Nanjing Guozijian inexplicably got the inscription of the prince.

Even if Zhang Zhou didn't see the look of Liu Zhen, the priest of Nanjing Guozi, he knew that this old boy must be confused...... I was so nervous that I didn't participate in this so-called Nanjing literary event, but the event still inevitably smashed me in the face? You actually gave me the prince's imperial pen handbook?

Because of the appearance of the prince, the lively atmosphere around Mochou Lake instantly rose to a new level.

Ying Tianfu and Nanjing Soldiers and Horses, Jinyi Guard, the officials who can be mobilized have been mobilized, even so they can't stand the enthusiasm of the scholars who came to Nanjing, and the scholars want to squeeze their heads to Shuiting, even if they can't go up, they also want to see the excitement from afar.

After all, Nanjing City is different from Jingshi, and it is almost impossible to see the demeanor of the emperor's father and son here.

And the prince still appeared directly in front of people as a market like today, and even used "Zhu Shou" as a pseudonym before, participated in a lot of literary theories, and also mixed up a certain reputation in the literary world at the age of ten, which is like "the people came out of a prince", and it is indescribable that ordinary readers yearn for Zhu Houzhao.

And so it goes.

On the other side, the representatives of the Lingnan School, who were waiting to discuss with Zhang Zhou and were ready to establish the orthodox name of psychology, such as Zhan Ruoshui and others, were more embarrassed one by one.

Originally, they were eager to try to determine the specific strategy of the theory, but the identity of a prince made them unable to resist, not that they felt that their theory was not complete enough...... It's just that there is a prince on the other side, and it is useless for you to talk about it, and the world will still tend to believe Zhang Zhou's side.

This is tantamount to self-defeat without a fight.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Today, the prince came to Nanjing to discuss for Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, I don't know if the student has this qualification?" ”

Zhang Zhoudao: "The prince is serious, the minister is just a cold Confucian, and he doesn't dare to pretend to be the teacher." ”

Zhu Houzhao said with an excited face: "When the students were in the palace, they were often taught by Mr. Jingyi, and now they have also received some teachings on top of the mind, and they have a heart of admiration. ”

"Ahh

Whoever the prince calls Mr. cannot be said to be a disciple of this person.

No one dares to claim to be the prince's teacher.

Mr. is more of an honorific title, after all, only the "Prince Taifu" is the nominal teacher of the East Palace, and although there are many officials in the East Palace, they have only taught the prince homework, who dares to say that he can live in the teacher's position?

But now that Zhu Houguang is going to worship Zhang Zhou's name as a disciple of Xinxue, the meaning is different...... Zhu Houzhao will instantly become the "chief disciple" next to Zhang Zhou, and in the future, Zhang Zhou will open a class to teach apprentices, and everyone else will be directly the prince's "junior brother", and the prince of the Ming Dynasty can be called a brother and a brother in the future...... What if there is a difference in age?

This kind of good thing is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Zhang Zhou said: "The prince should not be smiling, the minister is not qualified to accept the prince into the teacher's door, if it is simply to discuss academic matters, the minister is willing to sit with the prince and discuss." ”

Zhu Houzhao seemed to know the rhetoric for a long time, and said: "After the students return to Beijing, they must ask their father for instructions and ask for their father's permission, so that students can worship such a famous teacher as Mr. As a teacher for one day and a teacher for life, students are willing to follow Mr. to study and study. ”

Zhang Zhou did not answer this time.

But the onlookers around the viewing platform understood that in fact, the only person who was qualified to decide who the prince worshipped as a teacher was the emperor.

Unless Zhu Youzhu is dead, after the crown prince ascends the throne, then this kid can play as much as he wants.

Based on Zhang Zhou's peers with Zhu Youji, as well as the emperor's respect for Zhang Zhou, and Zhang Zhou's current reputation in the literary world, the emperor seems to have no reason to refuse, so that the prince becomes Zhang Zhou's chief disciple, and the prince himself has been studying with Zhang Zhou...... Otherwise, how could the prince appear in Nanjing?

Most people don't know that the prince ran out secretly, and they thought that the prince had been following Zhang Zhou south, but he didn't follow up.

Think about it this way...... It seems that everything makes sense.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Today, the student knows that Mr. Zhang wants to discuss with others, and the student has the courage to discuss with him on behalf of Mr. Zhang, and asks Mr. to give the student this opportunity." ”

Zhang Zhou glanced at Zhan Ruoshui and found that the person opposite was already dead.

Now not only does Zhang Zhou want to use the power of the prince to discuss with them, but directly let the prince appear on behalf of Zhang Zhou...... No matter how awesome you Lingnan School are, you have the ability to talk to the prince!

Zhang Zhou said: "The prince please." The minister also wanted to hear the prince's high arguments. ”

"Good!" Zhu Houzhao was also not polite, and seemed to be complacent, "Student Zhu Houzhao, is a disciple of Mr. Zhang, and today I am fortunate to discuss with you on Confucianism, not seeking victory or defeat, but only seeking to be able to improve in learning." Please advise! ”

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he stepped onto the academic arena as a disciple of Zhang Zhou, with a posture of a master who wants to fight others.

Zhang Zhou immediately retreated to the side of the viewing platform.

Cheng Minzheng walked over and said in a low voice: "Lai Guogong, is this okay?" ”

Zhang Zhoudao: "It's okay, the prince has been studying with me for a long time, and he also has his own perception of mental learning, let him go." ”

Cheng Minzheng frowned.

You let a ten-year-old bear kid go to a group of people who have studied for half their lives? You're not afraid that he'll lose an adult?

Only Tang Yin, who came over from the side, turned his head to the side with an embarrassed face, as Zhang Zhou's "junior brother", Tang Yin knew some "inside information".

Tang Yinxin said, who really dares to argue with the prince? And my senior brother has already prepared a cheat sheet for me, a master and nephew who has not yet entered the door, it is estimated that they are the essence of mental learning, and it is really unscrupulous for the prince's fame.

……

……

The study began.

Zhang Zhou sent a "chief disciple" here, opposite the Lingnan School, naturally he can't bully the less, and the person who represents the Lingnan School is naturally the "chief disciple" of the late school leader Chen Xianzhang, and now Zhan Ruoshui, who is the leader of the Lingnan School.

Zhan Ruoshui is not even a jinshi.

In terms of social status, he is very respected, mainly because of his academic attainments, as well as Chen Xianzhang's admiration for him, and the many famous Confucians he has visited, who also endorse him and make him famous.

But in terms of the officialdom status of the main means of embodiment of merit, he is just an ordinary scholar class, and he has no qualifications to argue with Zhang Zhou at all, they are willing to come, and even come at all costs, more because there is a righteous indignation in their hearts, feeling that Zhang Zhou has robbed the reputation that should belong to them.

They are here for Chen Xianzhang, and they have to go hard.

But now Zhang Zhou's side directly dispatched the prince to discuss learning, which seems to be ...... The identities were not equal in the first place, and now they are even more unequal.

Academics are not just about fame, and their status is also very important, just like if Wang Shouren had always been just an ordinary jinshi, his "Yangming Xinxue" would not have become a classic Confucianism respected by the general public, let alone a generation of academics.

This time, Zhang Zhou's psychology can be promoted so quickly, and the Lingnan School is suppressed, and because Zhang Zhou's identity is there, the scholars in the world are nominally high, but they still have a strong mentality.

"Under Zhu Houzhao, please." Zhu Houzhao speaks for himself.

Zhan Ruoshui said: "The minister is like water." ”

In front of the opponent, he is not a few layers weaker in terms of momentum, but he has to bow down.

If Zhu Houzhao has to say that my husband and my mind are orthodox, then Zhan Ruoshui doesn't even dare to say anything today, otherwise he will have to fight with the prince? Even if you fight, the people below will think that you have a disobedient heart, and from the point of view of morality and etiquette, they will lose.

No matter how you look at it, today is a game with no chance of winning.

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "My husband and I study psychology, we don't know much, all we can say is some superficial insights that I have understood, and I hope you don't forgive me." ”

"Yes." Zhan Ruoshui saluted respectfully.

No way.

The identity of the prince is too bluffing, and there is no room for parry.

Zhu Houzhao said: "If you don't say it, then I'll talk about it first." As far as I know, the way of Confucianism lies in cultivating the mind, in conscience, and what is sought is the principle of virtue. ”

Zhan Ruoshui said cautiously: "The ancestor once said, 'Recognize the principles of heaven everywhere during the day, and with this whip, why can't you suffer from the good things of the ancients'." This is also the principle of virtue. ”

This is a matter for both sides to take their own positions.

The essence of Yangming Xinxue lies in "to conscience", and Zhan Ruoshui's Ganquan School pursues "recognizing heavenly principles everywhere", this point of view was not put forward by Chen Xianzhang, but Zhan Ruoshui himself when studying with Chen Xianzhang, and it is precisely because of this unique insight that Chen Xianzhang found that Zhan Ruoshui was beyond ordinary people in learning, and spoke highly of his disciples, while also passing on the mantle of the Lingnan School to Zhan Ruoshui.

Zhan Ruoshui treats Chen Xianzhang more respectfully than his father.

Zhu Houzhao smiled.

He was proud in his heart, this cheat sheet typed, as if he knew exactly what you were going to say, and also knew what I was going to say next, is this a discourse? It's like memorizing the text according to the script.

How else to say that Mr. Zhang is awesome?

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "I think that what you said about 'recognizing the principles of heaven everywhere', although there is a principle of virtue, it is the pursuit of the principle of heaven with the principle of virtue, which is the principle of nature, which essentially coincides with the concept in science, but it is a different way of pursuing science, whether it is intentions or intentions, it does not go beyond the scope of science." ”

Zhan Ruoshui was directly pushed back by Zhu Houzhao, but he didn't expect it.

To say that at the beginning, he only relied on his identity to suppress himself as a prince, but now he realizes that in fact, this kid can compete with himself, and things other than his identity are terrifying.

The concept of "recognizing the principles of heaven everywhere" is not difficult to understand, Chen Xianzhang is not a master of mind, Chen Xianzhang himself is a physicist, like Wang Shouren, they are all in the process of studying science, and found that many of the so-called "heavenly cycles" of science are just a kind of contradictory concept, there is probably a kind of "the wind blows the leaves, the wind does not move, the leaves do not move, it is the heart is moving" Zen meaning, the heart does not move, the wind and leaves will not move.

By deduction, that is, a person's mind cannot understand the laws of all things in the world, so even if there are laws in the world, they are not laws.

The so-called truth in everything has become a pseudo-concept.

Zhan Ruoshui's "recognizing the principles of heaven everywhere" is also a matter of cognitiveness, but it is still about exploring the law of heavenly principles, and does not lead people to pursue virtue.

But Zhan Ruoshui is not a vegetarian, he said: ""Zhuangzi" cloud: 'The husband is happy, first should be the personnel, follow the heavenly principles, take the five virtues, should be natural, and then regulate the four seasons, Taihe and all things'. If there is no natural response, and if there is no conditioning for the four seasons, it will not become everything. ”

It means that the Heavenly Principle is still universal, and only by feeling it with the heart can we feel the existence of the Heavenly Principle and use it to educate the world.

The so-called Taihe and all things are probably included in this way to include everything in the world......

Zhu Houzhao still said unhurriedly: "The gentleman walks in his position." Rich and noble, noble and noble; Poor and lowly, poor and lowly; Su Yidi, line Yidi; Hardship is the same, and the walk is hardship. A gentleman is not complacent. The heart knows that everything is self-satisfied, and the heart is determined that everything is calm. To conscience, there is no reason. ”

After Zhu Houzhao's words were finished, the scene was in an uproar again.

If Zhan Ruoshui is still arguing about the principles of nature, it means that the study of the mind must add the principles of nature in addition to virtue.

But Zhu Houzhao made it clear here, what is unreasonable, as long as the gentleman can keep the bottom limit, even if he doesn't know your so-called heavenly principles, he can also stand on the world, but he ignores his conscience for the sake of heavenly principles, which is not in line with the teachings of the saints.

And Zhu Houzhao's "gentleman walks in his position" is one of the main points of the "Mean" in the four books.

You Zhan Ruoshui wants to quote the scriptures, what else do you say "Zhuangzi", I will directly move the Confucian sage out for you, and ask you if you are convinced?

……

……

The controversy at the scene entered the white heat.

On a question of psychology, the two sides were arguing, and everyone present seemed to have forgotten that this was actually the prince of the Ming Dynasty, just a ten-year-old child...... What he has seen and known seems to be much better than those who blindly admire Zhang Zhouxinxue.

The audience present also seemed to finally understand why the young prince was qualified to worship Zhang Zhou's teacher, because the prince seemed to have really comprehended the advanced level of psychology.

Otherwise...... Why is Zhan Ruoshui, the eldest disciple of the Lingnan School who inherited the mantle, covered with cold sweat?

Is he afraid of the identity of the crown prince?

If it's because of fear, then when you get on the court, you'll be afraid, and you'll be more at ease as the debate progresses.

But now it is obviously the other way around, and the more the debate has more beads of sweat on his head, which also shows that in this confrontation, Zhan Ruoshui is obviously down.

At this time, Sun Che and the three people watching the battle at the bottom of the steps were dumbfounded.

followed Zhu Houzhao all the way, although Zhu Houzhao has also participated in many discussions, but every time Zhu Houzhao's theory is so a few sentences, and they thought that Zhu Houzhao was the kind of ignorant child who "eats all over the world with one trick", and now they know that this prince is really stronger.

Why didn't he tell those people about this theory halfway?

If you can say it so deeply, who would dare to despise him?

Or does the prince think that there is no need to show his true level at all to learn fighting techniques with those shrimp soldiers and crab generals?

Zhu Houzhao stood on the podium, still talking eloquently: "Mr. Zhang taught me, 'There is no good and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and going to evil for good is a thing'. The truth of this world, there is no difference between good and evil, and there is no difference between right and wrong, but it lies in the concept of the human heart, life and death are impermanent, good and evil, and it is precisely because of conscience and selfless desires, and because of the beauty of dedication, it is a model of supreme virtue. I'm just a little bit of a superficial opinion, and I hope you'll get it from it. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao turned around and returned to the side of the viewing platform and bowed to Zhang Zhou.

Zhang Zhou and the others also stood up, and except for Zhang Zhou, the people around them hurriedly returned the salute.

At this time, Zhan Ruoshui was standing there, but he didn't know what to say......

It's not that he doesn't have a theory to play with Zhu Houzhao, but because ...... He also felt that this kid was reasonable, and the other party was still the prince, if he didn't have the full certainty of being able to argue with the other party, he wouldn't dare to speak casually.

Take a step back.

Even if he can argue with the crown prince, does he have the courage to say it?

As a lifter, in this kind of large-scale debate, he will suffer, because he knows that in the "reason" of this world, there is a "difference between respect and inferiority", as a courtier to argue with the prince, itself stands at a moral disadvantage, heaven and earth Jun is a teacher, the prince is equivalent to "Jun", if you argue with Jun for your husband, this itself is a big taboo in Confucianism.

While maintaining Confucianism and Taoism, but still destroying it?

So how can people recognize his theory?

So Zhan Ruoshui stood in a dilemma...... Either way, it's a loss; If you don't know how to respect the prince, you will also lose.

Lose-lose.

The beads of sweat on Zhan Ruoshui's head also show that he can't abide by his heart, and he still has to be disturbed by external objects.

……

……

waited for Zhu Houzhao to get to his seat.

Zhang Zhou came out and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, Chen Baisha's theory is very respected below, and in the process of perfecting my psychology, I also benefited from Chen Baisha's academic guidance. ”

"Huh!?"

The people present were in an uproar again.

Zhang Zhou actually took the initiative to respect Chen Xianzhang?

You also said that your own psychology has received some points from Chen Xianzhang's theory?

This is your chief disciple fighting for face, so that the world will know that your Zhang Zhou's mind is orthodox, and you yourself seem to have to depreciate yourself.

Zhan Ruoshui said: "Bachelor Zhang's comprehension of Confucianism is admired. ”

Even Zhan Ruoshui doesn't dare to say now that Chen Xianzhang's theory of mind has a role in connecting Zhang Zhou's psychology.

But after Zhang Zhou's statement, at least the face of the Lingnan School was saved...... If it weren't for Zhang Zhou's words, then probably he wouldn't have to return to Lingnan, and the school would have dispersed.

If you lose your studies, there is the prince on the other side, everyone in the world knows that your mind is just a variant of science, it is a hybrid, so what qualifications do you have to be a light sect?

Zhang Zhoudao: "There is no right or wrong in academic opinions, and there is no distinction between good and evil, which is exactly the model pursued by the study of mind. As the saying goes, there is no faction in the world of academics, and they are all just for the study of Confucianism...... Your Excellency, you have also been taught before! ”
