Lu Chuan and the three of them were invited by Xia Yan to live in Xia Mansion, Wang Shouren spoke every day, Lu Chuan really listened to it for a few days, Jiang Bin, said that he wanted to listen, but he began to nap after listening, and in the end he wrote down two sentences.

A few days ago, I talked about the Book of Poetry, but on this day, for some reason, Wang Shouren talked about science as he spoke.

Lixue, also known as Taoism, is a doctrine with the purpose of studying the righteousness of the Confucian classics, that is, the so-called study of righteousness, which arose in the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty's science had the most profound influence on later generations was Zhu Xi, who took the theory of Cheng Hao brothers as the foundation, absorbed Zhou Dunyi's Tai Chi theory, Zhang Zai's Qi theory, combined with Taoism and Buddhism, and achieved his own science system, which was known as the masterpiece of Song Dynasty science. His merits were praised by later generations, and his ideas were revered as official studies, and he himself was mentioned alongside the sage of Confucius, called "Zhuzi". Emperor Yuan reopened the imperial examination in the second year of Qing Dynasty, and the edict was based on Zhu Xi's "Notes on the Collection of Chapters and Sentences in Four Books" as the standard. In the Ming Dynasty, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang posthumously recognized Zhu Xi as the ancestor, and the imperial examination was based on Zhu Xi's biography. Zhu Xue became "official learning" and "lifting child learning".

Zhu Xue emphasized that reason is the metaphysical that precedes all things, that reason is the eternal law of all things in the world, that reason is the bottom line of ethics and morality, and that reason is human nature in people.

Zhu Xue talks about qi, advocating that reason is living according to qi, one qi is two, movement is endless, movement is yang, stillness is yin, movement and stillness are divided into five elements, scattered into all things. From "change" to "transformation", from quantitative change to qualitative change.

Zhu Xue said that "knowledge is in Gewu", and Gewu Zhizhi is a saint. Poor heavenly reason, enlightened people, speaking holy words, through accidents, knowing the first and then the first, there is a saying that "between the grass and trees, and the use of utensils, what kind of knowledge is this!

The world's people respect Zhu Xue, Wang Shouren and Xia Yan are no exception, but in Lu Chuan, Zhu Xue is worthless.

First of all, if everything in the world can be reasoned with, what is that feeling? Secondly, according to qi creatures, isn't the movement of yin and yang copied from Taoism's "Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, three to all things, all things negative yin and embrace yang, impulsive and think of harmony". As for the prophets who follow the path and do not grope their way forward in the darkness and the unknown, where did they start a sect and establish a sect, where did they come to write books and make speeches?

Wang Shouren just talked about "the nature of heaven and earth" and "the nature of temperament", what is "meritorious to the Holy Gate", and what is "to make up for later learning", and before he could say two sentences, he only heard Lu Chuan snort coldly, with great disdain.

Wang Shouren just frowned, "Senior brother, what do you mean? Is it wrong for the foolish brother to say something?"

"There is nothing wrong with the senior brother, but in the eyes of the younger brother, it is very wrong. ”

Hearing this, Wang Shouren's face suddenly sank, "Senior brother thinks it's wrong, you might as well say it, let's theorize." ”

"What kind of person is Zhu Xi? He talked about 'preserving the principles of heaven and destroying people's desires', and he said that 'starving to death is a small matter of losing temperance and a big thing', forcing people to observe festivals, but he himself frequently took concubines, stirred flowers and grass, fought for the wind and was jealous, committed adultery with local women when he was lecturing in Wuyi Mountain, and even got involved with his daughter-in-law after his son's death. What kind of books can such beasts write? What kind of words can they stand? If they do, they are also obscene, and if they say it, they are all evil words! If you don't learn it, you don't learn it!"

Wang Shouren was so angry that he trembled, Xia Yan and Yan Song were so shocked that their faces turned pale, and even Jiang Bin woke up with a noise.

Wang Shouren forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "Senior disciple has always been a person who knows right from wrong, why is he convinced of fallacy in this matter and wants to deceive himself? If he is really a villain who is inconsistent in his words and deeds, how can Xin Qiji comment: 'The immortal will be famous for all generations.'" If he is really a person who deceives the world and steals his name, how can the students of the world worship him as a saint? Could it be that for hundreds of years, tens of millions of scholars have not been able to reach tens of millions of pairs of eyes, and only you, junior brother, can see clearly?"

Lu Chuan sneered: "Xin Qiji only talked about his merits, and did not mention his character. Citrus sentences come to the nest, and empty holes come to the wind. If he really does a good job, can others say that about him? Senior brother, I'm afraid some worship is too much, right?"

Wang Shouren took a deep breath, "Someone in Huzhou pretended to be you and did so many harmful things, do you want to claim the hatred and scolding of the people in the rivers and lakes?"

Lu Chuan smiled slightly, stood up, and walked towards the door.

Everyone thought that he was angry and left, but when he didn't want to reach the door, he stopped and said: "If I hadn't killed too much on weekdays, if I hadn't lingered on the banks of the Qinhuai River for a few days, who would have believed all the things he had done? I won't listen to today's lecture, and if I talk about poetry another day, I'll come again." ”

Everyone looked at the back of the door that had long disappeared and was stunned for a long time, Yan Song laughed, "Mr. will talk first, and I will go out to have a look." ”

As he spoke, he walked out, and Wang Shouren let out a heavy sigh, "Let's continue." ”

Jiang Bin stretched and simply lay down.

When Yan Song went out, Lu Chuan was sitting on the trunk under the porch, leaning his back against the pillar in a daze. When he saw him come out, he said lightly: "But the middle brother is not in the house to listen to the lecture, what are you doing when you come out?"

Yan Song smiled: "Actually, I don't agree with Zhu Xue and Lixue. ”

"Oh, but what Brother Middle is saying is sincere?"

"Song doesn't dare to coax the son, there are hundreds of schools, and I advocate the son more. ”

"'Sex is like a willow, and righteousness is like a tree. With human nature as benevolence and righteousness, as if the willow is the tower', the world's students are all Confucian disciples, do not learn the words of the two sages, but like the opposite of the confession, but also unique. ”

"I heard that Xiuyuan Gong understands "Poetry" and does not learn "Poetry", understands "Book" but does not learn "Book", understands "Rite" and does not learn "Rite", understands "Yi" but does not learn "Yi", understands Confucianism but does not learn Confucianism, understands Taoism but does not learn Taoism, understands Zen and does not learn Zen, through a hundred schools of thought and self-contained, can be described as a model of learning, although I have no chance to see, but today I saw Gongzi's remarks, shocking the world, and indeed has the style of Lingzun. ”

Lu Chuan laughed, "I haven't read any books, it's just a crooked theory." ”

"If you want to talk about reading a lot, Childe is naturally not as good as Mr. Yangming, I'm afraid it is less than Gongjian, but because of this, it can show the extraordinaryness of Childe. How many people who read from literacy to reading until they die, but they still only know worship, they can't write a word, they can't think of it, and they don't dare to think about it. At best, it's just a bookbag, not even a scholar. Childe doesn't read much, but what he has read has opinions, and what he has read is useful, if he devotes himself to poetry books, is it difficult to gain fame? Isn't it difficult to write books and talk about them?"

"Hey, be an official and be a gentleman, forget it in this life, I can't calm down when I'm used to wandering the rivers and lakes, and I can't sit still. ”

"That's just as well. ”

"But the middle brother walks steadily, he should also be half a Jianghu person, right?

"Childe's eyes are like torches, nothing can escape your eyes. Speaking of learning martial arts, I am somewhat similar to Mr. Yang Ming, both of them are learned for the purpose of strengthening the body, just because I live in Yuanzhou, I worship under the gate of Wuyi Palace, and the family teacher Yue Huasheng. ”

"Wuyi Palace, Tianyou Palm, Jiuqu Sword, and being a god in the Water Curtain Cave. ”

"A line of waterfalls out of the Xiabin, two ambergris sprinkled in the world. ”

The two chatted for a long time, and the day passed like this.

The next morning, Lu Chuan went to the study early after practicing the sword, he knew that with his senior brother's temper, he didn't take advantage of yesterday's words, and he would definitely talk about poetry today, and he would speak very deeply, he had to press him, and maybe he would take out the poem he made the day before yesterday to criticize, but this was what he couldn't ask for. That's a good thing.

He thought that he would see his senior brother when he entered the door, and he was lucky there with dark circles, but he didn't expect that the room was empty, but there was a painting on the wall. A poem is written in cursive, and at first glance it is written by Wang Shouren, and the poem is cloudy: "Those who know are not confused and not worried, and the gentleman is not worried? If you use it, you will give up and rest, and this body will float in a vast. The husband fell and shook the world, and he was like a poor prisoner regardless of bondage. The pearl of gold plays birds and birds, why bother digging the soil with bracelets? You don't see the old man of the east family to prevent tigers, and the tiger enters the house at night to take his head? The children of the west family do not know the tiger, and the newspaper rod drives the tiger like a cattle. The fool punishes choking and wastes eating, and the fool is afraid of drowning and throws himself first. Life is self-sprinkling, worrying and avoiding slander. ”

Lu Chuan looked at it for half an hour, nodded frequently, praised it, and wanted to criticize two sentences, but Wang Shouren's words have the style of Linchi Tongshen, and his own words are too vulgar, and writing it will only ruin this ink treasure.

When he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and Lu Chuan knew that it was Yan Song, except for him, only Yan Song had this skill.

"Brother Wei, come quickly!"

Yan Song took two steps to the house, "Childe is early." ”

"What do you think of this painting?"

"Yike...... This character is beautiful, not under Zhao Songxue, but it doesn't look like the handwriting of the son......"

"This is what my senior brother wrote, I want to criticize two sentences, but I can't get the words, I say you come: poetry is like eating pears, kissing and swallowing is unspeakable; ”

Yan Song raised the pen and brewed it slightly, and wrote down these two lines with a little brush.

"Childe, do you think it's okay?"

Lu Chuan suddenly gasped when he saw it, "This painting can be used as an heirloom when framed." ”

"Childe's evaluation of Mr. Yangming's words and poems is appropriate, you might as well comment on Song's words. ”

"However, the middle brother's words are strict and broad, majestic and broad, and can get eight points, and the atmosphere of the mountains and forests has added two points of color, which is a complete treasure. ”

Yan Song smiled and bowed, "Childe's vision can be described as a must, Song's words were not originally like this, Hongzhi retired in the eighteenth year and returned to his hometown, raised the mountain, and had nothing to do when he was full. ”

"But Brother Zhong, do you want to go back to Yuanzhou after a while?"

"Uh...... I was supposed to go back. ”

"That's good, I'll ask you one thing, after we leave, you find a skilled pasteur, frame this calligraphy, and send it to the Heavenly Master's Mansion to hand it over to Zhang Tianshi, so that he can hang it in my Guan Temple. ”

Yan Song smiled dumbly, "Childe really wants to be a family heirloom? It's not easy for you to find Mr. Yangming and me to write a few words? When my words are improved again in the future, I will definitely go to the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and I will write as much as Childe asks me to write." ”

"Alas, that's all afterword, I dare to guarantee that this word will not be able to write a second one no matter what, the mood and artistic conception are the most rare, this word is just right. Let's gossip less, and hurry up while they don't come! Otherwise, Brother Gongjin will be embarrassed to rob him if he sees me. ”

The two of them found a bamboo tube containing calligraphy and painting like thieves, pulled out Xia Yan's calligraphy and painting inside, and carefully put this painting inside, Lu Chuan let out the wind outside, and Yan Song trotted all the way back to his room. When everything was cleaned up, the two returned to the study, and then they breathed a sigh of relief, poured a pot of tea, and savored it.

About half an hour later, Wang Shouren took a square step, accompanied by Xia Yan and Jiang Bin, and walked over from the front yard, and when he entered the door, Wang Shouren frowned, stared at Lu Chuan and asked, "What about the words?"

Lu Chuan blinked his eyes and said with a blank expression: "What word?"

Wang Shouren knew that Lu Chuan must have done it, maybe the words were lying in the gutter, but Lu Chuan didn't admit that he had no choice, so he had to go, but he couldn't let the rest of the people see it, which was really a pity.
