"The rites of indecency!"
Fang Yun felt a mysterious power spread through his body. This power seemed to be the highest law in the world. Fang Yun could not help but bend down to pick up the brush and write on a blank piece of paper.
These four words were very simple, but Fang Yun found that there was an invisible force preventing him from writing these four words. It was as if if he finished writing these four words, he would be crushed to pieces by this force.
Fang Yun knew that this was the Confucian Classics examination. It was far more peculiar than the Holy Words and Poems.
Fang Yun took a deep breath. The source of this sentence appeared in his mind.
"Meng Zi Li Lou Zhang Ji," Meng Zi said, "The rites of indecency, the righteousness of injustice, Daren should not do."
Fang Yun slowly wrote the words "the rites of indecency" on the paper. When he finished writing the last word, it was as if he had pierced through a layer of window paper.
A thunderous voice exploded in Fang Yun's ears.
"What is rites?"
Fang Yun was stunned. He thought that rites was actually a general term. It could be the system of the entire society, or it could be the norms of one's moral behavior. It could also be the books of the "Book of Rites" or "Rites of Zhou". It could also be specific to marriage and funerals. If he wanted to directly answer what rites were, it might seem simple, but it was also a very difficult matter.
Even the world of wondrous books could not help him answer this question. At this time, Fang Yun could only answer based on what he had learned in the past few days.
"Rites are rules." Fang Yun calmly replied.
The invisible force suddenly disappeared. Fang Yun lowered his head to look. The words on the paper were still there. He let out a sigh of relief. This meant that he had passed the first test of the Confucian Classics examination. He could officially take the examination.
Fang Yun had just sat down when he heard a loud cry not far away. However, the cry suddenly disappeared, as if it was blocked by something.
"It seems that someone answered incorrectly. Or perhaps because they were too nervous for the first time, their mental state fluctuated too much, causing them to lose the qualifications to take the examination. The Confucian Classics examination is not the same as writing the Confucian Classics at home. " Fang Yun thought to himself. He put the paper with the words "the rites of indecency" on the top left. Then he took out a piece of white paper and put it in front of him.
The question was only four words, and the Confucian Classics were at most less than a thousand words. However, it took an entire day to take the examination. This was enough to show that the Classics were difficult to write.
Fang Yun thought to himself, "Molestation can be interpreted literally. It can simply be understood as not conforming to the norms of the rules. And this question. It's a very tricky question. "
"The original sentence is' The propriety of molestation, the righteousness of injustice, Your Excellency, do not do it. 'If I only explain' the propriety of molestation ', although I will not' commit a crime ', I will not' commit 'it. He would definitely fall behind, no matter how good his writing was. ...... and will not have good results.. If it involves' wrongdoing ', then … If it's written well, you'll naturally get a good grade. But if there's even the slightest problem, then it'll be considered a 'crime', and you'll be relegated to the lowest grade, D, and you'll fall behind. "
"Others are trying to avoid making mistakes. I can only write about propriety and not righteousness, but if I want to fight for that talent, I must focus on propriety and involve righteousness. Then.. . how should I solve the question to cleverly link the rites of indecency and indecency, and at the same time explain the rites of indecency? "
Fang Yun was stumped for a moment. It was not difficult to write the Confucian Classics, but to write it well was too difficult.
Moreover, the phrase "the rites of indecency... of indecency of indecency... Indecency of indecency.. Indecency of indecency..
Among them, the explanations of 'indecent propriety and unrighteousness' were more or less the same. It could be interpreted as' not conforming to the rules, not conforming to morality '. However, there were three different explanations for' adults'. The first was' adults don't do it ', the second was' people of virtue and prestige don't do it ', and the last was' people of high status don't do it '.
Fang Yun thought to himself, "The three types of people are different. Then the angles to explain the rites of indecency will be different. Later on, when the examples are used, the examples will be different. One wrong step will lead to many wrong steps. Even if all three explanations are correct, there must be a difference between them. "
When Fang Yun was reading Mencius and reading various annotations, he had considered that if he wanted to explain the word "Daren", he had to relate it to the previous text.
"This sentence is from the sixth stanza of 'Meng Zi Li Lou Zhang', and there is a fifth stanza before that says that a monarch should be benevolent and righteous. Then, the next stanza clearly doesn't mean that the monarch is an adult, nor does it mean that he's a person of virtue and prestige. It's obvious that he's talking about someone of high status."
"Most importantly, 'indecent conduct' is obviously aimed at the person who makes and executes the rules. If we simply interpret Lord as an adult, then the previous text can also be written as' act of indecent conduct 'and so on. Since Mencius said' indecent conduct ', it will certainly be different from' act of indecent conduct '."
Fang Yun thought about it and quickly determined that this sentence was Mencius' warning to those who made and carried out the rules not to exercise norms that did not conform to the rules and not to do righteous acts that were not in line with morality.
Thinking of this, Fang Yun suddenly clapped his hands and laughed.
"I understand!"
"What is' indecent conduct '? Since it's a rule, why is it not in line with the norms? Therefore, the key point of these four words is to first determine under what circumstances is' indecent conduct 'and under what circumstances is' indecent conduct '! "
Fang Yun felt as if he had been enlightened, and his eyes suddenly became clear.
Therefore, Fang Yun began to think hard.
Soon, Fang Yun was stumped again. Although it was easy to solve the problem, there was a difference in the level of the concept.
"Since I believe that the 'Lord' is a person of high status and is the one who makes and executes the rules, then 'act of indecent conduct' will rise to the level of the imperial court's way of governance or the policy of the Notre-Dame. After all, the Notre-Dame is managed by Half-saint. If I write about their 'act of indecent conduct', I might be shocked to death by their courage. Therefore, it's best to write about the imperial court's country. "
"It's good to have a direction. However, if I want to write an A-grade scripture and overwhelm others with an absolute advantage, I have to follow Yuanjun Feng's words and write some 'shocking' ideas or ideas. However, these ideas must be in line with the trend of the world and can actually exist in the future. Fortunately, this is not a problem for me. "
"Then, what should I choose to interpret 'act of indecent conduct'?"
Fang Yun thought until his head was in a mess. He could not make up his mind until lunchtime.
After lunch, Fang Yun thought until 1: 30 in the afternoon. Finally, he had an inspiration and kept writing on the blank page. In the end, there were a few words that appeared multiple times.
"Ancient and Modern", "Abdication", "Succession", "Hereditary", "Monarch", "Election" …
Fang Yun looked at these words and thought, "Other than time, what else can change the etiquette? For a country, what etiquette is more important than the political system? Then, I will write this scripture using the political system of the ancient and modern times! Abdication is an ancient etiquette, but for the modern times, it does not conform to the rules and is considered 'indecent conduct'. Hereditary conduct is the etiquette now, but in the future, it will also become 'indecent conduct'. "
"This is the trend of history, and even the saints cannot change it. Therefore, this idea is not only correct, but it will also be 'shocking' to the current Saint Origin World. However, I cannot write down the specific political system of the future. I only need to point out some characteristics of the political system of the future that are in line with the etiquette of the future! I cannot write too much, or else I will bring disaster upon myself. "
"At the same time, I also need to write down the meaning of injustice."
Fang Yun continued to write and draw on the paper. In the end, he decided to write this scripture using the political system of the ancient and modern times.
Fang Yun picked up the brush and chose a blank page to write on.
"The people of the ancient times regarded it as etiquette, and I must follow it in the present. This may not be in line with the etiquette of the ancient times. The people of the ancient times regarded it as righteousness, and I must follow it in the present. This may not be in line with the etiquette of the ancient times."
After Fang Yun wrote the last word 'also', the entire institute, including the Confucian Temple, suddenly trembled. Then, an undetectable and terrifying force silently descended on Fang Yun's examination room.
Fang Yun was originally overjoyed. After he picked up the brush, the talent aura on the page did not 'rise slowly' like normal poems. Instead, it was' rising ', as if the talent aura had a life of its own. At the same time, the page began to float.
"This is a phenomenon that only occurs when the 'Spreading the Word' is above the country!" Just as this thought appeared in Fang Yun's mind, the rising talent aura disappeared, and the page fell back to the table like a deflated balloon.
"This …" Fang Yun panicked. There were only two possibilities for this to happen. One was extremely good, and the other was extremely terrifying.
"What should I do?"
Fang Yun looked at the paper carefully. Then, he blew on it gently. The paper moved, but there was no anomaly.
The 'Spreading the World' poem weighed a hundred kilograms, but the 'Spreading the Word' poem weighed ten thousand kilograms. If it was not the original author, one would have to be at least a Grand Scholar to be able to pick it up. Only the 'Spreading the Word' poem that was placed in a box made of 'floating wooden clouds' could be read by others.
"That's strange! If it's not a 'Spreading the Word' poem, then it can't be a good thing. If it's a bad thing, I would already be dead. "
Fang Yun did not dare to pick up the brush. He racked his brains, but he still could not figure out the meaning. In the end, he realized that he did not have much time left.
"Forget it! What I'm writing is the experience of the human race from another world. Even if it conflicts with this world, it won't cause a catastrophe. If my poem really causes a catastrophe, the Half-saint will stop it. They won't let me continue writing. "
Fang Yun picked up the brush again and wrote the part about the 'Spreading the Word' after solving the question.
"The matters of the world …"
After writing the 'Spreading the Word' poem, Fang Yun began to use the political system as an example. This time, he was even more careful than before. He was afraid that he would write something too shocking and cause a catastrophe.
Fang Yun wrote slowly. When he finished writing the last word, nothing happened.
"Phew …"
Fang Yun let out a long breath. The pressure just now was too great. If he had written something that conflicted with this world's Divine Path, there might have been a divine punishment. That was too scary.
"Since this poem can be written smoothly, it means that there won't be any problems. I've seen an even longer history of the human race. I used their experience to write this. If my knowledge is not as good as Tong Li's, I might as well kill myself! "
Fang Yun carefully read the poem, word by word. He checked it five times before stopping.
"Dong dong dong …"
