Several people were chatting, and at this time, the Son of Heaven had arrived. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Wang Jiaping, Chen Yuma, and others all restrained their smiles, restoring the appearance of 'true Confucianism' and 'Duanren', and they couldn't see at all that a few people had just said a yellow joke.

After the banquet officials, they entered the Wenhua Hall in left and right, Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei and other ministers were ranked together in His Royal Highness, and Lin Yanchao and other Hanlin officials were located at the head of the eastern class.

The officials in the palace have already placed the throne in the Wenhua Palace, and the case is on the case of the Son of Heaven, and the case is the history of the four books, and the lecture is the sermon presented by the official of the banquet.

After everything is ready, the officials of Honglu Temple salute, all the officials shout long live, and the Son of Heaven ascends to the throne.

After all the officials were in place, the official of Honglu Temple shouted a prayer feast to begin, and today's scripture banquet speaker Wang Jiaping walked to the front of the lecture, bowed to the Son of Heaven three times, and played after leveling: "Today's scripture feast, the main lecture Mencius leaves Lou." ”

After Wang Jiaping finished speaking, Lin Yanchao came out of the east class, walked to the imperial case and bowed to the Son of Heaven, and took out the book of Mencius on the imperial case. The book on the front of the emperor is also made in the shape of dozens of leaf sermons. Lin Yanchao skillfully turned to Mencius's Lilou, then took a golden ruler to press the book up and down, and then returned it to the bronze crane.

That's right, this is the work that Lin Yanchao does as a banquet official.

In this Wenhua Palace, the banquet officials have lecturers, exhibition officials, attendants, offerings, praises, cases, guards, and so on.

And Lin Yanchao is the secretary of the banquet. The so-called exhibition officer is to display the royal books and manuscripts during the feast. There are generally two bookkeepers for the banquet, not Hanlin, and Chunfang officials do not use. Although Lin Yanchao did not serve as a lecturer for the Son of Heaven, he was also regarded as the entry step of the Banquet Lecturer, first mixed up in front of the Son of Heaven, there is no saying, after standing here for a long time, the stage is yours.

To become a scripture and feast speaker, it takes chance. For Lin Yanchao now, he is first familiar with the system of scriptures and feasts, and then further seeks opportunities.

After the book exhibition, Lin Yanchao stepped aside, and then Wang Jiaping began to lecture in front of the Son of Heaven and the officials of the scriptures.

The scripture lecturer is different from the Japanese speaker, and the scripture speaker and the Son of Heaven lecture and lecture on the scriptures are in response to the lecture in front of the public, so the ritual of the lecture at the sutra banquet is more than the content.

However, the Japanese lecturer is different, the daily lecture is also called a small scripture feast, the number of participants is small, and it can really be called more content than form, in the view of Confucianism, only the Japanese lecturer can be really close to the Son of Heaven, and say a few words from the heart. In addition, the Japanese lecturer can occasionally serve as the speaker of the sutra feast, but the speaker of the sutra banquet cannot concurrently serve as the daily speaker.

Therefore, if you can become a Japanese speaker, you can truly be called the confidant of the Son of Heaven and the person around the emperor. At present, Lin Yanchao is thinking about how to become a Japanese lecturer, although the banquet lecturer is a Qinghua honorable person, but in comparison, he is still a Japanese lecturer, and he is the teacher of the Son of Heaven.

Becoming a teacher is the emperor's teacher, and the Ming Emperor especially respects the teacher, calling the Japanese lecturer a gentleman, not a name. As for the little emperor, he is also very respectful, Lin Yanchao heard in the Hanlin Courtyard that the next day he said that it was too hot, and a eunuch fanned the little emperor with a fan. But the little emperor was furious, and Mr. Zhu was beside him, and when he saw Er, he shook his fan, thinking that I had no family law, so he dragged the eunuch down and scolded him with a cane.

When Zhang Juzheng was the emperor's teacher and gave him a lecture on the day, the little emperor personally stood where Zhang Juzheng was standing and asked the eunuch to shake the fan to test whether Zhang Juzheng was standing comfortably.

Because of this, the competition for Japanese lecturers is also fierce. Now there are a total of six Japanese lecturers, such as Wang Jiaping, Chen Yuma, Zhu Geng, Huang Fengxiang and others, a radish and a pit, and they have to wait for them to retreat, I don't know when they will wait, not to mention that there are many people in the Hanlin Academy who are staring at the position of the Japanese lecturer.

Lin Yanchao thought in his heart, at this time, Wang Jiaping in the palace and the little emperor talked about Mencius's departure from Lou.

Wang Jiaping speaks wittily, and when you talk to him, you will feel that he talks skillfully and quickly, and there is a kind of charm that makes the four of them fall in love.

When talking about Mencius, Wang Jiaping also quoted the scriptures and expounded the meaning of the scriptures. Lin Yanchao compared him with other banquet speakers in the previous feasts, Wang Jiaping's level is obviously better, no wonder he can be appreciated and valued by the little emperor.

Wang Jiaping is talking about a chapter from Lou Li Boyi. Boyi opened up, lived on the coast of the North Sea, heard that the king of Wen was prosperous, and the sun returned! I heard that Xibo is a good pensioner. Taigong is located on the coast of the East China Sea; Hearing that King Wen is excited, he said that he is returning! I heard that Xibo is a good pensioner. The two old men, the great elders of the world, also returned.

Wang Jiaping explained: "Boyi, Confucius called the ancient sage, Mencius said, the holy pure also. As for the Taigong, Confucius praised and said, Xu You, the one who is good at himself; Taigong, who also benefits the world. Mencius called the prince of Boyi the second elder, and he was the eldest elder of the world. King Wen has no way, King Wen is benevolent, and Prince Boyi is the old man, so King Wen treats the old man well, abandons King Wen and returns to King Wen. ”

The little emperor listened: "Mr. Wang, what you said is very reasonable, but I remember that the Taigong assisted the Zhou to destroy the Shang and laid the Zhou room for 800 years. As for Boyi, King Wu will have 800 princes to cut down, and Boyi holds the horse of King Wu, knocks on the horse and says, 'Kill the king with a minister, can it be described as benevolent?' ’”

"This Boyi Taigong is all on the seashore and returns to King Wen, but King Wu is cutting down, Taigong is Zuozhi, and Boyi is admonishing from the horse, why is it different?"

Listening to the question of the Son of Heaven, he walked down from Shen Shi, and all the officials bowed down and said, "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”

After Lin Yanchao called Shengming, he thought that the little emperor asked this question well, didn't Mencius call Jiang Ziya and Boyi the second elder? These two are both Confucius and Confucian sages praised throughout the ages, but as sages, why should one want to cut down merchants and the other to stop them? Why is it different?

The Son of Heaven asked the speaker of the sutra feast, so His Royal Highness was appointed by the scholar of the Wenhua Hall as the official who wrote the sermon of the sutra feast, and began to record, and the Son of Heaven and the minister of the prelude to the prelude were copied on the record, which was the Hadith of the Son of Heaven.

Wang Jiaping listened to the little emperor and asked: "Your Majesty has seen thousands of miles, and he is really a holy monarch, as for the Taigong Zuozhi, Boyi deducted the advice, and the ministers thought that the Taigong was concerned about saving the people, and Boyi was the most important thing about the righteousness of the monarch and ministers." What the two elders seek is not selfish, but the great duke, saving the people is the public, and loyalty and filial piety are also public. ”

For example, Wang Jiaping and other banquet lecturers and Japanese lecturers, although they can be called emperors in private, but in front of the Son of Heaven, they dare not regard themselves as emperors, so they all call themselves ministers, Confucian ministers, and courtiers. Wang Jiaping replied very beautifully, although Taigong and Boyi behave differently, but the starting point is for the public, as long as it is for the public, they can be called sages.

Sure enough, the little emperor was very satisfied and said: "Mr. Wang, the real name is Confucian." ”

Wang Jiaping knelt down and thanked him immediately.

After Wang Jiaping finished talking about Mencius, Lin Yanchao stepped forward to show the book, and the little emperor was very interested at this time, and when he saw Lin Yanchao coming forward, he suddenly asked: "Lin Aiqing, what is the detailed explanation of Yu Zhen's question?" ”

Lin Yanchao was stunned when he heard this, it was not that he couldn't answer, but that the little emperor asked about the rules and regulations, he was a book official, not an official, how could the emperor ask himself? How do I answer this? (To be continued.) )
