Chapter 615: When a hero begins to learn culture...
"Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, I have heard about my brother for a long time. It is a great pleasure to meet you today! Please accept my brother's greetings!"
"Please get up quickly!"
Seeing Lu Junyi leading the Zhang brothers, they were about to kneel down on one knee as soon as they met. Li Yan supported the two of them, feeling a little bit dumbfounded.
What's going on with this inexplicable sense of déjà vu?
Looking closer, Zhang Shun, who had just rescued the drowned scholar, was only eleven or twelve years old. He was tall, tall, handsome, and childish. His elder brother Zhang Heng was about seventeen or eighteen years old, strong and ferocious in appearance.
.
Both of them looked excited, with a bit of reverence in their eyes. Lu Junyi smiled and said: "Brother helped the boxing gym and wiped out Wuyou. He has long had a good reputation in the world. At that time, the Zhang brothers heard that it was his brother who recruited him.
I didn't even know that I was trying to save Judge Gongsun, so I came in a hurry."
Suo Chao also praised: "At that time, we left the capital and went all the way north to catch up with Jizhou. Unexpectedly, Judge Ding made a sound of attacking from the east to the west. It was also the Zhang brothers who noticed it, otherwise they would have lost them. These two are really good on the river.
He is a first-class good man, even forcing Judge Ding to avoid his edge."
Li Yan clasped his fists: "In this case, you two are extremely loyal and draw your swords to help. It's only me who should express my gratitude!"
Zhang Heng hurriedly said: "Brother, what are you talking about? You destroyed Wuyou Cave, and all the heroes in the world admire you. Not to mention rescuing Judge Gongsun, the imperial court is unfair..."
Suo Chao covered his mouth and said with a smile: "Anyway, we finally meet again today. It's such a happy event!"
Everyone said: "Let's go! Eat meat and drink wine!"
In the past, he would have gone to Huixian Tower to have sex for free, but now Sui'an Academy has hired a cook and arranged for it immediately.
A large round table was set up in the backyard, and everyone sat down with chairs, looking at the scenery of the Bianhe River and the bustling city of Beijing. If there hadn't been the tragedy of jumping into the river before, they would have felt very comfortable.
The kitchen was busy, and while waiting for the dishes to be served, Li Yan chatted with the Zhang brothers and asked, "You two brothers came to the capital, are you planning to make a living in the water transport?"
Zhang Heng smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Shi Qian introduced us to the job. Unfortunately, it is not a smooth job. I'm afraid we have to go back to the head of the Xunyang River..."
Li Yan said seriously: "What exactly happened? If there is injustice, we should help!"
Others also nodded, and Zhang Heng said with a smile: "Brother is indeed warm-hearted, and it's not unfair to say the least. It's just that I'm used to being casual and can't bear the restraint, so I want to go back to Xunyangjiang to be happy!"
Li Yan knew very well that after he returned, he might officially start the murder business on the river. Instead of directly persuading him, he looked at Zhang Shun: "Where is Zhang Erlang?"
Zhang Shun, who was still young, was somewhat reluctant to give up on the prosperity of the capital, but he said without hesitation: "Wherever my elder brother goes, I will go!"
Zhang Heng patted his brother on the shoulder, lost his smile, and sighed: "It's a pity that if you go back with me, you will also be a boatman on the Xunyang River for generations..."
Zhang Shun didn't feel sorry for this: "So what? We brothers are so watery, aren't we born to live on the river?"
Zhang Heng shook his head: "That's all I want. How old are you, how do you know that you are destined to be like that? Now that you have come to the capital, you should study hard. In the future, if you get a good name, you can also honor your ancestors!"
Zhang Shun didn't appreciate it and muttered: "I don't like reading. I get a headache when I read the words...Besides, if I can succeed in reading, that person just now won't have to jump into the river!"
Zhang Heng was so angry that he cut it off with a slap: "What nonsense are you talking about? All the high-ranking officials are students. You saved a man who jumped into the river, so you don't look down on students?"
Li Yan also said: "Famous officials in the Han and Tang Dynasties were mostly civil and military people. Even if they are not taking the imperial examination, they should still study."
Zhang Heng nodded repeatedly, looked at the lecture room not far away, and his eyes lit up: "I just heard from Brother Lu that he has opened an academy. My younger brother has been smart since he was a child. How about leaving it to him to teach me?"
Zhang Shun was feeling very uncomfortable. He was born with fair skin, and his water talent was even better than his brother's. However, he was never as smart as he was in reading. The eldest brother's words were unconscionable...
Li Yan was a little surprised. His previous students were all the contacts he had accumulated from practicing medicine for more than half a year. He hadn't even met the Zhang brothers for an hour. It was too casual: "You want to entrust your younger brother to me?"
But Zhang Heng felt that he was too smart: "Those teachers in private schools look down on people like us and refuse to teach with heart. How can we compare with my brother?"
"That's true..."
At this moment, a faint voice came from behind. Everyone turned around and saw Zhu Wu standing not far away, with an inexplicable and strange expression on his face, as if he was excited and unspeakable, but also as if he still couldn't believe it.
Li Yan waved his hand and said: "The visitor is a guest. There is no need to be so indifferent. Mr. Zhu, please come and sit too."
Before Zhu Wu was replaced, he was unwilling to sit down, but now he couldn't wait. He stepped forward and asked: "In the beginning, human nature is good, similar in nature, and distant in taste... Is this a textbook specially written by Lin Langjun for children?"
Li Yan was slightly startled, a little embarrassed.
Due to his professionalism, he was not interested in plagiarism. In the Tang Dynasty, let alone poetry and poetry, he had never plagiarized an article from the ancients.
As a result, when I arrived in the Song Dynasty world, I also started copying textbooks...
Although enlightenment readings such as "The Three Character Classic" are an act of benefiting children all over the world, I always feel a little awkward, especially when others ask if it is his work, they cannot say that it is a Liangzhou businessman. In the end, Li Yan could only nod:
"Yes, this book is called "Three Character Classic" and is specially used for elementary school students."
Zhu Wu was moved: "Lin Langjun is so low-key. How can such a good enlightenment book be kept secret?"
He originally saw Li Yan showing off his photographic memory in Taixue, and thought that this person was a boastful person. But now he has changed his mind a lot. He stood up and bowed his hands: "Now I know that Lin Langjun said that he has been studying for three years in Taixue."
, the content of "Three Character Classic" is easy to understand, not superficial, and catchy to read, much better than "Rabbit Garden Book"!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jiang Jing was originally talking to An Daoquan, and he couldn't help but come over. After understanding the "Three Character Classic", his eyes brightened: "Brother, why don't you promote this teaching material? Then I will
An Academy’s reputation spread instantly!”
Li Yan shook his head: "This "Three Character Classic" is not suitable for large-scale dissemination at the moment. It agrees with the essentials of Mencius. If Shilin sees it, he will refute it and cause unnecessary trouble."
For later generations, they are used to referring to Confucius and Mencius together, and Mencius is similar in height to Confucius. But in fact, Mencius was only one of the sages of Confucianism at first, until Han Yu praised Mencius and founded the theory of Taoism, which shows that Confucian Taoism is passed down from generation to generation.
The last generation was passed down from Confucius to Mencius, and Mencius' status became prominent.
But Han Yu does not represent the views of all scholars. There are still many people who oppose Mencius. For example, Sima Guang particularly dislikes Mencius. Instead, he praises Xunzi and Yang Xiong, saying that they are the king. There are not a few who agree with him. It is precisely the Three Character Classic
》The opening chapter of "Human beings are inherently good by nature, similar in nature, and far apart in habits", refuting Xunzi's concept.
Therefore, if a person like Li Yan, who has no status in the literary world, promotes textbooks and guides children to believe in Mencius' theory, those opposed scholar-bureaucrats will definitely attack them. As for the enlightenment effect of the "Three Character Classic", it is secondary...
…
Zhu Wu felt a little regretful after hearing this: "There are many doctors and gentlemen in Taixue who can talk about Confucianism all day long, but it is difficult for anyone to be willing to write such easy-to-understand teaching materials for children. It would be a pity if it is not disseminated.
.”
Li Yan said: "The road has to be walked step by step. It is good to use it as a teaching material for Sui'an Academy. I will use "Rabbit Garden Book" as a comparison. What really enlightens children is "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Surnames".
” and “The Thousand-Character Essay.”
Zhu Wu had studied "The Thousand Character Classic" but had never seen "Hundred Family Surnames". This is indeed a product of the Northern Song Dynasty, but it is not widely circulated yet, and Taixue has not introduced it as a teaching material. If it were replaced by others, it would definitely be
It was a question mark, but when it came out of Li Yan's mouth, it felt inexplicably convincing.
At this time, Li Yan also lost the embarrassment of being a copywriter and looked at Zhu Wu with an amiable smile: "Since Master Zhu loves the Three Character Classic so much, are you willing to take up the post of teaching edicts to students in the academy?"
Zhu Wu was previously unwilling to teach "Rabbit Garden Book". He had no resistance to the brand-new enlightenment textbook "Three Character Classic", but he was a little hesitant: "But now I am related to the Taixue case and am suspected of murder. How can I
Can it become a teaching?"
Li Yandao: "Since Judge Ding put you here, he also meant to let me arrange it. What's more, this case is not only bribery and fraud of Taixue, but also inseparable from Mingzunjiao, right?"
Zhu Wu's expression changed slightly: "Sir, do you know about Mingzunjiao?"
Li Yan's voice deepened: "Ming Zun Sect and Maitreya Sect are two major religions that are strictly prohibited by the imperial court. There are many unruly things among the religions, and they often persecute the people in order to achieve success. I hate this kind of behavior very much.
of."
"The harm of this religion in places like the capital is certainly not as harmful as the Wuyou Cave before, but if we talk about the whole country, it is higher than the Wuyou Cave. Now that the Taixue case is making a fuss, the people should also
You know who is behind it and adding fuel to the flames."
Zhu Wudao: "But the Mingzun believers are quite ferocious, I'm afraid..."
Li Yan looked at everyone: "Have you ever been afraid?"
Lu Junyi took the lead in laughing: "As a man, we can sweep away the rats in Wuyou Cave, but how can we destroy these evil cult thieves?"
Everyone agreed.
Li Yan nodded: "Very good, but Ming Zun's disciples are more threatening than Wuyou Cave. Next, in addition to practicing martial arts, you must also study literature."
Lu Junyi's smile froze instantly.
Li Yan looked at the heroes who were shrinking their heads: "Even if you love practicing martial arts, you still have to practice essays for an hour every day. I will teach you personally. You don't have to be a scholar in the literary world. You just need to think twice about everything and possess the five virtues.
