Chapter 1721 (2/2)
”Tell me about it,” Fang Yun said.
”First of all, it is well known that cars share the same track and books share the same text. It is very important for the human race to write in the same words. In those years, the six countries had many characters and were extremely chaotic. Even Kong Shengdu pointed out that the Qin emperor could solve it finally. Secondly, min Bao” It's mainly to convey to the people... Using the words you often say is to convey information. A unified text can ensure that the information is correct and avoid ambiguity. As for other benefits, I won't mention them more. I'm sure you know. ”Zeng Yuandao.
Fang Yun smiled and said, ”you're right. I just ask you, do you want the world to be the same, people to people, civilians to aristocratic families, or do you think people are divided, and the children of aristocratic families should enjoy privileges? Say what you mean, don't hide it at all.”
Zeng yuan was stunned and said helplessly: ”There are contradictions in the sacred way of the human race. Some people say that Kong Sheng's Great Harmony in the world refers to the restoration of Zhou rites and the order of the world. Xunzi also said that the human race should be divided into high and low. However, others say that Kong Sheng's restoration of Zhou rites is only an ideal before the canonization. After the canonization, Kong Sheng looked at the long river of history. The so-called Great Harmony in the world naturally performs its own duties, but people are different. Read the sage Books, learning, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith. As Chinese children, there are naturally people with the same ideas in their bones, but in fact, most people have to admit that people are divided. We are children of an aristocratic family. It's OK to enjoy some privileges under the shadow of our predecessors. ”
”Therefore, you are opposed to colloquial characters and vernacular. Of course, using 'objection' may not be accurate. At least, you think that regular characters and written language are better and more suitable for the current human race.” Fang Yun said.
Zeng yuan was stunned and vaguely understood Fang Yun's meaning, but he couldn't think it through.
Fang Yun said, ”I'm a child of a poor family. You are a child of an aristocratic family. You and I know each other well. Then I ask you a few simple questions. Most of the common characters I write have fewer strokes than the normal characters. Is the normal characters easy to remember or the common characters easier to learn?”
”Naturally, colloquial characters are easier to learn.”
”That's good. I'm from a poor family. You're from an aristocratic family. If you and I have the same brain and are smart enough to learn only orthographic characters for a hundred days, who can learn to remember more characters?” Fang Yun asked.
”There should be little difference,” Zeng Yuan said tentatively.
”When you were studying, you got up early every day, opened your mouth for meals, stretched out your hands for clothes, and were taken care of by servants. You were sent to the aristocratic family school to study at noon, and then had a reasonable meal. After taking a nap, you continued to study and went home at night. You hardly had to consider other things. What I said was right?” Fang Yun asked.
”Yes, most of the children of our aristocratic family go to school like this.” Zeng yuan understood Fang Yun's meaning.
