On the twentieth day of the lunar month, Lin Quan gave the students the last class of the year, in this class, Lin Quan rarely mentioned several great Confucians at the beginning of the country, first of all, the first was the Marquis of Qingyuan, whether it was academic identity or status, it was enough for Lin Quan to be the first to introduce him.

The Marquis of Qingyuan supported Cheng Zhu, focusing on respecting the poor, and believed that any student who wanted to learn from a saint must follow these four words from beginning to end, from top to bottom.

Since he supports Cheng Zhu, he is naturally against King Lu, and the Marquis of Qingyuan has repeatedly opposed empty talk about life in his "Speculative Record". He believes that empty talk about life is the same as talking about clean talks, and it will only harm things and mislead the country.

And this is contrary to the purpose of the Holy Gate, which is to learn from what is to be done, not to be done in vain.

Of course, the difference between the Marquis of Qingyuan and other Confucian scholars is that he believes that Confucian scholars should not only learn the six arts, such as astronomy, geography, canals, and the art of war.

On this basis, the Marquis of Qingyuan therefore criticized Lu Wang's psychology, as far as astronomy is concerned, the stars are secondary, and the seven politics are running, and you must look at the book and map to understand, if it is purely based on conscience, can you realize it?

Therefore, Lu Wang's heart is biased, and in general, it is not as stable as poor reason.

In addition to these miscellaneous studies, the Marquis of Qingyuan also studied the knowledge of the Western Kingdom, and he had read the Xirong textbooks translated in the last years of the Wei Dynasty, and believed that the geometry of Xirong was far more exquisite than the arithmetic of the nine chapters in the argumentation of the Pythagorean method.

In addition, there is also the astronomical map, which most people in Confucianism believe that the sky is not as good as the armillary sky, but the old map of the armillary sky is gradually not similar to the sky, as observed by the Marquis of Qingyuan, the Xirong astronomical map is more precise.

The Marquis of Qingyuan is not limited by geography, and pays attention to learning for use, as long as they can do their best in physics, Zhou Yushi is the knowledge they should learn.

After Lin Quan finished speaking, he introduced the side of the Marquis of Qingyuan who agreed with Lu Wang's learning. The Marquis of Qingyuan thinks that Lu Xiangshan is a great man, the discussion is very high, and the atmosphere is magnificent, if a beginner reads Lu Shu, he can open his mind. If Lu Xiangshan can teach people to read, how can his status be lower than that of Zhu Zi.

Regarding this point, Lin Quan added that this is because the Marquis of Qingyuan did not read Lu Xiangshan's anthology seriously, and Lu Xiangshan also emphasized reading, so whether it is respect for virtue or Taoism, you must read.

The Marquis of Qingyuan thought that Wang Yangming added a good son in the middle of Zhizhi, which was extremely meritorious to the later learning. In this way, the scholar was prevented from being known to be worldly and well-behaved.

"Zhou Zi's lord is quiet, Zhang Zi's all things are one, Cheng Zhu's residence respects the poor, Hu Anding's righteousness governs affairs, Lu Xiangshan's determination to defend righteousness and benefit, there are Wei Xue Wenqing, Hu Yugan's lord is quiet, Zhan Ganquan's everywhere for the body to recognize the principles of heaven, Chen Baisha's natural qi nourishment, Wang Yangming's conscience, all the so-called introductory work, can all be the way."

Lin Quan said what he thought was the most important thing in the speculative record, and then asked his disciples to write it down, these days, Lin Quan had already explained the thoughts of these great Confucians, and this time he would make a summary with the Marquis of Qingyuan.

After Lin Quan finished speaking, he evaluated the Marquis of Qingyuan as the first pure Confucian at the beginning of the country. The Marquis of Qingyuan is not confined to the view of the door, and can make comments for the families fairly, which is where these students want to learn.

After Lin Quan finished talking about the Marquis of Qingyuan, he talked about Bai Dongyuan next, Bai Dongyuan was a person that Lin Quan didn't want to talk about, but had to talk about.

Bai Dongyuan this person, although not a ghost house, but do more than the ghost house to make the dynasty hate, in the Shengming years, Yi'an prefect to the mountains and forests to recommend the seclusion, when the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi heard that he was a great Confucian, so she personally issued a special edict to conquer, but Bai Dongyuan resolutely refused.

In the Dahua years, Emperor Wen issued an edict to seek talents, when the Tianguan Mansion Otsuka Zai recommended to the true Confucianism in the sea, Bai Dong originally excused himself from illness to resign, and then this directly did not eat to resist, when the officers and soldiers were forced to set off, he drew his sword again, in order to kill himself Mingzhi, seeing him like this, the court had to give up.

Later, during the period of Chuixian, Emperor Wen toured the west and named Bai Dong to meet him, but he refused because of old age and weakness, and then locked his door and never went out of the room again.

It was not until his death that the protégé opened the door and took out his body and buried it. What Bai Dongyuan did made Yu Ting very hateful, if Bai Dongyuan walked heresy, or colluded with the ghost mansion, they could still find an excuse to kill Bai Dongyuan, but Bai Dongyuan just showed his integrity, so that they couldn't do it.

Lin Quan knew that Bai Dongyuan was a little troublesome, so he tried his best not to talk about some things that Bai Dongyuan was not suitable to talk about, and mainly talked about Bai Dongyuan's repentance and self-rehabilitation.

This is Bai Dongyuan's experience after many years of study, he believes that the chaos in the world all lies in the evil of the people's hearts, and the evil of the people's hearts is because of the academic obscurity, and the academic obscurity is the good fashion at that time.

Therefore, the most urgent task at the moment is to explain scholarship so as to remind the people of the world to be strict with righteousness and benefit, to promote the principle of normality, to refrain from empty talk, and to practice it steadily. If one person does this, then one person is Kangping, if everyone is like this, they can go to Tang Yu's world.

And his orthodoxy is repentance and reform, he believes that people's hearts are good, but because they are covered by temperament and bad customs, they lose their nature, just like pearls thrown into the dust and contaminated with dust.

This repentance and reformation requires perseverance in order to see clearly, which lacks the epiphany of Yao Jiang's lineage, so as not to fall into mad Zen.

Bai Dongyuan also argued that all the great Confucians talk about nothing more than repentance and reform, whether it is to be a new citizen or to conscience, it is all external, and it is not said that it is broken, and repentance and reformation just breaks this key.

Lin Quan thinks that this statement is extremely pertinent, and it is Chen Ru since he talked about it.

Lin Quan finished introducing the two families, and he didn't talk about it anymore, he had already demonstrated the way of the inner sage and the outer king, and then Lin Quan opened a book list, one is to cure the heart, and most of them are Confucian books of predecessors. As for the governance category, there are historical books such as Taishi Gongshu and Zizhi Tongjian, as well as some astronomy and geography, and the most surprising thing for students is that there are Xirong books translated by A Xueli and others.

Ding Yuli told Lin Quan that they could find other books, but these Xirong books were generally not circulated in the world, and they had no way to learn them.

Lin Quan said that when they came back after the Chinese New Year, they would have books, and he would give the saints and ask the saints to give them books.

The students said goodbye to Lin Quan one by one, Ding Yuli left last, and Ding Yuli said to Lin Quan, "Master, after my two brothers heard about your lecture, they wanted to worship you as a teacher, but I don't know what the master thinks." ”

Lin Quan naturally did not refuse to come, and told Ding Yuli to let his two brothers think about it, if this was under his own door, it would be a long way.

Ding Yuli hesitated for a moment, they couldn't forget their grandfather's last life, but under the Lin Quanmen, they could learn the true meaning of the Holy Gate.

Lin Quan said that there was still a lot of time, so that their brothers would come back after thinking about it, and they were not willing to accept that they would come to the students when they were hot-headed.

After Ding Yuli nodded and left, Lin Quan looked at the empty academy, but he was a little melancholy.

At this time, Yuan Lihua stood behind Lin Quan and said to Lin Quan, "Husband, why don't you talk about Mr. Konghe and Mr. Wei Dao (Liu Xin's honorific title) today?" ”

Lin Quan looked around and said to Yuan Lihua, "This is the place where two gentlemen preach, if I don't talk about the two of them, how dare I lecture here, but now these students are mixed, and it is not the time to pass on this heart." ”

Yuan Lihua nodded and told Lin Quan that if the two gentlemen were in the Spirit of Heaven and saw Lin Quan lecturing and enlightening the Tao, they would be very grateful.

Speaking of this, Yuan Lihua chuckled and said, "Now some students privately call you Mr. Baishui, husband, you might as well take a number." ”

"That's called White Water, but I haven't said a word yet." Lin Quan touched his head, looked at Yuan Lihua and smiled, Yuan Lihua did have the words, but he didn't.

He once asked Jiang Xingchu, and Jiang Xingchu said that the word he took was in line with Siyong, not the word Quan.

This matter was delayed like this, and Yuan Lihua didn't dare to choose a word for her husband, so she had to record it in her heart, and asked Chen Zhiqi to help choose a name when the time came.

On the twenty-second day of the lunar month, Lin Quan had a headache again, Shangguan Dai Gao came to visit again, the reason for the visit was very simple, he had no money, this time he came to Lin Quan to play the autumn breeze, so as to prepare for the New Year.

Lin Quan asked someone to take fifty taels of silver for him, Shangguan Dai Gao was a little unhappy, and said to Lin Quan, "Brother-in-law, this seems to be a bit less." ”

Lin Quan told Shangguan Dai Gao that he is now such a family, and the cost of the New Year is only thirty taels of silver, and Shangguan Dai Gao alone, fifty taels is more than enough, if Shangguan Dai Gao dislikes less, he can reunite in the academy.

Shangguan Dai Gao thought about it, accepted the silver, said thank you casually, and then left here, Lin Quan thought that there was still a place to get Shangguan Dai Gao now, so bear with him for the time being.

Lin Quan stopped lecturing, and spent all day reciting poems with his three wives, playing the piano and painting, but lived the general life of a fairy couple.

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, after Lin Quan's family ate in the dining room, when the family kept a vigil and chatted, Mrs. Chen said to Chen Jingjing and the three of them, "Tomorrow, everyone is fine, go to Guanyin Temple to worship Guanyin." ”

Chen Jingjing's faces suddenly turned red, and Chen Jingjing said to Mrs. Chen, "Mom, you too." ”

"My son, did my mother say something wrong again?"

Chen Jingjing lowered her head and did not speak, and at this time Mrs. Chen continued, "This matter of inheriting incense is justified, Jingjing, what can I be ashamed of." ”

Chen Jingjing's face turned even redder, at this time Jiang Xingchu said that there was no need to rush this matter, they had to take their time, anyway, they were still young.

Lin Quan said that it was okay to burn incense, and by the way, he could tell the Da Zizai layman that Le Qiong was in charge on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.

Lin Quan diverted the topic so cleverly, and everyone talked about Le Qiong as the head.
