He said to his younger brother: "You have ruined my elegance."
The husband believed that Confucian classics Xu Shen's "Shuowen Jiezi" should be printed and distributed in Anhui to educate scholars based on text exegesis. He also submitted a memorial to collect the lost books that copied the "Yongle Dadian". When the emperor saw the memorial, he thought it was different, so he ordered the Siku Quanshu Library to be opened, and he wrote a poem to commemorate this event. And because there are errors in the text transmission of the Thirteen Classics.
The petition requested that following the precedents of the Xiping period of the Han Dynasty and the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Confucian ministers should be chosen to correct the text, and a stone tablet should be erected in Taixue. He accepted the emperor's oral order and postponed the processing, so he wrote several "Similar and Differences in Texts of the Thirteen Classics" The volume is hidden at home. As a result, scholars in Anhui and Fujian learned to pay attention to fundamental knowledge after hearing his unfinished and knowledgeable remarks. People in the world who were eager to learn and write articles admired him and studied with him.
People like Dai Zheng, Junzhen, and Wang Zhenniansun studied deeply in the study of Confucian classics. When they were unsuccessful, they worked in the shogunate of the master. In the end, they became famous at the time because of their writing articles, which probably originated from the master. of.
The gentleman is strong and hates bad people. Vulgar people dare not enter his door, but he is full of praise for the poor if they have some good points. When he was in the capital, the ruts on the road were broken by those who drank wine and asked him questions. Wherever he went, there were dozens or hundreds of people who followed him on his study tour. After gaining seniority and high prestige, (he) strongly advocated that literati should regard reading and cultivating moral character as their duty, and should not ingratiate themselves with the powerful.
When he was supervising schools in Anhui, he represented the original scholars of Wuyuan, such as Jiang Yong and Wang Fu, and worshiped their souls in the Xiangxian Temple to encourage the simple and studious scholars.
In Fujian, he and his younger brother Zhu Gui took office one after another, which became a great event for a while, and the scholars in Fujian climbed on the shafts of carriages to retain him and ran to see him off, and they continued for hundreds of miles.
Later, when Wen Zhenggong presided over culture and education, all the celebrities in the world secretly sought and promoted people, most of whom were like-minded and admired by their husbands. Therefore, people called the scholars who studied the classics and liked ancient things the "Zhu School".
My husband has been doing archeology all year round, and he also likes epigraphy and inscriptions, saying that these can prove the history of scriptures. He wrote articles to imitate Sima Qian and Ban Gu, and was especially good at narrative. He is proficient in calligraphy and knows the Six Books, and has the institutional structure before the Sui Dynasty. He has a collection of thousands of books and is always full of guests, whose conversations will captivate him for a lifetime. In the famous mountains and rivers I visited, I searched for strange things and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. People in the capital recited and chanted it, and they have not stopped to this day.
