Chen Jian

Chen Jian (1497-1567), whose name is Tingzhao, was born in Dongguan County, Guangzhou Prefecture, Guangdong Province. He is from Dongguan. In the year of 23, he was the first to supplement his disciples. He was elected in 1528. In the next two examinations, both of them won the vice-president's list, and were awarded the Jiaoyu of Houguan County, Fujian Province. At that time, they were 36 years old. During his term of office, he discussed the similarities and differences between Zhu and Lu with Pan Huang, made the second edition of the chronicle of Zhu and Lu, discussed Li Dongyang's Xiya Yuefu with Bai Ben, and made the second volume of the general examination of Xiya Yuefu. Jiang Yida, the supervisor, ordered the collation of notes to the thirteen classics, which was completed and promulgated by the imperial court. At the end of his seven-year term, he moved to Linjiang, Jiangxi Province as a professor of Fuxue. He compiled Zhouzi Quanshu and Cheng's posthumous writings.

Character experience

During the two terms of office, he was employed as the local examiners in Jiangxi, Guangxi, Huguang and Yunnan. He was promoted to the county magistrate of Yangxin County in Shandong Province and wrote the ancient precepts of primary school. In the 23rd year of Jiajing (1544), he was 48 years old when his mother was old. After returning home, he was determined to write and lived in seclusion. In the 27th year of Jiajing (1548), Zhu Lu's annals was revised into four parts, including 12 volumes. He is also the pioneer in the history of Ming Dynasty. There are also Jing Shi Hong Ci, Ming Dynasty Jie Lu, Gu Jin Zhi Jian, Lan Yu Lu and Chen Shi Wen Shu Lu. Today's biographies are "Xueshe Tongbian", "public security Yaoyi", "Xiya Yuefu tongkao", "Huangming Tongji". Since the fifth year of Longqing (1571), Huangming Tongji has been listed as a forbidden book, so its name is not well known. The "Dongguan county annals" compiled by Jiaqing did not dare to say the word "Chen Jian". Chen Botao compiled the "Dongguan county annals" to establish his biography.

Chen Jianxue's greatest contribution is to clarify the sequence of Zhu Zi's learning thoughts, to explain the differences between Zhu Xue and Lu Xue, and to identify the fundamental errors in Wang Shouren's "the final conclusion of Zhu Zi's old age". In eastern Guangdong, there are Chen Xianzhang, who is known as the school of Xinhui; Zhan Ruoshui, who is known as the school of Zengcheng; and Jianshu, who is known as the school of Dongguan.

After Chen Jian, Liu Hongjian was born in Shijie, Dongguan. Shao Yingyi, Zhang Zong kaoting (referring to Zhu Xi), lecturing in the city, from the tourists, advocated the Ming Dynasty, Chen Jian's learning is very strong. The famous people of Jianghan were all impressed by the book of hung Chien. Gradually tasting the words: "although Kung Fu is both active and static, it must start from the following; although knowledge and action are in one, it must start from the beginning; although conscience can be achieved, it must start from the thorough study of things." He and Chen Guoshi, etc. wrote the book "the differentiation of learning about things", which was handed down for a time. During the Wanli period, it was the power of Hung-chien that made the scholars in eastern Guangdong not fall into the fog of the various schools. Scholars said that Mr. Panshi died in 1987.
