Chapter 292: A New Interpretation of the Analects

Three days later, Dong Zhongshu asked to see him.

A "New Interpretation of the Analects" was originally only about 50 pages, but after Dong Zhongshu's 'proofreading', it was forcibly expanded to 125 pages, which made Yang Chuan feel a little surprised.

"Changning Hou, the old man has fulfilled his mission, and the new interpretation of this Analect has been proofread."

As soon as they met, the old thief handed over the book in his hand and said with a smile: "In this world, the knowledge is often hung up, and the Marquis of Changning is invited to give advice." ”

Yang Chuan took the book, flipped through a few pages, and roughly had a clear judgment in his heart: Dong Zhongshu, an old thief, is not a son of man, a good book of Analects, after three days and three nights of processing, it has become an excuse for him to express his heart, and thousands of words are sprinkled, whether it is the narrative technique or the logic of the discussion, all of them are eye-catching.

But.

For Yang Chuan, it can only be dark in front of him.

Grass.

It's a plant......

"Dong Gong is worthy of being the biggest reader in our Han Dynasty, and this plum blossom seal is very beautiful and neat."

Yang Chuan smiled and threw the book on the desk, moved his muscles and bones, and said lazily: "The Analects of the Essays are naturally a matter of effort and ease for your Dong Gong, which is not surprising; What is eye-catching is that Dong Gong was able to integrate half of Benhou's nonsense into it, which gave people a sense of naturalness, which was really amazing. ”

Dong Zhongshu twisted his beard and smiled: "The main thing is that the martial arts exposition of the Marquis of Changning is deafening and unforgettable, in the final analysis, you Changning Marquis is the best scholar in my Han Dynasty." ”

The two of them smiled at each other, looking very comfortable and cheerful.

Only Yang Chuan knows it.

This Dong Zhongshu looked smiling, and he didn't know how many times he had dug out the eighteenth generation ancestors of his Yang Chuan family, and he probably thought about the idea of crushing his bones and scattering ashes, right?

However, the old thief can only think about it.

At the moment, whether it is the emperor Liu Che, or other powerful people and scholars in the government and the opposition, they can neither afford to provoke a big scholar like Dong Zhongshu, nor are they willing to provoke it, for fear of falling into a bad reputation of 'killing the country', but in the final analysis, even if it is like Yang Chuan, the Marquis of Guannei and Shuofang County, but it is not a soft persimmon to be pinched by others, as long as he is not too dead, Dong Zhongshu is just a scholar after all, and he can't do anything to him.

"Changning Hou, when the old man was proofreading this new interpretation of the Analects, he was really convinced after reading your 'half of the Analects' word by word."

Dong Zhongshu continued to pour chicken soup on Yang Chuan, but Yang Chuan was noncommittal.

He poured a bowl of water with his own hands and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Dong Gong, come, take a sip of water, moisten your throat and lick it again." ”

Dong Zhongshu was not angry, pointed at Yang Chuan's forehead with his finger, and scolded with a smile: "It's just that you, the Marquis of Changning, dare to be so cold to me Dong Zhongshu, if you were replaced by the governor of other counties and counties who were so rude, the old man would have beaten his and urine a long time ago." ”

Yang Chuan laughed: "If it weren't for your Dong Gong, Ben Hou wouldn't have bothered to scold him." ”

The two laughed at each other again.

Well, it looks pretty ...... Harmonious.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a tradition that if two people met in the wilderness, they would generally laugh a few times and give a salute to the head of the country to show that they had no evil thoughts in their hearts; Over time, a fashion has gradually formed, and laughing has become one of the etiquettes between people, but there is no substantive core.

Yang Chuan looked at Dong Zhongshu with kind eyebrows, thinking that his people and animals were harmless, why did he feel a little wrong?

It's almost like an old fox and a little fox.

It's exciting.

Finally, after seven or eight breaths, the laughter of the two finally stopped.

Dong Zhongshu arched his hand and said: "Changning Hou, this new interpretation of the Analects is made by you and me, when will it be published in the world?" ”

Yang Chuan picked up the book, flipped through it casually, and said with a smile: "It's just a book, Dong Gong don't worry." ”

"Hey, Dong Gong, your annotation is very wonderful."

"Oh, these two sentences about governing the country and leveling the world are also very chewy, and they are easier to understand and simple than Confucius's original words."

“……”

After a few words of casual perfunctory and flattery.

Yang Chuan put down the "New Interpretation of the Analects" in his hand, looked at Dong Zhongshu with a smile and said: "Dong Gong, you are indeed a good person, you really have the bearing of accepting all rivers and rivers, and it is not an exaggeration to praise you as a great grandmaster;

Merely.

Ben Hou's half of the words, why only the explanation, but not the note? You see, your Dong Gong's words are both explanations and notes, as well as detailed explanations of exegesis 12345, so that people can see that Ben Hou's words are like the negative teaching materials of your Dong Gongyan, even if someone deletes them casually or casually criticizes, comments, and mocks a few sentences, it seems to be okay? ”

Dong Zhongshu shook his head and said: "Changning Hou is too worried, the original intention of the old man to compile this new interpretation of the Analects is nothing more than to list as much as possible the various commentaries of the world on Confucius's subtle words, lest some people say that I Dong Zhongshu is too domineering in reading and learning, and does not leave a small path for others;

What's the matter, Changning Hou thinks that the old man's move is inappropriate? ”

Yang Chuan glanced at Dong Zhongshu, who was full of riotous white hair and awe-inspiring, and inexplicably had a trace of undetectable killing intent; However, in an instant, he gently wiped it away, keeping a harmless smile on his face, and said leisurely: "Ben Hou paid for the printing of books, but his knowledge was regarded as an anachronistic commentary, and his heart was naturally a little uncomfortable.

It's like I raised a cow, and I bothered to add grass and feed on weekdays, and raised it carefully, but unexpectedly, when I slaughtered this old cow and wanted to eat meat, I found that this cow belonged to your Dong Zhongshu's family, and I Yang Chuan could only get a few mouthfuls of cow hair, half a cow's tail, and cow hooves that neither dog could eat.

By the way, Ben Hou also heard of a strange incident in Chang'an City, about a young man who fell in love with a young lady in the neighborhood, so he tried his best to get close to and please others; The little woman was also generous, and joked that if the young man earned thirty acres of watered land, one thousand two hundred coins, thirty stones of good grain and rice, and built a new yard in one year, she would agree to marry the young man;

When the young man heard this, he was overjoyed, so he worked hard to earn money, and at the end of the year, he finally scraped together enough money and food for the amount that people wanted, and went to propose marriage; The little woman was full of promises.

So, looking for a matchmaker, giving a dowry, holding a wedding, eating a banquet, and marrying the little woman with joy.

But when it was time to enter the cave, the little woman told the boy that there was nothing left for him.

Because, the bridegroom is someone else.

Dong Gong, tell me, there is such a truth in the world? ”

Dong Zhongshu's eyes flashed, and he said indifferently: "The two stories told by the Marquis of Changning are not funny at all. ”

Yang Chuan's face gradually turned cold, and said: "Naturally, it's not funny, because, this kind of obvious bullying thing, Lao Tzu is disgusted when he hears it, and he wants to kill people; If I, Yang Chuan, were the young man, I would kill the whole family of the little woman, and then kill all the bridegroom's family, and it would be necessary to wipe out the three tribes inside and outside him, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart and quench the anger in my chest. ”

These few words were said very coldly, and Dong Zhongshu couldn't help but sit up straight when he heard them.

The old thief stared straight into Yang Chuan's eyes: "Changning Hou, sometimes, it is not a good thing to rather be broken than broken." ”

Yang Chuan also stared at Dong Zhongshu directly, and said coldly: "What are you Dong Zhongshu, spending my Yang Chuan family's money and food, eating my Yang Chuan family's food, drinking my Yang Chuan family's wine and tea, and even the seven attics of the Tai Academy, I Yang Chuan found a way to get it for you Dong Zhongshu;

Clinker, in the end, but raised a white-eyed wolf?

Your "New Interpretation of the Analects" is covered with a skin of Confucius, filled with the bones and flesh of your Dong Zhongshu, but you use half of my Yang Chuan's words as feces and urine residues, which is really a good means. ”

Dong Zhongshu shook his head lightly and said: "Marquis Changning, in this book, your Yang's name is ranked before me Dong Zhongshu, this glory, looking at the world, can be met but not sought, even if it is the emperor Liu Che, what can he do?" If I don't want Dong Zhongshu......"

Dong Zhongshu was about to continue, but Yang Chuan picked up the tea bowl: "Dong Zhongshu, you can get out." ”

"By the way, by the way, in the future, the threshold of my Yang clan is a bit high, don't come in the future, lest Benhou be disgusted by you, an old and unashamed person, and commit a diaphragm."

Dong Zhongshu's big black face turned green immediately.

The old thief Huo Ran got up and asked again: "Yang Chuan, do you really want to cooperate with the old man this time?" ”

Yang Chuan didn't speak, just picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Dong Zhongshu took a deep breath, seemed to think for a moment, took a big step forward, and grabbed Yang Chuan's shoulder with his hand.

Yang Chuan had actually been guarding against this old thief for a long time, he was holding a tea bowl in his hand, but his whole body was already tense and accumulating, like a swift cheetah, suddenly a short body, avoiding Dong Zhongshu's grasp.

Although he was determined, Dong Zhongshu was nothing more than annoyed and angry, and wanted to capture him and then force him a little

"The shaft is rude!"

Dong Zhongshu caught it in vain, and only then did he say a sentence in his mouth, it was obvious that the old thief had the intention of sneak attack.

Yang Chuan didn't say a word.

Since this old thief tears off the skin and wants to come hard, then it is better to come directly to the hard one; To be honest, for a big scholar like Dong Zhongshu, the so-called national scholar, he actually still has a trace of extravagance, and he always feels that this person, if he has read a lot of books, it shouldn't be too bad.

Now it seems that how much you read has nothing to do with good or bad character or fart?

Yang Chuan avoided Dong Zhongshu's sharp grasp, and stood next to a pillar seven or eight steps away, his face showing the usual harmlessness of humans and animals, just looking at Dong Zhongshu who was annoyed and angry.

"Yang Chuan, it's not a good thing for you to provoke a scholar," Dong Zhongshu caught up in vain, but he no longer caught up and continued to entangle, but calmly shook his clothes, and said with a smile on his face: "I have long heard that Changning Hou is flexible and fast, and it is beyond the reach of others. ”

"The old man cherishes a young man like you, he can't help itchy, stretch out his hand and try it, Changning Hou must not be angry."

Yang Chuan smiled slightly, and said: "You Dong Zhongshu is a big scholar, I heard that even the emperor dares to contradict it, how can I be a little Guannei Hou?" ”

"From now on, you can catch it if you want it, and you can take it if you want to."

"Even, Ben Hou is just a farmer, nothing more than making a few small dishes, a little person; If there is anything wrong in the future, you Dong Zhongshu can still hold up the mouth of your big scholar, even if you come to scold, even if you come to fight, if I Yang Chuan has one more nonsense, I will let Sang Hongyang die the whole family. ”

Dong Zhongshu's face stiffened, and said, "It's the old man who is reckless." ”

Yang Chuan sneered a few times, turned around and left.

What's the point of being entangled with this old thief? It is better to go out and take a walk in the fields, take a look, and survey the terrain and landform by the way, so as to dig a few more diversion canals for Shuofang Tuntian.

As for finding a way to kill Dong Zhongshu, it will naturally be the meaning of the topic, sooner or later......

……

"Dongfang Shuo, Sima Qian, Zhang Tang, all three of you are readers, see if there is any merit in this "New Interpretation of the Analects"?"

Early the next morning, Yang Chuan rarely gave a lecture to Liu Man, Zhiniang, and Naren Tuoya, but summoned Dongfang Shuo and a few people, threw the book "New Interpretation of the Analects" compiled by Dong Zhongshu over, and asked several people to read it.

"I have to say that Dong Gong is indeed the biggest scholar in the Han Dynasty, and I am not as good as him in this examination alone," after reading the new interpretation of the Analects, Sima Qian shook his head and sighed: "It is very difficult to integrate different explanations into one, and it is rare for him to be able to do it so naturally." ”

Dongfang Shuo and Zhang Tang also nodded and praised.

Yang Chuan listened, just laughed and said nothing.

There are some things that can only be said not to be done; There are some things that can only be done, not said.

Dong Zhongshu, the old thief, must die.

However, it is not possible to give people the truth, otherwise, once it is publicized, he Yang Chuan has committed the act of 'killing national soldiers', and it will be difficult to move an inch in the Han Empire in the future.

even, to bring death to yourself.

"Marquis Changning, can this copy of "New Interpretation of the Analects" be published?" Dongfang Shuo asked.

"Print, why not print?" Yang Chuan said with a smile: "That's good, since it is a masterpiece of Dong Zhongshu, the author's name on the cover can naturally only be someone else, and I, as the Marquis of Changning and the Taishou of Shuofang County, will not go to join in the excitement."

Of course, in order to spit out the original intention of the Benhou Wu Interpretation of the Analects, you can slightly change the font size of the part of the half of the Xuanyu, try to make it thicker, larger, and look more violent.

As for the part of Dong Zhongshu's annotation, people are readers, so they should naturally be more refined, and the font size should be as thin and small as possible, so that people with bad eyes can not see clearly......"

Yang Chuan's words made Dongfang Shuo, Sima Qian, and Zhang Tang stunned for a while.

At the same time, the eyelids of these three people were also beating wildly.

Can you still play like this?

"By the way, the publication of this book will be done by Ben Hou himself," Yang Chuan added, "Dong Zhongshu is the biggest reader in the Han Dynasty, once he is not satisfied with the quality of the book, it is estimated that he will find someone unlucky;

Your titles are too low, your official ranks are too small, and your martial arts are too poor to withstand the wrath of the great scholars.

Then, let Ben Hou bear it. ”
