It's just a matter of recruiting talents in the name of the old man, and he actually uses the old man's "Five Classics of Justice", which is unbearable, Lao Kong is so angry that he wants to kill people!

This "Five Classics of Justice" Kong Yingda's life's work is where he thinks that he will compile this book successfully in this life, and he will be famous for his achievements in later generations, and will be admired by later generations of Confucian students. But when Fang Jun does this, students from all over the world will inevitably gather, and when the time comes, this book will become a major event of Confucianism, and it is the crystallization of collective wisdom, what does it have to do with Lao Tzu?

But these words are a little unspeakable, do you want to say that I compiled this book to be famous for future generations, as for what "compatible with Baishi and integrating the north and south" is simply a gimmick?

Kong Yingda does have the intention of borrowing books to become famous, of course, she is not exactly so philistine! Now that he is so mixed with Fang Jun, the old man finds that he has nothing to say!

What a gas!

Seeing that Kong Yingda was so angry that he was about to have high blood pressure, Fang Jun hurriedly explained: "The scale of this book is huge, and it is definitely not something that one person can bear. If the achievements of scripture and scholarship since the Western Han Dynasty can be preserved, so that the words of the former teachers will not be extinguished, and future generations of scholars will have some admiration, wouldn't it be a great merit of Confucianism, and as the editor-in-chief, wouldn't you be a sage and sage who is highly respected by future generations? And the more people participate, the greater the influence of the book, and perhaps the "Five Classics of Justice" can be issued by the imperial court as the standard interpretation of the scriptures, if so, it will be regarded as the completion of the unprecedented evolution process from strife to unity in the history of the scriptures. At that time, you will be a great scholar who has summarized and unified Confucian scriptures. ”

Kong Yingda thought about it carefully and felt that Fang Jun's words were not completely unreasonable.

Confucianism has had many schools since the Western Han Dynasty, and teachers have different theories.

At that time, the "poem" was divided into Qi, Lu and Han, the "book" was divided into Ouyang, the big and small Xiahou, and the "Li" had "etiquette" and "the record of etiquette", of which the "Book of Rites" was divided into large and small Dai, and "Yi" was divided into Shi, Meng, Liangqiu and Jing, and "Spring and Autumn" was divided into two transmissions of Gong and Gu, and the ram had Yan and Yan Zhixue.

The history of scripture refers to these disagreements as "teachers' methods."

Later, under the banner of the teacher's law, the scripture teacher gave birth to different opinions, so he divided the "family law", and then separated various experts from the family law. Just like the trunk of a tree branches, the school branches and branches, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, gradually losing the fundamentals, and the meaning of the scriptures is difficult to understand. Therefore, there is "apprenticeship and little work, and later doubts and sighs".

Later, the ancient literature flourished, and the entanglement was reborn.

"Poems" has Mao Chuan and Qilu Han to compete for the male, "Yi" has Gao Fei and Shi Meng to win, "Spring and Autumn" has Zuo Chuan to rise suddenly, "Li" and "Zhou Li" and the score of high and low, "Book" has 16 ancient texts in the wall......

The text is modern and ancient, the teachers say different things, and all kinds of differences disturb the fog of the scripture pulpit.

Prior to this, there had been three major academic discussions.

One is that Emperor Xuan of the Western Han Dynasty has the Shiqu Pavilion Conference, the second is that Emperor Zhang of the Eastern Han Dynasty has the discussion of the White Tiger View, and the third is that Zheng Xuan at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty does not talk about family law and pays attention to the group scriptures.

The meeting of Shiqu Pavilion focused on the problem of the complexity of the teacher's theory within the scriptures, and the result of the discussion was not only not to unify the differences between the teachers, but to increase the number of doctors, which aggravated the generation of dissenting theories within the scriptures; The discussion of the White Tiger Concept focused on the discussion of the differences between modern and ancient texts, and the result was "White Tiger Tongyi", which used Dong Zhongshu's heavenly and human induction and Western Han superstition to unify the ideology, and did not correct the excellent content of the ancient scriptures, and did not achieve the goal of academic unification.

This situation was tolerable at the time of the separation of political power, but after the reunification of the world, especially since the Sui Dynasty established the county and state schools to raise scholars, and opened the Ming Jing and Jinshi Departments to recruit talents, there was no unified interpretation of the scriptures as teaching materials and standards for class examinations, which was bound to bring a lot of trouble to education and election work.

Emperor Wen of Sui ordered the examination of Guozijian students and prepared to recruit them on the basis of merit, but "since Zhengshuo has been inconsistent for three hundred years, there is nothing to correct the teacher training", the answer could not be agreed, and the doctors could not evaluate the examination papers......

That's embarrassing.

With the rise of the imperial examination in this dynasty, many Confucian students got the opportunity to be promoted, but because the answers to the Confucian scriptures were not uniform, it brought great difficulty to the scriptures examination, so when Fang Jun led the reform of the imperial examination, he deleted a large number of examination questions of the classics, and instead added a large number of questions about Chinese studies and arithmetic. If there was a unified answer to the scriptures, how could it be reduced to such a situation?

Well, no matter whether Fang Jun's original intention was to suppress scripture or what, that's what Confucian children thought anyway......

As a leader of Confucianism, Kong Yingda's original intention of compiling the "Five Classics of Justice" originated from this.

Fang Jun has no objection to this.

Confucianism may not be as unbearable as some extremists in later generations said, and even think that it is the main culprit that causes the Chinese nation to lag behind the world, and it is even more nonsense to imprison the mind and hinder the development of natural science.

Since the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has been the only orthodoxy supported by the ruling class, so why did the Sui Dynasty not lag behind in science and technology? Why didn't the Tang Dynasty lag behind in science and technology? Why is the scientific and technological level of Liangsong proud of the world? Why did the early Ming Dynasty still lead the world?

In the final analysis, everything is the fault of the system, and it has nothing to do with what doctrine is believed.

Confucianism is just a philosophy, talking about self-cultivation, the imperial examinations before the middle of the Song Dynasty are mostly policy theories, rarely to the scriptures, and to the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the scriptures and classics are raised to infinite heights, but to pursue the "half of the treatise on the rule of the world", you don't lose the country, who dies the country?

Moreover, the theme of Confucian classics in the early stage was positive and healthy, but in the late Song Dynasty, Cheng Zhu Lixue made it enter the nest to the extreme, and the eight strands of literature in the Ming and Qing dynasties were the culprits who imprisoned the thoughts!

Confucianism is extremely effective for a person's self-cultivation and moral cultivation, so Fang Jun is absolutely not averse to Confucianism.

Seeing Kong Yingda's anger gradually subside, Fang Jun struck while the iron was hot and said: "You are the editor-in-chief, you can dominate everything, you are the soul of this "Five Classics of Justice"!" It is the revival of Confucianism! He is the holy teacher of the Confucian students of later generations! ”

The name "Holy Ancestor" was probably given to the descendants of Confucius in the Song Dynasty, and Fang Jun is now generous to others and gave Kong Yingda in advance, which is not excessive, anyway, it is all the Confucian family......

Kong Yingda was moved this time.

Fang Jun's position as the "editor-in-chief" is indeed the core of this book.

In the process of compiling the annotations, the formulation of righteous precedents and the examination of right and wrong were all decided by Kong Yingda. As the editor-in-chief, Kong Yingda has the right to choose an excellent commentary as the standard commentary among the many scripture chapters and verses, and then elaborate on the scripture commentary.

Kong Yingda is also a layman, and he is a layman who has the pursuit of fame and fortune, and can not only reflect his own value, but also gather outstanding Confucian scholars in the world to compile this book, as a classic of Confucianism, can he not do it?

However, Kong Yingda has gone through the world, so he naturally calmed down, and still agreed with Fang Jun's proposal in his heart, but his face was still a look of "I'm very unhappy, you owe me money", and said lightly: "Even if you can really gather Confucian students from all over the world to compile a book, how many copies can be published?" Even if it is printed, how many of the countless poor Confucian students can afford such a book? ”

Fang Jun almost raised a middle finger at the old man!

Our room 2 has always been a character who knocks on other people's bamboo poles properly, and today he is actually going to be knocked by you?

But Kong Yingda's name is really easy to use, now that today's cultural people are basically Confucian children, with him as a great god, the heroes of the world are not allowed to compete to vote?

If you want to take it, you must give it first......

Fang Jun gritted his teeth and said in a bloodletting manner: "Knowledge is the essence that distinguishes my generation from beasts. Promoting and disseminating knowledge is the responsibility of our generation, so in the near future, the younger generation will set up a bookstore to publish the "Book of Agriculture" that is about to be compiled. When the seniors successfully compiled this book, the younger generations published 10,000 copies, and the price of each copy was definitely not higher than 20 wen, what did the seniors think? ”

Kong Yingda suddenly smiled: "Fang Erlang is worthy of being a generous person, and this kind of good thing to spread knowledge should be as good as possible." The old man's name will be sold to you, and you can toss it. In addition, the old man would repair books to some old friends, and invite them to come to Huating Town, maybe he could also teach one or two in the school in his spare time. ”

Lao Kong heard that Fang Jun would print 5,000 copies of "The Five Classics of Justice", and the price was only twenty taels, but he was very happy. In this way, more poor students will be able to receive the most orthodox Confucian education.

It's just that I don't know what kind of mood Lao Kong will feel when he knows that Fang Jun is planning to publish the "Book of Agriculture" for free in the name of Princess Jinyang......
