Wonderful book excerpts
Wang Yangming's ancestors.
In 1525, Wang Yangming was in his hometown of Yuyao, the third year of his father's death and the last year of his filial piety. In the ancients, when his parents died, his son had to keep filial piety at home for three years. Wang Yangming lectures to people every day, and learns from friends and people, and lives a very idle life.
This year, a young man named Zhang Siqin (Qin) traveled thousands of miles from his hometown of Shaanxi to Yuyao to visit Wang Yangming and beg him to write an epitaph for his father. Wang Yangming was moved by Zhang Siqin's persistence and filial piety, and said to him: I know, you want to let your father be remembered forever through my article, this filial piety is touching. In fact, if you really want to make your father famous, you should make yourself a virtuous man rather than through someone else's words. When Zhang Siqin heard this, he immediately dispelled the idea of asking Wang Yangming to write an epitaph, and worshipped Wang Yangming as his teacher.
Wang Yangming has won fame for his ancestors, because of him, the life deeds of his ancestors have been searched and organized, and we can revisit this family tree. We can know from this what kind of family environment Wang Yangming's lofty and firm ambitions, admirable talents, and continuous exploration and practice of ideals are nurtured.
There are two different theories about Wang Yangming's ancestor: one is that his ancestor was the famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi; Another theory is that his ancestor was Wang Xiang, the protagonist of "Lying on Ice and Seeking Carp". We're not going to say which one is true. Wang Yangming's family genealogy has gradually become clear and accurate since his sixth ancestor, Wang Gangcai.
Wang Gang wrote well in poetry and was very strong in military ability, but he had always lived a reclusive life. Later, because his mother was old and needed to be supported, he had to go out to do things. When Wang Gang was in his sixties, he was recommended to be an official in the imperial court. Later, when war broke out in Chaozhou, he went to the rebel camp alone, persuaded the rebel leader, and quelled the trouble. On the way home, he was killed by the Miao people. His son, Wang Yanda, who was sixteen years old at the time, was with him, and the Miao people asked Yanda to take his father's body. We know very little about Wang Yanda, the fifth ancestor of Wang Yangming. I only know that Wang Yanda witnessed the tragic death of his father and was greatly shocked, and the court invited him to come out as an official several times, but he resolutely refused. Wang Yanda has relied on farming to support his family all his life. When he was old, Wang Yanda told his son Wang Hezhun (the word Gongdu) that he should not seek to be an official, study hard, and live a good life. The king and the brigadier took his father's instructions to heart.
Wang Youzhun listened to his father's words very much, resolutely did not come out to be an official, and read all the books in the family seriously. Later, he went to Siming (now Ningbo) to worship Mr. Zhao as his teacher, specializing in the study of the Book of Changes. The longer Mr. Zhao and Wang Youzhun got along, the more they admired his integrity and character, so he married a younger sister in his family to him. He also persuaded Wang Youzhun to go out to be an official, and Wang Youzhun said: Didn't you teach me to stay away from the troubles of the world before? I'm going to do it for the rest of my life. When Mr. Zhao heard this, he admired Wang and Zhun even more for their insistence on the ambition of seclusion, and never again did official business in front of Wang and Zhun.
Wang Youzhun is very good at divination, and when he has time, he calculates by himself, and sometimes he will give others a hexagram, which is very accurate. Later, people in the neighborhood came to ask him for divination, and even the prefectural order sent people to ask him for divination. The county order sometimes asks the king and the quasi-divination two or three times a day. Wang Youzhun really couldn't bear such disturbances, and once, in front of the people sent by the county order, he burned all the divination books. In order to avoid the retribution of the county order, Wang Youzhun had to flee to Siming Mountain, hid in the stone room, and lived for more than a year. At that time, the imperial court sent people to find the wizards hidden in the people, and the envoy came to Shaoxing Mansion, intending to use Wang and Zhun, and the county order took the opportunity to say bad things about Wang and Zhun to the messenger, and the messenger ordered people to arrest Wang and Zhun's three sons, and also sent people to search for Wang and Zhun. When Wang Youzhun heard the news, he had to flee deep into the mountains, and accidentally, he fell off the cliff and broke his leg, but was finally caught. When the envoy saw that although Wang Hezhun was seriously wounded, his words and deeds were frank and magnanimous, so he asked for details. Wang and Zhun told the cause and effect of the incident, and the messenger understood the truth and released Wang and Zhun, but said to him: "If you don't come out to be an official, it is estimated that you will be convicted, so let your son replace you." Wang Youzhun had no choice but to let his second son Wang Jie go to the county school to fill the vacancy of students in the county school.
