Chapter 483: Big News

Qin Mi was on the way from Jingzhou to Yangzhou when he heard a big news......

Wang Su, a doctor of the Ministry of Rites of Chu, found a relic of a manuscript engraved by Confucius himself near Jiangling!

Confucius came to the capital of Yingdu of Chu, which is now Jiangling City, which everyone knows, but ...... Why are manuscripts still left? Also specially designed to properly protect the "ruins" for future generations to open?

Is this a custom of the pre-Qin and Chu states, or is it a Confucian calculation?

In short, in the eyes of insiders, this inexplicable archaeological remains have found the manuscript of Confucius.

If that's all, it's not too much news, even if there is any suspicion, at most it is just muttering behind his back, the king of Chu wants to be "auspicious"......

However, shocking "operations" followed, and in Confucius's manuscripts, Confucian theories were clearly recorded from another perspective.

After reading, it was found that the meaning of "Confucius" in this manuscript is clearly to expound "benevolence loves others" and "advancing with the times......

The term "benevolence loves others" was proposed by Mencius at this time and extended, and Bai Xue was also under the sign of Mencius at the beginning - from the beginning of Bai Tu to write "At the beginning of man, nature is good", it is considered to be the great Confucianism of Mencius.

It's just that later Bai Xue became more and more biased, and was even criticized by some Confucian scholars......

However, the manuscripts of Confucius that have been discovered now clearly say that Confucius also recognized the idea of "people-oriented" during his lifetime, but he was subject to the times, so he put forward the doctrine of propriety and benevolence as the core.

At the same time, Confucius also believed that as long as later generations of Confucian scholars can uphold the "people-oriented" heart, they will be able to trace back to the source and better inherit Confucianism.

After Qin Mi learned this news, the whole person was stunned - old Confucian student, do you have too many question marks?

The reaction that accompanies this is naturally anger......

Unlike Wang Su's academic fraud in history, it doesn't take more than a thousand years to see through this time, after all, ...... This seems too fake, and the purpose is too clear.

I almost wrote a sentence directly on the cover: What the King of Chu said is right, seeing you pseudo-Confucian black Chu kings, I, the teacher of three thousand disciples, the founder of Confucianism, and the old Confucius who has been lying for seven or eight hundred years, can't help but come out to fan the King of Chu!

I believe you're a ghost......

"Does the State of Chu really want to use this to mess with the foundation of Confucianism and Taoism?" After Qin Mi learned the news, he questioned You Heng angrily.

In general, Qin Mi is still an old-fashioned gentleman who pays more attention to morality.

A friend once borrowed "Warring States Policy" from him - now in these years, except for the Chu State, the knowledge monopoly everywhere is very serious, and reading books mainly depends on borrowing, and if you can borrow books, it is the best friendship! It's normal not to borrow.

However, Qin Mi's reason for refusing the other party was very high, not only refused to lend, but also educated his friends, don't look at those things that are all conspiracy and calculations of the Zongheng family, when Confucius wrote the Spring and Autumn Period, he didn't refer to those miscellaneous books that did not conform to the etiquette system, don't read them......

It's just that judging from the records of Qin Mi's envoys and envoys in history, his people are sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed, and he is the most "vertical and horizontal family"!

You Heng still glanced at him with drooping eyelids at Qin Mi's questioning and said, "Mr. Qin, be cautious!" I think that this ancient document is very reasonable, Confucius is worthy of being a sage of his ancestors, who knew how to adapt to the time and put forward theories applicable to the pre-Qin period, but as long as it does not change at all, future generations will continue to adapt to the times!

It's like the Meng Xue after that, just like the Bai Xue of my Da Chu......

Moreover, most of the doctors in my Dachu Rite Department have recognized the authenticity of the documents, and then my colleagues in the Ministry of Industry will also analyze the preservation period of the items, which is really not fake!

However, your excellency's empty words denying the research results of my Da Chu are momentary gaffes or do you have any intentions? Does it represent your own meaning, or does it represent the meaning of the Marquis of Shu? You Heng asked directly to the general.

How can it be a weak heart, You Heng is very confident in this - whether the relics are true or false, You Heng doesn't know, but since it is "coincidence" with Bai Tu, then You Heng firmly believes that it is true, especially the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry have also endorsed it one after another, which is a clear signal.

On the contrary, Qin Mi was so choked by You Heng that she couldn't speak......

Although the "Foreign Affairs Office" of the Ministry of Rites, which is responsible for external affairs, and the "Moral Education Office", which is responsible for ideological and academic revision, are different departments, they are both affiliated with the Ministry of Rites!

If Qin Mi dares to oppose the authenticity of the ancient documents endorsed by the Ministry of Rites, he still wants to negotiate peace?

What's more, judging from the current posture, it is not a matter of the Ministry of Rites at all, but the entire Chu State is promoting this matter!

"Your Excellency...... That's a big deal. It's just an academic controversy, an academic controversy. After Qin Mi took a deep breath, he decided to focus on business.

After completing the final task and returning to Yizhou, after resigning from the government, it is not too late to write a book to set the record straight!

However, no matter what Qin Mi thought and what the "Qin Mi" outside the Chu State thought, the manuscript of Confucius excavated by Wang Su became the correct name for Bai Xue...... In other words, it has become the theoretical basis for Confucianism to be close to Baixue.

In Confucianism, Wang Su forcibly opened up this branch, also known as "Wang Xue", and quickly conquered the city in the Shilin of the Chu State.

The smoothness is even more than Baitu originally expected!

Before that, Bai Tu thought that there would be a "vicious war" in the ideological category, after all, Confucianism had a strong foundation in the Han Dynasty, and Bai Tu had not been criticized by the people......

However, with a slight change of thinking, Bai Tu also understands the reason why it is so smooth in Chu - Confucianism is originally good at serving the ruler, and now the situation in Chu is stable and the national fortune is rising, the former Bai Zhou Mu and Bai Da General are not absolute rulers, they can only be said to be the ruling class, and His Majesty the King of Chu is already a stable ruler.

Therefore, for the Confucian students of the Chu State, supporting Wang Su's "Wang Xue" is not only "for the Chu State", but also "for Confucianism".

The state of Chu is now destined to take "Baixue" as the core, which is not only a matter of personal preference of the King of Chu, but the core of Baixue, which can make the workshop go on logically.

Adhering to the "retro" Confucianism is not feasible in the Chu State, so the adaptability of Confucianism will also play a role at this time - whether Wang Su's discovery is true or not, but since "Wang Xue" can play a role in bringing Confucianism back to the mainstream, then it can be true!

At this time, Confucianism in the face of white pictures was no longer a conservative and rigid side, but a ...... Give full play to the characteristics of being close to the ruler and take the initiative to get close to the side - at least in the Confucian scholars in Chu.

Even Song Zhong, the great Confucian of Jingzhou, who had a very stiff quarrel with Bai Tu at the beginning, which caused him to be splashed with feces in front of the door, also went to check Wang Su's discovery, at first Wang Su thought that he was here to smash the field, but ......

Then Wang Su found that Song Zhong actually had a very sincere attitude, discussed the issue of "new discovery" with himself, and after returning home, he also began to write articles - although there was a slight difference with Wang Su, it was clear that the "new discovery" was a real and effective posture by default!

In fact, the mentality of "Song Zhong" is completely understandable, even if it is discovered in the future, it is the problem of Wang Su and Wang Xue, not the problem of Confucianism, let alone their own problem.

Bai Tu also read Song Zhong's article, and occasionally asked Zhang Chunhua about the meaning of one of the sentences......

After reading it, Bai Tu didn't care about the differences between Song Zhong and Wang Xue, although he refuted Wang Xue throughout the article, he was ...... No, a few points that fit with Chu Xue, Song Zhong accepts them all!

"Chunhua, help me find someone to summon Wang Shangshu." Bai Tu was noncommittal to Song Zhong's article, but asked people to call Wang Lang.

Zhang Chunhua has long been surprised by Bai Tu's literary literacy of the "former great Confucian", and there is nothing unusual to summon Wang Lang - after all, there is only one Shangshu surnamed Wang.

It didn't take long for Wang Lang to come to Bai Tu, and it could be seen that Wang Lang's hair was getting grayer and grayer.

First, it is Wang Lang of the Chengji world, whose age is more similar to that in the romance, he is already in his fifties, and secondly, he is ...... It is also the result of working for the affairs of the Criminal Department.

The Criminal Department not only offended people, but the new policy was even more complicated, Wang Lang was scolded the most among all officials, both inside and outside!

As soon as he saw Bai Tu, Wang Lang also began to instinctively report on the recent revisions to several major cases and several laws and regulations that he had been scolded for......

Bai Tu first stopped Wang Lang, and after letting him sit down, he said sincerely: "Wang is old after all these years of hard work. ”

Wang Lang was stunned when he heard this, first thinking that Bai Tu wanted him to resign, and he was anxious...... It's a little bit of a snicker!

However, immediately after Wang Lang reacted, if he wanted to change the book of the Criminal Department, it would not be so without warning, which made him even more cranky.

"Ziyong is in Jingzhou, and he hasn't been back for almost a year......," Bai Tu said of Wang Su again.

"King! Did something happen to the dog? Wang Lang was anxious when he heard this, and thought that Wang Su had an accident, so Bai Tu was so polite.

Wang Su is Wang Lang's eldest son, although Wang Su is also older than in history, but ...... For Wang Lang, he is not an old man, at least he is also a pioneer in late childbearing.

"No, everything is fine with Ziyong in Jingzhou, and I will also remember the contribution of Wang Lao and his son to the Chu State!" Bai Tu said.

Wang Lang also didn't react for a while, and he still had some doubts in his heart, he and his son didn't have any breakthroughs, and they just proceeded step by step, why did the king suddenly mention it so solemnly?

"When Ziyong's eldest daughter was born before, he was in Jingzhou, and he hasn't been able to see it yet, right?" The topic of Baitu changed.

"Ziyong is at the age of starting a career, and he should worry about the country." Wang Lang said with some pride.

Although he hasn't reacted yet, after all, Bai Tu is praising Wang Su Yes - in terms of his son, Lu Kang is envious, jealous and hateful to him all day long, and Lao Wang feels that he can float a little.

On the contrary, Zhang Chunhua, who was present on the side, guessed the meaning of Bai Tu a little!
