Chapter 16: Li Called the Beast
Suzhou Fuxue is located in Sanyuanfang, opposite to Canglang Pavilion across the street, and was built by Fan Wenzheng of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Legend has it that when he was the governor of Suzhou, he paid for this land and prepared to settle here. According to the custom, after asking the feng shui master to see it, the other party told him that this is a treasure of feng shui, and Fan Gong will settle his family here, and he will definitely produce ministers from generation to generation in the future.
If you change to someone else, you will definitely be happy to build a house and settle down. Fan Gong said that if I settle down here, only my family will be rich. How can there be a school built here, so that all the children of Wuzhong can come to be educated, and everyone will be rich and rich?
So he donated this land and built a large-scale school here.
At that time, Suzhou was still flooded frequently, and it was far less developed than it is today. At the beginning of Fan Gong's establishment, only more than 20 students were enrolled. His subordinates thought that this school was too big, but Fan Zhongyan said confidently: "I'm afraid that I will think it is small." ”
So he invited the famous Mr. Anding, Hu Ming, to be the first teacher, and invited famous scholars to come to Suzhou to give lectures. For a time, the grand occasion was unprecedented, and the impact spread throughout the country. Not only has Suzhou become the hometown of culture and education since then, but it has also led to the construction of government and education across the country. As a result, 'the government has a government school, the state has a state school, and the county has a county school', and culture and education have flourished since then.
Since the Song Dynasty, there have been hundreds of scholars in Wuzhong High School, and there are countless people who have served purple and worshiped the nobles. Suzhou is neither the capital nor a grand event, but it can prosper in the world, thanks to the legacy of Fan Wenzhenggong.
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that Hai Rui placed the first stop of his inspection of Suzhou in Suzhou.
He wants to take Fan Wenzheng Gong as an example.
~~
A day in advance, Cai Guoxi asked Chen Tongzhi and Zhang Tongju to come to Fuxue to keep an eye on it, so as not to stab the basket at this stop.
Cai Zhifu's worries are not unreasonable, because Li Zhen, a professor of Fuxue, is quite unreliable.
It has been half a year since Li Zhen came to Suzhou to take office, and at first he was just late and left early, and then slipped to Kunshan for the night every other day.
Because he had Zhao Gongzi to take care of him, Cai Guoxi only asked people to beat him, and then he turned a blind eye.
But instead of knowing how to restrain himself, this guy became more and more arrogant, and began to spread his heresy among the students.
At first, Cai Guoxi didn't care about it, until the teachers and students of the school came to complain to him, saying that after listening to Li Zhuowu's lecture, he felt that his heart was dirty, and he could no longer be a simple Confucian child.
Cai Guoxi is still a little unconvinced, and feels that these people are too undetermined and can't stand a little spiritual pollution. He went to the school and audited Li Zhen's class. Well, even he, a master of science, almost began to doubt life......
In class, Li Zhen openly denounced the Six Classics, the Analects, and Mencius, not as some sacred texts that are not easy to come, but for the disciples of the saints, recalling the words they heard, either with a head but without a tail, or with a tail without a head, or simply made up and written down into a book.
Later generations of scholars thought that this was all the brilliant theories of the saints, and regarded them as classics. How do you know that most of this is not the essence of the saints at all?
Even if there is a saint who really speaks, it is just a random answer to the matter at that time, so as to point out those disciples who are not enlightened. It's just a matter of facts, and the right medicine is prescribed, how can it be regarded as an eternal truth, and go to carve a boat for a sword?
Therefore, it is obvious that the Six Classics, the Analects, and Mencius have long been used as tools for Taoists to bluff people, and have become a shield for hypocrites to hide, so the rights and wrongs of Confucius must not be taken as right and wrong! You shouldn't learn from Confucius in every word and deed, that is an ugly state.
Cai Guoxi couldn't help it, and reprimanded: "Since it's worthless, why do schools still teach it?" ”
"Its only value is just a tool for fame." Li Zhen said lightly: "The world's scholars 'Yang is Taoism, Yin is wealthy, they are elegant, and they are like dogs', how many of them really believe in it?" ”
The students couldn't help nodding secretly, not for the Golden House, Qian Zhongsu and Yan Ruyu, who reads the words of these hateful sages all day long, far-fetched Cheng Zhu's annotations?
"You talk nonsense!" Cai Guoxi's face was red, and he shouted angrily: "Heaven does not give birth to Zhongni, and eternity is as long as night." You are a little madman, you can say no to it! ”
"Ah, it turns out that God does not give birth to Kongqiu, and the world is dark. It seems that Lao Tzu, the Three Emperors, and the Five Emperors, the sages before Confucius, all walked with lanterns all day long! ”
"Hahaha......" The students laughed heartily, and the battle was over.
"What a bullshit professor, I think it's a barking beast!" Cai Guoxi was so angry that his nose was crooked, but he couldn't argue with Li Zhen, so he had to scold and scold and walk away.
And what he didn't expect was that someone recognized his identity. As a result, the joke of 'Li called ** dish' spread in Suzhou, and Li Zhen became completely popular!
Not only did the students of Fuxue confuse him, but the city was full of Li Zhaomao's 'fans'. Now as soon as Li Zhen started the class, the class was immediately full, and the students of the county school, the people in the township, the old Taoist in the temple, and the monks in the temple also came to audit. Then, within a few days, his fallacies and heresies would spread all over Suzhou.
Later, there was really no room for people in the classroom, so Li Zhen changed to lecture in the square in front of the Confucian Temple. As a result, every time the lecture started, thousands of people came to listen to the lecture, and they were all fascinated and became the brain-dead fans of Li Zhaomao.
It is no exaggeration to say that it only took Li Zhen half a year to overwhelm those literati and famous prostitutes in Suzhou City, and became an academic star who swept Confucianism, Buddhism, and the people, and the first public idol in Suzhou.
He not only opposed false Taoism and criticized Cheng Zhu Lixue, but also attacked the empty talk of Wang Xue's rightists, and vigorously advocated utilitarianism, mercantilism, and people-oriented thinking.
Almost every point of view and every sentence of his life made those Taoist scholars hate it, and they found Cai Guoxi one after another, and the Lord of the Governor must drive this heresy out of Suzhou City.
Who knew that before Cai Guoxi could write the impeachment of Li Zhen, a popular uprising occurred in Suzhou. As a result, it was all thanks to Zhao Hao and Jiangnan Company to help him stabilize the situation and eliminate a catastrophe.
How could Governor Cai not say hello to Zhao Hao's people? He could only mention it euphemistically to Zhao Gongzi if he could let Professor Li restrain himself during the lecture. Zhao Hao agreed very happily, but he didn't know if he didn't tell Li Zhen.
Anyway, after so long, Li Zhen is still his nephew playing lanterns - as usual. Cai Zhifu also had no choice but to let him go.
"Today, at least today, don't stab me at home." Seeing that the governor's sedan chair had arrived at the corner of the street, Cai Guoxi turned his head and glared at Li Zhen viciously. Seeing the untamed look on his face, Cai Zhifu involuntarily softened his tone and said: "The tiger's ass can't be touched, I beg you to succeed, right?" ”
"Come on." Li Zhen rolled his eyes and looked at the sky, not taking the words of the 'vegetable prefect' to heart at all.
