The King's Style?!
Virtue of a Concubine? !
Dr. Yang's discussion on "Guanju" was like a thunderclap in a clear sky, exploding in everyone's mind. Even though he had finished speaking, the aftereffects still lingered in everyone's mind for a long time.
How can "Guanju" be interpreted in this way? ! ! !
Dr. Yang's discussion on "Guanju" seems to have opened the door to another world for everyone, making people suddenly enlightened and refreshed.
For a moment, everyone was immersed in the lingering voice of Dr. Yang and was stunned.
The lecture room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"Slurp..."
The sound of drinking tea broke the silence in the room.
Dr. Yang on the podium looked in the direction of the sound and discovered something unusual in the lecture room - the boy named Zhu sitting in the corner was drinking tea with his head down. The reason he made a slurping sound was probably because the tea was too hot.
It's really a rotten tree that can't be carved!
Everyone else was convinced by the judgment he made and fell into deep thought, but this rotten wood was still drinking tea!
How thirsty can you be? Will you die if you drink less?!
Dr. Yang gave Zhu Ping'an a look of contempt, letting him slowly understand what was happening. Unfortunately, the flower had intentions but the water flowed mercilessly. Someone lowered his head and drank seriously, and did not see Dr. Yang's emotional glance at all.
Next, Dr. Yang had no time to pay attention to Zhu Ping'an, the laggard, because the others had already come to their senses.
"good!"
“Wonderful, really wonderful!”
After Zhu Ping'an drank tea, a burst of applause suddenly broke out in the lecture room, and then quickly spread like wildfire.
"Great! Such a kingly demeanor! Such a virtuous queen! Dr. Yang's interpretation of "Guanju" is the finishing touch. Every word is a classic and every sentence is a legend. Haha, after Dr. Yang, I'm afraid no one dares to comment on "Guanju" lightly anymore."
After listening to Dr. Yang's speech on Guanju, Mr. Zhang, the chief lecturer of Prince Jing's Palace, could not help but stand up and praised Dr. Yang on the podium. He spoke very highly of Dr. Yang's speech on "the style of a king and the virtue of a concubine."
Mr. Zhang is a rather old-fashioned person, and Dr. Yang's discussion of the king's demeanor and the virtues of concubines really touched his heart.
"A conversation with you is worth more than ten years of reading. Dr. Yang has reached the pinnacle of the Book of Songs with this statement. Haha, if we have the opportunity to work with Dr. Yang in the Prince Jing's Mansion in the future, we will be blessed to hear it..."
Ma Huating praised Dr. Yang highly. He winked at Dr. Yang on the podium and seemed to hint at something in his words.
"Well, it's good. Dr. Yang's efforts over the past month have not been in vain. This interpretation of 'the style of the king and the virtue of the concubine' can be regarded as the most innovative and profound interpretation of 'Guanju' in the past hundred years."
Old Master Liu squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, looking at Yang Guoliang and nodded twice, praising him highly.
"The demeanor of a king, the virtue of a concubine... Interesting..."
Gao Gong repeated it softly and looked up at Yang Guoliang on the stage. This was the first time he looked at Yang Guoliang straight in the eye and he seemed to be looking at him in a new light.
By the way, if Yang Guoliang knew that this was the first time Gao Gong looked at him straight in the eye, I wonder what he would feel.
"Yangshida Talent..."
Prince Yu raised his head and looked at Yang Guoliang, his eyes full of admiration.
"If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening... Thank you very much, Master Yang, for your teaching. After listening to Master Yang's interpretation of "Guanju", Zaizhen was enlightened and benefited a lot. Confucius said in the past that "Guanju" is 'joyful but not lewd, sad but not hurt', but Zaizhen didn't quite understand it. Today, after a conversation with Master Yang, I finally understood the true meaning of Confucius. 'Joyful but not lewd, sad but not hurt', so Guanju is happy to find a virtuous woman to marry a gentleman, and is worried about promoting virtuous people without being lewd; it mourns for the graceful and thinks about the talented, but has no intention of hurting the good. This is the original meaning of Guanju. Master Yang is very talented. In the future, if Zaizhen has any confusion about the Five Classics, he will definitely ask Master Yang for advice. I hope Master Yang will not think it is troublesome for Zaizhen."
King Jing smiled slightly and bowed to thank Yang Guoliang on the stage, and his evaluation of Yang Guoliang rose several levels.
Yang Guoliang truly lives up to his reputation.
His talent surpasses his reputation.
Thinking about what the eunuch whispered to him when he came to Prince Jing's mansion today to deliver his father's oral instructions, a gleam of light flashed in Prince Jing's eyes, and the look he gave Yang Guoliang was even more enthusiastic and sincere.
"No, no, these are just some of Yang's immature opinions. I am really ashamed to receive your praise."
Yang Guoliang was in high spirits. He faced everyone, smiled and shook his head, saying repeatedly that he did not deserve the honor.
Then, he bowed to King Jing and said, "How dare I? As long as Your Highness does not mind my humble opinion, Guo Liang is willing to sweep the bed and make tea for Your Highness every day."
"The demeanor of a king, the virtue of a queen... Haha, if this is Master Yang's humble opinion, I'm afraid no one will be able to speak in the future." King Jing said with a smile.
"Shame on me, shame on me..." Dr. Yang said with a smile.
"Dr. Yang, please stop being so modest. If you continue to be so modest, we will be too embarrassed to see anyone."
"Haha, yes..."
Ma Huating and others praised Yang Guoliang again.
The atmosphere is very good.
"Ahem..."
At this moment, a discordant sound suddenly came, as if the throat was choked by tea.
Who is it
It was such an eyesore that everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
"Ahem... Sorry..."
Zhu Ping'an put one fist to his lips and held the teacup in the other hand. He coughed and apologized to everyone, as if he had accidentally choked on the tea.
"Haha, I think Mr. Zhu seems to have a different opinion on Dr. Yang's theory of "Guanju"? Why not tell us about it?"
Ma Huating looked at Zhu Ping'an with a sinister smile, and pulled the corner of his mouth to say that he had long looked down on Zhu Ping'an.
A young man who relied on flattery, fawning and opportunism to get to the top, and was so greedy for money that he would not hesitate to mess with pig offal.
When you take the imperial examination this year, you should read the Collected Commentaries on the Four Books with my annotations.
Humph, now you are qualified to teach the prince together with us? ! When did the threshold for the imperial teacher become so low? !
Seeing Zhu Ping'an like this at this moment, he frowned even more. You are a fake and a phony. It would be fine if you could just find a corner and get away with it, but you actually behaved so shamefully.
Everyone was listening to the sutras attentively, but you were drinking tea on the side. Drinking tea would have been fine, but you actually choked? !
Shameless!
rude!
inability!
Since you have brought this upon yourself, don't blame me for bringing disgrace upon you. Ma Huating looked at Zhu Ping'an with a sinister smile, and with one sentence he put Zhu Ping'an at the center of attention.
"Oh, I see. I was wondering if Lord Zhu was distracted when I was discussing The Guanju. Haha, Lord Zhu is young and promising, so he must have something to say. Lord Zhu, please teach me something. I will listen attentively."
Yang Guoliang squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Ping'an. He stretched out his right hand, made a gesture of invitation, and spoke slowly.
There was a faint smell of gunpowder in the air...
