Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 260 Ancient Greek Tradition, Sub-saint Neo-Confucianism!

Shi Huizhen's remarks silenced everyone again.No way, for everyone, this sentence can no longer be answered...

If battlefield veteran Socrates, or Olympic boxing champion Plato were here in person, they would be able to debate this principled issue.But the Greeks present obviously did not have the physique and spirit of their ancestors. Facing Shi Huizhen's intentional or unintentional difficulties, everyone could only keep silent.

In the end, as the host, Frajos could only bite the bullet and come out to deal with it.

"Each of us has different hobbies and different understandings of the value of one thing, which is normal." He said: "At the beginning, the 'first philosopher' Thales observed the stars at night, but he didn't pay attention to his feet. Accidentally fell into the well. A Thracian servant girl next to him laughed at him, saying that he didn't even understand the things on the ground, but cared about the things in the sky."

"Of course, those of us who have been educated and exposed to wisdom don't need to be offended or embarrassed by this. Neither Thales nor the barbarian handmaid should be blamed, because different people have different concerns. Plato later commented , but anyone who is engaged in philosophy will always be teased like this. This was originally a normal episode in the pursuit of wisdom."

After he finished speaking, he shrugged and glanced at Shi Huizhen.

These remarks seem fair, but in fact they have been secretly saying that Shi Huizhen is like a barbarian.Rather than saying "everyone respects each other's hobbies", it is better to say "you can't understand our wisdom anyway, so don't mix it up".

Shi Huizhen thought for a while, but she didn't know if she understood, so she nodded.

Vlahos smiled triumphantly at his friends, and was about to say something, but Shi Huizhen said: "I heard from Theodora that Thales later successfully predicted the harvest of olives, so people praised him for his wisdom. Approved."

"Yes." Flajos nodded subconsciously: "For wise people, this is not a difficult task, but their energy is concentrated in other places, and they don't care much about mundane things. "

"Then can you predict when your head will have a good harvest?" Shi Huizhen reminded: "It's so barren there!"

"I..." Frajos was so angry that she couldn't speak for a moment.

"I heard from the priests that the top of the head is the place close to the heavenly father, and it is not an ordinary place!" Seeing that he was silent, Shi Huizhen hurriedly reminded: "I think, you should pay attention."

"..."

However, seeing that he didn't speak, Shi Huizhen became serious.She tilted her head curiously, and asked, "Can't you predict it with your wisdom?"

Frajos suddenly felt that there was no way to answer this question.Whether you say yes, say no, or find an excuse to shirk, you will make yourself a laughing stock.But if you don't answer, this guy will probably be entangled until the end of the banquet.

No way, he had no choice but to say displeasedly: "This is beyond the scope of what humans can do, and it is not what humans should do."

"Then you should continue to work hard in this direction and pay more attention." Shi Huizhen pointed out.

"Why?" Frajos didn't understand the logic in her words.

"You don't farm, you don't fight, and you don't even manage your family's slave business." Shi Huizhen also analyzed: "You never do what people do. That's why you should do more Don't people do it?"

"???" Frajos didn't know how to answer for a moment.

His friends all looked a little embarrassed, and some of the other guests started to laugh.

"There is no rush for this kind of thing, let's talk about the banquet first." Flajos had to forcefully change the subject:

"We can talk a lot at ordinary times, you can say whatever you want. But since this is a party, I still think that we should abide by the previous habits. If you can't understand these, I'm sorry I can't take care of them, because I can only prioritize most customer experience."

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden?" Shi Huizhen didn't react.

"What are you doing with a sword?" Frajos pointed to her waist.

"Thales said you can't bring it to the banquet?" Shi Huizhen asked back.

"Uh……"

"Or Socrates?"

"I'm the master here, can't I make the rules?" Vlajos felt like he was about to be entangled by her.

"The master can't make unreasonable demands." Shi Huizhen insisted: "In the banquet hall, you can't use military discipline to manage everyone. Because of the rules of different places, after all, there must be a reason."

"..."

Frajos was speechless for a moment.

Shi Huizhen often insisted on "reasoning" with others, and when she became stubborn, even Tuo Huan and Guo Kang's good temper couldn't stand her.Frajos had nothing to do with her, he could only stand dumbfounded.

And Shi Huizhen quickly found a ready-made example.She pointed to a young man wearing a long robe and a sword hanging beside her, and asked, "You don't have to let me take it, but why can he take it?"

"He's a man, of course he can take it. But you're not." Flajos spread his hands and replied.

"Thales said that men can take it, but I can't?" Shi Huizhen still didn't believe it.

"..."

"Or Socrates?"

"Why are you asking again..."

"This kind of thing has no express legal regulations, and there is no record in the scriptures. There is not even a Roman Confucianist, bishop or imam who writes it into his own notes. Isn't it just arbitrarily compiled? How can this make people Are people convinced?" Shi Huizhen questioned.

"So, I think you have to at least give a theoretical source. Otherwise, I said that women's saber is what is praised in the tradition of my hometown, and it is a moral respected by the local area. Isn't it okay?"

It was only then that Flajos realized that the other party might have intentionally set up a logical trap to lure him into sophistry.But he still has some doubts, does this person really have such wisdom?
According to previous understanding, she didn't like reading very much since she was a child, that is to say, she has a rough knowledge of literature and ink, and she has read some enlightenment books.Recently, the queen and princess have forced her to read some books.Judging from his previous performance, he really doesn't look very educated. I don't know what's going on.

Therefore, the slippery Frajos immediately decided that he should fight the opponent in the aspect he is most familiar with.He's done a lot of shit already, so be careful.

He thought about it and found a reason.

"Women carrying swords are contrary to traditional virtues." He declared: "In the drama "Medea", a crazy and cruel Gentile woman is described. She is different from Greek women, but like men. Acting. And in the end, it was her own heir that she killed with the sword."

"People at that time already had a full understanding of this kind of women and the ending they would lead to. These experiences and wisdom are the wealth passed on to us by drama. We..."

"How can you study so much in one drama?" Shi Huizhen didn't quite believe it, so she interrupted him directly.

"Drama and philosophy are mutually influential, and they are both part of Greek culture. If you understand the theory of the sage Aristotle, you will not make such a rude speech." Flajos obviously meant something.

"Isn't that still a summary of experience before 2000?" Shi Huizhen asked.

"It's not a simple collection of experience, but a systematic thinking and reasoning. The core of philosophy lies in rationality, which is different from the superficial thinking you come into contact with every day." Seeing that she was really entangled, Flajos probably already took the bait Yes, he smiled narrowly and said.

"Then Li... Lixue, isn't it what Yasheng said a long time ago? Am I right?" Shi Huizhen pointed out: "I don't think it will help you win anyone now. This is probably an outdated old man." something!"

"..."
