Zuo Aoran could see from outside that there were three short tables on both sides of the four-open hall, and a man who looked like a scholar was kneeling in front of each table, except for Liu Bei, whom Zuo Aoran knew.
In the middle of the hall, a middle-aged scribe was sitting on his knees in front of a short table. This man Zuo Aoran knew. He was the teacher he wanted to worship, Lu Zhi and Lu Zigan. Lu Zhi was raising his glass and saying to everyone: "Everyone
Your Excellency is not afraid of gossip and dares to come to our house as a guest. It is really Lu's great fortune to have a few confidants and friends in life. Come! Lu gives you a drink!"
Zuo Aoran suddenly walked quickly past the housekeeper who was leading the way, and strode into the lively hall with a dragon-like stride. Under the surprised expressions of everyone, he bowed to everyone and said: "My lords, this is so elegant. I am Zuo Aoran, today
I came here to pay my respects to Mr. Lu."
Lu Zhi hurriedly stood up, walked around the shorter table under the surprised eyes of several people at the table, and saluted Zuo Aoran: "Haha, Mr. Zuo has arrived, and it's really rude of Mr. Lu to not greet you from afar. Please, Mrs. Zuo."
Fu, forgive me!" Then he said to the butler, "Why don't you go and have dinner with us?" The butler agreed and immediately ran to arrange things.
The six people at the banquet, who were raising their glasses to each other, were momentarily captured by Zuo Aoran's aura of dragon and tiger stride, and stared intently at this man who was named the Crown Prince and Tutor, the General of the Northern Expedition, and the Great General of the Palace.
Zuo Aoran. Everyone was thinking that this person was a person who had been making a lot of noise in Luoyang City recently. He was not even under the age of 10, and he was still such a heroic and romantic person!
"Junior, I just barged in and disturbed everyone's enjoyment. I, Zuo Aoran, am rude and I ask for your forgiveness." Then Zuo Aoran said to Lu Zhi again: "Master Lu is a great scholar in this world. I, junior, don't.
I want to take Master Lu as my teacher, and I hope you will agree."
"Master Taifu is joking, how dare I claim to be a great scholar in front of these great scholars here? Come, come, come, let me introduce you all to each other." Lu Zhi said to the people kneeling on the cushions: "Everyone, this is
The throne is the crown prince Taifu, the general who conquers the north, the general who holds the palace, and the governor of Zhuojun, Zuo Aoran and Zuo Yunlong."
"Haha, it turns out that a hero comes from a young age, and he is also the pillar of the country." The old scholar in his fifties sitting on the left, standing in all directions, with a black beard and bright eyes, laughed and looked at
There was a hint of admiration in Zuo Aoran's eyes.
Lu Zhi introduced Zuo Aoran: "This is Master Cai Yong and Cai Cai. He is the great literary scholar today. When he was Yilang, he and I listened to the emperor's order to supplement the book "Han Ji"
, we can talk to each other very well. Cai Feibai is resolute and has great integrity, and he always has the ambition to help the world. Lu himself laments that he is not as good as him."
Cai Yong and Cai Bojie, nicknamed "Fei Bai". He was a great writer and calligrapher in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was good at diction, numerology, astronomy and music. When Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he worshiped General Zuo Zhonglang, so he was also known as "Fei Bai" by later generations.
He is: "Cai Zhonglang". There is a girl named Wenji, named Yan, who is the most talented woman in the world. It is said that she can read at the age of four and write poems at the age of ten. She is unparalleled in her grace and beauty. She was undoubtedly chosen by the talented scholars as the first in the world.
one.
"I, Zuo Aoran, know Mr. Fei Bai's name like thunder in my ears, and the bright moon is in the sky. It is truly my honor to meet Mr. Fei Bai today. Please give me Mr. Fei Bai's advice!" Zuo Aoran hurriedly gave Cai Yong a big gift with his fists in his hands.
"Haha, I see that nephew Zuo Xian is not very old, and he does not have the unruly bad nature of ordinary teenagers. He is in a high position, but besides being heroic, he also knows how to treat others with humility. He is indeed a talent that can be developed." A person opposite Cai Yong
Said a man in his fifties, dressed as a Confucian scholar.
Lu Zhi once again explained for Zuo Aoran: "This is Zheng Xuan and Zheng Kangcheng, who was also a great Confucian at that time. He is actually a good friend of mine. Although he is a commoner, he has the knowledge of the world and the ability to govern the country and bring peace to the country. If the master Taifu really becomes a disciple
If so, it’s better to join Kang Cheng’s sect.”
Damn it! Zheng Xuan and Zheng Kangcheng! This name is no stranger to Zuo Aoran. This person is a great scholar of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was born in the second year of Yongjian of Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty (127 years). His distant ancestor was named Zheng Guo, whose courtesy name was Zitu, and he was a disciple of Confucius.
, is a scholarly family. Zheng Xuan's family background was originally relatively prominent, but by the time Zheng Xuan was born, the Zheng family had already declined. His grandfather Zheng Ming and father Zheng Zhen did not serve as officials, but only worked in the countryside, and their family life was relatively poor.
.
Zheng Xuan was talented and intelligent since he was a child, and he loved reading and was diligent and studious. He learned the science of calligraphy and mathematics from an early age, and by the age of eight or nine, he was proficient in arithmetic of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Not only were ordinary adults unable to compare with him, even he was a scholar and was not specialized in arithmetic.
No one who studies numeracy can catch up with him.
When he was twelve or three years old, he could recite and talk about the Confucian "Five Classics": "Poetry", "Book", "Yi", "Book of Rites" and "Spring and Autumn". At the same time, he also liked to study astronomy and
He has mastered "Zhan Hou", "Wind Angle", "Yin Shu" and other alchemy techniques to predict good and bad luck based on changes in weather and wind direction.
When he was sixteen years old, he was not only proficient in Confucian classics and ancient canons, but also proficient in prophecy and alchemy. He could also write good articles. He became famous in the local area and was called a prodigy by everyone. At the age of 18,
Due to livelihood problems, his parents and brothers did not allow him to study for many years without working in the industry. He had to become an official and take up the position of a village miser.
Fifteen years later, Zheng Xuan wanted to further his studies. Through the relationship with his friend Lu Zhi, he left his homeland and traveled all the way west to Guanzhong, where he became his disciple Ma Rong of Fufeng. After studying with Ma Rong and returning home, Zheng Xuan was already in his 40s.
By this time, he had become a famous master in the country who was proficient in ancient and modern classics. He knew everything about hundreds of schools of thought. So hundreds of thousands of people from far and near came to his disciples, worshiped him as their teacher, and listened to his lectures.
Among them were Liu Bei and others. Although he was a commoner, he was as famous as Lu Zhi and Cai Yong.
"There is a popular saying among the people: Sima in the south, Zheng Xuan in the north, Fei Bai is the most outstanding. I have heard of Mr. Zheng's name for a long time. Being able to meet him today is really a blessing that I, Zuo Aoran, have accumulated through good deeds in my previous life.
Ah!" Zuo Aoran said.
Lu Zhi went on to introduce: "This man is a big shot, haha, Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng... Jingsheng is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. He is highly educated and is a contemporary 'eight-level' scholar, which is amazing."
The so-called Baji is a way of saying Qingliu.
The meaning of "Ji" is to set an example for others and be an object that people can imitate. Above the "Baji", there are three monarchs, eight heroes, and eight "gu", and below there are eight chefs. Here, it is necessary to explain the meaning of these titles.
Jun represents the master. The three contemporary monarchs refer to Dr. Zheng Xuan of the Six Classics, Mr. Shui Jing Sima Hui and Mr. Fei Bai Cai Yong.
"Jun" refers to elites, "Gu" represents noble moral character, and "Chef" refers to people who are charitable and have the spirit of Meng Changjun.
"I have always heard that Taifu Zuo was a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. Today, when I saw him, I realized that the rumors were true. If Taifu Zuo is a great talent, he is actually the cypress and jade pillar in the clear sky of our Han Dynasty, and the purple gold beam that bridges the sea!" Liu Biao praised.
Seeing that Cai Yong, Zheng Xuan, and Liu Biao received such praise from Cai Yong, Zheng Xuan, and Liu Biao after he restrained himself a little, Zuo Aoran sweated in his heart. You haven't seen me when I was unruly. Zuo Aoran simply changed the image of a good boy.
Pretending to the end, he laughed and said: "Haha, it is Zuo Aoran's great fortune to be taught by these three people."
