Uncle Li put his hands behind his back, glanced at me and Kong Yingda with burning eyes, and saw that there was no show of concession on both of our faces, so he smiled, took a square step, paced to a bench and sat down, and shook his front placket in a chic manner: "Hehehe, what a coincidence, the two Aiqing, but at the same time they sued each other, okay, I am okay today, just listen, who of you is right and who is wrong." ”

There were many scholars who visited and toured on the side who also heard the commotion here, but when they saw the murderous Ouchi guards, they naturally didn't dare to approach, but just stared at them in the distance.

At this time, Old Man Kong cleared his throat and opened his mouth: "Lord Fang's words are really funny, the old man has been familiar with the books of the sages for decades and has been tireless, and his understanding of the classics of the sages has not only been recognized by the scholars of the world, but also praised by His Majesty. You actually said that the old man changed the original meaning of the words of the sages without authorization, and misled the people who read the world, you are clearly spewing blood and slandering the old man! ”

At this time, the crowd on the side was gathering more and more, Zhao Kun was a little anxious, and whispered something in Uncle Li's ear, but Uncle Li shook his head and gestured, as if Zhao Kun didn't let the crowd interfere here.

"Since Master Kong thinks that the lower official is slandering for no reason, okay, I also ask Master Kong to restate and explain what you just said, so that the lower official's knowledge can increase by one or two." I have long seen more and more people on the don't go, most of them are young scholars, and they still belong to the category of hot-blooded young people, Luo Bingwang and other fans of my son also stood on top of the crowd, their eyes widened, and they looked at this side very excitedly. This makes me even happier in my heart, well, it is rare to be able to hit the representatives of the Confucian scholars of the old era in front of so many people, I believe that if this old guy can be overturned today, after being spread around by such hundreds of mouths, it will inevitably cause a lot of sensation in the Datang academic circles, and it will also be convenient to improve our position in the hearts of readers.

Although there were many people around, they were also extremely quiet, and almost all of them were trying to put their ears up, all wanting to listen to the debate between the representatives of the new and old academic factions of the Tang Dynasty on the classics of the sages who won and who lost.

------------------------------------------------ "What's so hard about that?" Old man Kong smiled very confidently, stroking his snow-white long beard, his clothes rose and fell above the wind, but he also looked very fairy-like, although the person was a long dry and thin monkey, but his voice was also loud, and his speech was very wrong: "Zi said: The people can make it, but they can't make it." It means that the court rules the people and instructs the people of the world to do things, after all, the way of the saints is far-reaching, and people are not easy to know, so just tell them what to do, and there is no need to let them understand what they are doing, so that the world will be peaceful......"

Kong Yingda shook his head as he spoke, not much different from the little whites who ate ecstasy and danced in the disco in later generations, except that the old guys played slow motion, and the little whites of later generations played fast motion.

"Good! It is worthy of being a great Confucian of my dynasty, with incisive insights and thought-provoking. "It's none other than the doctor Chu Suiliang, the old ruffian who likes to do against my son. There were also applause and cheers around, but there weren't many, because the big guys were still staring, trying to see how I, the idol in the minds of young scholars in the Tang Dynasty, knocked this old guy to the ground.

"Master Kong's explanation is not wrong." I kept a peaceful smile on my face and smiled at the old man Kong, who seemed to have won a battle, which made everyone present stunned. However, it seems that Master Kong did not put the Analects. Have you finished reading Uncle Qin? ”

My words suddenly made the eyes of everyone who had just been stunned widen, and almost the sound of breathing disappeared. Kong Yingda's fingers trembled even more angrily, and he couldn't make a fart for a long time. "You! Okay, you Fang Jun, hum, let's talk about it, why didn't the old man finish reading the classics of the sages? ”

"This seems to be saying, 'The people can make it, but they can't know it.'" In front of this sentence, there is also a sentence 'Zi said: Xing in poetry, standing in ceremony, and becoming music.' 'Right? "My demeanor is much better than this old man's, I still have a posture of respecting the old and loving the young, and my speech seems tepid, but the deep and loud voice of this son makes everyone around me hear.

Kong Yingda smiled and said very smugly: "What's so difficult about this? Xing, rising. Self-cultivation is the first thing to learn poetry. Etiquette so stand up. So the surname is good. Music is a poem, poetry is a musical word, etiquette is a natural order, is a personnel norm, it can also be said that etiquette is the action of poetry, and the performance of poetry and music must be established according to etiquette. Poetry and music are the basic cultivation of the sage's learning, which are the disciplines of Confucius's disciples, and they are also the pursuit of my scholars in the Tang Dynasty. ”

Well, this explanation is indeed classic, this time the applause and cheers are even more enthusiastic, even Luo Bingwang and others also have a look of agreement, very good, we just want this effect, the higher you hold it, the more painful it hurts, this truth has been used very well throughout the ages.

And the counselor Chu Suiliang cocked his thumb excitedly, and looked at me with a smug face, as if he was the winner, poor thing, with his eloquence, let alone debating with me, and lifting shoes with me.

We didn't have time to pay attention to this kind of people, so we continued to look at Old Man Kong with a smile, and said with a pleasant face: "Thank you Master Kong for your teachings, after listening to Master Kong's explanation, it made the lower officials feel strange, according to the old man's meaning, did the sages like to say contradictory things?" ”

Everyone, including Uncle Li, also had a big question mark on their heads. The old man was also looking at me in confusion, not to mention the others, and the crowd of onlookers around me had begun to whisper.

"What do you mean by that?" Kong Yingda blinked suspiciously, and said with some confusion.

"In this way, since everyone has leisure today, let's explain the lawsuit well. First of all, Fang thought, 'Zi said: The people can make it, but they can't make it known. This reading is wrong. Fang thought. It should be read as 'the people may, let it be; No, what does it mean? If the people of the world can abide by the moral and behavioral standards regulated by the court, then the court can allow the people to live and produce in peace and tranquility without interfering too much. If the morality and behavior of the common people do not conform to the requirements of 'Tao' and 'etiquette', and do not conform to the norms of the court, then the court has the responsibility and obligation to tell them and guide them so that they can obey and abide by the laws and moral norms of the country. This is the original intention of the sages. ”

------------------------------------------------ said this, I paused, glanced around, and sure enough, Fang Cai's doubts had long disappeared from everyone's faces, replaced by a sense of understanding and identity, especially Uncle Li and other important ministers of the court, all of whom bowed their heads slightly and looked thoughtful. The old man's gloomy face finally showed a smile of approval. This is even more encouraging to me.

Old man Kong was a little stunned, and when he saw the smugness on my face, he couldn't help but say angrily: "That old man dares to ask, 'Zi said: Flourish in poetry, stand in ceremony, and become happy. 'Is there a mistake in this old man?' ”

Of course that's right, in fact, this sentence and the latter sentence are interrelated, and after forcibly splitting it, it is most likely to lead to ambiguity. Etiquette so stand up. So the surname is good. These three things are the foundation for educating the people, and we must grasp them well.

If all the people of insight in the world can master poetry and music, then we and other natural music is equal to their free play, and it can make these knowledge in their hands to add luster and play a greater role, and also allow them to innovate, if they do not understand, then we must educate them, let them know and understand these things. This is the original intention of the sages, and it is also the foundation of my Tang Dynasty to educate the people and govern the country. ”

"Good!" This good voice was Gao Shilian, who was standing next to Uncle Li, the court boss whose prestige and prestige in the Tang Dynasty was on par with the old man of my family, and the uncle of the eldest grandson Empress roared, Gao Shilian slapped with admiration on his face.

And the surrounding onlookers applauded and cheered one after another, Luo Bingwang and others cheered loudly one by one, and kept waving to me, well, there is a posture of waving the flag and shouting for me. It was so hot that it almost slapped it to pieces. At this moment, the old man Kong was really angry, but he didn't expect to be played hard by a little fart kid who was less than one-third of his age in front of the public, if the old guy could bear it, he wouldn't be called Kong Yingda.

"The old man is full of poetry and books, and he doesn't dare to say that there is no one in the world who is unparalleled in the world, but he also dares to say that there is no difference, what evidence do you have, think that the old man is not right, if you can't say the truth, the old man will let you know that it is amazing! Let you know the consequences of slandering the old man! Kong Yingda's last sentence almost jumped out through gritted teeth. A pair of faint old eyes even emitted a fierce light like a vicious wolf. But his performance, in my eyes, was nothing more than a death throes
