Chapter 549: Persuasion
In Jingyang Academy, the music stage and the other six people stood among them, looking at the front fixedly, without saying a word.
He could see that on the construction site, all kinds of things used by the craftsmen were like traces of the Mohist technique, but Letai was familiar with the Mohist mechanism and knew it well, and he could easily see that those utensils were much more exquisite than the Mohist mechanism, and it was far beyond the reach of the Mohist mechanism. At first glance, it seems that the Mo family has just learned a little bit from this!
Just like Xia Hongsheng's expected reaction.
Jingyang Academy has subverted people's perception of academies. Even Li Shimin, after seeing the design drawings before, was very amazed and asked Xia Hongsheng if he wanted to build a royal garden.
No matter who arrives at Jingyang Academy, it is also such a reaction,
"This is ......" Le Tai swallowed a mouthful of saliva and subconsciously asked, "This is the academy?" ”
"Yes, this is the Academy." Xia Hongsheng nodded: "In my lifetime, I hope that this place will become a place where all the world's knowledge is concentrated, no matter what kind of knowledge, as long as it is beneficial and progressive, so that everyone in the world can study in this academy, so that these studies can learn from each other, dialectically with each other, communicate with each other, and improve each other, so that this academy can become the source of Datang learning." ”
"The learning of the whole world?" Letai's mouth was a little dry, and he was very amazed at Xia Hongsheng's ambition in his heart.
Xia Hongsheng nodded and replied, "Yes, the world's knowledge." In the following view, there is no distinction between high and low knowledge, only the benefits and disadvantages. The Tao can make people quiet, but it can also make people do nothing; Confucianism can make people gentlemen, but it can also make people imprisoned; Ink can make people pragmatic, but it can also make people break the ban; The law can bind people. It can also be harsh...... There is no perfect learning in the world, each has its own strengths and weaknesses, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, each has its own essence, and each has its own dross. Our academy is not expensive and cheap, and the professors are beneficial. Abandon the harmful, take the essence, and discard the dross. So that the world's learning, not divided into the knowledge of Confucianism and Mofa, but into the beneficial and harmful knowledge, nine streams and ten schools and even the exercise of agricultural medicine, this is all knowledge, choose its good and practice, its bad and change! To make all kinds of learning in the world. Each is beautiful, the beauty of the beauty, the beauty of the world! ”
When everyone heard this, they were awe-inspired, and the music stage murmured in their mouths: "Make all kinds of knowledge in the world beautiful, beautiful people, and beautiful." The world is ...... in harmony"
“…… The beauty of each is the beauty of the beauty. The United States and the United States, the world is the same! ”
The music stage repeated Xia Hongsheng's words over and over again in a low voice.
"I would like to invite all of you from the Mo family to come to Jingyang Academy to serve as a chair, teach students the post-Mojia studies, and explain the ideas of the Mo family to interested students." Xia Hongsheng solemnly said his purpose again: "I don't know what Juzi wants? ”
"But my Mo family has always been ......" The music platform still had a trace of hesitation, but it could be heard. He was already glad to move.
Xia Hongsheng spoke again: "Your Majesty will not waste ink because of Confucianism, nor will you waste Confucianism because of ink." In the eyes of His Majesty, it is Confucianism, ink, Taoism, law, vertical and horizontal, yin and yang. It doesn't matter if it's a farmer, a soldier, a doctor, or a name. His Majesty will only use what he thinks is useful and wants to use, and he doesn't care which school it is. Since then, the Mohists have not been involved in political affairs, but devoted themselves to learning, as a kind of learning, not a political proposition, which can be passed on forever, no longer suffer from persecution, no longer have to hide in Tibet, and can walk the world openly. And my Jingyang Academy is the starting point for the ink artist to reappear in the world. ”
After that, Xia Hongsheng was not persuading, just waiting for Letai to think about and decide.
Xia Hongsheng wanted Mohists to teach Mohist post-study in Jingyang Academy because the Mohists in the later period after the Warring States period were divided into two branches: one focused on the study of natural disciplines such as epistemology, logic, geometry, geometric optics, and statics, which was the so-called "Mohist post-learning" in Xia Hongsheng's mouth. The other was transformed into the rangers of the Qin and Han dynasties. In addition to affirming the role of sensory experience in cognition, it also acknowledges the role of rational thinking in cognition, and overcomes the tendency of empiricism. It also made a clear definition of the basic categories of ancient logic, such as "reason", "reason" and "class", distinguished three types of concepts such as "reach", "class" and "private", and also studied the forms of judgment and reasoning, which occupies an important position in the history of ancient Chinese logic. As for the other political ideas, Xia Hongsheng did not intend to let them teach in the academy, so he advised them so.
There can be countless kinds of academic disputes in Jingyang Academy, but there can be no politics.
Politics is the emperor's, and there can only be academics in Jingyang Academy.
This is the bottom line that Li Shimin did not say, and it is also what Xia Hongsheng wishes in his heart.
Academia should be independent of politics. Academia can guide politics, and politics can react to academia, but there must be a boundary between that. That is, academia cannot be reduced to a tool of politics, and politics cannot become an academic arrangement.
The Li dynasty can tolerate countless kinds of scholarship in the Tang Dynasty, so that his Li dynasty can choose to use them, so as to be strong and ruled. But there is absolutely no room for these scholarships to challenge his rule.
Xia Hongsheng knew this, so Xia Hongsheng never asked and forced Li Shimin to rule the country according to his qualities and science. And because of this, Li Shimin was able to objectively look at the benefits brought by Gewu, so he was imperceptibly influenced by Xia Hongsheng's thoughts. Under such circumstances, Li Shimin's rule and Xia Hongsheng's Gewu found a balance. Li Shimin really felt the benefits brought by Gewu, so his thinking was influenced by Xia Hongsheng and changed. Based on this, Xia Hongsheng was able to continue to develop his own scientific path.
It's at its best.
Therefore, Xia Hongsheng strives to maintain a state of this kind between Jingyang Academy and the imperial power.
"Juzi, although he is burdened with Gewu, he has never interfered in political affairs with Gewu, and has never asked His Majesty to rule in the way of Gewu, but only let His Majesty really feel the benefits brought by Gewu, so His Majesty was unconsciously influenced by Gewu's thoughts, and the way of my Gewu has also been developed. If the Mohists want to reappear in the world, they also need to do so, so that they can last for a long time, and only then can they influence Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty will imperceptibly accept some of the Mohists' ideas. Xia Hongsheng said to the music stage: "This is an empirical talk, and Juzi can think about it." If you are willing to stay and be a professor at Jingyang Academy, you will be greeted by the next, if you are unwilling, you can leave on your own, and you don't need to worry about criticism and injury, let alone the persecution of the Mo family. It's all in the mind. ”
The music stage was silent for a long time, staring at the Jingyang Academy in front of him.
After a long time, I heard him suddenly take a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Thank you Xiahou for your kindness, my Mo family is willing to stay as a teacher in Jingyang Academy!" (To be continued.) )
