If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

"Being stingy with a little money? What does it mean to stop at perfection? In your opinion, it means living in a good place?"

Lin Ke shook his head again when he heard this, feeling a little funny.

Countless people in later generations have annotated, explained, and understood the concept of stopping at the Supreme Good, but the most superficial understanding here is to live in the place of the Supreme Good.

Anyone with a deeper understanding will know that this is an expression of striving to cultivate oneself to achieve the ultimate goodness, and to always maintain the ultimate goodness.

"Ah? Mr. Lin, you..." Wu Chujian was shocked when he heard this. He knelt on the ground and hesitated, speechless.

"The Great Learning", one of the Four Books and Five Classics, Lin Ke, who was only at the second level of cultivation, dared to explain his understanding in this way?

That would involve a battle for the holy way!

Generally speaking, only when one has reached the realm of Confucianism can he publicize his understanding of the article.

At the same time, their literary construction will also contain some of their own concepts.

For example, some people think that nature is inherently good, while others think that nature is inherently evil. This is the dispute between the holy ways.

In the eyes of the contenders, if you are right, I am wrong. If I am right, you must be wrong.

This kind of fight is extremely dangerous, and the loser may have the scholar's heart broken and die on the spot.

In Wu Chujian's view, Lin Ke is only in the second realm now.

If the discussion involves the struggle for the holy way, some ruthless people may directly remove it in advance to prevent another competitor in the future battle for the holy way.

For example, those who believe that the ultimate good is to live in a better place, if the correct answer to this sentence is to live in a bad place, they will probably be heartbroken and die on the spot.

The so-called Taoist heart is broken, the body dies, the Tao disappears, the Buddha's heart is broken and becomes a demon, etc., they all have the same meaning.

"What's wrong with me?"

Lin Ke shook his head, looking at the somewhat embarrassed Xi He, he also had concerns in his heart.

For these students from poor families to be able to compete with those from well-off families and to hold official positions, to a certain extent, it is not just talent, but also luck.

However, how many people in the world are currently struggling to make ends meet while studying hard and expecting to achieve success?

The old rites divided people into three, six or nine categories. Now that the new rites are about to come out, should we get rid of some inherent concepts?

Thinking of this, Lin Ke didn't bother to tell Wu Chujianduo: "You can continue to do evil, but after today, you can't just kneel down and get rid of it."

When Wu Chujian heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but his body almost collapsed to the ground. The two people behind him quickly kowtowed in thanks.

Lin Ke ignored them and turned to Xi He: "Go get paper and pen."

He looked around and found that it was about eight o'clock in his previous life.

The capital city outside is still noisy, but this small alley is extremely quiet.

Imperial Capital is truly a city that never sleeps.

But that is based on having money.

For the people who live here, having bright light means lighting lamps. Instead of wasting money lighting lamps, it is better to go to bed early.

Of course, sleeping is just one situation.

There are also many people who will open the door and use the light outside. Those who have books will read, and those who have no books will chat and chat.

But now, there is not a single soul.

Perhaps they heard the noise outside, and every household stayed behind closed doors to avoid seeing things they shouldn’t see or hearing things they shouldn’t hear.

This is caution and avoidance.

This made Lin Ke sigh.

This kind of caution and avoidance, this way of survival, is also a kind of sensitive fear.

In a previous life, if there was a fight at the door, a group of people would probably gather around to eat melon, take photos, and make videos.

Because the previous life was a harmonious society ruled by law, the occasional appearance of one or two scum like Tangshan among the billions would be regarded as a major event that shocked the whole country.

But here, it is estimated that people on a street are being processed. As long as their hands and eyes are clear and the processing is clean, no one can detect it.

Of course, this is only for the people on this street. If you put it outside, at the door of the ministers and ministers, people will probably come out to take care of it.

Angry!

What kind of place you live in, what kind of people you associate with, and what kind of environment you grow up and work in are all important.

But... Is it really that important?

The most important Qi is related to the education people receive and their own choices.

What people believe is very important.

Even in the darkness, I still believe that there is light in the world.

Being in the light, you can only see the darkness of the world.

The environment cannot trap the former, and the latter is not bad because of the environment.

Lin Ke felt something, and Xi He just happened to bring a pen and paper, and brought the table over.

"Xi He, I'll write it and you can recite it." Lin Ke gestured to Xi He: "Let your neighbors listen to it."

Xi He was a little confused, but still obeyed.

Wu Chujian and the other three people who were kneeling on the ground had different ideas when they saw this.

The latter two only felt strange, while Wu Chujian felt bitter in his heart.

He just begged Lin Ke not to mention his name on it, otherwise he would be infamy for eternity!

As a seal pen, he records all kinds of information all day long, so he knows the power of words best.

If Lin Ke writes a "Preface to the Mengxue Department of the Ministry of Gifts" like he did before, then his life will be over. Even if he becomes a great scholar in the future, he will not be enshrined by the court after his death.

Fortunately, what Lin Ke wrote seems to have nothing to do with him.

"The inscription of a humble room."

Xi He's voice was clear, but there was a trace of unnoticeable nervousness.

Humble room.

What is a shabby room?

Xi He felt that he lived in a shabby room.

On this street, many people are listening behind doors.

These houses have no windows because windows sometimes provide the best entry points for burglars.

Just low walls and flimsy wooden doors.

They listened carefully to what was going on outside, fearing that trouble might come to the door.

Some are waiters in inns, some are farmers in the fields, and some are shop workers who specialize in washing clothes...

They are each in their own homes, listening to the words outside in various ways.

There are even children around six or seven years old and teenagers as young as eleven or twelve years old who are listening.

When they heard the word "shabby room", their moods fluctuated to varying degrees.

A humble room, a humble room.

It seems to be the place where they live!

The first reaction of most people is, will their "humble houses" no longer exist in the capital in the future?

You know, the appearance of these "shabby houses" in the Imperial Capital does, to some extent, affect the appearance of the city.

Some people thought that Xi He's reciting these words now meant that he was reciting the king's law and wanted to drive them away.

Of course, they don't understand the style and meaning of "inscription".

However, at the next moment, a neat contrasting sentence was spoken by Xi He, and the situation within a hundred thousand miles began to change, with the faint sound of dragon roars mixed in.

"The mountains are not high, if there are immortals, they are famous. If the water is not deep, if there are dragons, they are spiritual."

ps: Christmas means the birth of a saint. It can be the birthday of a series of ancestors such as Huangdi and Fuxi, but does the word "saint" have anything to do with Jesus? I suggest changing the name to Christmas. The birth of Jesus is none of my business. (End of chapter)
