rom the official family who came to visit relatives in the capital was reminded by the servant girl. I can't help but look at Chen Jingzong secretly by the small window behind."look at this style, it...through the two finger holes made by Chen Jingzong, Huayang looked into them with apprehension.
she saw her father-in-law sitting in front of the table, explaining to the children the "political article" of the Analects of Confucius.
the Master said, 'Tao is governed by politics, Qi is punished by punishment, and the people are exempted from shamelessness.' "
"do you remember that 'Tao' is for guidance and governance, 'government' is for government decree,'Qi'is for rectification, and 'punishment' is penalty"
"remember!"
"well, tell me, Da Lang, what does that mean"
Da Lang stood up. From Huayang's point of view, he could only see his side face, and his small face was very tight.
in the face of the book in his hand, Chen Tingjian may still be sorting out the wording, but during this period, Chen Tingjian has been looking at him, not angry.
finally, Dalang opened his mouth: "it means that if the people are guided by government decrees and punished by punishment, the people will not break the law and will not feel ashamed."
Chen Tingjian's face was expressionless. He turned his eyes and asked Jiro, "is your eldest brother right"
Jiro stood up, thought for a moment, and said, "everything in front is right. 'people are exempt but shameless." this sentence should mean that although people are afraid of punishment and dare not commit crimes, they have no sense of shame and do not know what propriety, righteousness and shame are. For example, if anyone violates the law, no one dares to kill innocent people indiscriminately. For a moment, abuse is not as good as punishment, but there is disagreement with etiquette. People with a sense of shame should also consciously observe etiquette. "
Huayang can't help nodding. Jiro speaks really well, and he will give examples to prove that it is clear and easy to understand.
she looked at Dalang worriedly again.
Da Lang's face flushed and his head went down.
Chen Tingjian snorted, looked at the eldest grandson and said, "fortunately, you are still an elder brother, but you are not as clear as your younger brother. First of all, the meaning of this sentence is not difficult at all, even if you are not sure of the meaning of the last sentence, you should know that these two sentences are contrastive, even if you are not sure of the meaning of the last sentence. In addition, the sage Confucius advocated the rule of virtue, which every gentleman would emphasize again and again before speaking the Analects of Confucius. How could a sage who preached propriety and benevolence think that it was enough to govern the people by the law alone If you are willing to use your head a little more, you will not make such a small mistake. "
now Da Lang's face is no longer red, but becomes pale and pale. Huayang suspects that if his father goes on, Da Lang will cry.
fortunately, father-in-law opened his mouth.
Da Lang sat down, and Wanyi, who was next to him, quietly shook his brother's hand.
after finishing this paragraph and explaining the meaning, Chen Tingjian asked the children to read it three times.
Huayang breathed a sigh of relief and left the two finger holes.
although Chen Jingzong didn't come over to have a look, he heard all the voices inside. Look at Huayang. He whispered, "what would you do if you were told like that when you were a child"
Huayang lips.
when she was seven years old, she was sure to cry when she was reprimanded so mercilessly in public by her father-in-law.
"doesn't the father know how to take care of the face of Da Lang" She asked in a low voice.
Chen Jingzong sneered: "how can he think about this he will only think that this is the consequence that Da Lang should bear after making a mistake. if he knows shame, he should not do it again."
Huayang was silent for a moment and sighed, "probably only a child as smart as Jiro will satisfy his father. As long as he doesn't make a mistake, he doesn't have to worry about being reprimanded by his father."
Huayang feels lucky again that in terms of intelligence, his younger brother does not lose Jiro.
Chen Jingzong just looked at her with the same look as "silly Fairy".
when the reading inside ends, the lecture begins again.
Huayang "bribed" Wanyi to achieve today's eavesdropping, so he wanted to observe for a while and continue to go to the finger hole to look inside.
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});
it's time for Chen Tingjian to talk about the next paragraph. Let Jiro read it first.
Jiro had a good performance just now. Knowing that his grandfather was very satisfied with himself, Jiro inevitably showed some complacency. He picked up his book and read it with cadence: "the Master said,'I am determined to learn at five out of ten, stand at thirty, stand at forty, know destiny at fifty, and be hard of hearing at sixty."
before Huayang realized that something was wrong, Chen Jingzong suddenly let out a smirk.
at the same time, there was a slap on the table inside, which scared her all over.
regardless of Chen Jingzong, Huayang hurriedly looked inside.
then she saw her father's fury, and his breath became heavier and heavier, and his beard fluttered slightly.
Chen Tingjian's anger went to Jiro: "say again, what is 60"
Erlang's face is also white, with a trace of confusion, he leaned close to the writing and nervously repeated: "Sixty and hard of hearing, no, it's good!"
Oh, no, he mispronounced a word!
and "hard of hearing" is not a good word. When he is playing in the garden, he often listens to some stewards scold the little servant girl and boy for being hard of hearing and can't hear the instructions clearly!
"clearly written in black and white, you can't do such a simple thing. How can you be expected to serve your country in the future"
"Don't be complacent when you think you're smart. Like Fang Zhongyong, you don't know how many mediocre people are when they grow up. If you don't rein in your arrogance, you'll be next in the future!"
Jiro blushed, but he was more cheerful than Da Lang, and he was not so thin-skinned. He was afraid of being afraid, but he was not scared to cry by his grandfather.
Huayang, who is outside the window, feels that he no longer needs to listen here.
she looked at Chen Jingzong and went down the steps silently.
before long, the couple returned to Siyi Hall.
Chen Jingzong went to the clean room and came out after washing his hands. He saw her leaning angrily against the couch in the second room, looking out of the window with her head tilted, wondering what she was thinking.
Chen Jingzong did not disturb her, but sat at this end of the couch, watching her silently.
Huayang is thinking about her younger brother.
my younger brother has both Jiro's intelligence and Da Lang's sensitivity, but his younger brother has sealed the crown prince early, but he is not as timid as Da Lang.
in other words, his younger brother is more like Chen Jingzong. He has the courage and courage to resist his father. It's just that Chen Jingzong rebelled against his father alone, and there is no one else to suppress him. Unlike his younger brother, he has his father and mother above him. In addition to the identity of the parents, the father and mother also shoulder the imperial power. How long the younger brother has been the crown prince, how long he has been bound by the imperial etiquette and law. If he openly defies the male father, the father, the mother and the heavy shackles of etiquette and law.
in his last life, Huayang always thought that his younger brother really respected his father.
Emperors enjoy privileges, such as grandfathers and fathers, who want to be partial to which subjects they want. Even if someone puts the offense of the subjects before them one by one, the grandfathers and fathers can find ways to muddle through and keep the people they want to protect.
therefore, even if the father really committed those crimes in the previous life, as long as the younger brother was partial to the father, as long as the younger brother was willing, the younger brother could let bygones be bygones.
my younger brother doesn't protect his father, either because he is jealous of evil and doesn't want to be an eccentric emperor, or he hates his father in his heart.
in the past, Huayang always felt that there was no need for his younger brother to hate his father. It was his father's reform that made the state treasury adequate for the people. Why should emperors hate such a good subject and loyal to the court.
but today, Huayang, who witnessed the severity of his father's teaching, suddenly realized that his younger brother had a reason to hate his father.he fourth elder brother, and I will give you gifts year after year."Chen Xiaozong: "that is, I will not argue with you. If you have the ability, you will also say so to your eldest brother."Chen Jingz...
