HCB Chapter 421 Daqin has only one sage
Chapter 421 Daqin has only one sage
As more and more people gathered in the Royal Academy, the long-awaited debate competition finally kicked off.
The first person to come to power was Kong Xun, the ninth grandson of Confucius and the number one representative of Confucianism.
After all, it is a prominent school that has influenced an era. After a short period of mobilization, Confucian students also regained their former self-confidence.
There is no way, they are completely outdated now, and if they don't cheer for Confucianism, they will really not be able to survive.
Moreover, Kong Xun has done a lot of research on debates.
Every time Confucianism internally discusses Confucianism, Kong Kui can always perform amazingly. The name of this semi-sacred name is derived from these debates.
Therefore, a group of Confucian students still have some confidence in Kong Xun.
Especially after seeing the young students sent by the Royal Academy, all of them smiled.
Tens of thousands of Confucian students cheered in unison, and the scene looked quite impressive.
"After all, Confucianism is a thousand-year-old school, and it still has some foundations."
"I've been a sage's disciple, I've studied hard for many years, and it's easy to deal with these bastards who haven't even grown their hair yet."
"Today, I must show the profound meaning of my Confucianism in front of these 10 people, and let them understand what is the righteous way!"
"Science and engineering, it's completely unscrupulous, it's simply unsightly."
"We must let Daqin return to the righteous path of etiquette!"
Satisfied, Kong Xun and the others kept waving to the supporters in the audience, enjoying the feeling of being under the spotlight, and all of them became proud.
I didn't notice at all that most of the people looked at them with expressions that could no longer be described with contempt.
Even Chunyu Yue couldn't help but sigh.
Daqin's changes in the past few years, he who is in the court, can actually see clearly.
It was precisely because of this that Chun Yuyue hoped to seize the opportunity that the steam engine had not yet come out and it was very difficult to develop it, and wanted to win a chance for Confucianism.
It's just that he didn't expect things to come to this point.
Moreover, Chun Yuyue had to admit that most of the Confucianists were indeed too disappointing.
People like Kong Xun are completely crowned with monkeys, and they can't get on the stage at all!
Just at the moment when Chunyu Yue's mind was changing, there was a loud cheer from the audience.
The momentum and enthusiasm are not comparable to those of Confucianism and others just now.
Chunyu looked over in amazement, only to see a slender and handsome figure appearing in his field of vision like a banished fairy.
After seeing the visitor, Chunyu Yue couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Although Ying Yu came alone, even though he had a spring-like smile on his face, for some reason, Chun Yuyue felt terrified.
With a long sigh, Chunyu Yue's face suddenly became very ugly.
"See Your Royal Highness!"
Chunyu Yue let out a long sigh, and saluted Ying Yu.
"Free gift!"
"Today the Japanese prince is here to be the referee, you can speak freely!"
"Are these people the representatives of Confucianism?"
"As far as the crown prince knows, Confucianism places the most emphasis on etiquette, why is it like this today?"
Ying Yu smiled faintly.
The onlookers also whispered.
"Yes, what about their etiquette?"
"His Royal Highness came in person, and they turned a blind eye. This can be a crime of disrespect, right?"
"It really is a group of scum with inconsistent words and deeds!"
"You don't know, the so-called great scholar Zheng Yuan standing on the stage is over 60 years old, and married a concubine who is only [-] years old. He is old-hearted and has excellent morals!"
The bursts of laughter made Kong Xun and the others even more unable to get off the stage.
"Hurry up and see His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Chunyu Yue glanced speechlessly at the pig teammate behind him, and could only bite the bullet and say angrily.
Only then did Kong Xun and the others come to their senses, and reluctantly saluted Ying Yu together.
The smile on the corner of Ying Yu's mouth deepened.
I just like how unwilling and helpless you are.
But the good show has just begun, so Ying Yu didn't continue to embarrass Kong Xun and others, but waved his hand and said:
"Since people from both sides have arrived, the prince will announce that the debate competition has officially started."
As Ying Yu's voice fell, Kong Xun, who had been preparing for a long time, was the first to jump out and put forward their argument:
"Zi Ri: Prosper in poetry, establish in ritual, and succeed in music. That is to say, people's learning should be based on poetry, ritual and music, but now Daqin is advocating some science and technology heresy and business, which makes people impetuous. Isn't this Is it against ethics?"
Although they only read a few books of the words of sages and sages in their whole life, but because they have read them countless times, Kong Xun and others are almost familiar with "The Analects of Confucius" and others, and they can give arguments casually.
Especially this sentence is the most proud of Kong and others after discussing it!
As soon as the artifact came out, Kong Xun and his party were all boosted in confidence, and even started to feel a little embarrassed.
Many viewers frowned. After all, Confucius was very prestigious and influential in Daqin, and it was really hard to refute for a while.
Only Ying Yu still had a faint smile on his face. He had full confidence in the students of the Royal Academy.
"His Royal Highness, the time is up, the other party should answer our question, otherwise we will lose."
Zheng Yuan spoke triumphantly, not at all ashamed by the booing from Xihou just now.
"The junior Zhuang does not know, apply to speak."
"It seems that several great Confucian scholars have not studied the Analects very thoroughly!"
On the side of the Royal Academy, a young student stood up immediately, and slowly came to the crowd, first saluted respectfully, and then spoke.
Kong Xun and the others couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then they were overjoyed.
What they are most worried about is that the other party does not recognize the words of Confucius, but now this brat is actually questioning their research on "The Analects of Confucius", which is what they are happy to see.
"In this way, does it mean that my little friend understands "The Analects of Confucius" better than this old man?"
Kong Xun asked confidently with a smile on his face.
"If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. Isn't that what Confucius said?"
"And Confucius himself admitted that he was a disciple of Taoist Lao Tzu, and there is also a sentence in Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching": Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature. It is precisely to actively explore all things. Origin, this is also the original intention of the way of science and engineering, is it possible that Mr. Kong wants to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors for Confucius?"
"Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth. Only by making Daqin develop better and the people live a better life is the real way!"
"Confucianism used to be brilliant, but now it's outdated!"
"The reason why my Daqin can have today's prosperity is because of His Royal Highness, the development of science and technology, and the revitalization of business, not the words of sages in your mouth."
Zhuang Bushi paused for a moment, and then said loudly: "There is only one sage in my Great Qin, and that is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
When the voice fell, the people cheered loudly.
Everyone has a steelyard in their hearts, and they know very well who makes them live a good life.
Confucius, Mencius, and other sages are indeed worthy of respect.
But in front of Ying Yu, the prince of the Qin Dynasty, there is no comparison at all!
Zheng Yuan, Kong Xun and the others looked at each other with distressed expressions on their faces.
For a while, they really didn't know how to refute Zhuang Buzhi's argument.
At the very beginning of this debate, he was actually forced into such a situation by the other party, and he was still a kid.
Seeing that no one came out from his side, Zheng Yuan gritted his teeth, spat out a mouthful of old blood, and fell down straight.
There was an uproar immediately.
