Chapter 198: Disciples Gather
Taiping production brings not only the joy of Wufu, but also the sexual life of Wuqing.
Women are made of water, but without rain and dew, they will still dry up, so there is no doubt that men are the rain and dew, that day. If it doesn't rain, the sea will be dry.
Wu Qing, the new servant of the Ministry of Officials, also welcomed visitors one by one.
The next afternoon.
The eldest disciple Li Fengxiao came and brought donkey meat from Weizhou, for donkey meat, Wuqing is well aware of its deliciousness, the so-called "dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat in the ground". Moreover, the nutritional value of donkey meat is higher than that of beef and pork, so when I saw Li Fengxiao's half cart of donkey meat, I was still very happy.
Wu Qing ordered people to cut the donkey meat into shreds, then pass it through a piece of oil, then add condiments to dry, and distribute it to each courtyard.
Li Fengxiao has been teaching for many years, and his literary and artistic cells have also proliferated a lot, so when he was with Wu Qing, he discussed music and dance. Wuqing combined with Datang, added his own understanding, and gave Li Fengxiao a good explanation.
"Teacher, in your mind, what kind of performance should music and dance be?" Lee Bong-hyo asked.
The court music of the Tang Dynasty was divided into Yan music and Yale. Yan music can also be called banquet, is a song and dance for entertainment and appreciation during the banquet, originated from the harem music of the Zhou Dynasty, that is, "music in the room". In the Tang Dynasty, there has been a great change, blending Hu Feng and carrying out bold transformation, making it a song and dance of drinking and feasting since the Sui and Tang dynasties, and is very popular with the royal family and scholars. But this still did not break through the category of scholars, it only served the royal family and scholars. Over time, there is not much new in mind.
Wu Qing paused and said, "Art." If you don't want to get promoted and make a fortune, you will go around the north, south and east of the Tang Dynasty, maybe you will definitely create excellent works. Datang has a vast territory and vast resources. The folk customs are very different, and the folk have inexhaustible resources. When you put rap together, it's already a big step forward. But this is not enough, such as the mountain climbing tune in the northern grassland, the Xintianyou in the Shuozhou area of Yanzhou, and the flower tune in the Didao River Huang area. The Yangtze River on both sides of the Yangtze River. Wu Yue's soft language, such as Yizhou Lingnan and so on, these are folk arts, although they are not in the court, they can come from life, and the things that come from life are the most vigorous. ”
Li Fengxiao did not make a decision, after all, this is a big event, and he finally got an official status. How can you give up, but Wu Qing said. He was extremely longing. So he said: "The teacher's words make the students yearn for it very much, but now the student's wife and children are still young, please don't blame the teacher." ”
Wu Qing smiled and said: "Being a teacher is just a way to find the source of creation, you don't have to apologize, and finding inspiration for creation is not just going to the countryside, such as women." ”
"Women?" Li Fengxiao was surprised, and then remembered the teacher's woman, it seems that there are a lot, no wonder the teacher can create so many excellent works, it turns out that the inspiration comes from women.
What Wu Qing didn't know was that Li Fengxiao took a concubine very quickly after he went back, and later, the higher the official position, he also had a lot of women, but he always had less Wu Qing, because he thought that this was the way to respect the teacher and should not be on the same level as the teacher.
At this time, a servant announced that Wang Zhong and Xiao Song had arrived. Wu Qing was overjoyed, let them go to the study.
Xiao Song was originally going to participate in last year's Spring Festival, but he was seriously ill before the Spring Festival and did not participate, so he could only put it this year, and happened to meet Wu Qing as a servant of the Ministry of Officials, I have to say that this is Xiao Song's luck. Wang Zhong is now a county magistrate in Hongnong County, Yuzhou, one came to visit Wuqing, and the other also went to the door.
After the two of them saluted, they sat down. Wang Zhong brought the native products of Yuzhou, and Xiao Song brought an article about heaven and earth.
Wu Qing didn't even look at the local products, so he ordered someone to take it down, but picked up the article "On Heaven and Earth", which should be regarded as Xiao Song's projection. The imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty was not vague, and before the imperial examination, you could vote for your proud work to the officials of the ministry, or to the officials and foreign officials, of course, if you are confident, you can vote for the prime minister. This is called pitching.
Wu Qing held the heavy paper in his hand, and looked at it from the first sentence, "The beginning of the world is said to be Pangu opening the heavens and opening the earth, is this true?" Those who speak clearly float, those who are turbid sink, and this heaven and earth begin to divide"
After reading it, Wu Qing couldn't help but sigh that if Xiao Song could continue to study, then he would definitely make a difference in philosophy. This treatise on heaven and earth, simply put, is the suspicion that the gods opened the heavens and the earth, believing that there must be a certain reason for the formation of heaven and earth, but this reason cannot be discovered for the time being. Although the article is immature, it has been deeply influenced by science and belongs to a simple materialist worldview.
Wu Qing smiled and said: "Although Xiao Song is immature in this article, it is not without merit, but you have not grasped the core, the foundation of science lies in a word of reason, which is to expound the principle of all things and the principle of spirit, I hope you can be the first in one fell swoop this time and create more brilliance for my science!" ”
In the spring of last year, Qingxin Academy was once again noticed by the world with the good results of ten jinshi, although it was not as good as the first year, but there is no doubt that Qingxin Academy has surpassed the four schools of Guozi Jian Taixue and the official schools of various states. If it weren't for Wu Qing's transfer to the court, otherwise there would have been an explosion of greater energy.
"Students remember!" Xiao Song said humbly.
Wu Qing regretted his second disciple Wu Xin, he was expecting Wu Xin to send him Japanese gold and beautiful girls, but since leaving, except for bringing back a letter, there has been no news. Although he did not have a good impression of the Japanese, Wu Qing's trade in Japan was mostly taken care of by Wu Xin, and he took root firmly. So at this time, several disciples gathered, and he missed it very much.
It didn't take long for Zhang Shuo to arrive, and Zhang Shuo was carrying a jar of mash.
"The students have seen the teacher, and I wish the teacher good luck and harmony in the house. This is the mud brewed by the hands of the student's old mother, I hope the teacher will taste it. ”
Zhang Shuo put the mash on the table.
Wu Qing smiled and said, "Even if it is brewed by a loving mother, you must taste it as a teacher." Then he instructed his servant to boil the mash for himself while he was feasting, and put it on the dates.
For Zhang Shuo, Wuqing is unattainable, if he hadn't entered the mansion to study and served Wuqing as a disciple, I'm afraid that with Zhang Shuo's identity, he would not have been able to see Wuqing. Therefore, Zhang Shuo decided to study with Wuqing for a few years before participating in the imperial examination. Wu Qing couldn't help but be very happy when he saw that Zhang Shuo had such perseverance.
In the following years, Zhang Shuo became a staff member of Wuqing until after the Wuzhou Revolution.
Not long after, a servant announced: "Ah Lang, there is a man outside the mansion who calls himself Yao Yuanchong who asks to see him. ”
Wu Qing was stunned for a moment, thinking that he really didn't know him, but he still said, "Bring it." ”
After a while, I saw a young man with a heroic appearance and a majestic figure walking in, and seeing that there were so many people in the room, he was stunned for a moment, and then he calmed down, walked firmly, bowed to Wuqing in the first seat, and bowed: "Student Shaanzhou Yao Yuan worships the teacher." ”
Wu Qing smiled: "Please take a seat!" (To be continued......)
