Chapter 75 Xun Family Villa
After passing Yangcheng and following Yingshui all the way to the southeast, it is Yangcui, the capital of Yingchuan County.
The closer Yang Cui, the more people became, the more people became. Especially the scholars wearing ebony and big sleeves, all of them rushed into the city. Fei Qian grabbed a question and found out that Xun Shuang was going to teach publicly in Xunjia Private House!
This is an open class from the Eastern Han Dynasty!
Fei Qian immediately became interested, so he accelerated his pace and rushed to Yangcui.
Xun Shuang was one of the great people of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Xun Shuang was born into the "Xun Family of Yingchuan" in the famous Eastern Han Dynasty, and Xun Shuang was also a direct descendant of Xunzi. According to calculations, he should be the descendant of Xunzi's twelfth generation.
Xun Shuang was studious since childhood, and he understood "Spring and Autumn Analects" and "The Analects of Confucius" at the age of twelve. This story surprised Fei Qian. Are ancient people smart or modern people smart? If it were later generations, he would definitely be a little kid at the age of 12.
It is said that Du Qiao, a famous Han official at that time, praised him and said, "You can be a teacher." This is a very high comment, which is equivalent to praising Xun Shuang's achievements in "Spring and Autumn" and "The Analects of Confucius" beyond ordinary people and can be a teacher to other people.
Later, Xun Shuang did not slacken in researching knowledge because of her fame, but read and pondered the scriptures more deeply. At that time, there was a saying that "The Eight Dragons of Xun's Family are unparalleled". Eight Dragons mean that the Xun family had eight brothers, including Xun Shuang, and Ci Ming was the name Xun Shuang.
Fei Qian maliciously thought, Eight Dragons, how awesome people dare to admit this title? Fortunately, it was the Han Dynasty. The Han emperor’s concept of dragons and phoenixes is not as perverted as later dynasties. Otherwise, the name of Eight Dragons would be the rhythm of rebellion as soon as the name of Eight Dragons came out...
Xun Shuang was a figure standing on the brink of Confucianism in the Han Dynasty. He proposed to be filial and perform a three-year ceremony, which means that the children of the deceased parents must be filial for three years. Then he proposed that men should be inferior to women. At that time, many criticism suggestions were put forward based on the government affairs at that time. However, Xun Shuang was smarter than Cai Yong. After Xun Shuang handed over the memorial, she left and left, abandoned her official position and lived in seclusion, while Cai Yong, who was not very alert, was sad...
During his seclusion, Xun Shuang did not forget to show her presence. The more she was hidden, the more famous she became. She also wrote many books during this time and was called "Super Religion".
Therefore, I heard that Xun Shuang was going to give an open class, and people from far and near came, and Yang Cui was extremely lively for a while.
Xun is a surname of Yingchuan. He is very calm about such a lively scene. There is a reception point far away from the Changting Pavilion outside the city. Scholars from all over the country can register first, and then according to the level of each family, the Xun family will make arrangements. Of course, if you think the Xun family’s arrangements are inappropriate, you can also go to the city to find a place to stay.
Fei Qian felt that he had nothing to gain, so he registered outside the city like many ordinary scholars.
After reporting the name of Fei Qian of the Heluo Fei family, the children of the Xun family registered and wrote some words on a wooden sign and handed them to Ke Fei Qian.
Fei Qian took it and saw that the wooden sign was square, with some ancient cloud patterns carved around the front of the sign. The middle is the character Xun in seal script, and the back is written with the words "Xun Family Bian Jian" above the wooden sign, and then the name and origin of Fei Qian are written at the bottom.
Fei Qian thought about it for a while, but he didn't expect that the ancients had already achieved this point at this time. Isn't this the same as the hotel door number in later generations?
I originally wanted to take Uncle Fu with me, but the children of the Xun family said that they could only stay alone, not maids and servants, etc., so I had to let Uncle Fu and Zhang Zhao go to find another place to stay on their own. Anyway, for such a grand event, people in and outside the city have some people who freed up their rooms at home to earn some extra money, so I don’t have to worry about Uncle Fu and the others having no place to live.
It just so happened that Zhang Zhao and the others were going to send a large bag of letters from home, so they separated for a while and made an appointment for the next meeting. Fei Qian left first, boarded the carriage specially picked up by the Xun family, and entered Yangcui City with other scholars.
The carriage picked up by the Xun family into the city, turned east, and stopped soon after.
When Fei dived out of the car, he saw that the first feeling was that the Xun family was really big.
The first thing that catches your eye is a three-bedroom, four-pillar, three-story archway, which is a archway with four pillars and three door holes. On the plaque in the middle, there are four big characters "Yingchuan Xun Family". The font is upright and grand. The archway is full of eaves and painted buildings, showing the extraordinary demeanor of the Xun family.
Under the archway, the Xun family was leading the reception. After checking Fei Qian's wooden sign, they led Fei Qian through the archway and walked towards the square.
The square was very large, and Fei Qian had a rough estimate. There were no less than a hundred people waiting, but they still seemed at ease and didn't feel that it was too crowded.
When the Xun family took Fei Qian to a square and stopped, Fei Qian found that there were two people in front of him, one was about the same age as him, and the other was a little older.
The Xun family bowed and said, "The three ranks of No. 27, Bing, are all here. Please wait for me to report to the manager, and someone else will take the three to your residence."
Fei Qian thought to himself, it turned out to be a three-person room, I wonder if these two other people have the habit of grinding teeth and farting and sleeping talk...
Fei Qian was the last one, so he bowed to the two people who were waiting before and said, "He Luo Fei Qian Fei Ziyuan, I have met two brothers."
The older ones obviously waited for a longer time and were a little impatient. They just gave a little greeting and said, "Runan Yingyu Yingzijin" and stopped talking.
Fei Qian thought about it and found out that he came from Runan. It was a long way from Runan to Yingchuan. Looking at the dusty look, he was probably tired enough.
Another younger scholar put a plant like grass on his sleeve and bowed his hands and said, "Changshe Zao Zhi Zaozi Jing, I have seen my brother."
Fei Qian looked at it and thought it was quite interesting. Why did this person play with a piece of grass? But everyone has their own hobbies, and it was the first time we met, so Fei Qian couldn't say anything, so he stood aside and waited.
After a while, a servant from the Xun family came. After asking Fei Qian and the other two, he took the three of them to the Xun family's villa.
The Xun Family Library is a place built by Xun's family to receive outsiders. It is divided into five levels, namely, A, B, C, D, Wu, and Fei Qian's characters C are of the intermediate grade.
The character A is used to receive people with a high reputation and a certain status. Most people don’t want to live there. For example, it is at the same level as Cai Yong, but other people like Cai Yong will not easily support them, so most of the time is empty; while the character B is a famous family or a social celebrity. For example, if Cao Cao and Yuan Shao come, they will definitely be assigned to the character B.
