Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2542 Find a direction

  Pang Shanmin's name is not very big.

  But Pang Shanmin's father is famous.

  In addition, there are hussars and Pang Tong's support, so Pang Shanmin's remarks have to be taken seriously.

  Pang Shanmin's argument, just like him, is gentle, simple and plain, with a firmness and calmness that cannot be explained.

  Pang Shanmin looked around for a week, and then slowly said: "Seriousness means seeking truth and truth. If it is true, it must not be passed on to future generations. If it is true, it must not be taught to future generations." The correct solution is to seek truth and change, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of reality, and adapt to the world without change! The solution to the world is to adhere to the classics of seeking truth and truth, to demonstrate the solution of seeking truth and seeking change, to explore methods, to clarify the advantages and disadvantages, just like the philosophers, theories of a hundred schools of thought, each has its own strengths and weaknesses, take its essence, discard its dross, inherit the past and usher in the future, Carry on the past and open up the future! 』

Philosophers?

  Taking the essence, discarding the dross, inheriting the past and ushering in the future?

   There was a bang, and the scene suddenly became a little chaotic. Everyone couldn't help discussing, and couldn't help looking at Zheng Xuan, and then at Pang Shanmin on the stage, and then their eyes rolled back and forth between these two people...

  Pang Shanmin smiled and looked indifferently. He looked ahead, as if looking at these people in the audience, as if looking at the distance, or looking at the future.

   Zheng Xuan's hands shook, and then he pinched a beard and broke it.

  Bystanders are clear, authorities are confused.

   Zheng Xuan is not only an authority, he is also a stakeholder, so he cannot be as indifferent as Pang Shanmin.

  What Pang Shanmin said, Zheng Xuan also understood, and Sima Hui also knew, but they didn't say it.

   dare not say.

   Or feel that it is troublesome to say it.

Having said that, will it be misunderstood by others, will it be reported by villains, will it become evidence for insinuating hussars, will it become the end of being 404, I have more worries in my heart, Naturally, I dare not say it.

  So it’s better to talk about it in a serious manner, and it’s fine to explain it in a stable manner.

   Zheng Xuan looked at the indifferent Pang Shanmin with complicated eyes.

  Pang Shanmin's indifference comes from the Hushi general, and also from his unwillingness to open the mountain to teach. So he is indifferent, neither afraid of shocking the world, nor afraid of discussion.

   The buzzing sound lasted for a while, and then slowly fell silent.

  Because everyone knows that this is just the beginning, and there are 4,500 words to follow... Bah, there are follow-up arguments.

Pang Shanmin smiled slightly, and looked at Guan Ning, Lu Yu, and the other three in the crowd, "A while ago I heard about You'an's discussion of the Classic of Filial Piety, and I also gained a lot. Today, I might as well use the Classic of Filial Piety as an example to explain the advantages and disadvantages." , try to discuss its essence and dross, and analyze its past and future. 』

  Guan Ning got up and bowed to Pang Shanmin.

These days, Guan Ning is almost the vanguard of Xiaojing. He knows that he can't eat too much, so he stares at Xiaojing hard. On the one hand, he has indeed been affirmed by many people, but on the other hand, was reviled by many people. After all, the thick burial custom in the Book of Filial Piety is indeed a big business.

  Judging someone’s wealth is like killing their parents, so Guan Ning has been scolded these days, and even chased and thrown rotten fruits and stinky leaves...

What? Rotten eggs? Have you watched too many TV and movies? In the Han Dynasty, eggs and everything were good things, whoever was willing to throw them away? If it weren't for the Hussar's order, throwing stones and weapons is not allowed, and those who violate it will be regarded as stabbing, and throwing stones if they can't say it. After all, eggs are expensive, and rotten fruits and vegetables are cheap.

  Now that Guan Ning saw Pang Shanmin's public roll call, and wanted to pass the filial piety scriptures, he naturally knew that Pang Shanmin was affirming and supporting him, so he naturally thanked Pang Shanmin.

  『Benefits should not benefit individuals, but benefit the world. The same is true for harm. The difference between benefits and harms, in terms of the world, is to increase the population, to gain food and clothing as the top priority, and to harm the people's livelihood, and to be poor and barren as the bottom. Pang Shanmin nodded, and said in a serious tone, "The theory of filial piety has been around for a long time, and the disadvantages of Han being trapped in heavy burials have also been around for a long time. Pros and cons of thick burial and long mourning, let’s try to discuss it today. A certain person thinks that the custom of thick burials does more harm than good, and the longer the time goes by, the more serious the harm will be, and the weaker the benefit will be. 』

Pang Shanmin said slowly, "If you follow the custom of long-term mourning, then the king will die, the funeral will be three years, the parents will die, another three years, the wife and eldest son Ruoyao, it will be another three years, and then the uncle and brother will die, and each will die again." In one year, if there are aunts, aunts and elders who die, there are also different mourning years. During such a long mourning period, if there is a slight lack, Dunsheng will be blamed, he will be unfilial, the insults will be small, and some will be beaten and expelled, and some will destroy their walls and crops. Is this habit of mourning for a long time beneficial to the world? 』

  『Wait a minute! Someone stood up and said, "Filial piety is the foundation of benevolence and righteousness. If a person is not filial, he will not be benevolent and righteous. Such a person can benefit the world?" 』

  Pang Shanmin looked over in a blink of an eye, and said with a smile, "Do you claim to be benevolent and righteous?" 』

"what? This, this... I am not talented, but I also seek benevolence and righteousness in my heart! 』The man hesitated for a moment, but still said with certainty.

  『Good. Pang Shanmin nodded and said, "So your benevolence and righteousness can benefit the world?" 』

  『This…』The man could not answer.

  『Someone discusses the advantages and disadvantages of heavy burials and long funerals, which can benefit the world. If you block them and deny the way of the world to understand the benefits and harms, can it be called your benevolence and righteousness? ”Pang Shanmin continued to ask.

   Chi Chi cut the knife, stabbing it hard and fiercely.

  『This…』The man sweated slightly on his head and coughed, 『I'm taking the liberty, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...』 After finishing speaking, he bowed his head and sat down again.

In fact, this person changed the concept secretly, and Pang Shanmin also changed the concept secretly. After all, Pang Shanmin said before that the theory is based on "interests", but that person directly jumped out of the frame to talk about benevolence and righteousness, just like It’s about emotion when talking about reason, and reasoning when talking about emotion. If Pang Shanmin followed suit and talked about benevolence and righteousness, it doesn’t have to be reflected in the behavior of long mourning, then he fell into the trap, just like Guan Ning, struggling hard climb out.

  Guan Ning also talked about heavy burials and long funerals before, but he got caught up in it, and then he went back and forth between Confucius and Mencius.

  At the moment, Pang Shanmin seized on a label, "Beneficial to the world", no matter whether it is about benevolence, benevolence, righteousness, or anything else, he will not accept it. He just asks, if you come to make trouble, do your parents know?

Moreover, when Pang Shanmin just made his argument, he had already said that the criterion for benefiting the world is whether the wealth of the world increases and whether the population increases. As for benevolence and righteousness, that is another topic. In terms of development and development, it is already off topic.

If you want to refute Pang Shanmin seriously, you need to refute the examples given by Pang Shanmin, such as saying that some people did not delay anything when they were in mourning for a long time. business, and you can marry a concubine to fill the house, add children and grandchildren...

   But such refutation cases cannot be mentioned!

  So Zheng Xuan and the others were silent, only the clown jumped out to mix things up.

  The human heart is always greedy, and only those who can control greed can achieve self-achievement.

  Pang Shanmin didn't chase that person fiercely, but just nodded slightly, and then said: "If people in the world die for a long time, what will happen?" 』

  『The face is withered, the walking is like a rotten tree, there are many people who are deaf and blind, unable to read, unable to write, and unable to farm and mulberry.

"etc! Another person stood up from the audience, "This is the theory of Mohism's funeral!" 』

  『Of course. Pang Shanmin nodded and said, "Laozi, Confucius, Mencius, Mozi and other sages want to be the first in the world, worry about the world's worries, worry about the world's worries, if they get it, they will be happy for the people of the world, and if they lose it, they will be happy for the world." The common people are sad, the schools of thought are the families of the world, not the schools of one person. Why does one person's preferences disregard the interests of the world? To discard the chaff and save the essence, to seek the truth and the truth, can be said to follow the way of the sages. What's more, Confucius also said that the three of them have my teacher, why should Mozi be alone? 』

   Puchi made another cut.

  『Ah... I'm being reckless...』The man couldn't be right, so he had to sit down.

  Pang Shanmin still nodded gently, "Mozi's funeral also advocates thin burials. This is what the Spring and Autumn Period said, why can't it be changed today? It is true that the filial piety is too much. If it is too much, it is not as good as it is. If people cook food, if it is not done, it will be eaten raw, but if it is too much, it will be burnt and hard to eat. 』

  『A correct interpretation of the Classic of Filial Piety should take the middle, and if one desires benevolence and righteousness, one should seek mediocrity. People who have been mourned for a long time, harm others, themselves, and the world, the custom of burials, and chaos in the community must not be tolerated, nor should they be allowed to do things of selfish desires in the name of benevolence. 』

  『The Son of Heaven did not say anything about his desire for a long funeral, and the imperial court also ordered that no heavy burial be allowed. Why do the common people think that a long funeral is beautiful? Pang Shanmin said slowly, "This is our responsibility!" Since you call yourself a scholar, you should carry on the past and build on the past, and build on the past, instead of adding layers of weight, talking nonsense, chaotic order with selfish desires, and forgetting goodness in pursuit of fame and fortune! This is a great harm! 』

  The third knife was thrown onto the stage with a bang.

  Everyone started talking.

What Pang Shanmin said is very straightforward, even direct, without too much embellishment, and without any flowery rhetoric. Just say it like this, the emperor does not advocate long funerals, and the court also ordered not to advocate thick burials, but why is there still such a custom The repeated prohibition is that the children of the gentry are doing bad things, over-interpreting the filial piety, and adding more funerals.

   Of course, there is also the factor of the prosecution system...

  Different from Guan Ning's theory, Pang Shanmin's theory of filial piety, the elaboration of the stakes without the slightest euphemism in language, and there are not too many concerns, but this is also the case, it seems that Pang Shanmin's argument is justified and unwavering.

  『A hundred schools of thought are all about being ahead of the world and walking ahead of the world. There is nothing to rely on at the top, and no one to rely on at the bottom. If there is something lacking, it is due to the limitations of the current situation. What is right and wrong is the change of the sea. Serious scriptures, correct explanations, although we talk about seeking the scriptures and discussing the annotations, we need to empathize with the hearts of sages and sages, understand their meaning of seeking, observe the ancient sages walking alone on the avenue, see the well-learned prophets overcoming thorns and cutting thorns, on the green bamboos. Every word of blood and tears is the earnest hope, it is China through the ages, and it is written down forever! 』

  『Orthodoxy, correct solution, seek its "correctness"! 』

  『This "righteousness" means whether it can benefit the country, the family, the people, and the world! 』

  『To encourage you all! 』

  Founder's voice, which means seriousness, is Pang Shanmin's understanding of "seriousness" and "correct solution", and it is also the biggest difference between him and Zheng Xuan and others. Because Pang Shanmin has nothing to ask for, it is naturally equivalent to being strong without desire.

Zheng Xuan has no way to do this. It's not that Zheng Xuan's understanding or knowledge is lower than Pang Shanmin's, but Zheng Xuan has to consider more things, such as whether the theory can be liked by more people, whether it can be won by many people Whether it will attract any criticism, whether it will be misunderstood by someone, etc., etc., a series of things make Zheng Xuan bound up, worrying about gain and loss, and it is difficult to be as indifferent and straightforward as Pang Shanmin.

  Hearing what Pang Shanmin said, Zheng Xuan could not help but let out a long sigh, stood up and saluted Pang Shanmin, "What my little friend said is like the sound of gold and jade, it is deafening and deafening, I have been taught..."

  Pang Shanmin also stood up to return the salute.

  Seeing that the two of them were like this, the surrounding people began to discuss more and more, buzzing and buzzing together.

Everyone seems to feel that they have something they want to express, or feelings they want to share. Although everyone's voice is not too loud, but so many people together, it becomes a quite loud voice So much so that the ceremony officer at the side pulled his neck and yelled several times, but it had no effect. In the end, he could only knock with a golden gong. After a while, all the people refocused their attention on the stage.

  The ceremonial officer secretly wiped his sweat, glanced at the dark-faced Pang Tong, then nodded and bowed to Pang Shanmin, and stepped aside.

In fact, what Pang Shanmin said just now can basically be regarded as the end of the argument, but the task Pang Shanmin got from General Hussars is not over yet, he still has to push the result of this argument to a new height, a new direction up!

  Pang Shanmin turned his head and glanced at Pang Tong. Pang Tong understood, nodded, and said something to Zhuge Jin.

  Zhuge Jin cupped his hands, and then took two guards, took the wooden frame, walked to the stage, hung a larger hanging scroll on the wooden frame, and with a clatter, the hanging scroll hung down, showing the graphics inside.

  『A map of thousands of miles of mountains and seas? "A sharp-eyed person couldn't help but shouted, "Thousands of miles of mountains and seas? Shan Hai Jing? 』

The people sitting in the back couldn't help standing up, stretching their necks forward, and then the ceremony officer and guards jumped out again, shouting loudly, beating gongs, and only then restored the order and made these Guy had to sit back again.

  Pang Tong coughed, first saluted Pang Shanmin, and then stood beside the "Picture of Wanli Mountains and Seas".

For such a map, in fact, Pang Tong and some high-level figures in the political group of the hussars have basically seen it. They have shown it to the general public before, but like today, the This is the first time that a wider, stricter, and more formal model has been displayed.

  『Let’s talk about the south first. 』

Pang Tong cleared his throat, and without talking nonsense, he pointed to the south of the map and said, "Liu Xuande has arrived at Jiaozhi. According to his report, there are especially roads south of Jiaozhi. , thousands more, unable to speak, dark complexion, small body...』

  『In the north, the Protectorate of the Northern Territory, Zilong reported that in the north of Mobei, there are various tribes, called Rouran and Jiankun, all of them have tens of thousands of people, and there are also people of color and eyes, with white skin and no fear of severe cold...』

  『East, let’s not talk about it for now. What about the west, according to the Fanwen collected by Zhuan Yixuan and the recitations of Hu merchants in the Western Regions, there are countries in the Western Regions large and small, there are thousands of riders, and there are thousands of riders, all over the Western Regions, not far from Dingyuan's territory...』

"Notice! In the west of the Western Regions, there is Taixi! Rest in peace, the Great Qin is here! There are millions of soldiers! In the past hundred years, twenty-seven countries have been destroyed! 』

  『The translation of these matters in the Western Regions has been submitted to the Senate, and a report will be issued in the near future. You can see the details. 』

   After Pang Tong finished speaking, he signaled to Pang Shanmin, then turned around very seriously and went down again, leaving the audience in an uproar again.

  『Silence! 』

  『clang, clang, clang...』

  The ceremonial officer had no choice but to come out to maintain order. He felt that today's job was not easy, and it was several times more tiring than usual.

  But everyone still didn't care, chattered for a long time, and some people tried to get in front of the stage to look at the big map, regardless of the guards in the field to stop and pull, it took a long time to be considered relatively stable.

Pang Shanmin stood in front of the map, pointed to the map and said, "The north side used to be the Xiongnu... Now, although the hussars are the guardians of the northern region, it is unknown whether there are still the old Xiongnu... Actually, it is even more terrifying. It is the home of Western Regions and Western Regions...』

  『The Huns invaded the border in the old days. Although they were ferocious and destroyed the border, they were like duckweed, with no roots and no fixed place to live. ”Pang Shanmin stretched out his hand, took a sheepskin scroll from Zhuge Jin’s hand, and unfolded it, “This is a famous scholar from Thailand and the West. There are many words… His words are similar to those of Gongsun Zibing, and the way of famous Song writers… Ladies and gentlemen, do you know this kind of person? , for Huaxia, is it lighter than the Huns? Or is it more important? 』

  『We in China are what we inherited from the ancient Yanhuang, Shennong Cangjie and others, and Confucius and other masters passed on the scriptures of hundreds of schools...Fortunately, the Xiongnu did not have great sages...but Taixi...』

  Pang Shanmin shook the sheepskin scroll in his hand, "There are also "scholars"!" It has millions of soldiers and destroys twenty-seven countries! If he sees that China is weak, can he be friendly and friendly, and be friendly with friends? 』

  『China is not weak! 』

  『Have you ever been weak against a big man? ! 』

"exactly! 』

  『…』

  Everyone in the audience couldn't help shouting loudly.

  Pang Shanmin nodded and said, "Of course, the Han family is not weak today. However, arrogance does not know the benefits and harms, and advocating it with selfish desires is like a long-term mourning. For three years and three years, scholars cannot be ruled, farmers cannot cultivate, work cannot be done, and business cannot do business. How can a big man not be weak? If the wind of thick burials continues, soldiers, armor, food, utensils, and money will all be buried in the ground, from princes and generals to local counties. They will be buried today and tomorrow. People will die every day and every year. Thick, accumulated by the days and months, the whole family is poor when one person is buried, and the parents are scattered everywhere! And ask how the big man is not weak? ! 』

  『Even so, there are still people who say they must be called filial piety and benevolence and righteousness! Regardless of the harm of the people, the poverty of the country, and even the slightest complaint, it is said that loyalty and filial piety are what Kong Zhongni said, and it is explained by the scriptures! Let’s ask if this is serious, is it a correct solution? 』

  『The so-called correct and correct solution is for the country and the people, and this is the world of China! If you distort the scriptures for your own selfishness, you will harm the country and the people, and you will sin against the world! This is true of the filial piety, and so are the rest of the scriptures! All the schools of thought are like this! 』

  『Seek righteousness, correct scriptures and correct solutions, distinguish good from bad, establish the rules of the world, inherit the inheritance of the masters, don't like or dislike schools of thought, but choose what is good or bad for the world! 』

  『This is the responsibility of you and me, scholars! 』

  『It is duty bound! 』
