Three Kingdoms

Recently, the people in Chang'an have been going crazy with joy. Not only is the Qinglong Temple going to hold a so-called closing ceremony, but they have also heard that the Hussar General is going to reward his generals based on their merits. There are even rumors that there are still prisoners to be sent away. Going to the emperor to sacrifice prisoners is just one wave after another, which makes people unable to stop at all.

The Great Lecture at Qinglong Temple lasted from the end of autumn to the beginning of spring, and was a lively discussion. Many topics were discussed, and many scriptures were discussed. The most attractive ones were the three arguments, one was to seek truth and truth, and the other was that Zhongni was not a saint. , the remaining one is a sentence reading theory that not many people paid attention to at first, but became more and more enthusiastic later on...

Originally, reading is a process from imagination to words, and then from words to imagination. Therefore, in this process, various cognitive biases will appear, just like when someone sees the four characters of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. This word reminds me of the four snow-white thighs of the Japanese style. Some people also think of Gone with the Wind, Les Miserables, etc., all of which are different. This is normal, after all, individual perceptions are different. However, there is the so-called "nothing first" mentality, which makes some people think that what they think is the most correct, and then criticize those who have different ideas, slander and abuse, and do whatever they can to force others to do so. It would be a bit too much to follow your own train of thought.

Before the Han Dynasty, or before sentence reading became popular in history, the interpretation of scriptures was a very skillful matter. Perhaps the same sentence represented seven, eight, or even a dozen meanings. Wherever it is, it is the individual who has the final say, and different schools often arise due to different sentence readings. At one time, when recruiting scholars in the imperial court, they deliberately bribed the examiner to adopt the sentence reading model of a certain school. To increase the number of your own children who pass the exam.

When Cai Yan's theory of sentence reading was first proposed, it did not receive much attention at first. After all, those who could participate in the Qinglong Temple lecture, whether they were participants in the lecture or just observers, all knew at least something. The basic method of sentence reading is to know where to break when reading a sentence. Therefore, the theory of sentence reading is indeed not as shocking as the two arguments of seeking truth and seeking truth, and Zhongni is not holy.

But as time goes by, sentence reading slowly reveals its importance...

As mentioned before, individuals reading the same scripture may have different interpretations due to different readings of sentences. Then when arguing with each other, they suddenly find that the bull's head does not fit the horse's mouth, and then they can't help but review the original meaning. The problem extends to the question of whose sentence reading method is correct.

As more and more things like this happen, everyone realizes how important it is to have a unified standard for reading scriptures. It is even closer to oneself than seeking truth and correctness, and Zhongni Busheng. After all, seeking truth and correctness is Conceptually, Zhongni is not a saint and is far away. Only the sentence reading is related to how one will correctly interpret the scriptures. Therefore, in the later period, we often see some people arguing over how a certain scripture should be read. Got red in the face.

When everyone holds their own opinions, an arbiter is often needed, and Cai Yan, who was the first to propose sentence reading, has become the best arbiter invisibly. When Cai Yan came to attend the Qinglong Temple lecture, he did not have many personal contacts with the disciples from Heluo, Hedong, Taiyuan, Guanzhong, Hanzhong, and a small number of Jingzhou gentry, so they all used It is a more fair attitude and more convincing. The second aspect is that Cai Yan has the library skills he carries. It is not too easy to quote scriptures. Often, if there is a slight sign of dissatisfaction, he will be rejected by all kinds of people. Xiang Jingwen was overwhelmed with examples. Under the erosion of huge data, any resistance was in vain...

And some of the people who were first washed away by Cai Yan's data flow, under the thought of how can I be the only one who suffers, drag one or two backers with me, and drag more people with them? Accept the baptism of Cai Yan’s illustrations...

Slowly, Cai Yan's reputation as a master of sentence reading was accepted by default. Many people simply came to the back and even asked Cai Yan about some of their doubts about the scriptures and asked Cai Yan for correction. Those who originally criticized Cai Yan gradually stopped talking, and then praised Cai Yan for being worthy of being the successor of Cai Yong, for his demeanor and for being the inheritor of Confucian classics.

Many things are like this. They are not favored by others at first, but they inadvertently stir up the situation.

Just like the Qinglong Temple Great Treatise itself.

When Fei Qian said he wanted to hold such a party, not many people took it seriously, and some even thought it was unnecessary. After all, a hussar general could just focus on military warfare. Shenhe Sutra Isn't it just like a singer holding an art exhibition, or a comic reader going to a calligraphy award?

They didn't really get along at all, but Fei Qian, who felt that he was not a good general if he didn't want to be a cook, really managed the Qinglong Temple lecture in a decent way. Even at the end, some people thought The meaning is still not finished.

However, I heard that the Cavalry General said that he would prepare to hold a meeting every four years, which is okay, and there is some hope.

Why four years?

Even before Fei Qian could think of an explanation, many people had already expressed that four years was just right, neither too long nor too short. More importantly, four years coincided with the Four Symbols. As the saying goes, the Four Symbols give rise to all things, and they occur once every four years. It is exactly in line with the meaning of the scriptures to educate all peoples. Some people say that the four years actually represent the four directions, and the four directions are unified into one...

What else could Fei Qian say?

I had to laugh about it and show that what you said was right.

Fei Qian stood on the high platform of the main hall of Qinglong Temple, nodded slightly, and looked around.

Colorful flags were fluttering all around and the sky was blue.

The gentle spring breeze blew, and it seemed to bring a little earthy smell.

This is an era full of hope, this is also an era full of ignorance...

The state-owned Han Dynasty is located in Zhongzhou!

The territory is thousands of miles long, and the sun and moon are here to stay!

Fei Qian recited it loudly, and his voice echoed in all directions from the high platform.

The sound passed through the main hall, passed through the corridor, vibrated in the sky above Longshouyuan, and seemed to vibrate in everyone's heart, making all the thin hairs stand on end!

The gods came to Yaoguang, and the five emperors responded to their requests. Taiyi is bright in the north and south, and the golden crow travels in the east and west. Yao of the Tang Dynasty was in the mountains, and Shun was lying on Yijiu. In ancient times, kindness was passed down, but now it has become an enemy. The river is full of chaos, and when will it stop? They harassed each other and broke the axle! It hurts!

Looking at the eight wastelands and the four seas, fighting against Jiujiang and Dingjing five states. Entering the desert and crossing the weak water, leaving the ghost valley will drive away the bandits. At that time, the world was in chaos, with ragged flesh and bones and coffins. Looking west at Kunlun, I feel trance-like, and looking up to the east, I am worried about the Dan steps. The mountains in the south are wild and straight, but those who return from the north are not given the wind and frost! How sad!

Climb high and gather all the wise men. Be knowledgeable and endure the rudeness. Hearing the sound of Lun, the beautiful voice comes together, and he is knowledgeable and like being taught by grace. Eat the morning glow and enjoy the neon lights, and enjoy the beautiful flowers and silk. With the grand gathering, you can find the way, which can help all generations and relieve thousands of sorrows. Returning to the carriage, I turned around and headed back. The message was endless and unclear. Go out of the narrow confines of the mist, relax your mind and go on a long boat! What a success!

The four rounds of Spring and Autumn are approaching, and singing is a thank you!

Eight desolate years serve as proof, waiting for an encounter!

I am so lucky to be able to ride here with you all, the great Han hussar!

Four years later, I will be here again to hear your sonorous voices and listen to your economical principles!

Fei Qian cupped his hands and bowed to everyone in the audience.

A group of people in the audience, led by Sima Hui and Zheng Xuan, also bowed down and bowed in return...

……??(??︶`)(??︶`)??……

If according to Pang Tong's theory, if a person is happy, what should he do?

Have a good meal!

However, the converse is also true. What should you do if you are unhappy?

It’s also a good meal!

The grand lecture in Qinglong Temple came to an end, and it also announced that Pang Tong's errands had come to a successful conclusion. Pang Tong immediately felt that the burden on his body was much lighter, and he could feel like he was floating when he walked...

In order to stabilize himself, Pang Tong felt that the most important thing was to eat more meat!

Well, regardless of whether the reason was appropriate or not, after Pang Tong followed Fei Qian back to the General's Mansion, he clamored loudly for a barbecue, and he had to bang on the table.

Fei Qian smiled and asked his attendants to prepare the barbecue in the yard. He first took Pang Tong, Xun You, Zaozhi and others to sit in a pavilion nearby.

Sima Hui and Zheng Xuan seemed to have booked the Ping Jue Tower in Chang'an City, and they were also preparing to have some fun. It was enough for Fei Qian to show up at the official ceremony. There was no need to go there to join in the fun.

I am ashamed. I thought at first that the great treatise of Qinglong Temple was nothing more than this...

At first, when Xun You stayed in Chang'an, he felt a little bit like he was being tortured by Fei Qian. But as he stayed for a long time, he got used to it... Well, I understand that Fei Qian's ideas here are obviously better than those in Shandong. A group of people are going to be broader and deeper!

In this world, only those who set standards have the right to speak. The Great Treatise of Qinglong Temple is undoubtedly a standard-setting conference on Chinese scriptures. And such standards will have far-reaching impacts.

The theory of "seeking truth and seeking truth", "Zhongni is not holy", and "Judu" seem to be like three monuments in the palace of literature. They will stand there forever. No one can get around it, unless someone will come up with it next time when there is a big discussion. To refute such a concept and succeed...

However, will anyone refute the three important arguments this time?

Putting aside the question of whether to dare or not, these three arguments are tenable even from a purely academic perspective. Who would say that he studies the scriptures not to seek truth and correctness, but to see if there are any little yellow people or white people? Who would stand up and say that the emperor is a piece of shit and not a saint at all? Who would deny the importance of sentence reading and think that learning the scriptures does not require proficiency in sentence reading?

Regardless of what will happen in the future, whether the entire literature of the Han Dynasty will undergo major changes as a result, Xun You is already very sure of one thing. That is, after this Qinglong Temple lecture, the power of the entire Shanxi gentry academic world, although it is still possible Some cannot keep up with those in Shandong, but the date for reestablishing Chang'an as the cultural center of the Han Dynasty is no longer far away.

Maybe the next Qinglong Temple lecture will do this.

As Western learning rises, Eastern learning will inevitably decline.

Just like when Eastern learning was prosperous and Western learning was decadent.

The key problem is that even if people in Shandong want to be like Fei Qian, they can't make a so-called big talk, because there are still constant disputes in Shandong...

This difference is like eating meat or drinking soup.

If it continues to expand, there may not even be soup. After all, this time, there are not only Pingyang Shoushan Academy in Bingbei, but also Sima Hui, Jingzhou Academicians represented by Pang Tong, and even Zheng Xuan. This is almost the unification of the world in literature!

This is something that those old guys in Yingchuan have been pursuing all their lives. They never thought that it would be possible here in Chang'an, with General Hussar...

Xun You was filled with emotion, but Pang Tong either took it for granted, or perhaps felt that there was no unachievable goal for Fei Qian here, so he didn't seem to have that much emotion, or maybe his body and mind were all looking forward to what would happen after the barbecue. The smell of oil was very fragrant, so I just looked outside the pavilion and didn't have much thought to participate in the discussion.

Zao Zhi smiled and said: I wonder how many of these people will stay?

I'm afraid there are quite a few... Xun You nodded and said, in this case, the housing prices in Chang'an City will probably remain high... It was a sigh of relief. Following the aftermath of this Qinglong Temple discussion, he will make some money.

In the past, when I read the poems about the two capitals, I often thought, which one is more beautiful, Xijing or Tokyo... Zao Zhi said with a smile, from today's perspective, Xijing is even better... What Zao Zhi meant was not simply talking about the scenery.

...On the left there is the fortress of Xiaohan Chongdanger and Peach Forest, decorated with two flowers, giant spirits squatting, palms high and feet far away, with flowing rivers and meanders, traces of which still remain. On the right is the Longdi Pass, which separates Huarong, Qiliang, Qianyong, and Chen Bao's crow... Xun You also nodded and said, it is true... It is much better than Shandong...

Fei Qian laughed twice and said: Everyone, please put aside your external affairs for the time being... A batch of spices were sent from Sichuan some time ago, just in time for today's banquet... These days, pepper and other things are really worth their weight in gold. .

Fei Qian's words struck a chord with Pang Tong, and he immediately clapped his hands in agreement.

Also, after being exhausted for such a long time, I just want to take some time off. If Fei Qian keeps talking about a lot of business, I really won't be able to take it anymore.

The two sheep were placed on top of the bonfire. Under the burning flames, the fat was mixed with spices, creating an indescribable smell that was lingering and mouth-watering.

Fei Qian picked up the wine cup and said: I am lucky to get your help! Come, drink this wine, may you have less worries today, and may you have more joy tomorrow! Drink to win!

Drink to win! Everyone raised their glasses in response.

As the sun sets, the soft and warm sunlight slants into the walls of the courtyard, dyeing everything around it with a slightly warm color...
