Although Xu Guangzhi was eager for quick success and narrow-minded, he was extremely skilled in his words and very knowledgeable. At the beginning of the debate, he threw out a lot of arguments, and the legalists were forced to retreat. What Confucianism calls Fagu, imitating the Zhou Dynasty, following the rituals, and following the rituals of the Zhou Dynasty.
There were more than 30 emperors before and after the Zhou Dynasty, which lasted for more than seven hundred years. It is precisely because there were few disputes and wars in that era that Confucian scholars highly praised it, strongly advocating the superiority of the various systems of the Zhou Dynasty, and calling on the superiors to follow the example of benevolence and to give the common people a peaceful and prosperous age, Haiqing Heyan. .
Xu Guangzhi was able to list too many historical evidences, and he was eloquent and eloquent for a while. On the other hand, legal scholars, as long as they talk about governing a country, almost 80% of the cases end in failure. Even the Qin Dynasty, which reformed the country to strengthen the country and eventually unified the Central Plains, was rapidly dying in the tyranny and government, and then the people of the Central Plains fell into the chaos that lasted for hundreds of years. The war has caused them to be displaced and precarious.
Wei Guogang was established less than two years ago, and the cruelty of war is still imprinted in the hearts of the people. When it comes to peace and stability, everyone yearns for it, and when it comes to tyranny, politics and war, everyone hates it. The Confucian thought of benevolence is more easily moved at this time, while the legalism's severe punishment has attracted a lot of boos. The debate off the field was almost one-sided, but in just three quarters of an hour, the challenger raised his white silk and completely conceded defeat, while Xu Guangzhi drew the conclusion with a sonorous and powerful voice, "Therefore, the current state of Wei should be like the Holy One. Yan - Destroy a hundred schools of thought, and respect Confucianism alone!"
There was thunderous applause in the hall, and Mr. Guan and Mr. Guan stepped forward one by one to congratulate Xu Guangzhi. He talked to the two of them neither humble nor arrogant, and then bent down frequently to thank a Jiuli nobleman who sponsored him to hold a debate. People from the Legalist school did not dare to stay any longer, and they all covered their faces and left.
"This is the end?" Qin Lingyun didn't say anything, but his face was extremely ugly. Instead, his personal guard asked in a non-standard Yayan (ancient mandarin).
Guan Suyi looked up, because the other party's beard was too thick to see his expression, but he could detect an unbelievable light in his slightly pale blue pupils, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with the result. It is said that servants follow their masters, and it seems that this person is also a loyal supporter of the Legalist school.
"It's over now." Guan Suyi raised her teacup and sipped, her heart full of worry. In terms of eloquence, Qin Lingyun is probably the only one in Wei who can compete with Xu Guangzhi. From this, it can be imagined that the results of the next nine debates will be the same as today.
After winning all ten battles, it is only sooner or later that he will become famous at home and abroad, and Emperor Shengyuan is eager to seek talents, and he is afraid that he will call Xu Guangzhi into office just like in his previous life. So naturally, Xu's philosophy would prevail, and women began to see no end in life, being despised, controlled, and bound by others.
Logically speaking, as long as she doesn't repeat the mistakes of her previous life, this change will not have much impact on Guan Suyi, but she just can't stand Xu Guangzhi's hypocritical face, and even hates his theory. But she was Guan Qiguang's granddaughter after all, so she couldn't stand up and beat the Confucian school in the face, so she could only watch from the sidelines.
Glancing at Qin Lingyun opposite, she shook her head secretly. Forget it, this person is practising shut-down, so I'm afraid he won't get involved in this debate. In his heart, the Li family is the most important, and the face of the Legalist school is worthless. Besides, she couldn't find any excuse to persuade the other party. Could it be that if she told him that if Xu Guangzhi got ahead, he would indirectly kill your sister-in-law? Wouldn't it be plain to arouse suspicion and bring misfortune to oneself
After thinking and thinking about it, Guan Suyi finally suppressed the hatred in his heart, but the resentment was unbearable, and sneered, "Fagu follows the propriety. If it is true as Xu Guangzhi said, the ancients did not have disputes and wars, and did not harm their compatriots. He is a man of benevolence, so why did the Zhou Dynasty perish? You legalists are useless. Many arguments can be easily overturned, but you can't seize the opportunity at all, and you have become a stepping stone for Xu Guangzhi in vain. Really want to talk about it In the art of governing a country, Confucianism is far from Legalism!"
Qin Lingyun and the tall man looked at her in unison, with a stunned expression on their faces. You know, Guan Suyi is Guan Qiguang's granddaughter, and she should be a fan of Confucianism. At this time, she has bluntly declared her respect for Legalism. Could it be that she is overwhelmed
Guan Suyi put down the teacup, leaned back on the chair, instantly changed from a dignified lady to a lazy idler, and her gentle temperament suddenly became sharp. If there was another person on the opposite side, she would definitely not easily express what she was thinking, but that person was Qin Lingyun, Qin Lingyun who was affectionate and righteous, Qin Lingyun who made a promise, and even Qin Lingyun who practiced his own words. She believed that he would not reveal today's conversation to others.
This change made the two of them even more surprised, and they looked at her up and down, as if they didn't know each other. Especially the tall man who wanted to lift her barrier to see if her expression was the same as he guessed, showing disdain and sneering.
After being reborn, Guan Suyi has long been suffocated, and urgently needs to find an outlet to vent. At present, Qin Lingyun has naturally become her tree hole, and she can't wait to spit it out.
"Abolish hundreds of schools, respect Confucianism alone, scoff..." Seeing that there were only three or two tables left for guests on the second floor, most of the first floor was emptied, grandfather and father also disappeared, and Guan Suyi was like a prisoner who had taken off his shackles, becoming mad. Proud and very aggressive, he said word by word, "With only these eight words, he is not worthy to learn Confucianism, and only these eight words make him unworthy to challenge Legalism as a Confucian scholar."
Qin Lingyun raised his head suddenly, as if touched. The tall man took a seat opposite her, staring at her for the first time with serious, focused eyes.
Getting the audience's attention, Guan Suyi knocked on the table and spoke freely, "The original words today were 'Explore Confucius, suppress a hundred schools of thought', but when he arrived at Xu Guangzhi's place, it became 'Abolish a hundred schools of thought, and respect Confucianism only'. Repression and waste, the difference in one word is the difference between heaven and earth. What is the core idea of Confucianism, do you know?"
The object of her questioning was Qin Lingyun. As for the tall man who was staring at her, he was naturally ignored. A Jiuli tribesman who even said Yayan was not very smooth, she did not expect the other party to understand her words, so this person is also a tree hole, not afraid of leaking secrets in the future.
Qin Lingyun took out a Buddha bead from his purse, threw it into the teacup, and spit out two words, "Moderation."
"Of course. Unbiased, neutral and peaceful, this is the mean of the mean. The mean of the mean can involve all aspects of life, and it is the way of life that Confucius most respects. If it is too much, it violates the principle of the mean of the mean. Change 'inhibit' to 'abolish' , Xu Guangzhi's intention to exterminate all the schools of thought is very clear, and he also exposes his academic approach. It is most appropriate to describe him with the words of Confucius."
Having said that, she flicked the rim of the cup with her light-white fingertips, and made a crisp "ding" sound, signaling Minglan to pour tea for herself to moisten her throat.
The tall man couldn't stand her panting, he hurriedly raised the teapot to fill her up, and then looked over eagerly. Qin Lingyun didn't show it on his face, but glanced over and over again from the corner of his eyes, thinking that this person had disliked Guan Suyi's sour speech before, but now he is diligent and prepared, and he is not afraid of being slapped in the face.
The tall man pushed the teacup forward, urging him with awkward and elegant words, "Hurry up, what are you talking about?"
Guan Suyi took a small sip and continued, "If you attack heresy, you will be harmed." Afraid that the Jiuli man would not understand, she explained again, "In the vernacular—if you study heresy, the harm will be great. What is heresy? To use Xu Guangzhi’s commentary, all schools except orthodox Confucianism are heretical. However, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucianism was not orthodox, so why did heresy come from? The heresy here should be interpreted as the two ends of the matter , and the two ends of the matter are balanced by the mean, that is, 'over' and 'incompetence'. Studying too much academically, or not reaching it, is wrong and extremely harmful. This is what Kong Sheng wants to express. Thinking. Look at Xu Guangzhi again. He misinterpreted the words of Jinshang to the level of 'to dethrone the masters and a hundred schools of thought'. His academic spirit has already gone to the devil, which is too much. In the words of Confucius, he He has gone into heresy and lost his upright and peaceful mentality, how can he be qualified to refute Legalism on behalf of Confucianism? Just this sentence, I can see through him, and it is enough to describe him in eight words..."
The tall man was fascinated by what he heard, and when he saw her stop and gasped, he hurriedly took the initiative to pour tea, his hoarse voice sounded very simple and honest, "Drink tea, drink tea, go on and on."
Qin Lingyun could hardly hold back his laughter, so he could only turn his face and pretend to cough.
Guan Suyi was delighted by his earnest and knowledgeable attitude. While blowing the tea, he said softly, "Do you think that you are eager for quick success and quick success, to make a name for yourself?"
"Of course!" The tall man clapped his palms and laughed. He has long been swayed by Xu Guangzhi's theory of imitating the ancients. What Yao Shun Yu, what conciliation, what benevolence and virtuousness, the harmony of the world, it is false at first listen. Chinese people really know how to make up stories.
As soon as he thought of this, he listened to Guan Suyi slowly saying, "The concession system that Xu Guangzhi frequently listed is actually a lie, and the truth of history is often concealed under bloody struggles."
"Oh? What do you say?" The tall man leaned forward, his eyes focused. Qin Lingyun, who didn't say a word, was squeezed and squeezed by him, and now he can only smile bitterly at the angle between the wall and the railing. The history of the Central Plains is what this person is most interested in, and he will be attracted when he hears it. If he hadn't changed his face today, and his whereabouts had become a mystery, Qin Lingyun would have wondered whether Guan Suyi was deliberately creating a topic of conversation.
"What advocates Chan-yang said was first seen in the "Shangshu" compiled by Confucius and his disciples, and its authenticity cannot be verified. However, in "Han Feizi" and "Bamboo Book Chronicles", the elucidation of this history is diametrically opposite." It is recorded in Han Feizi: Talking Doubts: Shun forced Yao, Yu forced Shun, Tang Fangjie, and King Wu attacked Zhou; these four kings are the ones who murdered their monarchs, and they are famous all over the world. "Bamboo Book Chronicles" records: Yao At the end of the year, his virtue declined and he was imprisoned by Shun. Shun imprisoned Yao and returned to Yan Danzhu, so that he would not meet his father. Shun imprisoned Yao in Pingyang and took the throne. Han Feizi's argument will not be mentioned for the time being, only "Bamboo Book Chronicles" It is hundreds of years earlier than the "Historical Records", and it is the official history of the Wei State during the Warring States Period, so it is more credible..."
Tan Xing has come up, Guan Suyi talked about the life of Yao, Shun and Yu from the cessation system, how the three came to power, how to fight openly and secretly, how to win over people's hearts, control the government, etc. His words are witty, the plot is rich, and the turning point The ups and downs can be written into a wonderful book of words.
The tall man was fascinated by what he heard. He simply sat next to her with the teapot in his hand, and took the initiative to help refill the tea. His attentive attitude was in sharp contrast with his previous dislike, making Qin Lingyun speechless.
