Everyone was silent for a while, and then started discussing.
Some people think that the beginning of the day is near, some think that the middle of the day is near, and some think that it is not worth discussing.
At this time, Feng Qingyan frowned and pondered. If this world was like his previous life, it could be said that it was closer to midday. However, he was not sure whether this world was the same as his previous life, a planet suspended in a huge universe...
…
Also, do the two of them use the sun as a metaphor for the current princes?
If so, he has no answer.
He doesn't know much about the world yet, so how can he answer it? If he can answer it, it will be able to resolve the current disputes among the princes.
This is a problem that no one can solve.
"Can a gentleman decide?"
The man smiled when he saw Feng Qingyan silent for a long time.
At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Feng Qingyan, and many people were full of expectations, hoping that the gentleman could answer.
Isn’t it that a gentleman can’t answer?
Some people are secretly worried.
But think about it, what both of them said is reasonable, and it is indeed difficult to decide who is right and who is wrong.
"Can it be that Feng Sanding, who is famous all over the world, can't do it?" The man's friend said with a smile. At this time, both of them were standing, very eye-catching.
"Aren't you in trouble? Even a saint might not be able to solve it."
Someone frowned and said, vaguely guessing what the two of them meant.
"Yes, this question can be said to be far or near, and even a sage cannot answer it. Unless it is measured in person, how can the sun be measured? You must know that sea water cannot be measured, let alone the sun." Someone said, "You two can't measure it.
It's just sophistry, just like the eye cannot see the hardness of the stone, but can only see the whiteness of the stone, so it is not hard; the hand cannot touch the whiteness of the stone, but can only touch the hardness of the stone, so it is not white. From this, it can be inferred that the stone is hard.
White cannot coexist, so they are separated from each other. This is wrong..."
At this time, everyone nodded, thinking that it was wrong to argue about distance and distance based on whether it was hot or cold.
"Does the gentleman think so too?"
The man asked again, frowning slightly, seeming a little disappointed.
Taoism advocates tranquility and inaction, and opposes the emergence of Confucianism, believing that the more Confucianism saves people, the more chaos it will cause.
Since Confucianism cannot change the status quo, why bother?
Is this what they mean?
Perhaps he was overthinking it. Feng Qingyan looked at the two of them carefully. If he just said "I can't decide", he might not be able to continue the three-day discussion.
This will not only damage his reputation, but also affect his plan to kill Uncle Xun Bei.
Are these two guys here to cause trouble?
At this time, Feng Qingyan pondered for a moment and then said: "Before I answer, can I ask you two a question first."
"Excuse me, gentleman."
The two looked at each other and said.
The two of them did have the intention to cause trouble, and they did use the sun to represent the princes of the world, and the time to be big, small, cold, and hot to represent the disorder of the world.
To ask this question is to ask if Confucianism has any solution to it?
If there is no solution, then what is the use of Confucianism? What is the significance of the existence of Confucianism? It is better to do nothing like Taoism and let it develop...
Of course, what they asked was deeply hidden.
Few of the people on the east slope could guess the deeper meaning, thinking that it was just the sun approaching and the sun far away.
Some Confucian disciples vaguely saw it and secretly worried about Feng Qingyan.
If you can't answer it, won't you be laughed at by Taoists?
But who can answer this question?
All the saints are unable to answer.
Fortunately, the scholars on Dongpo were mainly from the Zhou School, that is, Zhou School.
For various schools and schools, Zhou Xue is a traditional school. Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism, Law, etc. all emerged after Zhou Xue...
Zhou Xue was not as hostile to Confucianism as Mo Fa, but was somewhat close to it.
Moreover, after a long period of development, Zhouxue gradually integrated into Confucianism, and the two became closer and closer.
“At the beginning of ancient times, which came first, the chicken or the egg?”
As soon as Feng Qingyan's words came out, not only the two people were stunned, but also everyone on the east slope was stunned.
this problem……
Good question.
"Of course the chicken came first," someone blurted out.
"Without eggs, how can there be chickens?" Someone immediately retorted, "Of course, there are eggs first and then there are chickens."
“If there is no chicken, how can there be eggs?”
“Without eggs, where is the chicken?”
Dongpo suddenly became lively, and people were arguing about which came first, the chicken or the egg.
"I would like to ask you two, which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
Feng Qingyan asked with a smile.
The two of them frowned. This question was impossible to answer. It was even weirder than Benri.
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? I'm afraid we have to explore and discuss the origin of life and the universe and the nature of the world.
I am afraid that only saints can solve this problem.
Even the saints cannot understand it.
At this time, everyone looked at the two of them to see how they would answer.
Some people couldn't help but laugh. The two of them used the sun to embarrass the gentleman, but they didn't know that it was really wonderful for the gentleman to answer with eggs.
"We can't answer that."
After a while, the two of them had no choice but to say, frowning, regretting letting Feng Qingyan ask the question. Now that they couldn't answer it, how could they have the nerve to embarrass the gentleman again? However, if they didn't continue to ask, they would really have some trouble.
Not reconciled...
The two of them looked at each other, pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Can a gentleman make a decision?"
Everyone frowned when they heard what the two said.
However, many people are curious about how Feng Sanding will answer, and as time goes by, some people gradually see the problem.
I'm afraid it's the two disciples of Taoism who are attacking Feng Sanding.
However, even if Feng Sanding loses, the two Taoist disciples also lose, so everyone is considered a tie.
"I can't decide."
Feng Qingyan shook his head, then stood up and said: "The distance between the sun and the sun is like the world, like the holy road. Although the road is long and long, I will search up and down."
At this time, everyone was stunned, muttering silently.
"What the gentleman said is true." At this time, someone couldn't help but loudly said: "The distance between the sun and the sun is like the world, like the holy road. Although the road is long and long, I will search up and down."
Those who saw the deep meaning of the two Taoist disciples couldn't help but look at Feng Qingyan in amazement.
This answer is truly amazing.
In other words, although Confucianism has no solution yet, Confucianism will not give up and will continue to explore solutions...
And it can have multiple interpretations.
In the eyes of different people, it will have different meanings.
At this time, the expressions of the two people changed, and they bowed to Feng Qingyan and left the east slope. This answer was indeed beyond their expectations, and they had never thought of it...
In their guess, there is only decision or no decision.
Who knew Feng Sanding would answer like this?
Moreover, this is indeed what Confucianism currently does...
Not only Dongpo, but also many people in the martial arts community were surprised by Feng Qingyan's answer. When the two disciples asked the question, many secretly guessed the deeper meaning and tried to think about it.
