Chapter 22: Incomparable

"Boom!"

A voice sounded outside Sima Guang's study. "Come in!" a figure walked in, its gaze falling on the desk.

"Take it if you want to see it. ”

"Yes, father. Sima Kanglian picked up Cheng Yi's "Annotations on the Analects" and read it.

"Liu Qin doesn't have any articles on weekdays, but this style is extraordinary. Sima Guang read the opening chapter of the 'Analects Preface' at a glance, and turned to the 'Learning and First' chapter, his expression became focused, and he saw that the book read: "This is the first article of the book, so the meaning of the book is the door to the Tao, the foundation of virtue, and the priority of scholars." ”

Sima Guang's eyes lit up.

"The door to the Tao, the foundation of virtue, this Liu Qin ......"

Sima Guang's heartbeat accelerated a little, such a sentence of enlightenment is not in Cheng Yi's version, but this sentence is extremely important for post-enlightenment learning and textbooks, and it makes the whole book more natural.

Just this sentence, compared with Cheng Yi's, he always feels that he is in a hurry and not confident enough.

"The Lord of Yuqing Jing Zhai is really not to be underestimated. ”

Sima Guang's heart was heavy, he even looked down, the next step in this book is to formally annotate the sentences in the "Analects", the annotation of the first sentence is no different from Cheng Yi's version, almost making people think that the two books are from the same person, but after the annotation of this sentence, Liu Qin said in the editor's tone, this sentence can also be interpreted as his intention, because its interpretation does not conform to the meaning of the sage, so it is omitted.

"Is there any other explanation?" Sima Guang frowned slightly, "Can this Liu Qin really think of other explanations, or is it just a fog?" Sima Guang put down the doubts in his heart and looked at it carefully, when he looked at the eighteenth line, Sima Guang's eyes changed again.

"I didn't expect that to be explained here. It is also not written in Cheng Yi's book. Sima Guang continued to look.

"How she did this precept and righteousness is so complicated and delicate, so delicate, that it can't be done without ten years of work, this ...... This is really ......" Sima Guang's eyes shone more and more brightly, and after a long time, he put down the book.

"Father. Mr. Yi Chuan's writing is really wonderful!" Sima Kang also put down Cheng Yi's version of the "Annotations on the Analects" in his hand.

"Wonderful?"

Sima Guang's face was calm, Cheng Yi's annotation to the "Analects" really made people can't help but dance at a glance, and applauded, but there is no Liu Qin version, read Liu Qin's version, Cheng Yi's version is extensive, or the in-depth explanation of certain words, or the most time-consuming exegesis, righteousness. Even the overall meaning is too much worse.

"Father, how is her?"

Sima Guang sighed slightly in his heart and pushed the book in his hand. Sima Kanglian took it and looked at it, and after a long time, he put down the book with a shocked face.

"Father, how could this Liu Qin be?" Sima Kang's eyes were full of puzzlement.

"The sky will change, and there will be demons. Sima Guang sighed and said, "Liu Qin, I understand." She was originally an honest person who was decent in learning, and her knowledge. In my opinion, it is not as far away as Uncle Zheng, but this time...... , I have an idea, she listed Qin Xianhao in the author column of this book, obviously she can write so smoothly and transparently. Qin Xianhao, who spoke absurdly and weirdly, and even seemed to outsiders to be full of nonsense, helped her a lot. ”

"Father, what do you mean?"

"In the past years, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were full of flowers. How many sages have come out? Now it can be counted on a finger, and this kind of scene of a hundred flowers blooming and sages coming out has not appeared for thousands of years. Sima Guang said in a deep voice, "The Yellow River has been clear for 500 years, and there has been a saint in this world for 500 years, so what about a thousand years......? I thought we were at the top of our generation. ”

"Everything in the world is prosperous and declining, after our generation, the remaining sons are like you, such as the four scholars of Sumen, such as the young people under Wang Anshi, although it is not bad, but I always feel that it is a little bit worse. ”

"Now it seems ......," Sima Guang said, and said without further words.

Sima Kang is also an extremely delicate person, he said with a calm face: "Father is saying that we seem to be shining, but it is likely to be just a transition, just to set off the green leaves of flowers?"

At this time, many people in the cultural circles such as Wang Gong, Shen Kuo, Li Kefei, Zhao Tingzhi, etc., got any dynasty, and they were able to shine through the ages and hold the bull's ears in the academic world at that time. But they were born in the wrong dynasty, and under the reflection of Wang Anshi, Ouyang Xiu, Sima Guang, Cheng Yi, Su Shi and others, they have completely become the stars that set off these great figures like the bright moon.

"Whether it is a green leaf or not, it depends on the chance, but also your own efforts. Sima Guang sighed in a deep voice, "Kang'er, no matter what, in this game, Liu Qin is temporarily ahead, but who can say clearly, she will always be ahead, compared with Uncle Zheng, she can get too little, too little!"

"Although it is few, if the rest of the "Notes on the Four Books and Chapters and Sentences" are like ......this" Sima Kang shook his head in his heart, Sima Guang also knew what he thought, he smiled slightly: "Kang'er, these two books are worth reading, especially Liu Qin's one, you can take it and copy it." ”

"Yes!" Sima Kang copied the book with peace of mind.

Sima Guang crossed a few laps in the room, then sat down at the desk, grinding ink and laying paper.

"Uncle Zheng......" Sima Guang wrote.

At this moment, Ikawa Academy.

"Wrong!"

"There must be a mistake, the publication of these two books is the responsibility of Shen Ji Books and New Youth Daily, they must be mistaken. ”

"Yes, find Senior Brother Yang and Senior Brother You!" Many people who had read two books and knew that Liu Qin's version was above the level of their own teacher's version were filled with righteous indignation and rushed to a courtyard.

"What are you guys doing?" At the gate of the courtyard, You Xing walked out and scolded.

"Uncle You, have you read those two books?"

"Senior Brother You, have you read Liu Qin's version?" shouted one by one.

"See, so what?"

"That Liu Qin's version is very much in line with the essence of He I Luoxue, and it is many times higher than the teacher's book in terms of the exposition of righteousness, and we all suspect that someone is playing ghosts. ”

"It must have been a mistake by the copyist and printer of the newspaper to make the teacher's manuscript paper Liu Qin's, and Liu Qin's to become the teacher's. ”

"Senior Brother You, the person in charge of copying the book is simply blind. How could that unsightly version be written by a teacher?"

......

One by one, they shouted.

You Xing's face was extremely ugly, and he didn't fail to read the two versions of the "Commentary on the Analects", so there was any mistake, but how to answer this? Could it be that which one, do you think that the one is extremely bad, it was really written by our teacher?

"Junior brothers, junior nephews!"

Yang Shi appeared at the door. As soon as he opened his mouth, the voice came clearly into everyone's ears, and suddenly they all quieted down, and Yang Shi, the second generation of Yichuan Academy, had the highest prestige.

"I have already read these two versions of the Analects. Yang Shi smiled and said, "Very good, both versions are very good, each has its own strengths." ”

"Uh......"

Where do you see that each has its own strengths, and the gap is obvious.

Yang Shi smiled and said: "Although one of the versions seems to be superior, the other version is actually not so bad. It's just that the comparison makes you feel too bad. ”

"Senior Brother Yang, what do you mean by that?" one of them asked.

"These two books and newspapers and Shen Ji Bookstore are not mistaken, you must not make trouble for no reason. Yang Shi said in a deep voice.

"Ahh

There was silence all around!

After that, the faces of many scholars were difficult to look at, especially some of them who had read the two editions of the Analects in their entirety.

"Senior Brother Yang, are you sure so?"

"Senior Brother Yang, don't you want outsiders to see the jokes, so you are ready to calm things down? In fact, there is nothing to be afraid of. We can't afford to be dumb and lose because we're afraid ......that people will say we're scheming," some scholars said.

"Nonsense!" Yang Shi's face sank, "This matter is so important. Regarding the reputation of the teacher, can I be wronged and seek satisfaction? Don't retreat!" After retiring from the scholars, Yang Shi's face was a little unpleasant.

"Senior brother, let's go find the teacher!"

"Hmm. ”

......

At this moment, Cheng Yi was at home, Lu Dalin and Xie Liangzuo walked into Cheng Yi's study.

Cheng Yi looked at the book leisurely, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he put the book aside. He smiled and asked, "How much worse?"

"Teacher, do you know?" Lu Dalin shouted, glancing at Xie Liangzuo again, after reading the book, the two of them were afraid to see Cheng Yi, just for fear that Cheng Yi would be hit hard. After all, Cheng Yi is old.

"What do you know?" Cheng Yi smiled, and wondered in his heart, why weren't his two disciples so happy when they came this time, could it be that Liu Qin's book was not much different from the level he had released?

"Xiandao, are the two versions not far apart?" Cheng Yi looked at Xie Liangzuo.

"It's not big. Xie Liangzuo said, groaning slightly, "Teacher, have you seen Liu Qin's version?"

"They said they didn't buy it, so they didn't look at it. Cheng Yi smiled, "Did you two bring books, bring them out." ”

Xie Liangzuo frowned slightly, and understood, it must be that Cheng Yi's family didn't know how to let the old man know the truth, so they deduced that they didn't buy the book. "Teacher, the book is here, but Liu Qin's writing seems to be a little better than the teacher's. Xie Liangzuo said as he took out a book from his body and handed it respectfully with both hands.

Cheng Yi's hand stiffened when he received the book, and the smile on his face stopped.

"What did you say?"

"Teacher, Liu Qin's writing seems to be better than ours. Lu Dalin also said slowly.

Cheng Yi's hand stopped in mid-air for two breaths before reaching out and taking the book in Xie Liangzuo's hand, and said with a smile: "Really, then I want to see if she can really surpass me?" He slowly turned the page, his hand trembling slightly.

Lu Dalin and Xie Liangzuo glanced at each other, and their brows furrowed.

Cheng Yi finished reading the preface and smiled slightly: "It's not good, at least this preface may not be better than mine." ”

"In terms of preface, it is natural that the teacher is skilled. Lu Dalin said slowly. Cheng Yi ignored the two of them, looked back at himself, and suddenly his brows furrowed, and then slowly turned the pages and pages, and this brow was locked until the last page was turned, Cheng Yi's eyes fell on the book, and he seemed to freeze.

The Qin Dynasty copied Zhu Xi's version of the "Annotations on the Analects", and this version has a great feature, that is, it is mainly based on Cheng's learning, which refers to the learning of Cheng Yi and Cheng Hao.

Zhu Xi's teacher Li Tong, worshiped Yang Shi, and Yang Shi's disciple Luo Congyan as his teacher, that is to say, Li Tong is Cheng Yi's second disciple, Zhu Xi is a third disciple, which has passed through Yang Shi, Luo Congyan, Li Tong These generations, the formation of Zhu Cheng Lixue, based on Cheng Yi, Cheng Hao, and higher than Cheng Yi, Cheng Hao.

In addition, Zhu Xi wrote the "Annotations on the Collection of Chapters and Sentences of the Four Books", of which the "Annotations on the Analects" is a classic work that he finally wrote after more than 40 years of careful "understanding" and "verbatim".

After the book was written, there were three major characteristics, in addition to the first point, it was mainly based on Cheng's learning, and it also adopted the theory of the times. The second point is to inherit, increase and change the ancient notes of the Han and Tang dynasties. The third point is to seek reason through the scriptures, focusing not only on exploring the original meaning of the scriptures, but also on the elaboration of righteousness, so as to fuse exegesis and righteousness into one furnace, avoid the penetration and attachment of scriptures, and make the righteousness of its exposition based on the interpretation of the scriptures.

Four generations of talented scholars, coupled with Zhu Xi's more than 40 years of word-by-word dedication, have created the most influential classic in the history of the Analects.

And how long did Cheng Yi write "Annotations to the Analects......" in order to attack Liu Qin?
