Wang Yuan personally supervised his sons' archery practice, and asked casually, "Can you find out?" ”

Zhang Mu stepped forward and arched his hand: "I found out, it is the daughter of Luo Shilang's second son, and the name of the girl has not been heard for the time being." ”

"Mr. Joan?" Wang Yuan confirmed.

Zhang Mu said: "It's him." ”

Wang Yuan's expression was a little strange, his son actually fell in love with Luo Qinshun's granddaughter.

Luo Qinshun, the word Yunshen, the number of the whole hermitage, Hongzhi six years of flowers, the current right servant of the ministry.

This person did not belong to any faction, and after the death of Zhengde in history, he was squeezed out of Nanjing. Sun Jiao recalled him back to Beijing and asked Luo Qinshun to be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, this position was the center of the whirlpool of political struggle, he refused to go to the post at first, and soon received bad news from home, and quickly ran back to his hometown Ding Wei. After Ding Wei ended, the imperial court summoned him to serve as the secretary of the ministry, but Luo Qinshun still did not accept it, because he hated Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao.

You say that he is an officialdom bastard, Luo Qinshun can be conscientious and conscientious, and he does the work in hand very well, but he doesn't want to meddle in matters or get involved in political struggles.

Why did Wang Yuan have a strange expression when he heard Luo Qinshun's name?

Because Luo Qinshun is a great Confucian in Jiangyou, he is the only university scholar who can compete with Wang Yangming academically after the rise of psychology!

Moreover, Luo Qinshun is opposed to the study of the mind.

However, Luo Qinshun's opposition is very rational, and he has been in private correspondence with Wang Yangming for ten years. Don't talk about politics, only reason, pure academic arguments, and no one can convince the other.

……

Luo Qinshun is not greedy, at least he himself is not greedy. He was born in a family of eunuchs, and since he was a child, he has no worries about food and clothing, and he is not interested in pleasure or sociability, and only devotes himself to studying.

During the Lantern Festival holiday, Luo Qinshun also locked himself in his study, carefully studied the Confucian classics, and wanted to refute Wang Yangming in the next letter.

As for the disciples who are stumbling in the capital, what kind of husband is a husband, what Zou Shouyi, Luo Qinshun is too lazy to deal with. He can easily refute these juniors, but it is not a martial victory to bully the small, and only by refuting Wang Yangming can it be regarded as a real academic victory.

"Master, Wang Shangshu pleases!" The servant knocked at the door outside.

Luo Qin flipped through the book with a magnifying glass in his hand, and asked casually, "Which Wang Shangshu?" ”

The servant replied, "The king of the Ministry of Rites." ”

Only then did Luo Qinshun raise his head and wondered: "Why did he Wang Erlang come to look for me?" ”

The servant asked, "Master, how do you respond?" ”

Luo Qinshun said: "Ask him when he is free, and the old man will greet him at any time." ”

It is impossible for a person of status to come to the door in person to pay his respects when the relationship is not close.

For example, this time, Wang Yuan asked the servants to submit a post and make an appointment with Luo Qinshun. The host can prepare it, and the guests will not eat the closed door, which will save face for both parties.

The next day, Wang Yuan arrived as promised, and Luo Qinshun prepared wine and food.

"Mr. Joan, take the liberty of disturbing me!" Wang Yuan bowed his hand.

Luo Qinshun smiled back: "Wang Shangshu is here, making the humble house shine, please come in quickly." ”

Wang Yuan said: "Today's private visit, regardless of official position, just the elderly, Mr. Quan'an is the senior. ”

"Wang Shangshu is polite." Luo Qinshun still kept his distance, because he had no bottom in his heart, and Wang Yuan behaved too respectfully.

Personally led Wang Yuan in, set up the fruits and tea, Luo Qinshun asked: "I don't know what Wang Shangshu deigned to visit?" ”

Wang Yuan saw that the other party was straight to the point, and he was also happy to get straight to the point: "I have one word, I am sixteen years old, and I am at the right age for marriage." I heard that the daughter-in-law of your mansion is gentle and virtuous, and her appearance is dignified, so it is better for the two families to marry Qin and Jin, so I took the liberty to visit. ”

Luo Qinshun was noncommittal, and said in Tai Chi: "Why do you need Wang Shangshu to come to the door in person and send a matchmaker for this matter." ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "If you only send one matchmaker, I'm afraid that your mansion will be directly bombarded." ”

"Not really." Luo Qin waved his hand.

Wang Yuan didn't bother to rap, and said straight: "As for it." First, Mr. Quan'an is a master of Qi Studies, and I am a disciple of Mind Studies; Second, I was a little unhappy with Yang Gelao, and Mr. Quan'an never asked about the court disputes; Thirdly, Mr. Quan'an is a noble man with a noble reputation and a clear reputation, and he will definitely not cling to me, a powerful person. If I hadn't visited in person, there would have been no follow-up to this marriage, and Mr. Quan'an would have been able to turn it off if he only said that his granddaughter was already married. ”

"Uh......" Luo Qinshun was speechless, because what he wanted to say had already been finished by Wang Yuan.

This old gentleman is a contemporary master of qi science, and he has fought with Wang Yangming for ten years without falling behind. But he is really not good at sociability, and he is not good at verbal confrontation, if he throws him a pen, he can scold Wang Yuan to the blood.

Wang Yuan didn't bully the old man either, he immediately smiled and revealed, and changed the topic: "Mr. Su Wen Quan'an is proficient in qi and blood, I don't know if I can teach you a lesson or two?" ”

This returned to Luo Qinshun's professional field, and he smiled: "Don't dare to teach, it's just a family's words, and you can learn from each other." ”

Wang Yuan asked: "Is Zhu Zi's words perfect, and can not change a word?" ”

Luo Qinshun said ambiguously: "Zhu Zi is also a human. ”

Wang Yuan said: "But Zhu Zi is a saint. ”

Luo Qinshun said: "Zhu Zi has never said that he is a saint. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "That means that Zhu Zi may also make mistakes?" ”

Luo Qinshun could only nod: "Indeed." ”

Wang Yuan asked, "Mr. Quan'an thinks, where is Zhu Zi wrong?" ”

Luo Qinshun said: "It's not that Zhuzi must be wrong, it's just that there are some controversies." Zhu Zi divides the rational qi into two, but he thinks that the rational qi is originally one thing, and it cannot be arbitrarily divided. Through the heavens and the earth, ancient and modern, it is nothing more than a breath of air. There are many things in the world, and I don't know why they are, which is the so-called reason. ”

"This is a wonderful statement, and it is no different from my school of physics." Wang Yuan clapped his hands and laughed.

Zhu Xi believes that reason is illusory and metaphysical; Qi is tangible, metaphysical. Reason exists before all things, and it also exists before qi, and reason gives birth to qi and exists in qi, which in turn evolves into all things in the world.

Luo Qinshun believes that qi is everything, and qi gives birth to the universe and all things. Because there are more and more things that evolve from qi, which seem to be complicated, it is difficult for people to understand and elaborate, so they summarize some laws that are called "li", and li is just the external embodiment of qi.

Luo Qinshun's theory can be completely covered with a scientific coat, qi is energy, giving birth to the universe and all things, and reason is the scientific law discovered by people.

Luo Qinshun did not study the school of physics, but only regarded it as a branch of psychology. He wondered: "The school of physics also believes that qi and reason are one, and qi is fundamental?" ”

"Yes, yes." Wang Yuan said with a smile.

In fact, the existing theories of the school of physics only emphasize the unity of qi and reason, and ignore who is first and who is second, who is the master and who is the guest, which can be regarded as shelving the academic debate of qi theory.

Luo Qinshun immediately sat up straight, arched his hand and said, "Please give me advice." ”

Wang Yuan elaborated: "First of all, the school of physics pays attention to the unity of qi and reason. Qi is real, reason is virtual. The study of physics is to seek reason; The physical application is to seek qi. We continue to observe, experiment, think, summarize and discover more and more principles, and then turn the known principles into practical ones. Take the steam engine, for example, it is a search for luck. We first discovered the principles of mechanical motion, the principle of levers, the density of objects, and so on, and then combined these 'principles' to form a new 'qi'. The steam engine is the creation of air and reason. ”

"I see," Luo Qinshun thought for a moment, and then wondered, "You are studying the mind?" How can it not be related to the study of the heart? ”

Wang Yuan said nonsense: "Princess Yangming Zhang Zhixing is one, knowledge is reasonable, and behavior is angry. Only research experiments without application are reasonable; It is unreasonable to only use it without studying experiments. Just like the steam engine, we must first study and explore, summarize many principles, and then build a steam engine and use it, so that it can be regarded as the unity of gas and reason, that is, the unity of knowledge and action. ”

"Hahaha!"

Luo Qin stroked his beard and laughed, and then said: "Raw, far-fetched, nonsense!" You and your teacher are not all the way at all, and your knowledge is a bit like that of an old man. ”

Wang Yuan said: "I agree with both Mr. Quan'an and Yang Minggong, why can't we unify it?" ”

Luo Qin said: "I talk about qi, he talks about the heart, how to unify?" ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Zhu Zi's qi is divided, and Mr. Quan'an's qi is mixed, which is also fundamentally different, why didn't Mr. Quan'an break with Zhu Zi's knowledge?" Gentlemen are harmonious but different, and learning can also be harmonious and different. ”

Luo Qinshun was silent, he was a master of qi science, and he obeyed Zhu Xi on the surface, but in fact, the degree of betrayal of Zhu Xi was more serious than that of Wang Yangming, and he directly cut the root of Zhu Xi's theory.

Wang Yuan said again: "I have the courage to invite Mr. Quan'an to the School of Physics." ”

Luo Qinshun didn't refuse, nodded and said, "Then let's take a look." ”

The physics school lacked a real Confucian, the theory was actually very rough, and the core academic debates were all shelved. If you can pull the Qi Sect Master in, you will completely improve the theoretical system, but this old gentleman has been fighting with Wang Yangming for ten years without falling behind.

As for the son's marriage, as long as Luo Qinshun joins the physics school, it is natural for the two families to get married.
