The "Declaration Form" that Zhang Yue came to in his dream.
"Declaration Form" is Zhong Yao's famous calligraphy. It is said that Zhong Yao practiced calligraphy very diligently. Regardless of the occasion or place, he would write whenever he had time and practice whenever he had the opportunity. Sit with people and talk, and practice on the ground around you. When I rested at night, I used the quilt as paper. As a result, a big hole was made in the quilt over time.
However, the original post of the "Declaration Form" said that during the Eight Kings Rebellion, Director Wang sewed it into his lapel and carried it across the river, and then gave it to his nephew Wang Xizhi, who in turn gave it to Wang Xiu. Wang Xiu liked this post very much and was buried with it after his death.
The "Declaration Form" that is now passed down is believed to have come from Wang Xizhi, and has been included in the "Chunhua Pavilion Notes" in the royal secret collection of the Song Dynasty.
When Zhang Yue wrote the first character "Shang" in the "Declaration Form", he encountered a setback and was not satisfied no matter how he wrote it.
Zhang Yue also knew that it was because of his insufficient writing power.
But luckily it took some effort.
In addition to talent, the most important thing in calligraphy is kungfu. Isn’t Zhong Yao very diligent in practicing calligraphy? Even when I was sleeping, I scratched the sheets with my fingers until there were big holes in the sheets.
But no matter how diligent Zhong Yao is, can he be as idle as himself?
While practicing calligraphy here, Zhang Yue's writing skills were as good as usual.
On weekdays, Zhang Yue couldn't bear to stay here for six hours, so he only read for five hours most of the time. Now Zhang Yue forces himself to write for six hours, and he perseveres.
Moreover, Zhang Yue planned to study for two hours, then write for two hours, and finally study for two hours. If so, he would finish the six hours before quitting.
It rained all night.
When Zhang Yue woke up the next day, the basin in the house was filled with rainwater.
Scenes of leaks in huts have long been commonplace.
Zhang Yue dipped water into the earthen basin next to the bed and wrote on the table, "The Minister declares that Sun Quan..." His writing skills improved slightly at first sight.
On the side, Guo Lin happened to come back from the shower. Seeing Zhang Yue practicing calligraphy so diligently, he thought it was a good idea, and then he also put his finger on the earthen pot beside the bed... After writing a few words, he didn't understand, and put it on the tip of his tongue...
Guo Lin and Zhang Yue put on their clothes, drank two bowls of porridge, and then went to the Zhang family to learn. Along the way, Zhang Yue saw Guo Lin frequently rubbing his fingers on the bark of the tree. For some reason...
They entered ethnology through the back door.
Yesterday when they walked through the main entrance, they had already figured out the general structure of Zhang clan science.
After entering through the gate, the first on the left is the residence of professors and lecturers, and the first on the right is the residence of students. Passing a gate to the north is Zhoujin Hall, with corridors at the front and back, an inkstone pond in the center, and willows planted all over the courtyard.
Behind the day sleeping hall is the shooting garden in the center, the kitchen in the northwest, and the school warehouse and library in the northeast.
Jianzhou Fu School and Pucheng County School both had special copying offices for the purpose of writing books. Jianzhou Fu School even adapted to local conditions and even printed books for profit and collected money to support students.
Today they entered through the small door in the northwest corner, which is where the cook comes in and out. When they passed the shooting garden, they saw many ethnic studies students already practicing shooting here.
Scholars in the Song Dynasty still had the ancient style of the Han and Tang Dynasties, with southerners practicing archery and northerners practicing horseback riding.
Then the two came to the door of the pavilion, and the minister in charge of the pavilion opened the door for them.
Inside the pavilion door is the school warehouse and library, which are usually managed by a minister.
This minister was an old man in his fifties, with a stern face and an air of not disturbing strangers.
"Are you here to copy books?"
"Yes." Guo Lin saluted respectfully.
"Here, this is the place. You are not allowed to go upstairs, and you are not allowed to drink water or light candles in the pavilion. You must inform me before leaving the pavilion, and then you are allowed to leave. Even when you go out, you must do the same..."
Guo Lin said: "Yes."
"Everything here is my decision. You can't object, otherwise you'll be kicked out!" the minister said harshly.
The library has two floors, and they copied manuscripts on the lower floor. The study room is very small, with only two low tables, reed mats and pen, ink, paper and inkstones. Copying here for a day will definitely be unbearable for my body.
The minister gave a few more instructions, went upstairs to get a book, locked the door and left.
Facing a desk full of pens, ink and papers, Zhang Yue now empathically understood why Ban Chao put out his pen and shouted out the phrase, "A real man An Neng Jiu Shi pen and inkstone".
Zhang Yue first studied ink and poured water in preparation. After a while, the minister came here and brought a stack of manuscripts for Guo Lin to copy, but Zhang Yue did not have a draft.
Zhang Yue was stunned for a while and said, "What is this?"
The commission letter is paid based on the number of pages per day. If you don't write a word, you will have no income.
"Senior brother, do you need help?" Zhang Yue asked Guo Lin, who was writing furiously after sitting silently for a while.
Guo Lin glanced at Zhang Yue and said, "No need."
Guo Lin's words were a little cold, and he seemed to be still angry from yesterday.
Zhang Yue couldn't stand the smell of dust in the house, so he walked outside to get some fresh air, and happened to see the minister sitting by the door of the pavilion, reading a book.
At such an old age, you are still so studious!
Zhang Yue finally understood why there have been so many outstanding librarians from ancient times to the present.
Zhang Yue walked back to the house again, and heard Guo Lin frowning and saying: "Junior brother, can you stop walking around like this..."
Guo Lin felt that his words were a bit harsh again, so he softened his tone and said: "I know... you shouldn't have been like this yesterday... you have no job right now, and you may have offended the chief. I will go with him later to make amends to him." ."
Zhang Yue said: "Senior brother, we don't need to apologize."
Guo Lindao: "If you don't want to apologize, I'll go and apologize. When you're new here, you have to endure everything."
Zhang Yue suddenly said: "Senior brother, I have gained some insights from reading Yi recently."
"What do you think?"
Zhang Yue said: "My experience is that 'the terrain is Kun, and a gentleman carries things with great virtue'. The Book of Changes uses the Qian hexagram to represent the sky, and the Kun hexagram to represent the earth. Between Qian and Kun, there is one yin and one yang. The relationship between them is For example, husband and wife, monarch and minister, host and guest, teacher and student, employer and employer...
"Therefore, heaven is moving vigorously, and a gentleman should constantly strive for self-improvement, that is, when the gentleman is in the host position, and you are the husband, monarch, and father, you should constantly strive for self-improvement and not count on others. The terrain is Kun, that is, when the gentleman is in the guest position, such as you are the wife or minister, As a son, you should be a moral person, be as tolerant as possible, and cooperate with the master."
In fact, Zhang Yue’s words come from the school motto of Wudaokou Vocational and Technical College, which is to strive for self-improvement and be virtuous.
Guo Lin stopped writing and said: "Do you want to use the Kun hexagram to describe your and my current situation?"
Zhang Yue smiled and said: "As expected of my senior brother, I understand it immediately. The Kun hexagram corresponds to the Qian hexagram, which can refer to the present day. We are new here, so we are guests."
"The hexagram Kun and Yuanheng are good hexagrams. The words in the hexagram say that a gentleman has a bright future. He must first lose his mind and then gain it. It is important for us to persevere."
Guo Lin nodded and said, "That makes sense. You can tell me more about it."
Zhang Yue said: "The change from the six Yao lines is the change of the Tao. On the sixth day of the lunar month, walking on frost, the hard ice arrives. Just like we first entered the guest seat, just like the senior brother said just now, we have just arrived. At this moment, it seems that our feet are stepping on There's frost on top, but there's solid ice below, and you and I are both uncomfortable."
"Sixty-two, the straight square is large, and there will be no disadvantage if you don't get used to it. Although you and I are new here, we have no conflict of interest with the chief, and it will not be disadvantageous to you, so you can rest assured."
"Sixty-three, you can be chaste, or you may work for the king, but there will be no success. As the saying goes, I am a guest and treat others with kindness. The most important thing is persistence. You can do whatever the master asks you to do without asking for merit. But hope for the end.”
Guo Lin clapped his legs and laughed and said: "Junior brother is right. How does it change below? How do you explain six-four, six-five, and upper six?"
Zhang Yue thought for a while and said: "The first three lines of the six lines are the guest hexagram, and the last three lines are the main hexagram. Sixty-four means that the guest is the master."
"On June 4th, there is no blame or honor. At this time, you and I have become guests, just like half hosts, but we must be more cautious and don't talk nonsense. It is best to have no merits and no faults.
"Sixty-five, Huang Shang, Yuan Ji. At this time, it is like the prime minister among the kings and ministers, the hostess who presides over the family on behalf of her husband, and the teacher's favorite disciple. This is the time when the host and the guest are most harmonious. The five lines are the hexagrams of merit."
"On the sixth day, the dragon is fighting in the wild, and its blood is dark and yellow. At this time, the host and guest change places, the minister comes to the king, and the hen is in the morning, and there must be a fight with the original master's family."
Guo Lin laughed and said, "Interesting, interesting."
Zhang Yue said: "Therefore, it is said that the Kun Dao is in harmony with the heavens and moves in time. A family that has accumulated good deeds will have residual blessings, and a family that has accumulated bad deeds will have residual disasters. A minister will kill his king, and a son will kill his father. It does not happen overnight. Therefore, the origin of it has gradually evolved, and it is not necessary to argue early because of the debate."
"This statement can be said to be the conclusion of Kun Gua."
Zhang Yue also didn't expect that he was just talking casually, but he had memorized a lot of hexagrams and articles in the I Ching, and he gradually became clear and clear, as if he were reading the text with his hands turned.
Zhang Yue remembered that these years seemed to flash by in his dream last night, and now...
The knowledge of the I Ching was neither profound nor mysterious, but it was so simple and clear.
While Zhang Yue was talking to Guo Lin, the minister outside the door stood outside and listened for a while, stroking his beard and smiling, showing that he had something interesting.
Zhang Yue and Guo Lin chatted for a while, and Guo Lin continued to be busy. He was also bored, so he immediately became addicted to sleep and fell asleep.
It didn't take long, but there was a bang!
Zhang Yue was woken up and when he opened his eyes, he saw Zhang Heng standing in front of him.
Zhang Heng said: "You actually sleep during the day? I really don't know how your husband teaches you on weekdays?"
Zhang Yue glanced at Guo Lin, but saw that his face was full of shame and he was very ashamed.
Zhang Yue said: "Zhai Zhan, I don't know the rule of Zhou Jin Hall not to sleep during the day. The Zhan Zhan doesn't arrange things, so I have to recuperate my energy."
You are not allowed to sleep during the day in Zhoujintang. Of course, this can be understood in reverse.
Zhang Yue is not a person who doesn't hold grudges. Zhang Heng said arrogant words to him twice and three times yesterday and today. He just let it go once. How can he bear it if he doesn't retaliate today?
Even if I don't have a temper, I still get angry when I get up.
Zhang Heng didn't expect Zhang Yue to dare to choke himself, and he couldn't help being shocked and angry.
At this time, the minister outside the door came in and said: "Chief, sir, it seems that I have something to ask you!"
Zhang Heng nodded, then threw a stack of papers on Zhang Yue's desk and said, "You have copied these. If you don't copy them well today, you won't need to use them tomorrow."
After saying this, Zhang Heng walked away.
Guo Lin on the side stepped forward to persuade Zhang Yue and said: "What did you say just now? When you walk on frost, the ice will come. It's your first time here. Let's take our time as guests and take our time. Why are you angry with him?"
"That's what senior brother said."
Zhang Yue then saluted the minister and said, "Thank you very much for saving me."
The minister stopped, turned around, and said without denying, "Young Master is a smart man, but I advise you to restrain your temper, otherwise you will be here soon."
"Thank you, husband, I will remember it."
