Chapter 77 March 3

There are two famous scenic spots in Huqiu, one is called Huqiu Tower and the other is called Jianchi Pond.

But at this moment, these two famous scenic spots have been ignored. At the foot of Huqiu Mountain, Zhou Mengchen had already made people build a site, with the following seats, and the high platform was built along the mountain. The sound of the discussion on the platform could be heard in the ears of the audience below.

More than a thousand soldiers maintained order and kept the entire site under strict supervision. There were people in charge of and on duty in each functional area. In addition, most of the scholars came here, and many officials also came to the government to participate in this grand event. In addition, there were many officials in the village. It can be said that if you accidentally encounter a former minister, you might even meet.

Therefore, these scholars dare not be presumptuous.

There is not much confusion overall.

It can be said to be orderly.

The reason why Tiger Hill is called Tiger Hill is that it is a small hill, which looks like a creeping tiger. At this moment, looking down from a high altitude, it is like a tiger looking down at the dense crowds below. It is quite meaningful.

Today is Zhou Mengchen’s lecture.

At the meeting of Tiger Hill, Zhou Mengchen referred to the previous rules of lectures and divided the entire lectures into three stages. The first stage was lectures. Zhou Mengchen was not allowed to take office on the first day. After that, he asked other great scholars to talk about them one day. Zhou Mengchen was not good enough to set up this big place to match so many great scholars to themselves, but not let others talk. Moreover, Zhou Mengchen also knew that in the academic studies, people were weak, and if Wu Tinghan was still there, he could still hold on to Zhou Mengchen.

When Wu Tinghan left, Wang Menqi was in his lineage, but in fact there were no great scholars with real talents and knowledge. It was up to Zhou Mengchen.

This is actually the current situation of many great scholars. Even Wang Yangming could not guarantee that there would be any achievements among his three or four generations of disciples. The time when Wang Yangming's heart-learning was prosperous was actually the time of Jiawan, and by the late Wanli period, it had already declined. By the Chongzhen period, too many people criticized the heart-learning.

Wang Yangming's situation is not an individual case. Among Wang Tinghan's disciples, the only one is Wu Tinghan. If Wu Tinghan had not brought Zhou Mengchen into the Wang Sect, Wang Tingshan would have been no successor.

Although lectures are a matter of knowledge, nothing can exist independently of reality. When it comes to lectures, it depends on the number of people and the power is heavy. If three or four great scholars in the Qi lineage can produce, Zhou Mengchen would dare to be shameless and would not let any master of the Xinxue come to the stage today and hold a special session of Qixue.

But Zhou Mengchen did not have such a family background.

I can only allow the study of the mind and even other schools to come to power.

After all, just one person can’t stand up to today’s grand arrangements. The second stage is the debate among scholars.

This is actually a confrontation.

Zhou Mengchen is making the greatest efforts and having the least expectations today. He can only let the scholars and officials in Jiangnan listen to Qi Science, and from then on they can know that there is this science in the world. It would be even better if he could introduce a few talents from Jiangnan to the Qi Science because of his interest.

What Zhou Mengchen feared most was the cold treatment of the mind.

As a younger generation, Zhou Mengchen was not good at provoking the masters of the heart, which was a matter of etiquette. Confucianism is essentially a moral knowledge. Bad character means bad knowledge. This logical chain is deeply rooted in the hearts of many people. Even not only in this era, but later generations divide a person based on the simple dimensions of good people and bad people. The same is true.

Zhou Mengchen, who came from later generations, understood very well that if he gave a simple lecture today, it would not be news. If he debated with the big guys of Xinxue and made a fuss, it would be big news and would have a better publicity effect.

Zhou Mengchen was not easy to come clearly, and was preparing to check the situation during the debate, or whether to arrange for someone to make trouble. It was just that such people were not easy to find. After all, great scholars who could go to the high platform were all talented and knowledgeable. It was not easy to buy them.

Finally, it is the third stage.

The third stage is to ask the students below to ask questions. Ask questions at will and ask the scholars above to answer. This can be regarded as a benefit to the students of Suzhou. After all, in ordinary times, they may not be able to see so many scholars.

Of course, this is a routine. Most of the time of lectures, such a link is arranged to ask students questions. It is also what Zhou Mengchen wants to arrange. After all, Zhou Mengchen cannot buy a great scholar. But arranging one or two students is a piece of cake.

There will always be a time to touch it.

This is the whole process. If everything goes as usual, it will take about ten days to go.

And today is March 3rd, Shangsi Festival, and it is also the first day.

Zhou Mengchen, as the organizer, came to the foot of Huqiu Mountain early. However, if he didn't go in early, there were naturally Wang Shizhen, Xu Wei and others in it, so Zhou Mengchen didn't have to worry. Although Zhou Mengchen was a junior in front of these great scholars, he was the governor of the six provinces and the first person in the southeast. Therefore, Zhou Mengchen was about to appear last.

At this moment, he was welcoming two people, one was Luo Qinshun and the other was Han Bangqi.

After Han Bangqi received the news, he came from Shaanxi thousands of miles away. With his age, Zhou Mengchen was very moved. Before entering the venue today, he naturally had to meet Uncle Han to express his gratitude. Han Bangqi smiled slightly, didn't care, and said, "The momentum of the Tiger Hill Club is not worse than when Wang Yangming was there. It's not known how many years it takes to be so lively. How can I not come? It's worth seeing the people in the Southeast.

Han Bangqi turned around and said, "It's not my expectation that Mr. Luo, who came here too today."

Compared to Han Bangqi's strong body, Luo Qinshun is different. Zhou Mengchen had already prepared a soft sedan for Luo Qinshun and carried Luo Qinshun into the venue after a while. Luo Qinshun and Han Bangqi are not much different in age, both of whom are in their 80s. They are also old acquaintances.

Luo Qinshun said, "I am here because I am not willing to give up my affection. The second is that I want to meet all the old brothers. For the last time, the country is getting older and the people are getting worse. Some people will not be able to see you if you don't see you."

The lifespan of civil servants in the Ming Dynasty is quite long. If you count it carefully, there are many people in the age of 80 or 90. Now there is a prime minister who is about to pass his 80th birthday. Among the officials who retire, there are naturally several long lifespans. But after all, this was the Ming Dynasty. People of this age can be called a lucky person. It is a minority. Even a detailed survey and statistics were conducted, and there were only a few dozen people, or even fewer.

People at their age heard bad news about old friends and relatives. When they were young, some things were let go.

There are three reasons why he was able to come this time. The first is to meet old friends. Although his relationship with Han Bangqi and Zhan Ruoshui was also average and not very good, when people from their era passed away one by one, only these people could talk about Emperor Hongzhi and how they opposed Liu Jin back then.

Second, it is to leave some remaining shade for the descendants.

This time, the Huqiu Meeting was so powerful that it seemed to surpass Wang Yangming's lectures at that time. Is Zhou Mengchen's knowledge better than Wang Yangming? No, Zhou Mengchen's power is better than Wang Yangming now. Wang Yangming never held such an important position as Zhou Mengchen in his life, governing the six provinces. It can even be said that there were few such precedents in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

Luo Qinshun was naturally willing to come up with Zhou Mengchen's future. No matter how old his child is, in the eyes of his parents, he is still a child. How could he not know that he died immediately? It is normal for him to die immediately. He naturally had to make a good relationship for the Luo family before he went there, so that Zhou Mengchen could take care of his descendants.

The third reason is also the simplest reason. Let’s see how good Zhou Mengchen is.

Wu Tinghan handed over Wang Tingxiang's connections to Zhou Mengchen. Zhou Mengchen had been asking for advice from later generations and wrote to Luo Qinshun. It can be said that although the two were not masked, they had been in harmony for a long time.

Luo Qinshun's opinion, the Qi Science he initiated with Wang Tingxiang, Yang Shen and several others has now come to decline. If it weren't for Zhou Mengchen, it would probably be that after his death, people in the world would not know what Qi Science is? It was Zhou Mengchen who saved all this.
