As soon as Huai Sleeve's words fell, Bao Lan took it and said with a light smile: "The concubine is lonely and unheard, I have only heard that the women in the boudoir teach the four books of the women, but I have never heard of teaching drama, will this be lost?" ”

Chang Ning, who was standing next to him, heard this, raised his eyebrows and glanced at Baolan, and when he looked around, he saw the hot and straight crescent moon half leaning on Xiaozhuang's side opposite, and floated a white eye towards Baolan.

Xiaozhuang slowly picked up the teacup and smiled silently, and glanced at Kangxi intentionally or unintentionally.

Kangxi flipped through the excerpts in his hand, heard Baolan's sentence, and said in a gentle voice: "Even the drama has wonderful sentences, and this "Peony Pavilion" and the other three "Peach Blossom Fan", "Palace of Eternal Life" and "The Story of the West Chamber" are all famous songs, and there is no lack of wonderful rhetoric in the lyrics, you might as well read it." ”

Xiaozhuang nodded slightly, and said approvingly: "What the emperor said is very much, if you increase your knowledge, even if you pay attention to every word, it is all learning, just take it I heard the white-faced little student in the last paragraph of the drama singing, 'Your Majesty can take the world immediately, can immediately rule the world?' If the emperor heard this, he would have some thoughts. ”

Kangxi nodded again and again: "What the ancestor said is very true, this sentence is really thought-provoking. Speaking of which, Zhang Tingyu had prepared an excerpt for me the day before yesterday, and I was trying to do something! ”

"Oh? What does the emperor think? Xiaozhuang was quite interested in hearing this.

Kangxi said with a smile: "At the moment, it is still in the planning, the grandson will sell a good job first, and then tell the ancestor after thinking about it carefully." ”

The crescent moon couldn't help but ask: "I've listened to it for a long time, you all say that you read, govern the country, these words, but I just listened to the play, but I remember the last sentence of the last poem clearly, it is, 'Liu Xiang didn't read', how do you interpret this?" ”

Before others could react, Baolan wanted to fight for some opportunities for herself to show her face, but it happened that she remembered the last four sentences of the play clearly, and she liked the last sentence the most in her heart, but she could excuse herself, so she secretly memorized it silently in her heart.

Coincidentally, at this time, the crescent moon mentioned this stubble, and Baolan blurted out: "I remember that poem, and I will read it to you. King Yue pointed to himself and laughed on the high platform, Liu Xiang didn't study. ’”

Chang Ning clapped his hands again and again and laughed after hearing this: "Lan Guiren has a good memory!" ”

Kangxi and Su Malagu couldn't help but hide their lips and smile, but when they heard the crescent moon's question, they frowned slightly.

The crescent moon asked suspiciously: "Who is this Liu Xiang who doesn't study?" Why is he so famous even if he doesn't study? ”

When Chang Ning heard the crescent moon's question, he leaned back and laughed even more, and Kangxi couldn't help but smile, wiping the tears from laughter in his eyes with his sleeves.

Xiaozhuang frowned slightly and said: "I don't think this is in a poem, you just laugh, how to solve this poem, who is the solution to it?" ”

Kangxi smiled slightly and pointed at Baolan and said, "Since you can memorize it, you can explain it." ”

When Baolan heard Kangxi ask her to explain this poem, she regretted that she was reckless just now, and her face was embarrassed: "The concubine doesn't know who the princess of the crescent moon asked just now, Liu Xiang and Liu Gongzi." ”

As soon as she said this, Kangxi and Chang Ning laughed again, and Su Malagu couldn't help but hide her mouth and smile lightly, Xiaozhuang became more and more inexplicable, only although Huai Sleeve was calm, she couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Uncle Six, tell me quickly, what does this poem mean? What are you laughing at? The crescent moon couldn't hold back and asked Chang Ning.

Chang Ning glanced at the sleeve that was standing quietly behind Xiaozhuang, and said with a slight smile: "Look, your question has annoyed your master, so don't hurry up and ask your master." ”

When the crescent moon turned her face to look at her sleeves, she changed her face to a bright smile, and said coquettishly: "Master, they are all laughing, what do you mean by telling me?" ”

Huai Sleeve smiled lightly and said: "You are mistaken, the 'Liu Xiang' in this poem originally did not refer to one person, but to Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, who were jointly anti-Qin at that time. ”

At this time, everyone else in the room stopped laughing and quietly listened to Huai Sleeve explain the poem. Baolan, who had spoken rashly just now, heard Huai Sleeve's words, and her face was hot and hot with shame, and she regretted her reckless behavior just now.

Crescent Moon continued to ask: "Then why do you say that Liu Xiang doesn't study?" Does Liu Xiang really not like to read? ”

Huai Sleeve heard the crescent moon and replied with a faint smile: "This poem was originally a poem written by Zhang Jie in the late Tang Dynasty called "Book Burning Pit", and the original poem is like this: Bamboo silk smoke eliminates the emperor's industry, and the Guanhe River locks the ancestral dragon residence. The ashes of the pit were not cold, and Liu Xiang did not study. If you want to fully understand the meaning of a poem, you can't just take out a sentence and read it, you must look at the whole poem, and reflect the customs of the time, so that you can understand the meaning of the poet at that time. ”

When Kangxi and Xiaozhuang heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads again and again.

The crescent moon read the original poem according to the sleeve in her arms, tilted her head and thought for a moment and said: "I think this original poem has more charm than the one in this drama, what does the original poem mean?" ”

Huai Sleeve nodded happily and praised: "You can hear that the charm of the original text is in the poem, the original meaning of this poem is to say that the famous Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism."

After Qin Shi Huang unified the world, he intended to pass on the country to all generations, and was afraid that the Confucian scholars at that time would 'not learn from the present and learn from the past' and 'the Tao of the past harmed the present', so he first burned many books, and then buried many Confucian students.

After the smoke of book burning was gone, the dream of the eternal emperor also turned into an ethereal phantom, and the powerful and dangerous Hangu Pass could not lock the ancestral dragon golden nest of Qin Shi Huang.

Only more than ten years have passed, and the ashes have not yet cooled, and the world is in chaos, and the rebellious Liu Bang and Xiang Yu are both people who 'don't study'. ”

Kangxi nodded again and again when he heard this, with a light smile of appreciation on his face, and said: "These words are very well explained, this poem is intended to satirize Qin Shi Huang's desire to continue the cause of the emperor by burning books and pit Confucianism, but it backfired. ”

The more Yueya listened, the more interested she became, and she couldn't help but urge: "Then who are Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, and they haven't studied?" You haven't answered my question yet. ”

Huai sleeve said with a smile: "The poem says that Liu Bang and Xiang Yu do not read, but in this history, these two people may not really not read, first say Xiang Yu, he and his uncle Xiang Liang read a lot of books when they were together, Xiang Liang has a high prestige in Wuzhong, the wise men and doctors are all out of him, and the local events are all hosted by him."

Xiang Liang took advantage of this condition to secretly use the art of war to train guests and his children, you think such a person, how could his important nephew be illiterate? Besides, Liu Bang, Liu Bang's younger brother Liu Jiao and several Confucians are classmates, if Liu Bang really doesn't study, how can he have such foresight? Later, he became Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.

As for Liu Bang's emphasis on merit and light on Confucianism, perhaps Liu Bang just felt that Confucianism was a scholar at that time, and he was far away and broad in his thoughts, but the people he relied on were all really talented and learned people, do you only look at Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Han Xin, which is not a scholar? ”
