    It turns outthis is hope

    Emperor Hongzhi probably understood.

    He squinted his eyes slightly and stared at Wang Shouren seriously, his eyes full of appreciation.

    A scholar reads the Four Books and Five Classics all day long, and it is not easy to understand these principles.

    It is even more difficult for a scholar who understands these principles to dare to speak out the principles in this world that advocates clear talk.

    The most difficult thing is not being able to understand these truths, nor having the courage to speak them out.

    The most difficult thingis actually being willing to do it and put these things into practice.

    But Wang Shouren has all three.

    hope¡­¡­

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled and nodded towards Wang Shouren.

    "I finally understand this high-level argument. It's like an enlightenment. Heyhow did the Qing family know this?"

    Wang Shouren was not arrogant or impetuous when facing Emperor Hongzhi's praise, but was decisive in his approach to Emperor Hongzhi.

    "This couldn't be easier. It's nothing more than receiving the teachings of my mentor, thinking about what the people think, and worrying about the needs of the people. If you can't understand the people under your rule, how can you govern? So if you know what the people need,  What you think is the most important thing. In the dawn of the world, people don't want to be decent people, knowing etiquette, justice and integrity. Everyone has a sense of integrity, scholars have it, and so do the common people. But what the court advocates is  It is an unrealistic scripture meaning. I will never dare to slander the knowledge of this scripture in the slightest. This is a treasure left by the saint. Buthow many people can the scriptures and meaning be useful?"

    Wang Shouren said, his eyes glowing with blazing heat. He pursed his lips, paused, and continued.

    "You can obviously use simple principles to educate the people, but why does the court choose to use the most complicated principles?"

    Emperor Hongzhi clasped his hands behind his back. Faced with this question, he looked anxious, so he paced back and forth and said worriedly: "What the Qing family means"

    Wang Shouren glanced at Wang Guang, the prefect of Luzhou, who was standing aside. Obviously, Wang Guang should not have heard what he said next.

    "ButWang Shouren doesn't care.

    Anyway, he wouldn¡¯t say anything that shouldn¡¯t be said, so he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued.

    "This is because someone needs to make this simple truth complicated. It is obviously just etiquette, justice and integrity, but the more you know, then this etiquette, justice and integrity will become a stone on the ground, worthless. But if etiquette, justice and integrity are made complicated  , becomes difficult to understand, becomes mysterious and mysterious, and it must be explained in order to understand things clearly and clearly. If you must write an article, not only must the contrast be neat, but also there must be no more than one sentence.  One word is indispensable. It seems that only in this way can we know the integrity. As everyone knows, this is just the Midas touch, turning a simple truth into more and more difficult to understand. Only those who have mastered it can use this method to turn a simple truth into gold.  , gain wealth."

    Wang Shouren said: "Because of this, what was learned in the academy before was useless to common people. For wealthy people, it was only used as a stepping stone to become an official. Confucius said that Chengren and Mencius said the essence of righteousness, but no one learned it.  No more paying attention to it. If things continue like this, will this education be effective?"

    "The essence of new learning is actually to simplify the complex and speak out the simple truth so that more people can understand it, so that more people can spend more time teaching the six arts of a gentleman.  Above, it is enough for ordinary people to understand the principles and use these principles to know what to do and what not to do when they enter school. They can learn the knowledge to live a peaceful life, and naturally they will become more and more  The more children are willing to study and are willing to study.¡±

    As he spoke, Wang Shouren became excited, with confidence in his eyes, and he emphasized every word and every sentence.

    "What is hope? In the eyes of ordinary people, the noble children inherit the title of their ancestors. This is not hope. The children of wealthy families are named on the gold medal list. To them, the so-called hope lies in the common people.  Next to me, Zhang Ergou, who lives next door, was favored after entering school and was eventually recommended to Xishan Academy. He has a bright future, which is the hope. Wang Shijiu, who is facing the street, has studied  , was hired by the workshop with a high salary, married a wife, had children, and lived in a big house. This was also hope. Liu Sanxi, who had played together since childhood and even rubbed mud together, was lucky enough to have an article published in a weekly  , caused a shock in the academic world, this is even more hopeful. "

    "Only what happens around the people is hope. As for the matter of being named on the gold list, as for the lucky ones far away in the temple, apart from adding some conversation topics after tea and dinner, what does it matter to the people?"

    ?Emperor Hongzhi listened to Wang Shouren's every word which was shocking. At this moment, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart, but he just stood silently and continued to listen carefully.

    "The imperial examination has nothing to do with ordinary people, and reading has nothing to do with the common people. Butin the temple, people are still selecting scholars for the imperial examination and are complacent about their achievements in education. Little do they know that when the imperial examination selects  When the people who account for 90% of the world are excluded by virtue and education, sooner or later, the country will fall."

    Fang Jifan stood aside and sighed in his heart. As a disciple, he really dared to say anything.

    "The country is overthrown" is something no one dares to say easily.

    But Wang Shouren said so.

    Emperor Hongzhi didn't seem to take it seriously. He actually nodded and agreed with Wang Shouren: "It makes sense, it makes perfect sense. Today's world is different from the past. The scholars we relied on in the past But now now"

    Emperor Hongzhi was a very smart man, and at this time he began to draw inferences from one example to other cases.

    Wang Shouren is right.

    In today¡¯s Ming Dynasty, isn¡¯t there firewood everywhere?

    In the past, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled together.

    This is because scholar-bureaucrats are very important.

    How important is it?  At the local level, these scholars almost controlled the land, the tenant farmers, public opinion, and everything

    The emperor must rely on them to govern the world. If not, war will rise and the world will be in chaos.

    But nowthe annual revenue of the treasury and the tax on land have become less and less.  The income from industry and commerce is increasing.  Many scholars who no longer studied Eight-legged Guke began to stand out in various walks of life based on other knowledge they had learned. Scholars and farm laborers were increasingly unable to control them, and the income from land was not far inferior to that of various walks of life  ¡­

    ¡°All of this¡­ seems to be foreshadowing something.

    Emperor Hongzhi's eyes widened: "It's time"

    Wang Guang was really shocked when he heard Wang Shouren's deviant words.

    Deep down in his heart, he was extremely disgusted with these remarks.

    This statement is simply deceptive, but

    But he found that he was unable to refute.

    Now I hear His Majesty suddenly sayit's time

    Wang Guang¡¯s heart was shaken, his body trembled, and he said subconsciously: ¡°Your Majesty what is the time is what is the time¡±

    His Adam's apple rolled, as if he was waiting for thunder to fall from the sky, and he was extremely frightened.

    Emperor Hongzhi raised his voice: "I sayit's time!"

    Wang Guang felt his legs and stomach were trembling. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

    Emperor Hongzhi suddenly said sternly: "It can no longer be like before. The so-called going with the trend, the world is changing, how can the court remain unchanged? If it does not change today, it will continue to be trapped tomorrow. Sooner or later, this will happen  The world must push it to change. At that time, the country will be shaken The regulations for the succession of vassals are very reasonable, but it is still a bit intense. At present, for scholars, some measures are needed to make them  It would be better not to despair, I will think about it again"

    It must change

    But it has to change

    "We can't completely push the scholars to the opposite side. This will not be good for the court."

    The most urgent task at the moment is to appease these scholars and at the same time do their own thing as they please.

    This is a test, like walking a tightrope. Once you go off the rails, you will be doomed.

    Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, looked at Wang Shouren, and said with approval: "The Wang Qing family is really talented. It is my blessing to have such people who can be used by me. Successor, you  The professor¡¯s disciple is really becoming more and more convincing to me, he is really my wonderful son-in-law.¡±

    Fang Jifan was afraid that Wang Shouren would say something wrong again, so he immediately said: "Your Majesty, this is nothing. Wang Bo'an still has many shortcomings. I will educate him well in the future. Your Majesty's ascension to the throne has shocked the past and present. All the subjects in the world admire your Majesty's kindness. Wang Shouren  It's just a commoner who has received your majesty's love, so he is what he is today. This is just like King Wen of Zhou meeting Jiang Taigong. Without King Wen's sage, how could Bo'an show his talents. As the saying goes, a thousand-mile horse always exists, but a bole does not always exist. It is your majesty's contribution.  , is not comparable to King Wen, but is actually the Bole of Bole. It is a blessing for my sons and ministers to be born in this world. Wang Bo'an is also the same. Bo'an, come and thank me."

    Wang Guang was shocked. He felt a little embarrassed when he heard these words, but he couldn't find anything wrong with him. He could only open his eyes wide and look at Fang Jifan with a surprised expression.

    "Oh." Wang Shouren said, "Thank you."

    Fang Jifan breathed a sigh of relief. You see, if you follow your teacher's words, you will definitely make no mistake.

    Emperor Hongzhi shook his head and waved towards Fang Jifan and others.

    "Stop talking about this. I have made up my mind now. You two should think of a way. This charter needs to be changed. It should not be too drastic. But what has been decided must be done. Now that I have made up my mind,  It will never change.¡±

    Fang Jifan immediately said: "Thishow can we have both ends of the world? Your MajestyI thought"

    Wang Shouren thought for a while: "Maybe I can give it a try."

    Fang Jifan sighed inwardly, this disciple doesn¡¯t know how to adapt at all.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?Looked at Fang Jifan.
