Chapter Seventy-Four: The Seeds of New Theory

Just when Liu Dingzhi tested Li Dongyang and wanted Li Dongyang to retake the path that Zhu Qizhen had cultivated him at the beginning, Liu Dingzhi's first official position was to raise horses in the northwest. Compared with Ninghua County in Wuyi Mountain, it is not much better.

And Cheng Minzheng is also being taught a lesson by his father.

Cheng Xin, the secretary of the military department, looked at his son and was a little helpless.

Cheng Xin sighed and said: "I have today, not because of how strong my ability is, but because I judge the situation and do what I can, I know what I can do and what I can't do, such as Han Yong, Bai Gui, Xiang Zhong, Wang Yu, can I really miss me?" In the end, I went to the position of the secretary of the military department, and they have all been trained in the place for many years, coming in the wind and going in the rain, but you, you are from the top three, what are you doing involved in these things? ”

"If one is not good, you don't have to go back to Beijing in this life."

Cheng Minzheng said: "Father, children and others are in the prime of life, when there is a great achievement, if you are cautious and miss the opportunity, I am afraid that you will not only disappoint yourself, but also disappoint the world." ”

Although many people have the same names in history, their personality and ideas are different from those in history.

Zhu Qizhen's struggle in the first 30 years and his victories against the outside world again and again made the temperament of the Ming Dynasty very different from history. In the style of writing, there seems to be more robustness of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

In the old bureaucrats, the embodiment is not too deep.

But among these younger generations of scholars, there are more revelations.

This is also why Zhu Qizhen's idea of changing the law is more echoed by young people, because these people have grown up from one victory to another victory in the Ming Dynasty.

When they were young, they heard about one great victory to another, the great victory of Montenegro, the great victory of Haixi Town, the great victory of Xingkai Lake, the great victory of Taizhou Station, the great victory of Dongshengwei, the great victory of Ganghwa Island, the great victory of the Yalu River, the great victory of Seoul, the great victory of Yanran, the great victory of Langshan, and the great victory of Beiting. And so on and so forth.

They naturally feel that it is inevitable to move from one victory to another.

Let the spirit of progress be better than the heart of success.

From this point of view, Zhu Qizhen's reform thinking is believed by many young scholars, not that Zhu Qizhen refined the fifth theory, but conforms to the hearts of this group of people.

And Cheng Minzheng is one of the representative people.

Cheng Xin said: "Let's go, you can do whatever you want, but take it easy, worry more about yourself, your father is only the secretary of the military department, not the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Cheng Xin had a feeling of grievance for a while.

Because of the change, Zhu Qizhen wanted to win over and stabilize the military, so between the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, Zhu Qizhen favored the Privy Council.

In the Privy Council, Yang Hong has long been out of business.

The one who is really in charge of the Privy Council is Wang Yue.

Wang Yue pressed Cheng Xin to death, making Cheng Xin always angry, but there was nothing he could do. Now that even his own son can't hold it down, Cheng Xin has a feeling of wanting to go.

At this time, Luo Lun was also visiting Wu and Bi.

Of course, it is Yu Qian when the Loren Seat Master speaks.

It's just that Yu Qian is no longer there, although he can't talk about people going to tea and cool, but Luo Lun can't borrow Yu Qian's power anymore. However, Loren's adherence to science naturally won the support of those who shared their views. and Luo Lun is also from Jiangxi, half of Jiangxi is full of dynasties, and he doesn't have to worry about being introduced by anyone.

Coupled with Luo Ren's champion title, he has the qualifications to participate in this pilot.

It's just that after deciding to leave Beijing, Luo Lun had a lot of confusion in his heart, but he didn't know who would answer.

He thought about it, so he came to ask Wu Youbi.

It's in a room in the Tianli newspaper office. Luo Lun saluted and said, "Master Wu, if the disciple has something unclear, please ask Master Wu to explain." ”

Wu Youbi said: "You can say it. ”

Luo Lun said: "Your Majesty, you intend to abolish Zhu Zi's Zhengxue and revitalize a new school, and practice the way of changing the law, the disciple is going to try a whip method, what should I do?" ”

Wu Youbi said: "Seek loyalty for the minister, seek filial piety for the son, what is the meaning of how to do it?" ”

Loren said: "This -------"

Wu Youbi may be a little naïve in politics, but he is very good at teaching his disciples, and he can see at a glance where Luo Lun's roots lie.

Luo Lun's root knot is that if he accomplishes this thing, he will contribute to Zhu Qizhen's abolition of Zhu Zizhengxue, but if he deliberately finds out the problem, it is against his original intention.

Wu Youbi said: "Your heart is too dusty, it has been polluted, the battle of truth, the righteousness is bright, the way of using power to scheming, can you win for a while, but you can win for a hundred years?" Can you deceive people for a lifetime, can you deceive people for a hundred years? ”

"And what does Your Majesty's way of changing the law have to do with Zhu Zizhengxue?"

"Zhu Zizhi's teaching, where is a whip law not allowed?"

Luo Lun didn't understand what was going on for a while?

Wu Youbi sighed and said: "These days, I have figured out His Majesty's intentions, but it is the study of Zhu Zi, the study of the inner sage, and the way of the outer king. That's what Your Majesty has to do. ”

"Otherwise, if you want to do something, you will talk about morality, how can you make a difference?"

"Even if Your Majesty abolishes Zhu Zi Zhengxue, it is not that Your Majesty has defeated Zhu Zi, but that Your Majesty has defeated us and so on."

Loren said, "Please sir, what should I do?" ”

Wu Youbi said: "I haven't been in officialdom, and I don't understand what to do inside, but I know what to do in academic battles." Li Si and Han Fei are all from Xunzi. Are these two Confucians? And Xunzi is a lawyer? ”

"Your Majesty wants to change the law, the ram family can change the law, but can't science?"

In political struggles, many times you live and die, and opposition to each other is not compatible at all, but ideologically, many times you say it is right, and you use it to become a part of me.

In particular, Confucianism and the original hundred schools of thought, Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism are integrated, all illustrate this point.

Wu Youbi has been thinking about how to explain Zhu Qizhen's law-changing behavior with science at the moment. A set of theories of law change based on the ideas of science has been formed.

This is the fickleness of Confucianism.

Luo Lun didn't understand at first, but after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly realized.

After all, those who can pass the top exam must not be fools. He immediately understood that in order to win back His Majesty's heart, he was not trying to find a way to fight against His Majesty, but to find a way to come up with a theory that replaced the Ram family's right to speak.

If there is a self-consistent theory of change in science. The emperor will definitely support the science of science.

The reason is very simple, the foundation of science is too strong, it has developed from generation to generation in the Tang Dynasty to the present, but the study of the ram was almost cut off during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

There is almost no Confucian who really specializes in ram studies.

Therefore, Luo Lun not only has to do this one thing, but also does this thing well, breaking the inherent impression in Zhu Qizhen's heart. Luo Lun saluted and said, "The disciple knows what to do. ”

Wu Youbi said: "The survival of sacred learning depends on my generation, Luo Sheng. ”

Loren said: "I will live up to Mr. Wang's expectations." ”

Loren then took his leave.

Wu and Bi sent Luo Lun away. Go back to your room and sit cross-legged for a moment to sort out your thoughts.

This is Wu and Bi's daily homework.

The Taoists of the Northern Song Dynasty introduced Buddhist meditation into Confucianism, and many physicists had the habit of meditating.

The conversation between Wu and Luo Lun is not the first time Wu and Bi have said this to others. Rather, he wanted to create the beginning of a new science.

He doesn't know how many times he has tried to do this.

Wu Youbi deeply felt one thing, that is, he was old.

People in their sixties have few days, and it is difficult to achieve any groundbreaking results. So what he can do is to inspire his disciples as much as possible and guide the younger generations.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of his disciple, Chen Xianzhang, who is now back in Baisha, Guangdong, but he didn't know that he had reached that point.

Although the master and apprentice often corresponded, after all, the distance was far away, and the communication in this era was not as good as that of later generations. A lot of the time, you can only miss it from afar.

At this moment, Chen Baisha didn't know that his teacher was missing him, he had already set up a academy in Baisha, Guangdong, which was the famous Baisha Academy, and was preparing a newspaper called Cantonese Newspaper.
