"Confucianism is a secluded school?" Kong Rong raised his eyebrows and became slightly interested. Of course, it was just some interest. It was not shocking at all. After all, it was a school that Chen Xi could bring up. In Kong Rong's opinion, it should be something.
Some people who are really talented and learned are not just parallel imports.
After all, a school is different from other things. Reclusiveness does not mean it is better than being outside the world. On the contrary, for a school, generally the greater its reputation, the stronger it is.
After all, there are traces of inheritance, and if you want to grow stronger, you must recruit disciples, and to recruit disciples, you must be famous. Based on this logic, it is naturally impossible for a top school to hide from the world, or even a middle-level school.
Schools of thought must be born before they can move forward.
After all, staying hidden from the world means that there will not be enough disciples to pass on the school. Even if you are lucky and one or two extremely talented people emerge and elevate the school's ideas and culture to a certain level, in the end there will be no
It is inevitable that there will be no successors.
Therefore, if Chen Xi hadn't said this, Kong Rong would have just smiled and wouldn't have taken it to heart at all. Generally speaking, hiding in the world is because he is not strong enough.
Each of the eight current schools of Confucianism could rival the Spring and Autumn Annals in the past, and ordinary schools are simply not qualified to compete with this top school.
Just like a small family cannot produce a noble daughter, the general school of thought that one has never even heard of cannot produce top academic achievements.
However, these words were said by Chen Xi after all, and Kong Rong became slightly more interested. After all, his previous bet with Chen Xi was mainly because Chen Xi mentioned the rites carved by his ancestor Zi Sizi.
With the idea of not being afraid of thieves stealing, but being worried about thieves remembering, Kong Rong felt that it was not unacceptable to lend it to the Dongguan Library, which was rebuilt in Chang'an, for safekeeping. After all, it would be very troublesome even for the Kong family to maintain such things.
of.
There are not many other things in the Confucius family. There are still quite a few classics like these that have been passed down thousands of years ago. The so-called Confucius moved all the books. The inheritance of the old Confucius family has really not been broken up to now. Naturally, this kind of books has been passed down from ancestors.
There are still many simple books.
It is quite troublesome to prevent corrosion and insect infestation of this kind of thing. Just lend it to Dongguan and let the state maintain it. You can just take it back when needed. Anyway, your own stuff is your own stuff, and even the state can't take it away.
Walk.
Although there are no clear laws to protect private property in this era, everyone knows the things that are agreed by convention, such as the Confucian classics of the Confucian family and the Xunzi classics of the Xun family. Everyone knows that they are definitely the most important.
Complete, but unless these things are taken out by the family on their own initiative, others can only borrow them, and robbing them is not allowed.
Even the royal family will not go too far in this regard. After all, no one has ever been down and out. Today, you are so powerful that you have plundered the foundations of other families. However, in this world, it has always been "flowers are red for a hundred days, and people are red"
"Nothing is better than a thousand days", no one has experienced ups and downs yet.
You can be the first grader, and I can be the fifteenth grader, and no one can please me in the end. Naturally, with the development of the times, protecting certain things has become the default rule of the upper class of the Han Dynasty.
Chen Xi is also very aware of these, so Chen Xi has never asked the Xun family for some of Xunzi's handwriting. Even if the Chen family is his own family, Chen Xi has no intention of coveting the ancient engravings collected in the treasury. What should he copy?
I've done it before.
This time it was just a casual question, but Kong Rong actually brought out such a thing for gambling, so Chen Xi also planned to kick Xinxue back with the idea of reciprocating the favor and adding chaos.
After all, the Xinxue, which only emerged during the Ming Dynasty, had no chance to develop to the most grand level. It collapsed because of the change of dynasties. If it were in this era, it might have reached heaven. Not to mention the eight schools of Confucianism, one more would not be a big deal.
of.
Naturally facing Kong Rong's answer, Chen Xi smiled and nodded, saying that when the time comes, the Confucians will definitely not lose money if they get the classics of that hidden school.
Of course, it will not be a loss. Even if the Confucianism of later generations is crooked, it still has more than a thousand years of accumulation. Standing on the thousands of years of accumulation, the Confucianism of course will not lose anything, and it can even be said to be in vain.
The possibility of supplementation is greater.
Chen Xi and Kong Rong's nonsense did not affect Cao Cao's fighting spirit. Cao Cao was still provoking the group of arrogant guys on the opposite side, and was even prepared to challenge the entire opponent alone.
Seeing this, Zhong Yao was about to run away, but was pulled back by Cao Cao. As his top general, how could he not go to the battlefield with his boss?
Well, Zhong Yao doesn’t want to get involved in this kind of thing at all. When he said it before, he was very lighthearted, but if he really wants to do something like following the trend, he also needs to look at the contestants and the group of people opposite, Zhong Yao said
I can't afford it. I can't afford it.
However, Zhong Yao didn't struggle for long before he was bribed by Cao Cao with Cai Yong's handwriting. Zhong Yao entered a fighting state on the spot, directly arguing with the Confucian scholars in front of Cao Cao, citing righteousness and righteous classics.
The battle was extremely enjoyable.
He also strongly stated that he was participating in the competition today. Cao Cao randomly picked anyone, and this time he chose the opposite one. To put it bluntly, articles are about using words to make friends, poems to express feelings, and songs to sing aspirations. Although the last two Zhong Yao could not get full marks.
, but in terms of words, none of the six opponents were his opponents. Only the dead Cai Bozhe was worth looking up to.
During the manic phase, Zhong Yao, who was in a fighting state, was so aggressive that Cao Cao had to cover his face with his sleeves. However, Zhong Yao himself did not realize it. He said that he would teach his opponent Ying Jun how to behave today. Ying Jun looked collapsed. He was Ying Jun.
Shao's nephew, and Ying Shao has a good relationship with Zhong Yao. Ying Jun learned his calligraphy from Zhong Yao, but now Zhong Yao wants to quarrel with him...
As a result, Ying Jue could be said to have been defeated without a fight. Before the game even started, the six-person team opposite broke an arm. However, Chen Lin and others were still very confident.
Just when Zhong Yao was chatting with the scholars, Liu Bei came with his wife. After hearing this, he looked at Chen Xi with interest and asked, "Zichuan, do you want to compete with them?"
"It's not me, it's Cao Sikong." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said. He is very self-aware and may be more likely than others, but compared to the article, how should I put it, he is definitely dead.
Don't look at Cao Cao himself boasting that he has a high level of literature and that there is no pressure to suppress the opponent. Of course, in fact, Chen Xi also admitted that Cao Cao's literary attainments are indeed extremely high. Even Cao Cao's literary attainments are higher than those of the six possible opponents.
No difference at all.
The problem is that whether you are strong or not depends on comparison. Cao Cao has very high literary attainments, but there are six people on the opposite side who are as powerful as Cao Cao. The six people on the opposite side are six of the members of the Seven Sons of Jian'an. With this lineup, can Cao Cao defeat him?
win?
Three Cao and Seven Sons, although Cao Cao brought Cao Pi and Cao Zhi today, these two young boys have not evolved to the complete form and are not even qualified to participate in the war. On the opposite side, the Seven Sons came with six complete forms. Chen Xi felt that today
Cao Cao can wait to die.
Even if Cao Cao performed at his best, he still couldn't withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of the six bosses on the other side.
As for Chen Xi, wake up. Although Chen Xi has a brain full of excellent Tang poems and Song lyrics, he can’t use any of them. This is why Chen Xi has never done anything like copying poems and songs in this era for so many years.
This kind of thing is because it is too difficult!
Others may think that the exquisite poetry of the Tang and Song dynasties is enough to spread all over the world, and even to other worlds, but in reality, that is just a dream.
From a historical perspective, we are now in the Han, Wei and Jin dynasties. Fanqie annotation has just begun. The first rhyme book, "Sheng Lei", will soon be compiled by the big brother Li Deng. From then on, rhythm and other things began to have obvious meanings.
unified requirements.
What is the core of poetry and poetry? It is feelings and thoughts, so what is the expression of poetry and poetry? It is parallel four and six, rhyme and rhyme.
However, let’s see what matches the Tang poetry and Song lyrics in Chen Xi’s mind...
Well, except for rhyme and rhyme, everything else can match. The problem is that without rhyme, poems and songs are still poems and songs?
Therefore, since Chen Xi came to this era, even though he has too many classic Tang poems and Song lyrics in his mind, Chen Xi has never copied a poem or song. The reason is very simple: the rhyme has changed too much.
So much so that Chen Xi's copying of poetry books can only harm the classics, even the rhymes are not correct.
After all, from the late Han Dynasty to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and then to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Chen Xi could remember several changes in rhythm. Let’s not talk about the first rhyme book.
After the change, "Yun Ji" was published to finalize the new rhythm.
These are already two changes in pronunciation. The problem is that these two changes in pronunciation are not actually the biggest problem. During the following period of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the largest change in pronunciation in history occurred, that is, the four tones...
Okay, now the rhythm has undergone earth-shaking changes. The most obvious point is that when modern people read the poems and songs of the Jian'an era, they obviously don't have the same sense of rhythm as the poems of the Tang and Song Dynasties. They can't even tell what the rhyme is.
come out.
However, the sudden change in pronunciation and rhyme during the Northern Dynasties was not complete yet. There was another very important change in pronunciation later, which was the birth of the book "Qie Yun". This book was the basis for later generations of official rhyme, as well as Mandarin, and even later
Ancestor of Mandarin.
The reality is like this. The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were an era when the pronunciation of the Central Plains changed quite drastically. On the other hand, that is to say, the poems and songs of the Tang and Song Dynasties were completely inconsistent with the pronunciation of the time in the Jian'an era. Even if you write them
I can't read the momentum and rhythm at all.
Therefore, Chen Xi has never caused harm to Tang poetry and Song lyrics. After all, the rhyme and rhyme are completely inconsistent with the times, and his writing cannot be as famous as Li Bai's and spread throughout the world, so it is better not to harm it and give future generations a way to survive.
The only thing that can be used is the poetry of the Jin and Jin Dynasties that are closer to this era. After all, they are relatively close, and even if there are some changes in rhyme and rhyme, the changes are not too outrageous, and Chen Xi can at least correct them with his ability.
The problem is that the poetry of the two Jin Dynasties is completely inconsistent with Chen Xi's current mentality. Songs are used to chant aspirations, poems are used to convey feelings, and articles are used to convey Tao. The stuff written in the two Jin Dynasties is a bunch of people who talk about mystical scriptures, take drugs to death, and write things that are completely inconsistent with the current situation.
The background of this era.
Because of the disintegration of the unified dynasty, the decline of the country, the five barbarians moving south, the mountains and rivers are in turmoil, and they are still unable to deal with it. They can only indulge in metaphysical talk and whitewash the peace. The iron-blooded spirit of the Han Dynasty, which rubs against all directions, is not at all the same.
People all the way.
On the contrary, the poetry of the prosperous Tang Dynasty can be used for its prosperous atmosphere and heroic spirit. The problem is that basically all the poems, songs and rhythms of the prosperous Tang Dynasty need to be overhauled.
To be honest, if Chen Xi could change Li Bai's poems, he could still change the spirit of the poems to remain unchanged, free and elegant, and ensure that there are no traces of engraving in the brushwork, the style is majestic, handsome and fresh, and the words are still bold and unrestrained, as elegant as immortals, then Chen Xi
Just write something new, why bother fighting with Tang poetry?
If you don’t have that ability, well, to be precise, there are basically no such people in this world. On the contrary, the Fu barely meets the standards of the Han Dynasty. The problem is that the Fu is too long and there are too many things to change, although the difficulty of each one is a little lower.
, but there are really too many things to change.
After all, in poetry, only five or six sentences of seven or eight sentences need to be changed. If you are lucky and have a feeling, maybe Li Bai's poems will be changed immediately.
Switching to Fu, the individual difficulty level has been reduced, but there are obviously too many things to change. This kind of difficulty is obviously not something that Chen Xi can handle. Combined with the poems of those guys in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, this big gift package has been
Wasted.
The ambitions that are barely usable are inconsistent, and the rhythms are inconsistent with the ambitions. Chen Xi said that he should not engage in poetry and poetry.
This is the reality of Chen Xi. He obviously has a brain for classic poems, but he basically has none that he can use.
Although his words and expressions are quite astonishing and will be passed down from generation to generation, for Chen Xi to write an article that is effective, it will take a long time, and the writing is indeed enough to be passed down to the world, but he has to improvise like these big guys.
Creation is hopeless and waiting to die!
Liu Bei didn't know these things, but he still had some feeling about Chen Xi's creative level. The level of calligraphy was just like that. Although the font could be said to be square in shape and straight in strokes, it could only be said to be in vain.
There is no god.
As for the article, the level is not low. The problem is that Chen Xi is not good at improvisation. This kind of gambling is almost equal to death...
"Oh, Meng De is having a bet with his opponent." Liu Bei was surprised when he heard this. He looked at the opponent's lineup and then at Cao Cao. Liu Bei clearly showed pity.
"What are you looking at? Look at me defeating the opponent." Cao Cao was very unhappy with Liu Bei's eyes, so he said with a dissatisfied look, "Besides, Chen Zichuan, let's go together, I will lead you this time, there are only five left on the opponent, I will fight
There are three, you can hit two, no problem."
"It's very problematic, okay, I'll just admit defeat!" Chen Xi said with a sigh.
