My life skills in Daming Liver

Nanping is a strange place. It is the hometown of Zhu Xi, and logically speaking, it should be the place where Confucianism flourished.

However, people at that time were quite disgusted with Neo Confucianism, and the people admired Lu Wang Xinxue even more.

Chen Moqun, the mountain chief of Yanping Academy, and Xu Jie, the current leader of Mind Science, are the same Jinshi, and they are also admirers of Mind Science.

Yanping Academy often invites great Confucian scholars of mind studies to give lectures, and there are also many local scholars who discuss mind studies.

However, such things as academics are still too far away for the four poor scholars who have not yet passed the exam.

Moreover, Hai Rui also warned them that it is best not to touch these high-level academics before they pass the exam, because the imperial examination tests Zhu Xi's thoughts, and if they study too much, they will become confused, which is not conducive to the performance of the imperial examination.

This brings us to the unfairness of the imperial examinations. Before the examinations, the questions are all set by provinces and regions.

Although the science of the mind and the science of Neo-Confucianism sound very different, in fact, 90% of the things in Confucianism are common, and the difference is only in the interpretation of a part of the scriptures.

For children from poor families, you don’t know whether the officials who set the questions are inclined to psychology or science, so it’s best to answer the questions honestly. Anyway, you can’t deduct points when you write to the standard answers.

For those scholars who have resources, they can know the academic inclination of the questioner in advance. If the questioner likes to learn from the heart, and incorporate some psychological thinking when answering the question, he can stand out and get good grades.

This is also the reason why Yanping Academy has far more candidates than the county school in recent years. The previous county school instructors didn't bother to focus on teaching, let alone try to figure out the academic trends in the province and the government.

And the head of Yanping Academy is a well-known Confucian in Fujian, who knows the local academics and politics like the back of his hand, and even has friendship with these academic officials.

His students are naturally more likely to win the exam than county school students.

Among Chen Chaoyuan, Xiong Yue, and Lin Qingcai, Xiong Yue's family background is considered the best, and he is most interested in the current popular psychology.

Lin Qingcai is a branch of the rich family, and he has also heard of Xinxue, so he can say a few words.

Chen Chaoyuan is the oldest, and he has been studying too hard these years. He is not interested in the study of mind, and basically does not express his opinions.

Xiong Yue talked about the popular mind theory in Nanping County recently, and said with a sigh: "It's a pity that my family is poor, so I can't go to Yanping Academy to listen to those great Confucianism lectures. I only know a little bit about the mind theory."

Lin Qingcai said: "I'm just a clan brother who has heard the theory of gewu and confidant, and I don't have a clue how to do it. I heard that someone in Houguan built a xinxue jingshe, and they wanted to refine the incense. Only then can you appreciate the method of investigating things."

Su Ze couldn't complain anymore after listening to it. The popularity of psychology these days is more like some kind of qigong pseudoscience. Many people's research on psychology is performance art.

In fact, most people's pursuit of psychology is so formalistic. After all, this thing sounds too mysterious.

And these scholars talk about the study of the mind, not for the real "increasing conscience", but because the study of the mind is very popular in the court and among the people, and by talking about the study of the mind, it can be integrated into the upper circles.

In essence, most scholars admire the learning of the mind, just like the scholars in the Wei and Jin Dynasties liked to talk about metaphysics.

Xiong Yue and Lin Qingcai didn't understand mind studies either. Their yearning for mind studies was like their yearning for red wine and western food when they first changed their business. It belonged to the pursuit of upper-class cultural life.

Su Ze couldn't listen any longer, he said, "To study things to know, you don't have to ask for any great principles. The common people use it every day. If you want to study the mind, you don't need to ask others. You only need to seek your own original knowledge." OK."

All three of them were stunned, and Xiong Yue and Lin Qingcai looked at Su Ze one after another.

At this moment, a middle-aged voice sounded outside the door:

"What a 'people's daily use is Tao'!"

The door of the dormitory was pushed open, only to see Hai Rui in a Confucian uniform standing at the door, and the four quickly stood up and saluted Hai Rui.

After Hai Rui returned the gift, he looked at Su Ze and said, "I didn't expect you to know Wang Taizhou's knowledge?"

Su Ze felt bitter in his heart, the era he traveled through was really too bad!

Obviously just pretending to be coercive, without copying Tang poetry and Song Ci, it’s fine. Zhang Zai, Zhu Xi, and Wang Yangming have also died for many years.

Wang Taizhou is Wang Gen, the founder of Taizhou School.

This sentence is what the common people use every day, which is Wang Gen's famous saying.

Wang Gen gave lectures to Yanding potters in Taizhou, teaching the people how to use them daily, but he died in the 19th year of Jiajing.

Wang Gen's Taizhou School can be regarded as a branch of Wang Yangming's School of Mind, which played a very important role in the ideological circle in the late Ming Dynasty.

After all, Hai Rui is a juren, so he knows that the Taizhou School is also normal.

Su Ze had no choice but to continue to move out of his old father and said, "This is what my father told me when he was here."

Hai Rui didn't pursue it either. He nodded and said, "Your father has studied extensively and must be a great Confucian. It's a pity that I don't have the chance to meet him."

However, Hai Rui still reminded, "Wang Taizhou's academics also have some rebellious words. You must not be affected by them if you want to take the imperial examination. However, this sentence of common people's daily practice is quite a bit of the meaning of learning from the heart."

Hai Rui asked again, "What do you mean by that phrase 'return to your own origin'?"

It turned out that Hai Rui only knew a little about the Taizhou School. Su Ze breathed a sigh of relief. Since Hai Rui only knew a little bit about it, and he only knew a little bit about it, then he just fooled around.

Su Ze recalled the intellectual history of the Ming Dynasty that he had studied, and said:

"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good."

Su Ze continued: "Since the original goodness is good, in order to develop a conscience, all you need to do is to find the original goodness."

Everyone was shocked.

Nothing wrong!

Although there have been debates about the goodness of nature and the evilness of nature in history, the theory of goodness of nature still wins in an all-round way, after all, it has been written into the enlightenment textbooks.

Then "to the conscience" can become "return to the original", this inference is also very rigorous.

Hai Rui still frowned and said, "How to return to the beginning?"

Su Ze bit the bullet and said, "Naturally, you will not forget your original intention."

Su Ze said: "Brother Chen, what is your original intention for reading?"

Chen Chaoyuan recalled what he learned in the first class when he was studying when he was young.

Chen Chaoyuan immediately said: "It's reasonable!"

Su Ze asked Xiong Yue again: "Where's Brother Xiong?"

Xiong Yue thought for a while and said, "Seek fame."

Su Ze looked at Lin Qingcai, who immediately said, "Xing Family."

Su Ze looked at Hai Rui again. Hai Rui was only momentarily confused, but soon said firmly, "I hope the people are safe!"
