Hui Niang's attitude is resolute and does not allow others to question it.

In addition to admiring Hui Niang's temperament, Zhou couldn't help but feel a little ashamed...... Hui Niang's ambition is so noble, she puts herself in her shoes and asks if she can't do it, the taste of loneliness and old age is not comfortable.

In addition to writing to tell Ninghua's hometown the news of Shen Xi's promotion, Zhou also wrote to tell Shen Xi in the capital about Huiniang's situation.

However, Zhou didn't let Hui Niang write a letter this time, because she felt that Hui Niang's personality had changed a lot after she became the champion in Shen Xi, I don't know if it was her delusion, but she always had to avoid stimulating this good sister.

At this time, Shen Xi in the capital was still preparing to deal with Emperor Hongzhi's staged assessment of the crown prince Zhu Houzhao, and at the same time preparing to save Xie Pi and others who were enchanted by their hearts.

Xie Pi's invitation was regarded by Shen Xi as the result of being poisoned by psychology.

Young people like novel knowledge and want to change the times in their own way, which is roughly the same as Shen Xi's idea, but the problem is that the study of mind is not the current mainstream thought, even if it is to be respected, it should be subtly changed by the summary of the mind of the predecessors, and cannot directly conflict with the science.

Shen Xi also understood this for two generations, but Xie Pi may not be able to understand it, so after repeated consideration, he decided to come forward to stop Xie Pi from playing with fire**.

On the second day of the first month of August, Shen Xi went to the place where the pulpit was located to attend the meeting according to the invitation sent by Xie Pi.

This academic forum is set up in an ancient temple in the western suburbs of the capital, called "Dahua Temple", it can be seen that the incense is not very vigorous, the temple looks dilapidated, fortunately, the courtyard is empty, you can sit down a lot of people, the people who come to participate in the academic forum need to prepare their own futon cushions, but more people are admiring it, there are two or three hundred people in the bustle, in the crowd, standing in the open space around the pulpit and waiting.

Shen Xi didn't expect Xie Pi to spread the study of mind so widely in the capital.

"I heard that no, it seems that there is Hanlin spreading the study of mind, and I have to listen carefully to it today, saying that it may not be helpful for the township test next year."

"I heard that this is still an official of the Zhan Mansion, but I don't know which one?"

"No matter who it is, in short, if you can start a knowledge, you must be a person with outstanding learning...... Moreover, the officials of the Zhan Mansion often serve as examiners for the Shuntian Mansion Court Examination and the Township Examination, and if they can make friends because of this, it will be a blessing! ”

"Look at what you said so cheesy, but there is a sentence you are right, this person must have a real talent and real learning, what kind of person do you think that Xie Gongzi is, he can humbly ask for advice, this person must be in a high position in the court...... Oh, isn't it Xie Ge himself? ”

Shen Xi entered the Dahua Temple in civilian clothes, the pulpit was set up in the open space in front of the main hall, and stood in the noisy crowd for a while, hearing all the speculation of the people who were lecturing today.

Where do these people come to learn to figure out the mind?

It's simply clinging to the powerful!

Knowing that Xie Pi's father was Xie Qian, a scholar of the Cabinet University, he thought that even if this lecturer was not Xie Qian himself, he must be a famous Confucian family with outstanding status in the DPRK.

"This is Lord Shen?"

Shen Xi listened in the crowd for a while, and the more he listened, the more unbearable he felt, and when he was about to find Xie Pi to stop him from opening the pulpit, a respectful-looking subordinate squeezed through the crowd and came over to salute Shen Xi.

Shen Xi looked at the visitor and asked, "Do you know me?" ”

"Adults and nobles forget things, you have been to the house many times, the villain is a servant of the Xie Mansion, where do you not recognize you? It's the young master who asked me to wait here in the main hall to wait for your boss, please go to the backyard and talk......"

Shen Xi nodded, just about to find Xie Pi, this time it would save trouble.

Bypassing the main hall, in front of the Bodhisattva Hall in the apse, there are people offering incense at this time, Shen Xi fixed his eyes, but it was an old lady dressed gracefully and luxuriously bowing to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Xie Pi stood next to him, respectfully to the old woman, and there were several maids and healthy women standing next to him, and their expressions were also very dignified and solemn.

Judging from Xie Pi's attitude, this old lady should be his mother, but I don't know if it is his biological mother Xie Xu or his stepmother Xie Lu.

But she saw a lively figure dangling her little head beside Xie Pi, and saw the majestic temple hall and the sculptures of various Bodhisattvas and Arhats, which made her very happy, it was Xie Pi's niece Xie Hengnu.

At this time, Xie Hengnu was dressed in men's clothes, smiling happily, where was the solemnity of praying to God and worshiping Buddha? Judging from her relaxed attitude, it shows that this old woman is not her own grandmother, so Shen Xi can basically predict that the woman in the hall is Xie Lu's family.

"Finish early, don't be out for too long."

When Xie Pi helped Xie Lu out of the door, the old woman said to Xie Pi with a loving face.

Although he is not his own son, but in the end he is the son who passed to her name, and he wants to provide for her in old age, Xie Lu's family treats Xie Pi as his own, which makes people admire the mother's kindness and filial piety.

Shen Xi didn't step forward, and saw Xie Lu's accompanied by Xie Pi and Xie Hengnu out of the door of the apse, and he just walked to the front of the Buddha Hall, and heard the footsteps behind him, Xie Hengnu ran over panting, looked at Shen Xi happily, and asked, "Seventh brother, is it you?" ”

"Don't be rude to Mr. Shen!"

Xie Pi walked over and scolded softly...... Perhaps reluctant to teach a lesson, his tone was not very tough.

Xie Hengnu listened to the words of this second uncle very much, and knew that he could leave the house all thanks to the help of his second uncle, if he was not honest, he would never have a chance to come out and walk around in the future, let alone go to such a crowded place.

I haven't seen each other for more than half a year, and Shen Xi has a bit of intimacy when he sees Xie Hengnu...... Xiao Nizi has grown a lot taller, but the innocence on her face is no different from before, and her face is filled with a smile as bright and gorgeous as the sun, bright and lovely.

Even Shen Xi was infected by this smile.

"I'm afraid that Mr. won't be able to spare time, just when Mr. comes, I don't need the students to go out and talk to those people, since listening to Mr.'s previous teachings, the students feel that they know very little about the study of the mind, and it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance." Xie Pi was humble, and he didn't have any shelf in front of Shen Xi.

The prime minister's family is still a seven-grade official, but this son of the prime minister's family is approachable and gives people a feeling like a spring breeze, no wonder he is so popular in the capital. However, Shen Xi didn't appreciate it, shook his head and said: "The theory of mind I proposed is still incomplete, and rashly taking it out will only make people laugh." ”

Xie Pi said a little unconvinced: "How come? Sir, have you seen those people outside, they are all here to learn from the heart......"

Shen Xi told Xie Pi the gossip he had heard outside before, Xie Pi looked gloomy when he heard it, he originally thought that his preaching of the mind was fruitful, and this academic forum could come so many people, proving that this theory does have vigorous vitality, but only at this time did he know that these people were just here to join in the fun and cling to the powerful.

In these years, there are no celebrities, and the most famous ones are those famous Confucians in the Confucian academic circles.

If people outside know that the person who came to the academic forum to give a lecture this time is only the new champion who was awarded last year, although he is now working in the Hanlin Academy and the Zhan Shifu, he may not only be disappointed at that time, but also criticized the psychology that was recognized before.

When a science is born, it is easy to be attacked because these theories can be regarded as absurd. From the standpoint of materialism, even Shen Xi himself felt that subjective idealism had many undesirable points in psychology.

Unlike Wang Yangming, a master of psychology, Shen Xi only regarded psychology as a shortcut to quickly become famous and establish a sect, rather than a career.

In fact, both science and mind have their own reasons, and both have their own shortcomings.

The starting point of science and psychology is different, and many times it is the public that says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, and the positions are different and the views are very different, and there is no question of who is right and who is wrong.

Xie Pi said with some embarrassment: "Sir, there are so many people outside, and many of them are close friends of students...... What should I do? ”

Shen Xi said: "I still have to talk about it, but it's not a lecture, but to remember Mr. Baisha who just passed away." ”

"Mr. Baisha?"

Xie Pi was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he realized who Shen Xi was talking about...... This person was a well-known thinker, educator, calligrapher, poet in the Ming Dynasty, the founder of the Jiangmen School, and made outstanding contributions to the development of psychology. In February this year, Chen Xianzhang died of illness in his hometown, which caused a lament in the literary world, so the death of the Fang family is a great loss to the Confucian academic community of the Ming Dynasty.

Shen Xi nodded heavily: "Mr. Bai Sha has devoted half his life to teaching and educating people, and the content of his lectures is mainly based on Zhu Zi's science, but some of the content involves the study of the mind, we should not use our own tone to say, but use Mr. Bai Sha's theory to convey a thought, so that it can be more acceptable." ”

Xie Pi hesitated: "But ...... But...... I don't know much about Mr. Baisha. ”

Shen Xi thought to himself, I know that you don't understand, isn't this ready for you?

Shen Xi took out a manuscript from his arms and handed it to Xie Pi: "You have read it roughly, memorize the sentences, and then take it out and say it as ......."

Xie Pi didn't react for a while, he had never had any experience in giving a speech, he just came to give a lecture according to the gourd painting scoop, and he wanted to take turns with a few friends to talk about his views on psychology, just like the Wenhui, there was no fixed speech. Now that there are so many people from outside, it is obviously not possible to go up and talk about it casually, and there must be a logical speech to support this forum.

"Sir...... You...... Have you read Mr. Baisha's book? Xie Pi hastily read the manuscript in his hand, and couldn't help but be surprised to see Shen Xi quoting many of Chen Xianzhang's thoughts and remarks.

Shen Xi nodded, when he was preparing for the township examination and the guild examination, he had read many contemporary anthologies and had a certain understanding of various schools. Of course, he judged the merits of the ideas disseminated by various schools of thought by the ideas brought by the previous life, which was much more objective and fair.

Chen Xianzhang's academic attainments were well-known in the Ming Dynasty, and a few decades later, the imperial court issued an edict to build the Chen family ancestral hall in Baisha, and gave the forehead couplet and the portrait of the sacrifice. The forehead said "Chongzheng Hall", and the joint said: "The Tao has been taught by Confucius and Mencius for 3,000 years, and the first branch of Shao Cheng Zhu has been learned." Later, the Wanli Emperor ordered him to worship the Confucian Temple, according to the research in the Lingnan area of the historical figures, can be enshrined in the Confucian Temple, only Chen Baisha is a person, so there is "a person in Lingnan", "Lingnan Confucianism" reputation.

Xie Pi was immersed in the apse to read the manuscript and deepen his memory, at this time some of his acquaintances had come to him, and many of them had seen Shen Xi when Xie Pi held a literary meeting last time, and they all came to salute Shen Xi.

"I have time to discuss the content of the mind with my husband......"

These people have great respect for Shen Xi, and this should be the representative of those young people who spread the idea of Xinxue as Xie Pi said, and they really want to learn, not speculate.

For those who want to learn, Shen Xi will naturally teach, but for now, he has to send people from the outside.

Hearing that Shen Xi gave Xie Pi a speech, these people all gathered around, wanting to see what kind of profound thoughts Shen Xi's book was, and they were inspired by it.

Xie Hengnu's pretty little face was full of incredulity, and seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she slipped to Shen Xi's side, and asked in a low voice, "Seventh brother, why does my second uncle call you sir?" ”

Shen Xi was asked, Xie Pi studied mind with him, and he was a backward in the scientific field, plus he was Hanlin at the top of the imperial examination pyramid, so it was natural to call him Mr., but how could these be explained to a little girl?

Looking at the girl's innocent and eager eyes for answers, Shen Xi couldn't bear to refuse, so he could only reply casually: "Your second uncle learns knowledge from me, and we belong to mentors and friends." ”

"That's right."

Xie Hengnu lowered her head and thought about it, obviously she didn't understand Shen Xi's words, but she was still very happy, and when she raised her head to look at Shen Xi again, her bright and moving little face was full of admiration: "I have never seen anyone other than my grandfather, I can make the second uncle admire me so much, seventh brother, can you teach me too?" ”

"What are you going to learn?" Shen Xi asked.

Xie Hengnu didn't want to reply: "It's what Seventh Brother taught to my second uncle." ”

The little girl felt that the second uncle she admired before admired the study of mind so much, it must be profound knowledge, and these knowledge were taught by Shen Xi, she wanted to learn a little from Shen Xi, so that she could be in the limelight in front of the second uncle.

Shen Xi shook his head with a smile and said, "I told you, you don't understand." ”

When Xie Hengnu heard this, she was a little unhappy, her mouth pouted slightly, and her delicate little face was full of grievances, but she was quickly relieved, and said expectantly: "Then the seventh brother will teach me something I can understand, I used to beg the second uncle to teach me, but he was very busy, and now he ignores me......

Shen Xi could see that Xie Hengnu didn't want him to teach anything, but wanted to find a playmate...... This is probably the nature of children!
