There are a few changes about Wangshouren's main tenet during the process of giving lectures. because of the reason that Wangshouren give lectures changed to different disciples, so every student had his different opinion and comprehension do Wangshouren's learning, which is the main reason that Wangshouren's disciples had occurred a difference. In the thinking field of later-Ming, there had occurred a furious argument surrounding the problem of "the Heart is no Goodness and Badness or not", and how to cure the harm of the Xinxue also had become a key issue to the two sides of argument. The donglin school that Guxiancheng was its delegates made a contest with the Xinxue's scholars that Zhourudeng and Guanzhidao were that delegates, which evolved surrounding that issue that "the nature is Good" and "the Heart no Goodness and Badness". In these arguments, the two sides often persist on their own opinions, but hadn't a right understanding for Wangshouren's original meaning. Liujishan and Huanglizhou thought that the meaning of the words "the Heart no Goodness and Badness" was that the Heart have no the intention of Goodness and Badness, not that the Nature was no Goodness and no Badness. So that the opinion of "the Heart no Goodness and Badness" was not the main idea of Wangshouren. Wangji hadn't got the whole meaning of the Four Sentences. Liujishan and Huanglizhou wanted to make a new explaination to Wangshouren's ideas according to literatures and theory.

A general idea and the structure of Wangshouren's philosophy is intimately associated with "Daxue". Systemicity of Wangshouren's Xinxue stand on the basis of a mind, intention, innate knowledge and things. "Daxuewen" is a series of a process of gongfu. It stand on the basis of a mind, intention, innate knowledge and things, same as Four-Sentence Teaching. Wangshouren's gongfu theory of "Daxue" changes from gewu to chengyi, from chengyi to zhizhi again. It is deepening of Wangshouren's philosophy and is the change of education. It is also that Wangshouren's gongfu theory internalize anything. He spent his younger life in pursuit of Zhuxi's gewu. Through a lecture of LongChang, Wangshouren's gongfu theory of "Daxue" changes from extroversion to introversion. According to Wangshouren' opinion, "Daxuewen" is the tenet of the XinXue, same as Four-Sentence Teaching.
