Hearing this voice, even Emperor Baoding did not dare to act rashly.”The imperial capital of Baoding had to call him brother, let alone the others. The Baoding Emperor's throne was passed down by him. He was the dignified Emperor, so how could he tolerate a nineteen-year-old brat acting wildly in front of him?
"Remember Mencius, Confucius, the Book of Changes, the Book of Changes, the Book of the Great Ming King, and the Heart Sutra. If you can memorize these six scriptures, I think you'll be able to become an emperor. Then what you said just now might make sense. There's no harm in letting you practice the Six Pulses Divine Sword first. If you can't memorize them, don't mention it in the future.”The old monk's voice was filled with dignity. After all, he was an emperor on horseback. Although he had only been an emperor for a year after the rebellion was quelled, that was still the attitude of a generation's leader.
"Royal brother's words are reasonable." Emperor Bao Ding was overjoyed when he heard that. How was this a test? It was practically announcing that Duan Yu could cultivate the Six Pulses Divine Sword. Because, if Duan Yuwu was not good, it might be reasonable. However, when it came to literature, music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, there was nothing Duan Yu was not proficient in.
And it was not an exaggeration to describe it as 'studious'.
"Hmph, it's reasonable. I also know that this kid's literary foundation is not bad, so I'll recite the Heart Sutra backwards. If he really did pass, then there was no harm in letting him practice with the Six Pulses Divine Sword.”
"Alright." Hearing this, Duan Yu was also forthright. However, he was thinking in his heart,"Uncle, why are you interrupting? If I had known earlier, I would have memorized it first."
Actually, there wasn't much difference between reciting it upside down and reciting it from the front. Using photographic memory to describe Duan Yu was perhaps not the slightest bit too much.
In Duan Yu's mind, he had really memorized every page of the Book of Changes. Therefore, to Duan Yu, he was reading the books in his mind. It was just a difference between reading forward and backward.
" Hadevasatipu, Gautama.”The first thing Duan Yu chose was to recite the Heart Sutra backwards. It was a few hundred words long and could be considered to have been completely memorized. Although there were some setbacks in the middle, overall, it was still considered smooth.
"Am I wrong?" The Great Emperor asked the monk who was comparing the scriptures with Duan Yu. He was a master who cultivated Buddhism, so how could he not know that Duan Yu was right? He just wanted everyone to know.
"Reporting to senior brother, there is no mistake." The monk was also honest. Moreover, it was indeed admirable for a teenager to be able to recite the Heart Sutra backward.
"Continue." The Great Central Emperor said softly and closed his eyes again. It was as if Duan Yu's endorsement had nothing to do with him.
"Dao can be Dao, but it is not the same Dao; name can be named, but it is not the same name.……Words are not beautiful, and words are not true. A good man does not argue, and a good man does not argue.
The wise do not know much, and the knowledgeable do not know much. The sage does not accumulate, since he thinks that others have more, since he thinks that others have more. The way of heaven is to benefit and not harm. The path of a Saint is to fight for it, not to fight for it." Duan Yu recited the Tao Te Ching again. The Tao Te Ching only had a total of 5,000 words, so it was naturally not difficult.
However, this Great Emperor seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for Duan Yu as he said again,""Explain the Tao Te Ching to me from the beginning.”The Great Central Emperor's words made Duan Yu furious. This old monk was too detestable.
At this moment, Emperor Baoding was smiling. Emperor Bao Ding and Emperor Da Zhong were cousins. According to seniority, Duan Yu should also call this Great Central Deity uncle. This Great Central Deity was not making things difficult for Duan Yu, he was simply making a name for him. Others might not know Duan Yu's worth, but how could he, the Great Emperor, not know? Everything that was said now was from Duan Yuhui, which explained the situation.
The more the Great Emperor was like this, the more picky he was and the more difficult it was for Duan Yu. The more perfect Duan Yu's answer was, the more speechless the other monks were. Then Duan Yu's Six Pulses Divine Sword would definitely be learned.
"A Daoist…doing without fighting is the beginning of doing nothing ~" Duan Yu said seven versions in a row according to the translation he saw in his memory. The last two versions left the old monk, who was taking out the book to compare, speechless. He could only stare at the side.
Even Duan Yu himself was speechless. Could it be that this bookworm had lived to nineteen years old and had been reading books and memorizing since he was born?
"Continue." The Great Central Thearch's voice sounded again. When Duan Yu was about to start reciting the other scriptures, he said," Wait, tell me your own understanding of the Tao Te Ching first.”
" Dao, so…" Another round of answers finally hit the nail on the head. In the middle, he also added some understanding of the Dao in the 21st century. Dao was everywhere, but there was no such sophistry. Duan Yu was about to say something, but the old monks fell into deep thought.
After a while, a few old monks who had read the Tao Te Ching could not help but bow to Duan Yu."We can't compare to the prince's comprehension.”
At this moment, let alone those old monks, even Emperor Baoding beside him felt ashamed of himself. Duan Yu explained a few things that he didn't understand. However, when he saw the old monks nodding their heads, he was too embarrassed to interrupt.
The Book of Changes, this divine book, was Duan Yu's weakness. Although he had gained a lot of enlightenment, it was still not enough to fully understand it. However, these views that he had not fully understood were still above the understanding of many old monks. Therefore, these old monks did not say anything. They only sighed in their hearts. This child was really a god.
"What do you think?" The Great Central Emperor did not speak. The one who spoke was the Baoding Emperor. Although he did not understand many of the points, it did not mean that he could not see the extent of Duan Yu's recitation and understanding. After a day and night of memorizing, he had also comprehended a lot, and his understanding of martial arts had also improved. Naturally, he was more proud now.
Fortunately, he was an emperor. Otherwise, he would probably say that he was his nephew when he went out to meet people.
"Although there were some mistakes, some mistakes, it was not your fault, but the problem of the editor's understanding. Next, tell me about the path of becoming an emperor.”Seeing that the Great Central Emperor had actually come out to disrupt the situation, Duan Yu really had the urge to kill him.
The matter that could have been solved in ten to six hours had been delayed for a day and a night. Now, he was actually talking about the path of becoming an emperor.
"Yu 'er believes that as an emperor, one should follow the Zhenguan Emperor of the Central Plains. The people are the water, and the monarch is the boat. Jun Min Shui is the way for the king." In Duan Yu's body, he had never thought about becoming an emperor. After all, he was only the son of a prince. He was still far from becoming an emperor.
