Chapter Ninety-Six: Reading in the Downtown Area
In fact, an important reason why the achievements of Chinese literature in the Ming and Qing dynasties were much inferior to those of the previous dynasties was because of Baguwen!
Baguwen requires students to write essays within the scope of the Four Books and Five Classics with the thoughts and tones of sages, and are not allowed to express their own independent opinions, and even have a series of strict regulations on the format and number of words in the text, so that the thoughts of the world's scholars are imprisoned by this rigid and harmful style.

Who doesn't want to glorify the ancestors, temple high school?
As a result, these readers are all eager to study the eight-strand essay in order to be successful, and to memorize the good articles of those examples, where is there anyone to study their own article style?
Because of the eight shares of harm, but it is still too early to say, Li Gouyu does not have the strength to fight against the eight shares, this era, including the later generations of the Qing Dynasty, many people have put forward the eight shares of harm, which even attracted the attention of the emperor of the current dynasty, the later Qianlong Emperor convened the ministers to see if there is a better way to replace the eight shares, but after all, because of the inability to come up with a good way to form and finally died without a problem.
Existence is reasonable, and Li Gouyu, who came from later generations, can only use this method to comfort himself at present.
Shaking his head, ignoring these scattered thoughts for the time being, Li Gouyu drilled and polished the article, "One Hundred Articles of Ancient Writing", "Six Dynasties Literature", "Zhaoming Anthology", ...... These books were selected by the shopkeeper Qu for himself, and they all talked about the essence of writing articles, and some of them were also involved in the imperial examination.
Thinking of the time when the shopkeeper Qu was left, Li Gou left a wry smile, he hadn't been to his bookstore for a few days, I believe that this old man should be anxious to wait for himself, and he still has to go again when he makes up the time, and the time to snub him is indeed a little long.
Most of the ancient texts are obscure to read, in fact, the first seven sons, including their successors, are the same, their articles are condescending, the language is obscure, and many places sound unclear, but let you explain it, but it makes people feel like seeing an eight-clawed crab, and they don't know where to start.
The article that Li Gouyu wants is a kind of profound and good article with sincere emotions and both elegant and vulgar appreciation, neither the kind of Qin and Han dynasties that must be written before and after, and the stiff imitation of the Qi Dynasty, nor the Tang and Song factions' unTaoist and unwritten, and the whole text is to be blunt and old-fashioned interpretation.
The article is a way to express the author's state of mind and situation at that time, why do you have to add so much unnecessary mess? In fact, from the perspective of concept, Li Gouyu seems to be more inclined to the Chaling poetry school of the scholar Li Dongyang.
Li Dongyang's articles are temperamental, anti-simulation, advocating syllables and rhymes, which can be regarded as injecting a new wind into the literary world at that time, but after all, because this person's life circle is too narrow and his life experience is relatively scarce, and in the end, the poems also fall into clichΓ©s, most of them are describing pavilions or parting, otherwise they may really be able to lead the coquettish for a while.
In fact, think about the later generations of Mao Taizu is also, his articles are imaginative, if the pen is like divine help, and the life experience is also rich, he has traveled all over China, and has seen through the warmth and coldness of the world, so the words he writes about can also be breathtaking, but it can be said that no sentence is not a poem, and even vulgar words such as not farting are majestic in Taizu's poems, what can you say?
Men and husbands, the writing should be like this, from temperament, not informal.
The drill and grinding article was studied too deeply, and before I knew it, the sun had set, and Li Gou left a hammer on his already fainted head, took a deep breath, and got up to pack his things.
Out of the academy only feel refreshed, staying in the academy although the mood is peaceful, but there always seems to be an invisible confinement to restrain themselves, the academy of this era is actually like the college entrance examination sprint class in later generations, people always feel that they can't help but be nervous when they go in, and the breath they exhale feels salty.
The day after class in the academy is the time when the little people are busy, this is just in the evening, the vegetable market is full of people, very lively, at this time of the day, the people always have to come out to activities, or buy vegetables or come out to relax and join in the fun, anyway, it is crowded with people, lively and extraordinary.
Li Gouyu couldn't help but think of something, so he grabbed a copy of "Article Track" from the small book basket he was carrying, and paced to the vegetable market.
What do you do when you go to the wet market? Reading.
Reading is to have the bearing of not hearing things outside the window, when grasping the book, the eyes are in the heart, and the ears are best isolated from the outside world, so as to cultivate a student's attitude of concentrating on learning.
When I came to the vegetable market to find the noisiest place, next to it was a pork stall, Li Gouyu grabbed the book in his hand and read it softly.
"Oh, whose child is this, why are you still here to read?"
"At a young age, you can be like this, who wants the title of the gold list, blessed!"
"Behold, this boy will ...... in the future"
At the beginning, Li Gouyu could still hear what passers-by around him were saying, but later, his ears really seemed to be closed, babbling just felt that someone seemed to be talking next to him, but their words did not really affect the thinking in his brain, and he took out a brush and circled the book from time to time, as if at this time in this era, there was really only himself and the book in his hand.
It seems that after studying for such a long time, his energy is more concentrated than before, Li Gouyu can't help but rejoice, in the past, this was something he would never be able to do, studying in the city, really every student is Mao Taizu?
This book is written by Xie Fangde of the Song Dynasty, this book selects sixty-nine ancient articles to comment, many places analyze the meticulous, concise and concise, quite respected by later generations, and it was also adopted by the imperial court in this dynasty, and it was also quite involved in the imperial examination.
The writing is like flowing water, and the comments are sharp, in fact, it is not only used for scientific research, but also has a role in the formation and description of his own articles, so Li Gou is like a treasure, and he reads it very seriously.
"Little Friends ......"
"Little Friends ......"
The voice next to his ears became louder and louder, as if he was saying it in his ear, Li Gouyu finally broke free from the world in the book, looked up blankly, and it turned out that it was the shopkeeper who came to shout to him.
"The old man gave you this book of "Article Tracks" to read, but you have benefited a lot?"
Old man Qu said proudly, like a child showing off his beloved toys.
Li Gouyu's head was still immersed in the book and could not completely extricate himself, shaking his head as if it was difficult to return to this world, there is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book, roughly so.
"This is what Lao Tzu bought, bought." Li Gou said hatefully.
"Didn't the old man take less than half of your money as usual? It's a gift from the old man. "Old man Qu, a talented man, has now learned to cheat, and he said shamelessly.
Damn, I took my own money, and I was complacent about giving books to myself, how can there be a brazen person like you in the world? It's really no business! Li Gou glanced at him and didn't pay attention to it anymore, and he didn't know how long he had been reading the book, anyway, there were not many people in the grass market at this time, and it was estimated that there would be an hour to say less, so let's stop here today, thinking so much in his heart, Li Gouyu got up: "Why are you coming to me?" β
"The little old man stays in the store every day and is bored, today I was thinking about having nothing to do and come out to buy a chicken to stew and eat, but I happened to meet you here, to be honest, the old man is also trying to find you, it is better to meet by chance, it is better to hit the day than to choose a day, what, come to my house to have a drink with the old man? After drinking, the old man will let you write more articles if you don't sleep all night this time, your "Journey to the West" is very popular now, but you, the original author, are reluctant to show up, old man, my door has been broken several times by the visitors of this book! Today, the old man said that he wouldn't let you go so lightly! β
Shopkeeper Qu said with a look of resentment.
A few days ago, many of my readers came all the way to Yanggu County, many of them still eat and live in Yanggu, just waiting for the bookstore's "Journey to the West" to come out next time, Qu Shopkeeper is also looking for Li Gouyu everywhere, but I heard that Li Gouyu was taking the exam in the imperial examination shed of the county examination at that time, and he could still rush in to arrest people?
Patiently explained to the readers again and again, the threshold was kicked by the readers, and the old man Qu was really anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and now he caught Li Gouyu in this vegetable market, do you still want to be good? If you don't write a hundred and eighty times, how can you be worthy of the readers of your own book?
Li Gouyu wanted to shirk it, but unexpectedly, the old man directly threw away the white chicken and all kinds of food in his hand, and casually threw a piece of broken silver to the vegetable vendor next to him: "Help me send it to the Yanggu Antique Bookstore." After saying that, he pinched Li Gou's remaining arm and didn't let go, it was like a thief caught by a thief!
"Wait, let me carry the bookcase." Li Gou is still bitter, this little old man is still quite strong, and now he has fine skin and tender meat, and it hurts a little to be caught.
"Help me send this bookcase to the Antique Bookstore as well." Old man Qu threw some money at the peddler again. Want to run? The old man won't be fooled by you again today! It's really hairless and can't do things firmly, if you kid doesn't come to the bookstore once, I will throw you a share of dozens of taels of silver.
Who doesn't have to rush to my bookstore? You're good, it's stupid to read and read, it's been half a month, and you haven't come to my bookstore! This time the sky has eyes, and if I catch it, you don't want to run!
β¦β¦
Qu shopkeeper said that he wanted Li Gouyu to write here for a night today, in fact, this old man is also a knife mouth tofu heart, Li Gouyu pitifully begged for mercy a few words, this old man also relented, and asked Li Gouyu to repeatedly promise to come over once in the next three or two days, which made Gou Leftover dictate more than a dozen chapters of the plot of the rivers and lakes to save the emergency.
If it's too late, you'll have to break the night curfew.
Grabbing the dozens of taels of heavy silver handed over by the old man Qu, Li Gou was left with a smell of wine, and walked on the street strolling, it was dark early in winter, and it was going to be dark in the blink of an eye, and few people on the street were going to move around again, and the people of the yamen were going to put fences on the street for a while.
The night is very quiet, very dark, almost no sound at all, and it can cleanse the heart the most.
In a haze, Li Gouyu seemed to hear the woman's muttering voice, and the crying was not loud, but he was still sobbing softly, which made people feel sorry.
"Is it Miss Ziyun?"
A woman is in rags, trembling and walking down the street, and now the weather is still very cold, isn't it offended to go out in such a dress? The woman fell down the street with a bang, but the woman still gritted her teeth and got up strongly, but the corners of her mouth were still twitching.
I saw it once last time in Baihualou, this should be the Ziyun girl, right?
Li Gou is also a small embryo in his bones, and a woman with a mediocre appearance may not be able to remember, but Miss Ziyun, who is at the level of an immortal, of course she will never forget it.
It is said that since he crossed over to this Daming, there are two beauties who can shock his heart and liver at once, one is Li Lanxin, the daughter of his teacher, phew, what is that wrongdoer! Li Gou was left with hatred and quickly stopped...... And the other one is this Ziyun girl.
However, the beauty of Ziyun girl is different from Xin'er, in addition to being delicate, this person is not light or heavy, and it is the most memorable for men, and the wife is not as good as a concubine and a prostitute.
Li Gouyu hurriedly shook his head and threw out these messy thoughts, it was not a good thing to jump out like this in front of a beauty.
"Yes, is it the Li Gongzi of "Sauvignon Blanc"?"
The girl Ziyun smiled and said that she was laughing, but in fact, she was just a twitch at the corner of her mouth, this woman was in rags, and she was estimated to be cold and hungry at this time, and she was afraid that she would have no strength to laugh.
"Don't be polite." Li Gouyu hurriedly grabbed Miss Ziyun's arm and held her: "You are not in the Baihua Building, why did you end up here?" β
The ancients actually liked to be pretentious the most, especially in this era of men and women, the so-called help is just a hand to help, that person knows what it means to get up by himself, who expected Li Gou to really get up to help her.
Ziyun glanced at him with a little anger, this son was not as serious as in the poem.
"Baihualou?" These emotions flashed in her eyes, and Miss Ziyun laughed at herself, the son is afraid that he will only be a woman from a good family, and he is just a woman in the dust, how can he be so respected by the son? Saying that, Ziyun simply ignored these worldly defenses, and concentrated on telling his story: "I will never go back to Baihualou again, I got the son "Sauvignon Blanc" that day, I was very happy, and the slave family had nothing to repay." β
"That day was just a whim, don't mention it, can you tell me why you ended up here?"
Gou Yu said again: "The girl doesn't have to worry, the kid doesn't covet anything, but he can't bear the girl to fall here, can the girl tell the boy what is distressed in her heart?" You and I are friends because of poetry, but they are also confidants, your business, even if I can't help when you say it, at least you will feel more comfortable. β
