But what do you Confucians do? You lose power and humiliate the country, you are servile, you are servile, you are fawning, you are worshipping foreigners, you are fawning, you are servile, you are servile! How can you take the responsibility of educating people? Our great China, the vast nine states, has been the Celestial Empire since the first emperor swept the world and united the world. We can only have the merit of having all nations come to pay tribute, how can we have the fault of losing power and humiliating the country? If we continue like this, the extinction of our race will not be far away! "
As Liu Sanwu finished his words, all the schools of thought fell silent, while the people began to talk about it. The Confucian students only felt that the lofty and sacred Confucianism in their hearts was being shattered bit by bit.
"What about the philosophy of psychology?"
A great Confucian scholar asked in the audience of the debate that from Liu Sanwu's words, he realized that Confucianism might really be wrong.
Hearing this, Liu Sanwu straightened his expression and said, "If we want our race to survive, we have to fight to the end!"
"Anyone who starts a war will be condemned!" The great scholar shook his head, disagreeing with this idea.
Liu Sanwu said, "I would rather bear the infamy of this life than let my descendants enjoy the happiness for generations to come. This is what it means to sin in this life and benefit future generations!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience burst into applause.
"Great! A great crime committed in this lifetime, but great merit to future generations!"
"Yes, I will bear the infamy for my whole life, but it can bring peace and prosperity to the people of the world for thousands of years. Why is it not worth it?"
"You have achieved great things in your lifetime, but you have made the people of the world suffer for thousands of years. What kind of righteousness is this?"
"Aren't we all living for our children and grandchildren? We should fight to the end and win back the land and a place to live for our children and grandchildren! Even if we are accused of being militaristic, so what?"
"That's right, peace is not achieved by asking for it, it is achieved by fighting for it!"
Deep down, the common people still agree with this idea, and the Hundred Schools of Thought also agree with it.
Liu Sanwu pointed at the Confucian scholars below and said, "You Confucians care about your reputation and don't care about the lives of the people. Was Confucius like this in the past? You are not kind, not frugal, and dare not take the lead in the world. How can you be responsible for educating people?"
Liu Sanwu scolded thousands of Confucian scholars so badly that they could not even raise their heads, and he became the focus of the entire audience.
"Mr. Liu, according to what you said, Confucianism has no merit at all? The merits of thousands of years cannot offset the mistakes of Confucianism?" asked a great Confucian scholar with a bow.
Liu Sanwu shook his head. "I don't deny that Confucianism has made contributions, but Confucianism's faults outweigh its contributions! Regardless of the rest, just take the matter of Shixiu's surrender as an example. Confucianism is no longer suitable for educating sentient beings!"
"So what you mean is that we should reform the law? How can the law of the sages be changed?" the great scholar asked again.
"Why can't we change? If we are conservative, we will either advance or regress. Isn't the world always changing? From the ancients who covered their bodies with leaves to the present, when we wear brocade and fancy clothes, isn't this also changing? Is it right to only read the books of sages and not pay attention to what is happening outside, and not care about the lives of the people of the world?"
Liu Sanwu asked back.
Hearing this, another great scholar asked, "Then what do you think the four sentences of Hengqu mean?"
"To let the people stand up straight is to establish the mind of heaven and earth, to let the people have surplus food at home and spare money in their hands is to establish the destiny of the people. To let a hundred schools of thought contend and thoughts be active is to carry on the unique knowledge of the ancient sages. In the great China, everyone is like a dragon, and everyone can stabilize the country with culture and rule the country with martial arts, so as to bring peace to the world for all generations!" Liu Sanwu replied.
These words caused all the great scholars to fall silent.
"We know there is a problem, but we deceive ourselves and say that the laws of our ancestors cannot be changed. This is totally wrong." A great scholar sighed.
Liu Sanwu smiled and said, "Our Xinxue emphasizes the unity of knowledge and action, that is, not empty talk, but practical work. The heart is the reason. If you know the suffering of the people, you should do it. Empty talk and avoidance are all misleading the country and the people!"
"Big win!"
The people shouted one after another, saying that as the lower class people, they knew best what kind of life they were living.
Liu Sanwu held one hand behind his back and looked down upon the world.
"What Confucianism dares not change, we Xinxue will change; what Confucianism dares not be the first in the world, we Xinxue will be the first in the world. In a word, what Confucianism dares to do, we will do; what Confucianism dares not to open, we Xinxue will open. This is Xinxue!"
These words also shook the thoughts of many Confucian students.
"Yes, I have read the books of sages for twenty years, but why don't I have a beautiful wife or a golden house?"
"Confucianism has educated the people for thousands of years, but why do we dress so beautifully while the people can't even get enough to eat? How can this be called universal peace?"
"This...this...I am wrong!"
"Everything that is unrealistic is just a fantasy. Does our family support our education just to let us paint a picture of prosperity for the people?"
"Empty talk ruins a country, hard work makes it prosperous, Confucianism misleads me!"
"Unity of knowledge and action, what a unity of knowledge and action! My way is accomplished! Since I am determined to build a prosperous world for the people, why do I just think about it instead of doing it? Hahahaha, I got it!"
Many Confucianists feel that they have finally seen the light after the clouds have been cleared and have found the truth in their hearts.
"May God bless our Great Ming Dynasty for prosperity, and may God bless China for eternal prosperity! Among the hundreds of schools of thought, there has emerged a doctrine that can truly continue the cultural tradition, hahahaha." The representative of the Legalists shouted to the sky.
A descendant of the Zongheng family stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Liu, I have a question from the Zongheng family. Can you explain it to me?"
"Excuse me!" Liu Sanwu nodded.
The descendant of the Zongheng family asked, "Can the School of Mind accommodate hundreds of schools of thought?"
This question revealed what the Baijia were thinking.
If the School of Mind is the second school of thought that only wants to dominate the status, then the School of Mind can only be a short-lived flower.
It withers as soon as it blooms, its beauty is fleeting!
This must not be allowed to continue. The world has suffered from Confucianism for too long, and we cannot study it diligently for any longer!
"Why not? A hundred schools of thought contend, and the world is in great order. The School of Mind suits me, the School of Diplomacy suits you, and the School of Law suits him. They are all different, and a single flower will never be as good as a hundred flowers blooming. I, the School of Mind, am willing to join hands with the hundreds of schools of thought to share the prosperity and peace!"
Liu Sanwu opened his arms to show that he was willing to accommodate all schools of thought.
As soon as these words were spoken, hundreds of people nodded in agreement. What else was there to debate?
There is great potential in the study of psychology!
"The heart is the reason, knowledge and action are unified, the study of the mind makes the country prosperous, Confucianism ruins the country!" The representative of the diplomats bowed and retreated back to the crowd with another successor.
At this point, Confucianism began to collapse one after another! After today, the School of Mind is destined to become famous!
On the city wall, Zhu Yunhuan saw this scene and breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Sanwu lived up to everyone's expectations.
"The philosophy of Xinxue has been accepted by hundreds of schools of thought and the people. The will of the people is the will of heaven. Confucianism must either follow the trend of heaven and earth or become history. Then there will be a river of bloodshed for Confucianism."
Zhu Yunxun murmured.
Lan Yu asked, "Nephew, what is the river of blood?"
“After all, the number of Confucian scholars is huge, and not all of them will accept this new concept. So when the concepts of the two eras collide, Confucianists will inevitably protest in the streets and incite public opinion. Without a bloody battle, the position of the School of Mind will not be stable.
So I decided to burn books and bury scholars alive, and use the blood of these corrupt scholars to carve out a path for the School of Mind. By then, blood will surely flow like a river. Granduncle, are you willing to assist me?" Zhu Yunhuan looked at Lan Yu and asked.
Lan Yu patted his chest and said, "I will hit wherever you point! Whoever you say to kill, I will kill!"
"I want you to lead the troops and march to Qufu! Cooperate with the Embroidered Uniform Guard to thoroughly investigate the Yanshenggong Mansion!" Zhu Yunhuan said.
Lan Yu nodded, "No problem, I'm good at fighting and killing people, let professionals do the professional things, haha."
at the same time.
In the crowd, Kong Youde looked at his old friend beside him.
"Brother Lin, Brother Liu has already accomplished his mission. A new storm has already emerged. How can we stand still? It's up to us now. Are you afraid?"
Lin Han, the chief academician of the Imperial College, stroked his graying beard and smiled.
"What joy is there in life, and what worry is there in death? Remember what His Highness said, for the sake of sacrifice one has great ambitions, and dares to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky! Tomorrow, I will carry the coffin to die for the remonstrance, and I will go first! I am older than you, you have to give way to me."
