Chapter 1149 Humility


Chapter 1149 Modesty

The biggest contribution of Duan Yucai is the discovery that after classifying ancient characters according to their harmonic radicals, their rhymes are roughly the same, so he proposed that "those with the same harmonic sound must have the same part" In other words, this provides a way for all Chinese characters that are not found in the existing rhymes to be classified into various parts, and finally a large rhyme table containing all Chinese characters is produced.

This is an important progress in ancient phonetic research since the development of phonology in the Qing Dynasty.

That’s why Duan’s book was highly praised by people at the time. Qian Daxin said: “Duan Junfu, because of the theory of the Gu and Jiang families, proved its violation and compensated for its failure, and classified the ancient music into seventeen parts. If the network is in the outline, it is methodical, the source of the characters is clear, and the correct changes in the sounds are recognized, it is a tribute to the ancient scholars. "
< br>Duan's teacher, the famous rhyme expert Dai Zhen, also highly praised his theory. He said in a letter to him: "The great book can distinguish the five branches, six fats and sevens, just like the three incompatible rhymes of Qingzhen steamed. It has not been published by anyone who talks about rhyme since the Tang Dynasty. This spring, I will conduct some research on ancient rhyme and conclude that it will be a definite conclusion from now on."

However, Duan Yucai's book also made too many breakthroughs, causing the order of each rhyme section to completely deviate from the "Qie Yun" book, which was not rigorous. Fortunately, it received annotations and additions from later generations, and eventually developed into the Qianjia School. Then it developed into the Zhanghuang School.

So we must first understand these and make careful annotations, so that we can at least know what Master Zeng is referring to. Most of them can be easily understood. If you have doubts, you can summarize them into problems and discuss them with experts. Please ask for advice.

Yes, if ordinary people look at "The Rhymes of Mao's Poems", they are probably similar to the Book of Heaven. Not to mention asking questions or even arguing difficult questions, if you can understand all the words on it, you are considered to be very capable.

She Niu on the side was still very interested in Zhou Zhi. He secretly leaned over to see what Zhou Zhi was doing, and then found that the article was full of unfamiliar words. He couldn't help but secretly stick out his tongue again. Words don't bother him anymore.

Once he gets into the mood, Zhou Zhi often loses track of time. Three and a half hours is almost like the blink of an eye to him.

When the plane landed at Shudu Airport, Zhou Zhi was making notes on Gu Shaoxian's rhyme-specific writings on "Song of Shang·Yin Wu".

This poem is an ode to Yin Gaozong's great military exploits in the conquest of Jingchu. It also contains famous lines such as "No one dares not to come and enjoy, no one dares not to come to the king", and the last part is "Zhibijingshan , Songbo Maru "It is broken and moved, and the square is pious. The pines and rafters have balusters, and the traveling couplets are leisurely, and the sleeping areas are made of holes." It also provides information on the location of the materials used for the construction of the ancestral temple in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and the processing shape and other aspects. Important written records.

This carol also has its own characteristics in its rhyme. The whole poem is divided into six chapters. In the first chapter, every sentence is in rhyme. "Wu", "Chu", "Zhu", "Lv", "Suo" and "Xu" rhyme with Ye Yubu;

In Chapter 2, except for the sentence "Wei Nv Jing Chu", which does not use rhyme, the rest of the sentences use rhyme, "xiang" and "tang" , "Qiang", "Xiang", "Wang", and "Chang" all rhyme with Ye Yang;

Chapter 3 begins again with rhymes in sentences, "PI", "Ji", "PI" , "Shi (Tongren)" and "Jie (Tonglax)" are the rhymes of Xizhi;

In Chapter 4, the same sentences use rhyme, but there is another trick - changing the rhyme before and after. "Jian", "strict", "chaan", and "遁" are tangyang rhymes, while "国" and "福" Ye Zhibu rhyme;

Chapter 5 and Chapter 4 use the same rhyme technique, also changing rhymes before and after, but there is a small trick. Compared with Chapter 4, the "word feet" that change rhyme before and after "There is an exchange of quantities. "Yi" and "Ji" rhyme with Ye Zhongbu, while "Sheng", "Ling", "Ning" and "Sheng" rhyme with Ye Gengbu;

The last chapter has another Back to the technique of the first chapter, back to the method of rhyming every sentence and rhyming it to the end, "shan", "Wan", "Qian", "Qian", "梃", "Xian", "An", all It is the Yuanbu rhyme of Ye.

Using Yuan Yun and keeping the same rhyme to the end can quite exaggerate the festive atmosphere of the completion of the ancestral temple.

Judging from the rhymes and words used, we can see that the ancients had a profound understanding of the phonological aesthetics of poetry. When compiling carols and sacrificial songs, they already knew how to use strict and flexible rules. Creative guidance.

The poems written in this way are both solemn and majestic, with ups and downs. At the same time, they avoid boring sameness and are rich in variety. Finally, a aria with overlapping rhymes is used as the final chapter. The beginning and end echo not only the beginning but also the majestic atmosphere.

Even though the original music has been lost, a lot of knowledge can be gleaned from the lyrics alone.

"Little brother? Little brother!" The voice of She Niu beside him rang again: "We are here, the plane has landed." "Oh, thank you, brother." Only then did Zhou Zhi emerge from the ocean of knowledge. After coming back to his senses, he quickly added the final footnotes to the book in his hand, and then hurriedly packed up his things.

"Song of Shang·Yin Wu" is the last chapter of "The Book of Songs". After completing Master Zeng's annotation of this poetry collection, the work of correcting and annotating "Mao Poetry Rhymes" is considered to be Officially completed and ready for publication.

Of course, whether or not to publish it depends on the master's wishes. The Gu family has a traditional habit of "stirring up knowledge", which sometimes gives the school a headache.

However, Zhou Zhi felt that the proofreading and annotation of this book was completed, and at least he had a reason to explain to the elderly that he was flying around during the winter vacation.

"This is the catering on the plane. Seeing that you were so absorbed in studying, I didn't let the stewardess disturb you and packed it for you." She Niu said cheerfully: "You are really amazing too. You were stunned for three and a half hours. I haven't gone through any trouble, it's not like I spanked my little butt. It’s so sharp that I can’t sit still for a minute.”

Nowadays, when people go on business trips, the disposable soaps, shampoos, toothbrushes and combs in hotels are all novel and fun things, and they are often used together. Disposable slippers must be packed and taken away.

Flight food is even more rare. It’s okay not to eat it, but it’s not okay not to take the small plastic tableware with you.

Zhou Zhi really didn't care about this, but he also felt that Brother Sheniu's approach was quite heartwarming. He packed his schoolbag and took the plastic bag containing the airplane meal: "Thank you, brother, for causing you trouble."

"What trouble is this? I admire those of you who are good at reading. You also know why you can't go to school." I'm already in college." Brother Sheniu shook his head repeatedly: "Let's go, don't we go first class? We have to get off first, don't delay getting off the plane later."

This always sounds like a sense of superiority, but it is invisible. I'm sorry, it seems that this person doesn't often fly in first class. He is probably upgraded temporarily for unknown reasons just like me.

Because people who sit often will never find a sense of superiority in such trivial matters.

After getting off the plane, everyone went to drag their luggage first. Brother Sheniu was afraid that Zhou Zhi, a newbie, would not be able to find a place, so he took the initiative to ask Zhou Zhi to join him.

Zhou Zhi saw that he had a lot of luggage and he had one hand free, so he helped him carry a bag.

Zhou Zhi’s luggage includes a long plastic tube, which contains the "Ming Tuo Zhang Raptor Stele", Ji Xiaolan’s Duan Inkstone and the natural Gobi jade horse bought in northern Xinjiang, the Qilian Mountain-shaped colorful stone table screen, and The agate inkstone bed and the gifts I got in the Gongmei Hall of Beijiang Mall were all packed into the suitcase.

Then there was also a large cardboard box with zip ties. As soon as the box came out, Brother Sheniu smelled it: "Hey! It's really mutton!"

"There are also seasonings. "Zhou Zhi smiled very modestly.
