Fifty-five Kong Yingda, the haunted ghost (Part 2)
After figuring this joint, Suning smiled helplessly and began to look at the appearance of this school. This was the first time I was listening to a class in an ancient school. It was antique. There was a bronze cauldron in each corner, with a total of about forty seats. Each seat was covered with a soft cushion and no chairs! Then there was a table with pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it. Well, rice paper was indeed precious. There seemed to be only one piece of rice paper on a table, and all the rest were, um, hard yellow paper, and the texture was better than the paper used as a dark banknote. The price was from the sky and the ground. It was absolutely not good to have good things, it was too cheap. It was too unprofitable...
But even the highest royal institution like Hongwenguan cannot afford enough paper. You can see how precious paper is at present. So papermaking is an indispensable part of its own series of wealth plans. Of course, the benefits of papermaking are forever, and it must be dedicated to the country and to the great His Majesty Li Er. Then His Majesty Li Er stood in front of the stage and enjoyed the flowers and applause. As the inventor, Suning should enjoy a little dividend behind the scenes...
Suning was still thinking about his plan to make money here, but when he looked up, he saw an old man with gray beard standing in front of these students. His eyes were staring at him blankly. Seeing that he also looked at him, he smiled slightly, looked away, glanced at everyone and said, "I, Kong Yingda, thanks to His Majesty's grace. From today on, I am the owner of this Hongwen Hall. I believe you have heard of my name, right?
Haha, I am not very strict in teaching, and my studies will not be very heavy. It will definitely be improved compared to your previous ones, but I said, you must do it, otherwise, Your Majesty will give you a ruler to prepare for you! No matter what your identity is, what your parents are, you will enter the school! You are a student! You are a disciple of me! If you fail to meet the requirements, violate discipline, disrespect teachers and elders, and bully classmates, I will definitely punish you severely! There is no other way!"
After saying that, the old man raised a long ruler made of unknown material in his hand. Suddenly, there was a sound of saliva around him...
Suning is not the ruler, but the person...
Kong Yingda...
Didn’t this old guy stay at home for a day and night, and still doesn’t come out of the study until now? What about not eating or drinking water for a day and a night? What about being in a daze? What about being weak and weak? What about being mobilized by the whole family?! Can the old guy who doesn’t eat every day and a night have such spirit?! What about cheating father!
His face is rosy, full of energy, and he is very energetic. Is this what a person who doesn’t eat or drink a day or night should look like?! This guy is cheating! This is not scientific!
I just told this old guy yesterday that the court was still a bit complacent, thinking that he had the style of Kong Ming fighting against many scholars. However, when he looked at Kong Yingda at that moment, Suning read something called "interest" from Kong Yingda's eyes. Suning suddenly realized it. He suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be the imperial edict from His Majesty Li Er to reach the Kong family?
His Majesty Li Er knew that Kong Yingda was not sick but lonely, so he told Kong Yingda about Suning's study. By the way, he asked Master Kong if he had any idea of becoming the head of the Hongwen Hall. His Majesty Li Er's ability to figure out people's hearts has reached the point of perfection. An imperial edict gave Kong Yingda a shot of chicken blood, and opened a halo of encouragement. Kong Yingda had a BUFF and was immediately resurrected with full blood, and came to Hongwen Hall with a bright spirit...
No, isn't this old man still holding a position in the office? That is a very important position of power. He came specifically to refute the emperor's will, and he was specifically against His Majesty Li Er. If this old man has time to teach at Hongwenguan, it is probably just a guest appearance in a friendly manner? But what does the position of the owner mean? Honorary owner?
"Do you have to worry that I will not have time to teach you because of official duties? Don't worry at all. I have resigned from my position as a staff member. From now on, I will be the owner of Hongwen Hall and teach you carefully!" Old Man Kong's mouth showed a smug smile, especially when he saw Suning's bolt from the blue, he felt extremely happy! Boy, I want to see how much you have. As His Majesty said, close to the water, take out everything you know!
Such news is not good news for Suning or the students of Hongwenguan. Kong Yingda is a descendant of Confucius. The emperor must treat him with courtesy and punish him, but he cannot do any substantial actions. Whatever he does to Kong Yingda is to shake his ruling foundation, unless Kong Yingda treason or treason against foreigners...
This is the case with the emperor, let alone other people. Kong Yingda's knowledge and status are all very safe for others. Other old scholars may have some concerns, but Kong Yingda doesn't need it. Who dares to defeat Kong Laoer? At least no one dares...
Suning immediately understood! Li Er, this guy, killed three birds with one stone! He brought Kong Yingda into Hongwenguan to concentrate on academics. He could arrange a flatterer to serve as an important position in the school to reduce the constraints on his imperial power! By the way, let Kong Yingda test himself carefully to see how many unknown things he knows, and to dig out his own foundation! Then he could use Kong Yingda's reputation to shock the playboys, improve the teaching level of the Hongwenguan Academy, improve the academic level of these playboys, and also explain to the heroes and royal relatives...
Li Chengqian suddenly felt a sense of despair. Changsun Chong, who woke up, also felt the breath of the weak. The other second generations of the emperor and the second generation of officials also felt the disappearance of freedom...
"Before I came, I asked the teacher who taught you in the past, and I had more or less aware of your level of waiting. As Confucius said, I will not deliberately ask you for anything I asked you for help, but I can rest assured that I am the Sanyuan Bo Suning, I don't know you very well." Old man Kong really opened fire at Suning...
Suning stood up with a tough bullet.
"I heard that you were studying with your deceased master before. What you learned was very complicated, extensive and practical. I admire this point very much, so that your master is a master. But what exactly are you learning and how do you learn? What books have you read? You have to tell me that I can decide what method to teach you." Old man Kong slowly walked to Suning with a smile on his face.
Reading? The Four Books and Five Classics? Suning has always been busy making up for the aspirations of the Tang Dynasty. He really doesn't know much about cultural aspects such as the Four Books and Five Classics. There are other books that have no understanding of any of them.
Suning took a deep breath, recalled the old man's education method, and said, "The disciples are not very clear about this. Master led his disciples to teach them all the way. What they said is what the disciples saw and heard along the way. For example, when Master saw someone stealing other people's belongings, he would first ask the disciples what this was, why it happened, and how to solve it. When he saw someone fighting, he would ask the disciples why people argued and fought, where was the root of the problem, and how to solve it.
It rains, Master will also ask the disciples why it rains and snows in the sky, Master will also ask the disciples why it snows and droughts, Master will also ask the disciples why it is drought, the people have no harvest, Master will also ask why it is. Master rarely gives the disciples some clear answers, because Master thinks that there are not so many standard answers in the world, and all questions change constantly with the passage of time, the questions are changing, and the answers are also changing, and nothing is unchanging.
The disciple has never seen any book that Master has taken to explain the essence of the book to his disciples, but he has kept taking his disciples to see all kinds of things and explaining various principles. Master said that the greatest knowledge in the world is in the world. After seeing through the world, all the principles will be understood. At that time, reading is actually to cultivate one's own self-cultivation and happiness, and it has nothing to do with real knowledge, because the knowledge in books is also what our ancestors saw, heard, thought, thought, and gained. The problems and solutions from thousands of years ago have long been changed beyond recognition. If it were just the principles in reading, then it would never solve any practical problems.
Reading is to learn from the spirit of our ancestors to study hard, to pursue truth, and to be determined to maintain the quality of our original heart, rather than the book itself. If we blindly recognize the truth and read books to death, we only know how to absorb the knowledge in the book, but do not know how to make any transcendence and change, and be self-confidence, then we can only read as a nerd, and have no purpose in the country, the people, and even the family. Therefore, the disciple has never read a book, nor know what books to read. Please tell the disciple."
After saying that, Suning bowed to Kong Yingda. When he raised his head, Kong Yingda was already shocked. His mouth opened slightly and stared at Suning, unable to speak. Others were not much better than Kong Yingda. The youngest ones were about eight or nine years old. They began to understand some truths. They almost heard everything Suning said, and naturally they understood what Suning meant.
Li Chengqian was completely shocked. He really didn't expect that Suning had such an experience, and he really didn't expect that Suning would learn like this. If he could study like this and travel around the world like this, would he be the same as Suning? Thinking back on the boring books taught to him by the old scholars, Li Chengqian felt an unprecedented disgust!
