Chapter 143 Human Nature is Good and Evil ([-])
Liu Yuanyu once again refreshed Li Buqi's understanding of the lower limit of human beings, and everyone saw Li Buqi trembling like a wobble.

Seeing Li Buqi's anxious expression and Liu Yuanyu's secretly proud expression, this is definitely a final decision.

Hehe, if you, Li Buqi, can't think of a way to refute it, then others can publicize that there are problems with the "Three Character Classic" and mislead people's children. Will there still be so many people copying the "Three Character Classic"?Even if someone refuses to accept the debate and come back to debate, the battle of words will not be able to tell the winner for a while, as long as it delays next year's competition, so that your Li Buqi's literary name cannot be improved.

Do you want to imitate others and make yourself famous by writing books?Hehe, you are thinking too much.Gaining fame by writing a book is a double-edged sword. When no one wants to step on you, you can naturally make a name for yourself, but if someone wants to step on you, then your book will provide a target for others.With so many people staring wide-eyed and picking on your faults like now, can you still be as good as you?
However, this "Three Character Classic" is really well written, even if there are flaws, they are only at the level of flaws, and it is really hard for people to give up their love.However, the first sentence still has room for development because it involves the debate on "theory of good nature" and "theory of evil".

In the past, literati in the Song Dynasty had many debates about "theory of good nature" and "theory of evil", but people couldn't agree on what to do, and the debates often ended in nothing.But if this time there is no result like the previous debates, "San Zi Jing" will still have many fans, and the goal of beating Li Buqi will not be achieved.So Bianliang officials tacitly began to look for evidence to overthrow the "theory of good nature" from the day the "Three Character Classic" was circulated, and finally Liu Yuanyu found this seemingly unsolvable argument.As soon as it was brought up in the small circle, everyone nodded in agreement, and no way to refute it came to mind.So Liu Yuanyu was so confident that he wanted to overthrow Li Buqi to the ground at once.

It's like a nouveau riche who just bought a high-priced luxury and wants to show it off in front of others, can't wait!But Li Buqi always hides in Zhuangzi and does not show his face. Even if he enters the palace once, he comes and goes in such a hurry that it is difficult to stop him.Finally, someone came to tell him that Li Buqi had entered the palace, and Li Zhang and others were called in, and they probably wouldn't be able to get out for a while. How could he let go of this gathering?So as soon as the Yamen was scattered, he ran to Zuoyemen and waited. Seeing that so many colleagues were cheering here, he deserved to make a name for himself.As long as Li Buqi couldn't answer his question and these people coaxed him together, the "San Zi Jing" would not be able to stand up for a while.If you, Li Buqi, don't even think about passing the imperial examinations with publicity.

Sure enough, people shared the same heart, so someone said: "Li Tiju, Liu Yushi is right, didn't you think about it before writing the "San Zi Jing"?"

"Oh, it's too imprecise." "I still don't read enough!"

To be honest, when Li Buqi copied the "San Zi Jing", he really didn't expect that this sentence "human nature is good at the beginning" would be questioned. It was only just now that Mencius didn't have the title of "sub-sage" later, so it is not unquestionable. God, so Liu Yuanyu can refute sexual benevolence without any scruples.Moreover, Liu Yuanyu's question is indeed very tricky. If you tell him the evidence that no one understands now, he can completely close his eyes and ignore you.And if these people cannot be made to admit that the "theory of good nature" is correct, then the "San Zi Jing" will always be questioned.

But this is not a problem for Li Buqi, he is not going to present the facts and reason, but is directly going to use his power to overwhelm others.He saw that the soldiers of the Forbidden Army guarding the Zuoye Gate and some minor officials were all paying attention to this side, so he said loudly, "I don't know if Liu Yushi understands filial piety?"

Isn't this Mai Tai people?To be a censor requires being virtuous and upright. You say Liu Yuanyu doesn't understand filial piety, so does he have the face to be a censor?So Liu Yuanyu shouted immediately: "Naturally knows filial piety!"

Li Buqi asked: "Does Liu Yushi know that there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and the reason why having no descendants is the greatest?"

"It's natural!"

Li Buqi laughed and said, "But I think Liu Yushi doesn't understand this truth. If you understand this truth, you shouldn't accuse the baby of only knowing how to ask! Because the baby can avoid freezing and starving to death by asking for it, and the baby can keep the parents alive only if the baby lives. If you have a future, your parents will not be filial to your ancestors! Liu Yushi, may I ask if this is not goodness and what is it!"

All the people who were laughing and laughing at Li Buqi just now were all stunned as if they had been immobilized. No one thought that Li Buqi would be able to find evidence from "filial piety".The Song Dynasty established the country with filial piety, this is political correctness, who dares to speak casually?

Seeing that Liu Yuanyu was silent, Li Buqi asked again: "Liu Yushi, do you think it's good to save people from having future generations?"

"Uh, this..."

An official next to Liu Yuanyu said: "Even if people pass on the family line, they shouldn't demand too much and ignore their parents."

Li Buqi laughed out of anger: "Are you stupid? An ignorant baby just does his own duty. Do you want them to be born like gods and be able to hold Mount Tai to surpass the North Sea? As for teaching them That is the responsibility of the parents."

After finishing speaking, he gave the official a sideways look: "I don't know the official's surname. I can only say that it is a blessing for the people to be an official in Beijing. Officials have such high requirements for babies. If they are close to the people in the local Official, why don’t you ask the common people to worry about the court’s money and food every day like the princes?”

This time, the soldiers of the Imperial Army who were close couldn't hold back their joy.The official was so choked that he couldn't say anything, so he could only flick his sleeves.

At this time, an elderly official with a gray beard came forward: "Liu Yushi seems to have a wrong understanding of sexual goodness and sexual evil. From the old man's point of view, it should be like this..."

The old man took his time, starting with bird raw fish soup, and then he talked for a long time before he talked about Confucius and Mencius.Li Buqi looked up at the sky, it was getting late.There is still something to do in the evening, Li Buqi didn't want to continue to listen to him recite the scriptures, so he asked: "This official, I don't know what you want to say, can you explain it briefly? The boy has something to do at night, so I can't accompany you."

"Ahem, young people are always impatient, so let's make a long story short. The old man believes that people's nature is good at the beginning, and the nature of evil has not yet been determined. You can't just talk about good nature and not evil. This is misleading my son."

Li Buqi sighed and said: "Does the official know that the kid compiled a Mongolian book? Say the important thing three times: Mongolian book! Mongolian book! Mongolian book! It is for children!"

"Just now the officials also said that Liu Yushi's understanding of nature, goodness and evil is wrong. Since adults may have misunderstood it, do officials think children can understand it correctly? Do officials want to make children in Song Dynasty feel that they are born with sex? Evil, willing to be obscene? How is this different from prostitution and robbery? If officials dare to let a servant who can only read a few words teach their three or five-year-old grandson to read, "At the beginning of a person, nature is evil." This "Three Character Classic" can be changed."

"This, this...cough cough"

If it weren't for something happening at night, Li Buqi would actually want to teach these guys who have nothing to do and look for trouble again.But in fact, there is a serious business at night that cannot be delayed. Taking advantage of the grandfather's lack of words for a while, Li Buqi said bluntly: "Since you officials feel that the boy's "San Zi Jing" is poorly written, why don't you just write it?" It’s a good thing to benefit everyone. With a better Mongolian book, the kid doesn’t have to make a fool of himself. Well, that’s it, let’s say goodbye.”

After finishing speaking, regardless of other people's faces, he turned around and left.A group of civil servants behind him accused: "Zhuzi is immature!"

Li Buqi ignored them.This is the verbal violence that some people are used to, and you lose if you just ignore them, so the best thing to do is to ignore it.

Seeing that the sky was about to end, he hurried back home, changed his clothes and took Xie Yong and the two to slip out.After wandering around to the street behind the Guandi Temple, he saw a candle shop. Yang Silang was sitting at the door chatting with his master, and when he saw Li Buqi approaching, he turned back into the shop.So Li Buqi also dodged to follow in.
