Chapter 6 Xun Qing on Taoism

After the meal, Zhang Xiao crossed Erlang's legs, and used the dagger he carried with him to lightly split the bamboo tube used to wrap rice just now, and made a simple bamboo stick in three or two, without any scruples to pick his teeth in front of everyone, Zhang Xiao tilted his head and neck lightly, swayed from side to side, and joked to Youyou: Youyou, give me two strokes......

It's rare that Youyou didn't refute Zhang Xiao, and came to Zhang Xiao very obediently and massaged it according to Zhang Xiao's words. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Everyone has always understood Yoyo's tricks, and secretly sweated for Zhang Xiao. To everyone's surprise, Zhang Xiao asked her to pinch her shoulders, she didn't dare to beat her back, and she didn't dare to disobey at all.

Youyou seemed to look at Zhang Xiao with flattery, and asked softly and sweetly, and Zhang Xiao's body was crisp when she heard it. A cheap look of enjoyment, a life like this, a life of enjoyment.

"Ask, today you Brother Xiao and I, know everything and say everything." The hero is sad to pass the beauty level, and if you want to get a secret from a man, you must use a beautiful woman.

"Brother Xiao, what did you do from the bamboo tube just now?" When these words were asked, even Zhuo Qianya and Fu Bo showed serious expressions on their faces and listened carefully.

"Oh, the one you asked, where is it called a toothpick in us."

Toothpicks, also known as "chewing poplar wood" or "chewing poplar branches" in ancient times. In ancient texts, there is a phrase "enter the plate and chew poplar wood". The so-called "chewing poplar" means picking your teeth with a toothpick after a meal.

Zhang Xiao carefully explained the effect of toothpicks to the three of them, Zhuo Qianya, who was born in business, her eyes shone after hearing this, and Bing Xue asked smartly: "Then can we promote sales?" ā€

Zhang Xiao nodded in agreement, although the equipment production tools of this era are not strong, but such a simple item can still be made.

After a night of silence, Zhang Xiao, who was sleepy-eyed, was woken up by Zhuo Qianya, bathed in incense, and Youyou personally coiled his hair into a bun, and put on the white robe that had been prepared.

Youyou slapped Zhang Xiao's head with one hand and whispered to him to stop moving. After cleaning up, he said proudly: I didn't bury this girl's craftsmanship.

"Cousin, why did you come so early!" Wang Yanqing was taken to the palace by Ji Ning early and waited for Xunzi's arrival.

"Familiarize yourself with the environment and watch them walk in, and I like to see them walking." Ji Ning loves his cousin from the bottom of his heart, but what his cousin asks, he will answer.

"What do they look like when they walk?" Wang Yanqing asked blankly?

"The way they walk shows their personalities, and I'm used to looking at their pace, looking at their posture. Can you tell that they have a radical personality? Conservative? Is it impulsive or calm? Ji Ning said indifferently.

Before the words fell, there was applause, and laughter came and said, "Yes, that's right." ā€

Ji Ning and his entourage hurriedly congratulated their hands and said, "I've seen Lord Sacrificial Wine!" ā€

The sacrificial wine is the name of the scholar, and it is in charge of the affairs of the palace. Xunzi patted Ji Ning on the shoulder and walked back.

Xunzi is resident in the school palace, but he himself is also a very small number of preachers, and today it seems that the number of people is more than in the past. Yoyo complained and said: Let you hurry up, don't listen, do you look at the present?

Zhuo Qianya patted Youyou and shook her head. Follow the crowd to the palace of learning.

It didn't take long for the rumbling bells and drums to be heard, and the sound was deafening and incessant. In the main hall, hundreds of students from all schools of thought sat upright under it, and made a gesture with their shirts: Meet the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine!

The voice shouted, wave after wave, on the futon under the palace, Xunzi sat up, got up to return the salute, and after the ceremony, sat back in his seat. He said in a clear voice: The well frog cannot speak to the sea, and it is confined to the void; Summer insects can't talk to the ice, but to the time; Qushi can't speak to the Taoist, bound to the teaching! The words of the master and son are willing to be discussed with all the kings.

After saying this, he paused, gestured to Zhuo Qianya, and continued:

Human nature is evil, and its good ones are hypocritical.

The nature of today's people is born with good interests and obedience, so they strive to be born and give way to death; Born with disease and evil, obedient, so the thief is born faithful and perishable; Born with the desire of ears and eyes, with a good voice and lust, and obediently, so ** was born with etiquette, righteousness, literature and science. However, according to human nature and people's feelings, they will be out of contention, and they will be in trouble and violence. Therefore, there will be the transformation of the teacher's law, the way of etiquette and righteousness, and then out of resignation, in line with the literature and science, and return to the rule. From this point of view, human nature is clearly evil, and its good is hypocritical......

Xunzi's voice does not fall, the speech is clear, and where there is a pause, it is often quoted loudly, and the students cheer one after another: Cai!

Under the main hall, a stick of incense will come to the end immediately. And the Xunzi on the main hall has also come to the end: if you are with unkind people today, you will be deceived and deceived by those who hear it...... That's it!

Xunzi's words fell, and the students made a gesture again, and the courtesy fell. Zhang Xiao saw the student who spoke bluntly about Zou Zi last time, and bowed and said: Zhang Zuo, a student of Daliang, asked the master, and the offense was rude! Xunzi waved his hand to signal that it was okay, waiting for his counterattack.

Then he stepped forward and asked, "How is the Master compared to Mencius?"

Xunzi Zhengse said: I can't do it!

Mencius's words: Human nature is good, father and son are related, monarchs and ministers are righteous, husband and wife are different, young and old are orderly, and friends have faith. It is to influence the subjects with virtue and social harmony. But the Master's words? Man is not an animal, how can a beast be wheeled? Is it for the power of the rule of law alone?

After Wang Yanqing heard this, he turned back to his cousin and said: Cousin, this master clearly talks about the distinction between good and evil, but in fact he is talking about the policy of governing the country, does my cousin have a good countermeasure?

Ji Ning shook his head lightly and said: The law of governing the country can only achieve the great harmony of the world by loving the people and not attacking.

As soon as Zhang Zuo's words fell, he was besieged by the local students in Qidi, but all he talked about was the debate about good and evil in nature, and he sighed gloomily.

Zhang Xiao has been listening to their debate, and said in her heart: Isn't this just a simple dialectic? He was born in archaeology, and when he saw the famous Xunzi sitting in front of him, his plain heart was already excited!

Then he stood up and said, "The nameless student has seen the Master." Xunzi didn't say much, so he asked him directly: What do you think?

Zhang Xiao replied: The evil nature of the master and the goodness of Mencius are two sides of the same thing. They are the essence of things, and it is impossible to deny one and conclude that the other is correct, and look at both dialectically. The same is true for those who govern a large country, when they only rely on the doctrine of Legalism, in the end, the people are not afraid of the law, so why should they follow the law? The internal and external laws should be like this.

When he heard Zhang Xiao's internal and external laws, Xunzi really looked at Zhang Xiao in surprise, this is a remark that no one put forward?
