Chapter 11 Celebration
Cai Zhaoji and Cao Yun glanced at each other, and their gazes quickly swept over. Cao Yun didn't pay much attention to it, but just paid a little attention to Cai Yong, who was communicating with Zheng Xuan.
"Cao Yun, come over and see Cai Gong. ”
Zheng Xuan said to Cao Yun, Cao Yun hurriedly walked in front of Cai Yong, waved his hand and bowed and said, "Cao Yun has seen Cai Gong in the later life. ”
Cai Yong nodded when he heard this, "The future is terrifying, I became a Confucian at a young age, and my future achievements will definitely be above ours." Cai Yong smiled after speaking.
"Thank you Cai Gong for your encouragement. "Cao Yun is not hypocritical.
At this time, Jia Xu's face on the side was getting more and more ugly. Jia Xu has always been not taken seriously by Zheng Xuan, even if he has become a Confucian, Zheng Xuan is a little unkind to see Jia Xu. Jia Xu has also been trying hard to gain Zheng Xuan's approval, but Cao Yun is still able to live Zheng Xuan's life so easily, and he has also won Cai Yong's praise, why? Jia Xu is extremely unconvinced. Then Liu Ye felt that something was wrong at this time, could it be that this Cao Yun had really cultivated Haoran righteousness and became a Confucian? Otherwise, how could he be appreciated by Zheng Xuan and Cai Yong!
"Cao Yun, you write down the words of your words, and I will splash it with pen and ink later, to prove to the Confucian scholars that you have become a Confucian. Remember to hold the pen with the right heart. Zheng Xuan said to Cao Yun.
Cao Yun was stunned when he heard this, how to prove this, and then searched the memory in his mind, and sure enough, he found an allusion. This allusion is that in the Middle Ages, there was a Confucian named Han Fei, who was framed by his classmates for ** a folk girl, and when he was taken into custody, Han Fei wrote on the spot 'I learn the blue sky with my heart', and then splashed ink on the words. The white paper was instantly blackened, but the surface of the paper around the seven characters was still white, and it was not blackened by the ink. And just when the ink was about to be sprinkled on the seven characters, the seven characters flashed a trace of white gas, blocking the ink. The jailer who went to take Han Fei into custody was shocked on the spot, but Han Fei was a Confucian and did not dare to take Han Fei into custody. After much investigation, it was found out that Han Fei was framed by his classmates.
It seems that Cao Yun is also going to prove that he is a Confucian like this today, but he is still a little nervous in his heart, what if the words I write are soaked in ink, wouldn't it be a big ugly.
Cao Yun took a few deep breaths, slowly walked to the desk, the pen rotated in the inkstone and dipped in ink, and after dipping in ink, he exhaled a long breath. Concentrate your thoughts and write them down one by one.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations", twenty-two big characters jumped on the paper, and the surrounding Confucian scholars only felt a mighty breath rushing in. Liu Ye's expression changed and changed, and he quietly moved his steps back, leaving the academy while everyone was attracted by Cao Yun's handwriting, so as not to be ridiculed later.
Jia Xu looked at Cao Yun's handwriting, gritted his teeth, and had a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, where was the words he wrote were not as good as Cao Yun, whether it was the horizontal and vertical strokes, or the heroic righteousness contained in the words.
Cai Yong looked at Cao Yun's words, stroked his beard and said: "Yes, it's a pity that the pen strength is a little worse, and it will take some time to practice, and time is enough to become a calligrapher." ”
"Well, the pen is a little bit worse. Zheng Xuan also nodded and said.
When Jia Xu heard this, his heart calmed down a little, and it seemed that Zheng Xuan and Cai Yong could still judge that Cao Yun's writing ability was still a little worse.
Zheng Xuan walked to the desk at the same time as he finished speaking, and looked at the words written by Cao Yun again, "I'm still a little reluctant to splash ink on it." Zheng Xuan smiled lightly after speaking, then picked up the inkstone and splashed the ink in the inkstone on the paper.
As soon as the ink was sprinkled on the paper, most of them were dyed black, but when the surrounding Confucian scholars saw that the ink was splashed on the twenty-two characters, the twenty-two characters actually emitted a trace of white gas, and the ink was pushed away, preventing the ink from spilling on the handwriting.
"Oh~"
Many Confucian scholars are worthy of Han Fei's allusion, but they don't want to be able to witness such a picture with their own eyes today. The trace of white air really makes people feel Haoran, which makes people feel extremely comfortable in their hearts, and feel that the sun is also full of sunshine under this hazy sky.
Seeing this, Jia Xu snorted coldly, a little embarrassed, and thought in his heart: "This Cao Yun's aura is far inferior to mine, I really don't know why Zheng Gong attaches so much importance to him, could it be that he is some relative of Zheng Gong." ”
The ink was all splashed on the paper, and most of the paper around Cao Yun's twenty-two characters was not blackened by the ink, but some of them were still dyed black, and the words Shengmin, Juexue, and Kai Taiping were all soaked in ink, and the font could no longer be seen.
After a while, Zheng Xuan asked Li Yan to hold up the words written by Cao Yun, and said loudly: "Everyone has also seen that the words written by Cao Yun have not been impregnated with ink, although a few words have been impregnated, it is because Cao Yun has just cultivated Haoran righteousness, and there is not much Haoran in his body." Everyone should know by now that Cao Yun has cultivated a heroic and righteous spirit, and to become a Confucian, he only needs his husband to report to the imperial court. I believe that all the Confucian scholars present understand that in order to cultivate a righteous spirit, one must be sincere and upright, and reach the state of concentration. After centering, the heart has a place to belong and can be focused, can focus on the sincerity, can be sincere can be the heart, the heart is right, the heart is right, and the heart is correct to get the "middle" of my Confucianism. To get "middle" is to realize the road of Confucianism, and it is the beginning of proving my Confucianism step by step. Only by doing this can we cultivate a righteous spirit, will such a person be arrogant and disrespectful of etiquette and disrespect for the king's law?"
Zheng Xuan said and glanced at the surrounding Confucian students, and Jia Xu hurriedly lowered his head, because Jia Xu knew that he was not just doing these things to become a Confucian, and his Haoran righteousness was obtained by boiling and swallowing half of the bones obtained in the Hanpu Mountains, and this Haoran righteousness was dissipating little by little, and there was only a little bone left.
Cao Yun was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, he didn't seem to have achieved these Haoran righteousness, and he had cultivated Haoran righteousness in the palace of the princes that day. Is this a legitimate way to cultivate Haoran righteousness? Cao Yun had some doubts in his heart, and his thoughts were not so firm.
Of course, it is legitimate for Cao Yun to cultivate Haoran righteousness, that day in the Hall of Princes, Cao Yun was enlightened by the image of Zhuzi, and in the process of enlightenment, he achieved sincerity and righteousness, and reached concentration. It seems that the time to cultivate Haoran righteousness is extremely short, but in fact, Cao Yun saw the imprint of the life of the sons in the Hall of Princes, which is a reflection of millions of years, if it is not in the Hall of Princes, Cao Yun is estimated to be directly supported by those memories to burst his soul. The reason why Cao Yun didn't read recently, and he didn't even dare to think about the images he saw in the Hall of Princes, was that he was worried that the soul would be beyond his control.
Zheng Xuan glanced at the surrounding Confucian scholars as he spoke, except for the Confucian students in Qingzhou, their impression of Cao Yun had changed greatly, after all, anyone who has raised a heroic and righteous spirit is a great person, and in time he will be a big man. However, the Confucian students in Qingzhou still did not want to accept the fact that Cao Yun had cultivated Haoran righteousness, how could this be? A traitor like Cao Yun could also cultivate Haoran righteousness? These Confucian scholars were looking for Liu Ye in the crowd, wanting to find the pillar of their concepts, and wanting to see Liu Ye come out to criticize Cao Yun, but they didn't want to see Liu Ye, thinking that Liu Ye was disappointed and left the Great Guozi Academy for the sake of today's Confucianism and Taoism, and then they also cursed and turned away, saying that the people's hearts are not ancient.
