Wang Yangming stayed in Huarong County for half a month, during which he kept lecturing, and he also discussed with Liu Daxia.

The exchange of ideas has benefited both of them a lot, and they have a better understanding of what they want to do, and they have reached a tacit understanding.

They tacitly chose to keep silent about the problem of Mingjiao, and did not directly express it, but hoped to use the prescription of "middle school as the body, learning as the use" to cure the disease of Mingjiao.

Whether it is Liu Daxia or Wang Yangming, or many sages in history, they have all discovered the problems of Confucianism, but they also have no way and courage to cut them off!

Because it is too difficult to rebuild a system of learning, especially this system of learning, which is the study of governing the country, the world, and the people.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius has proposed self-cultivation to govern the country and level the world, since the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, Confucianism is the integration of a hundred schools.

The external Confucianism and internal law and the county system are the foundation of the governance of the past dynasties, and it is also from the Han Dynasty that the rule of the three generations has become the common pursuit of Confucianism all over the world.

The imperial examination system of the Sui and Tang dynasties pushed this system to the extreme stability, and also made the literati and doctors begin to fight against the powerful.

It was not until the Song Dynasty that the Confucian scholars seized the Taoist system, which was opposed to the political system that represented the secular power of the emperor.

The premise of this sentence is that the status of the famous religion is as stable as ever, and the three outlines and five constants and the way of the sages implemented by the famous religion are still the highest interpretation power of the Taoist system.

Famous teachers and scholars have long been co-integrated, and they also coexist with the entire court, and they are also constantly parting with all the people in the world!

"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"

This system is huge, complex, and profound, so that Wang Yangming and Liu Daxia have to tinker with it.

Historically, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was a deviant and criticized the trend of thought of Confucianism, which was the result of the reversal of the extreme, if it was in accordance with the law of the development of things, after the end of the Ming Dynasty, Confucianism should enter self-improvement and make up for some defects.

However, God did not bless China, and the deeper contradictions that existed in the Qing Dynasty made Confucianism transform and be re-established as a tool to balance the government.

Moreover, the Qing Dynasty inherited the Ming system, and on the premise of gaining technology and experience in the Ming Dynasty, it was repaired again, coupled with the policy of ignoring the people and deeper ideological imprisonment, so that Confucianism was also big at the end of the Qing Dynasty.

A generation can only do the things of one generation, and Liu Daxia and Wang Yangming dare not imagine the consequences of introducing a completely new system to ban Confucianism and Taoism.

This is completely contrary to their lifelong concepts and beliefs, no matter how much they see the problem, they can only continue to repaint the house of Mingjiao!

…………

Wang Yangming set off again, this time he deliberately took the ship of the Four Seas Boat Gang.

Liu Daxia's Four Seas Boat Gang is indeed doing well, and his set of management and management methods comes from the businessmen of Nanzhili.

He also creatively borrowed from the Huang people's unified purchase and marketing of grain, and used the Yangtze River and Xiangjiang water systems to purchase grain on both sides of the strait by boat.

In the process, he also co-opted the old gentry landlords with the Liu family and directly signed a grain purchase contract for five years.

Everything seems to be in order, and most of the small local grain merchants in Huguang have been made to have no way out by gentlemen like Liu Daxia.

The big grain merchants simply merged with Liu Daxia, preparing to do the business of the Beijing division together, and use the sea trade to make the business bigger.

The flat-bottomed boat on which Wang Yangming's master and servant sat was full of purchased grain, as well as some yarn spun by farmers.

Take the Xiangjiang River to cross the Dongting Lake, and then pass through the Yangtze River, the speed is much faster than taking the official road.

In less than three days, Wang Yangming went ashore in Dehua County, Jiujiang Prefecture.

He was ready to go to the official post to confirm the itinerary, and at the same time he was ready to study in Dehua County and ignite the first fire of preaching in Jiangxi!

It was just that as soon as he walked outside the county, he was attracted by a row of wooden houses along the river.

The row of wooden houses is square, occupying a plot of land along the river and several large waterwheels outside.

Wang Yangming felt strange, but he saw that there were many carriages coming and going outside, and these carriages looked like they were also the "Eastern Qin carriages"!

Curious, he stepped forward, stopped a woman in a linen garment, and asked, "Is this a weaving workshop?" Why are these houses so weirdly built, and what are these waterwheels for? ”

The woman smiled and said, "This is a spinning mill, which was set up by the magistrate and set up for us festival women. The linen yarn that was made out was also specially collected by Ningbo merchants. This big waterwheel is also used for spinning, and it is said that it was made by the county magistrate, who read the ancient books of the Song Dynasty and visited the craftsmen! ”

Wang Yangming arched his hand with a smile and said, "It seems that this magistrate is really a good official!" ”

"Not really! Lord Dong is the real blue sky, without him, I don't know how many people would have lost their livelihood! ”

After the woman finished speaking, she walked into the factory with a wooden basin, and saw a sign standing at the gate, which read "Dehua County Cooperative Spinning Factory".

Wang Yangming looked at these busy people, and couldn't help but feel a burst of relief in his heart, an official can benefit these people by doing a practical thing.

It seems that learning must be applied to the world, and what does not have to do with the people?

……

The next day, Dehua County School.

After Wang Yangming's briefing, he began to give lectures in the county school.

It's a pity that the county school has long been abolished, and at this moment, there are only less than 30 people in the county school.

When they learned of Wang Shouren's name, they were all very honored.

The name of a prodigy alone has already made Wang Yangming famous in Jiangnan, not to mention that the Wang family and the families in Nanchang are world friends.

Wang Yangming has long been familiar with explaining the study of mind, and the university that is also talked about at the beginning throws out the words of "new" and "pro", and then leads to the defects of Zhu Zi's science and skillfully "reconsiders" the Taoist system.

The students who are doing it are all a little sluggish, they have never heard of the study of mind before, and they can't help but be shocked at the moment.

Many people were skeptical, some seemed to be contemplative, and a few were faintly excited.

Wang Yangming was not in a hurry or slow, and talked about various Taoist theories one by one, and finally led the topic to "everyone can be Yao Shun".

When the conscience, the unity of knowledge and action, and the application of the world were proposed by him and applied to the eight eyes and three outlines, the students present finally showed a sense of amazement.

Some people didn't want to listen anymore, and if they wanted to stick to Cheng Zhu Lixue, they just accused themselves and retreated, but most of them sat upright, ready to listen to Wang Yangming's re-reasoning of the Eight Eyes and Three Outlines.

The eight eyes are Gewu, Zhizhi, sincerity, righteousness, self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world.

Wang Yangming uses the unity of knowledge and action and the application of the world to understand these eight eyes, and re-sort out the application of the world, seeking truth from facts, applying what he has learned, and helping the world and saving the people.

He also expounded the epistemology learned from Yan Zheng's philosophy with Confucian language, and concluded that knowledge is the beginning of action, action is the practice of knowledge, the result of action, the result of verifying knowledge, and the deepening of knowledge in the process of action, so there is no end to learning and action is also endless.

The difference between this and another time and space lies in the fact that Wang Yangming absorbs epistemology and regards cognition and practice as complementary pairs, rather than thinking that action is the end of knowledge as in another time and space.

The students present were all amazed, and felt that Wang Yangming's statement was indeed more reasonable than science.

What's more, compared to science, which seems to be more likable, a single "everyone can be Yao Shun" can be taken as a creed by many readers.

Wang Yangming was confident and calm, and after expounding the outline, he glanced at the students present and said: "Everyone has a saint in their chests, but they are not confident and unwilling to work hard, so they buried this saint." ”

The students couldn't help but smile.

He looked at a shabby-dressed student and said, "You have a saint in your breast. ”

The student immediately stood up and panicked: "Don't dare." ”

Wang Yangming asked him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Everyone has it, why don't you have it?" Everything in the world can be humble, but this is not to be humble. ”

The student looked excited and smiled at it.

Wang Yangming glanced at the students present again, and said loudly: "Everyone has Zhongni in his heart, and he will hear the bitterness and cover the confusion." Now it refers to the true face, but the conscience is more doubtful. ”

Later, he explained earnestly: "Everyone has a conscience, and the learning of the saints is to this conscience." It is the saint who naturally leads to it, the sage who is reluctant to do it, and the fool who refuses to do it. Although he is a fool, as long as he is willing to speak to his conscience, he is no different from a saint. This conscience is therefore possessed by the holy and foolish, and both can be Yao Shun, so also.

It is also for conscience, and conscience is not practiced, not for conscience! No matter how much moral articles are done, what is the benefit of the country, the people, and oneself? On paper, you will eventually feel shallow, and you can't apply what you have learned, and you can't learn it! If you can't do it, you can't be a sage! Everyone can be Yao Shun, do Yao Shun things, and be close to the people as a new people............"

All the students clapped their hands in agreement.

Two days later, the number of students who came to listen to Wang Yangming's lecture had increased to more than 200, and almost all the students in Dehua County rushed over.

Wang Yangming also did not contain the lake, and began to elaborate on the conscience, the unity of knowledge and action, and the application of the world, and even far-fetched the use of Confucianism in the "Theory of Practice" in disguise.

"Apply it to the world, seek truth and truth, do not exaggerate, be unrealistic, do not make empty words, and see practical results in everything. The science of the Song Dynasty is becoming more and more empty and decaying, and the situation of the Ming Dynasty is like this, so the only way to do it is to follow the way of the sages, carry forward the Confucian spirit of taking the world as its own responsibility, and seek pragmatism, reform the malpractice, seek truth, and help the world. There is a future for the world to ............"

"Well spoken!" Suddenly, everyone in the audience stood up reluctantly, their faces full of excitement.

Wang Yangming glanced at him with a smile, feeling that this person was born with righteousness.

"Mr. Yang Ming is polite, I am Dong Yue, Dong Renyi, the local magistrate of the county!"

"Long admiration!" Wang Yangming replied.

"Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. In this world, the bad thing is that there are many empty talkers and a lack of doers! As the saying goes, empty talk misleads the country, but hard work prospers the country! Mr. Yang Ming was born out of thin air, whipping into the inside, and I am afraid that the knowledge in this world will be darkened! ”

"It's too much!" Wang Yangming said with a smile.

"Definitely!" Dong Yue said loudly: "I have been an official for several years, and I don't understand the principles of this official, but my eyes are always in this county, and it is difficult to do things, but someone must do it!" Mr. Yang Ming's practical application, truth-seeking and truth-seeking, these words really entered the heart of the official. The official can't wait to hang the seal and go, and follow the gentleman to study knowledge! ”

Wang Mingyang smiled and quipped: "In this way, the people of Dehua County still have to hate me Wang Shouren to death?" ”
