Niu Jinxing, who closed the door and hid in the dormitory to study "Theory of Contradiction" and "Theory of Practice", half of it was to avoid the noisy debate on campus, and the other half was really fascinated by the content of these two books.

Although Su Changqing, the author of these two books, is a little-known scholar, Niu Jinxing feels that this person has a lot of hills in his heart. It's a pity that the writing of these two books is a little unfinished, and the more he reads, the more he feels that something is missing.

Niu Jinxing is actually correct in having such a feeling, although Su Changqing has read the original text of "Theory of Contradiction" and "Theory of Practice" written by the chairman, but after all, it cannot reach the point of memorizing it like a stream, and when the chairman wrote these two books, it was based on further philosophical research on Marxist-Leninist philosophical thought.

And in this era, not to mention Marxism-Leninism, even materialist philosophy has not yet become a mature philosophical school, and even the word materialism has not yet been created. Therefore, when Su Changqing wrote these two books, he had to delete some ideas that were too advanced, and just tried his best to retell the content of these two books with his own ability.

Therefore, compared with the original version, this Ming Su Changqing's version of "Theory of Contradiction" and "Theory of Practice" seems to be a little unfinished. Although these two books with white words and simple words became a compulsory course in various schools in the capital because of the emperor's order. However, they are not taken seriously by most people, because the ideas of these two books are really far from the way of the sages, and they do not seem to be included in the imperial examinations.

But for Niu Jinxing, who likes miscellaneous studies, reading these two books has made him gain a lot. In his view, these two books should not be used for learning, but should be used to guide work, and each time he studied them, he felt that he was very helpful. Niu Jinxing also became interested in the authors of these two books, and he wrote to the Daming Times several times, wanting to contact Su Changqing, who often appeared in the Times, and asked him for some knowledge.

However, every letter was like a stone sinking into the sea without a reply, which made Niu Jinxing can't help but start to doubt Su Changqing's true identity, he consciously collected articles and news about Su Changqing, but never found anything. However, he found an interesting phenomenon, every time this Su Changqing published an article, the policy decrees issued by the imperial court or the cabinet moved forward according to this proposition.

As far as Niu Jinxing is concerned, every time Su Changqing publishes an article in the Daming Times, it is more like he is shouting for the new policy of the imperial court and asking for directions, and this discovery makes him doubt Su Changqing's true identity even more.

When Niu Jinxing was reading a book, his brother Niu Jinmu came to him with lunch. Niu Jinxing brought his two younger brothers to the capital because of his lack of knowledge, so one audited at Yenching University, and the other was simply admitted to the Army Military Academy.

Niu Jinmu was the one who audited at Yenching University, and unlike Niu Jinxing, who studied every day after entering the university, this young brother was obviously more lively and liked to mingle with the student council members who liked to organize new activities.

While he brought lunch from the cafeteria for his brother, he also held a copy of the Ming Times and said to his brother in a fuss: "Big brother, big brother, this issue of the newspaper is really amazing, you should really go out and take a look, now the students in the school are talking about it, what about the article in the newspaper today?" ”

Niu Jinxing, who was interrupted from reading, raised his head and glared at his younger brother dissatisfied, and then took a bamboo skewer as a bookmark and sandwiched it on the current number of pages and put it on the bedside cabinet.

As he got up from the bed, he asked his brother, "Show me what happened?" I feel like it's very noisy outside today. ”

Niu Jinmu, who stopped the movement of cloth vegetables, gave the newspaper at hand to his brother, and said casually: "It's not because of the controversy between filial piety and women's morality, there is a person named Su Changqing in the newspaper today, I don't know if he is stupid or bold, and he actually openly accused the Book of Filial Piety and the Three Obedience and Four Virtues in the Daming Times as corrupt words that bind people's hearts, and a group of corrupt Confucian pseudo-sage words used to fool the people and cripple the spiritual shackles..."

Although Niu Jinmu felt that the two articles written by Su Changqing were really a bit extreme, he admired this person's courage very much, and in order to refute those arrogant scholars, he actually pointed the finger directly at the sage Jingyi and Renren Dao, which no one dared to question. However, he admired and admired in his heart, and criticized Su Changqing's remarks in front of his brother.

However, his brother, who had always asked him not to get involved in these arguments, became a little abnormal after listening to his remarks. Not only did he not approve him for saying well, but nervously looked at the Daming Times in his hand.

Niu Jinmu, who had set up the dishes on the square table, didn't dare to disturb Niu Jinxing's reading, so he could only sit aside and wait for his brother to finish reading the newspaper before starting. At this moment, he complained a little that he was talking too much, and he should have eaten lunch before talking to his brother about it, and now he is probably going to enjoy cold food.

When Niu Jinmu was deeply reflecting on himself, Niu Jinxing had already begun to seriously study Su Changqing's two articles, as his brother just said, this time Su Changqing's article pointed the spearhead directly at the banner of humanity held high by the scholars.

“… At first, I really sweated for the child, and only when I dug out a cauldron of gold did I feel relaxed. However, not only do I dare not want to be a filial son anymore, but I am also afraid that my father will be a filial son... I don't understand what such a thing as killing my own son has to do with filial piety. Tiger poison does not eat children, but as a father murders his children in the name of filial piety, is this considered filial piety? This is to trap the mother in unrighteousness..."

Su Changqing's criticism of the Book of Filial Piety did not comprehensively deny the content of the 24 filial pieties, but focused on criticizing the stories of Guo Ju burying children, lying on the ice and begging for carp, and satiating mosquitoes with blood, pointing out the difference between filial piety and foolish filial piety, and opposing the so-called foolish filial piety and foolish loyalty.

In another article, Su Changqing did not directly refute the theory of the Three Principles and Five Constants, but focused his arguments on criticizing women for being virtuous for not being talented, and advocating that workers are the cornerstone of social stability in the Ming Dynasty.

“… As a woman, you must have independent financial ability in order to have an independent personality...

As a child, from the moment he is born, his mother is the most influential person in his future life. Only a mother with an independent personality can raise a child with an independent personality and a healthy spirit...

Therefore, without a smart, excellent and healthy woman, there will be no smart, excellent and healthy mother, and naturally there will be no intelligent, excellent and healthy child.

If all my children are smart, excellent, and healthy children, then the future of Daming must be full of hope.

But if my children are timid, shy, sick and stupid, then what future will Ming have? ”

Niu Jinmu waited for a long time, but he didn't see his brother take his eyes off the newspaper, and couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Big brother, do you want to eat first?" The food was getting cold. ”

Niu Jinxing, who was awakened in thought, looked up at his brother, and said with some thought: "Ao, you eat first, I want to think about it..."

Niu Jinmu saw that his brother really didn't mean to move the chopsticks, so he reached out and took the chopsticks, planning to eat them first. But as soon as he picked up the dishes and chopsticks, he saw Niu Jinxing looking up at him again and said, "Don't be in a hurry to eat first, let me ask you, aren't you very familiar with the student union?" Can you introduce me to the person who manages the school magazine? ”

Niu Jinmu obediently put down the dishes and chopsticks and replied: "Yes, you can, but what do you want to see him, brother?" ”

Niu Jinxing dropped the newspaper in his hand, walked to the desk on the side, spread out the paper and ink, and said, "I'm going to write an article, and I'll see if I can ask him to publish it for me when the time comes..."

Niu Jinmu was still a little confused, but Niu Jinxing had already made up his mind and decided to use this controversy to make the last political speculation.

After reading Su Changqing's two articles, he immediately felt that this discussion, which originally belonged to the people, was probably going to rise to the struggle between temples soon.

And once the situation does change like this, the focus of the current debate will inevitably enter the emperor's field of vision.

If Jian was in the emperor's heart, even if the imperial examination ranking was not high, the emperor's gaze would often fall on him. Is there a more lucrative speculation in the world than this?

Judging from past history, no matter what kind of writing Su Changqing publishes, he will always be able to get out of being held accountable by the imperial court. Therefore, he planned to stand behind Su Changqing and invite the shout, not only to gain the emperor's attention, but also to use Su Changqing as his shield.

When Niu Jinxing was writing hard in the university dormitory, in the noble courtyard of the Ten Princes' Mansion, a small group of nobles were surrounding the Marquis of Fengcheng to talk about things.

“… Marquis Fengcheng, you should write to Your Majesty, now that all the turtles and crabs in the capital have crawled out, either someone is guarding the door of the disaster textile workshop to persuade those female workers to go home, or they are simply locked in their homes and not allowed to work.

Those sour Xiucai really didn't have a backache when they stood and talked, and they just asked us to close the door at every turn, or they had to go into the factory to inspect and see if there was any prostitution and theft in the factory, which ruined the atmosphere.

Damn, these turtle grandchildren are not good things, and it is their business to defeat or not corrupt the atmosphere. If our workshop stops for one day, it will be a loss of nearly 1,000 yuan..."

"I say, that's what you did for yourself. If you want me to say, just take this opportunity to go to Shaanxi and Henan to buy a group of homeless people, as long as you give them a bite to eat, they will be very obedient..."

"You're old and confused, aren't you? This is all a matter of the old yellow calendar, the displaced people in Shaanxi and Henan are almost settled down now, who can buy hundreds or thousands.

Besides, the spinning and looms of today are completely different from those at home, and the gap between skilled and unskilled workers is wide.

The workers that Lao Tzu poached from the Internal Affairs Office are better than those trained by his own family, and those homeless people who have never seen the world are okay to do rough work. Let them get on the machine, don't toss for three or five months, they can get started there.

Now a one-day delay is a loss of hundreds of yuan, and a delay of three or five months will make people not live..."

Li Chengzuo, the Marquis of Fengcheng, was dizzy when he heard this, and finally he finally spoke up and said to the people around him: "It's useless to write to Your Majesty about this matter, is it possible that Your Majesty can still send troops to pull those women out of the house?"

In my opinion, this is mainly to blame those scholars who are too idle and do not prepare for exams in the capital, but wander around to make trouble. We still write to the cabinet and let the court strictly manage them.

In addition, last year and this year, a large number of cotton fields have been developed on both sides of the Yellow River, and if the workshops in the capital are closed, will those gentry and landlords not be allowed to drink the wind? In my opinion, we should also contact them and write to the court together.

You can't let a bunch of rats spoil everyone's good deeds..."
