Chapter 160 : The unity of knowledge and action
“Zhuzi!!!”
Ye Ning opened his mouth, but it made the short-bearded old man angry enough.
His face was instantly as dark as the bottom of a pot, and his white eyebrows couldn’t help shaking his face, showing how angry he was.
“The child is ignorant, so I look down upon the old man, the yellow-mouthed child, what do you know!”
The old man with short mustache is obviously Master Cheng.
This was the first time he heard this in his life.
Even those people who did not approve of his thoughts were just fighting for reasons, finding loopholes, and then refuting that where there is Ye Ning, he just said that he was not worthy of being a saint.
You know he admires Ye Ning very much.
There is even the idea of passing on legacy to Ye Ning.
He believes that Ye Ning is the best candidate to continue his thinking.
But now he was slapped in the face.
Ye Ning not only won’t continue his thoughts, but also criticized him, and his words are full of disdain.
“Hahaha, Brother Cheng, take a look, even this one doesn’t recognize you!
Mr. Wang, the long-bearded old man, was very relieved.
He was happiest to see Master Cheng being attacked.
It’s as if I beat the opponent all at once.
“Time will tell everything. This son’s talent is rare in the world. It is never under you and me. His judgment is extremely convincing. Brother Cheng, even he doesn’t recognize you. What can you say? Your principles are simply untenable!”
Mr. Wang seemed to have won half of his victory, mocking his old opponent.
“The ignorant child can only talk nonsense, so he is worthy of the old man’s conclusion?”
Master Cheng sneered, of course he would not give up.
“I want to see, he looks down on me like this, what else can I say next!”
Although he was very angry.
But it did not affect the favorability of Ye Ning.
This is the magnanimity of being a sage, the most basic gentleman’s style is still there.
He can jump for Ye Ning’s comments, but he doesn’t hold hate.
If he is a person with a small belly, he can’t become a saint.
If criticism is not free, praise is meaningless.
The reason why he was angry was that he was so optimistic about Ye Ning, but Ye Ning looked down on him 843.
This is his most unacceptable point.
After all, he is an arrogant man.
“Zol, Brother Ye, what you said is really a bit scary. If you dare to say this in the time of Master Cheng in the past, it will inevitably cause verbal criticism from scholars in the world!”
Cai Xianggao was startled, and said with a wry smile.
But he is not surprised, this is exactly Ye Ning’s style, the language is amazing and endless.
“The scholars who were able to criticize me back then show that they are at least very united and still have a heart, but look at what the scholars have become now, the kowtow in front of the fairy gate.”
Ye Ning was a little bit angry as he spoke.
“I thought that the decline of Confucianism and Taoism or some force majeure factor, but I didn’t expect it to be because of this. It’s really ridiculous.”
Cai Xianggao sighed and said.
“It is true that as Brother Ye said, back then, at least scholars could fight and dare to fight, but now
It is hard to mention this matter in one word.
He didn’t want to talk in depth, and asked after a turn of the conversation.
“Brother Ye criticized Master Cheng in such a way, does he not approve of his thinking?
When Master Cheng heard the words, he also showed a look of listening.
Ye Ning nodded naturally and said.
“Should I still recognize him?”
Master Cheng’s expression froze, and he cursed in a low voice: Zhuzi.
Then I heard Ye Ning say again.
“Do you think his thinking is right?”
Cai Xianggao hesitated a little and said.
“Not exactly right, but it does make sense. According to Master Cheng’s rules of etiquette, people in the world do things according to this rule, even if there are minor criticisms, it should generally be feasible.”
Ye Ning sneered and said.
“But the reason why a person is a person is because of the particularity of each person.”
“His so-called etiquette ascending loyalty, filial piety and righteousness to the height of heaven’s law, the ruler wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, the father wants the son to die, and the son has to die!”
“The emperor is the minister, the husband is the wife, and the father is (chcd) the son. I want to ask, why?”
Yes, for what reason.
This is Ye Ning’s question from the heart.
Why did the king let the courtier die, and the courtier had to die?
Why is the son the father’s private property, and life and death are in the hands of the father?
In this dog day world, can there be any human rights?
“Why?”
Cai Xianggao was questioned, but he couldn’t answer.
Because his thoughts are solidified, he has long felt that the king can live and kill, and the father can control the life of his son.
He never thought about why.
He took this for granted.
For what reason, he was completely speechless.
What I want to say, but I can’t say it.
Ye Ning knows that this is the standard thinking of the ancients, and the thinking has been completely imprisoned.
“I ask you, if the king is cruel, he will take care of his courtiers at every turn, do you think such a king is worthy of allegiance?”
Ye Ning patted him on the shoulder.
“No.”
Cai Xianggao replied.
“I ask you, if a father treats his children badly, he adds himself to his child like a livestock, and manipulates his life arbitrarily, do you think this kind of family affection is necessary?”
Ye Ning asked again.
“No.”
Cai Xianggao replied again.
Then he thought.
He seemed to understand what Ye Ning meant.
“The reason why people are human is because they have humanity and human rights. Specific treatment of specific matters and pre-set rules will only confine humanity and human rights. Over time, Master Cheng’s principle of preservation will destroy human desires. From the root of it, It is killing humanity!’
Ye Ning is very serious.
There are no absolutes in the world. This ancient and domineering thinking has hurt many people in the previous life.
Unexpectedly, this world will appear again, even if it is not exactly the same. Compared with the previous life, it may be better, and this life will be more absolute.
Of course, the result was even worse, and the Confucian school was simply abolished.
This is anti-human thinking.
Why must the courtiers listen to the king?
If the king is not worthy of allegiance, should he hang himself on a tree?
Why can a father kill and kill a child?
Every life should be respected. The child is not the property of the father, and neither is the wife. You can’t dispose of it arbitrarily. It is a person, and it should be respected if it is a person.
What Ye Ning said made Master Cheng look ugly.
But he didn’t say anything.
I can’t hear the cynicism of the old opponent on the side.
There was only Ye Ning’s question in his mind.
Why?
Why!
Am I really wrong?
Can’t etiquette replace the principles of heaven, and can’t be a framework for being and doing things?
For a while, he was actually a little confused.
“What Brother Ye said is really deafening, and I admire it.” Cai Xianggao listened, thought for a long time, and then was deeply moved. Then he asked, “So what do you think of Mr. Wang?”
The long-bearded old man stopped talking and suddenly became full of expectations.
He thinks that Ye Ning dislikes Master Cheng so much, he should agree with him very much.
“First tell me what kind of forgiveness he is.”
Ye Ning is ready to understand first.
“Mr. Wang believes that if the world has a heart of forgiveness, then the world will definitely become very beautiful.”
Cai Xianggao thought for a while and said.
“What if you meet a big treacherous and evil person?”
Ye Ning asked.
“Use benevolence and righteousness to influence.”
Cai Xianggao answered without thinking.
Master Wang’s way of benevolence and forgiveness is actually to change the world with morality and enlightenment.
Unlike rigid etiquette, the way of benevolence and forgiveness is actually very tolerant.
Tolerance and forgiveness for everything.
This is good.
But superstition benevolence can influence everything, and everything can be forgiven, which makes Ye Ning feel unhappy.
“Co-author is a rotten scholar!”
Ye Ning’s words successfully made Mr. Wang’s face froze.
“This son, this son””
He was so angry.
A rotten scholar directly stung him.
Like Master Cheng, he has never been said so.
This is simply a huge insult to another person’s personality.
“Hahahaha, rotten man, well said, you are not a rotten man!”
Now it was Master Cheng’s turn to be happy, and fought back.
“So in his eyes, you are just a rotten man. What qualifications do you have to brag in front of the old man? Well said, rotten man, isn’t it? There is a rancid smell when you open your mouth.
Mr. Wang’s face was dark.
He really couldn’t accept Ye Ning’s judgment.
Cai Xianggao also felt that it was not appropriate and hesitated.
“Brother Ye said that, is it a bit too much?”
Ye Ning sneered and said.
“It’s not an exaggeration.”
“The rotten scholars are inadequate and conspiracy!”
“Ren Shu is not wrong, but it is a big mistake to be confident that benevolence and righteousness can influence everything!”
Ye Ning asked about the situation in reality.
“Brother Cai, let me ask you, if it is in reality, would it be useful for you to go up and talk to Xianmen about benevolence and justice?”
Cai Xianggao froze for a moment, then shook his head, it would be a ghost if it works.
“If you talk about benevolence and justice with the Six Nations, will the Six Nations be probated?”
Ye Ning asked again.
Cai Xianggao shook his head repeatedly.
“This is not where he is wrong. Benevolence and righteousness are a good thing. People in the world should really pursue benevolence and justice, but benevolence and justice should be used as their own moral cultivation, and should not be imposed on others. I can understand the way of forgiveness for their own people. , After all, who doesn’t have a chance to make a mistake? But what about the enemy? As long as you kill them all, the only truth is!”
It’s not difficult to find traces of the corrupt Confucianism in history. Ye Ning took a deep breath and said.
“For example, if you are a foreign race, killing my compatriots is a sea of blood and deep hatred. Do you want to talk to them about humanity and justice at this time?”
“For example, for powerhouses like Xianmen and Six Kingdoms, what they see in their eyes is only benefits, and there is no possibility of benevolence and righteousness. If you talk to them about benevolence and righteousness, it is no different from a joke.”
“Following that sentence, benevolence and justice should be self-cultivation as own, and should not be imposed on others.
Ye Ning is really speechless.
The path of Confucianism and Taoism is too crooked.
One talks about rituals and law, the other talks about benevolence and forgiveness. These two flawed thoughts can still survive, and they also indirectly abolished Confucianism and Taoism.
It sounds like a joke.
“In fact, in my opinion, whether the way of benevolence or forgiveness or etiquette, these two ideas, or theories, are meaningless things.”
Ye Ning shook his head and said.
“Since you are a scholar, why bother to stick to your thoughts. There are already enough principles in the sages’ books. Governing the country is not just thinking. Datong society can’t be said through the mouth. If the scholars quarrel about these things every day, then they will be depraved. Up to this point, there is nothing to regret, it is completely deserved.”
Ye Ning doesn’t feel that Confucianism and Taoism are pitiful at all.
It is simply self-inflicted and self-inflicted.
Ridiculous and ridiculous.
“Then Brother Ye thinks, what should scholars do?”
Mr. Wang and Master Cheng raised their ears.
Since Ye Ning judged them vigorously.
Then they are very curious, what is the “Tao” in Ye Ning’s heart.
“How to do?
Ye Ning answered almost without thinking.
“The unity of knowledge and action!”.
