Chapter 80 Wen Ruo Four Virtues
What is meant by words as the voice of the heart? Xun Yu’s explanation is based on the analysis of "Yi" to express his own ambitions and the principles he follows!
Xun Yu innovatively proposed to integrate the Five Elements into Yuan, Heng, Li, and Zhen, and gave it a deeper meaning. He also clearly extended it to the virtues of a gentleman, saying that only those who abide by such standards can be called The gentleman.
?At the same time, it is also proposed that the mission of a gentleman is: transforming things, obeying the sky, benefiting the people, and regulating customs. Finally, King Wen and Shang Zhou are used to allude to the administration of the government, indicating that only a monarch with the four virtues can prosper, and a monarch without the four virtues will surely decline.
?At this time, Xun Yu was like an unsheathed sword, showing its edge...
There was an uproar in the audience, firstly because Xunyu’s remarks were very novel and very targeted in criticizing the government, and partly because the contrast between Xunyu at this time and his previous performance was so great that many people couldn’t believe it...
Because before, when Xun Yu was still young, Xun Yu''s father Xun Yu was afraid of the eunuchs, so he asked Xun Yu to marry the daughter of Tang Heng, the minister of the Central Committee!
?It is a wife, not a concubine. In the Han Dynasty, if the male master was not at home, the wife could have the right of life and death over the family members and finances, but the concubine was just like a plaything and had no rights.
?It is absolutely unacceptable if this kind of thing is done to other people, especially those who claim to be the poster children of the Qing Dynasty. Are you kidding me? If I marry a **** and a regular servant, I will not be able to keep my reputation for the rest of my life.
?So, according to logic, Xun Yu must at least marry into a noble family who was also a member of the Qing Dynasty. How could he bring a eunuch''s daughter into his family?
??But Xun Yu just got married quietly and submissively!
?While people lamented that Xun Yu''s father, Xun Kui, was short-sighted and ruined not only his own reputation but also Xun Yu''s involvement, they also believed that Xun Yu was actually a weak man who could not achieve anything.
Unexpectedly, today, Xun Yu on the high platform not only showed no signs of timidity at all, but actually said such shocking words...
Fei Qian was not surprised by what Xun Yu said. After all, according to history, Xun Yu did what he said today, following the four virtues of a gentleman, and he violated the four virtues when Cao Cao At that time, when there was a move to ban Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he expressed his clear opposition, and was killed by Cao Cao directly or indirectly...
A gentleman with a great inner world, Fei Qian saw Xun Yu''s performance and labeled Xun Yu like this in his heart.
But some people don’t see it that way, and feel that Xun Yu may be trying to please others today.
An old man stood up, arched his hands arrogantly, and said in a loud voice: "Those who do it have natural health. Manpower is limited, but natural health is infinite. Only the saints can follow it. King Wen is good, and he can use the law of heaven. Shang Evil is the body of the law and heaven. This is the impermanence of heaven and its changes are infinite. How can man speak of the four virtues?"
?When everyone took a look, they realized that this old man was actually Xun Wang, the younger brother of Xun Shuang and the fifth dragon of the Xun family.
Xun Wang was originally the person who arranged the first lecture. According to his seniority, he was Xun Yu''s uncle. According to his qualifications, he was also a person who studied Confucian classics carefully. He was originally well prepared, but he was unexpectedly replaced by Xun Yu. Although he was The head of the family, Xun Shuang, gave the order, but he was not happy after all, so he was the first to stand up and criticize -
Moreover, what Xun Wang said was more in line with Confucian concepts. His general idea was that human changes cannot keep up with the changes of heaven. Only saints, the so-called emperors, can follow the changes of heaven. King Wen imitated the effectiveness of heaven. He truly understood the meaning of Heaven''s Way, so he succeeded. However, Shang Zhou only imitated the appearance of Heaven''s Way and failed to understand the spirit of Heaven''s Way, so he failed. Therefore, Heaven''s Way is changing all the time. The emperor and the people should comply with Heaven''s Way instead of making mistakes for Heaven''s Way. Restrictions, how can there be any restrictive theory of the Four Virtues?
After all, in the Confucian concept, the emperor represents heaven and is divine. Whether it is King Wen or King Zhou of Shang, they are all emperors. The only difference is whether they can understand the will of God. Those who can understand will naturally do well, and those who cannot understand and only learn the appearance God will naturally find a way to replace someone, and someone like Xun Yu who imposes four virtues on the emperor, in the eyes of the older generation like Xun Wang, is as absurd as imposing restrictions on God. As soon as Xun Wang finished speaking, there were noisy echoes. Apparently, many people still agreed with Xun Wang''s words.
Xun Yu on the stage also bowed his hands to Xun Wang in salute, almost without pause, and immediately followed Xun Wang''s words: "The saint of heaven is sincere and has no rest, cannot be shaped by heaven, but can only be used by heaven, so Qian Yangjiao Yao, each has its own place. A gentleman is responsible for observing the heavens and moving the heavens downwards. Every word and action must be like this. According to the four virtues, if you are vigilant at night, you will be blameless in your actions. "
- God is sacred. You cannot imitate the shape of God. You can only understand God’s intention. Therefore, each intersection in Qian Gua has its own place. Just like a gentleman, you must know how to understand God’s intention in order to operate. Regarding the objects in the world, the theory of the Four Virtues I proposed is to enable gentlemen to have a standard to be alert to their words and deeds at all times, so that they will not make any mistakes.
Xun Yu very cleverly transformed the Four Virtues from the arrogant and arrogant demands made by Heaven in Xun Wang''s mouth to a code that serves as a warning for a gentleman''s own behavior. In this way, it naturally fits with the righteousness of Confucianism, and there is no need for it. Give Xun Wang a target to continue attacking.
Xun Wang snorted and couldn''t find any flaws, so he sat down calmly.
Xun Shuang did not enter the venue at this time, but stood outside the door and listened quietly. When he heard this, he smiled, turned and left - indeed, choosing Xun Yu was not wrong. Since Xun Yu had already calmed down the scene, there was no need to continue. Worried.
?Fei Qian in the field looked at Zao Zhi beside him who was listening in rapt attention, with a look of admiration on his face, but he was very troubled as he didn''t understand it.
But even so, Fei Qian also understood that this initial speech meant that Xun Yu would be the focus of discussion among the nobles along with his remarks about the Four Virtues. Naturally, this reputation would be gained by people who must turn over the pages. Soaring upwards...
Sigh, when will I be able to soar higher...
Why should we talk about the Book of Changes? Wouldn''t it be good to talk about some Marxist-Leninist thoughts? Anyway, I had to memorize it for a few days just to get sixty points...
It’s really not possible to talk about metaphysics and metaphysics, but the theory of the unity of opposites and contradictions is fine. At least what I learned from Hegel and Marx can be shown off in a small way...
Fei Qian was thinking about it, and suddenly his expression changed. Xun Yu has been talking for so long. Will there be a break between classes later to give him some time to relax?
?? I drank two more bowls of corn porridge in the morning, and now it’s all gone. Something is wrong...
Xun Yu followed the Four Virtues, but in the end he was tricked to death by the Four Virtues. Otherwise, at his level, as long as he did not oppose Cao Cao''s proclaimed emperor, naturally Cao Cao would not touch him. It''s a pity that he just couldn''t get around the hurdle in his heart... In fact, ancient people Sincerity, the vows I made will never change in my life... Where is it like now, not to mention ordinary white men, even the court will fall out when they say it, 60 has become 65, and some people say that 70 can still do it...
