Kong Rong looked at Wang Lang, but he was a little unfamiliar with his affection.
The Wang Lang in front of him has been separated for only a few months, his eyebrows and eyes are still the same, but the expression on his face and the expression in his eyes are already a little unfamiliar.
In his memory, Wang Lang would never be proud of himself just by teaching a few Xiliang soldiers to study, and even called them Zilu.
This is too much, and there is no decent place for the scholar-officials.
Kong Rong looked at the jerky meat, salt beans, and the goat milk wine on the table, and felt disgusted and looked bad.
"It's really Xun's new, and he's new, and he's new. In a few months, Jing Xing had such an understanding that it was beyond the reach of the world.
Wang Lang is also a well-educated person, how could he not hear Kong Rong's sarcasm? He laughed and didn't take it to heart.
When he just accepted Yang Biao's arrangement and went to be a teacher in the army, his resistance was even better than Kong Rong.
"I heard you met the emperor?"
Kong Rong nodded and felt even worse.
It was so embarrassing today. He walked back and forth for more than twenty miles, which made his waist and legs stiff. He had not recovered yet. However, compared to the psychological blow, this hard work is not worth mentioning.
He has been known for his intelligence since he was a child. He was four years old and climbed Li Yinglongmen at the age of ten. He has fought countless times with others and has never been as frustrated as he is today.
Is it because he is the emperor that I am cowardly?
Why can't I throw the Mingtao on the face like before General He entered the door, curse and leave.
It is obvious that he is more rude than He Jin.
"Is the verbal battle lost?" Wang Lang held back his smile.
Kong Rong glared at Wang Lang. "Are you here to come and make a joke?"
"Of course not." Wang Lang waved his hand and signaled to curse Kong Rong unintentionally. "As far as I know, you and Ni Zhengping are the two with the best eloquence and courage among the scholars and officials. I heard that you are here, so I thought,
If neither of you can win, I'm afraid no one can beat the emperor."
Wang Lang put away his smile and looked serious. "Since that's the case, there must be some flaws in Confucianism and was caught by the emperor."
"What can Confucianism have? " Kong Rong blurted out.
He spoke, but his confidence was a little lacking, and his voice became smaller and smaller, and finally he remained silent.
Wang Lang looked at Kong Rong quietly, with a hint of sympathy and a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
"Wenju, you and I are both from Confucianism. You regard yourself as the children of saints, and you are even descendants of saints. But you and I know that Confucianism is now no longer the Confucianism passed down by saints. The Confucianism is now also now
Text, ancient Chinese, learning methods, and family methods are in a mess. Do you believe it if there are no flaws?"
He sighed. "I don't believe it anyway."
Kong Rong wanted to speak but stopped.
Wang Lang took a sip of wine and said, "Many people say that the emperor wants to practice the Qin law. As far as I have been in Guanzhong for several months, I think this statement is biased. If there are still people in this world who believe in Confucianism and the kingly way.
The emperor should be the most determined one."
"He?" Kong Rong disagreed.
"Yes." Wang Lang nodded solemnly. "The reason why he spoke rudely was just that he felt that Confucianism could not achieve the kingly way. Confucian scholars can only sit and discuss the truth, but cannot take up and entrusted with important tasks. Only young people can practice the kingly way.
, so he placed his hopes on young people. Xun Wenruo and Yang Dezu were all young people he had high hopes for. Their approach may be different, but their purpose is the same, all to achieve the kingly way."
Valley
Kong Rong's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but feel a little hot when he remembered the emperor's words that attacked him.
His record in Beihai is really shameless, especially in front of the emperor.
"You are right just now. If you are new, you will be renewed every day, and you will be renewed every day. The Han Dynasty was in full swing, and Shusun Tong, Lu Jia, and Jia Yi advocated Confucianism until Dong Zhongshu followed the three strategies of heaven and man, and Confucianism was the only one. Now it has been more than 300 years.
In the past, Confucianism needed another change. Ma Jichang (Ma Rong) had already started to work on such matters. Among all the disciples, Zheng Kangcheng (Zheng Xuan) had the deepest learning ability. But I dare not go too far if he can complete this great cause.
optimism."
Wang Lang touched Kong Rong's wine glass with his wine glass. "Do you know why?"
Kong Rong raised his eyelids and said angrily: "Ask for advice."
"He is just a scholar, he has no experience in governing the place, he can only do paper learning." Wang Lang laughed: "Is Confucianism just the kingly way on paper? Shusun Tong and Lu Jia are both officials, Jia Yi
He was also a think tank for Xiaowen. Their knowledge has a foundation. To solve practical problems, it is not just a debate on paper."
Kong Rong smacked his lips and looked slightly. "Jing Xing, what you said does make sense."
"So I said, you're more suitable than him."
"What?" Kong Rong was stunned for a moment.
"You have a better chance to reform Confucianism than Zheng Kangcheng." Wang Lang said. "Don't waste your energy on those verbal disputes. Do something that is beneficial to people's livelihood and Confucianism. Otherwise, a hundred years later, the sages may be afraid of
It’s not about knocking on the shin with a stick, but about breaking your legs.”
Kong Rong glared at Wang Lang, but couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Wang Lang is right.
He had a better chance than Zheng Xuan to become the one who revitalizes Confucianism.
"You are here to persuade me to go to the army like you, right?" Kong Rong said seriously: "I don't have that leisure and leisure ambition."
Wang Lang shook his hand. "You should have a better place to go."
"where?"
"Don't you know that the emperor wants to study the Imperial Academy?" Wang Lang smiled and said, "Go to the Imperial Academy. Zhao Bingqing is over 90 years old and has not much more days left. The Imperial Academy needs a person with both knowledge and physical strength to serve as a sacrificial wine.
Following the Zhou and Qin changes, Guanzhong will usher in another major change. Being in it is a good opportunity to recreate the Confucian school.”
Kong Rong was already moved, but he refused to let go. "I have no interest in "Mencius"."
"To promote the kingly way, it is naturally not something that Mencius can only serve in "Mencius". However, as a disciple of the saint, Meng Ke's theory has its advantages and cannot be ignored." Wang Lang smiled and said, "Take the essence and remove the dross."
Only then can we achieve new doctrines. Confucius said to be successful in benevolence, and Meng said to be righteous, are all part of the kingly way.”
Kong Rong remained silent, but held up the wine glass on the table with his hand.
Wang Lang advised him repeatedly, "Come on, have a drink, I believe you will like it."
Kong Rong glanced at Wang Lang, raised his wine glass a little reluctantly, and touched Wang Lang.
Wang Lang drank it all, but Kong Rong just took a sip and tasted it, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
This goat milk wine is indeed different from the Central Plains wine. It is more smooth and does not have the smell of the Central Plains goat milk. Instead, it is fragrant and pleasant, which dissolves the spicyness of the wine and is very good at the mouth.
"Stop looking, drink it." Wang Lang squeezed his eyes. "This goat milk wine is not only fragrant, but also healthy. Drink one liter every day, and after three months, you will know the beauty."
"really?"
Wang Lang smiled. "You know, the inner person has always been in poor health, so he has only given birth to one child for so many years. After arriving in Guanzhong, she has a glass of goat milk every morning, and her physical strength has become stronger and she has just become pregnant. Although you are a child
Many, but if you want to achieve something, how can you achieve without a good body? Work hard to add food, start with a cup of goat milk every day.”
