The first thousand two hundred and seven chapters are torn! (3)
Zhu Wen, who took the stage after Yang Hui, was undoubtedly much more exaggerated than Yang Hui.
He wore a strange Confucian crown.
You say it's a Confucian crown, right? But it doesn't look like it.
Because the Confucian crowns at this time still retained the style of the crowns and hats worn by Confucian scholars during the Warring States Period.
There is a very obvious difference from the Confucian crowns of later generations, especially those of the Song and Ming Dynasties.
Although it still has a high front and low back shape, it is hollow in the middle.
Therefore, back then, Liu Bang was able to take off his hat as a Confucian scholar and urinate in it.
However, the Confucian crown worn by Zhu Wen has the front end tilted forward, clearly imitating the shape of the Liu family crown that Liu Bang loved.
It looks nondescript.
But if you want to say that it doesn't look like a Confucian crown, his hat still retains many of the basic structure and shape of a Confucian crown.
For example, the front is high and the back is low, for example, the hat is hollow in the middle.
Not to mention the officials, even Liu Che shook his head when he saw it.
This is Shiqu Pavilion. If your Xunzi school spreads this idea, where will the country’s face be put?
But Ji An, who was serving Liu Che, promptly explained to Zhu Wen: "Your Majesty, Xunzi's school all wears this New Confucian crown. It is said that its intention is to distinguish it from other Confucian schools to show its identity.
, This is not the wine of Gaoyang, you are just a disciple!"
Liu Che was relieved after hearing this.
The concept of Gaoyang wine and disciples is indeed the biggest obstacle encountered in the development of Confucianism today.
You can imagine a scene like this: a Confucian scholar is debating with people from other schools of thought.
No matter how eloquent the Confucian scholar is, how profound his knowledge, or how noble his morals.
And how unbearable his opponent is.
As long as you master this trick, you can definitely make that Confucian scholar speechless.
For example, this Confucian scholar said: "Confucius said Cheng Ren, Mencius said Qi Yi..."
"You Gaoyang wine, are you here?"
The Confucian scholar added: "If you gain the Tao, you will get a lot of help, but if you do not get the Tao, you will get little help..."
"You Gaoyang wine, are you here?"
"The Master said..."
"You Gaoyang wine, are you here?"
Basically, as long as you give up moral integrity, Confucian scholars will never be able to defeat this joke.
The reason is very simple. This is the golden words of Emperor Gao, the founder of the Han Empire.
Do Confucians dare to deny it?
Today, with the revival of various schools of thought, especially the Mohist school, the re-emergence of the Zajia school and the strength of the Legalist school.
This Gaoyang wine, with just four words, has become the Achilles heel of all factions of Confucianism.
At the top, everyone is a gentleman and knows how to show respect and integrity, so this problem may not be a big one.
But at the grassroots level, especially those areas where Confucianism is not dominant.
Confucian scholars were embarrassed and defeated thousands of miles away in front of this trick.
Now, the Xunzi school has chosen to improve the Confucian crown. This may be both their own style and the reason why they really can't stand being beaten easily by someone with Gaoyang wine and just four words.
Liu Che was also thinking, a little funny.
Who would have thought that Confucian scholars, who were so powerful in later generations, dominated the academic world, monopolized ideas, and were omnipotent, would be in such a miserable situation today?
Even, to put it bluntly, if it weren't for history, Emperor Wu used his imperial power to personally act as an athlete and referee, and with the support of the Legalists, he made up for the last shortcoming of the Confucian scholars.
Otherwise, Confucianism would never have the chance to become the hegemon in the Han Dynasty that influenced national politics, influenced the country, and determined ideology.
Not to mention becoming the only supreme one in Song and Ming Dynasty.
But history is so ridiculous sometimes.
What you think is impossible turns out to be true!
……………………
Zhu Wen stood on the stage and looked at the audience.
Different from Yang Hui.
Zhu Wen was a serious member of the ruling class and was a lord.
Although his father Zhu Jian committed suicide, his status was not affected at all.
His elder brother Zhu Sheng even once reached the rank of Zhongdafu during the Taizong Dynasty, and later went on a mission to the Xiongnu, because the old Shanyu, under the instigation of Zhongxing Shuo, deliberately found trouble, insulted and humiliated him.
Zhu Sheng couldn't bear the insult, so he cursed his old superior Shanyu, and he took the opportunity to kill him, leaving Shanyu's court covered with blood!
In history, Zhu Wen's son Zhu Shi was even good friends with Ma Qian of Taishi Company, and they grew up naked.
Later, Tai Shigong wrote historical records, and many materials and secrets were provided by Zhu Shi.
This fact was recorded in the historical records by Tai Shigong.
Today, history has naturally changed beyond recognition.
Xiao Zhu Shi can no longer become a child with Tai Shigong.
Because his father left Yanzhao and joined the Xunzi school.
Moreover, his behavior is getting closer and closer to Xunzi.
Who is Xunzi?
Of course he is a genius!
Zhu Wen is also a genius!
Geniuses always think differently from ordinary people.
Just like in those days, countless people felt that what Mencius said was good, what Mencius said was wonderful, and Mencius was simply a great sage!
However, Xunzi just scoffed.
I thought that Mencius and his teacher Zisi were just talking eloquently and made no contribution to the country, nation or academics!
Mencius’ pursuit was to have everyone in the world follow Yao and Shun.
But Xunzi did the opposite.
Xunzi wanted everyone in the world to become Yu the Great!
Yao, Shun, and Yu were all three kings!
However, what Yao and Shun left behind were stories of virtue and chicken soup.
And Dayu left behind the Nine Cauldrons to suppress the world.
He left behind a legacy of flood control that will be remembered for eternity!
This is the difference between Mencius and Xunzi.
Of course, the differences don't stop there.
These two factions, like the famous idiom in history, use the spear of the son and attack the shield of the son, facing each other tit for tat.
Xunzi's biggest problem was that his disciples all ended up embarking on their own different paths.
No one inherits and promotes his knowledge and ideas.
From an educational perspective, Xunzi was ten thousand times more successful than Mencius!
Among Xunzi's disciples, Han Feizi, the last master of Legalism, appeared.
There is also Li Si, the destroyer of the Qin Dynasty.
There is also Zhang Cang, a generation of Han family who planned the prime minister and used mathematical principles to govern.
Even among his disciples and disciples, there were Confucian giants such as Shen Gong and Han Ying.
but……
From the perspective of the continuation of the school, Xunzi failed.
He didn't have any disciples who worshiped him beyond measure.
After Xunzi's death, his disciples each embarked on their own path and created their own world.
As a result, there is no one smart, strong and capable enough to inherit his mantle.
This has to be said to be sad.
Fortunately, today, nearly a hundred years after Xunzi's death, a group of aliens who, like Xunzi, feel disgusted and dissatisfied with the existing Confucian faction, have joined forces to raise Xunzi's banner again.
Resurrect this school of thought.
Xunzi's ideas, thoughts and theories have re-entered the eyes of the world.
Zhu Wen is such a person.
He has witnessed the chaos within Confucianism and the faces of the giants since he was a child, and has seen clearly the true face of moral gentlemen.
This made Zhu Wen very depressed for a time.
Until, the Maoling Library was established.
This gave him his first exposure to Xunzi's works.
Xunzi's thirty-two chapters opened his eyes and fascinated him deeply.
Soon, he met more like-minded comrades.
Out of dissatisfaction with the existing factions and ideological systems of Confucianism, these people re-established the Xunzi School.
And within four years, it developed into a huge school with thousands of members, with influence spanning Yanzhao and reaching Sanhe.
From the establishment of the Xunzi School to the present, Zhu Wen and his comrades are scholars who have grown up in debates and matured in struggles.
He glanced slightly in the direction of the Chongmin School and the Simeng School, and snorted in his heart: "A country chicken or a tile dog, they are not worth mentioning!"
In the eyes of Xunzi’s disciples, there is almost nothing right about Mencius’ thoughts and theories!
What is it about the right way to get a lot of help and the bad way to get little help?
Why is it that when Heaven assigns a great responsibility to a person like this, his bones and bones must first be tortured and his body and skin starved?
What kind of human nature is good?
Why should those who work hard govern others, and those who work hard should govern others?
What nonsense!
If this was not Shiqu Pavilion, Zhu Wen could hardly help but want to share his knowledge in this aspect with the Simeng School and the Chongmin School, change their three views, and make them realize how wrong they were!
As for other Confucian schools, none of them was attractive to Zhu Wen.
This is not because there is something wrong with the theories of these factions, or because their academic achievements are too low.
In fact, Zhu Wen felt that compared with what he had learned, everything else was useless!
Clearing his throat slightly, Zhu Wen said into the microphone: "Who are the Confucians? Generally speaking, the world is the same. If you are poor, you will be independent and noble. The sky cannot die, the earth cannot bury it, the world of Jie Zhi cannot be polluted, Zhongni, Zigong, that's all.
…”
The seemingly plain words contained murderous intent.
The faces of many Confucianists in the audience changed.
the reason is simple.
Zhu Wen said: "Zhongni, Zigong is the same".
Zengzi, Zixia, Zisi and Mencius were all expelled from the ranks of Confucianism.
At least, he expelled the orthodox successors who passed on Confucius’ thoughts.
This is intolerable!
Many people are furious!
The other schools of thought happily moved a bench and watched the show nearby.
Some people even helped.
For example, the people of the Mo family did not mind the excitement and commented with a smile: "Although Zhongni is not very knowledgeable, Zi Gong among his disciples is an outstanding person!"
Mr. Zi Gong was one of the early followers of Confucius.
The ten sages of Confucius of later generations. The real author of "The Analects of Confucius"!
Ran Yong Ran Zi Gong is also called Zhong Gong.
During his lifetime, Confucius once publicly praised him and said: Yong can also make the south!
When he was about to die, he even praised his disciples: "You are so virtuous and Yongye, you are far superior to others!"
This is actually entrusting his mantle to Mr. Zi Gong.
Mr. Zi Gong lived up to Confucius's expectations. He led his fellow disciples to compile Confucius's remarks during his lifetime and compiled them into the book "The Analects of Confucius". Not a single word was deleted or deleted in the entire text.
Of course, other factions today would definitely not think so.
For example, Gongyang, Guliang and Zuo Zhuan will definitely think that Mr. Zixia is the successor of Confucius.
However, Lu Confucianism, Chu poetry, and Han poetry all definitely believed that Zengzi was the successor of Confucius.
As for the Simeng school and the Chongmin school, they must adhere to the Confucius-Zisi-Mencius system handed down from generation to generation.
The Xunzi school firmly believes that only Zi Gong is the only successor to Confucius.
Everyone else is fake, and they all have attempts to tamper with Confucius and distort Confucius' thoughts, and even the facts!
There must be a lot of whipping and crusade!
In the eyes of future generations, this matter may be just like this.
But nowadays, it is a big issue related to right and wrong, the correctness and universality of one's own knowledge.
It is the key to the survival of the school.
As the saying goes, names and tools cannot be faked!
The country is like this!
Such is the government!
Such is the family!
The same goes for schools of thought!
Therefore, for a moment, the atmosphere in the entire venue became somewhat solemn.
If there weren't guards from the Yulin Guard suppressing him everywhere, I'm afraid that just this sentence would start a fight within the Confucian family.
Now, although there is no fight.
But it's almost there.
Except for the Korean Poetry School and the Chu Poetry School, almost all the giants and disciples of the other Confucian sects looked angrily.
Everyone was yelling in their hearts: "Fuck you!"
If it weren't for the fear of being kicked out, someone would definitely jump on stage to duel with Zhu Wen.
But Zhu Wen was not affected at all.
He still said unhurriedly: "In today's world, Confucian scholars are not like this!"
“Someone chattered with great words, or talked about the three kings!”
"Don't you hear: If you don't accumulate steps, you won't be able to reach a thousand miles; if you don't accumulate small streams, you won't be able to become a river?"
"No matter how great the way is, it will not be accomplished; no matter how small the task is, it will not be accomplished!"
"Therefore, when a sage king governs the world, he must do everything personally, no matter how big or small, and then the world will be governed!"
"Dayu controlled the floods and passed through the house three times without entering..."
Having said this, Zhu Wen glanced provocatively at the entire Confucian faction giants.
The provocation is very strong!
However, this is precisely the fate of many people.
This is also the shortcoming of most Chinese scholars!
On paper, everyone is Sun Wu.
But once put into practice, even Zhao Kuo may not be as good as him.
At that time, Zhu Wen witnessed this and became angry.
Everyone talks loudly about the rule of the Three Generations.
Who will develop today?
Who cares about Li Shu?
Who will embrace the world again?
People who are addicted to the fantasy of three generations and cannot extricate themselves, in Zhu Wen's opinion, are all ****!
Thinking of this, Zhu Wen suddenly raised his voice and said: "We are very lucky now that the Holy King is on the throne, controls the weapons with holy virtue, assists the people with virtue, promotes water conservancy, builds waterwheels, does light corvee and pays little tax, and fakes the people's cattle and horses, all over the world.
The common people in Li are all rejoicing, even King Yu can't compare!"
This flattery was so comfortable to shoot!
In the past, the combined flattery of the Simeng School and the Chongmin School could not equal this flattery.
Because this is true!
At least that's part of the truth!
Liu Che has long been advocating and publicizing his political achievements among the people through Xiuyiwei.
The purpose is to allow hundreds of scholars to praise him in Shiqu Pavilion today.
As a result, the people in front seemed to be blind!
This makes Liu Che really depressed!
Now, finally, someone is sensible!
good!
Young people deserve encouragement!
Liu Che smiled slightly to show his agreement.
But, for Zhu Wen, this is not flattery, but his true feelings!
For people of the Xunzi school of thought, machines and mechanics are not scary at all, on the contrary, they are very cute.
Because, a gentleman controls a weapon!
For them, inventions, creations and mechanical skills are all meant to serve the world.
Only small people who live in peace and quiet will be afraid of machines and the development of machinery.
A true gentleman will use his own wisdom and means to use machinery and machines to benefit the world and the people.

Ah, I didn’t sleep all night last night. I felt so cold~ (To be continued.)
