kingly way

Chapter 26 Chapter 026

Under the leadership of Lu Changshi, Ying Luo came to the academy...

"This is Mr. Mo's study, and the prince can enter it by himself."

After Lu Changshi finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation;
"My lord, Master Mo is waiting for you in the side room?"

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old bookboy pointed to Ying Luo's side room;

Ying Luo nodded and walked into the side room,

In the side room stood an old man about 50 years old. He was wearing a light gray gown, with long eyebrows and beard. He had a kind face and elegant demeanor, making him look like a knowledgeable person;
The old man was staring intently at a word "Germany" hanging on the wall;

"teacher."

Ying Luo walked into the side room and called out softly,
Hearing Ying Luo's voice, the old man turned around slowly;

"I heard that the son is not in good health, and the teacher is very anxious; now that the son is in good health, the teacher is finally relieved." Mo Fuzi said with a slight smile.

"Thank you, teacher, for your concern and love. The students are endlessly grateful. Is the teacher trying to comprehend the word 'virtue'?" Ying Luo hurriedly bowed.

"Well, the prince guessed right. Yesterday Dazhou senior official Xin Yu gave me two characters, one is 'de', and the other is 'ying'. This word 'ying' is the surname of the king. Every day, I burn incense and pray for the safety of the king and his family; I hang the word "virtue" in the side room, and stand here in my free time to learn how to be regarded as a person with "virtue." Mo Fuzi said;

"The teacher has a heart."

"My son, what is your opinion on the word 'de'?"

Mr. Mo wants to take this opportunity to test Ying Luo to see if he has improved recently.

"Then the student is making a fool of himself."

Master Mo nodded with a smile;

"The character 'De' is the 'right' straight' next to the two people on the left, which means straightness in walking and straightness in observing things. It is a person's inner feelings, beliefs, nature, and morality; , respect, humility, etc. "Virtue" requires people to be upright in their actions, eyes and heart, which is also an important character of being a person. This is a student's humble opinion, and I hope the teacher will point it out." Ying Luo said;
"Okay, my son has a thorough understanding of the word 'virtue', and it is really rare to be able to accurately express its connotation."

Master Mo couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding, and nodded in satisfaction;
"My lord, come with the teacher."

After Mo Fuzi finished speaking, he took Ying Luo to the inner hall, and saw a big "Win" character hanging on the inner hall wall. The "Win" character was written vigorously and vigorously. There was a table, and there was an incense burner on the table, and the incense smoke was still curling up. Mr. Mo walked up to the word "win" and bowed to the word "win";

"Good word."

Ying Luo couldn't help but blurted out a compliment, and Ying Luo couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude in his heart;

"What is your opinion on the word 'win'?"

Master Mo stroked his beard with his hand, smiled and nodded;

"That student is making a fool of himself again. The word 'win' is composed of five characters 'death, mouth, moon, bei, and fan'; these five characters represent the five abilities and consciousness that must be possessed to be a winner." Ying Luo looked at The word 'win' said;

"Well, Shizi is a good word, how do you understand these five words?" Master Mo asked with a smile and clapped his hands;

"Win above the word "death", which means that everyone must have a sense of crisis. Once a person loses the sense of crisis, he will lose the pressure of career and life, so he will be satisfied with the status quo, not enterprising, dare not develop and take risks, and eventually lead to failure Either rise in sorrow, or die in peace." Ying Luo said;
"Well, to be prepared for danger in times of peace, people must be good at facing the sense of crisis bravely in adversity, and be able to maintain a sense of urgency in good times, so that they can spur unremitting efforts."

Mo Fuzi looked at the word 'win' and nodded;

"In the middle of winning is a word that means that a person must have communication skills. A person's communication and coordination skills are very important. Through communication, one can give full play to one's own strengths and abilities, and absorb other people's suggestions, so that Improve yourself." Ying Luo said humbly;

"Well, tell others your thoughts and ideas, listen to other people's opinions, and improve yourself. If one person can do this, he is getting closer and closer to winning." Master Mo looked at Ying Luo and smiled slightly;

"Thank you for your advice, and the students continued to say the following three words, Yue Beifan."

Ying Luo bowed to Mr. Mo;

"My lord, please tell me." Master Mo nodded;

"The moon character means time. Success needs to be accumulated over time. You can't rush for success. If you want to win, you need time to accumulate, and you need to work hard at ordinary times."

"Well, doing things requires continuous and positive accumulation in order to accumulate advantages and success in a slow process." Master Mo nodded;

"The word Bei means that you must have material and financial resources to win; the word Fan means that you must have a normal and good attitude to win. Since you have put in effort, you want to win, but not all efforts will lead to victory. Treat success and failure with an open mind, sum up experience and lessons from failure, and definitely not become decadent in behavior, lethargic in spirit, and lose the chance of success because of failure. This is the student's view of "winning", please teach me." Ying Luo bowed to Mr. Mo;

"Okay, what you see is different from ordinary people, and you have your own thoughts and ideas when looking at problems. As long as you continue to work hard, you will definitely become a person who can accomplish something in the future." Master Mo stretched out his thumb and praised;

"The teacher has won the award, I still have a lot to learn from the teacher; what are we learning today?" Ying Luo asked;
"Today we will continue to study the "Complete Works of Classics and History". First, let me talk about your new experience in studying "Complete Works of Classics and History." Master Mo continued to ask tentatively.

"Know the history with a clear mirror, check the past to know the present; "The Complete Works of Classics and History" is a detailed record of the previous dynasties, including history, literature, philosophy, astronomy, medicine, ethnicity, etc. Through learning, you can know others and learn the principles of life. Improve yourself and serve as a reference." Ying Luo said.

"Very good. If the son inherits the title of vassal lord and becomes the lord of a vassal state, what do you think about governing a vassal state?" Master Mo asked.

"The kings of the vassal states need to be crowned by the king, how dare I make random comments?" Ying Luo said.

"Although princes are canonized by the king, they are almost hereditary; the inner hall is the same as in the past, there are only you and me, so there is no need to worry about it. What's more, we are talking about how to govern a princely country." Master Mo said.

"From the "Complete Works of Classics and History", we can know that the government has internal and external worries, internal worries about treacherous officials' rebellion, and external worries about people's rebellion in the world. Long-term peace and stability." Ying Luo said;
"My son has such insights at a young age, and he will become a great weapon in the future. The teacher is very pleased. The country is peaceful, but there are always lawbreakers who are different from everyone else. Among them are civilians, and there are many high-ranking officials. How can the world be long-lasting?" Mo Mo The master asked with a slight smile.

"Students are young, with little talent and learning, and they still rely on teachers to teach; if the country is to be stable, it must formulate and promulgate corresponding laws and regulations to restrict people's behavior, so as to ensure the safety of the people and maintain social order." Ying Luo said.

"Okay, the son's understanding of the "Complete Works of Classics and History" is beyond the teacher's imagination." Master Mo admired.

"Teacher, you have won the prize. This is all under your teaching."

"Is the law only used to restrain the people?" Master Mo suddenly asked.

"Returning to the teacher, the students feel that the law not only restricts farmers, but also restricts everyone. This reflects the fairness of the law. Everyone abides by the law, so that the officials and the people can feel at ease, and the world is peaceful." Ying Luo said.

"My son has finished reading the "Book of Virtue, Filial Piety and Virtue", and then he will become a great weapon in the future after he understands "Tao Lue Jian Jian." Master Mo praised sincerely.

""Tao Lue Jian Jian" is a military strategy, as long as there are generals who lead troops, they will be familiar with it, and they cannot be copied mechanically. Only by understanding its essence can they be used flexibly." Ying Luo said with a slight smile;

"Well, how does the prince want to use this art of war flexibly?"

Mr. Mo became interested.

"Strategy is just a reference, and it will change due to changes in time, place, and people. We are familiar with the art of war, and expand or even reverse it on the original basis; if there are too many people who defend, it will not be a good method." Ying Luo said with a smile.

"The battlefield is full of changes. You can't copy it mechanically, you can only use it flexibly. Well, the prince said it well." Master Mo said while looking at Ying Luo;

"The teacher taught it right."

"Haha...Okay, okay...My son has such a thoughtful cultivation, and I am also a kind of pride as a teacher. Don't be polite, my son. It is the teacher's duty to teach you well, and the teacher will definitely teach you everything."

Master Mo bowed back and nodded with an appreciative smile.
