Chapter 67 65. On coercing the emperor (please ask for monthly tickets, monthly tickets, monthly tickets)

The question of how to become a gentleman is actually too broad and empty.

Since the Western Han Dynasty, hundreds of schools of thought have been deposed, and Confucianism has been the sole focus. Only scholars with a good reputation can become officials. Therefore, most scholars regard themselves as gentlemen.

But in the end, everyone has his own ideas about what it means to be a gentleman.

Therefore, Huang Yueying did not intend to answer Yang Yi, but smiled and asked, "What do you think a gentleman should do?"

Yang Yi replied without thinking, "There are bandit gentlemen who are as good at discussing and discussing as they are at polishing."

Huang Yueying nodded, "Do you think the gentleman mentioned in the poem is still applicable today?"

"It's applicable."

"That gentleman is not a vegetarian. Do you think so, young man?"

In the pre-Qin period, a gentleman mostly referred to a man among the nobility, focusing on the division of classes.

Yang Yi thought for a moment, nodded, and then shook her head, "It is indeed said in the poem, but Confucius also discussed it."

"The Master said, a gentleman is concerned with righteousness, while a villain is concerned with profit. A gentleman is virtuous, while a villain is concerned with earth. A gentleman is concerned with punishment, but a villain is benevolent. A gentleman is peaceful but not arrogant, and a villain is arrogant but not peaceful."

"The Master said, a gentleman has no weapons."

"The Master said: Cultivate yourself to be respectful, cultivate yourself to be at peace with others, and cultivate yourself to be at peace with the people."

"I personally think that if you can do this, you can become a gentleman."

Everyone in the hall, good guys, these young gentlemen today are better than each other, right? There was a young gentleman in the past who was very talented and smart, but now there is a young gentleman who can do this in an instant...

Huang Yueying, on the other hand, smiled and nodded, "Then why do you need to ask again?"

Yang Yi:……

Yang Lu smiled and shook his head. Sometimes, his younger brother... still needs to learn more.

It was clearly him who asked the question, but he was the one who answered the question. A Chu took away the initiative easily.

Besides, such a question... really doesn't bother Ah Chu.

…

"I never thought that the writing style of the children of Jingzhou would be so prosperous, but only a child of eleven or twelve years old would think so much." At the table, a middle-aged man stroked his beard and sighed.

"Exactly, is Guang Ming's heart moved?" Another man next to him asked with a smile.

"When I moved south this time, I originally thought that the arts would not be prosperous, but here, I found these few good seedlings, which is very exciting."

"I wonder which one you like more, the one on the main seat or the one by the door?"

"Can't they all be accepted under the sect?"

"Is it possible for me, Song Zhongzi, to show off?" Song Zhong glared at him, "Qi Wukai, don't try to pass."

"Ahem, of course Huang Xiaolangjun is more to your liking." Seeing that his old friend seemed to be angry, Qi Wukai quickly spoke.

"In that case, I will ask the young man of the Yang family."

"Are you, Song Zhongzi, so kind?"

"Heh... isn't it because you have come all the way?"

"Then thank you so much, Brother Song." Qi Wukai said happily.

Song Zhong narrowed his eyes and wanted to take that piece of beautiful jade, but it was a pity... He already had a disciple.

…

"The young gentleman and the young gentleman can treat the Analects of Confucius so well. I admire you." Someone smiled and handed over their hands, "But I don't know what else the young gentleman can do."

Governance means learning and research.

"The Seven Classics and Eight Meanings all have some reference." Huang Yueying thought for a moment, then nodded and replied.

"That's right, Mr. Cheng Yan studied under Duke Cheng. It's not as difficult as my studies. So far, I have only mastered the Spring and Autumn Annals." The man was very envious in his heart and sighed, "I am Cheng Song, whose courtesy name is Zhongbai."

"Brother Cheng, please." Huang Yueying became serious. People who say they specialize in a certain book usually mean that their teacher likes the book better. Sometimes, the angle of asking questions is very tricky.

Most of the people present today probably want to see if there is any chance that they can step on her and rise to the top.

It's a pity...her performance just now may have made many people give up on this idea.

Some people may not have even studied the Analects of Confucius well when they were eleven or twelve years old.

This is also the reason why Huang Yueying answered with "The Analects of Confucius" when the first few people asked questions.

Finally, someone needs to ask about other books!

She also became slightly excited.

"Spring and Autumn" has few words, but it contains subtle words and great meaning. It records the history of the State of Lu.

In this era, there are not many people who can truly govern the Spring and Autumn Annals.

The three biographies of the Spring and Autumn Period, "The Biography of Zuo Shi in the Spring and Autumn Period", "The Biography of the Spring and Autumn Gongyang", and "The Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period Gu Liang" are other people's interpretations of the "Spring and Autumn Annals".

From the time of Lu, we can deduce the reasons why this happened in other countries.

Until later generations, the "Chun Qiu" and the "Chun Qiu Zuo Shi Zhuan" were merged, with the "Chun Qiu" part being the classics and the newly added part being the "Zhuan".

"Xia, Qi Luanshi is here to run." Cheng Song thought for a moment and said, "I wonder what the young gentleman can teach me?"

Huang Yueying only thought for a few seconds and said,

"Qi Hui, Luan, and the Gao family were both old men and women, and they had a lot of resentment in their letters. They were stronger than Chen, and the Bao family hated them. In the summer, someone reported to Chen Huanzi, saying: 'Zi Banner, Ziliang will attack Chen and Bao.' He also reported to the Bao family.

When Huanzi gave him armor, he was just like Bao. When Ziliang was drunk and galloping, he met Wenzi and he also gave him armor.

If you look at the two sons, they will drink wine. Huanzi said: "Although they don't believe it, they will chase me away when they hear that I have given armor. If they drink wine, attack them first?"

Chen and Bao Fangmu then attacked Luan and Gao."

Cheng Song listened and nodded.

Huang Yueying continued,

"Zi Liang said: 'First get the public, Chen, Bao, where can we go?'

Then he attacked Humen.

Yan Ping and Zhongduan were appointed outside Humen, and the four tribes summoned him, but they had nowhere to go.

His disciples asked: "Assist Chen, Baohu?" He said: "What's so good about it?"

"How high is it to help Luan?" He said: "How high is it to be better than mediocrity?"

'Then you will return?' He said: 'How can you return after your attack?' The public summoned him and came in behind him.

The public divination envoy Wang Hei led Linggu's spear, Ji, please cut off three feet and use it. In the fifth month of Gengchen, he fought in Ji and Luan, and was defeated by Gao and Zhuangzhuang. The people of the country pursued him and defeated Lumen again.

"Luan Shi and Gao Qiang came to run. Chen and Bao divided their houses."

In this section, Cheng Song quoted from the Spring and Autumn Annals, while Huang Yueying completed the annotations on this verse from the Zuo Zhuan to explain what happened in this verse.

The Luan family and the Gao family of Qi Huigong were both fond of drinking. They were more powerful than the Chen family and the Bao family, but they hated the Chen family and the Bao family.

So someone reported to Chen and Bao that they were going to beat you. So the latter started to send out soldiers.

When they sent someone to inquire, they found that the two people were not attacking them, but were just drinking. Chen's Huanzi said: "Although it is not true that they are attacking us, they will definitely attack us when they hear that we are distributing weapons and armor."

Exile us. How about attacking them first while they are drinking?"

Then Chen and Bao went to attack the Luan and Gao families.

As a result, the Luan family and the Gao family planned to capture the monarch first and then attack Humen.

Yan Pingzhong was standing outside Humen. Four families asked him to help, but he didn't go.

His apprentice asked, "Will you help Chen and Bao Ershi?"

Yan Pingzhong asked, what good things have they done?

The disciple asked again, are those Luan people tall?

Yan Pingzhong asked again, have they done anything good?

He didn't go to see the king until King Qi summoned him, and then someone led troops to put down the rebellion.

This was the failed version of "holding the emperor to order the princes" during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. However, they failed and ran away to the State of Lu.

Only then did Qi Luanshi come to Ben.

Cheng Song continued to listen, and felt that the knowledge of this young gentleman... was really no worse than that of the adults who had already been crowned, so he said, "It can be seen that it is difficult for an unjust teacher to achieve great things."

Huang Yueying nodded, yes, how could this inexplicable attempt to coerce the emperor and order the princes... be successful, "Exactly."

"Xun Shizhong also said that when the Duke of Jin welcomes King Xiang, the princes will follow; when Gaozu serves as the Righteous Emperor and obeys Su, the world will return." Cheng Song continued.

"So, today the princes are all allowed, and Cao Sikong will order the princes." Huang Yueying said with a smile again.
