MTL - I-Chapter 62 061【Sophistry】

   Chapter 62 061 [Sophistry]

   Hanzhu Academy.

  Under the big camphor tree, it was full of students early on.

   The two scholars who wanted to go to work also planned to leave after listening to the debate.

  How rare, how lively, it is hard to meet in a lifetime.

  Scholars, Tong Sheng and school children, most of them hold the mentality of watching a play. The teachers relied on their status and were unwilling to debate with a child. If they lost, they would definitely lose face, and if they won, they would gain nothing.

  There are only a few fake Taoism, and they are eager to try it now, wanting to teach Zhao Han a profound lesson.

   "Senior, please."

   "Friends first."

  Pang Chunlai and Zheng Zhongkui came side by side. The two hit it off right away, and within three days they became close friends.

  Yuyao scholar Zhu Zhiyu did not follow Cai Maode, but came alone with a sword, sitting under a big camphor tree, reading a book and waiting.

   "Hey, here comes a demon!"

   "It's a shame!"

   "Isn't that brother Changhuai? I haven't seen you for a few years, but he likes to wear different clothes?"

   "..."

  The scene of the debate meeting suddenly boiled over, but it was Fei Ruyi who made his debut, instantly attracting everyone's attention and becoming the most beautiful boy in the entire academy.

  Serve the demon!

  From the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, whenever the rituals and music collapsed, there must be demons in the world.

  Nowadays, many ministers also serve demons, and they use thrift as an excuse. Their court dress belts were made of leather according to the regulations, but they were made of bamboo shoot shells, just for the sake of lightness-the belts are loose and have no binding function, and they are wrapped in green silk, so they are not afraid of the bamboo shoot shells being broken.

   Facing the advice and comments from teachers and students, Fei Ruyi didn't feel ashamed, instead, he deliberately slowed down so that people could appreciate his beauty.

   This is fashion from Suzhou, what do a bunch of hillbillies know?

   Walking in front of Zhao Han, Fei Ruyi smiled and said, "Zi said, are you ready?"

  Zhao Han's chrysanthemum tightened suddenly, and he stepped back and cupped his fists: "Thank you for your concern, Brother Changhuai, I'm just doing my best."

   Seeing Zhao Han's subconscious reaction, Fei Ruyi felt very sad. How could such a handsome young man resist himself?

  He swept towards Zhao Han again, Fei Ruhe was too strong, Fei Yuanjian looked mediocre... Hey, Fei Ruyi suddenly stared at Fei Chun, this boy is not bad looking.

  Fei Chun's scalp was numb from the sight, and he moved sideways behind Fei Ruhe.

   At this moment, Fei Yuanlu and Cai Maode came out together.

  There are several chairs under the big camphor tree, Fei Yuanlu smiled and said, "Inspector, please take a seat."

   "It's so, but it's disrespectful." Cai Maode sat in the middle.

Fei Yuanlu said loudly: "There is a crazy student in the Academy, Fei Han, who wrote an article advocating heresy, which has aroused the righteous indignation of the teachers and students. The imperial government treats scholars preferentially, and they will not be punished for their words, and the Academy is no different. Today, the debate will be held. The teachers and students of the Academy You can take turns to ask questions, and you must correct the bias of this boy...Jiangxi Governor Cai Gong, condescended to come to Hanzhu Academy, this is a blessing for all the teachers and students of the academy. I invite Cai Gong to be the president of today's debate."

Cai Maode got up slowly and bowed to the surroundings: "Masters, it's a pleasure to meet you! More than 400 years ago, Zhu Zi and Erlu argued in the E Lake, which is called the 'Debate of E Lake'. Today, imitating the sages, we can call it 'Han The debate of pearls'. A gentleman is harmonious but different. No matter who wins or loses, don't hurt the peace. The winner should guard against arrogance and impetuosity, abide by the heart, and seek the law of heaven; the loser should not be discouraged, but should be brave Advanced knowledge."

  The Debate on Goose Lake has great and far-reaching significance in the history of Chinese thought development, and its influence has continued until the Republic of China.

  At that time, Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism faced Lu Jiuyuan and Lu Jiuling's Psychology.

  Zhu Xi advocated reading more, observing things more, and communicating with others more, so as to sum up experience and comprehend the principles of heaven through studying things and gaining knowledge.

  Erlu advocates first to make up your mind and recognize your original mind, the mind is the reason. Follow your ambition and heart, and not be disturbed by external objects, and then observe and transform the world.

  No one is right and who is wrong. If ordinary people practice it, Neo Confucianism tends to follow the trend and go with the tide, and Mind Science tends to be divorced from reality and become arrogant and extreme.

   "Who is Fei Han?" Cai Maode asked suddenly.

  Zhao Han walked to the center of the debate, bowed his hands together and said, "The late students pay respects to the supervisor."

  Cai Maode smiled and asked: "How old is it?"

  Zhao Han replied: "The imaginary age is fifteen."

  Cai Maode asked again: "Your dissenting views were taught by the teacher?"

  Zhao Han replied: "The ancient and modern sages are all my teachers."

   "Haha," Cai Maode was amused, "You are really arrogant at such a young age, I will wait and see!"

   Zhao Han said: "You should try your best to argue."

   Cai Maode said to the crowd: "Today's debate is whether all people in the world are created equal. Fei Han, please explain your argument."

  Zhao Han stood with his hands behind his back, and said loudly: "There is no need to elaborate, the article has already written clearly. If anyone has any questions, just ask them, and I will answer them myself."

   Extremely arrogant!

   "Okay," Maud Tsai announced, "Let's talk about gender equality first. Who wants to speak?"

  The teachers were silent, unwilling to argue with the students.

   "Let me ask!"

  Fei Ruyu stood up suddenly. This guy is in his twenties, and he is still a child.

  Zhao Han smiled and said, "Senior, please tell me."

  Fei Ruyu was full of confidence: "Do you know the three obediences and the four virtues?"

  Zhao Han said: "Three obediences: Obey the father before marriage, obey the husband after marriage, and obey the son after the husband dies. Four virtues: women's virtue, women's words, women's appearance, and women's merit."

  Fei Ruyu asked: "Since following the father, husband, and son, how can there be equality between men and women?"

  Zhao Han asked back: "What is a private respect?"

   "What?" Fei Ruyu didn't understand.

   Zhao Han sneered: "You use "Yili" to ask me, and I have already answered what are the three obediences. I use "Yili" to ask you, why don't you answer what is private respect?"

  Fei Ruyu only knows the three obediences and four virtues, how could he know that the "three obediences" come from "Yi Li"?

  Even if the book is "Book of Rites", the imperial examination will not take "Yi Li".

  If you don’t take the imperial examination, then what a fart!

   Zhao Han planned it long ago. In the past three years, he has read all the Confucian classics. I don't recite it, I only remember the general meaning, and I deliberately find faults in the book.

  Zhao Han no longer paid attention to Fei Ruyu, but looked around: "Three Congregations are from "Yi Li", if you haven't read this book, don't talk nonsense to me!"

  As soon as this remark came out, the audience was embarrassed.

   Not to mention ordinary teachers and students, even the head of the mountain, Fei Yuanlu, has never read "Yi Li".

Suddenly, Zhu Zhiyu, a scholar from Yuyao, stood up and said, "Father is the son's respect. When the father is alive, the son is not allowed to respect his mother. He can only respect his mother privately. Private respect also. The meaning of 'there is no two suns' just shows the inequality between men and women. "

  Zhao Han asked: "Since he respects his mother privately, it can be seen that the mother is also respected. How can there be the saying that 'the husband dies and obeys the son'?"

Zhu Zhiyu explained: "If you are not married, obey your father, if you are married, obey your husband, and if your husband dies, obey your son. Women respect men. There are no two days, and only one is respected. When the father is alive, the son respects his mother privately. When the father dies, the mother respects the man." His son."

   "Rituals" is a tool to determine the code of etiquette, and its purpose is to consolidate the ruling order.

  If it is placed in the royal family, the above discussion can be understood as: the emperor is not dead, the prince wants to respect the emperor, he can only respect the queen in private. The emperor died, the prince became the new emperor, and the queen became the queen mother, then the queen mother must respect the emperor (son).

   This is a matter of transformation of respect and inferiority, both for the royal family and for the folk.

  Zhao Han looked at Zhu Zhiyu, feeling very helpless.

   Alas, I met a knowledgeable person!

  Historically, Zhu Zhiyu’s academic thoughts have gone through three periods.

  At this time, Zhu Zhiyu did not turn to practical learning, but devoted himself to the study of pre-Qin ancient learning. He paid homage to several teachers one after another, and they all ran to become officials one after another. The teacher was ordered to become an official, and Zhu Zhiyu could only travel around. During this time, he followed Cai Maode everywhere.

  Zhao Han's half-knowledge can only bully laymen, and immediately catch blind when encountering professionals.

   Then mess around, pull the opponent to your own level, and then defeat him with your own rich experience!

  Zhao Han had a plan in advance: "Excuse me senior, the father beheaded the eldest son for three years, why?"

  If it is translated into vernacular, it means that as a father, why should the eldest son be mourned for three years?

  Zhu Zhiyu replied: "The eldest son inherits the orthodox body of the ancestor, and bears the heavy responsibility of inheriting the ancestral temple. As a father, he is not mourning for his son, but for the inheritance of the ancestral temple."

   Waiting for your words!

  Zhao Han asked loudly: "In today's world, is there any father who mourns for his son for three years?"

  Zhu Zhiyu was speechless, but bit the bullet and said, "No."

  Zhao Han said loudly: "Women have three obediences, the etiquette of the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Now that the customs are changing, why do you need to obey? If you want to obey, then you have to do it all. When the father mourns for his son for three years, I will admit that men are superior to women!"

"well said!"

   Fei Ruyi applauded.

  Zhu Zhiyu was dumbfounded: I'm reasoning with you, but you talk about customs with me, why don't you be so shameless?

  A teacher named Li Sheng said: "This is not changing customs, but the collapse of rituals and music. Since rituals and music have collapsed, we scholars should abide by rituals and not go with the world!"

Zhao Han cupped his hands and said, "Sir, may I ask how long the courtiers should mourn for the emperor according to the "Rituals"? When the emperor of the Ming Dynasty passed away, how long should the courtiers mourn for? Could it be that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was sympathetic to all people and did not abide by the Shang and Zhou rites?" System, is it also taking the lead in the collapse of rites and music?"

  The teacher was speechless.

   There is no way to say it, if you say it, you will slander the king!

  Cai Maode couldn't help admiring: "What a nonsense, such a hard and white technique!"

  What is the art of firmness and whiteness?

  Sophistry!

  Zhao Han turned to Cai Maode, cupped his hands and said, "The inspector said that I was honest, and that night I was born to speak uprightly. Teachers and students, listen carefully!"
