Li Ran's words are suspected of knowingly asking. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info as a royal historian, it is impossible for him not to read "Da Shun Min Bao". This "Dashun People's Daily" has been clearly laid out as a private version of the Di Bao, and even some of the functions of the Di Bao have been banned. As the chief official of the Imperial Historical Observatory, after the Imperial Historian ignored the Imperial Historical Observatory, the Imperial Historical Zhongcheng has been serving as the chief official of the Imperial Historical Observatory, how could Li Ran not know the content of "Dashun Minbao"?

The horse's feet exposed by "Da Shun Min Daily" have long made people understand that this is the trick directed and acted by the little emperor himself, which is used to control the trend of public opinion. Li Ran not only had to read the "Dashun Min Daily", but also the "Shushe Daily", "Business Daily", and the latest "Hanlin Daily" and "Dengke Daily" had to read them one by one. Otherwise, where would he find the faults of the officials and the evils of society and criticize them?

Li Ran's deliberate difficulty, Zhang Zai didn't care at all, and said unhurriedly: "Don't dare, the grass people's Guan Xue has long been related to middle school scholars, Shen Yan, Hou Ke and other founding schools, and the grass people are just picking up people's teeth and wisdom." As for what kind of Taoism is preached, this Confucianism is orthodox in the world, and it has preached Confucianism and Taoism. ”

Li Ran sneered and said, "Confucianism, does it also teach people to bewitch the saints?" ”

Lu Chengqi was still listening to their arguments with a smile, but as soon as he heard this, he lowered his face and said secretly: "This old man Li is so uninteresting!" What kind of person is Zhang Zai, history has long been judged, why do you need to point fingers? ”

Zhang Zai was also stunned, he didn't understand how a good exchange between literati had evolved like this. There is a cloud in the Analects: "A gentleman is ashamed of his words and walks by his deeds." "It is said that the gentleman is ashamed of his inconsistent words and deeds, Zhang Zainai is a Confucian scholar, and the teachings of the sages know it.

When did you become a demagogue? Buddha has fire, Zhang Zai was an angry young man before, otherwise, he would not have seen a large-scale invasion of the Liao State, and gathered the righteous army, wanting to protect his family and defend the country. Although I have read through the books of sages and sages in the past few years, and regarded "The Mean" as a holy book, my cultivation has been good. But Li Ran's hat was buttoned down, and Zhang Zai couldn't stand it no matter how good he was.

So, Zhang Zai frowned, already faintly angry, and asked, "I don't know why Li Zhongcheng said this?" Zihou asked himself, he is a righteous man and a gentleman, when will he bewitch the saint? ”

Li Ran snorted coldly and said, "If you weren't bewitching the Holy Lord, why did you do that good show in front of the Holy Lord?" The old man has seen countless great Confucians, but you are just a newcomer, how can you dare to call yourself a sage? I'm not afraid of other people's jokes! ”

Zhang Zai understood, it turned out that he was a jealous and hateful "clean official", and with his intentions, he saved the belly of others. Knowing this, Zhang Zai did not defend himself, but said: "I don't want to set up a door for learning, I am based on self-cultivation with sincerity and sincerity, and I am responsible for governing the country and leveling the world." For Ze and the common people, there is no restriction on the door wall, regardless of faith, aiming to turn the world into a great harmony and educate all the people to become saints and sages. What Your Majesty said, to establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to continue learning for the saints, and to open peace for all generations, I believe that this is not only Your Majesty's wish, but also the main purpose of my study. ”

Li Ran never believed it, if everyone can become a saint and a sage, where is there any need for a king? In fact, it is also true, Confucianism is like this, those who believe naturally believe it, and those who do not believe it naturally do not believe it. Just like the Gong Doctrine of later generations, the West does not believe in it, but it still exists.

According to the type, it can only be said that Li Ran is a realist, and he only sees the evil side of the world. Zhang Zai, on the other hand, is an idealist, and he believes that all people can be educated. The fundamental conflict between the two is that neither of them believes in anyone's doctrine, because this is a question that is too philosophical and too profound for non-great wisdom and sages to answer.

When Li Ran heard this, he scoffed, but educating the people is the purpose of the founding of the Great Shun, and he never dared to oppose it in front of Lu Chengqi, but said: "Open your mouth, how to educate the people to become saints, tell me about it?" ”

When Wang Anshi heard this, he seemed to be inspired. Without waiting for Zhang Zai to reply, he interjected: "Explaining the meaning of the scriptures and educating the scholars is in line with the law of King Sheng; The declining world falsely accuses the people, and the private school is chaotic; The essence of Confucius and Mencius scriptures was lost after the "Qin Fire" (the fire of Afang Palace, released by Xiang Yu), and the chapters and verses were drowned in people's hearts, drowning in the wonderful way of the scriptures and righteousness, so that heresy was rampant; If pre-Qin Confucianism can be restored, it will be able to educate all people. ”

Wang Anshi is such a bunch, Li Ran can't think of it, and Zhang Zai can't even think of it. In fact, in the official history, Wang Anshi's Jinggong Xinxue and Zhang Zai's Guan Xue have a lot of connections. Both of these doctrines are inherited from orthodox Confucianism, and their vision is not limited to Confucianism. It was also through Buddhism and Taoism, and mutual confirmation with Confucianism, that Zhang Zai slowly formed his unique thoughts.

Wang Anshi, on the other hand, also read through the Tao Te Ching and Zhou Yi, from which he obtained the laws discovered by the ancient sages and further extended them. "From the Han Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, the source is immersed in depth. Da Shunxing, and the cultural relics are prosperous, but I don't know the principle of virtue and life. Jiefu worked hard for a hundred generations, chasing Yao Shun for three generations, and entered the gods through the unfathomable yin and yang of day and night. If you can start the meaning of morality and peek at the end of life, then all the people will be happy. Jiefu is not talented, and the first book "Miscellaneous Sayings" is tens of thousands of words, trying to find the way of the ancient benevolent people and finding his moral life. If we can teach all the people to pre-Qin Confucianism and Taoism, so that 'benevolence, righteousness, and courtesy' can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, why worry that all the people will not become holy and virtuous? ”

When Li Ran heard this, he almost blew his beard and glared in anger. I thought that this middle-aged man with a white body was a helper, but unexpectedly, it was also a wolf's ambition, so he took this argument and preached his doctrine. In his heart, he secretly blamed Lu Chengqi for not knowing people, and he actually sent such a villain to such a sacred place as Guozijian, and insulted the sages of Kong.

Lu Chengqi didn't know that since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, the doctrine of the sages and sages Confucius has always been the supreme position in the Central Plains. However, Mencius, as one of the most important Confucian masters after Confucius, has not been widely recognized for a long time. Some Confucian scholars often regard Mencius as one of the sons of the Warring States Period, or refer to Xun and Mencius as such, and even put forward some criticisms of Mencius's doctrine.

Mencius can be called a sub-sage, or the credit of the king Jiefu in front of him. It's just that in this time and space, thinking that he was born in a family, he couldn't participate in the imperial examination. In this case, it is natural that there will be no unfairness in doing so, and Yasheng Mengzi will not be established.

Li Ran listened to Wang Anshi's words and said angrily: "A faction of nonsense, a faction of nonsense!" The rumor of the Ram Master (Dong Zhongshu) is not Confucianism? Xun Mencius's saying is too biased, how can it be called holy! A bunch of nonsense, a bunch of nonsense! Your Majesty, the minister begs Your Majesty not to listen to such fallacies again, and to drive these two people out of Jingzhao Mansion, and to return Confucianism to innocence! (To be continued.) )
