Zhang Juzheng listened to this lecture from beginning to end. As an official in charge of the lecture, he would not come to argue with the people below. In fact, he knew that the theory that the king of the outer king in Lin Yanchao's palace did not have to be saints first, and the reason did not start with flattering himself.

Logically speaking, Zhang Juzheng should be on the side of Lin Yanchao.

At this moment, Zhang Juzheng, wearing a big red python robe, went out to work, and as a powerful minister, he had a arrogant aura of looking down on his face.

Zhang Juzheng walked into the hall, and the whole hall was quiet. He almost represented the authority of the Ming Dynasty more than the emperor.

So it is natural that he will be the judge of this lecture.

Zhang Juzheng said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I cannot agree with Lin Zhongyun's words."

As soon as this statement was made, Zeng Shengwu and Wang Zhuan were overjoyed and thought to himself that the prime minister came to support them! As expected, in the end, the prime minister was their savior!

Wu Kan, Geng Zhou and others who were so refuted by Lin Yanchao that they wanted to get into the ground were also angry.

What? Can you win if you debate like this? Do you dare to believe this?

It's still our backend is tough.

In the past, I only heard that Zhao Gao could refer to a deer as a horse, but we don’t believe it. Today, it seems that the prime minister’s ability is better than Zhao Gao.

If we had known that we would win the debate in the end, why would we talk so much nonsense?

Wu Kan and Geng Zhou several officials immediately raised their heads and raised their chests, exhaled and raised their eyebrows, and laughed in their hearts.

As for Huang Fengxiang and the officials who were good friends with Lin Yanchao, they cursed in their hearts. This, this, this, this is a shady story, it is simply a reversal of the black and white.

However, other ministers in the palace who held Neo-Confucianism did not think so, and thought it was natural.

Lin Yanchao didn't care too much about the outcome in his heart. Everyone is not a fool, so he knows who wins and who loses at a glance. He wants to look at him. What truth can Zhang Juzheng say? Let everyone convince him?

The little emperor was very convinced by Zhang Juzheng, but at this moment he asked with some uncertainty: "Please talk to the lecture on the Tongzhi Shang."

Zhang Juzheng said: "Lin Zhongyun's words were sophisticated just now, but there were still some inappropriate and uncautious aspects. When discussing with others, you must not be self-conceited and need to teach. Lin Zhongyun was not talented but not pure in his studies, and was proud but not calm in his heart. The words of debate about the scriptures were not to express unprecedented views. The ways he studied were closer to Yongjia's studies."

The little emperor was puzzled when he heard Zhang Juzheng say this, and thought to himself what is the Yongjia study?

Feng Bao whispered beside him: "Your Majesty, Yongjia's studies are also called Zhejiang studies, which flourished in the Southern Song Dynasty. The school advocated utilitarianism and reduced life, and was also called the study of merit."

"Then why haven't I heard of this school?"

"The school of knowledge broke out during the Song and Yuan dynasties, and there was no teacher's teachings."

When the little emperor heard Feng Bao say this, he suddenly said, "So that's it. The Lin Qing family's debate today is a quotation from this. The Lin Qing family's knowledge is really too profound."

Lin Yanchao heard Zhang Juzheng's two sentences, "Talented but not pure, and heroic but not calm." He knew that this was used to describe it from Chen Liang, the Yongjia School.

Chen Liang was the top scholar in the Southern Song Dynasty and a figure in the Yongjia School who inherited the past and the future. Of course, he also held the theory of merit and was good at eloquence and was not tolerated by Neo-Confucianism. He was also imprisoned twice because of his arrogant and arrogant personality.

However, Fang Xiaoru admired him very much and once praised Chen Liang, saying that people do not think they are crazy, but they think they are delusional.

When Lin Yanchao read this sentence, he thought to himself that people do not think they are crazy, but they think they are delusional. This is how a real man should be like this.

If someone else changes, he will be angry at Zhang Juzheng's words, but why can't Lin Yanchao hear such profound official language? Zhang Ju scolded himself in the front, but he also vaguely reminded himself not to talk nonsense. In this era when Neo-Confucianism is a prominent scholar, as an official, you are so frustrated and be careful to repeat Chen Liang's mistakes in the future.

Zhang Juzheng also said: "Looking at what the saying in the Yun Palace in the forest, if you summarize it in one sentence, you will have virtue and good things to help you, and you will have reason. In this way, the sages of the three generations will be in vain. The disadvantages are that the superiors are not afraid of the king and the subordinates are obsessed with their subjects, thinking that the destiny of heaven can be obtained by chance. This theory is not enough to be a classic of Confucians."

Zhang Juzheng said this, which represents the official attitude. For more than two hundred years, the court has been governing the country based on the concept of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. Although it was impacted by Wang Yangming's psychology, there was even a situation where several subjects were top students in the psychology.

But generally speaking, Neo-Confucianism has the upper hand, and Jinshi from Neo-Confucianism has more than Xin-Confucianism.

Even though you, Lin Yanchao, were talking about the scholars at today's lecture and won a great victory, it is impossible for you to replace Cheng and Zhu Neo-Confucianism with your point of view.

Of course, Zhang Juzheng's words were unanimously supported by officials of the Neo-Confucianism. He discussed in a low voice. Lin Sanyuan was indeed insightful in the classics, but his knowledge debate was well-known. Even if he was talented and heroic, he was not considered the words of everyone.

Just listen to the words of the Zhuang Yuan Gong. On weekdays, you should follow the principles of Cheng and Zhu. This is the way to be careful in your study.

Even the more intense Tao, the forest Yunqiang explained the words of the saint, how can it be called the scriptures?

However, after a pause, Zhang Juzheng said: "Although Lin Zhongyun's words are biased, they are also heard and heard. I participated in the final discussion of the temple. The court rewarded and punished officials. He always believed that he valued the officials and used the Qingliu with caution. Among the officials in the world, the Qingliu was Haigangfeng. However, after he took office as the governor of Yingtian, he suddenly corrected the ropes and ink to respond to the sky, and the rumors were boiling. Xun officials were good at doing things and were pragmatic, and they were seeking welfare for the people. The ministers in the palace were careful to study their lives and must not ignore the learning of merit."

After listening to Lin Yanchao, he would applaud Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng's words appeared to uphold the orthodoxy of Neo-Confucianism, but in fact, he did not deny his own merits too much. By the way, he also promoted his ruling philosophy of "referring to the officials and using the clear stream carefully", and then criticized his political enemy Hai Rui and finally made a pot of chicken soup for official merits.

Zhang Juzheng used the Neo-Confucianism on the surface and used the method of doing good deeds in the inner world. He was the person who was the most recent person in the Yongjia School in the court who advocated merit. If a real Neo-Confucian official was the chief minister, who would dare to do reform like him?

If it weren't for Zhang Juzheng's head of the palace examination, Lin Yanchao wouldn't have dared to write about such shocking views as the inner saint and the outer king.

Lin Yanchao complained endlessly about Zhang Juzheng in his heart, but the little emperor admired the young master Mr. Zhang endlessly. He said nothing he could only admire in his heart.

The little emperor praised his face and said, "The words of Tongzhi's lecture on the imperial examination are really deafening and can be concluded."

Zhang Juzheng's words were put on the ground, which was also a sign for the debate at this lecture.

The officials present must be convinced or not.

Of course, Zeng Shengwu and the others were overjoyed. The debate was like this and they could still win the final victory, at least in name, and what else could they not be satisfied with?

Lin Yanchao was also acceptable. In this dynasty, Neo-Confucianism was also a dynasty that was not only a prominent scholar, but also an official scholar. At least Lin Yanchao was able to fight with Zhou Ziyi and others in the debate on the imperial lectures, which was already considered a win.

After that, the lecture ended and all the officials dispersed one after another.

The emperor gave food to him, and all officials were going to attend the banquet of the scriptures. (To be continued.)
