Great Wei scholar

Came directly to a palace.

The hall is very tidy, without any extravagant things, but there are some bamboo basket fishing gear, which looks extremely weird.

"Xun Ru usually likes fishing when he has nothing to do. His life is very leisurely, and he doesn't like to make troubles."

"A very leisurely person learns from the inheritance of the second saint."

Chen Ru introduced to Xu Qingxiao as he walked.

"I see, Xun Ru is really elegant."

Xu Qingxiao said with emotion, a great Confucian in the world, who likes to go fishing for nothing, really admires this interest.

Compare Xun Ru, and then compare Peng Ru, one goes fishing for nothing, and the other thinks of ways to harm people all day long.

This is really comparing people to people, there is no comparison.

inside the palace.

A slight grunt sounded.

Inside the hall, a figure was sitting on the chief seat, with his head slightly lowered, his snoring was not loud, but it was clearly audible.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ru was a little embarrassed. He was a great Confucian, sitting in the palace and snoring, but he couldn't explain it.

He wanted to speak and wake up Xun Ru a little bit, but Xu Qingxiao stopped him and shook his head slightly, indicating that there was no problem.

The old man managed to get some sleep, so it doesn't matter if he waits.

Looking at Xu Qingxiao's eyes, Chen Zhengru thought for a while and didn't say anything.

In this way, the two waited quietly.

After about two hours, Xun Ru finally woke up.

Open your eyes.

Xun Ru raised his head, his face was kind and benevolent, and his eyes were a little confused. Although he was old, it was not the kind of lifeless old age, it was just the age.

"Chen Zhengru."

"Xu Shouren?"

Xun Ru quickly came to his senses, and he recognized Xu Qingxiao's identity at a glance.

"Student Xu Qingxiao, pay homage to Xun Ru."

Seeing Xun Ru wake up, Xu Qingxiao quickly stood up and spoke, looking very respectful and humble.

And Chen Zhengru also stood up and bowed to Xun Ru.

"Shouren, why didn't you say anything when you came here?"

"How long did the old man sleep? How long have you been waiting?"

Xun Ru was a little surprised. He has the habit of taking a nap. Anyway, he just sleeps when he has nothing to do. When he wakes up, he eats and drinks, and then goes fishing. It's not bad to spend the rest of his life slowly.

Unexpectedly, Xu Qingxiao came, willing to wait so as not to disturb his rest.

It's not to say how good the heart is, but this kind of humility is really rare.

After all, Xu Qingxiao is not just a great Confucian. Now that the most popular person in the Wei Dynasty is about to become a Marquis, it is rare for such a person to maintain such a humble heart.

"Not long."

"I hope Xun Ru will forgive me for disturbing Xun Ru."

Xu Qingxiao made a sound and said calmly.

"Xun Ru, Shou-ren is like this. He is humble. We have been waiting here for two hours, but Xun Ru, what time is this? Why are you still sleeping? Did you fish at night again yesterday?"

Chen Zhengru was so impolite that he spoke directly. It was obvious that Xun Ru was a kind person, otherwise Chen Zhengru would not be like this.

"Where is it?"

"No night fishing, no night fishing."

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter anymore. Cough, Shouren, why are you looking for this old man today?"

Hearing Ye Diao, Xun Ru quickly denied it. It was not embarrassing, but was discovered by the people of the Wen Palace, and it was necessary to persuade him carefully. What kind of negative impact will come.

Anyway, I was tired of hearing it, so I simply said nothing, and secretly went fishing in the distance.

Following Xun Ru's questioning, Chen Zhengru didn't worry about what Xun Ru had done, but looked at Xu Qingxiao and gave him a look.

"Xun Ru, the student came here today to ask two things, the great Confucianism in the world and the method of becoming a saint."

Xu Qingxiao was also straightforward, asking about these two things.

How to become a great Confucian and how to become a saint.

Following Xu Qingxiao's inquiry.

Xun Ru wasn't surprised at all, but after pondering for a while, he opened his mouth slowly.

"Heaven and Earth Great Confucianism, it's simple, at least it's quite simple for you."

"All you need is the public opinion of the world. In the war of foreign countries, relying on your strength alone, you can put an end to the calamity. Now the people of Great Wei respect you extremely."

"However, you still lack a little bit of public opinion, and an opportunity, an opportunity to be recognized by the world. The canonization ceremony will be held three days later. It is no surprise that this little bit of public opinion is not a problem."

"The real problem is this opportunity."

Xun Ru opened his mouth and proposed an opportunity.

Xu Qingxiao understood this, and now she understands a little more after hearing what Xun Ru said.

"What kind of opportunity is needed?"

At this time, Chen Zhengru opened his mouth and asked Xu Qingxiao directly.

"It's hard to say, it varies from person to person."

"Shouren, you understand the meaning of your heart and study, establish the words of the common people, and write a thousand-character essay. If you want to be named a great Confucianist in the world and recognized by the world, you must respond to the principles of heaven with your heart."

Xun Ru said slowly.

Respond to nature with the heart?

It was the first time Xu Qingxiao heard this sentence.

He was a little curious and didn't understand the meaning of these words, but somehow he understood something.

Seeing Xu Qingxiao's half-understood expression, Xun Ru continued.

"The meaning of the so-called conforming to the principles of nature is actually quite simple."

"Whether you expressed your intentions, made a statement, or wrote a book before, in fact, these are all with a purpose."

"People in the world study, and they study for fame, profit, and common people. They all have a purpose. If they want to be enshrined in the world and become a great Confucian in the world, they must follow the principles of heaven and earth with their heart."

Xun Ru explained, but Chen Zhengru beside him couldn't help asking curiously.

"Xun Ru, according to what you said, wouldn't it be necessary to have no desires or desires to become a great Confucian in the world? Can't have any purpose?"

Chen Zhengru became curious. People in the world read books for various purposes, according to Xun Ru.

It seems to be saying that if you want to become a great scholar in the world, you must not have any purpose.

If this is the case, wouldn't it be a person who has no desires or desires?Isn't this a saint?

It's just that even saints have their own thoughts.

"Do not."

Xun Ru shook his head, looked at the two of them and said.

"The so-called conforming to the principles of nature with the heart does not mean that there is no desire and no purpose."

"It's about knowing the laws of heaven, and all purposes and thoughts must obey the laws of heaven."

"It doesn't matter if you express your intentions or write a book, if you want to win the title of heaven and earth, you must follow the principles of heaven and earth."

"So the four grades of Confucianism and Taoism are also called knowing the destiny."

"Shouren, the opportunity you lack is the mandate of heaven. You must be clear about what is the law of heaven, what is the destiny of heaven, whether what you do is in compliance with the law of heaven, whether your clear intentions, words, and books are obedience." This fate."

"So you have to think about what your central idea is, and whether it is in accordance with the destiny."

When Xun Ru said this, he stopped talking.

There is no other reason.

If you say too much, it will affect Xu Qingxiao, so it's better to let Xu Qingxiao understand.

Inside the hall.

Xu Qingxiao did feel enlightened.

Know the destiny, follow the principles of heaven, the central idea.

Is this the core of the Great Confucianism of Heaven and Earth?

No wonder I feel that the public opinion is abundant, but I still can't break through to the realm of the great Confucianism of heaven and earth, but I never thought that there is such a thought in it.

own central idea.

Know the destiny and follow the principles of heaven.

Xu Qingxiao planned to go back and think about it carefully. If he could figure it out, he might really be able to directly become a great scholar in the world.

And there is no need to worry about overthrowing the seedlings.

"What about the method of sanctification?"

Xu Qingxiao asked curiously again.

It's just that after saying this, Xun Ru remained silent for a while, not because he didn't understand, but because he was thinking.

After a while, Xun Ru rang.

"The method of sanctification is easy to say, but very difficult to do."

"It is necessary to understand the holy will, establish the holy words, write the holy book, know the holy order, and gain the talents of the world."

Xun Ru opened his mouth and spoke out the method of becoming a saint.

"Is there no need to ask for public opinion?"

Chen Zhengru asked curiously.

"No need."

Xun Ru shook his head, then spoke.

"The road to holiness only requires you to re-understand your thoughts, re-establish your words, re-write books, and re-know the destiny."

"And you also need the talents of the world, and you can become a saint with the help of the scholars in the world."

"Once you step into the third-rank and a half-sacred realm, you will be respected by scholars all over the world. Although you are not a real saint, you are already almost there."

"In fact, in this world, immortals, Confucians, martial arts, demons, Buddhas, Confucianism and Taoism are the most inconceivable and hardest to understand."

"A warrior of the first rank possesses incredible strength, but there is still a rank of warrior in the whole world."

"Including the first rank of Immortal Dao and the first rank of Buddhism, there are all of them, but only the first rank of Confucianism and Taoism, there will not be one in every thousand years."

"Five generations of sages run through ancient and modern times."

"And from ancient to modern times, how many first-rank warriors and first-rank virtual immortals are there?"

"Thus, the third-rank semi-sage can sit on an equal footing with the first-rank, and the second-rank sub-sage can be worshiped by the first-rank. If a first-rank saint, he will be a person respected by the world."

"500 years ago, Zhu Sheng testified that the Great Wei Dynasty ushered in an unparalleled grand event, and the impact it brought was not just the immediate impact, but many benefits that you can't see and don't know."

"So, wanting to be holy is a good thing."

"But... don't be reckless, otherwise, you will be in trouble, and you will be in trouble."

Xun Ru's words seemed to remind him of something.

Xu Qingxiao felt Xun Ru's gaze, he knew what he was thinking, and Xun Ru had guessed it.

So Xun Ru spoke out to persuade him, subtly telling himself not to be impulsive.

However, Xu Qingxiao nodded, then stood up and bowed to Xun Ru.

"Thank you Xun Ru for teaching me."
