  Chapter 65 064 [Bullying you for reading less]

  Zheng Zhongkui was very shocked by the previous theory of status.

  But at this moment, Zheng Zhongkui was almost dying of laughter, and the scene in front of him can only be described in one sentence: It's a joke to slip the world.

  Zhao Han is also taking things out of context!

  But among the more than 200 teachers and students present, including Cai Maode, the deputy envoy of Tixue, none of them realized that Zhao Han was talking nonsense.

  Cai Maode is indeed a famous Confucianist, but he majored in the study of mind, and he is considered qualified after reading "Zhu Zi Yu Lei", so why would he read the full set of "Huian Ji"?

   "Brother Weiran, your disciple is really... hard to describe." Zheng Zhongkui laughed.

  Pang Chunlai asked: "Is he talking nonsense?"

  Zheng Zhongkui shook his head: "It's not all nonsense, it's generally correct. It's just to persuade the widow to remarry. Your students are taking the meaning out of context and bullying those present who haven't read "Huian Ji"."

   "What did Zhu Zi say?" Pang Chunlai was rather curious.

  Zheng Zhongkui smiled and said: "Chen Shizhong's younger sister, her husband died and wanted to remarry. Zhu Zi persuaded her to keep the chastity, but in the end she didn't persuade her."

   "Cough cough cough!"

  Pang Chunlai coughed repeatedly, choking on his own saliva.

Zheng Zhongkui found it even more funny: "You student is very wonderful. He used Zhu Zi's original words and took them out of context. He would persuade him to keep his chastity and change it to persuade him to remarry. But if you read Zhu Zi's writings thoroughly, he took the words out of context, but he didn't Contrary to Zhu Zi's original intention."

   "How do you say it?" Pang Chunlai was stunned.

Zheng Zhongkui explained: "For widows, Zhu Zi's views are nothing more than three: in favor of chastity, sympathy for remarriage, and opposition to martyrdom. Chen Shizhong's sister has a special reason, and her deceased husband is also Zhu Zi's friend. Zhu Zi has always declared that if the husband dies, There are elders and younger ones, and women should observe chastity in order to take care of their parents-in-law and children. This is the reason why Zhu Zi persuaded Chen Shizhong’s sister to observe chastity.”

   "I see," Pang Chunlai suddenly realized, and asked again, "Is he not afraid of being exposed?"

Zheng Zhongkui said with a smile: "You are a smart student. There are a hundred volumes of "Huian Ji". Those who can read this book can understand the true meaning of Zhu Zi and will not expose him on the spot. But want to refute his People, and have no patience to read through this book."

  Pang Chunlai asked: "Is he not afraid that someone will look up Zhu Zi's classics?"

  Zheng Zhongkui asked: "How to check? "Hui'an Ji" has a hundred volumes, with specific articles, and no catalogue. Moreover, Zhu Zi has other works. If I really want to find this article, it will take at least ten days and a half month."

  Pang Chunlai praised: "This son is treacherous... smart, my heart is very comforting."

   Regardless of the teachers and students present, they were all shocked by Zhu Xi's quotations at the moment.

  But after the debate is over, I am afraid that few people are willing to devote themselves to studying Zhu Xi's works. Even if someone reads it, it will definitely not last for a few days.

   Those who can really persevere will surely understand Zhu Xi's true meaning, so how can they expose Zhao Han's tricks?

   If Zhao Han overturns one day, it will be a joy to congratulate, it proves that his reputation has spread far and wide!

  …

  Zhao Han continued to search with the cheat sheet, and soon found new content: "Mr. Chen, let me read another paragraph. This article is from "Zhu Zi Yu Lei". I must have read it."

  Chen Lide did read "Zhu Zi Yu Lei", but it was in his youth, several decades ago.

  Seeing that Zhao Han was about to read Zhu Xi's quotations again, Chen Lide couldn't help but back away, just wanting to escape from this embarrassing scene as soon as possible.

Zhao Han said: "The original text is quite long, so I will give the general idea. There was a woman in Buquan County who wanted to divorce her husband because her husband was unable to support the family. Zhu Zi's student said: "How can the righteousness of a husband and wife be lost because of a poor family?" Abandoning each other? It is impossible for the government to agree.' Mr. Chen, do you know how Zhu Zi replied?"

   "Of course it is..." Chen Lide hesitated, he really didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, this is not the Zhu Xi in his impression.

  Zhao Han said with a smile: "Zhu Zi said, you should not just listen to one side of this matter, but understand the situation of both husband and wife. If it is really the husband's fault that makes it difficult for the wife to live, then you can't stick to the general principles."

Zhao Han stopped suddenly, looked around the teachers and students, and said loudly: "Zhu Zi's words are very clear. Even if you are married to your husband, even if the husband is the guide to your wife, but if the husband has made a serious mistake, the wife can ask for a divorce. The government should also allow them to divorce! Isn’t this the equality of men and women, and the equality of husband and wife?”

  The debate scene was dead silent, and the three views of Neo-Confucianism were refreshed again.

  Pang Chunlai asked in a low voice: "Is this not taken out of context?"

  Zheng Zhongkui shook his head and said, "No, Zhu Zi really said so."

  The scholar Liu Ziren, who was clamoring for rebellion, finally couldn't help asking: "Is what my junior said is absolutely true?"

  Zhao Han pointed in the direction of the library, and said: "Hanzhu Academy has Zhu Zi's complete set of writings, which have been lying in the library for nearly a hundred years. Teachers and students, if you have any questions, you can look them up and read them yourself."

   "Thank you for reminding me." Liu Ziren cupped his fists in thanks.

  Zhu Zhiyu suddenly walked up to Fei Yuanlu, cupped his hands and said, "Master Fei Shan, Zhu Zhiyu, a scholar of Yuyao, is requesting to study at Hanzhu Academy for a year."

   Attracted all the scholars from Yuyao?

  Fei Yuanlu was very happy, and said: "Everyone has the desire to learn, and friends are welcome to stay."

  Zhu Zhiyu lost his father at the age of eight, and his family was in decline. My elder brother was admitted to Wu Jinshi and became rich, but he still couldn't find the opportunity to read the complete set of Zhu Xi's works.

   Scholars who really want to learn, it’s not that they don’t want to read "idle books", but "idle books" are too precious!

  Many times, money can't buy it.

  For example, if Fei Yinghuan wanted to read famous classics, he had to travel to the south of the Yangtze River by himself to find them in the libraries of major families.

Zhao Han picked up the cheat sheet in his hand again and asked, "Mr. Chen, do you still want to argue with me about Zhu Zi? You don't need to talk about the moon. Only then have the moon's waxing and waning."

   "There is no need to argue. Zhu Zi said that the sun shines on the moon, so it must be the sun shining on the moon." Chen Lide left after speaking, turned and left the debate. He didn't have the face to stay to debate anymore, and he didn't even have the face to stay in Hanzhu Mountain, and resigned when he got his salary for this month.

  Zhao Han asked everyone: "Who wants to argue with me about Zhu Zi?"

   No answer.

  Zhao Han held a few sheets of paper in his hand, all of which were Zhu Xi's quotations. And those present here know little about Zhu Xi, so how dare they go up and argue with him!

  Zhao Han asked everyone again: "Who wants to argue with me about the theory of personality? Who still opposes that personalities are born equal, and they are only distinguished by acquired virtues?"

  At least one-third of teachers and students disagree with this argument.

  However, thinking of what happened to Chen Lide, these people dare not stand up, for fear that they will also be humiliated.

  As the president of the debate committee, Cai Maode stood up and said, "Since this is the case, Fei Han should be judged to win today's debate."

  Some students cheered, some students were frustrated, and many people were aggrieved.

  Anyone who opposes the theory of personality will disperse immediately after the debate is over.

  Those who supported the theory of personality surrounded Zhao Han, even including several academy teachers, who wanted to ask some related questions.

Fei Ruyi rushed the fastest, took Zhao Han's hand and said, "Master, would you like to go to Suzhou with me? Qianshan's academics are outdated, so it's not easy to spread your knowledge. If you go to Suzhou, you will be very popular. It must be fashionable for scholars!"

   "Uh, that's unnecessary," Zhao Han withdrew his hand, taking the opportunity to hand over to another person, "Mr. Zhang, you just mentioned..."

  Cai Maode and Fei Yuanlu left the debate side by side.

  Fei Yuanlu smiled and asked: "Inspector, how is today's debate?"

  Cai Maode said: "With a new trend, Hanzhu Academy will surely become famous."

   "It's all thanks to the supervisor." There was something in Fei Yuanlu's words, and he was asking Cai Maode to help spread the word.

  Cai Maode didn't answer directly, but said: "I'm still bothering senior, please invite Fei Han to my room."

  Fei Yuanlu said: "It's my luck to be taught by the supervisor."
