And at the same time-

"Is that good?"

"After the words are consistent, what else will be tested in the imperial examination? How can real talents be selected?"

"And the consistency of words can eliminate the drawbacks he said, I'm afraid it may not be, Qin Xianao's articles and propositions I have always supported, but this time, he seems to be a little whimsical, isn't it that he was bewitched by Wang Anshi?"

More scholars fell into deep thought, and the people could close their eyes and cheer for Qin Xian, but they ...... This is not the time for blood and impulsiveness, once the vernacular reform is really implemented, what should they do, and what kind of terrible fate will they have?

Cheng Yi Mansion.

The backyard was silent, and the old man stood under the tree looking at the sky.

"Since Qin Xianao came to Luoyang, the teacher has been under too much pressure, and now he ......" Yang Shi shook his head, these days Cheng Yi has been standing in the courtyard all day, thinking about problems all day and all night, which is on the "Principles of Ethics" and others.

"Teacher, Sima Junshi's letter has arrived. ”

"Let's discuss the Principles of Ethics again!" Cheng Yi sighed, took the letter, and put it in his sleeve, "I admire Junshi, and I am still in the mood to study those." ”

"Teacher, why bother, Qin Xianao is a person after all, how long can he jump?" Yang Shi said.

"No, he's not alone anymore. Cheng Yi said lightly, "In the past few years, through newspapers and fighting with us again and again, he has won the hearts of many people, as long as he ascends to the heights, the disciples and protégés may not be less than us in the future." ”

Yang Shi was silent, and what Cheng Yi said was the truth.

"Rest assured, after all, he has taken the wrong path, and he can deceive the world for a while, but he can't deceive for a lifetime. ”

"The wrong way?" Cheng Yi was silent.

"He's really in the wrong direction, in the wrong direction. The more he does, the deeper he falls, and the more he makes mistakes, but once he comes to his senses......" Cheng Yi's voice was low, "We expect it will take more than ten years to get the Principles of Ethics, how long will it be for him? It's the team behind him, but it's amazing because we didn't get it. ”

"Why can?"

"What's the secret to how he came up with this?"

"If we have this kind of secret, and we are in the right direction, how can we be strong?"

Cheng Yi's chest rose and fell violently.

"His kind of efficiency, once he finds the right way, is likely to leave us far behind. Cheng Yi said in a deep voice.

Yang Shiwei frowned: "Why does the teacher need to grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige, the reason why Qin Xianao was able to come up with the "Principles of Ethics" so quickly. Or because he walked, Sima Junshi didn't say that doing scholarship was going against the current, so we were very slow, and Qin Xianao was going the opposite way because he was wrong, so he was sailing with the current, naturally fast. ”

"The mistake of Qin Xianao's "Principles of Ethics" is that he pays too much attention to details. Cheng Yi said lightly. "Su Dongcheng has a poem that is well written, 'I don't know the true face of Lushan.'" It's just because I'm in this mountain. Qin Xianao only looked at the eyes, just like standing in the Lushan Mountain and looking at the flowers, grasses, soil, and stones in front of him, to study. ”

"It's the same as the farmer who only has his one-third of an acre of land in his eyes. How can you win if you can't see the big picture?"

"The more Qin Xianao delved into it, the deeper he sank and the farther he was wrong. ”

"And Confucianism is to do everything possible to keep yourself from studying that grass. A flower, a piece of mud, but let yourself jump out of the middle, jump out of the one acre and three points of land, in order to appreciate that there is a better way to live in the world, jump out of Lushan, in order to see the true face of Lushan. Cheng Yi said.

"The teacher was thorough. Yang Shi said.

Cheng Yi's face was flat: "Having said that, but I've been thinking about it, I can figure it out, Qin Xianao is not a stupid person, he won't understand? Even if he doesn't understand it himself, won't anyone around him tell him this truth? This is impossible, but since Qin Xianao understands, why should he let his thoughts and eyes focus on one acre and three points of land?"

Yang Shi's eyebrows suddenly twisted, it was indeed impossible for Qin Xianao not to understand the mistake of paying attention to details.

Cheng Yi slowly opened Sima Guang's letter, recently Sima Guang didn't know what illness he was committing, he always liked to discuss with Cheng Yi the truth in "Principles of Ethics", but Cheng Yi's mind was not all on "Principles of Ethics", so he had to echo a few words in a short reply to Sima Guang who was excited.

"Huh?" Cheng Yi looked at Xinwen, and then was stunned, this time Sima Guang did not discuss the "Principles of Ethics" with him, but said-

"Qin Xian is arrogant and talented, how can he not know the reason why the blind man touched the elephant?"

"If you knowingly commit a crime, you will be ashamed. ”

"Qin Xian Ao once told a story by the West Lake, talking about the path to becoming an immortal, Uncle Zheng must have heard of it, and he thought that this alone was the root of his actions......"

Looking at this letter, Cheng Yi laughed heartily.

"Neutrality. Cheng Yi looked at Yang, "I heard that there have been a lot of things in the academy recently, and many people are secretly reading and studying Qin Xianao's books?"

Yang Shi's face changed: "Teacher, although there are such people, they are only a few, and the disciple has been strictly ordered to deal with this matter, and the black sheep will inevitably be eliminated." ”

Although Cheng Yi, Sima Guang and others spoke cleverly and beautifully in the newspaper.

But the facts are there, they use the "Theory of Tools" to govern ethics, no matter how hard they work, it doesn't have much effect, Qin Xianao can easily come up with the huge "Principles of Ethics", and the quality and content of the book completely leave behind the ethics of Confucianism.

Plus.

Qin Xianao's "Theory of Tools" ruled the "Geometric Original", but the two reward questions, they Confucian, but their students have not been able to complete it so far.

With these stark contrasts.

As long as they are really assertive, how can they not doubt it? Therefore, many students in Luoxue's sect, Yichuan Academy, and Lizheng Academy privately admired Qin Xianao, and they were also studying, using Qin Xianao's methods to study, but they disdained Confucianism.

If you just study Qin Xianao's doctrine, how can you tolerate suspicion of Luo Xue?

"Clear, clear, what's the point!" Cheng Yi said with a smile.

Yang Shi was stunned for a moment, and glared at Cheng Yi: "Qin Xianao's path is wrong, and those people are ......."

"Don't worry, the way of learning, ideological things, can not be suppressed by coercive means, they want to study, if they want to recognize Qin Xianao, let them learn, to study, and even we can encourage everyone to seriously study the "Principles of Ethics", and encourage the use of "Tool Theory" to govern learning. ”

"Ahh

Cheng Yi smiled all over his face: "Sima Junshi said it well, a person just looks at it from a distance, jumps out of Lushan, and although he can get the whole from a high altitude, this whole is also imperfect, because you haven't seen flowers and grass, how do you know what that flower and grass are like?"

Yang Shi shuddered, and his eyes flashed with a light of enlightenment.

"Qin Xianao is wrong, and we are also wrong!" Yang Shi said.

"That's right. Cheng Yi nodded approvingly, "We are blindly seeking to be big, all the sons of the hundred schools, Shi Dao Biqiu jumped out of Lushan to see Lushan, Qin Xianao must have discovered this flaw, so there is this systematic move." ”

"This is terrible!"

"It is wrong for us to blindly seek to stand in the sky and look at Lushan, and it is also wrong for Qin Xianao to blindly go deep into Lushan to explore Lushan. ”

"Qin Xianao didn't explain, didn't refute our interview, presumably he was also waiting, waiting for us to find out for ourselves. Cheng Yi said heartily and smiled, "This time, I admit his love again, but we don't need to correct the interview in the newspaper." ”

"Why?" Yang Shi was puzzled, Cheng Yi has always been a person with high morals, since he found out that he had said the wrong thing, it stands to reason that he ......

"Because there is no need, as soon as Qin Xianao's actions come out, there are many more people in the world who believe in him than in us, if we still go up and admit our mistakes, won't we drive people to his side, and then, yin and yang will be out of balance, and we will have to worry about it. ”

"Qin Xianao must not want to exterminate my Confucianism, so he is silent. Cheng Yi sighed.

"Teacher Mingjian, huh?" Yang Shi looked at the gate of the courtyard.

"Mr. Yang, father, a new newspaper is here. "A middle-aged man walked in," there is another article by Qin Xianao in this issue, but it is not an interview with his father, but a manifesto. ”

"Manifesto?"

By the way, Wang Anshi also has an article published in the newspaper, which is not much different from the meaning of the declaration. ”

"Wang Anshi also has it!"

The smile on Cheng Yi's face disappeared suddenly, and Yang Shi also felt a little headache, for Wang Anshi, before he changed the law, they were all very trusting, but now, what he was most afraid of was Wang Anshi.

Cheng Yi and Yang Shi took the newspaper and flipped to the front page.

"Consistent words?"

The two of them looked at each other, and after quickly understanding what they were going to do, their brows furrowed slightly.

"All in the vernacular?"

"Vernacular is not very bad for academics, Qin Xianao's "Principles of Ethics", which is in the vernacular from beginning to end, is particularly beautifully written, if it is written in classical Chinese, I am afraid it will be more laborious to read. ”

"Although there are benefits, it is impossible for Qin Xianao not to see the obvious flaws in it, so why should he be like this?"

If Cheng Yi saw such a suggestion in the past, he would directly throw it into the garbage heap and disdain it, after all, there are many inconvenient and inappropriate places in the vernacular reform at this time.

"Qin Xianao has always been thinking long-term, we can clearly see it, it is impossible for him not to know, so he has to ...... like this" The two of them read the article in the newspaper carefully with full attention. (To be continued.) )
