"You just talk, what are you shouting for? You scared me, you know!" An Yu slapped the table and glared at He Shiyuan.
Many students were not happy about his commotion: "Classmate He, what you are debating is about who is right and who can convince everyone, not who has a loud voice or who can scare people!"
"That's right! That's right! I'm still making him panic!"
Seeing that He Shiyuan and Fang Congyun were beginning to lose their momentum, Anyu shook his head proudly.
But thinking of Sheng Yuan, he looked at her in confusion: "Brother Sheng, don't you feel that Sister Yuan is not showing off her strength today? In the past, she was so excited and excited when she argued with others, but why is she so excited now?" Slowly?"
"...Maybe he's tired?" Lu Sheng also found that Sheng Yuan didn't have the same chattering energy as before. She looked like she had the pearls of wisdom in her hands, but in fact she was a little unmotivated.
"Either her opponent is too bad and she has no fighting spirit." The more An Yu talked, the more he thought his opinion was right.
"I don't know, let's take a look and talk about it!"
While Lu Sheng and Anyu were talking, Sheng Yuan laughed: "Classmate He, you are right and don't speak too loudly. No matter how loud you shout, I can't make it strong... Let me ask you, was it the Qin Dynasty that was closer to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, or the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? Is it close to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period now?"
Regarding Sheng Yuan's question, He Shiyuan and Fang Yiyun did not say anything. They knew the pattern of Sheng Yuan's words very well. Such a simple question that even a child could understand was clearly waiting for them to jump into the trap and let them punish themselves. Where is the mouth!
Don't be fooled! Be determined not to be fooled!
"The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period unified the Qin and Han Dynasties... Even an ignorant child may know that the Qin Dynasty was closer to the sages of Confucius and Mencius." They were not fooled, and Sheng Yuan was not in a hurry. Questioning and answering is also a pattern, which is called " As long as you have a thick skin, there will always be enough steps.”
“The farther apart the era is, the more people will apply the teachings of saints in a far-fetched way, which is not as sincere and simple as the people of the same era or the immediate past.”
He Shiyao and Fang Yiyun heard the words and looked at each other in unison.
"We can't let her say these irrelevant words anymore!" They saw this in each other's eyes.
"Classmate Sheng, you said these have nothing to do with the issues we discussed, right?"
Sheng Yuan looked at the two people who looked impatient, and then looked at the other students: "I am setting the stage! I want to tell you that in the era closest to the age where sages gathered, it is not a big deal to be divorced!
During the Qin Dynasty, Zhang, a wealthy man from Yangwu, divorced his granddaughter five times and married six times. Didn't the world at that time still tolerate her?
Cai Yan of the Eastern Han Dynasty first married Wei Zhongdao, but was later captured by the Xiongnu and became the wife of King Zuoxian. When she returned to the Han Dynasty, she married Dong Si.
Such examples abound, which shows that the direct descendants of sages and sages recognize this kind of behavior that is in line with human nature. "
"Wait a minute!" Fang Yiyun's eyes lit up, "Even the Cai Yan you mentioned didn't bring back the two sons of King Zuo Xian when she returned to the Han Dynasty!"
He Shiyao did not expect Fang Yiyun's temporary alliance to be so reliable, so he rushed to help.
"You are right." Sheng Yuan was not as nervous as they thought, but nodded in agreement, "Old times naturally have ancient restraints and backwardness. As descendants, we should inherit the advantages of the ancients and correct the mistakes of that time. It’s not enough! Isn’t this what the sages taught us to ‘choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones’?!”
Facing Sheng Yuan's kind eyes, He Shiyao and Fang Yiyun were so angry!
In this co-authored book, "Things Between Ancient and Modern Times", what she uses are the advantages of ancient times, and what she refutes is the shortcomings of that era? !
Inside and out, the truth is hers!
"You can't say that." Sheng Yuan regarded their words as compliments from their opponents, and waved her hands modestly, "When we see the good, we should think of them equally. Only by taking the good and discarding the bad can we continue to make progress. Let's all live together." Everything will be better, the mood will be happy and the atmosphere will be relaxed, and the children will be well-educated and good-natured. Over time, there will be fewer bad people, the people will be harmonious and the country will be stable, and it will be a good thing for the country and the king, which is what we scholars hope for."
He Shiyuan and Fang Yiyun took a deep breath and slowly adjusted their emotions.
Who can be as thick-skinned as the person in front of me!
Master Rong listened silently until he noticed that the two students were getting more and more angry and hurriedly said: "It's very good. Student Sheng Yuan has perfected the answer to the previous topic. Regardless of whether it is suitable to be adopted or not, it is a very good suggestion. .
Of course, classmates He Shiyao and Fang Yiyun are also very good. They dare to express their own opinions and question excellent answers, which is a very good performance.
Okay, it's time for school to end again. Everyone, remember to review well when you go back, so that everyone can get better results in the next ancient classics exam, successfully enter Shuntianfu School, become a junior student, and qualify for the provincial examination. "
…
After school, Master Rong called Sheng Yuan to him and said to her gently: "Classmate Sheng Yuan, you did a good job on the topic this time. If you get it in the college examination, do you want to copy it directly?"
When Sheng Yuan asked Master Rong to stay, she was still murmuring in her heart, wondering if she had expressed too many opinions and Master Rong wanted to teach her a lesson in private.
I didn’t expect Master Rong’s attitude to be so good.
Suddenly, Sheng Yuan was no longer nervous: "The examiners for the yearly examination are the gentlemen of the academy, and the examiners for the academy examination are the Grand Master and the Fu Yin. Our husband likes my answer, but the Grand Master and the Fu Yin may not; even this Grand Master will The Grand Master and the Governor like my answer, but the adults in the court may not."
Master Rong originally wanted to teach a few words, but he didn't expect that this little girl from the Sheng family was extraordinarily transparent and knew everything in her heart.
In this case, he really has nothing to teach.
"Since student Sheng Yuan knows it well, then review it carefully and strive to become a junior student."
…
"Sister Yuan! Sister Yuan! Master didn't talk about you, did he?!" Anyu and Lu Sheng were waiting for Sheng Yuan outside. When they saw her coming out, they rushed to greet her.
"Ahem!" Before Sheng Yuan could say anything, Master Rong opened the window and smiled at the three students not far away who he had watched grow up. "Don't worry, even if I scold you, I won't scold you." Student Shengyuan, after all, I still have to look at my grades."
After finishing speaking, he chuckled and closed the window, leaving Anyu and Lu Sheng standing there, one with his neck shrinking and the other sighing silently.
…
"Oh! What a coincidence! I have met the three of you again!" Prince Cheng rode his horse and stopped outside the gate of Jiujiang Academy. When he saw the three Sheng Yuan coming out side by side, he immediately waved to them.
"..." Sheng Yuan and the others looked at Prince Cheng with a bright smile on his face, and greeted him speechlessly but happily, "Your Majesty, are you going to meet us by chance?"
King Cheng jumped off his horse, smiled and waved his hands: "Don't worry about these problems, as long as you know that I am free recently!"
"Freedom?!" After the three Sheng Yuans heard this sentence, their first reaction was to look around.
Could Princess Cheng have... set a trap for Prince Cheng again? !
