Chapter 870: Le Ge on the outline of the Analects

"Yes! I listen to Uncle Le! Zeng Shen agreed.

"Tell me about it? How did you first choreograph?" Lege asked.

"Me?"

Seeing that Zeng Shen was not speaking, Le Ge said: "I mean: your Analects should be written like this. It's like writing an article, there is a beginning and an end. Start with a start, and then take your time. Anyway, that's what it's all about, just to educate future generations. Isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"When you wrote the Analects, you were just nostalgic for the text and the commemorative text, didn't you?"

"Yes!"

"Actually! It's a sacrificial text! Isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"Later, I found out that it is not only a sacrificial text, a remembrance text, and a commemorative text, but also a gentleman's doctrine and thought, isn't it?"

"Yes!"

"Isn't that all there is to it?" Le Ge said: "Since it is an academic ideological essay and an article to educate future generations, isn't our purpose clear? Isn't it? We should arrange it as if it were a story! Isn't it? ”

"Hmmm! I listen to Uncle Le! "I have participated in the peace of the way.

"So! You just shuffle it all and rearrange it! Isn't it? You've messed up the order, haven't you? Seems like a mess, isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"Actually, it's not messed up, it's edited and organized! It is to illustrate one thing and one truth. Isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"In that case! Then completely shuffle the order! There is no time, no order of characters, but! Sort by reasoning and saying things. Or rather! In the order of storytelling, in the order of how to explain things clearly......"

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said: "That's how my first draft was written, but? Zigong they did not agree and did not pass. And also! There was too little content at the time to include other people's words. So! Zigong they disagreed. ”

"Zigong, what do they mean?"

"Isn't it? Zigong them? They said they were going to write everybody's words into it. Other words! You have to write all the main characters. Write the names of all the famous and famous students, and the names of the donors......"

"Do they want to use the Analects as a wall of virtue and a donation book?"

"This?" Zeng Shen said dejectedly: "Isn't this? At that time, everyone was guarding the tomb and filial piety for Mr. Isn't it? If you didn't include their names in the Analects, would they be upset? ”

"This?" Lege thinks about it: yes! Everyone kept filial piety together, guarded the tomb of Confucius, and donated money and efforts, why didn't they write their names when writing the Analects?

"Isn't it? We had been deliberating for a long time before we made a new decision: don't write names for people who aren't famous. There were more than 3,000 students in him, and the names of these people alone were enough to write a volume. I also have to write small characters, and I need two volumes to write large characters. Alas! ”

"Yes! You're too hard! It is necessary not only to write well about the doctrine and thoughts of the gentleman, but also to take into account the feelings of the seniors. I don't want to! ”

"Long live understanding! Thank you! Uncle Le! ”

"Therefore! You can't write the Analects well. ”

"Yes!" Zeng Shen had to nod in acknowledgement.

If it weren't for the influence of Zigong and others, according to his own ideas, it should have been written a long time ago.

But isn't? If you don't ask Zigong and the others, you won't be able to collect so much information, right? You don't have any content, huh?

But! If you collect information from them, you have to put their names in it. Otherwise! Some people are not satisfied, and even make a fuss! Isn't it?

"Actually! There's a good way to solve the problem of personal names! Lege came up with an idea.

"How to solve it? Uncle Le! Zeng Shen seemed to see a savior, looked at Le Ge and asked.

"You can write who asked at the time? Whoever was there at the time, like that! Doesn't that solve the problem of personal names? ”

"This?"

"Or! Write who who asks the same question. Isn't it? Let me be clear: who else asks this question and under what circumstances. Such! The time span was solved all at once, wasn't it? ”

"This?"

"For example! Isn't there a big age difference between you and Zilu? It's impossible to speak at the same time and place, ask questions, ask sir, isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"How can this problem be solved? That's it! You said you asked Mr. a certain question, and then Mr. answered? Isn't it? And Zilu back then also asked this question, maybe Mr. also answered like this, maybe not. Why? Because! Mr. looks at people, things, and external factors of the environment. Different decisions will be made for different people, different things, and different circumstances. But! The theme remains the same! It's not that there is no festival, but! The theme remains the same. Got it? ”

"This? Be! Zeng Shen thought about it and agreed.

"The same is true of the Analects you wrote, with the same theme! No matter what Confucius answered about the same thing, there was a reason, and the decision was made on a bottom line. That's the main idea! Base!

As Kong Lili said back then: Dad speaks according to his mood. If he's in a good mood, he'll say that, and if he's in a bad mood, he'll say something else. Isn't it! Not really! At that time, Kong Carp was young, so he understood it this way. When he grew up, Kong Carp understood his father's good intentions.

I'm going to make an analogy, using the case of the carp. In fact! How can the world not be a young hole carp? Where do they know what Confucius really meant? Isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"So! If you don't explain why Confucius said the same thing differently to different people in different situations, it is easy to misunderstand, misunderstand, and quote out of context to others! Do you understand what I mean? ”

"Understood! Uncle Le! ”

"Hmm!" Le Ge nodded in satisfaction.

Wei'er stood at the door of the kitchen, looking at Le Ge and Zeng Shen. Seeing that the two were too engaged in talking, they didn't bother. It's long past the time to eat, and all the students in the school have eaten. Fang Qin went back to be sad and was not at the scene. Xiao Yan may have thought about it, so she didn't come over to eat. Probably: back to Daddy. His father is the gentleman of the school, and the school is in charge of food.

"Did you say yes? Is it all said and done? When we're done, we'll start eating! Wei'er saw that the two of them seemed to have finished speaking, so she stepped forward to greet her.

Le Ge nodded at him and said, "That's it!" I don't make things clear, I don't want to stop! Alas! Zengzi! Let's get ready to eat! ”

"Thank you, Uncle Le! Thank you, aunt! Zeng Shen said politely.

"Thank me for what? Alas! If you don't care about me, I'm already satisfied! Lege sighed.

It's not that he has a bad temper, but! If you don't treat Zeng Shen like this, Zeng Shen is still unwilling to change? I don't accept your kindness yet.
