Zhang Heng looked at Zhang Yue with a bad expression.
Zhang Yue cupped his hands and said: "Zhaizhang, I'm sending a manuscript to Xuelu. I happened to be passing by Zhoujin Hall, and I couldn't help but forget to leave after hearing Mr.'s wise words."
"Really?" Zhang Heng sneered, "You can stay here, I think you are clearly..."
How could Zhang Yue be willing to argue with Zhang Heng? Even if he won the argument, he would lose his job. If he lost, he would be humiliated and lose his job.
Zhang Yue saw the professor walking towards him to see what was going on, so he immediately turned away from Zhang Heng and stepped forward to salute the professor: "I would like to ask for your forgiveness, sir!"
The professor lifted the curtain, walked slowly to the steps, glanced at Zhang Yue, and then asked, "Who are you?"
This forgetfulness...
Zhang Heng said: "Mr. Qichen, this person is a servant in the library. He was noticed by the students eavesdropping next to the Zhoujin Hall."
The professor said: "Oh, is this really true?"
Zhang Yue first saluted, and then said with an expression of admiration: "I am new to the Book of Changes at the end of my life, and have not yet found a way to get started. I just passed by here. I was so engrossed in listening to the old gentleman's lecture on the Book of Changes that I forgot where I was."
The professor smiled slightly when he heard this.
“As the saying goes, if you learn the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening! Please forgive me for any offense caused by learning later.”
The professor said: "I remember, that day you tried for the position of servant...were you hired afterwards? Oh, I have an unnecessary question."
Zhang Yue……
Zhang Heng was obviously very aware of the professor's forgetfulness and saluted, "Professor, please let me handle this matter."
Zhang Heng serves as the chief of the restaurant, and the students take up this position and then manage the students. This is practice.
Zhang Heng could indeed decide whether Zhang Yue should stay or go with one sentence. The professor could leave it alone, as he was too lazy to be a director, so he was about to leave.
But Zhang Yue said again: "That day, Houxue was favored by the old gentleman, and made an exception to leave this servant letter, so that he could make a living to support his family. So far, Houxue has never had the opportunity to thank me."
"Today, I heard the old master preach again, and I remembered that the master said, "Purify and refine, and the teachings of Yi". I carefully looked at what the old master said, and it was really true. I couldn't help but suddenly understood what I had learned before. Today's teachings and explanations of doubts are better than the master's.
I don’t know how to be grateful for the kindness you have given me to support my family.”
Hearing this, the professor didn't take it seriously at first, but suddenly he remembered: Yes, my cousin mentioned to me recently that an interesting young man came to the library. Could it be him?
Zhang Heng sneered in his heart. He had seen many students sigh suddenly to attract attention, or ask the teacher for some difficult knowledge to show off their ability. Now he felt even more disgusted with Zhang Yue.
“Ziping, go and invite the library staff here!”
Zhang Heng said: "How dare such an eavesdropping thief delay your work... Yes, the student will go now."
After saying this, Zhang Heng glanced at Zhang Yue and then left.
After Zhang Heng left, the professor looked at Zhang Yue and asked, "Whose name do you have?"
Zhang Yue shook his head and said: "I only know that my husband's surname is Zhang. I don't know anyone in Nanfeng Academy who I know well. On weekdays, apart from the official duties, no one talks to my senior brother. When I was in Wuxi, I only knew that there was a highly respected gentleman here."
The professor smiled gently.
“You come with me.” The professor walked into the Zhoujin Hall as soon as he showed his sleeves.
Zhang Yue was stunned when he saw it, and immediately took off his hemp shoes and walked in. Zhang Yue was in the Zhoujin Hall, but saw pavilions on all sides, and when the breeze came, the gauze was swaying back and forth.
The birds outside the window looked curiously into the hall. The sweet-scented osmanthus in the courtyard withered silently and fell into the inkstone pool. The sun was just right at this time, and the windows in the hall were bright and clean. Twenty or thirty students, all wearing brocade clothes, were sitting on brocade mattresses, one by one, in front of the hall.
In the center hangs a calligraphy with the words "Taoist, Mother of Heaven and Earth" written in large seal script.
The calligraphy of Dazhuan has long been lost in the Song Dynasty. Who wrote it?
Zhang Yue stepped on the wooden board and noticed the looks from the students. He vaguely heard someone asking in a low voice: "Why doesn't this person wear socks?"
Zhang Yue's face blushed slightly when he heard this, but then he straightened his chest and back and walked to the professor's side.
The sound of footsteps was heard outside the hall, and Zhang Heng said: "Sir, people are coming."
"come in!"
But seeing the official duties, Guo Lin followed Zhang Heng into the hall one after the other.
"Bo Yi, what did you call me to do?" The minister didn't show any courtesy when he saw the professor, and stood there carelessly.
The professor smiled and looked at Zhang Yue who was standing aside.
Guo Lin, who was behind Shishi, couldn't help but said, "Zhang Yue, aren't you going to deliver the manuscript? What are you doing here?"
Zhang Heng sneered: "Of course he came here to steal things..."
Guo Lin's expression changed and he said to Professor Zhang Heng without hesitation: "Professor, Chief of Staff, although my junior brother has acted a little recklessly, he is not a careless person."
Zhang Heng laughed and said, "How could I say he stole something? He just came to steal something, right?"
Guo Lin glanced at Zhang Yue, his face turned red with embarrassment and said timidly: "Junior brother has never seen the world, but he has seen it..."
“Brother Cousin, what do you think?” the professor said.
The minister sat aside and said, "I thought it was such a big deal. This guy just passed by and listened to a few words, let alone use the word "stealing"."
Zhang Heng said: "Ministry, our Zhang family's disciples are from the school field originally bought by Duke Xun, and has this young man paid the money? How is this different from taking without telling? What is it if it is not eavesdropping? Three Thousand Saints
Disciples, there is no distinction between teachings, but it is also said that 'teachings are given to those who practice self-cultivation'."
The minister sneered and said: "It's okay if the chief of the restaurant has to have the word "stealing" in his name. Kuang Heng did not hesitate to cut through walls and steal light in order to study. Isn't this also stealing? There is no harm in stealing."
“In the past, the sister of Jia Kui, a famous Confucian scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty, heard that her neighbor was studying. She held Kui in her arms and listened to it every night. She felt that the scholars next to Jia Kui asked her sister if she wanted to study.”
Zhang Heng said calmly: "The minister thinks it's okay not to be disciplined, but I'm even more afraid that someone will take this as a name, and I have received the teacher's instruction in foreign language, and I have learned it in this day brocade hall, and I'm afraid that someone will use it on their face."
Isn’t it an insult to Mr.’s face to pay for gold? We disciples also have a disgraceful face. What’s worse, we cling to others in the name of fellow disciples and cheat outside...”
Hearing this, Guo Lin's face turned red and he repeatedly defended Zhang Yue: "My junior brother is not such a person."
"Okay, don't argue anymore," the professor said. "It's well known that Jia Kui's family is poor, but the rules in the courtyard must be established, and Ziping also does his duty as the chief of the restaurant."
The professor looked at Zhang Yue who said nothing, but saw him standing barefoot in the hall with his clothes on.
He thought for a while and said to Zhang Yue: "If I blame you rashly, you will definitely be dissatisfied. Just now you said that you have studied Yi, and that the study of Yi is pure and subtle, so you passed by and listened for a few words. Then tell me what you want to do first."
"Nine is used in the hexagram, what's the explanation?"
Hearing the professor’s question, Zhang Yue recalled the lines of the Qian hexagram in his mind.
On the ninth day of the lunar month, do not use the hidden dragon (the dragon is in the water). On the twenty-ninth day, you see the dragon in the field (the dragon is on the ground), which is the first and second lines. This is equivalent to the dormant period of the career.
Among the six lines, the third and fourth lines are located in the middle. If they deviate, it is called "not three and not four". The Qian hexagram is the same as the Kun hexagram, in the change from one to six lines, if the sixth line is too much and not enough, then the fifth line
It's the most prosperous.
The Qian hexagram is the Nine-Five. The flying dragon is in the sky, which is good for seeing adults (equivalent to a person's smoothest career and the peak of power, so he is called the Emperor with the Nine-Five Supreme).
(ëīīī): Flying too high, it will be cold at high places.
The nine lines used in the Qian hexagram are: dragons without a leader are auspicious.
There are hexagrams and line words in the Book of Changes.
It is rumored that the hexagrams were written by King Wen of Zhou, and the Yao words were written by Zhou Gong. There are also legends that both were written by King Wen of Zhou.
Each of the sixty-four hexagrams has six lines, corresponding to the six lines respectively. However, both the Qian hexagram and the Kun hexagram have a seventh line, and the lines with one extra line are written with nine and six respectively.
The changes in the six lines are from the origin to the extreme of things, a total of six changes.
As far as the Qian hexagram is concerned, the six lines are all yang lines, and the yang lines are called nine.
Zhang Heng sneered at the side and said: "Sir, how can this wild fox Zen be authentic?"
Zhang Yue thought: What dynasty has come and still worships family and teacher traditions all day long? What’s the use of writing books like this from Confucian scholars?
Zhang Yue said: "As a final test, among the sixty-four hexagrams, only the Qian hexagram and the Kun hexagram are both yang and yin. Therefore, all six lines are yang, all are nine, and all six are yin, all are six. Use Nine is a consistent line of six lines, all of which use nine or are not used by nine."
"Use nine, a group of dragons without a leader, which is auspicious. It is to make those who practice Qian hexagram never forget that heavenly virtue does not come first during the changes of the six lines. A gentleman is constantly improving himself, not to dominate others, but to create all things. For example, a teacher teaches a student , not to make students blindly follow me, but to hope that they will be better than others. Even if it is the Wild Fox Zen that I have cultivated, what harm does it matter? The so-called dragon without a leader means that everyone is like a dragon."
Zhang Yue's answer was like a slap on Zhang Heng's face.
Guo Lin, who was on the side, looked at Zhang Yue with admiration. This answer was indeed an excellent one, and the metaphor was appropriate to counter Zhang Heng's sarcasm about Ye Hu Chan.
The professor stroked his beard and nodded, looking at the minister beside him with a smile in his eyes. The minister had an expression that said, "I told you before, you don't believe it."
“How do you use six to explain it?” the professor asked Zhang Yue again.
The use of six does not mean that you should go crazy with 666.
Yongliu is an extra line in the Kun hexagram and corresponds to the Yongjiu in the Qian hexagram.
Yin Yao is two horizontal lines, so six horizontal lines are written in Kun Gua. Therefore, Yin Yao is called six, and all six lines of Kun Gua are Yin Yao.
Zhang Yue replied: "Use six to benefit Yong Zhen. Zhen is righteousness, and righteousness means integrity. No matter which line a gentleman is in among the six lines of Kun hexagram, integrity and integrity are his foundation."
The old man was unconvinced when he heard the words. Compared with what he said in the book, there was nothing surprising.
Zhang Yue added: "Nine is used in the Qian hexagram, which means that heavenly virtue does not take the first place. Six is used in the Kun hexagram, which means that the terrain is Kun. Although a gentleman has great virtues, he does not put himself at the bottom. An upright gentleman will persist in everything.
"Although I am in the guest position, my heart is in the host position. Although I have a humble status, I never humiliate myself."
“Just like eavesdropping at the end of his studies, Kuang Heng in ancient times chiseled through walls to steal light. The mediocre people ridicule him, but Heng and I do not ridicule ourselves.”
When Zhang Yue said this, there was a buzzing sound below the school hall.
Zhang Heng was so angry that his chest heaved twice. Zhang Yue once again used scripture interpretation to slap him in the face, but at this moment he could not say that Zhang Yue was wrong.
The professor stroked his beard and thought deeply for a moment, then looked at Zhang Yue seriously and asked, "Did you realize this on your own?"
Zhang Yue glanced at the minister subconsciously, and then said: "It is indeed the humble opinion of a late scholar."
Guo Lin also understood that although Guo Xueguo taught Zhang Yue to recite the Book of Changes, these principles had never been taught to him. He had really learned them by himself. Zhang Yue also had the ability to curse people in roundabout ways.
