Chapter 215 Digging the Grave for Neo Confucianism

In "The Analects of Confucius", Ren is the fourth.

Confucius said: "If you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die in the evening."

Xie Jin used this to express his choice, which is enough to explain everything.

Zhu Yunxi had some worries in his heart, and said softly: "Brother Dashen, once you start this matter, it is impossible for you to retreat completely."

Xie Jin's eyebrows were serious: "Xia Weizhe was in Zhejiang Road, and Iron Dingshi was in Wa Kingdom. It is also an uneasy situation. You must be cautious in everything you do. The ministers and grandchildren do not dare to forget. The only thing that is loyal to the emperor is Do your best and die!"

In fact, when talking about Tie Xuan and Xia Yuanji, Xie Jin felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

Since last year, the three of them were selected by the grandson to enter the palace as counselors for the government, and it seems that they have become the emperor's grandson party at that time.Xia Yuanji is a newcomer in the household department, and he is skilled in economics.Tie Xuan was also diligent and diligent in his job in the Ministry of Rites, with outstanding abilities and a lot of understanding of military affairs, otherwise he would not go far to Japan this time.

But only he, the so-called Qinggui Hanlin, didn't seem to have the same advantages. When Tie Xia and Tie Xia left Beijing for business, he was the only one who was left in Yingtian City.

This made Xie Jin, who was still young, always unacceptable.

Young people must be competitive.

Even friends of the same age have to compare themselves.

At this time, if I can promote the theory of elaborating the mind, spread the theory of the unity of knowledge and action to the world, and be able to do things in a real way, wouldn't it just fit the principle of the unity of knowledge and action?

He wants to fight for a Confucian sage!
I have to fight for the ministers of a country!
Zhu Yunxi looked at Xie Jin who was full of fighting spirit, smiled and shook his head: "Since Lu Jiuyuan, although Xinxue has been suppressed by Neo Confucianism, there are still many disciples in the world. With the principle of unity of knowledge and action, you can contact these people. Big Gentleman, do you understand?"

Finally, Zhu Yunxi looked at Xie Jin with deep eyes.

Xie Jin looked over, understood in his heart, and nodded silently.

The grandson is the grandson of the Ming Dynasty. When the Confucian sects are in conflict, the best attitude for Sheji is to stay out of it.

After all, it is a matter that affects the whole body. This is a matter of digging people's graves. Compared with the tax reform in Zhejiang Province, it is just a matter of money and grain.

Xie Jin nodded: "I know that there are several old gentlemen who have always regarded Mr. Xiangshan as a senior elder. Today, I will contact you by letter and invite you to Beijing."

Zhu Yunxi couldn't help smiling when he thought of the extra old dogs on Lion Mountain.

Those are the leaders of today's Shilin, and they are also at the helm of Neo Confucianism.

Now that Xie Jin is going to invite seniors from Xinxue to Beijing, Ying Tiancheng seems to be about to stage a scene of fighting in the ring quietly.

Perhaps a long and protracted debate will soon be staged in Yingtian City.

And under this, it is the Enke of the imperial court this year, the tax reform of Zhejiang Province, the implementation of the policy of the world, and the entry of the clan kings to Beijing this year.

A huge stage has been quietly weaved out.

Just wait for one party to step onto the stage and see who can sing to the end.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxi said: "Fuzhou Mountain is a good place. It is backed by the city wall, and Xuanwu Lake is outside. On one side is Jilong Mountain and Guozijian, and on the other side is Taiping Gate. Brother Dashen will invite the seniors of Xinxue to come to Beijing , and can be placed on Fuzhou Mountain.”

You have Lion Mountain, and I have Fuzhou Mountain.

Lion into the river also overturned!

Xie Jin said even more self-evidently: "At that time, I can still use the name of a few old gentlemen to give lectures on the study of mind on Fuzhou Mountain, and invite students from the Imperial College to listen to the lectures."

Zhu Yunxi drank the tea soup in front of him, stood up, looked back at Xie Jin, and reminded quietly: "The right guard of the government army is stationed in front of Fuzhou Mountain, and Yutian will send a sign later."

Xie Jin's expression froze, and he was going to send the grandson out of the yamen of the Imperial Academy.

But because of this sentence, he stood on the spot.

"Will the argument come to the point of the sword?"

Xie Jin murmured in a low voice with a hint of hesitation.

……

After leaving the yamen of the Imperial Academy, Sun Cheng looked at the grandson in front of him.

"Third Master, the news just came out that they are already preparing to impeach Ren Hengtai."

Zhu Yunxi fixed his feet and looked at the yamen of the Ministry of Rites not far away: "Let them make trouble, and no one cares about this matter."

Today's thoughts on psychology have been sent to Xie Jin in advance by myself.

Zhu Yunxi believes that with Xie Jin's talent and learning, it is not difficult to complete today's few words.And with his own embellishment and guidance, the new psychology will only develop in the direction he needs.

What the crown prince said is correct. At this time, the Ming Dynasty cannot live without Confucianism. This is one of the foundations of the old Zhu family's governance, and it is also the consensus of the people of the world.

What kind of Confucianism is needed is what I should think about.

Before coming to the Imperial Academy this year, Zhu Yunxi thought of restoring Gongyang Confucianism, but he knew that it was out of date.

The Ming Dynasty would never allow the existence of rangers, nor would it allow the folks to enjoy their grievances.

The core idea of ​​Gongyang Confucianism can only be grasped by the royal family.

It can only be pushed to a dominant position when it is used overseas.

Looking at it from all directions, only a brand-new system of mind can change the current situation of the ruling and opposition parties, and can dig a grave for Neo-Confucianism from within Confucianism and bury it underground.

Today I only talked to Xie Jin about one thought of learning from the heart, one thing about running a bookstore and newspaper.

In fact, Zhu Yunxi still has unfinished business.

Widely open up practical subjects, and the imperial examinations are included in practical subjects to admit imperial scholars and enter the imperial court as officials.

It's just that this matter should be put behind the upcoming debate between the science of psychology and Neo-Confucianism. Only after the science of psychology wins this debate is the time to implement it.

"Third Master, where are you going now?"

Sun Cheng's words would always be cleverly chosen to appear at the end of Zhu Yunxi's thinking.

Zhu Yunxi raised his head slightly. Today's spring rain has stopped at some point.

He smiled silently: "Go for a walk in Midtown."

Yingtian City occupies a very large area, and the East City is where the imperial city and the offices of various ministries of the imperial court are located.

From the root of the West Emperor City to the west, there are residences of meritorious officials in the court.

The west city is full of barracks and fertile fields, with few people around.

Only Nancheng and Zhongcheng can be regarded as the essence of Yingtian City, and they are also the most lively and prosperous places with the Qinhuai River.

Sun Cheng was stunned for a moment, not quite sure what the grandson meant by visiting Midtown at this time.

He had no choice but to turn around and tell his subordinates to protect the grandson's safety when they arrive in the city.

A few people have already crossed the Dazhong Bridge in a short while, even if they have reached the range of Zhongcheng.

After crossing Dazhong Bridge, walk along Zhongzheng Street, cross Shengping Bridge, then pass Jewelry Gallery, Yangshi Bridge, Xiajiekou, and Hongzhi Gallery.Standing at the intersection of Dawangfu Lane, you can see a magnificent palace located at the northwest corner of Dawangfu Lane and Chaotiangong West Street, occupying a large area.

This is where Chaotian Palace is located.

The Chaotian Palace at this time was rebuilt and renamed by Hongwu in 17 years.

It has always been the place where the court practiced etiquette before the ceremony, and it was also the place where the meritorious children of the court learned how to meet the emperor before they took the title.

In addition, it is the place where Taoist Sanqing is worshipped, and incense is offered by civil, military and common people of the Manchu Dynasty.

When you get off the stele in front of Chaotian Palace, you don't need Zhu Yunxi to signal.

Sun Cheng had already taken off his saber and placed it outside Chaotian Palace.

At this time, a Taoist came out of Chaotian Palace.

"The grandson is here, the path can guide the grandson."

Zhu Yunxi shook his head with a smile and rejected the other party's kindness. He had been to this place many times before.

Although the layout may be slightly different today, there will not be much difference.

Pass through the Shenjun Hall, the Sanqing Main Hall, and the Datongming Palace in front, and arrive at the Long Live Main Hall.

Zhu Yunxi ordered: "You stay here."

As soon as he entered the hall, he was attracted by a figure with his back turned to him.

I saw him wearing a dark blue double-breasted jacket with a horse face skirt inside, kneeling before all the gods.

Zhu Yunxi opened his eyes and looked around the hall, but there were no Taoist priests from Chaotian Palace.

He silently stepped forward and knelt down on the futon next to the man.

"I never thought that I could meet my aunt here."

Zhu Yunxi had no intention of worshiping the god in front of him, so he straightened his body and looked sideways at Xu Miaojin, who was praying silently with his eyes closed.

It seems that no one else would appear here.

Xu Miaojin, who was praying for her elder brothers in Shaanxi and her eldest sister in Beiping, opened her eyes to Zhu Yunxi who was close at hand with surprise on her face.

"Why did the grandson come here?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly: "Why is Auntie here?"

Xu Miaojin was stunned, and bit her cherry lips lightly: "I am praying for my family."

"Didn't my aunt ever pray for her marriage?" Zhu Yunxie glanced at the young aunt's face that was not made up but pure and pure, and asked in a low voice.

Xu Miaojin's cheeks were quietly stained red, and she glanced at Zhu Yunxi with some dissatisfaction: "The minister has finished praying, and there are still some unfinished things at home..."

Zhu Yunxi interrupted, "Does my aunt know when Wei Guogong will return to Beijing?"

Just about to get up and leave, Xu Miaojin, who didn't want to stay with the emperor's grandson whose eyes always make her feel uncomfortable, had to stop her movement of leaving when she heard this.

He looked sideways.

Xu Miaojin asked in a low voice: "My elder brother was ordered to go to Shaanxi to practice frontier army horses last year. When he can return to Beijing, everything will be discussed by the court, and then His Majesty will make a decision."

Zhu Yunxie said softly: "As for the matter of the military academy, I ordered the Ministry of Industry and the general to be the supervisor a few days ago to start construction in Xicheng. How luxurious it is, it can probably be done before the end of the year."

Xu Miaojin's eyes flickered.

She understood the deep meaning in the emperor grandson's words.

Once the academy is finished, the next step is to choose the veterans who have meritorious service in the army to be the masters, and then select the children of various families and the generals in the army to enroll.

He glanced at the man in front of him.

Xu Miaojin sighed inwardly, he was fighting back for the last time he stopped him in front of the Jiaofang Secretary at night!

But Xu Miaojin could only ask in a low voice: "Is the grandson picking the head of the academy?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head: "The dean is my Majesty, Emperor Hongwu of Ming Dynasty. However, the deputy dean has to choose a few more people. I don't know what my aunt thinks, can Wei Guogong take on this important task?"
