No one expected that Chen Yuan had such a high opinion of Cao Cao.
Cai Yong thought about it and said: "Meng De is indeed an extraordinary person. When he was studying in my school, he often said that he wanted to be a general in the Western Conquest."
Chen Yuan nodded: "I think his nature is very special, and he is not someone who has lived under others for a long time."
"In that case, why not get rid of it as soon as possible?"
The one who said this was Xi Zhicai.
Before Chen Yuan could speak, Liu Bei stood up and said decisively: "Meng De is now a minister of the Han Dynasty, and he has not yet committed any rebellion. How can we kill the court ministers without permission? What is the difference between this and the rebellion of the ministers?"
Liu Bei discovered a problem.
That is, the counselors under his command went astray under the leadership of Chen Yuan.
Everyone wants to put themselves on the throne of the emperor.
This is absolutely not okay.
I, Liu Bei, can never be emperor.
It's impossible in this life.
If Chen Yuan knew that Liu Bei thought this way, he would definitely give Liu Bei the word, so sweet.
Chen Yuan nodded: "What my lord said is true. Although we once again talk about the heroes of the world, we must not kill the court officials. This shows that we are a little guilty and cowardly. Gentlemen, with your talents,
Don’t you have the confidence to assist your lord and make him the most important minister of the imperial court? At that time, if anyone dares to act rebelliously, they will be eliminated directly, so why bother being a villain now?"
Chen Yuan's words seemed very appropriate.
Not only took care of Liu Bei, but also took care of these counselors.
Obviously, Chen Yuan's emotional intelligence is also gradually growing.
When everyone heard what Chen Yuan said, they all nodded: "What Zichu said is true. You should not be rash in your ambitions."
Liu Bei expressed that he was very tired.
That's not what I meant.
However, there is nothing wrong with what Chen Yuan said on the surface.
Liu Bei simply gave up, forget it, tired, just destroy it.
You can do whatever you like, as long as you don't rebel, you can do whatever you want.
The conversation ended here, because Chen Yuan found that the topic had gone astray.
Therefore, Chen Yuan quickly ended the topic.
"Gentlemen, I am going to teach students a lesson next, do you still want to observe?"
Liu Bei actually didn't want to leave.
Because once you leave, you have to deal with endless political affairs.
Nowadays, the political affairs in Jingzhou are very complicated. Although there are people like Gu Yong as helpers, some things require the nod of Liu Bei, the state shepherd.
For example, the subsequent disposition of the Cai family.
However, Liu Bei didn't want to leave, but Cai Yong and the others wanted to leave.
Because they all have a lot of things to deal with.
I came to Chen Yuan's place just as a way, not just to see Chen Yuan.
Everyone left, and Liu Bei was too embarrassed to stay here any longer.
I can only leave with everyone.
Looking at Liu Bei's reluctant eyes, Chen Yuan couldn't help but smile to himself.
As the eldest brother, I am still very concerned about political affairs.
Liu Bei in history was actually very troubled about handling political affairs.
He is essentially more of a soldier, or a ranger.
It's okay to let him pick up a knife and kill someone. He will definitely just pick up the knife and leave without saying anything.
But asking him to handle political affairs is almost like killing him.
This was one of the reasons why he later liked to delegate government affairs to his subordinates.
Everyone left, and Chen Yuan looked at these little guys: "After listening to what you gentlemen said, what did you gain?"
They are not fools. They naturally know how high-level the discussion today is.
These little guys are not fools, so they naturally know that Chen Yuan did this intentionally.
They bowed to Chen Yuan and said, "Thank you sir."
Chen Yuan raised his hand to signal them to stand up: "It doesn't have to be like this. You are my students, and I will naturally give you everything I have learned. But I hope you remember one thing, that is, to be a person who is useful to the country and the people."
People, do you remember?"
"Teacher, we remember."
"Okay, let's move on to the rest of the course."
"Geography is also an all-inclusive course. "Book of Changes" contains the sentence "Look up to observe astronomy, and look down to observe geography." What we need to learn is not only geography but also astronomy. In fact,
Shangnai is the study of all phenomena related to the earth we live on."
Seeing the confused faces of the little guys below, Chen Yuan thought for a moment: "Well, let me give you an example."
"Do you know why there is a solar eclipse?"
As soon as Yuan Tan was released from prison, he began to show his great wisdom.
"Of course I know, the tengu swallows the sun."
Chen Yuan glanced at Yuan Tan: "Yuan Tan, are you really a descendant of the Yuan family?"
Yuan Tan was stunned: "Sir, what does this mean? Of course I am a member of the Yuan family."
"Since we are members of the Yuan family, why don't we even know that the sun and the moon combine together?"
In fact, ancient people had known about solar eclipses for a long time, and they were not simply some tengu swallowing the sun.
Many stones were unearthed from many Han tombs unearthed in later generations. These stones were carved with many figures of the sun, moon and stars. One of them had "Sun and Moon Together", which means the sun and the moon are stacked together.
Therefore, some people in this era have already had a relatively scientific understanding of solar eclipses.
It is believed that the moon blocks the sun's light, which is basically consistent with the modern understanding of solar eclipses.
Yuan Tan couldn't help but blush when he heard this.
Then I looked at the others, is there such a thing?
He was looking at Cao Ang.
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao still have a very good relationship now, and they can be regarded as close buddies.
Therefore, Yuan Tan and Cao Ang also met frequently, so their relationship was naturally good.
Cao Ang nodded to Yuan Tan, indicating that he was right.
Seeing that his friend Cao Ang recognized it, Yuan Tan was speechless.
He wanted to show off his intelligence, but ended up being timid, which made Yuan Tan very embarrassed.
To be honest, this half day has been a big blow to Yuan Tan.
Because no one here cares about the halo of his fourth generation and third son, and after removing this halo, Yuan Tan found that he was nothing more than that, and could not even compare to Cao Ang, which devastated Yuan Tan.
Chen Yuan doesn't care what Yuan Tan thinks. Even if he knows what Yuan Tan thinks, Chen Yuan doesn't care.
In his opinion, little guys like Yuan Tan deserve a blow.
It is difficult to grow up without poverty, and you are naive without fighting against the old age.
This is very true.
Therefore, Yuan Tan should hit him more, this is for his own good.
"Solar eclipses are caused when the sun, moon and the earth where we are are aligned in a straight line, and the moon blocks the sun's light. Sometimes it blocks all of it, which is a total solar eclipse. Sometimes it blocks part of it, which is a partial solar eclipse. What does it mean?
It has nothing to do with the Tengu swallowing the sun."
"The geography we learn is to study the principles of such phenomena, such as why there are solar and lunar eclipses, why water flows eastward, why the north is cold and the south is warm, why the mountains are cold and the mountains are warm, why the north wind is cold and
Nan Feng Nuan, etc., if you learn this course well, you will be able to know everything about the world without leaving home."
Geography is really all-encompassing.
If history is vertical, then geography is horizontal.
History is time, then geography is space.
If you are good at history and geography, then there is nothing you don’t know about everything in the world.
Everyone in the audience was even more shocked when they heard what Chen Yuan said.
This kind of knowledge is a secret that is not passed down.
No one had ever told them these things.
Because this is something they are accustomed to, but they didn't expect that it contains so many truths.
But, how did Chen Yuan know?
Smart people like Liu Ye just raise their hands.
Chen Yuan signaled Liu Ye to get up and talk.
"May I ask sir, how do you know these things?"
Although Chen Yuan's teacher was Cai Yong, they would never think that Chen Yuan learned these things from Cai Yong.
Because Chen Yuan had been apprenticed to Cai Yong for less than a year.
Moreover, Cai Yong is a Confucian scholar, and these things have nothing to do with Confucian scholars.
So where did Chen Yuan’s knowledge and principles come from?
Chen Yuan looked at Liu Ye, and then at the others: "You also want to know?"
"Yes, sir."
Of course they were curious, because this was a knowledge they had never had before.
Although in the past there were maps of the Yugong region and art of war that included this kind of knowledge, there was absolutely nothing like what Chen Yuan said.
Because the Yugong Territory Map is nothing more than a map, and the Art of War is even more sketchy. It only talks about how the general should control the terrain, and that's all.
As for how this phenomenon occurred, there is absolutely no idea.
If, as Chen Yuan said, the course of geography can explain all of this, then this will be an earth-shattering knowledge.
Because if they know the reasons for these phenomena, they may not be able to control such phenomena.
This is what is called the right time and the right place.
With such knowledge, there is nowhere in the world to go.
Not to mention Zhou Yu and the others were interested, even Gongsun Xu and Liu Zhang were also extremely interested.
Especially Liu Zhang. His current ambition is to build straight roads to connect the wilderness. Is this geography exactly what he needs?
Chen Yuan smiled and said: "I researched this knowledge on my own, and I might as well tell you the research method, which is to study things to gain knowledge."
With that said, Chen Yuan asked Liu Ye to sit down.
"Studying things to achieve knowledge is the foundation of what you, sir, and I have learned. Once you have learned this method, you can study everything in the world and draw the truth from it. So, do you want to learn it?"
At this time, the eyes of these little guys lit up.
There is such a magical method.
Dogs don’t want to learn.
"Mr. Dare to teach us!"
Everyone bowed down and bowed.
Because, Chen Yuan said, this is the fundamental method of his knowledge.
Logically speaking, this fundamental method cannot be taught by direct disciples.
However, how could Chen Yuan have such an idea?
He wished that everyone could learn his own method.
The so-called study of things to achieve knowledge is nothing new.
It is nothing more than having the spirit of doubting everything. For any thing, thing or phenomenon, you have to ask why, then make bold assumptions, carefully verify, and derive the truth from it.
To put it bluntly, it is the spirit of science.
What is science? Science means that all things and phenomena can be understood and the principles behind them can be explored.
Of course, Chen Yuan did not use science to explain, but used the method of studying things to achieve knowledge.
Studying things to achieve knowledge is actually science.
Study things and get the truth from them.
Isn't this science?
When the concept of studying things to achieve knowledge was first proposed, the connotation was actually very good, but later people misread the sutra.
The knowledge they achieve is not the truth of objective things, but instead seeks from the heart.
You need to know your own heart through studying things.
This is nonsense.
In fact, the essence is still inseparable from the set of things called heaven and human induction.
Chinese culture, no matter what it is, you have to go inward when you do it, and it is easy to follow what the metaphysics call the Tao.
In fact, it’s a good idea to take the path of being a person of physical appearance.
Inner research is important, but the understanding of objective things is even more important.
Both should be taken together and one cannot exist without the other.
Chen Yuan waved his hand and helped these little guys up: "Since you want to learn, I won't be stingy about not teaching you. I just hope that you will learn this method and use it in the right way. If you are righteous and righteous, you will not be wrong.
Anti-demon, this kind of behavior is not advisable, do you understand?"
Obtaining the Tao and being righteous without turning against the devil means that after you have learned these principles and methods, you must use them on the righteous path. Don't follow the evil and heretical ways just because you cannot achieve some goals.
"Disciple understands."
Chen Yuan knew what consequences his method would have if he taught it to these little guys.
However, he absolutely does not want people like scientific madmen to appear among his disciples.
Because the so-called scientific madmen have basically eliminated the existence of human nature. In order to achieve their own experimental purposes, such people no longer regard people as human beings.
This is also an evil path.
The investigation of things to achieve knowledge requires both scientific knowledge and conscience. The two cannot be neglected.
Chen Yuan said to everyone: "In this case, I will teach you a fundamental principle of the method of studying things to achieve knowledge. That is, studying things to achieve knowledge should not only lead to knowledge, but also to conscience. If you only achieve one, you are not correct, and you are not my student.
Chen Yuan nodded: "Of course, if any of you lose your conscience in the end, don't blame me for being cruel, sir. I will never let you learn my knowledge to harm the country and the people."
Don't blame Chen Yuan for repeatedly mentioning this point, because countless painful lessons from later generations have taught Chen Yuan that science itself is not good or bad, but scientific people must have a conscience.
Scientists without conscience will inevitably lead mankind to slide into the abyss of destruction.
For example, the use of poisonous gas, the abuse of viruses, the use of chemical products, etc.
Of course, this not only involves scientific people, but also the entire country and society.
But Chen Yuan can't control the country and society now. All he can do is let these little guys establish a good scientific concept from the beginning.
To study things and gain knowledge is not to destroy the world, but to create it.
After the vaccination was done, Chen Yuan began to explain to these little guys what it means to study things and achieve knowledge.
That is, what are scientific learning methods, how to understand the world, and what purpose should we study with, etc.
In short, Chen Yuan has now understood.
Nine-year compulsory education competition is high!
