After operating in Chang'an for seven years, although the scale of Xijing Taixue is not as large as that of Tokyo under Chen Chong, it is not inferior to that of twenty years ago.
The Xiangyunzhai where Dr. Sun Yan invited Chen Chong to give lectures was built last month with Chen Chong's investment. Luoyang Taixue has a lecture hall 20 that can accommodate 300 students. Sun Yan discussed this matter with Chen Chong, and then in
Thirteen lecture halls were built in Chang'an Imperial College, which can accommodate 400 students. The largest of them is Xiangyunzhai. In the halls, you can see the eaves are carved with flying dragons and floating clouds, and the railings are decorated with lions, tigers and other beasts, which makes it unique.
Qiyun.
Although Chen Chong became famous from Taixue, he has been busy with his affairs since he entered the capital. Unless there is a special reason, he rarely goes to Taixue to lecture. The same is true this time. He can make a special trip to Taixue to give lectures, which is another accomplishment in Taixue.
A big thing.
Shortly after the new school was built, the "History of the Nation" Stele Forest, which had been planned for many years at Chang'an Imperial College, was also completed.
The Forest of Steles in the "History of the Country" imitates the "Xiping Stone Classic" carved in Luoyang, using a huge stone stele about one foot long and four feet wide. The inscription on the stele is a chronicle written by Chen Chong himself, from the events of the Three Dynasties to the reign of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, Cai Yong was asked to transcribe it, and it cost another three million to engrave the official script on the stele. There were ninety-eight stone stele pieces, with about 800,000 words. It took four years, and the project was almost three times that of "Xi".
"Pingshi Jing", so that on the day when the forest of steles was completed and opened to the public, all the scholars in the city were proud of it, and it was like a blockage to watch, and it was difficult for cars and horses to move.
Everyone thought that the completion of the forest of steles was a grand event in the literary world. The king of Taichang reported to the emperor, saying that for such a big event, your majesty should join the imperial college with Long Shou to preach and enlighten the emperor. Naturally, they both agreed happily, and there was
This time Xiangyunzhai lectures.
On the morning of the sixth day of September, the Emperor and Chen Chong each drove to Taixue and worshiped the Three Holy Gods in the front hall of Taixue. dignitaries, officials, wives, students and even monks from Chang'an gathered there, and it was overcrowded for a while.
.
After the emperor Chen Chong paid his respects, he then lined up on the left and right sides of the altar, and ordered Wang Yi of Taichang to recite a congratulatory message in front of the altar. Wang Yi was seen wearing a silk crown, holding a yellow silk, facing the crowd, clearing his throat and sighing
The words blurted out. At this time, the autumn sky was shining, and the gentle breeze blew the mulberry and jujube trees outside the hall.
The spectators at the scene were filled with emotion while listening to the new forest of steles in Buda, and looking at it in their hearts.
Chen Chong listened to Wang Yi's words for a moment, and suddenly smelled a faint fragrance. With a glance from the corner of his eyes, he noticed that the emperor was dressed in red makeup. It turned out that many maids in the palace had also come out, except for the Queen Fu and the noble concubine Dong.
, the Princess Wannian was also accompanying him, which made him feel moved, and he suddenly remembered the princess giving him wine.
Soon, the congratulatory speech was finished, and before the crowd could make any noise, Wang Yi could be heard coughing, and Dr. Sun Yan was invited to offer wine.
Many people don't quite understand, but now that Sun Yan speaks in vernacular, everyone understands.
Sun Yan said something similar to how the emperor is a sage, assisted by virtuous ministers, and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. Then he asked Chen Chong to come out and explain the inscription to everyone. Chen Chong then stepped down from the altar and led the crowd to the forest of steles to introduce the inscription to everyone.
After recording the historical events and introducing them, Chen Chong then combined his own views and ideas to discuss and explain them, and so on.
The things recorded in the inscriptions have been recorded for nearly a thousand years. Although they are numerous, the people who explain them can often outline them and add worldly and interesting things. If there are questions, they will not tire of them and will not stop until they make people understand. Therefore, although the explanations are also simple,
But there are often surprising words, which always make people listen carefully. After the summary, people suddenly feel relieved, like taking a bath in the spring breeze, like drinking sweet rain. I also see Chen Chong walking among the forest of steles, like walking on the white clouds on the top of the mountain, connecting the past and the present.
, as if the drunkenness will rise above the nine heavens, and all the listeners will be intoxicated.
Seeing this scene, the waiter Xu Qian immediately praised people and said: "The history of Guanxi and the carved stone scriptures of Guandong. The banquets are coming to the altar, and the crowns and crowns are like clouds. The auspicious birds are waiting for the spiritual vultures, and the auspicious beasts are leaning over the platform. Ning Wenlong
Sichuan Shi, how can I ask people to teach me?”
Soon it was noon, and Chen Chong felt a little tired, so he bowed to the ceremony. The palace servants held a banquet for Chen Chong and all the officials to eat and rest.
In the afternoon, most of the scholars and common people dispersed. Chen Chong was surrounded by imperial students and sat on a banquet in front of the forest of steles. The emperor, the queen and the princess bowed to accompany him, and about a hundred ministers from the court and ministers also sat there. p>
Chen Chong said to everyone: "I have already said everything in general in the morning, and there is no need to repeat it now. It is more about studying and understanding by yourself. I know that in teaching, clearing up doubts is the most important. If you have any questions, you may as well tell me
Listen."
Shang Shulang Mi Heng stood up and saluted, and then asked: "I heard what Long Shou said on the inscription. It was very extensive and clearly recorded. It is naturally a good history book. But there seems to be one thing that is not recorded. I don't know if it is Long Shou.
Is it a leak, or is there another purpose?"
Chen Chong said casually: "Let's talk."
Mi Heng said: "Dong Zhongshu often said that heaven and man interacted with each other, and strange phenomena occurred due to the interaction between heaven and man. However, the inscriptions did not contain any bad or good fortune in the heavenly phenomena. Why?"
Chen Chong did not answer, but asked everyone: "What do you think?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Xiu, who was in charge of the Household Department of the Si Li Mansion, shook his fly whisk and said: "The meaning of the dragon head should be that God's will is high and difficult to ask. It can be seen from human accidents. For example, when Zhou Wu conquered Zhou, it was especially bad omen. Liu Xin could not escape the death of Guangwu.
"It is better to hold the essence and maintain unity, to reach the extreme of emptiness, to maintain tranquility and sincerity."
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this, praised him endlessly, and commented: "Yang Dezu is extremely smart, and he is really unusual."
Only Kong Rong, a member of the Sili Mansion, shook his head and said: "Although what Dezu said is exquisite, there are still flaws."
Yang Xiu looked at Kong Rong, raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, what is Mr. Wen Ju's opinion?"
Kong Rong said unhurriedly: "It is difficult to ask about God's will, but many things in the world are faked by ordinary people, using the name of God's will to confuse the ignorant people. Although the envoy's writings do not contain celestial phenomena, they do contain the words of celestial phenomena.
, it can be seen that it is not to respect heaven and keep emptiness, but to dispel the charm of history."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Everyone looked at Chen Chong and saw that his eyes were half full and he nodded slowly, apparently agreeing with what Kong Rong said.
Yang Xiu still disagreed and said: "It is appropriate to dispel charms, but when people are in the world, they must not understand the greatness of nature and the insignificance of human life. The saying that Confucius was in the Spring and Autumn Period and the rebellious ministers and traitors were afraid is just a small talk about righteousness and a desire for profit.
If you write about history and make people fearless, it is not the holy way."
Kong Rong couldn't help laughing when he heard this and said: "Does this boy want to imitate Zheng Kangcheng and write articles to fight?"
After hearing this, everyone applauded and said: "Kong Wenju is a veteran in the literary world, and Yang Dezu is a new talent in the literary world. It will be a great thing if they can each produce wonderful articles!"
Yang Xiu also smiled and said: "Although it's good, it only lasts for two months. When the affairs in Hebei are over, the Sili Mansion will be busy, and I don't know when I will have time."
The emperor was sitting on the left side of Chen Chong. Hearing this, he asked Chen Chong softly: "How is the war in Hebei going recently?"
Chen Chong also replied softly: "I just came to report yesterday, saying that all the main force of the general has crossed the river and is confronting the thieves in Leling. The sound of drums can be heard on both sides. Zhong Shangshu, who is in Sheguo, has moved eastward along the Zhang River.
They surrounded Yecheng and sent envoys to recruit all the counties in Hebei Province to surrender. General Zhenbei went south and defeated Bao Xin, broke through the military capital, and after a short rest, he was about to attack Zhuoxian County."
The emperor said: "It seems that the war is going well."
Chen Chong saw his gloomy expression and knew what he was thinking. Even he didn't know how to comfort him. After a long time, he said: "I heard that Concubine Dong Guifei will give birth to a baby soon. Has your Majesty already chosen a name?"
The emperor glanced at him and said slowly: "If he is a man, let him be named Liu Qi."
Just as the two of them were talking in secret, someone stood up, saluted Chen Chong and asked: "Although the envoy writes to dispel the charm of the people, I see that in his daily behavior, he is cautious and cautious, and treats himself harshly. I don't know why you are doing it."
Why do you respect me?"
Chen Chong looked back and found that the person speaking was Jingzhao Wuhui, the great-grandson of Wuyuanxian, the former governor of Yanzhou.
Chen Chong thought about it for a moment and said to him: "What I said is not disrespectful to heaven. Lao Dan said: 'Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs.' God's will is unpredictable, and it is impossible to predict bad luck without the human heart. And looking through the annals of history, there are many
There are those who can understand the human heart through the celestial phenomena, but there is no one who can understand the celestial phenomena through the human will. Even in a person's life, birth, old age, illness and death are not controlled by one's own will. It can be seen that human beings are unpredictable, which is the most unpredictable thing in nature. Therefore, I think that when I am in the world, I should
To respect people's hearts, we should also respect ourselves. Putting self-discipline as the first priority, sincerity is promoted throughout the world in "The Book". However, for thousands of years, it is not easy for those who can cultivate their moral integrity with sincerity and correct mind."
After everyone listened, they all felt something. After the emperor and Chen Chong left, the students gradually dispersed. Along the way, many people were still arguing about the words they heard during the day. Among them were three students.
We walked together and talked to each other about today’s banquet.
The young man on the left said: "The last time I drove through Luoyang, I didn't go to Taixue to study the "Stone Classics", which was a great pity, but today I saw the "History of the Nation", and I don't have to worry anymore." p>
The young man on the right said: "It's a pity that we are still unknown. Although His Majesty and Chen Jun are both in the high seat, we don't have the chance to ask questions. I don't know how long it will take before we can see each other again."
The young man in the middle was silent, obviously thinking about something. After his companion called him twice, he came back to his senses. His companion smiled and asked him: "Kong Ming, what are you thinking about?"
The tall young man wore a Fulun scarf, put his hands behind his hands and said to them: "I just looked at His Majesty and Chen Shijun from a distance, and both of them looked very handsome. But when Yang Dezu and Kong Wenju were discussing, the emperor often hid his eyes, and Chen Shijun
It seems that the two of them are not getting along with each other. This is not a good thing! Zhou Ping, I am quite uneasy and always feel that something big is going to happen."
The young man on the right is Cui Zhouping, the youngest son of the late Lieutenant Cui Lie, and the young man on the left is Pang Tong of Xiangyang. Both of them were quite suspicious when they heard this. Pang Tong said: "It is not for us imperial students to talk about matters in the court.
Are you sure? You should go and say hello to the teacher first."
Kong Ming thought carefully for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh, and joked to Cui Zhouping: "Zhou Pingyan has the ambition to be a governor, how can he say this? The ambition of Honghu must be made clear at all times, so he can not fall."
Zhuge Liang, courtesy name Kongming, was born in Langya, Xuzhou. During the Chuping period, there was great chaos in Xuzhou, and his uncle Zhuge Xuan took him to Liu Biao, Jingzhou. He was eighteen years old this year. He had been studying in Nanyang on weekdays, and now he was proficient in classics, but he felt that he had not yet
Later, I heard that the Imperial College in Chang'an was becoming more and more prosperous, so I went to Xijing with my friends to study. Although he was eager to learn, he was not very talkative, so his classmates did not know his abilities, and his reputation has not yet been revealed. Only close friends know that he is extraordinary.
