Chapter One Thousand One Hundred and Three I Like to Be an Official

This is no longer the case.

Xu Fuyuan and Zhou Rudeng successively gave lectures at the altar of Lingji Palace, and the apprentices gathered, and the scale was even better than that year.

Many Confucians can be proud to lecture in the Lingji Palace, in the past, the main lectures in the Lingji Palace were all science, and the heart of the Confucian, but now there are some flowers blooming.

A few days ago, Yang Qiyuan gave a lecture at Lingji Palace. This Yang Qiyuan is a five-year jinshi of Wanli, studied under Luo Rufang, and realized the sect of life, but he is not a Wang Xuemen, but can talk about various miscellaneous theories.

When he gave lectures, it was a grand occasion, and there were nearly 1,000 people.

However, Yang Qiyuan's meeting was not as good as today, there were as many as 2,000 people in this meeting today, and many people who read could not hear it, so they could only sit far away.

Lin Yanchao wore regular clothes and came to the shed built by the grass house, no one knew his identity, as for Xu Huobo, Yuan Keli also came here with Lin Yanchao to observe.

The three of them waited for a while, and then saw an ox cart slowly coming, and Tao Wangling was standing on the ox cart.

This ox cart ride is also a legacy of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and it is also the rule of Lingji Palace's lectures, and Tao Wangling is wearing a wide robe and big sleeves, and when the ox cart stops for a while, he jumps up and down, and takes three or two steps to the pulpit.

Tao Wangling's move seems to be a bit slow for the ox cart, which is quite different from the calmness of Confucianism.

There was a buzz from all sides, and Lin Yanchao thought that the lifters would be surprised by his youth, or that he was not an official, but in fact, no one had any objections.

Tao Wangling ascended the podium, and after glancing at it, he first waved it in all directions and said: "You are polite, I will check Tao Wangling in the next meeting, I have always learned a little from Confucianism, and I will come today." In today's world, there are many schools, many people tend to be popular, today the study of the mind is prevalent, then go to learn the mind, he is prevalent in the day, so he goes to learn the science together, and one day someone talks about the mysteries, and changes it to one, there is no fixed view in the heart, only to go with the flow. ”

Tao Wangling's words sounded quite a lot to Lin Yanchao, and if he said it too much, it was easy to offend people. But that's the way the lecture is, your words are not sharp, not moving enough, and if you don't throw out your point at the beginning, many people leave without interest.

Especially the lectures in Lingji Palace, there are many people here, the level is very high, they have been cold for many years, they have real talent and real learning, they can't allow you to tell the story, one is to go to dry goods.

Tao Wangling said: "Not to mention others, there are eight schools of Confucianism, some people say that I learn from the heart, and there are seven schools of mind, the big one is divided into two branches, one is the ontology, the ontology is important, the other is the kung fu, and the kung fu is important." ”

Many of the people present are from the north and south of the country, among which there are many people who read Yingtian, and they already know the general knowledge of what Tao Wangling and Jiao Hong said when they discussed the Tao from the ontology to the kung fu, and then from the kung fu to the ontology.

"Now the ontology of Wang Xue is quite prosperous, but the kung fu has really fallen into the inferior, and the ontology does not worship speculation, and it is no longer the authentic Confucianism."

Tao Wangling's words together, all the scholars were shocked, and these words knocked down all the Wang Yi faction in Wang Xue.

Many people wanted to get up and debate, but several scholars from the south pulled each other's sleeves and sat down and said, "Listen to it!" ”

Seeing the commotion of the scholars below, Tao Wangling said again: "As for the kung fu school, it worships kung fu and dethrones the ontology, which seems to be the study of the mind rather than the study of the mind. ”

Well, the crowd calmed down.

Xu Huobo said: "Teacher, Zhou Wang's words are equivalent to expelling both Wang and Xue's factions from the Confucian gate, if he can't prove his words today, then the world's scholars will attack my Lin Xue." ”

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "Mr. Yangming said back then, Mr. Jinxi (Wang Ji) and Mr. Xushan (Qian Dehong) can complement each other, but he didn't say how to complement each other, and today you can just listen to Zhou Wang." ”

But see Tao Wangling said: "Tao inherited the teaching of Mr. Xuegong, only listened to Mr. Kung Fu, but did not see Mr. said the ontology, Mr. did not answer back then, Tao felt that there was a sense of King Wen Wangdao but did not see it." ”

Tao said here today, kung fu and ontology complement each other, when Yan Tan asked the difficulty, Mr. Yang Ming pointed out that from the ontology to kung fu, the heart is the reality, and the unintentional place is the virtual phase. From kung fu to the ontology, the unintentional place is the reality. From kung fu to the ontology, the unintentional place is the reality, and the intentional place is the illusion. ”

"I once gave an example, if a person sleeps, it is kung fu to lie in bed with his eyes closed, but is it sleep to lie in bed with his eyes closed? Actually, no, you need to be free of distractions to fall asleep. The more you fall asleep, the more you can't sleep, but you fall asleep without intention, which is from kung fu to the ontology, where there is no mind, there is reality, and where there is a mind, there is a void. ”

When these words were in Nanjing, all the scholars had already heard them, and now that Tao Wangling said them again, many people still had a lot of understanding.

As for those who listen for the first time, it is even more enlightened.

"So many people get it wrong about unintentionality and kung fu, and this is the case with the study of Jinxi, which is like telling everyone to fall asleep when they stand with their eyes open."

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

"It is true that the depth of kung fu, that is, the extreme tiredness, can fall asleep standing with open eyes, but for ordinary people, it is too difficult. Therefore, Mr. Yang Ming said that those who are not good are not enough to learn. ”

"But what's wrong with Oyama's learning? It's like telling people to sleep, as long as they close their eyes, be delicate in the bed, be comfortable in the bed, and don't hear any noise around them. ”

Everyone laughed again, and after laughing, they all thought, isn't that exactly the case?

Qian Dehong said to Wang Yangming that there was no good or evil in the mind and body, but now he has been used to it for a long time, and he feels that there is good and evil in the heart and body, and it is the kung fu of the body to eliminate evil for the sake of good.

In other words, the mind and body are the nature of destiny, and there is no good or evil in the first place. But there is good and evil in the thoughts of what people hear and see. Learning, knowledge, sincerity, righteousness, and self-cultivation are precisely the efforts to restore the essence of human nature.

This is what Qian Dehong understands as 'to conscience'.

Qian Dehong asked Wang Yangming about this sentence, Wang Yangming said a lot of words, and Qian Dehong heard it in a fog.

Wang Yangming said that the ontology of conscience is originally not a substance, but is attached to the entity. It is like the existence of the void, but it does not see its form. In the void, the sun, moon and stars, wind and rain, dew and thunder, haze and hunger, what is not? But what is there enough to clog the void? And the same is true of the ontology of the human heart. It is too void to see its form, but the human heart can perceive its existence for a moment, without the slightest effort.

Tao Wangling continued: "In fact, Mr. Xushan's way of reaching conscience through the kung fu of Gewu is really chasing things, you have kung fu to 'to conscience', always ask yourself 'to conscience', dare to ask 'to conscience'? It's like when you fall asleep, you often wake up and ask yourself if you are asleep, is it enough to prove that you are asleep? ”

"Mr. Jinxi's learning, emphasizing the ontology and ignoring kung fu, is like sleeping with his eyes open, and those who are not good at it can't do it. Mr. Oyama's learning, emphasizing kung fu over the body, the more you have the heart to sleep, but you can't sleep. Where is the ontology? Mr. Yang Ming said that the body is too void to see its form, but there is a moment in the heart that can be perceived, without the slightest effort. ”

Listening to Tao Wangling's words, everyone couldn't help but applaud, and even Lin Yanchao showed a look of relief.

Tao Wangling's words are tantamount to refuting the mistakes of the two schools of thought that are most prevalent in Wang Xue today.

It is because the Confucianism never talks about the method of kung fu to the ontology, but only talks about kung fu, just like Wang Xue's conscience. Because if you want to work hard to the body, you have the heart and enter the heartless, and when the kung fu reaches the body, why bother asking? If you ask again, you will have two hearts, and you can't do your best. ”

"The learning of the world, there is public knowledge and independent knowledge, learning from public knowledge, that is reason, it is kung fu, from only knowledge to enlightenment, that is the heart, is the ontology, the reason is not good, that is hypocrisy, but the public knowledge also comes from the only knowledge, which is also unreasonable outside the heart. Therefore, I take learning as the first skill, and if I don't work hard, how can I know what is the only knowledge and what is the public knowledge? For example, if a dumb person eats bitter gourd, he can't say what he can eat, but you have to understand for yourself that you still need to eat this bitterness. Therefore, we Lin Xue is the first to work hard, what we want is that you eat this melon yourself, instead of eating the melon yourself, thinking about the taste in the mouth of the dumb person, or you don't eat the melon, as if you have eaten it. ”

Tao Wangling's words ushered in a burst of applause.

Many people who originally had prejudices against him Tao Wangling also showed admiration.

Xu Huobo and Yuan Keli saw Tao Wangling's machine to distinguish the disease, and the questions were difficult, and they came out with a piece of language to solve it, and they often got it at the moment, and they admired it from the bottom of their hearts.

Lin Yanchao stroked his lips and smiled, and immediately got up to leave, Xu and Yuan saw Lin Yanchao leaving, although they were a little reluctant to continue listening, they could only leave.

When Lin Yanchao left, someone suddenly met him.

Although Lin Yanchao was not wearing an official robe, this person was shocked: "Isn't this Mr. Xuegong?" Meet the students! ”

Seeing this person's big salute, it was too late for Lin Yanchao to avoid it.

At this time, a group of people had already heard the words, and then they all got up and said, "It's Mr. Xuegong!" ”

"That's right, it's Lin Butang!"

"Quick, Lin Butang is leaving, please ask him to stay."

Lin Yanchao was also very embarrassed to be recognized, he didn't come to steal the limelight from the students.

But Tao Wangling had already seen this, and he walked down from the pulpit and saluted Lin Yanchao: "Teacher, please come to the stage to correct the shortcomings of what the students said." ”

Hearing Tao Wangling say this, he immediately talked about it from all sides.

Countless scholars from all over the world have already heard of Lin Yanchao's reputation, how can he now be the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, although this Lingji Palace lecture is very high, but it is also not touching the other party.

But today he came to listen to the lecture, and he happened to be recognized, so everyone was unwilling to let it go, and a crowd of people surrounded Lin Yanchao and begged him to come to the stage to speak.

Lin Yanchao saw that he couldn't shirk it, and it would be hypocritical to continue like this, so he happily agreed to take the stage.

If Tao Wangling came to the stage just now, and everyone applauded and greeted him, then now it is a different scene.

Everyone is scrambling to catch a glimpse of Lin Yanchao's demeanor, today's Lin Xue has a tendency to be on a par with Zhu and Wang Erxue, in the inheritance of their respective genres, it is easy for you to meet Zhan Ruoshui or Wang Ji, but is it easy to meet Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming?

It's a bit exaggerated, but in the hearts of Lin scholars, Lin Yanchao has such a status.

For many people, this is an unforgettable scene.

It's nothing to participate in the exam, I have participated in it as a lifter, but it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be able to meet Lin Yanchao and listen to his lectures in the capital.

So when Lin Yanchao took the stage, he looked around and saw such an emotional scene.

Lin Yanchao stretched out his hand and pressed it, and the sound of the scene stopped suddenly.

Lin Yanchao was on the podium, looking at the people who were looking forward to the moves, and sighed in his heart, these people admired him so much, it was really beyond their expectations.

He is also just a traveler, and his theories are all on the shoulders of 'posterity'. Therefore, he deserves to enjoy the reputation of this great Confucian, but so many people worship him so much, do he leave something that can benefit them for a lifetime and be used for a lifetime?

Lin Yanchao thought of this, so he cleared his throat and said: "Everyone, I have been an official for many years, and I am busy with official business, so I can't help but worship the truth and get rid of the void. But if you invite me to come here, I will ask what I will take in this examination. Then I beg your pardon for being difficult to comment. ”

Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

Lin Yanchao nodded and said: "But Zhou Wang invited me to the stage, and it was not easy to shirk, so I said two words from the bottom of my heart, the study of this work is the study of practice, although I created this school, it does not mean that what I think is right, if I fall into such an idea, it is like going astray, no matter how good the knowledge is, it is wrong." The original intention of my founding of the Shigong School is to hope that you will be inclusive of all schools, use whatever is useful, and always practice and update your knowledge in Shigong, so that people all over the world can do this, and I should be gratified. ”

After Lin Yanchao finished speaking, he was interrupted by a warm applause, and everyone's faces showed a look of reverence and admiration.

Lin Xue's sentence 'practice produces true knowledge', through the spread of Lin Yanchao and Tao Wangling, has been deeply rooted in the hearts of many readers, and scholars who learn from practice do not know this sentence, just like Wang Xue's people do not know 'to conscience'.

Lin Yanchao continued: "More than ten days later, it is the period of Dabi, I have some experience in talking about this matter, the longer I have been an official, the more I understand one thing, no matter where you are, you must return to your original intention in the end." My county test, government test, hospital test, all the way smooth, never fell first, along the way I saw countless people fall off the list, so I worked hard, for fear of being the same as them, and finally three yuan and the first, but also the science of the first test, into the Hanlin Academy. ”

"Some of those who fail to make the list are still studying, some are teaching and educating people, some are rich in business, their lives may not be ruined, and many of them are still unhappy, some have been dismissed, some have even been exiled, and more people are trapped in intrigue, they would rather return to their hometowns to cultivate the fields than stay in the officialdom."

"Since we started reading history, some people have asked why we should read history, and we have replied that we should learn from history. Why do we want to learn poetry, we answer that we cultivate temperament. But I don't think so, it's better that I like to read history and learn poetry, that's all. Now it's going to be a big competition, and someone asked why we went to the test, and we replied that we would be officials. So why are so many officials dismissed from office every year? ”

"In the past, I have asked many colleagues, why do you want to be an official? These colleagues are all my friends, so they know everything, there is humanity, in order to glorify the lintel, glorify the ancestors, and some people even directly answer that it is for fame and fortune. I smiled, just as there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book, I study to be an official, why can't being an official be an official for the golden house, Yan Ruyu? ”

But later, over time, these colleagues who were officials in the Golden House for Yan Ruyu left one after another, asking them why, and some of them said that they couldn't stand the hardships, so they were insufficient, and they couldn't stand the hard work. Some people were even imprisoned and exiled for being greedy for ink. But there are some other officials, they directly told me that they like to be officials, they often talk to me about dedication to the people, how to get rid of the accumulated evils of this officialdom, punish the traitors and promote the good, these people have ambitions, the original intention has not changed, and they are still in the court, and they can be the pillars of the country. ”

"That's right, the court set up officials for the Son of Heaven and herdsmen, but for those of us who are officials, there is only one thing to be an official, and that is to serve the country and the people. As long as I can take the world as my responsibility, then what is the fame and fortune for me? Before today's big competition, please ask yourself if you have the ambition to help the common people? To be a parent to the people under his rule? I don't want to do this, and I have two hearts as an official, and I can't do my best, let alone like it, and the years spent in the officialdom are just the time of the court rewarding you. Where the original intention lies, and where can it be returned in the end, Lin hopes that everyone who seeks the imperial examination likes to be an official! ”

After Lin Yanchao finished speaking, he immediately waved to the audience, and then calmly walked off the podium, Yuan Keli and Zhang Rulin followed, but seeing Lin Yanchao in front of him, the crowd automatically separated at this moment.

I don't know who was the first to applaud, and the applause was thunderous and lasted for a long time.

Tao Wangling, who was in the audience, walked in front of Lin Yanchao and said with emotion: "Teacher, I thought I could become a teacher after three years in Zhejiang, but listening to the teacher's words today, I knew that my knowledge was still beyond the reach of the teacher, and the students were convinced!" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "I also feel like listening to your words, I am not afraid of other things, but I am afraid that the learning of the ancestors will be lost from my hands, and now I have entrusted people, this revitalization of practical learning, carry forward the great thing, you are enough." ”

"The students are grateful for the trust of the teachers, and the students are all thanks to the teachers today." Tao Wangling heard the words for a long time.

Many people heard the conversation in the audience, Lin Yanchao earnestly advised, entrusted with the mantle, such a picture is like the ancients passed down the Tao.

In the eyes of Yuan Keli and Xu Huobo, it was like Yang Shi bidding farewell to Cheng Yi and spreading the true transmission of science to Tiannan, and a few years later, Yang Shi returned to Cheng Yizhi's side again to thank his teacher.

Under the Lingji Palace, among the 3,000 people, on the pulpit, this scene happened so naturally.

Lin Yanchao raised his head and laughed, and left with a wave of his sleeves, and wherever he passed, the people were in awe, and they all paid tribute to him.

Lin Yanchao raised his hand to return the salute, and the crowds were crowded, vying to see the demeanor of Lin Yanchao, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites.

"That's how a husband should be!"

"It's worth the day!"

"Mr. Xuegong's words are enough to be used for a lifetime!"

There are also humanitarians: "We and other mortals are all working for rice, and we can't talk about our original intentions." ”

Another two scholars in the distance said: "Fame and fortune are just sand in the blink of an eye, and only three stands are truly immortal." ”

"Yes, Lin Sanyuan has already made a statement, it depends on whether he can make meritorious service and establish morality."
