Zhenguan's prosperity and fame

Chapter 64 The Study of the Five Rites, Cultural Traditions

"Good! What a punctuation mark!"

After Li Shimin heard the news, he saw Fang Chen's "masterpiece", and immediately began to comment.

"Come here, go and call Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui to Tai Chi Palace!"

Li Shimin couldn't wait to show it to the world, this is the credit of the royal family, even if the reputation of Fangchen can't become the prince, he still has the status of the son of the Duke of Pingyang.

Li Yuan's side was also overjoyed, Fang Chen still has a name!My lover!
Apprentice?Who knew that two hours ago, Li Yuan kept calling him a traitor in his heart!

"Father, you see, is it appropriate for my son to make such an arrangement?"

Li Shimin squinted his eyes and smiled at Li Yuan, he specially invited him to Tai Chi Palace, and let Li Yuan preside over it.

Li Yuan snorted, judging from his eyes, he was very happy.

"Yu'er, I reward you with a Marquis, okay?"

Li Shimin looked at Fang Chen again, and was indescribably pleasing to the eye. This child is simply a "treasure" bestowed to him by the Li family from heaven!
Fang Chen quickly shook his head, "Fang Chen dare not accept it, and he can't. If he can, Fang Chen hopes to ask for a reward for others."

"Oh? Who are you going to replace?" Li Shimin and Li Yuan were extremely curious, and the eldest grandson Wugou's eyes lit up. Could it be that my son has a sweetheart?
Fang Chen thought for a while, and then said: "Fang Chen intends to ask for a reward for the scholars of future generations. Anyone who teaches and educates people and opens a calligraphy school, please reward him."

Several people were stunned at the same time, "Yu'er, what do you mean?"

"Enlighten people's wisdom, open people's hearts!"

Li Shimin frowned slightly, "Then you know."

"Fang Chen knows what His Majesty wants to say. It is not advisable to fool the people. If I am in Tang Dynasty, everyone can read and write, and everyone is like a dragon. Only then can I call it a grand scene for all ages!"

"Okay! Yu'er, based on your words, I will protect you forever!"

This time it was Li Yuan who spoke. Obviously, Fang Chen's actions not only made him see a different little Yu'er, but also made him understand what it means to see the big picture!
Blessed to all generations, should be worshiped by all the people!
However, unlike what Li Shimin and Li Yuan thought, Fang Chen just felt that the popularity of Tang culture was too low.

Li Shimin sighed, "This is difficult, I can only do my best."

It is difficult at this time, because knowledge is always in the hands of a few people. If everyone can read, how can the family survive for so long?

kill it?It's unrealistic, because the Li family relied on these aristocratic families to establish the Tang Dynasty.

But if they don't kill them, they will definitely be the biggest stoppers in this matter.

Looking at Fang Chen twice more, he thought to himself: If my son was a little older, he would be able to relieve my worries.

now?It's better to ask, even if he really has a way, he can't ask, and he dare not ask!
If the trees stand tall in the forest, the wind will destroy them; if they are piled up on the shore, the water will be turbulent;
We must not let Xiao Yu'er be the first bird, but the credit for this punctuation must be given to him.

"Come here, pass on my order, bestow on Fang Chen the title, and pass it on to the next generation as Marquis. Three generations will not be cut down, and serious mistakes will not be punished!"

What is three generations without cutting?Is it a big mistake?
Li Yuan even felt a little lacking, after all, Fang Chen was a prince, so he should be crowned king.

Fang Chen knelt down directly, "Your Majesty, forget it? Fang Chen Fang Chen is still young"

If you can't find an excuse, you can't just say, I'm still a child, so I don't want to enter the court!

Li Yuan and Changsun Wugou couldn't help coughing twice, Liu Sancheng hurriedly ran to stop the servant who was going to deliver the decree.

Fang Chen was right, he was still too young.
"I am ashamed of you!"

After Li Shimin calmed down, he couldn't laugh or cry, this child is really loved.

Fang Chen almost cried in fright, Handed down?Damn, if you go any higher, you will be close to death?Didn’t the bigwigs who made great achievements in ancient times die miserably?
There used to be an idol of Fang Chen who had a tattoo on his back to serve the country loyally, but in the end because he was tabooed by the emperor, he arranged for someone to kill him. Was it wrong?

Although the civil servants of the Song Dynasty were very powerful, they were not so powerful that they could plan to murder a great general of the dynasty. To put it bluntly, Qin Hui was just a knife pushed out by the emperor. He borrowed the knife to kill people, and then destroyed the knife to build a temple for Yue Fei Of.

What does this incident tell us?
That is, people should not be too outstanding, and they must learn to maintain a good relationship with their superiors, so as to ensure that their superiors will not think that they are jealous of you, so they will directly expel you and clean up!

"Guanyin maidservant, take Yu'er back, today I and my father will meet with important ministers."

Changsun Wugou smiled and nodded, "I know."

"Sir, the students are leaving, and someone will bring the dinner. Remember, don't drink."

Fang Chen shouted, and left with his grandson Wugou.

Li Yuan was quite happy when he heard it at first, but when he reached the last sentence, he couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "This traitor!"

Li Shimin grinned, "Father, you don't have to take the kid's jokes seriously, I will let someone arrange delicious food and wine for you."

Li Yuan snorted coldly, "How can the heart of my beloved disciple be compared to that of a rebellious son like you?"

Li Shimin's eyes widened, he clearly heard you say traitor, why did he change again.

Before Liu Sancheng left in the distance, he came to Li Shimin and briefly explained the situation. After hearing this, Li Shimin immediately understood that he had misunderstood, and was extremely happy that his eldest grandson Wugou served Li Yuan for dinner.

"Father, have you already started to forgive my son?"

He didn't dare to ask this sentence, because he knew the result after asking, but after Fang Chen appeared, Li Yuan became much more cheerful.

After Changsun Wuji, Fang Du and others arrived, they were extremely surprised to see the two His Majesties sitting together without arguing.

You know, since Xuanwu Gate, every time Li Yuan saw Li Shimin, he would have a big fight, what happened today?
"It's all here, come here!"

Li Shimin hurriedly greeted them to come closer, and handed them a piece of paper.

Before reading the content, Wei Zheng had a dark expression on his face, and immediately began to taunt: "I don't know whose calligraphy is this, which made His Majesty so happy, and even summoned all the ministers to appreciate it?"

Li Shimin's face darkened in an instant. Damn Wei Heizi, didn't he just say something to you this morning?

Li Yuan laughed loudly, "This is written by my beloved apprentice, you should study hard!"

The next moment, Changsun Wuji's face also turned black, "Your Majesty, this word is not bad, but there are many typos in this scribble, I don't know what I want to appreciate?"

"Okay!" The difference was Du Ruhui, who immediately bowed to him after seeing him.

"Your Majesty, I would like to invite the person who wrote the letter, I have something important to do."

Li Yuan waved his hand, "Is my beloved disciple the one you guys want to see?"

Du Ruhui's eyes were full of excitement, like a pilgrimage, "Such a great talent, I must get acquainted."

Changsun Wuji and the others were very puzzled when they heard this. They glanced at it just now and didn't find anything unusual. Seeing that Du Ruhui didn't seem to be cheating, they picked up the paper again and observed it carefully. After a while, they realized it.

Wei Zheng said seriously: "I should recommend this person to be an official!"

At this moment, Changsun Wuji also remembered who Li Yuan's lover was, and said with a wry smile: "You two should stop joking, can we see that one?"

Fang Xuanling was very surprised, "Why?"

Li Shimin smiled and looked at the shocked faces of these people, he was probably not much better than before, his face was full of pride, this is my prince!

Changsun Wuji saluted Li Yuan and Li Shimin respectfully, "The Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty, where is the Second Highness now?"

Second Highness?Where did the Second Highness come from?Wait, is it Fang Chen who was approached in the palace and was originally the son of Pingyang Duke?Hearing that His Majesty and Empress treated him very generously, the Prince even directly called him Second Brother.

Li Yuan nodded in disbelief, "You are wise."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Yu'er and the queen have returned to Kunning Palace, you won't see them, but I can explain the meaning of this punctuation for you."

With punctuation marks, reading poems in the future will save you the trouble of judging the gaps or the ending of sentences.

Fang and Du sighed in their hearts: "You are born as a unicorn!"

With these punctuation marks, all imperial schools and government schools in the future will save a lot of trouble. Students will no longer have to figure out how the predecessors punctuated sentences, but can directly learn the strength of the predecessors!
In the current Tang Dynasty, there is no method of punctuating sentences. Holding a book in hand, it is full of hand-copied handwriting. You can only rely on assumptions to confirm where each sentence and each word should be written.

Printing rare books is extremely expensive, and can almost be used as a family heirloom, especially the ancient people's thirst for knowledge.

Fang Chen never thought of changing Datang, and even what happened this time was his inadvertent mistake. He is really curious about the Six Arts of Gentlemen!

Although later generations also have interpretations, after all, it is not as detailed as what Li Yuan said. The five rituals alone represent a kind of inheritance that originated from the depths of culture.

The auspicious in the five rituals corresponds to the etiquette of the three ideologies of gods, earth, and ghosts when offering sacrifices
Fierce ceremony: represents all etiquette related to mourning, including natural disasters and man-made disasters. There is a clear mark in "Zhou Li": mourning the country's worries with fierce rituals: mourning death with funeral rituals, mourning evil with barbaric rituals, Mourn disasters with rites of mourning, mourn defeats with rites of worship, and mourn the chaos of bandits with rites of compassion.

Among the remaining guest gifts, military gifts, and caring gifts, the one that made Fang Chen most curious and suited his taste the most was the military gift.

Used for conquest, various military aspects, and military etiquette.

Kneeling is rare in military salutes, and most of them are on one knee. When wearing full body armor, you only need to bow slightly and hold your fists together.

"Da Tang even practiced morning exercises? Interesting!"

On the way back to Kunning Palace, Fang Chen's thoughts were still on the military salute. From this, he realized the demeanor and code of conduct of many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

I thought it was the kind of ordinary people who were soldiers in wartime and did not fight for farming. It seemed that I had underestimated something.

If you can train a team by yourself and compete with these famous Tang Dynasty generals, it will be very interesting!
Thinking of this, Fang Chen couldn't help laughing, making Changsun Wugou somewhat puzzled, pinching his ears angrily.

"Ouch, empress, please be gentle, it's about to fall!"

"Hmph! At such a young age, what do you pretend to be?"
