Chapter 13: Meet Yangming 2
After Wang Shouren passed through the "Dragon Field Enlightenment", he began his way to teach and solve puzzles. Wang Shouren was the head of the military department for three years. For his opposition to the eunuch Liu Jin, he was demoted to Yicheng in Guizhou Longchang (the county seat of Xiuwen County) in the first year of the Ming Dynasty. After twists and turns on the way to the Dragon Field, he successfully escaped from the pursuit of Jinyiwei and finally realized in the Dragon Field. After Liu Jin was killed, he served as the governor of Luling County and became the young minister of the Southern Taifu Temple. At that time, Wang Qiong served as the secretary of the Ministry of War, thinking that Shouren had immortal talent and recommended the court. In 11 years, Zhengde was appointed as the imperial historian of the right capital and succeeded as the governor of southern Jiangxi.
After careful reminiscence, Cao Muwen remembered that Wang Shouren was appreciated by Wang Qiong when he was a minister of the Ministry of War, promoted to the imperial envoy of Tongdu, and succeeded him as the governor of Southern Jiangxi. In this way, Cao Muwen has a clue in his heart, and now Mr. Wang Shouren is already a governor.
"Hmm... Is this a private visit on the street? Are those two personal bodyguards? Cao Muwen secretly said that he could not say that he had offended such a generation of masters. But if you don't talk for a long time, you will naturally be suspicious of the opposite side.
In a hurry, Wang Shouren has been preaching for many years, and there are many disciples. It's better to pretend to have read one or two of his works to muddle through.
Cao Muwen hurriedly straightened himself and said meticulously, "It seems that you are Mr. Yang Ming, Wang Shouren. Oh, what a disrespect. The younger generation didn't know Mount Tai and bumped into Mr. It's really offended.
"Oh, it seems that Brother Cao really knows me?" Wang Shouren was not recognized as a "symptom" on the street at all, but he was relaxed.
"Since I read Mr.'s classics, I have been deeply touched and admired by him. How can you be a brother? The younger generation is actually a disciple or two. Cao Muwen thought about it over and over again, and now pretends to be Wang Yangming's "believer" first, which is not bad. As the saying goes: leaning against a big tree is good for the cool. Wang Shouren's big tree is absolutely thick and hard, and at least he won't fight against the wrong team. The biggest disaster of Wang Shouren's life should be that he was hunted down by Jinyiwei in Longchang, Guizhou... and so on!
Jinyiwei? I'm not just a brocade guard!" Cao Muwen suddenly had such an epiphany in his heart, and the black line behind his head suddenly appeared, and he suddenly felt very uneasy. "Is it true that Mr. Wang still has bad memories of Jinyiwei? If his true identity is known by him... What should this be?" Although Cao Muwen has this concern, after all, it is a later story, and he hasn't found it yet. Most importantly, Cao Muwen remembered that Wang Shouren's greatest credit could be regarded as the suppression of Zhu Chenhao's rebellion. If you follow him, you will really quell the rebellion in the future, and you will also rise to the top!?
"Hey, I won't wait." Cao Muwen's joy in his heart seems to be an eye-opener and give me a chance to get ahead!
"Sir, it's really amazing to be admired by the younger generation. Since I'm lucky to see Mr. Yang Ming today, I have to broadcast one or two juniors. Cao Muwen said so, and he also figured out Xiao Jiujiu in his heart. Wang Shouren's study said that he had read most of it, and basically knew that he was inseparable from ten. After a while, he would talk to Wang Shouren. As long as there was something in line with his theory, Cao Muwen would half-know the attachment and make an image and understand whether he had a thorough understanding. Hey hey, generally learned people like their disciples like this. They are neither too smart nor too stupid. If you are too smart, you will compare the teacher, and if you are too stupid, you will humiliate your reputation. Therefore, "ten orifices through nine orifices" is the best.
Wang Shouren also showed a slightly surprised expression when he heard it. So, do you still know some of my preaching knowledge? That's interesting." Wang Shouren said so. As soon as Cao Muwen heard it, he felt that there was a play, but his voice revealed interest. It seemed that it was Cao Muwen's respectful speech that made him really become half a Yangming student.
"It seems that if you really have a heart, it doesn't matter if we ask each other for advice." Wang Shouren thought for a moment and agreed.
He turned around, asked the two young people behind him, and said, "Aren't we going to visit the Tengwang Pavilion today!" If it doesn't matter, why don't you add this one? The two young people nodded and said yes.
Wang Shouren said to Cao Muwen, "We were planning to go to Tengwang Pavilion by here. If you are interested, why don't we go on a tour together?"
When Cao Muwen heard this, he agreed in his heart. He hurriedly said, "The younger generation also intended to go to the Tengwang Pavilion. Soon after the younger generation came to Nanchang, they also planned to visit some scenic spots and historical sites. I'm very lucky if I can go with my husband.
"Okay, in that case, let's go together." Wang Shouren said so and looked back at the other two people who had been playing soy sauce.
He came to the mountainous areas of southwest China, where thousands of mountains and mountains were thin, and Miao and officials lived together, which gave him a new understanding of the central thought of University. Wang Shouren believed that the heart is the foundation of everything, and everything in the world is the product of the heart (the mind is reason). Recognizing that "the way of saints, I am self-sufficient, and those who seek reason for things are wrong." History is known as Longchang's enlightenment. In the quiet and difficult environment of Longchang, Wang Yangming reflected day and night on his experiences over the years. In the middle of the night, he suddenly had an epiphany, which was the famous "Dragon Field Enlightenment".
He wrote "The Life of the Dragon Training Field" during this period. Many of his disciples were puzzled by his theory of "unreasonable outside, nothing outside the heart" and asked him for advice: What does the flowers and trees in Nanshan have to do with my heart? He replied, "When you don't see this flower, this flower returns to silence with your heart. When you look at this flower, you will understand the color of this flower for a moment. Then you will know that this flower is not outside your heart.
Seven years later, he himself narrated this slightly legendary enlightenment: keeping benevolence and drowning in the habit of words and regulations, he not only knows a little about engaging in formal learning, but also suffers from the disturbance of public talk, and is helplessness. Because of the old and release, he is happy to know the heart, thinking that the study of saints is here! However, the teaching of Confucius is different from each other, and the daily use of measures is often flawless; according to the violation of the round trip, and it is believed and suspicious. After that, he was trapped in the dragon field, and he was moved by the heart and forbearance. He felt as if he had an understanding, experienced exploration, and then more cold and summer, and proved the five classics and four sons, and he was as if he had decided to break rivers and let the seas. Then sigh that the way of the saint is as smooth as the road.
Cao Muwen was curious about the two people around him who came with him. When he was on the road, he asked for advice. These two men are also extraordinary and don't know how to call them good. Cao Muwen thought to himself that anyway, these people are also flattering and will not make mistakes.
The one, who was slightly short, had a slightly round face, slender eyes and a slightly pale face, first arched his hand and said modestly, "Xu Ai is your disciple. This..." Yang Ai turned his hand to another slender young man, and his tone seemed to be hesitant. He didn't know how to introduce it?
At this time, this person spoke first: "My surname is Wang Mingyin. If you are a disciple of Mr. Yangming, it is not quite. There seems to be self-humility in his tone, and he can't say whether he is.
Cao Muwen thought for a little and fell to these two. Xu Ai is one of the earliest disciples of Wang Shouren. Xu Ai is also a philosopher and official of the Ming Dynasty. His name is Ren, known as Hengshan. He is a native of Mayan, Yuyao, Zhejiang Province. He is also one of his disciples and Wang Shouren's brother-in-law. Wang Shouren's sister is Wang Shourang. Three years of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty, Jinshi and No. He is a good reader of sages' books. Cao Muwen remembers that Xu Ai should also be a big official now. However, this is also a book I read several years ago, and I can't remember it now, which makes Cao Muwen very depressed. His memory is really declining.
So who is the other one? Cao Muwen thought about it carefully, but did not recall a disciple named Wang Yin. Since one of them was a disciple of Wang Shouren, the other should also be the same. Cao Muwen was puzzled. Maybe he was a guard when Wang Shouren was the governor? However, Cao Muwen's careful look at his expression is also due to his previous professional habits as a detective, which still has a great advantage in looking at people. Although this man is slightly tall, he doesn't look like a martial arts man. Looking at his expression, he is slightly arrogant. In his words just now, it seems that he is not Wang Shouren's disciple. Is it also a follower of him?" Cao Muwen thought so, but if it was really the so-called "follower" it would be very different from mine. How can it be so horizontal?
"Oh, I've met Mr. Wang." Cao Muwen is puzzled, but it's all right. Say hello to the person first. Wang Yin also returned the bow, and the four continued to walk together. Wang Shouren said at this time, "Wang Yin! You are still a little arrogant. Although he is very good by nature and understands very quickly, if his nature can be a little slower and still, he will be more powerful. Wang Shouren did not blame, but said it a little more easily.
Arrogant? Wang Yin? This suddenly reminded Cao Muwen. He looked at Wang Yin and looked at this face as if he was familiar. Wait! Wang Yin? Cao Muwen suddenly realized, "This Wang Yin should be the future Wang Gun!"
This Wang Yin was the name used by Wang Gan, the famous founder of the Taizhou School in the future. Wang gen was originally named Yin, and Wang Shouren changed his name to gen for him, and his name was Ruzhi, and his name was Xinzhai. A native of Anfengchang, Taizhou, known as Wang Taizhou. Cao Muwen remembers that at first, he devoted himself to Wang Shouren's family only to survive, and then changed his studies through Wang Shouren's enlightenment, and founded the Taizhou School of learning to inherit Yangming Xinxue. And now, since Wang Xuan is still called Wang Yin, it seems that although he has followed Wang Shouren, he should not have officially entered the house. I remember that he also threw himself to Wang Shouren only to survive. I guess it is this time. Cao Muwen thought so, it seems so, but today he was able to meet the three most famous people of "Yangming Xinxue". I didn't expect that his luck has always been so good recently.
