Chapter 14 New Explanation of the Analects of Confucius

Chapter 14 New Explanation of the Analects of Confucius
Spreading out the bamboo slips, Ying Chengxun lowered his head, pointed at a sentence on it, and said loudly: "When a person is about to die, his words are good. How do you explain it?"

Chunyuyue's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that perhaps Ying Chengxun had other intentions.

I might be executed soon, and Ying Chengxun asked Fu Sheng to translate this sentence, is it implying that I have something to say together quickly?
The officials also took a deep look at Ying Chengxuan.

He was actually deceived!This guy also knows the secret song?What did he want Chunyu Yue to say before he died?

Before Chunyu Yue and the officials figured it out.

Over there, Fu Sheng, who only studies and ignores foreign affairs, has already given his answer.

"When a person is about to die, the words he speaks must be kind."

"Look, this is wrong, isn't it? It doesn't make sense."

"Why doesn't it work?"

Fu Sheng frowned, he suspected that Ying Chengxue was making trouble for no reason, but since it involved Confucianism, he had to argue with reason.

"Mencius said that human nature is originally good. When a person is about to die, he is at the boundary between life and death, just like when he first came to this world, so his disposition will eventually become kind."

"That's why, you Confucian scholars have lost your minds when you read books. Sir Ting Wei, do you agree with Dr. Fu's words?"

Ying Chengxi called the roll call, and Li Si observed Ying Zheng's reaction and found that Ying Zheng did not respond.

Without much hesitation, he immediately said, "I don't agree."

If discussing other ideas of Confucianism, Li Si may resonate with Fu Sheng.But when it comes to human nature, Li Si will definitely not agree with Mencius' theory that nature is good!
"Human nature is evil, and those who are good are hypocritical. People are born with evil nature, and those good performances are all disguised. Confucius said that self-restraint and rituals mean restraining one's desires, and that words and deeds are in line with etiquette. If human nature If you are kind, then what is there to restrain? You just need to indulge.”

Li Si's teacher is Xun Qing.

Xun Qing is a Confucian student who is not recognized by mainstream Confucian students.

The root of this disapproval is that Xun Qing put forward the theory of evil nature, which is diametrically opposed to the theory of good nature of Confucian sub-sage Mencius. This is an irreconcilable contradiction between the two.

Of course, Xun Qing didn't care about this matter, because he didn't agree with mainstream Confucian scholars.

As a disciple of Xunqing, Li Si has won the true biography of Xunqing. In terms of human nature, he has always upheld the teacher's view that human nature is inherently evil.

The person who answered became Li Si, and Fu Sheng raised his spirits by 12 points.

Chun Yuyue, who debated Li Si's traditional Confucianism just now, was the first to say that you and I have nothing to say.

The first to say such a thing in a debate is tantamount to losing.

You know, Li Si actually belonged to the Legalists!
He argued against Chun Yuyue, who was based on traditional Confucianism, because he was not the best at traditional Confucianism.

Fu Sheng saw it with his eyes and heard it with his ears.

This is a formidable enemy.

Fu Sheng was preparing a verbal rebuttal, Ying Chengxu waved his hand.

"Theoretical matters, you can't finish talking for three days and three nights, there is no need for that."

Ying Chengyu didn't want to start a debate contest, he called Li Si up because he was afraid that Fu Sheng would be speechless to him.

He wanted Li Si to write, that is, he wanted Fu Sheng to think twice before he said anything, so that his goal would be achieved.

Now like this, Fu Sheng is restrained, so he can open his mouth to guide and let things fall into his rhythm.

"I always speak from the facts. Meng Tian, ​​when you attack Chu and fight with Chu soldiers, what will the Chu soldiers say before they die?"

Meng Tian also observed Ying Zheng's reaction, and found that Ying Zheng didn't respond, so he got up helplessly.

He really didn't want to get involved in these things.

"Qin dog."

clap clap ~
Holding the bamboo slip in his left hand, Ying Chengxun tapped his right hand three times, and said with a smile, "Dr. Fu, did you hear that? The word Qin Gou must not be a kind word, right?"

Ying Chengxu refuted Fu Sheng's understanding of the phrase "a man's words are good even when he is about to die" from two aspects of theory and fact.

But based on this alone, it is impossible for Fu Sheng to agree.

Fu Sheng's knowledge is not fake, let him think for a while, he will definitely come up with a way to answer.

But will Ying Chengxi give Fu Sheng this time?
of course not!

I really thought that Li Si was his disciple and could always endorse him and refute Fu Sheng!
The first sentence he discussed with Fu Sheng, why did he choose "When a man is about to die, his words are also good"?
It is to lead to the theory of good nature, so as to attract Li Si, who advocates the theory of evil, to enter the stage.

This involves the most basic idea that Li Si has learned all his life, and Li Si had to endorse him, so that he obtained the precious right to guide.

Next is Meng Tian, ​​who breaks the situation with facts and guides Fu Sheng to continue thinking.

Otherwise, once Fu Sheng opened his mouth, he would not be able to say it with any confidence at all.

From now on, Ying Chengxi will keep Fu Sheng thinking!
"So, Fu Sheng's understanding is wrong. The commentary on this passage in "The Analects of Confucius" is consistent with Fu Sheng's understanding, and it is also wrong. The true meaning of this sentence is: beat people to death, and what you say It sounds good!"

"Oh?"

Longxi Hou Li Xin sneered.

"Then how do you explain the word Qin Gou that Chu Jun scolded before he died?"

Unlike Fu Sheng, Li Xin said what he thought of.

Use the example Ying Chengxu just gave to counter Ying Chengxu.

"Please pay attention to the lecture. What I said is that the beating will kill you, and you will die if you continue beating, not really beating to death!"

Ying Chengxue looked at Li Xin with the eyes of a stupid person, which made Li Xin very uncomfortable.

"You really beat someone to death, and if he doesn't scold you, he will say good things to you. How despicable is such a person!"

Ying Chengxue added an accent to the word "cheesy", and said it while staring at Li Xin's eyes.

This made Li Xin feel an unknown fire in his heart!

This guy is calling me mean!

"you!"

The colleagues around him grabbed Li Xin and prevented Li Xin from continuing.

"It's just a stick! Why do you always mess with him?"

Li Xin was sitting upright with a dark face, no longer speaking.

"Fu Sheng stopped talking. He must be chewing on the lessons I taught. He is really eager to learn!"

Ying Chengxu shook his head.

The officials: I really want to beat this guy up!Have you given Fu Sheng time to talk!How can a man be so shameless!
Ying Zheng: I don't understand. What's the use of this Zhuzi's misinterpretation of "The Analects of Confucius"?

Fu Sheng: Qin attacked Chu, and the people of Chu rose up to fight back, saying the word "Qin Dog" before dying.Although these two words are indecent, from the standpoint of Chu people, they are angry at the invaders, and their original intention is to defend their homeland. This is also a kind word, yes, that's what it is.

Fu Sheng turned the words around in his mind again, and was about to speak, when Ying Chengxu continued: "I am a good person and will continue to teach you, for free."

wow~

The bamboo slips were spread out again.

"The son does not speak strange, force, chaos, god, what does this sentence mean?"

Confucius didn't talk about weirdness, bravery, rebellion, ghosts and gods.

As soon as Ying Chengyu said this, Fu Sheng's heart instantly emerged.

"It means: Confucius didn't speak, and beat people out of their minds with strange force."

Fu Sheng:? ? ?
Li Si:? ? ?
Meng Tian:? ? ?
Li Xin:? ? ?
Ying Zheng:? ? ?
The ministers:? ? ?
What the hell are you talking about?
As for the previous sentence "When a man is about to die, his words are good", Ying Chengxun also made some arguments and arguments, which seemed to be the case.

When it comes to this sentence, it is pure nonsense!

Confucius, a highly respected saint, insisted on making you say that you are a rude and arrogant person who uses violence to control violence. Is your conscience really okay?

Ying Chengyu cares about that?

His reputation is so bad, no matter how bad it is, there is not much room for decline. What can he do with his conscience?
He continued to explain enthusiastically.

"A gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way. This sentence means: I like your money, so it makes sense for me to take it away."

"Since it has come, it will be safe. The meaning of this sentence is: since it has come, let it be buried here!"

"I heard it in the morning, and I can die in the evening. The meaning of this sentence is: If I know the way to your house in the morning, I can beat you to death in the evening!"

The officials: We are really blind to believe that this scorpion has any deep meaning!He is just ignorant and nonsense!
Only Chun Yuyue remained silent, thinking carefully.

This is a cover-up, Mr. Chang'an is covering up his first sentence, so as to avoid suspicion from the ministers and His Majesty, what exactly does he want me to say?

"What nonsense!"

Fu Sheng couldn't listen anymore, this good-tempered Confucian scholar roared, his eyes were as big as copper bells!

"You misunderstand my Confucian "Analects of Confucius" so much, you can know that this is a major event that has been passed down for thousands of years!"

Just above this court hall, under the gaze of the First Emperor.

Fu Sheng, a doctor of Confucianism who is only engaged in learning and not political affairs, rushed to Ying Chengxun in three steps at a time, and snatched the bamboo slip from Ying Chengxun's hand.

"No!"

Chunyu shouted anxiously.

Mr. Chang'an is reminding me, how could there be any annotations on the bamboo slips, this is just Mr. Chang'an's performance on the spot!Don't get me wrong!

Chunyu Yue wanted to stop Fu Sheng, but he was still in deep thought, so his reaction was a bit slow.

Fu Sheng rushed out and then suddenly, Chun Yuyue of course didn't stop him.

When he called out those two words, Fu Sheng snatched the bamboo slip from Ying Chengxun's hand.

Fu Sheng looked intently at the bamboo slips.

I saw that on the right side of the series of sentences, all of them were written with a series of comments in small print.
