Chapter 67 Worship
"What is he doing here?" Zhang Cheng asked.
"It seems to be a teacher." The servant accompanied him carefully and bowed and replied, with a strange look on his face, as if he wanted to smile but didn't dare to laugh: "He... brought some dry meat."
"Dried meat?" Zhang Cheng almost laughed out loud. Who else brought dried meat to worship his teacher these days? Zhang Zhao listened, but rarely smiled: "It's not easy for this child to know some ancient rites. Zhong Si, you greet him for me.
Zhang Cheng was very surprised. Except for Sun Quan and the guests who came to Zhang's family, Zhang Zhao has never welcomed them, and the public is no exception. Today, Sun Shao, a boy who did not perform the crown ceremony, came to worship his teacher. Why did he want him to welcome him? Besides, Sun Shao's situation is too special. The Zhang family is unlucky enough now. Can it be better to hook up with him again? He did not get up, but hesitated for a moment: "Father, Sun Shao has a special identity. It seems inappropriate to do so."
"What's wrong?" Zhang Zhao stared at him and lowered his face: "Let's not say that his father called me Zhong's father in those years. He said that he came to worship the teacher with ancient rites, and I should go to welcome him. There are not many people who know how to respect teachers these days.
Zhang Cheng can't laugh or cry. Zhang Zhao's words are obviously angry. Fortunately, at home, if it is heard by outsiders and spreads to Sun Quan's ears, it will make Sun Quan unhappy again. He didn't dare to persuade him again, for fear that Zhang Zhao would say something more unpleasant, so he quickly got up and went out of the door. As soon as he went out, he saw Sun Shao arching his hands and standing respectfully outside the door. The attendant behind him was carrying a bundle of dried meat in his hand.
"Sun Jun." Zhang Cheng stepped forward to salute: "My father is waiting for me. Please come with me."
"Are you Uncle Zhang?" Sun Shao smiled sincerely and also walked step by step. Zhang Cheng's eyebrows jumped and quickly refused, "Sun Jun, you are a public. I can't stand it when you call me that."
Sun Shao smiled as he walked and said, "In those years, my father called Zhang Gong Zhong's father and held the ceremony of his children. Naturally, he made friends with Zhang Junping. Although I was unhappy and did not accept the teachings of my father, I dare not forget this."
Zhang Zhao, who sat in the hall, heard Sun Shao's words clearly and was in a very comfortable mood. He said loudly, "It's filial piety to have not changed my father's way for three years."
Sun Shao hurried forward, put on his posture, opened his hands, and floated up the steps with his big sleeves. Then he took off his shoes and knelt down at the table. He saluted respectfully according to the ancient ceremony of Zhang Wen's teaching. Sun Shao, a student in Wu County, met Mr. Zhang and begged Mr. Zhang not to think of his poor qualifications. He was included in the door and had to listen to the teachings to study with morality.
Zhang Zhao looked at Sun Shao with a rigid look and couldn't help smiling with satisfaction: "Get up, get up, you child, where did you learn this Gu Lier? This pie is really a bit of a taste.
Sun Shao got up and bowed again: "I dare not hide it from Mr. Zhang. I just learned from Zhang Wen. If there is something wrong, please ask Mr. Zhang to correct it."
Zhang Zhao said "Oh". Zhang Wen's father, Zhang Yun, was a colleague with him in those years. He knew Zhang Wen and knew that he was a talent. Since he taught him, it made sense. He looked at Sun Shao and asked, "What books have you read?"
"I have read some Analects of Confucius and the Classic of Filial Piety."
"Since you have read the Analects of Confucius, can you explain one or two?" Zhang Zhao put away his smile, sat seriously, and prepared to ask Sun Shao. Sun Shao heard Zhang Wen say that before worshipping the teacher, the teacher will usually check your knowledge base. If the foundation is too poor, or think you are too stupid, you may not accept it. Seeing Zhang Zhao's posture, it is inevitable to be a little nervous. Fortunately, the foundation of his Analects is really good. Later, he asked Zhang Wen for advice, and he should be able to deal with it.
"Please ask Mr. Zhang to ask questions."
When Zhang Zhao saw that Sun Shao was confident, he was not polite and asked, "Zi said, my way is consistent. Why is this one?"
Sun Shao replied, "It's just loyalty and forgiveness."
Zhang Zhao asked, "What about the benevolent?"
"Loyal to the king's affairs, forgive people's sins, almost benevolence."
"Who is benevolent?"
"The benevolent love."
The two of them asked and answered, and in a moment, they refuted each other for several rounds with the content of the Analects. Sun Shao almost recited the Analects of Confucius. In addition, the bridge's careful guidance and Zhang Wen's instructions were also quite accomplished. Zhang Zhao's questions were almost open open. Later, Zhang Zhao deliberately asked a few difficult questions, and he just hesitated and answered them.
Zhang Zhao was very satisfied. Looking at him again, he looked at him with a little more appreciation. He stroked his thick beard and said, "Although you are a little late to learn, fortunately, you have a solid foundation. Although there are still some incompleties, it is also rare. You want to worship me as your teacher. What do you want to learn?
Sun Shao breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile, "Mr. Wen said that he is not only good at the Analects of Confucius, but also good at Zuo Chuan Chunqiu. His disciples are not talented and want to learn Zuo Chuanchun."
Zhang Zhao nodded, but said with some embarrassment, "Since you are dedicated to learning, I should have taught you all my money, but the military situation is urgent. The supreme will soon enter the military camp. I am a military division. I'm afraid that I can't teach you for a while."
Sun Shao bowed and said, "Sir, I have something to do. I should obey him, but the military camp is very important, and it is really not for idle people to enter. The disciple wants to ask the teacher to teach a chapter. The disciple will review by himself. When the teacher's business is done, he will come again.
Zhang Zhao blinked his eyes and shook his head again: "Self-study? Is it feasible?"
Sun Shao smiled and said, "To be honest, sir, I think that I should work hard for scholars first, first read the chapters and sentences, figure them out day and night, and then have some puzzles, and then ask for advice, so that we can really get the benefits. The so-called book is read a hundred times, and it is self-see. With the courage of the disciple, I would like to ask the gentleman to teach me a chapter. After the disciple is rude, I will trouble you to solve the confusion.
Zhang Zhao smiled. There are more people studying, but there are only a few people like Sun Shao who are willing to work hard. He was also a little curious. He wanted to see to what extent Sun Shao could read the chapters and sentences, and motioned Zhang Cheng to take a roll of bamboo slips and give them to Sun Shao: "This is the first volume of chapters. You can read them first. If there is anything unclear, you can ask Zhong Si."
Sun Shao was stunned for a moment and quickly bowed to take it.
Zhang Zhao paused and said, "Do you have words?"
Sun Shao shook his head and smiled shyly, "I haven't done the crown ceremony yet, and there are no words."
Zhang Zhao stroked his beard and thought for a while and said, "Since you have entered my door, I will give you a letter first, which is also a gift for you. As for the crown ceremony, when this battle is over, I will ask the supreme to salute you. When the country employs people, it's time for you to come out and do something.
Sun Shao was overjoyed and quickly bowed down: "Mr. Xie."
Zhang Zhao pulled a piece of bamboo slip, wrote two words on it, and then handed them to Sun Shao. Sun Shao took a look and saw the word "Fengxian" written on it. He felt a little familiar, but he didn't think much about it, so he thanked him. After a while, I thought about it. Shit, Feng Xian, isn't this Lv Bu's word? Why did Lao Zhang use it for me? Although Fengxian and Shao do correspond, Lv Fengxian's anti-bone boy died. Does Lao Zhang want me to rebel and kill Sun Quan?
Sun Shao muttered in his heart that Zhang Cheng also felt very inappropriate. After Sun Shao sent a gift to return, he asked impatiently, "Father, just give him a word. Why do you have to say such a word? I'm afraid the Supreme will have an idea when he hears it.
"What do you think?" Zhang Zhao's eyes stared and could not allow Zhang Cheng to refute. Then he said, "You don't know, Sun Shao has become an official."
"An official? How is it possible? Zhang Cheng blurted out. It's no secret that Sun Quan suppressed Sun Shao. Zhang Cheng knew it clearly. He really didn't know about Sun Shao's official yesterday. Now after listening to Zhang Zhao's words, he intuitively felt that Zhang Zhao was wrong.
"Just yesterday, the Supreme Awarded Sun Shaoguan, Captain." Zhang Zhaoruo looked at Zhang Cheng with deep meaning, and then said, "Zhang Wen has also become an official, Cheng."
"This..." Zhang Cheng was stunned. He looked at Zhang Zhao's serious face and suddenly felt a chill.
