"What a coincidence."The protocol officer said with a smile:"Our boss has built a Gewu Institute in Ye County, which specializes in physics, arithmetic, geometry, geology, hydraulics and other subjects. Recently, several great scholars have rushed to Ye County because the Institute of Gewu Academy is going to do some big experiments."

"Gewu Academy, a big experiment?"

Chai Jin, the former royal family and green forest tycoon, felt more and more that his brain was not enough.

"Check things……"Chai Jin thought about it and said with a smile:"This seems to be Er Cheng's theory?"

Er Cheng was the two leaders of the"Luo School" who gradually became famous during the reign of Shenzong, and Cheng Yi became the emperor's master during the reign of Zhe Zong. , Luo Xue became a prominent school.

However, during Huizong's reign, because he disliked the old party and supported the new party, Wang Anshi's Jing Gong New School was still the most recognized new school by the imperial court. Cai Jing and others in power were all former members of the New Party, so they naturally respected the new school.

In addition, there are Zhou Dunyi's"Lian Xue" and Zhang Zai's"Guan Xue", etc., which are all prominent schools in the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty.

Among them, Zhang Zai established his mind for the heaven and earth, established his destiny for the people, and continued his unique knowledge for the saints. After his death, he became a name through the ages, inspiring those who came after him.

However, all doctrines died out or were banned during the reign of Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty.

Only the Neo-Confucianism of Er Cheng and Zhou Dunyi was passed down and was carried forward by Zhu Xi.

Zhu Xi was also the first person to be granted the title of Duke for his achievements in academic writings.

And he collected a lot of royalties and became extremely rich.

And his performance as an official is not that good either.

Neo-Confucianism began to become a prominent school at the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty and occupied an absolute dominant position at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty. It became even more prominent in the Ming Dynasty until the emergence of Yangming's theory of mind.

Xinxue was dominant from the early to the middle of the Qing Dynasty, but there were quite a few pseudo-Xinxue believers who only talked about following the heart in everything and were not as rigid as the Neo-Confucianists. As a result, it indirectly promoted the degeneration and corruption of the Qing Dynasty's officials, which is also ridiculous..

From the middle to the end of the Qing Dynasty, Neo-Confucianism returned and many Neo-Confucian believers appeared.

From this we can draw the conclusion that at the end of the dynasty, Neo-Confucianism was promoted.

Maybe it's because there's really nothing else to do with it.

Brothers Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi divided human nature into"the nature of destiny" and"the nature of temperament". They believed that the nature of destiny is the"nature of poor origin", that is, the embodiment of the original"natural principle" of the universe, which is supremely good and infinite. The specific content of evil is feudal moral norms such as benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust. The nature of temperament is caused by qi, which is the source of evil.

Therefore, they said that feudal morality was determined by"natural principles" and existed in human nature a priori. They believe that"the distinction between superior and inferior, the meaning of superiority and inferiority, is the right thing to do." Thus feudal morality was made absolute.

Ercheng also started from the theory of human nature and distinguished the heart into"human heart" and"Tao heart". He believed that"the human heart is only dangerous and human desires; the Tao heart is only weak and the law of nature"""The opposition between"human heart" and"Tao heart" is the opposition between"human desire" and"natural principle". If the heart is blinded by human desire, it will forget the natural principle. Therefore, people must practice"respect""、"The cultivation skills of"Jiyi" and"preserving the principles of nature and eliminating human desires" can be achieved in order to achieve the moral realm of"being one with the principles". The Neo-Confucianism of these two people is not that simple.

There are still many specious aspects in physics, which are far-fetched by later generations. Attached, I think that Chinese Confucianism also talks about the arguments of physical investigation.

But Er Cheng is a Confucian, and his main academic achievement is to establish morality, establish human desire, eliminate human desire, preserve morality, and the world will be governed. , is the Great Harmony. From the emperor to the Confucian scholars, to the officials, to the common people, everyone can become a saint. China will be a sage inside and a king outside. All barbarians will obey, and all its own problems will be fundamentally solved.

As for arithmetic, inquiry, physics, geometry , logic...

Even if there is vague thinking in their theories, they have no foundation in mathematics and physics, and no support from logic. How can they do research?

This is the same as discovery but not invention.

Wang Lun's Liangshan developed greatly and encompassed more than a dozen states. There were various schools in prefectures and counties, and free teaching was available everywhere. This quickly attracted the attention of Confucian scholars from all over the country. Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, teaching without distinction, and everyone learning something, this is what Confucianism says The world they dreamed of.

Unexpectedly, a grass bandit leader actually went first!

Before the Battle of Yuncheng, even if there were Confucian scholars who were interested, they would not come. There was no way, under the rule of thieves and bandits, they still cherished their feathers.

Here they come. , what should I do if I become a"rebellion" or"a traitor"?

After the Battle of Yuncheng, the imperial court negotiated peace with Liangshan, and had a vague intention of recruiting Liangshan to peace... Many people even heard about it from senior officials in the court. It's similar to recruiting people.

The imperial court wanted to recruit people, and there were measures to recruit people.

But Liangshan refused. Originally, he was slapped in the face. But Liangshan showed his goodwill and asked for a batch of supplies that were not worth mentioning in the eyes of the court. In the eyes of the imperial court, the Ten Jiedu and an army of more than 100,000 people should be Liangshan's intention to recruit troops, but they need higher bargaining chips. Of course Zhao Ji was not happy. It happened that Tong Guan went to attack Fangla and left Liangshan alone. So in many cases, In people's eyes, Liangshan is considered a gray area. It does not count as recruiting people, nor does it count as continuing to rebel (cdbh) and waiting for the results. Under such circumstances, it is not a big problem to travel to Liangshan and visit the legendary free school. So... During this period of time, Liangshan was really visited by a large number of great scholars. The most famous ones were disciples of Cheng Yi. The great scholars Yang Shi, Xie Liangzuo, and Huan Guo all visited Liangshan. These three people were all Cheng Yi. His direct disciples had countless disciples across the country and were extremely famous. Among them, Yang Shi also received great attention in the Southern Song Dynasty. This person later persuaded Zhao Gou, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, to withdraw Wang Anshi, the representative of the new school, from the Confucian Temple, and added Er Cheng He and Zhou Dunyi and others entered the Confucius Temple, which shows that its influence is indeed not small. Of course, there are also practical considerations. Wang Anshi's own governance had many flaws, but his reforms had two major results. First, the fiscal revenue during the Xihe period increased. skyrocketed, an increase of nearly 30 million guan. It also laid a solid foundation for Hui Huizong's squandering. The second was Yuanfeng's restructuring and the adoption of the art of generals, which unified the name and reality of the soldiers and generals, laying the foundation for the strength of the Western Army. To I know that before Wang Anshi's reform, the Northwest Forbidden Army also lost every battle against Xixia. Anyway, they lost more and won less. Although they lost in the Five-Road Expedition to Xia, they lost due to Shenzong's eagerness for quick success and instant benefits, which had little to do with Wang Anshi's deployment. It was precisely because they had sufficient finances that they let go of the Western Army. As a result, the Xixia people were targeted for the next few decades. If not for the sudden rise of the Jin Kingdom, the Song army would have been able to destroy Xia. After the Xia Dynasty was destroyed, the Western Army, which was capable of conquering and fighting, was slowly deployed to Hebei, and was able to compete with the Liao Kingdom. The result was the sudden rise of the Jin Kingdom, and the Song and Jin Dynasties had a maritime alliance. Zhao Ji is eager to regain Youyan and achieve unparalleled achievements, and Tong Guan is also eager to be rewarded for his meritorious service. As a result, the exhausted and under-prepared Western Army was pushed to the front line. As a result, Yelu Dashi and Guo Yaoshi defeated the Western Army. Generally speaking, Wang Anshi's reform was evaluated as a failure by later generations, but during the years of Song Shenzong and Huizong, he received a strong dose of medicine, which turned the Song Dynasty's national fortunes, which had been declining and showing signs of decline, back up. However, Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty was afraid that Wang Anshi would become more powerful if the reforms were even slightly effective, so he quickly expelled the old man and welcomed a few old party members back to the court to check and balance. Seeing that it was no longer possible, they quickly appointed the new party to suppress the old party. He was a master of imperial tricks, but he completely left behind the seeds of irreconcilable conflict between the two parties, and the complete split of the scholar-bureaucrat group in the Song Dynasty. After Shenzong's death, the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao came to power. This woman completely overturned the New Deal, invited Sima Guang and other old parties back, abolished the new law, and dismissed all new parties from office and exiled them. When Song Zhezong came to power, he welcomed back the new party and drove away the old party. From then on, the scholar-bureaucrats were divided into the Yuanfeng party who supported the new law and the Yuanyou party who supported the old law. The two factions were constantly fighting among themselves, causing the court to be in chaos. Now that Cai Jing is in power and the New Party is in trouble, Li Gefei, who is like a member of the Yuanyou Party, has been driven back to his hometown and dismissed from office to live in leisure. There are thousands of similar officials. It would be strange if the Northern Song Dynasty did not decline. When Cai Jing came to power, the new learning became prominent again. Members of the Luoxue Party like Yang Shi could only remain in the opposition, hiding their hatred. Otherwise, they would not come to Liangshan easily. It's also a bit of a warning to those in power. Why have rebels historically failed? Without the support of the gentry, it was impossible to establish a political power. The support of the gentry included not only financial, material and human resources, but also support in doctrine and public opinion. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) During the Guangwu period of the Han Dynasty, prophecy was a prominent art at that time. In order to fight against the prophecies of other forces, Liu Xiu had to recruit famous prophecy magicians in the world and make up prophecies himself. Fight against Wang Lang and others. Whether or not there is a governing doctrine is extremely critical and important. Like the Mongols, they were powerful in force for a while, but they were a backward civilization. When it came to China, although they did not attach great importance to Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism inevitably had an impact on their governance model. When it came to West Asia, it promulgated the Tianfang religion. When it came to Eastern Europe, it believed in God. Civilizations from all over the world had an impact on Mongolia. As a result, Mongolia was divided into pieces, and political powers that were consistent with the local civilization were established in various places. In China it is Yuan. In Rakshasa it is the Golden Horde. The West Asian region is the Tianfang-like Ilkhanate and so on. This method of absorbing other civilizations was also the helplessness of lower civilizations. It also caused the division of Mongolia itself, and it has never been unified since then. Whether there is civilization, core inheritance, and doctrine is indeed very important. It is not as simple as I thought.

Liangshan did not reject the arrival of these foreign Confucian scholars, but also welcomed them.

But Yang Shi and others were still quite disappointed.

Wang Lun came to see them and was very polite and enthusiastic.

But it's different from what they imagined[]

Master Wang had no idea or plan to invite them to give lectures or establish an academy.

He only said that if he wanted to stay and give lectures, Liangshan would not be embarrassed and would also provide some support.

Running College, Liangshan OfficialForget about giving lectures.

They were not even hired to teach in Liangshan schools.

While the great scholars were depressed, they were also accompanied by the concierge for the tour.

The due courtesy is still there.

Wang Lun had already planned to abandon the prominent position of Confucianism.

Something can stay.

Pay attention to benevolence, filial piety, trust, righteousness, and loyalty. These doctrines are correct.

Of course, the old master didn’t make so many twists and turns.

He just likes to talk about the national affairs of the time, the exchanges between countries, as well as the way to study and be a human being.

Mainly focusing on ethics, he is an old master who loves to talk about teaching students.

If you want to be benevolent, then benevolence will come to an end.

Simple and straightforward.

How could there be so many twists and turns?

Confucianism became a prominent school and influenced East Asia for two thousand years. In the end, it became rigid and conservative without any controversy. After two thousand years, countless top smart people in China were unable to develop new doctrines and could only patch things up within the framework of Confucianism. This is the tragedy of China. , is also the tragedy of Confucianism.

Wang Lun was definitely going to abandon his exclusive emphasis on Confucianism.

The theories of each school can not only be spread, but also become the content of future civil service examinations.

Taking away the exclusive status of Confucianism, giving up Confucianism as the only content of scientific examinations, and even abolishing the imperial examinations are all things Wang Lun has already thought about and will definitely do.

Yang Zhu, Mohism, Legalism, Confucianism, and Taoism are all acceptable, and each has its own unique content. Together, they constitute Chinese civilization.

It also includes foreign theories, which are all eclectic. No civilization is truly independent and unaffected by foreign civilizations.

There are also such civilizations, such as the indigenous people on the Pacific Islands and the indigenous civilizations of North America.

Civilizations that cannot conflict, communicate, and learn from each other are destined to slowly die out or stagnate.

This is the origin of Gewu College in Laizhou.

On the surface, it is an academy established for the purpose of studying things and cultivating technical talents.

But there are various theories, and the real core is two words: investigation of things!

Everything is for the sake of investigating things!

This college was originally headed by the Department of Construction and the Department of Mining, led by the Department of Transportation and Construction.There is also strong support from the Department of Trade.

These departments are all involved in construction and construction. The Trading Department hopes that the Construction Department can create more and better products, and of course it fully supports it.

As for Wang Lun's fueling the flames, there is no need to mention it.

For the purpose of gewu, arithmetic and geometry, physics, chemistry, and geology, these subjects are the most important components of gewu academy.

In addition, there are various courses such as astronomy, hydraulics, Taoism, Mohism, and Dharma, as well as logic, philosophy, etc.

The students are all outstanding students who graduated from intermediate schools in Liangshan prefectures and counties.

In Chinese, arithmetic, physics, and geometry, you must get the best scores in order to have a chance to enter.

As for professors, it's even harder.

Wang Lun searched all over the world and found some barely qualified professors.

Some are experts in mathematics, which is best to find.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there were great mathematicians like Zu Chongzhi. China’s mathematical foundation was not weak, but there were no mathematical works that were passed down in an orderly manner, and there was no university inheritance. Everything was studied based on interest.

It is not surprising that China is so big and has so many smart people.

But most smart people study Confucianism and do academic work in the circle drawn by Confucius. This is really sad.

Even so, there was Zu Chongzhi before him, and there were also great mathematicians such as Chu Yan, Yang Hui, and Jia Xian in the Northern Song Dynasty, especially Jia Xian. His Jia Xian triangle and multiplication method were all extremely advanced mathematical theories at that time. By the Southern Song Dynasty, Qin Jiushao came out. His"Nine Chapters of the Book of Mathematics" is also an epoch-making work, with many excellent mathematical theorems and concepts.

Unfortunately, there are no universities or specialized colleges to study and consolidate these mathematical theories.

What a waste of the talents of these smart people.

It's certainly different now.

Liangshan was highly rewarded, and the Song Dynasty really had no shortage of top smart people studying mathematical theory.

There are also many disciples of several great mathematicians.

Wang Lun's only requirement for them was to use concise vernacular language to explain mathematics. Therefore, before taking up their posts, these great mathematicians had to learn the vernacular version of the Chinese textbook compiled by Wang Lun.

Geometry is also a branch of mathematics, and there are also experts who study geometry.

There are also geology and water conservancy, all of which are studied by experts.

Before Wang Lun traveled through time, he thought that China was a blank slate.

The disadvantage is that these theories are originally obscure and difficult to understand, and coupled with the explanations in classical Chinese, they are simply difficult to understand.

They all had to rewrite their theories in vernacular, and then remove some metaphysical parts to form teaching materials for each theory.

Isn’t this college’s framework ready?.
