Chapter 1277 Debate
On May 13, the first year of Zhenming of Daliang (334), the sky was high and the clouds were clear.
After Zhong Xin was ringing, Shao Xun entered the city and sat north and south, and stayed in the upper head.
Crown Prince Shao Jin sat in the lower left, and Prime Minister Wang Yan was opposite the crown prince.
Below the two were the princes, important officials of the Taiwan Pavilion, and noble generals.
Then there are some more representative natives, such as Lekai, Peijun Liu, Prince Taishi, Dunhuang Song Xian,
Pingyuan Huayingzhi, Taiyuan Guo Jing, etc.
Some of these people have official positions, while others do not. The similarity is that they all have considerable voice in the family, or they themselves represent the family.
Of course, there are also those who Shao Xun called for, such as the Xie An brothers, who did not do anything else but to satisfy their curiosity.
Seeing that everyone was coming, Wang Yan cleared his throat and looked outside.
There were more people in the yard, and there was no place for them in the hall, so I could only sit in the yard and listen, if I could hear it.
He swept the emperor's back, and the secretary-general Lu Chen took Zhang Yu and Wang Xizhi to record the records.
Everything is ready.
"All the lords are all talented, and they gather here together, which is a great event since the founding of the country." Wang Yan said straight to the point: "You have read the "New Theory of Chongyou". Now you can speak freely, regardless of high or low, old or young, just to argue. If there is any conflict, the emperor will not blame him."
After saying that, Wang Yan waved his tail and signaled to the two people in the crowd.
Mao Bang, Minister of Personnel, and Pei Xuan, a native of Hedong, stood up and sat in the center.
Liu raised his eyebrows and said, this was a rare and more formal conversation.
The conversation is divided into two parties, the guest and the host. These two are called "masters". They first explain their own opinions, which is called "comprehensive".
In addition to the Lord, there are also "guests". They come forward to question the Lord, which is called "difficulty".
The role of the main guest may be changed, and the host in turn asks the guest, and this is repeated.
Those who win a debate are called "win", and those who lose are called "qui".
Wang Yan didn't know how many people he had surrendered back then, but no one talked about this with him since the end of the Jin Dynasty. Today's scene has not been seen for a long time.
The host's opinion has been "comprehensive", which is the revised version of Chongyou Lun. Now guests need to come forward to question it.
Liu Zheng wanted to see who jumped out the first one, but he met an acquaintance: Wang Chong from the Wang family of Chengyang.
Didn’t this say that he wanted to cross the south? Didn’t he go?
"The Tao gives birth to all things, and all things have their own preferences. You are in office, I live in seclusion, you are obedient, I am indulging in love, I am indulging in love, and both of them have nothing to do with each other, and they follow their own ways. Wouldn't it be nice?" Wang Chong looked at Pei Xuan and Mao Bang and said bluntly.
Mao Bang first bowed to Pei Xuan, and then said, "Did you not read the whole thing? The first paragraph contains a "feeling". Knowledge and wisdom are taught, and they are from different entrepreneurship, and they are all based on emotions. You can live in seclusion, but you cannot act arbitrarily. This is emotion. The Tao produces all things, and all things are biased, and you cannot be self-sufficient. You must obtain external things. As small as one family, you need to work together with the tribesmen, and to resist foreign aggression. When you resist foreign aggression, you need to obtain food for farmers, equipment for craftsmen, and courage for warriors. This is called "there is a combination of resources, so friendship is."
This sentence means that Tao produces all things, but all things are incomplete. If you want to succeed, you have to cooperate with each other. Since you have to cooperate with each other, you must be "suitable". Everyone must abide by certain rules or social contracts.
If you don't want to participate, then "from love", but you should also be "suitable" when you live in seclusion and not act too recklessly. The extended meaning is that you cannot affect other people.
"In the past, the Han Dynasty was tall and stable, and all the wastes were prospered, so the country was promoted without action, and the country was prospered." Wang Chong said again: "Now that Daliang has just pacified the world, why not govern without action? Rest with the people?"
"How about governing with nothing?" Mao Bang said: "Today, there are many people with ill-hearted hearts. Just as officials live in kindness and obedience, respect and frugality, lead loyalty and trustworthiness, act respectfully and give in, have no desires and no use in things. Only by being united in one's heart can you achieve great things. If it weren't for this, would you like to wait for the world to be in chaos again?"
Looking forward to the chaos in the world, Wang Chong was a little anxious and said, "My manor produces its own grain and meat for me to eat;
I slept until the sun was noon, and I had no ambition to disrupt the world; what did I do, I want you to take care of it?"
"Have you heard that there are national laws?" Mao Bang asked, "The extravagant desires are like Shi Chong of Jin, who exploited the people in every way, and made the people suffer. Is your patriarch better than angry? Pei Yimin also said that the desires are worthy of damage, but it is not possible to be eliminated. We do not want you to farm and eat by yourself, but we just restrain your desires and do not want extravagant. The so-called "all principles" coexist without harm. If we do not do this, the Huns will kill you in front of your patriarch, and the patriarch will definitely abandon you."
This passage means that Pei Yimin knew that desires could not be banned, but they should be restrained. Therefore, "all principles coexist without harm, and the noble and the servants of the village are in their own positions and coexist without harm. In fact, it is a way of thinking that allows the manor to develop sustainably. From the standpoint of the manor owner, they should not act recklessly and not make the heavens angry or resentful.
When Tu Chong was asked this, he felt that it was quite reasonable.
People think you should do something for the world, but if you don’t want to, they don’t force you to become an official or something. They just give you a set of behavioral norms to restrain you a little, and to restrain yourself a little, so as not to make the patrons suffer and full of resentment.
He bowed his hand and sat back. Yuan Zidu said, "I have three meals a day, but I am just a cake and a pig. I have only a few wives and concubines, and I have fewer than my eldest son. What's the point of heaven?"
Liu laughed secretly after hearing this, and then carefully observed Shao Xun's expression. He found that he was listening with a smile. After that, he felt relieved.
It seems that the emperor is saying it is true and can speak freely.
At this moment, another man stood up and shouted: "Pei Yimin advised scholars to be polite and be pragmatic, which is good. However, he was abusing the people."
"First, the method of grass alkali is very expensive, and the income is just to prevent the skin and armor from getting oil spots. It can be said to be flashy and unreal, which is harmful to people's money."
"Second, watching astrology and boating on the sea, can you tell that the waves are dangerous and the worries of overturning the boat? This is a harm to human life."
"Third, Pei Yimin said a lot of Confucianism, and the disasters of Confucianism in Han Dynasty are vivid in my mind. If you learn this, you will be ridiculed by others. This will harm others' reputation."
"Fourth, the pills are harmful, and they are very disharmonious. This is harmful to people's spirit."
"Fifth, if you have done too much, you may make the barbarians powerful. The horses and horses on the high bridge, the horses and the horses on both sides, will be invincible. This will harm the common people in the world."
"The great way is invisible and vague and difficult to find. All things are biased. If you look at the truth, you will never gain anything. It is better to retreat and nourish yourself and be pure and natural."
When Liu Dingqing saw that it was Deng Sui, the nephew of Deng You of Pingyang.
Pei Xuan and Mao Bang looked at each other, and then he came forward and said, "You are wrong."
"Where is the preciousness of grass alkali? It's just that I didn't know the method at the beginning, and I spent a lot of money. Now I have detailed the method and everyone can learn it. What's the preciousness? If you really think it's expensive, you will have the hu alkali that transfers to the grassland. Furthermore, you can do everything within your ability. Some people want to make profits and lose money, and they are willing to accept the loss. They say more? Some people just want to be good at it, let alone talk more. As Mr. Pei said, whether to do it or not is based on love."
"The sea is ruthless, and it is worth worrying. However, the two counties of Jin'an and Jian'an have many mountains and few lands, so they have no food and clothing, so they can only go to the sea to fight for their lives. At this moment, the court should not hold it on the ground, but instead encourage them to go out to sea to find a way to live. Today, a ship is built,
You said that the wind and waves on the sea are high and rushing, which harms people's lives, so you destroy the shipyard and the shipyard is apart. Everything is the same as before. However, if someone wants to go to sea a hundred years later, he will have to build a ship from now on, even worse, because the shipyard has dispersed, the ships built are even worse. Is this because he is useless?"
"The elixir is inherently harmful, and everyone in the north knows it. The article compiled by Wanxiangyuan has just been released, and the golden elixir liquid is actually sulfur, which is beneficial to take a little bit.
If there are too many, it will be harmful. The emperor did not order you and others to make this medicine, but something as useful as grass alkali. Shaofu also has a method to transform and test all things.
It is called "chemistry". You should take the medicine produced by heaven and earth. You should not take it before you understand its nature. If you have time, you can study it carefully. If you have time, you can collect the power of those who are interested in this way and enter the Wanxiang Academy to compile the article. Whether it is harmful can you tell at a glance. The rules set by the emperor are "questioning" and "actual evidence". Zhenming's revision of the Yuan Dynasty also mentions "seeking truth from facts". Do not talk nonsense or act randomly, and do not understand this principle, what else can you say?"
"Your words about the two sides of horses, and the high bridge saddles help to increase the thief's power, which is even more nonsense. Horses and saddles are dead objects, so I can't use them if the Hu people use them? Furthermore, many small countries in the Western Regions are not the barbarians, they have cities, hundreds of craftsmen, documents, and official systems. The Xiongnu and Xianbei do not learn from you, but they can also learn from the Western Regions. When I heard that there were many Hus in the Western Regions in the formation, what did you say?"
"All these few are not worth a moment of exposure. They are mostly because of the words of eating and eating. It seems that nothing is enough to do, but it is bad if you do it. Don't you do it according to your ability? Don't you keep up with the times? Don't you hear the truth?"
After hearing this, Deng Sui still seemed to disagree.
"Now I live in a house, with grain, brocade, and carriage. I can read and practice calligraphy when I am free. You can do this, and you can be extravagant and extremely desireful. Isn't it contrary to what Pei Yimin said?" He asked.
"Please encourage you to be stolen, so that the poor and poor can breathe a breath." Pei Xuan said, "If the world is rich in resources, who will not allow you to satisfy your desires? How did the people live in the pre-Qin period? So what are you doing now? Are you willing to let you live the life of the pre-Qin period?"
Deng Sui shook his head, not wanting to say more.
Shao Xun observed silently on the top.
In fact, it is still hard to say whether today's meeting can achieve the effect as the previous Han Yan and Iron Conference.
It is difficult to change a person's mind, but it must be done.
Everything has difficulties and everything has harm. What should be done is to try to resolve the difficulties and reduce the harm, rather than to waste food because of the loss of food. How can there be perfect in the world?
During the Salt and Iron Conference, Sang Hongyang fought against more than 60 virtuous counties and states. Because Huo Guang pulled the sidelines, the debate failed and the policy was set.
At the Vientiane Conference, Mao Bang and Pei Xuan are also fighting against scholars from all counties. Shao Xun can be arguing, but so far it seems that there is no need because he has decided to die.
"Your Majesty, the road is difficult and it is very difficult to find the "reason" of all things. Even if you spend your whole life, you will be hard to make progress. Is it necessary to do this?" Liu's voice suddenly rang.
Unexpectedly, I asked myself.
Shao Xun smiled, then stretched out a finger and said, "I only have a few words."
"First, question first, then prove it, seek truth from facts, and don't make random guesses."
"Second, this year, this year, next year, and ten years, a hundred years later. I don't know how many years later, foreign enemies will kill the city and are in danger. At this time, I feel that I need to study the truth. Looking back, I found that I still have to start from today."
"Third, do what you can. It's not just that you can lose everything and do as much as you have enough effort to do."
