Chapter 331: Rich bastards sit at the table, and rich gentlemen are obscene!
Strong?
That's true.
But Xia Zhibai doesn’t think that there is anything wrong with being strong. If Liu Sanwu and others continue to let Liu Sanwu and others follow their own whims, the compiled book will not have much knowledge, but will have a lot of ideas for debating scriptures. It's not about learning, it's about debate.
The teaching materials he wants are based on reality and pragmatism, rather than being vague, talking in circles, and saying some specious things.
Such textbooks cannot teach scientists.
There are already too many Confucian scholars in the world.
And if even compiling a basic textbook must be influenced by Confucianism, then why not just use the Confucian "Four Books and Five Classics" as a textbook? Why bother? But that's not what he wants.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other.
Liu Sanwu’s sudden departure also surprised everyone.
As the eldest person in the Hanlin Academy, Liu Sanwu has an important position in the Hanlin Academy. Even His Majesty sometimes has to ask Liu Sanwu for his advice. His right to speak is not unimportant, but now he can't stand Xia Zhibai's meanness and difficulty. , if Liu Sanwu is really impeached, although I don’t know what the outcome will be, the two people will definitely be completely at odds.
No matter which side wins, it will become a hot topic.
However
Huang Zhang and others are naturally happy to see this.
They have been dissatisfied with Xia Zhibai for an equally long time.
He always likes to put his own views above theirs, and Xia Zhibai's views are extremely dangerous, and he also tries to bring out the Mohists, Taoists, etc. from the "old paper pile". If Xia Zhibai really succeeds, what will happen to the world's knowledge? Not in a mess?
They don’t want to go back to the ancient verbal and written warfare.
What's more, just listening to Xia Zhibai's words made them feel horrified.
Because there are too many conflicts of ideas, who is right and who is wrong in the long run? Who can say for sure? After they have studied for so long, wouldn’t it become a decoration in the end? Which of them can accept this? Who can tolerate this gap?
The whole place was silent.
Huang Zhang, Dong Guan and others had sneers on their faces, laughing to see how Xia Zhibai would end.
Xia Zhibai looked calm.
It seems that it is not affected at all.
He looked at the people below indifferently and said calmly: "Anyone else who doesn't agree with it can also leave. My opinion will not change at all. It does not have to be inferior to the past, even after so many years. Thanks to their advancement, many of today's knowledge have already surpassed those of the ancients. Relying on the 'annotations' of generations of literati, forcibly maintaining the 'classics' and forcibly adding 'new ideas' is itself a lack of confidence in oneself. ”
"As the successor of Chinese culture, Ming Dynasty should not inherit only the Han people's political power, but should inherit China's self-confidence and calmness."
"Those who hold wages for the people should not let them freeze to death in the wind and snow."
"Those who open the way for freedom must not let them be trapped in thorns."
"Those who set up their lives for the people should not let them die in the snow."
Don't let them die in silence."
"Those who control the water for the people must not let them drown in the lakes and seas."
"Those who are ignorant and enlightened must not let them be confused by ignorance."
"Those who strive for the present must not be allowed to drown in the dust."
"Those who are laying the foundation for the future must not be allowed to narrow down from wide to narrow."
"Those who seek welfare for the people must not Let him fight hard and be alone."
"I hope my flesh and blood will fall to the ground, paving the way for future generations."
"I hope my bones will become a tree and support the crown for those who come after me."
"Scholars should set up great ambitions and take the world as their own responsibility, and should not fall into the dead end of isolation and conservatism. That is to read the books of sages in vain. Confucius said: When three people walk together, there must be my teacher. Even the Confucian sages know that we must continue to Study and remain humble. Why do today's Confucian scholars regard what they have learned as a standard and cannot tolerate anyone's argument, let alone anyone's objection? ""Perhaps."
< br>"It's because of the lack of talent and shallow learning."
"Once it touches other unknown fields, the secret will be exposed immediately, so what use will such literati who study hard to the world do?"
"Since Speaking of Confucianism.”
"Then you should know that there is a difference between a gentleman and a villain among Confucians."
"The Confucianism of a gentleman is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, upholds justice, and denounces evil. It can not only benefit the current world, but also be famous in future generations, and the Confucianism of a villain can Confucianism is different. It specializes in pen and ink articles and only knows a few tricks. It can be said that when you are young, you can write poems with a bright head and a poor scripture. Although you have a thousand words in your pen, you really don't have any concrete ideas in your mind. "
"It's just quoting scriptures and picking up wisdom from others. People are generous and generous."
"Use a more vulgar folk saying"
"Rich bastards sit at the table, and poor gentlemen are dirty!"
"Chinese literature has made no progress for hundreds of years, has been regressing, and has been complacent."
"If you really have talent and learning, you will not be buried anywhere. Only those who have no pen and ink will be buried. That’s why we are so afraid of change, because once the fig leaf is lifted, the true situation of many people will be directly exposed.”
“So some people are afraid.”
“I don’t want to.”
“You can be afraid, you can be afraid, you can even regard it as a savage beast, but you can’t let future generations also be afraid of it, otherwise one generation will be worse than the other, and the world will be weak. There is really no hope. If it comes to this, I am afraid that you will all become sinners of history and be despised and insulted by scholars all over the world.”
“The purpose of compiling a book is to be fair and objective.”
“You can’t be preconceived, let alone be too selfish.”
“Because the person you want to teach is not your own students, but the whole world. Young people, they are the hope of the world and the future of Ming Dynasty. My words are indeed a little too harsh, even a little extreme, because I don’t want these people to be delayed by these textbooks full of clichés.”
“ They should not accept this situation."
"This is my last reminder. If you still can't be fair, then I will remove you all. There are many people in the world who can read and write. You are indeed. We are a small number of the most talented people in the world. Without your help, it would indeed take a long time to compile these textbooks.”
"But if the effect cannot be achieved, it will be a waste of everyone's time."
"If you bachelors don't help, then I will ask for Gaoming, local literati, folk craftsmen, and farmers. All of them can be used by me. If a hundred people can’t do it, then I can hire a thousand, ten thousand, or one hundred thousand people. As long as there are enough, even if I let them write and teach themselves, it will be enough.”
"I, Xia Zhibai, have a lot of patience."
"And"
"I am younger than you."
"I can afford to wait, I can afford to spend it, and I am even more willing to wait!"
Xia Zhibai's sonorous and powerful words echoed throughout the Hanlin Pavilion and in everyone's hearts.
Everyone could hear the firmness in Xia Zhibai's words, and also sense the seriousness of Xia Zhibai. He was not joking, let alone alarmist, but was really giving them an ultimatum. , if you really don’t cooperate, then change someone.
This is the answer Xia Zhibai gave them!
