There is nothing wrong with this sentence on the surface, but if it were placed in the 21st century, many people would applaud it. I am a Confucian student, but I not only read Confucian books, but also read hundreds of schools of thought, and Zheng Lang also said something similar. It's not going to be like that.

Not only did I read hundreds of schools, but I also read some miscellaneous books, and when I saw the peasants and female workers, I wanted to go up and interrogate them, and reflect on them from theory to practice. Then remove the shortcomings, retain the strengths, and know the way.

Isn't that big-minded?

Indeed, as soon as this statement came out, it happened that all the people of the Song Dynasty turned out many apocryphal scriptures and knocked them to the ground one by one.

But at that time, there were also many people who felt uneasy, and they didn't know what was wrong, so they had to say that he wore the clothes of a saint and practiced his family law, and even mainly the law of the family, but only said that he had hit the surface. Remember, this is the 11th century, not the 21st century.

In fact, while the Song and Ming dynasties were reducing the power of the prime minister, they were also weakening the imperial power. Sometimes, the emperor has power, but he does not say that one is one and two is two, and the symbolic meaning gradually exceeds the practical meaning. What everyone needs is an emperor to maintain this order, this rule, as for who is the emperor, it doesn't matter, as long as he has a legal surname and does not cause turmoil in the country, the minister will immediately approve it.

But you can't go far. What constitutional monarchy, what capitalism, what republic, the appearance at this time will inevitably cause greater trouble.

Including some doctrines.

"I once said that raising the middle and opening peace for all generations, have you ever read it?"

"Read."

"Why do I say it's not?"

"There are many mistakes in the scriptures, Xie Yuan also pointed out, Zheng Xie Yuan said similar things, and he can't worship all the remarks of his predecessors."

"There are many misunderstandings, and it is far from me and Uncle Ouyang Yong pointing out that point, but I can't say this sentence, how many books are there in the world, just look at the miscellaneous books to know where the avenue is? How big is the world, not to mention the party, Tubo and Khitan, let's say that our Song Dynasty, the south and the north, the customs are different, how big can a person's eyes be, how many people can he see, how many voices can he hear? Flip through some books and talk to some people, and you can understand the way? ”

“……”

"I am very much in favor of the combination of reading books and practice, and what I call Confucianism is also to return it to its original and put it in practice, which is the original meaning of the master, and use his knowledge to govern the country and save the people. Yes, the first king is different from the later generations, and the way of the first king cannot be used for all the future generations. But what kind of people know the way the world needs? The way I have realized is only self-cultivation, and I have not yet come up with it, and what is the world? ”

"But somebody has to do it."

It's a very demagogic remark again. You also protect yourself, and he protects himself, what about this country?

Therefore, Zheng Lang threw out Wang Anshi's famous sentence precisely to check his heart's surname.

Twelve years old, a dispensable age, if you wake up late and your heart has not grown, you can teach a lesson, and you should repay the little emperor again. If the heart surname grows up, and you have a cheat, you may not have a way to teach. Don't forget, when he first changed the Fa, how many people persuaded him, there were half of the teachers who were kind to him, and there were brothers of his own, but who could stop him?

As a result, Zheng Lang was very dissatisfied, this kid "woke up".

"Let me ask you, why did Uncle Ouyang Yong deliberately say when he was analyzing the Book of Changes, "Yi. The "Dictionaries" is not made by a saint, but a great biography in the early Han Dynasty. He also said that those who study the scriptures have a great tradition, and they cannot be abolished? Respect the ear! The wisdom of the predecessors can be supplemented by the later generations, and it does not necessarily have to be a saint. Remember, this is an addition, not a downfall, if everything is overthrown and used to govern the country and save the people, it will inevitably be subverted, and if you are bold and reckless, what will be the result? The perfection of this country's system has also been gradually improved bit by bit on the basis of its predecessors. If you don't have the heart of reverence and fear, you either practice Legalism, which is not what I want. It's either deviant, or even more so than I like. Not to mention respecting teachers. What else can be understood! Go thou shalt go. Uncle Song, prepare a horse, send him back to the capital, if his father leaves the capital, send him directly to Jiangning! ”

Isn't it mysterious?

But at the level of Zheng Lang and Wang Anshi, it is not mysterious at all.

This is the real view of a leaf and know the autumn, if the heart surname is not stable and can be taught, in order to reduce some troubles in the future of the Song Dynasty, Zheng Lang can teach. The heart surname is stable, especially once Wang Anshi's heart surname is stable, even if Confucius comes, he may not be able to teach it well.

Xiaoshizi heard it, but he was also confused.

But he was very clever and couldn't let Zheng Lang send him back, once he sent him back, there was no chance, and he bowed down and said: "If you are late and know your mistakes, you must respect your teacher." ”

As he spoke, he knocked on the ground with his head, and knocked loudly.

The eldest lady couldn't stand it, so she hurriedly helped him up and complained to Zheng Lang: "He's still young, what do you know, weren't you more stubborn when you were a child?" Don't scare people. ”

Looking at Xiaoshizi's head again, these few knocks were really loud, red and swollen, and said distressedly: "Silly boy, don't listen to him, the Zheng family is my master." ”

The Zheng family is your master, but you can't teach me knowledge, and you beg Zheng Lang with pity with your eyes.

"It's not that I don't teach you, it's that I don't have time to teach you studies. The second is that the Tao is different. Chen Shou once said that during the Three Kingdoms, everyone talked about Zhuge Liang's literary color, why did many beautiful essays in the Three Kingdoms annihilate the dust, and Liang Yibiao will be passed down through the ages? Without him, one is loyalty, and the other is prudence. My chest is also big, and my ambition is also far away," this is the first time Zheng Lang admitted that he also has some lofty ideals, but said: "But although I am suspicious of my predecessors, I am even more trembling on thin ice when I study my studies. I am not a master, I don't choose people to teach work, and I don't have the ability to do it. Therefore, the Tao is different, and it is not conspiratory, let alone the transmission of teachers! ”

We are not all the way, don't worship me as a teacher!

The eldest lady was soft-hearted, Zheng Lang had no choice, and went back to the backyard after speaking.

But let this stubborn husband have no mood at all, can't read, can't paint well, and is not in the mood to play the piano, grandma, why are we targeted by this little fierce man?

As soon as she walked around the house, Jiang Xing'er said, "Zheng Lang, come and see." ”

Pulling Zheng Lang out of the courtyard, where Xiao Shizi stood, his hands were in his sleeves, and his head drooped slightly, this was the standard disciple etiquette. Standing under the sun, regardless of sweating profusely, he performed this discipleship and didn't move.

He's basking in the sun, and a few girls don't know what to do.

Zheng Lang was even more confused, and said, "You come in and sit." ”

Pebble walked into the house and sat down.

Zheng Lang looked at him with his eyes and mouth, but he couldn't sit still, and got up from the chair, and as soon as he stood up, Xiaoshizi also stood up. didn't speak, didn't dare to speak, for fear that Zheng Lang would bury the pit and wait for him to jump down. But if it goes on like this, how can Zheng Lang stand it?

Zheng Lang was helpless by him, and finally said: "Okay, I can promise you, but there are a few conditions." ”

"Please sir."

"The first condition is that the future title cannot be called Mr. Later or Late, if it is called, it will be called Brother Tai, Xie Yuan, or virtuous brother, or official position."

"It's not...... Respect for teachers and respect ......"

"You don't come much, the reason why I do this is because I don't want to accept students, the age is too young, and I only do academic exchanges."

"I don't dare."

"If you don't dare, you can go back."

“…… Here. ”

"The second condition, I will ask Uncle Song to drive you to Fengxiang Mansion to see Fengxiang Mansion Yin, and by the way, bring a letter to his third son for me."

"Fengxiang Mansion?"

"Well, but on this trip, you not only brought a letter to the prefect of Sima for me, but I will also explain what happened in my letter, and his family is not you and me. He is a descendant of Sifu of the Jin Dynasty, with a rich family, and in order to study with peace of mind when he was a child, he once gave hundreds of thousands of dollars of property to his uncle and uncle. ”

This is also a beautiful thing, but Zheng Lang suspects that most of these uncles and uncles took advantage of Sima Chi's loss of his father when he was a child to embezzle Sima Chi's family property in disguise. It may be that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, but even so, Sima Chi's family property far exceeds that of the Zheng family, not to mention the Wang family.

And this person is upright and has a very official reputation, when Cao Yu died unjustly, it was this person who first advocated and defended Cao Xianggong. In terms of family seniority and learning, Sima Prefect made me feel very frightened. But in this line, I asked you to invite his third son, Sima Guang, to come to Zhengzhou together, and everyone will accompany each other to learn and progress together. Speaking of this, Zheng Lang shook his head again. There is no choice but to come to an acid-base neutralization, so that this pair of enemies has grown up together since they were teenagers, conservative learning radical, radical learning conservative, plus his own moderate, maybe it can help the country.

But this is also walking a tightrope, and if he doesn't get it right, he will be in big trouble. Hence the latter condition.

"I'm afraid that I don't have enough power to write a letter, so I have to rely on you to lobby, if you can't do it, I'll send you back." Don't come to toss me, go toss Sima Chi.

"Whoa." Xiao Shizi puffed up his chest firmly and said.

Although Sima Chi has an official reputation, so what, now that Zheng Jieyuan is famous all over the world, studying together, I am afraid that Sima Chi will also be tempted. Besides, the Zheng family has a good heart, and the family property is also available, so they will not wronged the third son of the Sima family.

This one is more certain.

"But not only to persuade him to come, I also have one condition, in the future, everyone can only argue, not argue, including entering the court as an official in the future, so as to save embarrassment."

"Zheng Jieyuan, I know, be respectful and listen to you."

"It's not to listen to me, it's to communicate with each other, don't make noise, but it's not for you to do it, and let the third son of his family come to Zhengzhou, and at the same time agree to this condition, this is the most difficult place. If you can't, go back. ”

When the two get along, most of them will quarrel with Wang Anshi, but this Sima Guang is also not a master to be messed with, yin and yang are weird, and he shows it with one hand, which is extremely powerful and unguardable.

Xiao Shizi thought for a while, and heard that this young man seemed to be smart since he was a child, so he didn't know what Zheng Lang's intentions were for being so cautious, but he could still do it himself, and said, "Let me give it a try." ”

And then he said that he would go, and he was very urgent. You have to get this thing done, otherwise you will always have fifteen buckets in your heart, seven up and eight down.

Seeing his hot appearance, Zheng Lang was also rubbing his head, and at this moment, he finally realized Liu's mood at some point.
