Xiangguoji Temple.

At this time, on a vacant lot in the north of the temple, I saw more than 500 scholars divided into two factions, sitting cross-legged, facing each other, there were old and young, and even some senior members of the court, even the retired old horsemen were involved, and the atmosphere was quite strict, which could be said to be tense.

It can be seen how harsh the consequences of Li Qi's words were.

This can be said to be the grandest debate so far, and it has also pushed this public opinion war to the top, otherwise Cai Jing would not have arranged it to be held in Xiangguo Temple.

This debate has also made Cai Jing's fame a lot, and unconsciously, he has become a very special person among the two hundred schools, as if he is the contractor of this debate.

And the two factions in this debate are Confucianism and Moism.

Confucianism is naturally biased towards idealism, advocating the cultivation of one's body first, and then the Qi family leveling the world, and pursuing spiritual sublimation. After Mozi's death, Moxue has abandoned Mozi's concept of heaven and ghosts, and closely linked materialist philosophy and science, and put forward the concept of "righteousness, benefit." Famous assertions.

To say that Confucianism and Moism are actually a debate between idealism and materialism.

The venue was also surrounded by people, including hawkers, monks, Taoists, and craftsmen and farmers, most of whom also sat cross-legged and listened carefully without making a sound.

Because of debate, of course, it is to show your good side, who will talk about your own badness. Then, of course, what the onlooker absorbs is the most essential knowledge. This is also a great benefit for the people. For this reason, the imperial court also issued an order to Xiangguo Temple, which was opened every day during this period of time.

I have to say that a debate conference of this scale can be called a grand occasion, and it is difficult to see it again since the Spring and Autumn Period, because after the Han Dynasty. Confucianism began to flourish, while other schools of thought gradually weakened. Now that he has finally reappeared in the world, putting aside those interests, this has made the scholars of the world very excited, and they like this kind of activity very much, rather than watching how the Heavenly Hand Guanyin swallowed the Nine Turns Golden Pill.

Anyway, this is for the literati. It was a sudden literary feast.

Of course, it was said that it was sudden, but in fact, someone was manipulating it behind the scenes.

And these two masterminds behind the scenes were also in Xiangguo Temple at this time, and they were in a second-floor high attic on the left side of the site.

These two are naturally Zhao Kai and Li Qi.

Without either of them, this debate would not have been possible.

Zhao Kai stood in front of the window. He also listened very carefully to the heated debates of the scholars below, sometimes nodding, sometimes contemplative, sometimes smiling, and Li Qi on one side. I yawned because these scholars were too profound. It's not that their arguments are profound, but what they say is too ancient, after all, it is a debate conference, and it must be quoted from the classics, after Li Qi listened, he had to think for a long time before he understood the meaning, as a science student, he really didn't have the talent in this area, and gradually dozed off.

After a long time, Zhao Kai finally retracted his gaze, nodded frequently, and said: "Listening to such a debate, it is really better than reading a book for ten years, if they can do what they say, if they can do what they say, my Great Song Dynasty can stand for a thousand years and become a great cause for all generations." ”

Li Qi was slightly stunned and said, "Your Majesty, I agree with the first half of what you said, but I think it is difficult to do what you say." ”

Zhao Kai sighed and said, "I also know this." As he spoke, he glanced at Li Qi and saw that this guy seemed to have just woken up, so he deliberately asked, "After listening to it for so long, I don't know which side you agree with." ”

Sweat! You're sincere, I just woke up, I didn't listen at all, if you hadn't asked me to come here, I would still be at home with the children. Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, you know, my mind is still at the stage of counting money, and I haven't evolved to such a high level yet. ”

Zhao Kai snorted and said, "You are less modest, your casual words can cause this uproar, is this something that ordinary people can do?" ”

It's just a business ploy, you know? Li Qi smiled and asked, "I don't know if the emperor is supporting you?" ”

Zhao Kai didn't think about it, so he said: "Of course it's Confucianism." ”

"Huh?"

Li Qiden was stunned.

Zhao Kai smiled: "Are you curious, why did I promise you to say that and let you set up the Peerless Award?" ”

Li Qi blurted out, "Isn't it because of my excellent eloquence?" But as soon as he finished saying this, he felt that something was wrong, although this was true, but when he said it, he was a little too arrogant, and his face looked a little embarrassed.

Zhao Kai said angrily: "Of course not, no matter how good your eloquence is, can you still convince others not to be emperors?" ”

The reason why Confucianism can appear and flourish in the Song Dynasty is because today's Confucianism is perfectly integrated with political interests and has become a means for rulers to rule the people.

It seems that I still think too highly of myself. Li Qi said curiously: "I wish to hear the emperor's high opinion." ”

Zhao Kai said: "In the Spring and Autumn Period, hundreds of schools of thought contended, and countless literary circles became famous, and Confucius was just one of them, but in the back, Confucianism gradually stood out among the hundred schools of thought, and the rest of the schools weakened, do you know why?" ”

Li Qi simply said: "I don't know." ”

Zhao Kai said: "Its practical words from Sage Kong can summarize this. ”

"What?"

"Threesome, there must be my teacher, choose the good ones and follow them, and choose the bad ones and change them."

Li Qi frowned, seemed to understand a little, and said, "What does the emperor mean?" ”

Zhao Kai smiled slightly: "In the process of growing up Confucianism, we continue to absorb the strengths of other schools and discard their shortcomings, which is also a characteristic that other schools do not have. Confucianism can already be said to be inclusive of all rivers, which is why a hundred schools of thought have been overthrown. I respect Confucianism, so I have always agreed that Confucianism is orthodox. ”

Li Qi frowned and said, "This sounds like a star-sucking **?" ”

"Heart-sucking?" Zhao Kai was stunned.

Day. I haven't even written about this heart-absorbing**. Li Qi sighed and explained: "This heart-absorbing ** is a kind of practice for cultivating internal strength that I newly came up with for the novel. As he spoke, he explained the heart-absorbing ** aside.

Zhao Kai pondered for a moment and said: "It sounds a bit similar, but in fact, it's not, your heart-absorbing ** is stealing other people's skills, and its practice is very shameful." This is completely different from Confucianism. ”

"What the emperor said is extremely true, so I plan to beat the person who created the zào exercise into the cult organization."

Li Qi flickered casually, and said: "But what makes me curious is, in this case, why does the emperor still approve of my hundred schools of thought?" ”

Zhao Kai smiled lightly and said, "This is very simple, prosperity must decline." ”

"Prosperity or decline?"

"Not bad!" Zhao Kai nodded and said: "Today's Confucianism is no longer invincible in the world. This also led the Confucian students in the world to be unenterprising, stubborn in their thinking, and even abandoned the essence of the top level of Confucianism, which also made Confucianism begin to change, becoming just a tool for some people to fight for more profits, in order to consolidate the position of Confucianism. They also discarded a lot of the knowledge they had previously learned, and the fact that this weapon was only for the country, which is not what I wanted to see, and you should know this best. I'd rather lose this throne than let my people of the Great Song Dynasty be ridiculed and ridiculed. I want to recreate the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, and even more than that. ”

Li Qi couldn't be clearer about Zhao Kai's ambitions, and said: "Does the emperor want to use this to spur Confucianism? ”

"Spurs?"

Zhao Kai shook his head with a smile and said, "If that's all it takes, I won't have this idle effort." I want to completely change the current Confucianism, let it return to its roots, return to the original way of Confucius and Mencius, and once again complete the collection of hundreds of schools of thought, and help my Great Song Dynasty climb to the top. You have a saying that is very right, competition and panic can make people progress, for the country, for learning, I hope that through the rise of a hundred schools, the attack on Confucianism, so that today's Confucian students, take a good look at themselves, reflect well, correct some of the wrong ideas of today's Confucianism, and return to orthodoxy.

Moxue can make the country strong, your economics can make the country rich, and there are many, many more, and I hope that Confucianism can absorb the strengths of these schools. Therefore, I will never intervene in them, just let them unfold freely, if Confucianism has the last laugh again, it will prove that what I said is not wrong, and the Confucian students have also completely woken up, picked up the most precious things in Confucianism, and achieved tolerance and tolerance; If Confucianism loses, it can only prove that Confucianism is no longer suitable for the present, and I don't want this kind of Confucianism. ”

Li Qi frowned slightly, and said, "Forgive me for daring to ask, isn't the emperor afraid that this will affect your dominance?" ”

Zhao Kai laughed and said, "Afraid? No matter how terrible these things are, can he have the iron hooves of the Jin Army, no matter what school it is, if even the safety of me and my people cannot be guaranteed, can I still expect it to maintain my dominance? For fear of slapping himself with his right hand, he chose to let someone else beat him, which is simply a big joke, and I am afraid that the Buddha is not so merciful. ”

He is not wrong in what he said, now the rise of the Jin State, the weakening of the Song Dynasty, the entire Song Dynasty is in danger, the country is dead, what kind of knowledge do you talk about, if you don't seek change at this time, once the Jin soldiers come, don't Confucianism, even Tianxue is useless.

Li Qi shook his head with a smile, gave a thumbs up, and said: "The emperor is the emperor after all, and it is much farther for us laymen to see it, just based on what the emperor just said, it is not impossible to become the first emperor of the ages?" ”

Zhao Kai rolled his eyes and said: "There are just you and me here, there is no need to say such things, the first emperor of the ages, which first emperor of the ages have you seen who almost did not become a prisoner." ”

Li Qi shook his head and said: "No, no, no, I'm definitely not a sycophant, this--if I say it wrong, I ask the emperor to bear with me, just don't hear it." ”

Zhao Kai said disdainfully: "You dare to run to beat me for a woman, do you dare not say anything?" ”

Sweat! You're embarrassed to say that I, you can run around and beat me for a man, and I'm for a woman, that's even more reasonable, but it's good to forget about this kind of thing early! Li Qi wiped the sweat and said: "I'm really sorry, your Majesty, you also know that in that year, I was dealing with Jin Bing, and unconsciously I was contaminated with their vices, forgetting that in addition to his hands, he also has a mouth." ”

In and out of these words, they are full of sarcasm on the barbarism of the Jin people.

Zhao Kaile said: "Although I accept this reason in my heart, Wanyan Zongwang doesn't just have a pair of hands!" Say whatever you want. ”

It seems that doing what you like is the essence of sycophancy. Li Qi muttered to himself, and said: "I think so, throughout history, all incapable monarchs usually want their people to become ignorant and ignorant, so they imprison their thoughts, and rule with themselves, but really capable monarchs hope that their people can become wise and be able to distinguish between right and wrong, which can be said to be the embodiment of the king's self-confidence."

A monarch who does not have the confidence to manage the country well, he is afraid that his mistakes will cause dissatisfaction among the people and lead him to overthrow his regime, so the more stupid the people are, the better they will be deceived by him, and they will work hard, but if he is a monarch who is really capable, confident and has the idea to manage the country well, he will not worry about this, because he can make the people have enough food and clothing, live and work in peace and contentment, but he hopes that the people can be sensible and know what is right and what is wrong, so that they will not be deceived by the evil words of others. Therefore, to judge whether a monarch is a wise ruler or a faint monarch, it is necessary to see whether his people are ignorant or wise. ”

This can be said to be two extremes of thought, one uses brute force and the other uses wisdom.

But then again, although brute force is simple and crude, it can be used in the fastest time, at the lowest cost, and with the greatest results, but the disadvantage is that the staying power is not enough, you are always so pressed, and sooner or later it will collapse.

It's up to you how you choose, of course, it also depends on your own ability, do what you can.

Zhao Kai pondered for a long time and said: "Although there is a lot of knowledge in this, what you said is very reasonable, and it also benefits me a lot!" Saying that, he smiled again: "Li Qi, you are really my Wei Zheng." ”

Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Please, I'm more of a person than Wei Zheng." ”

Zhao Kai ha: "Yes, you have to be stronger than Wei Zheng." ”

Li Qi reciprocated Li Dao: "The emperor is also stronger than Li Shimin." ”

Zhao Kai hurriedly shook his head and said: "If you say this now, it will only make people laugh, so let's leave it to future generations to evaluate." ”
