Chapter 104: Talking About Thin Waist

"Girl, a little monk attacked Xu You before Wei Langjun!" A handsome and cute girl hurriedly ran in and shouted crisply at the person behind the curtain.

"Oh? What's the result?"

The sound behind the curtain tent was clear and indescribable charm, mixed with the soft Wu dialect, and a little orthodox of Jinling's elegant language, as if the fairy of Baoxiang was contaminated with the fireworks of the world, making people feel unattainable, but they tried their best to get close to each other.

"The result? Humph, the little monk has no ability. He was completely defeated in just two or three strokes. He was so embarrassed that he had no face to see someone and left in shame!"

"Can the little monk have a name?"

"I asked, it seems...it seems to be called Zhu Wuyin..."

"Huh?" The person behind the curtain seemed to have stopped for a moment, and finally felt a little curious in his indifferent tone, saying, "Is Master Wuyin not Xu You's opponent?"

"How can I talk about the opponent? The girl didn't look there. Zhu Wuyin was full of ugly things. He didn't even know whether the monk's robe was broken or not. He also claimed that he was worried and unintentional. He was so funny!"

After a while, he said, "You go and report to Gu Fujun, I would like to dance a dance alone for the winner between Xu You and Wei Wuji, to show my heart and to enjoy the grand event."

The girl was stunned and said, "Didn't the girl just promise Gu Fujun to sing a song?"

"Go, don't ask more about the others!"

The girl was confused and wondered: In the past, when the girls in Qingle Tower talked about Jiangdong talents, most of them admired Xu You's poems and even paid money to seek pleasure. Only their girls did not say anything about sex and never mentioned the You Ye Yiguang. Why did they take the initiative today?

Seeing that the girl had not left for a long time, the tent chuckled and said, "Do you think I danced for Xu You?"

The girl stuck out her tongue and said, "I don't dare!"

"Although Xu You is very talented and famous, his poetry and essays are unique in Jiangdong, but poetry and essays are not the classics. If we talk about Spring and Autumn, I once argued with Wei Langjun. His careful study of Spring and Autumn is far beyond that of the wise and the current people, and Xu You is afraid that he is not a match."

"Oh!" The girl suddenly realized and covered her mouth and smiled, "I'll just say it, it turns out that the girl was moved by Wei Langjun..."

When the girl walked away, the person behind the curtain sighed quietly, and a white wrist that was shaking frost and snow stretched out. The curtain was lifted up, revealing a beautiful and beautiful face.

She is Li Xianji, the first prostitute in Yangzhou!

"A woman like us will no longer be moved by anyone!" Li Xianji moved her lotus steps lightly and came to the window. Through the mountains of rockery, her beautiful eyes were clear and clear, and she stared at the noisy banquet not far away.

"Xu You, Xu You..."

She recited Xu You's name twice, and the rolling heat waves of summer reflected in her eyes, but somehow, a bit of biting coldness suddenly filled the room.

Looking at Zhu Wuyin's embarrassing back, Xu You was not very happy. He and the Heavenly Master had a great power, and the enemy was a friend. Ben Wuzong would naturally find a way to show his affection. Especially Zhu Fayan's six-character teacher was widely circulated, which would inevitably not arouse suspicion from the Lord. So, taking this opportunity to humiliate Zhu Wuyin, a little character who was ignorant of the world, had offended Ben Wuzong, but would not offend him too ruthlessly. Could it be that Zhu Wuyin allowed to provoke rashly and would not allow him to fight back?

Zhang Tong and others surrounded him and kept toasting and praise him. Xu You only had a drink with them on the grounds of poor alcohol tolerance and stopped drinking more. It was Gu Yun who spoke, and the excited people gradually dispersed. Seeing that there was a person standing out from the crowd behind the fence in the west, it was Wei Wuji.

And around him was Lu Xu, who had been around for a long time!

Due to well-known reasons, Lu Xu did not sit in the main seat of Gu Yun, but sat in the western position with a group of friends. Everything about today was planned and encouraged by him behind the scenes in order to defeat Xu You and avenge his previous shame.

As for whom he defeated Xu You, it doesn't matter. In fact, Lu Xu was unwilling to admit that deep down he was full of fear of Xu You. This fear was so strong that he could no longer bear the blow of failure, so he could only use others to vent his anger for himself.

Wei Wuji drank three cups of bragging wine in a row. With the praises of a group of gentry children, he suppressed his excitement and surging and walked slowly towards the high platform. Two cushions were arranged in the middle of the high platform, one east and one west, and sixteen steps away, which symbolizes more than 16,000 words in the Spring and Autumn Annals.

He lifted up his robe, knelt down, his body was as loose as he was. With his majestic appearance, Wei Wuji's first appearance won cheers.

Gu Yun poured two glasses of wine in person, looked at Xu You, and chuckled, "When you win, I will drink this glass of wine with you!"

Xu You got up, walked away a few steps, turned around and smiled, and said, "Let me kill Hua Xiong with warm wine!"

Entering the high platform and living in the east, Xu You folded his hands, leaned down and bowed, and said, "I am lucky to listen to the teachings of Wei Langjun today. You and I are really happy to come from your heart. We are just to investigate the mysterious meaning of the saint, not for the victory or defeat, but for the loss, I wonder if Wei Langjun agrees?"

Wei Wuji said: "That's the reason!"

What else can he say? Highly sound words always stand morality and reason, even if it is hypocritical and disgusting.

The two sat opposite each other for a few breaths, and Wei Wuji couldn't help it and said, "I dare to ask my husband, what is the Spring and Autumn Period?"

"The Spring and Autumn Period, the three kings are understood, and the human affairs are determined. Don't be suspicious. To understand right and wrong, hesitate, good and evil, virtuous and evil, virtuous and poor, survival and destruction, success and destruction, replenishment, and the great kingly way!" Xu You responded with Sima Qian's words, which seemed stable but not surprising, and said: "In short, the Spring and Autumn Period is a subtle meaning!"

Wei Wuji nodded. At least Xu You had already entered the door, not those who were seeking fame and were asking again: "There are three masters in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zuo Shi, Gongyang and Guliang, why do Xu Langjun think the best?"

This question is tricky. Since ancient times, the pros and cons of the Three Legends of the Spring and Autumn Period have been the focus of controversy. If the mother has the right and the mother has the right, how can we easily distinguish the good and the bad?

How could Xu You be led by him? He asked lightly: "What do you think Wei Langjun?"

"The three biography has their own strengths and weaknesses. If we have to compete with each other, we will naturally take "The Legend of Zuo" as the best!"

"I hope to hear it carefully!"

"The Zuo Shi is beautiful and rich, and its mistakes are witches; the Guliang is clear and gentle, and its mistakes are short; the Gongyang is debated and clarified, and its mistakes are vulgar. If all three are taken into consideration and abandon their shortcomings, the Zuo Zhuan records twenty-six years more than the Spring and Autumn Annals. It not only annotated the meaning of the Spring and Autumn Annals, but also supplemented the historical materials that have not been completed in the Spring and Autumn Annals, but also corrected some of the fallacies in the scriptures. Using this theory alone, it is far better than the Gonggu Second Genesis!"

This is not unfair, but this is the case with the debate. Right or wrong is not important. What is important is how to reliably rely on the advantage of words and knowledge to refute the other party’s remarks and make your own remarks firmly.

Xu You shook his head and said, "Your words are wrong! Although Zuo Zhuan is detailed in recording events, Gongyang and Guliang are detailed in the Gujing. The three focus is different. It is too much to tell the difference between you. Just like Yangzhou was a great master, relying on the good weather and good weather, is it a great contribution to the wind or the rain?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter. Wei Wuji dared not look down on Xu You anymore. He tapped his fingers to calm down his emotions, and returned Xu You's words as usual, saying, "I hope to hear it carefully!"

"The scriptures must be explained according to the scriptures, so Gongyang and Guliang have never mentioned it. If you remember things, it is not the case. There must be a beginning and an end. Therefore, Zuo listed facts before the scriptures to describe the beginning; put facts after the scriptures to end the meaning. Zuo Zhuan specifically recorded the events; or was the owner of the Spring and Autumn Period, but Zuo Zhuan did not record the events. Therefore, many doctors in the Western Han Dynasty said that Zuo did not pass on the Spring and Autumn Period, but Gongyang Guliang was the most sincere meaning of the Spring and Autumn Period, which is exactly the truth!"

Since materialist dialectics was extracted from logic, all debates can be found in the way to solve them. Whether it is a dichotomy of problems that are divided into two or a perspective of connection and development, as long as we master the core law of unity of opposition, whether it is the famous debate technique learned by Confucianism and Taoism from famous masters, or the Buddhist knowledge of the Ming Dynasty, it is not worth mentioning.

The fundamental reason for the huge gap between China and the West after thousands of years is the gap in logic. Xu You believes that the classics, history, and collections may not be better than those well-educated people, but he has two advantages that no one can match: First, knowledge is constantly developing, and the understanding and annotation of classics, history, and collections are constantly being improved and repaired. He has the knowledge points studied by countless masters in later generations. He can only pick the fallacies of the previous sages and wise men, and can completely shock disciples like Wei Wuji and others; Second, he happened to master the dialectics of materialism, and debate, and just open his mouth, he can say the black ones to white ones and the dead ones to live. Don’t underestimate this ability. The Taoist priests have hardly won many years of respect for the Taoist priests. Is it because the knowledge of Taoists is not as good as monks? Not! It’s just that monks have studied the knowledge of Mingxue, so they have never lost in the fight.

However, Taoist sect has a strength, they have never won a fight or lost a fight. Therefore, they gathered crowds to rebel in a disagreement, which directly or indirectly caused the tragedy of the Three Martial Arts and One Sect to destroy Buddhism.

Wei Wuji was silent. He keenly realized that what Xu You said was not completely correct, and there should be loopholes, but he just couldn't find a way to refute it. After nearly a stick of incense, the onlookers did not dare to show up. Although they were not on the court, they could also feel the tense atmosphere between the two sides. Some even felt that it was obviously two weak scholars who were fighting against each other, but they had the fierce murderous intent of conquering the battlefield, which was creepy.

"The Zuo Zhuan and the Spring and Autumn Annals, and the scriptures are just like the inside and outside of the clothes, and they are formed by stalemate. If there is a scripture but no scripture, the sage will not be able to understand its true meaning after ten years of thinking behind closed doors. The Confucians of the Western Han Dynasty respected Gonggu and looked down on Zuo, so they ended in the previous 210 years, and there was no comment on this in later generations!"

"Oh?" Xu You raised his sword eyebrows slightly, gently stroked his robe sleeves, and his grace and manner all led the people, saying, "Why don't you think the Spring and Autumn Period is a classic or a history? Zuo Zhuan is also an annotated version, or a historical book?"
