Chapter 10 The Three Character Classic(1/2)

"Li Min, do you want to intercede on behalf of Princess Jinyang?" The old master raised his eyebrows and said angrily. No one dared to interrupt him to punish the students, not even the Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. Because he was good at it.

Confucianism and Law represent the entire Confucianism, and even the emperor, who represents imperial power, would not dare to test the law easily.

"Si Zi is indeed wrong, but the Master is also wrong!" Li Min remained calm in the face of the Old Master's anger. Originally, he was still worrying about how to save Si Zi, but suddenly he heard the old Master's words that gave him an idea.

For a flash, he immediately had a suspicion in his heart, and then he shouted loudly.

"Oh?" The old master laughed angrily, pointed at Li Min and said angrily, "Then tell me, where did I go wrong?"

"Master, if what I say is right, can Si Zi be exempted from punishment?" Li Min bowed deeply.

"Okay~Okay~Okay~! I promise you that if what you say is reasonable, Princess Jinyang can be exempted from punishment!" The old master was trembling with anger. In his opinion, this Liang Wang who was thrown into a cripple didn't even know the words.

A few of them, if they could tell some great truth, would it really be a ghost?

"Master, you really understand the righteousness!" Li Min praised with a slight smile, but this provoked a cold snort from Master Kong.

"Just now Master said, 'A Thousand-Character Essay is the foundation of elementary education. It is as plain as words, easy to recite and remember.' This sentence is correct." Li Min cleared his throat and then said slowly, "But the mistake lies in this sentence.

It was right for me or other students here, but for Sizi, who is only three years old, it was completely wrong."

Li Min's face turned pale when he said this, and he continued with a solemn expression: "Si Zi is only three years old. Both his writing foundation and understanding ability are much worse than the six-year-old children required for admission. In addition, he has a thousand-character essay.

Although the writing is beautiful and the vocabulary is gorgeous, it is an enlightenment book for young children, but the literary talent itself is brilliant. It is difficult for even a six-year-old child to understand, let alone a three-year-old girl like Sizi. So I was shocked to think that the Master should teach me now.

It is wrong for Sizi to learn the Thousand-Character Classic!"

"Hmph~! You...you are simply arrogant! The Thousand-Character Essay was written by Zhou Xingsi, a great scholar in the Southern Dynasty. His prose is thoughtfully and skillfully constructed, rich in knowledge, and has beautiful phonology. It is most suitable for children to memorize. How can I allow you to speak like this?

The child is wantonly slandering me?" The old master was so angry that he was stimulated by Li Min's arrogant words. He became so angry that he no longer cared about Li Min's identity, and even used the title of yellow-mouthed child. The little brats around him, including Li Zhi, all

They were stunned by Li Min's words. This was the first time since they started school that they saw someone who dared to challenge the master head-on. This made people admire them, and they couldn't help but admire Li Min when they looked at him.

"Elaborate thinking and craftsmanship are good, but the richness of knowledge is not necessarily good. The rhyme and rhyme are good, but it is better to memorize it..." When Li Min said the last story, he glanced at the old master, and others could understand the following words even if he didn't say it.

"Well, you ignorant kid, if you can find a better elementary school textbook than a thousand-character essay, I will resign immediately and return to my hometown!" Old Master Kong said through gritted teeth. He would like to take a look at this being.

What tricks could the King of Liang pull off after falling into a cripple?

"Master, what you said is serious. The student here happened to have just written a new "Three Character Classic". Although it cannot be said to be better than the Thousand-Character Classic, it is short, concise, catchy, and the content is simple, simple and easy to understand. Although the literary talent is not as good as the Thousand-Character Classic, it is indeed better than the Thousand-Character Classic."

It is more suitable for young children like Sizi." Although the Thousand-Character Classic is a classic, when it comes to the most influential and representative book among elementary school textbooks, the "Three Character Classic" is the first to be recommended. Later generations call it "the crown of elementary school textbooks".

So Li Min's words were not made up by him out of thin air.

As for shamelessly placing the author of the Three Character Classic on himself, Li Min also has his own plan. He now needs to use a new look to wash away Li Min's original bad reputation, change the world's view of him, and most importantly, change his

The emperor's father had an impression of him, and tried to seal himself to a good place, and then he could eat and die without any worries. Being famous for his literature is undoubtedly the best way, which is fast and convenient, anyway.

I have memorized a lot of classical poems. Wouldn’t it be a waste not to use them?

Poof~! The old master almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked at Li Min and wanted to slap him to death. I thought he would come up with some great scholar's work, but I didn't expect that it was written by himself. With your kind of bad words

How can a guy who doesn't even recognize the whole thing write anything good, and he even boasts about naming it after the "Classic"? The only classics that can be called "Yi", "Poetry", "Book", "Zhou Li", and "Yi"

"Rites", "Book of Rites" and "Spring and Autumn" three biographies, the boy is simply ignorant and fearless.

"Okay~! Then memorize your masterpiece and let me see how it is better than a thousand-character essay?" the old man said feebly. The old man suddenly found himself ridiculous, thinking that he, a contemporary scholar with a wealth of knowledge, could actually communicate with a company.

Isn't it ridiculous for guys who don't know a few words to debate the merits of a thousand-character essay?

Li Min looked at the old master's expression and probably guessed what he was thinking now, so he stopped talking nonsense and started reciting the Three Character Sutra: "In the beginning, human nature is good. Nature is similar, but habits are far away. If you don't teach, your nature will change.

…”

The three-character rhyme is very easy to recite, and it is catchy to read. From the moment Li Min's first sentence said, "In the beginning, human nature is inherently good," the old master felt his spirit was shaken. After that, the old master's expression became more and more shocked.

When Li Min recited the words "If a person does not learn, he does not know righteousness", the old master's face flushed with excitement, and the hand stroking his beard was trembling slightly. The look he looked at Li Min changed from initial disdain to shock to enthusiasm, because

He saw a true genius being born before his eyes.

Next, the old master was completely immersed in the rich content of the three-character essay. As Li Min recited with extremely high levels of sensitivity, the old master began to shake his head, and an intoxicated smile slowly began to appear on his face. He is a contemporary scholar who has been reading for decades.

What he does is children's enlightenment education. He is very familiar with almost all enlightenment textbooks, but he has never heard of such a catchy, straightforward and easy-to-understand article.

When Li Min recited the words "These ten meanings are shared by all," he suddenly stopped. The content of the Three-Character Sutra can be divided into six parts. Now that he has memorized the first three parts, he thought of what he was playing now,

It’s Li Min, Prince of Liang, who doesn’t know many Chinese characters. If he recited the entire book at once, wouldn’t he be too evil?

Although Li Min stopped, the old master was still shaking his head and immersed in it. It took him a long time to wake up. Most of the students around him had a deep foundation, and they could understand a lot of the Three Character Classic recited by Li Min. In addition, Li Min

Min said that this was what he did, so he looked at Li Min with admiration. Even Si Zi was no exception, although she didn't understand a word of it.

"Master, this Three Character Classic has six parts in total, but the student has only written the first three parts now. There are three major parts in the back: classics of various schools of thought, history, and students' attitudes towards learning, but the student hasn't figured out how to write it yet.

"

Low-key! Low-key! Although Li Min tried his best to show a humble attitude, he couldn't hide the smugness in his eyes. When he spoke, he unconsciously showed a smug smile on his lips. He was finally able to shock this stubborn old master.

.

"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good. Nature is similar, habits are far apart. Not bad! Not bad! The text is concise and the content is rich and vivid. It is indeed an enlightenment textbook that can be compared with a thousand-character essay." When Li Min was feeling proud, suddenly a familiar voice outside the window suddenly appeared.

The voice praised. Then the footsteps of many people were heard outside. After a while, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe led a group of people into the school. It was none other than the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin.

It turned out that there was rarely anything major to report in the court today. After dealing with some insignificant matters, Li Shimin thought of his beloved daughter Si Zi's first day at school, so on a whim he brought the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to visit him. In fact, Li Shimin gave Si Zi

While Zi was playing origami, Li Shimin and the ministers had already arrived outside the window. However, Li Min and Si Zi were very focused on folding and playing. The other students were either reading or writing and did not pay attention to the window, so no one noticed.

When Comrade Lao Li saw that his incompetent sixth son not only refused to study, but also folded paper to lure Si Zi to play, his face was already livid with anger. The monarchs and ministers behind him either shook their heads and chuckled, or showed disdain. What happened next?

The incompetent old boy Li Zhen actually snatched his sister's origami paper, which made Comrade Li even more embarrassed in front of the ministers. Then Li Zhi betrayed his brother and made him despair. The behavior of the three gangsters was really embarrassing.

It's revealed.

When he finally saw that Sizi was about to receive a punishment, Li Shimin couldn't bear it, but it was Sizi's own choice to go to school, and he had to abide by the rules of the school, so even if he felt sorry for him, he could only endure it. But he didn't expect it.

Li Min actually opened his mouth to stop Master Kong, then cleverly provoked him into a bet, and finally recited a Three-Character Classic that was as good as the Thousand-Character Classic.

"See Your Majesty (Father)!" Seeing Li Shimin come in, Master Kong and his students hurriedly saluted. In the Tang Dynasty, they did not kneel down as often as in later generations. Generally, except for formal ceremonies or sacrifices, they rarely knelt down.

Moreover, this is a school, so all you need to do is follow the school etiquette.

"Haha, no gifts, no gifts!" Li Shimin smiled like a flower. He originally thought that his face would be lost in front of the ministers, but he didn't expect that Li Min's half-thousand-character essay allowed him to earn enough face. Looking at the ministers behind him, they were shocked.

Or the admiring glances made him, as a father, very proud.

"Father~!" Before everyone could straighten up, Xiao Sizi rushed straight to Li Shimin. She had suffered a lot of injustice from the old master just now, and she didn't dare to cry. Now that she saw her father, she rushed up immediately.

His two big eyes were filled with tears, and he looked extremely pitiful.

"Hahaha~, I told you a long time ago that going to school is not that fun, but you insist on coming. Now you must be suffering!" Li Shimin held Sizi in his arms and said with a smile.

"Ming'er, did you write the Three-Character Sutra just now?" Comrade Lao Li asked kindly, which made Li Ming very uncomfortable. The last time he saw him, the emperor's father didn't have a very good attitude towards him.

affectionate.

"I would like to inform my father, the Three Character Classic was indeed written by my son when he was bored at home." Although I feel a little guilty, since I have said everything, I can only bite the bullet now.

"Well, not bad, not bad! What do you think?" Taizong looked at the ministers with a smile. This was a father showing off his son to others.

"Your Majesty, I believe that this Three-Character Classic is indeed what King Liang said. The sentences are short, concise, catchy, and the content is simple and simple. It can be explained in simple terms. It is a rare enlightenment book for young children. I would like to ask King Liang to finish this article and then publish it all over the world.

, in order to better activate the talents of young children." A skinny old minister with a pale beard stood up and said. If other people said this, it would inevitably make people feel that they were flattering, but this skinny old minister looked upright.

, the tone is neither humble nor arrogant, making people feel a sense of uprightness.

As soon as the old man's words came out, they immediately aroused a chorus of agreement. It was obvious that this man was very popular among the ministers. Even the uninterested generals had many people nodding in agreement. Comrade Lao Li especially

He smiled very proudly and seemed to enjoy the current atmosphere very much.

"What Mr. Wei said is true!" At this moment, another slightly feminine voice sounded. The speaker was a middle-aged handsome guy with a white face and a black beard. Different from Comrade Li's masculine handsome guy, this handsome guy was more inclined to

The feminine type said, "But I would like to congratulate Your Majesty. His Royal Highness, Prince Liang, is only fourteen years old. I heard that he was injured some time ago, but he can still show such talent. It is really a blessing for His Majesty!"

Changsun Wuji! Maybe Li Min had too deep a memory of this person. When Li Min saw this person, this name immediately flashed in his mind. Damn it, this guy is not a good person. He seems to be praising himself.

But secretly he was reminding others that the King of Liang was young, had amnesia, and could not even write a classic enlightenment textbook like the Three Character Classic. How could he write a classic enlightenment textbook like the Three Character Classic? As for the person he called Master Wei, could it be Wei Zheng? No wonder in the group

There is such great popularity among the ministers.

"Hmm~" Li Shimin's face darkened. With his wisdom and martial prowess, how could he not have thought of this? However, the previous children made him lose face, and it was all thanks to Li Min's half of the Three-Character Sutra to turn the tide. So even if he felt a little bit

He was confused, but unwilling to question his son in front of everyone, but he did not expect that Changsun Wuji, who had always been shrewd, would ask him in person. In fact, Li Shimin also understood that as the prince's biological uncle, Changsun Wuji would never give up suppressing others at any time.

opportunity for the prince to prevent any prince from threatening the prince's position.

None of the civil and military officials present were stupid. Everyone knew the twists and turns. They all looked at Li Min with interest to see how he would take the blow from Changsun Wuji.

"To my father, as the saying goes, 'if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later.' When my son was seriously injured and fell into coma, he seemed to be helped by gods and men. Although he lost his previous memories, he understood a lot.

My views on things that I couldn't figure out before have also changed a lot, and I have even made great progress in my studies." There is such a big difference between myself and the previous Li Min, and some people will definitely question it, so Li Min has long been

After thinking about the explanation, he continued with a nonchalant expression, "Although Erchen doesn't know much about Chinese characters, he is confident that he understands the principles in the book as well as anyone else, and some inexplicable words often flash through his mind, such as

This Three-Character Classic was written by Erchen in a flash of inspiration. Even Erchen himself could not figure out why he could write such a good article. However, "the article was made by nature, and it was accidentally obtained by a good hand." Perhaps God borrowed Erchen's hand to write it.

It’s possible that this article will spread throughout the world.”

Li Min's mysterious and mysterious statement shocked everyone at the scene. The meaning of Li Min's words was very simple. He told them directly that although I lost my memory after my brain injury, I became a genius. What is a genius?

People with natural talents, you can’t figure out why I write such exquisite articles? If you can’t figure it out, that’s right, because I am a genius! Anyway, there are many people who have been called geniuses throughout the ages, and I am not the only one left!

Cheating? Yes, Li Min was cheating. He had been thinking about this issue since he came to the Tang Dynasty, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of any good reasons. In the end, he just thought of cheating, as long as he insisted that he was beaten.
To be continued...
