It turned out that no one else was asleep except Bai. From the moment Ying Ruyu arrived, everyone has been using the chat group to watch the live broadcast of the conversation between Ye Feng and Ying Ruyu, and send real-time barrages to communicate.
So when Ying Ruyu made that bold request, Ye Feng's five wives almost rushed out and beat Ye Feng. I just held back at the last moment. Ye Feng was also very depressed about this. Why was he getting beaten even though he didn't do anything?
Therefore, Ye Feng naturally does not need to explain anything to anyone. After all, during the communication between Ye Feng and Ying Ruyu, Ye Feng had already explained everything in the chat group.
So far, Ye Feng has not yet brought Xi Ruo and Mei Jiu into the chat group. After all, the two of them were still in Ye Feng's "investigation" stage. Even though Ye Feng is so powerful now, and seeing through has almost become a unique top skill in the world, Ye Feng still does not dare to underestimate the capriciousness of people's hearts and their unpredictable arrogance and arrogance.
. . .
Now that Mei Jiu had been discovered, she was naturally too lazy to hide. She went directly to sit on the stone stool next to Ye Feng, and asked Ye Feng for a cup of tea. At the same time, when passing by Xiruo, he looked at Xiruo like a silly girl. Although this girl Xiruo is usually stupid enough, at this moment she is even more stupid in front of this scumbag Ye Feng. For Mei Jiu, after all, a person worthy of trusting Xi Ruo is actually a scumbag. Is it still worth trusting him? Mei Jiu needs to continue to observe this issue for a while before making a judgment.
Ye Feng took out two new tea sets, placed them on the stone table, and poured hot tea. After all, it was late at night and in the yard outside the house, drinking some hot tea could warm up the body. Seeing this, Xiruo also sat down after hesitating for a few seconds.
The atmosphere of silence spread in the yard. After a moment, Xiruo suddenly asked: "Ye Feng, I have a question I have been wanting to ask you? Can you answer me?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Okay."
. . .
The narrator said: Do you think Xiruo is confessing?
Ye Yu said: Are you so in love that you have no brain? !
. . .
Xiruo asked Ye Feng: "Ye Feng, are you the reincarnation of Mr. Yangming?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the chat group instantly understood why Xi Ruo had always wanted to ask Ye Feng this question.
Regardless of the fact that Ye Feng and Mr. Yangming are both powerful figures who can combine the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism into one. More importantly, Yangming Academy was founded by Mr. Yangming. Now another person who combines "Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism" has returned to Yangming Academy again after Mr. Yangming's death countless years ago. For such things, most people will have this idea of fateful reincarnation.
Therefore, it is normal for Xiruo to suspect that Ye Feng is the reincarnation of Mr. Yangming.
Hearing this, Ye Feng shook his head and said, "I am not the reincarnation of Mr. Yang Ming. If people like me were the reincarnation of Mr. Yang Ming, then his coffin would not be able to hold it down."
Ye Feng continued: "Xiruo, do you know what Mr. Yangming's academic philosophy is?"
Xiruo said: "It's the study of mind."
Ye Feng said: "Yes, then next, I will tell you the difference between the three families in one and Mr. Yangming's.
"Mr. Yangming's theory of mind can be summarized as follows: there is no good or disgusting body, there are good and evil actions, knowing good and evil is conscience, and doing good and eliminating evil is the investigation of things. It has three core propositions: the heart is reason, and the combination of knowledge and action 1. To conscience.
"Xinxue is a school of Confucianism, so the "principles" it talks about are Confucian ethics. It takes the "theory of good nature" as the starting point for thinking, but my theory is indeed based on the "theory of evil nature" as the starting point for thinking.
"The science of mind emphasizes that 'there is nothing outside the mind, nothing outside the mind, and no reason outside the mind'. The distinction between good and evil in the heart is conscience, which uses the conscience in the heart as the standard for judging the good and evil of external things. There is no thought of good or evil in the heart. That is to say, the highest good is to define the good and evil in the world from one's own perspective. From this point of view, there is nothing wrong. After all, although we live in this world of countless living beings, in the final analysis, we still have to live for ourselves, because as human beings, After "seeing the world" and "seeing all living beings", one has to "see oneself" in the end. Therefore, as a person's ultimate pursuit of self, the correctness of this cannot be denied.
"But I am different. I have always believed that 'good things should be judged by the heart, and bad things should be judged by actions.' My criteria for judging good and evil are based on the theory of human nature and evil. The point I put forward is: if you can be evil and do evil, you are doing evil; Being able to do evil but not doing it is doing good; being able to do good but doing good is not necessarily good; being able to do good but not doing it is close to evil.
"The first two sentences of "Being able to be evil and doing evil are doing evil; being able to be evil and not doing it is doing good" embodies what I think are the standards of good and evil. Taking the ability to do evil as the starting point, we judge good by the choices we make. Evil. I judge from the perspective of external objects. After all, "bad things are judged by deeds." Once it involves the heart, it becomes blurry, which corresponds to the last two sentences: "Being able to be good may not necessarily be good; being able to be good is not necessarily good." Failure to do so is close to evil. "This involves the Tai Chi thinking I told you before. The latter two situations are in the third thinking angle of Tai Chi thinking - chaos.
"My theory is to judge good and evil from the perspective of external objects. So it can almost be said to be tit for tat with Mr. Yangming.
"Although I have big differences with Mr. Yangming, there is some overlap between Mr. Yangming and I in terms of "good things depend on the heart".
"The reason why this is so is because the theory of mind believes that the heart is inherently neither good nor evil, and I believe that the heart is a chaotic body of good and evil intertwined. What needs to be explained here is that the human heart is inherently good and the human heart is inherently evil. The starting point of thought does not mean that the human heart is inherently good or evil. This is something you must remember to distinguish.
"In the study of mind, it is believed that as long as one seeks knowledge through investigation of things, one can achieve a heart without selfish motives and material desires. The principles in the heart are actually the principles of all things in the world. The principles of heaven are not based on empty talk, but on knowledge through investigation of things. Through practice and introspection, that is, "the combination of knowledge and action" 1. In terms of emphasizing practice and introspection, Mr. Yangming and I have the same views. Although our starting points are different, he and I have reached the same destination by different paths.
"If we want to make an analogy, although Mr. Yangming and I both come from the theory of "Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism", Mr. Yangming is the anode in Tai Chi Pisces, while mine is the cathode in Tai Chi Pisces. . All things in the world bear yin and embrace yang, and yin and yang are mutually reinforcing each other. Mr. Yangming’s theory of mind comes from Confucianism, and my theory comes from Taoism. There is no superiority between the two. The difference between them is just different perspectives of thinking. , it can be deduced that in the end, it must be different paths to the same destination.
"Although Mr. Yangming and I have different views, I highly respect his thoughts and theories.
"And I am just an ordinary person, so, Xiruo, you are exalting me too much by saying that I am the reincarnation of Mr. Yangming. I don't deserve it."
