Zhang Juzheng never expected that when he sent out three books, he received ninety volumes of manuscripts. He had experienced what it means to repay each other with springs.
The three volumes of the New Meanings of the Three Classics sent out were organized by Wang Anshi to reinterpret the Zhou Rites, the Book of Songs, and the Book of Songs on the basis of telling children that their nature is neither good nor evil.
Academically speaking, Wang Anshi is basically the only person since the pre-Qin Dynasty who insists that sex is neither good nor evil, and has written a special book and put it into practice.
Ever since Dong Zhongshu started to respect Confucianism exclusively, the theory of good nature has been really hard to shake. Even if Wang Anshi was once the King of Shu and his subordinates had too many lackeys, nothing could be changed.
Starting from the fact that there is no good or evil in nature, then what determines good and evil? Wang Anshi’s answer was "reason". What is reasonable is good, and what is unreasonable is evil.
Then what is reason?
In fact, Zhang Juzheng has only been able to figure out some clues after reading it for so many years.
Principalists, the natural needs of birth, old age, illness and death.
If it complies with this natural need, it is good, otherwise it is evil.
But if you understand it this way, there will be a problem, that is, people have different needs for life, old age, illness and death, which will inevitably lead to things that are good for me and not good for others.
The only trick Zhang Juzheng could think of was the principles of the world. As long as this principle is accepted by most people in the world, it is universal good. Only universal good is true and good, otherwise it may be hypocrisy.
Song Yingchang, who received the book, quickly wrote to his teacher to ask for advice and then stepped up his research.
Because there is no good or evil in nature, it is a bridge between Confucianism and Luo Xue. Only after crossing this bridge can we communicate in words that Confucian scholars can understand. Being understandable is the prerequisite for gaining support.
As for the support of coal gentry everywhere, Song Yingchang is not very optimistic. After all, the number of coal gentry was too small. It is still difficult to make a comeback and form a trend.
Powerful merchants manage finances with righteousness, and because of the power of the world, the world's wealth is generated to support the world's expenses.
For a whole day, Song Yingchang felt dizzy from reading. Obviously, once you are used to the logically rigorous and formally standardized arguments of Hangzhou New Learning, when you look at other books, you can only say that it is really a blow to your head.
Song Yingchang was dizzy and focused on the reason.
Obviously, Song Yingchang knew intuitively that Wang Anshi, like other great Confucians, did not clearly define the scope of his discussion, whether it was based on individuals or on the basis of the world.
Because my mentor Gao Hanwen emphasized that the correct conclusions of an individual cannot be taken for granted and directly applied to the world. The prerequisites for microscopic inference may not exist or be the same at the macroscopic level.
Obviously, at the micro level, everyone wants to be rich and powerful, and works hard to achieve it. If everyone in the world is like this, it may directly lead to chaos in the world. Let alone wealth, most people It's difficult to stay alive.
Obviously, toHere, Song Yingchang almost knew what he was going to do.
Didn’t the literati of that time want to criticize Wang Anshi to deny the Hangzhou New Learning? As long as the Hangzhou New Learning scolds Wang Anshi louder and more rationally, people will have nothing to say.
Only by drawing a clear line with Wang Anshi can we resolve those hypocrites who use the "Jingkang shame" as a label and make false threats.
It’s just a pity for Wang Jinggong.
Fortunately, one of the specialties of Hangzhou Xinxue is to criticize the sages. The discipline grows by discovering the shortcomings of the sages.
After all, only by scolding Wang Anshi can we strictly follow Wang Anshi's reform motto: "There is no need to fear changes in nature, no fear in ancestors, and no fear in human words."
Only the descendants who scold Wang Anshi may be Wang Anshi's loyal apprentices.
In other words, it shouldn’t be considered treasonous to recognize an academic ancestor for your teacher. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
