Chapter 28 The first lesson of the Academy of Arts
Chai Tiannuo never lied to him. There are differences between people. It is possible that even if you risk your life and work hard, you will still be inferior to someone else's leisurely stroll.
However, as long as you leave, it is better than standing still. Beyond your past self, it is also a great progress.
get out of class ended on time, and all the students in the civil and military departments had solemn faces. If Chai Tiannuo hadn't started talking, they would have never known that Dahua, which appeared to be prosperous on the outside, was in such a serious situation.
I originally thought that border frictions were just minor conflicts, but now I realize that they were a terrifying war involving hundreds of thousands of lives and deaths!
After lunch, Chai Tiannuo went to Chen Zhixing, the dean of the School of Liberal Arts, and asked about his course schedule. The dean, who always looked unhappy, smiled:
"You have spoken enough in the morning. The students need time to digest it. Let's do something more relaxed in the afternoon. Have a big class, discuss the Book of Rites with them, and then discuss poetry pairs."
"Since the song "Recalling the Northwest" came out, the whole capital area was immediately noisy."
"The students all want to see what you, this thousand-year-old man, are like!"
"Be careful not to let them catch any mistakes, otherwise your thousand-year reputation of Chaitino will be ruined."
"...Master Dean, why do I feel that you are gloating about others' misfortune??"
Chai Tiannuo said with a black line on his face, and Chen Zhixing, the dean of the Academy of Arts, smiled widely:
"Your feeling is correct. Scholars have always looked down upon each other since ancient times. Why do the sages and scholars recognize you but not me?"
"It makes me happy to see you in trouble!"
"Master Dean, your conscience is greatly damaged!"
Chai Tiannuo turned around and left. Chen Zhixing's face was full of doubts, "Wow, what kind of wording is this?"
All the members of the Minglun Hall were wearing long white Confucian shirts and turbans of the same color. They were sitting neatly on futons. The four treasures of the study were placed in front of them. They all saluted Chaitino:
"Hello Mr. Chai."
"Hello, classmates."
Chai Tiannuo chuckled and returned the greeting, thinking to himself, isn't this normal? It's not as scary as the dean said.
Sitting in front of the same table, Chaitino opened the book and said with a smile:
"The Book of Rites is a must-read classic for all scholars. I believe many of you students have dabbled in it."
"As the saying goes, review the past and learn the new. Today I will take you to familiarize yourself with the Book of Rites again. After all, this is a major item in the scientific examination. There are only advantages and no disadvantages in thinking more about it."
After saying that, Chai Tiannuo looked seriously at the book of rites made of silk paper and read it carefully.
In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed. Just when Chaitino thought it would pass calmly, a member of the first group suddenly spoke:
"Sir, how do you say that you respect an unknown sage and fear him and love him?"
Chai Tiannuo's heart skipped a beat, the troublemaker was here. Fortunately, he had read a lot of books in his previous life. Although he was a proper science student, he had also done a lot of research on ancient books such as the Book of Rites. At least he was quite familiar with the interpretations of various versions.
.
"The truth is actually very simple, you have to get close to kind and capable people and respect them, recognize and love them, that's all."
"If you are the son of a man, you must have a face, you must have permanence in your travels, and you must have karma in everything you learn. What do you mean?"
As soon as Chai Tiannuo finished speaking, another member of the Communist Party of China asked.
Alas, this is the question and answer stage.
Closing the book, Chai Tiannuo grinned at everyone and said:
"This point speaks to the way of being a child."
"Be sure to tell your parents face to face when you go out, so that the elderly will not worry about you. The same is true when you go home. This is respect for your parents."
"When studying, be sure to compile what you have learned into a book for parents to check."
"In one word, filial piety is the foundation."
As soon as this statement came out, there was a buzz of discussion in the Minglun Hall. Chaitino's interpretation seemed similar to the traditional interpretation, but it was completely different on the inside.
One is based on academic etiquette, and everyone should observe etiquette and comply with rules in everything.
One is filial and considers parents and elders when doing things. The core of the two is completely different.
Many students wanted to use traditional interpretations to refute, but when they opened their mouths, they found that compared with Chaitino's interpretation, the traditional interpretation was much dryer and pale. The two were not on the same level at all!
"Unexpectedly, really unexpectedly, this book of rites can be interpreted from the perspective of filial piety. It is worthy of Chaitino!"
Dr. Wei stood outside the window, stroking his beard and said with emotion.
Around him stood the doctoral studies and official records. The dean nodded slightly and whispered:
"Keep listening and see what other explanations he has."
"Sir, do you think that if you don't take a wife with the same surname, so you don't know her surname when you buy a concubine, then you will find out that the widow's son is a widow's son, so you can't be friends with her, right?"
One member raised a question and at the same time bowed deeply. It was obvious that he really had questions and was not deliberately making things difficult.
"Yes, and also wrong."
Shaking his head slightly, Chaitino looked at the confused people and said with a chuckle:
"It does make sense to choose a wife who doesn't have the same surname."
"There are many billions of people in our country who are wandering around, and there are many who will not recognize each other for more than ten years. If they marry a relative, not only will their descendants be susceptible to madness, but it will also violate the principles of human ethics.
.”
"But if the love is deep and you are sure that you are not within the five realms, then what's the harm in getting married?"
"No matter how great the etiquette is, it must be humane and cannot be generalized."
The questioner bowed deeply again, with a bright smile on his face. Chai Tiannuo muttered in his heart, this boy is probably in love with a woman with the same surname, just look at the silly smile on his face!
"Then if I don't know my last name when I buy a concubine, is it reasonable to divine it?"
Another student member asked. Chaitino couldn't help but scratch his belly secretly and sighed:
"Actually, I would say this is pure fart!"
Minglun Hall was shocked, no one expected that Chai Tiannuo would say such words.
"If nothing else, just a divination is nonsense!"
"There are many fortune tellers on the street. How many of them are living a prosperous life?"
"Let a group of liars give you guidance, it's just a bad idea!"
The truth of these words shocked everyone. Every year in Dahua’s Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, the Heavenly Supervisor is required to predict the country’s fortunes in the coming year. This impact is too scary!
"Then, that gentleman, isn't there anyone who is truly an expert among fortune tellers?"
"Yes, it's me."
Chaitino pointed at himself and grinned, and the scene was silent for a moment. This reversal was beyond everyone's expectation.
"Are you accurate?"
“Quite accurate!”
Chaitino smiled and nodded, and the student immediately asked excitedly:
"My surname is Song, what is my father's surname?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone burst into laughter. Since your surname is Song, your father's surname is naturally Song too.
Chai Tiannuo slowly took out the turtle shell copper coins. The teachers outside the window all grinned. There was actually a fortune teller. Could it be that he really knew how to tell fortunes?
Looking at the tortoise-shell copper coins scattered on the ground, Chai Tiannuo blinked, then pinched his fingers to calculate more than ten seconds, and finally looked at the student in surprise:
"It's amazing, it's really amazing. I never imagined that your life experience is so weird!"
Without waiting for others to ask, Chaitino spoke:
"The dead brother married his sister-in-law and left his posthumous child with the surname of the orphan in the village. Can this classmate explain why this is so?"
