    Chen Jiu nodded when he heard the words, but he seemed to understand. It is really difficult to understand before you reach the realm. Even if the other party tells you the truth, although you know it, you still can't understand it.

    Knowing and understanding are two different things, two different concepts.

    "The first step in Confucianism and Taoism is self-cultivation, so what is the second step?"

    "The second step is to unite the family," he said slowly to Xiaoyu.

    "What is the Qi family? Why the Qi family?" Chen Jiu was puzzled.

    Chao Xiaoyu gently fiddled with a wicker, and then said with his hands behind his back: "Releasing the family is a state. If you want to govern the country, you must first organize the family. How can you talk about governing the country if you can't manage the family? You must know that the word "country" cannot be used together.  together".

    "The so-called harmonizing the family is based on self-cultivation. If a person can cultivate the self and constantly improve himself, then in the process of harmonizing the family, he will constantly look for his own shortcomings and constantly improve them."

    After a pause, Chao Xiaoyu continued: "Only if a person can make his family members work together and live in harmony can he be qualified to govern a country. Otherwise, if he can't even manage his family, how can he talk about governing a country."

    Chen Jiu touched his chin: "Sir, do all Confucian disciples have to join the court as officials?".

    Chao Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, the great Confucian cultivated himself with the help of the imperial court. Managing the country is actually the process of Confucian enlightenment. If he succeeds in governing the country, then the great Confucian can successfully attain enlightenment. If he fails, then naturally  It is the death of the body and the disappearance of the Tao, and the sad exit.¡±

    ¡°Wouldn¡¯t it mean that one¡¯s destiny must be connected with the imperial court, and every move must be controlled by the Emperor, even life and death?¡±

    Chao Xiaoyu smiled softly: "Who says otherwise, but Confucianism in governing a country is the fastest shortcut to enlightenment. There is no one. As long as you can successfully govern the country with your own ideas, your spirit will be sublimated.  With the help of the general trend of humanity, I will achieve enlightenment smoothly."

    A gleam of light flashed in Chen Jiu's eyes: "Doesn't Confucianism have any shortcomings?"

    "Yes, the life span is short, no different from ordinary people, and the attack power is insufficient. Of course, there are also great Confucians with martial arts skills. However, what Confucianism seeks is single-mindedness and a mind free of impurities. The practice of martial arts has become a side door.  , Unless the practitioner has great perseverance, but there is really no such person found so far."

    "What is the next realm?" Chen Jiudao.

    "Actually, you already know."

    "I see?".

    "good".

    Chen Jiu thought for a while, then said: "Is it because the country cannot be governed well?"

    Ignoring Chao Xiaoyu's answer, Chen Jiu murmured: "Confucianism, Confucianism, good Confucianism, if you want to bring virtue to the world, you must first control your country and cultivate your body. If you want to cultivate your body, you must first rectify your mind.  If you want to rectify your mind, you must first be sincere in your intentions; if you want to be sincere in your intentions, you must first develop knowledge, and knowledge lies in investigating things.¡±

    Although Chen Jiu muttered these words to himself, Chao Xiaoyu on the other side was infatuated, and the place was silent for a while.

    A breeze blew through the willows, and the branches hit Chao Xiaoyu's face. Chao Xiaoyu came back to his senses and clapped his hands: "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, these words are wonderful, and they fulfill the true meaning of Confucianism.  Xiaojiu has great talent and will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future, but it is a pity that he was born in this world."

    The voice of the last sentence became weaker.

    Chen Jiu came back to his senses and said, "The student didn't hear clearly what the gentleman's last words were."

    "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Forget it if you can't hear clearly. I have a piece of beautiful jade here that I will give to you. Don't throw it away. You will have some opportunities in the future."

    Chen Jiu found the beautiful jade and felt that it was warm and delicate. Then he smiled and said, "Sir, he is a Taoist. Is it possible that all Taoists like to make mysteries so much?"

    Chao Xiaoyu¡¯s identity as a cultivator is not a secret in the entire academy. Hearing this, he smiled lightly and opened his red lips slightly: "You will know in the future whether this is a mystery or not."

    Chen Jiu put away the beautiful jade, with a faint fragrance lingering on his fingertips: "Sir, what is the next realm?".

    Chao Xiaoyu shook his head: "I don't know."

    "Don't know?" Chen Jiu said in surprise.

    "If you haven't reached that level, you won't know. There's nothing strange about that."

    Chen Jiu touched his head and said, "Sir, does this awe-inspiring righteousness have any other magical uses?"

    Chao Xiaoyu nodded and looked at Chen Jiu's face: "Of course there is. Haoran's righteousness is one of the energies in the world. It is naturally the same as other energies. There is also attack and defense. It's just that your current state is too  Low, can¡¯t do it¡±.

    Looking at Chen Jiu¡¯s regretful eyes, he smiled softly at Xiao Yu: ¡°In fact, Haoran Zhengqi is just an accessory to make it easier for us to understand the realm of Confucianism. You know, even if there is no"With great righteousness, a great scholar can still kill evil spirits with a roar. This is a matter of realm and spirit. In the same realm, or even a higher realm, no one can surpass the great scholar in terms of state of mind."

    Chen Jiu walked slowly to the railing and looked at the swimming fish below: "But how many great scholars are there in this world?"

    "Yes, there is a huge difference between those who cultivate Confucianism and those who naturally understand the realm of Confucianism. Those who cultivate Confucianism are just able to use Haoran's righteousness. As for how much Confucian realm can be understood, it is hard to say. Compared with monks of the same realm  In a fight, although Haoran's righteousness has the effect of increasing the strength, victory or defeat can only be achieved in an instant, and life or death is still uncertain."

    "It's only the great Confucians who can suppress the dynasty, not the cultivators. Is this what you mean?" Chen Jiu asked.

    "Yes, the power of great Confucianism means that even if practitioners can avoid it after being faced with it, they must avoid it. As for you Confucian practitioners, you don't have that kind of realm to crush people to death casually."

    Facing Chao Xiaoyu¡¯s blow, Chen Jiu remained expressionless.

    Chao Xiaoyu on the other side was a little strange. This guy heard that Haoran's righteousness was not as intimidating as imagined, but his mood did not fluctuate at all. It was really unusual.

    There are only two situations where he can be so indifferent. The first is that this guy has another trump card and does not pay much attention to Confucianism. The other is that this guy has the confidence to understand the realm of Confucianism.

    But considering that he is young and has the confidence to comprehend the realm of Confucianism, is this possible?  .

    No matter what Chao Xiaoyu thinks, Chen Jiu doesn't know that his trump card is not his current Haoran righteousness, but his own cultivation method.

    "Why do you teach me, sir?" Chen Jiu said slowly.

    "I suggest you practice martial arts at the same time. Martial arts is not only powerful, it can also change menstrual blood and increase life span. As long as you can make a difference in martial arts, your life span will be worry-free."

    Having said this, Chao Xiaoyu said with a solemn expression: "Did you know that martial arts practitioners are the biggest enemies of Confucianism? Because martial arts cultivate one's body and are not afraid of external forces, naturally they are not suppressed by the awe-inspiring righteousness. Therefore, the great Confucians of all ages only want to  Once they take control of the government, they will spare no effort to suppress martial arts practitioners, so the government suppresses military generals to the extreme. Unless it is a war-torn era, martial arts generals have no chance to stand out."

    Having said this, Chao Xiaoyu said with a smile: "The civil and military elites in the court are fighting fiercely, and the generals are suppressed to the point where they cannot raise their heads. Now is the time for scholars to show their talents. You must seize it."

    Chen Jiu nodded, fighting between civil and military forces was not uncommon in the world in his previous life. No matter which dynasty it was, as long as the wars stopped and the fighting stopped, it would be the world of literati. Military generals were scrupulous by the emperor and suppressed by the great scholars, so they could only stay at home.  .

    "Hey, there are fluctuations of Haoran's righteousness over there. I think another student must have understood it. It's really good to understand. It only takes one day to understand Haoran's righteousness. It will naturally have a bright future in the future." Chao Xiaoyu looked into the distance.

    A smile appeared on Chen Jiu's lips: "Is it difficult to understand Haoran's righteousness?".

    Chao Xiaoyu averted his gaze and rolled his eyes at Chen Jiu: "According to my estimation, it will take at least ten days before someone can get started. Who would have thought that freaks like you two would appear on the first day?"

    "Want to go over and take a look?" Chen Jiu said.

    "That's natural, come with me for a walk." After Chao Xiaoyu's words fell, he was already outside the corridor.

    Chen Jiu curled his lips from behind: "What's so great about knowing Taoism? I can shrink to an inch in the future."

    Saying this, Chen Jiu is actually very envious of the magical power that can be used in such a hurry. This is the only magic weapon for escaping. Unfortunately, Chen Jiu's creation of heaven does not have magical powers and can only be obtained randomly. It is really depressing.  pole.
