As soon as Xunzi's words came out, the atmosphere in the court immediately changed.

There is a tendency to completely crush new learning.

For a while, the backbone of the New Deal faction remained silent.

For example, Hu Yin, who was in charge of the Song Dynasty newspaper, could not refute it.

As for the political speculator Mo Chou, he stayed aside and was unwilling to come out at this time.

Arms Supervisor Wang Si came out and said: "Hundreds of crafts can be used for military defense and security. This is a pragmatic theory. Please don't discuss it in a biased way."

Liu Shen said: "It is true, and there is no need to enroll in a hundred jobs. In the past, when there was no new school, military and defensive cities could be established quickly. I have not seen the prominent role of the new school in this."

Wang Si added: "You may not have seen it, but you may not have seen it."

"This is nonsense!"

Wang Zonglio came out and said, "Do you have any soap at home? Have you ever asked the capital how much a piece of paper costs now?"

"Wang Taiwei wants to say that the workers at Wensi Yuan under Taifu Temple have increased the number of goods produced, making the goods cheaper?"

Wang Zonglio said: "Isn't this obvious? You still come to ask me?"

"Have any of the workers in the Wensi Institute ever gone to college?"

"Not really."

"Then what role does the university play in the College of Liberal Arts?"

Wang Zongliu said: "The head of the Institute of Liberal Arts is a graduate of the School of Engineering of the University of Tokyo."

Liu Shen said: "It's not enough to be a mere director. The Wensi Institute can produce more things because the number of workers has increased, and the craftsmen have not gone to university.

His tone suddenly rose, echoing in Daqing Hall.

Finally, he said in an extremely excited tone: "So, university is dispensable!"

"However, if the university wants to enroll all farmers, industry and commerce, it violates Xunzi's words to respect Qi and Feiqi. This is why Luo Jing University is in chaos!"

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere was completely stirred up.

The other ministers also began to say: "Your Majesty, please stop the new learning and restore the regular etiquette system."

Some ministers who had not said anything originally also joined in.

Groups have always been like this. When the new learning is in full swing, they praise the new learning.

But when the new learning encountered problems, there were people behind it who were adding fuel to the flames, and when the cause was grasped by the conservatives, they immediately began to defect.

When someone is shouting and supporting you everywhere, don't be happy too early.

How fervently they supported you in the beginning, how ferocious the flesh and blood they bite off of you in the end will be.

People who truly support you are often silent.

Regarding this matter, Qin Hui said in popular language: Truth? What is truth? It is just a little girl dressed up by others, pushed to the forefront by a group of clowns who have no independent opinions. Those clowns support this today and support that tomorrow.

.

He Li said loudly: "Quiet!"

Only then did the court slowly return to quiet.

The officials outside the main hall probably guessed that the atmosphere was already getting heated inside.

The prince glanced at Cai Mao, who shook his head slightly.

Zhao Guanjia still did not express his position.

At this time, Wang Shoude finally came out and said, "Your Majesty, I also have something to say."

"explain."

Wang Shoude said: "Where did the etiquette come from?"

His voice was clearly audible.

Everyone's eyes fell on him. At this moment, Wang Shoude seemed to have become the spokesperson of the Confucian sages.

In other words, it was as if he had transformed into a saint, and people seemed to see the brilliance of a saint in him.

He said unhurriedly: "Human beings are born with desires. If you don't get what you want, you can't stop asking for it; if you don't ask for it without measure and demarcation, you have to fight; fighting will lead to chaos, and chaos will lead to poverty. The former kings hated chaos, so

The rules of etiquette and meaning are divided into parts to nourish people's desires and provide for people's needs so that desires will not be exhausted by things and things will not yield to desires. The two will sustain each other and grow. This is the reason why etiquette arises."

After he finished speaking, the hall fell into an extreme silence, as if you could hear a pin drop.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Chunyou stood up and said, "Cai!"

He then said: "What Wang Shilang said is absolutely true. Everyone has desires. If they have desires, they will pursue them. If they cannot pursue them, they will fight. If there are fights, the world will be in chaos. How to determine the outcome and stop the fights?"

Everyone looked at Li Chunyou, who continued: "This is about the country, the survival of the world, this is the foundation of etiquette! As ministers of the country, we govern the world together with the emperor, and we should take the whole world as our own responsibility! We must not allow individual selfish desires to be used.

People have messed up the world!"

When he spoke, his emotions became excited and his voice became louder. At this moment, he seemed to be possessed by the souls of Confucius, Mencius, Xunzi, Zengzi and other Confucian sages.

Finally, he ended with one sentence: "Honor and envoys are the basis of etiquette, and the world will be at peace."

The courtiers were stunned for a moment, then came to their senses and immediately exclaimed: "Color!"

Wang Shoude was in the middle of the crowd and said: "If you dare, your majesty, please stop the new school immediately!"

Li Chunyou also said: "I dare to ask your majesty to stop the new school immediately!"

Many ministers also said: "Your Majesty, please stop the new study immediately!"

At this time, Prince Zhao Chen hesitated for a moment. He walked out and was about to speak. Zhao Ning suddenly slammed the sword at his waist on the imperial case: "Shut up!"

The emperor's voice resounded throughout the hall, instantly silencing everyone.

Everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and the hall suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze.

Prince Zhao Chen said: "Your Majesty, the Luoyang case has a great impact, and it was all caused by new learning..."

When he saw Zhao Chen coming out, Cai Mao almost jumped up.

Zhao Ning interrupted him: "Because of new learning?"

Zhao Chen said: "It was caused by the new learning. The new learning disrupted the etiquette system of the world and went against the way of the sages, so it led to chaos and unrest in the society!"

When the prince said this, those old-school ministers became even more excited.

"What a new student!" Zhao Guanjia walked down from the top and looked around.

"I didn't know that there were so many people in the court who were opposed to the new learning!" Zhao Ning's tone was as sharp as a sword, "You all hid it very cleverly!"

When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Gu Changzhi.

It means that he, a member of the New Deal faction and in charge of Gyeonggi Road's new school, actually switched sides at this moment.

What use do you have for such a useless minister?

Wang Shoude said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am doing this for your Majesty's sake!"

"For my country and the country?" Zhao Guanjia's expression has completely turned cold, "What a good one for my country! What a Wei Qi Feiqi!"

The emperor of the Song Dynasty did not wear a sword when going to court, but Zhao Ning felt that if he wore a sword, he could pull it out when he was unhappy to make himself happy.

He walked down, looked around, and continued: "Don't think that I don't know what Wei Qi Fei Qi means!"

"In the old days, Shun Fa was raised among the farmers, Fu Shuao was raised among the building boards, Jiao Ge was raised among the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu was raised among the scholars, Sun Shuao was raised among the seas, and Baili Xi was raised among the market people! These are all virtuous people.

!”

While talking, Zhao Ning had already walked up to Zhao Chen.

He continued: "Those who maintain Qi are not like Qi, they are virtuous!"

What he meant by this was that Wei Qifiqi did not mean that farmers and prime ministers could not be put on the same line. He also admitted that there are differences between people. The difference does not lie in temporary status, but in virtue and virtue.

ability.

Today Liu Shen, Gu Changzhi, Wang Shoude and others are talking about the theory of Wei Qi Fei Qi, which means dividing people into status categories and not overstepping the status categories.

For example, if a farmer is a farmer, he should farm. What kind of books should he read?

If farmers and officials were put together, wouldn't it be a big mess?

But what Zhao Guanjia means is that although a farmer is a farmer, as long as he is virtuous and talented, he can still get the opportunity to move up through education.

Liu Shen said: "Your Majesty! You must not do this! The sage said..."

"Shut up!" Before he could speak, Zhao Guanjia interrupted him directly, "The sage also said that there is no distinction between teaching and discrimination! Don't think that after reading the sage's book for two days, you dare to talk in front of me!"

"What you have read! I have read it! What you have not read, I have also read it!"
