Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 411 Song Lian: I got it!

In fact, this question has never been thought of by anyone.After all, there are many schools of Confucianism, from the theory of good nature and evil nature in the pre-Qin period; to the left-style school and the Gongyang school in the Han Dynasty;The debate on Confucian views has never stopped in history.

After so many years of controversy, a thin book of Analects with notes from many schools of great Confucians has long deviated from the original intention of Confucius.It is common to take the meaning out of context and out of context.Just picking out one or two words at random, those "big Confucianists" can shake their heads and say that single word for several days and nights.It seems that Confucius has tens of thousands of scheming, and every time he utters a word, there are thousands of meanings hidden.

Even if Confucius was resurrected, seeing and hearing these disciples and grandchildren's remarks on the Analects of Confucius that went further and further away, I'm afraid it would inevitably be dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

Just like in the Chinese test papers of later generations, those authors who read and comprehend the original text saw what was analyzed in the answer of the teacher who gave the question: "What kind of meaning does a certain sentence of the author imply?"The standard answer is not necessarily what the author of the original text wanted to express, and it is often just a far-fetched interpretation of the teacher who wrote the question.

Over-interpretation, nothing more.

This truth is actually tacitly understood by scholars in the world.So why are these so-called Confucian schools still popular in the world?It is nothing more than using the old bottle of Confucianism to put their own new wine.

The new wine is fragrant and mellow, and looks glamorous, so some people admire it.

To put it more bluntly, if "New Wine" stands for a certain class and strives for the interests of a certain class, then it will naturally be supported and respected by people in this class.

For example, Confucianism, serving the imperial class, promotes "justice" and "legal order", and asks the world to "preserve the principles of nature and eliminate human desires."The rule of the emperor is the law of heaven, and the injustice in the heart is the desire of man.If Confucianism can be followed, the emperor will be born with great righteousness. No matter what the difficulties are, the emperor who does not respect the emperor is a thief.Women respect men, men respect kings, everyone should not think about anything, they are all honestly bullied, and honestly serve the powerful.The world has never changed from generation to generation, and the rule of natural emperors will last forever.

This set of theories was born to fool the people.It can be popular because in history, the emperors of Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties all needed this theory to put a layer of shackles on the people of the world.Standing for the scholar class and being promoted by the emperor, it is the most widely spread and most accepted by the scholar class.

After the great rise of Neo-Confucianism, it has been subtly influenced by generations, so the scholars have long equated the now popular Neo-Confucianism with orthodox Confucianism.

Those who doubt Neo-Confucianism are doubting Confucianism.Those who doubt Confucianism are naturally demons.In this way, these people who have been chained in their minds will not think about whether there is any fallacy in Neo Confucianism itself.

This is actually the case in the world. As long as you get used to the shackles, you often don't realize that you are actually trapped in them.

After all, people of my generation are actually mediocre, and not everyone can realize the Tao, get rid of the shackles of thought, and become a sage.

Song Lian is a man of insight, with a lot of knowledge in his chest.But when it comes to cultivation base and vision, he is still far from the realm of the great sage of Ming Dynasty.But Zhu Su's advice undoubtedly helped him break through a little of the confinement imposed by Neo Confucianism: Yes, those philosophies are evil ways, why is Neo Confucianism absolutely correct?

Since it is correct, why did Song Dayuan, who followed Confucianism, fall into such a situation?

Confucianism is naturally correct, but Confucianism is not equal to Confucianism!
He only felt that countless thoughts were beating his mind like the tide of Qiantang he had seen before.Except when he read the Analects for the first time when he was a child, he had never had this feeling of bursting thoughts.This made him tremble all over with excitement, and he concentrated on catching the flashing thoughts, for fear of missing the slightest bit of inspiration.

Sometimes things in the world are just a piece of window paper, and after this piece of window paper is pierced, it often becomes clear.Now he peels away Neo Confucianism, and even peels away many Confucian schools layer by layer, and then looks at the subtle words and righteousness of Confucius and Meng Sheng. Every time he peels off a layer, he will have many feelings that he has never had before.Song Lian didn't expect to have such an epiphany when he was getting old.

"I heard it in the morning, and I will die in the evening! Unexpectedly, the old minister is already at such an age, and he can go to the next level!" Song Lian said happily. "Your Highness Fifth is really not ordinary! And I will be worshiped by the old minister!" After finishing speaking, he tremblingly wanted to pay respects to Zhu Su.

"Master Song, absolutely not!" Zhu Su was startled, and quickly used all his strength to help Song Lian up.

Song Lian is a great Confucianist in the world, and he has also been his own teacher.If the news of him bowing down to himself spreads, it will add a layer of hatred. Not to mention, the most important thing is that Queen Ma, who requires the children to respect their teachers, knows it, and I am afraid that she will call Lao Zhu together to have a game for herself. Mixed doubles too.

He didn't know what Song Lian had realized. In fact, he just tried his best to talk and talk, and pulled Fang Xiaoru's target from "Confucianism" to the relatively small "Confucianism".

Confucianism is an absolutely untouchable tiger's butt, but Confucianism is just a ghost relying on imperial power.Lao Zhu has already learned from the lessons of later generations what the Ming Dynasty, which respects Neo-Confucianism, will look like in the future. This ghost will not have the soil to continue to be a minion in Daming.

Although it is very helpless to be driven away by Fang Xiaoru, but if he is just a vanguard of burial Neo-Confucianism, he is still willing to do it.

"Old minister has another question." Seeing that he insisted on helping himself up, Song Lian no longer persisted.After thinking for a while, he also asked Zhu Su a question, and his tone was no longer the same as before:
"Why, Your Highness, tell Yu Xizhi about those remarks?"

"Aren't the remarks in Xizhi's mouth the 'truth' that His Highness really believes? Excuse me, the old minister, there are many contradictions and rebellions in those remarks. If you follow them, it is not the right way."

Song Lian's tone was serious.After being instructed by Zhu Su to untie the shackles of Neo Confucianism, he fell in love with Zhu Su, the Fifth Highness, even more.If this highness really fell into heresy, Song Lian risked his life to persuade this highness to get back on track.

"Hehe, Master Song is worrying too much." Zhu Su said with a smile.Those philosophies told to Fang Xiaoru are actually outdated philosophies. What I really believe in are the great Mao Zedong Thought and the Communist Manifesto.But these naturally cannot be said directly to Song Lian, he has already thought of other rhetoric to deal with:

"Although Mr. Fang is talented and knowledgeable, he sticks to the rules. He often doesn't have his own thinking about what is said in the book."

"That's why I used this method to let him distinguish and think on his own. I want to tell him that not all the truths spoken by others are correct. Even some wrong truths are often disguised as unfathomable, Plausible."

"It's just that I didn't expect that instead of breaking the shackles in his heart, he became obsessed because of all these opinions."

"Even, I was so tired that I was criticized by scholars..."

Zhu Su intentionally showed a wry smile of embarrassment.
