Under the big camphor tree, it was filled with students early in the morning.
The two scholars who wanted to work part-time were also planning to leave after listening to the debate.
How strange and lively it is, it is rare to encounter it in your life.
Scholars, students and schoolchildren mostly have the mentality of watching a play. Teachers, relying on their status, are unwilling to argue with a student. If they lose, they will definitely lose face, and if they win, there will be no benefits.
There are only a few fake Taoists who are eager to give Zhao Han a profound lesson.
"Senior please."
"Friends invited first."
Pang Chunlai and Zheng Zhongkui came side by side. The two hit it off immediately and developed a deep friendship within three days.
Zhu Zhiyu, a scholar from Yuyao, did not follow Cai Maode. He came alone with a sword and sat under the big camphor tree to read and wait leisurely.
"Oh, here comes a demon!"
"It's so insulting to politeness!"
"Isn't that brother Changhuai? We haven't seen him for several years, but he actually likes to wear cross-dressing?"
"..."
The debate scene suddenly boiled over, but it was Fei Ruyi who made a brilliant appearance, instantly attracting everyone's attention and becoming the most beautiful kid in the entire academy.
Submit the demon!
From the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, whenever rituals and music collapsed, demons would appear.
Nowadays, many ministers are also obsessed with demons, and they also use frugality as an excuse. Their court uniform belts must be made of leather, but they are made of bamboo shoot shells just to make them lighter - the belts are loose and have no binding function.
The outside is wrapped with green silk, so the bamboo shoots are not afraid of being broken.
Facing the advice and comments from teachers and students, Fei Ruyi did not feel ashamed, but deliberately slowed down so that others could appreciate her grace and beauty.
This is fashion from Suzhou. What do a bunch of country bumpkins know?
Walking up to Zhao Han, Fei Ruyi smiled and said, "Master said, are you ready?"
Zhao Han's anus suddenly tightened, and he stepped back and clasped his fists: "Thank you very much, Brother Changhuai, for your concern. I'm just trying my best."
Seeing Zhao Han's subconscious reaction, Fei Ruyi felt very sad. How could such a handsome young man resist himself?
He swept towards Zhao Han again, Fei Ruhe was too strong, Fei Yuanjian was average-looking... Hey, Fei Ruyi suddenly stared at Fei Chun, this little guy is not bad looking either.
Fei Chun felt numb at the sight and moved sideways behind Fei Ruhe.
At this moment, Fei Yuanlu and Cai Maode came out hand in hand.
There were several chairs under the big camphor tree. Fei Yuanlu smiled and said: "Inspector, please take a seat."
"This is disrespectful." Cai Maode sat in the middle.
Fei Yuanlu said loudly: "There is a crazy student in the academy, Fei Han, who writes articles advocating evil opinions, which has aroused the indignation of teachers and students. The country treats scholars favorably and does not punish them for their words, and the academy does the same. A debate will be held today. The teachers and students of the academy will
You can take turns to ask questions, and you must correct the bias of this child... Jiangxi Governor Cai Gong condescended to visit Hanzhu Academy. This is a blessing for all the teachers and students of the academy. I invite Cai Gong to be the president of today's debate."
Cai Maode stood up slowly and bowed around him: "Gentlemen, it's a pleasure to meet you! More than four hundred years ago, Zhu Xi and Er Lu debated at E Lake. This is called the 'E Lake Debate'. Today, following the example of our ancestors, it can be called 'Han'
"The Debate of Pearls". Gentlemen are harmonious but different. No matter who wins or loses, don't hurt harmony. Winners should guard against arrogance and self-discipline, abide by their true intentions and explore the principles of nature; losers should not be discouraged and discouraged, but should be brave.
Improve your knowledge."
The Ehu Debate was of great and far-reaching significance in the history of the development of Chinese thought, and its influence lasted until the Republic of China.
At that time, Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism was competing against Lu Jiuyuan's and Lu Jiuling's Xinxue.
Zhu Xi advocated reading more, observing more things, and communicating more with others, so that we can sum up our experience and understand the principles of nature through studying things.
Erlu advocates first making up your mind and realizing your original heart, which is the principle. Follow your aspirations and original heart, and not be disturbed by external things, and then observe and transform the world.
No one is right or wrong. If ordinary people are allowed to practice Neo-Confucianism, it is easy to follow the trend and join in the evil, and Xinxue is easy to be divorced from reality and become arrogant and extreme.
"Who is Fei Han?" Cai Maode suddenly asked.
Zhao Han walked to the center of the debate room, bowed his hands and said, "The junior student pays homage to the inspector."
Cai Maode smiled and asked: "How old are you?"
Zhao Han replied: "I am fifteen years old."
Cai Maode asked again: "Were those different theories of yours taught by your teacher?"
Zhao Han replied: "All the sages of ancient and modern times are my teachers."
"Haha," Cai Maode was amused, "You are really arrogant at such a young age, I'll wait and see!"
Zhao Han said: "You should argue with all your strength."
Cai Maode said to everyone: "Today's debate is whether all people in the world are created equal. Fei Han, please explain your own argument."
Zhao Han stood with his hands behind his back and said loudly: "There is no need to elaborate further, it has been clearly stated in the article. If anyone has any questions, just ask them and I will answer them."
Extremely arrogant!
"Okay," Cai Maode announced, "let's discuss gender equality first. Who wants to speak?"
The teachers remained silent, unwilling to argue with the children.
"I'll ask!"
Fei Ruyu suddenly stood up. This guy is over 20 years old, but he is still a child.
Zhao Han smiled and said, "Senior, please tell me."
Fei Ruyu was full of confidence: "Do you know the three obediences and the four virtues?"
Zhao Han said: "Three obediences: obedience to the father before marrying, obedience to the husband when married, and obedience to the son after the death of the husband. Four virtues: a woman's virtue, a woman's words, a woman's appearance, and a woman's merits."
Fei Ruyu asked: "Since we follow our father, husband and son, how can we say that men and women are equal?"
Zhao Han asked: "What is private respect?"
"What?" Fei Ruyu didn't understand.
Zhao Han sneered and said: "You asked me using "Rituals", and I have already answered what the three obediences are. I asked you using "Rituals", why didn't you answer what is private respect?"
Fei Ruyu only knew about the Three Obediences and the Four Virtues. How did he know that the "Three Obediences" came from "Rituals"?
Even if a scholar whose textbook is the "Book of Rites", he will not take the "Book of Rites" in the imperial examination.
If you don’t take the imperial examination, that’s nothing!
Zhao Han had already planned it. In the past three years, he had read through all the Confucian classics. He did not recite them, only memorized the general meaning, and deliberately found faults in the books.
Zhao Han no longer paid attention to Fei Ruyu, but looked around: "The three concords are from "Ritual". If you haven't read this book, don't come and talk nonsense to me!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was embarrassed.
Not to mention ordinary teachers and students, even the mountain leader Fei Yuanlu has never read "Ritual".
Suddenly, Zhu Zhiyu, a scholar from Yuyao, stood up and said: "The father is respected by the son. When the father is alive, the son cannot respect his mother, he can only respect his mother privately. This is private respect. This meaning of 'there are no two days in the sky' just shows the inequality between men and women."
"
Zhao Han asked: "Since I respect my mother privately, it can be seen that the mother is respected. How can I say 'the husband will follow the son even after his death'?"
Zhu Zhiyu explained: "If you are not married, you will obey your father. If you are married, you will obey your husband. If your husband dies, you will obey your son. This is how a woman respects a man. There are no two days in the sky and only one of them can be respected. If the father is alive, a son will respect his mother privately. If his father dies, his mother will follow him."
His son."
"Etiquette" is a thing that determines the rules of etiquette and education, with the purpose of consolidating the ruling order.
If placed in the royal family, the above discussion can be understood as: the emperor is not dead, the prince must respect the emperor, and can only respect the queen in private. When the emperor dies, the prince becomes the new emperor, and the queen becomes the queen mother, then the queen mother must respect the emperor
(Son) is respected.
This is a matter of transformation of superiority and inferiority, which is true for the royal family and among the people.
Zhao Han looked at Zhu Zhiyu and felt helpless.
Alas, I met someone who knows something!
Historically, Zhu Zhiyu's academic thoughts have gone through three periods.
At this time, Zhu Zhiyu had not yet turned to practical learning, but devoted himself to the study of pre-Qin ancient learning. He followed several teachers and became officials one after another. The teacher was ordered to become an official, and Zhu Zhiyu could only travel around. During this period, he followed
Cai Maode runs around.
Zhao Han's half-knowledge can only bully laymen, and immediately blind him when he encounters professionals.
Then mess around, bring the opponent to your level, and then defeat them with your own rich experience!
Zhao Han had already made a plan: "Excuse me, senior, if the father is the eldest son and has been dead for three years, why?"
If translated into vernacular, it means that as a father, why should he mourn for his eldest son for three years?
Zhu Zhiyu replied: "The eldest son inherits the ancestral body and is responsible for the inheritance of the ancestral temple. As a father, he is not mourning for his son, but for the inheritance of the ancestral temple."
Just waiting for your words!
Zhao Han asked loudly: "In today's world, which father can mourn for his son for three years?"
Zhu Zhiyu was speechless and said bravely: "No."
Zhao Han said loudly: "A woman's three obediences are the etiquette of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Nowadays, customs have changed, so why do we need to obey them? If you want to obey them, then do it in full. When a father mourns his son for three years, I will admit that men are superior to women!"
"well said!"
Fei Ruyi clapped her hands and praised.
Zhu Zhiyu was stunned: I'm trying to reason with you, but you're telling me about customs. Are you so shameless?
A teacher named Li Sheng said: "This is not a change of customs, but the collapse of rituals and music. Since the collapse of rituals and music, we scholars should abide by the ethics and teachings and not follow the secular trend!"
Zhao Han cupped his hands and said: "Sir, may I ask how long the "Rituals" stipulates that ministers should mourn for the emperor? When the emperors of the Ming Dynasty passed away, how long did the ministers have to mourn? Is it possible that the Ming emperors were considerate of all people and did not abide by the Shang and Zhou rites?
Is it possible that the system will also lead to the collapse of rituals and music?"
The teacher was speechless.
I can't say it. If I say it, I'm slandering you!
Cai Maode couldn't help but admire: "What a fool, this is the art of firm whitening!"
What is the art of firm whitening?
sophistry!
Zhao Han turned to Cai Maode, raised his hands and said: "The inspector said that I am honest, so I will speak openly and honestly. Teachers and students, please listen!"
