Li Xisi and Liu Ximing both looked up in surprise, Liu Ximing didn't expect that there were still people in Sichuan who had come into contact with the Jesuits, and Li Ximing was completely surprised.

"God is above, dare to ask if Sir is also a believer in my Lord?" , Lyric looked forward to it.

The young man shook his head with a smile, "I am not with him in China, I have my own ancestors and gods to worship, and I am even more dedicated to the way of Confucius and Mencius, but I have no time to care about him." ”

Ye Xianzu immediately introduced to everyone: "This is a son-in-law, surnamed Huang Zongxi, the expression is too chong, Geng Wu Nian raised people, just a few days after coming from Zhejiang. ”

"Boom"

Liu Ximing seemed to have been struck by a bolt of lightning, and stood at the scene on the spot.

This person is Huang Zongxi?

The Huang Zongxi who wrote "Mingyi to be interviewed"?

Liu Ximing suddenly became excited, if there was anyone among the Meng Mo scholars who was still worthy of his attention, then Huang Zongxi would bear the brunt.

This person is known as the enlightener of the late thought, and the idea of "the world is the master, and the king is the guest" put forward by him is the rethinking of the scholars on the monarchy and civil rights in the past 2,000 years since Mencius.

Liu Ximing stepped forward with an excited face and bowed, "But Huang Taichong, who is known as the Three Yellows of Eastern Zhejiang?" ”

Du Liangji and the others looked at Liu Ximing a little strangely, even if they had not seen him so gaffe in the Xuezheng Yamen just now.

Huang Zongxi was also a little confused, and was randomly flattered and bowed back, "It is in the next, as for the so-called three yellows in eastern Zhejiang, it is just a person in Shilin, and the brother Tai praised it falsely." ”

Xie Wenle squeezed his eyes at Liu Ximing, "Ximing, is this Huang Gongzi very famous?" ”

"Hahaha, don't you hear about the beard puller in the hall?" , Liu Ximing smiled.

Huang Zongxi was said to be proud, and touched the short beard on his chin a little reservedly, "I didn't expect that I, Huang, also have a confidant in the land of Sichuan and Shu, which is really rare." ”

"Oh, you should talk about it carefully", Xie Wenle saw that Liu Ximing and Huang Zongxi were dumb, and he was so anxious that he kept pulling Liu Ximing's sleeve.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect to meet Huang Taichong today, it's really a blessing for three lives."

Liu Ximing turned his head to look at Du Liangji and the others, who were also slightly confused, knowing that they were closed to news, and explained.

"Brother Huang's father is known as the Seven Gentlemen of Donglin, when Wei Zhongxian was tried for rebellion against the party, Xu Xianchun argued that he was the grandson of Queen Xiaoding and should not be punished, or Brother Taichong reprimanded him angrily, and finally let the eunuch party subdue the law."

Liu Ximing glanced at the people who listened to the story, and looked at Huang Zongxi's eyes with a little admiration, "What's even more admirable is that in order to avenge his father, Brother Taichong actually gave birth to Cui Yingyuan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, to comfort his father, it is said that everyone in the lobby of the Criminal Department was moved at that time, isn't such a character worthy of respect?" ”

Xie Wenle and Du Liangji gasped and took a sip of cool skin, and the scholars of Zhedong were strong.

Ye Xianzu and several other young people also looked at Liu Ximing with extremely kind eyes.

Huang Zongxi pursed his mouth and bowed down and hugged his fists again, "Thanks to Brother Liu Xian's praise, I really don't deserve it." ”

"Taichong Guoqian", Zheng Mingrui, another young man who came with Huang Zongxi, smiled exaggeratedly, "These things are well known in Zhejiang, but this brother Tai is in the land of Sichuan and Shu, but he knows a lot about Brother Taichong, which is indeed rare." ”

The corners of Liu Ximing's mouth turned up, "The provincial governor Liu Jianhou Liu Gong is also from Donglin, thanks to his old man's many teachings, I know a little about Shilin." ”

"Hahaha, it's really a fellow believer, come on, everyone, please."

Huang Zongxi and the others were even more happy, and hurriedly beckoned Liu Ximing and the others to sit down.

Du Liangji and the others were a little surprised to see Liu Ximing gain everyone's attention again, didn't he come in here because of Xie Wenle, how did he become as if he had inherited Liu Ximing's love.

Huang Zongxi seems to have a relatively high status in Ye Xianzu's heart, and Liu Ximing sees that he has no restraint in front of an ordinary son-in-law.

He directly pulled Liu Ximing to sit down rather happily, "Brother Liu Xian, I don't know why you came to Chengdu?" And how with this Jesuit? ”

"Don't dare to hide it from my brother", Liu Ximing saw Huang Zongxi's kind face and took the opportunity to improve the relationship, "I am here for the current Academy of Sciences, since my brother is a senior in the scientific field, I will have to ask for more benefits when I go back." ”

"As for the ...... of this Mr. Li", Liu Ximing introduced the relationship between the two again

Huang Zongxi and others suddenly realized that the Jesuits also had churches in many places in Zhejiang, and everyone had more or less contact with them, but there were still very few people who could accept them.

In particular, Huang Zongxi had heard about the last Nanjing teaching case, and these barbarians actually demanded that religious believers not worship their ancestors and not visit the Confucian Temple.

Such absurdities were repaid, and the Jesuits in Nanking were immediately expelled from Nanking.

It's a good thing that this Liu Xiandi doesn't have a deep relationship with the Jesuits.

"Speaking of the imperial examination", Huang Zongxi patted Liu Ximing on the shoulder with a bitter face, "Foolish brother, a person who has fallen behind, where is he qualified to teach you, I am really ashamed." ”

Liu Ximing silently flipped through his memory, and it seemed that Huang Zongxi had not passed the Jinshi examination.

"Brother doesn't have to be lost, the younger brother has always thought that the things in the field are three points to learn, seven points of luck, even if he can win, it does not mean that this person must be talented and good at doing things, and today's imperial examination, there are few thought-provoking places, and there are many thoughts that imprison people, and they have fallen into the realm of obsolescence and uselessness."

"Whoever has the talent to help the people in the world will not take the imperial examination as the priority, but still learn from the practical and useful. The imperial examination is just a stepping stone to officialdom, and if you use it, you will abandon it, and those who cannot abandon it will inevitably be mistaken by it. ”

"In today's affairs, the officials do not do anything, and the officials do not know the people, because they do not know how to abandon them."

"Well said, hahaha."

When Huang Zongxi heard Liu Ximing's words, he was so excited that he clapped his hands wildly, startling all the people at the same table.

"Brother Xian, you are really a foolish brother, I have been observing the affairs of the field for a long time, as the brother said, the life of the imperial examination is really a big trouble in today's world."

"Foolish brothers are often in eastern Zhejiang, Jiangnan is beautiful and talented, but once they become officialdom, most of them become corrupt and stupid, and they have no merit for the people to be officials, and they only know how to ask for land and scrape the ground, which is the harm of the imperial examination."

Liu Ximing glanced at Ye Xianzu, who was dressed in a casual robe, without a trace, and felt a little funny in his heart, your father-in-law seems to be a little similar.

"Brother Taichong is reasonable, but the younger brother feels that it needs to be carefully analyzed at this time, and the younger brother thinks that the imperial examination itself is not too bad, hundreds of years ago, China's politics was just gate politics, and it was Emperor Yang who created a precedent for the imperial examination, and Chinese politics gradually turned to scholar politics."

Ye Xianzu was originally chatting with Xie Wenle and the others, but when he heard Liu Ximing's words, he stopped and looked at Liu Ximing.

That's kind of funny.

Liu Ximing took a sip of the tea cup and continued: "The imperial examination does play a great role in maintaining social fairness and justice. ”

"However, today's imperial examinations have indeed imprisoned the minds of scholars, and I think that the fundamental reason is not in the imperial examinations, but in the content of the imperial examinations."

Huang Zongxi was a little puzzled, "What is this statement?" ”

"Today's imperial examination, only the four books and five classics are examined, and they must be expounded in accordance with the way of Cheng Zhu's science.

"The spirit of China today is not formed by the Confucian and Mencian families, not to mention the study of Cheng Zhu, which is really a collection of the essence of Confucianism, law, Taoism and Mo, but in today's world, we expect scholars to peek into the road of China with the views of Cheng Zhu and Confucius."

"If there is something incomprehensible with one of the things of the Tao, what everyone thinks and thinks is the same, so how can the ideological spirit push through the old and bring forth the new."

Zhu Zi himself wrote a poem saying that "asking the canal is as clear as promised, for there is a source of living water", but he did not know that he himself cut off the source of Chinese thought one by one, isn't it ridiculous? ”

Everyone in the backyard fell silent all of a sudden, as if they were all thinking about whether Liu Ximing was right or not.

Liu Ximing glanced at Ye Xianzu and a few others in some surprise, he originally thought that these people would also be a stormy spray, after all, Cheng Zhu Lixue is a positive student, and everyone will subconsciously refute and defend it.

Now it seems that people do gather by like, and things are divided by groups, and the people around Huang Zongxi are somewhat different.
