Xiong Wuliang's words made the entire dining hall audible!
No outstanding knowledge?
The Confucian giant was startled at first, and then seemed to have heard some joke——
"Is there no outstanding learning in the world today?"
"The Lord's tone is so loud...it's the most ridiculous thing in the world!"
"The world's hundreds of schools of thought have been circulating for many years, each has made great achievements, and created countless good stories... but is it so unbearable in the hearts of the kings?"
"Aren't all the schools here considered outstanding in the eyes of the king?"
"Then I dare to ask you, Lord - what is the most outstanding knowledge in your heart?"
"I also ask you to write a book and write a biography in person, to show the world the 'exhibition' in your mind, and also to let me and the old people gain insights... I also hope that you can give me some advice!"
…
Although they understand that the Confucian giant is deliberately stirring up trouble, all the masters present are still unavoidably unhappy——
They all inherited the knowledge of the ancestors and spent their whole lives studying and expanding... They all have firm confidence in their own knowledge, and it can even be said to be a firm belief.
Everyone firmly believes that time will prove everything - their own is the most outstanding one!
did not expect……
Quyang Hou rejected everyone in just a few words!
Who can accept it?
Even if Quyang Hou Tianzong is a genius, is he too arrogant at this moment?
The saying "Looking at the world, there is no outstanding learning" - it really hurts the public!
The Mohist tycoon looked unhappy and stood up to ask: "May I ask you, sir, I, the Mohist sect, love non-aggression and are barefoot chivalrous people. We put righteousness first and speak out for the weak in the world. Isn't that considered a sign of learning?"
The Taoist giant stood up and said: "My sect emphasizes tranquility and resting with the people... How do you think of it in the hearts of the princes?"
The great strategist: "My Zongheng faction uses the world as a chessboard and all the countries as chess pieces. If Su Qin comes out of the mountain, he can unite the six countries. If Zhang Yi takes action, he can unite the world. With a single move, he can reverse the general trend of the world."
"Isn't it considered a prominent scholar in the heart of the king?"
Xiong Wuliang frowned... Zhuo, how dare you mention Zhang Yi in front of the Chu people?
How did this guy become a powerful political strategist with such low emotional intelligence? Did you buy it with money?
Do you dare to go to Yingdu and mention these two words in front of our king? Your head is twisted!
…
Huang Xie and Le Yi looked at each other and felt that something was wrong!
The words that Marquis Quyang just said were so powerful in inciting hatred.
In an instant, all the firepower was attracted... As expected of you, Xiong Wuliang.
Finished.
After today, Marquis Quyang will probably offend all the literati in the world...
It doesn't necessarily smell that bad when it's described in history books...
Le Yi grabbed Xiong Wuliang and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, be careful what you say."
Huang Xie also quickly put on a smile and raised his hands to the masters: "Everyone, everyone - I believe that the young prince has no intention of looking down on the world school. I have misunderstood, misunderstood..."
Huang Xie hurriedly winked at Xiong Wuliang again, the meaning was obvious——
Please, stop talking!
Why are you still talking! You don't want to die!
On the contrary, the Confucian giant became energetic and shouted sternly at the disciples behind him: "Quick! Record it carefully!"
"Every word spoken by Marquis Qu Yang must be recorded truthfully!"
"Don't miss a word... I want to be famous throughout the ages, today!"
The Confucian disciples hurriedly took out their pens and papers, staring at Xiong Wuliang attentively, ready to write at any time...
…
Xiong Wuliang smiled slightly and spoke slowly in front of everyone -
"What I said about 'there is no explicit learning in the world' does not mean that the knowledge of various schools of thought is not good enough - it means that the concept of 'explicit learning' is inherently hypocritical."
"What kind of theory is an excellent theory? In my eyes, it is very simple——"
"It is conducive to the people's prosperous life, it is conducive to the country's military strength, it is conducive to domestic harmony and stability..."
"In a word - it has a real role in promoting social progress!"
"If you can do this, it is an excellent theory... If you can't do this, no matter how much you hype it, it will be useless in the end!"
Xiong Wuliang's words were resounding. Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly audible in the quiet dining hall.
All the masters and students fell into deep thought.
It seems... makes sense?
Hundreds of schools of thought all believed that their own school was a prominent one, but there was never any clear and clear standard of judgment... On the contrary, Marquis Quyang was concise and to the point, giving a judgment plan in a few sentences.
If it can promote social progress, it is a good theory!
Le Yi was attracted by Xiong Wuliang's words, and for a moment he forgot to cover Xiong Wuliang's mouth again, and couldn't help but ask: "In this case, what is explicit learning?"
"Do we have to deduce one by one which theory has made the greatest contribution to society? Compare them with each other?"
"Then how do you explain what the Lord just said, 'There is no outstanding learning in the world'?"
Xiong Wuliang smiled freely and seemed to have a plan in mind.
Under everyone's gaze, Xiong Wuliang walked to the center of the dining hall and said loudly——
"What is explicit learning? The best knowledge? The best school of thought?"
Xiong Wuliang nodded gently at the Mohist giant: "The Mohists believe in simplicity. They often travel around the world barefoot, helping those in need and those in need. The ancient path is heartwarming... As an official or a clerk, you should be able to calm down one party - at least you will not become a corrupt official."
"When it comes to resting with the people and building up national strength... they are also the strengths of Taoism - by the way, our country, Chu, has been fighting for years, and now is the time when we need to rest and recuperate."
"Revising laws, improving laws, punishing rape and eradicating evil are all things that the disciples of the illegal family cannot implement."
"The world is a time of great strife, and military strategists are good at training and fighting - no matter which vassal country they are in, a master of military strategism will always be a welcome guest."
"Not to mention farmers - as long as people in the world still need to eat and grow food, farmers will be the best!"
"Speaking of diplomacy..." Xiong Wuliang frowned, obviously disgusted by Zhang Yi, but he continued: "My country of Chu once suffered a big loss here... I think diplomats are quite good at this. "
"Now let's analyze it - who is the outstanding scholar?"
The Confucian giant seemed to have eaten a fly - Xiong Wuliang praised every school of thought, but did not mention Confucianism.
Blanch!
"Marquis Quyang is quite eloquent... Even if you talk in a garish way, you still can't explain who is the outstanding scholar!" Seeing that the eyes of the masters of various schools present had softened, the Confucian giant decided to seize on the 'explicit scholar'. Don’t let go of the topic.
Xiong Wuliang laughed loudly: "How stupid can a Confucian giant be?"
"This prince has said this, don't you understand?"
The Confucian giant was so angry that he trembled: "Presumptuous... it is an insult to politeness, an insult to elegance!"
Xiong Wuliang ignored it and said with a magnanimous smile: "In my humble opinion, each faction has its own strengths. No one can replace others. They are all outstanding in their respective fields!"
"If the ruler can know how to appoint people and make them perform their duties, then the world will be in great order! Thousands of common people will be blessed!"
"If there is true learning in the world, it would be——"
