Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

Zhu Houzhao looked a little nervous.

In order to prepare for lessons, he didn't sleep well for half a month, and he didn't even play marbles with Fang Jifan.

He is a very competitive man.

Also want to do something.

It's just that he doesn't like being indoctrinated.

Everyone has a side that is good at being a teacher, and so is Zhu Houzhao.

After all, I am the dean of these students, the dean of a dignified academy, how can I not teach any knowledge at all.

Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath, and when he asked what the people were, the students were silent. It was the first time for them to listen to His Highness the Crown Prince's lecture, and they were also a little nervous, so they dared not answer rashly.

"..."

This is a bit embarrassing.

Zhu Houzhao, who was always daring, became a little nervous.

Looking at Fang Jifan, Fang Jifan looked up at the beams of the house.

Zhu Houzhao was a little speechless.

After thinking about it, he actually felt cramped.

I couldn't help being secretly annoyed, and spent more than half a month preparing, but... there was trouble on the spot.

The sentient beings saw that His Royal Highness was silent, let alone dared to say anything.

So, stare wide-eyed.

Zhu Houzhao was a little confused.

At this time, a few observers quietly entered the Minglun hall, and they sat in the corner.

In the academy, there are many such things, because there are many people who come to attend lectures because of their fame, not everyone will strictly abide by the class time, and some people will come when they are interested, but the scholars who come to attend lectures generally will not affect others , will tiptoe to the auditorium seats and kneel down.

But the people here are a little unusual.

Emperor Hongzhi has come to Xishan for the fifth time.

Xishan gave him a kind feeling, he witnessed the growing prosperity of Xishan, but...seeing his son at this moment, standing on the podium...Emperor Hongzhi was in a happy mood, a little...complicated.

Dean of the academy, I just let you have a name.

The prince didn't like reading since he was a child, and he usually only knew a little about reading, but he dared to go on stage to teach people knowledge without shame.

I'm really not afraid of embarrassment.

Emperor Hongzhi knew how much his son weighed, so he regretted coming.

Especially when facing Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian who came with him, Emperor Hongzhi's face was slightly red.

But he still had a smile on his face and didn't get angry.

Anyway, the crown prince and Fang Jifan have made great contributions.

Suppressing Nakano Erlang made me worry-free.

He saw Zhu Houzhao standing on the podium in a daze.

In fact, I already want to take this guy down at this time, don't be ashamed, lest others know that your level is limited and you haven't read many books?

Xie Qian seemed to have seen His Majesty's thoughts, but he looked up at the prince again.

Xie Qian suddenly said: "Dare to ask, what is the difference between heart and reason?"

Xie Qian is indeed an old Jianghu.

He has mixed feelings about the new learning. Wang Shouren's principles are set in one set. To be honest, even Xie Qian, who has always been eloquent, can hardly find his loopholes.

Today...he would like to know what the crown prince thinks about this.

Xinxue advocates xinxing, while Neo Confucianism advocates rationality. This is the biggest difference between them.

Xie Qian is actually a humorous person. When he saw the prince on stage, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Emperor Hongzhi blushed, asking such a big question, didn't it make it clear that the crown prince was going to make a fool of himself?

Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief.

Busy looked at the person who was asking the question, but when he saw Xie Qian, he was taken aback for a moment, and then saw that the person sitting there was his father, and his expression changed even more.

It seemed that Emperor Hongzhi didn't want father and son to recognize each other at this moment, so he deliberately turned his face away.

After a brief silence, Zhu Houzhao suddenly settled down.

Father has always looked down on himself.

But for some reason, he came today.

Leave him alone.

Zhu Houzhao said seriously: "This old student...good question!"

The smile on Xie Qian's face gradually disappeared.

Zhu Houzhao said: "What is heart and what is reason? Well, the heart is just the original heart. You and I both have hearts, just like this old student..."

Xie Qian's old face changed again.

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "I also have a heart!"

"What do I have in mind?" Xie Qian began to use his instinct to argue.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Dare to ask the old student, what will happen when you meet your father?"

"..." Xie Qian shivered.

The prince has always been used to talking nonsense.

Now that he suddenly brought out his own father, he wouldn't be talking nonsense.

Seeing him, Zhu Houzhao didn't answer: "This old student, did he think of being filial to his father after seeing his father?"

call……

Xie Qian breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately... this guy didn't talk nonsense, he nodded: "Not bad."

"Then..." Zhu Houzhao said again: "But if at this time, the old student..."

"I'm not a veteran."

"Then I'll call you student student Xie. Here, apart from me, the dean of the academy, the vice-principal, doctors, teaching assistants, etc., everyone else is a student student."

. "

Thank you student...

Xie Qian had nothing to say.

"Student Xie, I dare to ask you, if you saw the boy thrown into the well at this time, would you have any compassion?"

Xie Qian was silent for a moment, the boy threw himself into the well?

"Naturally."

"This is the nature of mind. Some people pay attention to reason and think that the human heart should follow the laws of heaven and restrain their desires. For example, people have selfish desires and desires. Then, only by suppressing their own desires can they pursue the way of a saint." But this is not right, as I said, people are filial to their parents, not because of the principles that teach you how to do it. When you see a child thrown into the well, you will naturally feel compassion. In between, it is the nature of human beings to do it, so is this what logic requires people to do?"

"Let me ask Mr. Xie again, if you saw a child thrown into a well, would you subconsciously help him?"

Xie Qian said without hesitation: "Yes."

Zhu Houzhao said: "Student Xie has a heart of compassion and is willing to help. Dare I ask, is this a reason that requires you to do this, or is it just an instinct of Xie Sheng?"

Xie Qian was silent, and thought for a long time: "I think it's just a matter of thought."

"In just one thought, it is the heart of Xie Sheng. Because Xie Sheng's heart is like this, so when seeing a child thrown into a well, the first thought is a heart of compassion; after that, Xie Sheng gives a helping hand, then, this is the way, people Only when there is a thought, can there be action, isn't it? So where is the reason? Do we have to ask ourselves before we do anything? Is it in line with the principle of a sage, if it is like this everywhere, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"

"People's behavior comes from the heart, not from the hair. We always emphasize rationality and curb the desire in our hearts. This may not be a good thing."

Xie Qian was thoughtful, and actually felt that this prince...has made a lot of progress.

Emperor Hongzhi also raised his eyes in astonishment and looked at Zhu Houzhao, only to see that Zhu Houzhao began to slowly enter the state.

I have been in Xishan Academy for a long time, even if it is a pig, no, it should not be called a pig, but now it should be called a dolphin, even a dolphin, it will be enlightened.

What's more, in order to come to teach, he forgot to sleep and eat, and was thinking blindly all day long. Zhu Houzhao is a person with a high level of understanding. Once he puts his heart into it, it is much easier to absorb knowledge.

Zhu Houzhao seemed to be too lazy to pay attention to the provocative Xie student: "We use rationality to suppress our desires. There is nothing wrong with it. This is a personal matter. Some people are diligent and thrifty. This is rationality. He curbs his inner desires and does not hinder others. thing."

"But the most frightening thing is that people pursue rationality too much. They not only use reason to restrain themselves, but also restrain the behavior of others. Because they are frugal, they ask others to be as frugal as they are. Because they have few desires, they ask others to be like him. The same few desires. If others don’t follow, they have to speak the truth, ridicule everywhere, and even beat them violently.”

"..."

Emperor Hongzhi felt that he was gradually getting better.

Actually... it sounds reasonable.

Where did this kid learn it from?

But... Hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback. This sentence... sounds a bit unpleasant, what do you mean? Am I not a thrifty person? So I ask you Zhu Houzhao to be frugal too. There are also violent beatings at every turn, what does this mean?

Listen...it seems to be talking about me.

Zhu Houzhao continued: "This...is the biggest problem at the moment. Scholars have learned the truth, no matter whether they restrain their selfish desires or not, they always like to criticize others with their selfish desires. Let's talk about military households..."

military household...

Zhu Houzhao said: "The military households serve the country. This is their duty. But many ministers in the court use reason to ask others. The military households do not have enough food and pay. They will be hungry. At this time, some people will Said, you are loyal to the country, can't you overcome the hunger? Hungry is a selfish desire, as long as you think about the principle of being loyal to the king and serving the country, why can't you kill the enemy hungry?"

"Military households also have wives and children. They are hungry, and their wives and children are also pale. A group of people can't get enough to eat, but they want them to be rational, curb their selfish desires, and go to battle to kill the enemy. Isn't it ridiculous?"

"The current problems all stem from this... Our scholars demand that people have no selfish desires everywhere, and that everyone is like an ancient sage. But what about the military households? Don't they know that if the Tatars come Now, the Japanese pirates are coming. If I don’t fight bravely, will these robbers rape and plunder? No, they know it, they have their own temperament, just like they have a heart of compassion when they see a child thrown into a well. Do you not sympathize with the people slaughtered by Tatars and Japanese pirates?"

"But... military households are not saints. We must admit that they have their own desires. If you keep silent and ignore this point deliberately, then... a hidden danger in this world will appear!"

I won’t stay up late in the future, I’m stuck, I stayed up most of the night, but I only wrote one chapter. After I got up, I felt dizzy and dizzy, and it took me a long time to write a little word.
