First, let's give a real example. Let's talk about a famous student of Zhu in his later years, that is Chen Chun. The man who devoted himself to his career failed several times. But his reputation was very good, so Chen Chun began to associate with local officials and indirectly managed and governed the place. His ideas are advanced and reasonable, and he himself is a studious person.
Chen Chun made many comments and suggestions to local officials, and they really hit the nail on the head. Local officials began to appreciate his ability and invited him to be in power together. In this land of Zhangzhou, many people do nothing every day. If they are lazy, forget it. They are still dishonest and always looking for trouble. Therefore, Chen Chun has formulated a very detailed and severe governance plan to solve this problem.
As a new Confucian, Chen Chun naturally knows a lot of etiquette and culture. Therefore, every time the interests are involved, local officials will come to consult Chen Chun. Then, Chen Chun's positive suggestions and suggestions on this issue have also been affirmed. When there was a drought in Zhangzhou, local officials paid a tribute, but it was useless. After Chen Chun knew it, he instructed them to make another long gift and finally begged for rain. With the development of Neo-Confucianism, these Neo-Confucianism scholars will also be invited to give lectures and spread their ideas.
