Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 2386 Spread the word through the ages

   Taixing six years, the first month.

  The first rain came suddenly.

Nature likes to tease human beings so much, watching human beings running around in the rain, packing up things, and then making a hehehe sound, rainwater is drifting in the sky unhurriedly, like an old man Painful prostate in middle-aged man.

  As the first spring rain fell, the cultivated fields on the Guanzhong land gradually thawed out, and the cattle were organized to plow the land in batches to prepare for the next wave of planting.

There are also many mountains and forests around Chang'an. Animals in Lishan Mountain and Zhongnan Mountain will roam around the surrounding area, and sometimes they will rush out in a daze. Maybe they are hungry and want to find some food in the human village, but these The unlucky ones often meet more ferocious opponents than them. Even the rough-skinned and thick-skinned wild second senior brother can't handle the overwhelming number of men in Guanzhong. He can only yell "Master" and then reincarnate Reincarnated.

Zhang Zhang was wearing a coir raincoat and was walking in the field. When passing by, the farmers in the field would ask kindly, and even invite Zhang Zhang to sit on their field for a while, telling his mud boy to go home quickly and take it out. The dry biscuits I have reserved to entertain Zhang Zhang...

  Zhang Zhang will inevitably have to repeatedly refuse, and even scold with a straight face, these farmers are considered to give up.

  The farmer's idea is very simple and direct. The benefit to Zhang Zhang is to ask Zhang Zhang...

After all, in the hearts of these farmers, Zhang Zhang is like the envoy of the Stove Lord they offer on the stove, and like the salt bearer of the God of Wind and Rain, who can tell them how to watch the weather, how to repair the land, and how to make things better. How to grow more harvests.

   Such people are not enshrined, should they be enshrined to those officials who have a big belly like a pregnant woman?

The system of Bachelor of Agriculture and Bachelor of Engineering is now relatively close to the common people at the grassroots level. The peasants and women of the Guanzhong Sanfu are combined with each other. The big Han hussar general was very grateful.

  As Zhang Zhang was walking, he suddenly saw a small figure in the small grass pavilion in front of him, couldn't help but smiled, and quickened his pace. The figure inside the small pavilion ran over in the drizzle and saluted Zhang Zhang respectfully.

  During the slack season in winter, people like Zhang Zhang naturally seldom come to the fields, and they haven’t seen each other for more than a month. Zhang Zhang looked at the little guy and felt that the little guy seemed to grow taller.

  Like the seedlings in the field, a rain will make them taller.

  『Would you be able to recite the Liren chapter? Zhang Zhang asked, "Let's recite it and listen..."

  The little guy walked forward with Zhang Zhang, while reciting loudly: "Zi said, benevolence is beauty." If you choose not to be benevolent, how can you know? Confucius said, those who are not benevolent should not be in a long-term contract, nor can they be happy with their strengths. Those who are benevolent are safe and benevolent, those who know benefit from benevolence. The Master said, only the benevolent can be good and evil...'

   The drizzle gradually stopped.

Zhang Zhang walked into the pavilion, shook the rainwater from the coir raincoat on his body, and after listening for a while, he suddenly interrupted the little guy's recitation, and intercepted a sentence from Liren's chapter to ask, "Zi said, there is no trouble, no position, Suffering is established, what is behind it? 』

  The little guy was stuck for a moment, then looked at Zhang Zhang's face with his eyes, and his voice was obviously lower, "Yes...is it "Don't worry about what you don't know, just ask for what you know"?" 』

  Zhang Zhang nodded with a smile.

   The little guy let out a breath.

  『I’m not very familiar yet...I still need to recite it from time to time, so I can’t forget it...』Zhang Zhang said, 『Tell me again, what does this sentence mean? 』

  The little guy hesitated for a moment, "Don't worry about not having a position, but worry about whether you can stand, um... don't worry about not being known, but pursue how you can be known..."

  『Hmm…』 Zhang Zhang nodded slightly, 『It’s not bad, but it’s not all right. The meaning of this sentence is... don't worry about not having a position, but worry about not having the ability to do it. It’s not about worrying that no one knows you, it’s about worrying about how to learn the skills that can make others know you...』

  When Zhang Zhang said this, he didn't look at the little guy, but looked into the distance. It seemed that this sentence was also his own emotion. After a while, Zhang Zhang lowered his head, looked at the little guy and said, "I think... I may not be able to teach you anymore..."

  The little guy was dumbfounded immediately, the expression on his face seemed to be condensed, and then he fell to his knees directly at Zhang Zhang's feet with a thud, "Is there something wrong with the kid, sir... sir..."

  『Haha, silly boy...』 Zhang Zhang stretched out his hand to help the little guy up, 『It’s not your fault, but I’m going to transfer away...』

"why? Why are you leaving? Don't go, sir! The little guy didn't understand, and asked with wide-eyed eyes.

   Zhang Zhang smiled and shook his head.

  The apprentices around Zhang Zhang also laughed and said, "Master is going to Hanzhong to serve as county magistrate!" You won't leave if you say you won't leave? 』

  『…』The little guy burst into tears.

  Zhang Zhang smiled and took the little guy's hand, "There are four seasons in the year, and there is a long harvest in the crops. Is there any unchanging truth in this world?" Now the master is only the head of one place, taking care of the Zhuanghe here, but in the future the master will take care of the growth of the Zhuanghe of the people in a county... Don't you understand the difference? 』

   The little guy froze for a moment, and seemed to understand, but he also seemed to have not fully understood what Zhang Zhang meant.

  Apprentice Zhang Zhang on the side smiled and said: "Silly boy, don't you understand? 』

   The little guy looked at the apprentice in a daze, and then saw the apprentice secretly pointing at Zhang Zhang. After a while, he suddenly realized that he fell to the ground, and his voice trembled with excitement, "Apprentice, apprentice kowtow to the master!" 』

This time, Zhang Zhang didn't stop the little guy, and after waiting for the little guy to kowtow three times and wanted to continue knocking, he stretched out his hand to pull him up, and then took out a handwritten book from his arms, " Master, I don’t have anything good to give you, this is a scripture I copied myself, so I’ll just give it to you...』

  The little guy quickly wiped his hands on his body, and then carefully took the handwritten book. Looking at the official script ink characters on the book that were as heavy as bricks, his body kept shaking with excitement.

  The apprentice also stepped forward, and handed the little guy a cloth bag, "This is a gift from me to you, senior brother... Don't be disgusted, it's the pen and ink I used before, and now I give it to you..."

   The little guy was trembling, and subconsciously took it, and then he wanted to salute again, but was stopped.

  『I just know that you are a child of the big Zhuang family at the head of the village. Can you have a correct name? Zhang Zhang asked.

  Zhang Zhang asked Da Zhuang, and Da Zhuang had no objection to letting his children worship under Zhang Zhang, and even wanted Zhang Zhang to take his son to Hanzhong, but it was obvious that Zhang Zhang was not suitable to take his children with him.

  When Zhang Zhang taught this child, he just did it casually and didn’t intend to do anything. In the process of teaching, he found that this child was really hardworking and smart, and he was a piece of material for reading.

   After all, even in later generations, there are some people who feel sleepy when they pick up a book.

  『Master...I, my family name is Wang...My family...call me the second son, or, or call me...little bastard...' The little guy lowered his head, somewhat embarrassed.

"Aha, hahaha..." Zhang Zhang raised his head and laughed a few times, "It's okay, my father used to call me by my nickname, but now that I'm in school, I should have a correct name... In this way, I will help you Come up with a name, tell your adults about it when you get home, if you want, use this...』

  The little guy quickly bowed down again, "Master, please give me a name!" 』

"Well... you and I met on the side of Tian Mu... If Tian Mu was named after it, it would be a bit big, um, why not just use the word "Miao", Tian Zhong Zhuanghe, born as a seedling..." Zhang Zhang said to Xiao The guy said, "May you one day bear fruit..."

  The little guy, Wang Miao, couldn't help but burst into tears, and kowtowed repeatedly. When he looked up, he realized that Zhang Zhang and the apprentice had already got up and moved forward. The apprentice waved at him, "Wait next time... well, when Master and I go back to Chang'an when we have time, we will come to see you again... remember to endorse..."

  Wang Miao stood up quickly, then suddenly remembered something, hurriedly chased after him, panting and grabbed the corner of Zhang Zhang's clothes, "Master! Master! This...and what else, bacon...」

"Haha," Zhang Zhang touched Wang Miao's head, "Shu Xiu will be sent to your home for the time being... If you wait for the teacher to settle down after a few years... Remember, if the teacher finds out that you are slack, don't worry about it." If you devote yourself to studying, I will not accept your training... Remember, you must study hard, so that you will not be busy all your life... Go back! 』

  …(;Д｀)…

  In the city of Chang'an, within Hushi Mansion.

  Main hall.

   Zheng Xuan sat with a serious look, his aura was strong.

  『The words of dismissing Confucianism are not true. Fei Qian said slowly, "It doesn't mean that Confucians are useless, but the righteousness of Confucianism can be passed down through the ages." The study of classics can distinguish right from wrong, know the truth, and understand benevolence and righteousness. 』

   Zheng Xuan nodded slightly to express his approval.

  『However...It is better to have no books than to believe in books. Zheng Gong might as well ask himself, all kinds of scriptures and annotations, what is said and written in the Han Dynasty, are all the words of the ancient sages, and they are all Confucian secrets? 』

  『It’s like "You can’t be punished by a doctor"...』

  Feiqian's voice is steady and smooth.

  Although the drizzle gradually stopped, some remaining rainwater still fell on the tiled eaves. In front of the court, there were rustling noises in the corridor, as if they were eavesdropping on the conversation between Fei Qian and Zheng Xuan.

  『The Master said, how can I repay virtue? Repay grievances with straightness, and repay virtue with kindness. However, there are many people who intercept the latter sentence today, and their words must be virtuous, and the unknown must be straight. Why? The wishes of the countryside are also the thieves of virtue. It is a crime to be corrupt for an official, but what should you do if you are a thief who learns virtue? 』

"The ancient texts are obscure and difficult to understand, so there are annotations..." Zheng Xuan's voice was also very steady, without any trace of fireworks. If you just listened to his tone, you would think it was just chatting with Fei Qian, but Zheng Xuan's expression was serious, even pale His beard seems to be expressing his stubbornness, "Professors use straightforward explanations for themselves, but the villagers are so stupid, and the way is straightforward, it is difficult to understand its meaning, and even more chaos arises. At this time, it is necessary to use annotations as explanations, and talk more benevolently." Virtue, Fang does not miss the words of the sages. 』

   Fei Qian suddenly smiled, looked at Zheng Xuan and asked, "Let's ask Zheng Gong, are most of Zheng Gong's disciples now?" Or a countryman? 』

   Zheng Xuan froze for a moment, then fell silent.

  A traveler must have the pattern and vision of a traveler.

Of course, Fei Qian can also argue with Zheng Xuan about some things, such as Confucianism's emphasis on benevolence and morality leads to the castration of people's blood, or some inexplicable words to show that he is very smart, but in fact, the more complicated the problem, the more simple it is, otherwise It will inevitably involve a lot, and then argue with each other with red faces and no real results.

  For example, is it meaningful to talk about the development of the times and the changes in the future education system? It will only turn the original problem into more problems, and then it will become more and more crooked, and the endless debate will continue. In future generations, this kind of mistake will only be made by Xiaobai who has just joined the company.

   Discuss the facts and hit the key points.

   Zheng Xuan came to discuss, first of all, he wanted to confirm Fei Qian’s attitude towards Confucian classics. Fei Qian gave a direct response to this point, unambiguously affirming the role of Confucian classics, and then reached an agreement with Zheng Xuan.

  The point of divergence is naturally in the second aspect, that is, the annotations of the scriptures.

  Zheng Xuan thinks that "manual free translation" is needed, while Fei Qian thinks that "machine direct translation" is enough, and Fei Qian uses "Xiangyuan" as an example to illustrate the possible problems that may arise in the process of "manual free translation".

   And Zheng Xuan felt that the villagers could not understand "Robot Turning", which is indeed a problem. It's like some people in later generations simply "machine-translated" a large number of foreign language works to bless their own butts in order to gain fame, making it extremely difficult for many people to read.

  Then Fei Qian stabbed Zheng Xuan's lung tube with one shot...

  Because under Zheng Xuan's sect, there are no so-called "country people" at all!

  Confucius took in a few back then, such as Zilu who was born as a "savage", but most of the disciples under Confucius were not "countrymen", and there were even a few who were from good backgrounds and rich. Yan Hui, who was lauded by later generations for being willing to be poor, a cold steamed bun and a scoop of cold water, actually had 50 mu of land at home...

  When it comes to the big Han, when Zheng Xuan is teaching, the general auditors may be a little "townsman", but those who are really accepted as disciples are not from low backgrounds. Either they are descendants of aristocratic families or the second generation of officials, so Zheng Xuan's reason that the so-called "countrysiders" don't understand "straightforward explanation" is totally untenable.

Ordinary auditors do not even have the qualifications to enter the door, let alone receive direct explanations from Zheng Xuan. "Entering the classroom" is not just talking casually. If you are not qualified, you don't even have the opportunity to ask questions, so let alone It can be said that Zheng Xuan's scriptures have been commented on. Therefore, Zheng Xuan's commentary explains, who is watching?

Seeing Zheng Xuan's silence, Fei Qian just smiled, like a wolf with a big tail, "Duke Zheng came here this time to remind me of something... Nowadays, there are many annotations on scriptures in the world. Either correct it, or bend it, each insists on its own words, making it difficult for people studying in the world to distinguish good from bad. Now Zheng Gong has learned from ancient to modern times and has extensive knowledge. Why not work with Mr. Shui Jing to correct the annotations of various scriptures in order to be upright... I don’t know Zheng Gong, what do you think? 』

  『Correct the annotations of various classics? 』Zheng Xuan's gray beard trembled twice. Facing Fei Qian who came up with new ideas one after another, Zheng Xuan really wanted to say a classic line, but he was a little bit reluctant.

   Fei Qian nodded repeatedly, "Of course, I'm looking for a correct answer." Presumably the ancient sages did not want their writings to be used by Xiaoxiao to deceive the world? 』

Zheng Xuan glanced at Fei Qian slightly, and was obviously not very satisfied with Fei Qian's words of "Xiao Xiao". After all, according to Fei Qian's previous standards, Zheng Xuan himself was also within the scope of this so-called "Xiao Xiao", but Fei Qian's This proposal really moved Zheng Xuan's heart.

   Annotating the scriptures, this is what Zheng Xuan started doing very early on. Zheng Xuan made annotations for "Yi", "Poetry", "Li" and so on, and these annotations also had a great influence on later generations through his teaching.

The reason why Fei Qian didn't go to Zheng Xuan and others to ventilate before making public "Punishment is not a doctor" is also for the next hook to see if they can catch Zheng Xuan and others. After all, Wen Wu is the first. It's always possible to argue, and then isn't Zheng Xuan here?

  『If the old man doesn’t allow it...』Zheng Xuan looked at Fei Qian, and said, 『My lord, let Mr. Shui Jing... preside over this matter? 』

   Fei smiled but did not answer.

Even if Sima Hui doesn't do it, Fei Qian still has a third plan, just like a road show for later generations, hold a large-scale Qinglong Temple road show, and then hold a few debates or something, and you can sell some by the way What kind of product naming rights? If it doesn't work, just put the name of your own spice shop on it...

  After this kind of result similar to "public opinion" comes out, even if Zheng Xuan Sima Hui wants to express some opinions at that time, it is estimated that no one will listen.

   Zheng Xuan suddenly regretted coming to Feiqian...

  Zheng Xuan felt that Fei Qian might be a little late, but he didn't expect Fei Qian to have such a big heart. In the past, the Xiping Stone Classics were just correcting the scriptures, but now even the annotations of the scriptures have to be "corrected"!

   It's like an itch scratched in the right place.

   What's more, Zheng Xuan also knows that if Sima Hui is really asked to "research and correct" the scriptures, will this old guy overturn all the annotations that Zheng Xuan has worked so hard for so many years?

  『Old age is old...』

  『It doesn’t matter, why don’t you plan to be a high-ranking student and take Lu Jin first? ’ Fei Qian laughed, “It’s enough to have Zheng Gong’s outline and leadership... Zheng Gong can be the leader in commenting on the scriptures, and Mr. Shui Jing can be the assistant leader...”

   Fei Qian's original plan was whoever would come first, that is, whoever would be encouraged to be the leader first. Who told the old fox to stay in the hole for a while?

  『…』 Zheng Xuan pondered for a moment, “If Mr. Shui Jing doesn’t want to…”

  『Does Zheng Gong know that this will offer the captives of the Western Qiang to Xu? ’ Fei Qian said meaningfully, ‘At that time, I will present to Your Majesty and announce to the world that Cai’s collection of books will be reopened, so as to invite great Confucian scholars from all over the world to Qinglong Temple in Chang’an to study and annotate the classics! 』

  Zheng Xuan took a breath, a question hovered around his mouth, and then disappeared without mentioning it.

  In today's world, if the book collection is the first, it is Fei Qian.

After all, Cai's books are now under the name of Fei Qian, and I heard that most of the books on Dongguan were also collected by Fei Qian. It's just that Fei Qian never admits this matter, and he always expresses those books to the outside world. They were all burned up by the Hangu Order at that time...

Therefore, if Fei Qian invites great Confucian scholars from all over the world in the name of opening these books, even if the emperor Liu Xie wants to fight, he may not be able to win over Fei Qian. private books…

  As for Xu County, hehe, apart from people from Yingchuan being able to add a little to the number of royal libraries, what other books are there to speak of?

  Zheng Xuan looked at Fei Qian, looked left, looked right, although he said that he was somewhat unhappy, but he always felt that Fei Qian had planned to transport books from Luoyang Dongguan back then? If this is the case, this kind of thought is deep, if I don't obey, I'm afraid there will be some tricks to use?

  『Forget it, just follow the lord’s will...』 Zheng Xuan sighed, then touched his old waist, and sighed slightly, 『My lord’s strategic planning skills are really incomparable...』

  Fei Qian stroked his palms and said, "Gong Zheng's praise... When congratulating Mr. Zheng, his name has been passed down through the ages, and he has made great contributions..."
