Chapter 175 Interest

This question was so strange that Sima Guang answered honestly: "Shame!" "So why do you need the law?"

Do not ask about the law of the Legalists or the Confucianism’s meaning, but only refers to the law.

"Fear." "So what did the emperor make a mistake? "

In this column, both young men suddenly realized that their qualifications were really smart. They stood up at the same time and bowed, "Xie Jieyuan corrected."

"No right is allowed to be corrected, but if you say something today, the law cannot be passed down to others."

"Now" the two young men smiled terrifiedly.

But Confucius might have had this meaning at that time, and it was not very clear. The fact is that he did not see the real ghosts and gods, and there was no evidence, so he was half-believing and half-doubted. There were many believers and few doubts, so some very contradictory words appeared.

In his speech, similar situations are also said that one would rather be poor than lose ambition, and one would say that wealth can be obtained, even if the whip holds a whip, I will do it according to my preferences. If wealth can be obtained, I will do it even if I do something to take the whip. If I can't get it, I will do it even if I can't get it. If I can't get it, then I'd better do what I like. This is too despicable to myself. But every sentence of his is placed on the altar. Even if it is not good, it will be repeatedly misinterpreted by later generations and turned into a sacred text!

It depends on how to explain it. Just make sense and you can create your own theory.

In fact, no matter how Zheng Lang explained Confucius' words, it doesn't matter, his meaning is directly pointing to the core of the ruler.

"I dare not talk about whether ghosts and gods exist or not. It is too far away. Even if there is one, it is not the ghosts and gods we imagine. But you must remember the words of Liu Xuande and Di Renjie, and put people first. This person is not only a scholar-official, but also a craftsman, a farmer, a merchant and a soldier, and everyone lives a happy life. This is the true people first."

"Here."

It should be a relatively satisfactory conversation. The two teenagers did not argue with him, otherwise it would be very heartwarming, which is Zheng Lang's current level. If you want to win them, you will also have to spend a lot of talk.

But Wang Yi and Sima Chi didn’t know how to feel if they knew that their son was in the Zheng family and taught him like this?

"You guys study hard, I also have to study hard and strive to take the provincial high school entrance exam as soon as possible, so that there will be more time to communicate together."

When I heard that the two teenagers were very happy, but when I heard the word communication, they both frowned. However, there was concern and said, "You should also rest early. Studying is not a one-day effort, and your body should also be careful. Also, if there is anything missing, the little maids around you are very young, and they may not understand, just speak."

"We are very satisfied." "That's good." Zheng Lang finished speaking, and left. Things were not as smooth as he thought. He accepted these two people as students, don't expect peace, 1 little Zheng Zi!

On this day, I sat at home for lunch, and the two teenagers would definitely not be able to come back. However, in the city, there was a shop in the Zheng family, so Liu'er took the time to deliver the meal every day. In fact, Sima Chi was not relieved, so he sent someone to come and took a look. He was very satisfied after hearing this. What else should I do?

People took out the carriage given by the old lady and became a special car for their baby son.

Moreover, the hard work of the Zheng family also played a leading role, and it seemed that the other partner was not easy to read. Not only that, the Zheng family's future was far beyond what he could compare to. Once he rose to the fore, his son would definitely benefit from it.

Whoever doesn’t make a small plan or fight is just a fool!

The aunt was praising the two little guys at home, and several Confucian scholars from the state school came to the Zheng family together.

Zheng Lang sang a fat noo and said hello enthusiastically, and then asked, "Why are you here?" "Sir, how dare you take it?" The gentlemen died of shame and anger, and then told the story. It was Zheng Lang who said it, if you don't understand, you have to ask. It's not like in the Sima family and the Wang family, both parents are from Jinshi. If you don't understand, you can give me advice immediately.

I don’t have much time, so I have to ask if I encounter difficulties.

The problem arises. Because Zheng Lang has never studied abroad, he has too high acquaintance with the overall literati of the Song Dynasty. Not only students, but some Confucian scholars, may not be as high as he imagined. After all, this is an era of very backward communication, including many students who have no conditions to read and write at will. Except for geniuses like Ouyang Xiu, most of the studies are obtained only by teaching by words and deeds.

So few excellent people are.

The two teenagers were arrogant and very arrogant. Sometimes they asked, and when they saw the teacher stammering, they explained by themselves, "Teacher, is it right for me to explain this?"

Yes, it's very well explained.

What else can I say? Then I hide aside and sweat. It turns out that they are the students of the Jieyuan Gong family, all of them are so awesome!

If this is the case, you will be dealt with.

The key is still the two people. Not only is the national policy one progresses and the other one conservative, but the two people have completely different understandings of Confucianism.

Wang Anshi once said that Kong's meaning of restraining his ministers and not losing his heart, Mencius inherited the saints who died after being deceased. Although the heresy was written, the essence still existed. He caught the disaster of ashes and lost the right source of the source, the text of the chapters and sentences was superior to the essence, and the spread of the passages was widespread. This is where the yin's words were prosperous, and the wonderful way was hidden.

The origin of Confucius and Mencius Confucian classics is similar to Zheng Lang's meaning, so Wang Anshi screamed and wanted to run to Zhengjiazhuang. But there is still a difference.

Even if Mencius had some "heretics", he still did not lose his Confucianism. Qin Shihuang burned books and buried Confucianism and wars, which seriously damaged Confucian classics, resulting in the popularization of chapters and comments since the Han and Wei dynasties.

Then he lost the right thing, and did not understand the content of the scriptures, and was obsessed with his heart. Yin words were popularized by conduct, and the way of the saints was hidden but not revealed. What should I do? The sacred comments cannot be played with, and the study of meaning and principles instead of the study of sacred comments.

He even vaguely put Mencius above Confucius and said that Confucius was the meaning of restraining his ministers and not losing his life. This sentence is very interesting. He is a subject with obstacles. Does the meaning of restraining his father mean that his knowledge is not perfect because of his identity as a restrained minister?

But what about Sima Guang? He deliberately wrote a book called "Suspicion of Mencius", suspecting that "Mencius" was not what Mencius himself said, and he raised doubts about Mencius's lifelong actions. Those who hold this view include Li Gui in front and Chao Shuozhi in the later part. However, a small half of Sima Guang raised this question specifically targeted Wang Anshi.

Then he said: Wang Anshi should not use his own sci-school to cover up his ancestors and let all academic officials explain... He also dismissed the "Spring and Autumn Annals" and entered the "Mencius", abandoned the six arts and respected hundreds of schools. In particular, Wang Anshi actually described the "Spring and Autumn Annals" as "cutting off information and court reports" and made him hate it to the extreme.

It is indeed a waste of the Spring and Autumn Annals.

But Sima Guang is also not much better.

Wang Anshizun is all fake, the first in heaven, the second underground, and he is third. Sima Guang is the first in heaven, the second underground, the third in predecessors, and he is fourth.

Sima Guang came and said something, and the old gentlemen heard it was good.

Then Wang Anshi came, and the two of them kept talking, and sometimes they were also communicating. Since Sima Guang asked, most of them were Wang Anshi who didn't understand. They couldn't ask Zheng Lang all the time. They were very smart and knew that if there was no special situation at this time, they would not be distracted by the real teacher. They also came to ask.

The teacher then added some of his own opinions to what Sima Guang said just now.

Sir, it's not right, you said the wrong one.

What am I wrong?

Wang Anshi expressed his point of view again. Although Hua Xiao was not as good as his average Confucian scholars, they were really not as good as him, and they stopped fooling him when they heard this.

Once, twice, and if it continues for a long time, more than a dozen scholars were killed by two little kids. In desperation, several leisure teachers discussed for a while, ran to Zheng's house, and said to Zheng Lang: "Zheng Jieyuan, your two students are too talented and cannot be taught by us."

The aunt was very surprised and asked with wide eyes: "These two children are very well-behaved and very sensible."

Several gentlemen were having trouble, because Zheng Lang repeatedly reminded that the two little guys were respecting their teachers on the surface. They seemed very polite.

One of the Confucian scholars was more eloquent and poured out bitter water one by one.

But it was difficult to speak too lowly and was vague. The aunt didn't understand and was still asking: "If you don't understand, you have to ask, so my son asked words, paintings, pianos, and knowledge."

Several gentlemen frowned again, "Auntie, why can't you twist it clearly? Who is your son asking?"

Characters are masters of characters, paintings are masters of painting, and knowledge are masters of knowledge. They are all the best in the Song Dynasty. Who are we? Can a teacher who makes a whole and makes a bite of food be compared with those who your son asks?

However, Zheng Lang understood that if one was fine, and if two people had chemical reactions, they would not only have headaches, but also had headaches everywhere. If they didn't believe that Sima Chi's mansion, Sima Chi would not be able to heal either.

He smiled bitterly with his nose, and had to persuade him, saying, "Several gentlemen, I really can't get a banquet for you. Let's do this."

As he said that, he whispered a few words to Jiang Xing'er. Jiang Xing'er brought a few chains of silver from the back of the house, about 200 taels. There are 14 gentlemen in the provincial school, and each person can get more than ten taels. It is not too much, but not a small amount. He also said: "Your Majesty just returned to power and will definitely hold a provincial examination next year. Once the late students pass the exam, time will not be so tight in the future, so there will be no need to bother several people. If you can't rush up this time, it may take a few years to save the exam again. Then there will be a lot of time, and there will be no need to bother several people. But these two sons are not something in the pool."

No one objected to this sentence, it was just that I was too smart and had a headache when I asked, and I was not able to continue teaching.

Zheng Lang said again: "Strictly speaking, you are also one of their gentlemen. In the future, they will be successful and your face will be glorious. I know that it is difficult to teach them. Everyone, this little bit of silver is a little bit of my wish for a young man."

“This is not acceptable.”

"Don't refuse. I was born before His Majesty. I also said that Zilu received a cow and the Master praised him.

I taught these two sons to endure even more hardships, and several gentlemen should accept it. This is also a matter of praise from the Master.”

These Confucian scholars were not Jinshi, but were just scholars. Most of their knowledge was like Chai Keming. They were forced to study in the state because of life. The situation at home was not very good, and Zheng Lang praised the Master as the righteousness of the Master, and he took it away half-rejected and half-rejected it.

Then I sent it away.

But Zheng Lang did not blame the two mistresses. He had to ask if he didn't understand. He didn't like Edison's teacher!

What kills them is that they are stubborn but will not kill their pursuit of knowledge, which will be unbeautiful.

But Zheng Lang’s two students were very difficult to teach and soon spread.

The little emperor has been living a very hard life in the past few months. No matter what the courts are, they are also quarreling, which makes him frightened and afraid of getting angry. So I miss Zheng Lang more and more. If he is by my side, I will talk and communicate and enlighten me, it would be great.

Therefore, when he was concerned about Zheng Langshi, he heard about the two students. He called Yan Wenying and asked curiously: "Has Zheng Jieyuan accepted two elementary school students?"

"Yes, I heard that the two sons were very smart. One of them was the child who was nine years old in Sima's Yin family who smashed a tank to save people. The other person was not very clear about it. Because Zheng Jieyuan was going to prepare for the provincial examination, he temporarily sent it to Zhengzhou Prefecture School, but several Confucian scholars in the Prefecture School could not teach them."

The little emperor was interested and said, "I really want to take a look."

"Your Majesty wants to see, if you have a chance. In September, the two empress dowagers led the burial of Yongding Mausoleum, and from the capital to Gongxian Avenue is not far from Zheng Jieyuan's house. Your Majesty can call them over to see you."

"This is a good idea," said the little emperor happily.

I have to take a look at what kind of students Zheng Lang accepted? It must be interesting...
