The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism
Chapter 54 Confucius said to be a martyr, Mencius said to seek justice
The little fox sat on the desk and looked at the paper curiously. It was just a word. Why was Fang Yun so serious? Was he going to write a more powerful poem?
The little fox immediately widened his eyes and waited seriously.
Fang Yun's mind flashed with the famous "Song of Righteousness" by Wen Tianxiang, a famous politician, writer and poet in the Song Dynasty.
"The heaven and the earth have righteousness, which is mixed and flowing. Below are rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars..."
All the words and punctuation marks in "Song of Righteousness" total 360. Fang Yun's heart was agitated and he slowly put down his pen.
Heaven.
Fang Yun finished writing the last stroke of "Heaven". Nothing happened. He breathed a sigh of relief and continued to write "Earth".
At the moment when the word "Earth" was written, Fang Yun suddenly felt his Wen Palace shaking slightly, and the stars in the Wen Palace starry sky also shook.
Fang Yun frowned slightly and wrote the third word, "Yes".
Fang Yun's body shook, and he hurriedly used his left hand to hold the table. Suddenly, a lot of sweat broke out all over his body. His strength seemed to be drained away, and the talent in his writing palace quickly decreased like the fuse of a lit firecracker.
The pen did not stop, and the words "Heaven and Earth Have One" appeared on the paper. Before the fourth word was finished, these three and a half words suddenly changed color, like golden words cast in gold, emitting dazzling golden light.
The golden light illuminated the whole room.
Nunu opened her mouth in surprise. She felt a majestic aura coming from these words, which made her feel fear instinctively, but she felt that this power would not hurt herself.
Fang Yun continued to write. When he wrote the fifth stroke and was about to finish the word "正", a loud noise that could shake a person to death suddenly rang in his ears, like a landslide and a collision of stars. Fang Yun's eyes were full of stars, his body tilted, his hands loosened, and he could no longer hold the demon-sweeping pen.
With a snap, the demon-slaying pen fell on the table, and the three and a half golden characters suddenly ignited without fire, and the whole piece of paper burned up. Not only did it not burn the table and other things, it was even clean, leaving no ash.
Nunu didn't care about this strange phenomenon, but threw himself directly on Fang Yun's legs, raised his head and looked at Fang Yun, who was sweating and sallow, with concern. His eyes were wet and he almost cried.
"嘤嘤?" Nunu asked softly, with his two front paws on Fang Yun's abdomen.
Fang Yun sat on the chair weakly, reached out and touched Nunu's head, and said, "It's okay, I'll take a nap."
Fang Yun struggled to get on the bed, closed his eyes and went to sleep, but he was constantly thinking in his heart.
"It seems that "Song of Righteousness" is not an ordinary masterpiece. The kind of strong, powerful, and boundless righteousness contained in the text is in perfect harmony with this world. Once I finish writing it, my literary status will probably soar, but I don't have the corresponding strength, so it is impossible to write it now." "Mencius is the founder of the great righteousness. In "Mencius", Mencius once said "nourish my great righteousness". Gongsun Chou asked him what the great righteousness was, but he said "it is difficult to say", which is difficult to explain clearly. It can be seen that his great righteousness is not perfect. However, "Song of Righteousness" well explains the power of great righteousness." "Mencius's great righteousness is imperfect but he can be named the second sage. If it is perfect, how far will it be?" "Confucius said to become a martyr, Mencius said to take justice." "Confucius's "benevolence" is the highest avenue, and Mencius's 'righteousness' is probably the strongest power. Benevolence and righteousness are like, one is human wisdom, the other is human power. It's just that Confucius created benevolence to perfection, so he became a saint, while Mencius's 'righteousness' lacked the key link, so Mencius could only be a sub-sage. "
"Could it be that this "Song of Righteousness" is the key link of 'righteousness'?"
"Confucius cultivated the avenue but did not cultivate power to the extreme. If he also cultivated 'righteousness' to the extreme, would he step into a higher position of literature? In addition to 'benevolence' and 'righteousness', is there anything else that can be mentioned on the same level? "
Fang Yun was extremely excited. He didn't expect that he had a sudden idea to write three and a half words, and he actually touched the edge of the world's highest power. Although it was only the edge, it was enough to see a clear direction.
"Although I wrote poems and lyrics before, I was not steady after all. Now I know the direction and what I should cultivate, so I feel at ease. "
"Confucius said to become a benevolent, Mencius said to take righteousness, and I must have both!"
Fang Yun's mind entered the Wen Palace. The Wen Palace is three thousand feet long and wide, and is made of huge bluestones, rough and primitive. In the depths of the Wen Palace, there is a statue of Fang Yun, and in front of the statue is a person with Fang Yun's concentrated mind, who is exactly the same as Fang Yun in reality.
Fang Yun found that due to the vibration just now, a few boulders in the Wen Palace were slightly dislocated, but there were no cracks, and they could be restored by reading for a few days.
There was no change in talent.
Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, looked up casually, and was stunned.
The center of the Wen Palace starry sky was originally a star representing a famous article, but now they are all pushed away, and there is a vortex composed of countless glowing stardust in the center. The vortex slowly rotates counterclockwise, forming a great pressure.
"Isn't that a literary vortex? After becoming a scholar, you can form a literary vortex by worshipping in the holy temple, and then condense a literary courage. But why do I have a literary vortex now? Is it related to "The Song of Righteousness"? Or is it because I accidentally understood the secret of "benevolence" and "righteousness"? "
Fang Yun thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he had to give up.
"Let's take it one step at a time. It should be a good thing that a literary courage appears in advance."
Fang Yun thought to himself and fell asleep.
When "The Song of Righteousness" spontaneously burned, the saints of Shengyuan Continent, the three lands of the barbarians, the four seas of the dragon clan, and the five realms of the monster clan all looked up at the sky.
Shengyuan Continent.
"Is the slight change in Wenquxing's trajectory a coincidence or will there be a big change? Is it a disaster or a blessing?"
Monster clan.
"Perhaps this is a great opportunity for my demon race to enslave the human race!"
"I want to eat a half-saint!"
Barbarians.
"We, the barbarians, will surely take over the Central Plains!"
"In this world, the barbarians are supreme!"
Dragon clan.
"Just don't fall into the sea."
Fang Yun woke up after an hour's sleep and felt very comfortable. When he entered the Wen Palace, he saw that the Wen Palace was completely back to normal, except that the stars in the Wen Palace were slightly dimmed.
"Chen Sheng mentioned in his collected works that the Wen Gong stars have the effect of repairing and strengthening the Wen Gong, so the more famous articles there are, the stronger the Wen Gong will be."
Fang Yun opened his eyes and found the little fox sitting in front of him, staring at him with bright eyes, looking serious, like a puppy guarding its sick owner.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "Thank you Nunu, I'm completely fine now."
Nunu looked suspicious, leaned over and sniffed gently, then grinned, stretched out her pink tongue and gently licked Fang Yun's face.
Fang Yun was also very happy and stepped forward to kiss her forehead.
The little fox immediately blushed, barked shyly, and got into the bamboo basket with a swish. Her back was turned to Fang Yun, but her tail that kept wagging revealed her happy mood.
Near noon, Fang Yun was still practicing calligraphy, and Yang Yuhuan and Mrs. Jiang came back.
Yang Yuhuan gently pushed open Fang Yun's door and closed it gently.
Fang Yun put the book on the table, stood up and looked at Yang Yuhuan.
Yang Yuhuan's eyes were very complicated. They were moved, shy, worried, happy, and had a different kind of emotion that made Fang Yun feel itchy.
"Sister Yuhuan." Fang Yun said with a smile.
Yang Yuhuan stared into Fang Yun's eyes and asked, "You...why are you willing to transfer such a valuable house to me?"
"Then why are you willing to waste your life on me?" Fang Yun asked.
"I...I am your child bride." Yang Yuhuan's pretty face turned red, and a faint hint of charm flashed through her eyes.
"I am your future husband, so what does it matter if I give you something? This is what I should do."
"But...but I think you are too good to me." Yang Yuhuan looked at Fang Yun movedly.
Fang Yun took Yang Yuhuan's hand and said softly: "Even if I'm 10,000 times better, I can't be as good as you are to me. Now is just the beginning, I will be twice as good to you in the future."
"Yeah." Yang Yuhuan hurriedly took away his hand, embarrassed to let Fang Yun hold it.
Fang Yun reached out and touched the phoenix hairpin on Yang Yuhuan's head and asked, "Aunt Fang gave this to you? It's beautiful, but you are even more beautiful."
Yang Yuhuan blushed and said, "Well, Aunt Fang gave it to me."
"You are so beautiful. From now on, wear more jewelry and buy whatever you want. You don't need to tell me. You are half the owner of our Fang family. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Yang Yuhuan became more and more moved in her heart. She had always been afraid that Fang Yun would not pay attention to her after becoming famous, but in the end he treated her better than before and valued her more.
Fang Yun asked: "How about that house?"
Yang Yuhuan smiled shyly and said, "I don't quite understand, I just think it's so big. My aunt took the people to look inside and outside, and said yes, saying that only rich and distinguished families live in this kind of house. She also said that our family If you don’t have enough manpower, she will send some women or servants from Fang Mansion, otherwise such a big yard will be too deserted. She also said that Mrs. Jiang should go to Ji County’s hometown to find some people you know. You are more at ease with your own people than outsiders. "
Fang Yun nodded and said: "In the future, when there are more people and you don't need to do housework, you can visit your aunt's house more often and learn from her how to manage a large family."
"Yes. By the way, my aunt said that my uncle sent her a letter to Hongyan yesterday, asking her to select some reliable veterans of Tongsheng. Let them come to our house and let you choose a few to be your long-term followers."
Fang Yun said with a smile: "Uncle is so kind. In fact, it is enough to find ordinary veterans, but he also wants to find veterans who are children. I am just a child. My uncle is not that careful, it should be my aunt's idea. Then I will wait at home, when the time comes Pick two, there’s no need for more. When will that house be inhabitable?”
"I think I can move in today, but my aunt was more serious and said she would let people clean it up for three days."
"Then wait three days, I will just have to pretend to be sick for three days."
"Yeah. I'm going to cook." Yang Yuhuan turned and left.
Nunu quietly walked to Fang Yun's feet, grabbed Fang Yun's trouser leg and moved it.
Fang Yun lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Hey!" Nunu pointed to the bamboo basket where he lived, then made a hugging gesture with his two front legs, and spread them to both sides like human arms.
Fang Yun asked: "Do you want to live in a bigger place?"
"Hey!" Snu nodded excitedly, and his two claws were begging together, and the furry tail kept shaking.
"The house is very big. How about I give you a separate room?" Fang Yun asked.
Nunu was so moved that she jumped up and hugged Fang Yun's neck, and kissed him hard on the face.
