I am ashamed to say that I am poor. I doubt that I am seeking help from others." Mechanics, trapped in ten years of life, began to be promoted in the countryside. In the 54th year of the reign of Emperor Qianlong, there were two Jinshi in the first class, who were granted editing. Big examination, promotion and reading. In a few days, he moved to sacrifice wine. Sixty years ago, he disobeyed the order and gave orders.

Life of the characters

Early lonely, poor family, hard mechanics, high interest, simple, no matter the voice of the end of the Na, people mostly to circuitous strange eyes. Ren Dachun, who is the chief speaker of Huaishang, sighs at the sight of Huaishang, hoping to become a scholar. In Qianlong's reign, he was awarded the title of editor. At the beginning of Jiaqing period, he was promoted to minister and moved to sacrifice wine. Those who are in power do not attach themselves to others, and they are restrained in many ways, resulting in many setbacks in public welfare. Tired official left all censor, on the study master, Minister of rites. Daoguang Guiwei, Linyong Licheng, Zhaojia Prince Taibao. In Yiyou, he was awarded the associate bachelor degree. He died next year and presented it to the crown prince and the grand master. As an example, he was given a funeral. His posthumous title was Wen Duan. The public can see everything in the book, especially in the Sutra. The thirteen classics can be recited in secret. In the Han and Song Dynasties, it was not partial to the left and the right, but a compromise. Other aspects of public sentiment and politics, as well as the counting skills of local names and objects, are all studied. At that time, Ruan Wenda was famous for his erudition and tried to persuade him to write books. He replied: "the ancient Confucianists all talked about the mysteries of the six classics before me. How dare they say that again! Therefore, it should be attributed to reading. " For more than 30 years since the establishment of the dynasty, the style of writing has been lively, and the style of writing has been refined. In addition, he was willing to accept and sympathize with the cold. He was also like Ruan Gong.

Jiaqing first year, straight to the study. I will be promoted to a Bachelor of Arts in a big examination. When the mother is worried about her return, she will take care of her husband and make up for the former official. In the seventh year, he was in charge of Anhui academic administration. At the end of his term, he returned to be in charge of Jiangxi's academic administration. Lei Qian served as a bachelor, a minister of Taipusi, and a cabinet bachelor. Tingzhen's learning had its roots. At the beginning, it was a sacrificial ceremony. It regarded itself as a teacher. It was selected as a record of Junke scholars. In order to learn about politics, the five principles are to train scholars: to distinguish between painting and painting, to carry out the foundation, to be dedicated, to judge the false and to be independent. Talking with scholars is as earnest as a father and brother is to his children. The purpose of this paper is to use the rhetoric of Yi to describe the compilation of Licheng. The scholar's style changed. Wanzai shanty people were naturalized, the old school places were decided later, and the dispute was settled after a long time. In the 16th year, he was the Minister of rites. He went to the study to serve Xuanzong school. In 18 years, he took Zhejiang provincial examination, studied abroad and returned to Beijing. In the 22nd year, he was the head of the Imperial Academy, promoted to the imperial censor of zuodou, and became the master of the study. Twenty three years later, he moved to the Ministry of rites. In the 24th year, Renzong lived a long life in his 60th birthday. During the celebration period, he met empress Xiaoci Gao on her death day. The Minister of the Ministry did not help him. In the story, he asked her to dress up, sat down suddenly, and handed down to his servant. Over the years, he was re granted the Minister of rites.

In the second year of Daoguang's reign, he took the exam and taught the scholars. He drove to visit the mausoleum and ordered him to stay in Beijing. In the third year, Xuanzong shidiewen temple was completed. Fortunately, he opened Yonghe temple. He said: "Wang Tingzhen, the Minister of rites, went to the library to talk with me all the time. He was not in the right way. He helped me understand the classics and righteousness, distinguish between evil and right, and benefited a lot. After I was in charge, I was given the responsibility of serving as a minister. I devoted myself to my duty. I have both the way of teaching and the way of minister. Today, I am in Linyong. I cherish the old school and add the crown prince and Taibao. In the original Zibao, yuan wailang was used as a supplement to show his respect for Confucianism and Taoism. " In the fourth year, Renzong recorded the actual situation, gave Zibao run principal, sun Chengyou and others. When the high weir of Nanhe river burst, it blocked the transportation, and the Imperial Palace grew up in Huaihe and Yanghe. It ordered Wen Fu, the minister, to go to the exploration, impeached Zhang Wenhao, the governor of Nanhe River, and sun Yuting, the governor of Nanhe river. Dredging and dredging matters shall be handled by the river supervisor. Five years later, he returned to Beijing and co sponsored his bachelor degree. In the seventh year, he died and mourned for the earthquake. He was given a compassionate gift by youzhao, a gift to the prince and his master, a sacrifice to Xianliang temple, a memorial to Mingda's elder brother, and a thousand liang of silver to govern the funeral. He was named Wenduan. Jiangsu Province, please worship Xiangxian, special edict to allow it.

The style of Tingzhen was severe, and there was no one attached to it. When you go in and out of the inner court, you can see it with awe. He said that he would never be mean in his life, and that he would abide by his mother's teachings when he was greedy and flattering. Ruan Yuan, a scholar of the University, convinced him to be knowledgeable and encouraged him to write a book. Ting Zhen said, "the mystery of the six classics is that people used to talk about it first, so why do they talk about it in a long way? The reason why we analyze the meaning of reading lies in the fact that there is a master in it. " Taking Pu Jian, or Gongsun Hong, he said with a smile: "the eldest man is not ashamed of Qu xueashi, but afraid of being ridiculed by Bu?" Later on, he paid homage to the emperor by writing, saying that he was not religious, saying, "I'm afraid I will be lost in another day." The official had an example to send to the censor. He could not hold it and said, "how can we establish a dynasty when the people are gorgeous but not real?" After all as said, people are convinced of its fine lessons.

Character evaluation

Mr. Dao Guangyu

Wang Tingzhen, a strict and resolute character, was a sacrificial drinker at first. He regarded himself as a teacher and engraved chengjunkeshi Lu. He advocated that "teachers should set up their own ideas and laws, and strongly avoid the habit of copying and plagiarizing.". At the beginning of his tenure as a scholar in Anhui Province, he established five academic treaties to train scholars. The fifth part of XueYue is the embodiment of Wang Tingzhen's educational thought: "one day to distinguish and spread.". This is where the heart is divided. For oneself and for people, the academic distinction lies in this, and those who have a will should make a distinction.

It's the end of the day. The scholar is the head of the four people. Everything in the world is my duty. From Gongqing to Yiming officials, they are all scholars. Therefore, through the ancient and modern times, we can reach the event, which is a useful study.

One day dedication. As a contemporary writer, the integration of ancient Chinese prose is as follows: epitaph, biography, description and preface. The plagiarist who imitates is not good at writing, but is not good at writing.

One day, the puppets will be judged. It is said that the thesis of Changli is only true, my thesis is only true, and that the cover can be true, and then it can not be obtained

Stand on your own. When the text cannot be changed. It is also a matter for scholars to change their mind and return to the right. It's a good idea to take the old cud dog and imitate it. "

From the above five points of view, Wang Tingzhen's educational thought attaches great importance to guiding scholars to make clear the purpose of studying and learning, especially emphasizing that scholars should take the world as their own responsibility, master practical learning, be righteous and not for their own benefit. In his academic methods, he opposed to following the stereotype of his predecessors, and advocated to adjust measures to the situation, seek truth and distinguish wrong, and establish his own independent opinions without being influenced by the social atmosphere. Therefore, he called his study "seeking truth from facts". Wang Tingzhen also settled a long-standing dispute during her term of office in Jiangxi. First, the immigrants in Wanzai county were naturalized, and they were given school places. Later, they were dismissed. The local Hakka people had a long dispute over it, and they could not make a decision. After Ting Zhen arrived, she resolutely applied for another school place, so that the local Hakka students could get a chance to enter school again.

Wang Tingzhen, who has always followed his mother's teachings and lived a frugal life, was compared to the Han Dynasty scholar Sun Hong. He said with a smile, "it's shameful for a man not to take the evil song's academic style as the world's favorite, but only to be afraid of being ridiculed by others for his clothes." he is stern and decent, with proper manners and courtesy, and does not quarrel with important people. His subordinates are in awe of him. Ruan Yuan, a scholar of the University, admired him for his erudition and advised him to write books. Ting Zhen said: "the mystery of the six classics is in my foreword. Why should I talk about it again? The purpose of reading is to understand the truth and the gist." Although he didn't write any special works, he wrote many prefaces and postscripts of books and periodicals, and sang many poems with others. Later, he compiled the collection of seeking truth from facts. There are many articles in Shanyang Yiwenzhi.
