Zhang Li has thought countless times about how to "transform" - or how to "influence" the incomparably powerful scholar class in the late Ming Dynasty.

A lot of YY literature is nothing more than opening a few schools, raising their arms and shouting, all the intellectuals of feudal society are brainwashed, and then accept political concepts such as "democracy" and "republican".

This-

Absolutely impossible scenario in history.

If we start to explain from the "unity of knowledge and action" of the "mind science" of the great Confucian Wang Yangming, it will definitely have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort!

The core of Confucius's set is "benevolence" and "propriety", and its main content is: benevolence loves others, and self-denial and reciprocation.

I have to say that when Confucianism developed to the Ming Dynasty, Confucius had already been offered high by the scholar class - whether it was the high-ranking cabinet chief assistant or the prince of Qipin County who "worked thousands of miles as an official only for money", he neither "loved others" nor "self-denial", and "the gift of recovering the Zhou Gong" was even more impossible, and "receiving gifts" was almost the same......

The most profound influence of Confucianism in this era is Zhu Xi's set of "preserving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires".

And the "study of mind" proposed by Wang Yangming, who was born in the Zhengde period, happened to be not quite the right way for Zhu Xi's set.

To explain the respective theories of Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming, I can't finish one or two hundred thousand words, just talk about it briefly.

The difference between Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming is actually in "sex is reason" and "heart is reason", but this thing is not mysterious, and it can be made clear in the vernacular.

Zhu Xi talks about nature and reason, believing that human nature is good, but we will gradually form many prejudices in the process of life. Including subconscious biases, such as "I'm not good-looking", "I'm useless", etc. The whole thought and action of human beings starts from these preconditions, and at the same time produces many negative emotions. It blinds people's eyes and affects people's actions.

These prejudices are not human nature, not heavenly principles, but human desires, habits, and these things that Zhu Xi wants to destroy. He regards these things as the walls in people's hearts, and people should strive to tear down the walls in their hearts, and the way to tear them out is human nature, which is the principle of heaven.

In short, Zhu Xi was on the demolition team.

Wang Yangming does not talk about sex is reason. He speaks of the heart as the reason. What he meant was, didn't I tear down the wall, I just stood here and demolished it, and nothing else?

The wall is dead, but the man is alive, and we walk around the wall and move forward in the same way.

On the surface, walking around the wall is a detour, but walking is faster. Because you've been standing there stupidly tearing down the wall, tearing down one side and walking for a while, although you take the straight road, but it takes time and effort. Perceptibly. In Wang Yangming's opinion, that detour is the real straight road, the wall is there, you just don't hit the wall. Go around and tear him down with you, and the result is the same: they all go from the front of this wall to the back of this wall.

Zhu Xi's point of view is. As long as we move forward, we will always encounter a wall; Wang Yangming's point of view is. As long as we move forward, we will always find our way.

Zhu Xi was a royal scholar, while Wang Yangming, like Confucius and Mencius, did not cater to the regime.

Zhu Zi fixes your thinking and rigidizes people's thoughts, and his apprentice is a Zhuzi disciple at a glance; However, Wang Yangming is a living learner, advocating the emancipation of the heart, which is determined by the heart, and Wang Yangming's disciples are generally difficult to see.

This is the right tension in the mind.

Because Wang Yangming's doctrine can have endless explanations -- even if the final tension is explained as "capitalism" and "communism," it is not unusual. It's just a coat of Wang Yangming's "heart study"!

"Clothing" is the most important thing that "influences" the scholar class!

And all this is explained from Wang Yangming's "unity of knowledge and action".

Mr. Yang Ming mainly explained from a philosophical point of view, and the tension needs to be explained as "linking theory with practice, and engaging in industry to save the country!"

In ancient times, everything was low-quality, only reading was high, but the tension had to change its life against the sky and lead the future industrial revolution!

Of course, it's too early to say all this now, and Zhang Zhang needs to slowly brainwash Chen Zhengcao and Gu Youfeng step by step.

Zhang Zhang glanced at the two of them, and had already made up his mind: if these two people who had read the books of sages were "fooled" by themselves, there would be much less resistance to the implementation of industrial statehood in the future......

However, this is not an overnight thing, and you need to take your time.

Zhang Zhang glanced at Chen Zhengcao and Gu Youfeng, and said slowly: "What I did in Tuanshan Fort is precisely to promote Mr. Yangming's concept of unity of knowledge and action!" And now that the new deal of Tuanshan Fort is beginning to take shape, and it is thriving, it was suddenly framed by the villain......"

Without waiting for Chen Gu and the others to react, Zhang Zhang continued: "The road is long, I will go up and down to seek!" For the sake of the new policy of Tuanshan Fort, it is not a big deal to go to Zhou Yanru after being wronged. ”

After a pause, Zhang Zhang said again: "Who is Zhou Yanru, how can you not know it?" ”

Zhang Zhang is not a fool, and it is naturally impossible to tell Chen Gu and the others about using the strange battle situation in Liaodong to help Zhou Yanru recover, after all, it is a matter of confidentiality...... Now it is not 100% certain that Chen Gu and the others will have the same heart as themselves, it is better to keep an eye on them.

As for the future, Zhang Li is very confident that he will turn Chen Gu and the others into "his own people"!

Chen Zhengcao was in awe when he heard this, he stood up, bowed to Zhang Li, and said loudly: "Brother Zhang, is he interested in being the second Mr. Yangming?" ”

Gu Youfeng was also a little excited, and said sneeringly: "Brother Zhang wants to carry forward Mr. Yangming's mental learning?" Emulate Mencius and carry forward the Confucian teachings of Confucius? Confucius and Mencius, without the development of Mencius, the doctrine of Confucius and the sage could not be known to the world! ”

Zhang Li's eyes deepened, and after a long silence, he also stood up.

Zhang Li's face flushed slightly, glanced at Chen Gu and the others, and said loudly: "In the past, Song Zhangzi had a saying - to establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to continue to learn for the saints, and to open peace for all generations!" ”

This is a famous saying said by Zhang Zai, a great Confucian in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to take it as his motto.

After a pause, Zhang Zhang continued: "The so-called sage, how can we talk about it? However, after thinking about it, if you can do the four sentences that Zhang Zi said, you are the real sage! ”

Chen Zhengcao stroked his palms and said, "Okay! A good one to establish a heart for heaven and earth, a life for the people, a continuation of learning for the saints, and peace for all generations! ”

Gu Youfeng was also a little excited for a while, he was more upright, not particularly good at words, and the whole person was stunned - obviously deeply touched by the tension's words.

Chen Zhengcao on the side was different, his mind was more lively than Gu Youfeng, and he was so impressed by the tension at the moment.

Chen Zhengcao's mood couldn't calm down for a long time: this Nima mixed with Zhang Li, he will be called a "sage" in the future, won't he be famous for eternity? !

Some people value fame, some people value profit, but in fact, they are all the same thing. Being famous is naturally beneficial, and for the class of scholars, the temptation of "fame" is obviously higher than "profit"!

Zhang Zhang threw out such a killer feature that can "make a name for itself" and maybe "go down through the ages" in the future - "carry forward Mr. Yangming's theory", needless to say, Gu Youfeng needless to say, even Chen Zhengcao, who is quite deep in the city government, was moved!

Yes, the Donglin Party flies and fights for a lifetime, just for the word "fame and fortune"!

However, I am afraid that most of the Donglin Party members have left a bad name in the history books, but a bad name, how can it be compared with the "name" of tension?

In the VIP private room of Dongjiang Building on this day, while Zhang Li, Chen Zhengcao and Gu Youfeng "talked about life", they faintly incorporated the two into their own system - well, follow Zhang Zhang and devote himself to realizing the ideal of "unity of knowledge and action"!

……

More than half a month has passed since the last spring snow in Shenyang City, and new branches have emerged from the willow trees in the city, and it seems that winter has passed.

In the Chongzheng Palace, Huang Taiji, the Great Khan of the Jin Kingdom, had a somewhat gloomy face, and was looking down to think about something important.

Fan Wencheng, who was standing with His Royal Highness bowed, felt a little uneasy in his heart, and his entire back was already soaked.

Although there is still a charcoal stove in the Chongzheng Palace, it is only spring now, and it is not comparable to the hot summer season after all, and the fear in Fan Wencheng's heart can be imagined!

Huang Taiji sighed heavily, and Fan Wencheng immediately "shook his spirits" and bent his waist at a ninety-degree right angle......

Fan Wencheng viciously cursed Zu Dashou in his heart, and in the end, he even cursed the "rebels" in the mountain fort of the Ning Yuan Guard Regiment!

Damn, can't you just make a fuss a little longer and hold on for a month?

The salary was settled so quickly?

What a bunch of useless stuff......

Fan Wencheng secretly glanced at Huang Taiji, and seeing that he was still pondering, he couldn't help but wonder: The Great Khan didn't speak for half an hour, could it be that he was wondering if there was a countermeasure in the "Book of War" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?

Fan Wencheng pursed his lips, and his thoughts drifted a little far-

Just a few days ago, news came from Guangningwei that it seemed that Ning Yuanwei's "rebels" had been pacified by the Ming court - well, it should be, and the supplies from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou City were constantly being transported into the city.

At that time, Li Yongfang, the commander of the Han Eight Banners, still wanted to sneak attack, but Zu Dashou blocked it with heavy artillery, and the Han Eight Banners could not approach the city of Jinzhou.

After all, the Han Eight Banners were only used as a suspicious tactic before, and they did not bring siege vehicles and other heavy siege cover equipment, relying only on human lives to fill the cannons, even if it was the Han Eight Banners, the Great Khan was reluctant to let them die in vain.

Therefore, when the Great Khan got the news, he immediately made a decision - withdraw his troops!

Cake sellers!

At the beginning, it was a "suspicious plan" offered by himself, but now it has become a waste of money and food, and it is in vain -- how can this be explained?

Fan Wencheng gasped, and suddenly felt that "Jurchen Zhuge Liang" was not so easy to be!

Isn't that what it is now?

If this Nima is not careful, the image of this official in the heart of the Great Khan will be greatly reduced...... (To be continued.) )
