Mountain Miscellaneous

Chapter 178 Break the boat and sink the boat!

Dong Zhongshu?
Li Changqing was stunned that Dong Zhongshu, who deposed the Confucianism of all schools, claimed to be the last student in front of him!Thinking about it for a while, it is probably because he bound the various schools of thought system to start a Confucian profession and directly worshiped Confucius as his teacher, so he can be called a disciple of a sage!
Although Dong Zhongshu was 2000 years earlier than him, and based on the five elements of yin and yang, he also adopted the theory of Huang and Lao to create a new school of Confucianism, which had a great influence on Chinese civilization, but in terms of seniority, his status as a saint disciple is indeed much higher than that of Dong Zhongshu.

"It's fine if we are of the same generation!", no matter what his seniority is in the system of various schools of thought, Li Changqing will not pretend to be arrogant and show off in front of Dong Zhongshu.

"You are a disciple of a sage, how dare I treat you as your peers?" Dong Zhongshu said respectfully.

"Uh, well, you can do whatever you want! I don't know what my new mission is?"

Since Dong Zhongshu was so persistent, Li Changqing had no choice but to let him ask about other things.

"Master Li, Fusheng has an explanation. I will take you to the imperial garden first, and then I will tell you about the new mission!"

"Yuyuan?"

"A gentleman's six arts are etiquette, music, imperialism, archery, calligraphy, and mathematics. Master Li is already proficient in archery, calligraphy, arithmetic, and music, and the imperial garden is where Confucian disciples practice imperialism!"

"Riding a horse?"

"I know that in Master Li's era, horse riding and driving have been eliminated. In the Royal Garden, apart from the skills of driving a carriage, there will be many surprises!"

Dong Zhongshu took Li Changqing from Mingde Hall through the Jiuqu Corridor, and came to a high white wall with simple black glazed tiles hanging on the top of the wall.

Li Changqing could hear Sisma chirping, crisp bird chirping, and even a fountain-like sound through the wall.

Li Changqing can still understand the sound of horses. After all, in the traditional sense, driving is the skill of riding a horse, but what about the sound of birds and fountains?

Opening the vermilion gate of the imperial garden, a vast green grassland came into view. Some horses were chasing and running on the grassland, and some were quietly eating green grass. At the end of the grassland, there was a huge lake. Like a shining mirror, the lake spews water columns tens of feet high from time to time. In the center of the lake there is a mountain peak, and there are more than a dozen white cranes flying in the air.

"This is Yuyuan?" Li Changqing said in surprise.

"It's different from what you imagined! Yu essentially refers to driving, and driving on horseback is just one of the most well-known types, but anyone who can travel for us can drive him, just like cars, airplanes, etc. that appeared in your era. Rocket!"

Dong Zhongshu seemed to have anticipated Li Changqing's reaction, and explained to Li Changqing in an orderly manner.

"Understood, the one that sprays water and the one that soars on the mountain are all mounts?"

Li Changqing understands what Dong Zhongshu conveyed, that the system of schools of thought is more modern than he imagined.

"Appreciate~"

"Master Li, let's go take a look!"

Dong Zhongshu whistled, and immediately two galloping horses came galloping.

One is snow-white and flawless, as cold as moonlight shining on the snow, and the other is as red as fire, just like a burning flame.

"Let me try……"

In modern society, it is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to ride horses. Li Changqing's knowledge of horse riding is only in writing, and he has never had any incidents.

"Zhaoxue has a gentle temperament, and she has a good relationship with Master Li!"

Bai Ruxue's Zhaoxue horse approached Li Changqing, smelling the smell of Li Changqing's body with his nose, the horse's head actually rubbed against Li Changqing's shoulder, Dong Zhongshu looked at it and laughed.

Li Changqing took the reins of the horse, got on the horse, adjusted his sitting posture, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, jumped out of Zhaoxue, and ran to the lake at the end of the grass. Dong Zhongshu rode a red Chilian and followed closely behind Li Changqing.

At the end of the grassland, Li Changqing finally saw the black shadow in the lake. It turned out to be a giant whale, and a blue figure stood firmly on the giant whale and shook his fan!

Riding a whale?

Flying on that mountain peak were a few white cranes, with white feathers and slender thighs, from time to time there were a few clear chirps, and on the back of the white cranes sat a jade man playing the flute.

"Master Li, when you have time, you can come to the Royal Garden to learn the skills of driving!" Dong Zhongshu whispered in Li Changqing's ear.

"The previous understanding of Yu was too narrow, it is indeed an eye-opener!"

Li Changqing also thought about whether the eagle he had rescued could also be trained as a mount?
Dong Zhongshu just gave Li Changqing a brief introduction to the Royal Garden, and Li Changqing had to learn by himself in the Royal Garden on how to practice the skills of controlling all things.

After the two of them returned to Mingde Hall, Dong Zhongshu became serious, took out two books and handed them to Li Changqing: "Mr. Li, I have mastered the Four Books and Six Classics, and I have some opinions of my own. Please correct me, Master Li!"

"I can't correct anything, I need to learn from others!" Dong Zhongshu is a generation of Confucianism, and Li Changqing dare not say that his attainments in Confucianism have surpassed him.

After quitting the School of Philosophy, Li Changqing already has two more books in his hand, "Three Strategies of Heaven and Man" and "Chunqiu Fanlu".

The night sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was a hazy drizzle.

The whistling sound of the mountain wind in the distance, the beating of the bamboo leaves and wooden boards by the rain nearby, and the sound of the wind and rain are in your ears. It is a great time for reading.

Li Changqing first quickly read "Three Strategies of Heaven and Man" and "Chunqiu Fanlu" to have a general understanding of Dong Zhongshu's thoughts.

Based on "Gongyang Chunqiu", Dong Zhongshu combined the religious view of heaven since the Zhou Dynasty with the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, absorbed the thoughts of Legalism, Taoism, and yin and yang, and established a new ideological system to expound the Six Classics of Confucianism.

From Li Changqing's current point of view, many ideas in it are no longer in line with today's society, but at that time Dong Zhongshu undoubtedly created a new school of Confucianism.

Before he knew it, it was already midnight, Li Changqing closed the book and fell asleep.

weekend.

Meng Yuncheng has more free time, and continues to plant flowers on the mountain, Li Changliang is open on the mountain, Li Changqing is reading on the hill, Tian Guangwen is still waiting outside the small forest.

In the evening, when Meng Yuncheng and Li Changliang went down the mountain, Tian Guangwen was still there.

"Mr. Meng, do you see that this person is guarding Brother Qing outside the woods every day? Is the dean of the Department of Shuimu University and the director of the Institute of Mathematics a very idle position?"

Li Changliang asked Meng Yuncheng with a dog's tail grass in his mouth and a hoe.

"It should be very busy!" Meng Yuncheng knew the importance of Tian Guangwen's two positions better than Li Changliang, so he wondered that Tian Guangwen really had the patience to wait for Li Changqing outside the grove.

Wait until Monday, and all the work will come one after another!

Tian Guangwen's cell phone was almost blown up, and there were many things waiting for him to deal with. Could it be that he just went back in a disheartened manner?

Do not!
Tian Guangwen was cruel and turned off his mobile phone!

It's all over!
