031 Apprenticeship champion

"The ancients said that a word is worth a thousand gold, I like to know the Chen, today your answer to the eight characters is really every word of the word."

At this moment, Lin Zhen has no longer treated Chen Yichen as an ordinary junior student. This kind of knowledge and insight will surely become a great talent in the future.

"The top scholar is too praiseworthy, and it's just a lucky chance to have a late birth."

Chen Yichen was very modest. Some of them were polite, while others were really ashamed.

Because the answer to good laws and good governance is seriously not unique to Chen Yichen, but the experience obtained by the continuous development and progress of later society.

"Brother Dunsheng, since Yichen has completed the school entrance examination, you must fulfill your promise now."

"Otherwise, I will seize the beauty of others and accept Chen Yichen as a closed disciple."

Sun Tixue said this with a regretful tone. Compared to Lin Zhen, he had seen Chen Yichen's talent earlier.

However, the timing was inappropriate at the family dinner, and the two sides had no communication.

Now facing Chen Yichen's performance, he felt more and more appreciative. If Li Tingxiu and Lin Zhen had not been speaking first, Sun Ti Xuezhen would have planned to take away love and accept Chen Yichen's disciples for him.

"I feel sorry for the love of my fellow student, but I am too ashamed to be accused of it."

"There is nothing I dare not be accused of. The priest master wants to accept you as his disciple, and I will accept you even more."

Listening to Sun Ti learns this explicit words, Lin Zhen smiled and said, "Brother Yixuan, don't forget that you are a school official and rashly accept a school child as your disciple. Don't be afraid that the college entrance examination will be heard, and some people say you are favored?"

"The old supervisor has been in a long life, and he is sitting upright and not afraid of being gossiped about."

"The great master devotes his wholeheartedness and is a role model for us."

Li Tingxiu stood up and saluted. He was a teacher himself, so he respected and admired Sun Tixue, a person who devoted his life to the cause of education.

"But that's the case."

Lin Zhen nodded in agreement. Only by personally experiencing the supervisor can he understand the difficulties and admire Sun Ti's persistence for decades.

After saying that, Lin Zhen looked at Chen Yichen and said, "Yichen, do you have any preference for the meaning of the scriptures?"

Since you want to choose a sutra as your own, the premise is that you are interested in a sutra, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort when you study it.

"I don't have any special preference for the late-life student."

"How about the "Shangshu"?"

Hearing this sentence, Chen Yichen was overjoyed because it meant that Lin Zhen was going to accept himself as his child!

Because before Lin Zhen passed the imperial examination, he studied in Changtai County and his specialty was the "Shangshu".

After becoming the top scholar in high school, Lin Zhen's level of classical prose became a literary master, and he had a high status and authority in the field of "Shangshu" in the Ming Dynasty.

"Disciple is willing to govern the Book of Documents as its own scripture"

After understanding Lin Zhen’s meaning, Chen Yichen quickly beat the snake and rode it on, and directly changed his claim from late-success to disciple.

"Okay, then I will accept you as a disciple."

Lin Zhen was also very pleased and directly recognized Chen Yichen as his disciple.

Sun Tixue immediately congratulated: "Congratulations to Brother Dunsheng, I'm happy to win my beloved disciple."

"Yichen, remember to work hard in the future and not to lose the reputation of the top scholar."

Li Tingxiu instructed Chen Yichen to accept a student as his disciple with the top scholar. This is a great kindness.

In the future, Chen Yichen's words, deeds and knowledge not only represents himself, but also represents his master Lin Zhen. If he is not careful, he will bring shame to the top scholar.

"Students understand."

Chen Yichen bowed to his words and said that if he wanted to wear the crown, he would bear the weight. The disciples of the top scholar enjoyed the glory and also had high hopes.

After Li Tingxiu finished giving instructions, he got up and walked towards the carriage outside the yard, and took a bag from the carriage.

"Weichu, is this?"

Seeing Li Tingxiu suddenly walking in with a bag, Lin Zhen was a little confused.

"Since you have already become a teacher, how can you not perform the ceremony of apprenticeship? This is the six rituals. Yichen, you are ready to be a teacher and perform the ceremony."

When Lin Zhen heard that Li Tingxiu was ready for the Six Rites of Apprenticeship, he smiled hoarsely. His old friend, he really came with the confidence that he would succeed.

In fact, Lin Zhen was really wrong about this, otherwise Li Tingxiu would not have secretly prepared the Six Rites and Shu Xiu, but would have asked Chen Yichen to prepare in advance. In addition, it would not be placed in the carriage, and it would not be taken out until Lin Zhen agreed in person.

Although the two were old friends from the same hometown, Li Tingxiu failed the Jinshi exam, while Lin Zhen was the best in the world. There are still things like a gap in identity.

Using old feelings to "wrap" Lin Zhen to accept Chen Yichen as his disciple is something that Li Tingxiu would not and would not want to do. He wanted Chen Yichen to impress the other party with his talent.

Therefore, Li Tingxiu was not sure about accepting him as a disciple. If he succeeded, he would use the Six Rites to perform the ceremony of apprenticeship. If he failed, he would assume that these things had never been prepared, and he would not let Chen Yichen know about them.

All the things are ready, Chen Yichen first performs a baptism. Under the guidance of his husband, he put his hands in the basin and washes them once on the front and back, and then wipes them dry, which means purifying his hands and hearts and removing miscellaneous essences. He hopes that he can concentrate and focus on his future studies, which also shows his sincerity and respect for his apprenticeship.

After the baptism, the bowing ceremony was completed, but the first thing to worship was not the teacher, but the most sage to the sage and the teacher Confucius, and then to the teacher to show respect for the teacher and the teacher.

Next is to give you six rituals to practice. These six rituals are celery (meaning diligent and studious, and diligent), lotus seeds (the heart is bitter, meaning painstaking education), red beans (meaning the bright red fortune), red dates (meaning early high school), longan (meaning perfect merit), and lean meat strips (to express the disciple's wishes).

After all the forms, the final thing is to worship tea. When the teacher drinks this sip of tea, he will give a lecture to the students. The content is generally the rules and hopes for the students. It is not until this step is over that it is truly a ceremony to complete the apprenticeship.

"I remember that the poems and etiquette in the Five Classics are easy to favor benevolence, righteousness and morality, while the calligraphy is biased towards family, country and the world in the Spring and Autumn Period. As a descendant of the Duke of Chengguo, you hope that you should take the world as your responsibility and take the people as your foundation."

"Yes, my disciples follow the teachings of Mr.

"In addition, I am currently a lecturer at Zhaowen Academy. If you have the will, you can go to Zhaowen Academy to study. If you don't want to, and have any questions in the meaning of the scriptures, you can also come to this courtyard to find me at any time."

After all, Lin Zhen is not Chen Yichen's full-time tutor. He also serves as a professor in the academy and cannot teach every day like Li Tingxiu.

So there are two choices in front of Shen Yichen. One is to go to Zhaowen Academy to study, which is the best academy in Yingtian Prefecture. It has several famous scholars and scholars from all over the Southern Zhili flocked to it.

Second, if Chen Yichen is unwilling to change schools, he can only go to this yard to ask for advice and study, which is relatively troublesome.

"Sir, I'm still used to studying at a private school in the Gongfu."

Chen Yichen didn't want to go to Zhaowen Academy, because to be honest, the Four Books and Five Classics were purely a need for exam-oriented education for him, rather than really wanting to pursue academically.

As long as you can pass the imperial examination, it doesn’t matter where you study.

"It's great not to forget the kindness of my teacher!"

It is obvious that Lin Zhen misunderstood Chen Yichen and mistakenly refused to go to a better institution, thinking that he was reluctant to let Li Tingxiu go. Lin Zhen admired this kind of character of respecting teachers and respecting feelings.

Of course, Chen Yichen would not be so stupid as to expose this misunderstanding, so he could only laugh it off.

"By the way, there is another thing. A poetry meeting will be held on the banks of the Qinhuai River on the day of the Winter Solstice. At that time, many talented people in Southern Zhili will go to participate, and the teacher will be the chief judge of this poetry meeting."

"When I first heard about "Linjiangxian", I planned to invite the author to the meeting. Now you have saved the cumbersome invitations for my disciples. Then, I will participate directly."

Lin Zhen originally thought that Chen Yichen would go there happily, but he didn't expect that Chen Yichen would still look embarrassed after hearing this.
