In total silence.
Choi Hyeon sighed helplessly when he heard "Everyone, don't put down your food."
He doesn't want to starve!
Then Cui Xian also stood up and said, "Master, you haven't asked your students to recite yet."
He was a new student and his progress was different from that of the other students. The content that the teacher had left for him to recite yesterday was the chapter on government from the Analects of Confucius.
In order to teach Cui Xian, Wu Qinglan even led all the students in the class to read the "Governing" chapter together.
Therefore, if any student here uses his brain, he will realize that the answer to this question is hidden in the chapter on government!
Seeing Cui Xian stand up on his own initiative, Master Wu was stunned for a moment, then he coughed lightly and said, "Then you recite it."
He deliberately omitted Cui Xian because he was afraid that the child had just arrived and was not in the right state and would not be able to recite.
As a result, the child was honest and stood up by himself.
then.
Then Cui Xian's clear voice was heard.
"The Master said: To govern with virtue is like the North Star, which stays in its place and all the other stars revolve around it..."
He spoke clearly, his sentences were punctuated in a pleasant rhythm, and he recited word for word.
All the students in the class were stunned.
No, the teacher just read it with him once yesterday.
Moreover, Cui Xian returned home early from school.
Will this happen today?
Master Wu was pleasantly surprised and praised him generously, "Dashan, please sit down. It's tiring to stand."
Other students standing:?
Unexpectedly, Cui Xian did not sit down, but said: "Master, I would like to try to answer the question just now."
ah?
Now, even Pei Jian and others looked sideways.
You can only recite the chapter on government, and you only listened to part of what Master Wu said yesterday on "Articles of State" and "Three Commentaries".
How to answer this?
Only Wu Qinglan's heart moved, and he said expectantly: "Oh? Then you come and answer it, and speak boldly, it doesn't matter if you are wrong."
Cui Xian smiled and said, "Before the teacher asked the question, he said that the answer could only be quoted from the Analects. Yesterday, he specially led us to read the "Governance" chapter, so I dare to guess that the answer to this question is in the "Governance" chapter."
Wu Qinglan nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of admiration.
This is why the Master likes good students!
It works in one click!
Cui Xian continued, "Yesterday, I listened to the Master's teachings. Zhang Yi said that Qin used 'Heng Lian' to break the Zong, like breaking the dam to divert the water, and using the momentum of the princes' fighting to build Qin's cause."
"It can be seen that the momentum is like a rock floating in the rushing water."
"But there is a saying in the chapter on government, Confucius said: A gentleman is not an instrument."
"So, the real situation lies in the people's support, not just the military."
After he said this, the whole room fell silent.
So...it can be interpreted this way?
Wu Qinglan couldn't help but clap his hands and praise: "Well said! Well said, the real power lies in the people's support, not just the soldiers!"
After praising.
Master Wu suddenly realized what was happening and looked at Cui Xian in shock: "But I didn't teach you the interpretation of the "Weizheng Pian" yesterday. I only had you read it once."
Cui Xian blinked his eyes and said, "I read it myself and vaguely understood its meaning. I only had a vague understanding at first, but when I woke up in the morning, I suddenly remembered the "National Policy" that the teacher taught me yesterday."
"The two are dialectical and echo each other, and then you will understand it by yourself."
Wh, what?
Hearing this, all the students in the school could hardly believe their ears.
Is this...reasonable?
Everyone looked at Cui Xian with stunned and wide-eyed expressions, thinking they were looking at a "monster".
Wu Qinglan stared at Cui Xian for a long time, and then was moved to tears in public, saying in a trembling voice: "Genius! A natural born scholar!"
"God has been kind to me, Wu Qinglan, by assigning me such a talented scholar as my student!"
Yes, very spiritual!
Others just read books mechanically.
But he can easily draw inferences from one example, make dialectical arguments, and combine classics and history!
This question seems not difficult.
But what is hidden behind this is that an eight-year-old child has used his clever mind to interpret Confucian ethics and political intrigues vividly!
How could Wu Qinglan not be amazed and even moved to tears?
What is more worthy of attention is.
Cui Xian can also compose poems and write beautiful and elegant calligraphy!
It is no exaggeration to say that it is the God of Literature who has descended to earth.
Looking at Cui Xian who was talking eloquently in class with a confident smile, Wu Qinglan was shocked and thought in his heart: He is only eight years old.
Eight years old!
This child will definitely rise to a high position in the future!
Just when Wu Qinglan was looking at Cui Xian like a treasure and was so excited that he almost fainted.
Then one of the students said weakly, "Teacher, since Cui Xian has answered the question, can we have dinner now?"
Wu Qinglan's expression suddenly changed, and he said angrily: "Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat, are you gluttons? Keep reciting for me!"
Students: “…”
So this day.
When practicing writing.
The other students handed over their calligraphy, and Wu Qinglan flew into a rage: "What is written on it? Look at what it is written on it yourself. It recognizes me, but I can't recognize it! Go back and rewrite it!"
Cui Xian handed over the calligraphy.
Wu Qinglan's face was wrinkled with laughter, his eyes were shining, and he clapped his hands and laughed: "Good! Very good! One reward ticket, no, two reward tickets!"
It's time for dinner.
The other students were so hungry that they felt dizzy.
Wu Qinglan took Cui Xian to eat: "Let's go early, otherwise the food will be cold."
And then.
"Cui Xian answered the question today, it is recorded in the book and one point is added."
"Cui Xian will be rewarded with a ticket after reciting the Zilu chapter."
"Cui Xian... add one point..."
"Cui Xian...reward ticket..."
After a whole day, the students in the classroom looked numb.
Isn’t this reward and punishment system a bit redundant?
Just give all the points and reward tickets directly to him!
It's time to go home from school.
Cui Xian stuffed a thick stack of reward tickets into the bookcase, then stood up and smiled at the four elder brothers: "Big brother, three brothers, I'm going home first."
Under the eager gazes of the four people and the envious eyes of all the students in the class, Cui Xian left school early.
Pei Jian was so hungry that his eyes were dizzy: "Huh? Why do I feel like my brother Xian has turned into a big chicken leg?"
Li Heyu was so exhausted from writing that he asked, "How can I write the characters that Old Man Wu knows?"
Zhuang Jin's eyes widened with envy: "I want to finish school too."
Gao Qi was thinking about the stack of reward notes in Cui Xian's bookcase: "Do you think that if I borrow one of Brother Xian's reward notes, it will be enough to get me beaten up tomorrow? Old man Wu is a very ruthless person!"
After saying that.
The four idiots looked at each other in despair, unable to cry.
