Chapter 1362: Gewu Zhizhi Takes Root
Whether it is applied to the world or learned from things, it has actually existed in Confucian culture for a long time, and some people have long discussed and advocated and implemented it.
However, as a school motto, it was advocated and implemented in teaching, and this Yuelu Academy was the first and second to none at that time.
As far as the knowledge of things is concerned, after all, there are more pure theoretical contents and practices, but the application of the world is different.
The application of the world is essentially the use of things to manage the world they face, that is, everything in time!
Whatever they want to do, they need to operate!
The so-called management is to use the understanding of the world to guide the operation of various affairs in the world.
Whether it can be run successfully or not depends to a large extent on whether it is done in accordance with the law, and if it is not in accordance with the law, it will naturally fail.
However, there is an implicit premise here that the rules they follow are correct.
And where does this correct rule come from, it is the result of the knowledge of things.
However, who can guarantee that the result of learning from objects is correct?
No one!
It's not even known if this result is correct.
Therefore, it is an indispensable way to test the results of the knowledge of the world.
In other words, in order to ensure the correctness of the knowledge of things, it must be strictly tested by the world.
Thus, these two seemingly unrelated principles, which are also regarded as unrelated principles on most occasions, are in fact inseparable!
Further analysis shows that the two rely on each other and provide services to each other!
Without the need and purpose of applying it to the world, the knowledge of things loses its meaning.
If you just go to the grid for the sake of your own knowledge, then this principle becomes a little pet for the person concerned. No one cares about its success or failure, and it has no impact on society.
Therefore, the knowledge of things must be used by the society, that is, it must be used by the world.
And if there is no guidance from the results of the knowledge of things, it will become a blind man walking without a goal. Don't know how to walk.
Behavior without a goal is simply inferior to an animal.
All the actions of animals are also inseparable from the drive of natural nature.
Human behavior has no clear and appropriate goal, and is even detached from the constraints of natural nature.
Even the rebellious peasants have found some reason for their rebellion, not to mention the more sensible people, not to mention the most sensible literati!
Hence the every move of these people. It must be bound by the results of understanding in the process of learning from things.
To put it bluntly, the application of the world must be followed by the knowledge of the object, and of course, in practice, this is an infinite cycle of process.
Because of this relationship, the two provide each other with the foundation of existence, and also provide each other with inexhaustible vitality!
In terms of the specific implementation of the world, Ding Shanqing and Zeng Guofan support each other and complement each other!
For Zeng Guofan, governing the country. It is the greatest application of the world! It is the most challenging application of the world! It is also the most sensitive application of the world!
If you do this well, you can be promoted to an official position and make a fortune, but if you do not do it well, you can get promoted. It will be bankrupt, and even the head will fall to the ground!
For Zeng Guofan, his life is how to be an official!
Therefore, he relied on the knowledge of things to a greater extent than anyone else!
And Ding Shanqing, although he has also been an official related to conventional intellectuals, is basically a purely academic talent. Therefore, he can achieve achievements in the knowledge of things, that is, to reach a height that no one has reached before!
These results, of course, he was willing to provide them to Zeng Guofan.
One of his purposes was to let him experiment in officialdom or on other occasions.
Tested for the right thing. He is relieved to teach.
Many things are not immediately effective, so those things have become the special achievements of Zeng Guofan.
Although Zeng Guofan has been in officialdom all his life, his most important career experience is the military!
The rise of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom made him devote his pen to Rong and become a military commander!
Whether he wants to or not, he must take this step!
If you don't take this step, there is only one ending, that is, you will perish with the Manchu court!
He was one of the many Han intellectuals who accompanied the funeral.
It doesn't matter if the Manchu Qing perishes, but let him be buried with him, how can he be willing!
So, he became a military commander.
For him, life is at stake!
This is a completely new field for him to be used in the world!
So there was Ding Shanqing's "Zuo's Soldiers".
It is said that this book of war was later lost.
Looking at the relationship between Ding Shanqing and Zeng Guofan, it is understandable that it is lost.
Because Ding Shanqing's summary of the knowledge of Gewu is prepared for Zeng Guofan's military application!
Maybe it's useless, maybe it's a priceless treasure, no one knows.
However, Zeng Guofan was the final victor in military affairs in history, and whether there is credit to "Zuo's Treatise on Soldiers" can only be speculated by interested people.
The practical application of political and military personnel prompted Ding Shanqing to strengthen the research and connection between the two in terms of knowledge and daily teaching, so he was very busy.
However, both he and Zeng Guofan knew that they were on the right track!
Only with enough time will they establish a solid foundation in this regard, establish a solid order, and continue to work on this subject of vital academic and governance issues.
But is there really such a chance?
Today, Zeng Guofan suddenly came over and told Ding Shanqing a piece of news - Emperor Xianfeng Xuan fled here!
This meant that militarily the Manchus were defeated!
The rule of the Manchus has died in name only!
Its nominal disappearance has also entered the countdown!
At this time, Zeng Guofan and his eagerness to know what should be done to save the Manchu Qing from the demise of the Qing Dynasty.
Zeng Guofan knew very well that he could personally escape in a hundred ways, but once the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell, his political and military efforts and future ambitions were all gone.
The two of them had a very in-depth and heart-to-heart conversation, and it was determined that although there is a lot of crisis at the moment, there is still something that can be done!
Their practical guidelines are roughly as follows.
The first one is used by all the heroes, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes!
Since Xianfeng is here, there is no reason not to make good use of it!
Although most of the princes of the world have returned to Heaven, there are always some remnants who still hold out hope, and they should be able to come to help!
Second, many of the remnants of the defeated soldiers who participated in the decisive battle of the two rivers and the decisive battle of the Jianghan Plain fled here, and many of them are on the way, although the morale of these people has been hit badly, but they are the essence of the army, and if they are used well, they will be the elite of the elite!
Third......
McKee's nasty voice came in!.
