Chapter 269 Mind Study
(Thank you for your monthly ticket for 5335YN~~)
A slight clear light shone in the sky, and Li Xin woke up naturally, feeling the beauty lying on his arms on the left and right, a kind of unspeakable satisfaction arises from the bottom of his heart.
In fact, in his previous life, he had experienced it even more ridiculously, but his temperament had changed a lot in his two lives. Sometimes he couldn't figure out whether he took over the original owner Li Xin or the original owner's soul swallowed him.
He only felt that his life was becoming more and more affectionate, and his heart became softer and softer.
Of course, everything interacts. In his previous life, he valued the beauty of women, while those women valued his power and his money did not have any spiritual communication at all.
And in this life, Hong Niangzi, Zhou Han, Gao Guiying, Huiying...
Which one is not affectionate and righteous to him?
Li Xin's heart is also soft because of them, and the friendship gradually fills the heart. Compared with the ultimate enjoyment last night, Li Xin cares more about the feeling of embracing each other, which is the fusion of hearts.
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Li Xin carefully pulled out his arm, fearing that he would start to alarm the two beauties, but he still alarmed.
"Young Master, you're awake!"
Caiyi opened her sleepy eyes and said in a daze.
"Well, you guys sleep with you, it's time for me to get up and practice."
Li Xin smiled slightly and was about to get up, but Cai Shang grabbed her half of her body and said, "Young Master, wait a moment, I will serve you with Cai Yi."
Li Xin once read in a book in his previous life that women should not show their bodies in front of men anyway except doing that. Many women are not particular about marriage, thinking that they have done everything and read everything, and are their own husbands. There is no need to remain reserved, but they forget that distance brings beauty. As a result, men gradually see too much and lose interest.
Cai Shang was very good at this. She hugged the quilt and covered her chest. When Li Xin turned around and looked at her, she said angrily: "Young master, don't look, I can't dress!"
Li Xin muttered: "Didn't you watch it last night?"
"That's different!"
Cai Shang blushed and said, "Last night was last night, now is now, young master, turn your head around quickly."
Li Xin turned around.
Caiyi also said shyly: "Young Master, don't look at me, I have to wear clothes and serve the young master. Otherwise, please close your eyes first!"
Li Xin closed his eyes because he was too forced.
After a while of ease, the two women put on their clothes and served Li Xin to dress and wash. They were careful and considerate, which made Li Xin sigh inwardly, "The Gentle Land is a hero's tomb. Of course, we can't blame women. Women are good to you, and you blame others for seducing you. What is this logic? If you want to blame, you can only blame men for not being able to control their belts."
After using breakfast in a hurry, Li Xin stood in a stance and practiced boxing. Except for the reason that he was not allowed to do so, he almost never stopped practicing. Although he was now in his capacity, he basically didn’t need to charge in the battle, but there are two benefits to persist in practicing. One is to practice the mind and maintain a positive attitude to avoid being content with the status quo; the other is to exercise the body and try to live as long as possible.
After practicing, Li Xin took an article to Huiying, called "On Dialectics of Materialism". The next day, this article was published.
The current Ming Pao has become a battle between the mind and the Neo-Confucianism. The criticism of Neo-Confucianism triggered by Li Xin several months ago gradually evolved into a dispute between the mind and Neo-Confucianism, which was contrary to his original intention, so he published the dialectics of materialism.
There are three major laws of materialist dialectics: the unity of opposition, the mutual change of quality and the negation of negation. Taking into account the social characteristics and actual situation at that time, Li Xin only chose to publish the unity of opposition, but even so, it attracted a lot of discussion.
Three days later, Liu Rushi was asking Li Xin for dialectics of materialism, so Li Xin simply asked Sun Di to teach her. The two women were discussing fiercely, and Huang Hai hurriedly reported: "Commander-in-Chief, Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi were asking for a meeting."
"oh?"
Li Xin looked at Liu Rushi.
Liu Rushi said from the side: "Mr. Li, Brother Ning Ren and Brother Taichong are proficient in learning the mind, so they must come for the dialectics of materialism. Although they are both members of the Fushe Society, they are different from those who seek fame and reputation, such as Chen Zhenhui, Hou Fangyu, etc., and are truly scholars. Since they are here, they might as well meet them."
Li Xin looked at Sun Di again, meaning to avoid it consciously.
Sun Di snorted, "Di'er also wants to meet the world's most sincere scholars. Besides... he is no longer a little girl, so he can't hide behind him for the rest of his life without seeing anyone?"
"That's right!"
Liu Rushi smiled and took Sun Di's hand.
"Please quickly."
Li Xin nodded then.
"Get orders!"
Huang Hai left, and within a moment, he led two majestic scholars to come.
Li Xin was well aware of these two people. This was not only due to their thoughts of the empty king, but also because he insisted on opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty after the fall of the Ming Dynasty. Although it did not play a big role, how many people in the world were there with this heart? He was always willing to be poor and refused to serve in the Qing Dynasty, which brought a perfect end to their lives.
Gu Yanwu was about his early thirties, and Huang Wanxi was a little older. The two of them were also observing Li Xin along the way. They were wearing an ordinary Confucian robe, standing in front of the steps with their hands in their backs, with their backs straight and their eyes soft. No matter how they looked, they didn't look like a commander in the battles, but more like a gentle scholar.
Liu Rushi wore a plain floral long dress, and the green spots between her hair set off her elegant temperament. She stood with Li Xin and looked like a pair of people.
In the scholar circle, many people were speculating on the relationship between Liu Rushi and Li Xin, and they didn't believe that Liu Rushi really served as secretary for Li Xin, and the same was true for Gu Huang and the other two. After exchanging a clear look, they looked at Sun Di in surprise and saluted both: "Gu Yanwu, Kunshan, Huang Zongxi, Yuyao, met Commander Li."
"Mr. Li had heard of the two great names. When he saw them today, he had to have a long-cherished wish. Come and invite them inside!"
Li Xin smiled and reached out and invited the two of them in.
After the guest and host took a seat, Sun Di played the role of a maid and served incense tea. After a while, Sun Di was like a maid standing behind Li Xin. Liu Rushi also sat in the deputy seat, picked up paper and pen to prepare the record. Gu Yanwu said bluntly: "Commander Li recently published the dialectics of materialism. We read it carefully. It was really deafening, but a little unclear. Today I came to ask for advice. If there is any rudeness, I hope Commander Li will forgive me."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"
Li Xin waved his hand with a smile.
Huang Zongxi asked: "In recent months, Ming Pao has been quarrels in the study of the mind and science of the mind. I wonder if Commander Li has any understanding of the mind and science of the mind?"
Li Xin said seriously: "The study of mind can be traced back to Mencius, Cheng Hao of the Northern Song Dynasty opened his path, and Lu Jiuyuan of the Southern Song Dynasty opened his path, competing with Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism. When we arrived in our dynasty, Chen Xianzhang set the forefront, advocated cultivating the mind and calming the clues. From then on, the study of mind stood on the stage of history as an independent theory, and then produced two master-level figures, Zhan Ruoshui and Wang Shouren.
Zhan Ruoshui proposed that the principles of nature are understood everywhere, and Wang Shouren proposed that the purpose of the study of mind is to achieve conscience. At this point, the study of mind has a clear and independent academic context. The study of mind is also called Yangming study of mind. Both are masters of the study of mind in the world. For specific theories, Li didn’t sell the axe. He just wanted to ask for advice. How to understand the study of conscience?”
Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi dare not be too slow. They have read a lot of Li Xin's articles and poems, all of which are remarkable, but in terms of importance, they are far less important than dialectics of materialism. This is a method of thought. Just like the study of mind and Neo-Confucianism, it belongs to the ideological field. Those who can put forward such views in history cannot be regarded as a simple literati, but are a master who sets a precedent.
What's more, Li Xin holds great power and is in charge of the strong army. Such a person, if he has theoretical ideas and ideas, does not need to be recognized by others. Just one must promote it yourself, which will be enough to have a drastic effect.
In Buddhist terms, Li Xin is at the crossroads of becoming a Buddha with one thought and a demon with one thought, which makes people feel uneasy.
Liu Rushi also had a certain understanding of the study of mind, so he looked over with Sun Di.
Gu Yanwu pondered and said, "I dare not be Commander Li's question. Gu only has some simple opinions. Please correct me.
Mr. Yangming believed that everyone has conscience, and conscience is inherently complete. Ordinary people are contaminated by their own desires and conscience is blocked, so conscience cannot be used. Therefore, ordinary people are ordinary people and saints are saints. Since they know the difference between ordinary and saints, if they want to achieve conscience, they must do good to get rid of evil.
Therefore, it can be inferred from this: man is the instrument of Tao and the carrier of Tao. It is inherently complete and does not require external seeking. Human desire is also the law of heaven. Selfish desire is the law of heaven that drives people to accomplish cause and effect. It may be good results or bad results. Zhu Xi advocates that removing human desires and preserving the law of heaven is too biased. Little do they know that virtue and selfish desire are both manifestations of the law of heaven. I don’t know what Commander Li thinks?”
Gu Yanwu's conclusion is the essence of the difference between the study of mind and the study of the Neo-Confucianism. The former advocates that human desires coexist with the law of nature, while the latter eliminates human desires and preserves the law of nature.
