Great Wei scholar

Seven great Confucian scholars sat quietly in the main hall of the Palace of Literature.

Sixteen Confucian scholars sat at the back.

They are all the core people of the Great Wei Palace, and they are true confidantes.

And the first seat in the hall is an old man, he is very old, but there is no cloudiness in his eyes.

This is a Confucian of the fourth grade in the Great Wei Dynasty, a great Confucian of heaven and earth, and as early as 60 years ago, he was already in the realm of a great Confucian of heaven and earth, and he has been stuck in this realm.

If he takes a step forward, he is a semi-saint.

Inheriting the meaning of Zhu Sheng, it is a pity that this half step will last for 90 years.

The lifespan of Confucianism is average, and even the lifespan of any system is average in front. Even warriors, before the seventh rank, at most they can keep fit and be free from all diseases.

It is very difficult to prolong life. Generally speaking, the lifespan of a great Confucian is about 120 years. If you practice nourishing Qi and take some elixir to extend your life, that is the limit of 150 years old.

The great Confucianist in front of him is now 130 years old, and if he does not break the holy realm within ten years, this life will come to an end.

Inside the hall.

Everyone is sitting upright like students.

"The Great Confucianism of the Ming Dynasty, just now came the news that when Xu Qingxiao made up his mind, there were all kinds of visions, receiving the robes of heaven and earth, the jade crown of heaven and earth, and being recognized by heaven and earth."

"I'm afraid this is not good news for us."

Someone rang a voice and told what happened just now.

Xu Qingxiao made it clear that he succeeded, and the Great Wei Wengong knew about it immediately, but they didn't know about the follow-up, because news came.

Naturally, he had to enter the Palace of Literature and listen to the opinions of this great scholar of heaven and earth.

Xu Qingxiao and Zhu Sheng's lineage have formed a bond, and the icon destroyed itself.

This enmity is as deep as the sea, and I originally thought to wait for Xu Qingxiao to enter Beijing before going to trouble Xu Qingxiao.

But they never expected that Xu Qingxiao would be recognized by heaven and earth, which would be considered a mess for them.

After all, if this is the case, Xu Qingxiao obeys God's will, how can they deal with it?

"That's right, the Confucianism of the Zhengming Dynasty. In today's literary world, some people even question it. They think that 500 years later, the Great Wei will produce another saint. It is said that Xu Qingxiao has only been enrolled for more than a month."

"Such a gifted person, now outside, it is said that he is the reincarnation of a saint."

"For more than a month after entering school, the speed is indeed too fast for seventh-grade understanding. If Confucianism and Taoism do not have different skills, otherwise I would suspect that he has practiced different skills."

All Confucian scholars discussed and expressed their concerns.

However, on the first seat of the palace, the Confucian Zhengming shook his head and said.

"No, no, no."

The voice sounded, and everyone was quiet, listening to him speak slowly.

"I have discussed this matter with several seniors, and I have come to corresponding conclusions, and now I will answer them one by one."

"As I said before, it's good for Xu Qingxiao to express his intentions and speak out clearly, but he misunderstood his intentions and determined to speak wrongly. This is the problem."

"Do you think that the blessing of heaven and earth represents heaven and earth? Then I am also a great scholar of heaven and earth, so does it also represent heaven and earth?"

"People are not sages, and no one has faults. I am not a sage, and I have made mistakes. Xu Qingxiao is not a sage, so he will naturally do erroneous things."

"He is a great talent, this is undeniable, and I also appreciate his talent, but if he has a different intention, even if he makes a statement, he is destined to be in the same vein as Zhu Sheng, and run counter to it."

"And we are not trying to put him to death, but to educate him, to let him know that what he clearly means is wrong, and what he says is wrong."

Zhengming Confucianism made a sound, and his tone was calm, explaining what Zhu Sheng's lineage is going to do and how to do it.

As soon as these words were said, all the Confucian scholars woke up.

Indeed, the moment Xu Qingxiao made it clear, everyone was shocked at first, and then a little dissatisfied.

Later, a real big man spoke up and identified Xu Qingxiao as the enemy of Zhu Sheng's lineage.

But this great man, Shenlong, can't see the head and tail, he is high above, like sitting on a cloud, it is normal to look down on Xu Qingxiao.

But the problem is that everyone is still a little puzzled and confused, especially later, after Xu Qingxiao made a statement, there are all kinds of vision blessings, and it is recognized by heaven and earth.

Now everyone is silent, and being recognized by heaven and earth means that I can't reprimand Xu Qingxiao for disobeying the will of heaven and disobeying the saints.

After all, heaven is greater than saints. In other words, everything Xu Qingxiao did was reasonable.

And what Zhengming Confucianism just said, completely gave everyone a new way of thinking.

That's right, you, Xu Qingxiao, are recognized by the world, we have to admit that you are indeed a great talent, that you are a scholar, and that you have your status.

But this does not mean that I admit that your intention is correct, and that your statement is correct.

Just like Buddhism and Taoism, how many years have they been arguing?Can you say that Buddhism is right?You can't say that Buddhism is wrong.

It can only be said that your idea is right, but your direction is wrong, or that there is something wrong with you, which is not suitable for scholars in the world. This is a good place to argue.

Since they can fight, then everything is fine. What is their Confucianism and Taoism best at?Isn't that just arguing?If it weren't for the weirdness of Buddhism, in the past few years, they could have participated in the dispute between Taoism and Buddhism.

"I'll wait for clarification."

Everyone nodded, they understood.

All the people present are above the seventh rank, and they have already understood the meaning of Zhu Sheng, so they worship Zhu Sheng fanatically, not just them.

How many scholars in the world respect Zhu Sheng?How many scholars regard Zhu Sheng as the only true god in their hearts?And Confucianism and Taoism are like this, as long as the meaning is made clear.

Then even if you are completely enlightened and swear to follow Zhu Sheng to the death, you cannot be shaken. If you are shaken, it proves that you have not understood Zhu Sheng's meaning at all, and you have to practice again.

Hearing everyone's answer, Zhengming Daru's face was very calm, and then he continued.

"As for the theory of visions, it's the theory of geniuses."

"I am a great Confucianist in the world. I could read at the age of three, compose poetry at the age of five, enter the tenth rank of Confucianism and Taoism at the age of ten, enter the ninth rank within half a year, enter the eighth rank within one year, and understand the meaning in the same year."

"Sixty years ago, I witnessed the great Confucianism in the world, and there were also visions. The hype was falling, and the sages were chanting scriptures. Is this vision weaker than Xu Qingxiao?"

He opened his mouth slowly and asked everyone.

"Xu Qingxiao is indeed a great talent, but I don't think he can become a saint. In 500 years, there will be no saints in this world. Maybe you will understand when you reach my realm."

He was very determined, and his tone was extremely firm.

As soon as these words were said, everyone came back to their senses, yes, the upright Confucian in front of him was also a talent that shocked the past and the present decades ago.

He is also known as a genius through the ages, let alone this great Confucian of the world, which of the seven great Confucians sitting in front is not a genius among geniuses?

How beautiful were they when they were young?A piece of paper determines the mountains and rivers, but the article weighs a thousand catties.

No one can become a great Confucianist. Everyone can write books, and even a few are admired by scholars all over the world.

Just like Yan Lei, a great Confucianist, he wrote a policy of strict governance of the country, which is also a peerless article, but that was more than 30 years ago.

It's just that people like to forget the past.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhengming Daru continued to speak.

"The so-called vision is originally aptitude. The better the aptitude, the stronger the vision. Xu Qingxiao has a great talent. As I said just now, this cannot be denied, but those who can achieve great Confucianism have unusual things. He Xu Qingxiao is A great talent, perhaps better than us."

"But he can't beat a saint. Remember, we are not because of ourselves, but because of saints. It's not because we don't want to accept great talents. On the contrary, we are more willing to accept such great talents as Xu Qingxiao."

"It's just that Xu Qingxiao went astray. Since we are Zhu Sheng's disciples, we also respect Zhu Sheng's words, give Xu Qingxiao a chance, persuade him to turn around, and persuade him to give up his bad intentions. He doesn't respect Zhu Sheng's meaning, but he doesn't understand Zhu Sheng's meaning."

"This is what I mean, and it's also what the higher-ups mean. If Xu Qingxiao is willing to abandon his current intentions and become Zhu Sheng's disciple, and everything in the past will be wiped out, we will also erect a statue for him for ten years, which can be regarded as making up for his abandonment."

Zheng Ming Confucianism said so.

In his opinion, Xu Qingxiao is not rebellious. After all, heaven and earth recognize it. If he is disrespectful to a saint, it can't be justified, so he turned the finger on Xu Qingxiao for not understanding Zhu Sheng's meaning.

And everyone should give Xu Qingxiao a chance, as long as Xu Qingxiao is willing, he can come to the Great Wei Wen Palace to study Zhu Sheng's meaning, so as to abandon his own ideas and stand up, although doing so will be very harmful to Confucianism and Taoism.

But I am also willing to erect a statue for you, and be admired and worshiped by scholars all over the world. If this happens, it can be regarded as a great compensation.

After all, if you want to erect a statue, you must be a great Confucian in the world, or a great Confucian who has passed away. After hundreds of years, his knowledge of making works will be admired by the world, and he will be promoted to a great Confucian in the world before you can erect a statue.

So when they heard that Xu Qingxiao was going to erect a statue, everyone's expression changed, especially the seven Great Confucians, who were not qualified to erect a statue as Great Confucians, but let Xu Qingxiao erect a statue?This made them more or less unhappy.

But thinking that Xu Qingxiao's words would harm Zhu Sheng's lineage, and persuading him to be kind, he would be satisfied as compensation.

After all, he has already made up his mind, and if he abandons his mind, it will be more terrifying than a martial artist abandoning his cultivation base.

After all, self-abandoned cultivation can be rebuilt, this is a matter of skills and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Abandoning the intention means that you give up your own gentleman's intention, and then learn other things, but what if you don't know?Then you may not be able to understand it in this life, and you will be stuck in the seventh rank.

"My generation of Confucianism and Taoism needs to know that one rank is one heaven, and Confucianism and Taoism start from the seventh rank, and one rank is better than one heaven."

"Seven grades of enlightenment, six grades of heart-based Confucianism, five grades of Confucianism, as for the latter, it is even more difficult. I have been a great Confucianist in 20 years since I entered school, and then I have become a great Confucianist in the next 20 years. The realm of great Confucianism."

"But in this realm, I stopped for 90 years. Over the years, I have read poems and books and read books all over the world. Among the books like mountains and seas, every person who can be recorded, which one is not a shocking talent? "

"Which one is not a great talent in the world? But in the end? How many saints are there in this world? It's just a palm count. The common people are ignorant, they can only see the present, but they can't see the future. Back then, when I became a great Confucian."

"All the people in the world say that I want to become a saint, but what will be the result? So don't make Xu Qingxiao a myth, and don't underestimate Xu Qingxiao. His great talent cannot be denied. It would be great if he can promote his meaning for Zhu Sheng."

"But if you can't carry forward Zhu Sheng's intentions, if you don't insist on going your own way, and don't listen to repeated dissuasion, then we can only let him perish."

When the great Confucianism of the Ming Dynasty said this, he didn't continue to talk about it.

His meaning is already very clear.

From ancient to modern times, how many earth-shattering people?Look through books, look at ancient books, and take out historical records to read, and you will find that who can leave a name is not a great talent in the world?

Whether it is a hero, an emperor, a great Confucian, or a king of martial arts, but in the end?

How many people can become saints by studying?Just five.

There are countless heroes, how many emperors are there when the world stands together?

After all, people in the world are ignorant. They only see the shock in front of them, but they cannot see the future. If they can be sanctified if they have a vision, then they have already been sanctified.

Therefore, he asked Zhu Sheng's disciples not to think that Xu Qingxiao was too far away from the saint just because Xu Qingxiao had some visions and was recognized by heaven and earth.

Not to mention the sage, now it's just a clear mind, the next level is to establish a mind, and the clear mind is earth-shattering, it's impossible for you to also shake the world with a clear mind, right?

After Lixin, there is still writing, writing books, and letting scholars all over the world read them. This is the real difficulty.

Otherwise, a book written casually will not be recognized by heaven and earth, and you will still not be able to become a great Confucian.

"I will respect and obey the words of the Great Confucianism."

At this moment, all the Confucians smiled, and their heart knots were opened, and what they heard today, they would immediately tell others, until it spread to the ears of Zhu Sheng's disciples, to untie their heart knots.

Xu Qingxiao is a great talent, but it's a pity that he went astray. If they can make things right and turn to the light, Zhu Sheng's lineage is willing to accept them and give Xu Qingxiao a chance to reform. But if Xu Qingxiao is stubborn, then don't blame them.

Based on this idea, there are enough reasons to have a good debate with Xu Qingxiao.

More importantly, if these remarks are spread, it will appear that Zhu Sheng is selfless.

You Xu Qingxiao insulted the saint, you Xu Qingxiao scolded Zhu Sheng's disciples, you Xu Qingxiao even stood up and competed with me, Zhu Sheng, but I couldn't wait, and instead invited you to come and have a look, and invite you to learn.

Because we know that you are a great talent, but you just went astray, we give you the opportunity to study hard, so as to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, wouldn't it appear that Zhu Sheng is selfless and lofty?

This must be publicized.

Of course, as for not being angry?It is impossible not to be angry. Most of the disciples are very angry. After all, it involves their beliefs, but their vision is too low to see what they see above, so they naturally feel angry and incomprehensible.

But no matter what, originally Xu Qingxiao made it clear that it was a blow to the Great Wei Wengong, but with these words, all the problems were easily resolved, and on the contrary, Zhu Sheng's disciples all over the world believed in and respected Zhu Sheng even more.

Everyone left with smiles on their faces, and after these people left, Zhengming Daru's voice sounded again.

"Jing'an, tomorrow I will go to the palace in person to find His Majesty, this matter is over."

He spoke slowly, saying this.

The latter bowed immediately.

"Thank you teacher."

Everyone could understand what this meant. In the court the day before yesterday, the Empress said that if Xu Qingxiao made it clear, she would agree with Sun Jing'an to retire and return home.

But if they really tell their old age and return to their hometowns, it would be a big blow to their Confucianism and Taoism. After all, this is a great Confucian with great prestige and power in the court.

If he left, many things would change, which would be equivalent to wasting ten years of effort, so naturally the Great Wei Wengong would not agree.

"Okay, let's go back."

Zhengming Confucianism opened his mouth, and everyone retreated.

Half an hour later, a message was sent out from the Great Wei Wen Palace, announcing it to the world.

The general meaning is very simple. The matter between Xu Qingxiao and Yan Lei has been found out, and it was just a misunderstanding. Both parties are at fault when it comes to this level, but Yan Lei's fault is even greater. It was immoral, and he was punished to be imprisoned in the Wen Palace for three months, copying [-] copies of the holy words, and donating them to academies in various prefectures in Changping County.
