Say! Four ways to write the Chinese character 回!

[There is murderous intent! ]

Xu Yanmiao suddenly shouted in an earth-shaking voice.

The entire court was startled.

They could have skillfully ignored some of Xu Yanmiao's less important voices, and reported what should be reported, impeached what should be impeached, and quarreled with what should be quarreled.

But this "there is murderous intent" was really too terrifying.

The officials quickly glanced around without making a fuss.

Murderous intent? Where? Nowhere?

The commander of the Jinyiwei stood on the west side of the throne, and it was almost a conditioned reflex to draw his sword to protect the emperor. After reacting, he glanced in the direction of Xu Yanmiao with resentment.

Can you not be so startled? This is in the court!

Xu Yanmiao looked around, still feeling happy.

[Wow, maybe it's an illusion? But this sentence is really cool, I wanted to say it a long time ago!] He

was very happy, with a sense of beauty that didn't care about other people's lives.

The old emperor glanced at Xu Yanmiao slowly, with a sly smile on his face.

Illusion?

I'll let you know if it's an illusion!

"Xu Yanmiao!"

Xu Yanmiao was startled, and stood up nervously: "Your Majesty?"

The old emperor: "I've heard that you have quick wits."

Xu Yanmiao: "?"

[Who told you this? Am I not lying down and getting rotten enough? 】

The old emperor pretended not to hear and continued: "Do you know the leader of the literary world in the late Zhou Dynasty, Quan Yingzhang of the Quan family in Tianshui?"

Xu Yanmiao nodded solemnly: "I have heard of him."

【Who is this? The leader of the literary world, it sounds quite high-end. 】

The old emperor: "..."

The ministers: "..."

Just be polite, you really don't know!

After the imperial examination, did you throw away all your knowledge points?

The old emperor was in an angry mood, and his rising momentum was interrupted at once, because he had to explain clearly: "Quan Yingzhang was an official in the Zhou court, in charge of court documents, and dominated the literary world for twenty years. After the fall of Zhou, he lived in Tianshui, wrote books, and was invited by the court many times but still refused to serve, saying bluntly that a minister should not serve two masters."

Xu Yanmiao nodded seriously: "Yes!"

The old emperor: "I heard that you have quick wit, so this matter will be handed over to you. Go to Tianshui and persuade Mr. Quan to serve as an official in the court and serve my Great Zhou."

[So who on earth is talking nonsense about my quick wit! Damn it! I'd better not let you find it! ]

[It's winter, and the New Year is almost coming. Who would want to go on a business trip to Tianshui at this time! 】

【And if she doesn't want to be your official, she won't want to be your official. You force her to obey you. Isn't that forcing a good woman into prostitution?】

The old emperor was originally proud that he had finally gotten Xu Yanmiao into trouble.

——Don't you like to be lazy? I'll take you to work.

Then, she was scolded.

What is forcing a good woman into prostitution? Can you talk? You are the only one who has a mouth, right?

The old emperor stroked his beard angrily.

I think there were many famous scholars who were betrayed in the previous dynasty, and I want to give every famous scholar who was betrayed a home!

As for the ministers, they were already beaten to death by the word "prostitute" and could only stare at Xu Yanmiao without saying a word.

Xu Yanmiao looked obedient and said to the old emperor: "I obey your order."

Xu Yanmiao asked obediently: "Your Majesty, as long as we can invite people here, can we use any method?"

The old emperor: "Yes, but they must come with you voluntarily and cannot be forced."

Xu Yanmiao: "Yes!"

[Then I burned his house and he ran back with a machete chasing me. Is that also voluntary?]

The old emperor: "..."

He bit his itchy teeth: "Must be voluntarily to serve!"

The word "serve" was emphasized.

Xu Yanmiao: "Yes!"

[Strange, why do I feel that the tone of the old emperor's speech is a bit strange? 】

The old emperor said expressionlessly: "You can set off now. The carriage is ready."

*

Of course, Xu Yanqi was not just allowed to set off by himself. Tianshui was thousands of miles away. For his safety, the old emperor also deployed a team of royal guards.

When they finally arrived at Tianshui, Xu Yanqi covered her buttocks, which were bent into eighteen pieces, and got out of the car as if running away.

Jin Yiwei asked him if he wanted to go to the hotel to rest, but Xu Yanjie refused.

"Get rid of it quickly and I can go home quickly!"

He stopped at Daru's door and knocked respectfully. The other party knew that he was from the imperial court and did not embarrass him. However, after inviting him in, Daru did not come out. The person who entertained him was Daru's grandson.

The other party said politely: "Angel, please go back. My father-in-law is old and can no longer serve the emperor."

Xu Yanmiao did not continue to talk about this content, but just showed a shy smile: "I heard that Mr. Quan adheres to tradition in his studies and is proficient in ancient texts. I came to ask Mr. Quan for advice."

Quan Xie was very surprised: "You study ancient texts - I mean, what do you want to ask my father-in-law?"

It's no wonder that he was so surprised. Nowadays, most students in the academic world study classics, which are divided into two major schools: modern text and ancient text. Among the people, there are many disputes between the two, but in the court, modern text classics have already prevailed.

The difference between the New Text School and the Old Text School is probably the difference between "Confucius is the most awesome, Confucius used the past to reform the system" and "Confucius is also awesome, but Duke Zhou is the most awesome, Confucius is just stating Duke Zhou's ideas."

The purpose of the New Text School is to understand the classics and apply them to practical use, adapt to the times, and combine the theory with the needs of current politics.

The Old Text School pursues the correct understanding of the classics, focusing on studying the ideological content of the classics and annotating the classics.

Xu Yanmo: "I would like to ask Mr. Quan..."

He looked at the gossip in the system interface, "Quan Yingzhang is eavesdropping on Xu Yanmiao's conversation with his grandson Quan Xie," and smiled slyly.

"How many ways are there to write the word '回'?"

Quan Xie was confused: "What?"

What kind of question is this?

Xu Yanmiao said it very sincerely: "I heard from the officials in the court that scholars of ancient texts often spend their whole lives studying the classics, and are especially good at nitpicking. They are the most meticulous in classics, and can even figure out the several ways to write the word '回'. I am very curious, so I took this opportunity to come and ask for advice."

The words are all good, but they are carefully graded...

Anyway, Quan Xie tightened his grip on the teacup. If he hadn't thought that the person opposite was the emperor's envoy, he would have thrown the teacup at him.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the side room: "

You are so rude!" - Who are you to blame for being so weird!

An old man came out with a cane and glared at Xu Yanmiao: "Who told you that ancient text classics are so literal!"

Xu Yanmiao answered very crisply: "Everyone in the court said so."

He shouted happily: "I have met Lord Quan!"

Quan Yingzhang glanced at him. Even though he knew it was a provocation, he couldn't help but feel that his school was slandered: "Go back and tell them that modern text classics are the words of the wild people in Qidong. How can a frog in the well understand the true meaning of ancient text classics?"

As for becoming an official? It was just a provocation. This kid looked down on him too much.

"Yes! I will definitely bring it!" Xu Yanmiao's eyes sparkled: "How many ways are there to write the word '回'?"

Quan Yingzhang said indifferently: "We have never studied this before."

"But the ancient classics are the source of sound and characters, and the interpretation of chapters and sentences..." "

The study of wild and reckless is really vulgar! The interpretation of chapters and sentences is to interpret, study, and seek truth from facts, but you have slandered it as a word of intensive study, which is ridiculous! You are now learning to agree with the emperor's policies, to quote classics to flatter the superiors, and to speak of great righteousness to exercise power, so you need to pick out chapters and sentences and talk nonsense!"

"Yes!" Xu Yanmiao nodded seriously. Quan

Yingzhang waited for him to refute.

After a dozen breaths, Quan Yingzhang frowned: "You don't have anything to say?"

Xu Yanmiao shook his head honestly and said honestly: "I don't understand this."

Quan Yingzhang: "..." It felt like he hadn't even gotten out of his breath, but it was held back.

Xu Yanmiao: "And more, they all say that Zhouli is a book of conspiracy, that the system is based on feudal fiefdoms, and that the economy promotes the well-field system similar to the royal field system. This kind of thinking is very flattering to the aristocratic families."

"Bullshit about his ancestors!" Quan Yingzhang was furious: "The original name of "Zhou Li" was "Zhou Guan". It is neither a classic nor a legend. It only describes in detail the official system of the Zhou Dynasty. It tells history for people today and lets them understand the ancient system."

Quan Yingzhang spoke with particular spirit: "It's only because you modern scholars are greedy for power. In order to implement policies and satisfy the emperor's preferences, you often force the saints to follow your principles. Your hearts are full of business and your eyes are full of political intentions."

He looked at Xu Yanmo with disdain: "Modern studies? Just vulgar things made by vulgar people!"

Xu Yanmo: "Yeah!"

He continued to nod vigorously: "You are so awesome!"

Quan Yingzhang: "..."

Although the other party obviously agreed with the principles of ancient studies, Quan Yingzhang felt particularly aggrieved.

Quan Yingzhang: "Is that all you want to say?"

Xu Yanmiao said sincerely: "I don't understand these, and I can't debate the classics, but I feel that what you said is very reasonable! Especially profound!"

Quan Yingzhang was not happy at all, and the tightness in his chest became more obvious.

Xu Yanmiao: "And more..."

Quan Yingzhang interrupted angrily: "You don't understand the classics, what are you asking!"

"Ah?" Xu Yanmiao's tone was very cautious: "I just asked because I don't understand... Can't I ask? All the voices in the court said this about ancient texts and classics, I just want to verify it realistically..."

Quan Yingzhang took a deep breath: "I'm sleepy, you go back first, if you need advice, I'll talk to you next time." "

Okay!" Xu Yanmiao left happily.

Quan Xie glanced at his grandfather: "Grandfather, he is deliberately provoking you."

Quan Yingzhang nodded: "I know, I will not be fooled by such a superficial provocation."

...

In the middle of the night.

Quan Yingzhang sat up from the bed, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

"Vermilion scholar!"

"Yusheng!"

"Vulgar scholar! Clinging to the old and flawed! Not examining the facts! Heretical heresy! Talking nonsense!"

Today, it seemed that he was refuting the malicious intentions of the modern literature school against the ancient literature school, but Quan Yingzhang just felt a sense of frustration of bullying the illiterate, and felt that the words he cursed out were hitting the air.

I stayed up all night with my eyes closed, and the next day -

"No, I can't swallow this breath!"

Quan Yingzhang found Xu Yanmiao: "I can go with you, but not to enter the government, but to debate the scriptures!"

Xu Yanmiao nodded, still so obedient: "Okay, Lord Quan."

...

When Xu Yanmiao reported back, the old emperor was completely confused: "How did you invite people?"

Xu Yanmiao: "Lord Quan is here to debate the scriptures."

At least he was invited! I have used the invitation to debate the scriptures before, but the other party has always politely refused.

No matter.

The old emperor was very shocked: "Xu Yanmiao, you are really quick-witted."

I was just talking casually!

Xu Yanmiao: "Ah?"

The old emperor: "Oh, I mean, many people failed to invite Lord Quan, but you succeeded."

Xu Yanmiao's eyes flickered for a moment: "Your Majesty, I used a little tricks and told a little lies, so... please forgive me, my colleagues."

Ministers: "???"

Some bad premonitions.

After a while...

an eighty-year-old man with a dark face stood in front of them angrily, and slammed his cane heavily on the ground.

"Who ridiculed my ancient classics! Stand up!"

Ministers: "???"

Wait, when will we...

Although we study modern classics, why do we criticize ancient classics? There are no people studying ancient classics in the court, who has the time to talk about that stuff?
