Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, Xiao Han did not urge them, but took the opportunity to turn around and gesture to Xiao Shisan in the corner.
When Xiao Shisan saw Xiao Han's gesture, he immediately trotted onto the stage excitedly. After hearing a few instructions from him in a low voice, he quickly ran out of the auditorium.
"What are they going to do?" Yin Can stood in the audience, watching Xiao Shisan's figure leaving in a hurry, feeling as if a kitten was scratching his heart!
I wanted to rush forward immediately, pinch Xiao Han's neck, and make him spit out everything.
"I think the truth comes from people's continuous learning, experience, and thinking!"
In the audience, someone finally broke the silence and spoke out again.
And it was obvious that the person who spoke this time was much more prudent and rational than the middle-aged teacher just now.
Xiao Han on the stage was shaken when he heard someone answer, then nodded and continued to ask: "What else?"
"besides?"
The person who just answered was startled, and there was a strange look in his eyes: "What do you mean? Isn't this how the truth comes from? Just like holding an umbrella when it rains, children are filial to their parents. Because of experience, they think about it and finally conclude.
Makes sense!"
When Xiao Han heard the question, he smiled and shook his head and said: "I didn't say you were wrong, but what you said was incomplete! There are many truths in the world, and there are many ways to summarize them. You only said part of it, and
What about some?”
"There are some more..." When the man heard this, he frowned and remained silent.
On the contrary, the middle-aged teacher who had just been exhausted seemed to have discovered an opportunity and sneered quickly: "Hey, you keep asking around to show how capable you are, why don't you tell me the rest!"
After that, he laughed proudly a few times, but not many people agreed, which made him seem a little embarrassed.
Xiao Han looked at the middle-aged teacher who kept his mouth shut, disgust flashed in his eyes.
This bastard made provocative words again and again. Although his words were not excessive, he was like a fly, which was really annoying! If it hadn't been in public, he would have called Xiaodong to go up and beat him! That's fine!
Let him know that having a big fist is also a kind of truth!
"Um, are you a disciple of Confucianism?" Xiao Han asked, squinting his eyes and suppressing the urge to beat someone.
"Yes!" The middle-aged teacher didn't know why Xiao Han suddenly asked this question, so he hesitated before answering.
The corner of Xiao Han's mouth raised slightly: "Then have you ever heard of a sentence in the Confucian classics, "One can learn by studying things?"
"Studying things to gain knowledge?" The sage said in "The Great Learning", "Studying things to gain knowledge, being sincere and upright, who doesn't know?" The expression of the middle-aged teacher who spoke became more and more contemptuous.
It's okay if Xiao Han wants to ask him a more difficult question! But asking him about the first volume and the first chapter of the Confucian classic: University Chapter, what kind of thing is this? Look down on him?
In fact, not only was the middle-aged teacher despising Xiao Han more and more, but other people in the auditorium also started whispering.
Those students were okay, they listened in confusion, and every sentence seemed to make sense! But those teachers, the teacher didn't think so.
Isn’t this court judgment too unreliable?
At the beginning, he raised such a big question and made them think about it, but what he said next were all irrelevant things. Could it be that this person's thinking logic is messed up?
However, Xiao Han didn't care what other people thought, he just stared at the teacher and asked: "Excuse me, what do these four words, "Studying things to achieve knowledge" mean?"
"This..." The middle-aged teacher was dumbfounded again, hemming and hawing for a long time, and in the end he didn't say anything.
Of course, this is really not his fault.
Xiao Han dared to ask this question because he knew that Confucius' theory of studying things to achieve knowledge had no annotation at all! The true meaning of this sentence was initially only passed down to Yan Yuan, Zeng Zi and a few other disciples, and not many people knew about it!
Later, these essential thoughts went through countless wars, and the First Emperor burned books and harassed Confucian scholars, and they were lost ever since.
It was not until Wang Mingyang's theory of mind appeared more than a thousand years later that he inherited this thought.
In the Tang Dynasty, except for the old man Kong Yingda who studied it, no one else could fully understand it with just these four words!
"If you want to be sincere in your meaning, you must first know what you know. To know things, Zheng Xuan, a sage of the Han Dynasty, once noted that "Ge means coming; things are still things. If you know the good deeply, then good things will come; if you know the evil deeply, then good things will come.
Then evil things will come; if things come according to people's wishes, this may be the end."
There was silence for a while, and soon, someone spoke up again in the auditorium. Xiao Han looked over and found that the speaker this time was Mr. Song from the academy.
As for the middle-aged teacher, when he saw Mr. Song coming out, he was immediately overjoyed and even straightened his waist a little, looking quite arrogant inside.
Xiao Han recognized Mr. Song and respected him. He bowed his hands to him from a distance on the podium and said loudly: "Sir, he is knowledgeable and has a strong memory. I admire him later."
However, as soon as Xiao Han finished speaking, Mr. Song bowed his hands in shame and returned the gesture: "The court ruled that it was wrong to praise him. In fact, I only know what he said, but I don't know why!"
When Xiao Han heard this, his favorable impression of Mr. Song immediately became even stronger!
Look, this is a truly educated person! He doesn’t pretend to understand, let alone bullshit!
A gentleman's magnanimity not only does not harm others' character, but also makes others admire him.
Seeing others being so humble, Xiao Han naturally couldn't be more arrogant: "Actually, Wan Sheng didn't understand this sentence too deeply. He just thought that in layman's terms, it means to study the principles and laws of things, and then summarize them into knowledge and principles.
"
"Determining the principles and laws of things? How? Can a dead object tell you whether it is true or not?"
Before Xiao Han finished speaking, the fly jumped out again, successfully showing its presence, and this time Mr. Song was beside him, which made him speak in a higher tone.
"Damn it, if the tiger doesn't show off its power, do you really think I'm Hello Kittiy?"
The muscles on Xiao Han's face twitched a few times, and at the same time he cursed in his heart! Where did Yin Can find this person? Are you stupid enough to go to the academy?
"Who said a dead thing can't tell us the truth?"
Saying this in disgust, Xiao Shisan happened to run back with a bunch of things. Seeing this, Xiao Han immediately waved to him to carry all the things to the stage, and at the same time smiled at the fly...
(The First Emperor of Qin burned books to trap Confucian scholars. In fact, most of the people he trapped were alchemists and magicians. The purpose of burning books was also to ensure that the books had the same text, thereby destroying private collections. Official collections were not included in this!
Of course, a policy that sweeps the world will naturally make mistakes. In the midst of this, there must be many Confucian scholars or real classics suffering.)
