The influence of Gewu on the Great Song Dynasty can be described as unprecedented, since ancient times, there is no kind of learning on the world as great as Gewu, and now the Great Song Dynasty has been completely inseparable from Gewu, and even some people denigrate the way of Gewu is a bad etiquette, while enjoying the convenience brought by Gewu.

Zhao Zhen is extremely shameful for this kind of person, but the Great Song Dynasty is an era of freedom of speech, Zhao Zhen can't open the mouth of the crime of words, let alone punish the critics because of the object, which will make people feel that they are retaliating, and the emperor is narrow.

So Zhao Zhen can only let everyone understand what is the way of Gewu and what Gewuxue is. The sages had already pointed out the way to Zhao Zhen, "If you don't teach and punish, you will be punished and the evil will be invincible; If you teach but do not punish, the traitors will not be punished. ”

Since it is not right to punish without teaching, Zhao Zhen taught the world, and then slowly cleaned up the opposing voices, in Zhao Zhen's view, opposing Gewu is anti-intellectual, since Gewu can bring convenience to people and bring social progress, then why resist Gewu?

Obviously, this is because some people are worried that they are outdated and can't keep up with the impact of Gewu on reality, and the person in his stomach can't explain the way of Gewu, or even worse than Gewu, which is what frightens them the most. In order to keep the "knowledge" in their stomachs useful and not to be eliminated, they labeled the objects as strange and ingenious.

Zhao Zhen is very ashamed of this, because these people are often the so-called great Confucians, and even the so-called great monks are also involved, Zhao Zhen has been suppressing Buddhism for so many years, but there are still many great monks and great virtues, claiming that the more the court suppresses Buddhism, the more strong Buddhism will be.

And these eminent monks and great virtues basically can't find a foothold in the people, because the people don't have time to worship the Buddha, everyone has to be busy with work, once people become fuller, income becomes higher at the same time, the quality of life improves, who has nothing to ask God to worship Buddha?

In the homes of the people, the most worshiped shrines are not the shrines of the Buddha, but the immortal tablets of the Great Song Emperor Zhao Zhen......

Since they can't find a foothold among the people, they stretch their hands and feet into the homes of those who don't like Gewu, so some eminent monks often go back and forth to the homes of the great Confucians, which is forming a way to huddle together for warmth, and resist the policies of the imperial court.

But I have to say that this strategy is very good, they quickly united some people who "should be united" to form interest groups, and constantly bewitched the eunuch's family, or the eunuch was bewitched, or felt that their Zen machine made sense, or the female dependents in the family were bewitched.

Therefore, many scholars and officials are often the most easily deceived, because they feel that what they learn is the opposite of Gewu, and Gewu is something that destroys etiquette.

Zhao Zhen is now in urgent need of a proficient and enlightened person in the way of Gewu to preside over the repair of the Gewu classics, and at present it seems that Zeng Gongliang is the best choice, he and Ding Du will be the supervisor for so long, and the accumulated knowledge of Gewu must be a lot, as literati, they are good at summarizing and summarizing, and it is best for them to compile books on the study of Gewu.

February next year is the first year to include Gewu in Jinshike, and before that, it is necessary to promote the relevant knowledge of Gewu, otherwise there will be some meaning of punishment without teaching.

Zhao Zhen issued an edict to give Zeng Gongliang and Ding Du the right to compile Gewu books, so that they could print out the knowledge of Gewu as quickly as possible, and promulgate it to the world, of course, because it was the first year, and they were in a hurry, so let the two search for easy-to-understand Gewu, which was temporarily used in next year's imperial examination.

It doesn't matter how high the quality is, it doesn't matter how much knowledge there is, Zhao Zhen only needs these Gewu knowledge to build momentum, so that Gewu can have an impact on the imperial examination, so that before the next imperial examination, the juzi will definitely learn Gewu knowledge by himself or apprentice.

Those who oppose Gewu are constantly eroding officials, and Zhao Zhen's practice is to change the overall situation, constantly adding fresh blood to Gewu's cognition, once people understand more, they will naturally be suspicious of some things.

Belief is very important, Zhao Zhen will not destroy the belief of thousands of years in China, the same, Confucianism is actually not in conflict with Gewu, if you fully understand Confucianism, but it is inseparable from Gewu.

"The Book of Rites: University" has eight eyes - righteousness, sincerity, objectivity, enlightenment, self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world!

It can be seen that Gewu occupies an important position in Confucianism, and the reason why some people resist Gewu is because they simply do not know it, or their thinking is outdated and they do not want to learn new knowledge.

Secondly, the blame cannot be placed entirely on them, because in Confucianism, there is no explanation of Gewu Zhizhi in the subset of classics and histories, and even in the text of the "University", there is only one paragraph mentioning the four words "Gewu Zhizhi", but no explanation is given afterwards......

Nor did any of the pre-Qin ancient books use the terms "Gewu" and "Zhizhi" for reference, so the true meaning of "Gewu Zhizhi" has become a difficult mystery in Confucianism.

Zhao Zhen once doubted that although the sages knew about Gewu, they had no method, like two children arguing about the sun, he couldn't explain this phenomenon, so he admired Gewu Zhizhi, in order to let future generations study the answer themselves.

The power of Gewu is powerful, he can even change the rise and fall of a dynasty, in Zhao Zhen's view, Gewu brought new vitality to the Great Song Dynasty, the rise of factories, the emergence of trains, all of which have improved and enhanced the lives of the people.

What's even more frightening is that Gewu put a layer of powerful weapons on the army of the Great Song Dynasty, with excellent armor, sharp blades, and powerful gunpowder, which one is not the credit of Gewu?

Don't say it's Zhao Zhen, even the courtiers can see it clearly, otherwise Yang Guoan would not ask for Gewu to be added to the imperial examination, Zhao Zhen repeatedly looked at the music in his hand, and Yang Guoan's intentions could be seen between the lines, obviously he supported Gewu more than most people in the court.

In the eyes of others, Gewu is a tool and a tool to make the Great Song Dynasty progress, but in the eyes of Yang Guoan, Gewu is a kind of Tao, a branch of the Great Dao, and learning Gewu will eventually make people close to the original existence.

Zhao Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up, that's right! Isn't it to deduce the principles of things and thus gain knowledge? Isn't this the best explanation of Confucianism?

What I have to do now is how to combine the way of learning things with Confucianism, improve Confucianism, and enrich Confucianism!

In the same way, he has one of the greatest conveniences, he is the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, in this era of centralization at the pinnacle, the emperor's words are Chrysostom, the emperor's words are the export of Chengxian, and the emperor's knowledge is naturally the avenue......
