Chapter 38: How to Divide the Weight with the King (18)
These two sentences were written by Zhang Zai himself. As long as the smart people will choose to use Zhang Zai to attack Han Gang.
Zhang Zai's Ximing is called the father and Kun is called the mother, and Han Gang pays attention to empirical evidence, which has unbridgeable shortcomings. Many people have seen the problem between Zhang Zai's unity of heaven and man and Han Gang's knowledge of things.
However, Han Gang is not the kind of person who knows that there is a problem, but does not know how to make up for it, at least he can say something like that on the surface.
"The ancestor once said that the work of "Stubbornness" is only for scholars, so it is stubborn. How much more is heaven and earth divided than parents? I only want scholars to be in the way of heaven, and if they talk about it, they don't need to say it. β
Zhang Zai's original meaning of Ximing is 'only for scholars', and the comparison of Qiankun to parents is just easier for people to understand, so it is called "Stubborn". In fact, there should be no division between heaven and earth at all. If you talk directly about the 'way of heaven', you don't have to be so troublesome.
It's just that Han Gang doesn't see it that way, in fact, from another angle, you can get a more reasonable explanation, "But in Han Gang's opinion, there is another explanation." Houses, wood, earth, stone, bricks and tiles. Rivers and lakes are a combination of dripping water. And all things must be made of small things that are smaller than the sand and water droplets. It is so small that it can no longer be decomposed, and it is called an atom. The classification of atoms is the element. β
Han Gang's theory of atomic elements has been widely circulated. It was very early with Zhang Zai's Void Qi and cooperated. Qi is condensed into atoms, and atoms are divided into elements, freely combined, and put together all things in the world. It has become the main body that supports the view of the world of qixue.
Many experiments have proved the correctness of the elemental theory, at least there is not much understanding of it in the palace, except for the Banzhi guards and a small number of internal attendants, only the six-year-old prince. Even the queen knows a little bit about it. Not to mention the other people in the temple, who were hostile to the Xinxue and Chengmen of Qi Science, any of them had seen one or several of these experiments, and the hardest of them had to admit that the atomic theory of elements did have such a truth. Now in front of Han Gang, coming out is the share of being counterattacked.
Seeing that no one came forward to fight, Han Gang smiled and continued: "In the kitchen, rice, vegetables, pigs, sheep and fish, if they are left on the stove and ignored, the water vapor will dissipate and turn into carbon black. It can be known that rice, wheat, vegetables, meat and eggs, most of the original are water and carbon. The same is true of people. The components that make up the human body are nothing more than water, carbon, and other substances. β
"Cai Bian has seen the food, fish and meat after being burned, but no one knows. How did the Privy Council know? β
Han Gang's eyes turned cold: "After the battle, there were thousands of wounded soldiers who were injured and amputated, and had to be roasted and sealed with fire. How many people have not seen it on the battlefield? After roasting to the fullest, it will only be carbon. "There is nothing that cannot be found in the heavens and the earth. No more than birds, beasts, insects, and pigs. As a heaven and earth, people and things are like this, 'so the plug of heaven and earth, my body', 'things, I and also'. β
It has become the target of public criticism. Han Gang glanced at the silent Son of Heaven, the current situation, he should be happy to see it. Han Gang is also happy to see it. Anyway, this kind of debate actually can't make an eyebrow, and after the trouble is the worst, it will be broken up in one shot and two shots, and let Zhao Ji work in vain.
All natural sciences can be social sciences. The key is that the interpretation is in your own hands.
Lu Dalin moved on tiptoe, and couldn't help but want to say something.
Among the officials in the palace, only Lu Dalin knows Zhang Zai's Ximing the most and is the most transparent. Han Gang can hook Qi science with his doctrine, others can't see the flaw, but Lu Dalin can see the problem from it.
In Lu Dalin's view, this time, in order to prove his opinion, Han Gang once again misinterpreted Zhang Zai's opinion. This was an extremely rare opportunity, and Lu Dalin was about to come out and reprimand, but he immediately found that Han Gang was looking directly at him.
Just raised his eyebrows slightly, but Lu Dalin couldn't help but feel empty. Do you know that this is not Han Gang's trap? If he made a mistake and let Han Gang take the opportunity to have another experiment of throwing stones and hanging iron hammers on the Jiying Palace, how could this sutra feast continue? The left side of the Son of Heaven is also on Wang Anshi's side, not Cheng Hao.
Now Han Gang obviously wants to lead the topic to experimental evidence, if he steps into the trap one step by one, it doesn't matter if his own face is involved, it will be a great crime to involve his teachers and friends.
Lu Dalin thought silently in his heart, reminding himself not to argue with Han Gang in the side arts. As long as he is dragged into his rhythm, Han Gang can immediately reverse and win. Only the scriptures are his weakness.
Lu Dalin had been preparing for Han Gang for a long time, and he also found the fatal wound of the pseudo-'qi science'. But every time he saw Han Gang again, he found that he hadn't prepared enough. Most of the time, it is Han Gang who can always prove it with experiments, even his traps. However, sometimes, because Han Gang is too unscrupulous, he directly denies the classics that do not suit his wishes. The biggest problem with Han Gang's theory is materialization, everything is based on empirical evidence, seeing is believing, and you must know that there are some things that cannot be seen.
Just as he was about to speak, Han Gang took the lead, "When it comes to conquest, among the Five Classics, there are many things in the Spring and Autumn Period. β
"The order of the upper and lower Ming is divided into the difference between Huayi. "Spring and Autumn" is also. Cheng Hao said, "The book "Spring and Autumn" is nothing more than respecting the king and respecting the Ming rites. The conquest cannot be no less. β
In the Renzong Dynasty, starting from Mr. Taishan Sun Fu's "Spring and Autumn Zun Wang Fawei", there were many Confucians who interpreted "Spring and Autumn". There is nothing strange about it, the north is forced by the Liao State, and the west is just bullied by the Western Xia.
Therefore, it is necessary to respect the king and distinguish between Ming and Huayi. Since you can't win by force, it's good to have a spiritual victory method on the rule of law. I can't beat you, but I can despise you.
It is rumored that Wang Anshi does not like "Spring and Autumn", but to be precise, he mainly does not like the three biographies of "Spring and Autumn", and thinks that "Spring and Autumn" has died since Lu Shi, and its meaning cannot be examined. Later generations have commented that it is purely 'a moment of Confucianism attached to the meeting to invite a generous reward', and 'it is by no means the pen of Zhongni'.
Therefore, when Wang Anshi's students Lu Dian and Gong Yuan planned to make annotations for "Spring and Autumn" and imitate Sun Fu and others, Wang Anshi directly criticized it as "breaking the rotten dynasty newspaper" - this is talking about the annotations made by Lu Dian and Gong Yuan, which also shows Wang Anshi's prejudice against "Spring and Autumn". is the current Guozijian, and there is no Spring and Autumn in the curriculum, and there is no Spring and Autumn Doctor in the Guozi Doctor.
However, he has nothing to refute what Cheng Hao said. Sun Fu's reinterpretation of the "Spring and Autumn" scripture, at this time, was already an important commentary for scholars to study the "Spring and Autumn", only slightly inferior to "The Ram" and "Gu Liang"βonly not as good as "Zuo Chuan"βin any case, at least not many people would question the four words of respecting the king.
"Whoever is Yidi, so are the beasts! Common Knowledge. It can be said that things should be based on facts and reason, and they can be described as correct arguments. Han Gang dared to ask Mr. Bochun, why did he say that Yidi was a beast? Why? And how did you come to this conclusion? β
Without arguments and reasonable arguments, how can Yidi be hooked with beasts? Not every Yi family will come to rob China, and not every barbarian family has the custom of steaming his mother and taking his sister-in-law when his brother dies.
The distinction between Huayi and Yi is the key to Confucian peace. The difference between humans and beasts is a problem that every philosopher in the world must consider.
Cheng Hao's view on the difference between humans and birds, and the distinction between Huayi and Huayi, is that people are in the middle to the right, and they are in line with the golden mean. β
But in terms of debate, it can't be said that Zhang Zai set up a tiger skin chair in Luoyang to talk about it, and Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi came to challenge and became famous in a battle. Experienced. He knows very well that the key to winning or losing in a debate is not to show flaws in front of the opponent, to hold the argument correctly, to be stable in the argument, not to seek new changes, not to seek merit but to seek no fault, and to wait for the opponent to make a mistake.
Therefore, he chose a very large path, and replied irrefutably among the Confucians: "Those who are polite are people, and those who are rude are beasts." β
'The reason why mortals are more valuable than beasts is to be courteous. These are the words of Yan Zi in the Spring and Autumn Period. It is basically a common understanding of Confucianism.
Cai Bian was a little more indulgent: "'The husband is only rude to the beast, so the father and son get together'." And when father and son get together, they are rude like beasts...... Don't the Privy Councillors think so?! β
"What is a father-son gathering?" The queen whispered to the big mink beside her.
Liu Weijian opened his mouth and stammered, and a white sweat broke out, hating Cai Bian to the bone. was stared at twice by the queen, and explained two sentences in a low trembling voice.
When the queen heard this, her fair face was flushed in an instant, burning to her ears, and she glared at Cai Bian angrily through the screen. Even the "Book of Rites" from the saint should not be said in front of the prince. Cai Bian was dazed and ignorant, still staring at Han Gang.
That's just a faΓ§ade, and it's not for everyone. There are thousands of barbarians in the world, do they all have such customs? Han Gang looked at Zhao Maid, and then at the screen, there were children and women present, so it was hard to say much, "In Han Gang's view, there is only one truth for all living beings in nature, whether animals or plants. This is also the big joint of the distinction between humans and birds, and the distinction between Huayi. β
The cowhide is blowing through the sky. Lu Dalin couldn't help but snort coldly.
Han Gang's statement is equivalent to negating all the expositions of the past dynasties to distinguish the difference between Huayi and the difference between humans and birds, and even the "Book of Rites" has been degraded to the bottom in one breath, and the tone is so big that it reminds people of the toad at the bottom of the well.
Wang Anshi was born, and he also felt that Han Gang was talking too much. All living beings, except for people, are all the same.
Brag unblushingly. This is Cai Bian's idea.
"Isn't it birth, old age, sickness and death?"
"Who can be an exception to these four things?"
Cai Bian hated himself for being fast-talking, he was born as a Jinshi, and he entered the pavilion again, but he was confused by Han Gang, and blurted out angry words for a while. Han Gang didn't pay much attention to him, only asked a rhetorical question, and did not pursue.
Cheng Hao's mind moved, and his expression became more focused. Han Gang's character, he knows it very well, and if he doesn't have full grasp and confidence, he won't be so full of words.
"What is it?" Song Yongchen asked questions on behalf of the Son of Heaven.
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest."
ps: Today's second update. By the way, let's talk about the next commuter pass. I didn't expect to mention it yesterday, and my friends cheered on it, and it rose to eleven or twelfth in one fell swoop. In that case, I'll fight it too. The guaranteed one change per day is not counted, one change is added for every twenty monthly passes, and the chapters added are completed within the month. Let's see if we can squeeze into the top 10.
