Wen Xianggong looked out the window and made a compassionate appearance.

After brewing enough emotions, he slowly spoke.

"Lord Wang, have you ever thought that for so many years, the old-school courtiers who oppose the change of the law have been stubble after stubble, endlessly, even if they know that they are dead, they will jump out and hit the stone with an egg? What's the secret? ”

Seeing such a serious Wen Yanbo for the first time, Wang Ningan also put away his laughter and scolding, and became deep.

"Changing the law has hurt the interests of too many people, and besides, changing the law wants to change people's minds, and for thousands of years, Chen Chen Xiangyin has not been so easy to change, even if it is a few decades, or even hundreds of years, there will be people who oppose it."

Wen Yanbo smiled and gave a thumbs up.

Erlang is really keen, but the old man feels that although the change hurts the interests, it also creates greater benefits...... Take this time as an example, as long as the Western Regions are opened, the territory of the Great Song Dynasty will almost double all at once, and there will be enough benefits to distribute, so there is no need to worry about this. The real killer is still on the thousands of years of Confucius and Mencius! ”

Wang Ningan was startled, he straightened his waist and listened to Wen Xianggong's high arguments.

Wen Yanbo was a little proud, and continued: "Erlang, think about it, over the years, what is your financial management technique and military training method, which one comes from Confucius and Mencius? From the old man's point of view, whether it is to recover Youzhou or take Hengshan, the methods you use are all left over by Guan Zhong, right? ”

Wang Ningan nodded, "Guan Zhong is indeed a generation of geniuses, his skills of governing the country and the method of fighting for hegemony have too much to learn from future generations, and I have only learned a little bit of the surface." ”

This is not Wang Ning'an's modesty, if you read the pipe carefully, you will find that even after two or three thousand years, the wisdom of the old gentleman still has reference value, and it can be used to develop the economy and carry out international games, and it is not outdated at all.

When it comes to strengthening the country and enriching the people, the hundreds of schools of thought should be the first to recommend Legalists, and among Legalists, Guan Zhong is the first person to open the school! You can imagine how powerful the old gentleman is!

"Wen Xianggong, the talent of Guanzi, unparalleled in the world, rare for thousands of years, but the Confucian scholars of the past dynasties have criticized Guan Zhongduo, and they are very rejecting the study of Guanzi!"

"That's their ignorance, their hypocrisy!"

Wen Yanbo waved his hand domineeringly, "Erlang, what is your purpose in supporting the drunkard, deciphering the Bamboo Book Chronicle, and restoring the rule of the three generations?" ”

"Naturally, it is to deduce the historical truth, to break the myths of the Confucian scholars from Confucius and Mencius down, and only by opening up the mind and letting go of the burden can we truly find the way to enrich the country and strengthen the army!"

"Well said!"

Wen Yanbo said with a smile: "It's just that the drunkard has only done half of it, although he has cracked the bamboo book chronicle, but he still doesn't believe it, and he has read books all his life, and he still has the same set of Confucius and Mencius in his bones, and he can't expect him to break Confucianism and unify the country." ”

At this moment, Wen Yanbo is like a saint surrounded by auspicious clouds and mist, and his every word is thought-provoking...... Take the example of the Bamboo Book Chronicle, which records that Shun usurped the throne and seized power, and the Confucian scholars of the past dynasties said that it was Zen Rang, do they believe in the Bamboo Book Chronicle, or believe in the Confucian classics of the past dynasties? Is it usurpation, or is it Zen concession?

In fact, once you enter into this controversy, it is tantamount to a preconceived admission that usurpation is wrong and should not be. No matter how much you debate it down, it doesn't make much sense.

Even if history is like this, what can it be?

Do you want to rub the rouge and whitewash the usurper?

Can you get by in good conscience?

If you want to maintain the identity of Emperor Shun as the Holy Monarch, you must erase this paragraph. is like Li Er, he is too close to the afterlife, killed his brother and brother, and launched the Xuanwumen Change, which is known to the whole world and cannot be hidden. No matter how much credit he makes, it is difficult to hide the defects of being in the right position.

Although the Six Arts have been established for many years, Ouyang Xiu has made unremitting efforts, but he has never set off a truly monstrous wave, and this is the reason!

After many years of development, the Tao of Confucius and Mencius has formed a complete discourse system and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Its core is the Ming monarch and virtuous ministers, who live in virtue and lose virtue, and the king is benevolent...... And so on the concept of pan-moralization.

When you argue with Confucianism, you often fall into the other party's discourse system from the very beginning, how can you get a bargain.

It is a bit complicated to say, a more obvious practical example, is the Ming Dynasty Wang Yangming's psychology, from the beginning, the impact of psychology on thousands of years of Confucianism is extremely huge, but in Wang Yangming's later years, he continued to revise, and brought the psychology back to the old way of the Confucian framework...... It's no wonder that the mind quickly disappeared later, and I couldn't jump out, so I could only pit myself!

Wen Yanbo said earnestly: "Erlang, let's just say that what you and I are doing right or wrong in front of us?" ”

Wang Ningan groaned: "For the country and the people, for the livelihood of the world, and for the Han family, of course what we did was right...... It's just that some methods are not bright enough and are easy to be realized! ”

"Hahaha!"

Wen Yanbo laughed wildly, "Erlang, what is the difference between your statement and those rotten Confucian evaluation pipes?" ”

These words were powerful enough, Wang Ningan shuddered, changed color in horror, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

That's right, Wen Yanbo asked well!

For so many years, I have always despised Confucianism and always hoped to change the way of Confucius and Mencius.

In fact, unconsciously, I also fell into the circle of Confucius and Mencius, and I didn't know it, what a shame!

Wang Ningan didn't dare to underestimate Wen Yanbo's wisdom more and more.

"Wen Xianggong, I still have a little doubt, the way of Confucius and Mencius is not all undesirable, I think we should take its essence and remove its dross." Unconsciously, Wang Ningan had already used a tone of inquiry.

Wen Yanbo shook his head, "Erlang, what you said may be right or wrong...... The old man doesn't argue with you, the old man just wants to ask you, Confucius and Mencius, the two saints, have said so many things, which ones are the essence and which are the dross? How do you choose? Is it still necessary to divide according to the standards of Confucian morality? Isn't that the same as going in circles when you do this? ”

"What does Wen Xianggong think should be done?" Wang Ningan humbly asked for advice.

"It's very simple, completely overthrow Confucius and Mencius! Set up another portal, a series of its own! Wen Yanbo said with confidence: "When it comes to governing the country, Confucius and Mencius are far inferior to Guan Zhong, why don't you let go of the successful model and learn from two down-and-out literati?" Is it simply inexplicable? ”

Wen Yanbo said with a smile: "We take Guan Zhong as the ancestor and sage, and take this "Guanzi" as the foundation, we can play at will, sway freely, and re-establish a system!" What we do in the northwest is for the people of the Great Song Dynasty and for the common people of the world, and this is right! We are morally perfect and do not need to be blamed! Those who go to open up the land and discover the wealth are the brave, they are the heroes of the Great Song Dynasty, whether they rob or seize, they are all for the good of the Great Song Dynasty, they should be, everyone should give them applause, they are real heroes, and they should not be blamed in any way......"

Wen Yanbo's voice echoed in the room, Wang Ningan shook his head vigorously, and finally recovered from the old guy's magic voice.

Understood, almost fooled!

Wang Ningan didn't think clearly why Wen Yanbo suddenly admired Guanzi and suddenly wanted to set up another door to overthrow the way of Confucius and Mencius...... But when he said this, he suddenly became enlightened.

In fact, Lao Wen is not as detached and amazing as he said!

Prospecting for gold and opening up will inevitably be accompanied by killing and snatching, with deceit, with anger and resentment, and with many crimes...... Wen Yanbo shuddered every time he thought of this, sweating through his clothes.

He wants to leave a name in history, and he can't leave a bad name!

But can he change?

No, I can't!

Because there is so much land, mountains of gold are waiting for him.

Not only Wen Yanbo alone, almost all the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty faced a problem.

For the sake of immediate interests, they betrayed what they had learned and betrayed the morality in their hearts.

The head and body are out of harmony, one to the left and the other to the right.

What to do?

Is it to give up interests and respect the morality in the heart?

Almost no one can do it!

Then all that remains is chasing interests, not caring about the name behind you, even if you are scolded by everyone, you will not hesitate!

But the literati with a good face are not reconciled.

As a conglomeration of civil servants and scholars...... After hard thinking and meditation, Wen Yanbo finally found a different way...... Since interests cannot be given up, and since morality is interfering with us, we might as well change morality, isn't it logical?

The morality of the past says that robbery is wrong, and the new morality encourages robbery; The morality of the past was to be happy with poverty, but the new morality is in favor of the acquisition of wealth...... All in all, all the concepts that restrict them from pursuing interests are all abandoned!

Thinking of this step, Wen Yanbo felt that he had been sublimated, completely sublimated, and he could really become a saint on the ground.

Of course, in order to achieve a knowledge, there must be a heritage.

Among the several ancient sages, he effortlessly found Guan Zhong.

There is no way, Guan Zi is the most pragmatic one among the hundred schools of pre-Qin!

Wen Yanbo decided to overthrow the way of Confucius and Mencius by affirming Guan Zhong, as long as all future generations are disciples of Guan Zhong, then he Wen Yanbo is the second sage, and he no longer needs to be criticized by any kind, he can let go of his actions, and some people applaud him, how good is this!

Wang Ningan guessed Wen Yanbo's despicable thoughts, and he suddenly remembered the so-called Renaissance and ideological enlightenment!

Good boy!

How similar the two are!

A group of robbers, having discovered the New World, began to plunder frantically, killing on a large scale, being ungrateful, and losing their conscience...... They did this, and they knew that they were wrong, so they created the Renaissance and whitewashed their banditry!

Tell the world that they represent the advanced, they represent civilization, they rob, kill, occupy land, exterminate the natives, it is all right, it is you who are backward, it is you who do not want to forge ahead, everything is to blame!

You might as well ask yourself, what kind of civilization progress can be made in the bloody and brutal primitive accumulation?

It's just self-deception!

Of course, with Wang Ning'an's unremitting efforts, the Great Song Dynasty opened the curtain of expansion first, and the keen Wen Xianggong also noticed that he wanted to whitewash his actions...... This is the so-called Song version of the Renaissance!
