Chapter 6938 Majiazhuang
“That’s all we have to do.”
Luo Xingchen sighed, feeling that he was really working hard.
I have been doing martial arts for a long time, organizing and training naval forces, and compiling various new training manuals... There are many difficulties faced in this.
After finally overcoming many military difficulties, now he is back to the starting point.
Fortunately, he still has quite a lot of experience in Confucianism.
Otherwise, it would not have been possible to pass the exam for Jieyuan in the capital by relying on my own ability.
Back then, he didn’t want to continue taking the exam, and I don’t know how many people felt sorry for him.
Especially those teachers and classmates at that time.
Those teachers who have taught him, in recent years, he has not missed the boxing etiquette.
He has always been serious about respecting teachers and teachings without any ambiguity.
After returning to his room, he rested for a while and then opened the book to read.
Mr. Yuelu Zhang Taiyue is indeed from the same lineage as his former teacher. The connection between the academy he once attended and Bailudong Academy is particularly close.
After reading some of Mr. Yuelu's essays, Luo Xingchen took a deep breath and generally understood why Mr. Yuelu was rejected by the current Confucian orthodoxy, Dongling Academy and other groups. .
This view is simply deviant.
"Determined to work hard, just like a tree. It has roots and buds, but they still have no stems; even if they have stems, they have no branches yet. The branches are followed by leaves, and the leaves are followed by flowers and fruits. When the roots are first planted, just cultivate and irrigate them, don't think about the branches, and don't think about the branches. Think of leaves, not flowers. Don’t think realistically, what’s the point of thinking about it? But don’t forget the merits of cultivation, are you afraid that there will be no branches, leaves and flowers?”
After reading this paragraph, Luo Xingchen understood that Zhang Taiyue was originally from the mind-based school and was very particular about it. The most important thing is the unity of knowledge and action.
However, Dongling Academy is a school of Neo-Confucianism, which wants to "remove human desires and preserve natural principles". It regards the Three Cardinal Principles and the Five Constant Virtues as the highest moral standards, and believes that the ethical principles always exist and are "indelible".
Which of the two factions is superior and who is inferior, Luo Xingchen can’t figure out.
Both groups have relatively complete theories.
But when it comes to which Confucian theory the upper class, emperors, generals and ministers prefer, it goes without saying that it must be Neo-Confucianism that emphasizes the "Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Rules".
"Mr. Yuelu is trying to use his arms as a chariot."
"How can academia develop even if the emperor doesn't like it?"
"Even if he was born in Dongling Academy The bureaucrats occupied the court, and the emperor was not willing to use the Xinxue school to deal with the Neo-Confucian school..."
Luo Xingchen sighed again.
It seemed that this time was more difficult than he imagined.
Perhaps Qi Xingyun may not fully support him, but may just use him as a tool.
“But the difficulty of the world is not a reason to shrink from moving forward. Since you have chosen to move forward, you should move forward courageously.”
Luo Xingchen took a deep breath and his eyes became clear. At this moment, his Spirits have been lifted.
The challenges he faced have always been within controllable limits, and almost nothing is difficult for him.
But this time it was different. His enemies on the surface were already powerful enough, not to mention the enemies hidden under the water, which were even more powerful.
On this day, he stayed up late and read most of the night before falling asleep.
In the next few days, he studied behind closed doors, did not go out, and did not contact anyone.
......
At the same time, that night, Zi Yan took Wang Sa outside the city.
"It's getting dark now. Do we really want to go outside?" Wang Sa curled his neck and looked at the night outside, feeling a little depressed. "What? Have you been playing with Madam for a long time recently? Are you feeling broken down? Or are you having the same old problem again?" Zi Yan rolled her eyes at Wang Sa and sneered.
Wang Sa couldn't help but shuddered and hurriedly defended: "No, no, I'm in good health..."
"The old problem has been cured long ago. Yes." Wang Sa grinned, showing a big face. At the same time, he straightened his back and walked with a breeze.
Even if he was afraid in his heart, he did not dare to show it seriously. After all, he knew Zi Yan's temperament well.
If he dared to admit that his old problem was not completely cured, Zi Yan would dare to throw him into a mass grave again, and even let him stay alone in the funeral room for a month at night.
What Zi Yan did last time really made him collapse.
It would be false to say that this old problem has not improved at all. He is indeed much better now than before, but it is also wrong to say that he is completely cured and has not left any root behind.
"Since you are already well, stop talking nonsense and follow me." Zi Yan sneered again.
She has seen Wang Sa's current nature of being fierce and lustful, but she has not exposed it. Some things are best to be seen through but not revealed, and to leave room for leeway.
"The village in front is Majiazhuang?"
Under the dim moonlight, Wang Sa saw a village ahead, submerged in the vigorous trees.
"Yes, it's Majiazhuang. We're here to meet someone tonight." Zi Yan nodded. She hid the little red horse in the distance and walked all the way with Wang Sa.
On the way, Wang Sa passed by a place full of lonely graves, which made Wang Sa a little scared.
However, from a distance, the village looks very peaceful, and stars and lights can be vaguely seen.
Usually on nights like this, most people in the village go to bed early.
The temperature has dropped sharply in the past few days. Farmers in the village will get cold if they don't go to bed.
"Who do you need to see at night? Can't you come during the day?" Wang Sa asked doubtfully.
"This person is not at home during the day, and he will be seen by interested people." Zi Yan said.
"Okay, you are the eldest sister, you have the final say."
Wang Sa knew that it was useless to continue asking. What Zi Yan wanted to say had already been said. What he didn't want to say, he would not get the answer he wanted if he broke the casserole and asked, so it was better to stop.
Walking into the village, Wang Sa saw the flower-skinned dog lying under the big tree at the head of the village.
When the dog opened its eyes and prepared to bark, Zi Yan took out a piece of meat and threw it out.
The chippy dog rushed out without any principles, took the meat in his mouth, ate it happily, and waggled his tail happily towards Zi Yan.
Wang Sa could only lament that this dog was so unprincipled that he bought it off with just a piece of meat.
If he were that dog, he would not compromise until he had two pieces of meat!
"The person I'm looking for is at the entrance of the village. He is the butcher in the village and a hunter with good skills..."
Zi Yan whispered while looking towards Walk inside.
After rounding a bend, we found a house at the head of the village. It looked like a brick and stone house with a small courtyard outside.
Zi Yan naturally did not go to the front, but climbed directly over the wall of the courtyard.
When it landed, it was silent.
Before Wang Sa landed, he also prepared a piece of meat, but after he landed, he realized that the meat he prepared was not used.
Zi Yan walked quickly, walked to the door, and knocked on the door.
"Ahem, who is it?" Along with a cough, an old voice came from inside.
