you will know the sky. Keep its heart and nurture its nature, so everything is also good. Life expectancy is the same, self-cultivation is in order to take care of it, so it is also life-threatening. Through self-cultivation and teaching, if one can finally achieve such a state, that is, no matter how long or short a person's life expectancy is, he can maintain his own sexual and physical integrity, then this individual can be said to have settled down.

The third is to follow the sage, the study of the Confucian sage, from the two Han Dynasty and below, and the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and the Sui and Tang dynasties, for thousands of years, has not been able to continue the pre-Qin Confucian lineage. Neither the light of life nor the wisdom of philosophy can be revealed. It was not until the Great Song Dynasty that the metaphysical wisdom of pre-Qin Confucianism was resurrected, so that the study of the way of heaven and life, and the teaching of inner sage and virtue, were re-revealed to the world. The leadership of thought has been taken back from the hands of the Buddha, and the status of Confucius has naturally been re-established. ”

"The fourth is to open the peace of all generations, Confucianism is the essence of the inner sage, and the function of the outer king. The great function is to open a peaceful and prosperous world. And not just for a while, but for thousands of years to open peace. This sentence means that we will create a society of fraternity, peace, prosperity, civilization and prosperity for future generations. To sum up, the first sentence is the body, and the last three sentences are used; The first three sentences are the inner saints, and the last sentences are the outer kings. ”

Li Xiang actually memorized what he learned in high school and college, although some of the words of later generations would make people at this time sound a little inexplicable, such as civilization and wealth, but he only knew this.

What I didn't expect was that Wang Yisun stood on the spot, as if he was recalling what Li Xiang had just said, and after a while, Wang Yisun slapped the table and said loudly: "Wonderful, wonderful!" Young man, I am very satisfied with your answer! What a great society of fraternity, peace, prosperity, civilization, and prosperity, you disciple and official will accept it! ”

When Li Xiang and Li Kang's father and son heard this, they were all happy in their hearts.

At this time, Wang Yisun smiled and said: "Three days later, it will be the annual admission day of Guozi School, and you must come here again before the hour to participate in the admission ceremony!" ”

Li Kang bowed his hand and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang!" At that time, the dog will enter the country, and I hope that the adults will cultivate more! ”

Wang Yisun stroked his beard and smiled: "Lord Li, don't worry! Not to mention that there is a recommendation from that person, even if there is none, with Ling Gongzi's intelligence and erudition, this official must cultivate him! Okay, it's inconvenient to leave you to talk today, this official still has official business to do, so you can go back first! Don't forget to come back in 3 days! ”

Li Kang and his son hurriedly saluted and said goodbye, and Wang Yisun also personally sent the father and son to the gate.

On the way back, Li Kang also asked with surprise: "Xiang'er, my father remembers that you were not outstanding in your studies before, why did you behave so perfectly in front of Lord Wang today?" Don't talk about the explanation of that famous saying, let's just say that lime chanting, I believe that many famous artists are difficult to do it in the time of a pillar of incense, how did you do it? ”

Li Xiang smiled: "Father, have you forgotten?" The child has been ordered by the gods, which is equivalent to enlightenment! It's just a piece of cake, and you'll just get used to it later! ”

When they arrived at the official kiln yamen of the Xiu Nei Division, the father and son continued to find skilled craftsmen and stewards to jointly formulate the standards and specifications of the official kiln, which was a huge project that could not be completed in a few months.

Soon the three days passed, and the time had come for Guozi to enroll. This is a big day, Li Xiang brought his newly recruited little girl Xiu'e to prepare to attend the entrance ceremony.

Xiao Yahuan dressed up in disguise and turned into a little scholar in Tsing Yi, which is also a matter of no way, because which of the students who entered Guozi School did not bring a scholar? Li Xiang didn't have a scholar, so he had to let Xiao Yahuan act as a child.

Li Xiang was dressed in a moon-white scholar's robe, a Dongpo scarf, with a light smile on his face, and a gentle demeanor, full of poetry and books. After getting up, the little scholar Xiu'e had already prepared everything and waited beside her, ate a bowl of ramen, and greeted her father, and the master and servant hurried out of the house.

Although it was early in the morning, the sound of shouting and selling on the street had been undulating, and Li Xiang had no intention of enjoying the scenery, so he just hurried away with the scholar, and saw the shadow of the country eunuch in sight, so he slowed down.

At this time, a lot of people had gathered outside the Guozi Prison, except for the servants in Tsing Yi and small hats, the rest were all people dressed as scholars, and they all looked like new prisoners this year.

After staying for a while, a man in a red official robe came out, shouted loudly at the crowd to stand up, and then took the roster and entered the door one by one.

Guozi is good at learning, not only to eat and live, but also to be admitted to school and become a prisoner, everything is all-inclusive. Of course, many inmates only received prison plates, did not live in the school building, and some even did not come to attend classes at all, which is similar to the university campus in later generations.

Guozi priest Zhou Xiaoqi and doctor Wang Yisun spoke successively, which is nothing more than the great reason for everyone to concentrate on learning, strive to be admitted to the Jinshi, and become the pillars of the country. Then Dr. Wang Yisun read out the roster and ordered the supervisors to take the new inmates away.

The inmates are divided into three types: the outer house, the inner house, and the upper house, and the new students are all outside the house, and the students who pass the test are promoted to the inner house students after admission. After two years of study, you can take the public examination and become a senior student.

Among them, the treatment of the upper house is the best, ten people fast, living alone in one room, enjoying the food of other fasting, that is, the small stove, which is completely the treatment of officials. Or if there is a great favor, you can choose the best officials.

One courtyard is a house, which is surrounded on three sides by large houses, which are divided into many living rooms for outsiders. I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, Li Xiang was housed in the innermost room.

Picked a bed casually, threw down the package, and Li Xiang looked at the dormitory. As for miscellaneous tasks such as collecting clothes and tidying up the bed, the school boy is responsible for it. However, Li Xiang didn't plan to live here, because he still had a lot of things to do, so he just occupied a bed. If you can take the autumn exam, and if you take the Jinshi exam after the year, you can even graduate, because if you win the Jinshi, you will be assigned a job, and it is impossible to study in Guozijian anymore.
