Dong Lun is a year older.

In the cold wind of the New Year, the old man leaned on a chair in the room in the front yard, hugged the fire, and looked at the snowflakes falling outside the window lattice, and his spirit gradually became dim.

He was covered with a thick blanket, and a book was placed on it, the miscellaneous notes of the Song Dynasty.

"Last night, the wind and rain were blowing, and the curtains were rustling. The candle is leaking and the pillow is broken, and the sitting cannot be flat.

The world is flowing with water, and it is a dream. The drunken road is stable and frequent, and it is unbearable. ”

The words in the book seem to have transformed into the light and shadow of the past, appearing in Dong Lun's turbid world, and then dissipating like a dream bubble.

Just when this dream was gradually reaching its peak with a weird, passionate buzzing in the skull.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Dong Lun woke up, he didn't speak, he didn't look back, he knew that at this time, it must be the servant who came to call him to eat, but now he can't eat anything every day, at most he drinks some gruel and eats some soft cakes.

Life is rare for seventy years, and this Su Ru, who was respected as "Mr. Beizhou" at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, is eighty-one this year.

The knock on the door continued, and although there were only two sounds, it seemed to be getting more and more urgent.

"Come in."

Dong Lun finally couldn't help but turn his chair and look at the door.

But what I saw was a familiar face.

The inheritor of all his political legacies, the most proud protégé, Honglu Temple Qing Xie Jin.

Xie Jin had already shaken off the snowflakes on his body outside, and at this time his face was pale and a little red, Dong Lun knew a little bit of medical skills, which was a manifestation when he was losing qi and blood and was thinking deeply.

"Your blood was already at a loss, and now you're burning your heart."

Xie Jin was stunned when he heard this, and immediately smiled bitterly.

For a person like him, who has been famous all over the world for a long time, but has been ruined for ten years, now that he has gained power and devoted himself to the temple, how can he have any extra thoughts about his health?

Xie Jin was about to say something, but Dong Lun suddenly waved his hand to stop him.

Dong Lun sighed and shook his head: "If there is something to say directly, I'll listen, anyway. It would be nice to hear you say a few words. ”

Xie Jin took out two neatly folded "Ming Pao".

At this time, there was another knock on the door, and the servant pushed it and walked in.

He handed the tray on, then silently exited the house.

Dong Lun wears reading glasses, which are customized goods in the glass workshop, and the labor cost is very high, because the lenses need to be polished repeatedly, so the price cannot be reduced for a while, and now only the elite use it.

There are not many words on "Ming Pao", but Dong Lun read it very carefully, word by word, and it was enough time for a cup of tea.

Then, Dong Lun refused Xie Jin's help, and took a sip of the hot soup in the tray with a trembling hand, before he said slowly: "You should soon receive the news of writing an article and publishing it in the newspaper, so get ready." ”

"I won't write."

Xie Jin's answer was very honest, and the honesty was somewhat unexpected by Dong Lun.

Dong Lun pointed at Xie Jin with his fingers, and then hung down again: "The inner fetus is different, the pen and tongue spray the Yangtze River, and the longitudinal teaching piece of silk is difficult to pay, and I disdain to weigh it with others. It's a solution! What articles do you don't know how to write? Whether you can't write or don't dare to write. ”

Xie Jin was silent for a moment, nodded, and shook his head again: "Don't dare to lift the pen." ”

Dong Lun raised his head and stared at this disciple seriously.

"Talent is high, and he is dedicated to camping; Today's me is not yesterday. ”

Listening to the teacher's comments on himself, Xie Jin could only smile bitterly.

Faced with a choice today, he was in a panic in his heart, looking around, he turned out to be a trusted relative and friend, and finally ran to the teacher's mansion to seek a determination, what else could he say?

In this life, there are always times when it is difficult to make a choice.

At such a moment, the weakest part of the heart will be fully exposed, and the person will not dare to make his own decisions, dare not be responsible for his own future, and the whole person will suffer from gains and losses.

Of course, Dong Lun knew Xie Jin's current situation, he knew his disciple too well.

Xie Jin is not a person who can make decisions and make decisions on his own.

He needed someone to show him the way in front.

Otherwise, his ambition does not match his vision and ability at all, and he can only blindly break through the south wall, and then fall headlong into the Yellow River and drown.

And there's another allusion here.

On the issue of the rule of officials, Xie Jin's attitude 15 years ago was completely opposite to that of now.

In April of the twenty-first year of Hongwu, Xie Jin accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang on a tour and presented "The Affair of the Great Kitchen Xifeng", which can be said to reflect the thoughts of the traditional scholars and doctors of Xie Jin at that time, and Xie Jin was very popular because of his fame.

The article goes straight to the point, and the opening sentence is "the law that does not change for a few days, and there is no one who has no fault for a day", "I have not heard of a great goodness, the reward is extended to the world, and the hometown is restored, and the one who is the same in the end", that is, it is pointed out that Lao Zhu governs the world too harshly and harshly punishes the law, and always engages in the problem of exemplary figures.

It can only be said that Xie Jin didn't lose his head, because Lao Zhu was in a good mood that day.

The main purpose of this article is to advise Lao Zhu to simplify the decree, not to punish indiscriminately, and to be better to scholars, that is, the theory of "kings and scholars rule the world together" inherited from the two Song Dynasty, that the relationship between kings and scholars is mutual, and that the king respects and treats scholars with courtesy, and can provide a better environment for scholars to give full play to their talents to build the country. And then realize the great rule of the world.

At that time, Lao Zhu looked at Xie Jin and didn't say anything, just asked this kid to get out of front of his eyes quickly.

Fifteen years later, Xie Jin finally understood why Emperor Hongwu, who was gray-haired and had fierce eyes like a tiger, suddenly looked at himself with such eyes mixed with "pity" and "sympathy".

Along the way, he learned a lot of truths.

The king and the scholar did not rule the world together, but they could not completely eliminate each other, so they had to coexist.

The imperial power is a little better to the scholars, in exchange for not the rule of the officials, but the high probability of the officials to rule the erosion, kicking the nose and the face.

It is useless to reduce taxes for the common people, and the root problem lies in the grassroots officials, and if the imperial power does not go to the countryside, no amount of tax reduction can be reduced to the people's heads.

Building more schools to promote poetry, calligraphy and etiquette cannot build the world's governance, but paving roads and using more chemical fertilizers to control water can be.

Xie Jin understands everything, but looking at himself fifteen years ago, he can't cut off the demons in his heart.

The past self, the young self, the naïve and unborn self who learned to be the first in the world.

"Look, the old man will teach you one last time."

Xie Jin helped Dong Lun get up, studied the ink with his own hands, and watched Dong Lun's large pen dipped in ink and fainted on the rice paper.

Miraculously, Dong Lun, who was still trembling slightly just now, his hands and wrists began to be unusually stable at this time, without the slightest trembling.

"The law of the country is like a rational body, and if you want to be strong, you will be vigorous.

The troubles of the country are not from the outside but inside, and they do not suffer from the entry of the northern captives, but the only troubles are not clear! The officials are not clear, and the discipline is sluggish, so the vitality is depleted day by day, and the spirit is day by day.

The so-called 'if you want to reassure the people, you must add to the herdsmen's officials', today's temples, the old style of hypocrisy and pretentiousness still exists, and the herdsmen's officials are not yet self-controlled, why is the grace of the country in the sea? ”

Dong Lun sent the pen to Xie Jin.

"For the rest, you will write, only write about the style of governance, and don't talk about the style of the world and the style of learning."

Xie Jin's hand took the pen, trembling violently.

The pen touched the rice paper, twisted and crooked, but in the next word, it was immediately converted into Dong Lun's font.

"Write your own words and go your own way."

Xie Jin's words gradually became his own pen style, and the dragon and snake flew and the article was completed.

"There are three evils today."

"One is greedy for money."

"Those who are greedy for money are blind, and those who are not blind are covered by Adu; The seven tricks have been lost, and those who are not lost have a line of holes. ”

"The two are called dredging."

"A gentleman is in the name of mediation, and a villain's friend is trusted; The gentleman is talented in dredging, and the villain borrows the seam. ”

"The scholar said that he had a cure for salvation, but he didn't know that it was a disease of insolation. If the husband is virtuous, he will advance, and if he is not virtuous, he will give up, so why fake mediation? If the government can do it, if it can't be stopped, why bother dredging? ”

"The three are called pomp."

"There is something good at the top, there is an effect at the bottom, the upper and the center, and the lower state capital, and the world is competing for flattery."

"There are officials who go out on patrol, all of them put out golden drums and decorate horses, and the people are lying on the side of the road, only promises must be cautious, and the subordinates have to be not responsible, and they are very lucky."

"Peel off the reputation of the present, run to the acceptance to ask for recommendations, the levy period will be to complete the book, and be hasty to be responsible."

"The ancients said: If the law is not established, there is no need to punish it. The country and the dynasty have no prestige at all, and there is no distinction between right and wrong without merit and crime, and all these things are really not alarmist. ”

Xie Jin put down the pen, and after suffocating, he hissed as if he had a long breath, and beads of sweat were already rolling down his forehead.

"That's what Xie Jin."

With a "snap", sweat fell on the rice paper, messing up the handwriting.

Xie Jin looked at this article that completely broke with "yesterday's me" and was relieved.

After Dong Lun briefly perked up, he returned to his old appearance, he raised his hand and waved it weakly.

"Go ahead. The old man has nothing to tell you, I just want to tell you that since you have decided to embark on this path, don't go back and be a repeated. ”

Xie Jin put away a few pieces of paper, bowed solemnly to Dong Lun, and then raised his head, but his originally pale face was much more ruddy.

Xie Jin came and went in a hurry, and soon left Dong Lun's house.

"Ho ho~"

Dong Lun leaned down and gasped, coughed up a mouthful of phlegm at the bronze spittoon, and slammed his back on the chaise longue.

"It's so good, I can only lie down and watch."

——————

In the spring of the second year of Yongle, the smell of gunpowder is getting stronger and stronger.

With the openness of the contradictions in the discussion of the three winds of "official style, world style, and academic style", heroes and scholars from all walks of life could not hold back.

Those who are qualified to be on the "Ming Pao" will have an open debate, and those who are not qualified to be on the list will have to criticize and write at the Yaji and poetry meetings.

Unlike his uneducated son, Mr. Hu Jichen and Mr. Hu have been very high-end in Nanjing's Shilin recently.

Hu Jichen, as the master of Sinology who has been leading the country in Annam for decades, is probably a great Confucian at the same level as Zheng Mengzhou, the prime minister of Goryeo, maybe it is not outstanding in the Hongwu era led by Liu Ji and Song Lian thirty years ago, but in today's Yongle era where Confucianism continues to develop, but Confucianism is withering, it is quite level.

And even if Mr. Hu can't be called "Annan Cao Cao", he has to be a "Annan Sima Yi", he can still forbear with one hand, and he will never be sharp when talking to people, let alone talk about sensitive topics that can cause death.

What stands out is that the big husband can hold back and bend!

Therefore, there is a discussion about the style of officials and the style of study, Hu Jichen did not participate in any of them, and today Cao Duan pulled him to participate in the tea party of Wang Youli, the head of the Jinhua School, and learned that it was only about the style of the world, so Hu Jichen happily went to the appointment.

As mentioned before, the Jinhua School is one of the most important branches of Confucianism today, and Ye Shi's Yongjia School is in the same vein as the Eastern Zhejiang School.

This type of school, after the development of the two gentlemen of "Renshan" and "Pure Filial Piety", after the end of the Song Dynasty and the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it did not fall for a hundred years, and in the hands of Wang Youli, there are many talents under the disciples, and it has a pivotal position in the ideological circle of the Ming Dynasty.

Because of this, Hu Jichen dared to speak at the tea party.

Otherwise, if the participants are all those defenders who insist on Cheng Zhu's science, it is good not to speculate, at most two sentences will be ridiculed, and they will be put on the line.

In fact, this is related to the actual situation of the ideological circles in the early Ming Dynasty, before the Ming Dynasty was the reign of the Mengyuan Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, so the early Ming Dynasty was the official elite culture that completely controlled the discourse of the society, and its main body was Cheng Zhu Lixue since the Song and Yuan dynasties, and the Hongwu Jianwen and Wen dynasties, the most important scholars around the emperor were also mostly famous physicists, such as Song Lian, Liu Ji, Wang Yi, Fang Xiaoru, etc., the academic ideas of these famous ministers of science also profoundly affected the establishment of official ideology and culture in the early Ming Dynasty, and finally formed a situation of "science is the only one".

The fundamental characteristic of Cheng Zhu's theory is that the Confucian concept of society, ethnicity, ethics and morality and personal life belief is composed of a more complete conceptualized and systematic philosophy and belief system, and makes it logical, spiritual, abstract and truthful, forming a political concept that reason is higher than power and Taoism is higher than governance.

So here for physicists, it is normal for everything to go online.

The Jinhua School's not-so-serious academic thinking is rare and can be slightly relaxed, but it is only relatively speaking, according to Hu Jichen's observations, the Jinhua School is also worried about the evolution of the current world style.

In fact, this is equivalent to Jiang Xinghuo's previous life in the middle of the Ming Dynasty The evolution of academic thought was staged in advance, because with the rapid development of the commodity economy and the improvement of the literacy rate of the general public, the rise of civil society, the discourse power of culture will inevitably move down to the bottom of the people, including merchants, scholars, citizens, etc., thus creating a prosperous and quite modern Ming Dynasty market culture, and the market culture is often opposed to the traditional elite culture, and the rise of the market culture represents the decline of the elite culture.

This kind of social and cultural transformation evolved from the economic structure is inevitable, but in the process of transformation, it will inevitably face the counterattack and suppression of the elite culture that controls the dominant power of discourse.

"The revival of Confucianism in the Northern Song Dynasty, Wang Jinggong's new learning, Sima Guangshuo's learning, Ercheng Luoxue, and Su Shishu's learning are all about the ideological competition around the change of law, and today's ideological circles also have such a momentum of a hundred schools of thought."

Wang Youli took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Xinxue and Luoxue can best reflect the temperament of daring to be the first in the world, and they are closest to Jiang Xinghuo's thinking today. Sima Guangshuo, Su Shi Shuxue, in the debate is the debate on the law of the ancestors of the Song Dynasty, how similar is it to today? Time has changed, but the truth is always the same as my generation of Jinhuamen people, and what we do today is just like our ancestors. ”

Wang Heli's so-called "like the ancestors of the past" in general, means that in accordance with the old tradition of the Eastern Zhejiang School, actively integrate Confucian resources, and deepen the thinking of the governance theory of discipline and law, but try not to touch other things, the governance theory is safe and high-end, there is this kind of East Zhejiang School inherited from the road to go, why bother to go near and far?

The theory of governance has a long history in the Chinese academic tradition, starting from Jia Yi in the Qin and Han dynasties, through the evolution of the Han and Tang dynasties, and has been refined and applied in a systematic form in the "Lecture Notes on Song Memorabilia" by Lu Zhong during the period of Emperor Lizong of the Southern Song Dynasty, and further developed in the successor Ma Duanlin's "General Examination of Literature" and Qiu Jun's "University Yanyi Supplement". In the Ming Dynasty, the Confucian scholars Liu Ji, Song Lian, Wang Yi, and Fang Xiaoru inherited and promoted the thinking of the theory of governance.

The so-called governance theory, is the analysis and study of the three of governing people, governing the Tao and governing the law, from Xunzi's "there is a governing person, no governing the law", to the later "there is a governing law, there is a governing person", has been evolving, but no matter in the governance of the law, the governance of the people and the governance of the road of any party, the governance theory structure tends to think about the mutual influence and symbiotic dependence between this side and the other two, it can be said that the purpose of the thinking of the governance theory is to emphasize the overall integration relationship, not the kind of "either/or" diode thinking.

This kind of comprehensive thinking is also the root of the Jinhua School's ability to integrate science, mind, and practice.

"How does Yuechuan think that today's world should be better than before?"

Wang Youli set his eyes on Cao Duan.

Cao Duan is now famous, and he is the inheritor of Zhou Dunyi's thoughts, and he is already the leader of the young generation in today's Ming academic circles.

What's more, Cao Duan also has the work of sorting out the context of ancient and modern literary schools, which school doesn't want to stuff some disciples into this kind of working group for compiling and sorting tasks? Therefore, Cao Duan is level and valuable, and Wang Youli speaks very politely, without contempt for juniors.

"The change of the world has its own roots."

Cao Duan's Taoism was inherited from Zhou Dunyi's lineage, and his answer did not surprise everyone at the tea party: "If you want to learn the way of a saint, you must establish a foothold from the Taiji diagram." The Tao is Tai Chi, Tai Chi is the Tao, in terms of passing, it is said to be the Tao, and in terms of non-miscellaneous, it is said to be one, how can there be two husbands? However, everything has contradictions, contradictions are born and transformed, and the movement and stillness are endlessly changing, and nature cannot be as stagnant as a pool of stagnant water. ”

Cheng Zhu Lixue's view of world monism is materialistic, but Cao Duan's consciousness is very high, and his philosophical ideas are developed, after absorbing Jiang Xinghuo's idea of solving Tai Chi with contradictions, he fundamentally opposed Zhu Xi's Tai Chi "does not move spontaneously", believed that Tai Chi will automatically be still, and realized the active role of Tai Chi (contradiction) on things.

According to the derivation of this philosophical thinking, it is normal for the world to change, and if it has remained the same, it means that Tai Chi is not moving, but it is not normal.

Hu Jichen sat quietly for a long time, got a general understanding of the situation on the field, and waited for everyone to discuss for a while, and only then did he speak when his eyes turned to him: "Today's Shilin is often good at talking about things that are ancient and long-standing, taking different trends as lofty ambitions, trying empty words, thinking that the things of the world are ultimately the best way to govern with the times, and the governance is meritorious, so that's it, don't panic, and don't make a big fuss." ”

"A good one - the law and the times change to govern, and the rule with the world is meritorious!"

Wang Youli stroked his palms and laughed, he had long felt that Hu Jichen was a wonderful person, and his words had the charm of the theory of governance, and the study of the theory of governance is to govern people, govern the Tao and govern the law, and the truth is the same.

But the other group of people at the tea party did not necessarily fully agree with their views, and this was the Yang family from Guanzhong.

Guanxue is the Song Dynasty Zhang Zai founded on behalf of the Guanzhong region of the academic school, the academic context has a long history, probably went through several stages, that is, extremely prosperous in the Northern Song Dynasty, soon after the change of Jingkang, Guanshan fell into the hands of the Jin people, since then the academic has always been sluggish, and when the Mongols entered the Central Plains, if it were not for the hard work of the Guanxue Yang family for several generations, I am afraid that the inheritance has already been broken.

Yang family, is the representative of today's Guanxue, Yang Tiande, Yang Gongyi, Yang Yin three generations of people strongly advocate the spirit of Guanxue, to lecture for a living, carry forward Zhang Zai's consistent advocacy of academic ideas, it is the efforts of these three generations, so that Guanxue in the Yuan Dynasty has not been speechless, but also laid the foundation for the revival of Guanxue in the Ming Dynasty But the revival of Guanxue, from the perspective of the historical process, that is a matter of the future, according to Jiang Xinghuo's previous life in the late Ming Dynasty scholar Feng Congwu to Guan Xue's academic pedigree, that is, "Guanxue Edition", Don't say that the famous Sanyuan School in the middle of the dynasty doesn't even have a shadow, even if it is Duan Jian, the master of the frontier soldiers who is known as "Mr. Rong Si", there are still fifteen years before he was born.

Therefore, Guan Xue's current banner is still three or two of Yang's big cats and kittens.

But today's head of Guanxue, Yang Jingcheng, compared with his ancestors a hundred years ago, only has a self-contained academic status.

This is also easy to understand, if Guan Xue is really revitalized, which round will Cao Duan be "sonic shock Guan Shaanxi" at a young age?

To put it bluntly, the true strength is far worse than Cao Duan.

But there is a tradition of guanxue, and now the main point of Yang's guanxue is to worship the ancients.

If you look at it from the academic spectrum, the current Guanxue is definitely not the same thing as the Guanxue of the Song Dynasty, but is more inclined to Jiang Xinghuo's theory of the master of the Zhu Ten Clan, that is, Fang Xiaoru.

Fang Xiaoru in the article "Song Bachelor's Continuation of the Preface", once described the social customs of the Hongwu Dynasty as follows: "The upper Ji Gu, with the eyes and ears of the new generation, is Yi Lun, re-dresses and crowns, makes ceremonial music, establishes schools, and all the classics of the ancestors talk about the practice", from which it can be seen very simply that in the Hongwu era, the customs are in a retro era.

This kind of retro, on the one hand, is to establish a stable moral society, and on the other hand, it is the "de-Huization" movement advocated by Zhu Yuanzhang. Legally speaking, Temujin is of course the "Mandate of Heaven Zhenren" in the desert, and the legal system of the Ming Dynasty is inherited from the Great Yuan, and emotionally speaking, it is necessary to fully restore the Han people's clothing and etiquette, so the retro atmosphere of the Hongwu Dynasty started from the Zheng Yi Lun and the code of the first king, and then through the means of emphasizing blood, respecting patriarchal law, stressing fame, and not respecting inferiority, etc., in order to establish an ideological and cultural foundation with traditional Confucian ethics and morality as the core.

It is also the retro movement that lasted for 30 years in the Hongwu era and spared no effort, and it was precisely because Lao Zhu had the merit of rectifying the three platforms and five constants, so when the Jingjing was martyred, there were so many loyal martyrs who died for Emperor Jianwen.

Yang Jingcheng said slowly: "The nature of the ancients is mostly simple, but the nature of today's people has become cunning; The atmosphere of the ancients was mostly resolute, but the atmosphere of the people today has become decadent; The ancients were studious and kind, but today people abandon the Tao and slander; The ancients were diligent and thrifty, and today's people are arrogant and lazy; The ancients were loyal and respectful, and today's people pour stubborn lawsuits, according to me, today's world style is not as good as that of the ancients. ”

Hu Jichen is not easy to answer and refute, but Cao Duan has no scruples, he is honest and speaks relatively straightforwardly, only admits reason, and does not recognize anything else.

Cao Duan opened his mouth and said: "If you talk about the ancients, few can pass the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, right?" ”

"But in the Spring and Autumn Period, it can also be called respecting courtesy and valuing faith, and by the time of the Warring States Period, it was already a matter of never saying anything about courtesy and faith; In the Spring and Autumn Period, the King of Zhou was still the suzerain, and when it came to the Warring States Period, he never spoke of the King of Zhou; In the Spring and Autumn Period, there is still 'strict sacrifice, re-employment and enjoyment', to the Warring States Period, then there is nothing to do; in the Spring and Autumn Period, still pay attention to the clan surname, to the Warring States Period, there is no word; in the Spring and Autumn Period, there are still banquet poems, to the Warring States Period, then do not hear it; in the Spring and Autumn Period, there is still a 'go to the policy book', to the Warring States Period, there is nothing. That is to say, the ancient style of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States does not exist. ”

Because it was a tea party for private academic exchanges, or hosted by the Jinhua School, for the sake of Wang Youli's face, Cao Duan did not continue, but the meaning was also obvious, what the ancients and the present people, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are not the same thing, what Yang Jingcheng said is just a "filter of the ancients".

Nostalgia does not mean that the old is really that good, let him go back to the past era, and he can also pick out a bunch of problems.

With the development of the commodity economy, social and cultural life has also changed, and the ideology and culture have begun to change from the conservative and dull period of Hongwu Jianwen to the innovative and active.

Of course, Yang Jingcheng is not so easy to refute, but he earnestly gives two examples.

"When a leaf falls, I know that the world is autumn, and the world is going down, it is indeed not me who is alarmist."

"For example, Guanzhong Xiangzi, I heard my ancestors say that those who came out of office in the past, and those who returned empty-handed, comforted each other and respected each other very much. Today, on the contrary, there are many people who have returned to their hometowns after dismissal, and the villagers only envy the gold silk in their arms, and if they return empty-handed, they will be laughed at, isn't this an example? ”

Cao Duan was stunned, and said: "It is precisely because of this that the national teacher wants to rectify the rule of officials. ”

"Emperor Taizu Gao's legislation is strict, and he spares no effort to punish corruption, and finally has the effect of scholars knowing honesty and shame?"

"The heart of the prosperous world is thicker, and the thicker it is, the more prosperous; The root cause of the declining world's people's hearts and the thinner the weaker the declining officials' style, is still in the world's style, which I admit that Hu Sacrificial Wine is true. ”

Yang Jingcheng said again: "For example, most of today's people are as they say in the book, only heavy clothes and not heavy people, wearing a few gorgeous clothes, going to people, don't mention talking, that is, let out a fart, all of them are respectful, and if it is the master who has the ability to splash the sky, he is not very well-dressed, and he walks in front of people, unless he says it in a dazzling way, only when the wind passes by his ears, is this what I am talking nonsense?" ”

The style of officials, the style of the world, and the style of study, are entangled with each other, and they can't be separated separately, once they talk about it, it is inevitable that there will be some places that cross the line, and everyone at this tea party is not the bold master, so they all tacitly avoid talking.

Just as the tea party was gradually entering the poetry section, there was suddenly news outside that interrupted the progress of the tea party.

It's not side news, but it's an edict from the palace.

The edict was not long, but the amount of information was very dense.

"In recent years, morale has been pouring and officials are lacking.

Drilling into the sinus gap, skillfully as a medium for taking; Encourage friends and squeeze out the art of official affairs.

So the handle of the court's prestige and blessing was only a reward for the ministers.

"Book" has clouds: unbiased and non-party, the royal road is swinging; There is no party and no bias, and the royal road is mediocre.

At the beginning of my succession, I was determined to inherit the legacy of Emperor Taizu Gao, and I was the source of the deep candle disease, which urgently needed to be eradicated.

Those who have official guards, whether inside or outside, have their own thoughts; Those who have words and responsibilities are right and wrong, and everyone strives to speak straight.

The minister has the wind of establishing a dynasty, and the minister has the festival of retiring from the public, so the Qing Dynasty is in power, Daotai Shikang, and so on are also famous in the bamboo silk, and the shadow of Mianlu is in the descendants, Gu is not beautiful?

If you indulge in the old ways and stick to the old ways, the court may not be able to recite them, and the law may not be able to do it, then my ancestors' constitution is very strict, and I really dare not forgive you. ”

Woe to you, you said that Emperor Taizu Gao has so many "ancestral laws", why don't you learn anything else? Partial students have to learn to vigorously rectify the rule of officials, and at this time you remember the ancestral constitution.

Well, Schrödinger's ancestral law.

But obviously, the edict from the palace is also a kind of signal, which means that with the fermentation of public opinion in "Ming Pao" in the past few days, there has been feedback.

The emperor's meaning is also obvious, everything else can be argued, but the official style is the theme of this action, don't fight about this, and you don't want to rely on public opinion to stop the work of rectifying the rule of officials.

Such a characterization is obviously contrary to Hu Yan and Yang Jingcheng's view that "the style of officials is closely related to the style of the world", but this belongs to the rules of the organizers, and they insist on separating the two, but no one dares to say anything anymore.

For example, the tea party held by the Jinhua School and the Guan School and other academic exchanges of similar nature are innumerable in Nanjing these days.

Around this broad social proposition, which involves all people, different trends of thought and schools of thought have begun to fully exchange and collide with each other.

And the most important thing is that this year is still the year of the imperial examination, and the people from other places have just come to Nanjing and encountered this kind of thing, it is really a small knife to cut the ass - open their eyes, say anything, and it is very lively for a while.

In this kind of warm atmosphere of "everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, and I take pictures when the fire burns the building", it is not a big deal to watch the excitement, and a few days later, the Guozijian is also about to usher in a debate between representatives of different opinions on "the style of officials, the style of the world, and the style of study".
