Saint of the Confucian way

"Ah? It's only two years to delay the entrance examination? It's not much different from no punishment. You're so young, even if you delay it for five years, it's nothing." Fang Daniao wondered.

"Two years is enough time for many variables to happen. If Zuo Xiang visits privately, it doesn't hurt if I don't return the gift, but if he leads private soldiers to visit openly, the gift must be returned. Did he give a generous gift?" Fang Yun said.

Daniel Fang said, "yes, I sent a pair of blood jade carp. It's just like a real red carp."

"Sure enough, this gift has to be returned. Go home first."

"Yes, sir. There are suddenly more invitations in the afternoon today. Several other ladies in the house gathered in our house in the afternoon and always boasted about how great the master is. They laughed their wives out of their mouths, and even Nu Nu was very happy." Daniel Fang went to pull the reins of the horse and let the carriage stop steadily.

"HMM." Fang Yun got out of the car, a white shadow came out, and the little meteor slowly followed out and circled around Fang Yun.

Fang Yun walked into the room with the slave, chatted with Yang Yuhuan, and asked Zuo Xiang what had happened. It turned out that Zuo Xiang first said congratulations and compliments Fang Yun, and then said there was something to discuss. He didn't tell Yang Yuhuan what happened.

Sitting in his chair, Fang Yun didn't move the table full of worship invitations, but thought about Zuo Xiang's intention.

"The pilgrimage meeting was suspended because of my extravagance, and then Zuo Xiang came to the door. It's unknown whether it's true or false. Liu Shan is not alone. There are miscellaneous families and saints behind him. I've been like water and fire with him. What's his intention for this visit?"

Fang Yun thought for a long time and thought about many possibilities. Finally, after removing the possibility of "reconciliation", he found that all the possibilities were not good, but mostly harmful.

"The arrow that bows without turning back has long been chosen, so we must follow this path. Any hesitation will have unpredictable consequences. The contradiction between the miscellaneous family and me is essentially involved in the struggle of the holy way. The struggle of the holy way is more cruel than the commercial war, military struggle and political struggle. If there is a slight problem at the critical moment, it is the death of the holy way. So many aristocratic families are pinned on me, and the military of Jingguo Both the Academy of Arts and the Department of liberal arts think I am my own person. If I have a slight change, I will be completely isolated. "

"What's more, the road chosen by miscellaneous scholars has been proved impossible by countless forces of later generations. We must get rid of the relationship with Zuo Xiang!"

"No matter what Zuo Xiang wants to talk to me, I can't talk. But when Zuo Xiang and a great scholar visit in person, this ceremony must be returned."

Fang Yun thought of the most acute contradiction in Shengyuan continent, the dispute between rites and law.

The source of legalism can directly follow Guan Zhong, but Guan Zhong's inheritance was interrupted, and then Confucius was canonized. It was not until the emergence of Xunzi and Li Zhen and their disciples that legalism thought gradually improved.

However, the successors of Xunzi and Li Zhe are actually Confucius, so later Legalists recognize that law originates from "ritual". However, with the development of human race, the role of "law" is becoming more and more important, which makes Legalists have higher demands and want to improve the status of law and be on the same level with "ritual".

This is an unacceptable fact for others, but Fang Yun is not opposed. After all, a sound society ruled by law can obviously promote human development.

However, the concept of ceremony is too broad, involving heaven and earth. It plays a vital role in Shengyuan continent, and its status is still unshakable.

Even now Fang Yun can be regarded as the first person of the younger generation. He has made great contributions. Just because Yang Yuhuan is more important than the women of the holy family, he angered a group of old scholars and has been excluded by the "ritual hall" of the holy Academy.

After figuring everything out, Fang Yun went to talk with Yang Yuhuan and found some gift boxes equivalent to blood jade carp.

After that, Fang Yun picked up a few pages of the summary of the Korean meeting to read.

All serving officials of grade five or above and retired officials of grade three or above can get a paper summary of today's court meeting in the capital, and a leaflet outside the capital.

The big court meeting is usually held on March, June and September every ten days, while the small court meeting is irregular. If there is a major event, an emergency court meeting will be held.

Fang Yun looked at the summary of today's emergency court meeting. At the beginning, the court meeting determined some appointments, dismissals, appropriations, transfers, policies, etc., and later excerpted the ministers' discussion on how to reward him, but it was interrupted due to hype and renegotiated tomorrow.

The next morning, Fang Yun sent Fang Daniu out to inquire.

Soon after, Fang Daniu came back to report.

"Master, Zuo Xiang has gone to the jade warm Pavilion. I'm afraid he has gone to the court with all the ministers at this time."

"Well, let's go. Take your gifts to the Zuo prime minister's house."

"Ah? Yes!"

Daniel Fang looked confused and hurried to prepare the car.

The morning breeze in September was cool. Fang Yun sat on the carriage and looked out of the window quietly.

Not long after, the Fang family's carriage stopped in front of the Zuo prime minister's house. Fang Daniu put the gift box on the car, took Fang Yun's worship note and knocked on the door.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

The tin door ring on the animal's face knocked on the vermilion door and made a clear sound.

One side of the door opened and a middle-aged man appeared, dressed in dark blue children's clothes.

Without waiting for the middle-aged man to speak, Fang Daniu bowed slightly and said, "shengqian raised his people, the cabinet walked, and Wenhou Fangyun came to visit Lord Zuo Xiang." then he handed out the worship note.

The porter's face remained unchanged. He took the prayer note with both hands, looked carefully, looked at Fang Yun standing under the steps in front of the door, bent over and saluted: "I've seen Lord Wenhou. Lord Zuo Xiang is going up. Please come in and wait."

Fang Yun said, "since Lord Zuo Xiang is not at home, I'll come back another day." Fang Yun turned and entered the carriage cleanly.

Liu's Porter, Fang Daniu and the coachman looked at the shaking curtain and were stunned. It was too straightforward.

"Give me a gift," Fang Yun said.

"Oh? Yes!" Daniel Fang hurried a few steps, picked up the gift box, ran back to the door and handed it to the porter.

"Get on the bus and go home," Fang Yun said.

As soon as the coachman saw that there was a problem, without saying a word, he immediately rushed to the car, and Fang daniou hurriedly jumped into the car.

After driving for a long time, Fang Daniu reacted and whispered: "the reader's mind is more. He deliberately visited Zuo Xiang when he was not at home. It doesn't matter if he didn't see him. Anyway, when the person arrived, he returned."

After Fang Yun returned home, he officially went to the school palace to report, received all kinds of necessities for freshmen, and then returned to the first house.

Fang Yun accepted Qiao juze's suggestion and didn't deliberately aim at the ten national comparisons. He should study for the Jinshi examination. There are less than three months left for the Jinshi examination. Whether he can become the first member is very important, and whether he can become the first member in the palace examination is the top priority.

It is the most important point that the top scholar can get the level of success that only a bachelor can have in advance. There is almost no comparison between the level of Jinshi or Hanlin.

Fang Yunxian is the teaching guide for the speed reading class.

The ten countries have long had a relatively perfect education system, and although the main course content is all saints' classics, the teaching materials are all kinds of books such as biography, annotation and sparse. These explanatory teaching materials are the bridge between students and all saints' classics.

Fang Yun carefully read the teaching guide and found that this thing is similar to the teacher's teaching objectives and examination sites. In the past, he would not pay attention to this thing, but with the improvement of the position of the text, his horizons have increased, and he realized that this thing is very important.

The most basic application of the teaching guide is to know what the internal examination of the school palace takes. Many students can see it, but Fang Yun sees it at a glance. This is the teaching guide and the context of the holy way!

Because those who can compile the school palace teaching materials are at least great scholars, and the bachelor is not qualified to intervene in the teaching materials at this level.

If a great Confucian has a deep understanding of what part of Taoism is, the content of his textbook will naturally focus on it.

The holy way is so great that Fang Yun knows that he is not qualified to touch it. At least he needs to become a bachelor. But everything he knows and learns is preparing for touching the holy way in the future. They are cornerstones of different sizes.

Whether you can touch the holy way depends not on the last hand of the holy way, but on the cornerstones under your feet.

However, direction and method of the stacking cornerstone are very important.

What to learn is very important.

After reading the teaching guide, Fang Yun quickly read through all the teaching materials. After reading, the same books appeared in the world of strange books.

Fang Yun closed his eyes and sat down. The first three volumes of the spring and autumn Zuo Zhuan justice appeared in front of him.

The spring and Autumn Annals is a historical book compiled by Confucius. Because it was compiled by saints, it is called "Jing" or "dian". The Zuo Zhuan, the biography of Zuo Shi in the spring and Autumn Annals, is a historical book that supplements and expands the spring and Autumn Annals. Later, Du Yu of the Jin Dynasty interpreted the Zuo Zhuan and formed a set of collection and interpretation of the biography of Zuo Shi in the spring and Autumn Annals. This interpretation is a note.

Later, Jiang Hechuan, the literary Minister of the state of Jing, explained the collection and interpretation of the classics of the Zuo family in the spring and Autumn period, forming the justice of the Zuo family in the spring and Autumn period. The style of this interpretation "note" is called sparse, and justice is a kind of sparse.

Fang Yun looked at the Zuo Zhuan justice of the spring and Autumn period with some envy. Once he was qualified to write "Shu", he touched the holy Tao. If he could directly write, preach, annotate or interpret the holy classics, it would be the highest state of great Confucianism, Wenzong.

Once you establish your own holy way and write "scriptures" or "scriptures", you will become holy.

If you can't write a "Sutra" or "code", you can't be canonized all your life.

Although Zuozhuan is a supplement and annotation to the spring and Autumn Annals, it is also a "classic".

Fang Yun accidentally said Zhu Xi's famous saying "change if you have something, and encourage if you don't", which is actually an annotation of the sentences in the Analects. Zhu Xi's understanding of the Analects is very deep, so it will form the voice of the holy way and finally form the vision of a fish leaping over the dragon's gate.

In the realm of great Confucianism, if the war poetry is strong and better, and the war poetry is not strong, as long as you read your notes on the holy classics and show the power of the holy Tao, you can compete with the demons at the same level.

However, the classics of all saints and the power of the holy way are more "strong" than "fierce". Even the military art of strategists is "seeking" and "killing" second. Therefore, the Terran needs war poetry to make up for the defects of the holy way in this regard.

Subsequently, Fang Yun began to read the justice of the Zuo Zhuan in the spring and Autumn Period carefully, and then drew the key parts in cooperation with the teaching guide. After a little analysis, he could find that Jiang Hechuan was proficient in the holy way, while Fang Yun immediately gave up the unimportant parts and repeatedly tasted the important parts.

At this time, Fang Yun no longer studied for the exam, but for the holy way and the cornerstone under his feet.
