"That's all very well said. According to you, since the Han and Tang Dynasties, Confucianism has tended to focus on the theory of good nature, and most of it is hypocritical." Obviously, the Minister of Civil Affairs must take advantage of his free time to find some trouble for Song Yingchang. Because this difference is based on the majority of scholars.
"It's not the Han and Tang Dynasties, it's the Song Dynasty, especially since the Southern Song Dynasty. Confucian scholars in the Han and Tang Dynasties governed Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period, Lu's Spring and Autumn Period, etc. There were even people like Sang Hongyang who discussed salt and iron objectively. Everyone took it for granted. What I think has been since ancient times is actually since the Song Dynasty, especially since the Southern Song Dynasty. It is not the teachings of saints from ancient times." Song Yingchang continued to respond patiently.
In fact, Song Yingchang rarely thought about this before, which of the ancient times are truly ancient. Some of them are just the confused imagination of current scholars. It was the information that Gao Hanwen brought over some time ago that clearly stated that Song Yingchang began to think about this issue.
Furthermore, the current sages may only be what current scholars imagine, and what they really look like is unknown.
In the new information, the teacher's wife Xu Youzhi clarified the situation of polysemy in the evolution of language semantics, and even named this point. For example, the people of the Zhou Dynasty were limited to those within the city walls, and those outside the city walls were barbarians. The savages are worse than the slaves in the city.
The people in pre-Qin literature are often limited to distinguished gentry, not ordinary people.
But it is not easy to say this. If you say it, you will become a saint and support the gentry to protect the country's wealth.
"To be precise, according to the standards of your so-called Hangzhou New Learning, after the Song Dynasty, there were really scholars with good intentions." Obviously, Song Yingchang was not given a chance to think. The Minister of Civil Affairs directly asked a more specific question.
"Yes, there are many more, such as the Taizhou School that currently attaches great importance to the application of world affairs. For example, Zhu Zi proposed the method of studying things to achieve knowledge. Although Zhu Xi's school has become false, the method of studying things to achieve knowledge that Zhu Zi himself proposed is not precisely through the method of studying things to achieve knowledge. He strives to expand his knowledge in order to prevent the evil of human nature. However, most of his disciples have taken the books upside down and are just trying to catch fish."
"Ask the canal how clear it is, so that there is a source of living water. . Obviously, for Zhu Zi, the source of cognition lies in the practice of Confucianism. However, since the Southern Song Dynasty, many craftsmen have been able to learn Confucianism through the study of firearms. The great development of divine arm bows, muskets and artillery has been achieved. Otherwise, the turbulent central court of the Southern Song Dynasty would have been impossible to resist the attacks of the Jin Kingdom and the Mongols, and it would have been impossible to have a century-old society."
"Because of the craftsmen. It was difficult for households to enter the imperial examination, and the scholars were greedy for the merits of heaven and took the centuries of peace that they had gained from firearms for themselves. At the same time, in order to prevent the emperor from discovering the truth, the imperial court further suppressed the craftsmen who had studied Confucianism and entered the imperial examination. The world's most cutting-edge firearms power is out of touch. If things go on like this, when the Mongols such as the Jin Kingdom learn some firearms, the Southern Song Dynasty is destined to end without the turmoil in the Southern Song Dynasty."
"If you study history seriously, You will find that they are also firearms and have the most advanced firearms knowledge.The Southern Song Dynasty was just struggling to protect itself, but Mongolia, which barely learned the knowledge of igniters from the Jin Kingdom, was able to drink from the Rhine River and establish a Mongol empire that was ten times the size of the Ming Dynasty. The Yuan Empire that our Ming Dynasty defeated was just one of the five great khanates under the Mongol Empire. "
"Beyond the Dayuan Dynasty, there are four major khanates, namely the Chagatai Khanate, the Golden Horde Khanate, the Ogedai Khanate, and the Ili Khanate all the way to the west. In addition, there are many small khanates that Genghis Khan entrusted. Although most of these countries were annihilated, some still survived. ”
“Many people blame the military for the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, but the Southern Song Dynasty used culture to control military force. In fact, the defense of Xiangyang was carried out without civilian command. The battle to defend Diaoyu City was fought vigorously, especially when Diaoyu City directly killed Mongol Khan Mengge, completely splitting the Mongol Empire. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous. "
"So taking into account the imperial court, the combat potential of warriors, craftsmen, population, and wealth, you will naturally find that the problem lies in the literati court of the Southern Song Dynasty, which was famous for its independence. It can be seen that the misunderstanding and misunderstanding of Zhu Xi has caused serious disasters. ”
“If you are clever with your words, then Zhu Xi also emphasized that cultivating the mind and nature is the first priority.” This person is still insisting. And this sentence is true. It is really difficult to argue with normal.
"Stop using Zhu Zi to oppress others. The theory of sages is considered sages not because what they said is correct, but because they have corrected the academic degrees of their predecessors or made further progress based on their predecessors' work. ”
“Zhu Zi studied things to achieve knowledge, preserve the principles of nature, and destroy human desires. The essence is to explore the principles of external things, control them and benefit the people based on their principles rather than personal desires. This is the methodological development of Mencius’ theory of human nature. ”
“However, the proposal of theory and the realization of theory are separated. Zhu Xi lacked indicators such as benevolence and righteousness index to observe, so he could not strictly implement the realization of his theory. Finally fell into the dilemma of Confucius and Mencius. It’s just that the theory cannot be realized in vain. ”
“I would like to advise those who think saints are omnipotent and deify saints to think about it. If you master gunpowder technology, back to the Spring and Autumn Period when Sage Confucius lived, I am afraid that Sage Kong’s teachings will not be able to cope with the gunpowder technology in your hands. Sage Confucius would only sigh in vain."
"In addition, the worldview of the omnipotence of the sage is collapsed, that is, the world has become increasingly declining since the sage, and only the sage is the best. This means that he believes that the current imperial court will be destroyed as the world declines. It's ridiculous that when we usually say long live, we can't help ourselves. Yes and no." Song Yingchang said it with vigor and emphasis.
"You, you, you, the Six Classics have injected me with knowledge, but it is just another Six Classics that has injected me with knowledge." Come on, the Minister of Civil Affairs also escaped. It also seems to have ran away. Please remember to bookmark the latest and fastest website for free reading without anti-theft
