Chapter 430: Yasheng
Chapter 430 Ya Sheng
Many ministers are sick and request to rest at home today.
Emperor Hongzhi was a little dazed looking at the memorials for leave.
Liu Jian's old illness relapsed.
Xie Qian was not feeling well.
Minister of Rites Zhang Sheng sprained his ankle last night.
Hanlin University Bachelor…
There are many reasons.
Of course, people still use the Spring and Autumn style of writing. Although they are sick, they don’t say death, leaving a little bit of leeway. The general meaning is that maybe the body is not feeling well, so...um...take a break.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Jing who was at the side.
Xiao Jing said with a smile: "Today is a grand meeting, new learning has become popular recently, and the Confucianism of Confucianism..."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded.
This is a major event in Shilin. No wonder some people are going to sue for illness. Most of them are very itchy. They really want to see it, so they used the spring and autumn style of writing. After all, directly speaking of the emperor, I want to join in the fun, Emperor Hongzhi Magnanimous, I think it will be granted, but the memorial will be archived. If it is sent to the Imperial Academy, or it is recorded and spread, it will have an impact on the reputation of the imperial court.
To report illness is not for the emperor, but for the people of the world; the ministers of the Ming Dynasty will definitely not ask for leave just to join in the fun. Just kidding, if you are not sick and out of breath, dare you rest?
Behind the memorabilia, there is a hint to the emperor that they are not really sick, but... there is something else hidden.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "It's really just the right time for the meeting, I... have become curious."
At this moment, a young **** came in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, Li Dongyang, a cabinet scholar, and Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, ask to see you."
Emperor Hongzhi just thought about it, and when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
I really can't rest.
After thinking for a while, he looked down at the leave notice. Emperor Hongzhi said: "Tell them that there is no need to act today."
"Your Majesty, they are all here..."
Emperor Hongzhi said calmly: "Let's just say that I have a little cold and feel unwell. Send them back."
"Follow the order."
Emperor Hongzhi stood up and glanced at Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing already understood something.
Emperor Hongzhi explained: "Don't make a big fanfare."
"The servant knows."
"Where is the prince?"
"His Royal Highness will definitely join in the fun. If you want to come, you must have been in Xishan."
Emperor Hongzhi gritted his teeth: "He will join in when there is excitement, and he has no majesty at all."
"Yes." Xiao Jing was thinking in his heart, Your Majesty...don't you want to join in the fun? Of course, he didn't dare to say: "Your Highness is still young, so naturally... be naughty."
"Get ready to go."
…………
In Honglu Temple, a group of people hurried out.
Walking in the front is Li Yi, King of Korea.
Afterwards, there were two envoys from North Korea.
They were all wearing Lun scarves, Confucian fir, and they looked heroic. Because they were traveling in casual clothes, they could not bother the officials of Honglu Temple, so they brought money and came out. So one of the envoys went first to hire a sedan chair. Outside Honglu Temple, there were indeed bearers who bargained with the envoy: "Xishan, it's far away, three hundred yuan."
"You son of a bitch." The envoy became anxious, and began to mutter in fluent Chinese: "Damn it, my little building in North Korea costs 50 yuan, and I want 38 yuan? Go to the ball! Fool!" Mile."
When Li Yi heard this, he felt that his retainers had insulted the dignity of the Korean state, so he patted him on the shoulder from behind, and said to the bearer: "Zhong, thirty-eight dollars is thirty-eight dollars."
After hearing this, the bearer happily invited Li Yi into the sedan chair.
Li Yi also learned from the officials in Honglu Temple that there will be abnormal debates in Xishan. He is very yearning for Sinology, not to mention that he has worshiped Liu Jie as his teacher, and one of the people who debated is actually his teacher. Wang Shouren, it is said that his Confucianism is profound and unfathomable.
This time, it is natural to join in the fun.
After all, this is not an official visit, so I am not worried about violating any etiquette.
He got into the sedan chair. Although he was the king of the vassal, he still had to put on airs to avoid being underestimated.
But even so, three hundred dollars... Distressed.
North Korea is very barren, to what extent is it so barren? Even Lord Dayuan’s annual salary is only a few dozen taels of silver. In this Ming Dynasty, fortunately there is Honglu Temple where food and drink are enshrined, otherwise... I would really think Die.
...
Liu Jian was dressed in civilian clothes and met many acquaintances. Then everyone smiled awkwardly, pretended not to know each other, and parted ways.
In this teahouse, the upper and lower floors are full of people.
Liu Jian saw his son Liu Jie from a distance. He didn't go forward, but hid in the corner. Unexpectedly, his footsteps moved a little, and he didn't know whose foot he stepped on. He looked over subconsciously: "Hold..."
The word apology didn't come out, and his face became a little stiff.
Your Majesty... Your Majesty...
Emperor Hongzhi was behind him, with his hands behind his back, watching with a smile, while Xiao Jing tried his best to push away the people around him, trying to make room for His Majesty.
Emperor Hongzhi also saw Liu Jian, and the two looked at each other, both showing meaningful expressions.
Liu Jian smiled wryly, trying to explain something, but Emperor Hongzhi only nodded slightly at him, and then moved to other places.
Liu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that His Majesty seemed to be enjoying it, he liked to drill into crowded places, but Xiao Jing was so anxious, I am afraid that many hidden guards outside were also sweating profusely.
Liu Jian smiled and ignored it.
...
Zhu Houzhao sat in the middle, bold and resolute, with the air of a dean.
Fang Jifan sat on the lower side of him, with a smile on his face, he made a lot of money today, not a loss.
Four disciples lined up behind Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan.
These four people, like the four great protectors, are all in high spirits.
Especially Ouyang Zhi, in the face of this hot scene, there was no fluctuation on his face. This kind of demeanor convinced everyone.
Wen Suchen, who was sitting opposite, seemed a little anxious. He seemed to see that Fang Jifan, who was opposite, seemed to be saying, haha, these fools who sent money.
Wen Suchen is a scholar, and scholars are sensitive. When he thinks of this, he wants to vomit blood.
Wang Shouren stepped forward with a smile and bowed: "The student has met Mr. Wen."
Graceful, with a smile on his face.
Wen Suchen got up, cupped his hands and saluted: "Editor Wang, I have long admired you. Please..."
In the teahouse, everything fell silent.
Seeing Wen Suchen's calm demeanor, everyone nodded secretly.
Looking at Wang Shouren again, he said, "Mr. Wen please first."
The tone is calm and Confucian.
Wen Suchen stroked his beard and smiled: "Then, I'm taking the liberty."
He paused, and said: "Cheng-Zhu Neo Confucianism has flourished for hundreds of years, and editor Wang has also read Cheng Zhu. Otherwise, how could he win the gold list and turn against Cheng Zhu?"
The first question made the silent spectators hold their breath.
This is a deadly question. There are tens of thousands of Cheng Zhu disciples in the world. How can you, the king editor, dare to oppose the sub-sage?
The meaning behind it is, why are you so overwhelmed!
Wang Shouren shook his head: "The students have never turned against Zhu."
Wen Suchen said with a smile: "Then, if you study objects to gain knowledge, and to study objects deeply, you can know the principles of nature. Does Editor Wang agree with these?"
Wang Shouren shook his head: "I don't agree."
"..."
Many people shook their heads secretly. This was just the beginning, and they fell into the trap.
Wang Shouren, it seems that's all.
Somewhere in the crowd, a certain person's heart skipped a beat. He looked straight at Wang Shouren, and a little disappointment flashed in his eyes. He wished that he would appear on the stage in person, but he held back and didn't make a sound.
Wen Suchen smiled: "You don't agree with the investigation of things and knowledge, so naturally you are against Cheng Zhu."
"No." Wang Shouren shook his head: "Students don't agree with the study of things to gain knowledge, because students don't understand the principles of nature in the study of things."
"what?"
"The student once tried to check the bamboo. After three days and three nights, nothing came out."
"..." Wen Suchen frowned.
Wang Shouren asked rhetorically, "Has Mr. Wen passed bamboo?"
Wen Suchen shook his head: "No."
"So, what is wrong with Mr. Wen?"
"This..." Wen Suchen felt that this guy was out of his mind, Gewu...how did he become Gezhu.
"Bamboo is not a thing?" It seems that Wang Shouren expected that Wen Suchen might take advantage of the loopholes, and directly blocked Wen Suchen's retreat.
Wen Suchen smiled slightly and said: "Everything is eligible, this is true."
"Then, why did the student Ge Zhu not understand the principles of nature?"
Wen Suchen took a deep breath, this Wang Shouren is really good at entanglement, biting a grid bamboo, chasing and beating himself, obviously everyone is studying theory, why are you always mentioning bamboo.
"Actually... the old man thinks that the things are all things, and the grids come and come. When things arrive, their minds can clearly distinguish them. Those who don't respond to things are the extension of knowledge and the ultimate knowledge. Knowing to the end Sincerity in intention, sincerity in mind, righteousness in heart, righteousness in heart, self-cultivation, self-cultivation and family integrity, family order and national order, national order and world peace. This is why those who can reach heaven and earth..."
Wen Suchen breathed a sigh of relief, and directly released his big killer.
Many people who came to cheer, applauded secretly. Mr. Wen is indeed a great Confucian, citing scriptures and classics, and he came out of his mouth.
Wang Shouren looked puzzled: "But... why didn't you figure out the principles of all things?"
"Let's put the bamboo aside first." Wen Suchen is not so boring, and has never tried bamboo, so, naturally, he can't do it on bamboo. ..."
"If you don't know the meaning of the bamboo, then what's the use of the bamboo? What's the use of the object?" Wang Shouren suddenly sounded like a bell, and shouted: "The knowledge cannot be extended by the investigation of things. How can ignorance be righteous? If the heart is not correct, how can you be sincere?" If the mind is not sincere, how to cultivate one's self, if one does not cultivate one's body, how to keep one's family in order, if one's family is not in order, how to govern a country, if the country is not well governed, the world will not be peaceful!"
Wen Suchen blushed.
This Wang Shouren...has a sharp tongue.
He is obviously young and has no hair on his mouth. His own son is older than him, so why is his mouth so sharp.
Wen Suchen took a deep breath: "Sophistry!" He scolded preemptively, and Wen Suchen also sternly said: "Can one deny the knowledge of things?"
