Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 669 Huang Zongxi: Great Ming Su Wu?ashamed

The Daming Confucian Academy was arranged in the outer city of Nanjing, in a former noble garden. Not only is the site spacious, but the environment is also very quiet and elegant, which is in line with the wishes of the Confucianists.

In addition, Aimee Zhu is now "changing her mind" and attaches great importance to Confucianism, which makes the summoned Confucians praise her for her sageness.

Of course, as an institution under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, one of the "universities", even if it is still under construction, not everyone can enter.

When Huang Zongxi came to the gate with the plaque of "Da Ming Confucian Academy" hanging, he was stopped by a group of Nanjing garrison soldiers for questioning.

"Who is coming?"

Huang Zongxi clasped his hands and said, "I'm here, Huang Zongxi, I'm here to see Mr. Shi Shan, please let me know."

Shi Chang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately asked: "But the Yellow Messenger who was trapped in Tianshan Mountain for half a year to herd sheep because of his envoy to Oara?"

Huang Zongxi knew that he was famous now, but he didn't expect that even the soldiers of the garrison knew about him.

After being slightly stunned, he hurriedly said humbly: "It's not half a year, but it's just over four months."

"Confucius said benevolence, Mencius said righteousness. Our Confucianism has always been based on benevolence and righteousness. Even if we discard the chaff and preserve the essence, the core of benevolence and righteousness is unchangeable. If this changes, it will no longer be Confucianism."

"···"

The chief of the garrison trotted in, and came back about half a quarter of an hour later, and said with a smile, "Dean Liu is listening to people discussing knowledge at the Zhizhi Pavilion. Envoy Huang, please follow me."

Huang Zongxi immediately greeted him with the courtesy of a junior, "Huang Zongxi has met seniors."

Knowing that the person in front of him was Huang Zongxi, Cheng Shangli couldn't help but said: "A few days ago I've been hearing the name of Your Excellency 'Da Ming Su Wu', and I've admired it for a long time. I didn't expect to see the real person today. It's very fortunate."

Huang Zongxi couldn't help smiling wryly, feeling the troubles of becoming a celebrity - most importantly, he really felt that he was too far away from Su Wu.

After finishing speaking, he didn't mean to continue to be polite with Cheng Shangli, but continued: "I'm here to see Mr. Shi Shan today, so I won't disturb the discussion between the two of you."

After finishing speaking, he signaled Shi Chang, who had been listening for a while, to continue leading the way.

Because Liu Zongzhou had received a long notice, he noticed it as soon as Huang Zongxi came over.

"Why doesn't it matter? Now there are military and political officers in the new army, most of whom are Confucian scholars, who specialize in teaching soldiers to read and write, so that soldiers will know loyalty and serve the country loyally.

He immediately cupped his hands and said: "I said, why does the voice sound so familiar, it turns out that Brother Ning Ren is here."

Along the way, he heard more related discussions, but Huang Zongxi did not stop until he met Liu Zongzhou in front of Zhizhi Pavilion.

If we don't show off our strength and let the barbarians know the strength of our Daming army, I'm afraid we will only teach a white-eyed wolf in the end. "

"I also agree with this point, but the problem is that since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Confucian benevolence and righteousness have become very complicated and no longer so pure.

Huang Zongxi followed him into the Confucian Academy, and found that there were Confucian scholars gathered in pavilions and pavilions, in twos and threes, most of them were discussing something, and some were even arguing quite fiercely.

Just like the case of the soldiers of the Gansu Garrison guarding the pier, if the soldiers had no loyalty, could the sacrifice of more than 100 people make Wala tremble?
In addition, if we are doing enlightenment overseas, we can ask the army to cooperate. How can we say that there is nothing else to do? "

"So what if it's difficult? If it's not difficult, how could His Majesty issue an imperial decree to summon all Confucian scholars from all over the world to form a 'Confucian Academy' to be responsible for research?"

Gu Yanwu was one of the friends who went to visit Huang Zongxi yesterday, and he was not surprised to see Huang Zongxi here. He smiled and said, "I heard that the Confucian Academy now allows us in-service officials to come here to give suggestions and participate in discussions. So come and see."

This was a big problem, Huang Zongxi didn't dare to touch it now, so he sat obediently and listened.

Suddenly, it was discovered that the person who said that Confucianism needs the cooperation of the army to educate overseas is Gu Yanwu.

"Looking at what your Excellency said, does the Ming Dynasty have a strong military power, does it have anything to do with my Confucianism? Apart from using benevolence and righteousness to educate the barbarians, is there anything else we can do?"

Cheng Shangli was obviously older, so Huang Zongxi cupped his hands and said, "Brother Cheng, don't say that, Huang has only been in Tianshan for a few months, how can he compare with Su Wu who has been herding sheep in Beihai for 19 years?"

At this time, Liu Zongzhou couldn't help but patted his forehead, and said: "Looking at my current memory, I forgot to introduce you to the person next to me. Sun Qifeng and Sun Qitai are masters of Confucianism in Beizhili."

Huang Zongxi discovered that this place was actually discussing how to discard the chaff and preserve the essence of Confucianism.

So Huang Zongxi bowed to Liu Zongzhou after a dozen or so steps, then sat down on an empty chair at the edge of the pavilion, thanked Shi Chang softly, and then paid attention to what the people in the pavilion were saying——

After these people finished speaking, they politely dispersed and Huang Zongxi came into the hall and saluted Liu Zongzhou again.

It is very difficult to remove the dross while retaining the core of benevolence and righteousness. "

"If you want to educate the overseas barbarians, you should open the way with benevolence and righteousness. Just like Jizi in the past when he entered North Korea, he educated the people with etiquette and taught farming and weaving. Only then did the natives of North Korea become civilized and admire my Confucianism. Now it is the number one in my Ming Dynasty vassal state."

Liu Zongzhou nodded slightly, and said, "That's right, although you've lost weight, your spirit is better than before. From this point of view, you should have gained a lot from being trapped at the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain during your mission."

This pavilion is quite big, besides Liu Zongzhou, there is also an old man with gray hair, and several young and middle-aged people who are debating.

After speaking, introduce Huang Zongxi to the person who just argued with him.

"It is good to open the way with benevolence and righteousness, but one should not blindly practice benevolence and righteousness. It should be noted that barbarians are afraid of power and do not cherish virtue.

Huang Zongxi knew that what Liu Zongzhou was talking about was thinking and cognition, so he nodded and said, "It's really rewarding a lot."

When Huang Zongxi heard this, he couldn't help but stop, and looked towards the nearby pavilion where the argument came from.

"It doesn't matter, your Excellency will go."

Liu Zongzhou did not interrupt the debate of several people in the pavilion, but signaled Huang Zongxi to come over.

"That's because of our Daming." Shi Chang was obviously deeply influenced by the new ideas brought by the Daming News, and he said with emotion, "Wait a minute, envoy Huang, I'll go to Dean Liu right away." ——This is the academy’s rules, please forgive me.”

Sun Qifeng laughed and said: "There is no need to be so polite, I am very happy to see you, Su Wu of Ming Dynasty, today."

This man is called Cheng Shangli, and he is a well-known Confucian scholar.

He took three soldiers of the imperial guards and grazed sheep in a pasture at the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain for more than four months, but he couldn't hold on.

If he was allowed to become a slave of the Huns like Su Wu and herd sheep in Beihai, he felt that he might not be able to last for three years.

Liu Zongzhou next to him also said at this time: "Don't flatter him, he is still far behind Su Wu."
