Usage: subject-predicate type; As a predicate; Object; Refers to a person who studies hard and has a good reputation.

Canon reason:

Books in the Spring and Autumn Period were mainly made of bamboo. Bamboo is broken into bamboo sticks, called bamboo slips, then dried with fire and written on them. Bamboo slips have a certain length and width, and a bamboo slip can only write one line, ranging from dozens to eight or nine. A book needs a lot of bamboo slips, which must be woven together with strong ropes and the like before it can be read. Books like Yi, of course, are made of many bamboo slips, so they have considerable weight.

Kong Qiu spent a lot of energy reading the Book of Changes and basically understood its contents. I quickly read it for the second time and grasped its basic points. Then, he read it for the third time and had a thorough understanding of its spiritual essence. Later, in order to study the book deeply and explain it to his disciples, he read it many times. After reading this way, the cowhide belt of serial bamboo slips has been worn off several times, and it has to be replaced with a new one and reused many times.

Even after reading these, Confucius said modestly, "If I were allowed to live a few more years, I would fully master the text and quality of the Book of Changes."

"Bian Wei's Three Masterpieces" is the allusion of Confucius' diligent reading of The Book of Changes. "Historical Records Confucius Family" contains: "Confucius is happy in the evening, and it is easy to order Xun, Xiang, Shuo Gua and Classical Chinese. The three works compiled by Reading Yi and Wei have their own characteristics. He said,' Leave me for a few years. If so, I will be gentle and easy.' Traditionally, Confucius liked to read the Book of Changes in his later years, including The Book of Changes, Image Numbers, Cohesion, Classical Chinese, Preface, Shuo Gua, Za Gua and so on. , collectively known as "Ten Wings", also known as "Yi Da Chuan". Wei, cooked cowhide. In ancient times, books were written with bamboo pieces, and then made into books with pimps. Third, refers to many times. Never, never. Confucius read the Book of Changes diligently, which led to the pimp being broken many times. He also said: "If you give me a few more years, I will have a richer understanding of Yi." The Analects of Confucius said: "Confucius said:' Add me a few years old and learn the Book of Changes at fifty, so there is no big deal. "",plus hypocrisy. When you start learning Zhouyi at the age of fifty, you can stop making big mistakes.

In Song Dynasty, Ouyang Xiu wrote Yi Tong Wen Zi, which caused many questions. He thinks that "Ten Wings" and "None of them is the work of a saint" and "It is not the words of one person". Since then, the date of completion and the author of the Book of Changes and the Book of Changes have become a lingering issue in academic circles. Many people deny the relationship between Confucius and Yijing, and then deny the relationship between Confucius and Yijing.

General scholars believe that the Book of Changes was written in the late Yin Dynasty and early Zhou Dynasty, while the Book of Changes was written in the Warring States Period. Although Ten Wings was not written by Confucius alone, it is hard to deny the close relationship between the Book of Changes and Confucius.

According to Zuo Zhuan and Guoyu, there were more than 20 people who cited the Book of Changes for divination in the Spring and Autumn Period. People who study the Book of Changes are distributed in Zhou, Shandong, Wei, Zheng, Jin, Qi and Qin countries, which shows that the Book of Changes was popular at that time and there were many learners, and it may still be a fashion now. In this social atmosphere, Confucius, as a great scholar who traveled around the world, how could he not study or talk about Yi? Historical Records Biography of the Scholars also records the system of Confucius biographies in the Book of Changes. Confucius spread the Shang Qu of Lu Yi, and the Shang Qu was spread in Qi Tianhe. Tian Hechuan is a soldier, from Yang He, who passed to Luanchuan, to Jimo City, from Guang Chuan, from Lu, from Ju to Henghu, and from Zhufuyan. Hanshu supplements the four generations left out in historical records, namely, Ren Zhong of Donglu Bridge, the bow of Ma Gan's arm in Jiangdong, the ugly family in Yanzhou, and Zi Cheng of Yu Sun in Wu Dong (also known as Ren Guangyu in Spring Rain).

There are six appendices in Zhouyi, a silk book unearthed from Mawangdui Han Tomb, which are two or three characters, cohesion, Yizhiyi, Yao Yao, Miuhe and Zhao Li. According to Liao Mingchun's textual research, these works should be in the middle and late Warring States period, not later than Lu Chunqiu and Han Feizi. The question of two or three sons records the dialogue between Confucius and Zigong and other disciples about Zhouyi. From the above information, we can see that Confucius really liked reading Zhouyi in his later years, but he studied Zhouyi seriously, so that Wei compiled three unique works. I also taught students Zhouyi. Traditionally, Confucius wrote ten wings. Later generations studied the Ten Wings and found that it was inconsistent with the traditional view. For example, in Ten Wings, there is often a book about Confucius, which was written by Confucius himself, so it is impossible to write Confucius. Presumably, at first Confucius said that after several generations of teaching, by the middle of the Warring States period, those who passed the book on bamboo and silk were really books. It is understandable that the propagator of the Book of Changes adopted the viewpoint of the propagator of the Book of Changes since Confucius and compiled a systematic Book of Changes, which is called the Biography of Confucius. It also naturally includes the research results of the inheritors of the Book of Changes. Because some ideas and opinions were not written by Confucius, it is not appropriate to think that Confucius has nothing to do with Yi Zhuan. On the contrary, if you think it was handed down by Confucius, then every sentence must have been written by Confucius, and it may not be appropriate.
