Chapter 127
The atmosphere in the academy is very dignified, and the influence of Mohist children here is also huge, no less than that of Confucian students.

Yang Sheng and Yang Zhu were sitting and discussing the Tao. Before they could speak, a Confucian scholar said loudly: "Luo Guoxue Palace is the place where the philosophers spread the most truths. 'Love in general' and 'self-esteem' are like water and harmony. There is no room for reconciliation in the conflict like fire, so please ask the two sages to clear up the confusion for us first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Confucian scholars said loudly: "I also invite two sages to solve the confusion for the people of the world."

Everyone had an excited expression on their faces, clearly provoking trouble.

Since Mo Di came to the school, Confucianism has been beaten indiscriminately, especially after Mo Di left the customs, he created a special non-Confucianism, pointed at the nose of Confucianism, and beat the main Confucianists dizzy.

It's useless to mess around in Luo Guoxue Palace, it's really necessary to use theory and words to make the other party speechless.

But this is not the most fatal thing. What really makes Confucians dissatisfied with Mohism is that Mohism is no less respected in Luo Kingdom than Confucianism.

However, in two or three years, it surpassed the accumulation of Confucianism for hundreds of years, which has completely angered the leaders of Confucianism.

Luo State is the private land of Confucianism. This is the land of kings and paradise, the heaven on earth of Confucianism. When it is attacked here, it is no less important to Confucianism than the capital of a country.

Confucian scholars can allow themselves to lose to the Mohists among the Xia kingdoms, but only the Luo Kingdom can't!
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't beat the group of five big and three rough Mohists, Confucian scholars would even be ready to perform martial arts directly.

In these years, the only thing that can make the Mo family slightly deflated is the sentence "the Luo family is not king" in the past.

There is a fundamental conflict between Taoism and Mohism, so Confucianism has always picked troubles between Taoism and Mohism.

Now that Yang Zhu's birth made Confucian children feel that they were about to succeed, someone in Taoism really came up with a completely different theory from Mohism.

Although this set of theories runs counter to Confucianism, it is not important. Putting down Mohism first is what Confucianism wants to do most now.

Luo Huaichen, dressed in Mohist clothing, knelt beside Yang Sheng and said, "I will not speak out, this debate will be left to Yang Shengzi.

It is not easy for people to start a sect, Yang Shengzi must be careful. "

As a Mohist, he should have stood up, but Luo Huaichen himself had doubts about both Jianai and Feigong, so it was naturally impossible to participate in this fundamental debate.

This was the first time Yang Zhu appeared in the academy, so naturally he wanted to talk about his own theories first.

Speaking of this, it is necessary to say why so many people came to Luo Guoxue Palace to give lectures.

Because in the Luo State Academy, besides people from various schools, there are quite a lot of white bodies, which means that the Luo Kingdom has selected a group of people with better talents and clean backgrounds to sit in the academy. You can become famous, and you can even choose your own mantle from among them.

Yang Zhu's theory is very inspiring, especially rebirth. However, the fact that you should value yourself has not caused the storm as imagined, because this is in Zhaocheng, the center of Luo Kingdom, and it is here that universal love is the most popular. of.

Listening to Yang Zhu's narration, Yang Sheng began to think about Mohism's rhetoric in his heart, looking for shortcomings from Yang Zhu's theory.

When Yang Zhu stopped, Yang Sheng asked directly: "Yang Zi, you said that you value yourself and rebirth, and you call on everyone to cherish their own lives and protect their own interests.

Benefit the world without plucking a hair!

A few years ago, the Hu people invaded the country of Yan, and 20 people in the northern border of the country suffered. In the end, it was the joint efforts of all parts of the country to drive out the Hu people's invasion.

If everyone valued himself and was born again, how could the 20 people in the northern border survive between heaven and earth?
If the people of the northern border want to honor themselves and be reborn, the best way is probably to move south and leave their hometown, so that they don't have to face the barbarian's blade.

If the people in the northern border did not leave the land, and the people in the south of Jicheng in Yan State valued themselves, then the living people in the northern border would not be able to save their lives.

Could it be that they can only die in vain?

Or do you want to promote your self and rebirth to the barbarians?
Barbarians and di tyrants should not accept the way of saints. "

This sharp question made Mohist's eyes light up. Yang Zhu dismantled people into individuals, so he must face a problem, without organization, how to fight against organized barbarians!

If you want everyone to value life and everyone to value oneself, then you have to face the menacing forces in the world alone, because facing barbarians may result in death.

You Yan people are in danger, what does it have to do with our Qi and Luo people?

I want to honor myself, I want to be reborn, I don't covet your benefits, but you also deal with your dangers yourself!
Do you want to help someone you don't know?
Yang Sheng felt that he had realized the truth of universal love from Yang Zhu's theory, and he trembled a little excitedly and said: "In the past, when Duke Huan of Qi ruled the world, he used the soldiers of Qi State to help Yan State.

If you follow your own theory, it must be wrong.

However, during the Zhuxia War, Yan State resisted the Hu people in the north, so that Qi State could pour out the country without being invaded by the Hu people.

The Qi people helped the Yan people, and finally let the Qi people survive.

This shows that only by loving the world and helping each other can one save one person with the power of the world, and finally save oneself when one is in danger!
Universal love is self-esteem, universal love is rebirth! "

Sitting next to Yang Sheng, Luo Huaichen looked at him with some surprise. He really didn't expect Yang Sheng to deduce such a set of logic, directly digging out the roots of Yang Zhu's theory, which is too beautiful.

Listening to Yang Sheng's question, the Confucianists felt their scalps go numb. This kind of weird logic always felt something was wrong, but they couldn't tell.

Yang Zhu also frowned deeply. When the theories of various schools of thought were born to solve the internal affairs of the kingdoms of Xia, no matter whether it was Lao Tzu or Confucius, after they entered the storage room, their vision The scope will inevitably expand.

The same is true for Mozi, the biggest difference is that the classics began to include a lot of discussions about Xia and Yi, which is why Yang Sheng directly came to attack Yang Zhu.

Yang Zhu thought for a while and said: "Mozi loves at the expense of others. Mozi went to Wu State to block the attack on Chu. If he died directly in Wu State, then everything would be over. So universal love is not about rebirth. Seiko, you are wrong."

Yang Zhu wanted to refute the Mohists, and Yang Sheng had fallen into his own logic and started to think at the same time, but neither of them had seen the Confucian scholar next to him and he was already too excited.

There is no problem with Yang Sheng's theory, but the Mohism cannot combine love, but Confucianism's differentiated love can also achieve the effect of unifying the world!
Confucian scholars thought back to the ancient sage kings and the current overlords, who were all princes of the nine unions and ruled the world, and thought of the difference between Xia and Yi, and seemed to have found some kind of unified theoretical basis vaguely.

Yang Zhu thought of a weakness in Yang Sheng's words, "Yang Shengzi said that Qi State assisted Yan State, and finally Yan State assisted Qi State and survived.

But if Qi State annexed Yan State directly, the guards of Qi State would become Qi people. Facing the more powerful Qi State, maybe the Hu people would not dare to go south at all?
So isn't the non-aggression preached by the Mohists harming people? "

Yang Sheng's attack on Yang Zhu's self-worth and rebirth will harm others, Yang Zhu immediately counterattacked, love is self-harming, non-aggression is harming others.

Without giving in, grasping the opponent's core theory and criticizing it severely, this is academic debate.

Confucian scholars listened to Yang Zhu's theory, and the fog in their minds lessened, and the great way of kingship seemed to be in front of them.

Yang Zhu and Yang Sheng continued to debate, but the two sides continued to give examples around the fundamentals, but they couldn't break through the other side's camp.

Instead, Confucian scholars' eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally the two stopped the debate.

There is a clear distinction between black and white. Since the opponent cannot be refuted in theory, then the opponent should be defeated in reality.

Los Palace.

The process of the debate between the two sides will naturally be submitted to Luo Guogong's hands, Luo Qing looked at Yang Zhu's theory, and said with emotion: "There are more and more talented people in this world.

Daoism, Confucianism, and Mohism are all prominent learning in the world, and now Yang Zhu's knowledge has appeared, which is different because of Taoism.

Mohism comes from Confucianism, and it is the most opposed to Confucianism. Yang Zhuzhi refuted Mohism. If people in the world really "respect themselves" and "rebirth" to the extent he idealized, even the country and the monarch would disappear.

Yang Sheng is right about this point. If Zhuxia had no country, how could they resist Yidi?
Does Yang Zhu still want to preach to Yidi? "

Yang Zhu's theory can't even fix Luo Qing. The Luo family has never been so disapproving of a person's theory. Even the "Jianai" of the Mohist school, the Luo family believes that it can be reformed.

However, Yang Zhu's theory is too delicate, and there is no room for improvement. In the current world, it is bound to go to extremes.

In the chaotic place, Ji Zhao's figure floated up and down in it. There was no light, no sun, no moon, no flowers, plants and trees here. A faint consciousness was transmitted to Luo Chang's mind while he was sleeping.

"!"

Luo Chang's expression suddenly became serious, he frowned and thought for a while, and said to Luo Qing: "Qing'er, now I'm starting to select the clansmen, and I'm going to compile a big canon called "Zhuzi", which will combine all the works since Laozi and Confucius. The classics are all included to inform future generations."

----

Among the countless debates in Luo Guoxue Palace for hundreds of years, the contribution of "Mo Yang Debate" can still be ranked in the top ten.

Both sides of this debate, Yang Sheng and Yang Zhu, did not win a complete victory, so neither "Mozi" nor "Yangzi" was completely included.

However, in the Confucian classics, there are special books on this debate, of course with a critical narrative. Confucianism put forward the theory of one king on the basis of this, which is one of the foundations of its prosperity. ——"New Interpretation of Confucianism"

 This chapter is a bit of my own understanding, so I didn't let Mozi appear on the stage. It seems that there are double monthly tickets at the end of December, so you can keep it.
