Literary associations have existed since ancient times. They first appeared in the middle and late Tang Dynasty. However, they actually existed before that, but the terminology is different.
For example, when a hundred schools of thought contend, there is a truth.
But in the Wei Dynasty, due to the development of social economy, more and more people could afford to read, and naturally there were more and more educated people.
Everyone has ideas, and the court does not engage in literary inquisition, so many types of associations have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
For example, he, Xu He, was also a social cow who joined two or three clubs.
We have a meal on weekdays and get together to write poems. As a literati, how can we be bored at home and write poetry every day?
No matter what, you have to come out and pretend.
But Xu He clearly felt that the association between the uncle and the teacher could not be so simple.
"So, uncle, what kind of society are you?"
"The company's name is Honghua!"
Xu He: "..."
What a bad name to give, Honghua Society. If you don’t know, you might think it’s the Honghua Society that fought against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty.
May I ask if the president thinks there is a gentleman named Chen Jialuo?
"The Red Flower Club is named after Wu Ge, the leader of the club who founded it!"
"What?" Xu He quickly called his uncle, "Wu Xingbang? Mr. Wu Ge?"
Xie Kun nodded and said: "After Lu Xiangshan, he learned from this dynasty. He passed it on to Mr. Baisha first and then to Mr. Ganquan. After that, Mr. Ganquan became a disciple of Mr. Baisha and became the successor of Mr. Baisha. In the third year of Zhengzheng, he was the successor of Mr. Baisha. Mr. Gan Quan, an editor of the Hanlin Academy and a bachelor's degree student, will serve as the Nanjing Imperial College's sacrificial wine!"
"At that time, Mr. Wu Ge became a disciple of Mr. Gan Quan and became a disciple of Xinxue!"
Xu He's head hurt a little after listening.
Now Mr. Baisha, now Mr. Ganquan, who is it?
"Mr. Baisha's surname is Chen, his given name is Xianzhang, and his courtesy name is Gongfu. He is from Xinhui, Guangzhou!"
Xu He suddenly understood when he heard the name.
He still knew about Chen Xianzhang, a great Confucian master known in history as [the True Confucian of the Holy Dynasty], [the Southern Sect of the Holy Way], and [the one from Lingnan].
So far in the Lingnan area, he is the only great Confucian who worships Confucius in the temple.
Xu He only knew that this person was the founder of the Spiritual Poetry School in the Ming Dynasty in another time and space. Unexpectedly, this person turned out to be the founder of the mind science of the Wei Dynasty?
In fact, what Xu He didn't know was that in this time and space, the inheritance of Confucianism was also the same as in history. Chen Xianzhang proposed the educational theory of "learning to understand doubts" in the Ming Dynasty, emphasizing the importance of "asking questions" to learning and growth. , gradually formed the Lingnan School.
The Baisha Psychology he advocated broke the boring and rigid model of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, opened up the history of Neo-Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty, and became a key figure in the history of Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties to connect the past and the future, and to change the trend.
"As for Mr. Ganquan, his name is Zhan Ruoshui..."
Before Xie Kun finished speaking, Xu He exclaimed: "Zhan Ruoshui?"
Xie Kun said in astonishment: "Have you also heard of Master Zhan's name?"
this……
More than just heard of it.
Zhan Ruoshui and Wang Yangming were from the same era. People at that time called his theory of mind and Wang Yangming's "Wang Zhan's theory"!
But in fact, many of Wang Yangming’s theoretical sources are actually related to Zhan Ruoshui.
Thinking of this, Xu He swallowed his saliva and asked: "Uncle, have you ever heard of a man named Wang Shouren..."
Xie Kun frowned and thought for a long time: "Wang Shouren? I seem to have heard of it! A long time ago, the person in charge of the Department of Officials' Certification and Clearance seemed to be named Wang Shouren, but he has been dead for many years. What happened?"
Xu He was stunned: "Dead? How is that possible!"
In Xu He's memory, Wang Shouren did serve as the chief of the Ministry of Personnel, but he could not remember specifically whether he was the chief of the Ministry of Personnel's verification and sealing of the Qing Dynasty.
But...but why is Saint Wang gone?
Moreover, where is his knowledge and his spiritual learning?
this……
Xie Kun frowned and said, "What's wrong? Liang Sheng, is there something wrong with Wang Shouren?"
Xu He said with some sadness: "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered something."
Xie Kun stared at him for a while and then said: "When Master Zhan was in the Imperial College in Nanjing, he met Wu Xingbang, now the second assistant. Second Assistant Master studied mind science with Master Zhan. After returning to his hometown, he studied at Tiefo Temple. Tiefo Temple is located in On a small island in the middle of the lake, the island is covered with red flowers."
"Later, Mr. Tsusuke organized a society to discuss the science of mind, and the name of the society was Honghua!"
Xu He licked his lips and asked, "Uncle, are you and my teacher both disciples of Xin Xue?"
Xie Kun sat on a chair and thought about this issue for a long time before returning: "I am not a disciple of the mind! But I am quite interested in the mind, including your teacher, who is also the same as me. Although He joined the club, but he is not a disciple of Xiangshan."
Xu He said in surprise: "But you just called Zhan Ruoshui Master Zhan."
Xie Kun glanced at him and said, "What's the point? A master is a teacher. Even if Master Zhan doesn't have a heart to learn, just because of his works, it's enough for us to respect him as a teacher!"
When Xu He thought about it, it seemed that it was the case. Zhan Ruoshui was not only a master in mental studies, but also in Confucian classics.
It is said that his research on the Book of Rites and the Spring and Autumn Period are both famous in history.
Smart people, you can't reason with them. Some people are really good at one thing and all things. Anyway, the main word is "cow".
Xu He had too many questions in his mind, and he asked curiously: "What about Mr. Jingchuan?"
Xie Kun took off the hosta and scratched his head and said: "Honghua Society was originally an organization for discussing knowledge, but later it gradually turned into an association of like-minded people who wanted to change the status quo of the court. Tang Jingchuan is an outlier, he is Master Zhan student, and Tang Lian is a student of Master Cifu, both of them are true disciples of the Heart School!"
"I knew it!" Xu He complained in his heart.
There is definitely something wrong with this Tang Lian.
However, Tang Shunzhi is really... a good person at hiding things!
Why didn't he expect that Tang Jingchuan was a famous disciple of mind in history.
Unexpectedly, in this life, bridges will lead to bridges and roads will return, and you disciples of the Xinxue School will still be together!
"So, Tang Lian asked me to participate in the debate today. Did he do it on purpose?" Xu He said speechlessly.
Xie Kun smiled and nodded.
"Then Mr. Jingchuan invited me to Huzhou for fun. Does that have a purpose?"
Xie Kun said: "The purpose is beyond the scope of my question. I definitely want to test your tone. You are a rising star in the imperial examinations of the Great Wei Dynasty. People are also curious about your Taoist stance! Especially since you are a student of Li Zhijie."
"Damn!" Shen Lang was speechless in his heart, "I thought we were just having a clean year-end friendship, but who would have thought that Tang Shunzhi, this bad old man, is coveting his body!"
"Uncle, what's the situation now?"
Xu He originally thought that he was so awesome after traveling through time, but now he realizes that everyone around him is wearing a mask. Now he is really at a loss.
Xie Kun smiled and said: "If my guess is correct, Wu Cifu will talk to you soon!"
