In August, Xu Junrenzhu came to supervise Hunan studies again.Chen Gong's father and son and his predecessor, Xuezheng Jiang Junbiao, planned to gather heroes in Hunan and work hard to manage them, which was advocated by all provinces.So I hired Yu and ——————————————— as teachers in the school, and called——returned to train soldiers, and the king was also urged by Chen Gong to abandon his official position and return to his hometown of Liuyang.

In April of this year, after the edict of Dingguo was issued, the king was recommended by Xu Gong, a bachelor, and was recruited. He was seriously ill and couldn't do it. In July, he helped the sick to go to court. Together with Yang Rui, Lin Xu, and Liu Guangdi, he participated in the New Deal and was known as the Four Ministers of Military Aircraft.Those who participated in the New Deal, those of Youkang and Song Dynasty who participated in political affairs, were in fact prime ministers.The emperor wanted to make great use of Mr. Kang, but he was afraid of the queen and dared not carry out his ambition.In the past few months, if the emperor has made inquiries, he has ordered the prime minister's office to deliver an order; if the husband has made a statement, he has written it in the letter he entered.Since the Siqing entered the army, the emperor and Mr. Kang began to have a little understanding, and they were determined to carry out major reforms, but the empress Xi and the thieves and officials were more jealous, and within ten days, the changes had begun.

At the beginning, when the king first entered Beijing, he said that the emperor had no right and that the queen was obstructing the matter, and the king did not believe it. On July 27, the emperor wanted to open the Maoqin Palace and set up an advisor, and ordered the king to draw up an order and send the servants in advance. It is said that there are three dynasties of Kangxi, Qianlong, and Xianfeng. There is a story about Kaimaoqin Temple. The order was found and introduced into the edict. Gai will go to the Summer Palace on the 28th to ask Xi Houyun for his order.When you retreated from the court, you told your colleagues: "Now I know that the emperor really has no power." On the 28th, the people of the Jing Dynasty knew about the Maoqin Palace, thinking that today's decree will be issued, but the death will not be issued, so Yi Yi Knowing that the Empress of the West is incompatible with the Emperor.On the twenty-ninth day, the emperor summoned Yang Rui, and gave him an imperial edict, which said, "The joint position is almost in danger, and I ordered Kang, Siqing and comrades to try to rescue him quickly." No handle, no plan.Among the generals at that time, Yuan Shikai was the only one who had been in Korea for a long time, talking about the reasons of China and foreign countries, and advocating reforms. Jun Mizuo asked the emperor to show kindness and help, hoping for emergency or rescue, and his words were extremely passionate.On the first day of August, Yuan Shikai was summoned to give a special reward to his servant. On the second day of the second day, he was summoned again. On the eve of the third day, the king built the Fahua Temple where Yuan lived, and asked Yuan directly: "What kind of person does the emperor say?" Yuan said : "The holy master of Kuang Dynasty." Jun said: "Do you know about the conspiracy of the Tianjin military parade?" Master, you are only under your feet, and if you want to save your feet, save them." He stroked his neck with his hands and said, "If you don't want to be saved, please go to the Summer Palace and kill the servants, and you will get rich and honor." Yuan Zhengse said sharply: "Why do you think Yuan is like a human being? The Holy Master is the master we work with. The servant and the foot share the same extraordinary encounter and the responsibility of rescue. The servant is not alone. If there is something to teach, the servant is willing to hear it." Jun said. : "Rong Lu conspired, all in the military parade in Tianjin, and the three armies of Dong and Nie are under the control of Rong, and they will use their strength to do great things. Although Dong and Nie are insignificant, the only healthy people in the world are only one step. If there is a change From now on, use one army to fight against the other two armies, protect the Holy Lord, restore the power, rule the side of the Qing Dynasty, and suspend the court. If the command is determined, it will be an eternal career." Yuan said: "If the emperor gallops into the servant camp during the military parade, he will pass the number Now, if we punish treacherous thieves, then the servant will be able to do everything in his power to save him after the gentlemen." The emperor said: "Your honor and wealth are very generous, how can you treat me?" Yuan smiled without saying a word, and a certain member of the Yuan Mufu said: " The Rong thief is not someone who sincerely waits to comfort the commander. In the past, a certain man wanted to increase the comfort of the commander. Rong said: "The Han people cannot pretend to be a great military power." Gai has always been a fan. For example, Hu Jinggui participated in the impeachment of the commander-in-chief the year before last. Hu Nairong's private , Rong sent him to impeach the Commander-in-Chief, but he has investigated and dealt with Zhao Xue as a favor. After that, Hu immediately released the Ningxia prefect and promoted Ningxia Dao. This is where Rong's thieves have extremely ingenious schemes. Doesn't the Commander-in-Chief not know about it?" Junnai said : "Rong Lu is a stubborn man, a reckless talent, and a peerless hero. It may not be easy to treat him." Yuan looked at him angrily and said, "If the emperor is in the servant camp, punishing Rong Lu is like killing a dog's ears." The rules are very detailed. Yuan said: "The guns and gunpowder in the camp today are all in the hands of the honorable thieves, and the officials in the camp are mostly old people. The matter is urgent. If a policy is made, the servants must return to the camp and choose generals." Officials, but try to stockpile ammunition, that's fine." Nai Dingning left.At that time, the night of the third day of August leaked three times.On the fifth day of the first day, Yuan Fu summoned him, and on the sixth day of the first day, the change took place.

At that time, Yu Fang visited Jun's residence, sat on the couch, and made some drawings, but the report of the arrest of Nanhai Pavilion suddenly arrived, and after hearing the order from the curtain, Jun calmly said: "If you want to save the emperor in the past, there is no way to save it; Now I want to save Mr., but there is nothing I can do. I have nothing to do but wait for my death! Although the world knows that it cannot be done, I will try to visit Mr. Ito at the Japanese embassy. Please call the Shanghai Consul to save Mr. Yan .” Yu Shi stayed overnight at the Japanese embassy.Jun Jingri did not go out to wait for the arrester. If the arrester did not arrive, he would enter the Japanese embassy tomorrow to meet Yu and persuade him to travel eastward. Yan said: "If there are no walkers, there will be no plans for the future; if there will be no dead, there will be no rewards for the Holy Lord. Life and death in the South China Sea are uncertain. Cheng Ying, Chujiu, Yuezhao, Xixiang, I and my feet share the responsibility. "So I hugged each other and said goodbye.On the 7th, 893rd day of the lunar month, Junfu and the chivalrous men conspired to rescue the emperor, but they failed.On the tenth day of the lunar new year, he was arrested.One day before he was arrested, several generations of Japanese people with lofty ideals tried to persuade you to travel eastward, but you refused to listen, and then the four were strong. The king said: "The reforms of all countries are all formed by bloodshed. There is no one in China who bleeds because of reforms. The reason why this country is not prosperous is also. If there is, please start with your heirs." The death will not go, so it will be difficult.Since the king was in prison, he wrote a poem on the prison wall, saying: "Wangmen lodges and thinks of Zhang Jian. I endure death and wait for Dugan for a while. I smile to the sky from the sword and go to save my liver and gallbladder." Gai Nian Nanhai also.Beheaded in the city on August 13th, there are three in the Spring and Autumn Period.On the day of righteousness, there were tens of thousands of spectators, and Jun's generous demeanor changed a lot.At that time, the minister of military aircraft resolutely supervised the execution, and the king said just before, "I have a word." He didn't listen when he just went, but he killed it calmly.Woohoo, strong!

The gentleman has a unique nature, he can see everything in his studies, and he takes daily innovation as his purpose, so he has no stagnation, and he is good at self-denial and obedience to others. Therefore, his learning progresses every day, and if he does not see each other every ten days, then the discussion of knowledge will be inevitable. There is growth.As a young man, he used to study textual research, annotations, inscriptions on gold and stone, and ancient poetry and diction. He also liked to talk about ancient Chinese art of war. After the age of thirty, he discarded them all.There is experience in studying Western and Western astronomy, Gezhi, politics, and history.I also studied the religion of my heart, when I met Yu Chu when I was a king, I highly respected the teaching of Yezi's universal love, but I didn't know that there was a Buddha, and I didn't know that there was a Confucius. After hearing the meaning of "Yi" and "Spring and Autumn" invented by Mr. Nanhai, I was poor. The order of Datong and Taiping embodies the essence of Qianyuan's unification of the sky, and it will be greatly admired.He also heard the saying of Hua Yan Xinghai, and realized that the world is immeasurable, the body is immeasurable, there is no one without self, there is no going and no staying, there is no dirt and no purity, and there is no reason to do anything other than save people.Hearing Xiangzong's theory of Zhilang, and realizing that the roots of all living beings are immeasurable, so the teachings are immeasurable, all kinds of differences, and the principle that there is no hindrance to roundness, it will be more beneficial.Naturally, it suddenly penetrates, can integrate all dharmas into one, can develop one dharma into ten thousand, without any hindrance, and the bravery of doing things will also increase.In his first year as an official in Jinling, he searched day and night for the books of Confucianism and Buddhism. There is a layman in Jinling, Yang Wenhui, who has read the teachings and vehicles, and is familiar with the stories of Buddhism. He takes the circulation of classics as his duty.You travel with him from time to time, because you can see the Tripitaka all over the place, and your gains become more and more profound.Most of his academic purposes can be found in the book "Ren Xue", and scattered in the book on learning with friends.In addition to the book "Ren Xue", there are two volumes of "Liao Tian Yi Tu Wen", two volumes of "Mang Cang Cang Zhai Poems", one volume of "Yuan Yi Tang Collection of Foreign Languages", and one volume of "Xing Suan Xue Yi", which have been completed. carve. One volume of "Siwei's Good and Bad Table Short Book", ten chapters of "Zhuang Fei Lou Governance", four volumes of "Autumn Rain Nian Hua Guan Cong Shu Shu", one volume of "Jian Jing Yan Ge", one volume of "Yin Lu" and "Yin Lu" "Ren Xue" are all hidden in the rest.There are also dozens of political theories, which were found in "Xiang Bao", and dozens of books on learning and affairs with teachers and friends. Several volumes of Tan Liuyang's posthumous works.In his book "Benevolence", he first chooses the ones that are a little easier, and prints it in "Qing Yi Bao" to make it public.Jun Pingzhu has no hobbies, holds his bow neatly, and has an air of autumn and solemnity on his face.no children.His wife, Li Guo, is the founding director of the China Women's Association.

The theory says: The deeds of rebirth are upright and upright, shaking the sky and shaking the earth, everyone knows it, so regardless of what he has learned: since the Tang and Song Dynasties, he has studied the small Confucianism, favored his theory, slandered the Buddha and destroyed the Dharma, It is insignificant, but the Dharma at the end of the Sindan period has been popular. For hundreds of years, people in the sect have indulged in the Hinayana, and it is common to fall into it. Talents of dragons and elephants are rarely heard.Little did he know that the Mahayana method, the dual cultivation of compassion and wisdom, and Confucius' righteousness of benevolence and wisdom are like two claws.Only wisdom also knows that the world is beyond the world, there is no such thing as a pure land, that is, people are me, there is no such thing as sentient beings, there is no pure land outside the world, and there is no self outside the sentient beings, so we have to sacrifice our lives to save sentient beings.The Buddha said: "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?" Confucius said: "Who will go with me if I am not a disciple of the Si people? There is a way in the world, and it is not easy for Qiu." Therefore, wisdom is benevolence.Since he thinks about saving all living beings, there must be a way to save them. Therefore, Confucius’s "Spring and Autumn" is a system of Datong and Xiaokang. Its thousands of threads are all for the world and for all living beings. Apart from this major matter, there is no other matter.Huayan's Bodhisattva practice, the so-called vow not to become a Buddha, the meaning of the Three Times in "Spring and Autumn", saving the sentient beings in the past, saving the sentient beings in the present, saving the sentient beings in the present, and saving the sentient beings in the future, the method is different and not different; The way to save the living beings in this land is different from the way to save the living beings in that land; the way to save the living beings in the whole world is different from saving the living beings in a country or in one person: the only consciousness of the Xiangzong is also .Because the roots of all living beings are different, so the sayings are different, but the actual law is the same.Since there is no pure land, and there is no ego, then there is nothing to desire, nothing to hinder, nothing to be afraid of, and I do not love the Pure Land and I. How can there be any interest, reputation, praise, ridicule, suffering and joy that can move one's heart?Therefore, Confucius said no worry, no confusion, no fear, and Buddha said no fear, that is, benevolence, wisdom and courage.Those who understand this can travel freely, can be born, can go to death, can be benevolent, and can save sentient beings.
