I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 295 Fang Xiaoru’s shock!Scholars went crazy!
After hearing what Taisun said, Fang Xiaoru couldn't help but clenched his fists.

I want to open my mouth to say something.

But in a panic, he didn't know what to say, and he didn't have many words to refute. He could only watch the courtiers in the court turn to His Highness the Grand Sun one by one.

In this Confucian debate, he was easily defeated.

And he still lost to an eight-year-old kid!

It simply made Fang Xiaoru feel ashamed!It was as if all his life's knowledge had been wasted, which made him feel ashamed!

What is he most afraid of?
What Fang Xiaoru fears most is not death, but the erasure of the value of existence!

He is not afraid of death.

But Fang Xiaoru was afraid that his death was unreasonable.

And what Zhu Yunxun is doing now is making Fang Xiaoru's persistence turn into a dream and no longer important!

This is really killing him!
So Fang Xiaoru will be afraid, and extremely afraid!
If the spirit of Neo-Confucianism dies, then his body will also die.

On the contrary, if only his body dies and Neo-Confucianism still exists, then if his spirit is immortal, it will still exist forever.

Sacrifice your life for righteousness, and your reputation will spread far and wide!
But Zhu Yunzhen refused to help him!Not only must he be killed and punished, but Neo-Confucianism must be completely destroyed!

First there was a Confucian debate that left Fang Xiaoru speechless.

Then he published all this in the People's Daily and spread it to let the people in the capital know.

Everything was completely prepared by Zhu Yunxuan in advance!
Zhu Yunxuan came completely prepared!

Only then did Fang Xiaoru realize that his belief that Zhu Yunzhen had no ability to resist was just a fantasy.

Not only did His Highness Taisun have already thought of such a solution.

A series of exquisite theories were derived. Even Fang Xiaoru felt that there was some truth to the views put forward by Xiaoru above the court.

It's just that he would never admit it.

The dispute between Zhu Yunzhen and him was a battle of ideas!It’s a battle of dogmas!
He hated Zhu Yunzhen with all his heart. After all, Zhu Yunzhen not only wanted to ruin his reputation, but also destroyed his lifelong belief!
What a heinous crime!

But Fang Xiaoru could only watch all this happen...

After retreating from the court.

As the new issue of People's Daily was published, Fang Xiaoru immediately bought the People's Daily and went to the streets in hidden corners to observe other people's reactions.

And the more I looked at it, the more frightened I became.

All the people in the capital participated in this criticism of Neo-Confucianism.

After the scholars spread it wildly.

Even the three-year-old child in the capital knew that Fang Xiaoru was defeated by His Highness Taisun in the court!

And the Neo-Confucianism he represented was criticized by countless people, and he lost most of his popularity among the people!
But that's not the scariest thing!

What’s really scary is that Xinxue began to spread crazily among scholars!Neo-Confucianism has gradually declined from orthodoxy, while Xinxue has gradually improved!

Many scholars began to delve into the study of mind.

At the same time, Zhu Yunxian's speech at the Confucian debate in the court was extracted.

Take it as the program of mind-learning and start promoting mind-learning!
All of this was almost difficult for Fang Xiaoru to accept...but he was unable to stop it and could only watch it happen.

Watching the wind change in the capital.

Everyone was talking about Neo-Confucianism, and as a representative of Neo-Confucianism, he was naturally criticized by the people of the capital.

It will never be the same again!

For a moment, Fang Xiaoru was almost in pain...

Royal Palace.

Royal study.

Zhu Yunxi looked happy.Listening to Jiang Wei's report below, he was so happy to know that Fang Xiaoru had been having a hard time these past few days.

But this is not because Zhu Yunzhen has a personal grudge against Fang Xiaoru.

Although Fang Xiaoru was very stubborn, he did not really anger Zhu Yunzhen, because to put it bluntly, this is what Confucian scholars in this era were like.

Not every scholar is a genius.

What Zhu Yunzhen was happy about was that as long as Fang Xiaoru was having a hard time, it meant that Neo-Confucianism was having a hard time.

And Neo-Confucianism is having a hard time, which means that Zhu Yunxuan's goal has been achieved!

Why did he try so hard to suppress Fang Xiaoru?Isn't it just that he wants to put Fang Xiaoru on the altar, so that Fang Xiaoru can represent Neo-Confucianism, and then knock Neo-Confucianism from the clouds with one blow?
Now, Zhu Yunxuan's goal has been achieved.

Controversies about Confucianism in the court are spreading wildly among scholars all over the world.

It won't be long before Neo-Confucianism's status in the minds of many scholars will plummet, and then Neo-Confucianism will fall from the position of official orthodox doctrine.

There is only one imperial edict left.

"But Your Highness, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism has a long history and is widely spread among Confucian scholars."

"In a short while, I'm afraid it won't be able to fundamentally shake the foundation of Neo-Confucianism."

"At the same time, according to the detection of my subordinates, Fang Xiaoru and others seem to be planning a counterattack."

"They are very dissatisfied with the current situation! I am afraid they already hate His Highness to the core!"

"Do you want me to arrest them now?"

Jiang Wei knelt on the ground and said.

His idea is very simple. His Highness Taisun has the upper hand now, so why not go all out and arrest all these Neo-Confucianists!
To avoid any trouble happening again.

After all, judging from the information he found, these Neo-Confucianists do not hate His Highness Taisun in general!
But Zhu Yunxuan waved his hand.

Said: "Jiang Wei, this matter is not as simple as you think."

"It's not the knife that they're most afraid of."

"Instead, they are expecting Gu to catch them so that they can gain sympathy."

"Regain the upper hand among the scholars."

"But it's just not what they want! Let them rot quietly in silence and slowly die in the changes of thoughts!"

"Don't worry, whoever moves first now will be defeated faster!"

The debate between Neo-Confucianism and Psychology is a debate over ideas.

This cannot be solved by simply killing one or two people.

If Zhu Yunxuan really did what Jiang Yu said, Neo-Confucianism might regain the upper hand among scholars. After all, since ancient times, everyone has sympathized with the weaker side.

But now, the psychology proposed by Zhu Yunxuan is the weak side.

Neo-Confucianism seems to be powerful, but it is already riddled with holes.

As long as time passes, Neo-Confucianism will naturally disintegrate.

Countless Confucian scholars will turn to support Xinxue!
So... there is only one thing Zhu Yunzhen has to do, wait!
The less he panics now, the more panic Fang Xiaoru and others will have!

And indeed, in the next few days, Fang Xiaoru and others jumped up and down, trying to reverse the collapse of Neo-Confucianism.

But no matter what they do, they can't stop what people want.

Through this Confucian debate, Neo-Confucianism not only lost its foothold in the court, but also lost the hearts of the people.

Scholars are not stupid either!

They are all Confucians, so why don't they follow the Xinxue, which seems to have great promise, instead of the Neo-Confucianism, which is declining?
It doesn't make sense at all!

Therefore, everything Fang Xiaoru and others did was in vain!
