Confucius was the founder of the Confucian school in China, and he was also the greatest thinker, politician, and educator in China, and was revered by the world as a sage of Confucius.
Famous and far-reaching, not only in our country women and children are well-known, but also in the world are well-known, his ideas have a profound impact on the world, and he has no suspense to be listed as the first of the "world's top ten cultural celebrities".
The reason why Confucius has such a high status is of course inseparable from his erudition, so Confucius is also called the most holy by the world, and the teaching style is enjoyable.
There was such an interesting incident in Confucius, in the Spring and Autumn Period of juguo, a prodigy was born, this person named Xiang Qi, although only seven years old, but compared with his peers but a lot older than his peers, he was very knowledgeable, and even by posterity to be respected as a holy gong.
Speaking of the inseparable relationship between the prodigy Xiang Qiao and Xiang Yu, on the generations of Xiang Yu is still the ancestor of Xiang Yu, in the Xiang clan genealogy, the tenth generation is Xiang Rong, Xiang Rong is Xiang Yu's father, which shows that the relationship between Xiang Yu and Xiang Yu is not ordinary.
About the origin of the name Xiangqi, there is a small story, Xiangqiao was born on the mountain, the father was not by the side of his wife and children at that time, after hearing about this, he greeted his wife and children non-stop, when the father saw his son, he found that his son was square and round, and the ground was full, like a small pocket, and the ancients called the pocket a bridge, so there was the name of Xiangqi.
It seems that the father named XiangQi is also very casual, and now Xiangqiao is not to be called "Xiang Pocket".
But Xiang Qi's people are not as casual as his name, and as time flies, Xiang Qi also grows up slowly, and the bigger he gets, the more his talent is slowly revealed.
Sometimes he was curious to ask questions that even his parents could not answer, which showed how profound Xiang Qi's knowledge was, and why Xiang Qi could have such a high understanding, this was impossible to know, and most of the posterity used genius to describe him.
One winter, Confucius traveled east to give a lecture, and happened to meet Xiang Qi, who was painting on the road, and it was because Xiang Qi was painting on the ground that Confucius was blocked from going on the way, and Confucius was curious about what this child was doing, so he got off the carriage and went to inspect it.
Confucius took a closer look, Xiang Qi's painting was very similar to a realistic city, and he was very happy to see it, afraid of stepping on Xiang Qi's painting, so he went around to the side.
Unexpectedly, Confucius detoured XiangQiao was still angry, and he angrily said to Confucius: You don't pay any attention to rules, this has a city gate, you don't have to take a detour, is this not good?
Confucius laughed and explained that he was not taking a detour, but could not bear to step on the paintings he had drawn, but Xiang Qiu said bluntly, painting the city gate is to let go, otherwise what would I paint him for?
This sentence completely aroused Confucius's desire to understand this child, so he said to him, "The city gate you painted is so small, how can someone as big as me live?"
Xiang Qi was stunned after listening to it, but his reaction was also very fast, he picked up the branch and ran to Confucius, drew a door of nothingness, and said to Confucius that the painting was good.
Confucius immediately thought that this child was really interesting, and invited Xiang Qi to go forward together, and Xiang Qi did not refuse to come to know himself, so he walked with Confucius.
On the way, Confucius planned to test Xiang Qiao and asked: Do you know how many stars there are in the sky? Confucius thought to himself that it would be difficult for you to do this, and when he was proud, Xiang Xi replied that there were stars one day and one night in the sky.
Hearing this answer, Confucius thoroughly admired the child's intelligence, although this is not an accurate answer, but no one can be very accurate in this question, only unreasonable.
After hearing Xiang Qi's answer, Confucius was completely conquered by Xiang Qi's wisdom, although Xiang Qi did not exactly say how many stars there were in the sky, but his answer was not wrong, not to mention that this was only a seven-year-old child, and it was already remarkable to think of this answer.
However, Confucius could not answer the question raised by Xiang Qi, so Confucius said, "The threesome will have my teacher", and this child can be my teacher, so Confucius only worshiped the seven-year-old Xiang Qi as a teacher.
