Great Wei scholar

"Brother Xu, don't worry, this gentleman will definitely not take the initiative to trouble you. My father paid a special visit, but he wanted to ask Brother Xu about the article."

Li Xin replied.

"article?"

"What did the imperial edict say? Is there a sample?"

When Xu Qingxiao mentioned the article, he remembered that he was clearly An Guoce, so why did he suddenly become a chapter of intentions?

"Yes, Brother Xu, wait a moment."

Li Xin got up immediately, and then took out a piece of rice paper from the room.

Placed on a stone table.

This is the rubbings of the imperial decree. Generally speaking, when the imperial decree comes down, all counties and prefectures need rubbings, paste it on the city wall, and announce it to the world.

The content is simple.

After reading it, Xu Qingxiao frowned.

Chapter 77: Fighting

The emperor's will is very simple.

Roughly speaking, the articles I write are intentional articles.

Let everyone learn a little bit from themselves, but it is a matter of intention. The Great Wei Dynasty does not need to have an intention at present, so let's suppress it first, but don't deny your talent.

Isn't this talking nonsense with your eyes open?

Did the emperor read his own article?

Why did the article, which was clearly about construction and development and advocated industrial development, become a conceptual article?

"It's impossible for the emperor not to read my article. If he doesn't read the peerless article, the emperor has done it."

"Since you've read my article, you should know my purpose, but can you change it to a purposeful article to... protect me?"

Soon, Xu Qingxiao thought of the reason.

Besides, Xu Qingxiao couldn't think of a second reason, unless the emperor was really blind.

But that's not possible.

"Has the court battle reached this level? Even the emperor should be careful?"

Xu Qingxiao pondered carefully.

Obviously the emperor is not a fool, so the purpose of announcing this decree is to protect himself.

This is the first time Xu Qingxiao has intuitively felt the fierce fighting in the imperial court. Otherwise, the emperor would have bragged about it for a normal dynasty with his own security policy, and then started to do special things.

Not doing so is not not recognizing yourself, but recognizing yourself, but because of the situation, I want to protect myself first, and then do it when the time is right.

In an instant, Xu Qingxiao understood the cause and effect.

He is a smart man, and Emperor Wei was also a smart man, he even did not hesitate to use conceptual articles to attract hatred and use external conflicts to resolve internal conflicts.

Obviously, according to the empress's idea, her future route has been planned.

Enter Beijing, become an official, and then start to discuss how to run the bank, and then secretly go to set up the bank, and when you are ready, start working directly.

The emperor has a veto power.

But why not make a fuss now, because you are afraid that people will start to trip you up during the preparatory stage.

It is not impossible for you to have a veto right now, but what will you do next?

It's impossible for you to be a rascal all the time, right?

In fact, it is just one point, the imperial power is not stable enough.

If this is stable enough, look at Zhu Taizu, kill if you disagree, and kill if you disagree. Not only do you have to agree, you have to be extremely happy, otherwise you will also be killed.

"Seven Northern Expeditions, a woman proclaims the emperor, this is the consequence."

Xu Qingxiao roughly understood some things. He understood the current emperor.

Conceptual article.

It's like putting yourself on the fire.

Since ancient times, the most heated debate among literati has been conception.

conception.

A gentleman makes up his mind.

Everyone believes in the words of a certain sage, takes it as their ultimate ideal, and strives hard for decades, but you suddenly come up with a new idea. If you continue the sage’s idea, that’s fine.

But if you overthrow this idea, what will people think?

It's like in the previous life, you told a man that there is no such thing as light in this world.

Faith collapsed.

Therefore, the dispute of conception involves too much in the literati circle.

No, not too big, but devastating arguments.

So if you want to resolve this kind of trouble, you must respect Zhu Sheng's will.

Five generations of saints.

The first generation of saints established the meaning of common people in the darkest age.

The second generation of sages means Confucianism and Taoism, a teacher for all ages.

The third generation of sages, the meaning of establishing ritual and music, is a gentleman's ritual and music.

The fourth sage, the meaning of establishing the emperor and his ministers, the father and the queen.

The fifth sage, establishes the will of a gentleman, preserves the principles of heaven, eliminates human desires, and overcomes selfish desires.

Actually none of these five saints was wrong.

Otherwise it is impossible to be holy.

Their ideas have a good starting point, but they can't stand being added to by later generations.

They all think that they have figured out the meaning of a saint, and then impose their own ideas into it to become the meaning of a saint.

Once or twice, the saint is blamed.

It's like keeping the principles of heaven and destroying human desires. Although the words are a little bit extinct, what is the meaning and starting point?

Desires are infinite. We, gentlemen and Confucian scholars, should restrain our desires. This is the real gentleman, and we should not act randomly and allow our desires to expand endlessly.

What did it become?

You cannot have desires, desires are not good.

It can even be used to attack each other. You ate an extra egg today, you don’t respect saints, and you are not worthy of being a literati.

There is no such thing.

Don't be unconvinced, because you can over-understand the saint's words, after all, you can't resurrect the saint.

You can't explain clearly, people insist on messing with you.

So Xu Qingxiao doesn't like Zhu Sheng's meaning very much, he respects Zhu Sheng, a saint of the human race, naturally has an unparalleled aura, and may have shortcomings, but how many people can become saints in the past and present?

What Xu Qingxiao prefers is another idea.

Wang Yangming and Wang Shouren's unity of knowledge and action.

This is the idea Xu Qingxiao approves of, and the two are essentially the same.

Overcome selfish desires.

But it is much better than Zhu Sheng's meaning. No matter whether Zhu Sheng's meaning is added to by later generations, it still can't change this strict meaning, which is a bit contrary to human reason.

And Wang Shouren's unity of knowledge and action is very free, there is no need to pretend to be himself and release his own nature.

It's just that Xu Qingxiao didn't dare to say these things.

There is no other reason.

Given my current situation, if I really dare to publicize this idea, then Confucian scholars all over the world will make trouble for me.

Ninety percent of literati regard themselves as enemies.

It's better to wait until you grow up slowly, hold the power in the court, have prestige and morality, and then publicize this idea.

This way the effect may still be the same, but at least no one will come to trouble him.

Xu Qingxiao looked at the will and thought.

At this time, the delicacies came.

Plates of steaming dishes were placed on the stone table. Xu Qingxiao came back to his senses, but without saying anything, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

It's not interesting to eat vegetables alone, so let the servants bring a bucket of rice, and prepare a few catties of meat.

Just like that, Xu Qingxiao thought about the next thing while eating.

First of all, it is a matter of intention, without mentioning a word.

It doesn't matter what the purpose of Tianming Academy is, it's okay to make friends, but if you want to set yourself up, that's not okay.

Don't mention the idea, let them say nothing.

Even if you don't talk about it when you enter Beijing in the future, talk is talk, scolding is scolding, as long as you don't come out to take the rhythm, basically you won't cause any big trouble.

After deciding on this idea.

Xu Qingxiao's food tasted even more delicious.

It just scared Li Xin on the side.

Xu Qingxiao ate more than half a bucket of rice, plus three or four catties of meat, and four or five plates of dishes. This amount of food has caught up to him for seven or eight days.

"Brother Xu, I really didn't expect that you could eat so much."

Li Xin clicked his tongue.

"People who practice martial arts are like this."

"By the way, brother, if you don't mind these few days, I plan to stay here for a few days, and if it bothers you, it's fine."

Xu Qingxiao smiled and proposed to stay here for a few days.

After all, with the arrival of the people from Tianming Academy, everyone's eyes in Nanyu Mansion are on him. Instead of going out to make trouble, it's better to rest at Li Xin's house for a few days.

"Brother Xu's words are too serious. It's my honor for you to come to live in the humble house. Now I'll make people prepare for the room."

Li Xin was excited, Xu Qingxiao lived at his house, he was naturally 1 happy, and he could brag about it when he saw other friends in the future, I have a very good relationship with Xu Dacai, and we always live at my house in Nanyu Mansion.

How cool is this?

Soon, after Xu Qingxiao finished his meal, Li Xin asked someone to prepare an upper room for Xu Qingxiao, and arranged for four maids to follow Xu Qingxiao to take care of the daily life.

Xu Qingxiao was also casual, and asked the maids to prepare bath water, planning to wash it first.

These days are full of dust and dust, although warriors have advanced to the top level, they still need to pay attention to personal hygiene.

After half an hour.

Xu Qingxiao took a hot bath comfortably, and Li Xin was also thoughtful, so she specially asked someone to buy a suit for herself. The fabric was made of high-quality silk. A suit like this would cost at least five taels of silver.

It really is the benefit of fame.

You can eat and drink for free and you can prostitute a set of clothes for free. The ancients were kind-hearted.

After changing the robes.

Xu Qingxiao has nothing important to do next, just plan to calm down and read some books.

But at this moment, Li Xin came over in a hurry, looking dumbfounded.

"Brother Xu, something serious happened."

When Li Xin spoke, Xu Qingxiao couldn't understand.
