"Sir, you don't know the strange relationship between us people and those who use the Book of Heaven!" Zhi Yun shook his head, naturally he would not be persuaded by Yan Ying in a few words.

"I've heard a little about what you're talking about!" Yan Zi nodded and said with a smile, "As far as I know, it's like a congenital favor, although it may be very profound at first, it will eventually change with the development of the day after tomorrow." ”

"Just like I heard that the thinker of the Warring States Period, Meng Ke, and Mr. Xun Wang's ancestor Xun Guo here, had a discussion about how innate human nature is." Yan Zi said with a smile, "But what they want to express is the education of the day after tomorrow, and the cultivation of the day after tomorrow is the key to shaping a person." ”

Mencius took the "Theory of Sexual Goodness" as the theoretical basis for people to cultivate moral character and practice the royal way of benevolence, and believed that the requirements of ethics and morality such as benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and wisdom originate from human nature and heart, which has ethical significance.

Xunzi believes that anything that has not been educated will not be good. Regarding the formation of "goodness" in human nature, Xunzi put forward the proposition that "human nature is evil, and its good is hypocritical". Although Xunzi's theory of human nature is the opposite of Mencius's, he also agrees that everyone can become a saint. Xunzi thinks that as far as the innate nature of human beings is concerned, "Yao Shunzhi and Ji Shunzhi have one nature, and the gentleman and the villain, one nature", are all born evil, and the difference between the acquired virtuous and foolish is due to "the accumulation of wrong customs". The acquired environment and experience play a decisive role in the transformation of human nature. Through people's subjective efforts, "their etiquette and righteousness, the system of law", and the transformation of people's "evil" nature, then "the person who is painted can be Yu".

In the final analysis, many Confucian disciples struggled with this, and for this reason, the 'debate between good and evil' became one of the most classic debates in Confucianism, and it led to the split of a series of schools of Confucianism.

In fact. Their concern is simply to abandon the basics.

Sexual evil, or sexual goodness, is not decisive for Confucianism. Its value lies only in the fact that such a foundation of human nature theory can provide the basis for the inner humanity of etiquette and music education in the real society.

Although Mencius's main philosophical idea, that is, his "theory of sexual goodness", is opposed to Xunzi's "theory of sexual evil". But fundamentally, it is only for the education of Confucianism and the education of etiquette and music. In the final analysis, both men are using this as a tool to advance their education.

Liang Qichao believes that Mencius's "Theory of Sexual Goodness" emphasizes the possibility of education, and Xunzi's "Theory of Sexual Evil" emphasizes the necessity of education.

Because human nature is inherently good, education may make people's virtues more complete, in line with people's inner pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty. So educate yourself.

In the same way, because human nature is inherently evil, if it is not educated, even Yao Shun will be the same evil person as Ji Jiao. So education is a must.

Therefore, in terms of promoting education, in fact, the purpose of the two is completely the same, both of them can become saints through education, and the so-called saints are the same as ordinary people, and they can only be acquired through hard work. to be able to achieve yourself.

Therefore, the fundamental purpose of the two is the same, and in their minds, those theories are just the basis for achieving the goal. It's like in the Jixia School Palace, no matter how you tear it up, it doesn't matter. Because the real reality is to go out and experiment before you know the results.

Maybe their original intention is not to fight in the ring at all, but to promote each other and stimulate each other's thinking. Later generations, however, are entangled in this because they care too much about their various opinions. Quarrels.

Of course, it is useless for others to say such things. Especially the people of the younger generations. Who dares to say that their ancestors are not, the Xun family will fight with you to the end every minute.

But. Now the situation is different, the great gods of the Zhuzi level have all appeared, and they are also the predecessors of their ancestors, Yan Zi said this, Xun Wang really didn't know how to deal with it.

Of course, Yan Zi does not want to say anything about the theory of the Xun family, the main purpose is to extract the essence of the truth, the so-called man will win the sky, innate good and evil is not the key to determining everything, the education you receive, the concept you hold is the foundation of your existence.

So, don't dwell on innate good and evil, and follow your own heart. Since you are a loyal and upright person, why do you want to do things with your heart because of your initial good impression of the Yellow Turban?

"Mr. is worthy of being a famous diplomat of the Warring States, a figure who can be easily used in all countries and can be called a prince, and the students admire him so much!" Zhi Yun shook his head, really speechless. Yan Zi has played the theories even after his time, and even the ideas that have been derived are completely unexpected. Although there is also the factor of Yanzi's own identity, which will not be affected by the shackles of Xunzi and Mencius's infinite prestige, it can also reflect that his insight in this area is indeed not comparable to ordinary people.

"Then let's not talk about theory, let's just say that the reality is good!" Yan Zi smiled slightly, and did not grasp a problem and chase hard, but changed the topic and continued to fight.

"As far as I know, since you appeared in Yuzhou, you must know about Peng Yue's situation!" Yan Zi smiled, "Peng Yue's example shows that your so-called innate shackles are not indestructible. Have you considered what will happen if you buy people's hearts and minds in a big way after the beginning of spring? Do you think you have the ability to buy people's hearts to the point of directly cultivating the general trend and replacing the current Han Emperor like this guy? If you can't do that, it will lead to endless wars, which you want to see? ”

What Yan Zi said was the same as this guy to buy people's hearts, of course, referring to the beggars on the side.

People buy people's hearts to the end, and the upper position can be said to be the trend of the times and irresistible. And the Yellow Turbans can do this?

Obviously, this is not possible. Since he couldn't do it, he bought so many people. Anyone with a little bit of a brain knows how things will play out next.

The people who were bought by the various policies of the Yellow Turbans naturally became the supporters of the Yellow Turbans, and they were inseparable from the Han army, which eventually led to the continuous expansion of the scale of the war and the increasing intensity of the war.

Zhi Yun is not an ordinary person who only sees the person in front of him, he has enough intelligence, enough political vision, and the ability to judge whether what Yan Zi said is alarmist or good.

Yan Zi also knows that it is useless to deal with this kind of person, to be alarmist and exaggerated, what you want is to lay out the facts and be reasonable. It is to convince you of the big truth, so that you can think of these situations for yourself! (To be continued.) )
