Chapter 28 Datang Paper Expensive (two in one)(1/2)
When Li Yuanai heard that Kong Zhiyuan wanted to leave Mobao, he quickly shook his head and refused. At his level, he should not be embarrassed.
After all, I am not from this era. Although I have barely adapted to calligraphy over the years, my writing is only worth watching.
If you really want to leave a book for future generations to appreciate, it would be a joke.
Kong Zhiyuan was full of regret.
Li Yuanai asked Kong Zhiyuan to write it himself.
As the Imperial College Priest, Kong Zhiyuan didn't even dare to write. These twenty-two words were concise and grand, but they explained the most noble ideals of scholars.
As the head of the Imperial College, Kong Zhiyuan's calligraphy will never be bad, but this is not what he said, so how dare he write?
Seeing that the noise was quite disturbing, Li Yuanai winked at Jin Shengman and signaled that he would come to find her again in a few days, and left in a hurry.
Even when Li Yuanai was in the Imperial College, the Hongwen Pavilion also caused a lot of sensation.
When Pei Xingjian was sorting out and destroying the book, he accidentally discovered that there was a book called "Annotation of the Purification of the Book".
Pei Xingjian came from the Pei family, one of the five lords in Hedong. His father Pei Renji was appointed as the Zuo Guanglu official in the Sui Dynasty. His brother Pei Xingyan was a powerful general who was known as the enemy of thousands of people at the end of the Sui Dynasty. He was from a famous family and had a wealthy family. However, his fate was tragic, and his father and brother were killed by Wang Shichong before he was born.
As a posthumous son, he escaped by chance.
Due to the danger of extermination of the clan, Pei Xingjian could only rely on his mother for life and live a hard life. The only luck was that when he was a teenager, as a descendant of a famous family, the orphans of the martyrs were taken care of and trained by the court, and was absorbed as Hongwensheng as Yinsheng.
I stayed in Hongwenguan for ten years. Because of this, Pei Xingjian read a lot of books, astronomy, geography, yin and yang, five elements, and medical fortune-telling and astrology.
"The Art of Approach" is the most profound numerology and numerology book of this era. Pei Xingjian reads everything in Hongwenguan? There are not many books that really stumped him.
"The Art of Approach" is one of them.
As the world's number one in numerology, Wang Xiaotong said that "The Purification of the Stories" is not completely wrong, and Pei Xingjian couldn't understand it either? Naturally, he was affected by the corresponding impact.
I accidentally saw "Annotations on the Appendix" today, and I couldn't help but be surprised? I was curious and found the reading.
"Annotations on the Purification of the Skills" does not state who wrote it? The handwriting is also average? It is insane. I can't help but wonder. Hongwenguan has collected all kinds of books now?
When I opened it, I was stunned immediately.
"The Annotations of the Purifications" do not have any verbal words, and there is no self-report? It was put into the topic from the beginning? It was written in the form of vernacular Chinese.
Pei Xingjian immediately became fascinated by this.
The whole article is simple and clear, and the explanation is to simplify the numerical problems in "Jiaoshu".
"The Art of Approval" is much more complicated than "The Book of Ji Gu Suan Jing", so Li Yuanai used a large number of art of opening, Tianyuan art and multiplication methods in it.
In addition to the art of opening is a product of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", the Tianyuan Technique and the method of increasing multiplication are all cross-era solutions? Li Yuanai specially used a volume to introduce the Tianyuan Technique and the method of increasing multiplication.
Pei Xingjian was fascinated by the fact that he saw it.
"Xingjian, what are you watching while sitting on the ground? Are you lazy here? When is it time? Haven't you moved the books in the inner warehouse to spread it?"
One person came to Pei Xingjian and pushed him.
Pei Xingjian then realized that it was his classmate Cui Zhisheng, and hurriedly said, "Brother Cui? I found a treasure. Who wrote this "Annotation of the Art of Appendix"? It was actually classified as a destruction? It was simply a waste of resources."
Cui Zhisheng said in surprise: "Isn't the "Jiao Shu" all wrong? Mr. Wang removed the "Jiao Shu" from the Hongwen Museum? Why does it have its annotations?"
Pei Xingjian said solemnly: "I thought so too, but after reading this "Annotation of the Enlightenment". Perhaps the one who was wrong was not the father and son of the ancestors, but the Grand Secretary Wang."
Cui Zhisheng's face changed and he said anxiously: "Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Wang is the first master of numerology today, and he is too extreme to let him know that you can't continue to do this in Hongwenguan."
Pei Xingjian smiled and said, "It just so happened that I have been hesitating recently. I am considering whether Hongwenguan has a long-term plan. Maybe it is decided, but it is not impossible."
He said that he put away the "Annotations of the Enlightenment" and went to Yu Zhining, the owner of the Hongwen Pavilion.
Yu Zhining was one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Prince's Mansion under Li Shimin's early years.
Later, he was responsible for the important task of teaching the prince, and also served as the head of the Hongwen Hall.
Pei Xingjian personally handed over the "Annotations of the Enlightenment" to Yu Zhining.
When Yu Zhining saw that it was Pei Xingjian, he accepted it with some caution.
Hongwenguan is similar to the Imperial College, and they are both considered institutions of learning. However, Hongwenguan only accepts dozens of students, all of which are selected as royal nobles and senior Beijing officials, and are taught by bachelors and receive classics and historical calligraphy.
Among this group of students, Pei Xingjian was the most talented one, who was highly valued by him.
Yu Zhining opened the "Annotations on the Purifications", and the more he read it, the more shocked he became. After a while, he said sadly: "As soon as this book was released, Brother Wang's reputation was ruined. Alas, who wrote this book?"
Pei Xingjian said: "Students don't know!"
Yu Zhining said: "You go and check it out and ask who received it. I bring this book to express my opinion. This "Annotation of the Skills" sets a precedent for math interpretation. This person is like Liu Hui of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and has created a new path for math learning."
Although Yu Zhining and Wang Xiaotong have a good relationship, Yu Zhining knows how to choose in the face of major issues.
After checking this, I immediately found that the book was actually sent by Shang King Li Yuanai.
"It's actually the King of Shang? You're not wrong!"
Yu Zhining looked at the student Xie Ji in disbelief. How old is Li Yuanai? There is no shortcut to numerical research. Without decades of research, how could he have such a foundation?
Xie Ji bowed and said, "Students dare not lie. Is it written by King Shang? The students don't know that it was indeed sent by King Shang. Because it was King Shang, the students did not dare to be careless and personally delivered it to Mr. Wang's desk. Mr. Wang served several positions and was not in Hongwenguan at that time. Didn't he leave his name in this book?"
Yu Zhining had read it before, but did not make a name for himself, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Wang is causing a big disaster."
Pei Xingjian smiled bitterly and said, "Students probably didn't even read the "Annotation of the Art of the Skills". Maybe... there is still room for maneuver."
Although Pei Xingjian had not met a mentor on the road of life at this time, his ability to figure out his mind has been revealed.
But at this time, the news about the Imperial College had already reached Hongwenguan.
Yu Zhining stood there for a moment, and when he heard the saying "Set up your mind for the heaven and earth, establish your destiny for the living and the people, inherit the unique knowledge for the past sages, and open peace for all ages" instantly, he felt passionate and said with emotion: "We should be like this!"
As he said that, he entered the palace with "Annotations of the Enlightenment".
Pei Xingjian was already carrying the burden of glorifying his ancestors, and he got the second best sentence, and his blood was rolling, saying, "Brother Cui, I decided to participate in this year's imperial examination. Although Hongwenguan is good, it is not my place for me, Pei Xingjian. We should break out of our shackles and move forward bravely, so that we will not be in vain in this life."
************
Imperial City East Palace!
Yu Zhining also served as the crown prince's left son, and there was no obstacle to meeting Li Zhi when he entered the palace.
Yu Zhining presented the "Annotations on the Appendix".
Li Zhi looked at the handwriting and recognized it at a glance, saying, "Is this the word "Uncle Sixteenth?"
Yu Zhining said: "It is the annotation compiled by the King of Shang for the "Jiaoshu". To be honest, the King of Shang can write a brand new calculation book by himself," he said.
Li Zhi looked through it, but he didn't understand it. What he was interested in was the method of governing the country and ensuring national stability, and his magic was not his best.
"How did Uncle Sixteen write it?"
He put down the book and asked Yu Zhining.
Yu Zhining said: "The content of the annotation can be said to be shocking the past and present! To date, the academic numbers have developed, and have undergone two major changes, a major change in the Wei and Jin Dynasties Liu Hui, and a major change in His Royal Highness Shang. To put it in detail, there is also a major change in Zu Chong's father and son, but "The Art of Punishment" is difficult to understand and cannot be accepted by the world. Now, the Shang King has corrected his name, and Zu Chong's father and son deserve such praise."
Li Zhi was a little stunned and said in surprise: "Will it be too much? You should not praise this because Uncle Sixteen is the King of Shang, so as not to laugh at the future generations."
Yu Zhining shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Who dares to do this? The King of Shang's words were shocking. It won't be long before I believe that all the students of the Tang Dynasty will know the name of the King of Shang."
Li Zhi blinked his eyes and said that his sixteenth uncle's virtue could be passed down to the world?
Yu Zhining told Li Zhi all the news he received.
Li Zhi was also stunned. He didn't expect that Li Yuanai could say such exciting words. Even he was extremely touched when he heard it. But then his brows frowned slightly, thinking that his uncle was too disregarded and he actually made useless efforts in numerology and did not understand the priorities of the matter at all.
In the current situation, it is obvious that Lawyer Pei, whom he asked him to investigate, is the most important thing!
If Lawyer Pei doesn’t check it, why bother fiddling with the number of techniques!
Yu Zhining continued: "In fact, regarding this "Annotation of the Enlightenment", the ministers can only peek at one or two of them. If they really want to understand the whole picture, they can only call the Grand Historian Li Chunfeng to comment."
The more Li Zhiben thought about it, the more angry he became, but when Yu Zhining talked about Li Chunfeng, he suddenly linked the position of Lawyer Pei with Li Chunfeng.
I understood instantly.
My sixteenth uncle wanted to start with Li Chunfeng and contact Lawyer Pei through him to understand the situation.
Thinking of this, Li Zhi was not only smiling bitterly but also making such a big noise just to investigate a lawyer Pei?
If he really wants to do something big, he will be able to stab the sky?
Soon the news reached the inner palace and reached Li Shimin.
"Annotations on the Appendix" also came to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin also couldn't understand it very well, but he had a close relationship with Li Chunfeng and often asked him about the methods of health preservation and the methods of longevity.
Especially when he returned from Goguryeo, Li Shimin summoned Li Chunfeng more and more times.
But this time, it was not because of health preservation, but because of "Annotations of the Enlightenment".
The hall was silent.
Li Shimin leaned on Hu's bed, looked at Li Chunfeng's shocked expression, thinking.
No one knows the exquisiteness of "Annotations of the Enlightenment" better than Li Chunfeng.
From the beginning, his attitude was different from Wang Xiaotong.
Wang Xiaotong said "The Purification of the Stories" worthless, while Li Chunfeng felt that "The Purification of the Stories" was too profound, which led to their inability to understand.
To be continued...
