Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 744 On Confucianism in the Lake (Fifth Watch)
"Master Xiao doesn't seem to be very interested in poetry?" Liu Rushi sensed the embarrassment of Chu Yun and his party, so he stopped the question and answer with Chen Zilong.

Chen Zilong also looked at Chu Yun suspiciously.Seeing Chu Yun dressed as a Confucian scholar, it's not like he can't answer a single sentence, right?

"To be honest, my family is a martial arts student, and I don't know much about poetry." Chu Yun said.He did start his career by relying on musket and force, but his ability to write and write is far behind.

"It turns out that Xiongtai is from a family of martial arts. As a warrior, he can be called a hero if he can fight for the country." Chen Zilong suddenly realized.

"Yes, the so-called different paths lead to the same goal, no matter whether you study literature or martial arts, you are all for the sake of serving the country." Chu Yun said.

"Which country is Brother Xiao talking about? The Ming Dynasty or the current country of the Kyushu Army?" Chen Zilong asked.

"Brother Chen, why do you ask this question? The country I'm talking about is the country of the Chinese people. No matter how the top changes, as long as the group of Chinese people with their faces facing the loess and their backs facing the sky are still the people below, and those who have the right to speak are still the people of Huaxia, then they will still be those people." One country. Mencius said that the people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least, which is the truth." Chu Yun said.

Chen Zilong was a little dizzy: "Brother Xiao's words were profound, but his tone seemed to be speaking for the Kyushu Army. The Kyushu Army didn't respect the way of Confucius and Mencius, and didn't abide by the teachings of their ancestors. They have deviated from the right path. Brother Xiao should draw a clear line with them as soon as possible. good."

"What is the righteous way?" Chu Yun asked back.

"Those who follow the righteous way are the principles of ethics. If the three cardinal guides and five constant principles are followed, the world will be stable." Chen Zilong said.

"Confucius and Mencius never expounded the Three Cardinal Principles and Five Constant Principles in such detail. They paid more attention to educational universal values ​​such as 'benevolence and righteousness' and 'loving others'. More content was created by future generations in order to maintain the rule of the king." Some unnecessary things. For example, only based on the sentence "junjunchenchen, father, father and son", the anonymous family in the Han Dynasty proposed the three cardinal principles and five constant principles. Confucius advocated the six arts of "ritual, music, archery, royal, book, and counting". Among them, archery is archery, and royal is To control a military chariot, Confucians should be both civil and military, and later generations have changed it to "poems, books, rites, music, changes, and spring and Autumn", and what they have learned is purely literati."

"Furthermore, the way of Confucius and Mencius also has its own limitations. They lived in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but they wanted to restore the ritual and music system of the earlier Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Now it is more than 2000 years since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and some contents are inevitably outdated. Why not take the essence and discard the dross ?”

"The ancestors wrote the Four Books and Five Classics in order to explain their thoughts to future generations and inspire future generations, not to let future generations take this as a dogma and stand still. Now the times have changed, and scholars do not have the talents of previous sages. Handan imitated the language and writing of the ancients like a toddler, if the ancients knew it, they would be laughable and generous."

When Chu Yun mentioned the inheritance of Confucianism, he was finally able to eloquently.As a culture that has been passed down for more than 2000 years, Confucianism naturally has its essence and tears of the times. It does not conform to dialectics if it is fully inherited or completely negated.

Chen Zilong frowned slightly when he heard that Chu Yun was criticizing the values ​​he had believed in for 20 years, and he also said some terms he didn't understand, such as 'universal value' and 'dogma', which made him feel uncomfortable.

"Brother Xiao, could it be that he has been bewitched by the Kyushu Army? How can he make false remarks about a saint?" Chen Zilong's expression was displeased.

Seeing that Chu Yun could not answer the source of the poem, Liu Rushi was a little contemptuous of Chu Yun at first, but when he heard Chu Yun's novel argument, he thought about how to fight back against Chu Yun for Chen Zilong, but he couldn't think of how to refute Chu Yun's statement for a while. .Recalling what Chu Yun said in detail, it is well-founded and completely different from the scholars who have contacted in the past who spare no effort to praise the way of Confucius and Mencius.

"I don't mean to make unreasonable remarks. Confucius and Mencius are enough to be called saints. So far my thoughts have been influenced by them, but it is a pity that for a long time, they were used as a fig leaf for the emperor." Chu Yun continued.

"Forget it, you and I are not on the same path, Brother Xiao, please go back!" Chen Zilong was upset with Chu Yun, and stood up.

"Then I'll take my leave." Chu Yun cupped his hands to Chen Zilong.

"But this fish..." Goya couldn't help but feel sorry when he saw that the two sides were full of gunpowder and coveted the "Three Whites of Taihu Lake" who hadn't moved their chopsticks much.

"Miss Goya, I'll invite you to eat at a nearby restaurant later. You can order as much as you like." Yu Cheng quickly whispered to Goya, knowing that Chu Yun rarely failed to control his emotions. This outburst showed that he was really angry.

"What you said, don't go back on your word." Goya rolled his eyes, losing the "Taihu Sanbai" delicacy, in exchange for any other Taihu delicacy, it seems that it is not a loss.

"It's all up to you." Yu Cheng just wanted to get Goya out of here quickly.

Chen Zilong looked at Chu Yun and his party who left the boat, and couldn't help muttering: "This man is from the capital. The capital is the place where the Kyushu Army took the lead in implementing the New Deal. It's really terrible. Everyone doesn't follow the teachings, and it's not a Confucian sage at all. It's over. The world is going down, people's hearts are not old."

Liu Rushi frowned, still thinking about what Chu Yun said.This man seems to be very different from the scholars she has seen in Fushe and Jishe. The difference is not in his appearance, but in his whole thought. It seems that his thought is ahead of this era, like a star in the dark. Nova.Just who is he?It seems that no one with the surname Xiao has been a military officer in the dynasty.

"Master, you seem to be angry?" Yu Cheng didn't dare to ask, and only Ella could ask Chu Yun.

"Yes, the Confucianism I study is not the distorted Confucianism of this era, but the real Confucianism. It is very difficult to make them realize this." Chu Yun sighed helplessly.He also has deep love and deep responsibility. Confucianism has a great influence on him, but it is definitely not Confucianism that serves feudal ethics.

"Don't be impatient, the military leader. We have enough time to change all this. If one generation is not enough, then two or three generations. As long as we have the right to speak, we can turn Confucianism right and make it more suitable for the trend." Ella persuaded road.

"You're right, I was too anxious." Chu Yun left Chen Zilong's boat, and the lake wind blew, and he gradually calmed down. delicious food!"

Everyone went to the shore of Taihu Lake, many local shops erected banners, and many traveling merchants set up stalls here during the meeting of the tiger and hills in Taihu Lake.The Jiangnan area is originally a place with developed commerce, and there are countless small merchants and hawkers.

"Several guest officials, would you like to come to our small shop for a seat? We have the signature Dingsheng cake here, as well as lake delicacies such as Taihu Sanbai and river mussels." A shop waiter who was out to solicit business Seeing Chu Yun with a few women and guards, he knew that Chu Yun must be the son of a rich family, so he came over and said flatteringly.
