Chapter 37-Cao Xuan Offends Kong Rong, Unperturbed by Honor and Disgrace! (New book, evaluation ticket!)
"Xuan Cao, please enter the palace for an audience ~"
The eunuch in front of the hall announced loudly.
Everyone in the hall focused their attention on the door of the throne room.
Over the past month, the name Cao Xuan had almost caused calluses to appear in the ears of the people of Xudu.
However, they had only heard of his name and had never seen him.
Today, he finally had a chance to reveal his true identity.
Outside the hall.
Cao Xuan, who was dressed in a long black robe, stood straight.
After nearly a year of martial arts training and all kinds of nourishment, Cao Xuan had become much stronger.
Moreover, his eyes flickered with the wisdom of his peers.
When Cao Xuan stepped into the hall, the eyes of all the officials in the hall lit up.
Let's not talk about whether this Three Character Classic was written by Cao Xuan or not.
Just Cao Xuan's appearance and image were enough to make people's eyes light up.
Cao Xuan walked up the hall step by step.
Facing the gazes of all the officials, there was no trace of fear or panic in his eyes.
It was as if he was strolling in his own backyard.
Just this temperament and bearing was enough to prove Cao Xuan's extraordinariness.
Although the verification had yet to begin, many people believed that the Three Character Classic was probably from this child.
For a normal six or seven-year-old child to step into the palace for the first time and face so many people's gazes, wouldn't it be possible for him to not even feel a trace of nervousness?
It was impossible.
Not to mention a child, even an adult might not be able to do this.
Cao Xuan walked step by step to the front of the hall and saw Cao Cao and Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie, sitting behind the dragon table.
Cao Cao looked at Cao Xuan with a gratified smile.
After seeing Cao Xuan's performance, Cao Cao felt even more gratified and happy.
He was just short of shouting on the spot,"My Saint Child."
"I, Cao Xuan, pay my respects to Your Majesty." Cao Xuan came to the front of the hall and bowed to Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie, who was behind the dragon table.
Liu Xie, who was sitting behind the dragon table, sized up Cao Xuan carefully.
Then, he looked at Cao Cao,"My dear minister, is this Cao Xuan, the author of the Three Character Classic?"”
Cao Cao nodded proudly.
"That's right, it's my family's Lin 'er Cao Xuan.”
Other than Liu Xie, the other person who was carefully sizing up Cao Xuan was Kong Rong.
Cao Xuan's performance was far beyond that of a six or seven-year-old child, and even most adults could not compare.
But in Kong Rong's opinion, writing a book was absolutely impossible.
If a six or seven-year-old child were to say that he was familiar with the Book of Songs after enlightenment, Kong Rong would barely believe it.
But writing books...
This was a level that only many famous scholars could reach.
Since when could a six or seven-year-old child write a book?
Cao Cao was clearly using this method to achieve his goal of becoming famous.
Kong Rong only had one goal today, and that was to expose Cao Cao's lies.
Let the world see Cao Cao's true colors.
Thus, Kong Rong spoke up as soon as Cao Cao finished speaking.
"Cao Xuan, let me ask you, was the Three Character Classic written by you? Where did the inspiration for the book come from?”Kong Rong asked.
Cao Xuan looked at Kong Rong. Of course, he didn't know who Kong Rong was.
Thus, he turned to look at Cao Cao.
Cao Cao's lips curled up into a cold smile. He then introduced them to Cao Xuan,""Xuan 'er, this is the current Young Lord's Mansion, Kong Rong, Kong Wenju.”
Cao Xuan immediately looked at Kong Rong.
So this was the four-year-old Kong Rong who gave in to her?
The descendant of Confucius.
Cao Xuan vaguely remembered that Kong Rong was killed by Cao Cao after offending him many times.
Thinking of this, Cao Xuan understood the situation.
Looking at Kong Rong's expression and Liu Xie's expression behind the Dragon Case, Cao Xuan knew that Kong Rong might be looking for trouble today.
He smiled at Cao Cao, who understood.
"Back to Young Master Kong's Mansion, the Three Character Classic was written by Cao Xuan. As for why he wrote this book, it was because Cao Xuan felt that the content of the Book of Songs was not suitable for enlightenment and was cumbersome.”
"Thus, there was the Three Character Classic." Cao Xuan said frankly.
As a plagiarist, Cao Xuan had nothing to be embarrassed about.
He had only copied the Three Character Classic and so on. As for the poems of the Sage of Poets, he had not even started.
Besides, the Three Character Classic could more or less promote the development of education.
Compared to those poems that only knew how to cultivate one's sentiments, this could be considered a contribution.
Therefore, Cao Xuan naturally copied it with confidence.
"Cao Xuan, how can you prove that you wrote this book?”Kong Rong asked again.
Cao Xuan smiled and shook his head." Young Master Kong, you're right. Why should I prove that I wrote this book?"”
"Could it be that Young Master Kong has heard of this book before?”
"Or does Young Master Kong think that I, Cao Xuan, plagiarized someone else's book?”
Cao Xuan's words were sharp, not giving Kong Rong any face at all.
Seeing Cao Xuan's performance, Cao Cao's eyes lit up.
Cao Xuan had always been very humble in front of his family.
Cao Cao was very satisfied with this.
Cao Cao was worried about the unit.
If a person was too kind, he was not suitable to be a superior.
However, seeing Cao Xuan's current performance, Cao Cao dispelled the last bit of worry in his heart.
He was modest, friendly, and tolerant to his own people.
One should treat the enemy like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves.
Cao Xuan was able to quickly distinguish between friend and foe and retaliate. This wisdom made Cao Cao very satisfied.
Cao Cao was originally prepared to help Cao Xuan, but now, Cao Cao was just watching a show.
However, Kong Rong was Kong Rong after all, not some small fry.
He was rendered speechless by Cao Xuan's words.
"Youngest son, your words are very interesting. Even if you didn't plagiarize, it doesn't mean that you wrote this book. Can't you borrow someone else's hands and wear someone else's wedding dress?”
"If this book was written by someone else, but you used it as a wedding dress, wouldn't it be a lie to gain fame?”Kong Rong sneered at Cao Xuan.
"If that's the case, how can Young Master Kong prove that you wrote the book yourself?" Cao Xuan sneered.”
"Can't Young Master Kong's Residence borrow the hands of others to make a name for themselves?”
The moment Cao Xuan said this, the civil and military officials in the hall almost said something interesting.
The way they looked at Cao Xuan changed.
A six or seven-year-old child's words were actually so sharp, and he even knew that the stones of other mountains could be used to polish jade.
The civil and military officials in the hall all gave Cao Xuan a very high evaluation.
"What a joke." Kong Rong sneered at Cao Xuan and said,"Do I, Kong Rong, need to borrow the hands of others?”
"Your youngest son is so funny.”
Cao Xuan said bluntly,""What's wrong?"
"Just because Young Master Kong's Mansion is famous, just because I, Cao Xuan, am young?”
"Is this the logic of Young Master Kong's residence?"
"If Young Master Kong is so reasonable, then the older the person, the more famous the person is, can he say that the Book of Songs and the Book of History are all written by him?”
"Don't you think it's ridiculous to judge knowledge by age?”
"Then can I say that when Young Master Kong was four years old, he gave Li to others because of someone else's will?”
"If Young Master Kong says no, then Young Master Kong, please prove it.”
