Chapter 27: Zheng Xue

Everyone was also stunned.

The Hu people can speak Chinese, which is quite unusual.

"You say that you are a student and can practice the gift of bondage?" A disciple asked.

With this question, Wang Hu's face suddenly turned red.

After a long time, he held back a sentence: "I owe it first." ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone immediately laughed.

Throughout the ages, I have never heard of a lack of restraint.

Sun Qian was also quite embarrassed at this time, he never thought that the other party would be so brazen.

In the Han Dynasty, he pursued the idea of "if he is not of my race, his heart must be different", and he treated the Hu people with a discriminatory gaze.

Yang Ming took a step forward at this time.

Wang Hu noticed Yang Ming, his face was delighted, and he was about to speak.

"You said you came to study, so can you succeed in your studies?" Yang Ming spoke before him.

As soon as Yang Ming said this, all the disciples looked at Wang Hu in unison, waiting to see the joke.

Wang Hu is just a yellow mouth, how can he learn anything.

Yang Ming's move can be described as a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle.

The nineteenth chapter of "The Mean" says: Those who are honest are the way of heaven, and those who are sincere are also the way of man. The master said: Those who are sincere are also by nature, and those who are sincere are also those who learn and are sincere. Wang Hu raised his head and said.

After he finished speaking, the eyes of all the disciples widened in disbelief.

Yang Ming was also impressed.

The reason why he asked just now was also because he saw Wang Hu understand Han etiquette that day.

If Wang Huzhen is studying, there will inevitably be an answer.

Unexpectedly, he not only answered, but also meant something, and used "sincerity" to express that he was not lying.

"The Master is coming, and he will disperse first." Sun Qian opened his mouth at this time, and this was the default that Wang Hu stayed.

When the disciples heard this, they dispersed one after another.

Wang Hu showed gratitude to Yang Ming at this time, bowed down and said, "Thank you Shaojun for your second help." ”

Yang Ming bowed his head and smiled.

This kid is neither arrogant nor humble, and quite likable.

After Wang Hu left, Yang Ming and Sun Qian went to the book house a little further.

There are not many seats in the study room, and only the disciples in the room have seats.

Yang Ming's seat was next to Sun Qian, in the front row.

When Zheng Xuan came in, he saw Yang Ming, bowed slightly, and then sat on the stage and began to teach.

"Reciting the original meaning of the ancestors, thinking about the unevenness of the hundred schools. There are several families, there are several families, and those with many chapters and sentences may be more than a million words, and the apprenticeship is in vain and less work, and the later is doubtful and not correct. Therefore, it is necessary to return to the scriptures themselves, which is mainly based on ancient scriptures, but there are many deficiencies in ancient scriptures, or there are difficult points to understand, and the words of modern scriptures can be adopted at the same time. ”

Zheng Xuan's opening was magnificent, but it was also concise and to the point, clarifying the priority of the ancient scriptures and the modern scriptures.

Then, he began to talk about the part that Yang Ming paid the most attention to, how to take both.

He cites the system of patrols as an example.

The so-called patrol system is similar to the governor system of the Ming Dynasty, except that before Qin, it was the patrol of the Son of Heaven.

There are three mentions of the patrol system in the scriptures:

"Shangshu Yaodian" cloud: "Five years and one patrol, four dynasties after the group." ”

"The Book of Rites: The Royal System" cloud: "The Son of Heaven patrols every five years. ”

"Zhou Li: Daxingren" cloud: "Ten and two years old, the king patrols the Yin country. ”

It is obvious that the records in the "Book of Rites" and the "Book of Rites" are consistent, and they are both patrolled by the Son of Heaven every five years.

This is also a conclusive matter in the "White Tiger Tongde Treatise" after the White Tiger View Conference of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty in the past.

However, it is recorded in the "Rites of the Week" that the Son of Heaven only patrolled once when he was twelve years old.

There is a contradiction between the three, and the three scriptures, "Shangshu" and "Book of Rites" are both modern scriptures, which have been inherited from the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, while "Zhou Li" was not discovered until the end of the Western Han Dynasty and are ancient scriptures.

It is natural, then, that the disciples of the ancient scriptures who studied the "Zhou Li" thought that the records of the modern scriptures were made by the Confucian disciples because they were orally written, and there were memory errors.

On the other hand, the disciples of the present Wenjing who studied the "Book of Rites" and the "Book of Rites" thought that the "Zhou Li" was wrongly recorded, otherwise it would not be different from the two scriptures.

The two views are irreconcilable and debated.

Zheng Xuan annotated it like this:

"The Book of Rites: The Royal System" cloud: "The Son of Heaven patrols every five years. ”

Zheng Xuan's note: The Son of Heaven takes the sea as his home, and he patrols the province from time to time. Five years, Yu and Xia are also systematic. Zhou Ze was twelve years old and patrolled.

After Yang Ming said the annotation, Yang Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Zheng Xuan is talented!

This annotation is easy to understand, the Son of Heaven has to patrol, in Yu and Xia, once every five years, but in Zhou, it is changed to a patrol at the age of twelve.

Even if the so-called "six-year patrol" is found in other scriptures later, it will not be a problem, because it can be placed in such a system as "Yin" or a certain generation of hegemony.

As for the conflict between the "six-year patrol" and the existing scriptures, it is also impossible, because the patrol system of each dynasty must be unique.

Then, the words of the three families are gathered in one note, concise and clear.

This is Zheng Xuan's method, which gives time to the scriptures.

On this basis, it can be concluded that "Zhou Guan" is the trace of Zhou Gong's peace; "Yaodian" and others are tied to Yao Shun and become the system of Tang Yu; "Yu Gong" and others are tied to the Xia world and become Xia Fa; "Shang Song" and others are tied to the Shang world and become the Yin system.

The legacies of the Dharma of these different saints together constitute the "Sutra Study".

Of course, the differences between ancient and modern scriptures are not as obvious as Zheng Xuan's examples, and it is not easy to adopt both, which is why Zheng Xuan asked Yang Ming to learn the ancient scriptures first.

After this day's teaching, Yang Ming's understanding of scriptures was earth-shattering.

Of course, it is also more and more certain that Zheng Xue is feasible as a national study.

Scholars who are familiar with Zheng are unable to resist when discussing scriptures with others.

Because to deny Zheng Xue is equivalent to denying yourself.

After Zheng Xuan's lecture was finished, Yang Ming communicated with him again.

By the time we were done, it was already a little dark.

Yang Ming returned to the house satisfied, but suddenly found that Ah Yi, who was supposed to appear in the house every day, was not there.

He found Zhang Liao, and Zhang Liao was fascinated by "Receiving the Message", and only then did he realize it.

After waiting for a while and no one came, the two went down the mountain together.

It wasn't until they reached the foot of the mountain that they saw Ah Yi, who looked a little flustered.

"What's wrong?" Yang Ming asked the guard.

"It's okay, it's just that the servant is slower." Ah Yi explained.

"I'm asking what's wrong." Yang Ming's voice deepened.

"It's that Zhao Yan, he spoke lightly on the street, and I waited until I said the name of Shaojun before he left." The guard explained that Ah Yi was afraid of causing trouble for Yang Ming, so let them stop talking.

Yang Ming's face turned cold obviously.

"From tomorrow onwards, you won't have to send food to the mountains." He looked at Ah Yi and said.

"Shaojun, ...... servant" Ah Yiyi said something, but saw Yang Ming's eyes and held back.

"You send her back." Yang Ming took the food box, and then ordered the guards.

Ah Yi showed his grievances and could only leave with the guards.

"Falcon, go and see how the Tong Hui case is investigated." Yang Ming turned to Zhang Liao and said.

Zhang Liao received the order and went down the mountain directly.

Yang Ming looked at the county seat in the distance.

He didn't want to clash with Zhao Yan head-on, but that didn't mean he couldn't use other ways.

When he returned to the mountain, Yang Ming found that Wang Hu had not returned, and was waiting for him at the gate of the house.

"What's the matter with you?" Yang Ming was in a bad mood at this time, and his tone was not good.

"Can the young gentleman lend me some money, I want to buy some bundles and masters, and ask them to accept me as a disciple." Wang Hu grabbed the corner of his clothes with his hand and said.

"Figure it out for yourself." Although Yang Ming had a good impression of Wang Hu, he didn't care about these things at this time.

And when he had said that, he was going into the house.

But he never thought that Wang Hu knelt down directly to him: "Shaojun is the only one who is willing to help me, and I hope Shaojun will help me again." ”

Yang Ming sneered when he heard this, he must help if he helped?

This is different from Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao is a general he knows in the future, and he has never heard of Wang Hu in front of him.

Not to mention that he has already helped twice.

"Now that you have gone to school, you don't know that a man has gold under his knees?" He said coldly.

"Han Xin can still endure the humiliation of his crotch, and besides, the hero of the young monarch world, I have nothing to kneel into." Wang Humian did not change his color and replied.

Yang Ming was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Wang Hu carefully.

Wang Hu, at most ten years old, although the men of the Han Dynasty matured early, but if they did not have enough experience, it was difficult to be so precocious.

"You haven't eaten yet, come in with me." Yang Ming finally spoke.

Wang Hu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately got up and entered the house with Yang Ming.
