As the most aristocratic yamen of the imperial court, the Hanlin Academy had no other sounds except the low sound of reading and the turning of books.
When you enter the yamen, there is a sculpture of the most holy teacher in front of you.
The ears are big, but the two wisdom teeth look very cute.
His kindness has made today's disciples forget what his original intention was.
Behind the statue, there is a thick evergreen pine tree, resembling the shape of a dragon and tiger, vigorous and powerful, and simple, providing a shade for the courtyard.
I heard that this pine tree was not planted here early in the morning.
The people of the Yuan Dynasty never really recognized the Confucianism of the Central Plains. This pine tree was the most luxuriant pine tree that was found after Zhu Yuanzhang, who was only King of Wu at that time, came to Yingtian and searched all over the south of the Yangtze River.
After getting the money and food from the boss, he transplanted it here.
It’s just a tree, but its political effect is unprecedentedly powerful.
It seems that as this green pine entered Yingtian City, the people's hearts in Jiangnan began to change, and Jiangnan Shilin began to send more scholars to Yingtian City.
Taking one last look at the green pine standing behind the statue of Saint Kong, Zhu Yunxi felt that if possible, as long as the Ming Dynasty needed it, the old man would ruthlessly uproot the pine and burn it in the sea of fire.
.
Walking closer to the Imperial Academy.
There were more and more Hanlin officials wearing green robes around them. Everyone was holding a scroll in their hands or had ink at the corners of their mouths.
Countless busy figures gathered in the open classrooms.
The dynasty needed to compile books and compile history for the previous dynasty, and all of this work was done in the Hanlin Academy.
When the officials of the Hanlin Academy saw the arrival of the emperor's grandson, although they were a little puzzled, they all stood there with proper manners and bowed to salute.
A few moments.
Zhu Yunxi found the figure of Hanlin bachelor Xie Jin walking in the Wenhua Hall today in a large courtyard at the back of the Hanlin Academy's Yamen.
I saw that the entire courtyard, wherever the sun could shine, was covered with unique ancient books that were difficult to find outside, including a collection of classics and histories, the Four Books and the Five Classics.
In addition to Xie Jin, there were many people who walked lightly among the piles of books on the floor from time to time, gently turning over the pages that had been exposed to the sun, and exposing the pages that had not been exposed to the sun. "I will see you, Grandson."
"See the Emperor's Grandson."
Someone noticed Zhu Yunxi's arrival and immediately bowed and saluted, with a slight tone of respect.
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and looked at Xie Jin, who was still fascinated.
Instructing everyone not to be alarmed and continue doing their own business, he walked behind Xie Jin himself.
Stretch your head and take a look.
It turned out to be "The Complete Works of Mr. Xiangshan"!
Zhu Yunxi's eyes moved slightly, he didn't expect that this gentleman would be so fascinated by this book.
Mr. Xiangshan was Lu Jiuyuan, a great Confucian scholar in the Southern Song Dynasty and a promoter of the theory of mind.
The Xinxue originated from Mencius and flourished under Cheng Hao. Lu Jiuyuan further developed the Xinxue and became a Confucian school that competed with Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism during the Song Dynasty.
If Wang Yangming in later generations can be regarded as the master of Confucian psychology, he can be called the last sage of Confucianism. Then everything was compiled on the basis of the predecessors of psychology represented by Lu Jiuyuan. Several officials from the Hanlin Academy who were posting books around saw that the grandson had come specifically to see Mr. Jie today. They looked at each other, waved silently, and cautiously exited the courtyard.
"Okay!"
Suddenly, Xie Jin slapped his thigh and shouted loudly.
Then I saw him plausibly saying with a moved expression: "The universe is my heart, and my heart is the universe! Invent the original mind, learn to know the original, and all the six classics are my footnotes!"
"The teacher's way is like the blue sky and the white sun, and the teacher's words are like thunder and thunder; the teacher's greatness is like the brightness of the sun and the moon, and the teacher's brightness is the movement of the four seasons; the teacher's words are as far as up and down for eternity, as far as the east, west, south and north.
!"
Jie Jin muttered words and was ecstatic for a moment, shaking his nails with his teeth and shaking his legs.
The movement of turning the pages of the book has become faster and faster, almost to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.
The corners of Zhu Yunxi's mouth twitched and he coughed lightly: "Brother Gentleman is very happy. Yu Boxheng's evaluation of Mr. Xiangshan, I remember it is word for word."
The last words of Xie Jin came from the evaluation of Lu Jiuyuan by Yu Ji, a great Confucian scholar in the pre-Yuan Dynasty.
Xie Jin, who was flipping through "The Complete Works of Mr. Xiangshan", shook his shoulders and turned to look at the emperor's grandson standing behind him with surprise on his face.
Xie Jin's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly and carefully put down the entire collection. He turned around and glanced at his colleagues who had long since disappeared. He bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, I'm here. If I don't check, it's a loss of welcome and a lack of etiquette.
Please punish me."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand: "Studying involves forgetting sleep and food, but it is not considered unethical."
Jie Jin blinked and watched as Taisun pointed at "The Complete Works of Mr. Xiangshan" which he had placed on the pile of books. He hesitantly picked up the book and brought it to Taisun.
Zhu Yunxi took the book, carefully turned over a few pages, and closed it in his hand: "Lu Jiuyuan learned from his heart, and he can be called a person who promotes it."
Xie Jin nodded, still feeling regretful in his heart: "My grandson left the palace today and came to Hanlin. I don't know why?"
Zhu Yunxi held the book in one hand and patted the cover with the other.
He came here today actually for another matter, but he never thought that he would find that this gentleman was so interested in the study of mind.
This is an unexpected surprise.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at the book drying area around him, with a smile on his face: "Is Bachelor Jie going to talk to Gu again?"
A look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Xie Jin's face, and he bowed and extended his hand to invite you: "I'm sorry, my grandson, please come this way."
The two of them walked out of the book-drying area, and there was a tea room next to them.
While Xie Jin was making tea, Zhu Yunxi put the "Complete Works of Mr. Xiangshan" on the table and read it carefully.
While waiting for the water to boil, Xie Jin raised his head and silently glanced at Taisun who was reading carefully in front of him, feeling increasingly puzzled.
Xie Jin was about to speak, but Zhu Yunxi had already spoken first: "Mr. Xiangshan's Six Classics are all my footnotes. This is a great virtue."
Xie Jin could only chuckle and echo: "Mr. Xiangshan's thoughts show his Confucian nature. Every time I read it, new ideas come to me. I wish I could live with him."
Zhu Yunxi raised his head and looked at Xie Jin, with a slight smile on his lips: "It's just that we think Mr. Xiangshan's remarks are not enough to explain the Xin Xue Yiyi."
Xie Jin wondered: "Does Taisun have some new and unique insights?"
Frowning slightly, Xie Jin thought for a while, but couldn't find anything that Taisun had done research on in the past.
"Although the heart is in one body, it actually governs the principles of the world; although principles are dispersed in all things, it is really no more than the heart of one person." Zhu Yunxi said quietly, but his eyes were always on the young Xie Jin in front of him. p>
Wang Yangming's words were spoken decades in advance, and he did not feel anything ashamed.
Xie Jin suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunxi, his eyes full of shock.
He observed Lu Jiuyuan's remaining writings and had some insights over the years. However, the thoughts of his predecessors were not enough to discuss the current situation. He hoped that he could use the thoughts of his predecessors to further develop the Confucian knowledge of mind, but he was always uninspired.
.
However, this time, the emperor's grandson, who had never been exposed to the study of Xinxue, actually made such grand remarks as soon as he spoke, which made Xie Jin's heart shake.
But Zhu Yunxi continued: "The intention is to be related to each other, that is, to be close to each other is one thing; the intention is to listen to words and move things, that is, to be heard and moved by words, is one thing. So I say that there is no reason outside the heart, and there is no thing outside the heart.
”
"There are countless truths in the world, and the predecessors have already learned a lot about them. But there is always no truth in everything in the world."
There was a trace of worry on Zhu Yunxi's face, and he whispered: "I think that everything should come from the original heart. Or in summary, it is a sentence to the conscience, the unity of knowledge and action!"
Finally, Zhu Yunxi explained one of the most important points of Yangming’s theory of mind and the starting point of the theory.
Xie Jin felt that his current state was very strange.
Even though the teapot in front of him was whining and hissing, it couldn't touch him at all.
"To the conscience...the unity of knowledge and action...the unity of knowledge and action..."
Xie Jin is like a little novice monk under the bodhi tree in front of the Buddha. In vain, he only hears the Buddha's enlightenment and murmurs to himself in a low voice.
Then, he looked at Zhu Yunxi with blank eyes: "How can knowledge and action be unified?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly and said the most standard answer: "Knowing when it is true and sincere is action, and when action is clear and aware, it is knowledge."
Xie Jin never thought that he would have such a wonderful experience today.
He immediately stood up and bowed to Zhu Yunxi with the full ancient courtesy of a scholar.
"My grandson is released from prison today, and cracks have appeared in the dilemma of my mind. I cannot thank you enough."
All you need to do is sort it out again, think carefully, and complete what Taisun said today.
Xie Jin believes that he will become a representative figure in the history of Confucianism who will definitely need a big book after Lu Jiuyuan in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Xie Jin even twitched his brows.
Maybe you can also become a sage who establishes a sect within Confucianism!
Scholars, reading about someone who becomes a sage is the highest honor.
Zhu Yunxi smiled and waved to Xie Jin to sit down: "It's just a few words of our understanding of government affairs."
Jie Jin, who had just sat down, raised his brows and asked in a low voice with an attitude of seeking knowledge: "Why does Taisun have this realization?"
Zhu Yunxi explained: "Nowadays, in the court, all officials take the articles of sages as their criterion, do not think about changes, and look to the past in everything. How can the country develop like this for a long time?"
"The Ministry of Household Affairs does not know arithmetic, the Ministry of Industry does not know construction, the Ministry of Punishment does not know Legalism, and the Ministry of War does not know military affairs. If things go on like this, do you think the world can really prosper?"
Jie Jin frowned: "My grandson reprimanded the two directors of the Ministry of Industry a few days ago..."
Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "Yes, if you are an official of the Ministry of Works but don't know the errands of the Ministry of Works, what use will the court use for such a person?"
"It's just a silverfish." Xie Jin snorted coldly. He could no longer look past those people in the court who were doing nothing but taking advantage of the emperor's salary.
Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly: "Well, today we watched the gentleman read through the collection of Mr. Xiangshan, and we had this realization. Everything in the world must be known and acted as one. See before you act, how can you not separate the five grains and the four bodies without diligence?
Can you live high in the temple and govern the world?"
Xie Jin has been completely substituted into a thinking set by Zhu Yunxi.
He nodded heavily: "No!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled with satisfaction: "After all, today I came to the Hanlin Academy to find Brother Da Shen. I just hope that Brother Da Shen can help me with something!"
