The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor
Chapter 78: Counterattack Step Two: The Arrival of Master Meng
Master Meng took the scroll presented by Jia Xu, and was very curious about the content of the article, so he quickly opened it to read.
The scroll slowly opened, and the inscription with two words came into view: "The Master said".
Meng Fuzi was overjoyed. Could it be that this article describes the teacher? Just to his liking.
Then, the first sentence of the article made him extremely excited and moved.
"Ancient scholars must have teachers. Teachers, so preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts."
"Okay, that's a good point! Point out the value of being a teacher!" Master Meng said happily: "Why did the old man refuse His Majesty's grace and start an academy? Preaching, receiving vocation, and solving doubts are my wish, and it is also my wish for all the masters in the world. original intention!"
He continued to browse, instantly intoxicated by the article.
"People are not born with knowledge, how can they be free from confusion? If you don't follow the teacher if you are confused, you are confused, and you will never understand..."
"Wow! It's been a long time since the teaching of the teacher has not been passed on! It's hard to want others to be without confusion..."
"The sage said: If three people walk together, there must be my teacher. Therefore, the disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be better than the disciple. There is a sequence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the arts, that's all."
In order to combine history, Xiao Rui slightly changed the article, but what remained unchanged was the essence of Han Yu's article.
Mencius murmured: "Students don't have to be inferior to teachers, and teachers don't have to be better than students. There is a priority in learning the truth, and there is a specialization in art. That's all..."
When he read the emotion, his heartstrings were stirred, and he was so emotional that he could not restrain himself. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he said: "Everyone in the world is ashamed of learning from their teachers. This is a dross and bad habit. The biggest original intention of this old man to study is to change this attitude! Teacher!" If the Tao is established, there will be many good people, and if the teacher teaches the Tao, the etiquette will be promoted! At the level of learning, there should be no noble or cheap, no little and no long, and the sage is far away from others, and he still needs to be a teacher! Why can't the world see through it? ? Can’t see through it?”
"Keep one hand, break the inheritance."
"Fear that the waves behind will overwhelm the waves ahead, this is the dross!"
After being indignant, Mencius praised: "I didn't expect King Xian to have such insights at such a young age. It is commendable."
After finishing speaking, he carefully rolled up the scroll, as if he had found a treasure, and said to Jia Xu: "This article, I will treasure it carefully."
Jia Xu said happily: "If His Highness knew that Master loves him so much, he would definitely be very happy. Unfortunately, he is still in confinement, and His Majesty has not withdrawn his orders. He is also worried about affecting Master's reputation, so he cannot discuss it face to face with Master. This is a pity."
Master Meng nodded. He is also very curious about Xiao Rui now, and wants to meet such a talented person, so he said: "Why should I care about other people's guesses when I do things? Since His Highness can't come to the academy, how about I come to visit tomorrow?"
Jia Xu was overjoyed, stood up and bowed, and said: "On behalf of Your Highness, I would like to thank Master for your attention, and I will wait for you tomorrow!"
"Okay, it's scheduled for tomorrow!" Master Meng laughed.
Afterwards, Jia Xu and Master Meng agreed on a time, and then they left.
After leaving the Reading Academy, Jia Xu got into the carriage.
Wu Zhanfa, who was driving, quickly asked, "Mr. Jia, how is the matter going?"
"His Highness's teacher said it is a sharp weapon, and it will come naturally." Jia Xu smiled and said, "Master Meng will come to visit in person tomorrow. Act according to the previous plan, and we will return home quickly, and I will report to His Highness."
Wu Zhanfa drove back immediately.
Xiao Rui was waiting for the good news in the mansion, and when he saw Jia Xu came back with a smile on his face, he knew that the matter was settled.
"Your Highness, Master Meng will pay a visit tomorrow at Sishi." Jia Xu said.
Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Then we will see the performance of the Inner Court Secretary tomorrow."
"Yeah, they act in their true colors, and they don't even need to act." Jia Xu joked.
Nothing to say all night.
At Sishi the next day, Master Meng arrived as promised.
Xiao Rui walked up to the chariot and horses himself, and helped Master Meng out of the chariot.
Looking at Xiao Rui's appearance of talent, respecting the old and loving the young, his refined demeanor made Master Meng's recognition of him even more affirmative.
"Student Xiao Rui pays homage to Master." Xiao Rui bowed deeply and said respectfully.
Master Meng hurriedly helped Xiao Rui up, and said with a smile: "Old Zhesha, Your Highness is a prince, how can you do such a big gift to a mediocre man?"
Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "No, I respect my master because of the etiquette of junior students, it has nothing to do with status, today only those who are masters are teachers."
"What a good master is a teacher! Then the old man will rely on his age and let him grow up." Master Meng stroked his beard and laughed, looking very happy.
Xiao Rui invited Master Meng to enter the house. Master Meng looked at the simple and unsophisticated house, nodded in approval, and said: "Your Highness lived in a shabby room before opening the mansion. This unsophisticated character is the crown of princes!"
Xiao Rui was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say that he didn't have money to buy a big house, but he couldn't show it on his face, but smiled, so he had to continue to pretend: "If the mountain is not high, there will be a fairy, and if the water is not deep, there will be a dragon." Ling, this is a shabby room, only my virtue! This kind of behavior is learned by students like the master. I think that when the Yuewen Academy was first established, you lived in a thatched hut to teach, and the sound of Lang Lang reading adorned the shabby room, why is it so shabby?"
This flattery made Master Meng laugh heartily, and said: "It's a humble room, but my Dexin, Your Highness has such a mind, and there is no such thing as a humble room. But, after all, he is a prince, and he wants to come to the court. Prepare the Prince's Mansion, which is the official residence that represents the face of the royal family."
Xiao Rui's face was instantly ugly.
This time I showed it thoroughly, just to let Master Meng see it.
Sensing Xiao Rui's embarrassment, Master Meng asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter? Did the old man say something wrong?"
Xiao Rui's face returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "It has nothing to do with Master, don't mention it, don't mention it. Master, please rest in the hall."
Meng Fuzi was curious, but seeing Xiao Rui's reluctance to speak, he didn't ask further.
Xiao Rui asked Master Meng to take the seat, but Master Meng couldn't refuse, so he could only sit at the head, and Xiao Rui sat at the main seat on the east side.
"Your Highness Seventh, is there the full text of the ancient prose you recited just now? After savoring it carefully, it turns out to be indescribably wonderful, not inferior to "Teacher's Talk"!" Meng Fuzi asked eagerly: "Can I let the old man read it?"
Xiao Rui was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that Master Meng was indeed an idiot, and he fell in love with "The Humble Room Ming" again!
"Of course there is the full text, today the student dared to show off in front of the master." Xiao Rui laughed.
Mencius said: "No, no, you have a specialization in your career. You may not be good at annotating scriptures, but you are good at articles, so you don't show off. Like an old man, you are not good at poetry, but you love poetry most. I laughed at the old man for this matter, but the old man just likes it so much, there is no way, haha..."
Xiao Rui also laughed, thinking that this octogenarian is really cute, with a hearty and free-spirited personality.
So, he asked Gao Quan to send him pen, ink, paper and inkstone, as well as the Huanhua paper that Emperor Xia had rewarded him with.
As soon as he picked up his pen, Jia Xu came in to refill his tea.
But Xiao Rui paused because he understood that Jia Xu had other intentions when he came in, and he came to remind him, because Wu Zhanfa's seeker was about to arrive.
Therefore, Xiao Rui quickly picked up a pen, wrote the title of "The Inscription of the Humble Room" in line, and wrote:
"If the mountain is not high, it will be famous if there are immortals. If the water is not deep, there will be dragons. This is a shabby room, but my virtue is sweet. The moss marks are green on the steps, and the grass is green in the curtain. There are great scholars in talking and laughing, and there are no white people in communication."
Meng Fuzi stood aside, watching mesmerizingly.
Sure enough, Wu Zhanfa came to the door and reported: "Report to Your Highness, the Inner Court Department sent someone to see you!"
Xiao Rui stopped writing, and said: "This king is entertaining distinguished guests, let Mr. Jia receive it for me."
"This..." Wu Zhanfa hesitated.
Master Meng hurriedly stopped him, saying: "No, no, the person from the inner court must be Zhao Gaogao, the head of the palm seal. He came to hand over the Prince's residence to His Highness. This is a big event. Meet him first, and we will communicate later!"
"Okay!" Xiao Rui said: "Then invite the people from the Inner Court Department to come in."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Master Meng, and said, "Master, do you still need to avoid it? The students are afraid that it will affect the position of Master."
Master Meng looked at both sides of the living room, and there was no place to evade, so he said: "The people in the inner court department don't know the old man, I'll give you a sentence at the desk, if you talk about yours, it will be considered as evasive. As for the old man's position, it is also It’s not something outsiders can influence with a few casual words, so don’t worry.”
"Then please wait a moment, master." Xiao Rui smiled and waited quietly for the next performance to start.
ps: Please collect it~ The grades are not as good as those recommended by others. It’s because I didn’t write well, hey
There is another chapter at 6:00 p.m., dedicated to the one who worked so hard to build the building last night.
