Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

"Sage's words, don't be sloppy." Li Xin thought for a while and gave a calm answer.

Chen Xinheng laughed when he heard the words. He looked at Li Xin and asked, "Brother-in-law, don't you feel bad about saying this?"

"What?" Although Li Xin was puzzled, his momentum was slightly weaker.

Chen Xinheng shook his head and said: "Think about the things you have done recently. Which ones were taught by the saints? Which ones were found in the Four Books and Five Classics? Feng Ya Song, the Analects of the University and Mencius, I don’t know if you can recite them. Which paragraph? You are so embarrassed to say, "The words of a saint must not be taken lightly"? I think you are the one who is the lightest."

Li Xin didn't expect Chen Xinheng to speak so directly, so he had to smile. No way, Chen Xinheng is right. He really does not know how to recite much, and if he forcibly recites his words, he can’t exceed the level of "three-year-olds must have my teacher", "if you have friends from afar, you can say no to three-year-olds." For catchy sentences, it is better to just shut up.

"Brother-in-law," Chen Xinheng said with a long sigh, "I started reading when I was three years old. I have read everything I have at home. Everyone says that the words of a saint are the world's most reasonable, but I tend to read more and more. Confused. I often ask myself, do I really understand the truth? My answer is, no."

Li Xin's expression gradually became serious. He gradually realized that the young man in front of him was not joking with him, but he really had unresolved doubts about life stuck in his heart and couldn't be relieved.

"Of course there is nothing wrong with the words of a saint. Everyone talks about benevolence, everyone talks about filial piety... Of course this is good. But what about people?" Chen Xinheng was silent for a while, "The world is big, but people are not. There are also flowers, birds, fish, insects, and birds walking... If there are so many truths between people, how much truth should there be among them? Does the saint know these principles? If you know, why Don't mention it? Why don't you tell everyone?"

Although the atmosphere at the moment was very heavy, Li Xin wanted to laugh for no reason.

This is not to laugh, but a smile of joy.

Yes, I am not a Chinese person inferior to others, so how can I not give birth to science? Looking at the confusion in Chen Xinheng's mind, isn't this just the budding of science?

Science begins with curiosity, with doubts and explorations of the complex world. The problem with Confucianism is that it stifles such suspicion and exploratory spirit prematurely. It tells people that there are so many truths in the world, and as long as you study them thoroughly, you will know everything. As a result, countless scholars plunged into the vast Confucian classics like a madman, trying to explore this shortcut to understand the world.

Unfortunately, there is no such shortcut in the world. This is a doomed attempt.

Chen Xinheng is smart and sober. Therefore, he did not compromise with reality, but continued to work hard to pursue what might seem to others to be illusory. This purposeless and determined pursuit is silently proving his courage.

Idealists are like this, always possessing extraordinary courage.

Although Li Xin is not a complete idealist, he has a strong appreciation and sympathy for this group of people.

Chen Xinheng in front of him even reminded him of one person-Wang Yangming. This saint, who was so unrecognizable by the various chicken soup articles and successful articles of later generations, also started by questioning Confucius and Mencius, and finally developed a new mind-learning.

That being said... Isn't his second uncle actually a sage?

"Brother-in-law, I always see what you do." Chen Xinheng said seriously, "From the first day I saw your carriage with my own eyes, I knew you were a different person from everyone else. The horseshoes you took out later confirmed my judgment. You have a different way of thinking than everyone else, and you have knowledge beyond my imagination."

Li Xin neither denied nor admitted.

In fact, he didn't know how to react-deny it, it was a bit false, it seemed very hypocritical, after all, Chen Xinheng had his heart out; admit it, it seemed a little bloated, as if it was amazing, it was unnecessary. Let's forget it by default.

"I sincerely ask you, please tell me what this kind of knowledge is like?" Chen Xinheng looked at Li Xin with blazing eyes.

Li Xin had the intention of spreading science in Datang, not to mention that there was such a pious seeker sitting in front of him. Looking at Chen Xinheng's face that seemed to be deadly to Wen Daoxi, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and said: "You are right. There is indeed a kind of knowledge that explains everything in this world, and its name is science."

"Ke...study?" Chen Xinheng repeated slowly, seeming to want to taste the meaning of these two words.

Li Xin immediately shook his head and said: "No. Science is not so much a kind of learning, it is better to say that it is a method. As long as you master it, you can continue to discover the truth in the world."
