Early the next morning, someone had already come to give an announcement, and everyone who had attended the defense conference went to the defense court. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info It turns out that the emperors of the Song Dynasty did not set up a dialectical institute, and in the hands of Zhao Yun, he greatly admired the science of science, but at this time the supremacy of Cheng Zhu's doctrine has not yet been established, and he still listens to the heads of the various schools, so he specially repaired this dialectical academy, and this year is the first debate conference, which is naturally very grand.

In history, when Zhao Yun was in power, Shi Miyuan as an auxiliary minister, monopolized the power of the court, Emperor Zhao Yun was actually just a puppet, in the original history when Zhao Yun ascended the throne for ten years, Shi Miyuan died, which deposed the history of the party, personally promoted Taiwan, clarified the rule of officials, rectified the finances and other reform measures, as for the later period, the government fell into the hands of Ding Daquan, Jia Yidao and other traitors, which eventually led to the demise of the country.

Li Xiang and a few others packed up and followed the people to the defense court. Li Xiang was quite excited, not because he participated in this debate conference, but because he heard that the emperor was going to come to listen to the debate in person, and Li Xiang was going to see the emperor again, so he naturally wanted to be excited.

When they arrived at the defense center, the officers and soldiers were heavily guarded, and all of them were searched to confirm that they did not have any weapons. When I entered, I saw a large group of people waiting in front of the hall. Li Xiang recognized at a glance the middle-aged man who was called "Brother Zhengzhuo" yesterday, "Brother Zhengzhuo" was surrounded by a group of people dressed as Confucians, and on the other side there was also a young man in white who was about twenty years old, and a large group of Confucian students in the same dress were also surrounded by him. From time to time, the two groups gave each other contemptuous looks, but they were both urbane people, and they would not move their hands.

In addition, there are some monks and Confucians, but these people are not as big as the two gangs just now, they are all scattered together, it is estimated that they are all small doctrines, the emperor in order to learn the head of the family, as long as it is a faction of doctrine, they are all invited over.

After a while, I heard only someone summoning me, "All those who participate in the defense, please come into the hall." ”

Lu Shiya and Li Xiang walked in with everyone, this hall is not small, dozens of tables and chairs are neatly placed, and the dragon chair has already stood on the high platform in front of it, which is specially prepared for the emperor.

The crowd had not been seated for a long time, so that the voice of the eunuch could be heard screaming: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Li Xiang hurriedly sent everyone to kneel, and when someone next to him hinted in a low voice: "Get up", everyone shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor's adulthood, long live, long live." ”

Li Xiangzheng was thinking wildly, and suddenly heard a familiar voice say slowly: "It's all flat." ”

Emperor Lizong also glanced at Li Xiang, but did not come over to speak, but just walked to his place.

Then the debate began, first some small schools talked about some of their theories, and some legends such as the beginning of turbidity, Pangu opened the sky, and Nuwa created people, but the versions were different, and naturally many schools evolved. Then there is the Buddhist doctrine of reincarnation, after several eminent monks finished speaking, they recited a Buddhist scripture, and Li Xiang was a little drowsy.

Suddenly, Li Xiang heard a loud voice and said: "Poor Dao Quanzhen taught Li Zhichang, and was appreciated by the emperor, since he came to participate in the defense conference, he also said a few words." ”

Li Xiang was taken aback when he heard this, looked up, and saw a white-bearded old man, who was about sixty or seventy years old, but he stood up straight, and had the air of a fairy.

Li Zhichang also talked about some Taoist theories next, Li Xiang didn't pay much attention to it, just thinking that Li Zhichang did have someone in history, but he didn't expect to meet him today, but he was much older than he imagined.

In fact, Li Zhichang in history, in addition to Taoism, his biggest deed is to write the Journey to the West in Changchun. This book is about his master, Qiu Chuji, Genghis Khan sent someone to invite him with an edict, and Qiu Chuji took eighteen disciples there. After three years and a journey of 10,000 miles, the 74-year-old Qiu Chuji finally met Genghis Khan in the snow-capped mountains. Li Zhichang always said: "To live forever, you must be pure in heart and have few desires; If you want to dominate the world, you must respect God and love the people. This speech was deeply appreciated by Genghis Khan, and he was called a "god". Under the influence of Qiu Chuji, Genghis Khan once ordered to "stop killing". Later, Qiu Chuji returned to Yanjing, was ordered to take charge of Taoism in the world, and issued an order to release more than 30,000 Han and Jurchen people who had been reduced to slavery, and rescued a large number of Han scholars.

Just as Li Xiang was thinking, the 'Brother Zhengzhuo' he had seen yesterday stood up and said: "In Xia Jin Zhengzhuo, my Guan school believes that the qi of the void is the origin of all things, and everything in the world is composed of qi. The chaotic qi makes up the universe, the everything we see, the so-called sun, moon, stars, and the earth we are in, and even ourselves, are all made up of the void qi. At the beginning of the universe, it was originally chaotic qi, and later it gathered or dispersed to form all things. The nature of heaven and earth comes from the void qi, and human beings exist between heaven and earth, which is also composed of the void qi, and our body is actually the same as the earth, the sun and the moon. The void qi determines the nature of heaven and earth, and the nature of heaven and earth determines the nature of human mind. Therefore, if we want to understand human nature, we must first understand the nature of the universe, and if we can perceive the mechanism of this vast world, we can naturally deduce the reason for the existence of all things and the laws of their development. ”

Before the words fell, I saw the white-clothed man just now stand up: "He Xuan is the great-grandson of Old Master He, Brother Zhengzhuo just said that all things are composed of the qi of the void, which can't help but seem a little mysterious. In fact, everything is reasonable, and only by studying things and following the principles of heaven can we be true, good, and beautiful. And it is human nature that destroys this truth, goodness, and beauty. As the saying goes, "the reason of existence destroys people's desires." Reason is the origin of all things in the universe, from different perspectives, he has different names, such as heaven, Tao, God, etc., and he is good, he will give goodness to man will become nature, and give goodness to society will become a rite, and people in the world are disturbed and crisscrossed by the nature of their own endowment from "reason", and society will lose its propriety, so if you can't restrain the expansion of selfish desires, you will deviate from the way of heaven, not only can you not become a sage, but you may also lose the world, so you must cultivate, return, and stretch the nature given by God, In order to reach the highest state of benevolence, at this time he has completely entered the truth, that is, the unity of heaven and man. If there is no intention, no necessity, no solidity, and no self, no matter what you do, you will not deviate from the way of heaven.

Someone next to him laughed, and Li Xiang heard a slightly hoarse voice and said: "In Xia Lu Qingfeng, the two of you have a difference in words, what is the universe?" What are all things? All of this is nothing more than people's perception of external objects, and people's thinking and consciousness determine their perception of the world. In the eyes of people, the so-called everything is what people think in their hearts. What we see every day, from small cars, boats, birds and beasts, to rivers, lakes and seas, to the entire earth, and even the stars in the sky, are all derived from each of our cognition of the world, as the so-called, my heart is the universe.
