Chapter 475 Who Changes Who

Chapter 475: Who changes who?

The dining table designed by Su You is very clever. There is a round table on the table. The dishes are placed on the round table and it will rotate with a slight push.

Wang Anshi only ate the dish in front of him. This allusion was also famous in later generations. Therefore, every time Su You waited for him to take his chopsticks, he would gently push the table and put another plate in front of him.

Wang Anshi was a master of Confucian classics, and today's scholars in the Song Dynasty are all trying to extract theoretical systems from Confucian classics.

Guanzhong was the first to open up Qi theory; Shu School emphasized emotion and pragmatism, and also accepted and released the elderly; and Wang Anshi's theory of temperament was quite similar to Shu School, and clearly proposed the unity of temperament.

Wang Xue believes that joy, anger, sorrow, likes and dislikes are innate, and there is no good or evil; and then they are expressed in behavior after being stimulated by the outside world, which is emotion.

The core of Wang Anshi's thinking starts from "Yi", which is also the reason why Su You was able to find the best in high school.

However, the Five Elements Theory in Wang Xue was being impacted by the Element Theory in Shu Xue, and over the years, the Element Theory began to gain the upper hand.

This was Su You's ingenious arrangement. Adhering to his character of always pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, he did not call it an impact, but a refinement.

For example, gold, humans have realized that it is no longer just a few common things, but should be called metal.

A few simple characteristics are no longer enough to summarize this element category. Its chemical reaction process reveals the complexity of material transformation, so the theory of five elements and vitality needs to be refined and corrected.

And this kind of complexity is more in line with the thinking habits of Song people. Things that are not easy to understand must be complicated; complex things must be worth studying; things worth studying must be good and useful, or

Said it could be used to show off.

This is the common thinking logic of today's scholar-officials in the Song Dynasty.

In terms of ideology, regardless of Guanzhong, Shuzhong or Jiangnan, they inherited Fan Zhongyan's "Qingli New Learning" thought, advocated Qi principles as the first, and opposed flashy and unrealistic. They all adhered to this aspect, so the general basis for everyone's discussion was basically the same.

The people at the table are all elites. As long as they don't talk about politics, they won't be able to hold them back if they start talking about it.

So the conversation lasted until the evening. Su You had only arranged one banquet, but now it became two banquets.

Just as it was about to turn on the lamp, Su You sent the three of them back to his boat.

Wang Anshi felt his throat was a little hoarse, so he asked his wife Wu to bring soup.

Wang Yu said: "Shu people are very luxurious. Today I have seen it. The Su family's food is indeed exquisite."

Wang Anli had a very good impression of Su You: "Su Mingrun said that this is not called luxury, and that everyone has the right to live a better life. The so-called beauty device is something that everyone likes, even if it is a master."

"If your contribution to the world matches them, this enjoyment will be reasonable;"

"If you are well matched and still save money to help others, this is a person who is above love and an act of a sage;"

"If there is no match, taking advantage of others for this enjoyment is just a matter of love. That is called extravagant desire."

Wang Yu sneered: "If you say this, then merchants in Sichuan can also become saints?"

Wang Anli said: "The study of Shu is to open eyes for merchants. According to them, the Master teaches without distinction, because he hopes that everyone will become a sage. Otherwise, why bother to educate the world?"

Wang Yu said with a smile: "Isn't it contradictory to ask merchants to restrain their desires?"

Wang Anshi said: "Yes, contradiction, but this contradiction is the core of Shu Studies. They believe that the development of all things is produced in contradiction. And the contradiction itself will always exist, but in the process of development, new

The new ones just keep replacing the old ones.”

Wang Yu was shocked: "Eliminate the old with the new! This... this is plagiarizing my father's ideas!"

Wang Anshi took a deep look at him: "The wise men in the world all have the same concerns. Moreover, Su Mingrun's theory is more profound and complete than his father's. How can it be plagiarism? At most, it is the same goal through different paths. Moreover, his theory is more solid and almost unbreakable.

, Xiao'er, don't say this kind of thing out of your mouth, it will make the Fang family laugh."

Wang Anli was a little worried: "Shu learning, Guan learning, and Luo learning are now considered to be of the same spirit. In the Weizhou Academy, Zhang Hengqu and Li Fu are vigorously promoting it among scholars, and the Lu brothers are promoting rural conventions in the countryside. Meishan

The Su family has a huge influence in the southwest... Big brother, if Su Mingrun is different from us... Isn't it a bit of a conversation today?"

Wang Anshi shook his head: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. I don't believe that people who can say such shocking words are people with treacherous minds."

"Didn't Su Mingrun's official career in the past six years prove the problem? He showed his talents in the most difficult place in the Song Dynasty and achieved outstanding results. He can be called a capable minister in the world."

Wang Anli sighed: "I can't say it now. I am in desolation and have no entanglements around me. I can only be regarded as a half-capable minister. Only if I can walk steadily in the chaotic court can I be worthy of the reputation of a capable minister."

But young talents are definitely there..."

Mrs. Wu came over with a drink of soup: "Father, son and brothers, please calm down. What kind of magic did Su Mingrun do? You can't stop it anymore and brought him over the boat?"

Wang Anshi picked up the soup and suddenly thought of something: "In the past, the banquet menu seemed rich, but I didn't seem to eat many of them. Why does Su Ming Runzhi's banquet today feel different to me?"

Wang Anli and Wang Yu snickered.

At this time, the old servant came in: "Bachelor, the county gentleman over there sent a gift to my aunt. It's a dining table. I don't know whether I should accept it or not?"

Wang Anli and Wang Yu immediately said: "Take it! You must take it!"



Su You also had a bit of a hoarse voice at this time: "There seems to be something wrong with my throat today."

Shi Wei came over with a cup of tea: "Drink this throat-clearing tea, and you won't even think about how much you said today."

Su You was a little confused: "Did you say a lot?"

Zhang Qi snickered on the side: "You guys never stopped talking."

Su You asked several young people: "The Wang family can be regarded as the elite of the times. What do you think?"

Zhang Qi said: "The two old men didn't think anything of it. That young man is pretty good and he is my favorite type in Goulan."

Su You asked: "Are you envious?"

Zhang Qi didn't dare to speak anymore. He was caught by Su You last time and was sent to Qingtang to run trade for a year. It was not easy for him to become white again.

Zhong Yi said: "Well, I talk a lot, and I can eat it all."

Su You rolled his eyes: "This is called a collision of ideas, full of passion and sparks... Yuan Zhen, what do you think?"

Su Yuanzhen did not show up today. This was also deliberately arranged by Su You. The boy has not passed the imperial examination yet, so he cannot have anything to do with Wang Anshi.

Su Xiaomei sent news that Taixue might have more students next year, and Su You planned to let Su Yuanzhen take advantage of the opportunity, oh no, the reputation, to prepare for the imperial examination.

Ouyang Xiu left, and now the big names in Bianjing's literary circles are Sima Guang and Wang Gui. The imperial examination has just passed, and there will be a political dispute in the court. It is best to refer to it as a novice, and don't label anyone else.

Su Yuanzhen had been eavesdropping, and now his vision had become clearer. After thinking about it, he said: "Mr. Jiefu's demeanor is admirable, but he seems a bit stubborn; Mr. Hefu is quite Confucian in nature; as for that

Wang Yuanze, always trying to compete with you Mingrun, is treating you as his opponent. I am curious, how many achievements does he have and dares to speak loudly to you? "

Su You waved his hand and said with a smile: "In academic discussions, don't bring prejudice and attacks. Wang Yuanze is also a rare genius in Confucian classics, but his temper is a bit cramped."

Su Yuanzhen asked: "Mingrun, today's conversation, is it... that the conversation is shallow and deep?"

Su You didn't take it seriously: "Xueshi Wang's character and integrity are highly praised by the world, so there is no need to worry about this."

After he finished speaking, he sighed: "It's not just a brief exchange of words. I just want to see if I can change his thinking. Now it seems..."

Su Yuanzhen asked: "How?"

Su You laughed and said, "I am overthinking it. Master, who is almost fifty years old, his ideological system needs to be polished countless times to become indestructible and unbreakable... It is enough for him to change my thinking."



In Bianjing, Han Qi was about to go out to judge Xiangzhou, so he entered the palace to give a speech.

As an emperor, Zhao Xu would of course have to make adjustments to ministers who were overly powerful. This was the emperor's instinct.

Su You not only admired Han Qi's political ability, but also admired him.

You can entrust an orphan six feet away, and you can send a life a hundred miles away. You cannot take it away during a big festival, and you are a gentleman. Su You thinks that Han Qi has really done it.

If the peach and plum trees remain silent, they will create their own problems. They will remain independent for seven or eight years. Even if they are not party members, they will become cliques.

Therefore, Zhao Xu not only wanted to target him, but also respected him very much in his heart.
