This Wuyi Lane Chen Caozhi will definitely come, but Xie Daoyun didn't expect Chen Caozhi to come so soon, and he is here to participate in tonight's Pure Conversation Gathering.
Xie Daoyun's heart was beating wildly, and he thought, "Zizhong doesn't know that Xie Residence's Pure Conversation Gathering is designed for me to choose a son-in-law, right? Then what is he doing here? He wants to convince me with Dialectical Debate?"
Thinking of this, Xie Daoyun blushed hotly, but after all, she was not the kind of woman who was easily narcissistic. Then she thought that Chen Caozhi was most likely invited by Zhuge Zeng or Yuan Tong to help with the conversation. Thinking about it, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said to myself, "I Xie Daoyun don't want to marry, and it's useless for you Chen Caozhi to come. Zizhong, do you really think that your Mysterious Debate talk will be better than mine? Not necessarily."
The little maid who came to report saw Mrs. Daoyun's face turning red and white, and her expression was both happy and annoyed. She didn't dare to say anything, so she hurried to find Liuxu, who was Mrs. Daoyun's personal maid.
When Liu Xu arrived, Xie Daoyun was already ready, so they went to the main hall together via Listening to the Rain Long Corridor. Listening to the Rain Long Corridor is a zigzag The promenade connects several courtyards. The promenade is covered with bamboo sections. When it rains, the sound is clear. When it rains lightly, it is like dancing beads and jade, crisp and pleasant. When it rains heavily, it is like a waterfall in the mountains flying and noisy. The sound of rain is full of the ears, and there is a kind of tranquility in the hustle and bustle.
But tonight Xie Daoyun was not interested in walking on the corridor and listening to the rain. He walked in a hurry, holding a volume of "Collection of Treatises on Xuan at Mingsheng Lake" in his hand.
Xie Daoyun took his maid Liu Xu into the side room of the main hall through the back door. The curtain was low and separated from the main hall. Hearing Fourth Paternal Uncle Xie Wanshi chatted with people, Fourth Paternal Uncle was defeated and Shouchun was demoted to Commoner. Although he was recommended by Huan Wen last year, he was promoted to Regular Mounted Attendant, Regular Mounted Attendant was an advisor to the emperor, a noble official in the Qing Dynasty. However, Fourth Paternal Uncle had no psychology and basically withdrew from the center of power of the imperial court. The arrogant Fourth Paternal Uncle became depressed from then on and indulged in mysterious talks. She even wanted to convince Five-Stone Powder to relieve her worries, but she persuaded her to stop him--
Xie Daoyun listened for a while, but when he didn't hear Chen Caozhi's voice, he said softly, "Liu Xu, go and tell me Fourth Paternal Uncle that I'm here."
Liu Xu wiped the curtain and went out. At the moment when the curtain opened and fell, Xie Daoyun saw a figure with a lacquered crown and a geese shirt, sitting upright, with the smile on his lips as before--
As soon as Liu Xu went out, he came back quickly, his eyes were wide open, and he said to Xie Daoyun anxiously, "Madam, that Master Chen is here, that is Qiantang Chen Caozhi Master Chen."
Xie Daoyun said with a calm expression, "I understand, how unbecoming are you in such a panic? Go and report it Fourth Paternal Uncle."
Liu Xu glanced at Xie Daoyun in surprise, then went out again, came to Xie Wanshi and saluted. "Master Silang, Lady Daoyun is already here."
Xie Wan, who was wearing Crane Cloak and holding Iron Ruyi Scepter in his hand, looked at the curtain in the side room, then looked around at everyone in the hall, and said, "Then let's listen to the Dialectical Debate between nephew Zhuge and nephew Yuan first. Who are your two assistants?"
Yuan Tong said, "Regular Mounted Attendant Xie, this junior is inviting Master Zhi's disciple Zhi Fahan."
Zhuge Zeng said, "The junior invites Nanyang Fan Wuzi."
Zhi Fahan and Fan Ning had just greeted Xie Wan, and now they both bowed in greeting.
Xie Wan asked Gu Kaizhi: "Where is Mr. Gu family?"
Gu Kaizhi said hurriedly, "Junior and Chen Zizhong are here to listen to the noble talks, and are not participating Dialectical Debate."
When Xie Daoyun across the curtain heard these words, his heart felt slightly empty and he felt a touch of melancholy.
The screen in the main hall has been set up. Xie Shao, the son of Xie Wan, came in and said to Xie Daoyun, "Elder Sister Yuan, the screen has been set up. You can sit behind the screen and listen to them Dialectical Debate."
The name of Xie Daoyun is Tao Yuan, and the word is Daoyun, so Xie Shao is called "Elder Sister Yuan".
Xie Daoyun then left the side room. A six-fold folding screen separated the hall into an independent space. There was one flower and one case for Meditation Cushions. Xie Daoyun was sitting on his knees on Meditation Cushions, while a maid poured tea.
Chen Caozhi looked at the screen. The painting on the screen seemed to be painted by Xie Daoyun. There was Shan River. The painting style of Dai Andao is Painting of Kuaiji Dongshan. There is a light behind the screen. The slim figure reflected on the screen is probably Brother Yingtai. It can be vaguely distinguished that it is a woman with a hairpin in a bun, no longer wearing a blouse like Lun Scarf.
At this time, Yuan Tong and Zhi Fahan, and Zhuge Zeng and Fan Ning, started Dialectical Debate. Each side asked a question. Yuan Tong asked the question first, and the one that came out was "White Horse Is Not Horse Theory", which Zhi Fahan has studied deeply.
"White Horse Is Not Horse" is an interesting topic about Gongsun Long, Gongsun Long, Zhao State's retainer during the Warring States Period. Gongsun Long is The representative figure of School of Names, the so-called School of Names, is a debater who defends names and is good at language analysis, and is often a sophist. "White Horse Is Not Horse" is a famous sophistry logic--
At that time, there was a horse plague in Zhao State, and a large number of war horses died. In order to prevent this plague from being introduced into Qin State, Qin posted a notice on Hangu Pass: "Every Zhao State's horse cannot enter the customs." On this day, Gongsun Long rode Baima to Hangu Pass. The customs official said, "You can enter the customs, but the horse cannot. Enter the customs." Gongsun Long argued. "White Horse Is Not Horse, why can't you pass the customs?" The customs officer said, "Baima is a horse." Gongsun Long said "I, Gongsun Long, am a dragon?" The official was stunned for a moment, but still insisted. "No matter whether it is a Baima black horse, as long as it is a Zhao State horse, it cannot enter the customs."
Gongsun Long is a famous eloquent person. He naturally wanted to show his eloquence at this time and said, "'horse' refers to the name, and 'white' refers to the color. Name and color are not the same concept. For example, if you want a horse, you will be given a yellow horse or a black horse." Yes, but if you want Baima, you can't give it to the black horse or the yellow horse. This proves that 'Baima' and 'horse' are not the same thing, so we say White Horse Is Not Horse."
The more the officer listened, the more confused he became. He was so confused by Gongsun Long's eloquent talk that he felt like he was in a cloud. He didn't know how to respond. He had no choice but to let both Gongsun Long and Baima pass -
Zhi Fahan is good at arguing. He has read "Strategies of the Warring States" thoroughly and is familiar with Zhang Yi, Su Qin and. Gongsun Long and Hui Shi have studied hard. This time I came to Dialectical Debate with "White Horse Is Not Horse", which can be said to be well prepared, and last night at Yuan Residence had a long conversation with Yuan Tong, and Yuan Tong was well aware of the problems related to "White Horse Is Not Law Theory", so he talked about Come on, eloquent and eloquent. Looking back at Zhuge Zeng, there is no trace of Zhuge Liang's chicness in talking to other scholars. I am dumbfounded and just waiting for his help in the conversation. Fan Ning Fan Wuzi came to his rescue--
This Dialectical Debate is actually a Dialectical Debate between Zhi Fahan and Fan Wuzi. The two main debaters are puppets.
Fan Wuzi is twenty-four years old this year. He has a beard, is of medium height, and has an elegant appearance, but his expression is serious, and his brows are always slightly frowned. He listened to Yuan Tong talk for a long time, and his mouth was dry. He stopped to drink tea and asked, "Brother Zi Cai, do you have anything to say about 'White Horse Is Not Horse'?"
Yuan Tong glanced at Zhi Fahan and replied, "No for now, let's see how Brother Yongmin and Brother Wuzi retort."
Fan Wuzi asked again, "Does Senior Brother Fahan have anything to say about helping talk?"
Zhi Dharma said, "For now, let Fan Tan Yue comment on it, and the young monk will have his own words to respond."
Fan Wuzi sat upright and said, "White Horse Is Not Horse, it's a conspiracy theory, Baima is a kind of horse, but horses are not all Baima, Gongsun Long confuses the two names, abandoning the same and seeking differences. A wise man can see it at a glance. If you follow Gongsun Long's theory, then the Daoist is not a human."
Zhuge Zeng stared at Zhi Fahan's bald head, put his hands on his hands and laughed loudly, "Wonderful, White Horse Is Not Horse, a Daoist is not a human being, that is, he is not a human being. May I ask what he is?"
This Zhuge Zeng Dialectical Debate was tongue-tied at times, but now he was sharp-tongued when he was sarcastic.
Zhi Fahan was so embarrassed that he had no words to answer.
Chen Caozhi shook his head secretly, Zhi Fahan should not use this kind of sophistry as a topic. Sophistry like "White Horse Is Not Horse" is flawed in logic. Once caught, he did not fight back at all. The only option left is to admit defeat, and this Fan Wuzi has clear ideas, concise and concise words, no rhetoric, and typically uses his spear and attack shield to get straight to the point. He is indeed a very powerful Dialectical Debate master.
Zhi Fahan said helplessly, "The young monk lost this first game, please ask Zhuge Tanyue to give the question."
Zhuge Zeng has already prepared the topic, which is the topic in Three Commentaries on the Spring and Autumn Annals that Fan Wuzi is best at. Chen Caozhi was shocked when he heard this topic. It was "Is it easy to take risks" in "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals" that he and Kong Wang had debated the night before. What a coincidence!
It is a pity that Zhi Fahan did not have the opportunity to listen to Chen Caozhi and Kong Wang's wonderful discussion on "Easy can take risks", otherwise he would not have lost so completely. Moreover, when Fan Wuzi asked the question, his argument was "Easy can not take risks", then Zhi Fahan, as the other party, must insist on "Easy can take risks", but In ancient history books, there are few examples of "Yi can take advantage of danger" as a warning and punishment, so it is reasonable for Zhi Fahan to fail in this theory, although Zhi Fahan cited "Dao De Jing"'s "Treatise on the Worry-Free Way of Heaven" and "Heaven and Earth are unkind and treat everything like a stupid dog" to argue forcefully, but Fan Wuzi cited scriptures to outdo him, and finally lost in despair.
Yuan Tong and Zhi Fahan both lose, and cannot compete with Xie Daoyun Dialectical Debate was defeated by his love rival first. Yuan Tong was inevitably depressed. However, this was not the first time Yuan Tong lost. He lost in Xie Residence Having lost four or five times, Sheng Gu was happy to lose, driving away the frustration in his heart, and watched Dialectical Debate, Yuan Tong 0 with great interest as Fan Wuzi and Xie Daoyun naturally does not want Xie Daoyun to lose. If Xie Daoyun loses, then Zhuge Zeng can openly apologize to the Xie Clan proposed. Although Xie Daoyun may not necessarily marry this Zhuge Zeng, Xie Residence's Pure Conversation Gathering will be done with it from now on.
Yuan Tong thought, "Xie Daoyun will not be defeated. She has defeated so many good talkers in the past two years, but this Fan Wuzi is really powerful. Fan Wuzi hates Mysterious Debate's talkative talk, but Dialectical Debate is so sharp with her words. She and Xie Daoyun are evenly matched. It is not known who will win in the end between Dialectical Debate and Xie Daoyun."
The two games of Dialectical Debate just now made Xie Wan's eyebrows twitch. Iron Ruyi Scepter couldn't help but knock on the tiger's mouth, enjoying it very much. At this time, he said to the screen, "Daoyun, it's your turn to come up with the question."
Chen Caozhi is present, and Xie Daoyun is restless. She is a master of Dialectical Debate, so she naturally recognizes that Fan Wuzi is a strong opponent. Tonight, she is distracted and cannot concentrate on thinking. She is afraid that she is not Fan Wuzi's opponent when it comes to arguing--
Xie Daoyun White teeth bit the red lips and murmured, "Zizhong, you have hurt me!"
