C357 Differences and commonalities (2/2)
As a result, Xiao Wen who was familiar with《 The Actor's Self-cultivation》 did not resist this kind of act at all.
When the group of students initially heard that Xiao Wen had killed a group of Rangers disguised as Songyang Academy students, although they did not look at Xiao Wen with hostility, they also had the thought that ”you may have killed a fake student, but it might not be impossible for you to kill a real student”.
But following Xiao Wen's reply, the student's vigilance that was close to enmity disappeared like smoke in thin air. They all had a good impression of Xiao Wen.
And this was exactly what Xiao Wen wanted to do.
Immediately after, Li Gang said from the side: ”Teacher Xiao, why not come to the lecture hall and talk about the scriptures to the students?”
Hearing that, Xiao Wen hesitated, and asked: ”You want me to lecture on 'Lv's spring and autumn'?”
Isn't this the same as reciting the Book of Explosion at the Vatican?” Xiao Wen couldn't help but retort in his heart. On the other hand, Li Gang revealed an awkward expression. He hesitated for a moment before saying, ”Teacher Xiao, do I remember that you were once a teacher at Ying Chuan Academy? The Yingchuan College's teacher, Cai, was definitely a Confucian scholar. Could it be that he, a Confucian, allows you to lecture on ”Lu Family's Spring and Autumn”?
Scholars these days were actually similar to religious people. They do not go crazy like religious people simply because their differences from other schools are not religious but academic.
Scholars, on the other hand, are basically the same when it comes to dealing with people who are different — or rather, humans are treated the same way when it comes to dealing with people who are different.
It was because of this that Li Gang didn't think that Xiao Wen could teach《 The Lv's spring and autumn》 at Ying Chuan Academy back then.
Xiao Wen naturally understood what Li Gang meant. He said with a hint of self-mockery, ”If I had lectured on < The Lv's spring and autumn > as soon as I went in that year, then I wouldn't have stayed in Ying Chuan Academy for so long. I'll be thrown out in the first place. ”
Hearing that, Li Gang laughed out loud. After laughing for a while, he sighed, ”In this world, the only thing that can make all the students express their opinions is the Ji Dynasty. ”It's a pity that after Qin's extermination, Pan died.”
In those days, the Panjin Academy was created with the support of the government of Qi. It was filled with scholars from various countries. Although the difference between the two was great, some were like Yang Zhu, who believed in ”taking every single grain while benefiting the world, not even doing it”, and believed that as long as everyone cared only for their own interests, they would rule the world, the Yang Xiu who believed in extreme individualism. Some like Mo Zi, but believe in both love, non-offensive, the same, and Yang Zhu are the two extremes.
This sort of extreme people could all live in the same place together. It could only be said that the atmosphere of the school could indeed cause people to seek common ground.
And this, in fact, is due to Qi's belief in Taoism and liberalism.
Unfortunately, even today's liberal Han state could not compare with the former Qi state.
Not to mention that most of the monarchs were people who believed in centralization of power and practiced the law.
Hearing Li Gang's laments, Xiao Wen could not help but ask: ”Is Mr. Li Gang Xun Zi?”
”Exactly.” Li Gang cupped his hands and openly admitted it.
After all, the Confucian Scholar who worshipped the environment of the Panjin Academy was most likely to be Xun Zi. After all, in the past, Xun Zi had served as a wine offering at the Panjin Academy. The Confucian Scholar who had inherited Xun Zi's thoughts would naturally also inherit his obsession with the Panjin Academy.
After understanding Li Gang's identity, Xiao Wen softly sighed, and said: ”The Confucian Scholar that I don't like the most in my life is a Mencius. And his favorite scholar, the Gongyang Confucius was the first. And behind Gong Yang Gui is Xun Zi's Confucius. ”
”If that's the case, then I'll teach Confucianism at Songyang Academy today.”
