He opened the prepared manuscript paper and said: "This is my opinion, it may be right, it may not be right, please point it out, correct me, and forgive me for being young and ignorant and daring." ”

He bowed again.

It's okay to argue, don't attack me, I'm small, I don't understand anything, and I'm from a wild road. For the first time, Zheng Lang felt that his young body turned out to be a good thing! This is the first to say ugly things. But everyone didn't know it, and they thought he continued to be humble.

There are a lot of people, and it is not clear to hear it in the back, but fortunately, everyone is very quiet, Zheng Lang deliberately amplified his voice, and he can barely hear what he said even if he half-guessed.

The third uncle said: "Big brother, it's really good, so many people, they are actually very calm, I can't do it." ”

"He didn't lose his temper in the inner palace, what is there on this occasion, third brother, don't talk anymore, it's time to start."

The third uncle closed his mouth.

Zheng Lang opened the manuscript paper, in fact, he had been preparing for two days, and he could boast without manuscript paper, but that would be even more showy. This manuscript paper is just for example. began to read: "Taoism has "Lao Tzu", soldiers have "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and Confucianism is scattered in the scriptures, poetry is longer than poetry and music, easy is longer than hexagrams, books are longer than history, etiquette is longer than etiquette, and there are no special books on rationality. Then the Tao explained Fang Xing, the scriptures were listed, and the Confucian style was slightly extinguished. Therefore, Chang Li said, Zhou Dao declined, Confucius did not, fire in Qin, Huang Lao in Han, Buddha in Jin, Wei, Liang and Sui. ”

Just one head stunned everyone.

The meaning of this sentence is very simple, although there are many Confucian books, there is no book dedicated to the Confucian "truth", only the sentences, scattered in the Five Classics, but looking at the Five Classics, how many people specifically collect these prose sentences? Looking at the Spring and Autumn Period is nothing more than looking at history, looking at the Book of Rites is nothing more than looking at what rites, and there is a lack of a special book to discuss the principles of Confucianism, so after the Han Dynasty, Huang Lao Fangxing, Buddhism came to the east, and there were more people who believed in Buddhism. Because there are many scriptures and teachings that are devoted to doctrine for believers to preach, this is why it has been carried forward.

Isn't it simple?

Yes, but no one thought about this question before Confucianism flourished in the Song Dynasty. Even after his prosperity, he did not think about this seemingly simple question, so much so that the great Western philosopher Hegel said when he studied ancient Chinese thought: "Confucius is just a practical scholar of the world, and there is no philosophy at all in his speculation, only some kind and sophisticated moral lessons, from which we cannot get something special." ”

Reluctantly admits some Taoist things, but thinks Confucianism is worthless.

Just one sentence gave everyone a small shock.

Some Confucian students wiped their sweat.

It's not that there are no books that expound Confucianism, there are, but they have always been very fragmented, such as the Spring and Autumn Period, which is to talk about the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Note Yi is to talk about the Confucianism, but there has never been a synthesis of the various meanings of Confucianism to expound together.

Zheng Lang ignored everyone's stunned expressions and continued: "Si Ru is also? "Tao Te Ching" says, where misfortune and blessing depend, where blessing and misfortune lie, who knows the extreme! Is it not right? It is strange to be reinstated, and good is to be a demon. In order to prove that the yin and yang of heaven and earth are also transformed, the heaven and earth alternate day and night, the four seasons are reincarnated, and the yin is prosperous and the yang is the beginning of the yang, and the yang is prosperous and the yin is also coming. Therefore, the cycle of heaven and earth is endless, and the vitality is not extinguished. Lemma its de-Confucianism? Definitely. There is a saying in the "Department of Words", one yin and one yang is the Tao, the next one is good, the one who becomes is surnamed, the benevolent one sees the benevolent, the one who knows sees the knowing, and the people say that they use it but do not know, so the way of the gentleman is rare. Yu Zeng used two words to think about it. Confucianism is also born, so the flying dragon is in the field, the flying dragon is in the sky, and it is beneficial to see the adult. Taoists are also evasive from the world, so the void is good, and the surplus is evil. Don't you know? Yingshi does not seek or stay, and seeks to disappear again? Is it good to think that the Tao is like five generations? ”

Another thing is to maintain the orthodox status of Confucianism.

Both acknowledge the transformation between the virtual and the real, the yin and yang, or the details, that there is no eternal country, there is no eternal system, and there is a time when there is prosperity and decline, and there is also a time for prosperity and prosperity. Wait a minute. This is an objectively logical statement.

But the two are different, Confucianism deliberately pursues Sheng, leaving Sheng, so in the Qiangua, the dragon is in the void, called the hidden dragon in the abyss, do not use. From the dragon out of the abyss, it has been auspicious. When the auspicious place turns into decline, it is not beautiful, so Kanglong has regrets. However, Taoism deliberately pursues this negativity.

Compare the two, and score the superior.

Some of them didn't go into detail, but as long as you are a reader, there is nothing you don't know. Needless to say, this passage is only an outline of what the Commander-in-Chief wants to say today.

Once again, no one has ever said anything before!

Feng Yuan held a piece of hardboard under his hand, and wrote it down in cursive shorthand as he listened. Remembering this, I am somewhat embarrassed. I thought to myself, this kid really has some doorways.

Several officials beside Liu have already surrendered to Liu. That's congratulations! Liu Chu shook his head, don't worry, in the end, you congratulate me, that's congratulations.

Zheng Lang continued: "Confucianism is vast, and it can be understood, just to name a few. Let's talk about benevolence and righteousness. "Hexagram" said, the work of the sage of the past "Yi" also, will be the principle of the surname of the surname, is to establish the way of the sky said yin and yang, the way of the earth said soft and rigid, the way of the people said benevolence and righteousness, and the three talents and two, so the "Yi" six paintings into a hexagram, divided into yin and yang, overlapping with soft and rigid, so "Yi" six chapters. ”

The Book of Changes starts from the two hexagrams of Qiankun, reduces yin and yang, divides the eight trigrams, and divides them with two instruments, evolving into sixty-four hexagrams. But isn't it like Confucius commented on the Book of Changes, which divides the way of heaven into yin and yang, the way of heaven into softness and rigidity, and humanity into benevolence and righteousness. Not necessarily.

Even the sixty-four hexagrams of ancient times have been changed by King Wen of Zhou, and the sequence has changed. The "Yi" seen by later generations is not the change of Fuxi, nor the change of King Wen, it can only be said to be the "Yi" of Confucius.

Whether Confucius's Yi is right or not, Zheng Lang doesn't care, what he wants is Confucius's Yi, the elaboration of Confucian benevolence.

Some people faintly felt that there were another surprising words. Since ancient times, benevolence and righteousness have been one. Confucius's note can be used, here, benevolence and righteousness are opposites!

Liu Chu began to wipe his sweat with his sleeves, the kid is coming.

But who would dare to say that he was not right?

Unconvinced, I flipped through the "Book of Changes" by myself, and wrote it clearly in black and white paper.

Feng Yuan thought that he had read the Five Classics all over the world, and when he heard this, he was shocked. Brat...... It's not a small ambition.

But a few others opened their mouths to refute. Where did Zheng Lang give them a chance, and said: "This is not the first to be advocated, "Hanshu Literature and Art Chronicles" also said, the learning of the sons is like fire and water, and the destruction of each other is also born together, and the benevolence and righteousness, respect and harmony, on the contrary, they all become mutually beneficial. Yin and yang, softness, benevolence and righteousness are all relative and mutually reinforcing. If the universe is clear, the yang is shown in the light, and the yin is born in the bottom, which is called dry. Yin is in the light, and the yang is submerged, which is called Kun. ”

The two are opposites, but they are accompanied by each other, just like the things of the world, there is no perfect thing, there is no ten good and ten evil, Qiankun is the hexagram of the great yang and the great yin, the bright place is the great yang and the great yin, but the dark place breeds the opposite yin and yang, so the hexagram can be rotated. This is in line with the way heaven and earth work.

This explanation is indiscernible.

The fact is that it is possible that in a thousand years, this theory will continue to exist.

What's the matter if you're not convinced, you can only stare dryly.

In fact, the dialectical view of later generations has similar logical reasoning, but it will not be as mysterious as what is now being yin and yang. However, the quality of the surname is similar.

The eldest brother and the third uncle glanced at each other, and their eyes were a little surprised.

This is only the beginning, but it is not only about benevolence and righteousness, it is already equivalent to preaching "Tao", but it is not the Tao of Taoism, it is the Tao of Confucianism.

"What is benevolence, the Master said, love others. What is a lover? Zigong said that if he is able to help the people and can help the people, how can it be described as benevolent? The Master said, "Whatever is benevolent will be holy!" Yao Shun is still sick! ”

From the two chapters of Yan Yuan and Yongye respectively, what is benevolence, to love others, Zigong asked, if you can help everyone live a good life, can you say that it is benevolence? Confucius replied, it is not only benevolence, it is holy, even Yao Shun did not do it.

Of course, Confucianism also has many drawbacks, but it is not allowed to be repeatedly misinterpreted by future generations, and if there are many positive meanings, it will not be sycophant, and the surname can be better than the more negative Taoism, and it is also more practical for a country and a society.

"What is a people? Mrs. also said, the gentleman and the benevolent have a husband, and there is no villain and the benevolent. What a gentleman is, if he is not a scholar, he is divided by morality. Therefore, the master said, I want to be benevolent, and I am benevolent. I want to establish people, and I want to reach people. ”

Here, Zheng Lang beautified Confucius. In the eyes of Confucius, the so-called gentleman still refers to the upper-class figures. And there are similar remarks, what not to associate with people who are worse than yourself, not to associate with people who are worse than yourself, not to associate with people who are lower than yourself, and so on. The so-called self-desire to establish people, and the master refers to all the common people, but the first premise is themselves, the upper class, and then it is extended to everyone.

But in this regard, Confucius was not very confident, and he did not believe that the so-called villain could recognize "benevolence".

Some people may be aware of the loopholes in this sentence, but the times are different, in the Tang Dynasty, there are still gate valves, and there are also ministries that can be refuted, but in the Song Dynasty, loosely speaking, everyone is equal in a certain sense, that is, although the tenants are said to be very hard, they also have a certain meaning of personal freedom, which is not comparable to the Tang Dynasty, for example, the old lady was born like that, and the favorite concubine of the businessman's daughter of Song Renzong in the back, the background is also very cheap, but they are all glorious**. So I knew that Zheng Lang was beautifying Confucius, but I couldn't speak.

But when Zheng Lang said the next sentence, they were all in an uproar.

"Yang and yin, softness, rigidity, benevolence and righteousness are relatively compatible, mutual restraint is also born, there is love and hate! Hence the righteousness! ”
