In fact, Ma Bi brought her son to visit Ye Qingyun. On the one hand, she wanted to show her son's face.
On the one hand, I also really want to ask Ye Qingyun about Confucianism.
Because the five masters of the academy had gathered here before, Ye Qingyun had a talk in the school, letting them see what the true Confucian etiquette was.
Especially Kong Guanxing, the master of Tianque Academy.
Although the etiquette that Tianque Academy has always inherited was criticized by Ye Qingyun.
But it can be regarded as finding the real path for Tianque Academy to take.
It is said that after Nakong returned from stargazing, he went into seclusion for three days, and then a loud laugh came from the place of seclusion.
The stone statues of the ancestors of Tianque Academy sparkle with brilliance.
This proves that Kong Guanxing has walked on the path that truly belongs to him.
Even though Kong Guanxing only practiced Confucianism and not martial arts, he only had to walk firmly on his own path.
He will definitely leave the other Lords of the Five Houses behind.
In other words.
Ye Qingyun pointed out to Kong Guanxing and even the disciples of Tianque Academy the correct direction leading to the great road of heaven and earth.
This is an unparalleled opportunity.
Ma Bi felt itchy in her heart.
He envied Kong Guanxing.
So he couldn't hold it any longer.
I came here shamelessly with my son.
The heads of the other courtyards all plan to visit Ye Qingyun again in a while.
Ma Bi, this guy, really doesn't have the patience to wait any longer.
"Master Ye, I listened to Master Ye's teachings in the school before, and I suddenly became enlightened and gained a lot."
Ma Bi said with a flattering look.
"I came here today to ask Mr. Ye for advice. What path should Wenzhao Academy take in the future?"
Ye Qingyun touched his chin.
I thought to myself, when I was in school, wasn’t it just a mess?
Do you really believe it?
It seems that my deception skills, Mr. Ye, have never declined.
very good!
This puts me at ease.
The ability to fool is the key to being able to thrive wherever you go.
Now I have to use my deception skills again.
But we still can't talk nonsense, at least we have to look at what Wenzhao Academy is studying.
"Master Ma, what do you study in your academy?"
Ye Qingyun asked pretending to be profound.
When Ye Qingyun asked about this, Ma Bi also looked solemn.
"My lord, Wenzhao Academy has always implemented Confucian moral governance."
Confucian virtue rule?
Ye Qingyun was startled, but he knew this stuff.
Although Confucianism is broad and profound, there are actually only three thoughts that can be traced back to its roots.
One is the Confucian etiquette maintained by Kong Guanxing and others.
The other two types are rule by virtue and rule by man.
Among them, rule by virtue can be said to be the most widely circulated idea.
In Ye Qingyun's original world, the theory of rule by virtue has never declined since ancient times.
It is conceivable that this kind of thinking is indeed of great benefit to people.
"Tell me, what is the rule of virtue?"
Ye Qingyun continued to remain calm.
Yue Xia stood by the side holding the Decepticon, looking expectantly.
Although as a tree demon, she doesn't know much about Confucianism.
But every time I watch Ye Qingyun teach others, I feel that there is an indescribable charm in Ye Qingyun.
So handsome!
What a feeling!
Yue Xia couldn't help but have a demonic heart!
As for the Decepticon, it was held in Yue Xia's arms with an expressionless face.
Even if its head is squeezed between two warm things, it is still very calm.
It seems like nothing can cause it to have any mood swings.
I am a cat with no emotions!
“In the philosophy that Wenzhao Academy has always inherited, the rule of virtue is to influence and educate the world with morality.”
When Ma Bi talked about the inheritance of her academy, she naturally spoke clearly and logically.
After all, it is an idea left by generations, which can be said to be deeply ingrained.
Just open your mouth and come.
"Regardless of whether human nature is good or evil, morality can be used to influence and educate people, so that they can make people's hearts become good, understand shame, and avoid evil intentions."
After Ma Bi finished speaking, she smiled sheepishly.
"Make Mr. Ye laugh."
Ye Qingyun shook his head.
"You are right, that is the rule of virtue."
He actually couldn't find anything wrong with it.
The Confucian rule of virtue sounds somewhat similar to the Buddhist approach of persuading people to do good.
But in fact they are two different things.
Although Confucian moral governance also encourages people to do good, it still focuses on morality.
In other words, only when a person has morality can he do good deeds.
Buddhism, on the other hand, regards doing good deeds as a kind of practice, not because of one's own morality.
"I think the moral governance of Wenzhao Academy is very good. There are no problems at all."
Ye Qingyun said this.
He is not the kind of person who deliberately wants to find fault.
In his opinion, this Confucian rule of virtue is indeed very good.
At least the etiquette of Que Academy on that day was more beneficial to the world than Kong Guanxing.
But Ma Bi was unwilling.
"Master Ye, is there really nothing that can be perfected?"
Ye Qingyun smiled bitterly.
This is more than just trying to find fault with yourself.
It's really weird.
Looking at Ma Bi's expectant eyes, Ye Qingyun thought that if he didn't find any fault with him, he was afraid that this guy would still refuse to leave.
"Actually, moral governance is not without flaws."
Ye Qingyun said this.
Hearing that Ye Qingyun was about to start giving instructions, Ma Bi and Ma Dan both looked excited.
He quickly took out a paper and pen and looked like he was taking notes seriously.
The corners of Ye Qingyun's mouth twitched slightly.
Really serious enough.
“The foundation of moral governance is to educate the world about what morality is and to have a sense of morality in their hearts.”
"But one thing is, you can't judge others by your own morality."
Ma Bi and Ma Dan were both startled.
Ye Qingyun's statement made them very surprised.
Didn't expect that at all.
"Morality is used to restrain oneself, not to restrain others."
"If you use your own morality to measure others, or even force others to act in accordance with your own morality, you will lose the meaning of morality itself."
Ma Bi nodded repeatedly, with a hint of understanding in her eyes.
After all, Ma Dan was young and did not immediately understand the meaning of Ye Qingyun's words.
"Master Ye, many of the books in our Wenzhao Academy have said that there is a moral standard, and everyone should stay within this standard and cannot go beyond it."
Ma Dan expressed his doubts.
Ye Qingyun shook his head.
"Morality has never been defined by a standard. The only thing that is defined is law!"
Speaking of this, Ye Qingyun's voice became sonorous and powerful.
Ma Bi quickly winked at her son and signaled him not to say any more, so as not to anger Mr. Ye.
Ma Dan could only lower his head in frustration.
"How do you think Mr. Ye should define the virtues of a gentleman?"
Ma Bi asked cautiously.
Ye Qingyun glanced at him.
"In my opinion, a gentleman's virtue only requires two things."
"Two things?"
"Don't do good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil deeds because they are small!"
Ma Bi was stunned immediately.
A simple sentence, but it embodies the virtue of a gentleman to the fullest.
yes!
There is no need to do anything earth-shattering, and there is no need to care about the title of gentleman all the time.
Don't do good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil deeds because they are small.
As long as you can do these two things, you are a worthy gentleman!
Ma Bi's breathing became rapid.
There was a clear understanding in his heart.
"Master Ye, I've realized it!!!"
Rumble!!!
At the same time Ma Bi spoke excitedly.
The entire Wenzhang Academy suddenly shook.
Immediately afterwards.
A huge sea beast jumped up from the sea, and its huge body fell towards Yuzhang Academy.
"what's the situation?"
Ye Qingyun was also startled and looked up.
Just in time, he saw a dark shadow pressing down on him.
