Chapter 80 The Four Virtues of Literature

 What is the voice of the heart? Xun Yu’s explanation is to use the analysis of "Yi" to express his ambitions and the principles he follows!

Xun Yu innovatively proposed to integrate the Five Elements into Yuan, Henry, Li, and Zhen, and gave it a deeper meaning. He also clearly extended it to the virtues of a gentleman, saying that only those who abide by such standards can be called

The gentleman.

At the same time, it is also proposed that the mission of a gentleman is to transform things, obey the heavens, benefit the people, and regulate customs. Finally, King Wen and Shang Zhou are used to allude to the current government, indicating that only a monarch with the four virtues can prosper, and a monarch without the four virtues will surely decline.

At this time, Xun Yu was like an unsheathed sword, showing his edge...

There was an uproar in the audience, firstly because Xunyu's remarks were very novel and very targeted in criticizing the government. Another aspect was because the contrast between Xunyu at this time and his previous performance was so great that many people couldn't believe it...



Because in the past, when Xun Yu was still young, Xun Yu's father Xun Ni was afraid of eunuchs, so he asked Xun Yu to marry the daughter of Tang Heng, the minister of the Central Committee!

She is a wife, not a concubine. In the Han Dynasty, if the male master was not at home, the wife could have the right of life and death over the family members and finances, but the concubine was just like a plaything with no rights.

It would be absolutely unacceptable if this kind of thing happened to other people, especially those who claimed to be the poster children of Qingliu. Are you kidding me? Do you want to marry a eunuch or a regular servant? Do you want to keep your reputation for the rest of your life?

Therefore, it stands to reason that Xun Yu must at least marry a member of the Qingliu family. How could he bring a eunuch's daughter into his family?

But Xun Yu just got married quietly and resignedly!

While people lamented that Xun Yu's father, Xun Kui, was short-sighted and ruined not only his own reputation but also Xun Yu's involvement, they also believed that Xun Yu was actually a weak man who could not achieve anything.

Unexpectedly, today, Xun Yu, who was on the high platform, not only showed no signs of timidity at all, but actually said such shocking words...

Fei Qian was not surprised by what Xun Yu said. After all, according to history, Xun Yu did what he said today, following the four virtues of a gentleman, and he violated the four virtues when Cao Cao

At that time, when there was a move to ban Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he expressed his clear opposition, and was killed by Cao Cao directly or indirectly...

Fei Qian saw Xun Yu's behavior and labeled Xun Yu like this in his heart.

But some people don't see it that way, and feel that Xun Yu may be trying to please others today.

An old man stood up, arched his hands arrogantly, and said in a loud voice: "Those who do it have natural health. Manpower is limited, but natural health is infinite. Only the saints can follow it. King Wen is good, and he can use the heaven. Shang

Evil is the body of the law and heaven. This is because of the impermanence of heaven and its endless changes. Humans do not name heaven! How can there be any talk of the four virtues?"

When everyone saw it, they found that the old man was actually Xun Wang, the younger brother of Xun Shuang and the fifth dragon of the Xun family.

Xun Wang was originally the person who arranged the first lecture. According to his seniority, he was Xun Yu's uncle. According to his qualifications, he was also a person who studied Confucian classics carefully. He was originally well prepared, but he was unexpectedly replaced by Xun Yu. Although he was

The head of the family, Xun Shuang, gave the order, but he was not happy after all, so he was the first to stand up and criticize——

Moreover, what Xun Wang said was more in line with Confucian concepts. His general idea was that human changes cannot keep up with the changes of heaven. Only saints, the so-called emperors, can follow the changes of heaven. King Wen imitated the effectiveness of heaven.

He truly understood the meaning of Heaven's Way, so he succeeded. However, Shang Zhou only imitated the appearance of Heaven's Way and failed to understand the spirit of Heaven's Way, so he failed. Therefore, Heaven's Way is changing all the time. The emperor and the people should comply with Heaven's Way instead of making mistakes for Heaven's Way.

Restrictions, how can there be any rigid theory of the Four Virtues?

After all, in the Confucian concept, the emperor represents heaven and is sacred. Whether it is King Wen or King Zhou of Shang, they are all emperors. The only difference is whether they can understand the will of God. Those who can understand will naturally do well, and those who cannot understand and only learn the appearance

God will naturally find a way to change people, and people like Xun Yu who impose four virtues on the emperor, in the eyes of older generations like Xun Wang, are as absurd as imposing restrictions on God.

As soon as Xun Wang finished speaking, there were noisy echoes. Apparently, many people still agreed with Xun Wang's words.

Xun Yu on the stage also bowed his hands to Xun Wang in salute, almost without pause, and immediately said after Xun Wang's words: "The sage of the heaven is sincere and has no rest, cannot be shaped by the sky, but can only be used by the sky, so Qian Yangjiao

Yao, each has its own place. A gentleman observes the heavens above and transports the heavenly bodies below. Every word and deed should be like this. According to the four virtues, if you are vigilant at night and if you are serious, your actions will be blameless."

——God is sacred. You cannot imitate the shape of God. You can only understand God’s intention. Therefore, each intersection in Qian Gua has its own place. Just like a gentleman, you must know how to understand God’s intention.

The purpose of the theory of the Four Virtues that I put forward to control the things that operate in the world is to allow gentlemen to have a standard to be alert to their words and deeds at all times, so that they will not make any mistakes.

Xun Yu very cleverly transformed the Four Virtues from the arrogant and arrogant demands made by heaven in Xun Wang's mouth into a code for a gentleman to warn his own behavior. In this way, it naturally fits with the righteousness of Confucianism, and there is no

Give Xun Wang a target to continue attacking.

Xun Wang snorted and couldn't find any flaws, so he sat down calmly.

Xun Shuang did not enter the venue at this time, but just stood outside the door and listened quietly. When he heard this, he smiled, turned and left - indeed there was nothing wrong with choosing Xun Yu. Since Xun Yu had already calmed down the scene, there was no need for it.

No more worries.

Fei Qian in the field looked at Zao Zhi next to him who was listening very engrossed, with a look of admiration on his face, but he just didn't understand, and was very distressed.

But even so, Fei Qian also understood that this first speech meant that Xun Yu would be the focus of discussion among the nobles along with his remarks about the Four Virtues. Naturally, this reputation would be gained, and it would definitely be turned over.

Soaring upward...

Alas, when will I be able to soar higher...

Why do we need to talk about the I Ching? Why not talk about Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought? At least I had to memorize it for a few days just to get sixty points...

If you really can’t talk about something metaphysical or metaphysical, it’s okay to talk about the theory of the unity of opposites in contradiction. At least you can show off a little bit what you learned from Hegel and Marx...

Fei Qian was thinking about it, and suddenly his face changed. This Xun Yu has been talking for so long. Will there be a break between classes later to give him some time to relax?

I drank two more bowls of corn porridge in the morning, and now it’s all gone. Something is wrong...
