“If you listen both, you will be enlightened; if you believe only, you will be dark.”
The official thought for a moment and said, "This is probably what Wei Zheng said to Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty."
Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, and Wang Gui all thought about Zhang Yue's words. When Lu Huiqing saw Zhang Yue making such a show in front of the emperor, her jealousy disappeared.
But Lu Huiqing's cleverness lies in the fact that others don't know that he is jealous, but he does.
Therefore, the self-aware Lu Huiqing echoed: "Your Majesty clearly knows that Zhang Daizhi's words are indeed extremely mysterious."
Zhang Yue listened to Lu Huiqing's words and thought to himself, these words may not be sincere.
Not only Zhang Yue, but others can also feel it.
Sima Guang then said: "Your Majesty, Yao will ask his people if there is any evil in the seedlings. Shun has four eyes and four intelligences, so Gong, Gun and Huandou cannot hide them. The second generation of Qin favored Zhao Gao. To bring disaster to the barbarians."
"I hope your Majesty will learn from this."
Sima Guang was indeed a political master, and he quickly used Zhang Yue's words to attack Wang Anshi.
Now the person whom the officials favor is Wang Anshi.
Of course, Zhang Yue was not attacking Wang Anshi with his partial listening and partial belief, but said: "Your Majesty, I think that partial belief is not necessarily dark, but listening at the same time must be clear."
How do you understand this?
People cannot avoid having positions, and positions are related to vital interests.
Just like those who have bought a house, they all firmly believe that house prices will rise. People who have not bought a house all think that housing prices have plummeted.
The bureaucracy naturally resisted reform because it was afraid of losing power during the reform, but the emperor always wanted to reform and wanted to seize power during the reform.
Zhang Yue came from a poor family and had no power. Therefore, the only way to quickly gain power was to rely on the emperor, so he must side with the reform.

To throw away one's own position is to lose one's own interests.
So you can be biased in believing, but you can't be biased in hearing.
Sima Guang heard this and asked: "If it is partial belief, how can it be useful to listen to both?"
Zhang Yue said: "Listening simultaneously means to avoid making one-sided remarks. Talking only about what you see or touch is one-sided. Therefore, listening together means attacking the positive and negative, and taking advantage of the negative to make up for it. , dismiss it as short."
Sima Guang said: "Zhang Daizhi seems to be light and easy. I wonder if it can be touched?"
Zhang Yue smiled and said: "The world's affairs cannot be accomplished if there is only Yang, and there is no Yin. Therefore, there is a saying that there is one Yin and one Yang."
"It's like the Tai Chi formed by yin and yang. The yang is connected to the yin below, and the yin is connected to the yang above. Therefore, the four images are born. The four images include the four images of heaven and the four images of earth, so the Bagua is formed."
Sima Guang pinned Zhang Yue's words and said: "This is what Shao Yaofu said!"
The officials looked confused. Who is this Shao Yaofu?
The eunuch on the side explained to him that Shao Yaofu was Shao Yong. The official suddenly realized that he had also heard of this man's reputation. This man lived in seclusion in Luoyang, was very famous, and was very skilled in Yi studies. The imperial court wanted to call him an official, but he was unwilling.
Zhang Yue said: "That's true. The Shao family used the Eight Diagrams to infer the Sixty-Four Innate Hexagrams. My good friend Cheng Hao has been friends with the Shao family for a long time. Cheng Hao asked him to learn Yi, and the Shao family said that he didn't have time. It takes at least two years to learn the Yi. Ten years of hard work.”
"Cheng Hao said it was okay for him. He was very familiar with Yi Dao, so he would give it a try someday. If nothing happened, everyone Shao would teach him. Cheng Hao tried it and pushed it, and it all came true. Everyone Shao asked, how do you know. Cheng Hao smiled and said, "There is no mystery in this Yi Xue, it is just a doubling of the method. Shao and everyone were surprised and couldn't help but praise it."
The Confucian study of Yi in the Song Dynasty began with Zhou Dunyi.
His Tai Chi diagram states that Wuji generates Tai Chi, movement generates Yang, movement generates stillness, and stillness generates Yin.
The four images deduced later were the sun, taiyin, shaoyang and shaoyin through the interaction of yin and yang.
The Four Symbols are derived to the Bagua, and the Bagua is derived to the sixty-four hexagrams.
These are all Shao Yong's skills. Cheng Hao looked at them and said that they were just doubling the skills.
Doubling is equal to multiplying by two.
Therefore, it is said that the Book of Changes is the earliest binary algorithm, and this is where it comes from.
Yin and Yang, dialectics, and binary are the origins closest to the truth.
Zhang Yue said: "If you can see it (subjectively), it is yang, and if you can touch it (objectively), it is yin. If we adopt the method of seeing (subjectively), we can then attack the positive and negative phases..."
It's like a problem. I decide on a subjective approach, and then I attack the subjectivity with pros and cons and analyze the pros and cons. Through continuous subdivision, the subjective and objective are constantly brought closer and the error is reduced.
Thus one becomes two, two becomes four, and four becomes eight.
Don't make a hasty decision, put things aside and wait until you have matured your thinking before making a decision.
Zhang Yue said: "The doubling method is to push simplicity into complexity, from two to sixty-four hexagrams..."
"Similarly, conversely, by simplifying complex things, you can make inferences. Only when all aspects are considered can you avoid making mistakes in judgment."
"I see that there is nothing wrong with your Majesty's request for advice from the world. This is also a strategy that relies on the public and a decision on one's own!"
After Zhang Yue finished speaking, everyone had their own thoughts.
Wang Gui, who had been silent all this time, came out and said: "Your Majesty, what Zhang Daizhi said is in line with the current discussion. Now the extension is almost done, it's time to have dinner."
After hearing this, the official suddenly woke up from his meditation, nodded and said: "That's exactly it!"
So everyone said goodbye to the officials.
When they left the palace, everyone gathered together. Wang Anshi and Wang Gui were in front side by side. At this time, Wang Gui turned back to Zhang Yue and said, "How come Zhang Daizhi also knows everyone Shao?"
Zhang Yue said: "Never. But it has been famous for a long time!"
Wang Gui smiled and said: "Isn't Taixue now a young scholar? I don't think it would be good to invite everyone Shao to come?"
Wang Anshi smiled slightly, looked at Zhang Yue and said, "I think Mr. Zhang is very good, why should he be Mr. Shao?"
Zhang Yue felt happy in his heart, thinking that Wang Anshi agreed with his statement.
Zhang Yue said quickly: "I don't dare to take it seriously, but it would be the best if I can invite everyone from Shao."
Wang Gui said: "But I heard that Shao doesn't care about worldly affairs. I'm afraid it will be difficult to invite him."
Wang Anshi did not answer Wang Gui's words, but asked Zhang Yue: "Zhang Daizhi, what you just said in the palace seems to come from yin and yang, but in fact there is something else!"
Zhang Yue wanted to talk nonsense: "This... is better to be called..."
Wang Anshi said: "Oh? Is there really no name?"
Zhang Yue said: "Indeed not."
Zhang Yue thought to himself that Wang Anshi's problem was that he was alone, so he said: "I think that if there are no two theories in the world, then there is no one. If the two are not established, then one cannot be seen, and if one cannot be seen, then the two are useless. interest."
Wang Anshi is so smart, how could he not understand what Zhang Yue meant.
Wang Anshi thought for a while and said: "One and two cannot be seen for the time being, so why don't I give you a name and call it Pros and Cons. Now that you are Guan Gou Taixue, how about teaching students this way?"
Zhang Yue said: "I will accept the order!"
Wang Anshi said: "The government officials will have a chance to study next month, so make good preparations!"
After saying that, Wang Anshi strode away.
Lu Huiqing, who was in the distance, looked at the conversation between Wang Anshi and Zhang Yue just now, but she had mixed feelings in her heart.
