Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 45 If I get this word, it will go down in history!
If you place a foot-long piece of wood on a high mountain, you can overlook the Qianren Mountain Stream, not because the wood itself is too long, but because it is high enough and supported by the mountains below.

Use the momentum of the mountain to support the wood to gain an advantage.

These words come from the chapter on fame in "Han Feizi". The chapter on fame talks about how to achieve success and become famous. It analyzes and explains the "shi" among the three "magic powers" of Legalism. Taking advantage of the momentum can get twice the result with half the effort.

The sentence written by Chen Zhi was written in official script, but the subtlety in it seemed a bit miraculous to Peng Lin, who was also good at calligraphy.

Each stroke is slender and changeable, rising to the left and rising to the right, as abrupt as a ridge, falling like a string of beads, following each other's thoughts.

Before he knew it, a sentence popped out of Peng Lin's mouth: "If you are walking, you are flying, and you are flying, and you are looking at it like a group of swans and swans, one after another." After finishing speaking, he was startled.

These words come from the "Si Ti Calligraphy" written by Wei Heng, a great calligrapher of this dynasty. The words naturally resonated with everyone's words, and the taste is self-evident.

As a result, Liu Miao and others were stunned on the spot, and then they all used their eyes to wake him up, reminding him of the change in the expressions of the elders - after Peng Lin said one sentence, all the elders looked suddenly enlightened, as if they had figured something out.

Peng Lin didn't care about anything else. He took a few steps forward and looked at it intently.

This look made him notice more mysteries.

These characters all have a sense of returning to nature, as if they are turning from official script to seal script, but Peng Lin knows that this is not the case. He can vaguely see that the writer took into account people's aesthetics when writing and suppressed it. The deeper form is hidden, and the state shown shows some signs of returning to ancient times.

"What kind of font is he trying to cover up?"

Thinking of this, Peng Lin's heart beat faster, his blood felt boiling, and his mouth felt a little bitter. While resisting the person who wrote it, he felt a strong possessive desire for the calligraphy in his heart and wanted to keep it as his own!
"If you can get this calligraphy, copy it day and night, and the day it will be finished is not far away!"

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he broke into a cold sweat.

"Chen Zhi's calligraphy is so outstanding that I am addicted to it. Others are also good at it. No wonder even my grandfather looks like that. His calligraphy is so good that he is indeed arrogant. No, this is not called He was so arrogant that he didn't send an invitation to Chen Zhi and asked him to come with the others. If word got out that he would be laughed at at this dinner! His calligraphy is so good. Compared with him, how can I put my calligraphy on the table? ? They can’t even be compared!”

The ambivalence was swallowing up his thoughts like a poisonous snake, making Peng Lin break out in cold sweat and leaving Liu Miao and others in shock.

Liu Miao and others quickly arrived. Looking at Peng Lin who seemed to be in a daze, they all frowned and looked at the words. Then they were also stunned, and one by one they expressed disbelief. His expression was obviously intimidated by the beauty contained in calligraphy.

"Is this really that ridiculous man's handwriting? Is this Chen Zhi's calligraphy?!"

Because of the huge contrast in cognition, several people almost roared in their hearts.

The girl from the Wang family who was disguising herself as a man covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes shining brightly.

The elders next to them were savoring Wei Heng's words and gradually felt them.

Soon, Taigong Peng couldn't help laughing and said: "So, Chen Zhi already has a deep understanding of Legalist knowledge. We noticed his calligraphy attainments before and ignored his knowledge. And It’s extraordinary to be able to practice it yourself.”

"What?" Peng Lin, Liu Miao and others looked stunned. They were very confused about Peng Taigong's judgment. The comment "very profound knowledge and knowledge" only appeared in Peng Qi's answer today, and it was this talented man. After racking his brains and borrowing the analogy of ancient personnel and affairs, he got it just now, but now Chen Zhi just sent a letter, and he got it easily.

However, they did not dare to doubt the elders' vision, so everyone looked at the calligraphy again and tried their best to taste it, but they could not understand its meaning.

It's just a transcribed Legalist sentence. The same sentence is exactly the same as in the book. Not a word is added or subtracted. How can we see the attainments of Legalist knowledge?
Before the doubts of several people were settled, someone spoke again.

"That's right," Taigong Liu also nodded, and said with a serious face, "Chen Zhi's deep understanding of Legalism's way of 'power' is also ranked among the younger generation. This sentence can be said to be a problem. .”

Peng Lin and others followed the sound and looked over, but still didn't know why. They looked at the word again and thought hard.

What question did you ask?Did you ask him questions before?

Xu Zhi couldn't remain silent anymore and said: "These words are very meaningful in line with what happened today. They are also a good story. It is not in vain for us to borrow books from him." After saying this, Peng Lin and others became even more confused. Well, why is it still a good story?Giving a piece of writing in return may become a good story, but there has to be a reason, right?

"Look at you, the juniors are all confused." Zhang Taigong was still kind. Seeing the looks of Peng Lin and others, he smiled slightly and explained, "Look at this calligraphy, what is it?"

This is a different kind of examination school. If you answer it well, you will undoubtedly gain a lot of favor.

Liu Gang pondered for a moment and replied cautiously: "It is a sentence about the fame of "Han Feizi", and it talks about the principle of taking advantage of the situation."

"Yes, that's the truth," Zhang Taigong smiled and pointed to the other elders, "The words of Wei Shilang just mentioned by the Peng family boy are from "Four Body Calligraphy Movements". It is based on calligraphy. Chen Zhi will calligraphy The potential is displayed, and what is written is the sentence of the Legalists talking about the potential. Is this an answer? The cognition of the 'potential' Tao that Old Man Liu said comes from here!"

"Is this okay?" When Peng Lin and others heard this, their eyes widened one by one, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that it made sense.

Taigong Liu was taken aback for a moment, then stroked his beard lightly, showing an inscrutable smile, but he was also very surprised in his heart, what he meant was just the meaning of a simple sentence, combined with calligraphy, it had a special artistic conception.

Now that Zhang Taigong said this, he compared the few sentences of "Four-body Calligraphy" in his memory and found that they were indeed similar to the Legalist style. In the past, he had never thought of the two together.

Leaving aside the deep meaning of Chen Zhi's reply, if Zhang Taigong's words are true, just combining and discussing two unrelated fields together, and discussing both sides, is a commendable approach at this time.

You must know that a large part of the culture of a hundred schools of thought hopes to use their own ideas to guide the behavior of the country, the monarch, and the people. Some even hope to use their own theories to explain all the truths and mysteries of the world, and to understand the mysteries of human nature. But the things in the world are so vast and unpredictable, how can they all be contained in the evolution of knowledge?Only then did the younger generations continue to supplement, improve and even completely change it.

In today's world, hundreds of schools of thought are resurgent, and Buddhism is gradually emerging. Many great sages are trying to integrate Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism into one. This shows the significance of integrating the principles of different fields into one.

Perhaps for history, this is just a trivial matter, but for those present, it is no small matter.

"How can the merger of two families happen in such a small gathering?" Thinking of this, Taigong Liu couldn't help but get excited even though he was old-fashioned and conservative.

History is composed of countless events. To the people at that time, a small event was a huge event. How many people just left a one-sentence description in a history book, but their name was passed down through the ages?
How big of a temptation is it to leave a name in history?
However, except for Taigong Liu, no one else seemed to have reacted yet.

At this time, Zhang Taigong pointed to Peng Taigong again and said: "Practice what Old Man Peng said is actually a summary. We gave the Legalist books to Chen Zhi to borrow to let him gather momentum, so he responded with this sentence, Otherwise, why would he write this sentence if there are so many words about Legalism? He is comparing himself to wood and regarding us as mountains. With the help of these Legalist books, only by standing on the top of the mountain can we see further. This is Putting gold on the faces of us old guys is also the reason why he returned the gift, Old Man Peng, right?"

When Taigong Peng was asked this question, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. He just saw that he was giving money to himself and others, how could he think so deeply?But when the junior looked at him, he had to smile, chuckle and nod: "Brother Zhang is the one who knows me!" After saying this, Old Man Peng himself was stunned for the first time.

The other old people were smiling easily, but suddenly it seemed like a thunder flashed in their minds, and they all froze in place, savoring a little taste of practicing the principles they had learned from the words.

Implementing the behavior learned is advocated by several prominent schools. As long as it is done properly, there will be almost no problem in spreading it to future generations.When Kong Beihai gave up a pear, it was in line with moral advocacy and has been passed down to this day, which is proof of this.Of course, there is another reason. As Kong Rong himself became famous, the things he did in the past were exaggerated.

Now let’s look at Chen Zhi’s calligraphy. As long as all his calligraphy is not lost, it is almost certain that his calligraphy will be passed down after his death. In this case, how can the interesting anecdotes before he became famous not be exaggerated by future generations?Isn't it the first choice to practice what you know, a highly regarded behavior?
Thinking of this, the well-informed old men finally smelled it, like cats smelling the fishy smell, their eyes changed when they looked at the words, and they wanted to swallow it.

How valuable is this central object of an allusion? !

"If you get this word, you may be able to go into history!"

Xu Zhi muttered to himself.
