Chapter 203: The Six Arts of Confucianism and the First Class Scholar
In the small courtyard of the maple forest, in front of the stone table.
When a certain woman like Lan said the words "the road is blocked and long", the air calmed down.
Inside the teacup on the table, the curling white smoke gradually thinned.
At the entrance of the courtyard, the two scholars who were waiting in front of the teacher both looked into the door, and then looked at each other with curious eyes.
At the stone table, the two college gentlemen were speechless.
Yan Jidao stared at the woman in the Confucian shirt with light in her eyes in front of her.
He knew that the trend of their conversation at this moment was to ask questions, and the next step was likely to be a solemn discussion, describing their own Confucianism and Taoism, and cross-examining and arguing each other, so as to sharpen the avenue of both sides.
Even if you talk about it for three days and three nights, Yan Jidao doesn't feel unusual.
However, he was not prepared to accept.
Yan Jidao picked up the teacup, but his lips touched the rim of the cup, and then put it down, he looked up and looked at Zhu Weirui, nodded, and shook his head again.
Zhu Weirui's bright eyes gradually darkened, she also nodded, and smiled slightly, "I take the liberty to disturb today, and the seniors will return to the academy another day, and Weirui will come to the door with a gift to apologize." If it's okay, I'll take my leave. ”
"Mr. Zhu is polite, the old man will send this piece of paper to Zhao Ziyu, please go slowly. ”
Zhu Weirui put away the teacup for her own use, got up and saluted, and then turned to leave.
Yan Jidao touched his beard while looking at Zhu Weirui's departing back.
He didn't ask Zhu Weirui, in addition to being very unfamiliar with calligraphy and not knowing much about it, but also because Yan Jidao was not optimistic about Zhu Weirui's "left side door", and did not think that calligraphy could give birth to a new calligraphy.
In his opinion, isn't calligraphy just a text carrier for poems, songs, and scriptures?
Lishu, cursive, regular script, as long as the writing is correct and clear and not ugly, as for how good these words are, there is not much need, excessive pursuit is just putting the cart before the horse, wasting energy.
Can you still write flowers?
Where is the requirement for calligraphy? As long as you can be poor and subtle, and the scholarly articles have insight into the way of heaven, even if you write the ghost characters of the characters, God will have to pinch your nose to recognize them.
Besides, let's not mention the special writing of the primeval people, but just say that the original intention of the human race was just a way and tool to record the language and make it pass on for a long time.
Nowadays, for tens of thousands of years, the calligraphy that has been developed to pay attention to writing is nothing more than the idle and boring interest of the ordinary scholars of the Yamashita Dynasty.
The hundred monks on the mountain have all focused their main energy on the Heavenly Dao, and they have never heard of any mortal who can enter the Tao by studying calligraphy, so where would the hundred monks care about this kind of small technique under their noses.
These are not just Yan Jidao's understandings, this is actually the default common sense of the entire Xuanhuang Cultivation Realm.
Calligraphy, unlike painting the Tao and Music Dao, the latter two can concretely manifest the "Great Dao" and are recognized as the path of the monks, while calligraphy, in addition to the meaning that a single word is supposed to give to it, how can it manifest its own meaning, to contain the Great Dao like a finished article?
Historically, there are not people who don't believe in evil and want to try, they also want to enter the Tao with the law, but in the end, which one is not hit by hitting the south wall and breaking the blood, and the most recent one of the more famous "examples" is in Linlu Academy.
In front of Yan Jidao's eyes.
Yan Jidao watched Zhu Weirui's back disappear from view and sighed softly.
This woman should be very lonely, in the Confucian Academy, surrounded by fellow schools, but she can't find a "fellow believer"......
He slowly withdrew his gaze.
Confucianism in the Xuanhuang realm has six arts, which have been explored by Confucian sages for tens of thousands of years.
Jingyi Art.
Poetry and art.
Rites.
Musical arts.
Chess.
Painting.
These six arts, Confucianism all have corresponding paths of cultivation, mature cultivation methods, for Confucian students to choose, to practice and study.
This is also the first year after the new students of the Confucian Academy are admitted to the academy, and they must learn the six arts.
Among them, it is divided into two major arts and four small arts.
The two major arts are the scriptures and the poems.
The four small arts are the remaining four.
Zhu Weirui gave up the promising Confucianism and Taoism, and turned to the "small arts" of calligraphy, which was not only widely spread within Confucianism, but also had a great repercussion among other hundred schools.
"Confucian first-class scholar, why bother, leave the Jixia School Palace and come to this small Wangque Continent......"
Yan Jidao turned his head to stare at the distant mountains and muttered in his mouth.
For the monks of the hundred schools, it is extremely difficult to change the identity from a scholar to a gentleman.
Take Confucianism as an example, as long as the new students who enter the Confucian Academy can be accepted as apprentices by the academy master, they can obtain the title of scholar.
However, the title of gentleman is very difficult, the proportion is very small, and there are only a few medium-sized Confucian academies, and they are the mainstay of the school.
Once awarded the title of gentleman by the Zhongzhou Confucian Temple, even if he is unknown, he can instantly become famous in the seventy-two academies of Jiuzhou.
Just like not long ago, Zhao Rong learned about the new gentleman of Siqi Academy in the newspaper of the mountain mansion.
The first-class Confucian scholar is a special existence among the vast number of Confucian scholars.
The Zhongzhou Confucian Temple takes a certain number of years as a period, and among all the young Confucian students in this period, the handful of reading seeds with the most potential are selected, and they are included in the roster and marked as first-class scholars.
The Temple of Literature focuses on observation and cultivation.
They are all candidates for gentlemen.
Zhu Weirui is such an existence.
Academic talent, avenue cultivation.
They are all the superiors of the same generation of Confucian scholars.
Originally, the future was ambitious, the gentleman was hopeful, and the female gentleman could be recorded in the history of Confucianism, becoming one of the few existences and remembered by future generations, but what makes people laugh or sigh is that Zhu Weirui happened to be the person who hit the south wall several times every once in a while in the history of the hundred schools.
Yan Jidao, who had been silent, frowned slightly.
This time, Zhu Weirui came to Linlu Academy, but the mountain chief asked her to also serve as Mr. Art for some reason.
In the academy, some people have gradually made complaints and discussions.
It's not that she is not qualified to be the art master of the new students - if even the first class of Confucian scholars are not qualified to teach the art to the new students, then the other ordinary gentlemen will simply be dismissed and return.
What has been complained about in the academy is that the mountain chief actually approved Professor Zhu Weirui's seventh art in addition to the "Confucian Six Arts", which is the calligraphy art she named in her mouth.
Looking at the 72 Academies of Jiuzhou, this is the first time this kind of behavior.
Even if you are Mr. Youlan, who is welcomed by all the men in the academy, you can't mess around with such bad rules.
Suddenly, Yan Jidao seemed to remember something, he got up and went to the house, and took out the homework articles handed in by the disciples in the past.
This has always been corrected by the eldest disciple Li Jinshu before.
Yan Jidao rummaged through it, took out a particularly conspicuous paper roll, opened it, and sure enough, it was signed Zhao Ziyu.
