Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 114 A verbal battle with the Confucians!

"Ha! Carry on the past and start the future?"

Su Xian's answer did not make Li Xiyan feel that he was answering seriously, but rather that he was quibbling!
His eyes were sharp, and there seemed to be anger in them.

"You don't read "Spring and Autumn", and you don't understand "Book of Rites". You haven't even read a serious book. You Huangkou boy, you really don't know how high the sky is!"

At this moment, not only Li Xiyan, but also the gentlemen of the main hall, including Fang Xiaoru and Zhao Jing, all felt weird after Su Xian said those words.

This kid has a loud voice. Although a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, it doesn’t mean he is so self-righteous with a big head on his shoulders!

Li Xiyan has a strong personality and dares to hit the prince hard. He is tall, has a strong stubble, and his eyes are as wide as bells. It seems that he really wants to completely wake up this yellow-mouthed kid.

"Su Xian, you are still young. Even at your age, I really thought that if there is a will, things will come true! I thought that I could change many things by raising my hand, and that when I grew up, I could even change the world. .”

At this time, even Fang Xiaoru also spoke.

Compared to Li Xiyan, his attitude tends to be more relaxed, but his purpose is exactly the same.

"But it looks like..." Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly smiled, "I'm afraid he was stillborn."

Su Xian also shouted softly: "This is the Ming Dynasty, not the Song Dynasty."

"What the people of the world need is a peaceful and stable world! This can only be achieved by enlightening all sentient beings with the scriptures and meanings!"

"When you told us this before, I told you what I told you. Do you still remember it? It just so happens that we are still in the main hall now. Although today is not a sutra feast. But regarding the selection of officials in the country, once it is determined, it will be the future of the Ming Dynasty. , we must not be cautious!"

Fang Xiaoru spoke sincerely and also reminded Su Xian, "The world is very big, and the torrent can envelop individuals. The world is chaotic and the city is full of fireworks. When a person really integrates into the environment, it is difficult to even change himself? Let alone talk about change. others?"

All these movements are enough to prove that what the other party said is really possible to change His Majesty's wishes.

He also knew that facing such a child, his attitude was a little impulsive.

After finishing speaking, Li Xiyan also breathed a sigh of relief.

But, he must!

Li Xiyan looked at Fang Xiaoru, and then stared at Su Xian again.

How could they endure this?
"Grandpa Huang!"

"What's wrong?" Li Xiyan asked immediately.

"You are only seven years old this year. Let's just say you are a childish person. If you really have a big wish. When will you be crowned? When will you really understand... Why have the words I said before been passed down for thousands of years? , other tribes perished one after another, but I, Yan Huang, will live forever?"

"How could it be that she was stillborn?" Su Xian looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and then at all the gentlemen from the main hall.

Su Xian didn't want to make the other party arouse any more momentum and make another long speech, so he said directly: "I have said that we are building on the past and forging ahead, so that is not deviant!"

"But I want to tell you."

Fang Xiaoru stared at Su Xian and said firmly: "It's impossible!"

"Especially for you, you have done a lot at this age, so you think that what you think is the most correct thing in the world. You think that you can change the world if you are fully committed."

But Su Xian is different. In the past year, the other party has allowed His Majesty to change the empty seal case, treasure banknotes, and even use the treasure banknotes to seize the military power of the hero and allow the vassal king to smoothly assume the vassal.

After coming to the main hall angrily just now and saying so much for this child, Li Xiyan herself was a little tired.

If it were other children, Li Xiyan would definitely ignore them.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang also walked into the house with Queen Ma and Zhu Biao.

Seeing that the other party seemed to be competing for words again.

Su Xian immediately said: "Inherit the sage's unique knowledge and create peace for all generations! This is the ultimate wish of Confucian students!"

Of course, when this idea appeared, they themselves were a little surprised.

At this moment, Zhu Xiongying's voice suddenly broke the awkward situation around Su Xian, and a group of children quickly looked towards the door.

He looked at Su Xian without saying much.

"As I said that day, you first persuade these gentlemen of yours."

Several gentlemen immediately became furious again, "Are you saying that we are guarding a pile of rotten things? We are conservative in our ideas and do not seek improvement? Arrogant!"

"It's the big words you just said!"

At the same time, they were horrified! Look, the Holy One is still here, proving that he pays special attention to this matter.

As soon as these words came out.

Naturally, His Majesty cannot agree!
But what if?
Especially at the moment, they are still worried about the imperial examination and are thinking about competing with Hu Xiang's official selection. In the blink of an eye, there was a fire in the rear.

"And what you just said is not just about changing others. As mentioned above, trying to change the imperial examination that is recognized by everyone in the world and even history books is going against the general trend and trying to change the entire world!"

"If the imperial examination was really useful in selecting officials, why did the two Song Dynasties repeatedly profess to foreign tribes? Isn't there pride in the classics? Why was Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty able to treat the Jin Kingdom as his son and nephew?"

Su Xian ignored the other party and continued his own words: "Sir, the purpose of leaving behind knowledge is to inherit it and then open up the future, not to stick to it and cling to the incomplete!"

"You don't need to be polite."

"Why are you telling him this? Does he understand?"

"The gentlemen just said so much, but in fact, there is a fundamental point, and it has always been wrong."

"Then you will naturally understand, what kind of craftsmanship are there? All the weird and obscene skills are of the lowest quality!"

Li Xiyan and Fang Xiaoru also came to their senses and quickly turned around to greet them.

"What the two gentlemen just said is that what the people of the world need is a peaceful and stable world! But the imperial examination based on the scriptures of the sages cannot give the Ming Dynasty a peaceful and stable world!"

"Shut up, isn't this a generalization?" At this moment, even Fang Xiaoru became furious.

"Why can't we generalize? Aren't those scholars who taught Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, the prime ministers and assistants in the imperial court of the Song Dynasty, Qin Hui who framed Yue Commander-in-Chief, and the literati who bowed their heads and proclaimed their ministers, not selected by the imperial examination?"

"Could it be that before the imperial examination was held and before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty only respected Confucianism, there were no people of noble character? Were there no people of unparalleled loyalty?"

Su Xian also responded tit-for-tat:

"Sir, the world is constantly changing, and Confucianism is also changing. Hasn't the Confucian classics today never changed?"

"When Confucius traveled around the world, his core idea was benevolence, with the purpose of restoring the etiquette system of the Zhou Dynasty. Mencius also proposed that the people should be valued over the king, and one should sacrifice one's life for righteousness. Dong Zhongshu proposed for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty not only the divine right of kings and the induction of heaven and man, but also A great revenge for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Zhang Mu! In the former Song Dynasty, it was Neo-Confucianism again, preserving natural principles and destroying human desires..."

Su Xian said this very quickly. In fact, he didn't need to explain himself.

The other party knew exactly what they were going to say.

Very simple...

Looking at these changes in thinking, in fact, one of the most basic "basic points" is centered around "monarchy"!
Emperors need their ideas to rule the people and manage the world.

And they need the rights of the emperor to promote their knowledge and promote their ideas.

Some things don't need to be said clearly, but even so, when Su Xian finished speaking.

Fang Xiaoru, Li Xiyan and others, who had just spoken righteously, could not help but shrink their pupils.

Because the emperor of Ming Dynasty is here!

Su Xian's words were almost clear, but at this moment, they no longer had any worries.

The battle of knowledge is the battle of orthodoxy, and it has always been a matter of life and death.

And Su Xian's ability to say this also proves that he also understands the most important point...

What does Ming Dynasty need most today!
"Since you know it, you should know what is Ming's top priority?"

At this moment, even Song Lian slowly spoke, his brows furrowed.

In his current perception, Su Xian is not an innocent student of his age. It seems that he really wants to shake or even change something.

"No hurry, no hurry!"

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted, "The reason is not clear. We have already talked about it here. Let's just regard it as a dispute between students and teachers."

"It just so happens that I'll let you go along with the chaotic thoughts during this period."

"The selection of officials in this country cannot be decided in a short while. If the results can be seen on the day, I guess even our hero will have grown up." "Su Xian has grown up too."

Although he was trying to smooth things over, looking at his meaning, he was clearly adding fuel to the fire!
And you must know that this is what Li Xiyan and the others value!

Age is always the biggest reliance. Even if the decision is made now, when it comes time to see the real deal, it will be at least one or even two generations later.

According to the speed at which a person is raised from childhood, from a six-year-old boy to a crown prince!

It will take fifteen years to have emerging forces, and thirty years to be considered basically settled.

But by this time, they present were already very old, but these children were still in their prime.

Just beating the old man is enough to kill them.

So no matter what, we must convince His Majesty within these few years!

"Although I have said it before, I will say it again today in front of the Holy One..."

"When the world was first settled, the north and the south were separated for who knows how many years? There is an urgent need to use the ideas of the sages to bring these people together and let them all know that before the separation in this troubled time, we were one family!"

"Let the people of the world know that we have the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in common, and we have the same saints that we all respect!"

"Confucianism, loyalty to the emperor, patriotism, filial piety and righteousness to the family! It starts from the foundation of everyone in the world, self-cultivation and family harmony! As long as everyone can do it for the family, it is for the country! I am Ming Dynasty, and the world will be at peace. "

After Li Xiyan finished speaking, she looked directly at Su Xian.

"Listening to what you just said and judging from what you just did, you don't know anything about it. Then gentlemen, I would like to ask you, do you agree with this?"

At this time.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma and Zhu Biao also looked at Su Xian.

Still using him to answer?

After all, they knew that Su Xian had said similar words in front of them.

And at the same time.

The procession of Chang Mao, Xu Huizu, Li Jinglong, and several princes at the door was also noisy, but it was the two kings of Qin and Jin who also came here and hurried over to watch the excitement...

In their eyes, Mr. Li Xiyan, who had educated them obediently, actually started to compete with that little naughty boy.

This is the only one that has existed for thousands of years, and this excitement is a must-see!
And just when they were expecting Su Xian's answer.

"Approved!"

A calm voice sounded, and Su Xian had already answered.

At this moment, Li Xiyan and Fang Xiaoru looked at each other. Originally, they thought that this kid would be more stubborn, but this sudden admission was a bit unexpected.

But Fang Xiaoru moved quickly.

"Since you agree, what else can you say?"

He looked directly at His Majesty, "Your Majesty, this matter is over. This son has a stubborn temperament and can't figure out certain things, but he insists on confronting our sir, which makes Your Majesty laugh..."

what?
Seeing this scene, not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, even the two kings of Qin and Jin who came over were also shocked.

Is this the end? They just arrived and it ended like this?

"Although I agree, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Suddenly, as soon as these words came out, several people looked around quickly.

King Qin and King Jin were immediately relieved.

Zhu Yuanzhang and others were puzzled.

Not finished?

"Today's Ming Dynasty not only needs the ideas of saints, but also needs skills that saints do not have or even don't know."

"Is there anything about the saint?" Fang Xiaoru asked angrily. He had calmed down the atmosphere just now, but Su Xian's insistence again and again made him yell again: "A child cannot be taught!"
Su Xian looked directly at the other party.

"The Ming Dynasty needs to make the same acre of land produce more food? Does the saint have a way?"

As soon as this question came out, Fang Xiaoru was immediately stunned.

Li Xiyan still wanted to say...but Su Xian no longer gave them a chance.

"With the founding of the Ming Dynasty, all kinds of wastes were prospered, and the Northern Yuan Dynasty was still watching."

"The grassland is vast. If the Ming army penetrates deep into it, they will be trapped in the grassland without knowing the north or the south. If they are not careful, they will be short of food and grass. If they are defeated, they will definitely suffer heavy losses."

"The Ming Dynasty needs a sharp weapon that can run rampant on the grassland. Does the saint have it?"

"The Ming Dynasty needs a supply of food and grass that can travel thousands of miles a day, and even travel across the sea and into the sky. Does the saint have it?"

"The Ming Dynasty needs to chase the enemy thousands of miles away, even thousands of miles away, and take the enemy general's head, which is like a siege weapon in the bag. Is there a saint?"

"The people of the Ming Dynasty need enough food to eat every day of the year, every month, and no longer have to worry about the possibility of freezing to death in winter..."

"Are there any of these saints who can only make people loyal, righteous, benevolent and filial?"

"The shame of Jingkang, the Jin people went south and plundered food and grass, so that the people starved to death everywhere and exchanged their children for food! Such tragic scenes even appeared throughout the entire history of the Yan and Huang Dynasties!"

"A saint will only let us know loyalty!"

"But I never said, how to prevent this?"

"Can a saint have even a hint of saint halo at this time?"

"You..." At this moment!
Li Xiyan was completely furious, and Fang Xiaoru was also stunned.

Even Song Lian's beard trembled with anger.

The group of princes and noble heirs were even more excited.

The two princes, King Qin and King Jin, who were about to join the vassal, were very excited now when they thought about the anger they had suffered at the hands of these gentlemen in the past.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but stand up in shock.

Su Xian's words can be described in four words - treason!
"Treason!" Fang Xiaoru shouted angrily:
On the contrary, Li Xiyan fell silent after being furious.

"I'm telling the truth!"

"That's the method of the saints. They harmed themselves!" Fang Xiaoru said angrily: "The saints know everything and hear everything. How can we blame the sages and ethics for these disasters caused by ourselves?"

Su Xian just looked at him and said in a cold voice, "Sage really knows everything?"

Fang Xiaoru shouted angrily: "This is natural."

"Okay!" Su Xian said calmly. Suddenly, he luckily looked out the window.

Ask a question simply and directly.

"In "Liezi·Tangwen", there is an article called "Two children debate the sun".

"Mr. Fang, please answer me..."

"It's cool in the morning and hot at noon."

"Is the sun closer in the morning? Or is it closer at noon?"

Fang Xiaoru was stunned on the spot...

But Su Xian's voice sounded again, this time looking at Li Xiyan, Song Lian, Zhao Jing and many other great scholars!

"If you look at it in the morning, the sun is as big as a car hood; if you look at it at noon, it will be as small as a disk."

"Dare I ask you guys, it's still the same question..."
