Chapter II Teaching
Zang Hong is a famous scholar in the world. Sometimes the status of this scholar cannot be measured by his official position. This is also Chen Mo's experience during this period. For example, when passing through Xiapi, Xuzhou Governor Zhu Bing personally greeted him and even sent an army of two hundred people.
Escort Zang Hong to Langya.
Now Chen Mo also has some understanding of the officials and nobles of the Han Dynasty. In his opinion in the past, the county magistrate was already a powerful official, but above the county magistrate there were prefects of various counties. The governor did not have real power, but there were all officials in the prefectures and counties to supervise.
Moreover, there are officials at all levels in the prefecture. If we count them solely in terms of official titles, those in the prefecture, even if they are just officials, are qualified to give advice to the magistrates of various counties.
Of course, it depends on who you are. Due to the reason of buying an official position, most of the officials from all over the Han Dynasty are close confidants of the eunuchs. However, when these people come over, people like Zang Hong generally have an attitude of not provoking but not paying attention to me. You listen to me.
, No, I will just treat you as a fart. Even if those people have anger in their hearts, they would not dare to let it out casually.
Firstly, these people are needed to govern the place. Secondly, most of these people are famous people. If they are offended by trivial things, it is difficult for a foreign official to gain a foothold. Thirdly... famous people generally have a wide circle of friends, like Zang Hong, and Beihai Kong Rong.
If you have a good relationship with the famous people in Qingzhou, if you really offend him, the entire wealthy gentry family in Donglai will be able to trip you up. Therefore, although these bought governors have power in name, in fact, they do not have much real power.
When the Taiping Rebellion broke out, many officials fled without hesitation. Many scholars from various places had to bear some responsibility. After all, it would not be easy to coordinate and manage if they stayed. On the contrary, they might lose their lives. However, most of them were rushed.
The local gentry was also unprepared. Once the county magistrate left, they were unable to muster force. Many people were unlucky.
From this point of view, the Taiping Sect's previous overwhelming momentum seemed to have taken advantage of a loophole, but Chen Mo always felt that something was wrong. He couldn't tell what was wrong specifically.
Although the Taiping Sect is still raging now, judging from the situation in Xuzhou, it has obviously begun to stabilize, otherwise Zhu Bing would not have so many manpower to escort Zang Hong.
As for Chen Mo, because he was in a hurry, he would be called by the teacher to teach knowledge during the day, and then teach chess skills. In order to keep up with the teacher's pace, Chen Mo specially learned chess skills at the Dreamland Training Camp. Among his skills, he also learned one more
His chess skills have reached level nine.
In Chen Mo's understanding, this should be the highest, but the fact is that in the process of playing chess with the teacher, he was still killed and abandoned his armor, and unlike the previous ignorance, in order to learn chess skills, he went to the Dreamland Training Camp
After studying chess for nearly ten years, Chen Mo felt that he should have no less time to learn chess than his teacher, but he still couldn't compare, which made Chen Mo very frustrated.
"You kid, your chess skills have improved so quickly!" Compared with Chen Mo's disappointment, Zang Hong's mood can only be described as shock. A child who has just come into contact with chess actually let him, who has been immersed in chess for many years,
He had to face it. He almost lost several times. This made Zang Hong surprised and a little unbelievable. Is there really someone who knows this in this world?
"But it's still not as good as the teacher." Chen Mo shook his head with some disappointment.
Zang Hong: "..."
For no reason, he felt despised, but Zang Hong had to admit that in terms of chess skills alone, Chen Mo was not much different from himself. Looking at the lost disciple, Zang Hong adjusted his mentality and shook his head after thinking about it.
Said: "In terms of chess skills alone, Mo'er is no less than a teacher."
"Then why..." Chen Mo looked at the chessboard and was in a daze. If it was almost the same, why did he always feel that he was clearly arranged? He knew that he would lose this way, but he couldn't help but keep playing like this.
"The difference between you and my teacher is not here."
"Oh?" Chen Mo looked at Zang Hong in surprise.
"This game of chess is actually like a game between two armies. What is tested is not only the chess player's chess skills, but also the mentality, insights, and the layout of the entire chess game. Although you are talented and intelligent, you have limited experience after all. As a teacher, you can do it with just a little temptation.
To bring you into the game." Zang Hong looked at Chen Mo and said with a smile.
Having such a talented disciple is both a blessing and a misfortune for the teacher.
"Why did the teacher say it was like marching in formation?" Chen Mo asked puzzled.
"Everything in this world leads to the same destination through different paths. This chess game also pays attention to the art of war." Zang Hong said with a smile.
"The Art of War?" Chen Mo looked at the teacher in astonishment, why was there no teaching in this dream training camp?
"Actually, it's not just about the art of war. The culture of the Han Dynasty has been gradually integrated since the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States Period, and the Qin Dynasty. As you learn more in the future, you will find that although the various schools of knowledge are contradictory, tracing back to their roots, they always have the same
There are similarities, or in other words, so far, whether it is Confucianism, Legalism, or even the Mohism that has disappeared, you cannot find any theory that can encompass all the principles of the world. What do our scholars want to do? Have you ever thought about it?
Passed?" Zang Hong looked at his disciple with a smile, as his disciple could always bring surprises to him.
"Inherit the learning of the sages and pass it on. In addition, reading and doing things can also make people understand things." Chen Mo thought carefully and expressed his knowledge. This is his current knowledge of knowledge. Of course, there are
Some people didn’t mention that reading is also related to career.
"That's one of them." Zang Hong breathed a sigh of relief for no reason. If his disciple knew everything, he wouldn't know what he should teach him.
Chen Mo quickly sat upright and looked at his teacher with bright eyes.
"Every theory has its merits. If you can create a theory and pass it down to this day, it must have its own merits. Of course, our generation of scholars must inherit the knowledge of our ancestors, but what is more important is to eliminate the waste and retain the essence.
To constantly correct these errors in knowledge, we need to know that the sages are also human beings, and they will always make mistakes. I just don’t know why, but now, many people regard the words of the sages as the most truth. Even if they know they are wrong, they are unwilling to correct them. In fact,
Extremely pedantic!" Zang Hong said with a sigh at the end. He was not a radical person at first. When he entered Luoyang as a young boy, he also went there with a desire to learn. However, although Luoyang is full of great scholars, but
There is a trend of blind obedience. What the sages said is right and what the great Confucians said is right. Although he has gained fame, Zang Hong always feels out of place in the atmosphere of Luoyang.
"It's better to have no books than to believe in all the books?" Chen Mo's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Zang Hongdao.
"That's right." Zang Hong nodded. This was also the reason why he was unwilling to send Chen Mo directly to Luoyang to be a boy. If such a piece of rough jade enters Luoyang, it might become pedantic like those people. He laughed immediately.
Dao said: "As for this chess skill, your chess skill is already extremely high. If you want to improve it further, you don't need to study any more. Open your mind, learn more about other theories, and move around more. You have experienced a lot and seen a lot. Today's doubts,
You will understand without anyone having to explain it.”
"Thank you for your guidance, teacher." Chen Mo thanked him.
"It's getting late, go back to your car and rest." Zang Hong waved his hand.
"Disciple, please leave." Chen Mo bowed and said goodbye.
"One more thing..." Zang Hong hesitated and called Chen Mo.
"Teacher, please give me your instructions."
"Juan'er will be by your side from now on to take care of trivial matters for you, but you are getting older now, so you should not rush into certain things, lest you delay your studies."
"What's the matter?" Chen Mo asked confused.
"This... thing between men and women." Zang Hong was a little embarrassed. This gentle country can destroy people's will. In addition, Chen Mo is young. If he doesn't lead him to it, if he gets a taste of it in the future, Zang Hong is not willing to fall into it.
have witnessed.???
Chen Mo looked at Zang Hong in confusion, so...what is going on?
"Go ahead, go ahead." Zang Hong didn't know how to explain it for a while, so he waved his hand helplessly: "Anyway, go to bed early at night and don't do anything else."
