As the fourth day came, the appearance of a name shocked the entire audience, including His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Six Ministers, who also cheered up again.
The eunuch Sanbao clearly shouted that he was a native of Xindu, Jizhou, Hebei Province, a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty in the previous dynasty, a doctor during the founding of this dynasty, a supervisor of the Imperial College, and an old master who later retired and returned to his hometown to establish Lushan Academy in Hebei Province. He is the only five remaining Daqian. Gaiwenda, one of the great Confucians, asked for an audience and wrote a letter to express his views.
By the way, Gai Wenda was a native of Xindu, Jizhou, Hebei Province. He was a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty in the late period of the previous dynasty. He studied under the great Confucianism, recited a thousand words a day and read the scriptures thoroughly. After the founding of the Qian Dynasty, he became a doctor of the Imperial Academy, and later a supervisor. It can be said that he is famous all over the world and has peach and plum blossoms all over the world.
He is about eighty years old this year and is recognized as a model of great Confucianism in Daqian. Together with Yan Shigu and Kong Yingda from Hongwen Hall, he is ranked among the five great Confucians in Daqian, and this person is the first.
Shortly after Xiao Yi came to Jinling City and announced that he would hold a Southeast Political Conference, he heard that this person had come from Jizhou.
It’s hard to imagine that someone in his eighties can still travel long distances.
As the saying goes, those who come are not good and those who are good will not come.
Many people also know the reason why this great scholar had to travel all the way from Jizhou to Jinling City at this time.
Nothing more than the dispute between Confucianism and New Learning.
On the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, this person finally arrived at Jinling City. As usual, he first met with the Prince of the Supervisory State. Many scholars also took this opportunity to visit this great scholar, with the intention of getting closer to each other. However, Gaiwenda always thanked the guests behind closed doors. He seemed to be full of energy and waited for Southeast Asia to ask questions. The convening of the political conference seems to have a clear goal.
When Xiao Yi first promoted the new learning, he originally planned to come to Fuque to submit a letter. However, at that time, Xiao Yi also knew that such a rigid promotion of the new learning would definitely arouse resistance from many people. Confucianism, which has been passed down for thousands of years, Culture has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Both the government and the public are Confucian scholars. Even Zhang Jiuling does not want to do this. He only wants to take care of himself when he is old and maintain his reputation as a veteran of three dynasties.
But I couldn't stand Xiao Yi's tough tactics, so I had no choice but to stand up and be the representative of the new learning. With the new learning concepts proposed by Xiao Yi, and with the development of various experiments, many things were verified, even if Feitian was also going on, and Zhang Jiuling really wanted to implement the new learning.
Because he could see that Xinxue would definitely build an unprecedented prosperous age for this vast territory and for His Royal Highness, the Mingjun Prince who had never been seen before.
The arrival of a prosperous age will be accompanied by the assistance of literature and culture, which complement each other.
If it weren't for Zhang Jiuling, a veteran of three dynasties and a great Confucian himself, the implementation of the new learning would have been even slower.
In order to prevent Zhang Jiuling from becoming the target of public criticism, he also knew that the promotion of new learning must not be too impatient or take too big a step.
Therefore, Xiao Yi allowed some great Confucian scholars to publish their own literary works in the Di newspaper to promote their own views. Even if he promoted Confucianism in the Di newspaper, he was willing. After all, it is better to block than to open up the people's wisdom. There will always be a reader for every newspaper. Over time, the people will definitely hear and learn some truths from it, and it will not be the same as before.
This is why a great scholar like Gai Wenda did not go directly to the capital and wrote a letter in front of the palace in Chang'an City.
I need to give His Highness the Crown Prince some face.
Of course, he is already over eighty years old, which is considered a rare age in ancient times. If he can reach this age, he understands people's hearts.
If you really go to Chang'an Fuque to submit a letter, it will definitely be a fight to the death.
His Highness the Crown Prince is at the peak of the sun, and he is already a man with both feet in the ground. How could he still be so tough with His Highness the Crown Prince?
The worldly knowledge is also a university question.
This time, he was just taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show his 'strongness' to His Royal Highness.
It can be said that it has attracted everyone's attention.
In fact, with Gai Wenda's registration, not only was everyone paying attention, the whole place was in a state of commotion, and the prince Xiao Yi also rarely smiled and looked expectant.
In fact, he also wanted to see what kind of performance this world-renowned great Confucian, who was also a representative figure of Confucianism, would perform in front of him this time.
The implementation of the New Learning was not ideal. Naturally, there was resistance from Confucian scholars and opposition from the great Confucians. Confucianism was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If we can use this opportunity to let people have an understanding of the New Learning, let the New Learning and Confucianism There is a comparison, which one is more practical, and it will naturally be clear at a glance.
More practical knowledge is the real knowledge.
After a while, I saw an old man with a soft futou, plain long clothes and a gray beard stepping onto the deer platform with the support of a middle-aged Confucian scholar. When he entered the main hall, he felt that his posture was calm and his body was straight. , and then caused countless "for consultation" to raise their heads to look, wanting to take a look at what the first great Confucian scholar looked like?
After arriving in the main hall and in front of Prince Xiao Yi, the middle-aged Confucian scholar let go of Gai Wenda.
And Gavinda naturally had to salute.
Xiao Yi raised his hand first and smiled directly at Gavinda.
"It's okay. I'll give you a seat if you come. Since you're old, you don't need to be polite. Just sit down and talk freely."
"Your Highness, the etiquette cannot be discarded." Gaiwenda insisted on bowing and saluting.
"Gavinda in white body, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
After all, it's because he's older, so no matter how polite he is, it's actually not very standard. It seems like he's a little rude.
Naturally, this old waist is not easy to bend to the standard.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for granting me a seat."
Everyone looked at Gaiwenda's behavior, and some people naturally admired him. A great scholar is a great scholar, and he can be in front of His Highness the Crown Prince without fear.
There are also some people who are naturally just watching the fun.
After all, they are businessmen, and businessmen always have only a little respect for great scholars, but they don't have that much respect.
There are some, naturally, there are some concerns.
Today's battle is a dispute between Confucianism and New Learning. With His Highness the Crown Prince's reputation, they don't have much confidence in Gavinda.
The six ministers were worried. They were afraid that during the debate on the scriptures, the great scholar would be so angry that he would explain it directly to the main hall, which would result in losses outweighing the gains and the impact would be greater.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi also became serious.
The other party gave him a blow as soon as he came. If he wanted to strike first, he didn't have to respect his elders. Anyone who blocked him from implementing the new learning was his enemy.
"Young Master Gai is here, do you have anything to teach me?"
