In front of Minglun Hall, two hundred students listened to Hai Rui's deep lecture:

"The second is that you can't 'turn your ears to what is going on outside the window'. Reading and writing only seek sermons and ink scrolls, even if you can write gorgeous and neat articles, it will not be beneficial to the body and mind of the family and country. This kind of nerd who only knows how to read dead books and dead books is even more harmful to the country than the previous category of people! ”

The students secretly spoke, for the first time they heard that nerds are more misleading than corrupt officials.

Li Zhen's eyes lit up again, Hai Rui's point of view coincided with himself.

'This is not scientific, it must be a coincidence...... jealousy made Li Zhen lose his mind and was unwilling to admit it.

"It is in line with the requirements of this institute that schools at all levels should vigorously encourage students to go out of school and learn more about social realities other than books. Combined with farmland and water conservancy, industry and commerce and other livelihood issues, the method of discussion is used to encourage students to speak out about the world's affairs, so as to improve students' ability to analyze and solve practical problems! ”

Hai Rui finally said: "This hospital sends you eight words, 'self-cultivation inside, and self-cultivation outside', learn skills in school, go out of school to do world affairs, use the knowledge learned to solve practical problems for the people, don't become a waste person who just talks empty words and does not do words!" ”

~~

After the completion of Haizhongcheng's lecture, Governor Cai respectfully asked Haigong to test the knowledge of the students.

This was the proper meaning of the question, and Hai Rui readily agreed.

The scribe immediately brought the bookcase, and Hai Rui took the pen and wrote down a line of large characters with silver hooks and iron paintings.

'The desire of the rich and noble'!

"Hiss......" Seeing this topic, everyone gasped.

No one expected that Hai Rui would come up with such a topic.

Isn't he hating the rich, doesn't he regard wealth as floating clouds? Isn't that scientific......

After receiving the questions, the students returned to their classrooms and began to rack their brains to compose. Although Haizhong Cheng is not mentioning the imperial history, he can get his appreciation, not to mention that he will be famous in Jiangnan, and maybe he can participate in the autumn of the next year without taking the exam.

In front of Minglun Hall, Hai Rui said to Cai Guoxi, Li Zhen and others: "Let's not be idle, let's also make an article and demonstrate it to the students." ”

"I'm waiting for the ugliness." Cai Guoxi and others naturally did not dare to refuse.

Everyone entered the Minglun Hall, and the scribe hurriedly set up a table in the hall for the adults.

Hai Rui was not allowed to sit behind the big case, and wrote without thinking, obviously having already finished the draft.

Cai Guoxi and the others also hurriedly sat down, one by one more nervous than the students.

This is just an assignment for students, but it is an exam for them, and it is related to the perception of Zhongcheng University on them.

If the views expressed are contrary to Zhongcheng, then the past three years are really no different from imprisonment.

The officials are all scholars, and no matter how poor they are, they are also old talents, so they naturally know that this topic comes from the "Analects of Liren".

The son said, wealth and nobility are what people want, and they are not obtained by their ways, and they are not everywhere. Poverty and cheapness are the evil of man, and they are not obtained by their ways. Don't go either. ”

To put it simply, everyone wants to be rich, but if they can't get it through proper means, a gentleman can't enjoy it. Everyone wants to get rid of poverty, but if you can't get rid of poverty in the right way, the gentleman will not be safe.

Cai Guoxi thought about it, and felt that this was the trap of the governor, and the title he gave was 'The Desire of the Rich and the Noble', but what he really wanted to express was the second half of the sentence 'If you don't get it with its way, you won't get it anywhere'.

It is to severely crack down on the meaning of stealing and plundering and getting something for nothing.

The more Cai Zhifu thought about it, the more he felt that he had guessed correctly. He was a well-educated scholar of science, and he finalized his ideas, and soon conceived a harshly worded essay against the local tyrants and inferior gentry.

Putting down the pen, Cai Zhifu gently rubbed his wrist, and said in his heart that he could always leave a good impression on Zhongcheng this time, right?

The cow on his side was still biting the pen with a sad face. The result of Niu Yan's review is the same as that of Cai Zhifu, but his bottom of his ass is not clean, but he does not have the confidence to shout and kill, and the article is naturally difficult to deliver.

~~

At that time, Li Zhen also finished writing the article, looked up at the big case, and saw that Hai Rui had already put down his pen and was sitting and looking at himself.

"Professor Li finished writing?" Hai Rui asked lightly.

"What's so hard about that?" Li Zhen chuckled.

"Bring it up, and read it in this house." Hai Rui waved slightly.

"Yes." Li Zhen put the article on the big case, then glanced at Hai Rui's article, and asked with a smile: "Can your subordinates also read Xia Zhongcheng's masterpiece?" ”

"Why not?" Hai Rui nodded, picked up his article, and motioned for Li Zhen to take his own.

The two of them sat next to the big case, sitting and reading each other's articles.

Li Zhen is different from Cai Guoxi, he did not beat around the bush to cater to Hai Rui.

Instead, he took the topic of 'the desire of the rich and noble', and generously defended his personal desires, mercilessly criticizing Zhu Xi's 'destroying people's desires and preserving heavenly principles'.

He said, 'The husband is the heart of man.' A man will have selfishness, and then his heart will see; If you are selfless, you are unintentional. ’

He believed that selfishness is the nature of human beings, and it is the selfish nature that makes people strive for progress.

For example, farmers work hard in pursuit of producing more food and satisfying their appetites. It is precisely in order to satisfy their own selfish desires that the industrial and commercial class strives to produce more products; It is precisely in order to satisfy their selfish desire to be promoted and make a fortune that they study hard.

As a result, Li Zhen put forward the view that 'human desire is the principle of heaven'.

In addition to whipping the old man he hated the most, Li Zhen did not forget to provoke Hai Rui, who made him envious and hateful.

In the article, he also said that "the world is full of friendship", elevating the exchange relationship between people, that is, commercial transactions, to the level of heavenly reason.

So what should the government do? Li Zhen put forward the political proposition of 'doing nothing, ruling silently, and teaching silently'. It is believed that the frequent turmoil in the country is the result of excessive interference by the rulers in socio-economic activities.

He hoped that the imperial court and the government would only maintain national peace and social stability, and that they would not interfere or interfere less in the economic life of society. Let everyone act freely according to his own way, then people's nature of chasing wealth and trading freely will establish a spontaneously regulated, harmonious and long-lasting social and economic order.

That is, 'because its government is not easy to be customary, and it is not easy to follow its nature', it is his ideal 'rule of the people'.

~~

Li Zhen's article saw Hai Rui stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the Cai Governor's Mansion, who was so Taoist, could tolerate such a deviant madman to become the principal of his school.

Hai Rui was not much angry at Li Zhen's proposal of 'rule by the people' and satirizing him, the governor, not to disturb the normal economic order of the locality.

Because first, he is not a dignified governor who is angry with the head of a school. Second, Li Zhen's thoughts are quite the legacy of his spiritual teacher Qiu Jun.

However, unlike Qiu Jun, who fundamentally rejects the traditional idea of 'emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business' and advocating equal emphasis on agriculture and commerce, Hai Jui is not so radical, and he believes that it should still be 'based on agriculture and supplemented by industry and commerce'.

Ps. Hai Rui's concept of education, as well as this "The Desire of the Rich and the Noble" are all written by himself, and after reading it, he can refresh the three views. What have the sea fighters been smeared into, is this a distortion of human nature or a moral degradation?
