In the first year of Jiajing, a lot of things happened in the Ming Dynasty.

For example, outside the capital, Li Dongyang was deprived of all mourning, and the Li family was also expelled to Yunnan, where the wealthy family was in decline and desolate.

It's not just that the white land is really clean, it's just a chicken feather...... The decline of a family will not end so simply. The people they oppressed, the former enemies, the slaves who clinged to them, everyone was trying their best to perform, taking the opportunity to denounce, devouring the master, and stealing property, in the final analysis, there are only four words: the world is hot and cold!

On the other side, an old minister also passed away, that is, the father of Yang Minggong, Wang Huawang.

The old man is very strong, he wants to survive the winter, at least follow his son and spend the New Year together...... However, the old man's body was too weak, and after several successive cooldowns a few years ago, the Qiantang River even snowed, and the old man did not achieve his goal and left in a hurry.

Hearing that Wang Hua died, the entire southeast was shocked, and there was an endless stream of people who hurried to mourn. Some people are friends of Wang Hua, but more of them are Xinxue's disciples, of course, including many snobs who are attracted by Yangming's prestige and want to take advantage of the opportunity.

But no matter what, being able to come with so many people, together with the decline of the Li family, seems to tell everyone...... Times are different.

Wang Yangming is not only a civil and military all-rounder, but also a Confucian in the world, a spiritual ancestor, coupled with the identity of the favored minister of the Son of Heaven, all kinds of halos add to his status, making his status extraordinary.

The prime minister who seems to be in the opposition, if he can get a word of praise from Yang Minggong, he will immediately become famous all over the world and soar, so many people regard this as a shortcut to the south.

"I won't go to the capital again."

This is Yang Minggong's declaration to his disciples, which makes everyone unexpected......

"Sir, your old man is in his prime, although the old man is gone, but you can't be depressed, let alone ignore the common people!"

Facing the eagerness of the disciples, Yang Minggong smiled slightly, "I don't have that much ability, the world is alive, these four words fall on everyone." The imperial court wants to clear the acres of land, and this knife is cut on the head of the scholar, and you and I are also among them! ”

Yang Minggong laughed and said, "Can you tell me, if the imperial court is clear, what will you do?" Wang Yangming looked at the disciples with a smile, and then pointed to his heart.

"I want to hear the truth."

These royal disciples looked at each other, how could they lie in the face of Yang Minggong's penetrating gaze...... Some lowered their heads in shame, others couldn't help but clench their fists.

"The disciple is ashamed that he failed to know the true meaning of the heart, and he still asks the master for guidance?"

Yang Minggong smiled dumbly, "What can Master instruct you?" This is the nature of human beings! Born like this, who can defy the sky? ”

"When the teacher was in Beijing, he met a small friend, and from him, the teacher thought that the mind learning may not be perfect, and he should make up another knowledge."

"What is it?"

"Utilitarian!"

Yang Minggong smiled and said two words that amazed the doorman...... Is this crazy, sir? For thousands of years, apart from Yang Zhu, who else dares to openly promote utilitarianism? Is it possible to learn and educate people and turn people into villains chasing fame and fortune? Is this still the science of the mind that they believe in?

"You may be puzzled, as long as you think clearly about why you replace preferential treatment with allowances, some people can agree with it and some people will oppose it...... If it is just Qingzhang, the world will be turbulent, and no one agrees. ”

"If you want to succeed, can you do it without practicing the word utilitarianism?"

……

Perhaps even Wang Yue could not have imagined that Yang Ming Gong had completely changed the direction of the study of the mind in his later years, one-sidedly emphasizing the role of the mind, and the study of the mind would inevitably be the "all idealistic creation" of the teachings, which was very different from the real Confucianism of joining the WTO.

As the ancestor master, if he can't completely correct the shortcomings of Xinxue and turn the tide, then the future generations of disciples and grandchildren will inevitably deviate more and more from the original intention of Xinxue.

As early as when Yang Ming Gong was in the capital, he had already thought about it, and when he returned to the south this time, he was dedicated to lecturing, cultivating talents, and strengthening the faction of law change from the source.

He is already old, and it is time to leave the place and opportunity to the young.

Although it is good to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, it is not Wang's wish.

I just watched from Jiangnan, looking at those young people, how many surprises could they bring to themselves......

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's cold and the road is slippery, you must be careful, don't slip your feet." Wang Yue patiently reminded that the nobles who followed him, especially the three great princes, glared angrily.

On a cold day, the surname Wang is fundamentally a toss.

Wang Yue ignored their grievances, but smiled and said: "Look, the mountains are all over the field, the snow is white, and there are footprints on the snow, what a beautiful scenery!" ”

The faces of these people are even darker, only the wind, the biting wind, where is the light, don't you talk about it?

At this moment, the old British prince Zhang Lun had a dark face and panted and said: "Lord Wang, the New Year is approaching, we are all big families, busy with affairs, just climb for a while, there is something to say, we have nothing to do, we have to go back!" ”

As he spoke, he stopped.

Seeing that someone was taking the lead, the other nobles also stopped and glared at Wang Yue angrily.

Wang Yue looked at Zhang Lun and said with a smile: "I heard that the first generation of British Duke is General Zhang Fu Zhang...... At that time, he led the troops to pacify Annan, went deep into the scorching heat, pacified the thieves, and worked tirelessly. You are ......"

Zhang Lun snorted: "I am his old man's grandson!" ”

Wang Yue smiled: "In this way, the grandson is far inferior to the grandfather!" ”

"Wang Yue!" Zhang Lun shouted angrily: "The old man's family affairs, how can you talk about it casually as a junior!" The old man told you, don't think that you can do whatever you want by relying on the favor of the Son of Heaven. Don't take us people seriously. We are hereditary titles, and we are retired with the country, how can we compare with the descendants of yours in their later years? ”

"That's right! Our ancestors made great achievements in the Ming Dynasty and opened the country, born and died, without us, how could there be today's Ming Dynasty? If you dare to bully the nobles at will, you are underestimating the Ming Dynasty! ”

Dozens of people accused Wang Yue one after another and scolded loudly.

Especially Zhu Fu, the Duke of Chengguo, gasped for breath, shook his fat body, his voice stammered slightly, and reproached: "Wang Yue, you can point to the old man, but with you, you can't point fingers yet...... Dot! ”

"That's right! What are you, dare to point fingers at us! ”

The corners of Wang Yue's mouth turned up, and he smiled slightly, "That's a good point, since you don't want to be pointed at, then you can open your eyes, take a good look, and see who swept the road under your feet!" ”

These people were stunned for a while, and Xu Guangzuo, the Duke of Dingguo, saw it first, just halfway up the mountain, on the viewing platform, there was a large group of people squatting, and each of them gave a nest head.

Cool as ice, hard as stone.

But in the hands of these people, it became a treasure, and they were cautious and ate it in large gulps, as if they were some delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Xu Yande's eyes were sharp, and he saw several people with bare heads!

It's a monk!

These nobles didn't care about fatigue, strode meteors, walked dozens of steps, and rushed over.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, a bald head looked at it, and quickly lowered his head, his body retreated, trying to hide in the crowd. But the question is, where is he hiding in plain sight?

Isn't this Master Seng Hui?

British Gong Zhang Lun ran over in a few steps, looking at it stupidly, last year, this person also went to their house to teach the Fa, especially Zhang Lun's grandson, who was still the name given by this one.

"Master, you, how did you get to this point?"

Seng Hui raised her head helplessly and smiled bitterly at Zhang Lun, "It turned out to be Grandpa Guo, the little monk is polite, the little monk still has something to do, please take care of Grandpa Guo." ”

As he spoke, Seng Hui buried his head deeply, not daring to say a word more, and the other monks stood up one after another, and replaced the broom with a shovel and pickaxe and an iron chisel.

Cui Shilin carried a cowhide whip and shouted at them: "Hurry up, let me mine...... If you don't dig enough 500 catties per person, you will be hungry at night! ”

The monks hurriedly trotted forward, for fear of falling behind.

Zhang Lun looked stupid. This is not only the wisdom of the monks, but also the strictness of the law and the wisdom of the precepts...... There were also several people, all of whom were famous monks, who went in and out of the prince's mansion, and who did not treat them as guests.

"Cui Shilin! You, how dare you? ”

Cui Shilin rolled his eyelids, spread his hands and said, "What can I do, this is all the labor sent by the Queen Mother." ”

"The Queen Mother? How so? The Queen Mother is merciful, how could she do such a thing? You, you are blaspheming the name of the Queen Mother! Zhang Lun was anxious.

At this time, Wang Yue walked over with a smile, hugged his shoulders and said: "There is only labor here, there are no high-ranking monks and masters, and there are no hereditary nobles!" ”
