The father was full of red face, Zhang Chao was restored to his post and was also awarded a bachelor's degree, which was even more happy than his promotion. He was always frugal, and even gave a piece of silver to the officials who came to make the order. Each of them gave two strings of money, which was generous for the first time.
The whole mansion is also full of joy.
Cui Yingying was so happy that she almost let the housekeeper set off firecrackers.
"Butler, go to the gate to set off firecrackers, put more, set a thousand or eight hundred sounds. Our Sanlang has been reinstated and has to be reused." Cui Yingying happily directed the Butler. Zhang Chao didn't expect that she would really let the Butler set off firecrackers immediately.
"Old Niu, have you brought the firecrackers?" The housekeeper went to find Lao Niu, the first firecracker in the Zhang family. Lao Niu was a little anxious and really didn't bring it. Fortunately, Butler Wang cleared the siege for them, and there were only one in this family, but not many, just a hundred.
"There are a hundred roots, so let's put them first. Lao Wang, hurry up and buy some in the market. Today, our Sanlang official has been promoted step by step. Of course, we have to celebrate it."
Zhang Chao looked at everyone's joy and couldn't pour cold water on him, and a forced smile appeared on his face.
On this day, there were really a thousand sounds in front of the Zhang family's mansion in Wubenfang.
The earth-shaking sound really alarmed the whole house.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui couldn't play the game anymore. They pushed open the door and looked at the pile of firecrackers in the Zhang family's door, and a group of people were constantly throwing firecrackers into the fire, which was so exciting.
"This Zhang Sanlang is really quiet for a few days."
"Isn't it been quiet for half a month last time?" Du Ruhui put his hands in his sleeves and laughed.
"Apart from putting him in prison, he wouldn't be quiet. This movement is every day, and you'll die if you don't do anything." Fang Xuanling and Zhang Chao were also unceremonious. It's not been a month since the exemption from the official position, and now they are getting bigger and bigger.
"What do you think of this Chongwenguan?"
"Dongshi imitates others and picks up some people's teeth." Fang Xuanling shook his head, "But it can be seen that the primary school is guided by experts. In this way, the royal family and the descendants of the heroes all went to the Eastern Palace to study, which is very interesting."
Du Ruhui thought this seemed good, but in fact it had no effect. That's better, there were also meritorious officials in the East Palace to be relatives, but those meritorious officials would not turn to the prince because of this.
"How much do you want to put on? Look at the car of firecrackers, Zhang Sanlang is too high-profile." Du Ruhui saw several carriages loaded with firecrackers stop at the door of Zhang's house.
"I guess it's not what Zhang Sanlang meant. We should play chess, otherwise people would say that we can't eat grapes and say that the grapes are sour."
At the opposite door of the Zhang family, Wei Zheng sat in the room and had just woken up.
He looked at the several jars of Erguotou sent by the Zhang family, smiled. When he heard the sound of firecrackers from the Zhang family, Wei Zheng poured himself a cup of Erguotou, "This Zhang Sanlang is really amazing everywhere."
The Imperial College in Tongfang.
The endless sound of firecrackers covered the sound of reading.
"Whose family is doing the wedding?"
"You don't know yet. I heard that Zhang Sanlang was reinstated, and was also appointed as a bachelor of the Chongwenguan in the East Palace, and also became the Fu He lecturer of the King of Taiyuan. There is a bright future!"
"How do you know so clearly?"
"There has been a rumor about this incident a few days ago. Tsk tsk, Zhang Sanlang is no older than us, but he has already reached this point and will become the prime minister in the future."
"Actually, it's awesome."
"What I admire most about Zhang Sanlang was that he fought with Mr. Peng's brothel a few years ago and fought hard. It is said that when he was in prison, he persuaded Wang Yongan to be the one who was accused of him. Now that Wang Yongan has come out, he still has sex with Zhang Sanlang. This is the real awesome."
"A true celebrity, self-indulgent, true temperament."
"It turns out that Zhang Sanlang bought a house in Wubenfang. Why don't we become neighbors in the future? Maybe we will get to know Zhang Sanlang if we have the chance."
On the other side of Imperial College.
Kong Yingda and his colleague Lu Deming were also interrupted by the sound of firecrackers. "Zhang Sanlang actually became the deputy director and bachelor of Chongwen Museum. It would be great if he could enter the Tiance Prefecture Literature Museum." Kong Yingda reads books he bought from Zhang Ji's Bookstore every day recently, and the more he reads, the more he likes them.
Isn’t this carved book as great as the stone scriptures?
Even the sub-collections of classics in history are often lost. Even if there are still books, there are often different contents. The reason for this is that there are few books in the past, and the books are copied. After copying them, it is easy to copy them wrongly, and then the rumors will be even more wrong.
Therefore, in history, several times, emperors invited famous scholars from all over the world to gather in the capital to organize and proofread these scriptures, and then made an official version and carved them on a stone tablet, called the Stone Sutra, which is a model for the world.
During the Sui Dynasty, the stone scriptures were transported from Luoyang to Chang'an.
Luoyang Stone Classic is the official collection of famous scholars to unify Confucian scriptures after the unification of the Confucian scriptures, which were engraved on the stone tablet as a model. However, over time, the characters on the stone tablet will also be missing.
At that time, Kong Yingda and many great scholars from all over the world defended and argued.
However, it is very troublesome to carve stone scriptures and erect inscriptions. It is also easy to damage. However, Zhang Chao's carved book now amazed Kong Yingda.
As long as the carving and proofreading is done and then printed, it will be a book printed in the same mold. There will be no errors or copying incorrectly, and there will be no various deficiencies, doubts, or ambiguities in the classics of the saints. Moreover, the punctuation marks used in Zhang Sanlang's books are also very good, although many scholars have to learn to break sentences when they start reading.
But there are some key points, even some great scholars, who will have doubts. Those often involve some allusions and history, and even one sentence can explain multiple meanings, but if punctuation and symbols are added, this ambiguity can be minimized.
This can also greatly increase their understanding of the classics for scholars, especially those new scholars.
A carved book is equivalent to a stone scripture, and thousands of printed books will no longer have to worry about the loss of the classics or even the lack of them.
"Deming, I plan to send my manuscript to the Zhangjia woodblock printing as well."
"But won't the Zhang family carved books be printed with thousands of pieces?"
Kong Yingda thought for a while and said, "But I am not buying books directly. I am just engraving my own books. If I engraving less, it should be cheaper, right?"
Kong Yingda has a set of manuscripts in his hand, which was him sorting out the Analects of Confucius by his ancestor Confucius.
Kong Yingda was the 31st generation grandson of Confucius. He always had an ideal that one day he would make the Analects of Confucius a Confucian scripture.
After so many years of experience, there are three versions, including "Ancient Theory", "Lu Theory" and "Qi Theory". The contents of each version are somewhat different, especially until this time, the Analects of Confucius had not yet entered one of the Confucian scriptures.
The Five Classics of the Han Dynasty and the Nine Classics of the Tang Dynasty did not have a place for the Analects of Confucius.
Kong Yingda spent many years organizing the three Analects of Confucius. The Analects of Confucius was written in the early Warring States Period, but was destroyed by Qin Shihuang burning books and burying scholars. In the Western Han Dynasty, he was only taught orally. Later, he obtained some books from the walls of Confucius' houses, which were divided into 20 chapters of the Analects of Lu taught by the people of Lu, 22 chapters of the Analects of Qi and 21 chapters of the Analects of Confucius who were orally taught by the people of Qi, and 21 chapters of the Analects of Confucius who were found in the walls of Confucius' houses.
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the emperor's teacher Zhang Yu carefully studied the "Analects of Confucius", and based on the "Analects of Lu", referring to the "Analects of Qi", and formed another theory, called "Zhanghou Lu". This book became an authoritative reading book at that time. "The Analects of Qi" and "Analects of Analects of Confucius" were lost soon. Zheng Xuan used "The Analects of Qi" as the basic version, referred to "The Analects of Qi" and wrote "Analects of Confucius" in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and then made the "Analects of Confucius" annotation" in reference to "The Analects of Confucius", and then made the "Analects of Confucius".
The Analects of Confucius in Kong Wall presented a letter to Emperor Wu by Kong Anguo. As a result, it was the "witchcraft incident". The court returned the books to Kong, and "their learning was thus circulated in the Kong family.
Zhang Yingda has always hoped to focus on the ancient theories in Confucius' walls, and to also compile the Qi and Lu theory, to compile a new Analects of Confucius, and to annotate this Analects of Confucius.
The ancients' annotated commentary on classics, of course, is to interpret them.
The Analects and Commentary of the Analects compiled by Kong Yingda is planned to be compiled into thirty volumes, and there are currently ten volumes of manuscripts.
If you can print books according to the way Zhang Ji Shufang prints a thousand copies, you may have to carve thousands of boards, and a set of six stanzas of books, and a thousand sets will cost 6 stanzas of books.
Kong Yingda can't afford to print.
"Zhongda's Analects and Commentary on the Analects of Confucius is a masterpiece. Maybe we can talk to Zhang Sanlang in person, and he may be able to support you. Such a good book must of course be printed and circulated."
"Or why, while the Zhang family's happy event is coming today, let's go and celebrate it, and talk about your Analects and Commentary on the Analects of Confucius."
Zhang Mansion.
Zhang Chao was a little surprised by the visiting Kong Yingda and the others, and invited them to sit down in the flower hall.
I know the names of Kong Yingda and Lu Deming, Zhang Chao, a doctorate in the Imperial College, or a bachelor of the Tiance Palace Literature Museum. Both of them have been famous for many years and are truly famous scholars.
Zhang Chao was originally worried that these two people would come to play the house and smash the situation.
As a result, when they heard this, they actually wanted to print books.
This is the first time I came to Zhang Chao to print the book. However, Tangren did not have the copyright awareness at this time. If he had written a book himself, he would have been eager to let others copy and disseminate it, and would never say that he would have to collect the copy fee.
"Dr. Kong has this Analects and Commentary on the Analects of Confucius in his hand?"
"It has not been completed yet, the plan is thirty volumes, and only ten volumes have been completed at present." Kong Yingda brought his ten volumes of manuscript over.
Zhang Chao looked through it and found that this Analects of Confucius is not only annotation and commentary, but also a recompiled a new version of the Analects of Confucius, and then annotated and commented on this new version of the Analects of Confucius.
The words are well written.
Zhang Chao praised it in his heart, and then looked at this version of the Analects of Confucius carefully. It seemed similar to what he had seen in later generations, but some of them were a little different, and the content seemed to have increased. Well, the annotations and comments were all well explained, and he was worthy of being the descendant of Confucius' thirty-first generation.
Yes, the Analects of Confucius is the family school of Kong.
Zhang Chao felt that if this book was printed and sold, it would be more popular. After all, this version looks very authoritative and has good annotations.
"This is a good book, I'm willing to print it."
Kong Yingda was very happy when he heard this and asked, "How much does it cost to print a book?"
"Free!" Zhang Chao replied with a smile.
Kong Yingda and Lu Deming were both stunned. Free?
Chapter completed!
