Chapter 356: Guozijian Lectures
"There is indeed a big secret in the Book of Songs, but now I have thoroughly comprehended and understood one of the poems, "Pu Jia", and I can't fully explore the true meaning of it......
Su Lin casually took out a copy of the "Book of Songs" and looked through the past, except for the "Pu Jia" that had been comprehended, he did not have such a deep understanding of other poems at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After trying again and again, even if Surin used three thoughts, he couldn't decipher the secret. It's as if the entire Book of Songs has been forcibly added with a code, and special methods and ideas are needed to unlock the secrets hidden in it.
After resting in the wing room for half an hour, Su Lin picked up his own identity jade plate, and the holy power of thought was injected into it, and it was shown by the holy power.
"Lu Xiangyu, a university scholar, needs to consume a little credit to explain the Analects. This is clearly aimed at the students of the Xiucai class......"
Through the screening, Su Lin can see that the classes that are being taught now and are about to start. However, most of today's lectures are taught by university scholars, and occasionally one or two unknown Hanlin scholars give classes, but none of them are courses that Su Lin is interested in.
"It seems...... Even among the Guozijian, it is not every day that there is an opportunity to hear the lectures of the Great Confucians and Semi-Saints. It is said that the Great Confucian class seems to be only once in seven days...... I'm afraid it's going to be a month or two......"
Since he didn't have a course that interested him, Su Lin sat down and recovered his thoughts and holy powers, and then walked out of the Su Shefu courtyard and wandered around the entire Guozijian.
Generally speaking, the area of Kunikojian is still very large, nearly 500 acres, and it is probably the largest residential complex in the entire Kyoto, except for the Imperial Palace. Because hundreds of students, as well as hundreds of teachers, have residences in it.
"The buildings in the entire Guozijian are also arranged according to the five elements...... It seems that the Confucian scholars who designed the Guozijian at the beginning were also quite accustomed to the Five Elements Thought!"
Su Lin is still more interested and comprehended in the Five Elements Thought. Moreover, he also found that the idea of the five elements is not only exclusive to the Yin and Yang family and Taoism, but has actually deeply penetrated this idea of the five elements in the distribution, naming and writing of the city buildings.
The five elements are mutually reinforcing, and the power of the five elements is combined to form a colorful world. This kind of Five Elements Thought has actually been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the Tianren Continent.
Among the Guozijian, there are several natural lakes, and even several mountain peaks, there are mountains and waters, and there is even a large river that crosses the entire Guozijian, and then flows into the outer moat.
"I heard that among the eunuchs of this country, there are also many demi-saints of the famous Wu Kingdom who are cultivating. Not to mention the Great Confucians, but they are all in retreat and seeking breakthroughs in their thoughts, and they usually don't show up. ā
Along the way, Surin met many students of Guozijian, and they all knew Surin after today's introductory test. But they are all from different families, although they admire Su Lin's talent, but they will not deliberately take the initiative to come forward to make friends, at most when they meet Su Lin, they just nodded slightly to show friendship.
"Brother Su...... Brother Su, wait for us ......"
Just after Su Lin had almost visited the main places of Guozijian, a familiar voice came from behind him, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was the Yang family brothers who met on the way to Beijing, one was Yang Weicheng and the other was Yang Weiya. Both caught up with Surin panting.
"Brother Yang, what's wrong, is there something wrong with me?" Su Lin asked with a smile.
"Yes, Brother Su, we heard that you established the Su Society, so we brothers also want to join your Su Society, I don't know if we can do it?"
Yang Weicheng opened his mouth to speak, and Yang Weiya also echoed and said, "Brother Su, both of us brothers admire your talent very much, and feel that following you will definitely be able to better cultivate your thoughts and improve your realm." You're going to take the two of us, right?"
"Oh, two Yang brothers, it seems that your Yang family also has a special literary society, how could you give up your own literary society to join my Su Society?"
Su Lin asked as he walked, this Yang family is also a first-class family in the capital, and Yang Wenchang Daru is one of the top ten sacrificial wines of Guozijian. If Su Lin is not mistaken, the Yang Society of the Yang family seems to be in the top ten of the Great Literary Society in the Wine Sacrifice Palace, and its strength is also good.
"This ...... Brother Su, I won't tell you, although our brothers are also children of the Yang family, they are not the most descendant after all. Being able to enter the Guozijian to study is already a great fluke. As for the Yang Society, we are just raising the ranks, not the opponents of those Jinshi brothers. In order to squeeze out the status of our vein in the Yang family, they basically rarely give us the opportunity to earn a large number of credits......"
Yang Weicheng explained.
"So we actually wanted to leave Yang She and work alone for a long time, but now that we have met Brother Su and opened the Literary Society, if Brother Su doesn't dislike the two of us for being lowly and not deep enough, just accept us!" Yang Weiya also said sincerely.
"Excluded? is it any wonder...... It seems that these big families in the capital seem to be strong and prosperous, but in fact, the struggle for power and profit among the children inside is still very cruel and harsh! Unlike our Su family, the children of the family are extremely united, and the talented live there, and there is no internal competition at all. ā
After learning about the situation of the Yang family brothers, Su Lin did not agree to them immediately, but just nodded and told them: "Although I am the president of the Su Society, after all, it is not a trivial matter to let the two of you who are not my Su family children join the Su Society." Let's wait for me to go back and discuss it with my eldest brother Su Ye, if you think it's okay, you two will join my Su Society. ā
"Then thank you Brother Su, with Brother Su's talent, leading the Su Society, he will definitely be able to complete tasks that many other literary societies can't do, and when the time comes, he will get a lot of credits, and he will have the hope of hitting the top ten literary clubs. If we can follow you, we will definitely have the opportunity to earn more credits......"
Yang Weicheng thanked him, and then saw that Su Lin seemed to be hanging out all the time, so he suggested to Su Lin: "It seems that there is a Yin and Yang family Zou Yi today who is giving a lecture on the way of the five elements of Yin and Yang, I wonder if Brother Su is interested in going and listening to it together?"
"Why didn't I notice ......?"
As soon as he heard that it was a lecture by a scholar from the Yin-Yang Family, Su Lin was of course interested, and when he heard that this scholar from the Hanlin Family was called Zou Yi, he was puzzled, "This Zou Yi is a member of the Zou Family, a half-saint family of the Yin-Yang Family, and what is the relationship with Zou Ziqi?"
"Brother Su, the course information on your identity jade plate is just some ordinary low-level courses, and it will be passed on to the jade plate. The courses that really benefit you a lot are not announced on the jade plaque, but you need to use credits to buy them at the sacrificial wine hall......"
Yang Weicheng said with a smile, "Almost every day, there is a well-known scholar from Hallym University who gives a lecture. However, you have to go to the temple and spend one credit to find out exactly where the class is being held, who is holding the class, and so on. ā
"Oh, I see, but it's really dark! It costs one credit to know such a message, and how many credits do you need to listen to the lecture?"
Su Lin suddenly realized and asked again.
"This Zou Yi is indeed a member of the Yin and Yang family's semi-holy family, and the Zou Ziqi that Brother Su just said seems to be an uncle and nephew. Among our national eunuchs, this Zou Yi can be ranked in the top five among the gentlemen of Hallym University. Lectures are naturally not cheap, and one class costs five credits......"
Yang Weicheng said, "Moreover, even if I tell Brother Su the information about this class. In fact, Brother Su still had to go to the sacrificial wine hall to spend one credit to inspect before he could qualify to enter the class. So to be precise, listening to Zou Yi's class will cost six credits. ā
"It's a lot of money! Six credits a class, but ...... I'm also curious about what the Yin-Yang Family Hallym University Scholar lectures are like, let's go! Six credits are six credits, and it's good to go for a long time. ā
Although Su Lin felt a little distressed about the credits, wasn't the credits earned just for spending? And from the fight with Zou Ziqi, Su Lin was actually still very interested in the thoughts of the Yin and Yang Family. This independent school of thought, which was born out of Taoism and specializes in the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, does have its merits.
"That's very good, Brother Su, let's go to the lecture together! You can also get acquainted with Zou Hanlin by the way, if you can be favored by him, you will be lucky to be accepted as a personal disciple. Don't look at Zou Hanlin is not a Great Confucian yet, but it is said that he can break through to the Great Confucian at any time now, but he is still accumulating and waiting for the opportunity!" Yang Weicheng said.
"Disciples? I already have a teacher......"
Su Lin smiled and waved his hand, wanting to be his teacher, but it was really not an ordinary Hanlin Confucian. Even, even when the demi-saint stood in front of him, Surin never wanted to apprentice. Because in fact, his teacher is the sage Confucius, he opened his wisdom with the holy saying "a gentleman is not a weapon", and when he opened up the wisdom sea, Confucius's illusion appeared in the wisdom sea, which was equivalent to accepting Su Lin as a personal disciple.
"Oh, Brother Su is talented, he must have been carefully taught by his powerful predecessors. But why have I never heard of Brother Su having a teacher? I don't know which great Confucian or half-saint it is?"
In Yang Weicheng's opinion, if he can teach a genius like Su Lin, even if he is not a half-saint, he must be a great Confucian. However, he would never have imagined that Su Lin's real teacher was probably only Confucius and Confucius.
