"Forehead……"
Zhao Xin couldn't help but be stunned. Neo-Confucianism is not good, it will be condemned by everyone in the future. Although not all those who condemn it understand what Neo-Confucianism is about.
But on final thought, it seems that this Neo-Confucianism has nothing to do with Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism.
So he smacked his lips and said, "Okay, let's just study science."
"However, this only resolves its internal contradictions and still cannot explain the questions I raised earlier."

What makes people human is that they can know good and evil, and can abandon evil and follow good through education. Moreover, people should not only educate others to abandon evil and follow good, but also tame all things to abandon evil and follow good.

To do good and avoid evil, one must investigate things.
The purpose of studying things is to understand the nature of things. Understanding the nature of things can help people cultivate themselves and gain knowledge, and can also help people use the good and suppress the evil of things.
How about this explanation?"
