Zhao Ran is flipping through the new issue of "Bagua". The title of the first article is "Comparison of Su Luzi in Ancient and Modern Times".
"Su Lu Zi" is an important Taoist classic. It starts from the origin of Tao, from which the principles of virtue, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, trust and so on are derived. In fact, Taoism through this classic , incorporated Confucian thought into the category of Tao, and realized the ideological system in which Confucianism is above Taoism and Confucianism is at the end of Taoism.
The so-called contrast between ancient and modern times refers to the craze for textual research that has emerged in the past two years. The focus of textual research is this scripture. Some Confucian students took out an "ancient version of Su Luzi" from nowhere, compared it with the "Su Luzi" included in the Taoist Canon, and claimed that the current version of "Su Luzi" was not Zhang Hu's original canon. There are many places that have been modified and are not Tang's original text.
Zhao Ran is very familiar with "Su Luzi". When he was the abbot of Baimayuan, he taught this scripture when he was promoted to the throne and gave lectures, so he was also more concerned about this statement. After an in-depth understanding, I found that the parts deleted and added in the so-called "Tang version of "Su Lu Zi"" are precisely the guiding texts that originate from Tao.
The purpose of the emergence of the so-called ancient version of "Su Lu Zi" has become clear. Zhao Ran also heard that in the past two years, the provincial examinations in various places have begun to include a large number of the above-mentioned contents in "Su Lu Zi". It is okay to include it, but it cannot be included in this way.
Zhao Ran is aware of the current disagreements in the Taoist sect about the route. Although in terms of the overall situation, he has little influence and cannot speak much, he can speak in the Songfan area, at least in the county examinations and In the three levels of government examination and college examination, he must fulfill his responsibilities and firmly grasp the ideological level.
So after Zhao Ran communicated with Bai Tengming, the Evangelistic Affairs Research Office of Tianhe Palace Scripture Hall began to organize manpower to study and write this article comparing ancient and modern times, refuting the so-called ancient version, and pointing out that its core idea is not to "restore the classics." , but tampering with the classics.
Zhao Ran was basically satisfied with the article, but was not satisfied with some of the content in the text, so he asked the two Taoist priests who were the main writers to meet in his study.
"The article is well written. Generally speaking, it clearly expresses the ideas we want to express, and the words of criticism are also very powerful. I want to say thank you for your hard work."
The two main Taoist writers listened carefully and hurriedly said a few words of humility.
Zhao Ran continued: "It stands to reason that Jiang Gaogong is in charge of your Evangelism Affairs Research Office, and there are others above him who will talk about it. It is not my turn to say anything"
The two main writers hurriedly said: "No matter what you say, who doesn't know that the establishment of the research laboratory was based on your suggestion, and who doesn't know that you are an expert in the study of classics and meanings. Please give me more advice. "
Zhao Ran nodded and said: "Okay, I will give you some opinions for reference only. When you give examples, you must grasp the appropriateness and don't be too affected by the original text, such as those of heavenly induction and prophecy. He said that we must carefully distinguish between unconfirmed hearsay and must be strictly controlled and can only be written after being verified.¡±
"You always mean"
"Look, for example, this article says that when the son of the leader of the Huoshan tribe was born, there were thunderous thunders and rain without clouds. Where did you hear this? Have you ever verified it? There are always all kinds of strange rumors in the more than forty tribes of the Song Dynasty. The purpose of many rumors is to strengthen the authority of the leader nobles. It is okay to fool the people, but we in the Taoist sect should know better and not be fooled all together So my opinion is that unverified rumors must be used with caution."
After finishing speaking, I saw the two main Taoist priests looking at each other, as if they were about to speak but hesitated. I noticed something was wrong, so I asked: "If you have anything to say, feel free to say it. You will know my character as you get to know me more, and I am willing to accept advice with an open mind." .Did I say something wrong?¡±
The two main writers said: "Whatever you say, it is indeed a true insight. We will confirm it carefully and revise it again when we go back."
Two days later, the newly revised manuscript was sent to Zhao Ran's desk. Zhao Ran looked through it and after revising it, two examples were deleted, but Huo Shanbu's example was still on it.
Zhao Ran was a little unhappy at first, and then a little surprised. When did what he said stop working? Could it be that Jiang Gaogong did it on purpose? Logically speaking, it shouldn¡¯t be. Jiang Gaogong was the original high-gong Jiang Zhibiao of Wuji Academy. When Zhao Ran used Chu Yangcheng's tiger skin to appoint Wuji Academy's top and lower positions, Jiang Zhibiao was also on the list and was "arranged by him" to go to Xizhenwu Palace to do high-level work. .
After Bai Tengming was elected as the abbot, Jiang Zhibiao was promoted to the capital of Xizhenwu Palace. He was Bai Tengming's confidant. This time he followed Bai Tengming to Tianhe Palace as a high official. He only waited for the current capital to speak. The first candidate to be replaced.
Zhao Ran recalled that when Jiang Gaogong came to Tianhe Palace last year, he showed great respect for him. They had gotten along well with each other in the past two months and had not committed any crimes.It's the kind of low-level mistake of unbalanced mentality that many people will make. What's more, if he wants to be promoted to the capital of Jin, he must get the matter discussed in the three capitals, and he must not dare to offend himself.
Therefore, the factor of Jiang Gaogong can be ruled out. As for this person now, he is not in good health. Apart from participating in the discussions in the three capitals, he rarely interferes with specific affairs.
Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled to himself. With his position in Songfan, no matter whether it was a palace or a jungle in ten directions, who could be so blind and dare to fight against him? It's just due to my past habits, I'm completely overthinking it.
So he called the two main writers over and asked frankly: "Is Huo Shanbu's example true?"
One of them nodded hurriedly: "This is something I have personally experienced and witnessed, so I wrote it down. In March last year, I went to the Yongzhen tribe for research. It happened that the wife of Huo Tong, the leader of the Huoshan tribe, was giving birth. The sky was clear at that time. There was thunder on the ground, accompanied by thunder and heavy rain that formed from nowhere, lasting for a stick of incense."
Zhao Ran was stunned: "Did you see it with your own eyes?"
"I don't care if I dare not coax you to death."
"That's it" Leaning on the back of the chair and pondering for a moment, Zhao Ran said, "Take me there."
?? Huoshan is located in the northwest of Yongzhen County, less than 200 miles away from Songfan County. It is covered with grasslands and gentle slopes. It is not difficult to travel on horseback. Zhao Ran took the Taoist priest who was the chief writer and rode their horses towards Huoshan.
Taoist Nangui was hovering in the sky. Huangshan Jun, who took the initiative to change posts with Shen Jiangzi because of boredom, was a few miles away. The two spirit demons closely ensured Zhao Ran's safety.
After walking for two hours, a large swamp appeared in front of us, with various shrubs, small trees, and ponds densely covered in it, and a black and green "blanket" spread among the rolling gentle slopes.
The main writer often traveled in the direction of Yongzhen and was familiar with the geography. He pointed to the swamp in front of him and said: "This swamp is more than ten miles in radius. The locals call it Heikouzi, which means that once you go in, you can't get out. We need to go south and go around. OK."
