Zhu Gengzao's position as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites allowed Lin Yanchao to let go of many things.

Lin Yanchao's personal article on commemorating Hai Rui was also published in Tianli Daily.

Tianli Bao not only represents the Ministry of Rites, but also the official media, representing the opinions and attitudes of the imperial court.

And Lin Yanchao, as a high-ranking official like the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, personally wrote in the official media, which was unprecedented and unheard of.

For example, the Xinmin Daily of the Hanlin Academy, Ye Xianggao, Sun Chengzong, and Fang Congzhe, who are the main writers, are just petty officials of the sixth or seventh grades, and there are even Shu Jishi like Yuan Zongdao.

And Huangming Daily, which is known as the first official media, is only at the level of the imperial history of the Seven Grades Dao.

Lin Yanchao, as a waiter of the Zhengsanpin Rite Department, personally went down to write articles, which is very rare.

Lin Yanchao's first article published in Tianli Daily.

Green pines and cypresses, this is exactly the quote from Li Zhen's comment on Haigang Peak.

After the Tianli newspaper was published, it was immediately transmitted to the three provinces of Liangjing with the official post, copied from the provincial capitals of the thirteen provinces, and then distributed to the state capital in the form of official documents, and then sent to the county through the state capital.

Ying Tianfu, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, has Nanjing Guozijian, and the characters are gathered, and it is known as the abyss of the southeast figures.

In Qingliang Mountain of Yingtianfu, there is a Chongzheng Academy.

Teaching Jiao Hong is reading the Tianli Bao published by the Nanjing Ministry of Rites.

Jiao Hong is 49 this year, he is 27 years old to lecture at Nanjing Qingliangshan Chongzheng Academy, the reputation of the southeast Shilin, known as the Shilin sacrificial wine.

It is currently in the scorching heat, and Qingliang Mountain is a good place to cool off.

Jiao Hong was reading in the teaching room of the academy, and the mountain wind outside the house rustled the trees, but in addition, the surroundings seemed extraordinarily quiet.

After reading Lin Yanchao's article in the Tianli Daily, Jiao Hong couldn't calm down for a long time, so he stood up and wandered around the house.

At this time, someone knocked on the door outside the house, interrupting Jiao Hong's contemplation.

Jiao Hong heard that someone knocked on the door, so he could only put down his thoughts and open the door himself, and couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, it turned out that the person who came was his friend outside the party.

Wu Nian, commonly known as Xiong, has a deep legal name, no Nian, is the abbot of Longtan Lake Fozhi Temple, and a friend of Jiao Hong.

The two were very happy to see each other, and then Wunian said to Jiao Hong: "Zhuo Wu has been shaved." ”

After listening to Wu Nian's words, Jiao Hong sighed and said, "He still came this far." ”

Zhuo Wu is Li Zhen, in the eighth year of Wanli, after Li Zhen served as a prefect from Yao'an, he lived in Huang'an for a while, and then when he lectured in Macheng, he fought with Nanjing's right capital Yu Shi Geng.

At that time, Li Zhen and Geng Xiang were both Confucians, and the scolding battle between the two of them caused a big stand of the southeast scholars.

Among them, Geng Xiang denounced Li Zhen as a heretic, and Li Zhen simply regarded himself as a heretic, so there was a matter of shaving. Li Zhen's ordination was not for the sake of becoming a monk, but a kind of rebellion against Geng Xiang's attack on him.

Regarding the argument between the two, Jiao Hong is also in a dilemma.

Wu Nian immediately took out a book and handed it to Jiao Hong and said: "Shouwu said that you are the only Confucian scholar in the world who knows him best, this book is called Zangshu, and what Shouwu said is all deviant words, showing it to the world is afraid that it will be too shocking, so I only give one or two confidants to look at it, so I ordered the little monk to take it for my brother to see." ”

Faced with this, Jiao Hong was very moved, solemnly accepted it at the moment, and then took out the Tianli report and said to Wu Nian: "I don't know if I have read this newspaper?" There is an article in the main issue of this newspaper written by Lin Xuegong, praising Haigangfeng with my words. ”

Wu Nian nodded and immediately said: "After Mr. Liu Tang read this newspaper, he handed it over to the Shoulder Wu Layman, and after reading this article, he praised that Lin Xuegong is the only person in the world who can understand Haigang Peak, and he is also the person who can understand him." The revitalization of Confucianism, after sweeping away Confucius, the pseudo-Taoism that talked about famous religions fell on Lin Xuegong. ”

Jiao Hong couldn't help but say: "This matter is also strange, my teacher Mr. Tiantai also said the same, he said that today's learning is more admiring and evil, not teaching people with righteousness, and biasing heresies to be amazing." He studied Mencius all his life to reject Yang Mo, and spared no effort to ward off strange and idle evils. But when he read Mr. Xuegong's words, he thought that this was the right way, which could be the emperor's teacher and educate the people of the world. ”

Jiao Hong's teacher Geng Xiang scolded Li Zhen for a long time.

Geng Xiangxiang is also a native of Wang Xuezhong, but he imprisoned Yan Jun back then, thinking that he was an evil demon in Wang Xuezhong.

After Yan Jun, Geng Xiang fought a scolding war with Li Zhen in the Taizhou School.

However, Geng Xiang and Li Zhen, two characters with diametrically opposite concepts, unanimously praised Lin Xue, thinking that this was the right way, but Jiao Hong admired it a little.

Jiao Hong said: "Today's science has become a stepping stone to meet the dynasty and seek fame, and the study of mind has gradually become a way to get rid of life and death, and to seek the law of birth. ”

"Today's forestry science, inheriting the Yongjia school of the Southern Song Dynasty, boasts of changing the law with merit, and has a great sweep of Zhu Xue, Wang Xue's atmosphere, so to speak

I can't put into words how many of these ideas I dare not admit easily. For example, Lin Xue, from the outer king does not need to be the inner saint, it is really shocking, but from virtue to Taoism, it is our Wang Xue's proposition, I don't know what the difference is. ”

Wu Nian said on the side: "The layman has a heart to explore, it is a coincidence, the poor monk came to Jinling from Macheng on the way, just heard that Lin Xuegong's disciple Tao Zhouwang, from Zhejiang ready to come to Jinling, I heard that I want to give a lecture in the Tianjie Temple, you and I just take a look, debate whether there is something unique in its learning. ”

Jiao Hong was surprised: "Tao Zhouwang? Could it be the son of Tao Zongbo? ”

Wu Nian nodded and said: "It's him, he has been by Lin Xuegong's side for the longest time, and he has taught the deepest knowledge. ”

Tao Zhouwang was in the township for a year, and immediately went to Yongjia, Ningbo, and Hangzhou to give lectures, and the readers flocked to him, and many people followed the battle, and heard that there were hundreds of thousands of people who had listened to his lectures in just one year, and there were thousands of his disciples.

Jiao Hong gasped and said, "There are so many, and there weren't so many Yangmingzi students back then. ”

Wu Nian said: "Of course, this is also related to forestry, and its purpose is to teach without class, regardless of background, even if you are not a scholar, you are a businessman, or a craftsman." As long as these people pay some meager bundle repairs, they can be voted under the door, and Zhejiang is the place where the Yongjia school arose, and the merits of Lin Xue's advocacy and the benefit of merchants and workers have of course been supported by many scholars and merchants, and even more than 100 people worship Tao Zhouwang's door in one day. ”

Jiao Hong couldn't help but be surprised that Lin Xue's momentum was so great now, and then he said: "In this way, this Lin Xue has his uniqueness, but back then, Yan Shannong also lectured in Jiangnan with the theory of six emergencies and six rescues, and there were hundreds of thousands of listeners. However, Yan Shannong corrupted Mr. Xinzhai's learning, and entrusted his name to Mr. Xinzhai, which is like Xunzi admitting to the authenticity of Confucius, which is really wrong for many people in the world. ”

When Jiao Hong said this, he remembered Lin Yanchao's Lin Xue and self-confessed Xunzi, and suddenly added three points of suspicion.

Yan Shannong is Yan Jun, and Yan Jun was imprisoned in Nanjing for three years by Geng Xiang.

Yan Jun and Li Zhen like to give lectures in the people, and then recruit a large number of disciples, Geng Xiang as a Wang Xuezhong, his academic advocacy is to worship the righteous way, Di Zhengdao, think that Yan Jun's learning is suspected of corrupting the social atmosphere, so he used his official identity to imprison Yan Jun.

Under Jiao Hong's eyes, Yan Jun and He Xinyin preached everywhere, and He Xinyin was also preparing to establish his own local organization and establish his own township covenant, similar to the existence of a utopian society.

In addition, because of the teacher, Jiao Hong did not have a good impression of Yan Jun, so he was worried that Tao Wangling would come to Nanjing to give a lecture, afraid that he would distort the purpose of Confucianism like Yan Jun.

A few days later, Jiao Hong learned that Tao Wangling had come to Yingtian and stayed in the Heavenly Realm Temple.

Tao Wangling really caused a sensation when he came, there were more than 100 disciples who followed him all the way from Zhejiang, and Yingtian's scholars heard of his reputation for lecturing in Zhejiang, and they were all willing to go to Tianjie Temple to listen to his lectures.

Not only that, but also scholars from Huguang, Jiangxi, and Henan listened to the news and rushed to Jinling to listen to his lectures.

As for the Chongzheng Academy where Jiao Hong is located, there are also many scholars who want to go to the Heavenly Realm Temple to listen to Tao Wangling's lectures, but Jiao Hong strictly restricts his students, telling them to focus on their careers first and not to be distracted.

But the students said that at present, Lin Butang first served as the examiner of the examination, and now he is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and with him in the court, it must be a matter of promoting Lin Xue's entry into the imperial examination, and we will go to Tao Wangling for advice, maybe it will be beneficial in the future.

When the student said this, he stinged Jiao Hong's mind. Jiao Hong, as a lifter, has repeatedly failed to test, and Lin Yanchao, as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, will also preside over the imperial examination in the future.

Thinking of this, Jiao Hong couldn't stop the students anymore, and at this time, another friend came to visit.

This friend is none other than Tang Xianzu.

Tang Xianzu in history has long been admitted to the Jinshi, but now he has been removed from his reputation because of the previous newspaper for Lin Yanchao, and now although he has resumed his status as a lifter, the imperial examination has been delayed.

However, Tang Xianzu is now in Nanjing, and he and Jiao Hong are good friends, both of whom studied under the great Confucian Luo Rufang, and formed a deep friendship at the beginning.

But seeing Tang Xianzu came to see Jiao Hong, the two chatted for a while, and when talking about Tao Wangling's lecture in the Tianjie Temple, Tang Xianzu laughed and said: "I was in Beijing back then, Mr. Cheng Xuegong taught, his knowledge and insight are difficult for me to peep, but with his disciples but have a deep relationship, Tao Zhouwang is one of them, in order to admonish the matter, he was imprisoned in the Shuntian Mansion, the official asked him to slander Mr. Xuegong, but he did not say a word, even if such a person does not ask about learning, he can also be handed over." The weak marquis is interested, and I can introduce you to you. ”

At that moment, Tang Xianzu, Jiao Hong, and Wu Nian came to the Heavenly Realm Temple.

But under the mountain gate of the Tianjie Temple, there is an endless stream of scholars on the road, and there are many merchants, monks, and even farmers and craftsmen.

Tianjie Temple was originally a holy place of Zen Gate, and Dabao'en Temple and Linggu Temple were listed as the three major temples in Nanjing.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was in Nanjing, he came to the Tianjie Temple many times. Tao Wangling lectured in the Tianjie Temple, disturbing the purity of Buddhism, but everyone in the temple knew that his teacher Lin Yanchao was the current waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the Monk Lu Division was under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites, so he did not offend Tao Wangling.

However, Tao Wangling knew that it was not good to disturb the cultivation of the temple people, so he chose a place to live next to the temple, but fortunately, the Heavenly Realm Temple was very large, and he also found a place to live.

When the three of them came to Tao Wangling's place where he was staying in the Heavenly Realm Temple, they saw that a lecture was going on here.

Tao Wangling sat on the stage with an official-looking person, this official Jiao Hong also knows, and is the current Nanjing Taichang Temple Chenglin Shibi.

This Lin Shibi is a scholar in the eighth year of Wanli, born in the Lianpu Lin clan of the imperial examination family, I heard that this person is not good to be an official, and he especially likes elegant things (visiting the green building), and he is a monk and a layman.

And sitting opposite Tao Wangling and Lin Shibi are Gu Tang, Li Deng and others, these people Jiao Hong also knows that they are from famous families in Jiangnan and local celebrities.

The lecture began with a mutual debate, which is also the usual way.

Hundreds of scholars sat on the floor and listened to the debate.

Jiao Hong, Tang Xianzu, and Wunian were not in a hurry to debate when they came, but sat on the ground and listened to the debate of several people.

But seeing Li Deng come forward and ask: "Mr. Tao's learning is passed on from Mr. Xuegong, I heard that Mr. Xuegong and his ilk are passed on from Xunzi's lineage, and I heard that Xunzi's learning is passed on from Zigong, Zigong is one of the ten philosophers of the Holy Gate, Ran Yong is good at virtue, Xunzi compares his own learning to Zigong, does Mr. Tao think so?" ”

Li Deng questioned Xunzi Taoism, Xunzi said many times in the book that his knowledge came from Zigong, and this is different from Zisi, Mencius, the Simeng school, and said that the Simeng school misinterpreted the meaning of Confucius, and he and Zigong are the authentic.

But some people questioned that Xunzi had not gotten the true transmission of Confucianism at all, and Ran Yong's knowledge was based on virtue, and there was no set of Xunzi's mixed royal tyrants.

After listening to Li Deng's words, Tao Wangling's protégé below showed some anger.

But seeing that Tao Wangling was wearing Ge Yi, he smiled and said: "This mistake is also, Zigong is not Ran Yong, Ban Gu's "Confucian Biography" said: "Since Lu Shang Qu Zimu received Yi Confucius, in order to grant Lu Qiao to protect Ziyong." Ziyong awarded Jiangdong a bow. Zigong gave Yan Zhou the ugly family. The Zi family gave Dongwu Sun Yu Zi Cheng, this lineage has long been famous, why confuse Zigong with Ran Yong. ”

Li Deng asked if Tao Wangling was pleased, and then Gu Tang came forward and asked: "Lin Xue is a Confucian sect, and he claims to inherit the learning of the sage, according to Mr. Lin, then Zhu Xue and Wang Xue are not ridiculous, not from the teaching of the sage?" ”

Listening to Gu Tang's words, Jiao Hong's heart tightened, Tao Wangling's answer is not good, it will cause a big controversy among the three schools of Confucianism today.

When Tao Wangling heard this, he said, "Dare to ask Brother Gu where he came from?" ”

Gu Tang immediately said: "Mr. Jinxi." ”

Tao Wangling nodded and said: "It turned out to be Mr. Jinxi, I heard that Mr. Jinxi died in the township, which is really a loss for my Confucianism." But I don't know what to ask Gu, which lineage does Mr. Jinxi pass on from Wang Xue? ”

Gu Tang immediately couldn't say, after Wang Yangming's death, Wang Xue was divided into seven, and all factions said that they were authentic.

Tao Wangling said: "After the sage, Confucianism is divided into eight, all say that they are the true legend of the sage, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respects Confucianism alone, but the hundred schools are still there, and when it comes to the Song Dynasty, the first hundred schools of thought are returned to the Song people, and now they are swept away by the Song people to Zhu Zi. ”

"And what about what you see?" Gu Tang asked a little unconvinced.

Tao Wangling smiled and said: "Mr. Xuegong once told me a story, he said that there was a southerner who went north to study, and when he encountered a heavy snowstorm, he was about to starve to death. Southerners eat only rice, never millet rice, but they are too hungry to tell their hosts what makes it so delicious. The host smiled and said, "This is millet rice, because you are hungry, so you think it is delicious, because it is delicious, so you can eat it to your heart's content." Therefore, it is not possible to distinguish whether it is millet or rice. ”

Listening to Tao Wangling's words, Jiao Hong and Tang Xianzu all nodded.

The scholars also showed a sudden look, Tao Wangling continued: "Today's people are as small as Confucianism, and as big as asking, just like choosing food, only asking if they like to eat, not asking whether they are full or not, whether they are Zhu Xue, Wang Xue, and Lin Xue are like the south of rice and the north of millet rice. It is to seek food as well, as long as it is a person who is really hungry, how can he choose food. As for whether you like to eat rice or millet on weekdays, from the heart! ”

Tao Wangling's words ushered in the unanimous applause of the readers below.

Lin Shibi on the side also applauded and said: "Insightful." ”

Tao Wangling got up and bowed to thank him, his face was indifferent, and he didn't have any arrogance.

At this time, Jiao Hong had a great change in his opinion of Tao Wangling and Lin Xue, and at this time he couldn't help but say in the audience: "Lin Xue only talks about deeds, only about foreign kings, why don't you talk about life and not about inner saints?" ”

Everyone looked at it, and a scholar shouted, "Isn't this Mr. Jiao?" ”

"That's right, Mr. Jiao from Chongzheng Academy!"

"I should be the leader of Tianshilin, but I didn't expect him to come to listen to Mr. Tao's lecture."

On the stage, Tao Wangling heard that the other party was Jiao Hong, and immediately got up and said: "Tao has long heard of Mr. Jiao's name when he was in Zhejiang, and it is really a blessing to see him today, so please talk about it on stage." ”

Jiao Hong walked on the stage to confront everyone at the moment, Jiao Hong was very famous in Yingtian, and with him such as Li Deng, Gu Tang stepped aside.

Tao Wangling said: "I wish Mr. Wen a high opinion!" ”

Jiao Hong immediately said: "The three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism all talk about the study of life, in order to transcend life and death, and the science also talks about the inner sage to the outer king, with righteousness and sincerity, and the knowledge of things is the way of self-cultivation, but Lin Xue only talks about merit and does not talk about self-cultivation and life. ”

Jiao Hong's words can be described as thought-provoking, and both the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism focus on life, such as what people value, where people come from and where they go, how to transcend life and death, and see through these to obtain peace of mind.

In the past, Confucianism only focused on birth, how to govern the country and level the world.

The creation of science began to focus on itself, and created a method from the inside out, which is to have a righteous heart, learn from things, and then self-cultivation and rule the country and level the world.

As for Wang Xue, not to mention, he went one step further in the study of life.

But seeing Tao Wangling said: "The sage's learning has no way of life, Zigong once said that the master's article can be obtained and heard." The words of the master and the way of heaven cannot be obtained and heard. ”

Tao Wangling said, and everyone showed a look of listening carefully.
